Quadruple split

Time flies, time flies.

In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed, and Cordoba stood up after saying goodbye to everyone in the common room, teleported to the public space in a burst of distorted light, and skillfully completed the preparations on the game interface. He calmly entered his final battle in this year's [Inquisition Debate·Personal Battle].

On the other side, Christina timidly stood up after remembering Lucie's instructions, left Kasena's private room, and cautiously opened the game interface to complete the final preparations.

Ever since, when the game time came to AM01:05, Cordoba, who was humiliated and defeated by Ye Getian in the first half, and Christina Youke, who was unable to defeat Dahua Petunia in the second half, were at the same time. Appeared on the map of the final third place battle.

Competition venue——

[Inquisition Debate·Personal Battle] Special map for the third place match: Plan codename [Thousand Sun Flames] Main battlefield, Dragon’s Pride second defense circle!

…

[The end of the dragon clan? No, looking at this situation, it should be the pride of the dragon before this land was conquered by the Sun Dynasty...]

Although his body was unable to move due to the restrictions of the system, Cordoba realized where he was immediately. After all, as Lucie said, he was just two, not stupid, so it only took a few seconds. It took him no time to realize that this was the hometown of Fimiguel, the former location of the Dragon Kingdom, and now the predecessor of the end of the Dragon Clan in the Northwest Continent.

It is worth mentioning that even though his usual style of painting is completely martial arts, and he looks like a sports student among sports students when viewed horizontally and vertically, Cordoba’s [Learning] in the civilization attribute is the best among players. Even a certain king who has a vision all over the continent and knows countless secrets cannot compete with Cordoba in the field of pure [knowledge]. Perhaps only a single-player mage lost in the timeline can stand with him in this regard. same height.

If you want to ask why, it is simply because the knowledge hidden inside [Tianzhu Mountain] is too complete, too broad, and too sophisticated, so much so that even the Thieves Guild, the Mages Guild, the United Holy Religion, Academy City, the Erudite Society, and Yuanyu A large number of neutral organizations with a long history and attaching great importance to intelligence collection, such as the Hostel and the Archaeologists Association, cannot compete with it.

In fact, even if Ji Xiaoge rarely stays in the mountains, and even when he goes back, he is usually in the workshop setting up wrenches, screwdrivers or pots and pans, he can be said to be 'erudite' under the influence of his eyes and ears in the past year, and has mastered unknown knowledge. How much quality information those studios or clubs can only dream of getting.

Putting aside these objective factors, the main reason why Cordoba can recognize this place at a glance is actually two points:

First of all, he has a very good relationship with the azure dragon Femiguel Bluetooth, who is also the representative of Tianzhu Mountain and is quite trusted by Lu Wei (referring to the fact that he is often sent to do dirty work). Bickering or sarcasm, but compared to leaving behind Ji Xiaoge, whom he also knew in real life, Fimiguel is a good friend who can be as good as 'Mo' in Cordoba's concept. If you want to ask for a more specific reason, it is probably because Fimiguel had known him since the early days of the Cordoba game, and he was still a senior agent.

Based on this premise, Shifi Miguel, who even Mo Tan knew about the fall of the Dragon Kingdom, naturally told Cordoba about it. Not only that, he often took Cordoba to [Between the Rings] to use it. The latter's memory recreated the appearance of the dragon kingdom when it was prosperous, and he would introduce it to him with great interest for a long time every time.

Over time, although there is now only a bone burial ground called Dragon's End left on this continent, Cordoba is still very familiar with the Dragon's Pride back then.

As for the second reason, he noticed that there were two rows of people standing in front of him, wearing golden battle armor that was as dazzling as light. They were holding broad-bladed giant swords engraved with a large number of complicated heraldry, and their bodies were filled with layers of light. Lun, warriors of different races and body shapes, yet giving off a sense of neatness and solemnity.

There is no doubt that they are the [Soul-casting Guards] that the Sun Dynasty is proud of, and they are not ordinary Soul-casting Guards, but the absolute elite who are selected from a thousand and are qualified to wear black-on-gold-patterned cloaks.

