The leisurely life and slow pace in the mountain village can easily bring peace to people. The simple emotional expressions of the villagers' singing and recreation between work attract people to get involved.
But in such a comfortable environment, someone's life is not so easy. The fight in the dream, as well as the new tower building rules and new tower building methods, can be said to be a triple squeeze of brain power, physical strength and force. This This life is even more urgent than in the Tower of the Great Sage, as if someone is chasing me from behind.
The pace of life during the Tower of the Great Sage was quiet and leisurely. In addition to stargazing and recording every night, I spent my daytime studying magic, writing dozens of codes for the Mystery version, or re-planning and transformation. Magic Tower. Although there are many things to do and be able to do, there is no urgency.
But after leaving the Magic Tower, Lin knew clearly that his world would never be the same. The urgency of life was not so obvious when he had ample funds. It can even be said that the savings of more than three years are enough to save him. Spend a lot of time.
But the threat posed by those grudges and hatreds, with the loss of the protection of the magic tower, is almost imminent. Whenever a killer appears, or an assassin uses some heretical means, such as poisoning or setting fire, no one calls him It was unexpected. However, someone still didn’t know that there had been several waves of enemies like this. They all had to be cleaned up by the itchy lich.
The fight in the dream is not without any influence on the mind. Lin has become more and more taciturn. When something happens, the avatar of the fat house does not first joke or ridicule, as if he feels uncomfortable all over. As for himself, who was born in a junior high school He is reckless when encountering problems and does things without thinking, but the reasons are all kinds of strange and make people laugh bitterly. The three selves are becoming more and more extreme.
Such a bad situation also affected Lin in reality. He showed ferocious expressions from time to time, frightening the two girls who were following him. However, this situation did not last long, and after two slaps from the lich, it returned to its original state... …
Someone really wants to declare to the outside world that his strength has also improved. But before that absolute gap, he has lost his temper. He can only hide in the corner and feel sorry for himself like a little daughter-in-law who is bullied by her mother-in-law.
In reality, the gulf-like gap between the people around me and myself did not make the two incarnations in the dream show mercy. On the contrary, they complained worse, were more reckless, and killed more ruthlessly.
At the same time, at the Tower of the Great Sage, the appearance of this place was completely different from that of a large barracks half a month ago. Centered on the location where the rift in the plane was expected to be opened, a construction team headed by a magician built a continuous The group of fortresses almost formed an iron cage in the gap between the planes.
As the main force resisting the Abyss, they are the regional coalition forces of the four major divisions of the Magician Association in the Southwest Peninsula of the Lost Continent. Four 500-man regiments are divided into four areas, serving as the first line to block the Abyss's invasion. The second front begins. It is a volunteer army composed of royal armies, noble armies, and even adventurers and mercenaries from all sides, arranged layer by layer and staggered.
The only airship in the southwest peninsula is anchored next to the Tower of the Great Sage. It will circle around at a fixed time every day. In addition to routine drills, it is also available for everyone who gathers here to watch. Come to this most powerful weapon in the southwest peninsula and boost your flagging morale.
The four district branch presidents have already put down their respective branch affairs and are here to sit down. Because many of the people who lead the army here are kings of small countries or local lords. People of this status can be distinguished based on the Xijia distinction alone.
The president of the association, the disciple of Chengguo Eton, cannot be suppressed by a mere great magician.
Although the Magician Association is stronger than any small country and holds considerable power, it is not without checks and balances. At least the four presidents are on equal footing, and Chengguo Eaton can overwhelm the other three with his seniority and age.
One end, but it has not reached the level of a final decision.
When facing the king of secular power, the basic principle of magicians is to respect without interfering too much. This is a standard that magicians apply from top to bottom. After all, the magician association is far from concentrating power.
Far less than the power that a country can control. In essence, the association is just a mutual aid association for magicians.
It’s not like no one has thought about concentrating power and creating a magic empire. And this dream can be considered half successful. In addition to the five superpowers in the world of Mystery, there are also five small powers, located in Mystery.
To the east of the continent, there is a pure kingdom of magicians──the Duke of Crowe exists like this.
There are many reasons why this country of pure magicians cannot become big, but we will not list them for now. All in all, it is very difficult for magicians to gain greater power in the world. This also makes nobles above a certain level treat
The attitude of the magician is that of a group of clowns who can be bought off with money.
'I can't beat you, but I despise you all the same.' This is the attitude of the kings of many countries in the Southwest Peninsula towards the Magician Association. Only the four branch presidents have enough weight in front of these kings to get some
of respect.
