"Task?"
Zhang Ze turned back and said, "Go and see what the mission is."
The silver dragon was not an evil dragon. He immediately ran to Amethyst, put his hand on it, and the mission information appeared in front of him.
[Mission]: Assist the kind and upright Minister Howard to overthrow the incompetent and foolish King Kiel and establish a new dynasty!
[Reward]: 1,000,000 experience points, 100,000 gold coins, and 1 fiefdom in the kingdom.
【Time】: 24 hours
…
Yinlong told Zhang Ze the contents of the mission, and Zhang Ze laughed out loud on the spot.
"It turns out you are the mastermind behind this, Howard!"
The lustful dragon was confused: "What are you talking about? The mastermind behind the scenes? How do you know, Brother Rakshasa?"
"People have written their names on it, but you still can't see it?"
Seeing that Yinlong still had a confused expression on his face, Zhang Ze had no choice but to explain: "Let me ask you, who is most beneficial to this mission?"
"Player!"
The obscene dragon blurted out: "One million experience points, one hundred thousand gold coins, and a fiefdom. The reward is so generous!"
Zhang Ze: "..."
He suddenly didn't want to explain, because even Yinlong's intelligence might not be able to understand.
But he still said: "The most beneficial person is Howard."
"As long as he becomes king, he will become the master of this country, and he can get whatever he wants!"
"As for experience, gold coins, and fiefdoms, they are all nothing to the throne!"
"Don't forget, he is the boss behind "The Journey of Gods and Demons". What he wants to give you is just to adjust the background data. He does not need to pay any price."
"When he achieves his goal and becomes the king, the game server will be shut down directly. No one of you can log in anymore, and naturally you will not be able to pose any threat to him."
"It's a pity that this guy is too impatient. In order to become the king as soon as possible, he directly issued a mission and exposed his identity. Hum, I finally caught his tail!"
"So, you should understand now, Howard is the mastermind behind this!"
"Oh..." Yinlong was still trying to digest what Zhang Ze had just said. Zhang Ze didn't want to waste time and said, "Thank you for providing me with such important information. I will give you a large amount of extra money."
"Oh, by the way, I lied to you last time. There is no monster in your belly now."
After that, Zhang Ze flew towards the Misery Wilderness.
"Ah?" Yinlong opened his mouth wide and said depressedly: "If I had known this, I would have taken less insecticide..."
…
The flight speed of the soul state is quite fast. It only took Zhang Ze more than an hour to return from the Dry Bones Cemetery to the Misery Wilderness.
"It seems I came back in time..."
Zhang Ze saw from the air that the Kingdom's coalition forces surrounded his town, but did not launch an attack, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
But he was also wondering in his heart. He went to the player's world and went back and forth for several days. Why didn't the Kingdom Alliance attack?
Taking advantage of his current soul state, where no one could see him, Zhang Ze slipped into the kingdom's coalition forces, found the marshal's command camp, and wanted to find out.
In the camp, Marshal Eddie and Marcus were talking, their faces solemn.
"Judging from the distress letter sent by His Majesty Kiir, the capital has been surrounded by an army of players. Fortunately, there are still 100,000 guards in the city, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!"
Marshal Eddie frowned and said in confusion: "I'm very surprised. Those players usually only move around the kingdom and rarely come to the center. Why did they suddenly attack in large numbers this time? And when the mage army is not around, this is also Isn’t it too much of a coincidence?”
"Yes, and the target of the player's attack is very clear, which is the capital!" Marcus hit the nail on the head, he said solemnly: "I suspect there is someone behind them!"
"Who could this person be?"
Both of them were guessing in their hearts, but they had no clue.
"Eddie, now the capital is under siege, and His Majesty is urging you and me to rush back for rescue. I think we should not fight in this suffering wilderness for the time being, right?"
Marcus looked at Marshal Eddie and said, "It's important to save His Majesty Kil."
"Alas!" Marshal Eddie sighed heavily and said helplessly: "Seeing that victory is in sight, I can only withdraw my troops. I am unwilling to do so!"
Previously, when the Kingdom Alliance fought with Zhang Ze, the casualties exceeded 5,000. Marshal Eddie had been holding his breath. He wanted to break through the town of Misery Wilderness and avenge his dead men.
As a result, now that he was about to succeed, he had to withdraw his troops and felt very depressed.
"So that's it..."
