Chapter 119: Burning the Earth
Leon joining his side is undoubtedly too good news for Roque. www.biquge.info With the help of Leon and Chris, Roque believes that even if he encounters the combined army of shadow plane creatures + monster legions, he will not be powerless to fight back. And as long as the difference in numbers is not too great, the strength of his own group is enough to save his life.
At present, Chris's strength is in a state of around the fifth order, which is a whole big order higher than Roque, and when Roque left Yuanle Village, Chris was only a fourth order. Roque worked hard to be promoted to the fourth rank, and Chris surpassed himself quietly, which made Roque sigh that the protagonist's luck was good.
If Chris's strength advancement speed has already made Roque feel ashamed, Leon's strength directly makes Roque unable to even complain.
In Roque's induction, Leon's strength level was relatively vague, and on the surface it was about the same level as Chris, but Roque, who had felt the incomparable dark aura on the battlefield just now, understood that Leon's true strength was far more than the fifth order.
However, this may also have something to do with Leon's "plot progression" being higher than Chris's.
Because in the original game, Chris was a plot character who appeared at the beginning, and his level was not much higher than that of Kurto when he first appeared, while Leon was almost a character who appeared in the late stages of the story, and he was at the peak of his skills as soon as he appeared.
Although Leon came to Anais early due to some unknown reasons, it seems that this strength has not been weakened in the slightest.
Thinking so, Roque quickly made a detailed plan for his own combat power in his mind.
As swordsmen, Leon and Chris are undoubtedly front-line players, and as a French profession, of course, they can only stand in the rear to provide support. But then the team is missing the most crucial member: the meat shield!
When Bilmark was in Bilmark, the team member of the meat shield was usually served by Milu or Kurto in turn, after all, the two of them both had strong defense and endurance far beyond ordinary people, although they had cultivated the Hundred Refining Divine Body, they would not be inferior to the two in terms of physical defense ability alone, but ...... I'm a legal profession now! Have you ever seen a French class that doesn't fire in the rear but instead fights the enemy hand-to-hand? Even if you're a dresser, you can switch to the physical meat shield class, but in this case, there is a lack of real magic players in the team, and it will hurt to face some monsters.
So what to do? Meet up with Finn later, and let him send a Flesh Shield teammate? It's impossible to think about.
Roque was distressed, but caught a glimpse of Matthew standing dumbfounded.
For some reason, he had in his mind a petite body holding a huge shield in both hands, blocking all the ferocious attacks of his enemies.
it! It's too cruel to let a little girl be a meat shield? I'm really pumping my brain.
Roque hastened to put the idea behind him.
Unexpectedly, Roque's action happened to be seen by Chris, and he asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Roque, why are you shaking your head all of a sudden? ”
"Ah, it's fine. I'm just thinking about a question. Roque decided to put the issue aside for the time being, anyway, he didn't need to fight the enemy for a while, and he would talk about it later.
"That's good. I had been talking to Leon for a while, and he said that we would better leave as soon as possible if we could. Because when he came here, he happened to see a huge ...... A scene where a monster slaughters an army. According to your intelligence, the army that was slaughtered should be the army of the Yug Empire. Since there is such a big emergency, it is very likely that the Yug Empire will send more powerful forces to find out the reason, and it is still difficult to fight with a few of us, so it is better to leave this place as soon as possible. Chris suggested.
“…… Well, you're right. But before we can do that, we need to find Finn and them......"
"Aha! Isn't this Lord Roque! I thought you had gone back, but I didn't expect to meet you here! Fate, fate. Roque was stunned and looked at Finn who came out of nowhere next to him, this guy's attitude was almost the same as before, if he didn't know, he thought that Finn and he were very close!
"Hey, this little girl is so familiar, oh I remember, you're the one called Lance...... The knight saved the girl from it! Finn pretended to recognize Matthew's identity and said in an extremely pompous tone.
"It's Uncle Lancelot." Matthew corrected.
