After the combat meeting, Luo Fengyun came to the front line.

“…… Sure enough, as soon as you set foot on the battlefield, your blood will boil. Luo Fengyun suppressed the urge of the bloodline, "It's time to prepare." ”

Luo Fengyun leaned on [Underwood] and began to close his eyes and fall asleep.

……

The next morning.

Luo Fengyun changed into his own standard armor and came to the front line.

"Good morning, everyone. Luo Fengyun held the helmet of standard armor in one hand and came to the rendezvous place.

"Yo, little brother, you really changed your armor, you really look like a general. Sixteen Night whistled and said.

“…… Well, is it just going according to the previous plan?" Luo Fengyun didn't say much, just asked.

"Well, go according to the plan. Sixteen Nights nodded.

"Well, then, let me get out of the way. ”

Luo Fengyun silently condensed his magic power, and the magic power of his whole body turned into a pair of wings, and then unfolded.

"I'll explore the way first. After Luo Fengyun finished speaking, he rose into the sky, "The ground will be handed over to you!"

His target is the ancient city of the vampires.

"Ha, let's finish it before the little brother comes down. Sixteen Nights twisted his neck and said.

……

"Whew-" Luo Fengyun took out half of his magic power and used it to accelerate.

He's getting farther and farther off the ground......

Now, it's three kilometers above the ground.

And above, there is also a mutation.

A black singularity appeared in a few steps away from the vampire ancient city. The thing suspended in mid-air seems to absorb all the light, but it doesn't have a three-dimensional presence.

If you want to give an example - it's like a black disc. Obviously, this singularity only has the sense of existence in two-dimensional space, but no matter which angle you look at, it also appears as a sphere.

“…… That's ......" Luo Fengyun narrowed his eyes

The singularity suddenly changed its appearance and began to tremble constantly.

- Shrinkage, change, expansion. Then came the resentment and murderous aura that poured out of the dark abyss—

Feeling that the fingers of the god of death seemed to have touched his neck, Luo Fengyun's face suddenly changed.

"Do you think I can kill anyone?!"

Luo Fengyun opened his eyes coldly, and at the same time, following the instinctive call of his body, he entered the state of dragonization.

In the sky where countless thunders thunder fell one after another, the singularity showed its true face. With the rumbling thunder as the background, a figure stands quietly, and the coat that conveys the demeanor of a king flutters in the wind.

Whenever the thunder light illuminated the earth together, the long golden hair shone with dazzling brilliance.

- Laeticia Decrea, the Demon King.

"Disobedient little maid, give me a little peace!" Luo Fengyun dodged Leticia's thrown spear in a strange posture in the air, and at the same time pulled out the wind control.

"Xiao Fengyun, be careful, at least, Ninth Order!"

The sound of controlling the wind made Luo Fengyun cheer up.

Laeticia rushed towards her target with crimson eyes, raising her countless spears transformed from dragon shadows to aim.

But—

"It's all said - give me some peace!" Luo Fengyun's figure split into three, dodged the spear, and rushed towards Leticia again.

However, when Leticia entered Luo Fengyun's perception range, Luo Fengyun frowned.

That's not Leticia.

Or -

"I see, is it a gift from Laeticia?" After Luo Fengyun avoided the spear, the king's treasure behind him opened, and the dense golden ripples spat out the sword, spear and halberd, and bounced off the black spear that burst out.

"Then be honest with me!" Luo Fengyun's wings were pierced by a spear, but he didn't hesitate too much, but rushed forward with a faster speed.

"Iris, bloom quietly—" Luo Fengyun stretched out his right hand as he approached Leticia.

A sealing technique supported by an inherent barrier!

"It's successful—" Luo Fengyun sighed when he saw the pitch-black ball in his hand.

"I hope it's too late......" Luo Fengyun's body surged with even greater magical power, and the dragonification was also suppressed back.

Leticia ...... Wait for me!" Luo Fengyun pressed his footsteps, and then the whole person flew into the air at a faster speed.

"Ned ...... Can you sense Laeticia's location?" Luo Fengyun used his consciousness to talk to his own beast.

"No problem, I'll take you there!" Nidhogg immediately activated his magic and diverted Luo Fengyun away.

……

The ancient city of the vampires, the throne of the zodiac.

"Ah...... Well...... Ahhh......h

Laeticia's body throbbed violently, and she regained consciousness.

My whole body was sweaty and hot, and my skin was slightly red.

The body also produces severe fatigue and weariness.

She flicked her dazzling blonde hair from side to side, looking around with a hazy consciousness.

"Whew...... Call...... ...... is here?"

The unlit room was a bit dark, and the distinctive smell of stone buildings irritated Leticia's nostrils.

The space is filled with a certain nostalgic atmosphere, and it seems that this is a place that is familiar to me.

After observing the environment for a while, Leticia noticed the shiny crystals laid on her head, and finally realized where she was.

"Huang ...... Throne of the Zodiac...... Why am I here—"

"Ah, Leticia, are you awake?" Leticia was startled and quickly looked around.

I saw Yao, Jack, and Elder Garoro all in front of me.

"Yao...... Jack...... Huh...... Even Garoro ......"

"Well, it's nostalgic, Leticia. We haven't seen each other in about twenty years, have we?"

Garoro grinned, revealing seemingly healthy teeth.

Laeticia didn't understand why Garoro was here, but after noticing the chains tied to the throne, she finally grasped her situation.

"Really...... Am I the Demon King again......" Leticia whispered with a melancholy expression, and the impact of her previous invasion of her body was answered.

