"Come in quickly!" Tian Lan shouted hurriedly.
The Papalar man ran in short and was the last one, and the old knight Dict closed the door in a flash. A bright ax blade burst through the door, as if there were frost teeth growing on the wooden board, startling everyone.
"What the hell are these things?!" Parker screamed, holding his head and running away.
"The Skeleton Executioner is a level 14 undead creature, a skeleton/half-ghost subtype. Their attacks have breaking properties and necrotic effects, causing extra damage to armor and suppressing healing." Jita bent over and panted. road. Her huge glasses slid straight down, and she panicked to hold them up with her hands.
"I know, I know, I was asking where they came from?"
"They were the executioners of the last governor of Dorifin. The last chief executive of Dorifin, Declan Grosl, was born on the coast of the Treasure Staff. He inherited the cruel and bloodthirsty tradition of the local nobles. He had a group of quite talented people under his command. The executioner with family roots." Hongye replied.
"Oh, that's really good news." Parker said rhetorically.
Several knight selectors from Tapolis moved cabinets to block the door, but to no avail. The door was cut open with a few blows of the axe, and the cabinet was split into two pieces.
"It's almost unstoppable, Hongye!" A knight turned back and said anxiously.
"Go to the second floor. The undead in the mayor's office can't get in."
So everyone gave up their position and retreated hastily.
Fang Plover turned around, just in time to see the skeletal giant holding a giant ax breaking into the door. The wooden door shattered, and the wood chips were flying like dead leaves in the autumn wind.
He turned around and caught up with the others and asked: "Hongye, what is going on? Why are you here? What's going on with the people of the Dragon Fire Guild?"
Hong Ye glanced at him sideways and snorted dissatisfiedly, as if Fang Plover owed her thousands of dollars - her hatred was written all over her face: "Are you from the Knights? What obligation do I have to tell you?"
"ah?"
"Hmph, do you think that because you have gained so much limelight in El Paxin, you look down on our small temple?"
This is totally different, but Fang Yu understood that Hongye was angry that he didn't answer her question directly last time. But it was impossible for him to join the Oak Knights of Tapolis, so he could only ask others: "Miss Attila, how did you meet?"
"When we arrived here, we met the 'eldest sister' people and had a fight with them. Miss Hongye came to help us out." Aitila replied concisely, while she looked up and down. After a while, Plover looked at his injured right arm nervously and asked, "Are you okay?"
Fang Yu replied a little embarrassedly: "I'm fine, Miss Aitila."
Hongye sneered: "It's just a superficial wound. This guy's life is very long. I don't think he will die."
Fang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Miss Hongye, thank you for helping us once, but isn't your attitude of recruiting others?"
"You're being sentimental. I'm helping Jita. What does that have to do with you?" Hongye replied, "By the way, if you don't join our guild, you won't be able to date our Jita."
"Sister Hongye!" Jita blushed and shouted angrily.
Fang Plover almost hit the wall head first.
The City Hall is a four-story building designed with defense in mind and looks like a small fortress from the outside. The internal structure also draws lessons from the castle structure of Aitaria, using thick brick walls, spiral staircases, and perforations, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Not to mention that the undead in the core area cannot enter, but even if they can enter, Fang Plover feels that he can defend it for a long time based on the terrain.
A group of people arrived on the second floor. It seemed that this was not the first time Hongye had been here. He led everyone through a long corridor with familiarity, opened a double door, and entered the mayor's office.
Fang Yu took a look at the place. The space was quite spacious. Not far away was a long floor-to-ceiling window. Thick velvet curtains were dragged on the ground, covering them tightly. In front of the window was a desk with various items placed on it. There are some books, and on both sides are a row of long cabinets for storing information and files.
Everything was covered with a thick layer of dust, as if after a long time, everything came from the other end of the long river of time.
There was a carpet in the center of the hall, and a copper planetarium was placed on it. The surface was also dim and dull. A dead skeleton fell next to the planetarium, maintaining a prostrate posture.
There were seven or eight Chosen Knights from Tapolis in the group. Hongye ordered them: "Everyone take a rest."
She turned around and saw Fang Plover's eyes falling on the withered bones: "This was originally the undead leader holding the arrogant scepter. If everything goes well, we can leave this place after defeating him."
"If everything is normal?" Fang Yu raised his head: "What is going on? How did you come to this place?"
Hongye hesitated for a moment, obviously she was still a little angry with this stupid boy, and said in a low voice: "Of course someone invited us here."
"Task?"
Hongye nodded: "It's a big task. Our guild is the one who accepted the commission. We sent two groups to carry out this task. I'm not the general person in charge. The person in charge is the person above. They originally asked me to come and see the world. Who knew this happened?"
Fang Yu couldn't help but think of the Nighthawk of the Oak Knights of Tapolis whom he had met once in Gray Oak Square. The other person's casual glance left a deep impression on him: "Is your person in charge a Nighthawk?"