Zhang Ze finally understood: "It seems that this mission should have been released for some time. Players flocked to the capital of the kingdom after receiving the mission."
"His Majesty Kiir was afraid, so he urged the kingdom's coalition forces to return quickly to protect the king..."
He fell into deep thought and said to himself: "Actually, I have no grudges with Marshal Eddie and the old mage. If I can cooperate with them, maybe we can join forces to deal with Howard!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Ze immediately returned to the town. He called Aladdin in his mind: "Where is my body?"
Aladdin, Zhu Bajie, and the six-eared macaque were guarding Zhang Ze's body. When he heard Zhang Ze's voice, his face lit up with joy: "Master, you are finally back! Your body is in the Consul's Mansion!"
Zhang Ze rushed over immediately. At this time, in addition to Aladdin and a group of entourage in the room, several loyal men such as Hardy, Old Morgan and Devin were also standing by with worried faces.
Zhang Ze pounced directly on his body, and the fusion process went smoothly. Half an hour later, he had complete control of his body.
"Your own body is the best!"
Zhang Ze sat up, startling Hardy, Old Morgan and others.
They had just discussed privately that they should bury Zhang Ze's body in a grand manner and let people rest in peace.
If they hadn't dared to provoke followers like Aladdin and Zhu Bajie, they might have buried Zhang Ze long ago.
"Owner!"
Aladdin and others were overjoyed and saluted Zhang Ze one after another.
"Sir, you're not dead? That's great!"
Old Morgan, Hardy and others turned from shock to ecstasy. With Zhang Ze, they didn't have to worry about the kingdom's coalition forces outside the city.
"Master, when will we counterattack the enemies outside the city?" The six-eared macaque was eager to attack. It had been guarding Zhang Ze these past few days, but it had suffocated him.
"No, we won't fight this battle."
Zhang Ze stood up and said, "I'm going to negotiate with the Kingdom's coalition forces. They will definitely agree to my suggestion."
…
Just as Marshal Eddie and Marcus were discussing how to deal with the players after withdrawing their troops, suddenly someone reported from his subordinates that Rakshasa, the Archon of the Tribulation Wilderness, asked to meet them outside the military camp.
Both of them were shocked at the same time, especially Marcus. His eyes widened and he shook his head repeatedly: "No way! Absolutely impossible!"
"My Nether Space is an ancient forbidden technique, and it has never failed! None of the people who were sent away have survived! How can a Rakshasa be resurrected?"
He angrily grabbed the staff and strode out of the camp: "I want to see if he is really resurrected or if someone is pretending to be him!"
Marshal Eddie also followed closely behind. In order to protect the safety of the two of them, a convoy of 300 people surrounded them in the center and walked out of the camp together.
"You...are you really resurrected?!"
When Marcus saw Zhang Ze for the first time, he knew that this was definitely not a fake, but the real person.
Marshal Eddie looked nervous and shouted loudly: "Rakshasa, what do you want to do? If you still want to fight, then don't talk nonsense!"
Zhang Ze waved his hand and said seriously: "You two, I don't have any deep grudge against you. I am here to discuss cooperation with you."
"cooperate?"
The two old men were stunned. They were from the Kingdom Alliance and Zhang Ze was a wanted criminal. What could they do to cooperate?
"I know that the Kingdom's capital is being besieged by an army of players, and His Majesty Kiir is in danger."
Zhang Ze said slowly: "I am willing to cooperate with you to save the kingdom's capital, drive away the players, and protect His Majesty Kiir."
"How did you know that the capital was besieged by players?" Marshal Eddie narrowed his eyes and asked alertly: "Could it be you who caused all this?"
"Of course not! There is someone else behind the scenes." Zhang Ze responded calmly and said: "If you don't believe me, you can leave the player to me to deal with it, and you go and save His Majesty."
Marcus was a little confused: "Why are you doing this? What's in it for you?"
"It's no good. I was recruited by Queen Louise. From the beginning to the end, I never wanted to be an enemy of the Kingdom or His Majesty Kiir."
"You were too suspicious and insisted on killing me, so I was forced to fight back."
Zhang Ze shrugged and said: "Okay, let's talk about the key points. After my understanding, these players are just being used by others. The real enemy we have to face is the people who use the players behind the scenes!"
"Who is that person?" Marshal Eddie asked in a deep voice.
"Howard!" Zhang Ze replied directly: "I bribed a player and he told me."
