Boom!

There was a bang, and the steel-cast door of the Platinum Tower burst open. The Man in the Iron Mask held his head in his hands to protect the vital point of charge, but the expected ambush explosion did not appear, and the whole floor was quiet and dim, and the tall bookshelves pulled the glimmer of the wall lamps into a long shadow, like a guard and a tombstone.

The sound of gunfire outside paused, and the attackers quickly rushed into the Platinum Tower to rest. By the time they approached the door, the men guarding the main gate had already dispersed, and the attackers had no intention of pursuing them—the mission was in sight, and they knew what was important.

Syllable!

When the steel-cast door closed again, the chief steward casually pulled out a book from the shelf, lit the lighter and glanced at it: "The Ancient Dragon Species Illustrated Book? It is a rare treasure, but the dragon beasts recorded above are probably only a handful, and after a few decades, maybe everyone does not believe that there was an ancient dragon species before...... It's useless to stay. ”

He lit the book and stuffed it into the shelf, which quickly burst into flames during the dry weather of the Mid-Autumn Festival, engulfing the entire bookshelf and illuminating the dimly lit hall.

"Are there any casualties?" The Grand Steward asked.

"Two dead." Someone in the Brotherhood said, "One is your people, and the other is our 'greedy cup.'" He couldn't dodge, got a blow to the head, and fainted to the ground. ”

There were Wei Weiwei and Yan Tong Operators outside, and they fainted in their heads, and the basic ending was doomed.

Le Yu looked around and found that the cursed hunter who had been severely injured by the cicada dust had severed his hamstrings and his tail vertebrae was also dragged in, and he was surrounded by other cursed hunters, as if he was in emergency treatment, and after a while, the hunter with the cane also regained his combat effectiveness.

Although it had been expected, Le Yu couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

Only two died!

He was paving the ground, pretending to be a ghost, laying a net of heaven and earth before and after, and even a group of vicious cadres of Yantong as the executors, who spent a lot of effort to arrange the 'Huangquan Road', but only killed the two of them!

The combat power is undamaged, and there is still residual strength!

Terrifying!

These people must not stay!

"That's just one death." The Grand Steward said lightly.

The others were stunned, but they saw with their own eyes that the man in the iron mask named 'Two' had his head cut off by the royal teacher, and that wasn't it? Or do they save the country and relieve the disaster will not treat people as human beings, so they can't be regarded as dead people?

Syllable!

Suddenly, a corpse was thrown out, and it was the headless corpse of Number Two. Everyone didn't look carefully just now, but now they have changed their faces when they see it - there is no blood in the place where the neck is broken!

Another man in the iron mask hugged his head and pressed Two's head against the broken neck like a piece of furniture with a mortise and tenon structure, making a sound like a gear clattering.

Although it was unbelievable, seeing them in such a state, everyone else held their breath, and they didn't dare to blink their eyes, staring at the corpse of No. 2!

"No. 2 has the strongest combat power, and he can't do it without him." The chief manager sighed and took out a box from his bosom, and in the box was a square piece of ice, and inside the ice was a golden ruby that shimmered with golden light, like golden blood!

He brought the ice close to the burning bookshelf, and the ice quickly melted to reveal the golden ruby inside, and then he stuffed the golden ruby into Two's mouth, and the next second Two's whole body was covered with blood-red lines, and blood suddenly gushed out from the broken neck!

Click, click!

Number Two stood up while twisting his neck, and his neck made a scalp-tinging bone sound, and he immediately stood behind the chief manager as if nothing happened!

Everyone was stunned, confused, surprised, greedy, and even more afraid!

"Very well, let's move on." The chief manager patted No. 2 on the shoulder with satisfaction, he seemed to have only noticed the other people's expressions now, and his ugly face showed surprise: "What's wrong?" Don't look at me, I only have one piece of blood essence stone, and if you die, you will really die. ”

"Blood Essence Stone?" A three-spear disciple frowned slightly: "Is it an extreme divine soldier?" Phantom Soldiers? Or is it armed? ”

"Actually, it's not even a god's arm." The chief manager smiled: "It can only be regarded as a hand-carved treasure." Well, it's normal for you not to know, this is a resource unique to the president, and it has never been circulated. ”

"Don't be so surprised, believe in knowledge, it is impossible for this world to come back from the dead, but it is not impossible for people who have just died to come back to life. Didn't the chief medical officer have many cases of the 'living dead'? The Blood Essence Stone is equivalent to the medical officer who has reached the peak of the Extreme Creation Realm to help with all his might, which can make people whose brains have not been destroyed quickly regain consciousness. ”

"If the National Salvation Society is willing to sell this item, no matter what the asking price is, the Storm Army will definitely get it!" The Brotherhood said immediately.

