Many times, when watching others do something, they will feel that it is easy, and even go further and think that if you do it yourself, you can definitely do it better than the other person...... This is actually a life illusion.

Any existence that can be called work must be filled with a corresponding kernel.

When the eldest prince Lokov saw his iron-fisted mother in power, he felt that the other party was old and dull and bold, and could not even understand how the other party won the political prestige of the "iron-fisted lady" in her youth.

However, when the old man, who was difficult to judge right and wrong in life, suddenly died on his throne in the process of dealing with government affairs.

When Lokov, who took over in a hurry, actually succeeded to the throne, he gradually understood what kind of accumulation and hardship he was facing.

The entire devastated Duchy of St. Rudin, like a scrapped car running wildly on the highway, as its new owner, what Lokov needs to do most at present is not to control it, but to stabilize it, overtaking in corners, big drifts and other unconventional technical actions cannot be done, forcibly trying, the only result is to make the whole country fall into a situation of fragmentation in an instant:

It wasn't until he actually got his hands on it that Lokov realized how far apart there was between being a prince and being a king. I knew what kind of political prestige and skill it would take to calm the situation like my mother, but he didn't have the opportunity to learn anymore.

The entire Duchy of St. Rudin slipped into the abyss in the "novice tuition" paid by Lokov, like a strong wind, blowing the country that was already struggling to move forward on a tightrope out of balance.

And the National Royal Knights, or Zhu Peng's side, are a little too busy to take care of themselves, because the latest order from the academy management has finally been issued: it is indeed an order to participate in the battle on the spot!

Even according to the different ranks of wizards, a wartime killing quota was issued for the "Zermen" in the different planes, how many Zergs should be killed every year, and what rank of Zerg should be killed, and if they can't do it, they will have to pay huge fines, and even kill more, and there will be corresponding wartime reward quotas.

When facing the bottom line of this government decree, Zhu Peng took a big advantage, because his wizard rank was the peak of the strong second order, and he only needed to reach the killing quota of the strong second-order wizard, and he did not need to reach the killing quota of the legendary wizard...... You know, the gap between the two is sky-high.

"Ahhhh

Not only her, but many hired wizards and wizard apprentices in the headquarters were staring at the crystal ball in front of them like earthlings looking at computers, and their cheeks were brightened by the light that flashed from within.

There are many legendary archwizards who prefer to use arcane sigils, but in terms of practicality, the crystal ball is more powerful.

The two are like the difference between a smartphone and a desktop computer.

Import the name into the crystal ball, and the crystal ball will naturally export the kill quota of the corresponding character, which is somewhat different for each person, but it is basically divided according to the rank level:

A first-order wizard wants to kill about ten first-order zergs, and those below this number will be punished, and those who are five times higher than this amount will be rewarded accordingly, and the low-level rewards are not enough, the meaning itself is not big, and the higher the reward, the more valuable it is.

If you perform well in this civilization war, you can even get three types of war medals: killing, protecting, and honoring...... Of course, limited by the civilization level of the Zerg, this war is only open to third-class medals.

In fact, for the wizard civilization, the inter-plane wars below the fifth order in the heavens are not qualified to be called civilization wars, because their existence itself does not even have the possibility of threatening the wizard civilization, only the result of being conquered, dominated, and enslaved.

And the pre-competition of the "Spy Shadow" for the trainees originally scheduled to be held within Blackcastle Academy has also been directly set up as a battlefield actual combat assessment, and the top 20 who have performed the best in this war will have the wizard authority to directly apply for the spy assessment.

Therefore, many truly strong people will not focus on the minimum kill quota and low-level rewards at all, and all they will see is the qualification of the War Medal and the Spy Battle.

Of course, for ordinary low-level wizards, the kill quota is actually very deadly, which means that they can no longer blindly avoid the battle and hide in the safety of the rear, otherwise just paying a huge fine is enough to punish most of them to ruin.

......... The three types of war medals of killing, guarding, and honor, which are themselves a special witchcraft artifact of the Tongtian Witch Tower, can be compatible with any enchanted equipment, provide attack, defense, mana amplification, and other effects, and have these three types of war medals, that is, belong to the privileged class of the wizarding world, because the power and benefits brought by it often accompany the wizard's life;

The competition for the number of spy wizards is more fierce than the competition for war medals, and it is much easier to become a spy wizard to get a war medal, for them, simply exploring a world rich in resources is a great achievement in itself, if they sneak into it and make many meritorious deeds, a heterotopic invasion war is fought, and it is difficult not to hang a few war medals on their bodies, of course, the war death rate is also very high, and the spy shadow wizards are basically all targets to participate in dimensional wars.........

As Lokov took office, the situation in the country became more and more difficult.

It may be very unfair for him personally, he is very, very hard, but the situation of the whole country or the whole continent is still on the verge of total destruction. Emperor Chongzhen is also working hard, but with his talent and ability, he can't pull back the exhausted Ming Dynasty.

