Chapter Twenty-Five: The Light of Dawn

The smell of decay permeated the entire high platform, and the gray-black traces of the ground crisscrossed the ground, and the flat ground repaired by white marble seemed to have been corroded by strong acid, leaving irregular potholes that also emitted a sneering sound. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

But the dense dim yellow mist did not exist here, and they were crowded on the outside of the high platform, but they were still unwilling to take another step, as if there was an invisible barrier in front of them, which also made Sim's vision suddenly open as soon as he walked up the high platform

The thick leather immediately snorted when the boots stepped on the corroded ground, and at the same time, Sim also felt a slight heat coming from his feet, and he quickly moved away, otherwise the slight heat would turn into a burning sensation in a while.

The culprit who caused all this did not hide his figure, but blatantly showed his presence in front of Cim's eyes, a cloud of black gas entangled and blurred human form flickered at high speed on the high platform, constantly churning, not as pure darkness as the night sky, although the eyes looked glanced, but Chim still felt that it was more appropriate to call him the black like the abyss.

And different from the human figure shrouded in the black qi that continues to move at high speed is his opponent, the girl with long purple hair tied into a high ponytail wields the long sword in her hand, and at the same time moves gently under her feet, although her steps look very inconspicuous compared to the black qi humanoid that can almost make people stun, but every blow of the black qi humanoid can be steadily stopped by her.

"Is that really the case, Night-Chasing Doll and Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Sim took a light breath, he could recognize the identities of the two people fighting in front of him at a glance, the human figure with black gas wrapped around his body was a creature called the "Night Chasing Doll", which was a war weapon similar to the gargoyles of the Wizarding Guild, of course, other large strengths, including the Twilight Courtyard, did not have that level of alchemy, so the gargoyle could only be the exclusive product of the Wizarding Guild forever.

But the Twilight Courtyard is backed by the giants of the world's underworld forces, Dusk, in the game of Sim's previous life, the second expansion, and the era before him, players have heard of this monster that was banished in the wall of all worlds, and also vaguely heard that the third expansion is related to this guy, so the Twilight Garden naturally has a very strong heritage.

Therefore, they face the world, learn from the gargoyles of the Wizarding Association, absorb and learn from them, and at the same time adhere to the principle of self-centeredness and everything for me.

Based on high-quality materials such as the Miko who failed to evolve and the pure-blooded dusk monster that has lost its potential, it is a monster born specifically for battle, and a night-chasing doll that strives to strengthen its combat ability while ensuring the lowest limit of control and combat awareness.

Although it is only the silver rank, but it has the combat power that the general gold rank can not directly control its edge, of course, this is only temporary, in the future chaos in the south, cults are everywhere, and the era of war and chaos was opened by the Jade War, at that time, the night puppets have all evolved into the golden rank, and they are not afraid of death and have the same regeneration ability as almost immortality, as well as the real golden high-level law and martial arts double cultivation, all of which are headaches, but its most important ability has been set at the very beginning.

The most preliminary law mastery ability is equivalent to finding a strong person at the level of his own path.

And the traces of battle on the ground are the most favorable testimony of the night puppet's mastery of the law, and it is not even an ordinary law, it is combined with the power of the twilight, and the power of the composite law that is barely related to the fantasy law "abyss" through the law of strength "corrosion", according to what Sim understands, the twilight courtyard originally planned to borrow the power of dusk and trace it back to the root law "darkness" through "corrosion", but the root law "darkness" that really constitutes the world is pure darkness, There is no interest at all in this kind of mongrel produced by the Twilight Garden.

Although it is disgusted by the "darkness", although it is not a pure composite law, with all these kinds of bad, but it is still much stronger than the strong law of the same rank, and the Anlundale continent knows its own path in the silver rank, and then begins to communicate the law is enough to be called a genius, and even most of the golden early stage has not been exposed to the law.

Therefore, the night-chasing puppet has a strength comparable to the general gold rank, and it really makes those people in the golden stage suffer a lot from NPCs to players, especially the night-chasing puppet is a notoriously poor ghost, everyone worked hard to knock this thing down, and then picked up the nightfall fragments that were all over the ground, and could only throw the night fragments that the store couldn't even earn enough for maintenance, and it was precisely in the game that there were a lot of fights with this thing, and Sim would feel a lot of surprise.

