The desert of the Western Kingdom is deep and full of yellow sand. The vast rolling sea of dark yellow sand stirs up sandstorms almost every half an hour, making it invisible all day long. It is like a hell. People only need to be here. If you stand there for a minute, you will be completely submerged in the dust.
The scorching sun radiates its heat unbridled here, giving the violent wind and sand a scorching temperature, just like the red iron filings taken out after being buried in a strong furnace for a while.
Fried eggs are just a trivial matter for these hot sands, which turn the entire desert into a dry furnace without any moisture. Any creature that stays here will be roasted into mummy after Katana.
This is deep in the desert of the Western Kingdom. It's a place where life is extinct, and even monsters don't want to stay in such a ghostly place.
However, at this time, if you break through the billowing dust storm, you will be surprised to find that there are more than a dozen pairs of scarlet eyes flashing inside at a certain location deep inside.
They exude a powerful magical aura, blocking the huge sandstorm from the outside world. Forming a barrier about a kilometer in diameter. For the depths of the desert that are trembling under the stormy dust and raging sun, the calm interior of the barrier is as reassuring as an oasis or paradise in this desert.
Inside the calm barrier, the figures of the masters with more than a dozen pairs of scarlet eyes gradually became clear. They turned out to be twelve fallen demon wizards with red bodies, holding ghost skills, and exuding extraordinary auras.
The powerful aura emanating from them is definitely not comparable to the clones of the fallen magic wizards in the second world. The real sense of coercion is enough to prove that each of them is genuine.
At this time, these twelve fallen magicians. Putting the ghost-headed staff aside, they sat together in a slightly funny posture, with their heads together, studying a crumpled drawing placed in the center. Twelve red heads were pushed and squeezed together. You can only vaguely see what appears to be a magic circle drawn on the drawing through the gaps.
Their mouths were constantly chattering. Occasionally, words like Andariel, Belial, and Duriel could be heard, and they seemed to be arguing about something. However, the sound gradually died down, and they seemed to reach an agreement. They patted their buttocks and stood up, holding their respective hands. The ghost-headed sticks spread out to all sides of the barrier, and they didn’t know what they were messing with.
On the other side, in the room called Alice Hotel, three grown men were still talking.
I was even more worried after receiving incomplete information from Carlos and Seattle. The monster riot this time was bigger than I imagined. Every city was surrounded by hundreds of thousands of monsters, especially Lugaoin City, which received special attention.
Standing on the city wall and looking out, as long as your eyes are sharp enough, well, if you can probably reach the lighting range bonus around the point of the knife, you can break through the layers of yellow sand and see the sea of monsters dozens of kilometers away.
Of course, quantity is one aspect. Compared with the situation in Rogge Camp, although the troops here are dispersed, they are not without advantages, and that is the city wall. Compared with the simple wooden wall built of logs in Rogge Camp, here The huge stone wall has been reinforced countless times by mage magic. It is estimated that even the blood bear energy cannon cannot collapse it with one blow.
This is a huge advantage, and I heard that each city also has a large magic circle, which can be activated when necessary. Although this huge magic circle, compared with the magic circle of the royal city of the elves, is simply the difference between a giant and a child. . It's not as good as Kurast's defensive magic circle. But at least if you have insurance, it's absolutely no problem to deal with emergencies.
Then, there is the last line of defense, which is to ask for help from the adventurers in Harrogath when it is really irreversible. I believe that those tricks are already ready to be used. It seems that Lu Gaoyin is a master who travels at night for a few days. They will never be stingy about showing off their skills in front of younger generations.
With these three lines of defense, I am not too worried about what kind of waves these huge numbers of monsters can hit. There will definitely be sacrifices on the adventurers' side, but with the three lines of defense, they can be well controlled. Within the acceptable range, it will not cause disastrous consequences like the monster attack on the village eight years ago.
What really worries me is what the leaders behind these monsters, those three cunning demon kings, are planning. Although Akara said that these three guys are heading towards the angel tribe's base camp in the third world this time, There is no smoke without fire. Why didn't monster riots appear in the first world, but did they appear in the second world?
Obviously, even if the real purpose of the three demon kings is to go after those angels, they may not have no idea about the second world. They probably regard the second world as a bowl of vegetable soup. Although it is cheap, it can at least fill the teeth. Mosquitoes are small and numb.
Although the current situation may be just an impromptu act by the three devils, we cannot help but relax. Don't forget that there is a conspiracy devil among these three devils, even if it is an impromptu act. If you don't deal with it well, you might end up with a tragic end.
"Why are you looking so sad here? According to me, the three of us just go out and kill each other. We kill three times a day, which will take less than half a month. We can clear out the monsters near a city.
Seattle, this barbarian, carelessly picked his teeth and said dissatisfiedly. His murderous eyes were filled with fighting intent, and he looked like a crazy armored rhinoceros.
