Section 986 Keeping the Fortress

Sneefa asked a series of questions, but he was not answered immediately, because—

The night dispersed at this moment.

Before, they had noticed that the night was slowly diluting, and as they got farther and farther away from the cemetery, Doge Bill took a casual step that spanned day and night.

Now the sky is bright, and the night is completely gone.

When I turned back, I could no longer see a resting place behind me, but I saw the vast and lonely Dead Sea.

"Left?"

"Left!"

After confirming that they had left their resting place, everyone present, especially the apprentices in the Frost Chapel, breathed a sigh of relief. The cemetery that filled the night was like a nightmare for them, and now, they finally woke up.

"Don't be happy too soon, the danger out there may be higher than the resting place. Sanderston paused: "You said before that there is no life on the Lonely Shore. It wasn't because of the resting place, but because a demon had crawled out of the inner layers and went to the monastery. ”

"Now, the resting place is in the world, and the devil is bound to go. So, get ready for battle. ”

After Sanders finished speaking, he saw that at the end of the vast mountain road, a group of strange-shaped monsters suddenly rose into the sky-

As Sanders said, the outside is more dangerous than the resting place.

This battle lasted two hours. The final result was the appearance of a winter troll with a body of more than ten meters, and it was the same demon who had gone to the Demon Convent in the first place.

This troll is extremely powerful, almost on the same level as Seneph before he was cursed.

Thankfully, Saunders came. The trolls were sure that they couldn't beat Sanders, and even if they had to annihilate the others, it would take a long time. It didn't want to delay its journey to the resting place, so it finally ordered them to be let go.

In the end, although there were no dead in the battle, three of the apprentices' hands and feet were either broken or lost. A wizard is also scarred.

The damage was really worse than their resting place.

"So, do you think that the Greatsword Knight fought you before, using all his might?" Sanders looked at Xnefer and said lightly: "His strength has always been maintained at the strongest stage you can achieve, he is impartial, and he has not attacked others when he is fighting you." It's not that he doesn't dare, it's that he doesn't want to. ”

The Knight of the Greatsword Knight, the supreme general of the Undead Brigade, had already made a decision when he learned that Xnefer was not lying, and that he was in alliance with the descendants of the Undead Brigade.

The reason why I still fight with Snefa, you and me, is just because of the relationship with Balalaika.

At the beginning, he brought the remains of the undead brigade to the resting place to find Balalaika, and on the condition of protecting the resting place forever, the undead brigade became a real "undead" brigade.

Balalaika hates humans, and naturally he does not dare to disobey. However, his original intention was to delay time, and then wait for Balalaika to get bored and expel Snefer and the others from their resting place.

Unexpectedly, Sanders came at that time and made a deal with Balalaika.

Sanders: "You're not asking why Balalaika's attitude has changed? Because she's a businessman herself, and she's doing business for the sake of profit, and it's her job to open a shop and do business." ”

"You were the first guests after the reopening of the resting place, but you were not profitable, and you were the humans she hated, and the result was what you saw. ”

However, Balalaika also obeyed the rules of the resting place, and did not do it herself, otherwise Sneefa would not have waited for him to arrive, and would have turned into a new corpse in the cemetery.

Sanders goes to the resting place, revealing that he is from the same group as Xnefer, trading with Balalaika. After the deal, Balalaika's attitude naturally changed.

After another half a day, they left the lonely shore without any problems.

On the rest of the journey, although there are occasional monsters blocking the way, and even demons appear. But with Sanders, all difficulties are solved.

Finally, two days later, they reached the Howling Plains, where they could already see the borderline forest at the end of the horizon.

During these two days, Sanders also gradually told some secrets about the resting place and balalaika.

For example, Balalaika, also known as the Witch of Resurrection, is herself a native of the Abyss, and due to fate, she has become an existence that is not inferior to the Great Demon.

For some reason, she came to the resting place to revive a soul.

Because of the importance of that soul to her, Balalaika did not dare to leave the resting place for a moment, but it would take a lot of soul sand to revive the soul, so Balalaika opened a bar in the resting place that was specially used for trading.

Since she started her business, Balalaika has set a series of rules for herself, such as that she will not kill people in her resting place.

However, because of this rule, there were some problems later, and it is said that this problem was made up by a human being, so she was extremely disgusted with humans. Later, the Undead Brigade happened to find it, and they turned the Undead Brigade into a guard to protect the bar, and then continued to this day......

......

On the outskirts of the Critical Forest, outside the Watch Fortress, a large number of apprentices are busy with the task of frontline construction.

All kinds of defensive measures rose up in their tricks.

