A sneeze destroys a magical civilization

The royal city, Rorent, stands on a hill to the north of the capital, Li Yestije. It is a typical post-medieval castle-style palace, surrounded by towering walls and spires.

Although it is nominally part of the royal capital, it is actually an independent area located on the outskirts of the city.

It is similar to the Royal Palace of the Seven Kingdoms in A Song of Ice and Fire - the Red Castle. They are both built in the most easily defended and difficult to attack place in the area.

The steep hills and the protection of the city walls can be used as a final defensive stronghold to fight the enemy even if a war breaks out.

Its military value is almost as important as its political value.

Even if civilians come close to take a look, they will be expelled or even arrested immediately.

That is to say, the kingdom has abolished the decadent and backward slavery system in recent years. Otherwise, in the past, there was a high probability that people would be demoted as slaves.

The area of ​​this royal city is not large, and the perimeter of the outer wall is only about 1,400 meters.

In the central area surrounded by walls and spires, there is an exquisite and luxurious palace called "Francia".

It is the place where kings, princes and princesses live daily, and it is also the office place where nobles hold meetings to discuss state affairs.

There are not only exquisite and beautiful gardens, sculptures, fountains, and chandeliers, but also marble columns, arches and floor-to-ceiling glass windows inlaid with gold foil.

Instead of ugly rocks, the ceiling is covered with murals and reliefs.

Even from a modern perspective, this place is countless times better than any top-notch mansion owned by a rich man.

Except for the lack of modern electrical equipment, the materials, decoration, and art style are all top-notch.

Zuo Si looked around with interest and commented in a slightly playful tone: "As a country that is going downhill and on the verge of division and collapse, is this palace a little too luxurious?

Didn't it mean that the royal family only controls about 30% of the land, and the remaining 70% is in the hands of the nobles?

Then why do they still invest so much money every year to maintain this meaningless palace instead of using it to carry out a series of reforms in the primitive and backward politics, military, and economy?

It would be good to at least train and hire some bureaucrats who are loyal to the royal family. "

Shane VII smiled and shrugged his shoulders and replied: "It's simple, because this country is rotten from top to bottom.

After more than two hundred years of peaceful development, the Vansef family, as a royal family, has lost its previous control over the nobility.

Among them, just a few big nobles occupy the same land, population and army as the royal family, while the remaining nobles occupy the remaining 40%.

In other words, the nobility accounts for a full 70% of the country's main power, and it is already in a state of being too big to lose.

The current king, Rambusa III, is a typical mediocre monarch who is too benevolent and seriously lacks strong political skills.

Perhaps as an ordinary person or an ordinary noble, his kindness is a virtue.

But for a ruler of a country that is in decline, it is a very fatal flaw.

Under Rambusa III's indulgence, his sons were fighting among themselves for the right to inherit the throne.

The nobles also took this opportunity to join the ranks, hoping to use the princes to benefit their families more.

In other words, the country is currently in the midst of a deep political division.

The only little princess Lana who has political talent, can provide a lot of correct advice, and even save the country that is heading towards collapse and destruction, has no qualifications to inherit the throne.

Not even her suggestions would be adopted.

But on the other hand, the rival Emperor of the Bahas Empire, Gilknifer, known as the Blood Emperor, was willing to spend a lot of effort to find out what Princess Lana said every day and what kind of things she provided to the kingdom. He made suggestions and then copied them and issued decrees in the empire he ruled.

The result is that the Empire continues to grow stronger under Lana's advice, while the Kingdom grows weaker.

This phenomenon is interesting, isn't it? "

There is no doubt that because Xia En VII was originally the monarch of a huge empire and also accepted many modern political thoughts and concepts obtained from Zuo Si, he could be said to have a good understanding of the situation of the two human countries in the world.

To put it bluntly, the empire achieved centralization through ruthless political purges, power seizures, and assassinations.

It also establishes an effective bureaucratic system through centralization, greatly improves social organizational capabilities, and then implements drastic reforms, ultimately completing the efficient use of allocable resources.

Looking back at the kingdom, first of all, the enfeoffment system will deduct big points in terms of resource allocation and organizational mobilization capabilities.

What's more, the royal family has lost control of the nobles.

