Hokuriku Border, Experimental Zone 1, Princess Mansion.

The huge Void Battleship slowly descended, and only came to a slow stop less than ten meters from the apron of the top building, at such a close distance, the oppressive feeling brought by the huge hull was palpitating, and many people secretly poured out of the factory to watch this rare super battleship.

At present, only the Crimson Heavy Industry of the New Polar Night has the ability to build this kind of continental-level Void Battleship, even if it is Bai's Heavy Industry and Winter Zero Heavy Industry, there is no corresponding construction process now, such a battleship has extremely strong combat power, enough to block any attack from low-level players, and can easily shuttle through the Void Tunnel, without having to sail in the airspace like ordinary warships.

Of course, if the Void Battleship is sailing in the airspace, other floating ships will definitely give way when they see it, not only the difference in combat effectiveness, but also the size of people is dozens of times that of yours.

The Void Battleship dropped a pillar of magical light, and several figures emerged from it and landed on the tarmac on the top floor of the building, where Lori personally led people to welcome them in the snowstorm.

What surprised her was that it was not only the university scholar and the chief of the New Polar Night Think Tank Miri who came to visit, but also Shizuko Ise in a black tight ninja suit, the heroic Enchantress in a martial arts uniform, and Li Xinyi, who was not at all restless and more curious than a cat.

After a few people landed, the huge battleship shook slightly, turned around in an elegant posture, and instantly flew into the sky, and then adjusted the direction of the course and headed into the distance.

"Welcome to Experiment 1. Luo Li chuckled at them, and then locked her eyes on Li Xinyi.

This little one, who is only two or three years old, looks about the same age as a child of seven or eight years old, and it is difficult to estimate her real age in terms of behavior, words and deeds.

Luo Li narrowed her eyes and felt the dark golden origin aura on Li Xinyi's body, as well as the unique temperament of a player.

She's already a player?!

"Has Xin Yi participated in the player assessment?" Luo Li asked in surprise, if she also became a player, then the title of the youngest player in the Seven Continents that she had just obtained would change hands.

It's also incredible.

Their children really can't guess with common sense.

"It's a long story, Xin Yi seems to have a player carrier in his body, so even if he doesn't participate in the assessment, I'm afraid he can be automatically promoted to a player. Mi Li nodded, and led everyone to follow Luo Li, "Let's talk about the matter in your letter first." ”

"Well, as you can see, Tiger Tiger, the captain of the second exploration team, has been missing for a long time, he is a combat level 3 guardian, and his combat power is not weak, according to the information given by the management committee, after Tiger disappeared, everything about him has not changed, and there is no entry and exit news from the Seven Continents. ”

Luo Li asked the mechanical Micha to take Li Xinyi to play somewhere else, and she walked into the conference hall with Mi Li.

The female assistant had already arranged in the hall, placing the light curtain projection in the center, which displayed all kinds of information about the incident.

"With our information channels, the possibility of Tiger's defection can be completely ruled out. Miri added, sitting down in her seat, "The non-existent Tanus team member is also suspicious, as far as I know, no illusion magic can blind a level 3 player for that long." ”

"I've asked a few friends before I came, and they told me clearly that even occult magicians can't do this, at least at least there hasn't been a similar illusion magic in the Seven Continents yet. Shizuko Ise on the side added, then looked at Lori and stretched out her hand, "By the way, I forgot to explain myself, I'm Shizuko Ise, a Level 3 assassin, and a college classmate of Miri." ”

"This is the Enchantress, a Level 3 Guardian and a classmate of ours from our college days. In fact, the three of us, along with Li Xiang and another girl, once formed a college club called 'Tales of the Night'. Mi Li smiled and pointed to the enchantress, "This society is the predecessor of Crimson Heavy Industries. ”

"I see, two sisters, I'm Lori Oakes, from the Shield King Oakes family. Luo Li's eyes lit up slightly, and she seemed to be very curious about their past with Li Xiang.

She only knew that Li Xiang was admitted to the Asian Continent Lighthouse Player University, and later studied at the Lighthouse Academy, during which there were many strange things, but unfortunately the time was long, the Lighthouse Academy was gone, and many legends were so deformed that she couldn't understand what his college career was like at all.

