Andrea Empire, the border gate of Great Stream City, a woodland cabin in the west.
An old man was sitting in the small courtyard outside his house, watering the flowers with a handmade wooden kettle. He seemed to be in a good mood.
"Teacher Najib!" An imperial border patrol stopped on the path outside the house. The leader dismounted from his horse and trotted into the courtyard.
"Oh! Lloyd, are you here?"
"Yes, teacher!" The general took the wooden kettle from the old man's hand and helped him water the flowers. At the same time, he shouted to his subordinates, "You go back to the checkpoint first. I want to accompany the teacher to collect herbs!"
"Yes!!" The patrolling soldiers got back on their horses and left along the road in neat lines.
While Lloyd was watering the flowers, the old man returned to the room and took two medicine baskets. When he was almost watered, he said with a smile: "That's enough, let's go!"
"Yes!" Lloyd took the medicine basket, carried it on his back at the same time as the old man, tied the horse to the door, and followed the other man along the mountain road into the woods.
The old man entered the woods and walked as fast as flying. The complex terrain was no obstacle to him.
Lloyd chased after him. Although he was not thrown away, it was quite difficult to follow.
When they reached the top of the mountain, the old man stopped. His face was not red, he was not panting, and his breathing was even. However, Lloyd was panting, sweating profusely, and was extremely tired.
"You are making rapid progress, but you are still far from what I want!" The old man said with a smile, "You must practice harder!"
"Teacher, I will work hard! I will never let you down!" Lloyd replied quickly.
As an Imperial Border Guard Officer, he was lucky.
Because in this desolate border, I unexpectedly met Teacher Naji who lived in seclusion here.
Although Mr. Nagi is not well-known, he is a real hermit master. It seems that when he was young, he fought side by side with the brave Julius against the Demon King's army. Later, he quit the brave team early due to some misunderstandings. At that time, the brave Yuri
Not many people know about Us, let alone Mr. Nagi, who left the team very early. The brave Julius has never mentioned this teammate to the outside world. Unexpectedly, Lloyd was lucky enough to meet him, and even got to be
An opportunity for Teacher Najib to guide you in your cultivation.
When he first arrived here, Lloyd's strength was stuck at the peak of the fifth level and could not break through. After receiving the guidance of Teacher Naji, he has successfully entered the sixth level and is considered one of the strongest players in the country.
Under the guidance of Teacher Naji, he wanted to break through the seventh level as soon as possible, or even reach the eighth level, and become the strongest in the empire.
Teacher Naji always went back to collect medicine and took some time to teach him how to practice combat skills.
It was the same today. Although he was extremely tired, Lloyd followed Mr. Nagy and started looking for herbs and collected them carefully.
Because standing on the highest mountain peak on the border, you can clearly see the surrounding scenery.
While collecting herbs, I suddenly found an army appearing at the Nangris Pass in the west, advancing towards the Empire Pass.
Lloyd thought he had seen it wrong. He rubbed his eyes, blocked the sun with his hands and looked into the distance. He discovered that there was really a monster leading the team in the direction of Nanglis checkpoint, led by Polacon, various beasts and monsters, goblins, and giant eagles.
The strange team formed is marching forward in this direction.
"What's going on? Where did Nangris get the courage to send troops to our checkpoint?" Lloyd was quite surprised.
The old man Najib, who was collecting herbs, also stopped and looked curiously at the army in the distance.
"Teacher Najib, there is an emergency military situation!" When such an emergency occurred, Lloyd did not dare to stay, and quickly turned around and said, "As a border defense officer, I must return to the checkpoint as soon as possible, organize defense, and repel the enemy! Look.
Today I can’t accompany you to collect medicines, nor can I practice with you, please forgive me!”
"It doesn't matter!" Najib nodded, "This is your duty, go ahead!"
"Yes!" Lloyd didn't dare to delay, turned around and ran down the mountain without hesitating for a moment.
After he left, Najib looked at the army, as if he noticed something, and frowned slightly: "This terrible momentum... There is something terrible in it! I live in seclusion in such a remote place, and I still encounter such trouble...
…”
Lloyd ran all the way down the mountain. Fortunately, the beast army was far away and he had enough time.
He mounted his horse and ran quickly, quickly returned to the checkpoint, and immediately issued an order to directly activate the defensive magic circle, and sent people to Bach, the capital, to report the matter to His Majesty the Emperor.
The checkpoint defenders quickly prepared and stood ready.
Finally, the beast army arrived nearby and stopped five or six kilometers away from the checkpoint.
Unlike the Snow Queen, the team here was led by the eleventh-level Frost Deer in human form. It did not attack directly and use crushing magic to destroy the checkpoint defenders. Instead, it first shouted to the opponent: "Andrea Empire Border Defense
Army, listen, I have been ordered by my master to declare war on the empire in the name of the rebel army. I don’t want to hurt innocent people! Please open the gate of the level immediately and come out to surrender! If you resist to the end, we can only completely wipe out all of you, leaving no one behind!"
Lloyd heard the call and responded loudly on the city wall: "I am the Imperial Border Guard and I coexist with this checkpoint! I advise you to withdraw your troops immediately and do not continue to move forward!"
Frost Deer shouted twice more to persuade Lloyd to surrender, but was rejected both times.
So he changed his attitude: "I have already given you a chance. Since you are unwilling to seize it, there is nothing you can do! Next, I will destroy this level and kill anyone who resists!"
As soon as the voice fell, a fire ant quickly stepped forward.
A battle of this scale does not require the eleventh-level monsters to personally take action. They are only responsible for supervising the battle. The ninth-level fire ants are enough!
The magic circle has been activated at the level, and Lloyd did not dare to be distracted at all, concentrating on being ready to fight at any time.
As expected, the fire ants use super fire storm, just like the Magic City level, ready to destroy all enemies instantly.
When the terrifying super fire storm appeared, the huge sense of oppression made Lloyd and all the level soldiers have bad thoughts in their hearts. They originally thought that they had a magic circle that could withstand the legendary eighth-level magic, so there was no need to worry. When they saw the super fire storm,
Although they don't know what this magic is, they all feel that the shadow of death is approaching.
A super fire storm falls from the sky and sweeps towards the level.
As expected, the magic circle could not withstand such a terrifying attack and instantly shattered.
At the critical moment, Teacher Naji suddenly appeared and released a more powerful magic circle to protect the entire level.
The super fire storm hit it and lasted for more than ten seconds, but it failed to break through Najib's magic circle and was blocked by him!
Although Najib blocked the magic, he was injured by the terrifying power of Super Fire Storm. After all, he chose to bear it hard and suffered a great loss!
"Teacher Najib!!" Lloyd was startled. After coming to his senses, he quickly ran to the old man's side and nervously helped him up, "Why are you here?"
"There is a terrifying monster on the opposite side that cannot be underestimated!" Najib said seriously, "With your strength, you simply cannot resist it!"
There is one thing he didn't say. This terrifying power is even more exaggerated than the original Demon King's army. Looking at the terrifying magic of the fire ants just now, it is certain that it has at least the ninth level of strength!
