Lord of War

  The martial arts of the gold group, the fierce competition is even more fierce than Sean can imagine.

Because the No. 1 arena has not yet been repaired, the Lane Arena uses the nine arenas from No. 2 to No. 10. Therefore, the competition is scheduled to be held every morning and afternoon, that is to say every day in Lane. There will be 18 sets of martial arts competitions in the arena. However, because the first day is the first day of the Golden Group Fighting Festival, there are actually 20 groups of competitions, but these 20 groups alone have caused 15 people to die in battle, several seriously injured and disabled, and 10 I am afraid that several people will not be able to participate in any battles in the next few months.

  It stands to reason that after the first day of the event, there should be twenty people who will advance to the second round. But when the real game is over, there are actually only a dozen people who can continue to participate in the second round.

  The result of this casualty, by the next day, became more intense and intense.

  A total of 36 people participated in the 18 groups of competitions. In the end, fewer than ten people were able to continue to participate in the second round of the competition. Together with the ten people on the first day, there were only a handful of thirty people. If this casualty rate continues, I am afraid that no more than a hundred people will be able to advance to the second round. This level can no longer be called a knockout, but a complete and thorough death match.

  This situation became particularly serious on the third day.

  The old hatred of the silver group, plus the new hatred of the first and second days of the gold group, a total of nine people died on the spot in the eighteenth group of games on the third day, and four people died after the rescue failed. One person could not fight again for the rest of his life, and a magician was turned into an idiot by magic. Only three people successfully entered the second round and ensured that they could continue to participate.

  When you see this news. Sean was dumbfounded.

  In his impression, the martial arts festival in the game was the carnival season for the players. In fact, all players did treat this as an activity task in the game. After all, it was at the time when the first expansion was opened, and the mainstream level of the players was basically in the Silver Realm, so it would be in the Kingdom of Lane. Tens of thousands of players have signed up for the Wudou Festival. The scene of the fight was naturally very spectacular and intense.

  Because of this, the gold group event has become a kind of gambling pastime among players. They only need to consider who can bet to get the rewards. As for other things, they are simply out of the scope of their consideration. In fact, no matter how powerful an npc is, it is always just a piece of data for many players. Represents synonymous with experience points, rewards, equipment, etc. No one cares about whoever lives and lives, whether it is heroic or humble.

   "At this pace, it is estimated that you can skip the top sixty-four and start from the top thirty-two." Xiao En sighed, "but what is the reason for such a tragic situation?"

   "It seems that Robin Principality picked it up first." Rena is now following Sean, not just a follower. She is also responsible for intelligence collection and many other tasks. "Because of the eldest son of Prince Lorne. So from the first day, the people from the Principality of Robin met the people from the United Nations of the Karosha tribe and did not leave any hands. The battle ended with the deaths of the people of the Karosha tribe and the United Nations."

   "So it just turned white-hot yesterday?" Sean asked in surprise.

"Yes." Rena nodded. "The people of the Karossa tribe and the United Nations launched a fierce counterattack yesterday. And there are old grievances between Fascism and Lane, and Robin's Principality and Lane are also unable to reconcile. Because of the contradiction, they all chose to make the first move yesterday. After all... the true purpose of the Golden Group also has the purpose of weakening the main power of the enemy country."

"This kind of white-hot outbreak is expected to usher in a new round of **** soon." Sean curled his lips. "You better be careful. People in the Fascist Kingdom and the Hales Kingdom will definitely choose to keep an eye on it. I shot, but since I am the strongest silver, I don’t have the right to speak for them in the silver competition, so I guess they will definitely attack you extremely targeted."

"This situation has long been expected." Cecilia said with disdain, "If you didn't forbid us to turn over all the cards too quickly, how can they speak.... This time I think it's the Kingdom of Fascism. A few golden powerhouses are more threatening. People in other countries should not be afraid. Of course, this can only prove that we are better than other countries at the level of personal power. I am still not optimistic about the Kingdom of Lane."

"Currently, few people are optimistic about it." Shaun shrugged, "Lane wants to be truly stable, and it will take at least five years.... It is not so much to digest the heritage and wealth left by an old kingdom. Easy. And even if Ryan is given five years, it still can't change the minds of some extreme people. If Ryan's royal family does not deal with the problems of the old Darbion people well, then internal friction alone may make this new kingdom possible. Become history."

   "War is like this." Cecilia obviously has a great feeling about this issue. "It does not necessarily mean that a country is destroyed, it is true peace. Unless there is only one kingdom left on this continent."

"It is precisely because of this that the Wudou Festival has military exercises." Xiao En smiled slightly, "Now, you should know what the Wudou Festival means?... This kind of seemingly peaceful but actually bloody. Consumption is the most terrible thing. Think about the gold powerhouses who have died these days, this is about to catch up with the sum of the gold powerhouses who died in the war with Darbion. But for other neighboring countries, The pressure they need to endure is minimal, because their contestants are selected, but for us, Ryan...hehe."

  There is no need to say the following words for Sean, and Cecilia and Rena can also understand them.

