Lord of War

In the fighting festival of the gold group, the competition was more intense than Xiao En could have imagined.

Because the No. 1 arena has not been repaired, the Ryan Dou Arena uses the nine arenas from No. 2 to No. 10, so the competition is arranged to be held every morning and afternoon, which means that every day in Ryan Eighteen groups of martial arts festival competitions will be held in the fighting arena. However, because the first day is the first day of the Golden Group Martial Arts Festival, there are actually 20 groups of competitions, but only these 20 groups have caused 15 people to be killed in battle, several people were seriously injured and disabled, and there are still 10 people. Several people may not be able to participate in any battles in the next few months.

Logically speaking, after the first day of the competition, there should be 20 people who will advance to the second round of the competition, but after the real competition is over, only a dozen or so people can actually continue to participate in the second round of the competition.

The result of this casualty battle became more intense and intense on the second day.

A total of 36 people participated in the eighteen groups of competitions. In the end, less than ten people could continue to participate in the second round of the competition. Together with the dozen or so people on the first day, there were only a handful of thirty people. If this casualty rate continues, I am afraid that no more than a hundred people will be able to advance to the second round. This level can no longer be called a knockout match, but a complete and thorough death match.

And this situation became more serious on the third day.

The old grudges from the silver group, plus the new grudges from the first and second days of the gold group competition, a total of nine people were killed on the spot in the third day of the 18th group competition, and another four people died after the rescue failed. One person was unable to fight again for life, and a magician was turned into an idiot by the backlash of magic power. Only three people managed to make it to the second round and were guaranteed to continue.

Sean was dumbfounded when he saw the news.

In his impression, the fighting festival in the game was the carnival season for players. In fact, all players did deal with this as an event task in the game. After all, the first expansion pack was released at that time, and the mainstream level of players was basically in the Silver Realm, so it would be in the Kingdom of Ryan There are tens of thousands of players signing up for the martial arts festival. The fighting scene was naturally extremely spectacular and intense.

It is also because of this that the gold group events have become a kind of gambling pastime among players. They only need to consider who can bet on who can get the rewards. As for other things, they are not in their consideration at all. In fact, no matter how powerful it is, it is always just a statistic for many players. It is a synonym for experience points, rewards, equipment, etc., whoever dies lives, and no one cares about whether the death is heroic or humble.

"According to this rhythm, it is estimated that we can skip the top 64 and start from the top 32." Sean sighed. "However, what exactly caused such a tragic situation?"

"It seems that the principality of Robin provoked it first.

"Rina is now following Sean, not just as a follower, she is also responsible for many tasks such as intelligence collection, "Because of the matter of the eldest son of Prince Lorne. So from the first day, when the people from the Robin Principality met the people from the Kalosa Tribal United Nations, they didn't hold back anything. The battle ended with the death of the members of the Kalosa Tribal United Nations. "

"So it just heated up yesterday?" Sean asked in surprise.

"Yes." Reina nodded, "The people of the Karosha Tribal United launched a fierce counterattack yesterday. There are also old grievances between the Fascists and Ryan, and there are also irreconcilable issues between the Principality of Robin and Ryan. Therefore, yesterday they chose to act first, after all... the real purpose of the gold team is also to weaken the main powerhouse of the enemy country."

"This kind of intense outbreak is likely to usher in a new round soon." Sean curled his lips, "You better be careful. People from the Kingdom of Fascism and the Kingdom of Hales will definitely choose to keep an eye on it." I shot, but since I am the strongest silver, I don't have their say in the silver group events, so I guess they will definitely attack you in an extremely targeted manner."

"This situation has been expected a long time ago." Cecilia said disdainfully, "If you didn't prohibit us from turning over all the cards too quickly, how could they have a share in talking.... This time I think it is only the Fascist Kingdom Those few gold powerhouses are more threatening, and those in other countries are not to be feared. Of course, this can only prove that we are better than other countries in terms of the level of force of individual powerhouses. , I’m still not optimistic about the Ryan Kingdom.”

"At present, few people are optimistic about it." Sean shrugged, "It will take at least five years for Ryan to become truly stable. ... If you want to completely digest the heritage and wealth left by an old kingdom, it is not It's so easy. And even if Ryan is given five years, it still can't change the thinking of some extreme people. If the royal family of Ryan can't handle the issue of the old Darbion people well, then the internal friction alone may make this newborn The kingdom is history."

"War is like this." Cecilia obviously has a lot of feelings about this issue. "It doesn't mean that a country is destroyed, it is true peace. Unless there is only Ryan on this continent."

"It is precisely because of this that the martial arts festival has military drills." Xiao En smiled slightly, "Now, you should know what the meaning of the martial arts festival is, right?...This kind of seemingly peaceful practice The bloody consumption is the scariest thing. Think about the gold powerhouses who died these days, which is almost catching up with the sum of the gold powerhouses who died in the war between us and Darbion. But for other neighboring countries In other words, the pressure they need to bear is extremely small, because their contestants are all selected, but for us Ryan...hehe."