After listening to Seattle's heroic speech, Carlos and I couldn't help but give him a look of contempt. This guy is not brainless. On the contrary, among barbarians, he can be regarded as a master of martial arts. But most of the time, he prefers to talk with his head in front of his head and "Wait for us to kill this side in half a month. Then the other side will be killed." The monster is reborn again." Carlos reminded the other party coldly.
"Rebirth is rebirth, and the rest will be left to the other little guys. We just need to fight! Fight! Fight! Wahaha"
The three "battles" with Seattle's murderous spirit made Carlos and I sigh deeply.
Sure enough, this warlike guy doesn't care about the life and death of these five cities and the people in them. He just wants to make soy sauce along the way. No. He hit someone with a soy sauce bottle.
We can't expect this guy to be of any help to our actions. Carlos and I looked at each other. I decided to kick Seattle away. If it actually likes to fight, I might as well just use his strengths to help reduce the burden on the defending adventurers.
"Put aside the plan behind the investigation for now. The most important thing now is to gather Taba from the Mage Guild, the head of the alliance, a member of the Dika family, and Kane's distant relative Gaen. There are also mercenaries. Thackeray, the president of the guild, will first reallocate the adventurers in the five cities and make the most reasonable distribution."
Carlos nodded slightly, while I covered my head and complained.
"Really, that guy from Akala, why do we even have to leave the task of organizing the battle to us? Aren't Garn, Taba, and Thackeray from the mercenary union more experienced than us? Let's go. What’s going on, if good talents are not used and the value of our surplus labor is reduced?”
I looked at Seattlek, who was counting on his fingers how many he killed in a day, how many he reborn in a few days, and how many days it would take him to kill all by himself, and then I looked at Carlos, who was smiling slightly.
"Sorry, Carlos, you will probably have to complete the tasks assigned by the organization this time. I really don't know anything about this kind of work."
"I reject."
As soon as the words fell silent, Carlos rejected him with a cool smile. The rejection was so refreshing and clear that it took me a long time to react.
"Junior Brother Wu, it seems that you still haven't understood what Elder Akara means."
Facing my puzzled look, Carlos slowly explained.
"Why leave the experienced Gaen and Taba alone and let you take charge? No, if you have to tell me, why do you want us to come over to solve this crisis instead of the more powerful Teacher Kasha and Elder Farah? You Do you know why this is?"
At this point, Carlos looked at me deeply and gave me the answer before I could react.
"It's all because of you. In order to cultivate you. In order to establish your prestige, all of this is the painstaking efforts of the Great Elder Akala. I, Seattle Ke, and Sharna are just your shadows."
From his mouth, word by word, he came to a firm conclusion. "Let's put it this way, if a few years later, the alliance gains the power to compete with the forces of hell and rises up, then the leader must be you. If we successfully defeat the forces of hell, then in the history books, you must be the largest in the alliance. A hero whose fame surpasses the Seven Heroes. He becomes a savior respected by people and praised forever."
.
It is unimaginable that these words, which can make all men's blood boil with passion and inspire them to fight, were actually said by Carlos while drinking tea.
What's even more unimaginable to me is that being able to become the person Carlos said is like a dream?
Just kidding, I'd rather go home and have the baby.
Looking at Carlos, who was drinking tea, and looking at Seattle, who was flexing his fingers attentively, I managed to calm down and put on a flattering smile.
"Well. Two gentlemen, as men, wouldn't you be moved by the great achievements? Are you willing to just be that shadow? As long as you open your mouth, I promise to give up my position to you immediately. Why are you still hesitating? Hurry up. Let’s speak out loud about the ambition deep in the male soul!!”
I used passionate language that Carlos didn't have just now. Send out the devil's temptation. A man's life in this world is nothing more than making achievements and being famous for generations. This kind of good thing is something that no man can resist. He's excited! Say "I do" quickly! !
"I just want to find Angele and be with Kajeel's family of three."
A family man, a man looking for a wife, Carlos, the daughter-in-law, said calmly.
"All I need is a fight, oh. It's best to find a woman who can make wine."
The fighting maniac, drunkard man Seattlek tilted his head and ignored me.
Can we only place our last hope on Sister Sharna? Thinking about my sister's character, I immediately slumped down like a balloon with an air nozzle, and lay limply on the table.
"Junior Brother Wu, work hard. The peace of the mainland and the hope of mankind all fall on you."
Two unscrupulous guys said such irresponsible things with smiles on their faces.
"Just wait for me, I'm going to be the devil!"
After looking at the two of them angrily, I made a feeble protest.
"Junior Brother Wu, I have something else I want to discuss with you."
"What's the matter? Just blow it off. I'm responsible for the peace of the mainland and I'm busy."
I lay limply on the table and glanced at Carlos. Seeing his solemn face, I sat up again and said angrily.
"This monster riot mainly involves the Western Kingdom and Rogge Camp. I want to ask you for a task. Can you leave the investigation task at Rogge Camp to me?"
"Oh, can you tell me the reason?"
