Before leaving the Light Fortress, the Dwarven Earth Knight guarding the gate of space condescended, stood on top of the mechanical arm and warned everyone, "The dark and light have their own order, you have worked hard to come from the dark world to the legendary light world, and you don't want to be hunted down by the official forces here for inexplicable reasons, right?" Next, keep three principles in mind. ”

"First, the west is the sphere of influence of the Wizarding Society, and those who go west are not allowed to massacre, plunder, or rape any civilians. Otherwise, they will be pursued by the Knights of the Tempest until death. ”

"Second, the east is the power of the human kingdom, but it is also a kingdom of believers in the goddess of wind, one of the four pillar gods, no one is allowed to spread the belief of other gods, otherwise they will be hunted down by the Elemental Wind Church endlessly, and they will also die in death."

"Last but not least, no fighting is allowed within a radius of ten miles between the Bright Fortress and the Dark City, otherwise it will be regarded as a provocation to Mountain Flame City and the Night Wizard Guild, and those who do not follow the rules will be hunted down by both of us, and they will not die as well!"

The Vault Dwellers, who were still very excited, were like being drenched by a basin of ice water, and they were suddenly poured cold on their hearts.

What?

You can't plunder, you can't commit adultery, you can't kill people?

So what am I doing in the Bright World?

Soak up the sun?

Many people were secretly unconvinced, and only took the words of this dwarf as a deaf ear. You can't do it here, and you can manage it when you leave here?

The earth knight also knew this, and no longer wasted his saliva, and waved his hand to let the dwarven warrior let him go.

In this way, more than a hundred knights and wizards were like prisoners who had been imprisoned for hundreds of years and regained their freedom, or ran wildly, or rode magical beasts like the wind, and in a moment they flocked to the opposite castle to resist darkness.

The dwarven warriors around him sneered: "These fools don't seem to have listened to our chief's advice at all, do they really think that they are vegetarians who can fight the forces of three medium-sized city-states at the same time by themselves?" ”

"Look, in a few days, less than half of these people will die."

"Hehe, whatever. It's not our people who are dying anyway. ”

"It's so boring to stay here, I really want to drink."

"I'd love to cross the river to mine, and I've heard that the new Dragon's Blood Stone is perfect for making small things, and it's perfect for polishing arrowheads."

"Really? Then I will definitely apply for the next round of defense. ”

The building quickly turned crooked.

……

The Dark City is a bridgehead against the forces of darkness.

It's the wizards telling the dwarves that we don't trust anyone from the dark world. Our wizard's tower may be gone, but there is still a large barracks in this castle.

In front of the city gate, the caravan that came from the kingdom to trade with the dwarves, knights and wizards from Mountain Flame City, tried to preach to the dwarves, and all kinds of people expelled two long dragons.

Herman and Vera rode the Manticore.

Along the way, what was once a battlefield turned into a trade road, black mud mixed with blood and broken bones covered in lush fresh grass, and no one except those who witnessed the war knew what kind of terrible battles took place here. Even if Herman didn't fight here, the similar environment still touched him.

"What's wrong with you?" Vera asked, turning her head, trying to find something in his gaze.

Herman let out a long breath and smiled, "It's nothing. ”

After a moment of silence, he finally decided to tell Vera the truth: "Actually, I am not from your dark world. ”

Vera wasn't much surprised, she had already guessed from the conversation between him and Reynolds.

"So what?" The girl said disapprerovingly.

Herman was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "So you already knew!" Also, I'm actually a member of the Knights of the Tempest, which is affiliated with the Night Wizards. Well, it's the force behind this dark city. ”

Vera was still unmoved, and said, "I also guessed, otherwise with your strength, it would be impossible to pass through the space gate of the dwarf race." ”

"Uh. I would say that I'm going back now, and I probably won't have a chance to see each other again. Where do you want to go? Let me introduce you to the surrounding spheres of influence, you can stay in the city for a few days and wait until you think clearly before you set off. ”

Herman Road.

Vera's eyes flashed a little fluctuating, but she didn't say anything, nodded and said, "Okay, you say, I'll listen." ”

"The place we are where we are now is Scacogne, the most famous grain producing area of our Wizarding Society, and to the west is the Wizarding Society's proper, where there is a small foreign population, and it is basically the Wizard's family and planters......"

Herman gently pinched the manticore's legs and walked slowly forward through the group.

