Chapter 520: The Day the Monster Descends

The day of the arrival of the monster prophesied by the high priest of the Cult of God has finally arrived.

The morning sun rises as usual, but most of the people involved have been awake for a long, long time...... Emperor Marreno and the high priest personally sat on the defensive tower on the periphery of the palace, and they have been staring at it since the middle of the night last year.

Although the previous prophecies almost did not happen during the day, the two still did not dare to relax in the slightest.

The soldiers of several armies were also arranged in various parts of the royal city, divided into several teams, and exchanged guard posts at a frequency of two hours.

The rest of the soldiers stayed in the makeshift camp after being heavily guarded to recuperate.

The royal palace of the Maleno Empire no longer has any ordinary human existence. All the dependents were evacuated to safety, and the only ones who remained in the palace were a few agile powerhouses with reconnaissance missions - the kind that could escape even if they encountered monsters.

With the palace as the center, an elite unit is stationed in each of the eight directions radiating out. The strong combat effectiveness of these soldiers is also the guarantee of the safety of the Wangcheng urban area that is only separated by a few buildings.

As for the adventurers who came to hear the news, they were in the cracks of these eight directions, waiting for the opportunity.

In fact, the arrangement of the troops had already begun a day earlier, and the adventurers, also last night, rushed to the designated place, waiting for the moment when the prophecy would come true.

The mood of the adventurers is very relaxed, at least more relaxed than when they are out hunting alone, after all, in this battle, the army of the empire is the protagonist, and they are just playing their own small role under the protection of the protagonist.

With a backer, naturally there is no panic.

What's more, the scale of the entire defense agency, they are also obvious to all.

Whether it is the magic cannon set up in a high place, or the defensive shields arranged everywhere, it is a weapon that can absolutely guarantee safety. Even in ordinary hunting, it is difficult for monsters such as dreads and demons, which are large and dangerous targets, to survive such a tight siege.

Of course, there is a price.

However, the battle related to the foundation of the Maleno Empire, no matter how much manpower and material resources are invested, is worth and necessary.

Ellie's group didn't go through anyone's relationship to find a more comfortable location or camp. Instead, like those ordinary adventurers, they came to the adventurer's camp in the southeast of the city, between the two armies, where they waited for the appearance of the monster.

Although there were many adventurers who poured into the royal city, there were far fewer people who dared to come to the scene to prepare for the battle at the first time. Add to that the dilution of eight directions, and there are even fewer adventurers near Ellie.

At a glance, you can see the head, and there are only about a few thousand people.

Among the thousands of people, most of them were long-range combat adventurers with magic wands, and there were only five or six hundred people who were actually equipped with weapons and stood in front.

Ellie's group was also among the five or six hundred.

The young and beautiful women all made Ellie and others the focus of the people around them. But at this time, no one has the leisure to talk to them, after all, these girls don't seem to be easy to mess with......

Ellie was directly covered with black armor, which was much thicker than the one she used before, and her defense power was naturally improved. Ellie, who had always been bare-handed, took a sword and shield for the first time.

This set of swords and shields is pitch black, and it was assembled by Ellie herself from armor pieces, and at the same time, it also uses a little bit of various monster materials purchased from the market.

When it comes to assembling these gears, Ellie is completely self-taught. Prior to this, Ellie had never specialized in crafting weapons or equipment, all of which was due to talent.

The talent of the cave worm.

As a dormant predator, the cave worm will still collect usable materials from its prey to use as its own armor accessories, although its body is already very hard.

The working principle is similar to that of hermit crabs, but it is much more sophisticated than hermit crabs.

And this talent is carried over to Ellie, which makes Ellie directly become a master of assembling weapons. Even if this equipment did not have any magic fluctuations that diffused, the people around him did not dare to underestimate this set of armor and the matching weapons.

These adventurers are definitely not superficial to the point of being afraid just by looking at the appearance of the weapon. But they are still afraid of Ellie and her party.

If you want to ask why......

After all, a girl wearing close-fitting leather armor who had quarreled with the black-armored girl, and the two bladeless hilts hanging from her shoulder strap exuded the fluctuation of purple-level weapons all the time......

Purple-level weapons, two.

No matter how strange the appearance and small size are, the people around them will never simply treat these two sword hilts as toys.

Purple-level equipment, but it's priceless...... Even if it's something that can barely step into the purple level, if you go to get a magic guide cannon to exchange it, you may not be able to get it back......

In addition, the arm armor of the girl's right arm exuded fluctuations several levels higher than the hilt of the sword!

It's higher than the purple-level equipment, what kind of concept is that?Purple-level top tier?...... Or is it the legendary equipment on top??

Just kidding, right??

Legendary equipment is not actually provided at home?

How confident is this in his own strength............

Think about it another way, how strong should this girl's strength be to be able to control three pieces of rare treasure-level equipment? ?

Compared with Ellie and Yumi, Mia Heidi Barot next to her is not so eye-catching. After all, there is nothing particularly noticeable about them.

Marlena wasn't one of the few, after all, she hadn't thought of being involved in the fight. The place where she was now was at a front-line command office near the palace.

Rejana is also here.

Everyone in the vicinity of the palace paid close attention to the movements in the palace, because they didn't know when the door to teleport monsters would open.

A number of monsters will rush out of the gate.

At that time, the battle will begin.

This is a morning.

For a whole morning, there was not a single movement in the palace. Even the strong men who were on the front line did not notice any anomalies.

For the first time in hundreds of years, the royal palace of the Marenor Imperial City was so quiet.

There were no servants coming and going, no more guards standing guard, and some were just the wind blowing from unknown directions, rustling the trees in the courtyard of the palace.

The shadows of the trees cast by the sunlight swayed against the stone walls and glass windows.

However, Su Wen, who was in the cave in the ground, could only sit next to the coffin cocoon, leaning on the coffin cocoon, feeling the beating in it, and then thinking.

What is the situation above?

Fei, when will it come out?

Thinking about it, Su Wen stretched out his hand and knocked on the coffin cocoon, making a crisp sound of "click", as if he was knocking on the door.