"That's right, even daring to let his own gifts attack his master. Luo Fengyun's faint voice sounded in the void, and Luo Fengyun's figure appeared in front of the throne.

"Master?!"

"Fengyun?!"

"Yao, you're here too. Luo Fengyun nodded, "Leticia, wait a minute, I'll find a way to get you out." ”

Luo Fengyun immediately began to study the contract document in his hand.

"But I was really shocked. Because at that time, the canary sister said, 'I have defeated [the Demon King] Dracula!', so I always thought that she had made you a subordinate ......" Garoro stopped talking, and Leticia lowered her head with a melancholy expression.

The reason why Garoro was so clear about the vampire's background was because the sources of the information were Leticia herself and the previous rescuer, Canary.

Leticia moved on the throne and looked up at the ceiling, "All sorts of things happened then. The Canary didn't crack the game, but cut me off from the game by fulfilling the condition of "making the game interrupt indefinitely". ”

"That's what it is...... So, what about the canary sister, who was also missing three years ago?"

"Ah...... Well. But you also know that no matter where that guy goes, he should live a happy life. ”

That's right! Garoro laughed merrily.

Seeing Garoro's smiling face, Leticia's face became even more melancholy.

"Right...... By the way, Garoro, what are you doing here......?"

"Of course, I'm here to crack your game. Isn't it, Miss Yao?"

Hearing Garoro's call, Yao, who was probing around the throne, raised his head.

"Well, but I only have to solve the third victory condition. Yao replied with only one sentence, and continued to inspect the area around the throne.

Luo Fengyun glanced at her in surprise, and then looked at the third victory condition-

Collect the shattered starry sky and dedicate the beast belt to the throne.

Luo Fengyun also immediately began to think about the next information.

Maybe the floor had already been investigated, and she began to scrutinize the walls of the stone chamber. Soon after, the sound of pressing some dimple was heard.

"With ......! Jack, where is this?"

"Well, I think that's the direction of the Virgin Palace. ”

"Thank you. Then place the fragments of the Virgen Palace here, and then just use this side as a benchmark to distinguish the twelve equal divisions......"

There was a click! Laeticia, who didn't know that her city actually had such a mechanism, couldn't help but widen her eyes and be taken aback.

"Yao...... Isn't that what we have in our temple? What the hell are you doing......?"

"......, Laeticia, don't you know what the game is about?"

Yao looked back at Leticia in a daze.

Leticia's heart involuntarily beat hard, but there was nothing to hide, "Actually, this game is something that was made by someone else, and it is very different from the original game content of [Organizer's Permission]. ”

"Is that so? Then the mechanism in this room has nothing to do with the game......" Yao said as he shoved another shard into it.

Then she stopped and looked back at Letitia.

"Leticia, isn't this Sky City originally a satellite - no, should I say it's a castle that circles around the world?"

This abrupt questioning made Leticia gasp in surprise.

"yes, yes. We vampires are a race that monitors the world's system tree in order to prevent it from losing order, and the racial changes caused by bloodsucking are also an effect of this. ”

"Really? That's a surveillance satellite...... Well, I didn't expect that. ”

Click!

"What I'm installing is supposed to be an item that keeps the vampire's castle on the right track, and it's also the second solution to [Shattered Starry Sky]...... These fragments of the armillary sphere. ”

Leticia took another breath as the sound of a fourth piece being put in place.

- SUN-SYNCHRONOUS-ORBITin-VAMPIRE-KING's third victory condition.

FIRST OF ALL, [SUN-SYNCHRONOUS-ORBIT] SHOULD BE TRANSFORMED INTO THE TERM "SUN-SYNCHRONOUS ORBIT".

From this noun, the word "beast belt" is interpreted as "Zodiac". The first explanation of the "shattered starry sky" that comes to mind from this keyword is the "zodiac" and the celestial division.

However, this alone will only lead to inexplicable sentences such as "dedication to the zodiac".

Since "dedication to the shattered starry sky" is a condition for victory, the "shattered starry sky" must be a metaphor for something that can be given and has a definite substance.

Yao stuffed the tenth fragment into it, puffed up his little chest a little proudly, and said:

"Next up is the application of The-PIED-PIPER-of-HAMELIN. Just as the [False Inheritance] and the [True Inheritance] are objects that can be [broken and established], this [Broken Starry Sky] should also be something that can be [broken and dedicated] and has a starry sky drawn...... In other words, the answer to the "armillary sphere" will eventually be obtained.

"What...... What ......!" Leticia exclaimed sincerely.

She probably didn't expect that Yao, who was so distressed until the game started, would be able to attack the bounty game she held.

"It's amazing...... impressive, Yao!" Luo Fengyun admired Yao's cleverness.

“…… Thanks to the willingness of Mr. Garoro, Jack, and the others to help, I was able to solve the puzzles. And the biggest reason is because I've seen the situation of [The-PIED-PIPER-of-HAMELIN]. ”

"What is there to be humble! Learn from the achievements of your comrades and create your own! This is the most ideal study in the community!" said Leticia in a rare tone.

Yao, who always has a little lonely shadow on his body, actually cooperates with others to play a strategy game, and also says that this is the credit of Comrade Luo Fengyun.

As an elder in the community, there is nothing more joyful.

(I thought they had always been troubled children...... It turns out that everyone is growing...... ）

Letiticia gazed at Yao with peace of mind, and sat back in the throne as if she had dropped a burden from her shoulders.

From the first time they met, her aesthetic vision was not wrong, and these three people were indeed objects that could be entrusted to the community with peace of mind.

Leticia threw her head back and exhaled in relief.

And Luo Fengyun also started his second round of cracking.
