Volume 5: The Elegant Tea Party (Remastered) Chapter 56: The Tea Party (Struggle 3)
While Camila and the others were talking about this tea party, in the center of the ruins of Shasar, on the only remaining dome, Yakumo Murasaki also welcomed a special guest.
A player dressed in a black hooded robe suddenly appeared behind Yakumo, the night wind blowing through, and the sideburns raised to reveal the pointed ears.
As if he had known that this elf would appear, Yakumo did not look back, still sitting on the dome drinking wine and admiring the moon.
"You really know how to enjoy it!" The elf who suddenly appeared took a few steps forward and looked up at the holy moon in the night sky, "But this view is really good, even I am a little intoxicated." ”
"Would you like a drink?" Yakumo raised the wine glass in his hand, "You can only see the beauty once in three months, it would be a pity to miss it, Executor Zero, Magician Doles." ”
Doles took the wine glass: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey!" ”
Drinking the wine from his glass, Doles looked at the pillars of light rising from all over the ruins, each of which represented a destroyed magic node, and now, in less than an hour, more than twenty pillars of light had appeared: "Looks like the tea party is going well." ”
"Of course, I put a lot of thought into this tea party." Yakumo said proudly.
"Isn't it too much? This is not what we originally estimated. Doles said.
"You'll have to ask the professor how he might have gotten into this trouble if he hadn't caused me trouble." Yakumo Zi said angrily, "You're not easy either, are you?" The guys out there are no easier to deal with than my guests. ”
Not everyone can feel the ruins of Shasar at the right time, some arrive early, some are naturally late, and when they find themselves blocked by the magic barrier and unable to enter the ruins of Shasar, they will naturally wander around the ruins, looking for possible opportunities.
If Yakumo Murasaki is in charge of the tea party inside the ruins, then the magician Doles is in charge of cleaning up the outside of the ruins.
"It's a lot of trouble, those guys run faster than anyone else, like scared rabbits, but if you don't pay attention, they will sneak over again." Doles sighed and said, "Fortunately, I anticipated this situation in advance and brought the three magical golems that the organization just repaired not long ago, otherwise I really don't know what to do." The number of sacrifices here has exceeded the Order's expectations, and I don't dare put those idiots in again. ”
"I'm having a headache about it, too!" Yakumo Zi took a small cloth bag from his belt and shook it for a moment, and a clanging sound came from the cloth bag, "The total number of people now is four hundred and sixty-six, and even if you remove the fifty people who can get the gem, there are more than four hundred people who are also used as sacrifices. Knowing this, there would have been no need to waste so much time and manpower and material resources to unlock the first layer of magic seals. ”
"Aren't you worried about which hapless executor is also on the death list?"
"That can only mean that their luck is not good, or that their strength is not enough, besides, even if they end up as sacrifices, relying on the mark left on them in advance, these guys only need to bear the punishment of reducing the upper limit of soul energy by twenty percent for a month, at least there is no danger to their lives, isn't it?"
"I'm just worried about how I'll explain it to your Excellency, after all, I'm the overseer of this operation." Doles played with the wine glass in his hand, "Oh, looks like someone has returned." ”
As Doles spoke, a vague figure emerged from the shadows on the dome, quickly transforming into a physical entity.
"It is worthy of the right-hand man of the Death Knight, and he got the key prop to open the third seal in less than an hour!" Doles clapped his hands and praised.
"Doles?" Alan was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted, "It seems that Your Excellency the First Pillar is still not very confident about this plan, and he actually sent you over." ”
"After all, when it comes to the preliminary preparations for the Phantom Flame Project, the recovery of the Shahra Empire is the most important part, and several Your Excellencies have to act cautiously."
"Then I wish you all the best." Alan said, tossing a mutilated statue to Yakumo, "As we have learned, the emperor of the Shahra Empire has divided his soul into several parts, which are hidden in different parts of this ruin. ”
"I thought I wouldn't be able to wake up the Lord of the Yellow Sand this time, but I think I'm lucky. As long as we find the first part, we will be able to wake him up, if not tonight, at least from his slumber. When the time comes, the Lord of the Yellow Sand will take the initiative to find a way to break free from the seal. Yakumo took the statue and examined it carefully, looking like an arm firmly bound by chains.
