Chapter 358: The Calm Waves That Came Again

In the Eastern Continent, at the same time as the chaotic turmoil in the Strange Domain of the Southern Continent had largely subsided, the invasion of the Beast Spirits of the Northland, the main plot of the same period on the Eastern Continent, also ended with the signing of an armistice agreement between the High Priest of the Beast Spirit Clan and the high-ranking officials of the Empire.

Although the Empire has never made an agreement or commitment to cede territory to the Northland Beast Spirit Clan in words or in a written agreement, the Empire has not asked for the return of the Northwest Territory that the Northland Beast Spirit Clan has actually invaded and occupied in the previous war, and even did not mention this matter in the agreement at all, obviously, no matter how good the whitewash and cover-up on the surface is, the Empire is still the weak party in this armistice agreement, the former Northwest Territory of the Empire north of Iron Sword City, It was the price the Empire paid to the Northland Beast Spirit Clan in this war.

In terms of practical conclusions, this so-called armistice agreement can be regarded as a humiliating experience for the Glorious Empire, but for this, the players on the Empire's side do not have much feeling. Players are not really residents of the Empire, and they are so actively involved in this Imperial Defense War only because it is in the context of the main story, and the benefits of participating in the Defense War are much higher than if they were to raid ordinary dungeons and jungles.

What's more, after the armistice agreement was signed, the Northwest Territory of the Empire, which was originally restricted to players belonging to the Empire during the war, was reopened to players, and even because the Beast Spirit Clan established its own teleportation array system between the Northwest Territory and the Northland Wasteland, and the price of use was even cheaper than in the Empire, so that players only need to set their respawn points in the towns of the Northwest Territories, so that even if they die during the adventure in the Northland Wild without a respawn point, they can immediately resurrect in the towns of the Northwest Territories and teleport back to the Northlands. This has undoubtedly made the Northlands, which were originally not friendly to players, into a new area where players can now go on more accessible wilderness adventures.

Originally, the wild map and dungeon resources distributed in the Northland Wasteland were just very suitable for players to use as the main activity location in the level range of 50-90, not to mention that this was a "new map" for most players who had never been here before because of the limited conditions. It also quickly reversed the original ferocious and barbaric image in the minds of players, and even beast races like cats, rabbits, and foxes that have natural advantages in appearance quickly gained the love of most players (especially men).

After a Northland Beast Spirit Invasion War, the Beast Spirit Clan side was given a lot of land and direct communication opportunities with the players as the High Priest expected, and the players were given a larger in-game activity area and exploration fun, leaving aside the glorious empire as the only loser on the surface, this Northland Beast Spirit invasion main line actually ended up in a sense of a win-win ending.

“…… It is worthy of being a heroic figure who has been in charge of the Northland Beast Spirit Clan for nearly a hundred years. ”

In a remote inn in the Radiant King City, a magic communication crystal was lying on a somewhat dirty wooden table, and a man's voice came from inside the crystal.

"In order to make the beast spirit clan rise again, this high priest is really calculating. There is no owner of Godhead Fragments in the Radiant Empire, as long as they get the opportunity to communicate with these extraterrestrial adventurers, the Northland Beast Spirit Clan with real people like him and Golden Beamon will sooner or later cultivate enough prestige in the hearts of these ignorant extraterrestrial adventurers, and it is very likely that they will even replace the empire as the actual guide of these extraterrestrial adventurers on the Eastern Continent. ”

"It's a pity that this high priest didn't calculate it after all, even if the beast spirit clan succeeded in planning this war, he himself would no longer be able to lead the rise of the beast spirit clan."

The male voice in the communication crystal fell, and Conte, a middle-aged man with a gentleman's high hat and a mustache, stood at the table, and spoke with a smile.

"Without the fragment of Godhead, the Beast Spirit High Priest will only be an ordinary empty shell with no self-consciousness from now on, the Beast Spirit Clan has gained what they want, but has lost the most important person at the helm, and the things that this High Priest originally planned will be stillborn after all."

Hearing Conte's words, the male voice in the communication stone did not show relief and joy.

"Conte, don't be careless."

"Please rest assured, my master, it is true that in addition to the High Priest, the Beast Spirit Clan also has the owner of the Golden Beamonelo, the Divine Fragment, but according to the results of my investigation in the previous battle, this person's bravery and strength should not be underestimated, but he is by no means capable of leading the entire Beast Spirit Clan like the High Priest in a short period of time, and continue to complete the complex layout of the High Priest. As for the Void Beast King Immortal Phoenix, who lived in seclusion in the Northland Beast Spirit Clan, it was the same as the Sea Beast King Abyss Hydra that we had secretly calculated before, even it would be difficult for it to get rid of the restrictions of the external laws that were now shrouded in the entire Eumessia Continent Plane without the fragments of Godhead. ”

Hearing Conte's eloquent analysis, the man he called "master" remained unmoved.

