Volume 5: The Elegant Tea Party (Remastered) Chapter 53: The Tea Party (The Beginning)

"Hurry up, hurry up, it's here, come on!" A human knight on a motley military horse led the way towards the ruins of Shasar, turning back to encourage his companions behind him.

There were five other people who followed this knight, all of them human knights, but they didn't seem to be in very good shape, and they were shaky, making people worry that they would fall off their horses in the next second.

However, in the end, the six knights managed to storm the ruins of Shasar.

"Ha, the time is just right, there are still five minutes left!" The knight who had led the way stopped and turned over and dismounted, helping the other companions to dismount and rest, "Don't look like a bear!" We are knights of light, the embodiment of justice! Manners, pay attention to manners, gentlemen! ”

"Brad, okay, let's lie down for a while!" After dismounting, a knight could not even stand on his feet, and fell directly on his butt and lay on the ground.

"Of course, you can rest for as long as you want!" The knight named Brad sat down against the rubble in the ruins with his other companion in his arms, and said, "We made it in, didn't we?" Justice will prevail! ”

"Justice will prevail!" Everyone was weak enough to conform to Braid's slogan, and although the voice was not loud, a firm will could be heard in it.

There are many kinds of people in this world, some people do not hesitate to sell their relatives for their own interests, and there are also people who do not hesitate to give their lives for the persistence in their hearts. They are the latter. The six human knights, led by Brad, are all players who are immersed in their roles and are dedicated to giving their lives for the sake of so-called light and justice.

It was at this moment that one of the knights said, "Hey, Brad, do you hear anything?" ”

"Huh? Like a song? Who's singing? Brad listened, and as if not satisfied with his current position, he climbed onto a stone pillar that was broken in two beside him, and looked into the distance.

[On that misty morning, I saw your smiling face]

[Just one glance, you took me captive]

[But when I turned around, you were nowhere to be found]

[You walk away slowly, the door slowly closes]

The ethereal and long singing pierced the night sky and reached Brad's ears far away, although it was only a cappella, but it did not detract from this beautiful timbre, rather, because it was a cappella, it was even more beautiful and moving.

【When will I see you again?】

【When will the sky stop raining】

【When will the stars shine at night?】

【When will I have you】

I don't know when, the knights who were originally sitting on the ground resting have already stood up, as if they were tempted by this song, and involuntarily faced the direction from which the song came, and they didn't even dare to listen to this beautiful song.

【Have you ever met you under that sun】

[That encounter seems to be a thousand years apart]

[Have I ever hugged you in that night]

[Every minute of that hug seems to be a thousand years]

Brad heard the sound coming from the middle of the ruins, and he jumped off the stone pillar and looked at his companions, who saw nothing but unwavering faith and unyielding will, and undauntless courage in the eyes of these knights.

"Gentlemen, let's go! No matter what evil lies ahead, light and justice will prevail! Brad held up his weapon, a peculiar spear, which had sharp blades at both ends, unlike ordinary knights' spears, "Who are we?" ”

"Knights of the Round Table!" The knights rolled over their horses, as if they had forgotten the tiredness and fatigue of their bodies!

"What are we fighting for?"

"Light and Justice!" The knights drew their weapons as if they were filled with endless power!

"Onward! To die in battle is glory! With a finger of his double-headed spear, Brad led his companions toward the center of the ruins.

The singing continues, and the closer you get to the center of the ruins, the clearer it becomes.

[I gave you my heart on that cold winter night]

[But you left me in the hot summer]

[Time flies, the stars dim]

[Only memories and this song accompany me]

When Zolene Britz arrived at the center of the ruins of Shasar, she realized that she was not alone.

This is the center of the ruins of Shasar and the centerpiece of this ancient kingdom buried in the desert, with several large weathered palaces standing here surrounded by an empty square.

On the last remaining dome of the palace, a fox-eared little Lori wearing a wide robe is singing and dancing on it, the cute little feet with the immature body twisting a beautiful dance, the ethereal song is slowly singing from the mouth of the little Lori.

At this time, there were already a lot of people standing sparsely in the square, and at a glance, it seemed that it was a world exposition, and there were all kinds of races, or groups of three or five, or scattered people, of course, there must be many people hidden in the ruins and corners around them.

