361. State of emergency
Today, there is news that Mine City has completely severed contact with a subsidiary town in the surrounding area.
But the news did not touch Joyna Fez.
It's not that she doesn't care about the place called "Neon Town", it's because of another thing that distracts her.
Just now, she and Long Complaining were in the laboratory of the base, and suddenly saw a vision, and Long Complaining's communicator trembled slightly.
Immediately, in that blurred image, they all saw the image of a huge and ancient palace, and the figure of a few people who were fleeting.
"What's going on, isn't thisβisn't this the temple of 'Ispartine'?" Long Yantian couldn't believe his eyes, and said in astonishment.
When he turned his head to look at Joyna, he also saw shock in the other party's eyes, obviously no less than himself.
"'Ispartine'? Oh my God, who is that woman? Do you see clearly? Joyna's voice trembled slightly, and she asked as she tried to remember what had just happened.
"The man, it seems...... Avenna. β
Long Waitian looked at the communicator on his arm, which had long since ceased to function. He tried to contact Avanna again, but got no response, as if he had blocked it completely.
"Hmm, what does that mean...... How did she get there? β
"I don't know, but I can't be wrong, that feeling is hers."
Joyna was a little confused at the moment.
Because, although it was only for a moment, she also saw several strange figures, and Evenna's body was slumped, like a prisoner being interrogated, and seemed to be very unkind to her.
Ever since she heard her master's voice again that night, Joyna had been in a bit of a trance, and the recent series of events had left her a little exhausted and barely able to sleep at night.
The Ancient Iron City was about to move, and he didn't know what he was doing, and the Obsidian Society had openly attacked here.
Encountering such a strange thing again today shocked her even more.
It's the same with Long Complaining, his spirit has been in a state of tension.
The master said that Mr. Ghost's consciousness was with him, and then he was silent.
All he could do was to continue to instill spiritual power here, give the bird god statue, and don't think about anything else for the time being, it's all up to Joyna to take care of it.
Now that he suddenly saw the figure of Evenna, and it turned out to be in the temple of "Ispartine", how could he not be nervous?
The four people beside Avanna also had an impression of Long Complaining. Connecting with the surrounding images, after a little thought, I realized that those few seemed to be the four supreme Templar Knights of "Ispartine".
In the days before he was subterfugently framed, locked up, and suppressed by Stanley Cook, the House of Elders selected three new Templars from among the Knights.
With the exception of the White Tiger Venerable, the others inherited the name of the original four Templars and continued to take on the responsibility of defending the Temple.
It was as if it had happened yesterday, and the moment he saw those people just now made him trance.
"But...... Didn't they go to investigate the Black Tower a while ago......? Moreover, the 17th was with her, why did you only see her just now? What happened to them? β
Joyna was a little overwhelmed, staring at the dragon and asking questions repeatedly.
Long Yantian frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "It's very simple, with her identity, it is impossible for her to run to the cultivators of the 'Cliff Lake' by herself. Well, my guess, they must have met the people of 'Ispartine' on the way, and for some reason, took her there. β
"Could it be that they were forcibly taken away by those cultivators?"
"Yes, I can't rule it out, but that's just speculation. What do you think? β
"I think your statement makes a lot of sense, it's just ......"
Joyna frowned, thinking about it for a moment, feeling that this was the most reasonable explanation at the moment, "So, why did the people of 'Ispartine' take her?" Could those cultivators really be so powerful that she couldn't get rid of those people with her strength? β
"Hehβdo you think they're ordinary cultivators?"
"What! Could it be that these guys are more powerful? Joyna was stunned.
The dragon was noncommittal, shook his head, a series of memories flashed through his mind, and smiled bitterly, "These four people are the Templars of Ispartine, each of them has their own unique secret method, and their strength is extremely strong, which can be described as rebellious. β
"Wowβyou know them." Joyna exclaimed, there was such a strong cultivator.
Unexpectedly, these people are the legendary "Ispartine" temple guards.
"Heh, this is really difficult to do, and their approach is a little strange. How, what did you think of? Seeing that Joyna's brow hadn't opened yet, Long Yantian asked again.
"I don't know, what that means......"
"Tell me why, then?"
"I'm thinking, Yu Linglong and Lin Wenlai are also the people of the previous 'Ispartine', they are powerhouses at the level of Sky Survey Shadow Guard, they are already so powerful, but they are impressed by their masters. Will these four Legendary Templars be our enemies? I can't imagine what they're capable of and what they're going to do. β
Long Yantian smiled slightly and nodded to her: "After all, Ispartine is an organization that has been in charge of the realm for many years, they are responsible for monitoring this world, they have many secret treasures, and their strength must be strong. But what is really terrifying about these four people is not just their superficial strength. β
"What do you mean......"