Much has been heard about the "Legend of the Night" and Crimson Heavy Industries, and the deal between Li Xiang and Brigadier General Andrea on the border when they started is even more talked about, which is recognized as one of the most important milestones in the promotion of the machinery industry.

They had also heard about Lori, and the four of them exchanged pleasantries for a while before continuing to return to the previous topic.

"I invited the Enchantress and Shizuko, and two more will be here in a while, one is Xue Ni, the head of the Holy Costume Church that you are familiar with, and the other is the CEO of the Cicada Dew Temple Group, Cicada Dew Temple Tianyin. Mi Li looked at the time, opened her bag by the way, and took out a large stack of documents, "According to the information provided by Luo Li, I think this matter has nothing to do with the sea of stars and even the Gate of Eternity, so I invited everyone over." ”

"The Demon Queen is a member of the Demon Family of the Ancient Martial Arts Family, and has been active in the borders of various continents to carry out missions, and is familiar with this kind of thing; Shizuko is a super expert in finding traces and clues, and she should be able to see the clues left at the scene; Xue Ni has been engaged in religious careers for a long time and knows more about things like sacrifices; as for Tianyin, the Cicada Dew Temple family where she belongs is also one of the Ancient Martial Arts families, and she has been living in the Sakura Shrine at the beginning, so she must have heard of similar things. ”

After explaining this, there was a knock on the door of the conference hall, and Tianyin, who was dressed in dusty professional clothes, and Xue Ni, who was wearing a nun's clothes, also walked in.

They greeted the others and took their seats.

After chatting a few words, she couldn't help but talk about the anecdotes of the two and Li Xiang in the ultimate trial, and when she heard that Li Xiang helped them get admitted to the university, Luo Li couldn't help but nod, but she was smitigating in her heart how the teacher could have so many confidantes all of a sudden.

It can be seen that his influence on these girls is not small.

Especially Cicada Dew Temple Tianyin, when she mentions the teacher, she blushes, which is completely different from the image of a strong woman that she has always commented on, which is only like this when facing people she likes!

Feeling that her opponents were not weak and that there were still many of them, Lori clenched her small fists and warned herself not to relax.

The topic of Li Xiang came to an end, and they continued to discuss this matter.

"Similar to Miri's guess, I suspect that this is an evil ritual arranged by some god-like being. It's just that I don't know the true identity of the other party. Theoretically, high-level players, monarch calamities, rulers, and even Eternal Beings could set up similar rituals for worshippers to sacrifice. Xue Ni rubbed the document in her hand and said word by word, "I'm more inclined to the Dominator, because this design is obvious, and the existence behind it is either sealed and unable to act, or it has long lost a certain amount of thinking and sanity. ”

"The role of the ancient altar is generally to sacrifice or be born, if it is the latter, the eternal existence can be ruled out in the first place, and that level of birth is completely insufficient by this means. Cicada Dew Temple Tianyin added, "There is a high probability that it will be an ancient ruler in the depths of the Star Sea who cannot move freely, and this kind of behavior will occur." ”

"In the past few years, there have indeed been many changes in the issue of faith on the border, and with the independence of the five thrones, the establishment of the evil court and the poker club, the original pattern has long been broken. For the border people, only those who can shelter themselves are the true lords of faith. It's not too bizarre that Tanghis Village just destroyed the Shield King statue, but it was arrogant to destroy it and throw it away at will, which made me feel that the supporters behind it might not be under the Shield King. "Of course, maybe it's just the illusion that the existence gave them. ”

"So to be on the safe side, I think it's better to go to Tanghis Village together. Mi Li nodded, "Bring your exploration team with you, there are so many players, and it is impossible for the other party to let us all disappear quietly." By the way, Tianyin and Xue Ni's strength is not enough, so you will stay in the test area for the time being, and once we haven't come back within the appointed time, you can also react quickly to save us. ”

The two nodded.

"Without further ado, let's go. Lori also had this intention, she had never been to Tanghis Village before, because she was worried that there would be changes, and she was not there, so she might not be able to see what was wrong.

Mechanical Micha stayed here to accompany Li Xinyi and the others, and the others boarded the battleship docked here and set off for Tanghis Village.

