Chapter 54: The City of the Free
"Nie Li?"
At first hearing this name, Rob's footsteps froze forward, and then he turned his head to stare at Ye Zhen and said, "Why, even you don't know his whereabouts?" β
Rob's gaze was like that of an eagle vulture, staring at Ye Scar uncomfortably.
"I don't know, I really don't know his whereabouts." Ye Zhen Zhengse said. "Whether the marshal believes it or not, Zai Xia has only seen Nie Li's two apprentices, and as for his own whereabouts, Zai Xia has no idea. If you really know, why bother to ask you about the marshal? β
"That's weird..."Hearing this, Rob's face soothed a little. In the past twenty years, His Majesty has almost sent countless elite scouts scattered around the world to inquire about his whereabouts, and these professional scouts have traveled to almost every corner of the continent, but without exception, these scouts have found nothing, Nie Li seems to have disappeared out of thin air, and has never appeared on the continent again. β
"I see..."Ye Zhen's expression looked very lonely. Thanks to the marshal for explaining, it seems that there is really no hope of finding him. β
Walking in the splendid palace, Ye Zhen couldn't help but glance at the tall and magnificent banquet hall, the style of the rebuilt banquet hall is still the same, but it contains a trace of desolate atmosphere, which makes people sigh that the years are like a shuttle.
"Not necessarily." Rob said noncommittally. "Although Ben Shuai is not 100% sure, he is ninety percent sure that Nie Li should not be in any country on the mainland, and after the destruction of his family, he must have given up on the country."
Rob gave Ye Scar a deep look, his expression thoughtful.
"Not in any country on the continent?" Ye Zhen's eyes flickered, and he couldn't wait to ask, "Marshal, where do you think he will be?" β
"According to Ben Shuai's speculation, it is very likely that Nie Li will go to a certain place on the mainland alone after the assassination incident that year." Rob paused. "That place, there is no war, there is no state, if he is still alive, that place is the place he is most likely to choose to spend the rest of his life."
"What the hell is this place?" Leaf Scar couldn't wait any longer, so he grabbed Rob's arm and stopped him.
Unexpectedly, let Ye Zhen be presumptuous, the majestic Rob did not resist, after stopping, he quickly turned his face that was not angry and arrogant, looked at Ye Zhen and said word by word: "Freedom-by-of-city-"
"Free City!"
Hearing this, Ye Zhen's eyes lit up, and he was immediately overjoyed.
The name Liberty City is not unfamiliar to him, and from the official background of the game, all players know that there is such a place in the game that symbolizes freedom, kindness, and happiness.
As we all know, this city was built by tens of millions of civilian soldiers who were war-torn back then, and after it was completed, not to mention the city lord and king, there was not even a city guard, which can be described as the purest pure land in the Yilan continent.
It is rumored that the Liberty City is so large that it covers an area no less than the capitals of the four great powers.
The so-called five main cities in the game, in addition to the capitals of the four countries, the remaining one is the free city in the middle of the continent.
It's just that since the game was opened, Ye Zhen has not heard of players entering and leaving the Freedom City, and he can't directly teleport to the Freedom City from the various post stations, this main city has long been forgotten by the players as if it never existed.
"May I ask the marshal, how should the city of freedom go?" Ye Zhen asked quietly, although he also knew that the original civilian army divided 1/10 of each of the borders of the four major countries, connected them into a piece of the center of the continent, and established the City of Freedom in it.
However, the continent is vast, and if you look for it like a dull fly, it will only be in vain.
And Rob in front of him, as the generalissimo who has swept half the continent, will definitely know all about these well-known cities, and the road map will definitely be there.
"Don't waste any more timeβ" Rob shook his head. "As early as twenty years ago, the Lord God issued an edict to close the City of Freedom, even if you know the location of the City of Freedom, it will not help if you go, it has been shrouded by the rules of the Lord God, and those inside cannot come out, and those outside cannot enter."
Hearing this, Ye Zhen suddenly turned into foam like a deflated ball. "Marshal, do you know why the Lord God wants to close the City of Freedom?"
"How can this Ben Shuai know-young man, you still think more about your own situation, Ben Shuai looks at the face of you as Xiao Ya's friend, and solemnly reminds you, don't underestimate Ling Tian, the old immortal faint king, although he is mediocre and incompetent, he has been doing nothing all his life... However, the protection of himself is arranged very tightly, even if it is a thatched house, there will be more than a dozen first-class masters guarding it..."Rob recalled. "Back then, Ben Shuai led a million lions to surround Ling Tiancheng, and after a long period of attack, he sent three waves of first-class assassins to infiltrate the palace to assassinate Ling Biao - as a result, none of these three waves of more than ten top masters came back to restore his life. It's not that Ben Shuai looks down on you, with your current strength, if you want to assassinate Ling Biao, it's still far away! β
Rob stared at the young man in front of him, looking like you were crossing the river with mud and couldn't protect yourself.
"Thank you Marshal for reminding me, I know." Hearing this, Ye Zhen's expression froze, and he was silent at the moment.
He also knows that if he wants to assassinate the lord of a country, it is not as simple as assassinating a top player. The strength of a powerful NPC can never be compared with a player, let alone an emperor, which is an existence that can use the power of the entire country. For example, Moroni, if he wanted to deal with Ye Zhen, he only needed one order, and Ye Zhen would definitely be burned out and run into walls everywhere in Loulan.
Yes, what Rob just said was definitely not sensational, but should have really happened.
The atmosphere in the air was a little silent, neither of them spoke, Ye Zhen followed Rob around the palace, and ten minutes later, he finally saw the heavily guarded palace gate.
"That's it, Ben Shuai has to go back to report to His Majesty, young man, do it yourself." Rob gave Leaf Scar a deep look again.
"Marshal Xie reminds that there will be a period later!" Ye Zhen didn't twist either, and as soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the palace gate, and then went straight to the direction of the slum in Loulan City!
Attia had said that it only took a week for the golden armor to be sewn up, but now that nearly a month had passed, the legendary-level armor had been waiting for him for more than half a month.