"Let me tell you this, the real battle is not a simple comparison of data, you should know it very well. The embodiment of strength is the product of comprehensive consideration, and the basic data provides many aspects such as physical strength, strength, physical fitness, and combat experience. β
Joyna couldn't help but nod her head.
"And then?"
"The result of all the basic data is the embodiment of comprehensive combat capabilities. In order to win in battle, you need more factors, such as perseverance, stamina, luck, that is, the right time, the right place, people, etc., and only when these factors are superimposed, and you can control it without much effort, is the time to really show your strength. β
"I see what you mean, fighting and winning and losing are never a simple data stack. So what are you talking about, what is really scary about them? β
Long Waitian glanced at Joyna with some amusement, and said with a faint smile: "Everyone has their own shortcomings, and those Christmas Knights are the same. But they are not only strong in force, but in the long years of tempering and countless battles, they have polished their shortcomings so that they can't see a single flaw, and when they are together, they will make up for each other's shortcomings, and they are simply flawless! β
Joyna was taken aback, wouldn't this be equivalent to being invincible?
"Oh my God! In this way, it is indeed terrifying! So...... What do you think of the master, what does his ability look like to you? β
Long Yantian was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Joyna to suddenly throw such a question.
He pondered for a long time and said slowly, "Except for that young man...... To be honest, I can't see through him. That power, well, seems to me...... Not at all like the people of this world. β
Joyna agreed, nodding.
The master's strength is unbelievably strong, and there are almost no things he doesn't know, even the dragon complaining about the sky can't be seen through, what is his origin.
"That's right, number 17! Why don't we contact her directly! Joyna suddenly remembered and raised her arm to contact her.
"Don't bother, she didn't wear a communicator at all, the only one was for Avanna." Long Waitian shook his head and stopped her.
"What, didn't she bring it? What to do......"
Long Waitian sighed and stood up, pacing back and forth in the room, stopping in front of the container, muttering in his mouth.
"There's no way, it seems that if this matter is resolved, I can only go to 'Ispartine' in person, I hope my little name can still take care of something."
"You're going to Ispartine?"
Joyna looked puzzled, and said word by word: "What about the return of the master?" He said before that he wants you to recharge this statuette to replenish his lost body and help him get out of trouble! β
"Don't worry, I've felt something in the past few days, and the absorption rate of this little thing is not as good as before. Judging by the fact that the charge is about to be completed, of course, I will do his job before I go. β
The dragon complained and smiled, it seemed to be very relaxed, but his expression quickly fell silent, and he looked much more solemn.
The thought of going to Ispartine made me feel a little emotional.
Joyna sighed softly, not daring to look at his expression.
She knew that Long Yantian's decision was really made out of necessity, and that it was his way of survival. He was the only one present when the owner disappeared that day, and it is still difficult for him to guess what kind of agreement he had with his master.
Now that the enemy is in the present, many things are involuntary and are forced to do.
If, as he said, he was a general of those Jidu people a long time ago, then, in this era, no one can say what kind of bond he has with "Ispartine", and whether he can resolve the contradiction is only known to him.
"I see, just do what you want, but ...... I hope to wait for the return of the master before going. You know, the situation in this place is not optimistic, not long ago we were completely cut off from the outside world by the emperor, and today, another attached town is occupied by him. β
"Of course, there are some things that you don't say, and I know that the return of that young man is necessary, although ...... I still have many questions, but that doesn't stop me from committing to him. Don't worry, I will definitely do what he explains, after all, he is my savior. If it weren't for him, I might still be locked in the darkness of the ground! β
As soon as the dragon's hand turned, a stream of spiritual power was slowly sent into the container, and the bird god statue trembled slightly and returned to calm.
Joyna suddenly heard a jumble, hurried footsteps outside, and looked in the direction of the door.
The door was pushed open, and Sister Monica appeared in the doorway, followed by Su Zhe. Several people looked a little flustered.
Joyna looked at them in surprise and asked, "What's wrong, what happened to make you so flustered?" β
Yi Fang wiped the fine beads of sweat oozing from her head, and with a heavy gasping sound, she glanced at Joyna and said, "Queen, something is wrong!" β
"Huh? What's wrong, tell me quickly! β
"A few hours ago, there were people in the city who set fire everywhere and burned several civilian buildings in the upper city. The guards in the city, believing it to be an emotional mob, immediately sent a team of nearly 100 people to maintain law and order, but when they arrived at the scene, they found ......"
"What did you find?" Joyna's expression changed.