"Although as long as the asking price is right, the merchant even dares to sell it to his parents, but the Blood Essence Stone is useless to outsiders, and only those of us who have been 'cultivated' by the President can have the means to absorb the energy of the Blood Essence Stone...... And now is not the right time to do business. The Grand Steward looked around the hall and smiled.

At this point, the others didn't ask much, but there was a strange glint in their eyes.

Even if there are many preconditions, but this is a prop that can bring people back from the dead, who can not be impressed? Even if it is really not sold, there will be such a group of guards with extraordinary strength and resurrection to save the country, which is enough for the forces behind them to re-examine the energy of this partner.

Le Yu thought deeper: If the reality is as they wish, Cha Huan dies, and Qin Le Yin breaks his hand, then there will be no fairness in the next sword hunting competition, and he will directly enter the kryptonite competition and offline real Kombat links. At this time, the National Salvation Relief will suddenly show its muscles, including guards with extraordinary combat power and props that can resurrect the dead...... After this battle, the National Salvation Association will directly become a chess player on the table and participate in the competition for supreme power!

What's more, the weakened morale is up again!

Having witnessed the 'miracle', the remaining attackers were more confident about what to do, and they had entered the Platinum Tower, and in this closed environment, it was impossible for those stinky fish and shrimp to compete with them!

"Although I thought it was impossible before, I didn't expect it to be so magical......" The Grand Steward gazed at the walls of the Platinum Pagoda and sighed, "I can only carry out the second plan." ”

"What's the first plan?" Someone asked.

"The first plan is to blow up the Platinum Pagoda directly with gunpowder on the first floor, and then slowly search for the Platinum Pagoda when it collapses."

Everyone's eyes lit up - what a great idea! Because the Platinum Pagoda is too grandiose, and it is a symbol of the royal house, these thugs who are used to killing people and setting fires have not thought of destroying the Platinum Pagoda as an option, but in fact, they have all broken into the Platinum Pagoda, do they still need to care about any morality?

"But the walls of the Platinum Pagoda are not only hard in stone, but the headmasters seem to have done their tricks. They used the power of the Spirit Sea to connect every piece of the Platinum Pagoda and every floor, and the Platinum Pagoda was a whole - even if we piled all the gunpowder together and exploded, the power of the explosion would be dispersed throughout the Platinum Pagoda, and not even a single hole could be blown out! ”

"How can there be such a strange thing?" The Brotherhood questioned, "If this technology is used in the defense of the city, wouldn't it be a fortress that will never be easy to come by?" But—"

"If you don't talk about dose, you are playing hooligan." The chief manager said lightly: "After many years of the imperial courtyard, the principals of the past dynasties are basically martial pillars, so they can only build such a platinum pagoda. If the walls of the entire city are connected, how many pillars do you think will be needed to move the bricks? If you don't believe me, try to make a hole in the wall. ”

The cursed hunter named 'Piercing Bone' immediately drew his meat saw, and slashed it the ground, only to make a spark, and the saw's teeth were rolled up, and he couldn't even scratch the marks.

At this moment, everyone didn't believe it, but they also had to believe it, and they all looked at the chief manager with admiration, and some people asked suspiciously: "You didn't test it just now, you can see it directly with the naked eye?" ”

"I've tested it before." The chief manager said: "But I used to think that the sunlight strengthened the defense of the Platinum Tower during the day, but now when I enter the Platinum Tower late at night, I finally confirm that it is not the sunlight defense, but the overall defense." ”

"Wait, so they can keep us out just by blocking the main entrance?" Suddenly, someone was surprised and said, "But the main door opened as soon as it was pushed just now......"

"There is no main entrance, and there are windows. Moreover, the main entrance is often closed, and it is impossible to hook up with the whole, and it is certainly possible to blow it up with explosives. The chief manager said: "However, they directly give up using the main gate to delay time, which means ......"

