Chapter 607 #183; [Guardian and Shepherd](1/2)
【Second Ring District · 13:02 pm】
【10 hours of war start】
"City-state news brings you the latest news."
"At 10:19 this morning, the Resistance Army broke through the core area checkpoint and rushed to Central City. The Dawn system did not respond in time..."
"The combat-capable residents have spontaneously formed a guard team to try to stop the pace of the rebels. Xigua Platform will continue to report the latest progress to you..."
"Cities are in a state of stagnation, and Speaker Calby reiterated that all residents should remain calm, and perhaps humans should think about whether the living space we provide for inferior persons has contributed to their growing ambitions..."
In the tavern, the leader of the battle group, Che Kelstia, frowned as she listened to the radio.
"Chief, isn't the goal of the battle group to enter Central City? Now there are a large group of magicians who suddenly appear to help us open the way. Why don't we follow closely?"
Beside Che, the team member Doris expressed confusion.
In the tavern, hundreds of members of the battle group sat quietly, waiting for the leader's instructions, and the needles fell inside could be heard.
Che seemed to want to smile, but he really couldn't.
...No one knew that he did not hate Akto. He even had a heart-to-heart talk with Akto, who was a pseudonym Luves.
Che knew that he was not a qualified leader. He was too emotional and could not respond to people's expectations.
But he cannot show this emotion.
The leader of the battle group - How can you not hate Asa Aktor?
Didn’t their large group gather for this?
"This..." Che coughed dryly and quickly found an excuse: "I suspect the Dawn system will have a backup plan."
"The leader said it right." Ruiying, a player from the remote control legion, nodded. Next to him were swordsman Rimusheng, hacker Fang Yuan, angel player Windsor, and fortune teller Qiuqiu.
Their team did not join the Resistance Army. Compared to Edward, they believed that Su Ming'an would win.
"That city lord is a very dazzling person. How could he be so easily attacked by someone in Central City? I suspect that this is the trapping of the Lord. The Dawn system deliberately let the war go." Windsor said:
"We might as well wait... for the dust to settle."
The members of the battle group were a little unhappy when they heard Windsor praise Actor for "glorious glory", but this woman was the legendary magician after all.
The battle group's plan was initially settled, and they were on the wait-and-see attitude towards the rebels.
Outside the tavern, the black-haired girl who lowered her head to play games met the breathable swordsman Rimusheng.
"I know who you are." Ri Musheng carries two swords and has a calm temperament, like an ancient swordsman.
Luo looked up.
Seeing Luo's dark eyes, Ri Musheng couldn't help but feel a little moved. This girl is famous all over the world in the world of the Lord God.
"You are Yueyue, the first player's comrade and observer." Rimusheng said.
He stared into her eyes: "I have no malice towards you. I am Rimusheng, the Siren of Playa's copy siege in the city. I have fought side by side with Su Mingan. He has saved my squad and I support all his actions."
Luo didn't reply, but just looked back at Rimusheng. Her eyes were clean and as clear as a spring. The long journey of time did not seem to bring her decay.
"Can you... tell me about the conditions for obtaining a special identity? Many people envy your ability to wander between different worlds." Rimusheng said: "If this condition can be made public..."
Luo put down the game console and she shook her head gently.
"I can't say it because of the rules," she said. "[Rules]... are a very important thing, and there is no existence that can disobey it... and this kind of thing is not suitable for public disclosure. I am just a selfish person who abandons his identity as a player."
She turned around, her black hair fluttering in the air, with the fragrance of gardenias.
"——The first player is in Central City now, and the player army is approaching him. Aren't you worried about him?" Seeing Yueyue leaving, Rimusheng said loudly:
"His mother also woke up. Now he was at his most vulnerable time. The edge area was too far from Central City. You are one of the few friends he could make friends with. Don't you want to get close to him and comfort him?"
"I……"
Luo spoke softly.
In her eyes, there is a clear texture like ice and snow.
She seemed to be recalling something, and after a moment, she smiled.
"I believe him."
"He is... the strongest person."
"I'll help him when he said he needed me, but he didn't say it now, so I'll wait."
"I know that there is almost no difficulty to defeat him. Although he is always inferior, I know that he is different from others."
"I always believe that there is light in him."
...
"Prepare - retreat!!!"
