Chapter 16: The General's Palace
On the outskirts of the city-state of Noxus.
Su Yun hugged and comforted Lux, who was crying in his arms, and gently patted her back with one hand, just now, she had already used her family glory and bloodline to swear according to Nirvana's instructions.
Seeing that the mentor has managed to get an epic plot character so lightly, he is also a little admired, although it is a girl who has not yet grown up, so that one day in the future, if he enters the plot world of Runeteres again, he will be able to have two strong back-ups in Ionia and Demacia!
Su Yun's arm has an eagle symbol representing Demacia, which is the proof that Lux made a blood oath to him, and it is also the proof that he will re-enter the plot in the future.
"Ding, you have completed the first ring of the epic story mission: The Beginning of Redemption, and the contractor 1303 has received an A-level plot reward, a B-level plot reward, and 25,000 origin points. The reputation of the relevant faction will be calculated when the contractor leaves this world. ”
"Ding, you've received the second ring of the epic story quest: Resurrection after Death
Since the Contractor is assisted by a high-level Contractor from the space, the difficulty of this mission will be greatly reduced.
Mission Level: Epic
Difficulty: B+ (Hard)
Mission Type: Story Mission
Content: Assist the elite of the dreadnought vanguard who are besieged in the headquarters of the Rayser garrison to escape, basic requirements, the main plot characters - General Pace, Galen Krongard, cannot die, and the other members will receive an additional 1000 points for each surviving one.
Duration: three hours
Task rewards: One B-level plot reward, two C-level plot rewards, 10,000 origin points.
Failure penalty: 30,000 origin points will be deducted, and the plot entry point of the plot will be lost. ”
Su Yun asked Lux to sit peacefully on the ground and wait, and then walked to Nirvana's side.
"Teacher, how should we accomplish this task" Su Yun asked, in his eyes, it was difficult to release such a group of key people from the headquarters of the Rayser garrison.
What kind of people are the Rayser garrisons, they are all the most wolf-like soldiers in Noxus, and the weakest warriors in them also have the strength of the second-order peak! Throw him in, he can't beat even a single person, let alone an entire army!
However, in the end, Space only gave a B+ (difficult) task difficulty evaluation, and it is conceivable that this task should have a rather critical breakthrough.
"The key to this task is still up to you......"
The Grand General's Mansion of Noxus
It is a palace perched high on a hill and the tallest complex in the entire city-state of Noxus.
The pitch-black minaret towered high into the pitch-black clouds, like a sharp sword piercing the sky, and the black clouds swirled around the minaret, looking mysterious and strange.
Below the high spire is a large black masonry palace, the bright and quaint walls appear to have a cold and noble temperament in the moonlight, and the windows on the walls are all square-shaped, and the gray-black glass on them is filled with a cold light. There are some black trees planted in the palace, with pitch-black leaves, the leaves are glowing with dark purple magical inscriptions, and the trunks are carved with noble and ancient magical characters.
The floor of the complex is made of magical synthetic stone mixed with obsidian powder, which has been used for an unknown number of years, and is still intact and undamaged, and it is said that every inch of the floor tiles here has been sacrificed with blood, has the ability to restore itself, and every year there is a full-time magic stone to maintain the tiles.
Between the palaces, groups of soldiers in pitch-black armor walked by with uniform steps, these are the Praetorian Guards subordinate to the general, and they are also the most noble army in Noxus, responsible for the daily security of the General's Mansion, there are not many of them, but they are better than the elite, and every black-armored soldier here is transferred out, which is enough to command a force in the Rayser garrison.
The black armor on their bodies is also the best alchemy armor in Noxus, which is forged by the famous alchemy master of Zuan, Black Rokiel, although Black Rokiel has passed away, but the dozens of sets of black magic armor he created are permanently preserved in the Noxian General's Mansion, and only the soldiers who are responsible for guarding the General's Mansion are qualified to wear this set of armor.
Tonight is not destined to be quiet.
The city-state of Noxus was on fire everywhere, and from a high ground like the General's Palace, you could see the chaos of the entire city, but these warriors in black armor were indifferent.
It's not that they're passive and slacking off, but the rule of Noxus is that the nobles' private armies can't step into the territory of other nobles at will.
Wesson felt that he was particularly irritable today.
He is a cook in the General's Mansion, as a chef who is qualified to enter the General's Mansion to be in charge, his cooking skills can be said to be first-class in the whole of Noxus and even the entire continent, but he is only a cook after all, which is also destined for him to have no way to resist the soldiers who are powerful on his head.
