Royal Capital, Security Department, Huzhong Pavilion.
The voice of Dragon Queen Hilda gradually faded away, and a figure stepped on the lake water and fell into the pavilion in the lake... and came to the front of the Sword Master Riyuro.
"Teacher." Quark, who had just arrived next to the Juggernaut, now had a solemn look on his face: "Do we need to do anything?"
The sword master remained silent.
"teacher?"
Sword Master Riyura breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as the Dragon King Barrier exists, the troops outside the royal capital cannot enter. With the current strength of the Security Department, Imperial Guards and City Defense Team, it is impossible to bring such a large number into the city. It is simply unrealistic for professionals to control it.”
"Teacher! The Queen of the Dragon Clan has added a reward for the championship... The Holy Pool of the Dragon Clan is equivalent to leading directly to the Holy Domain, reaching the sky in one step. These professionals participating in the competition will go crazy. In this way, the Royal Capital will probably..." Quark Frowning: "How could Queen Hilda issue such a ridiculous order?"
"Is it absurd?" The sword master shook his head: "In my opinion, it is not absurd."
"Teacher, what do you mean?"
The Sword Master said quietly: "King Amos has conquered all countries. Although the world is now in a mess, the Kingdom of [Elnis] is also exhausted. It should be the time to rebuild the world, but we have to let one fact come early. Appear."
Quark was stunned for a moment and then said thoughtfully, "You mean...the mainland dragon clan?"
"The fact before our King is that...except for the mainland dragon clan, he has no enemies."
The Sword Master sighed and said: "Perhaps for the most powerful Dragon Queen, the current power is not enough in her eyes. However, if the kingdom is allowed to continue to develop, I think one day, all the people will be able to do it." The power of all humans in the world will one day make the Dragon Queen jealous. Quark, now almost all the power of the new generation is gathered in this royal capital... Do you still think that this national competition is only for Her Royal Highness? Are you willful?"
"Don't you know, Your Majesty?" Quark frowned: "With His Majesty's ability, he shouldn't have thought of this, but why would he still..."
"Who knows."
Sword Master Riyuro shook his head: "No one has ever known the thoughts of our Majesty... Maybe he has never thought about dealing with the Dragon Clan. Maybe he is now content to include the entire world except the Dragon Clan on the mainland. The extent of his palm...maybe, he really loves Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Are we just going to watch like this?"
The Sword Master was silent for a moment, and then said quickly: "Use my decree to mobilize all the security personnel in the city, open the protection points in the city, and protect the people as much as possible... The guards and city defense troops, we Those who cannot be mobilized, the next thing we can do is... within our ability."
"Teacher you?"
"I will stay here for a while." The Sword Master looked at the calm lake, "The time for Jiren to fuse with the Sword Soul Beast is longer than I thought... The ability hidden in his body is probably more powerful than the sky. Ren Mu is even stronger."
Quark subconsciously looked at the lake where countless strong men's broken swords were buried, with a hint of envy flashing in his eyes.
At this time, the Sword Master said abruptly: "The third sword soul beast in the sword tomb should be born soon, but when it matures, I will find a way to graft it for you from Jilian or Tianren Mu.
I want to share the bloodline of the Highlands so that you can also have your own sword soul beast... Quark, you have been following me for these years, I should give you something in return."
"Thank you, teacher!" Quark was so surprised that he knelt down and thanked him.
"Go ahead." The Sword Master waved his hand and said, "Remember, do your best."
Looking at the figure of Quark who had gone away, the sword master sat on the stool in the lake pavilion and silently stared at the calm lake. "This storm is coming much faster than expected. Yamos, you
Are we caught off guard now, or are we prepared..."
…
…
"We're not ready at all!"
Competition venue, second stage venue, first building customs clearance exit.
Dr. Gers frowned at this moment... He looked at the pale Sniff and Tina beside him, and they finally escaped from the examiner's murderous attack by crawling.
Even so, after crawling through this long road of murderous intent, the various resources of the castle trio have been greatly reduced, not to mention their personal sanity, which has been destroyed to the bottom.
Originally, after clearing the first building, the players would be given some rest time so that they could continue the next challenge. Of course, they could also choose not to rest.
The three doctors, Dr. Gers, who chose to rest first, had not sat down for a few minutes when the voice of the Dragon Queen changing the rules of the competition rang out.
"Damn it, if I had known this, we shouldn't have rushed to the first level of the challenge so quickly."
Dr. Gers was quite confused at this time. Not only him, but also the contestants who came out of the first challenge one after another were also confused.
"What should I do?" Tina looked up at him.
Dr. Gers gritted his teeth and said: "No matter... let's meet up with the guy named Luo first and then the storm is about to start. It's not good for us to fight alone!"
