Chapter 828: Coming Soon
Mobile reading
In the Southern Li Kingdom, a large-scale beast tide has not yet arrived, but all the people have already assembled and are ready for battle.
The route of the beast tide can be predicted by now, and the city of Nanli is on this route.
There are also two large cities along the route, as well as small and large towns. Just in case, the defenseless places have already evacuated the people and concentrated them in other places. Those places are now all manned, quietly waiting for the impending disaster.
On the flying boat in the air, the demon high priest stood at the edge, looking down, and the trace of the beast tide could be faintly seen in the distance. He sighed under his breath and said, "The prophesied day has indeed arrived, but this crisis will definitely be overcome." He said, his hand tapping lightly on the aura cannon beside him.
When he learned the rumor that the beast tide was coming, he actually knew the inside story, because Jun Tingge had sent him back a message, and he also chose to believe it. So from that time on, he began to prepare, not only within the demon race, but also other forces.
Standing next to him now is a prince of the Nanli royal family, as well as Yue Mingluo, the holy son of the Temple of Light. In addition, there are other families and the heads of the forces, scattered on this and other flying ships, who are checking the situation this time.
"High Priestess, a tough battle is coming, I wonder what you think?" Yue Mingluo quietly appeared beside the high priest, and then asked.
His face was flat, his thin lips were slightly pursed, and he seemed to have something on his mind.
Hearing this, the high priest stretched out his hand and straightened his beard, then looked at him: "This time it is just in accordance with the destiny of heaven, but the calamity will eventually pass, and we can also save ourselves." ”
"......," he was silent for a moment, then spoke again, "I hope so, but with these aura weapons, I think it's a great hope." ”
The High Priest smiled, "That's right. When he learned the news from Jun Qinge, although he had a feeling in his heart that the prophecy was about to come true, he was also worried. Although he believed in the prophecy, he was also worried about how he would survive this catastrophe.
Later, the appearance of the aura weapon, as well as various other news, dispelled this worry. The actions of the Holy Maiden of the clan during this period of time made him realize why she became the person mentioned in the prophecy, what she did was unprecedented, and he didn't know if there would be a successor. Blessed with luck and talent, he doesn't seem to have to worry too much.
Looking at the time, she is also coming back soon.
"It's just ......" However, Yue Mingluo still seemed to be worried about something, he held a staff in his hand, his knuckles were a little white, and his lips were tightly pursed.
"What is there to worry about the Son? Now is a critical period, if you can, you might as well talk to the old man. The high priest saw this, and said slowly.
"I'm a little worried." Yue Mingluo closed his eyes and spoke, as if he had made up his mind, "Recently, in the temple, something is not right. ”
The high priest frowned directly when he heard this, he could make the Holy Son say that something was not right, it seemed that something really bad had happened, and now this period is extremely critical, and it is related to the life and death of many people.
If something happens at this juncture, the consequences may be unimaginable.
"What's wrong?" He asked directly.
Yue Mingluo glanced at the high priest, as if thinking about something, and finally said: "I have hesitated to tell others about this matter, and the high priest is a member of the demon race, so in fact, I shouldn't tell you about it." It's just ......," he paused, "since she is your Demon Saintess, maybe I should trust you a little more, after all, I know the ability of the High Priest." ”
The high priest originally had some doubts in his heart, but Yue Mingluo, as the holy son of the Temple of Light, suddenly said this to himself, which was a little strange. However, this is a critical period, and they have joined forces, so it is not impossible to explain. But only now did he know the real reason, but the reason was obviously more plausible.
"Hall Master, recently, the Hall Master has acted differently than before, he is secretly planning something, I have the heart to investigate, but I found something that surprised me very much." Yue Mingluo said slowly, his eyes lowered, but he looked a little cold.
After all, he didn't expect that the person he was talking about would be the Lord of the Temple of Light, this is the person with the highest status in the Temple of Light, who has never appeared in front of people very often, and now when this disaster is about to come, what did he plan? And this plan can actually make the Holy Son of the Temple of Light show such a look.
The high priest's eyes moved slightly, and then he said slowly, "I guess what I found is very unusual. ”
Yue Mingluo nodded: "The hall master has been in retreat before, and I am presiding over many matters, but I am just ......" he curled the corner of his lips, "I found that many things are not what I think, his retreat is not really a retreat, but there are many things that are inconvenient for me to see." By chance I found out, and then it seemed like I should do something about it. His voice was a little cold, as if he was holding back his anger at what he had discovered.
Although the high priest didn't know what the specific matter was, looking at his performance, he also understood that the so-called hidden secret must be an earth-shattering event, otherwise it would not be possible to let this always gentle son show such an expression.
"Then, why did the Holy Son choose to tell me about this?" The High Priest turned his head and asked directly.
Yue Mingluo's expression became much more serious, and he replied: "Because it is difficult for me to do it with my own strength alone, I need help." He didn't hesitate to say what he meant.
Help? The High Priest's eyes narrowed slightly, it seemed that this Holy Son was secretly planning some big event, most likely to confront the Lord of the Temple of Light, although he didn't know what kind of thing could make him make such a decision, but obviously he had made up his mind.
"This is an internal matter of the Temple of Light, and it may be inconvenient for outsiders to interfere." He didn't say yes, but spoke.
For his answer, Yue Mingluo didn't feel strange.
"If there is a cooperation, it will all be done in secret, and there is no need to worry about being implicated." Yue Mingluo's hand was raised, and then he clenched it into a fist gently, "And since I want to do it, it will definitely succeed in the end, so there is no need to worry about the follow-up." ”
After hearing this, the high priest hooked his lips and smiled: "This doesn't seem to be the place to talk, maybe we can get together for a while." ”
Seeing the look on Yue Mingluo's face, he felt that there was something to be done this time, but now was obviously not the time to discuss this kind of thing.