Even when he first encountered this thing in the game, he was beaten to an embarrassment, and then it was difficult to solve it with the help of his teammates, but now, in front of him, the girl with a high ponytail and a skirt that is not very convenient for sports is fighting with the other party.

"Is it really Rolmander's violet........."

Sylvia Huddersfield Inruta, Violet of Rolmander, a noble princess knight under the battle banner, the youngest commander of the Four-Nation Alliance on the battlefield of the Matterbo Kingdom, a genius who reached the golden rank before the age of 30, Sim's heart flashed the titles of this beautiful woman in her previous life, and finally stayed on a short name, the Chosen One.

Sylvia was the first Chosen One to see in Sim's previous life, and of course in this life, this name belongs to a group of people who were born shrouded in glory, they are gifted, they are outstanding, and they are simply the darlings of Lord Tina.

Players are born with hero templates, in the native words of Anrendale, that is, they have reached the red bronze rank after adulthood, and the Chosen ones have reached the silver rank when they are adults, or even when they are not adults, not only that, but players are upgraded by killing monsters, which cannot be said to be a rapid level, but it can also be said that they are changing with each passing day, and the Chosen One, they can also upgrade by eating and sleeping, and it is faster.

In short, the Chosen ones are faster than the players, with high appearance and good background, they are just like players, of course, as a player-oriented game, if there is such a group of NPCs in the game that are more like players than players, there will be many people who are dissatisfied, even if most of the Chosen ones have a unique personality charm, but people's jealousy is exposed here.

So in order to satisfy the dark psychology of the players, even the IsolatedSystem company had to compromise and arrange the later life trajectories of these Chosen ones to be a little more tragic, but with the efforts of the company, although these people were forced to embark on the path of tragedy, they still had their positive attitude towards life, and instead became popular among players, and then asked the company to change their life trajectories.

Of course, IsolatedSystem was so impressed by the game's love for the game that it resolutely refused to accept the request.

While Sim was thinking about this, the battle on the high platform also entered another phase with the Nightchaser Doll's adoption of another strategy, and after a long one-punch fight with Sylvia, the Nightchaser Doll seemed to be impatient with this kind of turn-based combat.

With a wave of his arms, the gray-black gas that filled his body expanded, and then exploded, and the area centered on Sylvia, with a radius of five or six meters, was all shrouded in darkness, and suddenly the figure of the purple-haired girl was drowned in the black mist, and at the same time, Chim also showed a look of surprise, and then shouted

"Don't rush out!"

But Her Royal Highness Princess Sylvia obviously had her own decision, as soon as Chim's words fell, the hair like a blooming violet rose in the air, and at the same time, Sylvia also held a long sword to break free from the black mist, the sharp blade cut through the atmosphere, and at the same time the sword wind also split the black fog in two, no, not the sword wind, Chim's mouth opened wide as if he saw something incredible, he watched the white half-moon shaped air flow break through the black mist, Dragged a long tail on the ground and rushed straight at the exposed body of the Nightchase puppet.

That's a genuine sword qi, oh my God, a golden rank, an earth knight who is less than twenty years old? Chim felt that his worldview had been refreshed, and he reacted randomly, even the Chosen One could not reach this level, not to mention that if Her Royal Highness the Princess really reached the golden rank, with the ability of the Chosen One, there was no need to fight so fiercely, then...... He observed thoughtfully.

Sure enough, he saw something unexpected on Sylvia, who rushed out of the black mist, that is, on the flawless neck of Her Royal Highness the princess like white jade, a gem inlaid in a bronze necklace, which looked like an ordinary crescent stone, slightly curved crescent shape, emitting a white shimmer in the gray-black mist, and the night-chasing puppet with only a sense of battle would not pay attention, but the former legendary powerhouse Sim could notice this problem.

Although crescent stone is also a precious gemstone, but this gemstone has a lot of origins, almost all over the territory of Anlundale, so the price of crescent stone is relatively close to the people, it is also loved by the ladies of those small nobles and small merchants, but as the princess of Romand, the country of knights, wearing this kind of bargain in this kind of public will be called a loss of royal face.

The crescent stone has many origins, but it can still be used as a valuable gemstone because of its usefulness for wizards, the nature of the crescent stone is extremely stable, and it is often used as a magic medium for the magic array, and the magic in the crescent stone itself is not like amber, emerald, and various colored crystals with various attributes, basically the magic props above the silver level will be used more or less, and even include some ancient items.

