In the darkness, there was a light of fluorescent light, and suddenly a group of dwarf creatures rushed out of the darkness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThis is a square-like venue in the middle of the street, and the group of gnomes rushed out of several dilapidated buildings, and just arrived in the center of the street, and suddenly the darkness lit up with red, cyan, and blue light. The red light was a fireball, the size of a fist, and the power was average, but it was superior to a large number, and it was densely poured like a shower. The cyan ones were a few light spears, which shone at the strongest of the gnomes and stabbed them in the chest. The blue one is two electric whips, one left and one right, sweeping together, not letting go of a dwarf.

The fireball fell first, blasting the gnomes and screaming, and the firelight also illuminated these creatures who had lived deep underground for many years. Their eyes have deteriorated, and their eyes are as small as mung beans, which are more decorative than practical. They have short limbs, wrinkled skin like newborn babies, and use primitive weapons. Short knives, wooden shields, catapults, and blowguns may seem like little of a threat, but in fact these nimble creatures can often inflict a lot of damage on adventurers. But now, before the gnomes could play to their advantage, they were blown up in a rain of fire, and several of the strongest dwarf warriors pierced their chests with light spears, and the rest were whipped black as charcoal by two electric whips that swept left and right.

After the gnomes were dead, the fire lit up, and a group of men marched into the middle of the field. At the head was a middle-aged swordsman, and behind him were seven or eight warriors with swords and spears, all of whom had a gray storm emblem on their clothing. The middle-aged swordsman gestured, and two men went between the gnomes' corpses and cut off their ears for trophies.

"Captain Lowe, we've cleaned up this neighborhood this time, and we're sure we'll get a nice reward from Lord Elligo when we go back." A warrior with a spear laughed.

The middle-aged swordsman Mu Na, who did not smile, nodded and said, "If there are no accidents, this reward is enough for the expansion of our Grey Storm Mercenary Regiment." ”

"Maybe we can annex one or two small mercenary groups, which would be more conducive to development." A bearded man with a double axe next to him suggested.

"We'll talk about it when we get back."

Two hours later, they returned from the dark dungeon to the brightly lit camp. This is the eleventh floor of the Blood King's Graveyard, and more than a year ago, the Empire opened the eleventh floor to all adventurers and set up a front-line camp to be used as a resting place for adventurers. The fire lion general Erigo stationed in the cemetery even marked the price of the graveyard creatures on the eleventh floor, and as long as the adventurer brought back the corresponding proof of exploits, he would be duly rewarded. For more than a year, Eligo has been very trustworthy in this regard, and as a result, more mercenary groups and adventurers have also poured into the cemetery. Under the exploration of a large number of personnel, the cemetery on this level was almost cleaned. A mercenary group like Greystorm is only a mid-to-low-level group in this graveyard, but the exploits of being able to sweep a block are enough for them to spend on expanding the mercenary group.

Back in the camp's tent of Grey Storm, as soon as he finished sorting out the proof of his exploits, Lowe heard the horn of the assembly sounding outside. He frowned, there were not many times to ask the various mercenary groups and all adventurers to gather like this, and the last time he found a powerful monster in the graveyard, he needed to gather a large number of people to fight collectively. And that was half a year ago, and in this year, there were no more than three gatherings like this.

"What's going on?" The deputy head of the regiment was full of worries: "Did you find a terrible guy again?" ”

Lowe was also in a heavy mood, the last time he gathered a large number of mercenaries and adventurers to fight against that monster, each group suffered unequal battle damage. Gray Storm also sacrificed half of the members at that time, and after half a year of recruitment, it was able to recover. I didn't expect to receive such a collection number again after only half a year.

"Let's go, let's see."

Lowe took his sword and left the camp with the deputy commander. In the square of the camp, a row of soldiers with fire lions separated the square, and only the chief and deputy commanders were allowed to enter the square, and after showing his certificate, Lowe walked into the square with the deputy commander. A high platform was erected in the square, and after all the regimental commanders had arrived, the horn changed again, and after the impassioned trumpet sounded three times in a row, someone walked up to the high platform.

"Lord Eligo?" Lowe said softly, "It looks like there's something important to announce." ”

The last rallying call was only explained by Andy, the deputy general of the Fire Lion, and now that Elligo has stepped up to the high platform by himself, it is obvious that things are not ordinary. In this way, the atmosphere in the square is even more solemn.

After glancing at the crowd in the audience, Eligo said in a deep voice: "It has been more than a year since the opening of this floor of the cemetery, and during this time, due to the outstanding performance of everyone, the square on the eleventh floor is about to be swept away. Originally, at this time, I was supposed to wait for the graveyard to be completely cleared, and I would have come up with more things to reward everyone. But now, it is not possible to do so. Ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is in danger like never before, and we need your strength. ”

Luo Wei and the deputy head of the regiment looked at each other, in fact, before this, he had heard about the reason for the appearance of invaders in the empire, and many mercenary groups had withdrawn from the Blood King's Graveyard in the past two months and turned to other battlefields. However, Eligo never mentioned anything about the invaders, and the mercenaries and adventurers didn't pay much attention to it. But now it is up to Eligo to gather the leaders of all the groups to announce this, and it seems that the empire has reached the time of 100,000 urgent.

Eligo coughed dryly and said, "Don't get me wrong, this crisis in the empire is not from those eastern invaders. The invaders from the Panlong Empire, though powerful, are not enough to leave the empire helpless. This crisis is caused by something else. Until now, we have not found a solution, but in view of the current situation, we are here to convene you, considering that an even greater catastrophe is likely to occur. ”

"Just a week ago, there was a sudden rain of blood in the Empire. The terrible thing is that the people who were drenched in blood rained down on the next day suffered from fever. This is completely different from the ordinary fever disease, which doctors across the country are unable to solve. On the third day, however, all the sick people were changed. They have become monsters, gentlemen, and the number of patients suffering from fever is about forty percent of the total population of the Empire, that is, all of a sudden, we have lost almost forty percent of the population, and there are millions of more monsters! ”

"It's not just us who have suffered heavy losses, it's the same situation on the part of the eastern armies. Now one of the princes of the Panlong Empire has won a great victory over the king, and has proposed a truce agreement to His Majesty in the name of the Panlong Empire. ”
