124 Pleasure and revenge
"Look, isn't it all quiet?"
Roger's voice did not fall.
On the Mount of Truth.
The blaring sirens sounded incessantly!
Waterfall-like defensive enchantments descend frantically in an attempt to fend off attacks from the unknown.
A transcendent mage who stepped on the magic carpet flew out with a pale face.
He flew around the gap in Floating Island No. 5 and circled around it.
When he returns to the enchantment on the Mount of Truth.
His face had turned white to a piece of paper.
Wherever Roger could see with the naked eye, on the Mount of Truth, a large number of mages poured out.
They ride magic carpets or broomsticks, and they are menacing!
That's the mage legion that the floating island was once proud of!
"Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
In the midst of the chaos.
Someone was shouting loudly.
……
"I'm going to talk to them!"
Shar hurriedly said.
"No, you don't."
Roger slowly opened his right hand and aimed it at the Mountain of Truth!
"It's too noisy."
The next moment.
The sirens on the Mount of Truth have stopped abruptly!
Roger relaxed his palms slightly.
His eyes were fixed on the transcendent mage who was stepping on the magic carpet.
Then he gently placed the index finger of his left hand on his lips.
The transcendent mage had understood what had happened in the last moment.
He closely followed Roger's every move.
When Roger made this movement, his heart moved, and he involuntarily followed and put his index finger on his lips.
Below him.
There are still people in the mage army who poured out of the nest shouting:
"Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
The face of the transcendent mage was blue and red, and as soon as he stepped on the magic carpet, the figure flickered-
In the next second, he slammed his staff and knocked the man unconscious.
The remaining members were a little overwhelmed.
The transcendent mage did not dare to speak.
He just silently put his index finger to his lips.
It's like there's magic.
A member of the mage legion followed suit—the index finger of his left hand, lightly pressed between his lips, without making a sound.
This action is pretty standard.
Won the admiring gaze of the transcendent mage.
The rest of the people woke up.
He fell silent and put his left index finger to his lips.
Time.
Outside the Mountain of Truth.
Hundreds of elite mages hung in the air in a dilemma.
Their expressions were serious, and they were silent.
The message that evaporated from the world on Floating Island 5 finally began to circulate among the mages in a silent encrypted form.
Their index fingers pressed against their lips.
Began to tremble slightly.
……
"What are these people coming from?"
Roger asked.
Shar said quickly:
"A third party, or a neutral."
"I've never done anything too bad, and I'm not a good person."
Roger nodded:
"Then let them stand a little longer."
Shar looked at the transcendent mage silently and gave the other a look.
Although the other party failed to comprehend, he still maintained a motionless posture.
The scene is serious and comical.
Shar wanted to laugh a little, but he didn't dare to laugh.
She subconsciously turned her head to look at the side face of the man on the edge of the floating island.
The latter's expression was still so calm.
It's as if doing a trivial thing.
Unconsciously.
She pressed her hand against her hip bone.
His face was crimson.
……
Naturally, this strange scene on the Mount of Truth also fell into the eyes of the inhabitants of the earth.
With more and more people discovering the disappearance of Floating Island No. 5.
There are also more and more people looking up at the sky.
Later.
Many people forget the purpose of looking up at the sky.
They just watched as everyone looked up, and they couldn't help but look up as well.
—————
Someone whispered:
"What are the nerves of the old man? Lost a floating island? ”
"Maybe it's an experiment, or some kind of ritual, or maybe we'll learn from it?"
"There is nothing wrong with following in the footsteps of the strong."
When these chaotic voices come out.
Things got out of hand.
More and more people began to imitate the movements of the transcendent mage-
With a serious expression, he bowed his head slightly, and gently put his index finger on his lips, his eyes usually in front of him.
Up and down the floating island.
10,000 fingers.
The atmosphere suddenly became eerie and comical.
……
"More than 10,000 people unconsciously imitate your movements, and you have achieved a new milestone: the will of the strong"
"The Will of the Strong: If questioning may shed blood, why not obey?"
"Corresponding Title: ()"
……
See this scene.
Roger also thought it was funny.
But he wasn't ready to come forward again.
Today, these few minutes have pretended to be forced by the past ten years.
Not in line with his low-key style.
Think of it.
He turned around and put down the black coffin!
A horned demon jumped out with a scream.
The members of the "primordial supremacy" who have long been frightened are in the face of the brutal invasion of the macho brothers.
There is only one way left to kill the neck.
He began to walk back.
Shar hurried to follow.
Her movements are a little unnatural.
"Mr. Hachi......"
She asked, a little nervously:
"I—What should I do?"
Roger stopped, looked back and smiled:
"Didn't you say that no one can take your masseur from your turf?"
Shar was stunned.
Roger frowned:
"You don't want to fire me, do you?"
Share's big eyes suddenly lit up, and he replied with a shallow smile:
"I thought, I know what to do."
Roger nodded lightly.
He never looked back.
Strode towards Shar's castle.
There is a huge amount of information on the data bar.
One of the sections is marked in red.
……
"You used the Wind Master's Drifting Cloud Palm, Mark -1"
"Hint: Your body is under the load of 'Immortal' and you are about to enter a state of weakness and punishment, duration: 7 months"
"Hint: Your right hand is more than 70% damaged, and the recovery effect of the transcendent body is continuing, estimated natural repair time: 36 months"
……
"Fortunately, there is still a strong top, which can make me finish it roundly."
