At seven o'clock in the morning, Fuya had just woken up and logged into the game on time.
It was very embarrassing to be blocked offline in the game last night, but she did not forget that she had a plan to kidnap the saint this morning, so she got up early and started preparations.
[You appear on the streets of Glory City. 】
[As soon as you appeared, you felt several arrows coming towards you from behind, but they were blocked by the magic shield around you. 】
[You look back and see two sentries standing a few meters away. One of them turns back in a hurry, seemingly going to report, while the other draws his sword and rushes towards you. 】
[Two fire spears burst out from your hands, instantly piercing through the charging soldiers. Another fireball drew an arc under your control, accurately hitting another person, knocking him to the ground, but the magic flare in the opponent's hand But he has already taken the lead. 】
[The signal bomb flew high into the sky and exploded into a bright firework in the sky. 】
[The moment the fireworks explode, you suddenly hear the roar of people around you, and a large number of knights pour out from the streets in all directions, charging towards you...]
"There is indeed an ambush..."
Fuya curled her lips. She was offline last night and characters disappeared out of thin air on the street. It was normal for the other party to send people to guard near the teleportation point. She was mentally prepared for this.
Fuya then sent a prepared scroll and a card into the game.
[A large number of knights quickly surrounded you, and the leading knights threw out several special magic-sealing iron nets. Dense iron nets form in the sky, blocking your escape route and coming towards you...]
[You tore up the 'Transfer Technique' scroll in your hand, and you appeared in an alleyway one kilometer away. 】
[You activated the hermit card and entered the invisible state...]
In order to escape the siege, Fuya simply used a precious transfer scroll. After this thing is activated, it will be instantly teleported to one kilometer away in a certain direction, and will be prioritized to areas with thin energy, that is, places with few people. , which can be regarded as a very practical life-saving tool.
As for the Hermit Card, Mu You naturally lent it to her. Most of the chasing knights have anti-stealth methods, but no matter how anti-stealth is, it must be effective within a certain distance. At this time, the depth provided by the Hermit Card Being invisible can go a long way.
Fuya then remained invisible and began to move toward the city center. Once a pursuer approached, she immediately stopped her movements, entered deep invisibility, and waited for the pursuers to leave before continuing her action.
After moving so carefully for half an hour, Fuya finally found the square where Saint Fang gave his speech.
[You arrive at the outskirts of Saints Square. 】
[In the large square in front, thousands of men and women are neatly scattered around the venue, kneeling on the ground, listening to the teachings of the saint above under the rising sun. There is a goblin on each person's shoulder, who is equally pious. Listen to the preaching. 】
[On the outside of the square, there are more people and goblins gathering. Everyone pricks up their ears and listens to every word spoken by the saint as much as possible. Everyone's faces show incomparable piety and fanaticism. It seems that being able to hear the voice of the saint is the greatest luck today...]
"..."
Fuya wanted to take back her preamble. The people in this city didn't seem to be normal. They could be so enthusiastic even after listening to a routine speech. The religious worship atmosphere in this city was obviously a bit too extreme.
[You look up and see in the center of the venue, a middle-aged man wearing a white robe and exuding golden light, standing on a high platform, reading out the speech in his hand unhurriedly, his gentle voice seems to contain The wonderful appeal can make the creatures who listen to these words instinctively calm down...]
Fuya originally wanted to control the character to see the saint's appearance clearly outside. If she could match Mu You's clone, she wouldn't have to be exposed.
It's a pity that this guy actually has his own holy light, which greatly increases the difficulty of observation. After waiting for a long time, the game text has never been able to give a detailed description of the opponent's appearance.
Fuya soon became impatient and continued to control the character to move into the square.
[You stealth and sneak towards the center of the square, carefully avoiding all the believers along the way, getting closer and closer to the central platform...]
[Just when you were sneaking to only ten meters away from the saint, an ordinary citizen next to you and the goblin on your shoulder seemed to have noticed something unusual, and suddenly sprinkled a handful of dust in your direction. 】
[Floating dust falls and hangs everywhere around you. Although it does not directly break you out of invisibility, the falling dust still vaguely outlines the curves of your figure in the air. 】
["Who!?" Several guarding knights patrolling near the high platform suddenly shouted and rushed towards you with their swords drawn. 】
["There is an assassin!" Someone shouted, and the scene suddenly became an uproar, with screams everywhere. People near you instinctively got up and fled, leaving an open space to make you more conspicuous. 】
"do not care……"
Fuya frowned. Now that she had been exposed, she simply stopped hiding. The controlled character appeared and violently released her only forbidden spell: Flame Dragon Dance!
