Chapter 249: The Sealed Land (Where Are You...... )
There is no essential difference between the Skasi continent and the current Skasi continent, this land is relatively barren and hot, and it is not suitable for the survival of elves, humans and other races, or other places, such as the plains of Osayr, have a more suitable climate and location for all races to thrive.
Of course, this does not mean that there are no races in the Skarda West Continent, the entire Skar world is full of many strange races, and even now, there are many large and small creatures that stubbornly survive in the Skarsi Continent. However, compared to before the demon attack, this place is obviously more decadent.
Originally, the Skasi continent still had a fragile ecological environment, and although it was fragile, as long as it took its time, it could prosper. But the invasion of the demons has directly led to the barrenness of the present - in the later stage of the war, the demons retreated from the Skasi continent to the Sky Clan, and the destruction of the places they passed was devastating, and the remaining demonic energy alienated many benevolent creatures, making them brutal, bloodthirsty, and extremely aggressive.
The passage that was originally used to connect the Sky Clan and the Skar Continent was also forcibly expanded by the Demon Clan, causing a large number of Demon Clans to escape into the territory of the Sky Clan today. Of course, the original demons did not seal the passage, but the chasing humans and elven powerhouses sealed the passage, they understood that the Skar continent did not have the ability to fight against the demons, and the emerging Skar kingdom also needed time to recover, and there was no energy war again, in terms of recovery speed, the demons were much faster, which was why they dared not to seal the channel.
But the Skar Kingdom sealed the passage, and this seal is three hundred years.
Now. The seal has begun to loosen under the impact of the years, and the entire demon army is about to return to the Skar Continent. In the event that things don't reach the worst, the kingdom of Skar must respond and prepare. It's obvious. That's what we're here for today.
Nie Shuang raised his head, looking at the surroundings and the sky with infinite shock in his heart.
This place, called the Sealed Land, uses a special prohibition to separate the connection with the Skar Kingdom, and it is impossible to enter without special means, and players also need to reach the level to allow them to enter. At present, Nie Shuang and the others are still the first players to enter here, and naturally, the current scenery is also the first time to see it-
Slightly overcast skies. The clouds are thick and visible to the naked eye, and the depths block the sunlight, making them look a little dim; Looking slightly, it is a wasteland connected to the skyline, and the small undulating hills of the highlands are connected, as if from the gap between heaven and earth, a strong wind blows, and the wind is blowing. There is a faint moisture, brushing on the face and body, cool and silky, even if the sun is shining. I also felt the chill.
"Click-click-"
Behind him, there was a sudden sound of armor colliding, and he looked back. It turned out that it was those kingdom soldiers who opened the formation with serious faces, protecting Rejana in the center. But Regina's gaze. Not there, she rode on a white warhorse. There was not a trace of a smile on her face, the wind of the Western Continent, stirring the wine-red magnificence, raised one after another, her brows were furrowed, and the worry in her eyes could be clearly seen by anyone......
Nie Shuang finally understood what she was thinking. Once, Regina and Ilf told Nie Shuang again and again that the demons were coming, and the Skar Kingdom was in danger, and he didn't care about it before, but now, he understood-
Looking up, following Regina's gaze, he also looked at the strange thing that hung high above the sky in the distance:
That's a giant teleportation channel.
The teleportation channel hanging above the sky dome is wide in area, and when you look at it, it is about the size of a circle that three evil dragon shadows are connected and rotated from the head to the end, and when viewed from the side, it looks like a funnel, with a disc-shaped front end, slightly rotating, and a thin end, and finally disappears...... Like a starry sky, gray-black energy flowed softly, spinning clockwise towards the bottom of the funnel.
That's not shocking enough.
But there was another thing on the disc that was surprisingly speechless.
On top of the disk, giant iron chains are intertwined, and the magic lines on the chains are clearly visible, but the light of magic is scattered and faint. At the other end, the chain hung down to the ground and dug deep into the earth, seemingly bolting the massive passage to the ground, immobilizing it......
"That's the passage that connects the Skar Continent to the Sky Clan." Regina said in a deep voice, her gaze locked on the gray-black disc in the sky, "It is the Heavenly Path, through it, you can enter the Sky Clan, and in the same way, the other side can also reach the Skar Continent." ”
Nie Shuang groaned silently, his face a little solemn. The seemingly powerful iron chain, if you look closely, you can clearly see the cracks in it, densely crawling all over every part of the giant iron chain, the closer to the iron chain of the disk, the more broken, there are few intact pieces.
Looking a little farther away, there was a huge iron chain that had long been broken on the ground, and the magical light on it had been completely annihilated, and the lines were also dim......