Lokov is now facing a similar, if even worse, situation.

On the frontline battlefield, the three demon tribes in the west actually joined forces with the Zerg of foreign civilizations, and they took turns to attack and cooperate tacitly, and gradually collapsed the coalition forces of the eastern powers, and even in the process, the Zerg launched a strong saturation strike combining outer space bombardment and airborne invasion to Revere:

Beyond the sky, ice-blue meteors fell from the sky, and a large number of insects and beasts suddenly poured out on the ground.

However, because of the existence of the elite troops of the Gongwei Royal Capital and the five legendary great wizards, this time the strong saturation strike combination punch was blocked by force, and the Zerg Clan sent a powerful caster of the legendary level, Zhu Peng saw that it was the wind system, and chased and killed the opponent for more than a thousand miles, and after experimental testing, he actually found that it could be integrated into the "Dark Soul".

This Zerg spellcaster's spiritual power level is actually better than that of the Langsom brothers, but as a foreign native, he has no natural defense force field, and he does not have enough spell reserves, although his ability is weird and wonderful, but after being adapted by Zhu Peng, he will inevitably die.

Because he is not a wizard, his soul quality is slightly lower, but he is also a humanoid lifeform, so he can also devote himself to legendary black sorcery and dissolve his soul to complete the spiritual power transformation ritual...... At this point, the basic conditions for Zhu Peng's promotion to the legendary third-order great wizard have been completed, and it is just a very important and crucial introduction that is missing.

"Lin Qian, activate your abilities. ”

In the front-line military headquarters thousands of miles away from Revere, the Autumn Moon Sisters, the "Mad Blood Mage" Turin, and the "Poisonous Insect Witch" Creti have all pulled out the royal knights' lineage, and even the army is mixed with several former classmates who were just rescued by Zhu Peng from the Lonsom brothers not long ago.

After chasing and killing the wind-based Zerg spellcaster, running all the way for more than a thousand miles, Zhu Peng simply did a favor to the nearby defenders and cleared out a Zerg crypt that had just been discovered not long ago.

The order of the school's management to participate in the battle on the spot has been issued, and the minimum quota for second-order wizards is ten second-order zergs, or two hundred first-order zergs, and many wizards of the National Royal Knights need to complete the quota task, so they will take advantage of the situation to pull the troops over, anyway, Revere has just successfully blocked a strong saturation blow, whether it is the next wave of attacks from the Demon Alliance or the Zerg, it should not come too soon.

It's been two weeks since the Zerg crypt was developed, and there was even a legendary wizard from Revere who came with the army to get a piece of the pie, and his mission was to kill ten third-order zergs or five legendary zergs or a thousand second-order zergs.

A legendary insect can be converted into two third-order insects, or twenty second-order insects, which means that Zhu Peng's task quota has been completed, and all the kills he kills after this are counted into the merit quota.

This conversion rate is not very rigorous, but it is very much in line with the reality of the current battlefield situation.

The Zerg are an aristocratic class structure, and their total number of third-order lifeforms is not very high, but the proportion of third-order legends is extremely high, which is determined by their social development model:

Only the third-order lifeforms that have been promoted to the legend have their own wisdom and feelings, and ordinary third-order insect people also have their own wisdom and feelings, but they are not very human-like, but more like third-order strong beasts.

After receiving Zhu Peng's order, Lin Qian walked out of the shadows, shook off the wrapped cloak, and began to close her eyes to cast spells, and now she has regained her former youth and beauty.

During the academy war, this woman was swallowed by a giant insect beast and experienced life and death, and the skin of her whole body was burned in a large area, and later followed the Lonsom brothers and did not dare to heal herself at all, and turned seven and eight times and then transferred to Zhu Peng's hands, she was relieved, and healed her old wounds at any cost as soon as possible.

It's a pity that Zhu Peng has turned a blind eye to this familiar delicate face, and just uses Lin Qian as a prophecy wizard, her "pan-consciousness question and answer" ability is much more accurate than the prophecy spell of a low-level wizard.

With the effect of the power of the earth, the earth and stone gradually condensed into a woman with a small body covered with insect scales and carapaces, she kept scratching the left half of her body with her right hand, for this space pan-consciousness eroded by the exotic zerg, the invasion of the zerg was like a sudden serious illness in the body, and the pain and itching in the process of body alienation were almost unbearable.

"Please, tell me if there is anyone at the same level as me in the nearest range...... No, it's a Soul of Light that is one level stronger than me?" Zhu Peng sat behind the desk of the headquarters, and he crossed his hands to the panconscious body in front of him to ask the question he was most concerned about at the moment.

“...... I'm itching. ”

“..................”

"I'm itching, it's hard, I want the heads of those bugs, lots and lots of them, the more the better. The alienated woman with the body of earth and stone clenched her right fist, and her ugly face was full of hideous madness.

