"Still no movement?"

"No, I'm just a third-rate mage, I can't see through the inner barrier, even if there is any movement. Besides...... You have your own props for the Eagle Eye Technique, so why don't you see it yourself? ”

Looking at the floating city hovering over Aiden City, Wengers replied with some impatience, Bridge had to ask five miles away, even if it was a friend's father, even the famous president of the adventure union, he couldn't keep a good temper to face the questions over and over again.

Bridge smoked absentmindedly at the young man's almost rude answer, his eyes glancing at the crystal ball on the table from time to time, and no one could understand the anxiety he concealed under the calm.

Only half a day after Link left, Blumberg sent an urgent summons, and he repeatedly contacted Hohenheim, but the summons was like a stone in the sea, and there was no news.

Just as he was about to say something more, a shadow too fast to see flew in through the open door, and before Wengers could react, the lightning and swift thing had turned into a human form, it was the child of nature who had been gone for a day and a night!

"Yesterday, Brumberg sent an urgent call, and I also contacted Hohenheim, but ......"

Link, who was still immersed in a faint sadness, stepped forward and pressed his hand directly on the crystal ball. Bridge's solemn expression made him realize that there was information in this emergency contact that was not suitable for direct projection.

The magic teleportation was directly projected in his mind, and the contact person was not Orlando, but an underage teenager, his childish expression was full of horror, behind him, Brumberg, dressed in military uniform, shouted in anger, and in a farther perspective, under the city built on the mountain, dense dry bones formed a desperate gray-white wriggling bone sea.

"Nature's Child, come quickly, undead...... The undead are coming, and we won't be able to last long......" In the intermittent sobbing, a scarlet thing silently floated up, children cried heartbreakingly, medics running back and forth, druids casting spells, all the noise suddenly fell silent with its appearance, only Orlando's roar was clearly transmitted.

"Gonzalez!

The image came to an abrupt halt, showing an ominous scarlet crystal ball shattering in Link's hand, and Bridge, who was on the side, couldn't help but take a few steps back. It was the first time he had seen a child of nature so straightforward and unabashedly express his emotions. And everyone who rushed to hear that Link had returned, looked at each other, wondering why Link seemed so angry.

Wilfredo casts an inquiring glance at a friend who might know what's going on.

Wengers waved his hand repeatedly, saying that although he was present, he did not know what was happening.

"Your Excellency," Bridge...... cautiously probing, "Brumberg's side...... What's going on?"

Naturally, he had watched the contents of the magic communication, and those brief images alone were enough to guess what Brumberg was going through. The undead are besieging the city, led by the once-hopeful Befast Duke, who was supposed to be humanity's last hope, but after the depraved transformation, it has become a nightmare that makes humanity desperate.

The pursed lips took a long time in the nervous waiting of everyone before they opened.

"It's completely fallen. ”

Divine Perception gave the worst result, as the only remaining human territory and sanctuary in the east of the Central Continent, Blumberg has been breached by the army of undead led by Gonzalez, not only the white city built on the mountain wall has completely become a dead city, but the entire territory, all the places that were once inhabited by humans, have become a dead domain hovering skeletons, abominations, and ghouls.

The only thing that makes Link happy is that the turquoise pillar of light, which symbolizes the pillar of wind, is still there, the power gained through the pillar is still pure, and the undead have not yet eroded the pillar of wind, but ...... It was only a matter of time, and Hicks would always find a way to contaminate the Pillars of Earth, just as he had succeeded.

Link's words stunned everyone in the union, and with the sound of gasping one after another, even Bridge, who was always calm and steady, couldn't hold the cigarette pouch in his hand, and fell to the ground with a 'click'.

Brumberg has the same important position as Aiden and Befast, and its fall also means that the Wind Pillar, one of the four pillars, falls into the control of the undead, even if the barrier will not be broken for a while, the spiritual blow to the human race is undoubtedly fatal. The Empire has lost its last territory and the only remaining foreign troops, except for the garrison near Aiden, the Silver Empire, and the human race, and there is no surplus combat power.

Bridge covered his forehead and slowly slid down in his chair.

In just a few days, he could not even wonder if the undead had made their way towards Aiden.

The old man looked up at the Child of Nature at his side, and although he did not speak, the anticipation in his eyes was worth a thousand words.

"The Pillar of Wind is not polluted, and the undead alone are not enough to break through the barrier of the Pillar. Link reassured everyone, but he also knew in his heart that it was only a matter of time, and if he didn't get Blumberg back from the undead as soon as possible, the final result of the Wind Pillar would be the same as that of the Earth Pillar. There is no god left to send him back in time to reverse history and fate.

Is this why the Grim Reaper has not moved?

Whether it's going to Brumberg to support or defending Aiden, it means putting another pillar in danger. Still likes to play with people's hearts, and he's as cunning as ever, Hicks.

"What are you going to do?" Bridge naturally understood what the fall of Brumberg meant. Now that Dawn has been expelled, the Dawn Sect has lost this important combat power, and if Link goes to Brumberg, then the new capital Aiden will have to face a siege army led by other lords. However, if he does not go, the pillar of wind will follow in the footsteps of the pillar of the earth, and once it is polluted and eroded, the children of nature who belong to the pillar will also be affected.