【When will the sky stop raining】

[When will the stars shine again]

【When will I have you again】

【When will we be together forever】

As the last syllable slowly drifted away, the fox-eared little Lori also closed her eyes, enjoying the tranquility of the night sky with an intoxicated expression.

After a while, when there was already some whispering buzz in the square below, Yakumo Zi finally opened his eyes, stood up, looked at these "guests" in the square condescendingly, and said: "Welcome to this tea party, I am the second pillar of the Body Devouring Snake, and only here on behalf of all the Body Devouring Snake Apostles to pay high respect to all the warriors who have successfully reached here!" ”

Hearing Yakumo Zi's self-destructive identity, the voice in the square became louder and louder, obviously, many people couldn't imagine that such a soft and cute little Lori would be a senior member of the mysterious organization Body Devouring Snake, and it was also the second-ranked existence.

Zoreen looked around and noticed that the nearest one was a team of six players, four of whom turned out to be girls, and the Terran priest in a white priest's uniform was the most concerned to her. Zoreen couldn't believe how these people had made it through the terrible desert outside the ruins.

With her keen sense of being a werewolf, although Zorin was a little away from Camilla and them, she could still faintly hear their conversation.

The girl, dressed in green leather armor and carrying a longbow about the same height as her own, asked the female knight who appeared to be the leader, "Captain, is that fellow really the Apostle of the Snake of Bodyeater?" Looks like a kid at all! It can't be a lie, right? ”

Camilla and Sorian looked at each other and replied, "Angelica, don't underestimate anyone here, do you think ordinary people can appear here?" ”

Sorian glanced at the players around him, and said earnestly, "Everyone should be careful, these people are all masters!" ”

This can be seen not only by Thorian, but also by anyone who can stand in the ruins of Shasar, because the stupid people who can't see it are all dead.

"Although many of you were not invited, as the host of this tea party, for you uninvited guests, I should have asked you to leave first." Yakumo Murasaki, who was standing on the dome, said in a cute tone while playing with the wide cuffs of his robe.

Hearing Yakumo's words, the organized teams in the square immediately drew their weapons and waited for them, for fear of being accidentally attacked by these guys of unknown origin beside them, who knows which of them are members of the Devouring Snake.

"Don't be so nervous, you're not an uninvited guest, but we're not that stingy. Regardless, I'll do my best to entertain you, but I just hope you won't regret coming uninvited! Yakumo Zi smiled and said, "Ah, the time is up, so now, I announce, the tea party begins!" ”

As soon as Yakumo Zi's words fell, a light curtain suddenly appeared around the entire Shasar Ruins, and the light curtain continued to extend towards the sky, finally forming a hemispherical transparent shield, firmly wrapping the entire Shasar Ruins inside.

Looking at the situation in the square that was obviously starting to be chaotic, the corners of Yakumo Zi's mouth showed a smug smile: "From now on, within three hours, you will not be able to leave this ruin." But rest assured, your soul energy will not be consumed by the passage of time during this time. ”

"Nothing so good! What exactly do you want to do? Let's make it clear! In the square, an elf armed with a pair of slender stabbing swords stood up and said in a loud voice.

"Oh, are you in such a hurry to enjoy my hospitality?" Yakumo Murasaki covered her mouth and smiled, "Although you won't lose your soul energy because of time, but here, every time you die, you will be resurrected in a random location in this Shasar ruins after three minutes, and of course, the loss of soul energy will be twice as much as under normal circumstances!" ”

This bad news completely calmed the players in the square.

"Of course, I don't want to make this tea party deserted. See that magical barrier outside? In the entire ruins, there are a total of fifty magic array nodes, these magic nodes are the foundation that supports the existence of the magic barrier, each node has a magic gem, as long as the magic gem is taken off the node, and then placed on the altar in the center of this hall under my feet, the corresponding magic node will be destroyed. When all fifty magic nodes are destroyed, this magic barrier will disappear immediately, and you will naturally be able to leave. ”

"What if you don't destroy all the magic nodes in three hours?" Someone in the square asked.

