Chapter 52: The Great Heresy Strikes
The summer training camp ended smoothly, although it was only a short seven days, but everyone had grown to varying degrees. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Especially after completing Zhou Xiaoning's training in climbing trees and treading water, everyone felt that they were more comfortable with the control of divine power or magic power. Bai Tie consumes less when he casts light skills, and his control is more satisfactory, and the black devil also finds that he has a higher chance of success when he casts dark arts, and even a few people break through and can cast the next level of dark arts.
Everyone knew that this was all due to Zhou Xiaoning, and in their opinion, it must have been some kind of secret technique that Zhou Xiaoning handed over to them, otherwise, how could their improvement be so obvious. Therefore, everyone unanimously decided to keep this secret technique, and unless Zhou Xiaoning agreed, they would never spread it.
If Zhou Xiaoning could read their hearts, he would definitely tell them very solemnly that they were really thinking too much, and the little things he taught were rotten things in other worlds, and it was only because they had never appeared in the Holy Sword World that the effect would be so good, and there was really no value in it, and there was no need to keep it secret for him.
In addition to training, leisure time is also indispensable, beach volleyball, courage test, and fireworks are set off together, and everyone has a lot of fun.
In this process, Zhou Xiaoning accidentally discovered that Jing Nai was afraid of ghosts, which was a big development, and he didn't use this to ridicule Jing Nai in the early months, which made Zhou Xiaoning quite a sense of immediacy that a serf turned over and became a master.
However, Jing Nai is not a good talker, and now she is at a disadvantage, but once she recovers, I am afraid that Zayue will have to pay a "miserable" price for today's arrogance.
And just when Zhou Xiaoning and the others were conducting summer training, a meeting was being held at the headquarters of the White Knight Agency in the United Kingdom around whether Zhou Xiaoning was qualified to be promoted to the S rank, and the initiator of this meeting was Edward.
"Now that we're all here, let's get started."
As the host and the initiator of this meeting, Edward naturally took the position of host.
"Regarding Zhou Xiaoning's S-level certification, let's take a stand now."
"No, that's it."
Speaking was the head of the Russian branch, Vasilisa Yuryevna Mostovoya, one of the six S-class saviors in the world, nicknamed "The Thunder Emperor", and the only known dark demon who could use the thirteenth-order forbidden spell.
"The same as the Russian Terrible."
Charlie Saint-Germain, the head of the French branch, followed suit, he is also an S-class dark devil, the strongest savior in France, who can depict dark magic with 10 fingers at the same time, and among the known saviors, none of them can depict dark magic faster than him.
"In the next is in favor, he has enough ability."
Suruga Anton, the head of the island country branch, voted in favor, he is neither white iron nor black devil, although he is only 17 years old, he is already one of the only two SS-class saviors in the world, known as clairvoyance, as long as the heretic appears, no matter where he is, he can detect it, but the more powerful the heretic, the more uncomfortable it will make him.
"So, what do the others think?"
Edward's brows furrowed slightly, counting his vote, it was now a 2-2 draw, so the next two votes were crucial.
"I don't want to go into the argument of your decision at all."
Lu Qixing, the acting head of the Chinese branch, chose to abstain, although he knew that Zhou Xiaoning was Chinese with him, and he did not want to wade into this troubled water.
"Speaking of which, the current information is not enough to determine the strength of that person."
U.S. Secretary Erin Hayberry had reservations, and unlike the other six, she was not physically present, but attended the meeting of the six chiefs remotely via computer via a web chat.
"Don't worry, Zhou Xiaoning is brave enough to be able to solve the nine-headed multi-headed species alone."
"So, what about the evidence?"
Charlie obviously didn't believe Edward's family words very much, he believed in real evidence, and Edward's mouth couldn't convince him.
"Because the nine-headed snake was wiped out by Zhou Xiaoning all at once, there was no time to take a recording video." Suruga Anton explained, after all, it was something that happened in the island country, and he should have been there to explain it.
"Hehehe, this is the so-called self-defeating." Vasilisa scoffed.
Obviously, Vasilisa has already seen this meeting of the Big Six as a joint conspiracy between Edward and Suruga Anton, wanting to push an inexplicable person to the position of S-class savior in order to increase the power in his hands.
"If you don't have evidence, you want to be cheeky and make us agree, don't think of us as fools who are easy to deceive!"
Charlie and Vasilisa thought of going together, and he wouldn't nod his head easily until there was no evidence that could make him irrefutable.
"In that case, I can't agree with it."
Erin was very hesitant, in the case of Lu Qixing's abstention, her vote became a crucial vote, no matter which side she voted for, she would offend the other side, it was completely thankless, if she could, she also wanted to be like Lu Qixing, and directly abstained.