There is no need to say what Sean said later, Cecilia and Rina can also understand it.

As long as it continues to consume like this, it will not be as simple as five years for the Kingdom of Ryan to regain its vitality. In other words, the current tragic situation of complete chaos. Maybe it is the situation that other neighboring countries most want to see, or it may be the script they arranged. The only thing to say was beyond their expectations. Probably the battle situation of the silver team, this is probably something that the Principality of Robin and the Kingdom of Fascism did not expect.

However, Sean guessed that Philip from the Kalosa Tribal United and the nobleman from the Kingdom of Hales would definitely withdraw from the silver group after seeing that their strength was beyond their imagination. And when the time comes, the championship and runner-up should be arranged by him, the girl who killed the second son of Prince Lorne, and Du Yin. Although this seems to be Ryan's complete victory on the surface, it is actually a little advantage It didn't get it either, but instead made them a target that Ryan's neighbors needed to focus on in the future, because Sean believed that if there was a chance. These countries would certainly not mind using assassination methods to make them disappear from this world completely.

The martial arts festival is about life.

In the blink of an eye, the Golden Group's Fighting Festival has officially entered its fourth day.

But in the entire Ryan Dou arena, there is an atmosphere of madness, and almost every area in the arena has a strong and exciting bloody atmosphere. But fortunately, Ryan's top management still has at least a lot of wise people, because starting today, Ryan Fighting Arena suddenly has nine more sanctuary powerhouses sitting in command. It was ensured that each arena area was personally supervised by a sanctuary powerhouse. As long as the battle between the two contestants reached a level sufficient to judge the outcome, these sanctuary powerhouses would forcibly suspend the next game.

As a result, it naturally caused dissatisfaction among many people, but when the power of the strong man in the sanctuary was completely released without any concealment, no one dared to express any dissatisfaction anymore.

But in this way. At this time, almost all the sanctuary powerhouses who were sitting in the King's capital of Ryan were thrown into the arena of Ryan.

In a strategic sense, this is containment.

Many conspiracy theorists always feel that this must be a conspiracy plan by fascists, Robin, Hales and other countries, and they must be planning something. This naturally includes Sean. Because as a player, any unreasonable things are worth exploring and pondering. Because often they can find many clues from here, and thus pursue a miracle.

However, the fourth day passed, the fifth day passed, and the sixth day passed in a blink of an eye.

Everything was eerily calm.

And I have to say, with these sanctuary powerhouses in charge, the casualty rate of the martial arts festival dropped all of a sudden.

This is naturally a good thing for Ryan. After all, if the fight continues like this, this loss alone will be enough to ruin Ryan's stability for the next two to three years. After all, this time the martial arts festival is held, and Ryan is also saving on this side to see if he can harvest a few talents. etc. Of course, people from other kingdoms don't mind poaching corners, but success or failure depends on the sincerity of all parties.

Sean didn't think too much about it, he only knew that after today, tomorrow would be another match for the silver group.

In the competition of the top five, there will still be a bye, and the remaining four will fight in two teams. It is still a single-elimination system. The two who win the game and the bye will be the final contenders for the third place in the championship and second season. Candidates. However, Sean believed that whether it was Philip or Prince Hales, as long as they met him, they would definitely choose to surrender immediately. Of course, if you face someone of your own, there's nothing you can do about it.

However, as he promised to the Marquis of Floris, he is sure to win the silver group championship.

"Okay, we can rest for a while after tomorrow." Sean smiled, with an unprecedented relaxed look on his face, "The goods from the Chamber of Commerce Alliance should have almost been delivered, and we will have time to receive them by then, so Think of it as a rare time for a picnic in the countryside... After you get the two elemental crystals, you can feed them to marshmallows together. Speaking of which, I am really curious that this little guy is full of four elemental crystals After that, what will become of it?"

"I'm also very curious." Cecilia smiled, "But after this martial arts festival is over, do you have any plans?"

"There are still a lot of things to be done, I plan to..." Sean thought for a while, and then he said, "There are a few promises that must be fulfilled. After all, the longer it takes, the more I feel the burden on my shoulders." It's heavier. And, Andrew told me something before he left, I think..."

Before he could finish speaking, Sean's expression changed instantly. Suddenly stood up from the chair.

A bone-piercing icy breath instantly permeated the entire Duke's mansion. Immediately after the next second. There was a strong sense of vibration, Sean almost didn't even think about it, he rushed towards Cecilia with a swoop, and threw her to the ground, but where she was originally standing was It collapsed directly, and a hole just enough for one person to pass appeared at Cecilia's feet.

At this time, Sean and Cecilia were in the study on the second floor. The first floor corresponding to this room is the restaurant. When there is nothing to do, Sean will come to this room to read a book or have a rest after lunch, and Cecilia will come here to accompany Sean when there is nothing to do. Someone will bother Sean and Cecilia.

However, the current situation is obviously in a state of urgency.

But the strange thing is that no one came to inform Sean at all. It felt as if Sean and Cecilia were the only ones left in the Duke's mansion.