"Hah!!"

After Sylvia swung her sword aura, the whole person also quickly landed, but when she was about to land, she stepped on the ground with her right foot, and incredible power erupted from her slender ankle, and the pale pink crystal-like heels even made an air explosion in the air, and then she shot at the night-chasing doll like a sharp arrow.

Sim's observation beyond the ordinary bronze rank helped him see the flash of magic aura on Sylvia's body, which was the faint light that enveloped Her Royal Highness as the power equivalent to the golden rank burst out from her Royal Highness.

"I see, it's an amplification magic array, to this extent, it's Karana's battle song? Or the blessing of Mura? ”

Driven by habit, Chim immediately began to analyze, but immediately shook his head and overturned his thoughts, the Karana War Song was announced by the Temple of War at the end of the first expansion, and as for Mura's blessing, it was even more unlikely, it was a powerful country that had always had a cold relationship with Rolmander, a lion entrenched in the north, and the secret of Dennesses royalty, even at the time of the second expansion, it was not circulated during the Dennesses turmoil, let alone now.

"Bang bang!!"

A slightly dull voice sounded.

The half-moon-shaped sword qi was raised by the night puppet, crossed and blocked, the fierce sword qi only tore his sleeve, and the dark arm didn't even leave a scar, the night puppet arm waved, and the gray-gray and black mist was dispersed on the body again, and the sword qi was even directly defeated by him, and the scattered sword qi hit the ground that had long been unbearable, stirring up gravel and dust.

Then the figure of Her Royal Highness the princess holding the long sword high flashed out of the dust, the long sword in Sylvia's hand shone with a strong light in the faint black, like lightning that pierced the night sky in a rainy night, and before the night doll had time to react, a sword slashed at his wide open chest with unrivaled power, and it looked like the night doll was about to be seriously injured, but the bystander Sim only sighed lightly.

"Boom!"

Under the incredible gaze of Her Royal Highness the princess of Rolmandel, the night-chasing puppet took the sword as if nothing had happened, and then grabbed Sylvia's wrist, and threw the purple-haired girl back into the thick gray-black mist that was a little more wide.

How so?! Although Sylvia was thrown back into the black fog, Rolmander's royal family, or Sylvia's own bloodline, ensured that she could have a certain amount of vision even in very dark places, and as for this black fog, she could even see more clearly than ordinary daytime, so when she was thrown away, she deftly turned over in the air, and then landed firmly on the ground.

But she was still very puzzled in her heart, just now she activated the enchantment effect on her saber Aurora, coupled with her physical ability to temporarily reach the golden early stage, she should have reached the peak of the golden middle stage, or barely touched the power of the golden high stage.

And how could the dead soldier who seemed to have only the strength of the silver high rank take this sword unscathed, and Her Royal Highness the Princess, who did not know about the Twilight Courtyard, obviously thought that this man who had mastered some strange ability was a dead man secretly cultivated by the Twilight Courtyard, after all, Romandand did not have a similar plan.

So what means did you absorb and seal my attack? Or is it to improve the defensive aspect? Sylvia guessed in her mind that no matter what means could withstand such an attack beyond her ability, there would definitely be a boundary, she straightened up, and then flicked her wrist slightly, ready to attack again, once twice, twice if it didn't work, three times.

The body of the Aurora Sword in her hand once again flashed with layers of light, reflecting the figure of Her Royal Highness the Princess in the darkness clearly, and the violet ponytail swayed gently, like a real violet, but before she could move, she heard a sound penetrate the black mist and enter her ears.

"Stop, you two!"

It was a young man's voice, full of anxiety and anger, although he didn't quite understand what "two" meant, but Sylvia still stopped what she was doing, and turned to look at the side, it was a young man wearing Inruta standard armor, short flaxen hair was messy, a pair of slightly raised eyebrows were twisted together, maroon eyes widened, and the long sword and armor in her hand were stained with a lot of disgusting yellow and dark red thick liquid, some of which had solidified on the bright silver armor.

"Chivalry, no, would-be knights?"

Sylvia doesn't know how the other party came to the high platform, there must be a blockade of the high platform in the twilight courtyard, but this quasi-knight doesn't look like there are reinforcements when he is alone, maybe he was lucky to come up, but he didn't even reach the red bronze rank of the quasi-knight.

