If we talk about what supported and maintained the operation of this game world in the early stages of its construction, then there is no doubt...the palace!
At this moment, Shogo Tokiwa, who was using the power of the Ex-Aid armor, could clearly sense that the gorgeous palace that every hero would enter when he was born was the core mechanism of this game world.
Destroy it, and this "newly constructed" game world will begin to collapse like dominoes, eventually throwing the people trapped inside back into the real world.
…
…
The journey back was smooth sailing.
There are no more monsters in the maze, and no more black dragons in the sky...
There are only a few weak Collapse Viruses showing off their power on the level, and they can finish things with one hammer. Compared with the leisurely way they came... well, it doesn't seem to be any different.
The only thing that was different from when they came was probably the scene in the Candy Kingdom's imperial capital.
The original prosperity was no longer there, the shops were desolate, there were no crowds of human warriors, and there were only a few sporadic NPCs left on the streets, all of which were still flickering with unstable signals.
Tokiwa Shougo, Hosei Emu and Parade entered directly from the palace gate in a bugster, and they were fair and square.
Without the guards and patrolling soldiers, their intrusion did not cause the slightest ripple within the walls of the palace.
As the main hall approaches, Baosheng Yongmeng's memories that have been sealed for three years are gradually revealed.
The wizard who leads the way is sitting high on the throne, a king who looks like Tan Li Dou.
At that time, he never thought that the king not only had the appearance of Tan Li Dou... he was Tan Li Dou himself!
laugh--
As they approached, the main hall door automatically opened to both sides.
At the end of the palace, Tan Lidou made a fist with his right hand and rested his chin on the armrest of the throne, looking at the people walking in from outside the palace with a smile.
The wizards serving under the throne held their chests and saluted in welcome.
Because Tan Li Dou, who was sitting high on the throne, raised his lips and praised with a smile: "I don't know how you did it, but... you did a good job."
"Then, I'm thinking, what should I use as a reward for you?"
He raised his left hand and pointed at Tokiwa Shougo, Hosei Nagamu and Parade.
"Why don't you let them play with you first?"
"Haha, are you so hospitable? Then..."
Tokiwa Shougo smiled and picked up the hammer. One second he was still laughing and talking, but the next moment he rushed out decisively, swinging his arm widely and hitting one of the wizards hard.
Bang!
Amidst the roar, Tokiwa Shougo stood up, looked at the palace wizards who had scattered, shrugged their shoulders, swung the hammer-shaped destroyer, and slowly said the second half of the sentence.
"—I have no choice but to strike first."
On the palace floor, the body of a palace wizard turned into pixels and disappeared.
The enemy is more numerous than us, and they are obviously trying to bully the smaller ones. So, why do we need to pay attention to battle etiquette? Just hit it and that's it!
This is how Tokiwa Shogo fights.
Bang bang!
Applause came from the throne. Tanli Dou not only did not feel angry about Tokiwa Shougo's behavior, but actually seemed very happy.
"I see, you can't wait anymore? Then, I will satisfy you, young devil."
As Tan Lidou's words fell, the chanting of mantras began to sound.
One of the three remaining palace wizards raised his staff, and several fireballs appeared floating around him. The other threw away the wizard robe, added three buffs to himself, and used the staff as a stick. He swung it towards Tokiwa Shougo.
The last one also held up a staff, but it had no magical effect yet.
3 VS 1!
Baosheng Yongmeng handed the Dragon Knight Hunter Transformation Cassette to Parad, and then pressed the start button to activate the Almighty Action X Transformation Cassette.
"Zhuanggo, let's help you!"
After saying that, he was about to pull the handle of the player's driver to transform, but...
"Baby is born with eternal dreams!"
Tan Li Dou looked at Baosheng Yongmeng and Parade with a smile, and then just waved his hand and made them disappear into the hall.
"Wait patiently, it's not yet time for you to conquer the levels of the game."
…
…
Tokiwa Shougo dodged three fireballs, dodged the French stick sideways, swung the hammer, and took the opportunity to hit the melee palace wizard's open abdomen.
However, a shield immediately lit up on his abdomen just right. Although it was quickly destroyed by Tokiwa Shogo, the melee palace wizard also took the opportunity to retreat and was not within the attack range of Tokiwa Shogo.
Long-range, melee, auxiliary... they are indeed a team in the game world. This combination, so is it actually the MT who was first killed by his sneak attack?
Ugh, so ridiculous... As expected of MT.
