Deres pushed open the door to the storage room, went up five steps up the stairs, reached out and slapped the wall a few times, and stabbed the dagger into the compartment when he noticed it.

To the touch, the dagger seemed to have pierced through a layer of dirt, and after a rotation, it made a hole in the wall.

There was a note in the cave with a paragraph densely written on it.

"Lucky little one, you'll be glad you made your choice."

Hmph, damn fellow! Deres sneered that the person who wrote these words must have been a boring person.

"As you might think, I'm bored."

Derees: "......"

He pinched the note and flipped through it several times, confirming that it was just an ordinary piece of paper, and there was no magic to understand his consciousness, and the only explanation was that the other party had guessed his thoughts in advance.

Damn fellows!

He continued to look down.

"As you read this, your friends — or former friends — are facing an unprecedented crisis. I'll show you how to save them, but the choice is yours. ”

Is it me? Deres was stunned.

"That's right, it's up to you."

Damn, guessed again!

"I've seen how your 'friends' have betrayed you, so one thing makes me extremely curious: when you can control their lives and deaths, will you go out of your way to save them?

"You're faced with two choices now, lad.

"Option 1: You can come to my treasury and pick up the riches at will, and believe me, it's not much worse than a dragon's treasures. But accordingly, you will lose the means to save them, I mean I have given you. Of course, you can also try to face twenty bone spirit swordsmen alone, or a furious bone colossus. ”

I'm not that stupid! Dreas said indignantly.

"Option 2: I'll tell you how to save them, but you'll lose your rightful wealth and be suspicious for it - I'm not bored enough to help you make up the story of the cause and effect, why wouldn't the legendary necromancer kill you? I'm a little confused about that, but I hope they can. ”

Deres couldn't help but smile bitterly, the person who left these words really had a good grasp of people's hearts. Originally, in the face of this choice, he almost didn't have to think about it, he must choose the first one, after all, it was more than forty lives, although he liked gold coins, but he didn't want his wealth to be stained with other people's blood.

But what the other party said is right, how should he explain it?

This is not a knight, as long as the protagonist has firm faith at the critical moment, shouting justice and victory, he can defeat the opponent, and everything must be logical......

But where do I find logic? Will they believe me if I tell me about it? A legendary necromancer who was so bored that he wrote little notes for me to do multiple-choice questions? Heh, they'll probably think I've been controlled.

"Maybe it will embarrass you, but it's none of my business."

Bastard! What's none of your business anymore!!

Deres felt like he was going crazy. He is often the one who usually plays this role, and this time it can be regarded as a personal experience.

"Of course, you can't think about it for too long, after all, I don't know how long they will last under my creatures.

"Finally, I kindly warn you, don't pray that poor elf may come and save you, she and her mage troops are already buried in the dirt. And don't try to fight against the odds – I mean desperately resisting, that would just give me a few more pieces that aren't of good quality.

"Everything you face is a test. Human nature can't stand the test, but I firmly believe that personality can. Hope you can be an excellent sample.

"Zayx presented."

He crumpled the note into a ball and threw it on the ground in hatred, only to realize that the paper did not write how to make a choice.

Does this matter? It seemed that the choice to make was more important, he thought.

After closing his eyes and thinking for a moment, Deresi's tangled expression calmed down.

"Your Excellency Zaix, I will choose the first one." He shouted into the air, and waited apprehensively.

There was a terrifying silence, and just when Dreas thought he had been tricked, a jar with purple patterns at both ends and Mithril plated in the middle fell from the sky and rolled down the steps with a grunt.

At the same time, a hoarse and unpleasant sound sounded in all directions, like a forked branch pulling in the sand.

"It's a lifeguard, the lich's source of life."

Deres couldn't help but gasp: such a precious thing......

"Of course, it's a fake."

Deres: "......" Can you finish it in one sitting!!

"Take it with you, and you can attract the attention of the Bone Colossus and the Bone Spirit Swordsman, and run away with them."

The sound stopped abruptly here, and when Deres stepped forward to hold the urn-like life box, an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

If...... What about them asking me to destroy this life guard?

Thinking of this, he felt that he suddenly understood the other party's intentions: when he picked up this thing, he became the target of everyone, on the one hand, against the lich's necromantic creation, and on the other hand, against the greedy human heart......

Of course, it all depends on how you interpret it.

But will anyone believe what he says? Even if he saved their lives......