The mediocre king only thinks about how to maintain this mess all day long, and he has no courage to reform even though he would rather shed a river of blood and kill all the nobles in the country.

Not to mention anything else, the extent of his incompetence can be seen just because Warrior Captain Gazef was plotted against by nobles and foreign countries, and he did not get angry because of this and set off a political liquidation.

You must know that he is the supreme commander of the "King's Guards"!

The nobles all wanted to put their hands into the guards who ensured the king's safety. Any monarch with a little vigilance and political awareness would realize the seriousness of the problem.

To put it mildly, this was an attempt to further increase his influence over the king;

To put it more seriously, this is an attempt to oust the king or even replace the royal family as the new master of the country.

What was Rambusa III's reaction?

He actually didn't react at all and just tolerated it as if nothing had happened.

Please!

You are the king of a country!

Even if the tethered dog is there, if it finds someone intruding into the territory or bullying its little brother, it will show its teeth and bark twice.

Thinking of this, Zuo Si's mouth turned up slightly with a playful smile and he sighed: "Yes, it is indeed very interesting.

I can't wait to see the look on His Majesty's face when he discovers his little daughter's true identity.

Shock?

fear?

incredible?

I'm afraid he will never believe until his death that the usually gentle, sensible, and intelligent Golden Princess hides an extremely twisted, evil, and dark crazy soul under the mask of hypocrisy.

After all, as a monarch, incompetence is the biggest sin.

Compared with the indecisive and benevolent Rambusa III, the Blood Emperor who killed his brother, brother, mother, confiscated a large amount of noble property and land, and was also very keen on pleasure was a qualified king. "

"Hahahaha! I agree with your point of view. If one day I want to take action against the Empire, I will consider sparing his life."

Xia En VII couldn't help laughing.

The two of them walked freely in the palace as if they were in no one's land, and no one around them, including maids, nobles, and guards, seemed to notice them.

The reason is very simple!

These people were unintentionally affected by spiritual magic.

Since the kingdom has a deep tradition and culture of knights, there is a deep-rooted martial spirit from top to bottom. It is believed that a real warrior is a warrior who rides a war horse and fights fiercely. He lacks the most basic understanding of magical knowledge and power.

The entire country's ruling class despises the power of magic (mainly because it is difficult for humans to master high-level magic). Although there are institutions such as the Mage Guild, they have not formed their own official legion of spellcasters.

In other words, the entire palace is completely defenseless against those who master spiritual or illusion magic.

For spellcasters of the caliber of Zuo Si and Xia En VII, it was no different than visiting their own backyard.

Occasionally, when passing by, you can see some nobles hiding in corners to exchange interests, and some young and handsome knights, soldiers and maids making out.

In short, there is a very obvious lack of dominance here.

It seemed that no one paid attention to the old king who had ruled this country for nearly forty years.

There is no doubt that this is a complete and irrefutable colossal failure.

However, as the two of them entered the palace of Golden Princess Lana, the situation finally changed.

At least the guards here didn't dare to fool around with the maids, and they still acted like they were loyal to their duties.

In the open space in the front garden, a young blond boy was standing at the gate wearing expensive silver full-body armor, looking straight ahead motionlessly.

"Loyal Dog" Clem, that's his name.

And protecting and guarding Princess Lana is the only meaning of his life.

Zuo Si has always felt that Lana's love for Clem should be closer to the twisted emotions between people and pets, rather than between people.

Without disturbing the poor child, the two opened the door and walked in.

At this moment, the Golden Princess was sitting at the table, admiring the scenery outside the window and opening a book. Her blue eyes were filled with depth and coldness that did not match her age.

You don't need to ask to know that this is the sequelae of the last time you met Xia En VII and witnessed the other party's terrifying magical power.

As a genius who claims to be well-informed, possesses wisdom beyond ordinary people, and even treats everyone around him as a fool, she understands for the first time that there is a strong person in this world that she can never defeat with wisdom.

As long as the opponent is willing, he can even turn the entire royal capital or even the kingdom into a scorched earth without any vegetation at any time, and kill all living people within hundreds or even thousands of kilometers.