"Give it the head of the worm, and cut off the head of all the worms on the battlefield and give it to her. Zhu Peng ordered the herald on the side, and after a while, there were naturally teams of soldiers who sent bags of insect heads one after another, and the insect heads were dumped into the magic array centered on the earth and stone woman, and then infiltrated it like melting, and there was really a lot of accumulation in the past half a month for the clearing of the Zerg crypt, when at least nearly 20,000 insect heads were put into the magic array, the alienated organization on the stone woman's body finally disappeared, and she finally became a rather delicate and peaceful stone girl.

“...... Thank you for your hospitality, noble general, mysterious mage, strong warrior...... As for what you want, it will be yours after all, not yours to pursue it and you can't grasp it, the seeds are planted in the spring, and the rewards will naturally be reaped in the autumn. With the words, in the white smoke, the delicate stone girl dissipated without a trace.

Lin Qian, who was already exhausted, was soaked in sweat and fell to the ground directly after the spell ended, and the black robe that was tightly attached to her body reflected her snow-white skin like a mermaid who had just turned her tail into legs...... The herald soldiers standing behind Zhu Peng were stunned.

“...... Miss Lin Qian was overdone and fainted, so she called the medical guards to come and carry her away, and granted her two days of leave. Zhu Peng lowered his head and pondered the words of the plane's pan-consciousness just now, while picking up a book and opening it.

"Huh!?"

"Ahh

"Oh yes. The young herald who complained frantically in his heart that his boss was incomprehensible trotted out, and when the two medics came to carry Lin Qian away on a stretcher, Akizuki Xue Nari happened to walk in with the documents.

“...... What's wrong with Sister Lin Qian?, why did you faint?" The beautiful girl with long black hair draped over her shoulders asked with some confusion.

"Pretend, like when I first came to Blackcastle, she poisoned herself...... How could a person who had crawled all the way from the mountain of corpses and a sea of blood fall into a coma directly due to the great consumption of mental power and magic power? If she was really so weak, she would not have the ability to follow the Ronsom brothers to Revere alive. As he spoke, Zhu Peng flipped through Charlie Langsom's notes, read against a local witchcraft book and wrote down his own understanding, and compared the notes.

"Brother...... Since you don't care anymore, why do you want to keep these people by your side? Especially that Chu Nan, even your college classmates in the past hated him, and betrayed his faith many times, you actually gave him a higher position than Lin Qian? I can't figure it out. Holding the document between her waist and abdomen in both hands, Akizuki Xue Nari frowned and asked, she seemed to have been bothered by this question for a long time.

"What, that guy Chu Nan offended you?"

"That's not true, he saw me respectfully, obviously a first-order wizard, but...... It's really despicable. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Peng paused the pen in his hand, and then continued to write with his head down, his portable notes were an enchanted high-end item, although it was only a thin copy, but in fact, it almost had the capacity of a library, and it had the ability to index and encrypt, which was very popular in the entire wizarding city.

"Chu Nan...... That guy, I know, when he was on the school basketball team, there were a lot of girls who liked it, and then the abyss came to our world, and he accompanied me to lead those classmates, and Nanyue Senior Sister and bastard Wu Peigang, we ran outside with the classmates who believed in us, and believed that we would be able to get out of that hell alive. At that time, he was a very daring person...... Until his girlfriend died in his arms, he also awakened the shadow ability at that time, and over the years, maybe he has been hiding in the shadow for a long time, and I don't know him anymore. Zhu Peng lowered his head, writing something and speaking softly.

Xue Nari listened quietly beside him, his brother rarely talked to them about these past events, and his brother had always been the kind of forward-looking character, and rarely immersed in the weakness of remembering the past.

"So, brother, are you thinking about the past?"

"I care, why bother to kill, I don't care, why kill? Now these people, what good is it for me to kill? What is the loss for me to save them?" When he said this, Zhu Peng raised his head and looked at his always caring sister beside him.

said with a smile: "I use Chu Nan, only use his talents, and give him a position in the Knights, just because he is worthy of it...... As for the rest of my college classmates, one counts as one, except for Lin Qian and Chu Nan, do you think there is one who is slightly useful? They are all remnants of the earth, and they are all Chinese, just give their mouths a living, hate this, hate that, are they qualified?"

Shaking his head, Zhu Peng spoke differently.

After all, he still wants to leave some elites for Chinese wizards, Li Jingxuan built the Chinese Warriors Association, and even the toilet sweepers only hire the old Chinese masters, and the young and strong black and white people don't want it, Indians have no expertise in cleaning toilets and watching toilets, and they also invited an Indian master to be a lobbyist, but Li Jingxuan rejected it, and he didn't give any face.

The Chinese Samurai Association, even if it is the work of cleaning toilets and washing toilets, unless there are no Chinese remnants to do it, it will never be your turn to be a foreigner. Zhu Peng's stay today is not harmful to him, and he is also in a similar mood, in the future, you will be mixed, take care of the same people who are still unable to eat in the Abyss City, even if you repay me this favor.
