"Hey, hey! Wake up! They're coming out!"
"...Why did so many people come out all at once? Is the competition for the selection ceremony over?"
"Some of them are residents of the Sioux tribe. They were the ones who originally landed on the floating island and later started to help the so-called 'God Envoy'. Now they are also helping to organize and handle this event.
…Wait a minute, something is wrong.”
"Why are they all injured?"
The scene of the tribal warriors being carried out of the stone platform one by one then appeared in the eyes of countless pairs of people who were secretly monitoring the God Envoy's side, and then quickly spread to the ears of everyone in the grassland tribes. The brutal competition
As a result, more and more tribesmen were surprised and clamored. The atmosphere that originally surrounded this grassland under the night also experienced a strange change as the news came out - first, Kilifni
The people of the Yagolan tribe appeared on the grassland near the stone platform for a moment, and then Yagorens, the leader of the Yagolan tribe, swaggered past the stone platform holding a wine bottle, and as the last one was carried out
With the appearance of Mi Si here, the figure of the young clan leader belonging to the Zhuang Si clan also appeared in front of Duan Qing and others with several clan members: "...Thank you for your hard work."
"Ah, it's okay, it's okay." He waved his hands to send away the figure of several people carrying Mi Si away from here. Duan Qing simply regarded the other party's words as saying to himself: "It's just a false alarm, everyone's life is
No worries."
"The test of Lord God Envoy is really harsh." He breathed a sigh of relief, and Yasi, who had his hands behind his back, naturally raised his head and looked up at the night sky high above: "No one can escape unscathed... Could it be?
The Lord God Envoy took action himself?"
"It would be great if that's the case. I can guarantee that they won't even get hurt." Duan Qing answered with helplessness and pointed forward: "Of course, the result of failure will not change.
.”
"That is to say, the selection ceremony this time has ended?" He put away his gaze looking up at the floating island above, and Yasi showed a strange smile on his face: "No one can enter the eyes of the divine envoy?
"
"Of course not, there are winners in this round." Duan Qing replied calmly: "But considering the current state of the contestants, the next ceremony may have to be postponed until a long time later."
"Very good, I hope to see a more exciting duel by then." Still maintaining a deliberate smile on his face, Yasi turned around with his hands behind his back: "I look forward to the start of your next selection ceremony."
"With such a competition method, our progress will naturally be much faster than yours." Duan Qing seemed to understand what the other party was implying at this time, and Duan Qing also nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, if we really
If you want to take a vacation——"
"We will visit your place often."
Unlike Yasi, who came here openly and honestly, the other tribes on the central grassland did not continue to contact Duan Qing and the divine envoys behind him at this time, and except for Misi, the remaining tribal warriors remaining here
They also did not expose their identities for this reason - except for the leaders of the Zhuang Si tribe like Mi Si who were very obvious in front of everyone, most of the tribal warriors who came to participate in the selection ceremony had not been in the past.
During this period of time, they showed too many connections with the other tribes in the central grassland, and based on their usual behavior and their introductions in the exchanges and conversations, they seemed to also have close ties with the other small tribe warriors who participated in the selection ceremony.
There is no difference. However, now that a large number of eliminated people have appeared, the disguise of identity seems to have lost a certain meaning. Some of the tribal warriors even took advantage of this night to quietly leave this place and silently returned to where they were.
In the embrace of the tribe. The remaining seriously injured people did not leave the tent camp around Shitai. The figures gathered together with the idle grassland tribesmen who had been staying here seemed to become a little more free and easy.
They didn't care about their failure or serious injuries. They just raised their wine glasses and happily collided with others: "Cheers! Wahahahaha!"
"You will never imagine what kind of enemy we are fighting this time! They are indeed very powerful, but we are never afraid!"
"We used the bodies of hundreds of people to withstand the onslaught of tens of thousands of cavalry! We even killed many of them, hahahaha! Not a single one of us died!"
"It's a pity that our duel ceremony journey ends here - well, what a pity. I originally wanted to meet the Lord God Envoy, and then come back and brag to you..."
"Is it my imagination?"
Walking among the tents that were also brightly lit and extremely lively, Duan Qing looked at the scene and touched his nose unconsciously: "The relationship between these guys seems to have gotten better?"
"Of course the relationship between comrades and robes, who have fought together to kill the enemy and experienced life and death, will become better." Following Duan Qing with her hands clasped together, Ciyu Ninglan replied in a light voice: "And now everyone has failed.
Since both identities and statuses have become the same, there will naturally be no barriers when communicating."
"But according to my past experience, losers will either leave in despair, or turn into a sour orange." Duan Qing curled his lips, and then sighed inexplicably: "Probably only
These men on the grassland, who have been shaped like this by the wind all day long, can have such a temperament."
"Ninglan is very envious of such a temperament. He doesn't pay much attention to victory or defeat, life and death, and only pursues each other's glory and goals wholeheartedly." Ninglan smiled and nodded her head: "If you have such a warrior,
Isn’t it a blessing for you to become your assistant?”
"They are not here to pursue me, they are here to pursue the so-called 'God's Envoy'." Duan Qing lowered his voice as much as possible and then temporarily hid his face while walking among the tents and grasslands.
: "Violet's reputation is not my reputation. They will not listen to me, not to mention that Violet's own existence is also false."
"Once the problem with the identity is discovered, the entire grassland tribe will go crazy - sir, you are worried about this, right?" Ninglan, who was following Duan Qing, replied with a full voice: "It's all over.