The mountains and rivers below the battleship quickly receded, and a black dot could occasionally be seen in the white snow, which was a moving wild animal.

Many snow-capped mountains are extremely steep, and the tops of the towering mountains are covered with snow and ice, and they are rarely visited.

Every time she came to these places, Lori always had the illusion of returning to Icemark City, she looked at a huge snow-capped mountain not far away, and whispered, "That's the mountain range where Tanghis Village is located." ”

"In such a high place, the air is thin, the environment is harsh, and the materials are scarce, ordinary people can actually live. Miri smiled, "But as the location of the altar, it's very good, and it's highly hidden." ”

The peak of the snow peak seemed to be slashed and flattened by the heavy sword, and a strange dark red light covered the peak.

The peaks are treacherous, with snow and fog and strong storms.

Several gray shadows traveled at high speed through the wind and snow, and their actions were like electricity, and it was Luo Li and his party.

With a map provided by the test area, they quickly found the location of the village of Tanghis.

The village was built on a flat plot of land at the bottom of a snow-capped mountain, with scattered houses but old facilities, and now under the endless snowstorm, the old buildings are crumbling, as if they could be destroyed at any moment.

"People are gone. Shizuko Ise entered the village as fast as she could, and the other assassins got busy.

After a while, when she returned to the same place, she came to this conclusion,

"I'm sure there were people living here, quite a few of them, but they suddenly disappeared ten days ago. ”

Hearing her use the word "disappear", several people looked over curiously.

"None of the traces in the room have been removed, and some of the tables even have food, so it can be seen that it was not a premeditated escape, but suddenly all disappeared. Shizuko Ise explained.

After some searching, the assassin team did not come up with any valuable information.

As she said, people disappear suddenly.

Of course, it's not uncommon for a wide range of transfer magic and forbidden spells to be able to do this.

"There are still some doubts. Shizuko Ise led a few people around in a circle, and then stood in the center of the village, "First, there is no aura of calamity here, which is completely different from our previous inference; ”

She clicked on the huge stone sculpture on the side—

A strange black vertical pupil, evil and terrifying.

"Not only here, but almost every household has a similar sculpture hidden, which can confirm that this is supposed to replace His Majesty's new faith. Shizuko Ise looked at the enchantress.

The enchantress comprehended, and said: "Generally, the reason for the substitution of faith that I understand is one thing, that is, the new faith can effectively give refuge to believers in a timely manner. The owner of this sculpture may have given them real shelter and made them think that he was more powerful than His Majesty, which made them abandon their old faith. ”

"But if these villagers are ordinary people, a little low-level player can fool them, as long as you have time to spend it. ”

"It's a pity that it won't be a low-level player who can make a level 3 player disappear out of thin air. Miri nodded.

"Vertical pupils, vertical pupils......" Luo Li looked at the black vertical pupils repeatedly, always feeling that she had seen them somewhere.

It took her a moment to come to her senses.

"This, isn't this very similar to the Ji family's inheritance magic!" Luo Li pointed to these black vertical pupil sculptures and said, "The Ji family can open a black vertical pupil on the forehead, and they have some very weird abilities. ”

As soon as she reminded her, the others immediately felt that it was indeed very similar.

styling, evil feelings, and so on.

Could it be that the Ji family is spreading faith?

Impossible.

The Ji family was invaded by Li Xiang once, and then it was completely crushed by the Empress of Nothinglight, and the current Black King Ji family almost existed in name only.

After the two holy battles of the Black King, I am afraid that there are not many high-level players left in the clan, who else will run to such a place to harvest faith?

"You can go back and send a message to ask Xiaoyi and Ruoyu. Mi Li nodded, this black vertical pupil is the psychological shadow of many people, at this moment, it really has a weird taste, "If it's really them, then kill them by the way." ”

"I'm afraid it's not the Ji family, but the ......" Luo Li's expression was solemn, and she had a bold guess, but she still didn't say it.

What is the motivation?

Could it be the Black King himself?

He, a level 9 pinnacle player, needs to harvest this belief?

But if you think about it carefully, it is really this guy who can make some ordinary people believe in it, and is indeed capable, theoretically above the Shield King.

After all, not long ago, the Shield King had just lost to the Black King.