For example, tonight, the area where the riot occurred was the area where his wife and children were located, and he wanted to go back to see the safety of his family, but Conton, the chief of the guard who was in charge of guarding the General's Mansion, told him that it was strictly forbidden to enter and leave the General's Mansion tonight.
Wesson expressed strong dissatisfaction with Condon, but he couldn't do anything, when it came to force, even if a hundred Wessons were on the same page, they wouldn't be able to touch Condon's armor.
So he could only stay in the castle, stand on the rooftop, and look out at the way he looked.
At this moment, two figures appeared behind him.
As a cook, Weston's perception is obviously not high, and it wasn't until someone patted him on the shoulder that he reacted, someone appeared behind him, he was first shocked, and then his heart was relieved, and he was surprised that someone appeared behind him quietly, and the loose thing was that this was the General's Mansion, the safest place in the entire Noxus, so he didn't have to worry about the enemy at all.
He looked back and saw two men in black armor standing behind him, one of whom he knew, the chief of the guard Condon who had stopped him from leaving the General's Mansion, and the other man in black armor had put down the mask of the armor, so he couldn't see his face clearly.
Wesson turned his head in displeasure and continued to drink, ignoring Condon, although he had no way to deal with Condon, but Conton didn't want to deal with himself, although he was just a cook, but he was a personal chef directly subordinate to the general, and he still had some status.
"I'm sorry, friend, just now you asked me in front of everyone if I could go out, of course I can't let you out in front of everyone, I can understand your feelings, I'm here to provide you with an extra choice?" Condon said in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Oh, what choice?" Wesson asked.
"The general wants to know what's going on in the Eastern District, but our guards can't spare manpower, and I heard that you want to go back to the Eastern District? That's why I'm going to send you to the East End to find out what's going on. Conton said.
Weston's eyes lit up and he said, "Okay, how do I get out?" ”
Conton took out a magic scroll, handed it to Weston, and said, "This is a scroll that is teleported to the East, but you only have four hours, after four hours, the scroll will be invalid, and you will be teleported back here, and then you tell me about the situation in the Eastside, no one will know about it, and we have each achieved our goal." ”
Weason took the scroll with some solemnity, looked up at Condon, and found that Condon was a little different, to be precise, his eyes were a little deeper than before, and the murderous aura around his body seemed to be a little stronger than before. Wesson thought about it and thought that maybe it was an extraordinary time, so it was normal for Condon to have some changes.
So he pulled the scroll open.
"Huh"
"Ding, you have successfully copied the personality information of the plot character Wesson, and in the next four hours, you can get Wesson's plot identity."
The moment he saw the other party pull open the scroll, Su Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
He and Nirvana's plan has finally been implemented to the point where it is crucial.
First of all, Nirvana transferred his possession role from that bearded man to this Condon's body, as a fourth-order contractor, if he wants to forcibly possess his body, he can only choose the target of first-order or second-order strength, and fortunately, this Condon's strength is just at the level of the peak of the second-order.
After possession, Nirvana quickly mastered most of Condon's memories, and then found a breakthrough in the General's Mansion, and based on Condon's memories, they chose Cook Wesson as an entry point.
Next, Nirvana simply made a functional scroll, the effect is to temporarily switch the plot identity of the contractor, for example, Su Yun's current identity is after the Ionian magic family, Master Carlos, after using this scroll, in a short time, he will switch his identity to the plot character who opens the scroll.
Due to Su Yun's low strength, he could only choose a person like a chef who had no combat effectiveness.
Su Yun touched the beard on his chin, took care of the mirror in front of him, and then made an ok gesture to Nirvana, I have to say that Nirvana, as a mentor, has shown him a very good plot exploration ability, and just such a single-handed plot identity switch, the plot effect that can be produced is really very much.
"Listen, according to my induction, there is a very powerful force at the bottom of the General's Mansion, there may be a hole under the ground of this palace, our chance to break the game may be here, at present, Noxus can only threaten me is the Great General of Noxus, his strength should also be the fourth order, if my body is here, it will not be a problem, but I am now in a state of possession, many means cannot be used, I can help you drag him and attract attention, but you have to do it as soon as possible, what you have to do, It is to unleash the imprisoned power underneath! ”
Su Yun nodded and said, "Does the mentor know what's going on below?" ”
"I don't know, there are multiple magic underneath this to cover up the fluctuations, I have a preliminary conjecture, but it has not been verified, you have to go down and act on your own." Nirvana said.
Su Yun nodded, and then the two staggered by, Nirvana ran towards the center of the palace, while Su Yun ran down the descending stairs towards the basement.