[A blazing fire magic array appeared under your feet. Dozens of fire dragons emerged from the array, roaring and rushing towards the knights around them. 】
[Densely packed flame dragons circled in mid-air, spraying dragon breath downwards. The scene was immediately rendered into a sea of fire. Under the heat wave, many residents who could not escape were burned to charcoal on the spot. Even the guarding knights had to retreat. Temporarily avoid the sharp edge of the Flame Dragon. 】
[You ride a broomstick, and under the cover of a large number of flame dragons, you easily break through the encirclement and reach the top of the high platform. 】
[But you noticed that when the guards and people below saw your actions, instead of coming to rescue the saint, they all showed mocking looks of overestimation. 】
["You are so naive to actually want to take action against the Saint!"]
["The Saint is a master who faced the Lord of Disaster head-on alone without falling behind..."]
["Lord Saint, don't kill her, please influence her, let this confused person convert to your teachings..."]
[Amidst the commotion around you, you approach the high platform without any hindrance. The legendary saint in white is already in front of you. You choose...]
Fuya didn't dare to be careless, so she quickly opened the panel and quickly clicked on the magic column, pulling out all the high-level attack magic she could use.
She thought that the other party was the lord of the city after all, and was worshiped by so many people without thinking, so his strength would definitely not be weak. It was unclear whether her burst would be effective, so she showed no mercy when she started, even after casting a spell. round, and then took a bottle of magic potion, preparing for another round, but...
[A large amount of fire magic bursts out from your hands, and raging flames sweep past, instantly rendering the entire high platform into a sea of hell fire...]
[However, under your full attack, you found that the saint in white did not make any defensive movements. Instead, he fell to the ground with a look of horror on his face. The layers of magic shields condensed from props around his body kept lighting up and quickly shattering. . 】
[Soon, all the life-saving props on the saint in white were consumed, and his health dropped in the sea of fire at a speed visible to the naked eye, reaching the bottom in an instant...]
"Well?"
Fuya was stunned. The saint who was praised by the group of people below as being the best in the world was actually so bad?
It doesn’t matter if your defense relies entirely on props. You should try to resist. How can you just kneel down when you first meet...
She didn't have time to think about it. Seeing that the text was already indicating that 'the opponent is in a state of near death', she hurriedly canceled all subsequent attacks. If she really killed the opponent in one wave, she would not know where she would be teleported after being resurrected.
[You quickly retracted your hand, swooped down, and landed next to the fallen saint. You waved your staff to release the 'Silence Technique' and 'Fire Serpent Imprisonment'. 】
[Several flaming snakes swam like ropes, trapping the saint's body tightly and unable to move. 】
【You captured the 'Saint in White'. 】
["Don't, don't kill me, you got the wrong person..."]
["I am not a saint, I am just a substitute for a saint..."]
[The saint in white was tied into a rice dumpling by the fire snake. Under the threat of the fangs of several snake heads, his whole body was shaking like chaff and he kept defending. 】
"substitute?"
Fuya was dumbfounded. She had finally managed to lurk here and even exposed herself to capture this so-called saint. But then she turned around and told her that what she caught was a fake?
["Where is the real saint?" you asked immediately. 】
["I don't know. The saint disappeared more than a thousand years ago. A mysterious goblin found me and asked me to pretend to be a saint. He also promised me many benefits, so I was 'forced' to pretend... In short, this It's none of my business, I'm innocent, don't kill me, I don't know anything..." The man in white completely lost his image, burst into tears, and begged you for mercy. 】
[At this time, you suddenly noticed that your conversation was clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone and the goblins present through the loudspeaker device on the high platform in front of you, causing a burst of noise in the square. 】
["The Saint...is a fake?"]
["The saint we have worshiped for so many years is actually just a fake?"]
["How could this happen? Where has the Saint gone? Has he abandoned us..."]
["No, this is absolutely impossible. The Saint is the embodiment of selflessness, greatness, and kindness. The Saint will never abandon us. This must be the conspiracy of the Lord of Disaster..."]
[You look down, and the square is already in chaos. Some people look confused, some are crying, some are trying to comfort themselves, and some are going crazy. Even the guardian knights have more or less expressions of collapse of faith. This At that time, everyone forgot your existence. 】
["Ah!" A scream suddenly sounded from the crowd. You turned around and saw somewhere in the square below. A goblin suddenly covered his head and fell to the ground in pain. His whole body twitched violently, and a large amount of black energy came from it. Welling out of the body. 】
[After just a few seconds, the goblin was completely swallowed up by the black energy and turned into a black worm several meters long. It opened its bloody mouth and roared at the surrounding crowd. 】
["It's weird!" "The weird thing that has disappeared for hundreds of years has appeared again..." "Help..." Amidst the shouts of everyone, the black worm pounced on the nearest goblin, and the unlucky goblin was instantly killed. The weird dismemberment was crushed into pieces and swallowed into the body. Soon, more black energy surged out of the worm's body and condensed into a new weird flying insect beside it...]