"The loss of the High Priest may not be as fearful as you said, but Conte, don't forget that even the High Priest and the Northland Beast Spirit Clan in your mouth are nothing more than powerful thugs against the Abominable Order, and our real threat still exists, and even continues to grow stronger."

The smile on Conte's face vanished, and he lowered his head slightly.

"I'm sorry, master, I got carried away."

There was silence in the room for a few seconds.

“…… This isn't the first time the newborn primordial elf has done anything bad to us, from the initial defeat of Bekaz to the present, the newborn primordial elf has been growing slowly at a rate we can't be sure of, and the most troublesome thing is that she always seems to have a way of detecting our movements, and every time she intervenes in our plans at the most critical time to completely destroy our layout. This time in the Strange Domain, she may not have completely confirmed my identity, but she definitely has doubts about me, and we must be more careful in our future actions. ”

Conte's cheeks twitched slightly.

"Master, I don't really understand, why do we have to make it so complicated, the forces of order on the continent of Emissia seem to be just strong from the outside, as long as you can show your identity and return to the Northern Continent to summon the people of chaos to launch an offensive, I don't think that these stupid races of order who have been at peace for too long and are even addicted to infighting are capable of resisting us-"

"Conte, you shouldn't question your master."

Before Conte's words were finished, he was interrupted by a male voice in the communication crystal, and when he heard the other party's words without joy or sorrow, Conte, who was still a little emotional just now, broke out in a cold sweat for a moment.

“…… The subordinates should be damned, the subordinates lost their words. ”

"Conte, you underestimate the order, these guys are full of rotten stubbornness, but they are not really inflexible, they have far more power than you see."

Conte lowered his head, he was afraid of his master, but he was still a little unconvinced by what his master said.

"Master, having said that, if time drags on, we may have even more trouble when those extraterrestrial adventurers really grow up."

"Perhaps, but don't forget Conte, by that time, the seeds we have planted now will already begin to sprout, won't they?"

Saying this, the male voice in the communication stone finally brought a hint of pleasure.

"The decaying order, they will never understand what kind of monster will be born after lust and greed have obtained the catalysis of absolute power."

Earth, S Central Hospital.

"Hey...... Something like this happened during my absence......"

Chu Jiajia, the black-haired girl sitting on the bed, let out a sigh, her face revealing yearning and loneliness.

"Hm...... I really want to go to the Strange Realm with everyone. ”

At the side of the hospital bed, because Mira's bad taste came to reality this time, Rococo, who was also wearing a cosplayer-like Lolita-style skirt, saw Chu Jiajia's somewhat lonely look, and hurriedly spoke.

"No, it's okay Jiajia, now that the chaos and turmoil in the Strange Domain have subsided, we can go there and play as much as we want. It's actually a good thing that you didn't come this time.,What happened at the end of the plot where we participated with the Star Palace before.,The team except for me and Bubbles and Brother Cold Ice all hung up.,Not to mention the loss of experience.,Steel Ground Thorn and Sister Guoguo Sister Aoi They all lost their equipment.。 ”

Looking at Rococo comforting herself a little awkwardly, Chu Jiajia's eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, in fact, if you want to say it, she is not really as lost as she appears, but for some reason, every time she is alone with Coco, she always subconsciously wants to be coquettish, and every time Coco is always very cooperative.

It's not good, isn't this a lie to Coco? But I always feel that this feeling is a bit addictive.

"By the way, Jiajia, after this plot, I discussed it with you, and I plan to put aside the leveling plan for the time being to find some suitable powerful inheritances for everyone, Jiajia, do you have any inheritance you want?"

"Huh? I? I...... But it's not like you don't know, I don't care, just help me choose. ”

"Well, you don't have anything to ask for."

"Yes, then it should be the best to help the inheritance of Cocoa!"

“……”

"Ale, Coco, your face looks so red, m, are you shy?"

"No, I'm not, no ......"

"Hee-hee-hee......"

…………

Outside the ward, listening to the happy voices of the girls coming from the room, Director Liu, the attending doctor of Jiajia, and Nurse Bai, who had been in charge of taking care of Jiajia, glanced at each other, but their eyes were not much relieved, but full of helplessness.

Sighing lightly, Director Liu put the information paper with the words "special treatment plan" written at the beginning of his hand back into the file sheet, turned his head and walked in the direction of the office.

"Nurse Bai, let's come back another day."

Listening to the laughter coming from the ward, Nurse Bai felt that her eyes and nose were a little sour.

“…… Good. ”