It's a dilemma......

"If left unchecked, the pillar of wind will only repeat the mistake of being polluted. ”

"That'...... What about Aiden's side? As you know, Frost has not moved, and this may be the opportunity that he is waiting for. ”

These words don't need to be said by Bridge, and Link understands them.

"The Pillar of Earth is garrisoned by the Glowing Elves, and even if the Dawn Sect is lost, Aiden still has an army that can still fight. "And Brumberg, who has fallen, is clear which is more important.

Link's words have made it clear that he is going to Brumberg. Judging from the current situation, this may be a last resort, after all, the Pillars of the Earth have awakened from the corrosion, and with the glow elves, the undead will not have to worry about falling even if the army is overwhelming in the short term. The ...... that are really dangerous It's Aiden, there is no Dawn Sect, only relying on flesh and blood, how to compete with the undead?

"You can't go!" As soon as the words came out, Bridget realized his gaffe, but he didn't turn back when he opened the bow, and he could only bite the bullet and tell all his inner thoughts: "The fall of the Duke of Befast is not just to cut off Xindu and Blumberg, so that you can't take care of everything." Frost's purpose was the Four Pillars from the beginning, and only by polluting the Pillars could the Grim Reaper remove the resistance that was preventing it from eroding the world. Although Aiden is a new capital with a large population, less than one-tenth of them can actually fight against the undead, and once the undead army is overwhelmed, we will only fall faster than Brumberg. The low-level undead alone are not enough to break through the barrier of the pillar, as long as they are not polluted, they are even frosty...... Even the Grim Reaper can't inflict ...... on the pillar."

Bridge's words were swallowed hard by Link who turned around.

"You're not getting one thing wrong, Bridge. ”

Abandoning the usual title of 'president', Link's sudden move did not make Bridge feel close, but instead produced an indescribable fear.

"I am not your savior, I was not born to save humanity. The pillar summoned me from the Atlas to curb Hicks' corrosive planet. My priority will always be the pillar, the world, and human beings are just one link among thousands of living beings. Please don't have unrealistic delusions about me, as a native, you should know Edgar's laws better than I am as an outsider. The so-called covenant is only to fight together against the undead, and I have no obligation to mankind. ”

Bridge opened his mouth to refute, but his dry throat couldn't say a word.

That's right, from the very beginning, Link has shown his antipathy to humans, but now that Dawn has been exiled, the only thing that humans can rely on is this one who was once a natural child of man, but he ......

"I'm just a variable added by the gods to fight against fate, can it be that before I appeared, you didn't resist? There was no fight?" Looking at the somewhat overwhelmed Wilfredo, Link directly gave the order: "You stay in Aiden as my agent, and I will report back the battle situation and the latest situation." ”

By the time Bridge came back from his trance, Link had already turned into the fastest Falcon and flew away from the new capital.

"Hohenheim is still there. Looking at his father's pale face, Wilfredo couldn't help but be comforted.

Bridge let out an 'um' and it took a moment to realize what it meant.

Bray, yes! The former Great Sage, now the God of Wisdom. Hohenheim summoned Link in a hurry, and must have expected this outcome, so ......

Thinking of this, Bridge finally relieved himself, and with a trembling hand, he touched Wilfredo to help him pick up the cigarette pouch and relight it, and took a few sharp puffs before realizing that he had forgotten to inform the others of this sudden emergency, and hurriedly called the doorman, who was completely frightened, to go to the warehouse and take out the spare crystal ball.

"Quick, notify Captain Eisen, and strengthen the protection of the city gates!"

"And the traders, let them make a good food reserve for the lockdown!"

"What about underground passages? ”

Looking at Bridge, who was busy, Wilfredo's frowning brow was not relieved by his perk.

"Is there anything wrong?" Wengers, who knew his friend too well, leaned in and whispered.

"How so...... Although I am already nominally a temple warrior of the pillars, I am confused about many things. Why did Lord Link name me as his agent here? And the behavior of the undead is so weird, if the Death Rider Lord's intrusion a few days ago is to discord and let Dawn be banished. And why not take advantage of the victory to pursue it? Without the Knights of Dawn, even if Lord Link's strength is already among the quasi-gods, it is impossible to save the whole of Aiden. Moreover, wasn't he here to give the undead a chance to sneak up on the Pillar of Earth? Frost and Cold didn't take the opportunity to act, he didn't feel ...... Isn't it strange? Also, Lord Link should have seen it more thoroughly than I did, why did he still jump headlong into an obviously deceitful trap? He's here, Frost and Cold may not dare to attack, and once he leaves, even if Hohenheim is there, I'm afraid he won't be able to deal with the overwhelming army of the undead. ”

Wengers nodded, looking at the City of Mages suspended above the city:

"Where do we little people like ants know what the superior thinks. I just hope that fate will not be too cruel, so as to leave a glimmer of life for mankind. ”