"Oh yes, yes, yes! Lancelot! He's a respectable knight, don't you? Finn was extremely enthusiastic about getting close to Mathew, which made Roque almost think that his lolicon attribute was stimulated, so frightened that Roque hurriedly blocked Finn who was about to put his face in front of Mathew, looked at him vigilantly and said, "Captain Finn, if I'm not mistaken, you still seem to be against me adopting Mathew." ”
"Oops" Finn covered her forehead in annoyance, with a look of remorse: "Later, I realized that Sister Matthew is so pitiful, she has to live alone and shoulder the burden of survival at such a young age, where can she bear it!" It's good that you adopted her with Roque, otherwise ......" said Finn, putting his hands on Roque's shoulders and saying "sincerely", "Matthew will ask you in the future." If there is anything I can do to help, just come to me, and I will try to do my part. It wasn't like Finn could say that. Roque thought.
But no matter what, Roque can't reach out and hit the smiley man, at least not on the surface: "Hmm. You can rest assured. ”
"And the two swordsmen next to you, you are also Roque's companions. I'm Finn, and I'm currently the captain of Team Seven sent here by the Sage's Tower. First meeting. Finn began to exchange pleasantries with Chris, but only Chris responded to him, and Leon ignored him, much to Finn's embarrassment.
"Okay, I believe you also know what the current situation is, according to my information, the main army of the Yug Empire has attacked the capital of the Duchy of Clinston, and the strength of the Duchy of Clinstown cannot hold on for too long, so it is already a desperate situation. Therefore, there is a proposal that we should now set out as quickly as possible to the capital of Urushar to support them. Finn said righteously.
"It's not impossible. But I have a question, with me, Chris, Leon, and the dozens of people in your Sage's Tower, how can we stop the monster legion of the Yog Empire? Roque was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask this question that had been buried in his heart for a long time.
"That's it," Finn smiled mysteriously, pulling out a bottle from his bosom, which was filled with a green, viscous liquid.
"This bottle of 'Breath of Mana' has been crafted by the alchemists of our Sage's Tower to be a secret weapon to deal with the monster legions of the Yog Empire. When the time comes, as long as this thing is sprinkled on the battlefield, within a moment, nine out of ten monsters will collapse to the ground and cannot move. Finn shook the bottle a few times, and the green liquid inside shimmered brightly, and Matthew looked at the bottle and seemed to like it.
"In that case, I'll be fine." Just as Roque was about to agree, Finn suddenly said something more.
"But Roque, are you sure you want to take Sister Matthew with you? You have to make sure we're not on vacation, in case something goes wrong......," Finn gestured to Matthew.
"This ......" Roque was also a little embarrassed for a while, because it was indeed a little inconvenient to bring Matthew.
"I have a suggestion. I instructed one of my team members to stay here and take care of Matthew, while we continued on to the capital. If you're still not sure, I'll have the team take Matthew with him to another city that hasn't been attacked, and then take Matthew away when you return. That's all it takes. Finn seemed to have a solid suggestion to Roque.
Roque thought for a while, and also thought that there was nothing wrong with Finn's suggestion, so he agreed to his proposal: "Okay, then there is Captain Laufen." ”
"You're welcome. I also have a big crush on Sister Matthew. Seeing that the conspiracy had been accomplished, Finn was secretly happy in his heart, and a smile bloomed on his face.
Matthew looked at the faces of Finn and Roque, who seemed a little confused.
……
After arranging Matthew, Roque and Finn and dozens of people left Theresa directly and began to rush towards the capital with all their might.
Because of the urgency, everyone, including Roque, was moving at full speed.
At this moment, the strength of everyone is very obvious.
In the first echelon are Roque, Chris, Leon, Finn and several players that Roque doesn't know, the gap between this group of people is not too big, of course, it is also related to the deliberate retention of strength by some people.
The second echelon is all from the Sage Tower, although these people can't catch up with the people in the first echelon, but they have not been pulled too far, which shows that the average strength level of the Sage Tower is actually very high.
After everyone continued to march for about half an hour, one of the team members at the head of the team suddenly exclaimed, "Huh? Why is there a fire in front? ”
"What? Fire, you say? Finn was stunned.
But soon everyone saw what was ahead.
I saw that hundreds of miles ahead were shrouded in thick firelight, the smoke stained the sky black, and everywhere I saw was a raging flame, and the corpses of unknown creatures that had been burned to char and weapons that were almost burned by fire could be faintly seen on the ground.
And...... At the end of this burning earth, a huge black shadow stood.