Sylvia shook her head, although she was very moved by the other party's intention to come to the high platform at risk, but this kind of strength was not useful at all, she was just going to let the other party go back or simply stand there, but she didn't want the young would-be knight to speak before her

"The night-chasing puppet's night-curtain dance music can't deal with it like this at all, dig a hole for you and you can really dance into it!"

The young man shouted in that reprimanding tone again, Sylvia blinked, not very understandable, night puppet? You mean this swarthy guy?

"Nightfall dance is a night-by-night puppet that first releases itself and the rules it has mastered, forming a kind of simulated half-field, although it is a half-field, it is not something that you can solve by a half-hanger who has reached the golden early stage by relying on the increase of magic power, and in that half-field will continue to absorb your power."

The young man said something serious that Sylvia didn't quite understand, and Her Royal Highness nodded as if she didn't understand, but frowned again

"Rules? Are you saying that this, rabbit, the power of the night-chasing puppet is the rule? Impossible, he did not reach the gold, and"

Sylvia awkwardly pronounced the name of the night-chasing doll and almost bit her tongue, but Sim didn't wait for her to finish before she could take over

"And he doesn't look like he's sane?"

Chim seems to have returned to the days when he took newcomers to the game to get off the dungeon, those rookies would always ask curious questions, and they old people would always have that seemingly impatient tone, but in fact answered those questions again and again, he said with some amusement

"The chaos carried by dusk is completely different from the entire civilization of Anrendale, whether it is chaos or order, and the biggest mistake in facing dusk is to apply your common sense to judge it, which often becomes the cause of your death."

He spoke and became serious again, then continued

"But after all, Dusk is still in the Ten Thousand Realms Barrier, and there are even several layers of crystal walls from Anrendale, and the Twilight Courtyard can't really put that much money on the Night-Chasing Doll, so this thing still follows the rules of the world of Anrendale, and the materials for making the Night-Chasing Doll are all quite strong in themselves, and what the Twilight Courtyard does is only to stimulate the potential inside their bodies and open ' The road' at the same time seduces the repulsive nature of the rules of Annendale with the power of dusk, and the power of dusk is brought down through the road, and the power of dusk is withdrawn before the rules expel it, so that the rules are forced to establish a connection with the material, and this is the essence of the rules they have mastered. ”

Sim looked at the motionless night-chasing puppet in the distance, and the corners of his mouth provoked a disdainful smile, for him, who had once reached the legend, this kind of mastery of rules that was not even cheating was really not even eye-catching

"But this kind of rule is just the power of the rule to expel the twilight instinct, which is completely different from the permission that normal comprehension of the rules and then obtain, so although the night-chasing puppet has fragments of rules in his body, he can only be simply driven, and he can just bully the incomplete golden rank that has not comprehended the rules."

As he spoke, he glanced at Sylvia, then pouted

"Of course, you are not a problem with gold that also relies on foreign objects to cheat, after all, mastering the rules is a power that can only be reached by the real gold rank, not to mention that if the rule fragments are in the body for a long time, they will even gradually assimilate with the body, and it will be even more tricky at that time."

Sylvia understood this time, she blinked at the young man, although this was the first time she had seen this person, but when the young knight talked eloquently, his maroon eyes exuded a unique brilliance, and the whole person exuded the same temperament, which made her unconvinced, that even if he looked a little embarrassed, he couldn't hide it, confident temperament, and then asked seriously

"So how can we change the status quo?"

Sim shook the steel teeth in his hand, the sword still cold after all the fighting, he sheathed it, stroked his chest, and showed his trademark hearty smile

"It's up to you to follow the advice of my mere knight-to-be, Your Highness the Princess."

Trapped in the gray-black mist, Her Royal Highness the Honorable Princess lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands, returned the same salute, and responded to him with a gentle smile

"A thousand years ago, there was a legend of the princess and the knight here, and a thousand years later, this folding sword platform that has witnessed history still exists, although I dare not compare with that ancestor, but I have also been longing for the behavior of the ancestor for a long time, I don't know what you think, Mr. Knight?"

Sim chuckled and shook his head, then solemnly looked at the night-chasing doll wrapped in gray-black air, and said slowly

"As you wish, Your Highness."