The chief steward looked at the spiral staircase ahead of the tower: "There are still many good things waiting for us ahead. ”

A weed-cutting messenger gritted his teeth and said, "They will regret it!" ”

"You'll regret it."

Suddenly, an empty voice echoed in the hall, and everyone froze, including Leyu.

"Who is it!?" The curse hunter roared and jumped to the bookshelf to observe the entire hall: "Do you think you can hide!?" ”

"I didn't hide it."

The chief manager frowned slightly, and suddenly said, "No. 1, count the number of people again!" ”

"Two grass slashers, four cursed hunters, two three-gun disciples, one Tibetan sword assassin, five brotherhoods, six guards, a total of twenty people." Number One replied.

The chief steward nodded, and suddenly asked, "When you set off, how many people were there?" ”

"Twenty-three."

When Number One replied indifferently, everyone was stunned.

They also remembered that when they set out from the courtyard, there were twenty-three people.

But just now on the road, a black-clothed three-gun disciple, two grass cutting messengers, and a brotherhood dead soldier first died, a total of four people.

Theoretically, there should only be nineteen left!

Why are there twenty!?

"Each faction, check the internal members of yelves, and report their names!" The chief steward exclaimed, "Count again!" ”

"Grass Chopping Messenger, Breaking the Stream, Breaking the Fire!"

"Cursed hunter, stinging, stump, chilling, unheard!"

"Three-gun disciple, Wang Xin, Fu Junyuan."

"Brotherhood, Weishui, Nuga......"

Everyone honestly reported their names, including Leyu, who also reported the nickname 'Yin Yin Yin', but the number was still twenty!

Or one more!

Many people showed horror on their faces and even fell to the ground!

Who can participate in this operation is not a human spirit? As early as when they set out, they secretly remembered the number of other forces, and they were very sure that when they set out, it would be twenty-three!

Even if someone does join the team halfway, they will definitely find that there are more people from other forces. But now that they think back to the time of departure, they counted the dead as well, and found that there were twenty-four of them!

On one side are the memories that I have confirmed, and there are only twenty-three people;

On one side is the unmistakable reality, there really are twenty-four people!

Is the memory wrong, or is the reality wrong?

"I heard."

The chief steward suddenly spoke: "Hundreds of years ago, the northern grass barbarians exhausted the accumulated heritage of thousands of years, and launched the largest southward invasion in winter, which was known as the 'White Plague' in history. They were like bamboos, almost cutting through the entire Yanyun, until they reached Yanjing, when the reigning Emperor Muzong decisively used the holy sword Huiyao, and slashed three thousand miles with one sword, and there were Northern Barbarian heads everywhere. But because of the excessive wear and tear of life, he died a year later. ”

Everyone knows this history very well, after all, this is the closest to the modern record of the use of the Holy Sword Radiance, but I don't know why the chief manager suddenly said this.

"At that time, Cao Man was able to chisel through Youyun, not because of how strong Cao Man was, but because the fortress defense line in Youyun District collapsed without defending, and Cao Man opened the door to meet the enemy as soon as he came, and almost surrendered."

"Impossible!" The grass cutting envoy subconsciously burst out: "It is impossible for the Youyun people to collude with the grass barbarians!" ”

The chief steward ignored him and continued: "Even after Mu Zong's death, the imperial court still thoroughly investigated Youyun for five years, killing people to the core, resulting in the Youyun family not being a single one, and all the officials changed one after another, but still no clues could be found. I don't know why, the imperial court stopped checking, and the records of the 'White Disaster' were destroyed and diluted, and now no one knows the shameful history of Youyun facing the enemy. ”

However, the Qincha who investigated the change of the clouds hid that secret in the codex and passed it down. Because this secret is so weird that even if they risk killing their heads, they are not willing to let these secrets disappear in history! ”

"They found out that it was indeed someone who opened the city gate to greet Cao Man, and even assassinated his colleague Shangguan and betrayed Huiyao!"

"Those betrayers, although many of the survivors know him, but they can't say his name, they don't know his past, and they can't even tell his official position, origin, relatives, friends, and deeds!"

