Soul of Burning Steel

Chapter 22 Sometimes it's embarrassing if the enemy is too cowardly

"It's still 2,400 experience points short. Fortunately, I don't need to do the [Glory Mission] now, otherwise I won't be able to advance to gold even if I'm given a few months."

Joshua looked at the attribute version again, and he breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he didn't need to do the advanced task all over again.

In the previous life, in the game, if the player wants to advance to gold, in addition to reaching the 31st level, he also needs to do a very difficult single-player task. The task content is very strange, but they are all very targeted. , task chain completion below 75% is considered a failure.

Needless to say, if you succeed, if you fail, not only will your level be kicked back to 30, but you will also not be able to challenge again within a month, which is a waste of time.

Two thousand four hundred points, which is roughly the experience of four or five silver warriors, is indeed not a big problem for Joshua, not to mention that he has another solution.

"If you count from the patrolling soldiers on the street to the silver guard at the end, I probably killed more than 50 enemies in a row. The achievement [Fifty Killing] provides 5,000 experience points, which is more than enough to upgrade."

Trying to open the achievement panel, Joshua found that the system was a bit stuck, and it took several seconds to open it. He couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect there would be a delay after time travel."

After the teasing, the achievement list opened, and suddenly, a mountain of data began to frantically swiped the screen in front of Joshua, and the achievement party member, the former legendary warrior, calmly rowed across the rows of [Achieved] Achievements, found the category list of [repeatable completion] that you need, and clicked on the achievement of [Number of serial kills].

"Only thirty consecutive cuts?"

He frowned slightly, but Joshua didn't care about such trivial matters: "It should be the reason why the mercenary was let go halfway, anyway, three thousand experience is just enough."

At this time, Yingying was no longer sorry for the ruins, she walked behind the soldier, raised her head and asked, "Master, what are you going to do next? Wipe out the enemies in the city?"

"Don't worry." Joshua shook his head and replied: "The people are too scattered, it's better to wait until they get together to investigate the situation. Let's rest for a while now."

After finishing speaking, he simply found a bigger stone and sat down with Yingying sitting beside him.

Warriors are always good at waiting.

crunch——

In a nearby dwelling, a resident cautiously opened the door. It was a middle-aged woman, who poked her head out cautiously to observe the surrounding situation.

People don't know what happened in the city recently, but no matter what, it can be seen that the soldiers patrolling and guarding the city gate have changed a group of strangers. A strange feeling, considering the bad climate and temperature in winter, not many people are willing to go out.

Nowadays, middle-aged women don’t go out of the house at all except to buy the necessary necessities of life, and she doesn’t care about what’s going on outside, but the roar just now is different, the sound is too loud, so she must go to see it Let's see what's going on.

She raised her head and glanced roughly, and found that there were no strange patrolling soldiers. The middle-aged woman breathed a sigh of relief and carefully observed her surroundings.

Then, she was dumbfounded in the next second, gasped in surprise and said, "Oh my God..." Covering her mouth with her hands, the middle-aged woman kept backing away, and then her legs softened, and she sat down on her buttocks. On the ground: "The Lord's Mansion, the Lord's Mansion has been shut down!"

"what happened?"

An impatient male voice came from the room, and the child's complaints from being woken up could be vaguely heard: "Close the door quickly, the cold wind is coming in, don't freeze the child."

"Ouch, the child's father, come and take a look!"

There was no time to explain, and she didn't know what words to use to explain. The middle-aged woman looked excited and shouted loudly: "Come here!"

"You stupid woman..." He cursed, and the man knew that there must be something wrong, so he quickly came out of the room, pulled up his old wife who was sitting at the door, and then frowned, looking out the door.

Afterwards, his eyes widened, his mouth opened, and while he was stunned, he also said: "Oh my god..."

Not far away, where the lord's mansion stood like a small castle in the center of the city, a huge mushroom cloud of black dust was slowly rising, and at the bottom of it was a large piece of ruins.

The couple looked at each other with surprise and doubt in their eyes.

who is it? Who brought down the Lord's Mansion? !

Turning their eyes, they found two vague figures beside the ruins of the Lord's Mansion.

At this time, Joshua had been waiting for about ten minutes. Logically speaking, no matter whether it was a silver or black iron-level fighter, he would definitely be able to arrive at the scene after such a long time, but in fact, no one came.

"I forgot." Shaking his head regretfully, Joshua felt that he still took it for granted.

After all, this is a real world, and there is only one life. It is not like the players in the game and the NPCs with hatred value, who will fight until their last breath. It was just a mercenary regiment that was trained, and doing things with money was already the biggest rule. When encountering monsters that were strong enough to knock down the city lord's mansion, running away was not a psychological burden at all for them.

Sometimes it is embarrassing for the enemy to be too cowardly.

Standing up, Joshua was about to leave: "Firefly, come here, ready to leave."

"Yes master, where are you going?"

"Go to the church square first and ring the bell to announce to the whole city." The soldier said with a natural expression on his face, "Tell them that I, Joshua, the lord of this land, have returned."

Since Uncle Cheap is dead, and Chris is not an idiot, no one will jump out to compete with him for the title. In this case, it’s time to notify the whole city to cancel the martial law, and then go to the Black Forest Fortress to pull a team of troops to maintain order. Other matters related to inheriting the title can be busy in the future.

Walking on the avenue, many residents along the way opened their doors or windows and looked in the direction of the Lord's Mansion. These people did not pay attention to Joshua and Hotaru. They only saw the black mushroom cloud that was gradually being blown away by the wind, full of people. With a puzzled face, after discovering that the soldiers patrolling before had disappeared, some bold people were going to go nearby to check the situation, and discussions arose.

Suddenly, the soldiers' footsteps stopped.

Joshua frowned, turned his head, and looked into the distance, his eyes pierced through the buildings and the snow, and he stared straight at the clouds in the high sky.

"The sound of the wind."

Said softly and solemnly, under Yingying's puzzled gaze, Joshua turned around, his expression gradually becoming serious.

What he heard was not the sound of the cold winter wind sweeping across the sky and blowing across the streets, nor was it the sound of the north wind sweeping through the clouds and blowing the frost. What Joshua heard was something ordinary people could not perceive, resounding through the air. A tremor between spirit and elemental.

In the invisible distance, there is a person, an existence, who vibrates the magic power in the atmosphere, making the spirits and elements in nature use it, and the slight movement of power is blown like the wind, and then it is captured by Joshua perception.

"Gold, the power of glory! It came so soon, the plan needs to be changed."

Taking a deep breath, Joshua suddenly shouted, "All the residents around, leave!"

There was no gentle element in his voice, it was all intimidation and coercion: "This is not a joke, this is an order, the time limit is three minutes! Otherwise..."

Before he finished speaking, his feet trembled, and suddenly the air waves roiled, and there was a violent shock and roar like an earthquake. In the horrified eyes of all the surrounding residents, a huge landslide with a radius of more than ten meters appeared on the wide Qingyan street. and cracks.

There is no need to continue talking, this is Chi Guoguo's threat! What else does he need to hesitate? ! In the face of such a murderous person, it is natural that what the uncle said is what!

There was an uproar in the crowd, everyone quickly turned around and went home, called their wives, children and husbands, picked up the most valuable items, and left as quickly as if they were fleeing a disaster.

And after the warning, Joshua didn't say a word, he stared at the empty sky in the distance, and the silver-haired magic machine followed behind him, and countless people walked past him quickly, Go to someone you know.

coming soon.