…
The first building is on the high platform.
The ordinary-looking young man holding a bone sword glanced at the white-haired Holy Domain mage who had fallen under the high platform, his body already cold, and then slowly stood up.
"You are really wanton enough...Hilda." He smiled lightly and slowly walked down from the steps of the high platform, "Okay, I have collected almost all the materials anyway."
He had just stepped off the high platform, and then jumped into the hall below. At the same time, the motionless body of the white-haired Holy Domain mage under the high platform suddenly shook.
Immediately afterwards, the arm of the white-haired Holy Domain mage suddenly bounced up...
…
…
Almost all the players, whether they were in the second stage or in the knockout stage of the first stage audition... Even those seeded players who had obtained the seed quota early and were the favorites to win the competition, also looked at a loss at this time.
"This is not a joke! This is really not a joke! I saw the orb!"
The orb falling from the sky fell directly into the audition site of the first division. Then, under the gaze of countless eyes, it actually fell in front of a child who came with his family to join in the fun.
The orb did not hit the ground directly, but stopped suddenly, and finally floated in front of the child... The orb exuded a brilliant brilliance.
The child in front of him subconsciously reached out to grab the bead.
"No! Don't touch it!" The frightened scream of the child's father sounded at this moment.
However, the orb has fallen into the hands of this curious child.
He was very young, just a few years old, when he was full of curiosity about everything unknown. When the orb fell into his hands, the child suddenly lifted it up and said happily: "Dad, look! Daddy!"
Suddenly it became dark.
The orb suddenly fell to the ground, along with the child's palm.
"No!" The child's father screamed miserably. The child, whose hands had been cut off by someone, fell directly to the ground. His whole body was twitching in pain, as if he couldn't breathe.
"Orb! It's mine!"
The child's father subconsciously hugged the child who fell on the ground... He looked up and saw countless eyes from all directions, like the eyes of wealthy wolves. Together, they built a dark wall, blocking him.
in front of.
Soon, the child and the child's father were submerged in the dark wall.
In despair, he let out his last shrill and hateful roar... In the end, even the sound disappeared.
…
"You evil ghosts! I won't let you go even if I die..."
He suddenly opened his eyes, only to see that all the terrifying looks around him had disappeared... He was already in an alley behind a house.
What the child's father saw at this time was a handsome young man... The young man was hugging his child with one hand.
"It was you... who saved me... I seem to have seen you somewhere..." The child's father was startled, and then hurriedly got up: "My child! What's wrong with my child? He... he is
no……"
"He's not dead, he just fainted." The young man returned the child in his arms to the father's hands: "It's just that I couldn't pick up his palm, maybe it has been trampled so hard that it can't be connected."
"It would be great if I could save my life..." the child's father murmured to himself, but he was also filled with sadness and couldn't help but kneel down and cry bitterly.
"Hurry up and find a safe place to hide." The young man looked into the distance at this time, "I'm afraid this turmoil will not stop before dawn."
With that said, the young man walked outside.
"Sir! May I ask who you are...I don't even know your name!"
"I'm not from here." The young man said without turning around: "I don't belong here. Whether you know my name or not has no impact on you."
Looking at the young man's back, the child's father was suddenly startled... Suddenly, he thought of where he had seen this young man!
Before yesterday, on the streets of the royal capital... this young man was the last one to become the new champion of the arena under the princess before the national competition began.
He hugged his child and subconsciously chased him out of the alley...and then stopped here.
He saw no trace of this young man. What he saw was a conference site burning with fire... The sparks were rising slowly, and the hot breath could be clearly felt even here.
Countless residents of the royal capital were running away at this time, and screams could be heard everywhere.
And the high-intensity battles of professionals can be seen everywhere... That is like a demonic power to the child's father.
Just a simple blow from them is enough to shatter the boulder.
He was still holding his child, but suddenly he collapsed on the ground, "How could this happen...how could this happen..."
In the place swallowed by the flames, there was his and his children's home.
…
…
The big sword was swung in a circle, and several professionals who were besieging him flew out instantly.
At this moment, Mo Sang thrust the big sword in his hand directly into the ground and shouted: "I am Mo Sang, the first disciple of General Shang. If you are not afraid of death, just come up and let grandpa kill you! Grandpa is so angry with me, I told you that I
There are no orbs on my body! What bastard wronged my grandpa!"
"Kill! The orb must be in his hand!"
"You guys who are not afraid of death! I want to fight twenty of them! Come all of them!"
a-few-ments-later.
Mo Sang indeed lived up to his reputation as a natural god... The fainted professionals in front of him had piled up into a small mountain of people, but he was still breathless and didn't blush.
