The Enterprise, which did not dare to land at all, circled around the town of Sitas, and then continued its march towards the hinterland of Nadal. And in the rancid towns, some rickety figures were hiding in dark corners, watching the departing airship, and then retreated into the darkness again.

The Principality of Nadal, once home to 23 million people, is now far from the borders of the country, with no trace of any living creature in all the villages and towns the airship passes through, leaving only a chilling dead silence. Adele told Weiss that the outbreak of the Ceracroacter was very sudden, numerous, and widespread. Millions of bugs will emerge from the ground at the same time, taking advantage of the darkness to sneak up on those who are sleeping, and some small villages will even fall silently.

"The temples in the surrounding area are ready, and as soon as we open Nadal's temple, they will follow suit when they see the light. The whole operation will last for fifteen minutes, and if those walking insects do not escape, they will be killed by the rich light element, and the precipitated light element will continue to remain in the surface soil for a long time, so that they dare not drill out again. ”

In the makeshift conference room of the Enterprise, Adele explained the steps and precautions for activating the temple to everyone, so that when the actual situation came, others could help in case of an emergency.

"How much of an obstacle might we encounter?" Scardo asked, a rather crucial question.

"It's impossible to judge this, it depends on the density of parasites near the city of Nadal. Ideally, the bugs are too busy expanding outwards to leave an empty city for us, or we'll have to force our way in. ”

"Tsk! I should have known that I should have converted the Enterprise into an armed airship. ”

"Don't worry! I'll make up for the lack of firepower. Kabbalah confidently promised.

"That's the plan, we'll fly directly to the Nadal Temple on the Enterprise, the security team and the Tile Pit Master will stay in the air to provide cover, and Wess and Ling Lan will go down with me to provide cover when I install the orb, and then I will enter the temple to activate the controller. Does anyone have any questions or need to add?"

Adele looked around inquiringly, and everyone shook their heads to say that there was no problem, so the battle meeting ended, and after the meeting, Adele asked Weiss and Ling Lan to stay, saying that they had something to look for.

"I plan to let Weiss master some of the know-how of using 'power' before the battle starts tomorrow, and I hope Ling Lan can help you. ”

"No problem, what do you need me to do? Beat him half to death?"

"Wait, wait a minute!'Half-dead'What's going on?Ling Lan, I shouldn't have you off, right?" Facing Ling Lan, who was eager to try, Weis, who felt that he was not an opponent, said that the pressure was great.

"Uh...... I just said I wanted you to help, why would you think of beating you half to death?" Adele also looked embarrassed.

"Because there is a similar plot in the comics! The protagonist is seriously injured by the opponent first, and then he can break out at a critical juncture, so that the strength can be broken through or something, and it makes people feel so excited after reading it. ”

Ling Lan took out a comic book from his pocket like a treasure, and when Weiss took it and looked at the cover, he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. Brother Chun, who poked seven big holes in Nima's chest! Is this "fit" particularly invincible? The title of the book is "The Fist of the Masters", and it is also "Volume IV: The Domineering Spirit of the King...... Draw comics, buddy, you're also a "fellow" from the earth, right?

"Ling Lan, believe me! The guys who draw this are generally dead houses who can only hold pen and paper, and their own bodies are probably not as strong as one-tenth of the protagonists in their writings. Speaking of which, where did you get this thing?"

"The goblins on the ship gave me these reliefs when they saw that I had nothing to do. ”

"Those green-skinned ......" The thought of almost being beaten by Ling Lan for a comic book made Weiss feel a cold sweat break out on his head, and Adele had a new understanding of Ling Lan's naturalness. Under normal circumstances, the owner of a warrior's chess piece wants to master the power thoroughly and use it freely, ranging from eight or nine years to more than ten years. And those who can achieve it within 5 years after acquiring the chess pieces are without exception named "genius", so people also call this state "awakening".

Like Ling Lan, who "doesn't understand but can use it", can only be regarded as a very small special case. With the widespread use of modern guided weapons, the role of chess piece owners in warfare is gradually decreasing, like Lieutenant General Virgil whom Weiss met before, people simply spend their energy on learning the art of war and making connections, and they don't practice martial arts at all.

Adele has been the owner of the chess piece for almost 300 years, and has naturally reached the "awakening" stage, although she can't make Weiss understand this realm immediately, but at least she has some tips to help him quickly touch the skin. As long as Wess didn't have a tragedy to the point of tears, that day was enough time for him to master one or two of the simplest applications.