"Right?" Hongye was a little surprised: "How do you know?"
"Do you know what happened at Gray Oak Square?"
"Are you talking about Hu Di snatching away the Blade of False Victory? I didn't expect him to be so bold. In fact, I have been looking for him these days. After all, we fought side by side at Traveler's Rest."
Fang Yu nodded: "We were there at that time."
Hong Ye looked at Fang Plover and the others with some surprise: "So it turns out that you are the ones who entered the illusion today?"
"Today?" Sylvester on the side looked a little sharp.
Hong Ye instinctively glanced at this woman with some suspicion. Although the two met for the first time, people were always wary of people of the same sex who were too outstanding - of course, except for the heartless ones like Tian Lan.
"This is exactly what I plan to tell you," she replied: "You may not know yet, but there are some problems here. Now we can enter or leave this illusion. We have been trapped here for more than half a week."
"Can I get in or get out?" As soon as Fang Luo said this, everyone else except him looked surprised, and Tian Lan even shouted: "Ah, our ship!"
"Ship? What kind of ship?" Hongye looked at the little girl strangely.
Tianlan seemed to have just remembered that this topic should be kept secret, and rolled her eyes: "Secret."
Hongye glared at her angrily: "Damn girl."
She turned her eyes and landed on Fang Plover: "You don't seem surprised at all."
"Mr. Dickert is not surprised either." Fang Plover looked at the older knight, who was standing aside with a sword. He turned around when someone mentioned him, with a poker face and an expressionless face.
Aitila shook her head: "Now is not the time for joking. Mr. Dict is a paladin. Ed, do you know anything?"
Fang Yu nodded and said: "I have actually made such a guess before, specifically because of Hu Di. Because there is no way to enter this illusion without entering the hotel room. Hu Di obviously does not meet this condition. You still have to Remember what he said when he met us?”
"Ah, that's right!" Tianlan finally reacted: "Why didn't I think of this? He asked us to leave quickly because he had known about the changes here, right? In other words, he was actually in the illusion at that time Already?"
Hongye answered her: "I don't know your situation, but Hu Di should have entered this illusion earlier than us."
Tian Lan sighed exaggeratedly: "Earlier than you? How long has he been in this illusion?"
"Have you ever thought that Hu Di came here directly after leaving Traveler's Rest. If he had stayed somewhere else, it would be too late." Fang Plover suddenly said.
"It seems like this is really the case," Hongye glanced at him in surprise: "I didn't expect you to think so carefully -"
Fang Yu shook his head.
The reason why he thought of this directly was because of Nicol Bolas. It was difficult not to connect two places so close to each other that were both connected to the Dark Dragon.
He was thinking about Hu Di's reason for leaving them without saying goodbye and coming directly to this place after leaving Traveller's Rest.
He couldn't help but ask: "Hongye, do you know your employer?"
Hongye looked at his companions a little uneasily and shook his head: "I can't tell you this, let alone I don't know."
Only then did Fang Yu realize that he had been abrupt, and quickly apologized: "That, I didn't mean to."
The red leaves are a bit funny. "Don't worry, I know."
Only then did Fang Yu ask about another thing: "By the way, why is 'eldest sister' here?"
"Who knows?" Hongye looked worried when he mentioned this person: "When they get out, the Knights will make them look good, just a Dragon Fire Guild."
"What's wrong?" Fang Yu couldn't help but asked curiously when he saw her different attitude.
Jita then added in a low voice: "People from the Dragon Fire Guild attacked Sister Hongye and the others, so everyone had to hide in the illusion."
Fang Yu finally understood after hearing this and said in surprise: "It was you who blocked Dolifen before?"
"It's the employer's request, and we can't reveal our identity." Hongye brushed his long hair and replied a little annoyed: "Who knew that Cheng Yaojin would come out halfway."
"The Dragon Fire Guild seems to be a little-known little guild. Are they not afraid of your revenge?"
Hongye gritted his teeth: "God knows, not only are they not afraid of revenge, but they are also chasing us into the illusion. It seems that they want to drive us all away."
Fang Yu was puzzled: "But didn't you notify the General Assembly? Why didn't we see the people you came to support?"
Hong Ye rolled her eyes at him: "Why didn't you notify me? It's not because of you. El Paxin is now under a strict ban. Not to mention us, even the people from the Silver Forest Spear can't come out."
Only then did Fang Yu realize that he had stabbed the basket. He broke out in a cold sweat and laughed dryly: "Haha, the weather is good today."
The knights of Tapolis on the side didn't care about this, but listened to his nonsense and couldn't help laughing.
Hongye couldn't help but pointed at these people one by one and said angrily: "The culprit is right in front of you. It's a good thing you can still laugh."
