435 the man in the sky
f * ck, those in the Twilight Forest, come online quickly. There’s probably going to be a war there!
In the middle of the night, a message rang on the phones of countless Northern Alliance players, calling for the group of passersby closest to the area.
“What’s wrong?”
Zhang Qi had just finished watching a healing film at home when he suddenly noticed the message on his phone in the College’s game group.
Originally, they had planned to camp and stay in the game for the next few days, but they couldn’t help but be too busy with the new year approaching. There weren’t many people online tonight.
Hence, they decided to go offline together and set off again at the appointed time the next day.
“Something big happened. The palace of Azur just announced that it is about to take off to the sky for everyone within a 50-kilometer radius. Then, those who enter within those six hours will be thrown out in one go.”
A student who had just finished browsing the forum sent a message to Zhao Xu’s school’s gaming group.
After four months of preparation, this game Contact Group now had more than a hundred people.
“isn’t there one gate a day? It’s only been two days, right?” Zhang Qi slapped his thigh. They had only been halfway through their journey these few days. It would already be considered fast if they could reach the Twilight Forest on the fifth day.
Who would’ve thought that the situation would suddenly turn around so quickly, and that it was almost over?
” that’s right. if it wasn’t for the announcement from the palace of azur, i’m afraid that midsummer’s boss would have made a fortune without a word. ”
” how did he get rich? the door hasn’t even been opened. he probably didn’t get it, right? ” Zhang Qi’s classmate, du Nan, was chatting with his family by the fire. He chewed on the potato chips in his mouth and typed on his phone to reply.
“naive.” Someone immediately retorted, ” the announcement that the palace of Azur was about to leave and the announcement that zhongxia had just passed through the second door were not too long apart. It completely shows that the Ascension of the palace of Azur to the sky is definitely related to him.
go to the forums and take a look. Basically, everyone is speculating that the player called zhongxia found a ‘shortcut’ and directly obtained the divine weapon. The strongest player is about to be born.
that’s why the adventurers in the surrounding towns and cities are trying to rush over to the area of the explosion in the Twilight Forest. They’re just not happy with the suppression of the anti-magic field.
“If any of you are in the Twilight Forest, hurry up and get a share.”
This sentence instantly ignited the curiosity of the night owls who hadn’t slept yet. Several of them directly guessed the scale of the next battle.
it was a pity that most of zhao xu’s arthur players were born in winter city. even if they traveled without stopping, it would be impossible for them to get to the twilight forest, where the explosion had taken place, in two days.
The class monitor, Fang xiyue, had just finished drying her hair. Looking at the heated discussion in the group, she couldn’t help but ridicule, ” “If the other party doesn’t have a divine artifact, you’ll be wasting your time going. If the other party has it, you’ll just be giving your heads away.”
“That’s right.” Someone in the group immediately replied, ” besides, the other party is a player. Arthur’s natives have to investigate no matter what. They have the capital to do so. But what can we players do even if we catch them?”
it’s not like they said that the divine weapon would drop after killing the owner. In the end, it’s still like drawing water with a wicker basket.
As soon as these words came out, the players who had been blinded by the divine weapon suddenly came back to their senses.
They had almost forgotten that zhongxia was also a player who had five Lifestones.
If the other party had been more decisive and directly used the invincible suicidal teleportation spell, they really wouldn’t have been able to stop him much.
However, the members of this group of students were a mix of good and bad, and immediately voices of objection emerged. a bunch of sand tea leaves. Who asked you to snatch the divine artifact? ”
“Have you all forgotten about the harvest from the battle of fallen star Lake? Did he forget about the armor that he had taken from the cavalrymen? Arthur doesn’t have a setting where the bodies of minions will be refreshed after they are killed!”
this sentence instantly woke him up from his dream.
The players naturally couldn’t pick up divine weapons, but once they started a war, it meant that gold would be everywhere.
” zhongxia ” who had a divine weapon naturally did not have the time to pick up the equipment from the corpse. at this time, as long as they had a clear target, they could definitely get another harvest.
Those who were killed by zhongxia would definitely be on the ground.
In an instant, everyone’s topic shifted to how to pick up equipment, and for a time, there were all kinds of discussions.
A few of the good priests wanted to say that it was a little immoral to pick up equipment from corpses, but seeing the intensity of the discussion, they silently took back their words.
Until an awkward sentence appeared-
“By the way, which one of you is in the Duskwood now?”
“……”
————–
“Ah!”
At this time, Nan Xiaowei, who was hiding under the quilt, was sharing gossip with her best friend. After seeing the notification in the group, she almost lost her grip.
Because they hadn’t even completed their training, no one would even bother to continue training in the game at night.
She immediately turned around and lifted the duvet on her body. She didn’t even care that she was only wearing a thin nightgown and rushed into Zhao Xu’s room like an arrow.
Zhao Xu’s room wasn’t locked from the inside, so Nan Xiaowei barged in.
however, the other party was currently wearing a simulation helmet and lying on the bed with a thin blanket over her.