The second person to jump on the dome is Walter, as a dragon man, he can make himself a half-dragon in a short period of time to gain additional attributes and abilities, which can greatly increase various physical fitness, and it is not difficult to jump on the dome with a height of only five or six meters.
"Sure enough, I'm still old, not as good as young people!" Walter returned to his human form, and except for the speckled dragon scales on his face, which showed his race, he didn't look any different from a human in other aspects, "I don't think I need to be involved in the future, so I'm leaving, the master is still waiting for my news." ”
After Walter finished speaking, he handed the statue in his hand to Yakumo Purple, and then walked to the position where Doles appeared before, it turned out that a simple small teleportation array had been arranged here, and a burst of white light flashed, and Walter had disappeared.
"I heard that the past came with the wind, didn't you go with him?" Doles asked, turning his head.
"Nope." Alan just replied coldly.
"I thought you'd take care of him, anyway, he's your apprentice!" Doles said.
"It's just that you've been on a few missions with me, not to mention that we have a very close relationship."
"So, even if I invite him, it's fine?" Yakumo said with a smile.
"It's not a good habit to talk about digging behind the wall!" An almost transparent ghost appeared beside Alan, "Your Excellency Second Pillar, how about you care about your maid than me, a nobody?" I saw her and Jean fighting each other in the east. ”
"My blue is not that weak, don't worry!" Yakumo Zi covered her mouth and smiled, "It looks like you're in a hurry to go back, don't you stay and see the final ending?" ”
"I'm not interested in the end that is already doomed." "Besides, according to the schedule, I don't need to be involved in the preparation this time. ”
"Me too, almost none of the real top players in the hands of the big guild showed up this time, and those who came could only be regarded as elites." The past turned his ghost virtual body into an undead entity with the wind, and followed Alan into the teleportation array.
"Is that really the case? I've long thought that neither the Death Knight nor his two men seem to be out of place! Doles said.
"But you can't deny that these two guys are really good. Being able to kill the leader of the Dragoon Guild in front of more than 300 players is not something that anyone can do. ”
After Alan and the Past had left with the wind, a little while later, Zoreen Britz arrived.
After handing over the statue she had found, the werewolf sat down near Yakumo Murasaki.
"Do you want to drink?" Yakumo asked when she got a glass of wine.
"I drink this!" Zolin untied the wine bag from her belt and took a few sips, "Your wine is too soft for us werewolves to drink." ”
Arriving after Zorin was Bolliwell, and when the Red Flame thug of the Demon Clan saw Zorin, he defiantly pointed his axe and gun at him.
Tying the bag back to her belt, Zorene picked up her scythe and jumped off the dome with a kick.
"Looks like our Lieutenant has found a good opponent!" Doles said.
"Two barbarians, I really don't know if these two guys have that brain!" Yakumo Zi glanced at the two people who were walking towards the ruins in the distance while fighting, and said.
The next one to arrive was Yakumo Blue, the rabbit Clan's Moon Dancer's equipment that seemed to have suffered a lot of damage, and there were many cracks in the leather armor.
"I'm sorry, miss, I didn't stop that guy Jean." Yakumo Lan changed into that maid outfit, stood behind Yakumo Zi respectfully, and said.
"It's okay, I'll teach him a good lesson next time I have a chance!" Yakumo Zi waved her hand, "Speaking of which, what about that guy?" ”
"I'm afraid he doesn't want to come here to suffer, here's the statue he found." Yakumo Lan handed the two statues in his hand to Yakumo Murasaki.
"Cunning fellow, I would have wanted him to start the final ritual!" Disappointed, Yakumo put the statue into a small box at hand.
On the other hand, with Brad's rescue, more and more players gathered in the small garden, and soon exceeded fifty people, which also made the defense of the small garden more and more solid, and the wounded could have more time to treat.
After making sure there were no missing players nearby, Bred also returned to the small garden with the party.
"Thank you very much!" Camila and the knife greeted him mercilessly, and said gratefully, if it weren't for Brad, I'm afraid that at least half of the players present would be killed by those yellow sand slaves, and then scattered because of random resurrections.
"It's too early to reassure, we still have to hold on here for two hours." Brad didn't let that put him down.
"Oh, that's a big crowd!" At that moment, a voice came from the roof on the side of the small garden.
Brad looked up and saw the two players standing on the roof, looking down condescendingly over the small garden.
