Lord of War

When Arkham woke up, he found himself lying in a stone room, his head was extremely dizzy, and he even felt nauseous.

This feeling made Arkham extremely uncomfortable, almost worse than a hangover.

Fortunately, someone soon handed over a cup of hot water and fed Arkham a few sips.

After entering it, Arkham realized that it was not hot water, but a kind of warm tea that is common in the north—it was said to be warm tea, but in fact it was not the kind of high-grade tea that only the nobles of the Chinas Empire could enjoy. It is a liquid made by boiling several herbs. This liquid is sour in the mouth, and even has a bit of bitterness. Most people don't like it, but it is a rare good thing for mercenaries and adventurers. This kind of warm tea can warm their bodies, and the bitterness The smell can also stimulate their spirits.

Warm tea is especially useful for a swordsman like Arkham.

Jianhao has relatively excellent offensive and defensive capabilities, and is considered very average in terms of combat capabilities. He does not have too obvious combat weaknesses, but he also does not have strong advantages and characteristics. This kind of profession is very good at protracted battles and tough battles, especially in battles that need to maintain a stable situation. Jianhao can play a greater role than other sword professions.

However, because of his advantages in combat ability, Jian Hao actually has a very fatal weakness.

Very low resistance to abnormal abilities.

Therefore, the effect of warm tea—an elixir used to restore abnormal states—can also be said to be "outstanding" when used on Arkham.

After taking several swigs, Arkham's perception gradually recovered, and his vision gradually became clearer.

At this time, he realized that it was Joanna who was feeding him the warm tea.

Although his head was still a little groggy, Arkham still sat up with his body propped up, and then looked around, but he didn't see anyone else. So Arkham looked at Joanna again, and asked weakly, "Where are the others?"

Joanna froze for a moment.

This reaction made Arkham's pupils shrink suddenly. Hastily asked: "What's going on!"

"Ryze betrayed you." At this time, Sean also came over and said. "He first hypnotized you all, and then lured the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard over, and Shi Ener died on the spot....Hams sacrificed himself in order to cover our smooth departure. The situation was very critical at that time, So Joanna and I had no choice but to hide in this ruins behind your back, but then you were all bewitched by the illusory flower. You have been in a coma for two days, and Joanna woke up just a few hours earlier than you."

"Damn it!" Arkham cursed angrily.

But soon. He turned his head to look at Joanna again, and asked in a deep voice, "Have you checked everything here?"

Joanna nodded.

Arkham's face soon became depressed again, and his eyes were even a little dull, as if he had received some major blow.

Sean glanced at Arkham, and then said: "I don't know what Ryze said to you, but I can be sure that there is absolutely nothing you want here.... Ryze's real purpose is That totem pole, he tricked you to come here just to use you as sacrifices. If he wants to start the demon summoning ceremony, he must have enough sacrifices. Of course, I guess the ghost-winged monster outside must also be his choice one of the offerings.

"

"Isn't he afraid of the backlash of his soul!" Arkham cursed angrily.

"Once his sacrifice is successful, his soul can be strengthened, and the soul loss caused by violating the contract is not worth mentioning at all." Sean said lightly, without much anger in his tone, "and... Once he completes the deal with the devil or the devil, those people sent by the Adventurer's Association to hunt him down will probably not be his opponents, but will become the nourishment for his strength."

Arkham's face looked extremely ugly.

"Dealing with magicians. It's better to pay more attention." Sean sighed, and said helplessly, "Especially those wandering magicians, most of them are not very good-natured, and the only thing that can react is the magic of the inheritance school." Teacher, even if it is an academic school..."

Sean didn't continue to say the following words, but he believed that Arkham could also hear it.

Arkham didn't say anything more. If he still can't see that Xiao En's identity and strength are not simple at this moment, then he is not a qualified leader.

Obviously, the rapid growth of Sean's strength before must have something to do with his trip, but this is a secret after all, and Arkham will naturally not be so ignorant to ask anything. He just needs to know that Sean has no ill intentions towards them, because if Sean really likes them, he can attack them as early as when they are unconscious, and he won't wait until now.

"Then what should we do now?" Arkham asked, "Given our current situation, it might not be an easy task to leave here. After all... there is still that Ghost Winged Demon Lizard outside. "

"Don't worry about this." Sean said softly, "Someone is coming to pick us up."

"Someone is coming to pick us up?" Arkham was slightly taken aback, then subconsciously asked, "Who?"

"I'm a...friend," Sean replied.

Sean really didn't know how to explain this new guard.

According to the regulations of the system, these guards should be defaulted to be Sean's followers, just like Nolo. It's just that, despite the system's default ability, in fact these guys are not necessarily obedient, just like when Nolo came to find Sean, that guy didn't intend to obey Sean's orders at first, and in the end it was Xiao En relied on the special emergency measures left for him by the system to keep Nolo in good order.

And the guard he has drawn out now actually appeared yesterday.

Sean can feel the extremely strong aura of fate when the other party appears - in fact, it is impossible to sense this aura with Sean's strength, but the other party and Sean have a soul contract, so The moment the other party appeared in this world, Sean's soul received a strong intervention from the other party's soul.

However, after the other party entered this world, he did not take the initiative to contact Sean.

So at this moment, apart from being able to feel that the other party is nearby, Sean doesn't know what the other party is doing. It is also impossible to know what the other party is thinking.

Moreover, given that the opponent's battle strength is absolutely legendary, Sean really doesn't have the cheek to say that the opponent is his follower.