After Yue Mingluo heard his answer, a smile reappeared on his face: "This is natural, I will contact you after this inspection is over." By the way, I heard that the saint is coming back soon. ”
The high priest nodded slowly: "That's right, at this critical moment, it is time for her to return." This news was not something that needed to be kept absolutely secret, so he answered directly.
"This time, I hope that the saint can also participate, with her, it will definitely succeed." A sincere smile finally appeared on his face.
The high priest didn't answer directly, but just smiled, "I'll mention it to her when she returns." ”
"This beast tide is menacing, and I hope that the preparations we make can withstand it." Suddenly, a voice interjected, with deep concern.
The high priest and Yue Mingluo stopped talking in unison, and then restrained the expression on their faces, and turned around to see the prince who followed this time, looking at the marginal beast tide that could be seen faintly in the distance, and showed a worried expression.
The two of them nodded, "Your Highness." ”
The prince stepped aside and turned his head to look at the two of them: "I don't know, do the high priest and the holy son have confidence in this war?" Although these new magic weapons have been experimented, after all, the beast tide is menacing, and the worries in my heart have always been difficult to let go. Is there anything else we haven't prepared? Is it possible to find more Venerable Beings to sit in charge? ”
"Your Highness can rest assured of the power of the weapon, isn't there already news coming? The results have been proven and have helped us a lot. Yue Mingluo said.
The high priest then said: "Your Highness may not know that this weapon came from the hands of the Holy Maiden of my clan, and the specific effect has also been verified, so don't worry too much, we are fully prepared, and the only thing we can do now is to wait." ”
Hearing his words, the prince was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly spoke: "It turned out to be from the hand of the Holy Maiden." Although he knew that this weapon was from a woman, he thought it was a woman from Xifeng, and he didn't think much about it after hearing the name, after all, the name of the demon saintess at that time was not revealed.
However, after learning the news, he couldn't help but relax a little.
To be able to create such a ruthless existence, it turned out to be the people of Nanli! Then the safety of Nanli is even more guaranteed! His strength is not too high in the royal family, and he has never gone out to train alone, and he was sent out this time because the royal family is in a hurry.
There are not many people in the Nanli royal family, and there are all kinds of things to do, so this time it is his turn to inspect. When he saw the beast tide with his own eyes, although he only saw it vaguely, it was enough to make him frightened.
And at this time, he suddenly heard such news, which was simply a good news for him! With such a Venerable in charge, then not to mention the rest, at least personal safety can be guaranteed!
He had already made up his mind that he must seize this opportunity and have a good relationship with that Venerable One.
He immediately spoke: "Since it is from the hand of the Holy Maiden, and now that the situation is urgent, why don't the High Priest send a message to let the Holy Maiden return." With her here, it will be safer! And if something goes wrong with these magic weapons, it's good to solve it immediately. He looked at the high priest with an earnest face, and the emotions he expressed were very urgent.
"The Holy Maiden will soon return." The high priest answered.
The prince's eyes lit up: "Great! I will definitely go to meet the Holy Maiden when she returns! ”
The High Priest continued: "This is not necessary, it is an extraordinary time at present, and the beast tide is coming, so the form will be waived. ”
But he didn't give up: "The saint doesn't know how much she has contributed to this crisis!" It must not be taken lightly, in short, I will go back to prepare for this matter first, and when the holy woman returns, please be sure to inform me. ”
The high priest only smiled and did not continue to speak.
Yue Mingluo stood aside and said, "Your Highness, how is the royal family's manpower arrangement?" Can the newly issued weapons be proficient? ”
Hearing his question, Huang Huangzi nodded and said, "The death order has been given, so that they must be skilled, and the manpower has been dispatched." But I don't know much about the specifics, this matter is the eldest brother in charge. ”
"Understood, the situation of this inspection, presumably His Highness has also seen it, please report to Your Majesty after you go back, there is not much time left for us, please be prepared." Yue Mingluo continued.
"I will." The Holy Son did not dare not be serious about his words. These two people, one is the Holy Son of the Temple of Light, and the other is the High Priest of the Demon Race. With their own realm and status, none of them can be despised by him. In fact, in Nanli, the Temple of Light has a greater voice than the royal family, although the demon clan does not communicate much with the outside world, but it has always had a lot of strength, and it is very mysterious, and now there is such a holy woman, you can imagine the power they have.
He himself is just a small prince, and he can't stand up to any stakes in front of these two people, but his own cognition is very clear, so his attitude is natural.
Just when the high priest and Yue Mingluo had just finished their inspection, Jun Qinge, Mo Beichen and Yuan Xi had already arrived at the Nanli border.
"There is no trace of the beast tide from here, but the news is that a large number of mutated demonic beasts have been gathered on the other side, and they may break out at any time." Jun Qingge frowned slightly, and said with a little worry, "The number here is much more than Jin Han's. ”
"But I see that the people here are empty, so I should have made preparations to evacuate them." Yuan Xi said on the side.
Jun Qingge and Mo Beichen also noticed this, in the nearby mountains and places where there are more demonic beasts, whether it is a small city or a town, the people have almost gone, including the resources inside, almost all of them have been taken away, and those who can't be taken away have also been temporarily protected by formations or other methods.
Of course, in the end, whether you can withstand those destruction depends on luck. If you're lucky, maybe the beast tide won't pass here.
"I don't know where they are now." Jun Qingge took out the messenger and spoke, she used a messenger to contact the high priest, and then immediately became aware of the other party's location, "In the national capital, let's go." ”