After the battle, Zhuangwu heard Baosheng Yongmeng's shout and took the time to turn around to look, just in time to see Baosheng Yongmeng and Parade being waved away by Tan Lidou.
He also stretched out his hand. In the world of this game, those wearing Ex-Aid armor also have a certain amount of 'authority'. Although not as good as Tan Lidou, he can still take the opponent by surprise when he takes the initiative to open a 'gap'. Slightly affects the end point on the other side of the teleportation.
for example,
Set the endpoint to the real world.
After dodging the fireball again and throwing the Hammer Destroyer at the melee palace wizard who was trying to get closer, Tokiwa Shougo raised his hand and clenched his fist.
Da da da--
Time stops here!
The movements of the three palace wizards completely stopped at this time, like three stone statues.
Tokiwa Shougo turned around and looked at Tanli Dou easily and leisurely.
Behind the throne, a game clock that glowed green was rotating normally. Tanlito was right in front of the clock, smiling back at Tokiwa Shougo's gaze.
"As expected, you also have this kind of power, Tokiwa Shogo."
Although Aura never mentioned in front of him that Tokiwa Shougo also had the power of stopping time, she only said that this young King of Time could transform into the first level of Zi-O, but he didn't believe it!
If Tokiwa Shogo doesn't have this kind of power, then why do they, the Time Tribbers, have to work so hard to secretly support a new king? Isn't it okay to support it openly and honestly? Moreover, using time-stop as an auxiliary, living a normal life and only moving in a time-stop world, wouldn't it be more private and covert?
There is naturally a reason why they don't do this.
One, they were stupid and didn’t expect it.
Regarding this, he felt that it was unlikely. After all, they were going to fight against the nearly omnipotent King of Demon Time that they said.
If they had been stupider, they would all have died long ago.
So, that’s the second point.
Even the young King of Time possesses this power. At least, he should have the ability to move freely in a world where time has stopped.
But now, he confirmed his suspicion.
[This is right. ]
Tan Li Dou stood up.
Dense black lines rushed out of his body and wrapped around him.
【Ex-Aid! 】
With a deep voice, he transformed into the alien Ex-Aid.
"In that case, then you should try to conquer 'I', because 'I' is the final BOSS of this game world, the core of the core!"
He bounced up, then plummeted down, kicking towards Tokiwa Shogo.
At the same time, the clock behind the throne chimed, and green ripples spread out.
The three court wizards who were originally unable to move in the world that stopped at this time returned to normal, and together with the alien Ex-Aid transformed by Tanlito, they attacked Tokiwa Shougo together.
A smile appeared on Tokiwa Shogo's face.
This situation where time stops were invalidated did not make him feel frustrated at all. On the contrary, the power that could make people immune to time stops also made him feel a little happy.
[What...hasn't it disappeared in the long river of time? Tan Zhengzong, you are still here, in the hands of your son, Tan Lidou. ]
Since there are still traces of Tan Zhengzong's existence in this world, he will have a way to bring him back after destroying the alien EX-Aid knight watch.
He smiled and pressed the button above the knight's watch to activate his special move.
【Finish Time! Ex-Aid! ! 】
A rainbow pedal appeared under his feet and he kicked it toward the three court wizards.
Using the powerful bouncing power of the Ex-Aid armor, he dodged Tan Li Dou's flying kick. He quickly kicked the three palace wizards back and forth several times.
[Critical Time Break (Critical Time Break)! 】
Boom boom boom! !
Three times in a row, the three palace wizards exploded and died.
Then, a light of concentrated energy appeared at the feet of Tan Li Dou who had been dodged. His special move was brewing. He jumped up again and launched a flying kick at Zhuang Wu on his right.
Tokiwa Shougo also pressed the knight watch button again, and once again came out with a sure-fire counterattack.
boom!
The two energies collided, and Tokiwa Shougo and Tanlito faced off for two seconds. Then, the alien Ex-Aid that Tanlito had transformed into was defeated first and was kicked to the ground, canceling the transformation.
The alien Ex-Aid knight watch falls from his body.
Purple pixel blocks overflowed from Tan Lidou's body, and his body began to dissipate.
But despite this, he still had a confident and even somewhat boisterous smile on his face.
"Well done...good!"
Finally, he praised Tokiwa Shogo and then disappeared.
…
…
On the other side, Baosheng Yongmeng and Parade heard familiar voices as soon as they opened their eyes.
"Welcome back to the real world, genius player M."
Tan Li Dou was dressed in formal attire, holding a God Extreme game cartridge, and announced with a loud smile.
"The new game has begun, are you ready?"
