Chapter 275: Something Fell from the Sky

"Holy Capital?"

According to Lu Xiao, the information he obtained came from the group of refugees he had rescued before, and the most mentioned word among the refugees was the holy capital located in the eastern part of the desert.

Romani asked thoughtfully, "Is it the holy city of Jerusalem?" ”

"No, at least not yet."

Lu Xiao explained: "The group of refugees who called themselves the people of the mountains mentioned that the holy city of Jerusalem no longer exists, and the crusaders led by King Lionheart 'Richard' were also defeated by the knights from the Holy Capital. ”

"King Lionheart?!"

Far away in the Chaldees, the Roman man said: "How is it possible! ”

"Richard the Lionheart was the king of England during the Third Crusade, and your era is the last, the Fifth Crusade, and it is impossible for the Lionheart to be alive!"

"Calm down, Romani Akiman."

Lu Xiao continued to explain indifferently: "I didn't say that King Lionheart is alive, in-depth analysis of the information provided by the refugees, I think this 'Richard' is most likely an impostor false heroic spirit, a pawn sent by the magic king Solomon to disturb people's reason in this era." ”

"Ha~ My stomach is starting to hurt."

After Lu Xiao's detailed explanation, Romani rubbed his stomach with his hands.

"In other words, the Magic King's pawn was killed by another 'Lion King' before it could be used, and the so-called Holy Capital was built on the ruins of Jerusalem?"

"That's about it."

Lu Xiao squatted down and drew a triangle on the ground: "This era has nothing to do with the Chaldean Crusades, and now the whole world can be roughly divided into three forces. ”

"One is Egypt entrenched in the desert, commanded by the pharaoh Ramses II, with the Egyptian magic queen Nitokris and a large number of god-like stone statues of the Sphinx."

"The second is to disperse the local indigenous people living in seclusion in the northern part of the desert, led by the Assasin Order, which is the force behind the group of refugees I met earlier."

"Finally, there is the Lion King, who occupied the ruins of Jesus Salem and built a city, and it is not known for the time being, but it is known that the Lion King has several brave knights under him, and these knights are likely to be heroic spirits."

"Three-legged ......"

Da Vinci touched his chin thoughtfully: "It is also said that if we want to find out the details of the peculiarity, it is best to have a good relationship with one of the three major forces?" ”

Fujimaru scratched his hair with a little headache: "Choose one of the three, it doesn't seem to be very friendly on either side." ”

Lu Xiao proposed at this time: "I have a suggestion. ”

"I had some connections with the Assasin Order before I became a Hero, so let's split up for the time being for the sake of efficiency."

"It's up to me to go to the mountainous regions of the northern desert to make contact with the mountain people, and you try to visit the nearby lord of the desert, the Pharaoh, to get information."

"A week later is the monthly Holy Extraction Ceremony in the Holy Capital, and we will meet at the gates of the Holy Capital at that time."

"Hmmm......"

Da Vinci hesitated for a moment: "Although dispersing troops will lead to a decrease in combat power, in order to obtain more information related to the anomaly, this can only be done for the time being." ”

……

The Atlas Courtyard is located right between the center of the mountains and the desert, and Lu Xiao and the Chaldean trio are moving in completely opposite directions.

Confirming that Leonardo da Vinci's all-terrain vehicle went away, Lu Xiao used the yellow sand and air to refine a big earthy yellow bird.

Jumping on the back of the puppet bird, the big bird that was not endowed with wisdom immediately spread its wings and took off under Lu Xiao's control.

Looking at the extreme west of the desert with clairvoyance, Lu Xiao could clearly see the boundary of this world, and the strange scene like a spatial fault made Lu Xiao's face a little solemn.

"Sure enough, the Holy Spear has begun to be restricted, and we must hurry."

Since the arrival of the Lion King, the land where the sixth anomaly is located has been stripped from the normal world, and Lu Xiao, who has A-level clairvoyance, can easily see the edge of the world that should not be.

Detached from the world, the land enters a state of chronic death.

Except for a few oases in the desert sheltered by Ramses II, there is hardly any greenery in the whole world.