  As long as it continues to consume like this, it will not be as simple as five years for the Kingdom of Lane to regain its vitality. In other words, the tragic situation that is now completely chaotic. Maybe this is the situation that other neighboring countries want to see most, or it may have been the script they arranged. The only thing to say that was beyond their expectation was probably the situation in the silver group. This is probably something that Robin Principality and the Kingdom of Fascism did not expect.

  However, Sean guessed that after seeing that his strength is beyond their imagination, Philip from the United Nations of the Karossa tribe and the nobleman from the Kingdom of Hales will definitely withdraw from the silver competition. At that time, the championship and runner-up should be arranged by him, the girl who killed the second son of Prince Lorne, and Du Yin. Although it looks like Ryan's victory on the surface, it is actually a bit of advantage. They didn't get it either, but instead made them a target that Ryan's neighboring countries need to focus on in the future, because Shaun believes if there is a chance. These countries will certainly not mind using assassination methods to make them completely disappear from this world.

  Martial Fight Festival, the sacrifice is life.

  In a blink of an eye, the Golden Group's martial arts festival has officially entered its fourth day.

  But in the Ryan Arena, it started to be filled with madness. Almost every ring area is full of blood that makes people excited. Fortunately, there are at least many wise people in Ryan's senior level, because from today, there are suddenly nine more sanctuary powerhouses in Ryan Arena. It ensures that each arena area is personally supervised by a strong sanctuary. As long as the battle between the two participating parties reaches a level sufficient to judge the victory or defeat, these sanctuary powerhouses will forcibly abort the next game.

  In this way, it naturally caused a lot of people's dissatisfaction, but when the power of the sanctuary powerhouse was completely released without any cover, no one dared to express any dissatisfaction anymore.

   However, in this way, almost all of the sanctuary powerhouses sitting in King Ryan’s capital were thrown into Ryan Arena.

  From a strategic perspective, this is containment.

  Many conspiracy theorists always feel that this must be a conspiracy plan by fascists, Robin, Hales and other countries. They must be planning something. This naturally also includes Sean. Because as a player, any unreasonable things are worth the player to explore and figure out, because often they can find many clues from here, thus chasing a miracle.

  It's just that the fourth day has passed, the fifth day has passed, and the sixth day has also passed in a blink of an eye.

  Everything is calm and terrible.

  And I have to say that with these sanctuary powerhouses in charge, the casualty rate of the Martial Arts Festival will drop.

  This is naturally a good thing for Ryan. After all, if we continue to fight like this, this loss alone will be enough to ruin Ryan’s stability for the next two to three years. After all, this time the martial arts festival will be held. Ryan will also be able to see if he can reap a few creative talents. Of course, people in other kingdoms don't mind digging corners, but success or failure depends on the sincerity of the parties.

  Shaun did not think too much, he only knew that after today, tomorrow will be the silver group game.

In the competition of the top five, there will still be a bye, and the remaining four people will fight in two and two groups. The system is still a single elimination game. The two people who win the game and the one who has a bye will finally compete for the championship, the second quarter, and the third place. Candidate. But Sean believed that whether it was Philip or the Prince of Hales, as long as they met him, they would definitely choose to surrender in the first place. Of course, if you meet your own person in a dark face, then there is no way.

  But, as he promised to the Marquis of Flores, he was determined to win the silver category.

"Okay, we can rest for a while after tomorrow." Xiao En smiled, with an unprecedented relaxed look on his face, "The goods from the Chamber of Commerce should be almost delivered, and we will have time to receive it. Treat it as a rare picnic time in the suburbs.... After you get the two crystals of elements, you can feed them to marshmallows together. Speaking of which, I'm really curious about this little guy after feeding the crystals of four elements. , What will become of it."

   "I'm also quite curious." Cecilia smiled, "But after this martial arts event is finished, do you have any plans?"

"There are still a lot of things left to be done, I plan to..." Sean thought for a moment, and then said, "There are several promises that must be fulfilled. After all, the longer the delay, the more I feel that the burden on my shoulders will be greater. Heavy. Also, Andrew told me one thing when he left, I think..."

  Before he finished speaking, Xiao En’s face changed drastically. Suddenly stood up from his chair.

  A kind of bone-cold breath, instantly permeated the entire Duke’s mansion. In the next second, there was a strong sense of vibration. Sean almost didn't even think about it. One swoop rushed towards Cecilia and directly threw her to the ground. However, the place where she was standing originally collapsed directly, one that could accommodate one person. The opening of the hole appeared at Cecilia's feet.

  At this time, Sean and Cecilia are in the study on the second floor. This room corresponds to the restaurant on the first floor. When everything is fine, Sean will come to this room to read a book or take a break after lunch. And Cecilia would come here to accompany Sean when he was okay. Of course, no one would bother Sean and Cecilia when there was no emergency.

  But the current situation is obviously in an emergency situation.

  But strangely, no one came to tell Sean at all. It felt as if there were only Sean and Cecilia left in the entire Duke's mansion.