That kind of huge pressure that cannot be described in words will make Lana feel trembling, fear and despair from the bottom of her heart whenever she thinks about it.

The most terrifying thing is that according to what the other party said, he is just a simple executor, and there is an even more terrifying planner behind it.

These days, although the Golden Princess still maintains her usual gentle and kind smile on the surface, she is extremely nervous and irritable inside.

For this reason, he even did not hesitate to provoke conflicts between the nobles, watching the two great nobles bite each other like mad dogs, and even hired bandits to destroy each other's industries, in order to relieve his anxiety.

Just when the girl picked up the tea cup and was about to take a sip of hot tea to relax, she suddenly saw the closed door suddenly pushed open, but Climb who was guarding the door did not react at all.

But just a second later, she understood the reason and quickly stood up and bowed gracefully to the two uninvited distinguished guests.

"Long time no see, dear Lana, how do you think about my last proposal?"

Xia En VII closed the door and asked with a half-smile.

The Golden Princess spread her hands with a fake smile: "You asked a completely unnecessary question. After all, I don't seem to have any room for rejection or choice, right? By the way, who is this adult who is coming with you? ? Could he be..."

Xia En VII responded calmly: "Yes! He is the mastermind behind all this, and he is also your true master. No matter what you really desire in your heart, he can satisfy you."

Hearing these words, Lana's eyes suddenly flashed with strong curiosity, and she began to look up and down at this very young-looking human male who was close at hand. It took a full minute before she squeezed out the words she thought were the most attractive. Smiling, he tried in a low voice: "Great master, how should I call you?"

"You can call me Soth."

Zuo Si reported his name very simply and at the same time looked at the princess who was only sixteen years old and had a lovely appearance.

By the way, he used the magic of reading thoughts and memories to uncover all the secrets hidden in his heart.

The result was pretty much as expected. Lana, like Isadora, was a typical super genius with explosive intelligence from birth.

When he was less than ten years old, he had already seen through the dark side of human nature and the dirty political games played by adults, so he began to darken uncontrollably and turned into a complete monster.

The only difference is that a strong sense of self allowed Isadora to awaken the power of the psion.

In addition, he met Zuo Si relatively early, so he embarked on another path.

But Lana was not so lucky. Instead, she went further and further in manipulating and using others, and finally became what she is now.

Especially because she couldn't find a similar relationship, she felt very lonely and lonely inside. She often felt that everyone around her except herself was a fool, an idiot, and an inferior creature.

As for the twisted "love" for Clem, it was just to find a spiritual sustenance and "adopted" pet in this state of mind.

Lana obviously didn't know that in just one face-to-face meeting, someone had completed a comprehensive psychological and mental assessment of herself. She raised her head and asked with interest: "I heard Lord Xia En VII mention that you have Nearly omnipotent power, is this true?”

"Omnipotence is a bit exaggerated, but it's okay to fulfill the little wish in your mind." Zuo Si replied meaningfully.

"Oh? Do you know what I want?"

Lana was visibly taken aback.

Because in this mutual tentative exchange, she has always been the one who takes the initiative and has the upper hand.

But now, the situation seems to be reversed.

"From what you have done before, and how you secretly showed your talents to the Empire and the Blood Emperor, it is not difficult to guess that your appeal is nothing more than two points.

First, improve your own value in the eyes of others, and use this as a basis to ensure your own life safety and the current favorable living conditions;

Second, ensure the safety of the puppy at the door, and hope to be with him forever.

In addition to the above two points, I guess you should also hope that you can have a longer lifespan, as well as eternal youthful beauty and a never-aging body and brain.

If possible, you hope to change your race and become a life form that can surpass humans.

Because you are tired of dealing with the superficial and stupid nobles around you, and long for some degree of relief and transcendence.

So what, am I right? "

As Zuo Si blurted out these words, the original disguised smile on the golden princess's face disappeared instantly, replaced by the panic and panic in her heart.

But soon she forced herself to calm down and asked: "How can you be sure that these are what I want? Can't I have greater ambitions and desire more power?"

"More ambition and power?

Haha, sorry, I didn't see that from your behavior.

You have to understand that all a person's thoughts and intentions will eventually be more or less transformed into actual actions.