The choice is not so much in the hands of oneself as in the hands of those former "companions".

What about me? After luring away those monsters, who will save me? Is this Lord Zaix? Heh, no kidding......

Dreas took a deep breath, and he began to wonder if his choice was wrong. He repeatedly reminded himself not to be deceived by a cheap sense of justice, but he still couldn't resist the "temptation".

"Hey, I'...... Is it too late for me to regret it now? ”

Mu Yan, who was hiding in the shadows, almost laughed out loud when he heard this. Is this kid so real?

Fortunately, Dresses smiled helplessly immediately afterward.

"Of course, I'm joking, too, and it might be a lot of fun, so wait and see, Your Excellency."

He stood up, hugged the jar, and his mind raced through the various results and countermeasures.

Mu Yan looked at the appearance of this kid racking his brains and thinking, and suddenly felt a little kind.

"He must be excited," he thought, "come on, boy, don't let me down." ”

----------------------

Leon wielded his spear, causing the bone spirit swordsman in front of him to retreat. His desperate style of play even has to avoid the skeletons.

The skeletons standing in battle circles around them still stood straight, without the slightest intention of interfering. Leon knew very well that he could not call for reinforcements, that the large army was engaged in a battle with the colossus, and that it would be best for him to contain twenty enemies like this.

Moreover, this belongs to the competition between the soldiers of the White Crow Regiment, and violating the rules will be spurned.

But he overlooked the fact that he was a human after all, and that it was a difficult task in itself to be enemies of flesh and blood and the indefatigable undead, not to mention the constant wails of students being trampled on by the Colossus. The Knights of the White Crow were originally the shield of the Empire, helping the weak and upholding justice, but now he could only listen to the lives of the weak being trampled on, which was simply torture for the knights who took mercy and mercy as their creed.

Without paying attention, a hole appeared in Leon's attack, and the long sword blocked by the bone spirit swordsman poked out violently, heading straight for his chest.

The other party is like an old turtle hidden under a hard shell, he has been waiting for work for so long, and finally found an opportunity, and this shot is a stormy offensive, which is similar to the previous judgment.

"Is the suppressive power of the offensive end of the White Crow Sword Technique also so strong?" The more Leon fought, the more frightened he became.

After the switch between attack and defense, he had already abandoned the war spear that was dwarfed on the defensive end and replaced it with a silver shield to delay as much time as possible, but even so, the power from the shield made his arm sore. On the other hand, the other party's frequency has not decreased a little, and the soul fire in his eyes is still bright.

……

On the other side, the other nine knights, with the exception of Jaime, the chief of the guard, raised their last bit of strength to form a human wall, separating the students who had drawn the teleportation array from Manny. More than a dozen students, led by Teacher Hans and supplemented by Lucien, were in charge of the battle with the Bone Colossus, and in only a few minutes, they had already suffered a lot of battle damage.

Manny had been restrained as he had been told, and he had avoided all the key points—the head and the heart. Although many students looked extremely miserable, and their limbs were trampled on and the flesh was blurred, they were saved as long as they had a breath of air.

But neither it nor Mu Yan took it into account, so the psychological trauma of this group of recruits was even greater......

Mr. Hans himself is a six-ring arcanist, and as a tutor who teaches and teaches, he is not outstanding in his own right. The reason why he was able to become the leader of the team this time was because of the connections and prestige between the Elemental Tower and the Academy, and he played more of a coordinator. Being able to get tangled with Manny now relies heavily on Lucian's play.

In Dusk Era, this is a ragtag army with an average level of less than 50, led by a level 60 leader and more than 40 level pros, trying to challenge the leader of a level 65 team like Manny, if it weren't for the latter's release, they would have been wiped out.

Rao is Lucian, a battle mage with a keen sense of smell, and he can't help but feel worried about the difficulty of the giant beast in front of him. It was the first time he had ever seen such a smart big guy.

He had studied the skills of a battle mage in Sulama for a while, and at that time, the elven mentor Valtoy's teaching method was very simple, he took his wand and the spatial ring and threw him in to confront the monster, and then brought it out for a review after he couldn't hold it anymore, and so on until he was able to play with the test subject.

In the lesson on "Mammoth Large Monsters", he remembers it clearly, and the instructor's original words were "clumsy, low IQ, and easily attracted to the provocateur in front of him".

But what is this in front of you?