Arkham could naturally hear Sean's momentary pause. Although he was a little confused about the word "friend" that Sean said, it was obvious that Sean was not very willing to continue this topic, so he couldn't say anything more, just nodded slightly.

Joanna on the side didn't speak, but took care of Arkham carefully.

"Since you are all awake, let's go out." Sean said. "He has been waiting outside for more than a day."

"Okay." Arkham was straightforward, even though he hadn't fully recovered yet. But since Sean said so, he also chose to believe, "How many days have we been in this ruin?"

"It's been at least a week." Sean couldn't be sure how many days he had been here, because after touching the totem of the Apocalypse and absorbing its power, he fell into a coma. In the game, it takes two to three game days for the player to fully integrate the bronze body, so Xiao En speculates that the transformation time of the silver body should not be shorter than the two to three days of the bronze body.

"You must hold your breath in the false corridor for a while. Then close your eyes and don't care about anything. Just grab the corner of my clothes and follow me forward, you know?"

Although Arkham and Joanna didn't know what was going on, they nodded after hearing what Sean said.

Soon, the three of them left this stone room one after another.

Because of Sean's advance warning, Arkham and Joanna saw the dense fog in the corridor of illusion. Although there was a look of surprise on their faces, they didn't say much. They kept in mind Sean's order, tightly grasped the corner of Sean's clothes, and then walked forward together. And Sean. Originally, it was not an easy task to pass through this illusory corridor, but Xiao En knew that a person with a bronze body could not be affected by the illusory corridor, not to mention that what he now had was a silver body.

Therefore, along the way, it was quite easy to return to the previous stone slab.

As Sean carefully pushed up the stone slab, and then took a peek, he found that the wounded Ghost Winged Demon Lizard was not in the cave.

It's just that the turbid and stench inside the cave is still unpleasant, which makes Sean feel quite helpless.

But at least they came out smoothly.

Feeling silently, Sean knew that the guard was outside the cave, so he didn't stop any longer. After turning his head and talking to Arkham and Joanna, the three of them quickly walked towards the cave. .hole. Run outside. Given their current weak and exhausted state, they are indeed not suitable for dealing with the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard—of course, Sean is very clear that if that guy is around, the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard is either dead or It was the first time to escape.

Instinctively speaking, Sean actually hoped that the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard was dead, because the materials on this monster were extremely rare.

After the three of them ran out of the cave, they didn't see the Ghost Winged Lizard, nor did they see any other figures.

Arkham and Joanna were slightly relieved, only Sean was slightly disappointed.

"Where's your friend?" At this time, Arkham asked hastily, "Should we find a place to hide and wait for him, or what should I say?... The Ghost Winged Demon Lizard has a very keen sense of smell, if we stay here If it is nearby, it may be very dangerous."

Arkham and others had the experience of being chased and killed by the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard before, so some of the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard's abilities are still fresh in their memory. At this moment, Arkham was extremely weak and exhausted. If Sean hadn't said that there were friends waiting outside, and Joanna's condition was not bad, he would never have agreed to leave that stone room now anyway.

After all, there is no sense of security.

No matter how strong your companion is, if you can't exert a certain combat value when you encounter equally powerful enemies and monsters, then it is actually no different from waiting to die. Especially in the business of mercenaries and adventurers, whether one's own condition is normal or not is extremely critical.

But at this moment, Sean felt an extremely intimate atmosphere approaching in his heart.

Obviously, this breath came from the newly drawn guard.

Although the other party was not the one Xiao En wanted to kill Wu Ji most, he was also one of the strongest guards he had selected, so he had nothing to complain about.

Soon, there was a rustling and rubbing sound in the woods outside the cave.

Arkham and Joanna felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy in an instant, and hurriedly shouted: "Something is approaching, we have no time to run now, let's go back to the ruins first!"

"No need." Sean smiled lightly and shook his head, "It's one of our own."

"My own?" Arkham was taken aback for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, he and Joanna saw an extremely shocking scene.

At this moment, the mouths of these two people who opened their mouths in astonishment might be able to stuff several eggs into them.

However, unlike the extreme shock of Joanna and Arkham, Sean's face showed excitement.

In front of everyone's line of sight, a short figure was slowly walking out.

If it was just this figure, although Arkham and Joanna would feel astonished, they would definitely not be shocked like this - even if they saw something dragging behind this figure.

The short figure grabbed the upper jaw of the Ghost-Winged Demon Lizard with his left hand, and then walked out of the woods step by step calmly, dragging the Ghost-winged Demon-Winged Demon Lizard out—obviously, this head tore apart Arkham and his team and even made them The Ghost Winged Demon Lizard, who was suffering from a headache and frightened, had obviously been dead for a long time at this time.

In this world, there are actually quite a few people who can kill the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard. Even Arkham, he believes that with the cooperation of his team and the special props provided by Sean before, they can also kill the Demon Lizard. Easily solve the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard. But if it is a one-on-one fight, Arkham thinks that if he does not have the strength of the Sanctuary, it is obviously unrealistic, because the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard is too powerful.

But!

The person in front of him who walked out calmly dragging the corpse of the Ghost Winged Demon Lizard was just a child!

A boy who looked no older than eleven or twelve years old.

He has a pair of blood-red eyes, his golden hair looks exceptionally bright under the sunlight, and his white wide-collar coat looks exceptionally clean and tidy, without any stains from the environment of the Akaz Forest. This man obviously looks like a lovely child, probably at the age of living carefree by his mother's side.

However, when Arkham saw another object that was also dragged by the child's right hand, his pupils shrank suddenly.

It was a silver-white giant sword that was at least two meters tall by visual inspection!
