Chapter 21 Ways to Protect Everyone

Mythical creatures aren't just "fire djinn".

It should be said that the Flame Djinn is just one of the "manifestations" of the thousands of forms of mythical creatures.

In the process of Rena screening the objects of the "God Hunter", Liao Ji can follow the perspective of the succubus to see that in addition to the flame djinn, in other worlds, there are huge ancient fish diving into the deep sea, purple pole birds in thunderstorm stratus clouds, and stone statuettes that merge with the mountains, and shadow spirits in the darkness of the eternal night

Although the form of each mythical creature is different, what they have in common is that they rely on the body of the "savior", and after successfully hatching and descending into the world, they will forcibly transform the world according to their own form, so that the creatures in the world can serve them.

The higher the level of the world, the more mythical creatures occupy the flesh of the player, the greater the degree of transformation of the world, and the more miserable the situation of the world's native creatures.

Like the Flame Djinn, it turns the world into a sea of fire, fueled by living beings.

In the world of the Whale Spirit Ancient Fish, the sea submerged ninety percent of the continent, leaving one percent of the continent, which was used to breed land creatures as feed.

The shadow soul plunges the world into night forever, and under the wings of the purple pole bird, the sky of the world is an eternal thunderstorm.

These mythical creatures, like people who have moved into other people's homes, want to turn everything in the original world into the most comfortable environment for them, and as for the creatures of the world, they have become tenants.

But

Liao Ji looked at the diary, and Rena began to carry out the world of "God Hunting".

There is no monstrous fire, no boundless deep sea, the world is almost no different from the normal world, and there is no shadow of "transformation".

This is not because the mythical creature is benevolent, but because the player's "protagonist" body is too low-level, and it is only at the "disaster" level, resulting in the mythical creature is far from reaching the level of "djinn", and naturally does not have the ability to transform the world.

To be honest, even if it is the lowest difficulty, the protagonist's strength is only at the "disaster" level, and it is not even at the peak of the disaster level, only about sixty or seventy levels, and even the leaders of many other local forces are inferior, which even Liao Ji finds a bit incredible.

Liao Ji can only think that this player is mostly a "diplomat" strategy.

There is indeed this kind of strategy in the game, which is to rely on constantly brushing favorability, and brushing the favorability of each force to a very high level, so as to act as an intermediary to unite a scattered world, and finally crusade against turbidity together.

However, male players like Liao Ji basically scoff at this way, which is far less refreshing than fighting and killing and being a monarch by himself.

When I saw the player's "protagonist" later, sure enough, it was a female character, and this way of clearing the customs was basically a female player who didn't like to fight.

Because the protagonist is a "diplomat" and doesn't have much power, even the mythical creatures that have come with him can't directly rule the world with pure power.

From here, Anno's guess can be confirmed again.

These creatures behind the scenes may be extremely weak or even close to none in their own power, and they all hope for the player's body.

Once the player's strength is weak, they have no choice, and in order to adapt, they can only evolve more wisdom to deal with it.

Liao Ji continued to look at the world of this "disaster-level" mythical creature.

For mythical creatures, wisdom is actually the embodiment of "degrading".

It's as if the mythical creature is not a "god" before, but more like a . Person.

A conspirator.

Although it is weak, the commonality and purpose of mythical creatures remain the same.

After it arrives, it does its best to build a nest for itself and build a comfortable environment.

Therefore, the mythical creature that occupies the player's body does not choose to appear as a "real person".

Instead, they continue to borrow the player's appearance, disguise themselves as the player in front of the native creatures, and thus inherit the player's rights.

The player's protagonist is not very strong, but his prestige in the world is great, especially when he successfully defeated the turbidity and saved the world, almost all the lords of the forces are willing to help the protagonist.

Therefore, it uses this condition to disguise the player to build his own empire.

The native creatures of the world were not dissatisfied with this, but responded one after another, and the process went extremely smoothly.

Following Rena's investigation, Liao Ji is also learning about the history of this world little by little.

After that, it began to boil frogs in warm water, constantly expanding its imperial power, and at the same time secretly collecting children to become nutrients for its strength, each behind-the-scenes creature, will have its own preferences, obviously this behind-the-scenes creature, like children.

And so, it didn't take long for its empire to become the most powerful force in the world.