Perhaps because the intimidation was enough, at this time, no professional came forward anymore... Mo Sang then took the time to talk to his little brother.
"Little brother, there are dangers all around! You must not leave my side!" Mo Sang said in a rough voice at this time: "I am very strong, but I can't run fast! You are far away, and I can't catch up at once.
of!"
"Thank you, Mr. Moissan."
In fact, from the beginning of the melee, Mo Sang has always been very protective, so that although the melee gradually became fierce, Boss Luo and Nan Xiaonan were not affected at all.
Perhaps, this is what Mr. Luo said is convenient, having a brute force bodyguard like Mo Sang... Mr. Luo's easy mode Nan Xiaonan thought to herself.
Regarding Mo Sang's protection, Boss Luo curiously asked: "Mr. Mo Sang, you have been protecting us, aren't you afraid that in the end we will be disadvantageous to you?"
"My mother said that people who usually ask these questions are good people who can think of others!" Mo Sang said in a humming voice: "Little brother, you are afraid that I will waste my energy, right? Don't worry! I have very good endurance.
!When we were plowing in the countryside, I was the one who plowed everyone’s fields!”
"...You left the village, and the villagers in your hometown must be very reluctant to leave." Nan Xiaonan couldn't help but say.
"Hey! How did you know?"
"I wouldn't be able to part with it if it were me." Nan Xiaonan shrugged, then waved her hand and said: "Mr. Mo Sang, let's not talk about this... Do you know how many roads there are to the palace from here? Which road is best to take?
Which road is the hardest to walk?”
"Why are you going to the palace?" Mo Sang asked in shock, "I haven't found the orb yet?"
Nan Xiaonan rubbed her bangs and said, "You don't know who has the orb now, so how can you find it? Do you still remember what the Queen of the Dragon Clan said? Only the person who comes to her with the orb is considered the winner, that is,
He said that whoever gets the orb will go to the Dragon Queen."
"I understand!" Mo Sang suddenly shook his head, "What a plan! Why didn't I think of it! We just need to wait for the person holding the orb to appear at the end, and then grab it!"
Nan Xiaonan opened her mouth and smiled bitterly: "I don't feel the pleasure of being praised by you at all. If you can think of this, others can think of it, and there may even be many people lurking at the entrance of the palace.
The guys nearby are waiting to hunt, and even if we get there now, we will only be one of these hunters at most, and we may not have much advantage."
"Then you still ask me the way to the palace?" Mo Sang was puzzled.
"Things that everyone can think of, the person who got the orb will also think of it." Nan Xiaonan shook his head and said: "The palace will definitely go. The key is which route the guy who gets the orb will choose. Generally speaking,
, the more seconds you have the orb in your hand, the more danger you will face. Generally speaking, you will choose the shortest way, hand the orb to the Dragon Queen as soon as possible, and win, but at the same time, the dangers on the road will be the most... If you get the orb
If a person is smart enough, he may choose the path that seems the most difficult and takes the longest time... Now, do you understand what I mean?"
Mo Sang thought for a while, then shook his head and said confidently: "I don't understand!"
"...If it weren't for the fact that you are still useful." Nan Xiaonan gritted his teeth and muttered, and then said in a deep voice: "We have to choose the most difficult and time-consuming road to ambush, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Mo Sang nodded heavily, and then said: "But if the guy who got the orb is not smart enough, he will not take the longest road of ours at all, but the shortest road. We are not
missed?"
Nan Xiaonan opened her mouth subconsciously.
Is this really a...soul torture?
"In this case, let's go directly to the real end point and wait." Boss Luo said softly at this time: "Go to Queen Hilda's side and wait until the orb appears."
…
…
a moment ago.
The melee hasn't started yet... but the orb has already shot into the sky from Queen Hilda's palm.
Outside the competition venue.
Soldiers were busy transporting the bodies of players who died during the game to a temporary storage site, which was a makeshift wooden house.
There are many wooden houses like this nearby, probably dozens of them...and now there are some fresh corpses inside.
"It seems that before sunset, these houses will not be enough."
The wooden cart stopped, and the soldiers pulled out a corpse that had just expired, and then threw it into the house. Then he turned around and sighed, "I'm tired. I really want to go to Old Carl's Tavern for a drink at this time... You
What's wrong?"
"Just now, did the body move?"
"Corpse?" The soldier looked at his colleagues in surprise, then hesitated, and said subconsciously: "Maybe he hasn't completely died yet... No matter what, if he is injured like this, even if he is rescued, he will still be disabled."
"Okay... maybe I saw it wrong."
They closed the door and then pushed the wooden cart back to the competition venue. At this time, the Queen's voice just sounded.