In other words, to be able to stand in this position at this moment...

"team leader."

At the moment when time started to flow again, the dwarf soul-casting guard on Cordoba's left, who had a braided beard under his visor and looked like an iron can under his heavy armor, suddenly knelt down on one knee and faced Cordoba. Wa said solemnly: "Please withdraw, the second round of counterattack by those reptiles will arrive soon, and we have fallen into a trap."

【Fell into a trap? 】

Under the intervention of the system, Cordoba, who did not arouse suspicion even though he looked like a rune body, frowned, but did not answer immediately. He just lowered his eyes and looked at the man with a beard stuck to the snow. The dwarf guards put silent pressure on the latter.

"team leader!"

But the dwarf seemed to be risking his life. After not getting the answer he wanted, he took a deep breath and said solemnly: "We have fallen into the trap! We can only fall into the trap! Those reptiles have fallen into the trap." treacherous plot."

[Reptile’s conspiracy? Does he mean the dragon clan that lasted less than half a month? Have I traveled to other world lines? 】

Cordoba frowned even more tightly, and his face gradually became gloomy. After all, even if he had decided to lose the game, in his opinion, his grasp of the background would definitely be the same as if he lost the game. The fashion value is absolutely proportional.

To put it bluntly, the more familiar you are with the script, the more handsome you will be when you hit the street.

However, it may be because Cordoba's expression was too gloomy. In addition to the dwarf on his left, the beast elf guard on his right also knelt down on one knee and said solemnly: "Captain, brothers know that something fishy is going on. We know that the arrogance of those big lizards cannot come up with such a trick, and we also know that the order we received in the morning was the reason for this situation, but captain... we must have fallen into the trap of those reptiles!"

"Praise the sun."

The dwarf guard muttered this angrily, then raised his head suddenly and said sternly to Cordoba: "Please withdraw, Captain! Since it has become a fact that we have fallen into the trap, then at least we must let you... Captain, go back. This way, at least our numbers can be kept, and our names will still have a chance to be remembered by those who come after us!"

【ah! So that’s what happened! 】

Cordoba's eyes lit up, and he finally understood the current situation.

To put it simply, the team he led became a victim of the Sun Dynasty when it attacked the second defensive circle of Dragon Pride, and was one of the decoy troops.

However, in Cordoba's memory, when the Sun Dynasty recorded this phase of the battle, it justly stated that those teams accepted the mission and went to the righteous cause generously knowing that they were bound to die. But now it seems that …

"We were lied to."

Cordoba spoke for the first time after loading the game, and read in a slightly deeper voice: "But there is no Kansai."

"No... no Kansai?"

The dwarf kneeling on the ground was stunned for a moment, his expression a little confused, and he obviously did not understand the accent of his captain.

"I mean, it doesn't matter."

Cordoba weighed the agent's staff in his hand and said calmly: "At least we have achieved our goal, haven't we?"

The soul-casting guards secretly exchanged several glances, but none of them understood what the captain meant. However, with the discipline that was almost engraved in their bones, they did not question or ask questions, but quietly waited for the next step.

Cordoba did not let them wait long, and soon said with a smile: "We are soldiers, and the duty of soldiers is to complete the task and praise the sun. Since you have completed the task assigned above, next, It’s time to carry out my orders as captain.”

"Execute...your order?"

The tall beast elf guard was shocked, and then his pupils suddenly shrank: "Wait, you can't..."

“Retreat to a safe place and wait for integration.”

Cordoba carried the staff of the agent and walked slowly between the two rows of soul-casting guards in front of him. He said without squinting or looking back: "I'm here to buy time for you."

"team leader!"

"Captain can't!"

"We can't let you face those reptiles alone!"

"Captain, please let everyone stay together!"

Suddenly, except for the dwarf guards and the beast elf guards, everyone else couldn't hold back. Although they instinctively maintained their statue-like posture, they still started making noises.

Then--

"I said, push to a safe place and wait to gather, I will buy time for you,"

Cordoba, who walked slowly past the last two people, stood still, then gently tapped the agent's staff on the ground and said without looking back: "This is an order."