Upon hearing Howard's name, Marshal Eddie and Marcus both showed shocked expressions, because in their opinion, Howard was the least suspicious.
Because Howard was a favorite of His Majesty Keir, he was so powerful that one person was inferior to ten thousand people.
He already has all the money and status, why would he secretly use players to go against His Majesty Kiir? Isn't this good for him? !
Seeing that they were doubtful, Zhang Ze said, "You can doubt me now. When you see Howard, the truth will naturally come out."
The two old men discussed in low voices. After a while, Marshal Eddie said loudly: "Okay, Rakshasa, I believe you for the time being. However, your task is to deal with the players. King Qin's escort is a matter for our kingdom's coalition forces. You are not allowed to interfere, let alone You are not allowed to step into the palace!"
Marshal Eddie's biggest headache now is how to deal with those players who can't die. With the few troops he has, he has no chance of winning.
Even if Marcus's mage army is added, he is not completely sure.
By chance, Zhang Ze proposed that he should deal with the players, which played into the hands of Marshal Eddie.
Zhang Ze said it didn't matter, he originally planned to deal with the players.
The two sides reached an agreement. Marshal Eddie and Marcus led the kingdom's coalition forces to return to King Qin immediately, while Zhang Ze went to deal with the players.
Returning to the town, Zhang Ze left Zhu Bajie and the six-eared macaque behind to help Hardy and Old Morgan defend the town in case of accidents.
"Iron Titan, come out!"
At Zhang Ze's call, the Iron Titan reappeared in the sky. It transformed into a spaceship, and its huge body almost covered the entire town.
After boarding the Iron Titan, Zhang Ze recalled the list of landing camps he had seen before and ordered the Iron Titan to collect amethysts.
"In order to save time and improve efficiency, collect all the amethysts first, and then throw them into the flaming lava together!"
"As you command, Master!"
The Iron Titan took action immediately. It flew towards the destination at full speed according to the location provided by Zhang Ze...
At the same moment, the kingdom’s capital city.
His Majesty Keir was frightened. He hid behind the throne, his body shaking like a sieve, and asked in horror: "Howard! Haven't those terrible players been driven away yet?"
"What are the Imperial Guards doing? Why haven't Marshal Eddie and Archmage Marcus come back? Why don't the other armies come back to escort King Qin?"
Howard pretended to comfort him: "Your Majesty, the Guards have been fighting bravely, and Marshal Eddie and the others are already on their way. Don't worry, everything will be fine."
"No! No!"
His Majesty Kiir's face turned pale. He shook his head repeatedly, like a frightened child. He shouted: "I want to escape from the capital. I cannot be captured alive. I am the king. They will humiliate me and then kill me!" "
As he said that, he stood up, spinning around like a headless fly, and muttered: "Howard, go and prepare a carriage for me, take all my gold coins with you, and not one of those beauties should be missing..."
After thinking for a while, he curled his lips and said, "And Queen Louise, take her with you."
Although this guy is fatuous and lustful, it is rare that he still thinks about his married wife at the critical moment.
Howard bowed down respectfully: "As you command, Your Majesty."
He secretly showed a sinister smile and said in his heart: "I will send you to hell!"
Upon learning that the king was about to escape, the entire palace was in chaos, with people bumping into each other, men shouting and women crying, as if the country was about to perish.
The carriage was ready. His Majesty Kiir pulled a few beauties and hurriedly boarded the carriage, urging loudly: "Go! Go!"
The groom raised his whip and the car slowly drove out of the palace.
The Praetorian Guards desperately opened a way out of the capital and waited for the king's motorcade to pass.
The nobles also came after hearing the news. They dragged their families and their carriages were filled with gold, silver and jewelry, and fled out of the city with His Majesty Kiir's motorcade.
In their opinion, it is safest to be with the king.
Little did they know, they were already in disaster.
"Howard! Where is my Queen Louise? Why isn't she here?"
The motorcade had already left the capital, and His Majesty Kiir remembered his wife and hurriedly asked.
"Your Majesty, don't panic. Queen Louise is at the back of the convoy. You will be reunited when we reach a safe area."
After hearing Howard's lie, His Majesty Kiir breathed a long sigh of relief. He looked out the car window and said with a sad face: "When will this disaster end? Alas!"
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, it will be over soon..."
Howard smiled coldly. At this time, a green light screen appeared in front of him, and he clicked on an option: [Release Mission].
