"I'm sorry, I don't understand a little bit. You said that the tower that eats the planet and drives out the living races is not the enemy, but the protector. So, who is the enemy?" Tang Shidao felt that things were gradually becoming clearer.
Even if Hu Feng and others were deceived, they at least knew where the tower with the name of the Ancient Pavilion was.
As long as you find these ancient towers, things will become clear.
but.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Tang Shidao, we can't believe what you said." Hu Feng turned on the instrument and recorded and transmitted the situation here. The tiger planet immediately received the news and spread it to various departments to prepare for the enemy: "I transmitted your
News of your visit, everyone on the ground can now see you, and the mage team is also preparing for battle. Please identify yourself, otherwise, we will consider resorting to force."
"Very courageous." Tang Shidao smiled.
"We have no retreat, we can only fight to the death." Hu Feng seemed to know that he was outmatched, but would rather die than retreat.
Try to delay as much time as possible.
Waiting for the mage team to gather and come over.
The other soldiers were the same. They were very scared, but they mustered up the courage to fight. There was a feeling that they had anticipated this day and were ready to die. Combined with Hu Feng's words, it can be imagined that their situation was not good. It was a terrible situation.
A go-anywhere attitude.
"Your Mightiness……"
"I'm waiting for your mage team to come over. They are here, you are more confident, right?" Tang Shidao interrupted with a smile.
This sentence made everyone even more shocked.
The more emboldened the enemy is, the worse the situation will be.
ground.
All the people watched the news, including the assembled battle mages. They felt chilled in their hearts, but when the enemy came, no matter how strong or weak they were, they could not retreat and could only fight to the death. Soon, they teleported and teleported, flashed and flashed again, one after another.
Rushed to the large teleportation array. Before heading to the outer realm, they all cast defensive spells, effect spells, shelter spells and enhancement spells.
Some people even cast the spell of suspended animation.
at the same time.
Each fleet of airships has entered a state of war, and all transport ships are also starting up, preparing to lead the people to evacuate. At this moment, the entire planet is in 'motion'. It seems that after countless exercises, they are all preparing to face the worst
Situation: The mage is defeated, the fleet collapses, the planet falls, and the soldiers desperately cover the evacuation of the people!
In less than half a minute, the mage team teleported as a group and entered the outer space battlefield.
Hundreds of thousands of mages resist one person.
on the ground.
Some lower-level mages who cannot physically enter space are also setting up formations, preparing to buy more time after the 'defeat'.
"Yes, you seem to be well prepared." Tang Shidao couldn't help but admire the situation on the ground.
It stands to reason that it is not difficult for a group of people to do this.
Everyone is like this, including the elderly and children. So many simulations and exercises.
"Your Excellency has won, please let the civilians go. They are no threat to you." The mage team teleported over. The leader was an old man with a tiger head and a human body. Its strength is very strong, and it is already considered the pinnacle here.
, the limit of 100 million mana.
However, it has not yet entered the holy realm.
The rest of the characters include tigers, bears, pigs, and deers, most of them are animal-headed people, and a very few are human.
From the looks of them, they get along quite well.
"I have some questions to ask." Tang Shidao first expressed his intention.
"Your Mightiness……"
"I know it is difficult to gain trust and it takes a lot of time. However, I don't want to waste time dealing with you. So, I will try another method." Tang Shidao raised his hand, stretched out his finger, and pointed at a star next to the Tiger Clan's Star Clan.
Abandoned industries poison the planet.
Everyone is confused.
Tang Shidao's finger flashed, and instantly, a line of light penetrated the planet.
The next second.
Countless beams of light erupted from the abandoned poisonous planet. In the blink of an eye, the entire planet collapsed and disintegrated, turning into mist-like stardust that vibrated and dissipated. At this moment, everyone on the Tiger Planet was dumbfounded. Do you want to run away?
Haha. With this kind of ability, let alone assisting people to escape, even if everyone puts their hands on the ignition button and starts flying by pressing it, no one can escape.
"Everyone, stop." The leader of the old man signaled, and then said: "It's useless, don't move. If we can compress the 'Divine Light' spell into a line, we will die if we join forces."
"but……"
"There are no buts. Even if an ordinary divine light shines, less than half of us will survive. Your Majesty, we will not start a war. We hope that your Majesty will be merciful and let the elderly and children go. If you have other requests, please feel free to say,
We will definitely give what we can. But regarding the ancient tower, please forgive me, we have no comment."
"Even if it means death?" Tang Shidao smiled.
"Everyone will die, and we also envision such a day." The old tiger man nodded.
"what's your name?"
"Oh...I am Hu Xian, the chief mage of the tiger planet." The old man who called himself Hu Xian gestured with his hands, feeling that the 'enemy' did not have such great malice.
"Have you ever heard of Holy Land Mage?"
"Have you never heard of him? He is a historical figure?"
"It's a level of mage." After hearing this, Tang Shidao understood why Hu Xian did not enter the holy realm: "Forget it, let's not mention this, I want to ask some questions. Don't worry, I won't force you to answer the ancient question.
The matter of the Pagoda Tower."
"Thank you." Hu Xian handed over.
"First of all, the first question is, you are preparing to fight, who is the enemy?" Tang Shidao asked.
