Lord of War

Vol 3 Chapter 212: .The uncovered conspiracy

  In an instant, only Sean stood alone on this battlefield.

  But on Xiao En’s face, there was no rejoicing for the rest of his life, only a solemn face.

  He looked at the direction of the Thirteen Deadthorn Coffin and Christina, who had fled without a trace in an instant, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he sighed after a long time. At this time, he realized that his tiger’s mouth was a little bit painful, and when he looked down, he realized that the few times that he had caught the black death wave had actually shattered the tiger’s mouth. It was because of Christina’s "absolute light". Healed, but only the wound was healed, but the pain left before the wound has not been completely eliminated.

The power of Absolute Light is that it is within the scope of the domain, which can speed up the recovery of all injuries, while preventing side effects such as bleeding and ulceration. Of course, according to Sean’s speculation, there is also the effect of immunity to all toxins, Sean guesses. The law that Christina mastered should be biased towards the cure that the goddess of life mastered. Although this field does not directly improve Christina’s face strength, but with the title of Fearless and Christina’s attributes and abilities that are close to bugs, the effects of this field may have an effect on her. Bigger.

  Perhaps, the magic boy saw this, so he gave up fighting.

  In the Thirteen Deadthorn Coffin, Ghost Sword Demon Boy is the one with the strongest desire to attack, and he wants to provoke a fight almost all the time. Basically, as long as the mission of such a guy is involved, it is impossible to avoid fighting. Unlike others, there is the possibility of avoiding the fight.

  But, such a person with the strongest desire to fight, actually chose to avoid when facing Christina, which is enough to explain a lot of problems.

   Xiao En glanced at the devastation that was all over the ground, and in his heart he also had a more intuitive understanding of the contest between the sanctuary powerhouses in this world.

  Although due to the effects of the domain, most people will subconsciously ignore the battle situation during battle. But the damage caused by the sanctuary powerhouse will not disappear.

When Christina broke out for the first time, she left a huge pit on the ground that was over a meter deep and covered five or six meters in diameter; and immediately after the first contact between the two sides, that The air current that erupted when Christina hit the black death wave even tore all the ground within 30 meters.

Although in the domain it seems that the collision of the two domains caused cracks in their respective domains, the actual impact on the material world is also not low, because afterwards Christina hits every punch on the black death tide. . All allow this range to extend from one meter to several meters. Sean can judge this. It is purely because the surrounding cracks have extremely obvious multi-level distribution.

  As for the place where the black death wave was smashed for the first time in the realm, it was not very far away, but in fact, it was hundreds of meters away in the physical realm. Because there was also a very obvious collapse—not only a few big trees were crushed by the black dead tide, but there were also huge pits several meters deep and three meters long on the ground.

  In the distance, there was a rapid rushing sound.

  Obviously, it was the sound of people on both sides of the stronghold and camp rushing over when they heard the sound of fighting.

  Sean did not dare to stay here, not because he was afraid of the siege of these people, it was just that he was not very good at explaining the current situation. So soon. He turned around and left quickly. With his current strength, it makes no difference whether he can ride a horse or not. The horse that he got from the camp before was just to disguise his low strength.

  Soon, Shaun returned to the stronghold under construction at the entrance of the Water Monster Vault.

  As Sean expected, there were not many guards in the stronghold at this time, and it was obvious that most of the people had gone to the point where the incident occurred. No one was surprised by the appearance of Sean, but Sean just thought about it. After all, at this time, the deep belly area of ​​the entire wilderness has been "unified" by Mai En, so the human beings who can move freely in this area must be companions. Therefore, no one will investigate anything.

  So Sean soon returned to the Water Demon Vault.

  As soon as he entered the square, Xiao En found something wrong. Originally, when Xiao En and those people left today, there were many corpses in the square, but at this time, except for the blood on the ground, all the corpses were missing, and there was no residue left. I think Sean also knows whose masterpiece it is. It was just that at this moment he was not sure that he was the only person in this water demon secret, so he did not speak out, but ran quickly towards the central hall.

  However, Sean stopped halfway through the run, because Cecilia and others were walking out of the central hall.

  Thinking about it carefully, the old lich seemed to be able to sense the reaction of the biological characteristics, so he could naturally infer the person from this, so it is not unusual to know that it was Sean who came back.

   "Are you all right?" Cecilia asked eagerly.

"It's okay." Xiao En shook his head, and then even explained what happened after leaving the Water Demon Vault today. Of course, he did not hide the fact of obtaining the two drawings, but the process of obtaining them was skipped. "I didn't. After discovering the Pearl of the Deep Sea, it is estimated that this thing was either placed in the stronghold or carried by Mann.... But I guess the possibility of the latter is relatively low, because I have already probed today, and Mann is preparing to put everything All his treasures are transported here, and this place should be regarded as his headquarters soon."