"Qiang—"
Suddenly, Regina pulled out the long sword on her left waist, and the tip of the sword pointed at the "Heavenly Path", and on the spine of the sword, the thorn flower carved with four petals was clearly visible, as if to announce the fearlessness of this woman.
"When those chains are completely broken—" she said, "the demons will return to this land, the world will no longer be peaceful, and all the races of the Skar continent will once again fall into the shadow of the demons, and the lives will be miserable, and the people will not be able to survive!" Tell me-" Regina suddenly looked at Nie Shuang, her brows furrowed, and her eyes were serious:
"Tell me—" She repeated, completely attracting Nie Shuang's gaze: "Your Excellency, tell me, what should I do!" ”
Regina is serious.
Nie Shuang could see from her eyes that this empress was really asking him seriously. She is probably very helpless, the Skar Kingdom and even the continent are now in ruins, and they have not yet recovered, but a bigger problem is in front of everyone...... Oh no, maybe ordinary people don't know, and even many players haven't paid attention to it, this question is in front of the top management of the Scar Kingdom:
Demons, they're coming back!
What to do? What can I do? Nie Shuang didn't know that as a player, he hadn't even stood at the highest point, and even the hidden man behind him was probably more effective than him at this time: anyway, he had a lot of subordinates who could help, and Nie Shuang only had himself.
Shaking his head, Nie Shuang said: "After holding on for so long, Her Majesty probably won't want to give up easily, right?" I don't want to ask the Empress to believe me, but I hope that Her Majesty will believe in us, that we are saviors and will promise not to tarnish the name! ”
Regina's clear eyes stared at Nie Shuang, and she opened her mouth several times, but she didn't make a sound.
"As a friend...... Nie Shuang continued, "perhaps a little presumptuous, Her Majesty Empress Regina, can I be your friend?" ”
Her eyes widened, and after her eyes flickered a few times, Regina nodded a little shyly: "Yes, you can." ”
"That's great!" Nie Shuang smiled softly, "As a friend, I will always stand by your side - Regina, even if one day the demon clan really overthrows the Skar Continent, I will fight with you until the last drop of blood." ”
Nie Shuang's words were like an orange epic scroll with huge destructive power, and he also increased the actual damage of the scroll with a "gentle smile", and hit Regina's little heart fiercely. This empress, who is high above and exists at the top of the human race in the Skar Continent, is also like a girl at this time, looking at Nie Shuang with a strange light in her eyes, and the peach on her cheeks clearly shows a trace of her emotion-
Oh, I forgot, Regina is a girl, but her age is no longer a girl, but her mentality is probably not too mature - at least emotionally.
Regina's ability to control her emotions is quite good, and as an empress, she is very good at that. The tears in the corners of her eyes flickered a few times in the sun, and in an instant they were swept away by her inconspicuous movements, the reins were pulled hard, and the white war horse slowly walked forward-
Today I'm not here to see the scenery, but to fight monsters.
With a war horse between his legs, Nie Shuang followed Regina, and after precipitating his mood, his attention focused on the surroundings - the seemingly calm surroundings were hidden, but there was a hidden aura of disharmony, the black aura that flowed from time to time, and the feeling of being spied on as if there was nothing had already filled the whole body, and every cell in the skin could feel it.
"Hum—"
"Whew!!"
Suddenly, there was a fluctuation in the surrounding space, and then, I saw that in the space, I slowly walked out of the monster with black gas all over my body, my eyes shining with a red strange light, and a violent mood spreading. These are the demons who came through the rift in the Heavenly Path, and they have probably been waiting here for a long time!
The crack of the Heavenly Path has now been big enough to be an apostle-level monster, the war puppet of the twelve apostles? That's how scrap metal came, but probably, the Heavenly Journey wasn't enough to support more coming.
Nie Shuang and the others are here to exterminate the war puppets? Scrap iron, and the surrounding demons of various forms are just small minions! Since it is the other party's soldiers, of course, it is also up to your own soldiers to deal with them.
Rejana's greatsword suddenly swung forward, shouting with Sensen's anger, "Kill them!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the kingdom soldiers behind him immediately took action, just like the player, the kingdom soldiers also have professions, and they act a few points faster than the player, the auxiliary profession is in the state, the warrior resists the shield and comes forward, the assassin has entered invisibility, and the magic light of the mage begins to gather......
Soldier to soldier, general to general, all players, including Nie Shuang, together with Rejana, have to deal with not those soldiers, but the twelve apostles of the demon race who still refuse to show up:
War puppets? Scrap! (To be continued......)