There are a total of five Arcanists in the team, including him and Mr. Hans, and now there are only two of them left, why? The three unlucky ones were thrown away before they could do anything, and now they were still leaning against the wall unconscious, and a shield warrior desperately holding on to its hind legs couldn't hold the big one.

Later, it was finally lured away by the shield warrior, but he himself only quietly laid a layer of gravity to intensify, and he felt that he was being targeted.

He almost subconsciously dodged away, and at the same time, there were several chilling bone spurs stuck in the place where he had been standing......

It turns out that this guy can also attack from a distance......

Lucien is smart now, he only moves his mouth, and absolutely does not cast spells. Under his command, the group barely dragged Manny.

There was just one thing that made him very puzzled, since he came in, he was very sure that he had never seen a single weed, the cave was bare, it seemed to be insulated from life, but the place where the teleportation array was drawn was paved with sparse weeds.

Why is that?

In the midst of his doubts, the shield warrior tasked with attracting the attention of the Colossus let out a scream, and the expensive shield plated with pure gold shattered, and the Colossus's fangs pierced through his body, picking him up alive.

The Colossus let out a howl and threw his head to the ground with a slam of his head, and the latter foamed blood from his mouth, and his face turned pale, and he was about to die.

Lucien didn't care so much, and carried him out of the battlefield with three flashes in a row, but this move was targeted by Manny.

He quickly held up a mage shield in front of him, and almost instantly, with two "whoosh" sounds, the mage shield was shattered by the huge blow, and two bone spurs passed through the robe and nailed him to the wall.

At the same time, there was a tremor in the earth, and Lucien saw a hideous elephant's head enlarge in his field of vision, its fangs sharp and shining.

The expressions of the people around him seemed to be slowed down, he saw Emma screaming, Teacher Hans tearing open the scroll, the rest of the people's attacks came straight towards the Colossus, and even Hans, who had a holiday with him, drew his bow into a full moon.

"This is the struggle of the weak, although it is of no use."

In the last moments of his life, Lucien was surprisingly calm, and he was still recalling the identity of the shield warrior.

"What's that guy's name, he seems to be a nobleman of pure blood, right? It was an aristocrat long before the Morning Star was divided.

"In this case, my death is not wasted, at least it helps. It would be better if this guy were a mage. ”

Feeling the strong wind from the Colossus' running on his face, Lucien closed his eyes.

"I'm probably going to be smashed to pieces." He thought.

However, fate always likes to joke, and a hearty shout came.

"Evil creatures! Stop it! Your master is in my hands! ”

Dreas suddenly appeared at the mouth of the tunnel at the other end of the hall, holding a silver jar in both hands, and shouted loudly.

Time seemed to stand still for a moment, and everyone's eyes were focused on him, Manny stopped at the last moment, and the bone spirit swordsman also stopped and turned his head to look over.

Mu Yan, who was hiding in the shadows and watching, was amused by Deresi's voice, but fortunately, the soundproof barrier was still there.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Deres secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but being watched by so many people still made his heart furious.

At this time, the undead creatures present all showed their anger cooperatively, and the skeletons around Leon swept over, throwing down the bewildered knight chief. Manny howled too, like a running old train, and ran over with a loud noise in the smoke, and one of the bone spirit swordsmen who fell behind was even trampled to pieces by it.

Deres secretly said badly, he didn't expect these skeletons to run so fast, and hurriedly turned around and fled.

The scene came and went as fast as it could, and it wasn't until a few seconds later that everyone present realized what had happened.

"Just, just led away?" Hans was incredulous. He didn't believe that Deres was still alive, that he had found the Lich's Nature, and that he would come and save them.

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and draw the circle and leave!" Teacher Hans was the first to react and shouted, and everyone woke up like a dream.

"And what about Deres?"

I don't know who in the crowd suddenly asked.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, then quickly returned to normal, as if no one had ever asked that before.

Anyway, I haven't opened the pages of the book since the New Year, and the comment area looks bad, and a glance can ruin the mood of the week, so I suggest that you don't bother to talk too much.

If you have anything to say, just leave a message in this chapter, and if it's very long, emmmm, you can add a group. There are few people in the group, and it is very quiet, which is quite suitable for discussion. That's it, I'll write quietly, you can read it comfortably~ [The 4000 words of this chapter are not because of RIO's reward!! Mouthful!