However, disguised as a "player", it can be deceived for a year or two years, but over time, it will eventually be discovered by some local creatures who were once familiar with the player, and the leaders of the major forces.

But it was too late.

Once it has its own empire, it has begun a clean-up plan, secretly killing those native creatures who discovered its secrets and once had a deep relationship with players.

Or in the name of the "emperor", these "local kings" are branded as fictitious crimes, thrown into dungeons, or pretended to be feasting, but in fact killed with poison.

As she investigated, Rena in the diary became more and more heavy, and the anger in her eyes became heavier and heavier.

This world is not theirs though.

But Rena took a little substitution, what would happen if the creature behind the curtain who descended with the help of Lord Ash's body didn't incarnate as a djinn, and continued to disguise like this mythical creature?

Presumably the ending will not be too bad.

The more sincere the person is to Lord Ash, the more he will be used.

It's like the contractors of the "saviors" in this world, who are disguised as mythical creatures who ask to kill their former companions, and who once fought together against the life and death comrades of the Turbidity.

They don't know why the "Savior" would give such an order, but out of trust in the "Savior", even if it goes against their hearts and endures great suffering, they will swing the butcher's knife at their companions.

Seeing Liao Ji here, like Rena, he couldn't help but think of Jiuyou and Zero.

Their personalities are all subordinate to their own orders, no matter what the order is, even if it is to let "them" kill each other.

And dealing with Sythea is just as easy.

Just like in the current world, the commander of the Imperial Army who helped mythical creatures "execute" many former comrades.

It's the same as "them", it's just that because it's a female player, the gender is reversed, and this male commander of the Imperial Army has always admired the role of a female player.

So the choice of the creatures behind the scenes is also very simple, since they love, they will fulfill each other, in their eyes, love is a low-level behavior, it doesn't matter.

The commander of the Imperial Army, who thought that he had gained love, would give everything for love, and became the best sword for the creatures behind the scenes, clearing a lot of obstacles.

At the price, it may just be a nightly intercourse.

even

When Rena infiltrated the palace of this world and found the creature behind the scenes in the shell of a "savior", there were many naked men in the other party's room, all of whom were sucked dry and drained of their essence, and fell into a fainting.

Obviously, in this way, the creatures behind the scenes are not satisfied with being wooed, but also want to improve its strength.

Even if they were engaged in multiplayer sports and saw their love tainted, the original "contractors" still chose to endure it, including the commander.

There are even many "contractors" who rush to get the favor of the "savior".

Rena felt extremely sick and nauseous for a while.

But she understood.

It's like, in their world, if Lord Ash really sends out an attitude of "grace", those contractors will also flock to it, not caring about anything.

After getting the poison of "love", even if it is a follow-up, like the creatures behind the scenes of this world, they issue a request to let the people of the empire extract thousands of newborns every year as "tribute" to hand in, and the ministers will forcibly carry it out.

Yes.

In this world, all newborns are to be "drawn" from birth, and once they draw lots to "serve", regardless of how many parents' pleading and screaming, they will be taken away by the imperial army.

As for where to go.

It was like now, handed over to the "emperor" to enjoy.

"Commander Dean, it has been counted, 13,948 babies have been transported this time, and they have been placed in the warehouse."

"Well, I'm going to report to Lord Irene."

Commander Dean was just about to turn around, but the subordinate soldiers who were still reporting just now showed ruthlessness, took out a dagger directly from his arms, and stabbed Dean in the heart.

It's a pity that Dean seems to have been prepared for a long time, and reflexively subdued him.

"Why?"

"Phew! You lackey! That's how my brother was taken away by you! Dean, wake up! That's not the savior it used to be, it's the devil! It's the man-eating devil, you"

Before the angry soldier could finish speaking, Dean twisted his neck.

There was pain and hesitation in Dean's eyes, but soon they became numb and as if they were self-hypnotizing, muttering to themselves: "Lord Erin, who can't be, Lord Erin, must have some kind of suffering, it must be"

Before he could finish speaking, a powerful burst of power erupted from the depths of the palace, waking Dean awake, and the panic in his eyes intensified as he looked into the underground.

Because that's their Elin's dormitory.

Even if this ability is beyond imagination, Dean has never seen it before, but for Lord Erin's loyalty, Dean did not hesitate to immediately set off to help.