With a loud shout, the roar of explosives burst out, and iron powder splashed everywhere.
Edward looked up, swept away the dust in front of him, and looked at the building like a white cross in front of him.
They worked overtime and finally rushed into the scope of Central City. The players were already tired and suffered large-scale casualties.
Not only is there a continuous stream of mechanical troops, but also the city-state residents who spontaneously blocked them, which caused them a lot of trouble.
Even, there are many other players who love the number one player, led by Lu Shu, spontaneously blocked them.
——Whether Asa Akto or Su Mingan himself, they are very popular. There will always be people who protect them regardless of the price, regardless of life and death.
Fortunately, Edward's combat power has reached 2500. The higher the combat power, the more exponential the gap between players increases, and hundreds of players cannot compete with his time domain.
When the blue consumption was about to bottom out - Edward and others finally hit here with scars on their bodies.
The hawks and dogs were broken up, and the blocked residents died in overwhelming artillery fire - now, it is finally time to reap the results.
In front of me is the towering Central City Building, which is a bright pearl of the country of measurement. It once stood like a shining lighthouse in the darkness, and the images of the dawn system once projected in the night sky.
It is the highest-end technology in the three major fields of the city-state's political core, scientific research core, storage of machinery, biochemistry and artificial intelligence. The most elite researchers in the city-state are studying here, and the dazzling leader Aktor is their common teacher.
Now, it has been blocked for a long time, and the building is covered with spider webs and dust, as if no one has been here for a long time.
"boom--!!!"
The flames passed by, and the explosives made a violent explosion. The iron gate of the building was extremely hard and the rebels could not open it.
"Fast! Speed is fast! People are coming from behind, we can't be blocked here!" Player Natalie commanded anxiously, and a supportive mechanical army had arrived in the rear, and fighter planes also appeared in the air. They were likely to be made into dumplings.
"I'll do it." Seeing this, Edward took a bottle of blue medicine.
He opened his arms, and the blue clock appeared behind him. The light and shadow overlapped at this moment, gathering into a radiant shock wave—
The blue light blew towards the iron gate, like a huge wave surging, a fierce dragon.
"boom--!!"
Where the blue light touched, the iron gate began to melt quickly, rotting, and the iron powder scattered like a sand castle rupture, and even the defense guns turned into broken parts.
Looking at the scene that deprived time like a god, the rebels holding guns showed envy in their eyes - the door that could not be opened by the cannon fire was blown away by the magician's power.
Sure enough, obeying [Tawei] is correct. Only forces from other worlds can help them build a better city-state...
They roared, as if they wanted to vent all the injustice and anger. With Edward's order, they took agile steps and rushed towards the iron gate that had a big hole-
In Edward's live broadcast room, the barrage was flying wildly:
【It really won! His Highness Edward has entered the Central City!!!】
[This Central City is so desolate? No one has any, the only conspicuous building is such a cross building?]
[Central City seems to be a dungeon, built underground. Of course we can't see it on the surface.]
[This dungeon is so cool. Players are not just cannon fodder like before. We can really change the situation!! Very involved!]
[It's all thanks to His Highness Edward. He knocked down a whole regiment of mechanical troops alone. He was not crazy. I don't know which guy made up such slander!]
【Always support Your Highness--!!】
[Uh, I'm here to visit me, wait for Su Ming'an to beat Edward.]
[Why are there anyone supporting Edward? Are you just looking at the face?]
【…】
Edward has always been looking forward to playing against Su Ming'an in a non-peak competitive dungeon.
He had lost miserably, but now the organizer has accepted him and he has a strong special identity.
Under the shouts of people, as the leader, he first stepped into the ruined building-
Among the buildings filled with dust like willow catkins, the afternoon sun shines down the skylight like a layer of soft gold yarn on the iron sheet.
In the center of the arc-shaped building is a quiet elevator, which is connected with the surrounding rooms by two bridges, one horizontal and one vertical. People stand on the iron platform, and a bottomless underground area under the gap can be seen.
Their eyes are in the center of their eyes - a young man sitting in a wheelchair.
The direct light fell on the shoulders of his white coat, wearing the light from the sun for him.
Just like the dust of fireflies, the young man was basking in the light, his expression was peaceful and quiet, as if he had not unexpectedly arrived. Everything was gathered in the shadows, besides the round halo around him.
To be continued...