The indicator lights on the helmet kept flashing. It was obvious that the owner of the helmet was in a state of extreme excitement.
This was the complete opposite of what should have been a peaceful environment at night.
Nan Xiaowei was still very excited and was about to ask Zhao Xu if he had really gotten a divine artifact, but when she saw him still struggling in the game, she fell into deep thought.
After a long time, Nan Xiaowei smiled and sat silently on the carpet in the room. She held the knife in her hand and replied to her best friend.
“He will win.”
————-
As dawn approached, the entire Palace of Azur began to shake.
Zhao Xu, who had been preparing to close his eyes and rest, also noticed that the stone tablet in the middle of the hall was making a soft buzzing sound.
At this moment, he was also constantly adjusting his emotions.
“Master, aren’t you going to release the two legendary golems?” Vivian asked. At this time, she had already firmly fixed her mithril armor.
“It’s okay, let’s play safe first.” Zhao Xu waved the Necromancer’s staff in his hand and said, ” if the fighting power outside is really strong enough, it won’t be too late to let them out then.
As he spoke, he looked ahead as if he could see through the grayish-white stone wall and the adventurers who were gathering and patrolling around the crater in the Twilight Forest.
Although there was an announcement from the palace of Azur, he still made a four day delay.
This anti-magic field was currently his greatest cover.
The higher the status of the people, the more powerful they were, the less likely they were to waste their time in the vicinity of this place in the first two days. It was more likely that they would wait six days before gathering here to intercept and kill.
Even if these powerhouses were woken up in the middle of the night, they might not be able to cover the 50-kilometer journey in just two hours.
Therefore, the only thing he had to worry about was dealing with the organized forces, such as the city guards of the nearby towns.
After dawn, they were naturally the guardians of justice on the surface. But in the hazy night, once a face cloth was covered, no one could tell who was who.
“Thump.”
Suddenly, a clear bell rang.
“Thump.”
This time, the sound seemed to hit the heart of the people in the Twilight Forest, waking them up from their sleep.
In an instant, everyone’s eyes turned to the source of the bell, which was also the position of the crater.
For a moment, a choir-like hymn sounded in the empty Hall, as if it had a mixed effect.
Vivian also fell into this ethereal mood, and her eyes slowly closed.
“Let’s go,”
Zhao Xu instantly found the right spot and jumped up. He used the staff in his hand to stand up.
Then, he felt a heavy weight.
“We’re taking off from the ground.” Vivian exclaimed, and her eyes immediately opened, revealing a bright light.
The palace of Azur, which had been rising into the air like a rocket, suddenly trembled violently and then started to increase in power. Zhao Xu quickly grabbed onto Vivian’s hand and tried to maintain their balance in the hall.
A ray of white light flashed past, bathing the two of them in holy light as if they had been blessed.
——
“What’s wrong?”
“The ground seems a little strange.”
the crater where the palace of azur had landed was the bottom of a semi-circular crater that had been deeply dug. the center of the crater, where lava was boiling, had also formed a large ugly black spot because of the cooling.
However, countless adventurers had already climbed down into the cooled pothole. They held torches and oil lamps, looking for traces of Midsummer’s appearance in the dim night light.
Just as the two teammates who were mumbling to themselves began to squat down, they wanted to check the ground under their feet and see what was there.
However, a scene that they would never forget for the rest of their lives began.
A mysterious Palace that looked like a fortress burst out from the ground just like that. The explosion shattered countless pieces of stiff gravel on the ground. In an instant, dust and stone rained down on the heads of the people searching in the meteorite crater.
However, their attention was no longer on the top of their heads. Instead, their eyes were shining as they stared at the palace of Azur, which was floating in the air.
The palace emitted a mysterious white light, and the adventurers ‘corpses fell to the ground one after another.
ah, it’s Captain Taya from Luca city. I didn’t expect him to sneak into the palace of Azur.
look, that’s great mage Mulin. Why is he in there too? ”
As everyone slowly recognized the faces of the powerhouses that were emitted from the white light, this speculation instantly became endless.
However, these voices slowly became weaker.
Because they noticed that these were the names that once represented power and might.
At this moment, the river of time was mocking them.
The white light scattered down, and all that was left were corpses.
They didn’t even dare to snatch the equipment from these corpses with identities. Later, professional adventurers would naturally go and do business.
“What’s that?”
Suddenly, one of the players noticed that the corpses had almost completely dispersed. He pointed at the two figures that had descended from the mysterious white light and asked.
“It should be that zhongxia.”
An adventurer said as he looked at the palace of Azur and the crowd below it.
Above everyone’s head, where everyone’s eyes were focused.
A mage wearing a mysterious robe and a cloak of glistening Starlight rose into the air as if he was standing on flat ground.
He held a long metal Super Magic staff in one hand and a legendary Necromancer staff made of finger bones in the other.
The man looked up at the sky and looked down at the stars.
