Chapter 239 bitter(1/2)
"Let's get straight to the point, King of Monsters, what is your purpose?" the Immortal asked with narrowed eyes.
Then, she immediately waved her hand to clear the space: "You don't need to answer me, I don't care, you talk to him."
After saying that, she closed her squinted eyes completely, as if she didn't care.
At the same time, endless golden light shone out from the chopped space. There was a figure in the golden light. His face could not be seen clearly, but just by looking at this scene, he knew that the phantom of the emperor was coming.
It was just a shadow, but Duke Walder immediately stood up to pay tribute, but he did not kneel down. As a duke who guards the border and has a territory, he only needs to kneel when facing a shadow.
"King of monsters, you are getting more and more beyond my expectations. The blood of the king... I have been enduring it until now. I don't care if the church cannot attack for a long time." The emperor's phantom voice was indifferent, but there was an irrepressible feeling.
Power.
"But I'm not out of control yet, am I? I'm still conscientiously working as a monster according to my original plan, isolating myself, not infiltrating into the empire's power system, and being my border governor honestly, annoying everyone, and it's impossible to be with
I think I have done a good job in forming an alliance with anyone, don't you? Your Majesty." Lu En said with a smile.
As soon as he said this, Duke Walder's face darkened.
Because he knows that there may be no results today. The King of Monsters is still useful. The emperor will not let anyone touch him until the things are used to their full potential.
When the emperor heard this, he put aside his external majesty and couldn't help but said cheerfully: "It is indeed very good. You have always made me feel at ease, even if you collude with high-level vampires, erect boundary monuments without authorization to create independent facts, and even privately
I don't care about neutralizing the Hall of Glow's secret music, bluffing the duke's daughter to do things for you, etc. If you can make the church unable to use its hands, it means that you have done a good job at your job and deserve to be commended.
Ha ha!"
"Then what does your majesty want to reward me?" Lu En hit the snake with the stick. Anyway, there were jujubes but no jujubes and he stabbed two sticks. The emperor has already said this, so why not just ask for it.
"How about I reward you for being able to come back alive today?" The emperor blinked. Although his face was still blurry, the blinking action was extremely clear.
"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty. I'll leave first." Lu En didn't show any pretense. He raised his hand and tore open a portal, pushed Igni in, turned around and left.
The emperor just smiled and watched him leave without doing anything to stop him. As for the immortal, after taking turns to leave, his figure slowly disappeared and disappeared.
If there is no need to use force, then there is no need for her to come forward.
After she disappeared, the Gray Lady emerged. She was responsible for the arrival and departure of the Immortals. After all, the Immortals themselves could not even fly. If the Immortals were nuclear warheads, then the Gray Lady would be delivering ballistic missiles. Both
Only through unity can there truly be no dead ends in the empire.
"How is the arrangement going?" The emperor looked at Gray Lady and asked casually.
"Almost." Gray Lady nodded.
"That's good. When we go back this time, we will try to finish it all at once. You can go back first." The emperor's shadow stood up and ordered the Gray Lady.
Soon, he looked at Duke Walder.
"Uncle Walder, don't be upset about what happened today. Everything is for the empire." The title of the emperor is very close, because Duke Walder is indeed his uncle, and he has a little bit of royal blood.
In fact, the imperial nobles can basically be regarded as one family. They have been intermarried with each other for thousands of years. From the royal family to the major dukes, to the marquis and border earls, almost every family intermarry. Everyone is related to each other, except for the newly promoted
It is almost impossible for aristocrats to have outsiders, but the empire has not had any new aristocrats for thousands of years.
Whether you are a noble or not is determined at birth. Hard work can only determine whether you can be a retainer of a noble.
"What about my daughter?" Duke Walder frowned.
"I promise she will be fine. After all, she is my sister, right? Don't worry, she will come back to you soon, but I think she will have grown a lot by then, and you will be very happy.
Happy." The emperor said vaguely, and then the shadow disappeared.
Duke Walder did not stop him, because there could be hundreds of such phantoms at the same time, and the emperor was extremely good at using them to deal with different things. The territory of the empire was too huge, and there was a lot of information that needed to be processed, and after the death of the Grand Master, he
, has always been unwilling to decentralize the original power of the Grand Master and set up several institutions to help him deal with it. On the contrary, he took all matters into his own hands in this way.
Duke Walder's eyes were filled with uncertainty, but in the end he waved his hand and dismissed the soldiers.
His wife Silverleaf Lord went to the elves. The elves have many methods and exquisite magic, so their daughter should be fine.
He never expected that when he asked his daughter to go out to relieve her anger, she would actually attract two level 10s at the same time. Come to think of it...the King of Monsters had been prepared to do this from the beginning.
But... what is the purpose of the King of Monsters in doing this? What benefits does this have to him?
I can't figure it out, I don't understand.
Besides making enemies, what else can it do?
The flame continent in the sky gradually faded and disappeared, the Fire Giant Throne returned to hell, and everything returned to normal, except for the lava lake and sword marks on the ground, there was nothing else.
At this moment, Lu En returned to Anluo.
At that moment, he almost vomited blood, feeling weak all over his body. The feeling of being almost omnipotent, soaking in the spring water, unleashing various skills unscrupulously, and replenishing various buffs, receded like the tide.
The emptiness in the body will give people an uncontrollable sense of loss, and the feeling of omnipotence will completely disappear before they can be fully experienced.
As if in the blink of an eye, he became a helpless person.
One of them failed to stand still and sat directly on the ground, panting constantly. Even the body of an extraordinary creature began to sweat.