"This... we don't know. It's not that we hide it, but we really don't know the origin of the enemy. They have been invading our territory throughout history. Rumor has it that many places have been wiped out by them. However, most places
They all insist on confrontation."
"Describe it."
"Our enemies? Well, they are a kind of half-mechanical and half-living objects. I don't know whether they are life or demons. There are many of them, and they can eat flesh and metal at the same time. So, whether it is us or the demons produced by the tower,
Yes, they can all be eaten.”
"You mean, in addition to the life race and the tower, there is a third kind of enemy?" Tang Shidao was a little stunned.
"Well... we don't think the tower is an enemy. Because the golem army in the tower will not attack us. They just need resources to make golems to fight against those half-machine, half-life monsters. The tower itself will attack life, because...
...Well... Although it is embarrassing, I will not hide my respect for you. My ancestors once said: The tower does not trust us. Because the life race once betrayed the tower, and some people took refuge in those monsters and destroyed the tower from the inside.
tower."
"Then, the tower added the function of killing life?"
"Yes. It's really shameful. The tower was designed to help us from the beginning. However, some of us took advantage of its loophole of not killing lives, took refuge in the monsters, and helped the monsters kill the tower. After a period of betrayal, the tower finally increased the number of kills.
It has the function of killing life, but the golem army is still the same: it does not kill life. Seriously, now the tower is at war with the monsters, we are just watching the fun." Hu Xian looked ashamed.
"That's it." Tang Shidao understood why these people were not hostile to the tower.
The real enemy is the half-mechanical, half-living monster.
They are the invaders.
Think about it.
The tower only eats planets but not life, and the debris is left for humans to be self-sufficient. Even if the debris gathers over time, the planet may be re-formed.
"What's going on with the golem army attacking the mage?"
"Well, there is such a setting. But, we are not sure why. It is probably that those monsters like to search for magic energy, so the tower is the first to destroy it. As long as the tower destroys the magic-rich place, the monsters that successfully invade
They can't be found. Your Majesty may not know that a small number of those monsters have invaded the wreckage area, but the number is not large."
"So there are still towers fighting in the wreckage area. They are not to deal with life, but to deal with those monsters?"
"right."
At this time, Hu Xian and everyone relaxed a little.
They found an obvious signal. The 'Master Tang Shidao' in front of them did not like those monsters, and he had a clear feeling of disgust when they mentioned them. It is very likely that this mage just didn't know the role of the tower and mistakenly thought that the tower was the enemy.
.
"still have a question."
"Please tell me."
"The towers will attack each other, what's going on?"
"Well... to be honest, we have argued this question no less than a hundred million times, and we are still arguing about it every day. Your Majesty, please forgive me, we don't have an answer. However, we have a conjecture." Hu Xian bowed his head.
"you say."
"We speculate that monsters can also build towers."
"Huh? It seems to make sense."
"According to what we know, no matter how large or small the puppet army is, they will definitely not attack the living race. Therefore, it is harmless to the living race if the towers attack each other. If a high tower attacks a high tower, it is most likely that the high tower will attack the living race.
They don’t belong to the same camp, and the monsters are also building towers. Because some people have taken refuge with the monsters, they may have taken away the technology. Even some of the technology from the breached tower fell into the hands of the monsters.”
"In order to protect the living species, the tower even killed its own side?"
"Yes, that's what we think. Because a war between towers is not good for the monsters, and it is not good for the towers, but it is only good for our living race. If we put it more meanly, if all the monsters die, the towers
If all of them die, our life race will completely become the overlord. Do you understand our feelings? The tower is our savior, but in terms of setting, even if they defeat the monsters, one day..."
"They will also kill each other, leaving only the living race."
"Yes, they will 'suicide' and weaken like this, and we will benefit for nothing and win everything for nothing." After Hu Xian said this, his expression became more determined. It can be seen that in their minds, the tower is a hero.
Heroes who protect everyone. And these heroes will not take credit. When the enemy is gone, they will destroy their own strength and let people reap all the fruits of victory.
Also because of this.
Facing their own enemy, they would rather die than expose the secrets of the tower.
They would rather die than stab someone in the back.
"I want to know what those monsters look like." Tang Shidao was almost ready to see the answer, but there was still one step left.
"Okay, please wait."
Half an hour later.
Hu Feng led the team back to the ground and came up again, bringing with him a huge cage. This cage was covered with incantations, and the material was their most refined product. Inside the cage, eight iron chains inscribed with incantations tightly locked a half-metal head.
Behemoth.
"It's you clowns..." Tang Shidao was slightly surprised.
"Do you know me, sir?" Hu Xian asked urgently.
Everyone looked forward to it, but they never knew the enemy's name.
Tang Shidao understood the 'enemy' when he saw it: "Well, I don't know it, but I know its prototype. It's just a copy, an imitation of a life form. Its prototype is more powerful, no, with limitations.
, you have no way to kill. With the same restrictions, the most you can do is capture and imprison him. By the way, I never thought that the ancient pavilion tower might also be a kind of animal cage."
"Your Majesty, what are the original names of these monsters?" Hu Xian shouted anxiously. They really need a name for their enemy, even a name.
Even if you can't beat it.
At least I can have one more cursed name in my heart.