But the knights did not give her any face, and retorted in all directions: "Hongye, you are wrong to say that. The culprit is the people of the Dragon Fire Guild. We all know it, not to mention that Tapolis did not express his anger on anyone. The tradition; and Mr. Ed is a famous alchemist, and it is obvious to all that he defeated the ancient tower people. Hehe, you have such a good relationship with him, and you used a beauty trick to trick him into the guild."
Hongye was furious: "Who has a good relationship with him? Shut up, all of you!" Then he turned around and glared at Fang Yu fiercely.
Fang Yu was shot while lying down, so he could only express his innocence.
The others had an attitude of watching the show, but Shesta had a straight face and a look of disdain.
However, Fang Yu always felt that there was a problem in his heart. How could the Dragon Fire Guild provoke a behemoth that was many times stronger than himself for no reason? Even though there might be a lot of benefits in this task, it was not worth taking the risk.
What's more, the Dragon Fire Guild has made it clear that it wants to kill everyone. This is a non-stop rhythm.
As he thought about it, he walked to the window - the mayor's office also gave him a strange feeling, as if it was not empty, and there were some shadowy things lingering in the silent space.
If he calms down, he can hear some specious sounds lingering in his ears, such as whispers, arguments and conversations. But when he regains consciousness, he feels that it is an auditory hallucination, and the whispers in his mind are gone. live.
Fang Yu couldn't help but look around carefully, only to find that the shadows in this office were a bit strange. Sylvide was holding a luminous cone-shaped crystal in her hand, but the shadows did not grow against the light, but flowed like water in the corners.
He suddenly opened the curtains, and the firelight from the Lower City poured in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, sweeping away the darkness in the room. The shadows in the corners suddenly dispersed like a layer of dense smoke.
But there's nothing behind that -
But he was a little disappointed.
He subconsciously looked out the window and couldn't help but take a breath. The forest outside the city hall was filled with undead at some point. From a distance, it looked like a vast expanse of white, like an ocean.
Compared with that, the tide of undead seen in the forest the night before was completely insignificant.
Others looked a little solemn when they saw this scene.
"Originally, we were evenly matched with the Dragon Worship Cult. If that guy Hu Di hadn't released the shadow of the past, causing these undead to appear," Hong Ye walked over and said with some reluctance: "Now with the help of the undead, the municipal government will I’m afraid it will be difficult to defend the hall..."
"Is your mission related to the Dragon Worshipers?" Fang Plover then remembered what he saw and heard in Fisherman's Alley during the day, and the traces left by Nighthawk's penetrating shot there. Now he thought that the two sides fighting should be Dragon Worshipers. Cultists and the Order of the Oaks of Tapolis.
Hongye nodded: "Our mission was originally to prevent the Dragon Cultists from entering Dolifen."
"What?" Fang Yu was startled, as if a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, dispersing the original fog: "Did the Dragon Fire Guild collude with the Dragon Worship Cult?"
Hongye was also in disbelief and shook his head subconsciously: "Impossible! Unless they are crazy!"
Kaolin - The master of Ithurion, at least for now, is still the Kingdom of Kaolin, and the electors are not without restrictions in Aitaria. All governments on the earth and the countries of Aitaria have signed relevant provisions - the election In this world, the caller must not only abide by most of the laws and moral consensus on the earth, but also abide by most of the laws and regulations of the indigenous country where he is located.
Collaboration with cultists is strictly prohibited. Violators will not only be wanted by various countries in Etalia, but will also bear corresponding legal responsibilities when returning to Earth - which is equivalent to participating in various illegal gatherings and cults in reality. and terrorist organizations.
Although there have been some crazy fanatics in the Stargate era for so many years, it has never happened that an entire guild colluded with a cult.
After all, how could any Chosen One involve himself in the real world for the sake of Etalia? No matter how lawless they are, they still have to accept the constraints of their real identities.
But she had to admit that Fang Yu's considerations were very possible, and those words were like opening a Pandora's box, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she became.
"Could they be deceived by the Dragon Worship Cult... How dare they do this..." Hongye muttered to himself incomprehensibly.
Fang Yu shook his head: "It is possible, but the possibility is very small. It is impossible for them not to know the Dragon Worshipers. I have seen the corpses of the Dragon Worshipers in the forest outside."
Hongye was speechless and said uneasily: "I have to tell other people about this immediately and inform the guild."
"Wait a minute," Fang Yu felt like a string had been touched in his heart, and some broken chains in his mind seemed to be connecting with each other: "Did you just say that these undead only appeared today?"
Hongye was stunned for a moment.
She looked at Fang Plover and nodded: "Is there any problem?"
"It's a big problem." Fang Yu looked serious and answered word by word. "I think I've found the source of everything that's happened to Dolifen."
When everyone heard this, they stopped and looked at him.