Especially this time, the abyss is about to invade the Lost Land. As a resident of the Lost Land, no one can guarantee that they will be able to escape the clutches of the demons. Since they cannot escape, fighting is the only option. All countries and great lords have
Troops were sent here to support. The difference is that some people only sent their cronies, while some people came in person. The same thing is that they are full of complaints...
Why do we have to share the responsibility for the building that the magician stabbed down? This is the common thought in the hearts of most of the nobles who come here.
Because of this complaint and the uneasiness waiting for the official invasion of the Abyss, the morale of this ragtag group of people can only be barely maintained.
For this war, magicians are unshirkable. Even if some people try their best to publicize it, the original tower owner of the Tower of the Great Sage made such mistakes, and even framed him for summoning demons and actively opening the door to the abyss. He should be punished with
Apologize to death.
However, the masters are not blind followers. Some people may covet the wealth of the original tower owner. But if they want to summon the devil and force the original tower owner to plead guilty and be executed, there will be no benefit in his pocket.
.In this case, what is the point of helping the conspirators to slander an innocent person?
Even whether they will be dealt with in the same way in the future. Such worries prevent many magicians from doing such scandalous things as adding insult to injury. In the minds of most magicians, the hidden conspirators are the real ones.
The person who needs to be held accountable. Of course, the resentment towards the original tower owner is not completely gone.
It is this resentment, coupled with the anxiety of the kingdom's army on the outer defense line and the nobles' private army, that is affecting the morale of the magician coalition. In the torture of waiting, they also doubt that they must come here.
What is the reason?
Especially now that the original tower owner has left, a large group of magicians have replaced him to stop the demons who are about to break out of the abyss. This unfairness is also growing in the hearts of the coalition forces.
However, these complaints are about to end, or there will be no time to complain.
Before this, because the Gate of the Abyss was still unstable, low-level little devils would occasionally come through the gap by chance. Those little devils were quickly strangled by the army.
Nowadays, a well-established demon squad is taking advantage of the darkness to crawl out of the cracks in the abyss in order to find a way to break through the defense line.
That's right, those who are lost can peek into the abyss through the cracks, and of course they can also look over from the other side.
In the chaotic and unorganized history of demons passing down word of mouth, it is unheard of for the main plane to be fully prepared before the gate of the abyss is fully opened.
Every time they invaded the Lost Land smoothly, burning, killing and looting everywhere, before the powerful forces of the Lost Land could react, the greedy demons could collect enough treasures and then walk away. Some of them were so greedy that they covered their eyes.
The guy will stay, be punished, and then become a heroic epic joke.
But this time, through the gap in the plane that was about to stabilize, the demons could see that a dense defense line had been built in the world of the main plane.
There are no devil worshipers chanting their names on the opposite side; there are no greedy and ignorant humans who can be easily coaxed by the devil. There are just a group of armies that have been assembled.
In this regard, the demons are not disappointed. The sense of accomplishment gained from lying and succeeding is not necessarily better than killing as much as you want. Especially fragile humans are torn apart under the claws, accompanied by wailing and begging for mercy. That is simply the most wonderful thing.
of nature.
Now that an army has been gathered on the opposite side, the demon lord who first discovered and controlled the gate of the abyss was not so arrogant as to want to complete the invasion of the lost land on his own. He summoned the neighboring demon lords
, whether there is kindness or hatred.
In the end, a large army was gathered and stood guard in front of the gate of the abyss, which was about to be fully opened, waiting for the moment when the war began, and rushed into the Lost Land. Of course, the opponents in this war were not limited to humans, but could also be other demon lords.
It is a natural thing for demons to kill enemies and "comrades" at the same time.
It is natural for demons to have evil intentions. No one will completely trust others. Of course, there are some demons who can trust people, but as soon as they are betrayed, they will usually be the first victims, and they will be lost forever.
opportunity for growth.
The only thing that troubles these demon lords is that the news here has reached the ears of a certain king. The demon king who is always hungry, greedy and selfish, but in this abyss world
of overlord.
When the man personally admitted that he was quite interested in the Gate of the Abyss, a group of warlords, armed with the Grand Lord's instructions, powerfully controlled the assembled demons. They also sent out several waves of smaller spies.
I hope to find out what the weakness is on the other side of the door.
For the cannon fodder and soldiers at the bottom, it doesn't matter who takes command. But for the demon lords, whether they have the right to command is quite different. The difference between chess players and chess pieces is not only who can be easily sacrificed, but also who can be easily sacrificed.