After such a long time, I must have thought about how to deal with it, right?"
"But plans are always passive, and changes are always rapid." Duan Qing, holding his hands and stopping at the edge of the grassland, turned back and looked at the outlines of the still bustling tents: "Now, there have been too many
Uncertainty factors have been inserted into this event, and I don’t know what the final result will be.”
"Ninglan believes in sir's ability, just as the warriors of these tribes in front of Ninglan believe that they can make a comeback." Ninglan, who raised her hands in parallel, answered with a voice full of confidence: "The selection ceremony has been successful so far.
It’s going very well, everything will definitely get better.”
"Sacred Mountain."
Standing at the dividing line between this temporary settlement and the grassland, Duan Qing looked up at the starry sky with his hands behind his back and then said his next word: "If all the plans are still expected, then
, then there is one thing that has not been determined, and that is the reaction from the Shenshan side."
"Except for the time Violet and Asahi Dongsheng met, there has never been any reaction from the sacred mountain. This is simply impossible for us who have been wreaking havoc on this grassland for so long.
"
His line of sight stopped in a certain direction in the night sky, as if he could see through the dimness there some things behind him that were not in his field of vision: "Considering the existence of those players behind who have not yet taken action, they must also
There must be some big conspiracy brewing."
"Without Violet as a backup, can we take the opponent's next move?"
****************************
Duan Qing's worry is indeed an unavoidable fact, but the so-called fate and coincidence are far from being as simple as he imagined. Just like Mingyue Qingfeng who also brought the news back to him that night, what he thinks
The judgment and decision made obviously brought the inevitable fate in another direction: "What? All those soldiers came back dead?"
"No, he didn't come back from the dead." He hurriedly shook his hand, and the player who came to report lowered his voice again: "They are not players, there is no such thing as coming back from the dead, but they are indeed seriously injured.
state, have now been sent back to their respective clans or abandoned where they were..."
"Great!" Before the other party could finish what he said, Mingyue Qingfeng jumped up from his seat: "Their inexplicable competition finally collapsed? Hahahaha! Good! Good! Very good!"
"It's time to break the stalemate they have created." The words he repeated several times suddenly stopped where he was. The young-looking magician removed the bandage on his face.
Pulling it off: "Punk the illusion of their painstaking efforts! Let them lose all their backers! Then! Then we can catch them all! Traumatize them at will! Especially - that gray-haired magician!"
"If you dare to humiliate me in that way, I will let him die without a burial place." There was an expression of gnashing teeth on his face, and the young magician's eyes also turned red at this time: "I will use blood magic to devour his body.
, and then suck the life out of his body bit by bit, letting him taste the most terrifying pain in this game world!"
"You, do you want to attack the God's Envoy?" The player who came to report showed a nervous expression: "I'm sorry to speak bluntly, but at this time, there are no obstacles to overcome in a blatant attack.
Half past one..."
"Why? Who dares to stop us?" He was answered by Mingyue Qingfeng's sudden wave of the hand and a huge roar that spread throughout the tent: "Is it the Sioux tribe who have only old and weak soldiers left? Or are they those who just want to convert to the sacred mountain?
The Zhuang Si Clan? They will even become our vassal tribe soon! Hahahaha!"
"You know I'm not referring to them." Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, the reporting player lowered his head and continued: "It's the leader and his men..."
"Them? Why would they stand in front of me——"
The words blurted out subconsciously stopped in mid-air, and Mingyue Qingfeng's expression gradually changed from ferocious to dull: "They... they... no, they have no reason to block us."
"The voters who nominally represent the Holy Mountain will not distinguish the difference between the leader and you, the young master. Before the young master was sent to this place, the main work here was done by the leader and his people.
.”
Still lowering his head, the player who came to report gradually sped up his speech and became much calmer: "Since this period of time, the young master should have felt the hostility shown by those on the opposite side. They have never
I take the young master’s existence seriously, and I never really regard the young master as a core figure who can participate in the plan.”
"They just treat the young master as a mascot." Looking at the pair of gradually clenched fists that appeared in the field of vision, the player who spoke inexplicably raised the corners of his mouth: "Even if it was advanced in advance,
That huge plan, the young master and us, the subordinates brought by the young master, have never been included as real implementers by the other party, and have become one of the trusted partners of the Avengers."
"I had already had such an expectation when I was assigned to this place." Taking a deep breath, Mingyue Qingfeng, known as the young master, replied with an uncertain expression: "Since it is a person who was resurrected from the legend,
It is inevitable for an ancient team to instinctively reject outsiders, but if they are acting for common interests and goals, this kind of prejudice and discrimination should be easily overcome..."
"Now is the critical period when the plan is about to take shape, and the opponent seems to be in the weakest state." The player who reported the report immediately spoke again: "The enemy seems to be on the verge of collapse, and victory is within easy reach, even if we do not consider the possible temporary counterattack.
In retrospect, do you think that alliance leader and those under him will give away the upcoming victory and the huge benefits behind it?"
"Don't forget the last promise of the Holy Mountain - whoever wins the position of leader can become the king of the grassland."
Like the last heavy straw, these words that echoed in the tent made Mingyue Qingfeng widen his eyes. His eyes were always red, and he finally took a heavy breath and stepped forward.
The footsteps disappeared little by little in the night wind sweeping inside and outside the tent door curtain.