For example, people with greater ambitions find it difficult to be content with the status quo, while people who crave power tend to do whatever it takes.

But you don't.

Otherwise, with the reputation and beauty you have deliberately created, you can definitely stand on the side of the nobles and find a way to marry a powerful noble as soon as possible.

Then he used his clever mind to stir up disputes and conflicts within this noble family, causing them all to kill each other.

In this way, you only need to get pregnant and give birth to a child before killing your husband, and you can reasonably and legally control all the land, property and army of the noble.

The next step is to use her status and beauty as a princess to continue to seduce other nobles and build an alliance based on this.

When the time is right, he will kill the king, and then put the shit basin on the heads of the two brothers, which will trigger a tragic civil war.

When all the old king's heirs die in the war, you and your children will be able to ascend the throne legitimately.

At that time, we will take advantage of the time when the nobles are severely weakened to reduce their territories and follow the example of the empire to establish a centralized country.

During this period, in order to prevent the empire from taking advantage of the situation, you need to continue to show your kindness to the Blood Emperor.

Even if necessary, he would sell his sex to give birth to a child with the other party's blood, promising that he would merge the kingdom into the empire through marriage after taking control of the kingdom.

Use the time gained through constant deception and delay to complete the reshaping of the entire country.

Finally, they would turn around and use this heir with imperial royal blood to make a fuss, such as hiring assassins to kill the Blood Emperor and start a succession war.

Look, this is what an ambitious princess with a strong pursuit of power should do.

So put aside those unnecessary pretense and let’s talk openly and honestly. "

After that, Zuo Si walked straight to the table and sat down.

There is no doubt that the scene just described is a usurpation plan that can be used directly. As long as it is done properly, the success rate can be said to be quite high.

Because Lana knew that many people among the nobles coveted their beauty and were eager to use their wisdom to develop the family's territory.

As long as she is willing to give up her position as a royal family and open her thighs, she can easily make the young children of the most powerful families in the kingdom kneel under their pomegranate skirts and become obedient puppets.

At that time, if we use a little more tricks to let them stage the famous scene of "a loving father and a filial son," it will not be a problem to take control of two or three big noble families.

As for the Blood Emperor of the empire, who was praised as wise by people, he might be a pretty good ruler in the eyes of others.

But in Lana's eyes, she was just a slightly smarter mortal, and she wasn't fooled around by herself.

As long as she is willing, she can make the other party fall into a prepared trap at any time.

But the reason why she didn't do this is very simple, that is, Lana saw through that the nature of the empire's invasion of the kingdom was not actually a problem between the two countries, but a change in the attitude of the Slian Theocracy.

The latter possesses the overwhelming and strongest power of the human race, which cannot be matched by kingdoms or empires at all.

Therefore, she never paid attention to the throne of the king or emperor from beginning to end, but set her sights on a higher position.

Boring worldly power is nothing compared to the powerful who can truly destroy heaven and earth.

After a brief trial, Lana undoubtedly knew that she was completely seen through by the young man in front of her. She could only sigh slightly and said in a slightly helpless tone: "Okay, I admit that you are right, those things before were me Want to get.

But I have a question, how on earth do you know this?

Are you also good at analyzing other people's thoughts and personalities through observation, analysis and deconstruction? "

Zuo Si smiled and shrugged: "Half and half.

Psychological analysis and assessment have always been my areas of expertise.

All that's left is to read your thoughts and memories through magic.

In front of me, unless you have absolute spiritual protection, there is no secret. "

"Read thoughts and memories?!"

A look of horror suddenly appeared on Lana's face, and she retreated uncontrollably, almost hitting a sculpture placed on the table next to her.

For her, who plays a role-playing game every day, having her memories and thoughts exposed in front of others is simply more terrifying than being naked without clothes.

"Don't make such a fuss. Do you think I didn't use the Thought and Memory Detection spell when we first met?"

Shane VII made another stab at the critical moment.

This made the Golden Princess couldn't help but tremble, and she crossed her arms with her arms as if she had been violated.

If possible, she would rather be physically violated than be mentally violated like now.

But there is no way, people have to bow their heads under the eaves.

The girl didn't think she could defeat these two strong men who came and went freely in the palace as if they were no one.