   "Then are we going to search here now?" Rorty Kabas asked.

"If I search alone, the progress may be slower, so I hope Harding and Rorty you two can help." Sean said, "Moreover, the wild land is very insecure right now. The Thirteen Coffins of Death Thorns. It seems that four of the people are here in the Wildlands... Now that this information has been learned by the people in the Peace Council, I estimate that this place will soon become a battlefield."

   "The Thirteen Deadthorn Coffins!?" Both Roti Kabas and Cecilia were taken aback, with an incredible tone in their tone.

   But the others are blank.

   Sean is not surprised that Rorty Kabas and Cecilia know about the thirteen coffins of the Deadthorn.

  How to say the former has been mixed in this surface world for more than ten years, even if you don’t know the strength structure of the higher level of Deaththorn, but the title of "Thirteen Coffins" must have been heard. And Cecilia, in other words, was once the daughter of the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Lumber. Even if she didn't want to know this, she would hear rumors related to it more or less, and even saw similar information when she was studying in the Maggie Empire academy.

  The only people who really don’t know the title of "Thirteen Deadthorn Coffins" are the old lich, Hitley, Hina, Lanster and Harding.

   But they don’t know. But look at the solemn expressions of Cecilia, Rorty Kabas and Sean. I also know that these people are not easy to mess with. Of course, what gives them a clearer understanding of the current situation is the Peace Council that Sean just mentioned-in contrast to the existence of Deadthorn, the Peace Council is the whole continent from three-year-old children to a hundred years old. Organizations that are familiar to all.

  In the perception of these people, anyone who has a relationship with the Peace Association is a big demon.

  In order for his companions to better understand the existence of the thirteen coffins of the Deadthorn, Sean also had to explain a little bit about Ghost Sword. Devil Boy, Undead Girl Wendy, Black Death Tide and others. By the way, I talked about the other ten thirteen coffins.

   "I said how could there be five strong auras suddenly appearing. It turned out to be like this." After hearing what Sean said, the old lich couldn't help but nodded, "It turned out to be like this."

  Sean wanted to respond casually, but soon he realized the difference between the words of the old lich: "Five shares?"

   Harding, Rorty Kabas, and Cecilia's faces changed transiently when they heard the words. Hitley and Hina, who reacted slowly, also woke up. Only Lanster was still blank.

Even if the old lich thinks that Undead Girl. Wendy and Ghost Sword. Demon Boy are very powerful, then there are only four people in addition to Black Death and Christina, so the fifth strong aura Who is it?

   But this answer. Before Xiao En and others could understand, the old lich suddenly stretched out a bone finger to point in a certain direction. There was a sudden sound of glass breaking in the air, and then a middle-aged man wearing a black robe and holding a black staff that was as high as a person appeared in front of the crowd so abruptly. Of course, the scene he appeared in front of everyone at this time was a few steps backwards, his originally ruddy face suddenly turned white, and his Adam's apple surged, as if he had swallowed something.

   "Dark Prophet!?" Shaun's face appeared shocked.

"It's not him, it's just a clone projection." The old lich said with disdain, "but there are a few methods. Normal people need to consume a lot of magic power to realize the projection, and the projection can touch things. This is a level that is close to the power of God, and your projection... also possesses decent fighting strength."

"I didn't expect there to be a Lich here either." The Dark Prophet's expression was very calm, and the paleness quickly disappeared and became ruddy again. His eyes swept away from Sean and the others. Then he said, "Of course, I didn't even expect to see Grand Duke Void here, as well as a demon descendant, a dark elf, and... a mermaid, and even... the priests of the Church of Life."

  No matter where it is placed, the team formed by Sean at this time is indeed enough to be called the word "wonderful".

  First of all, there are the underground camp and the surface camp. The contradiction between these two camps cannot be resolved at all, but at this time, Sean is living in friendship with Harding and Rorty Kabas. Secondly, it is the coexistence of the Lich and the priests of the Church of Life, which is also a very puzzling combination. And because of these two completely different situations, the appearance of Lanster, the mermaid, is not so surprising.

  Dark Prophet, is a middle-aged man who is between 30 and 40 years old in appearance.

He has a handsome face and exudes a very mature temperament. If his identity at this time was not exposed by Sean, most people would only think that he was a dark prophet at first sight. A knowledgeable and mysterious magician. Of course, if he changes his costume, he may also be able to act as a successful businessman, an expensive nobleman, etc., because the noble temperament exudes from him is enough to make him have a great disguise cost.

However, the person in front of him, relying on a deliberately misleading interpretation of a prophecy, provoked a war between the two great powers, causing millions of deaths and displacement of tens of millions of people, and all of this Just for his revenge. His behavior will naturally arouse the high attention and pursuit of the Peace Council. Therefore, in the following fifty years, the Dark Prophet "dead" in the hands of the Peace Council as many as eleven times, but every time the Peace Council thought he had been killed, it didn't take long to hear him again. News of turmoil everywhere.