Even outside the desert area, it is difficult to find trees in the barren mountainous area, and there are bare rocks everywhere, and from time to time you can see some strange traces like meteorite sinkholes.

Traces of villages can be seen near each sinkhole, which appear to have been created by human beings specifically to fight the mountain people.

"Although it is called the three-legged tripod, in fact, the strength of the people of the mountain is far lower than that of the other two, and it is a miracle that they have survived until now."

After all, the Assasin Order is just a group of assassins, and in the Moon World, where legendary deeds are sublimated by treasures, it is difficult for the Assasin Order, which has always been good at hiding itself, to get enough legendary deeds.

The reaction is also reflected in the Fuyuki Holy Grail, the Assassin has always been regarded as a fish belly by other masters, and most of the masters want the three knights with the strongest comprehensive ability, Saber, Lancer, and Archer.

Even if the Lion King and the Pharaoh themselves did not intervene, they each had their own powerful subordinates.

Although Nitokris may not seem very reliable, she is also the famous magic queen of ancient Egypt, and with the help of the god-like stone statue puppet Sphinx and the extreme climate, even the powerful Knights of the Round Table are not willing to enter the desert at will.

In contrast to the two, the Assasin Order had to rise out of the darkness in order to protect its people.

Forced to abandon their best secret assassinations and face to face with the Knights of the Round Table and the Sphinx, they will fall for granted.

In order to prevent the remaining villages from being found by the Knights of the Round Table, the Mountain People are very well hidden, and most of their newly built villages are located on the back of the mountain.

The mountainous terrain with complex terrain happened to be an area of battle that the knights were not good at, and they would not rush into the mountains to search without the Lion King's order, so as not to be ambushed by the mountain people led by Hassan.

"Found it."

After a day of searching in the barren mountains, Lu Xiao finally found a small mountain village on the back of a very hidden mountain col.

"Whew! Shout! ”

When Lu Xiao commanded the puppet bird to descend to the height, a dense shrill whistle suddenly came from inside the village.

A large number of locals armed with bows and arrows climbed onto the rooftops and bent their bows and arrows at Lu Xiao, who was slowly falling.

A dozen black-cloaked assassins mingled among the archers, one of whom was a sturdy woman with a skull mask on her face raising her right hand.

"Archer prepare!"

"Shoot!"

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”

A dense rain of arrows struck the big bird in the air, and soon the puppet bird was pierced into a hedgehog in the belly.

"Close!"

Lu Xiao jumped out from the big bird's back, dismantled the big bird's structure, rerefined the materials that composed it, and turned it into a thick sand shield in front of him.

"Boom!"

The arrows shot by ordinary mountain people could not break through the defense of the sand shield, and Lu Xiao fell straight from a height of tens of meters, relying on the skill of the leap of faith to fall steadily to the ground.

The massive object hit the ground, stirring up a large cloud of dust in the village, like a smoke bomb, temporarily covering up the location where Lu Xiao landed.

The village was guarded by Baekchan Hassan, the village of the west, and with the archers on the roof, Baekchan Hassan sent a dozen doppelgangers into the smoke, but these clones lost contact with the main body in a short time.

Bai Xiang stared solemnly at the gradually dissipating smoke, hesitating whether to light a beacon fire and ask for support from other villages.

Once lit, the beacon fire would reveal the exact location of Nishinomura, and the guerrillas of the Knights of the Round Table had been wandering the wilderness of the eastern mountains, and if they discovered Nishinomura, the consequences would be dire.

"Tsk! Wait, you can't gamble with the safety of hundreds of people in the village. ”

After the rising dust completely cleared, Bai Xiang, who was ready to fight, unexpectedly found that the other party did not put on a fighting posture, and her doppelganger seemed to be knocked unconscious.

Lu Xiao stood in place and stretched out his hands, indicating that he had no malicious intent: "This Miss Hassan, I have no intention of attacking your village. ”

"On behalf of the people, I will continue to protect the Chaldeans, hoping to establish friendly relations with the mountain people who are protected by the Assassin Order."
