Chapter 20: The Northern Fortress
Chapter 20 The Northern Fortress
"I can help you too, smelt or something." Zhao Xinyue whispered.
"As long as you are safe and sound, I will be able to show my skills, all, follow Xiao Li to raise my strength first." Yun Luo chatted with her and talked about the fact that she had stepped into the Innocent Imperial City, and there was an unspeakable downturn in the entire city.
After saying goodbye to Zhao Xinyue, Yun Luo went straight to the city lord's mansion, because he had been here last time, all the guards did not stop him, and when he first stepped into the main mansion, Guan Chengshan made a pot of tea and lay on the rattan chair to rest: "Look at your appearance, you should have successfully transferred to the city, and it was only a day, it was really terrible." ”
Yun Luo took off his mask: "Aren't you worried about the situation in the Innocent Imperial City now?" ”
Guan Chengshan smiled leisurely, drank tea and said: "It's just a beast tide, the beast king can't help me, just with its remnants of the defeated army, it can't become a climate at all." ”
Yun Luo squinted, it seemed that Guan Chengshan and the Beast King should be old rivals, but he really didn't expect it: "In addition to the beast tide, there is also the tide of necromancy." ”
"Poof! What the! Tide of Necromancy! This really caught Guan Chengshan by surprise, and the tea in his mouth squirted out.
"That's right, I just came back from the Night Forest, where mutations have begun to take place, and even the walking corpses are constantly appearing, and it was there that I killed the son of the Beastmaster." Yun Luo did not shy away from speaking bluntly.
“…… I didn't think you would have such skills, that rabbit cub could run beyond my reach, and you could cut it under the sword. Guan Chengshan was quite surprised, and then realized that the key problem was not this: "No wonder the Beast King will come to attack the Innocent Imperial City, it turns out that he chose the time of the Tide of Necromancy, which is really cunning." ”
"That's all I just came to you to ask if there's anything I can do to help." Yun Luo rubbed his temples.
"Since it involves the tide of necromancy, it's not a trivial matter, Luoyun, would you like to help me go to the major capitals?"
"Whether to accept the task 'Ordered in Danger', the task reward, the position of the disaster leader, and a growth pearl."
"Of course, it is my duty to do it." Yun Luo accepted the task.
Guan Chengshan took out a scroll of tattoos engraved with runes: "You can use this thing to go to the Northern Fortress, Ten Thousand Beasts and Wild Goose City, Water and Fire Capital Domain, Jiuli Netherworld, you only have four days, how many people you can invite to help in the war depends on your ability, I, as the city lord, can't go out to ask for help at this time, otherwise the capital will be in chaos, don't leak the matter of the tide of death in the Innocent Imperial City until the last day, remember, let's go, this tattoo book can be used as a token of our Innocent Imperial City." ”
Yun Luo took the tattoo book, and a prompt sounded in his mind: "Please choose to teleport to ......"
"Northern Fortress!"
After Yun Luo finished speaking, the tattoo book unfolded, quickly wound him, and emitted a white light, and when he came back to his senses, he found himself in an old house full of cobwebs, and there was a formation set by someone at his feet.
The Northern Fortress, as its name suggests, guards the northernmost part of the continent, where in addition to facing the ferocious beast tide, there are also evil forces of foreign races, out of the old house, as far as the eye can see, there is no player on the street, this is a city that has not been explored by the player's footprints.
There are neat and orderly guards patrolling the streets, Yun Luo's appearance did not have any impact on them, and you can see the most conspicuous general's mansion along the road, which is heavily guarded, no less than the palace, Yun Luo has not approached, just to observe and was stopped by a group of guards: "You, what are you doing?" ”
"Well, I'm looking for the city lord." Yun Luo raised the tattoo book in his hand, and the guards looked at each other and gave him a go, among which the leader personally led him in, of course, in Yun Luo's opinion, he just didn't worry about him: "Don't look around after entering, our city lord has a spiritual cleanliness, even if you wear a mask, he can feel your gaze." ”
Yun Luo nodded hurriedly, and in his heart he labeled the city lord of the northern capital with a strange label, thinking about it, he has been defending against foreign enemies in such a remote place, and he has been contaminated with the aura of killing all year round, and some cleanliness seems to be no big deal.
"That's it in front, Murong City Lord is basically resting near noon, don't be too rude after you go in." Once again, the captain of the guards emphasized.
"Eh, won't you go in with me?" Yun Luo could see that there seemed to be retreat in the guard's eyes.
"This ...... I...... Forget it! "In the blink of an eye, the captain of the guard is gone, and his speed is a few points faster than the son of the beastmaster, could it be that the lord of this fortress is some kind of strange devil?
Looking at the closed and tall main mansion, Yun Luo was ready to die generously, only to push open the door little by little and walk in, greeted by a light fragrance of flowers, Yun Luo couldn't tell what kind of flower it was, it seemed to be mixed with more than a dozen kinds of flowers, walking into the mansion, the path ahead was a high platform built up of steps, all kinds of flowers opened along the road, on the top seat of the high platform, quietly sat a silver-haired royal sister with her wrists resting, and the bright red flowers on the other side of her throne were quietly blooming.
Different from the picture in her heart, the powerful contrast made Yun Luo's heart beat faster, as if it was because of something mixed in the flowers, which almost made Yun Luo unable to stabilize her state of mind, and when she looked up at the silver-haired royal sister again, she had already opened her eyes, and the powerful aura exuded from her eyes made Yun Luo, a person like Yun Luo, who claimed to be unparalleled in swordsmanship, also fall to a new level, Yun Luo saw the endless blood prison in her eyes, and the kind of fear that penetrated the human heart made Yun Luo feel difficult to breathe for a moment.
"The little guy from the Imperial City, what's the matter?" The majestic voice of the queen made Yun Luo feel more and more humble, is this the city lord of the Northern Fortress!
forcibly suppressed the cowardice in his heart, and straightened his body: "I am here on behalf of Guan Chengshan, because there is a tide of beasts and necromancy in the Innocent Imperial City, so I want to go north to ask for help." ”
The silver-haired royal sister closed her eyes: "This king likes to speak with strength, if you can take the three moves I made with my eyes closed, I will send troops to help." ”
Yun Luo's expression was sharp, it seemed that he was underestimated, and Jiuxiao came to his hand: "Okay, just as you said, come on." ”
As soon as Sister Murong moved her fingers, Yun Luo felt that the wind in front of her was extinguished, and she raised her sword and swept away, the blade of the sword collided with a silver needle that shimmered with starlight, and the strength from the sword body made Yun Luo exert enough strength, and finally gritted her teeth to block this silver needle: "Damn, this is completely the suppression of strength, and without internal strength, you are not an opponent at all." ”
Yun Luo didn't think about borrowing the attributes of the game from the beginning, because his current level was too low, and the strength he possessed was not worth mentioning at all, even if he used the ingenuity of his sword skills, it would have to be when he was only a few points weaker, and Murong City Lord's strength was beyond his thoughts, and all his skills were vulnerable in the face of absolute strength!