Immediately attracted the dissatisfaction of the honest queue people, these people are not good stubble, and they all showed fierce eyes.

But no one did it.

Because it is expressly forbidden to do anything here.

Besides, there will naturally be someone to clean up the unruly, and the means can be called ruthless.

In a gloating gaze, Herman and Vera slowly walked forward.

At this time, Andrei in the line shouted at him: "Two fools, don't go forward, go to the back and line up." This is not a dark world, and if you don't follow the rules, you will die. ”

Herman laughed and said, "You guy, why are you suddenly kinder now?" ”

Andrei's face darkened: "I just don't want my beauty to die for no reason." Who cares if you die, hurry up and line up in the back, bad ......"

As he spoke, he saw a bald knight at the head of the city holding a strong bow, aiming at the two and shouting: "That guy who has no head and no brains, roll to the back of the team with your demonic beast." Don't look for death. ”

Andrei urged urgently: "Hurry up and do it, otherwise he will really release the arrow." ”

Obviously, this is not the first time he has come to Denial Dark City. The people around also stood far away before they started to watch the play - there are always idiots who don't know whether to live or die who like to die, which can be regarded as a classic play.

Rao is Vera knew Herman's identity, and she couldn't help but nervously tear off a handful of tiger hair, so painful that the manticore-tailed tiger wanted to shake her off.

Herman laughed and shouted at the bald man at the head of the city: "Okay, good, I haven't seen you for a few months, just welcome the brothers who have been friends with each other!" ”

Everyone was stunned, what was this guy talking about? Lose your marbles?

Before he could figure it out, he had already seen the strong man throw away the attack, shout behind him, and then rush down the ten-meter-high city wall.

"Pilsen, Barron, come on, Herman's bastard isn't dead yet!"

Boom!

Impatient, Morey jumped five meters above the ground and smashed a shallow pit directly into the ground. This height was enough to paralyze the ordinary source knight, and the wizard was thrown to death, but the big man patted his ass and stood up like no one else, and rushed towards the young girl riding the tiger.

"Hahaha, you're still alive."

The dirty boy jumped off the tiger's back, and the two came to a bear hug.

A moment later, there were two more sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground, and everyone saw two members of the Order rushing out of the smoke and dust again, directly overturning the two of them, and the four of them hugged each other.

The laughter shook the sky.

This scene made Andre look stupid, what is the origin of this guy, he actually knows someone from the Knights of the Tempest?

The onlookers were even more dumbfounded, thinking that they could watch a good show, but they didn't expect that the other party would have a great background, but they maliciously speculated that they had become clowns.

Extremely excited, Morey and the others ignored the opinions of others, and they were very happy that Herman could come back alive.

"You kid, it's a shame that we were sad for you for a long time, but we didn't expect to come back quietly." Morey said happily.

Barron was speechless with excitement, and only choked up: "Captain! ”

Herman patted him on the shoulder and scolded with a smile: "Don't come to this set, it's not a." I just escaped death, don't cry for me, just go back and drink together. ”

When Barron heard this, he nodded again and again: "Yes!" ”

"Hehe, then we're going to kill you."

Morey and Pilsen said in unison.

"No problem, let go of Jae!"

The conversation between the four of them made the others stunned, this guy from the dark world turned out to be an officer of the Knights?

I heard that the officers of the Knights must at least have the strength of a high-level source knight and enough combat merits to be able to serve as officers?

Why is this kid?

"No, why are you here?" Herman suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Before a few people could explain, the horses' hooves flew rapidly in the city, and a team of knights went on a rampage, directly breaking the crowd away. The procession in and out of the city was disrupted, and the crowd was crowded, and many of them were strong and fiery men who wanted to throw these arrogant knights off their horses, but the huge bed crossbows that shone with elemental brilliance on the walls silently warned everyone not to act rashly, no matter what.

"Damn the Knights!"

"It's so flamboyant."

"What is Zhang Yang, this is someone else's territory. I heard that the king's words are not easy to use here. ”

"Looking at their posture, most of them are in a hurry to go out of the city, is it possible that there will be a war again?"

Many people speculated, especially the knights and wizards who came from the dark world were even more shocked, many of them already knew the name of their Vault Dweller, in the light world they were rats that everyone shouted at them, even if everyone suddenly made a move on them, no one would feel wrong.

But I didn't expect this team of knights to just go out of the city to pick up people.