The three of them came to Weiss's room, Adele closed the door casually, and there were two men and two women in the room, which always reminded Weiss of some "strange" things, especially when Ling Lan leaned on the window and cocked his buttocks to himself, Weiss even subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Wait a minute, I'll work with Ling Lan to stimulate you with power, this can stimulate your defensive instinct, and then I want you to remember that feeling, familiarize yourself with it and master it as soon as possible, do you understand what I said?"

"See, oppressive learning, isn't it?"

"Almost, let's get started. ”

Adele first asked Weiss to sit cross-legged on the ground, and then she and Ling Lan also sat down one after the other, sandwiching Weiss in the middle, which made the other party feel like a master in a martial arts movie. But before he could begin to appreciate the beauty of the elven royal sister's crop top in front of him, two powerful feelings of oppression erupted one after the other, and Weis's face changed color in an instant.

"This is just the beginning, and the best is yet to come. Seeing that Weis's face was flushed, Adele seemed to have discovered something interesting and good, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

The invisible coercion formed by the two powerful forces, as if coming from all directions, squeezed Wess into it, and just a little overflow made the dwarves who happened to pass by outside the door feel palpitations. And Weiss, who was in the middle of it, even became extremely miserable with every breath, and had to fight with twelve points of spirit. Gradually, he began to feel "feeling......

For the whole night, the three of them stayed in Weis's room and did not come out, and did not even eat dinner. When the haggard Wess came out of the room with a haggard face leaning against the wall the next morning, Kabbalah, who happened to be passing by, was stunned for a moment, and then assumed the posture of an elder, and admonished Wess in a serious voice.

"Young man, be temperate!"

"Master...... I'm too lazy to explain it to you. Weiss replied weakly.

In order to get power, it is inevitable to pay the price, and at present, what Weiss has obtained can be said to be "worth the money"! A night of "torture" can let him touch the skin of some power, such a surname can already make Weiss among the "geniuses", although this is only the first step on the long road, but Adele still feels that Weiss can reach the "awakening" before the age of 20.

"Are you almost in Nadal City?"

"Well, there's less than 300 kilometers left, probably in the afternoon. ”

"Then I'll find a place to sleep, and remember to wake me up in the afternoon. Weiss, who hadn't slept all night, hastily ate something and got up and left the cafeteria. Ling Lan and Adele were sleeping on his bed at this moment, and Weiss didn't dare to tell them to leave with a cold face, nor did he dare to "squeeze together" with a thick face, so he could only find a place to make up for sleep.

Full-powered airships gallop through the mountains and mountains, and dwarves carefully adjust their weapons in preparation for the battle to come. And on the ground, as the Enterprise continues to go deeper, a large number of parasites controlled by the Necroacter are swarming towards the capital, and the number is snowballing wildly.

"Don't you think it's strange, old pit?" On the lookout of the Enterprise, Scardo looked at the parasites that were shuttling through the forest below, and asked Kabbalah without raising his head.

"What's weird?"

"These guys, they seem to be ...... There is a certain organizational surname. ”

"It's not surprising, ants and bees are the same. ”

"I always felt that they were different from ants and bees. ”

"Maybe! How long will we get to Nadal?"

"Come on, just over the hill. Scardo stretched out his hand to point to the peak that the Enterprise was about to climb, and the two looked to the side of the hill, and as the Enterprise approached until it had crossed over, Nadal finally appeared in front of them, and everyone on the deck gasped.

"Oh my God!"

The city of Nadal was the second largest city in South Fengzhou, and was the capital of the Werther Empire more than 100 years ago, with majestic walls and many landmarks. But now the city is smelling of stench and death, and countless parasites are pouring in from all directions, and the city is surrounded by their frenzied figures, large enough to inspire dense phobia.

"Damn, the whole Duchy of Nadal isn't going to gather, is it?" Looking at the dense figure below, Scardo suddenly felt his scalp tingle, and Kabbalah, whose expression was a little dull, turned his head a little stiffly and commanded.

"Go wake up those guys who are still catching up on sleep, it's time for us to get to work!"

ps: Regarding the titles of "qi" and "power", although this refers to the same thing, but considering that the "crossing the great country" Eastern Zhou and the elves as an old otherworldly race belong to two different cultural atmospheres, I made them different in terms of titles, but in the following text, I will uniformly use "qi" as a title to avoid confusion.

Also about "awakening"...... I admit I lick a lot......