It feels so bad to establish a connection with the power of the realm and then forcibly disconnect it.
However, at this time, Igni frowned and looked at Lu En: "Aren't you going to send me back?"
Lu En took a deep breath, supported his weak body, and looked at the fire giant: "Are you going back? Aren't you going to take revenge on the person who poured water on you?"
"If you don't have enough ability, you can't win." The efreet said simply: "I'm not a fool. If you take me there, although I can beat you, you will still let the woman with the sword come over, and you will still be unable to beat me in the end."
Lu En was a little surprised by this answer. Efreets are an arrogant and violent race. They won't fight if they can't defeat them. This is not their style.
But immediately, Igni's answer relieved him, and the efreeti gritted his teeth and said: "So I want to go back to increase my strength, win over allies, and try to get rid of those mortals at once when I come next time! I don't know
King of names, are you coming?"
"Come on, I'll definitely come next time." Lu En was happy. Sure enough, the free thug was chosen correctly, and the memory in his mind was correct. This fire giant was indeed as petty as a woman.
After making the promise, he immediately built a portal and sent the smoldering Igni back, while he lay on the ground, waiting for his weakness to recover.
It was during this time that Sid finally escaped.
The ghost in the mirror was not with her. The Duke's secret guard lured Kara and Crescent away, allowing Sid to escape alone.
Sid was seriously injured and ejected from the mirror world. Even though 99% of the force of the counter-shock was borne by the ghost in the mirror, the rest was not something she could bear.
She is currently at level 6. She is indeed considered a strong person, and she is indeed a genius. She can advance from level 3 to level 6 in a short period of time.
But she knew the reason very well. It was fed by the endless resources at home. When she learned swordsmanship, her mother taught her step by step. If she lacked insights, she would have a bunch of sword marks engraved with the sword's intention presented to her. But if she lacked skills,
There are rows and rows of cheats in front of you to browse at will. When you are tired from training, there is an unlimited supply of magic potions with no side effects to restore your physical strength.
It is not unreasonable for the nobles to enter the country faster and become more powerful. Compared with the lower class people who lack resources, the conditions of the nobles are much superior.
She has become accustomed to having these on her own, just like modern people are accustomed to drinking water from drinking fountains or direct drinking pipes, instead of digging wells to extract water or settling river water.
So, of course, it will be very uncomfortable when you suddenly lose endless resources.
Walking in a desert, Sid felt dizzy.
Her beautiful face is a little tired and painful, her silver hair is now covered with dust, her gorgeous armor has been broken in half, exposing the inner lining underneath, her magic power is exhausted, and her body is seriously injured.
She was walking in the wilderness and managed to get away.
The ghost in the mirror helped her lure away all the enemies, blocked tracking, and stopped the advanced vampires. Now... there was only one thing left that he couldn't help Sid do, and that was to escape, which required Sid to cross a thousand kilometers by himself.
, ran to the Ontario border and entered the empire.
And the journey in between needs to be made by herself.
The desolate Anluo has a flat terrain with few mountains and slopes, but it is too barren. The entire road is basically saline-alkali land, and plants can hardly survive. It is all yellow and yellow, and you can only encounter some plants occasionally.
Fortunately, not all places are like this. After all, some places are not so desolate. They can encounter rivers and some trees that she cannot name, forming an oasis in the Gobi Desert, which allows her to barely breathe.
However, the river water here is all yellow and viscous, like a soup, full of yellow sand and salt, making it impossible to drink. Sid walked under the scorching sun for a long time, and he was already thirsty and his lips were chapped.
Originally, it was impossible for the sun to shine brightly all the way, but Duke Walder gathered thousands of miles of clouds and condensed the mighty Milky Way, sucking away all the clouds and water vapor around him. Now, Ontario is experiencing a severe drought that is rare in a thousand years.
, if there are no professionals of the same level to restore the climate, it may take a year or two to wait for natural adjustment to come back.
We walked to a river again, but this small river was slow and the water flow was not much. It looked... just light yellow, and there didn't seem to be much sand.
She thought over and over again and touched her lips. By accident, those cracks were already bleeding.
Moreover, she could also see some creatures in the distance, like...deer. It was not like an animal that she couldn't recognize anyway, and it was immersed in the light yellow water to drink.
"Let's try it first..." She thought to herself, half-knelt down, scooped some out with her hands, and drank some tentatively.
"Cough cough cough cough... Pfft! Bah!" She couldn't bear it just after contacting her. It smelled like sand. Half a mouthful of water was filled with sand, and it also had an earthy smell, and...
It is still bitter and salty. The salt from the saline-alkali land has long been melted into it. It tastes very bad and it is impossible to quench your thirst.
There was no other way, so she held on to her injured body and slashed out with her sword. The beast, which looked like a deer but not a deer, fell down at the sound, and Sid also felt a tightness in his chest.
The injury is serious, and if you force yourself to take action, there will be backlash.
Reluctantly walking over, she endured her nausea and drank the spurted blood in large gulps. It smelled foul and was difficult to swallow, but it was the only drinkable thing here. If she wanted to go out, she had to drink it.
She drank so much that she wanted to vomit, but she tried her best to suppress the feeling of vomiting because if she vomited it out, she might become dehydrated.
She has no experience in surviving in the wild, but she is not stupid either.
Then, she cut the meat with her sword, found some dead tree trunks, and added some tumbleweeds she picked up, then used the sword blade to chop the rocks, exploded sparks to ignite the tumbleweeds, and finally ignited the wood, using the priceless sword
Grill the meat on top.