  But if you listen carefully. But you can hear the sound of weapons fighting and crazy shouts of killing outside. But to Sean, these voices felt very far away, as if they were shouting from a very long distance, but Sean knew very well that these voices were all over the entire Duke’s mansion-corridors, atriums, In the garden, there are sounds of fighting everywhere.

  Shaun’s heart sank: When was the Duke’s Mansion invaded? And Rina and the others didn't even have the opportunity to warn them in the first place?

  But before Shaun took any action, the floor of the entire study began to shake more strongly, and it felt like someone was taking explosives to blow up the entire Duke’s mansion. Then the next moment. The ground of the entire study was completely shattered, and everything in the study fell into the dining room on the first floor. I simply smashed the restaurant into a mess. The same bookshelves, the books on the bookshelves, and the furniture in the study were all broken.

  Fortunately, at the moment when the ground broke, Sean had already picked up Cecilia, and then a few of them fell steadily to the ground on the first floor with the help of the force, without being injured by it.

   "What the **** is going on?" Cecilia said with a look of surprise as if she had just recovered.

   "Invaded." Sean said coldly, "This speed is so fast...I just noticed the breath..."

  Speaking of this, Sean was stunned for a moment, then his face changed transiently, pulling Cecilia and quickly retreating. Almost without even thinking about it, with a sudden wave of his right hand in the air, he had already held the Black King in his hand, struggling to smash all the objects blocking the road, and directly cleared a channel out.

  At this time, all the scenes that were blocked from the field of vision were finally completely and clearly presented in front of Sean.

  But when she saw this scene, whether it was Sean or Cecilia, there was unconcealable shock and anger in their eyes. However, Sean had more understanding and affirmation than Cecilia, because he already knew who the enemy was.

  At this time, what appeared in Xiao En's vision was a **** scene like a Shura field.

  There are already several corpses lying on the ground, but these corpses are not soldiers, but servants in the duke’s mansion. But at this moment, their faces are showing an extremely hideous scene. The nails on their hands have even been opened, and there are countless wounds on their bodies. As for the organs and the like, they can be seen everywhere, even before they die. At the last moment, what remained in these people's minds was still an attack.

  A little further away, there are still figures fighting.

  But these people who are fighting are not enemies from the outside world, but the guards in this mansion-the snow wind guards brought by Marton!

These guards are also showing hideous looks at the moment, raising weapons in their hands to attack any creatures that are active in their field of vision, whether they are people, livestock, or their companions, and they swung down their butcher's knives mercilessly, even if their bodies were scarred. , They still wielded their weapons without fatigue and were fighting together.

  Looking at this scene in front of you, who would not be clear about the facts?

  These people are all affected by the negative effects of frenzy, and then kill each other to death!

"Da da-"

   A clear footstep sounded slowly.

  The owner of this voice does not walk fast, but this rhythm, like a drum beat, strikes directly on the hearts of Sean and Cecilia like a magic sound, making them feel unusually uncomfortable. However, compared to Cecilia, Sean is better, after all, the damage of the soul and spirit system basically has no effect on him, but even this still makes him feel a little sick.

   But soon, the footsteps stopped, and a figure appeared in front of Sean and Cecilia.

  "It's you!?" Cecilia was a little surprised to see the person coming.

  This person is the purple-haired middle-aged man that Sean and Cecilia met in the tavern. At this time, he took off his cloak, and was wearing a black trench coat and robe that matched the floor, and his long purple hair was combed very neatly. His hands were tucked under the robe, and he did not pass through the sleeves of the robe. Compared with the arrogance that he had seen at first, the temperament exuding from his whole body was more bohemian and free.

  But what Sean is looking at at this time are the eyes of the other person: one eye is red, and the other is blue, which looks strange.

  The middle-aged man did not pay attention to Cecilia, but stared at Sean firmly, and then said softly after a while, “It looks like you guessed it was me.”

   "The power of frenzy." Xiao En said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect your speed to be so fast. As soon as I noticed your breath, you already controlled everyone in the entire mansion."

"I am too lazy to infiltrate bit by bit, and if you are the person I guess, as long as I slow down a step, you will be ready to fight back, so I have to work harder." The middle-aged man's voice It is not heavy, on the contrary it is very light, but it sounds like it has a unique charm, "I only need one thing in your hand, as long as you give it to me, then I will leave here immediately."

When he heard the middle-aged man’s words, Xiao En let out a sneer. In his eyes, the other person’s body exuded a black luster, which obviously represented the color of incompatibility and blood revenge. Obviously there are two options that can only live one out. If he still believes the other party in this way, then he will be blinded by his true eyes. But at this time, Sean still asked: "What do you have with me?"

  He must figure out who this person is in front of him!

"I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself." A smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face, which made the whole person's charm sublimated at this moment. "You can call me Edward, or call me whatever you want. Okay, to me the name is just a code name."

  Shaun was silent.

  "What I need is a notebook, which records some very important content to me.... Usually, people who get this notebook will call it the Demon Hunter's Handbook. His last owner was Yoda."

  Shaun’s pupils shrank suddenly.

   "It seems that the codex is indeed in your hand."

  Seeing Sean’s reaction, the middle-aged man knew that his adventure was worthwhile. (To be continued...)