A whole team of source knights rushed to the outside of the city gate, knelt down on one knee in unison, and said in unison with an excited expression: "Welcome back the captain!" ”

The scene was truly shocking.

"Get up."

Seeing familiar faces again, Herman was in a good mood. But he found that there was one person missing, so he asked, "How did you adjust your defense?" Where did Grace go? ”

"Grace stayed in Castlevania, and as for why we came......," Barron said, "It's a long story, let's talk about it first." As he spoke, he looked at the scorpion-tailed tiger and the gray girl on the tiger's back, and asked with a strange expression, "I can understand the monster, this woman?" ”

Herman said: "Her name is Vera, and she is a partner with me who has experienced life and death. ”

When everyone heard this, they were in awe.

After entering the city with great fanfare, after washing, a group of people got together to talk about what happened after the mission.

Pilson said: "Finally, with the addition of wizards, only nineteen people have returned, and the rest are either killed in battle or their whereabouts are unknown. We've been waiting for more than ten days and haven't seen you come back, where have you been? ”

Herman replied, "Despite the armor of the leader and the sword given by Chief Kelvin, I could not defeat the abyssal monster, and finally tried to blind it in the eye, but the monster punched it down the abyssal cliff, if it were not for the river below the cliff, I am afraid I would not have come back." After soaking in the river for an unknown number of days, I ended up in a place called Gloomy Crystal City, where I recuperated for a while before trying to find a way back, Vera was met in the process of searching for the map, and finally found my way back after many dangers. ”

Except for the matter of hiding the Holy Fire Cult, Herman said everything he could say.

Everyone listened with excitement, and secretly wondered how much they might have survived if they had met Herman. Of them, only Morey and Plzen understood how difficult it really was.

"It's good to be back." Pilson sighed. Compared to those who can't come back, no matter how many twists and turns and tribulations they go through, they are lucky.

Herman nodded and asked, "You haven't said why you're here?" Why did Grace leave the team? ”

Barron, a strong man, rarely revealed his true feelings, and said lightly sadly: "Grace heard that you didn't come back, so she decided to stay there to sharpen her strength, saying that she wanted to avenge you." ”

"As for why we came here, it's easy to say, because of the cooperation agreement with Mountain Flame City, so the high-level decided to withdraw their troops from here and concentrate their forces to attack Castlevania, leaving only a small part of their troops here to garrison. And because the leader was seriously injured in the underground world to cover Lord Holt, he transferred all our squadrons from above, and did not participate in any battles for the time being. ”

(Avenge me?) ）

The young man's heart warmed, and he immediately asked, "Is the head injured?" What is the injury that even Claire can't heal? ”

Pilson sighed and replied, "It's bad luck to say." At that time, when the powerhouses of Night City were chasing and killing the Mentor of Silvermoon, they accidentally ran into the four of them who were fleeing, and those powerhouses saw through the fluctuations of Holt's spiritual power that they belonged to the same force as Lord Silvermoon - well, Holt and Lord Silvermoon were practicing the same spiritual construction method, and they happened to encounter them as powerhouses of Night City who were proficient in soul magic, causing them to attack the four of them regardless of their identities.

In the end, Kelvin escaped by protecting Howard from a treasure given by his mother, Lord Silvermoon, and Lord Hawkins nearly died...... But don't worry, the squadron leader is out of danger now, and now he is recuperating in the city lord's mansion, and we will go to see him when his cultivation is over. ”

Herman was relieved at this time, and then he was surprised again: "Lord Silvermoon? Are you saying that Chief Kelvin's mother also went back then? He had heard Hawkins say that Kelvin's mother was none other than the Monk Teacher, the Grand Wizard Venanica Silvermoon. didn't expect that this strong man would also secretly follow in that mission.

Pilson nodded, "Yes, otherwise the team mission to Nightcity would have failed." I heard from the brothers who escaped that although there are few wizards in the Witch Hidden Order, everyone is surrounded by a large number of slaves, which is simply the most terrifying crowd tactic, if it weren't for Lord Silvermoon, who is also proficient in soul magic, the two teams probably won't even be able to enter the city gate. ”

"And this mentor?"

Pilson shook his head: "In the end, we didn't see her come back, and there was no news from Fort Edmund." ”

"This is a domain ......"

Herman had been in contact with several realm people, and he knew the horror of these people, but he didn't expect that even such a strong person would be lost in the dark world. The dark world is really terrifying, no wonder even the Four Pillars God dare not set foot in it.
