Chapter 48 The First Wave of Beasts
The atmosphere in White Harbor Town has become a bit tense in recent days.
Not only will the streets be under martial law, anyone suspicious will be subject to interrogation. At the same time, even ordinary people without magical powers can begin to smell the smell of beasts in the wind blowing from the west.
"found it!"
Urban underground waterways, deep areas.
The Adventurer's Guild once again discovered a sealed location of a god's body, and quickly handed it over to the church members accompanying the team for recovery.
Ryan is among them.
This is already the fourth piece he has found. Originally, for adventurers, it would be an exciting thing to explore ancient waterways, but the current situation always makes people unhappy.
He glanced at Jas. Every time a new body was discovered, this thin half-orc boy could not control his gaze. It seemed that what was excavated was not the items that needed to be sealed, but the entire orc clan.
hope.
There are no other orcs in the town. Some people say that they were rescued by unknown people a few days ago. Some people say that the Knights executed them. But no matter what the truth is, Ryan finds that he is helpless against this situation.
I don't know when it started.
He realized that no matter the five princesses, the orcs and knights, or even the dark forces lurking in the waterways, when they decided to step into this situation, everything was already on an unchangeable trajectory.
It has developed.
"I wonder what Luo Wei is doing now."
Ryan sighed.
If it were him, could he change this trajectory?
…
In the empty Arrowtail Tavern, Luo Wei ordered a glass of ginger ale and drank it leisurely.
The bartender looked at him helplessly.
"Everyone is so busy, but as the champion of the elite competition, you always feel like you have more time than anyone else."
Luo Wei was noncommittal.
And obviously, there is another one who is as free as he is at this time.
"Wow! I got some incredible points!"
Anaining sat opposite him, holding a deck of cards in his hand and letting out a strange laugh.
And Luo Wei didn't play with her at all.
The two people had different reasons for fishing, but they both noticed that the atmosphere in the tavern was very different today.
Although martial law is in place, the tavern is not closed.
And it was still during the day, at this moment when all the teams were out on missions.
"Okay, after you finish this drink, get down to business."
The bartender urged, the anxiety in his words almost unbearable.
Before the two of them could answer, the door was opened and more than a dozen fully armed knights came in. They remained silent and just looked at the two of them indifferently.
Luo Wei took out a bottle of antidote from his arms and drank it, then stood up.
"That's all you have?"
Almost instantly, the knights at the door took out their crossbows and shot at the two of them. The ones who were closer drew their swords and slashed at them, showing their ferocity.
"We will never obey the princess's instructions! Only the second prince is the legitimate one in the kingdom!"
Listening to the other party's roar, which seemed to reveal his intelligence, Luo Wei suspected that these people were not the second prince's people, but framed the blame.
——Since Lovely solved the beast tide to prove herself, how could her other royal brothers and sisters watch helplessly?
When she got the favor from the king alone, the rest was all a matter of calculation.
This group of people obviously have a clear understanding of their destiny, but they are still able to behave like this without changing their expressions at this moment. The time they were arranged in advance is probably too long to be verified.
Like the bartender, who has always been a familiar face in the pub, who would have thought?
Anaining didn't take action, Luo Wei solved everything by himself and spared the bartender's life.
Let Lovely judge whether it is true or false.
At this moment, the door was pushed open again.
"you……"
Looking at the corpses of knights on the ground, Shaye's eyes were a little complicated for a while.
Luo Wei didn't want to explain anything to her, so he put away his sword and asked, "Why are you here?"
Such "accidents" are by no means rare in the town, and Luo Wei only persists in solving them one by one, but he may never be able to clear them all.
"I followed one of the corpses here," Shaye said with a rather displeased look on her face. "Those hateful humans, just because angels are not too afraid of the erosion of the remains of gods, left all the contact work to me alone."
"As you please."
Luo Wei didn't intend to help her find the body, so he shrugged and sat back.
It can be seen that Sha Ye wants to resolve the matter here as soon as possible and return to the temple. After all, she is not happy staying here. There is no ritual barrier in the temple in the world, so she cannot replenish her magic power in time.
But Luo Wei wouldn't let her go back.
If Ryan chooses to join the Arashi God Temple in the future, then the emperor will really be far away. No matter how hard it is for him to reach into the temple, who knows if the relationship that was broken with great difficulty will be broken again.
Because they are bound together by unknown gravity.
The best way to prevent them from contacting Ryan is to stay with him.
Moreover, Luo Wei very much suspected that if her abilities were not restricted, with Shaye's character as the "Crimson Winged Valkyrie", she would most likely die in the next battle.
Therefore, we can only let her retreat outside the frontal battlefield.
"Hey, do you feel like the whole house is shaking?" Anaining said suddenly.
Luo Wei wanted to say no, but Anaining's perception was extraordinary, so he calmed down and listened for a moment.
This voice...
When the door of the tavern was pushed open for the third time, the orderly rushed in anxiously.
"Sergeant Luo Wei Sword! Urgent summons from Her Royal Highness the Queen!"
You know it without asking.
The first wave of beasts has arrived.
Luo Wei and Anai stared at each other. As soon as they stood up from the table, a dark green light curtain shot up into the sky at the backstage of the tavern, and the entire hall seemed to be burning a strangely colored bonfire.
"The remains of the gods returned to their places, at this time?"
Luo Wei looked at the bartender who had been knocked unconscious by him. Shaye also concentrated, knowing that the part he was looking for was no longer there.
"I'll go back to the battleship with you," she said.
…
Outside Baigang Town, in the Mansai Plain in the western suburbs.
Rising from the Wailing Mountains, the end of the wilderness was dyed black.
On the magic battleship, Lovely drove the magic panel and saw that those black lines were densely packed with ugly creatures.
They come in various forms, some have fangs and hooves like wild beasts, some are as big as hills, and some are as strong as cows on all fours. They are neither human nor orcish, but closer to the characteristics of monsters.
.
Thousands, no...tens of thousands...
This is only the first wave.
"I've always been curious, since these things were created in the valley, why not send the battleship over in advance and bombard them?"
Listening to Anaining's question, Luo Wei couldn't help but shed cold sweat on his forehead.
Why do you think you are standing here.
How could the orcs give birth to so many magical species? The mastermind behind them did not show up, and the result of driving the battleship over was that everyone sank together.
Although Luo Wei knew who did it, because of this, Lovely's choice not to attack rashly was actually the right one.
Humans only need to hold on until the spell ends.
And today.
The other party's behavior of testing the human kingdom will definitely pay a heavy price.
All underground exploration teams have been basically recalled, and both knights and adventurers have been deployed on the defense line. Not only Ryan and his teammates, but also Vermeer have been deployed in the battle formation, and have even been placed in the church camp.
The front.
It can be seen that she is very nervous...
I'm afraid they all regret awakening their saintly qualities.
Luo Wei had a clear view of the situation on the deck, but the little boy's worries were unnecessary.
Lovely called them together today, but it was to build morale...
When the ground began to tremble, the charging beasts could be confirmed with the naked eye, and the magic warships high in the sky had already completed their calibration.
Later.
Chapter completed!