So after a brief silence, she asked again: "Lord Soth, you just said that you can turn me into other non-human races, right?"

"Yes. Not just you, but anyone else you choose.

And you can freely choose between more than a dozen races.

For example, demons, demons, vampires, various elves, werewolves, celestial beings, demons, human-shaped aberrations, dragon-like creatures, etc.

If you like, it can also fuse you and the puppy outside from the physical to the spiritual level, and you will never be able to separate. "

As he spoke, Zuo Si created a large illusion of different creatures out of thin air.

Lana was obviously attracted by the shapes of these creatures. Her eyes widened and she occasionally stuck out her tongue and licked her lips. Finally, she raised her head and asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Is there any difference between devils, demons and demons?"

Zuo Si explained with a smile: "Of course.

Although they are both extremely evil.

But demons are more inclined to chaos, which is to do whatever they want without restraint.

Demons are neutral, and the rules of behavior mainly depend on whether they are profitable.

Devils tend to be lawful and believe that rules and laws are sacred. You can exploit loopholes but cannot blatantly destroy them.

If I had to choose one among these three, I personally recommend choosing the devil. "

"Why?"

Lana frowned subconsciously.

“Because I am the lord of hell and the great devil in one form, I can give you a little extra boost in this regard.

What's more, I think your personality and behavior are extremely close to the devil.

After all, the premise for something like wisdom to work is that everyone is abiding by a certain order and rules.

If you don't comply, then no matter how smart you are, you won't be able to resist a sudden stabbing dagger. "

As he spoke, Zuo Si's body began to expand rapidly, and after a while, he showed his terrifying devil form.

Just the terrifying majesty released unintentionally, as well as the evil aura that is enough to cause an ordinary person to have an instant mental breakdown, gave the whole room an effect similar to the five-ring magic [Evil Residence].

However, Lana is obviously not an ordinary person, but a genius and madman who has been completely twisted and sick in her heart for a long time, and does not even regard herself as a human being.

Instead of showing fear, she was trembling with excitement. She endured the physical discomfort and stretched out her hand to gently touch the scales, tail, claws and dragon wings covering Zuo Si's body.

Even though his palms were burned by the residual temperature from the hell flames, electrostatically charged by the blue dragon, he twitched violently, and became incontinent, he did not flinch.

Overwhelming power!

A shuddering horror!

A mind as smart as yourself, or even smarter than yourself!

Because at this moment, Her Royal Highness the Golden Princess felt that she had finally found the "similar person" she had dreamed of.

I was born to be a devil!

She kept repeating this sentence in her heart.

[Cure fatal injuries]!

Zuo Si directly released a four-ring magic spell, which healed the opponent's burnt and electric-injured body, especially his two blackened arms.

Feeling the warmth brought by the positive energy filling her body, Lana had tears of joy on her face and said in an extremely pious tone: "Master! My supreme master!

Please grant me the glory of being a devil!

I'm willing to do anything for you!

Even if it means killing his father with his own hands and destroying this decadent country. "

Seeing the golden princess' reaction as if she had found a blood relative, Zuo Si's mouth twitched slightly uncontrollably.

Although he has long known that the other person's brain circuit is not normal, this is the first time he has encountered a mortal who is willing to mentally identify himself as a devil.

"Here, sign this contract first. When you complete the task, you will naturally be qualified to become a member of the devil."

Zuo Si created a hell contract that smelled of sulfur out of thin air and handed it over.

Lana quickly took it and glanced at it twice, confirming the content of the task she had to complete, then cut her finger with a dagger and signed her full name at the bottom of the contract.

moment!

The parchment scroll spontaneously ignited out of thin air with a bang, and soon burned into ashes flying all over the sky.

Her soul was also marked with a mark of corruption that only the devil could recognize.

After briefly calming down her excitement, the golden princess did not care that most of her exquisite dress was burned, and the entire skin of her back, chest, buttocks and thighs were exposed to the air. She immediately knelt on the ground and vowed: "Please rest assured, Master, I will definitely complete the deployment as soon as possible and make the entire kingdom yours."

