Chapter 157: Calm Waves?
For the next three days, things went oddly well.
Maybe it's because of the two foreign aids, the Black Flame Emperor and Thor, the casualties have been well controlled, although the official wizard has died, but the death toll has not reached the cordon, and the apprentice has not even run out of substitutes.
As a result, Royer had a smile on his face and was able to joke with Thor.
"It seems that this Kuroshio is still a baby, but I don't know how long the next Kuroshio will give us preparation, a year? Or five years? ”
Saul didn't answer, and before leaving work, he discussed the busy issues rigorously.
During this period, Alfonso barely left the bottom of the sea, but his mental power fluctuations have been stable and have not changed much.
This means that the seabed is manageable.
But even so, Royer would still go into the bottom of the sea every day and walk around, as if he was afraid that something would happen to someone on Alfonso's side.
From the fourth day, the new round of Kuroshio has a tendency to weaken. Even the monsters in the sea are not as dense as they were at the beginning.
Thor has also been slightly wounded in the battle these days. Mainly because on the third day, there are a lot of alien monsters attacking the defense zone at the same time.
At that time, Royer was already entangled in another defense zone, but at the same time, there was also a defense zone that was surrounded by two alienated monsters of third-order strength, and he could barely hold out for even a minute.
Thor resisted the tide of monsters all the way, rushed to the defense area at the very edge, and then forcibly carried the attack of one of the third-order monsters, first concentrated his firepower to eliminate another third-order monster, and then turned around and used his tentacles to directly suck the remaining third-order alienated monsters, so as to ensure that the official wizard in the defense area did not die.
He had suffered minor injuries in the back, and the wizard's robe inscribed with the defensive circle had been half shattered.
However, although Thor rescued in time, under the attack of two alien monsters equivalent to the third order, there was still only one official wizard left in the entire defense area.
In this small defensive area, the wizard apprentices were all dead the first time they faced the third-order monsters.
In the end, the only remaining official wizards were automatically incorporated into the rear defense zone according to the arrangement of the Inquisition, completely abandoning the front group defense zone.
It seems that Thor has not been able to change the outcome of the loss of a defensive area, but the one he saved is a second-order wizard, and the impact on a defensive area is still very large.
After solving a small crisis, Thor returned along the way, helping to clean up a lot of monsters along the way.
When he returned to Royer, who had rushed over, even the wound on his back had completely healed.
Now, seeing that the battle was coming to an end, and the number of monsters and the height of the Kuroshio were decreasing, Thor finally returned to the shore and breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he habitually glanced at the sea, and Alfonso's mental strength was still stable.
"Is this coming to an end?" Thor thought silently, "Could it be that I misunderstood the diary?" The reason and occasion for the three third-order deaths were not the Kuroshio defensive battle? ”
He looked up and saw the Black Flame Emperor Arrow again.
There has been no major crisis in the past few days, so the emperor has not officially taken action and has been monitoring the overall situation.
At this time, Royer suddenly returned to the shore as well, "Thor, you've worked hard these days, the tide is starting to recede, and now the battle is basically over, there are only some finishing touches left, you don't have to work hard, you can go back now." ”
Thor's heart jumped suddenly.
Could it be that the revelation of the mask actually happened at the end of the ball?
By the way, it's only at the end of the masquerade that the dancers unmask themselves.
Thor was in good spirits, he couldn't go now!
"It's all here, I'll hold on to it until the end." Thor shook his head.
Royer glanced at Thor and suddenly changed his words, "Well, with you, these wizards are more at ease." ”
During Thor's time, in addition to killing monsters, he occasionally saved wizards who were not dead.
Once the wizard in the defense zone is hit hard, he will be pulled by the monster into the depths of the sea. Their defenses are crushed, and entering the Kuroshio Tide is immediately polluted.
There are powerful wizards who can escape, but the pollution on their bodies is enough to make them lose all their combat effectiveness and become sheep to be slaughtered.
Thor mainly treats these people.
He is only good at the treatment of Kuroshio pollution, and the people here need it the most.
As a result, after four days of fighting and healing, Thor's reputation in the entire Inquisition Court had reached heights that were difficult for any of their local third-order wizards to achieve.
It's almost on par with Royer and Alfonso.
Therefore, Royer was not lying when he said that other wizards were more reassuring.
However, after he praised Thor, he said: "Then please leave it to you here, when the black tide is completely over, some of the materials you consume, the tribunal will double the amount of materials you consume." ”
"Next, I'm going to go to the defense area that other third-order wizards are responsible for, anyway, there is Emperor Ailuo here, and it is impossible for anything to happen here."
Royer laughed, and without waiting for Thor to speak, he directly turned into a flash of fire and flew away along the coast.
Thor was stunned by the other party's sudden operation.
"Why didn't I go back, but Royer left? Did he leave here at the last minute to uncover his face? ”
Thor inhaled the stinking air, and his heart was quite calm. He looked at the Black Flame Emperor in front of him, and then at Alfonso's stable spiritual power coming from the sea, and thought, "It's okay, one ran away, and there are two." If you really can't participate in the masquerade described in the diary, you can also let Midor come out after the Kuroshio is over. At that time, Neflett will have three less heavyweight third-order wizards, and Midor's appearance can be regarded as timely rain, and if Sander operates well, he should be able to gain a firm foothold. ”
Alternatives had already been prepared, and Thor was not in a hurry about Royer's sudden departure, and was still supervising the situation in the defense area that Royer was originally responsible for.
At this moment, his gaze unconsciously moved to the sea beneath the Red Sea forest.
"Royer ...... today It seems that he did not go to the bottom of the sea to check Alfonso's situation. ”
"I used to go every day, why didn't I go today?"
Saul's brows furrowed slightly, "Is it because you don't think there's any need to go and see it today?" ”
His gaze shifted to the Black Flame Emperor again, and his eyes suddenly widened.
"The Black Flame Emperor in front of him is likely to be disguised by Stuart, and the spiritual power coming from the bottom of the sea must be the real Alfonso?"
Alfonso must have been there when Roye checked the post before, but this time Roye didn't check the gang, does it mean that Roye knew...... Alfonso is not there?
Thor furrowed his brows, swept across the entire defensive zone again, suddenly took off from the cliff, and then smashed headlong into the sea like a cannonball.
Royer had already led the way once, and this time Saul had no trouble finding Alfonso's location on his own.
At this time, Thor saw that Alfonso was still standing in the witchcraft circle, intently observing the merfolk all over the ground.
Thor quickly approached Alfonso, but was halfway through his swim when he stopped.
Without him, at this distance, with Thor's powerful spiritual power, he could already sense the strangeness of Alfonso in front of him.
The Alfonso in front of him is a fake mirror image at all!
The real Alfonso was long gone, but his spiritual power continued to spread steadily to the sea, making the illusion that he was still at the bottom of the sea.
"Such a fake mirror image is Alfonso's mask. Now, he has taken off his mask. In other words, his time of death is near! ”