But if you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of weapons clashing and crazy shouts outside. But these voices felt very far away to Sean, as if they were shouting from a very long distance, but Sean knew very well that these voices were all over the entire Duke's mansion - the corridors, the atrium ,garden. The sound of fighting is everywhere.

Sean's heart sank: When was the Duke's Mansion invaded? Moreover, Rui Na and the others didn't even have the chance to warn them immediately?

But before Sean could take any action, the whole floor of the study room began to shake more intensely. It felt as if someone was using explosives to blow up the entire Duke's mansion. The next moment, the entire floor of the study room collapsed completely, and everything in the study room fell to the dining room on the first floor. Very simply smashed the dining room to pieces, the same bookshelves, the books on the bookshelves, and the furniture in the study were all broken.

Fortunately. The moment the ground crumbled, Sean had already picked up Cecilia, and with a few leverages, he fell steadily to the ground on the first floor without being injured.

"What's going on?" Cecilia said with a look of surprise, as if she had just recovered.

"It's been invaded." Sean said coldly, "The speed is too fast... I just noticed the breath..."

Having said that, Sean was stunned for a moment, then his face changed instantly, and he pulled Cecilia back quickly. Almost without thinking, with a sudden wave of his right hand in mid-air, the Black King was already in his hand, and with a vigorous strike, all the things blocking the way were smashed and shattered, and a passage was directly cleared out.

At this time, all the scenes that were blocked from the field of vision were finally completely and clearly presented in front of Xiao En.

But when seeing this scene, both Sean and Cecilia had unconcealable shock and anger in their eyes. However, Sean has more understanding and affirmation than Cecilia, because he already knows who the enemy is.

What appeared in Xiao En's field of vision at this time was a bloody scene like a Shura field.

There were already several corpses lying on the ground, but these corpses were not soldiers, but servants in the Duke's mansion. But at this moment, their faces showed an extremely hideous scene. The nails on their hands had even been opened, and there were countless scars on their bodies. As for internal organs, they could be seen everywhere, and even before they died At the last moment, what remained in the minds of these people was still the attack.

And a little farther away, there are still figures fighting.

But these people who were fighting were not enemies from the outside world, but the guards in the mansion—the Snow Wind Guards brought by Marton!

These guards also showed ferocious expressions at the moment, holding up the weapons in their hands to attack any living creature within their field of vision, no matter if it was a person, livestock or companion, they would mercilessly swing down their butcher knives, even if their bodies were covered with scars , They are still waving their weapons and fighting tirelessly.

Looking at the scene in front of him, who would not know the facts?

These people were all affected by the negative effect of frenzy, and then killed each other!

"Da da--"

A burst of clear footsteps sounded slowly.

The owner of this voice didn't walk fast, but the rhythm like stepping on a drum beat directly on the hearts of Sean and Cecilia like a magic sound, making them feel extremely uncomfortable. However, compared to Cecilia, Sean is better. After all, the damage of the soul and spiritual system basically has no effect on him, but even so, it still makes him feel a little disgusted.

But soon, the footsteps stopped, and a figure appeared in front of Sean and Cecilia.

"It's you!?" Cecilia was a little surprised to see the person coming.

This person was the purple-haired middle-aged man that Sean and Cecilia had met in the tavern before. At this time, he took off his cloak, wearing a black windbreaker robe that reached the ground, and his long purple hair was combed very neatly. His hands were tucked under the robe and did not go through the sleeves of the robe. Compared with the arrogance he saw at first, the aura exuding from his whole body was more bohemian and free and easy.

But what Sean was looking at at this time was the other person's eyes: one eye was red, while the other was blue, which looked very strange.

The middle-aged man didn't pay attention to Cecilia, but stared at Sean firmly, and said softly after a while: "It seems that you guessed it was me."

"The power of madness." Sean said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect that your speed is so fast. As soon as I sensed your aura, you have already controlled everyone in the entire mansion."

"I'm too lazy to infiltrate bit by bit, and if you are the one I guessed, then as long as I slow down a step, you will be ready to fight back, so I have to spend more effort." The middle-aged man's voice It's not heavy, on the contrary it's very light, but it sounds like it has a unique charm, "I only want one thing in your hand, as long as you give it to me, then I will leave here immediately."

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Xiao En let out a sneer. In his eyes, the man's body exuded a luster that was so thick that it had already turned black. Obviously, there are two options where only one can live. If he still believes in the other party, then his real eyes will be blinded in vain. But at this moment, Sean still asked, "What do you have with me?"

He had to figure out who this person in front of him was!

"I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself." A smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face, which sublimated his charm at this moment, "You can call me Edward, or call me whatever you want Well, a name is just a code name to me."

Sean was silent.

"What I need is a notebook, which records something very important to me. ... Usually, people who get this notebook will call it the Demon Hunter's Handbook, and its previous owner was Yoda."

Sean's pupils shrank suddenly.

"It seems that the letter is indeed in your hand."

Seeing Sean's reaction, the middle-aged man knew that his adventure was worth it. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users, please go to read.)