  Until the eleventh time, the Peace Council did not realize it. The Dark Prophet is not a human being. And every time he could predict his own death in advance. In order to arrange the relevant aftermath work, disguise his own death so as to avoid hunting down.

  After the eleventh forged death, the Dark Prophet received an invitation from Deadthorn and became one of the thirteen coffins of Deadthorn.

  If the thirteen coffins of the dead thorns are really to be ranked according to personal strength and combat effectiveness, the Dark Prophet may not be able to enter the top five, but if he is alone in the strategy and cruelty, he can definitely be ranked in the top three.

   Just as the ghost sword is involved. The mission of the devil boy will inevitably be the same as the ghost sword. Involved in the task of the Dark Prophet. Then it must be related to war.

In connection with the Tree of Life Fragment and the elven troops and mercenary groups that escorted the Tree of Life Fragment before, Sean has roughly figured out what the dark prophet’s conspiracy is: to provoke all the elven tribes of the entire wilderness. Hatred of humanity.

   Although the components of the Wildlands are complex, the four major races, namely elves, barbarians and dwarves, and orcs of various races, occupy nearly three-fifths of the Wild Council seats. The remaining two-fifths are divided up by lizardmen, half-orcs, kobolds and other humanoids or sub-human species.

  The main problem with today’s savage civil strife is the barbarians.

When Sean destroyed the first and last snake course of the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance, it was not only the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance who suffered losses. The surrounding countries that occupied the entrances and exits of the Wild Region also suffered different degrees of losses, plus the previous Wild Council’s The cooperation between Wang and the outside world was stabbed out by someone who was interested. As a result, it led to internal divisions. In fact, the Wild Council is now in name only.

at this time. There was the emergence of the main combatants and the stability maintenance factions.

  Almost all the orcs and nearly one-half of the barbarians are the main combat faction, while the other half, such as the barbarian king tribe, the stone hammer tribe, and the dwarf tribe, constitute the stability-maintaining faction. If at this time, provoke the anger of the elves against humans, the main battle party will gain a large-scale absolute advantage. If the stability maintainers do not want to be annexed by the wild "law of the weak and the strong," then they can only Choose to play.

  In the wild and chaotic, the first to bear the brunt is the relatively weak forces in the surrounding regions.

   There is no doubt that Shaun’s Void Principality will definitely be the first place to be attacked. With the current strength of the Void Principality, it is impossible to stop the entire wild land from flooding out of the nest-this is equivalent to the military strength of an old empire. And once the Void Principality could not stop this fierce tide, then the next situation would be obvious: With this as a breakthrough, the entire southern continent would be completely plunged into chaos.

Seeing Sean’s fluctuating expression, the Dark Prophet suddenly spoke: “It is rumored that the Void Lord is agile, good at peeking and knowing the whole thing. He has no better grasp of the situation. Now it seems not fake at all. Obviously you have found out. My plan."

  The plan of the Dark Prophet is to turn the conspiracy into a malevolent one.

  Through the conspiracy of "provoking the elves of the savage land to hate mankind", thus "towing the entire savage land to attack the Void Duchy". Although this kind of scheme is very ruthless, it is completely different from the usual policy of Deaththorn: After all, the business of Deaththorn is mainly assassination, even if it is the conspiracy provoked by the dark prophet, except for the first revenge. , After joining Deadthorn, they all served assassinations.

  At this moment, how could such a thing be initiated to provoke the chaos of the entire Southern Continent?

   "What good will it do you to plunge the Southern Continent into war?" Xiao En frowned and asked.

  This time, he came to the Wildlands. In addition to breaking through to the upper level of gold and completing the task of strengthening the body, he was also preparing to break through the sanctuary. On the other hand, he was also an ally who wanted to win the Wildlands for the Void Principality. However, if the Dark Prophet’s plan is successful, then Sean’s plan must be in vain. As a result, because of his trust in Sean, a series of changes in the Void Duchy to welcome the participation of various tribes in the Wild Land will also be implemented. It's all in vain.

   "Put the Southern Continent into war?" The Dark Prophet was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled, "I think, Lord Void seems to have misunderstood something."

  Hearing this, Sean's brows frowned even tighter.

  But at this time. On the contrary, Cecilia is more prone to keenly discovering the question: "Your goal is only to target the Void Principality? Is it just a foil to throw the Southern Continent into war?"

"Almost." The dark prophet smiled, "As of this day, it doesn't matter if I make the plan clear to you.... My purpose is just to avenge the Void Principality... Well, strictly speaking, it is to avenge you. Grand Duke Sean Connery. Although I don’t know how you learned about the location of one of our five lairs of the Deadthorn. But you use this as a deal with the Peace Council and let it let you provoke the Principality of Lane and Darby. The war between the kingdoms of Ang is indeed very beautiful from a commercial point of view."