"Don't be too anxious. Everything will happen step by step according to the plan of Xia En VII. In addition, considering your lack of self-protection strength, I decided to give you a little bit of necessary strength first."

As the last word blurted out, Zuo Si stretched out his fingers like dragon claws, gently pressed on the opponent's chest, and cut the white skin to inject the power from hell into it.

Not sure whether it was due to pain or excitement, Lana's body was trembling slightly as she watched the scarlet blood beads slowly slide down the central axis, eventually forming exquisite magic lines near her ribs and navel.

After everything was completed, she felt as if a power that she had never felt before emerged from her body.

Just a second later, a ball of cold black flames spurted out from the palm of his hand.

boom!

If it were in the continent of Faerûn, anyone with a little bit of magic knowledge would immediately confirm that this thing is the famous "Magic Flame".

A signature skill of the Warlock profession, it is also a terrifying and terrifying magical flame.

You don't need to ask to know that Lana has now become a high-level warlock, and a large amount of evil and taboo magic knowledge is filling her brain.

As the great devil, Zuo Si is her "sect master".

After realizing what kind of magical power she had gained in an instant, Lana immediately picked up the claw that could easily crush her into meat and kissed it wildly, her eyes filled with fanatical obsession and admiration.

At this moment, the loneliness that had troubled her since she was sensible completely disappeared, replaced by faith, extremely pious faith.

Although Zuo Si wasn't sure whether this was because his physique of attracting bad women had come into play again, or whether it should be considered that he had successfully grasped the weakness of the other party's mind.

But all in all the results are quite satisfactory.

With Lana as the mole, it should be very smooth to completely take over the entire kingdom.

When the time comes, using a population of nearly 10 million as a cover and sneaking in hundreds of thousands of players, Shane VII will be able to start unscrupulous wars and disrupt the world.

On the way back, Zuo Si also introduced the military merit conferment system to Xia En VII.

He plans to apply it directly after he captures the kingdom, stimulating the enthusiasm of the people at the bottom of the kingdom to change their own class through external expansion, turning it into a war machine that crazily exports war to the outside world.

…

At the same time, the village of Karn was far away on the border of the kingdom.

The villagers who had narrowly escaped death were building a simple temple under the command of Archbishop Jack, and were praying in a precise manner according to the steps.

I saw them all staring solemnly at the statue of the god molded by magic in front of them, firmly remembering every movement and every prayer.

After all, the original four gods of water, fire, earth, and wind in the kingdom have been worshiped for so many years without any movement.

But the Phoenix God had just seen it with his own eyes, so his attitude was naturally different.

Gazef stood watching all this from a distance. After about two or three minutes, he couldn't help but ask: "Where does this Phoenix God come from? Why have I never heard of it before?"

"Your Excellency, Warrior Commander, this world is very big and vast, and humans occupy only a small part of the land. If you have the opportunity to walk outside, you will naturally come into contact with a lot of information that you didn't know before."

The female player who was in charge of the negotiation said half-truthfully.

"So you are from a place outside the kingdom? Is it the Holy Kingdom, the Dragon Kingdom or the Review Kingdom?"

Gazef subconsciously glanced at the players around him from the corner of his eye, especially those who took off their helmets to reveal their true colors.

After the battle, he noticed that these adventurers were not entirely human, but had many "hybrids".

As a kingdom composed almost entirely of humans, hybrids like this basically do not exist, so they can only come from elsewhere.

"Hey! Sorry, this is a secret."

The female player pretended to be mysterious and blinked, and easily defused the opponent's temptation.

Just when Gazef was about to ask a few more questions, a kingdom soldier came running from a distance and whispered something into his ear.

His expression suddenly changed slightly, and he immediately said with a wry smile: "Sorry, I have some urgent matters and need to leave immediately.

Regarding the previous transaction, if you take time, come to the capital to find me.

I promise to personally teach you how to learn and master martial arts. "

"No problem! If we go to the royal capital, we will definitely look for you. Remember to treat us then."

Another familiar player smiled and waved.

"Hahahaha! No problem! I'll treat you to the best tavern and have a good meal."

With hearty laughter, Gazef got on his horse and led his men towards the border fortress - E-Rantel.

When they gradually faded away and turned into small black dots, several players gathered together and began to discuss their harvest.