["No, go kill the monsters quickly..." The guardian knights who were originally chasing you were frightened, and hurriedly turned their guns and charged towards the two monsters in the square. 】
[Under the siege of more than a dozen knights, the two monsters were quickly killed and turned into black energy and disappeared while wailing. 】
[However, not long after the death of Weird, among the people fleeing in the distance, another goblin suffered a nervous breakdown, fell to the ground in pain, and soon transformed into a new weird insect...]
[The dark aura seems to be contagious, and more and more fairies around them fall down, transforming into strange creatures, all roaring and rushing towards other fairies and humans around them...]
"Is this weird?" Fuya was a little frightened.
She had heard Mu Yuan talk about this kind of thing a long time ago, but she had never encountered it before. She thought it was something that only existed in ancient times.
I didn't expect it to exist in this era, but the weird ones in Muyou don't seem to attack the locals, but the weird ones in this era seem to attack indiscriminately, so they will be strangled by everyone as soon as they appear.
However, the current situation seems to be a little bad...
[...There are constant goblins transforming into monsters on the scene, but the knights who have the ability to fight against the monsters are stretched thin, and they can only watch as the monsters become more and more, spreading rapidly like a plague...]
Fuya looked at the latest text prompt. She didn't know what the conditions were for this kind of thing to appear, but according to the current trend, it wouldn't be long before the entire city would be completely overwhelmed by the crazy increase in weirdness.
[Just when the Golden City was in chaos, you suddenly heard a familiar dragon roar above your head. 】
[You look up and see a purple two-headed dragon descending from the sky. Its spread wings cover the sky and the sun, and it lands on the edge of the square with a strong wind. On the head of one of the dragons, a masked fairy girl with blue hair and blue wings appeared again. 】
[At the same time, you hear loud shouts of killing coming from the direction outside the city. 】
["No, the army from the Land of Disaster is coming..." Someone shouted from below, and the already chaotic scene suddenly became even more chaotic. 】
["Witch, why did you invade our main city for no reason? Do you want to take advantage of it?" A knight flew under the two-headed dragon and asked the blue-haired goblin on the dragon's head. 】
["There are weird things in your main city. The Lord of Disaster thinks that you are unable to eliminate them. According to the 'Weird Extinction Convention', our army will help you clean up the weird things." The blue-haired goblin replied in a cold tone. 】
["Nonsense! There is no need for outsiders to intervene in matters in Glory City. We are fully capable of handling it ourselves!" the knight said hurriedly. 】
["It's not up to you..." As the blue goblin finished speaking, the two-headed dragon immediately raised its two heads and spat out ice flames and dragon breath towards the square below...]
[The fusion of ice and fire quickly spread to the vicinity of the high platform. The fake saint in white was frightened by the sight and hurriedly begged you to save him and leave. He doesn't want to die here...]
[You require the other party to tell the whereabouts of the saint in white, otherwise he will be left to fend for himself here. 】
["I really don't know... Oh, by the way, the mysterious goblin who came to me a thousand years ago mentioned a place name before leaving. It seemed to be called 'Dark Cave' or something. Maybe it was related to the disappeared saint. ..." With his life hanging by a thread, the fake saint tried his best to think back, and finally came up with a possible clue. 】
[You hurriedly ask the other party where the 'dark cave' is? 】
["I don't know, there is no such place in the Bitter Garden..." the fake saint said in a panic. 】
Fu Ya frowned, and she once wondered if this guy had made up a random name to fool her.
Unfortunately, she didn't have time to think too much at this time. The two-headed dragon's indiscriminate attack had already affected her, and the game was warning her to flee the scene as soon as possible.
Fuya quickly controlled the character to throw the impostor into her backpack, and then exited the game directly.
"How's it going?" Mu You had actually been watching from the side, but he didn't dare to disturb her because she was busy operating. It was only now that he saw Fu Ya exiting the game that he hurriedly asked.
"The two sides are fighting again, so I can only log off first..." Fuya said helplessly.
"again?"
"..."
Fuya was also a little embarrassed. After she came to the Bitter Garden, she seemed to have been to two places throughout the journey. As a result, wars broke out in both places, making her like a disaster star, fighting everywhere.
If the last war in the Rose Principality had little to do with her, this time it seemed that it was because she exposed the fact that the Saint was a fake in public that it directly led to the collapse of Glory City.