"Wait a minute!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Edward hurriedly stood up and saved: "I know what you said is reasonable, and I also doubted it at the beginning, so I will ...... it myself."
"Uh~!"
Before Edward could announce his test results, Suruga Anton suddenly let out a scream, clutching his chest and leaning back in his chair with a painful expression.
"I didn't expect such a guy to ...... at this time"
Everyone knows that Suruga Anton's ability can make him suffer so much, and it seems that the strength of the heretic who appeared this time is not trivial.
At the same time, Zhou Xiaoning and the others also received an alert from the appearance of heretics.
According to the footage transmitted back from the helicopter close-up, the heretic who appeared this time was a behemoth more than 300 meters in the field, and from the back, it looked like it had four legs and a pair of sarcomas similar to crab claws.
However, if you transduce it positively, you can find that this heretic has six mouths, and because of its large size, it far exceeds the standard of the dreadnought, and it is reformulated with the White Knight mechanism for it, the fortress level.
"Right now, this heretic is off the coast of our country, moving in our direction, and in an hour it is expected that in an hour it will pass through our small island and land on the mainland."
"If you let that big guy go ashore......"
"It's going to be a big tragedy!"
"Backup, when will it arrive?"
"The order given to us by the branch of the island nation is to retreat."
Shi Dongxun knew that this order would surprise everyone, so he explained: "The judgment of the island country branch is that in the absence of the branch minister, it must not rashly launch an attack on the unknown fortress level. ”
Faced with the threat of a fortress-level heretic, Satsuki looked terrified, and her hands kept shaking. In this regard, Zhou Xiaoning had no good way, so she could only hold her hand and tell her that she was by her side, hoping that this would calm her down.
I have to say that this method is quite effective, feeling the temperature from Zhou Xiaoning's hand, Zaoyue's heart, which was still a little frightened, immediately calmed down, she believes that as long as her brother is by her side, then all the dangers will not hurt her.
Seeing that Zaoyue was no longer trembling, Zhou Xiaoning couldn't help but smile with relief, and turned to look at Shi Dongxun and said, "Captain, do you want to follow orders?" ”
"Orders cannot be disobeyed, and as the leader, I must not lead them into battles that have no chance of winning."
Shi Dongxun's voice was a little low, after all, the humiliation of fleeing without a fight is not something that anyone can bear without changing their faces. However, he is responsible for the lives of his teammates, and he can't take his teammates to death because of his will.
"Hey, look at the screen!"
At that time, who exclaimed, everyone turned their eyes to the screen, only to see that the picture above seemed to be disturbed by a strong signal, flickering, and finally the picture disappeared completely. There is only one explanation for this situation, and that is that the helicopter responsible for shooting the images was destroyed.
You must know that the helicopter is a safe distance from the heretic, and even so, it will still be destroyed by the heretic, which shows that the heretic's ability is definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"Everybody sees, that's not something we can deal with, and we have to avoid unnecessary sacrifices. Now, everybody is going back and packing up, and the people of the island have begun to evacuate, and we're withdrawing from the island with them. ”
Shi Dongxun gave the final order, but everyone seemed to be a little hesitant, after all, the duty of the savior is to eliminate the heretics, if they evacuate at this time, what is the difference between them and deserters.
At this moment, Zhou Xiaoning suddenly stood up and said, "Captain Shi Dong, you lead everyone to retreat, I will stay to stop that heretic." ”
"Hey, Zhou, what are you kidding, I know you're very powerful, but that heretic may not be able to solve it easily even if he is an S-class savior, what can you do!"
Shi Dongxun's face was eager, Zhou Xiaoning had great potential, and it was only a matter of time before he became an S-level savior, he didn't want to see a genius savior die halfway before he grew up.
"Captain Shi Dong, don't persuade me, if no one stops it and lets him land, you won't be able to imagine what kind of damage it will cause. I don't know what the reason is, and I haven't rushed over at this time, so I can only rely on myself. ”
"So, what are you going to do?"
Shi Dongxun knew that what Zhou Xiaoning said was right, but he was still a little wavering, he wanted to know Zhou Xiaoning's battle plan, if it was not feasible, even if it was tied, he would tie Zhou Xiaoning back.
"I'm going to take the initiative, right here!"
Since the heretic footage is no longer filmed, the big screen switches to map mode, and a red aperture is moving in the direction of the island. The red circle of light represents the fortress-level heretic, and the location that Zhou Xiaoning refers to is the location between the heretic and the island, where there is a piece of blue, representing the sea.