"You should know that this is the capital of the Shahra Empire, an ancient empire that once existed in the Jeremanca Desert, right? The soldiers and civilians who perished with the ancient empire have been silently guarding this place, because this is also the place where their king sleeps. Believe me, these loyal people of the Shahra Empire will not let anyone disturb the king's sleep. Yakumo said as she pointed to the ruined stone buildings around her, and soon, someone saw the monsters rising from the ground in the ruins.

"These are the people of the Shahra Empire who are bound here by oath, and they will sacrifice any intruder that breaks into this holy city to their masters, the great Shahra King, be careful!"

As soon as Yakumo Zi's words fell, a sharp arrow flew up from the square, and it could be seen that there was even a ray of red light on the arrow, which was obviously a bow and arrow skill with a burst effect.

It's a pity that before this feather arrow touched Yakumo Purple, it was blocked by an invisible protective wall around the palace at Yakumo Purple's feet, and with a boom, a violent explosion burst out in mid-air, causing a wave of air that swept the entire square.

"Hehe, it's really urgent!" Yakumo Zi was not angry, and said with a smile, "I advise you to keep these things to deal with those yellow sand slaves, little girl!" ”

It was Angelica who shot the arrow, how could she, who had always felt that she was different, so obediently watched Yakumo Purple perform there, so naturally she took the bow and arrow from her back without hesitation, and shot the arrow with a sharp bow.

After the wave of anger, just as Angelica was about to attack again, Camila had already grabbed Angelica's arm and dragged her over.

"Let go of me, Sister Camilla, I'm going to give that stinky girl a good look!" Angelica wriggled her arms and tried to break free from Camila's grasp.

Syllable!

Camilla didn't hesitate to slap Angelica.

"Ka, Sister Camilla?" Angelica was a little confused, she didn't understand why this big sister who had always been amiable would beat her.

"Take a good look around, Angelica, if you're still so willful, I'll have to ask the president to transfer you to a group when you get back." Camila held Angelica in one hand and a sword in the other, and quickly ran towards a building with the team, saying as she ran.

Angelica looked around, and realized that it was not only them, but everyone was desperately rushing towards the surrounding abandoned buildings, no matter who they were, their faces were full of expressions of preparedness, as if they were facing a great enemy.

"Ahh A scream came from nowhere, which meant that an unlucky guy had died at the hands of those monsters.

"Sorian, take care of Angelica! Barbarov, Kiyotsuki, you guys are in charge of the attack, cat, you and I open the way ahead, we have to find a place where we won't be surrounded by these monsters. Camila used the long sword in her hand to sweep back a yellow sand slave who pounced on them, these monsters had the upper body of a human, but the lower body was composed of a yellow whirlwind of sand, which made it difficult for these yellow sand slaves to stabilize their bodies, so they could be easily repulsed.

But the damage figure that came out of the head of this yellow sand slave was less than 20 points, which obviously made Camilla give up the idea of killing on the spot, and now the top priority was to find a strong and suitable place to defend first, otherwise, once surrounded by these monsters, no amount of life would be enough.

"Hahaha, run, run, use your poignant life to play the most passionate music of life, and use your blood to decorate the tableware and cake of the tea party! You will be sacrificed to the resurrection of the Shahra Empire, and only those who have obtained the magic gem will be safe and sound! Yakumo stood on the dome, looking up to the sky and smiling, shouting a wild declaration in that Lori's childlike voice.

In the night sky, it was a full moon, and the holy moon full of brilliance was hanging high in the night sky, and the bright moonlight passed through the light curtain that shrouded the ruins of Shasar, covering the ruins with a layer of silver tulle, and on the horizon, the dark red body of the demonic moon could be seen, which was a scene that could only be seen by a full moon every three months, and the only time in three months that two moons could be seen at the same time. Unfortunately, these players trapped in the ruins did not have the opportunity to enjoy this rare beauty.

Yakumo sat on the dome like this, swaying her feet while drinking a little wine, enjoying this rare view.

"It would be nice if there was a cherry blossom tree in full bloom next to it!" Yakumo Murasaki drank all the wine in the small wine glass and muttered to herself.

【When will the sky stop raining】

[When will the stars shine again]

【When will I have you again】

【When will we be together forever】

The fox-eared little Lori sang again, and the ethereal song echoed throughout the ruins of Shasar, and the screams of one after another complemented each other, forming a poignant and eerie picture.