One of them was dressed in simple cloth armor and held a one-man tall crank staff, wearing a black demon mask on the left side of his face and a staggered pattern on the right side of his face.
The other was covered by a wide robe, with only the potholed, ugly face that scared people to tears.
"You are the one who killed the evil spirit mage, and the voodoo sorcerer is ruined!" As soon as Breed grasped the double-headed spear in his hand, he was on guard, "Two scum! Do you think we're going to be slaughtered like those ordinary people? ”
"I don't see any difference between you and the shit." The remnant flower who hid his body in the burqa said expressionlessly.
"Damn!" Hearing the remnants of the flowers and willows say this, the players in the small garden are full of anger one by one, none of them are weak people who have survived until now, but now they are said to be waste, naturally no one will be happy.
"I can understand you joining the Snake of Devouring Bodies, but what about you? Evil spirit mage, why did you join them, with your ability, in the elven clan, any guild rushed to win over, why did you join such an organization of unknown origin? Elf Lances asked.
"Well, why?" The evil spirit mage killed you touched your chin with your empty left hand, "Hehe, maybe it's because you can kill people freely here!" To be honest, those elf players are so weak that I don't even bother to kill them! They don't even have the value of being killed by me! ”
"What to do with talking so much about these waste, anyway, in the end these waste will always die!" The remnant flower and willow said dissatisfiedly.
"Well, well, don't be so anxious! It's still a long time, and if you don't have some fun, it's going to be boring after that! "Besides, don't you think these guys are funny?" I really want to see their expressions, which go from hopeful to hopeful, and what a beautiful expression! Haha, just imagining it makes me almost uncontrollable! ”
"What do you mean?" Brad asked aloud.
"Oh yes! Don't you know yet? You idiots have paid so much to come here, you don't really think it's just a simple party, do you? There is a limit to what you can't do! Haven't you thought that all this is for the bait that lured you here? ”
"Bait? You mean? ”
"That's right, what a tea party, what a reward, haha, it's all to bring you here!"
"Traps? Why? What exactly is your purpose? ”
"The purpose? Hahaha, they're all dying, even if you know, what can you do? The remnants of the flowers and willow toes said proudly.
"Why, don't you even want us to die? You good-for-nothing piece of shit! Camila stepped forward and said.
"Is that you? I didn't see it just now, Captain Camilla, and Sorian, haha, I really thanked you for your angelic covenant hospitality, I've been looking for an opportunity to repay you, what, why isn't that bitch of Tiramisu here, can't it be dead? ”
"We still have a lot of accounts, and you only deserve to do these dirty things! What about the trap, do you dare to jump down and kill me? Do you have what it takes? Do you dare? Camila scoffed.
"You! Hum! "The remnant flower and willow were about to jump down to teach this woman a lesson, but you were the one who was killed, and you stopped it again.
"Don't fall for her, they won't live long without us doing anything!" After you finished speaking, he said to Camilla, "I have long heard of the riding method under the Angel's Covenant, and when I saw it today, it really deserves its reputation, and you don't need to provoke us, anyway, it has already come to this point, even if you tell you the true purpose of this tea party, you can't do anything to resist." ”
Hearing that you were the one who killed, the remnant flower and the willow hesitated: "Hey, do you really want to tell them?" ”
"What are you afraid of, after the tea party begins, all the endings are already doomed, let them know the truth, so that they can appreciate the desperate expressions of these guys!"
"The real purpose of this tea party is to awaken the Shasar Emperor who is sleeping under this ruin through sacrifice, and ultimately to resurrect the entire Shahra Empire. The magic barrier you see is actually part of the magic circle that sealed this ancient empire. And all the uninvited waste, including you, are the sacrifices that have been put on the altar! "The one who killed is you arrogantly raised your head and said, "This entire Shasar ruins is an altar, those yellow sand slaves cannot really be destroyed, every time you die, the lost soul energy will become the power to awaken the Shahra Empire, the more you die, the stronger the resurrected Shahra Empire will be, even if you huddle together, don't think that you can be safe and sound, as you pay more and more soul energy, there will be stronger and stronger enemies to wake up from their slumber, and then kill you one by one." ”
"Don't worry, you'll die without pain! Hahaha! Remnant Flower Defeated Willow laughed wildly and said, "Resist as much as you want, the more Yellow Sand Slaves you destroy, the faster you will die!" You will be the cornerstone of the resurrection of the Sahra Empire! ”