When Dean arrived, he found that the original golden bedroom of Lord Erin had now been destroyed into ruins under the dark matter storm.

The one who caused all this was the one who floated above the ruins.

Succubus?

"Who are you?" Dean asked nervously at the powerful succubus.

Rena didn't pay attention to the native, she was engrossed, staring at the sudden attack by herself with her eyes full of coldness, obviously completely unexpected, and now showing a look of "fear".

No, it's the creature behind the scenes that lives inside the shell of "Irene".

It turns out that they are also "afraid"?

Rena continued to attack, and her powerful ability turned the surrounding dark matter into a thorny whip that struck Erin directly.

This behind-the-scenes creature, although it rules the world, is also constantly using newborns to feed and enhance its strength, but the starting point is too low, and in the end it is only about level eighty.

Although Rena is level ninety, she is only ten levels higher, but these ten levels are the watershed between disaster level and disaster level, and each level has a huge improvement, not to mention a difference of ten levels.

There is still a huge disparity in the strength level of the two sides, and the creatures behind the scenes who reside in Erin's body are no match for Rena at all.

However, seeing that the next blow could completely make Erin lose her mobility, what Rena didn't expect was that at this time, there was actually a figure blocking in front of Erin.

Flutter!

Rena's arrows pierced Dean's body, the loyal Imperial Commander and the Emperor's lackey, who was still willing to use his life to delay time for his "Lord Irene".

"Run, run, Ai."

Dean had not finished speaking, but when he turned back, he found that his Lord Erin had not even looked at him more, and had already fled quickly.

The cold back seemed to give Dean the final blow.

He couldn't help but think back to the old Erin, the one who had blocked enemy attacks for him many times on the battlefield, the one who fought alongside him and always said "I'm here".

When did it start?

Why. Mistress Irene

The foolish Dean, as if completely angered Rena, the succubus no longer spared, and the powerful power from the "Calamity" level doomer made the entire sky change color, and a cloud of dark matter like a black hole appeared in Rena's hands.

Liao Ji recognized that this was Rena's nirvana, and it was also his protagonist skill - [Annihilation]

"Keep your eyes open."

"That's not your Lord Erin at all!"

The black hole of annihilation in Rena's hand caught up with the fleeing Erin with extreme speed, and then as Irene's body was swallowed by annihilation, the creatures behind the scenes residing in her body finally could not be disguised.

It was forced to reveal its true form, a massive spider-like creature with twelve eyes.

It screamed at Rena, struggling to break free from the black hole's attraction, until it seemed to beg Rena to let it go.

And under this scene, Dean was completely stunned, and there was no need for Rena to say anything more, Dean understood everything, no, in fact, he may have subconsciously guessed it a long time ago, but he has been unwilling to face it.

Eventually, the spider creature was completely swallowed by Rena's black hole and completed the capture.

Rena's goal in this world was achieved, and before leaving, the succubus took one last look, still kneeling on the ground, and Dean with a stunned expression.

The Imperial Commander finally chose to cut himself, like this, so that he could feel a little better, and he was alive, and he could no longer face the former comrades who had been executed by him and died under his hands.

But in the end, Dean's face still showed a little happiness.

That's like saying.

Fortunately.

Thankfully, it wasn't really Lord Irene.

His Lord Irene is still the savior whom he respects and loves so much.

This image of Dean was deeply imprinted in Rena's mind.

and the lessons of this world, which eventually led Rena to another thought.

Although she has successfully captured the creatures behind the scenes, it is still unknown whether she will be able to successfully interrogate and successfully exchange for Lord Ash.

So Rena has to do it just in case, and prepare for the worst.

She wants

Reducing the influence of Lord Ash.

Rena will never allow it, the result of their hard work, the Ash Empire has become someone else's wedding dress, such a complete and powerful empire is equivalent to directly allowing the creatures behind the scenes to control the world without conspiracy.

In the same way, she didn't want to see those "foolish" contractors being used and played with by the creatures behind the scenes in the shell of "Lord Ash".

If only there had been such a day.

Rena would rather that the contractors, including "them", are going to "hate" Lord Ash so that they can protect everyone.

And if through interrogation, Lord Ash can really be retrieved, this strategy will not be affected.

Because the real Ash Lord.

Rena, thinking about her experience, became more and more affirmative.

The real Lord Ash will definitely be able to get "them" back.

Certain.