  Hearing the words of the Dark Prophet, Sean knew why the other party wanted to target the Void Principality, and the original horrified mentality was calmed down at this time.

  Of course, he also received the prompt sound from the system at the same time——

  【Your relationship with Deadthorn has been changed to: Enmity. 】

  This is probably because the dark prophet spotted the problem. In this way. Can also be explained. When Sean activated the Eye of Truth after seeing the Dark Prophet, why did he emit such a strong red light?

"But you should be clear about what kind of existence our Deadthorn is? So I think when you make this transaction, you should expect that our Deadthorn will make a deal after learning that one of the five lairs has been destroyed. What counterattack, right?" The dark prophet still said calmly, "However, I did not expect that the Void Lord would appear in this wild land. This is a bit out of my expectations, but unfortunately the picture on the prophecy did not describe clearly. .Otherwise I should have known...but you can rest assured, anyway, the assassination action against all the high-levels of the Void Principality is already on the agenda, so at this time the other thirteen coffin members who went to the Void Principality will not find you. It will also solve other people."

"Resolve it all together?" Hearing the words of the Dark Prophet, Sean's mind quickly went through the historical development of the game at this time. Although he can't remember clearly, he can be sure of thirteen. There are probably only three people in the coffin who are idle and doing nothing at this time. "Are you really a place where you can presumptuously over the Void City? If it were your thirteen coffins, it would be almost the same, just rely on the Dark Realm Death Knight. , Demon Soul and Death Sword, maybe they still can’t handle it, right?”

   Hearing Sean’s words, the dark prophet’s face changed slightly.

The reason why his face changed was not because of what Shaun called “unsure”, because in fact, the three of them were arranged by Deaththorn to assassinate Shaun. As long as they were given a suitable opportunity, the three sanctuary powers It’s not difficult to solve Sean’s strength. It's just that Deaththorn didn't expect that Xiao En would run to the wild, so the three people who arranged to kill Xiao En were naturally going to be empty.

  The reason for the real slight change in the face of the Dark Prophet was that Sean accurately named the three members of the thirteen coffins in this operation. When it comes to the fact that Sean knows that one of the five lairs of the death thorn is extremely hidden even inside the death thorn, the dark prophet suspects that there is a traitor inside. Even the Dark Prophet was wondering whether there was any arrangement in the Void Duchy on the Peace Council, otherwise, how could Christina appear next to Sean by such a coincidence.

   "It seems that we are the one who underestimated Your Excellency." The Dark Prophet said solemnly.

  The more the dark prophet showed this look, the more disturbed Shaun was. Because he knew that this dark prophet would soon pass on these words that Sean was saying to the other members of the Thirteen Coffins, and even the higher-level people of the Deadthorn. In this way, the next time the plan for him will be more perfect, and the force of the shot will be greater.

   "Anyway, I'm just here today to say hello, Sir Sean, we will have some time later." The Dark Prophet saluted Sean, "Next time, we will definitely prepare for the death thorn before we strike you."

  Speaking like this, the figure of the dark prophet gradually became transparent, as if he was ready to leave.

But at this moment, the old lich, who had not spoken, spoke: "I said...you just come and leave when you say that. Wouldn't it be too dismissive of me? ......Since you dare to appear here and still have such an arrogant tone, then don't leave at all."

  Almost when these words were finished, a brighter purple flame ignited in the hollow eyes of the old lich.

In an instant, the air around the Dark Prophet suddenly shook, as if someone reached out and slapped a glass bottle filled with water: countless visible ripples vibrated beside the Dark Prophet. Come. At this moment, the Dark Prophet, who had faded the original shadow to almost become transparent, was like a heavy wound, and suddenly spouted a mouthful of blood, and then his transparent figure became exceptionally clear.

  At this moment, everyone remembered that in this space, there is still a Lich!

  What is a lich?

  That is, at least, a powerful existence of Tier Twelve!

  The twelfth-order is a concept again?

  That is the existence of legendary level!

  Although the Dark Prophet can be promoted to a legendary existence in only half a step, as long as he is not promoted for a day, he is still just the peak powerhouse of the upper sanctuary.

  In the boundary between the upper sanctuary and the legend, there is no such thing as a quasi-legendary.

  If it is a legend, it is a legend. If it is not a legend, it can only be the upper sanctuary for a lifetime!

  What’s more, Sean doesn’t think the old lich is an ordinary legendary powerhouse.

  This product has been imprisoned in that distorted space for an unknown number of years. Even if its strength is damaged, it is not comparable to ordinary legendary powerhouses.

It is clear.

  This very arrogant dark prophet is going to be out of luck today. (To be continued~^~)