If a mortal were to come here, it would never be possible to imagine that such a huge steel fortress was actually built in only half a year, and it continued to expand......

In the corner of the doorway of the fortress, there was a vague shadow, and it was impossible to see what was inside, but it was possible to perceive the obvious illusionary fluctuations in the shadows.

"Ahh

"What's wrong?" asked a braided kid who looked like a masata, confused.

Humpty Dumpty pointed to the shadows, "Wow." ”

"Oh, you mean Lord Ruye?" The pigtailed child looked over, and his eyes flashed with admiration: "Lord Ruye is smart and knows the true meaning of overseer! If you directly use the naked eye to supervise the work, it is difficult to ensure that there are lazy people in the blind corner." But if you cast a shadow around you, others won't know where Lord Ruye is looking, so they won't dare to be lazy, and they will save their magic power. ”

After the pigtailed child finished speaking, he said quite proudly, "I'm right, right? You're also worried that the Lord is watching us?"

The pudgy apprentice looked at the pigtailed child with the eyes of a fool, "I think you might need to check your head." With that, Humpty Dumpty glanced at the large number of lazy apprentices around him, and said, "And your eyesight." ”

In the puzzled eyes of the pigtailed child, the short and fat apprentice patted the white-robed young man standing on the other side of him: "Bobota, you explain it to him, I think if I say a word to him more, I feel that my IQ is constantly dropping." ”

Bobota shrugged his shoulders and touched the pigtail on the back of the child's head with a gentle look: "Actually, when the night is overlooked, it is a time when all of us can be lazy...... Because, he didn't pay attention to us at all. ”

The pigtailed kid looked shocked: "So, what is he doing now?"

"I seem to have heard people talk about it, and Lord Ruya seems to be ...... Playing games?" said Humpty Dumpty's apprentice.

"Play a game?" the pigtailed kid apparently didn't understand the meaning of the word.

Humpty Dumpty pointed at Bobota, "I don't know anyway, but I remember that the last time Lord Ruye got stuck, I called Bobota over to solve it." ”

Bobota nodded, "That's right, Lord Ruye is playing a fantasy game, according to him, it's called Monument Valley." ”

"Mirage Games, Monument Valley, what the hell is this?"

Bobota looked at the gate of the fortress with an aftertaste in his eyes, and said, "It's a very interesting game." ”

Humpty Dumpty Apprentice and the Braided Kid were curious, don't look at Humpty Dumpty Apprentice knew what Lord Ruye was doing, but he never knew what the game was about. Now, the "player" Bobota rarely revealed something, and quickly hit the snake with the stick and asked.

"This game is actually a little girl named Ada......" Bobota was halfway through when he paused.

"What's wrong with Ada?" asked the pigtailed kid, confused.

Bobota didn't speak, pointing to the borderline forest in the distance: "It's coming." ”

Everyone looked over, but saw that in the critical forest, a huge white bear like a snow-capped mountain was walking in the direction of the fortress step by step.

There is not a single apprentice here who does not know the white bear. When they came to the Overwatch Fortress, they were also carried by the white bear.

"Doki Bill?!"

Almost instantly, news of Doge Bill's arrival spread throughout the fortress. The appearance of Doge Bir means that there is a new "hard labor" coming, and it also means that more people will share their work, so that they can be a little easier.

So, when they saw Doge Bill, all the apprentices were happy.

The Humpty Dumpty Apprentice looked at the apprentices who rushed to the gate of the fortress and said to Bobota, "Let's go too, if we can be appointed as the guide instructor for the new apprentice, it will be much easier these days." ”

As Instructors, they instruct new apprentices to adapt to the pace of life in the fortress and assign them the scope of their work. This kind of thing is not too easy for them who work hard every day to build!

Bobota was a little reluctant to go, or rather, he didn't want to meet the wizards of the Frost Moon.

However, Humpty Dumpty didn't think much about it at all, grabbed Bobota with one hand, and grabbed the pigtailed child with the other, and ran towards the door of the fortress without saying a word.

The movement at the gate of the fortress finally alarmed Kanter, who was addicted to the game.

"What's the noise, don't you see me studying?!" Kanter angrily exited the illusion, he finally took advantage of Sanders to leave, and quietly went to his room to "borrow" the Strange Ring Monument, which was supposed to be cleared today, but it was stuck again just now.

Forget the card, there is a noisy sound outside, these little cubs really don't know that you are lazy in ordinary times?

I was considerate of you before, and I just turned a blind eye, but now I dare to come and argue with me to "study"!

Kante exits the illusion and decides to teach the cubs a memorable lesson, stopping by and going to Popota to give him some pointers.

Yes, it's just by the way.