I looked at Carlos curiously. Although this guy was a serious and loyal paladin, he was not the kind of person who would take on tasks that had nothing to do with him. Jiang: Is your job good? Son. Jia Jin unexpectedly asked for a tassel, which really made me nod in fear.
Akara unexpectedly handed over the command of this operation to me, so take advantage of it and maybe get some gossip about Carlos** Ahem, it's military intelligence, it's military intelligence.
"I don't know if you heard from Great Elder Akara. This time the monsters riot, the Alliance of the Fallen seems to want to do something small.
"I heard. They are just a bunch of clowns. My face instantly cooled down. I said every word with murderous intent.
The Alliance of the Fallen has not heard this word for a long time, just because in recent years, except for the Lu Gaoyin incident in the first world in the past few years, they have never caused much waves. The original three leaders of the Alliance of the Fallen, Carlos, Seattle, and Sister Sharna’s father, the wizard Yaro, who are standing in front of me, are actually all members of the alliance. You said that such an organization is not as good in Adventurers In front of this huge beast like the Alliance, where can we go? It is no exaggeration to say that they are ugly.
Although Carlos and Seattle have now changed their ways, and Yaro is dead, Akara seems to have laid a new ambush in the Alliance of the Fallen, precisely because it has been inactive in these years. And most of the members of the Alliance of the Fallen, what can I say? Well, they are almost all aggregations that condense all kinds of sorrows in this cruel world. So Akara never let me deal with this aspect of things again, so that I forgot about them line by line.
Now Akara and Carlos were suddenly reminded. I just remembered that there is still this group of people, but no matter what kind of pitiful past these people have. At this moment when they are burning their butts, they have to add a lot of fuel, which really makes me unable to give them any compassion. All that is left in my heart is
.
Carlos, who felt my naked murderous intention, couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Ahem, Junior Brother Wu, listen to me. I found out from the Great Elder of Akara that some of the people coming from the Fallen Alliance this time are my former subordinates, so"
After a pause, Carlos' eyes showed firmness, pain and determination. "So, I want to go there in person to see if I can convince them. If not, then. It is better to die by my sword than die by someone else's sword. At least there will be a burial place.
The sadness mixed in the sonorous tone. It flowed slowly in the small room, all of a sudden. The three of us were speechless, lowered our heads, silently immersed in the sadness.
"Okay, I have no reason to stop you, Rogge camp will be left to you. After a moment, I took a deep breath, patted Carlos on the shoulder and said.
"Leave it to me, leave it to my father-in-law."
Carlos murmured, and his complicated and heavy eyes fell out of the window, seemingly across the yellow sand and the endless misty forest, falling on his former partner in the camp.
“I don’t know when exactly the monsters will attack. Without further ado, let’s Li Xuan go find Jia En and the others.
After making the decision, I slammed the table, stood up, and strode out the door. I wanted to be the person in charge, so I had to do it to the end. I would not follow the path Akara had tailor-made for himself. I will use my own will to feel and judge, but if the path she gives is really the best choice, it can really bring happiness to my wives, my relatives, my friends, and If you want to be happy, then why not be the savior?
I have always regarded myself as a homebody, aiming to eat and wait for death, thinking that I only need to protect the important people. Because of this narrow obsession, I did not say it openly, but secretly resisted Akara’s wish. .
In fact, I know very well in my heart that the most convenient way to realize these wishes is to defeat the forces of hell once and for all. However, the otaku's thoughts of leisure and indolence are always haunting my ears like the devil's warning - why does it have to be? What about yourself? Just wait, if you hang around for a few more days, maybe the real savior will come, and you can be intimate with Vilas and the others at home while eating popcorn. Waiting for the Dark Continent to be liberated from the savior.
But now is the time to wake up. The situation has reached this point, and there is no savior. Then do it yourself. Instead of waiting for that misty happiness to fall from the sky, it is better to make it yourself!
Thinking about this, an indescribable feeling surges deep in the soul, as if the dusty place has been washed by clean water, and the soul becomes extremely clear, clear, and pure, with a feeling that has never been experienced before. The breath naturally glows, brews and emanates from the depths of the soul.
A touch of Arturia's inexplicable confidence and energy.
Walking behind are Carlos and Seattle. There was a sudden pause in their footsteps, they looked at each other, smiled, and exchanged words with each other.
Carlos: Junior Brother Wu Fan finally has the consciousness of a leader. It’s not easy!
Seattle K: That old fox in Akala has tried every possible means for this moment. If he were an ordinary person, he would probably consider himself the savior.
"Let's go!!"
After leaving the hotel, facing the hot sun, I looked at Carlos and the Seattle Crowns behind me.
road.
Let's go and take the first step towards becoming the savior of otakus, huh huh!
In the next chapter, Queen Sharna will appear. I’ll see if I have time then and add the character song as well. Although I don’t think it’s suitable for Sharna yet, I can’t find a more suitable one.
