"sharp."
Lu Zheng looked at the strong wind surrounding Zuo Chang and felt vaguely familiar.
Under the influence of the "mechanism", he could not recognize Zuo Chang's face, but the special effects of Gale Wind Swordsmanship did not change.
However, compared to the last time he showed his skills in front of Lu Zheng, Zuo Chang is now even better!
Lu Zheng felt familiar, but didn't think too deeply.
Zuo Chang liberated his ability a little, which indirectly played a role in breaking up the fight. Unfortunately, he moved too late.
The transformation demon was weak and was severely injured under the strong attack of Lu Zheng and three others.
At this moment——
It lost too much blood and was already dying.
The helmeted skeleton was also no match for the historian Shen Lezhi. Although he had not lost his life at this moment, he was unable to fight anymore.
Lu Zheng and the other three men were full of fighting spirit and glared at Zuo Chang!
But, no one took action.
The wind and clouds are coming, and dragons and tigers are waiting for you. Zuo Chang was using all his strength, and standing still was like a high wall. There seemed to be infinite pressure in his movements, which made people fear him from the bottom of his heart.
Lu Zheng felt the pressure.
He wasn't sure.
The cloaked woman assessed the situation. She glanced at the purple-skinned demon not far away and whispered: "Lu Zheng, sometimes, escape is a manifestation of strategy."
Gulu.
Shen Lezhi swallowed his saliva and continued: "All kings who have made great achievements have one characteristic - they do not shy away from failure. The so-called victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists. Our goal is to win the battle for the title. Why care about an irrelevant battle? The outcome of an important encounter? I’m well-read, I won’t lie to you, Lu Zheng, go first!”
Lu Zheng frowned, unable to make a decision.
He looked at Zuo Chang with a solemn expression.
Until now.
Zuo Chang has discovered an abnormality - he may not be the same now.
Otherwise it would be difficult to explain Lu Zheng's current appearance.
He looked like he wanted to pounce on him and fight to the death, which was completely different from the tolerant and kind young master Zuo Chang had in his mind.
After listening to the advice of the cloaked woman and Shen Lezhi, Zuo Chang shook his head silently.
He said: "Lu Zheng, you have thought clearly!"
"?!"
Lu Zheng was startled and asked curiously: "Do you know my name?"
Zuo Chang didn't answer, just said: "As long as your team wins in the end, even the members who are eliminated midway can still get the honor and benefits of the 'Champion Brave'. It's your trip to fight with me here. The purpose?”
Lu Zheng was silent.
He narrowed his eyes in displeasure.
Zuo Chang raised his hand and continued: "No, right? I can feel that the two players you lost have a strong desire to win. They attacked me without hesitation, not to let you avenge them. , but want to get the reward of the title battle! If you fight with me here, you are living up to their expectations!"
You feel a ghost!
The cloaked woman really wanted to scold Zuo Chang like this.
but……
After hearing Zuo Chang's words, she suddenly realized that this inexplicable "coordinate" in front of her seemed to know Lu Zheng better than she did!
yes.
Using "danger" and "knowing current affairs" to persuade deer to collect their hands is difficult to achieve.
If you use "friendship" and "the expectations of dead teammates" to persuade, the effect will obviously be outstanding!
Let's see!
Although Lu Zheng didn't express anything, he was obviously hesitating, and his fighting spirit had obviously faded.
It won't be long before he makes the right choice.
"well."
After a while, Lu Zheng sighed lowly and no longer had any plans.
He was about to say something when suddenly there was the sound of horse hooves.
Everyone present turned around and saw smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and more than ten horses galloping towards them with a terrifying momentum.
Zuo Chang looked at them from a distance and asked curiously: "This is... the Gold Digger Knights? How could they appear at this time!"
As someone who has played a championship game, Zuo Chang is no stranger to the Gold Diggers Knights.
This is a very important organization in the plot. They are the guards directly under the royal family of the old Golden Empire, and they gather the elites from all over the country.
There were not many gold diggers, less than thirty including the commander.
But their average cultivation level is as high as the eighth realm. In this era, they are considered to be influential figures and should not be underestimated.
According to normal procedures, after all the "Advanced Exorcist Teams" are assembled, the Gold Digger Knights will lead them into the Blood Mist Ridge to start a desperate battle with the demon group "Glory Evolution".
Why now...
Debuted early?
The knights were all wearing black armor, and they were all powerful and powerful.