"How about it? How many levels have your team members upgraded on average since they came to this world?"

"About two to three levels. Although there is no way to compare with Jack and Wu Sheng, the two guys who have had bad luck, but overall it is quite good. At least there are enough monsters and enemies in this world, and the levels are It’s generally relatively high.”

"Agree! Magical power is ubiquitous in this world. I have found a lot of interesting gadgets from the corpses of those members of the Sunshine Scripture. I guess I can fetch them at a good price when I take them back to the floating city."

"Yes. We have collected a lot of such things, and we are just waiting to open the fixed portal."

"However, compared to level improvement and loot, I think martial arts are the things that are really worth digging into. After all, as the level increases, the advantages of spellcasters become more and more obvious than the warrior profession. No matter how you look at it, we should strengthen it. It’s a wave.”

"Didn't we already pass on the knowledge imparted by Warrior Captain Gazef? There should be results soon, right?"

"To be honest, although this NPC named Gazef is not very powerful, the martial arts skills used in the demonstration are indeed something. If we can join the warrior profession, we will be prosperous."

"Who says it isn't? Now all warrior professions are staring at updates, waiting for those new skills to come online."

"That's not right! Rather than skills, shouldn't we be more concerned about the big BOSS in this world? According to Jack and the others, that BOSS has now arrived near the forest."

"Oh? Really? Already confirmed?"

"No, it hasn't been confirmed yet, but they said they are close to it. The senior NPC who brought us here even ordered us not to go near the area."

…

While the players were having a heated discussion, a gorgeously decorated carriage slowly passed through the city gate of E-Rantel, almost entering the city together with the cavalry led by Warrior Captain Gazef.

Sitting on the carriage was none other than Old Bones and his personally chosen partner, Sebastian.

Different from the original plot, this time the former did not choose to appear as an adventurer, but played the role of a nobleman traveling far away.

The latter plays the role of coachman and steward.

Since E-Rantel is the closest city to the Great Tomb of Nazarick, they arrived here as their first stop.

Looking at the scenery, buildings and streets outside the car window, as well as the adventurers passing by from time to time, Old Bones asked Sebastian who was driving the carriage through the window: "How, have you found any targets that need special attention?" ?"

Sebastian replied calmly: "I'm really sorry, Master, so far I haven't found a target that can make me feel threatened. At least none of them can compare with the adventurers I observed before."

"Yeah, maybe adventurers of that level are rare in this world." Old Bones touched his chin and analyzed.

But after a while, he gave a straightforward order: "In short, find a place to stay first, and then we can go to the tavern or the Adventurer's Guild to inquire about it tomorrow. If possible, it is best to hire a few local adventurers. Or, get some information from their mouths."

"Understood! I will find a hotel that suits your status right away."

Sebastian was undoubtedly the most obedient of all the high-level NPCs in the Great Tomb of Nazarick. He quickly used his keen eyes to find a high-end hotel on the busy streets.

Since he had no money in this world, he first found a magic shop and sold two bottles of low-level healing potions before going in and booking a luxurious room.

As for the food…

Since Old Bones, an immortal, didn't need to eat anything at all and had no way to eat, he could only order Sebastian to eat two portions together while he sat in front of the window sill and looked at the night scene outside.

Perhaps due to the incompatibility caused by the sudden change of identity, now he often falls into memories of past episodes, and has an inexplicable barrier to the reality in front of him.

Just when Old Bones wanted to get rid of this strange feeling, he suddenly found a strong negative energy wave coming from the cemetery in the distance, followed by a black light that was not very eye-catching and appeared out of thin air. It only appeared for a second. Disappeared.

"Sebastian! Did you see it?"

Old Bones suddenly stood up from the chair.

"Yes, Supreme Being, I saw it. It should be the effect of some kind of negative energy magic, and someone is fighting in the cemetery."

Sebastian stated his judgment straightforwardly.

"Let's go! Let's go take a look!"

Without saying a word, Old Bones jumped out of the window and used flying magic to rush towards the scene of the incident.

Sebastian followed closely behind and was inseparable.

Since both of them were very fast, they soon saw a blurry scene shrouded in white mist...