"The final investigation results of the Qincha found that those betrayers were actually barbaric! But he used a certain secret method so that everyone who saw the betrayer would subconsciously regard him as a companion, and would not doubt the authenticity of the betrayer at all! ”

When they heard this, they shuddered and cursed the hunter and said, "Is there such a treacherous technique in the world? Why didn't you kill the grass barbarians at that time, if the grass barbarians made a comeback-"

"I had such concerns after reading the secrets in the Codex." The chief steward said, "But if you think about it, the Qincha have already been recruited. ”

"Why would they know that this was a brutal secret and not that someone had been bought?"

"Why can they be sure that the betrayer is a barbarian, not a ghost?"

"Why do they dare to submit such an unbelievable report, aren't they afraid that the emperor will blame them?"

"The truth is that the reason why the Qincha investigated this truth is also because of the guidance of many 'companions'." The chief steward looked at everyone and said calmly: "If I guessed correctly, the grass barbarian tribe that mastered such secret techniques has been completely wiped out, so the imperial court will stop investigating. ”

"That's right, sword-bearer."

There was silence in the hall until the empty voice sounded again:

"Three jackdaws."

"The greatest, most powerful, and most intelligent man in the history of the barbarians, his name has as many as twenty-six syllables, which translates to three jackdaws."

"The spiritual warfare method he has researched has found a new way that no one has been able to match so far."

"His name is 'Fellow Citizens.'"

"Its tribe became extinct five hundred and sixty-three years ago, and all records were destroyed."

Many people's hearts are like falling into the abyss, and they are more afraid than meeting ghosts.

for demons may not be able to kill them.

But the sword-bearer ...... Even if they had overestimated the sword-wielder, they didn't expect to underestimate it.

The sword-bearer didn't even make a move, he mingled with them openly, and they couldn't find out, simply because he used a method of warfare that no one had ever heard of—'compatriots'!

How does this work?

The enemy is standing in front of you, and you all regard the enemy as a companion, how can you fight this?

"It's a pity that such an invincible tactic is only used to lurk." The chief manager laughed.

"There are only invincible people, and there is no invincible law. Wu Zhu's spiritual cultivation is as solid as a rock, and he is not invaded by external demons, and the secret method of 'compatriots' is also ineffective against them, and it will even cause vigilance. It's a pity that you don't have a martial pillar here...... At least, not yet."

What does it mean, does the sword bearer think that someone can suddenly explode the advanced martial pillar?

"So, aren't you going to do it yet?" The chief manager said: "With your ability, if you want to kill us, why do you need to hide it like this, wouldn't it be better to do it directly?" ”

Everyone held their breath.

Leyu is even more ready to shout 'I'm undercover'.

「…… You didn't break my rules, and I have no reason to do it."

"Then why are you showing up?" The Grand Steward was undaunted.

"Because I already know who you're behind it, I want you to step back...... I don't want to be his enemy."

What the!?

The sword-bearer who wields the Divine Sword Radiance actually has a trace of fear for the president of the National Salvation Society?

And listening to the tone, the sword bearer probably knows the chairman behind the scenes, Rao is the chairman behind the scenes came to the door, and the sword bearer still chose to back down!

The chief steward refused: "But unfortunately, the president instructed me to reach the top of the Platinum Tower, seize Qin Le Yin, and search for the Holy Sword Radiance." ”

"Let's play a game. Between you and Qin Le Yin."

"If you can complete the mission, I'll send you alive away, along with the corpses."

"If you fail, then no one else wants to leave alive."

"So, the game begins."

Without giving a chance to discuss at all, the sword-wielder directly announced the beginning.

"Game...... the chief manager didn't seem to be surprised, "everyone has heard it, let's go, as long as you can complete the task, you don't have to think about retreating." ”

"But will the sword-bearer keep his promise?" The Brotherhood Dead asked, "I'm afraid he didn't want to tease us, and in the end he stopped it—"

"He will." The chief manager said: "Searching for swords and fighting for positions, academy games, all mean that he can only find fun in this kind of game." And, even if he doesn't, what can we do? ”

"I've never seen such a strong man who binds himself with rules......" muttered the three-gun disciple.

"Because the strong are all human beings, and human beings are naturally unscrupulous for the sake of profit."

The chief steward glanced at them: "But if the president is not wrong, this sword bearer ......"

"I've made myself a god."