The horses they sat on were not only fire-walking horses with demon blood, but also wore the same armor as the knights on the horses.
The first one was a noble man with flaxen hair.
He looked at the body of the transformation demon on the ground, then turned to look at Lu Zheng: "I am the commander of the Gold Digger Knights and the prince of the old gold empire. Your Excellency, exorcist, let me ask you - this transformation demon is Did you kill them?"
Lu Zheng was startled and replied: "We killed him, Your Highness."
"Okay. Reward."
The prince turned around and said hello, and another knight stepped forward and threw a package on the ground.
Gold bars two fingers wide and one finger long were scattered from the package.
Zuo Chang glanced twice.
These gold bars...
Can you take it out?
Lu Zheng didn't look away and said, "Your Highness, what my friends and I want is gold, but your promise - to kill the demon transformer and be promoted to the senior exorcist team immediately."
The prince looked at him: "Do you want to conquer Blood Mist Ridge with me?"
"yes."
"……May I have your name?"
Lu Zheng lowered his head slightly: "I am Lu Zheng, these two are my friends."
Lu Zheng pointed at the cloaked woman and Shen Lezhi.
The prince's face was pale, and he raised his whip and said: "Then follow, Mr. Lu Zheng! The devils have been raging here for too long! We should and must expel them! In the kingdom of His Majesty the Emperor, I will not allow any sin. Rampant, giving death to the demons and peace to my subjects!”
The prince took a shot, but he didn't get the response he expected.
After a moment, Shen Lezhi raised his hands high and shouted loudly: "Glory to Your Highness! Glory to the Gold Digger Knights! Glory to the Old Gold Empire!"
"oh oh……"
Immediately, the cloaked woman and Lu Zheng raised their hands and cheered symbolically.
The prince was dissatisfied with their slowness!
If it were his subordinates, they would have bowed down and shouted long live. How could they be so listless like the three people in front of them!
So, these common people...
Disappointing.
The prince looked at Zuo Chang, who was standing far away, and asked, "Who is that?"
Lu Zheng was startled and silent.
Zuo Chang's mood stabilized and he said: "Your Highness, I am a wandering exorcist. I just noticed that there was a fight here, so I came to take a look."
"I see. I wish you peace and good luck, Exorcist."
The prince was uninterested.
He turned the horse's head and ordered: "Come here and bring the body of the Transformation Demon back. Mr. Lu Zheng, when you return to Little Mascus, you can come to the mansion to find me directly. The crusade against Blood Mist Ridge... is here Recently!”
A knight in black armor volunteered to stay.
Lu Zheng and others watched the Gold Digger Knights leave. They looked at each other and immediately activated their flying equipment and soared into the sky——
They are elite young people from 1024.
Conveniences such as flying equipment are of course something everyone has.
Only Zuo Chang and the black-armored knight who took the initiative to stay were left at the scene.
"Aha!"
The black-armored knight took off his helmet, his silver hair flowing smoothly.
She curled her red lips and her green eyes were full of joy: "Qiang Qiang! It's lychee!"
Zuo Chang looked at her, a little surprised.
Lychee hugged the helmet and walked closer: "Don't you want to say something?"
Zuo Chang hesitated for a moment. He recalled Lu Zheng's reaction when he faced him and asked, "Do I look like Zuo Chang now?"
"It's completely different. In my eyes, your face is very unfamiliar, and there is no memory point."
"Then how are you sure it's me?"
"Intuition. Miss Lychee is an intuitive person. I have told you before that you are not a common person, so you will not fail easily."
Lychee was full of confidence and did not doubt her judgment at all.
She stood on tiptoes and raised her hand, placing her palm against the side of Zuo Chang's face: "Zuo Chang, you triggered a hidden mechanism, right? Your team's short saw lost its response as a result, but you were not eliminated. But continue this game with another identity.”
[The demon of change died, just like in real history. You had a chance to save it. 】
[The world line disrupted by you has not changed, and you are no longer special. 】
A prompt message flashed before your eyes.
Immediately, Zuo Chang's coordinates disappeared from everyone's perception, and his team's short saw came online again.
The hidden appearance also appeared in front of Lychee.
Zuo Chang took off the palm she placed on his cheek and held it with his backhand: "Sensitive intuition and precise judgment. I really feel your trust."
A little bit of pride appeared in Lychee's starry eyes. She shook her head and said with a happy face, "You are indeed the extremely smart Miss Lychee! I like myself more and more!"