Bang!

As a total of eight red, two green, two yellow, and two white runes on the rune body were lit at the same time, an invisible shock wave suddenly erupted from the agent's staff and the ground, directly rushing the guard behind him. Fall to the ground.

"I won't say it a third time."

Under the horrified gazes of the 'subordinates' behind him, Cordoba said lightly, and then his voice suddenly dropped: "Get out!"

…

Time flies like an arrow, time flies by

Two minutes later, Cordoba breathed a sigh of relief as he watched his "subordinates" leave the dangerous area. Then he suddenly showed a refreshing and bright smile, and then spoke in the absence of anyone, which was even more surprising. What's interesting is that his words were not addressed to some humanoid or dragon-shaped creature lurking around him. The targets of his BB were all the people watching the live broadcast——

"Although I can't guarantee it 100%, there is a high probability that this is the time when the Sun Dynasty launched a large-scale attack on the Dragon Kingdom, and the place where I am is the penultimate line of defense of the dragons. As for the role I play, it should be a discarded child from the Sun Dynasty."

Cordoba grinned and spoke eloquently: "Well, first of all, I wish you all a happy National Day and wish our motherland prosperity. Then, I apologize for the not-so-exciting game in the last round. Just like Ye Ge said that her mentor is my creator in [The Realm of Innocence], so please forgive me, I am not merciful, I really can't play with her.

Then there is the fact that I don’t really care about rankings and rewards, or in other words... I don’t have much need, especially now that I am destined to miss the championship.

So I decided to open up the layout and try to give you something exciting.

For example, if nothing else happens, a considerable number of giant dragons will arrive here soon, and I will try my best to fight with them.

Didn't a commentary teacher say it before, "The Confrontation" is not competitive at all, so let me make this game more "spectacular".

Oh, by the way, I would like to apologize to Brother Awakening Dragon. I seemed to have scared you before. I hope that the battle in a while will help you advance to the epic level. "

…

"Yeah, Cordoba has named you!"

In the temporary banquet hall of the Broken Wind Bird Club, Baihuasha bumped Xinglong's arm with a face full of teasing, and said happily: "How do you feel? Does it feel warm from the bottom of your heart?"

Xinglong twitched the corners of his lips and said dryly: "I will decide whether to thank him or not based on the harvest for a while."

"But having said that, this Cordoba is quite different from what I imagined."

Guijianchou touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "It seems pretty easy to deal with..."

The typing warrior said sharply: "But you are very difficult to deal with, Japs."

"You can't expect me to have a good conversation with someone who calls me a devil."

Gui Jianchou looked at the other party coldly, with a very unkind tone.

Keren, who was deeply shocked by the battle between Cordoba and Xinglong, licked the corner of his mouth and said from the bottom of his heart: "So strong, I really want to kill him."

"Good sister, let's set our goals lower first."

Baihuasha casually put his arm around Keren's shoulders and suggested, "Let's start with Awakening the Dragon."

The latter frowned and realized that it was unrealistic to challenge Cordoba with his current strength, so he nodded and said: "Okay."

Xinglong also nodded and said concisely: "6."

"Don't interrupt."

Boss Sakaki, who was rarely seen as a serious person, looked solemnly and said in a deep voice: "The dragon is coming!"

"Tsk, the dragon is coming."

Almost at the same time, Cordoba, who was on the right half of the screen, also raised his head, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a very striking arc.

Then……

Buzz!

As a sharp sound like tinnitus passed by people's ears, Cordoba's eyes, which were originally overflowing with blue runic energy, instantly turned red, and his high ponytail-like heat dissipation line appeared in the air. Within half a second, it extended to the ankle and turned into a faint blue. From a distance, it looked like the long tassel on the top of a knight's helmet.

Immediately afterwards, the eight runes on Cordoba's body were instantly extinguished, and instead, a dark red rune like an Omega symbol in the center of his chest was silently lit up.

Agreement lifted, overclocking and overloading.

The insurance melted down and the talisman wings unfolded.

Cordoba——

【second to none】