Deep down, Roger thanked the Gray Dwarf of Zedi once again.
Tenacity is so useful.
It's simply his "invisible guardian"!
And this battle down.
Roger earns countless XP.
It's a pity that because of the distance, I can't lose the killing order, and I have a lot of expertise.
Therefore, the actual benefits brought to Roger by hand-kneading floating islands are not much.
But there were still surprises.
……
That's a special notice.
……
"You killed 396 mages and destroyed Floating Island 5, avenging your fellow martial artists, and for the first time, you achieved the rules of chivalry: Pleasure and Vengeance."
"Revenge: +500 for your Chivalry, +1 for your Class Expansion Slot"
……
And so it goes.
Roger has two expansion slots on hand, and the space for compatible classes is abundant.
He even had the thought:
"As long as I have enough expansion slots, I can include all the powerful classes except Mage."
Xia Yin is hidden and hidden, and he will do something to steal a secret gun.
Stealing a profession is such a thing.
Of course, it is no problem.
……
Then there's a lot of milestones.
Including "Turning the Clouds and Rain", "Mage Killer", "Miracle Force", "One-armed Youth", ...... And a whole bunch of weird milestones.
Their corresponding titles also inherit the same level as the milestone system has always been.
In short, all kinds of outrageous.
But the milestone points they provide are still tangible.
Roger glanced at it.
It's not far from the 101 point mark.
There may be new items that will appear at that time.
on this.
He's looking forward to it.
……
Nothing else was gained.
After the entire floating island was crushed.
Roger didn't even see an echo bead.
I don't know if it's because the fluttering cloud palm of the master of the music style is too fierce.
……
In the days that followed.
Roger lived a life of seclusion.
It wasn't long before he moved back to his home from Shar's castle.
He was accompanied by two wagons of books.
Improving himself during the days when he was recuperating was Roger's favorite thing to do.
And after that magical and funny "index finger day".
The evaporation incident on Floating Island 5 has become a taboo.
The mages were silent about it.
The rest of the people who tried to discuss the matter were also warned by the Hill of Truth.
As for the floating islands.
There are a lot of weird versions.
Some people say that on the day that the No. 5 floating island disappeared, he saw the appearance of the "Ember Cloud", and the gem city could not escape after all!
It is also said.
It was the people of the Truth Society who angered the gods, and the disappearance of the No. 5 floating island was only a slight punishment from the gods.
Someone else thinks.
Floating Island No. 5 has not disappeared, in fact, it has only become invisible.
Various versions of the rumors are flying.
It's been a long time.
People get used to it.
The new adventurers even thought that there should have been only 5 floating islands on the Hill of Truth.
Only a handful of martial artists on the surface vaguely guessed something.
Because after the "Index Finger Day".
The attitude of the people on the floating islands towards them has changed dramatically.
It's just that no matter how much they try to exhaust their imagination.
I can't figure out how Floating Island 5 disappeared out of thin air.
Gradually.
This became a strange story in Gem City.
And the hero of the story.
But it never appeared in the center of the stage.
……
Half a year later.
Floating Island No. 5.
Spread over a vast estate.
Horse-drawn carriages were slowly moving down the inner road.
The carriages eventually stopped in a plaza with a fountain.
The sorceress in a red dress opened the carriage herself.
Boxes of heavy items were skillfully brought out by the servants.
"This is the subsidy for this month."
"From the major floating islands, there is also the Mountain of Truth."
on the lawn.
Shar finds Roger, who has just put away the book:
"Various materials make up the majority, half of which are primordial stones, half of which are herbs, and even potions."
Roger shook his head:
"It's not necessary."
Shar grinned:
"There is a need."
"If you don't take it, they're afraid."
Roger nodded, and then couldn't help but mock:
"I haven't agreed to become the "honorary president" of the Truth Society, but this subsidy has been sent in a steady stream."
"The Truth Society is really rich."
Shar said seriously:
"Of course they have intentions."
Roger asked calmly:
"Someone looking for you?"
Shar snorted:
"Yes. Although I have killed all the centaurs who have a relationship with Millon and Thomas Sr., there is one fish that has slipped through the net - and that is Thomas Jr. ”
"He didn't go to Floating Island 5 that day, and I later learned that he was hiding in the Mountain of Truth."
"The current president, Bard, is a good old man, and he told me that he couldn't bear to kill a child, so he asked me to ask if I could make little Thomas your adopted son."
Righteous son?
Is this the legendary confession of a thief as a father?
Roger almost didn't laugh out loud.
The train of thought of these mages is strange.
But if you think about it, it's a last resort.
Roger yawned:
"How did you deal with it?"
Shar smiled softly:
"I told him directly that if he didn't want to be decent himself, someone would help him be decent."
"Little Thomas's death was not painful at all."
Roger nodded.
That's what he admires most about Share.
Smart enough.
Capable.
And also very obedient.
That's enough for Roger.
The two chatted for a while.
Finally.
Roger Says:
"You go and tell Bard that I have promised to be their "honorary president."
"But only if I go to the Mountain of Truth once."
……
That night.
Roger sat in the room and silently activated the "Detention Necromancy".
Korra the Soul quietly appeared.
"Master!"
"I convinced Marlena!"
"She agreed to be summoned by you"
There was joy in her tone that could not be concealed.
……
