Carry the Ring of Elden with you

Kenneth Hyde was also used to Roland's behavior. He just shrugged his shoulders, touched the golden beard on his mouth and continued to look at the documents on the table.

"Neferi Lu takes the initiative, well, this is in line with her style." Roland nodded first, and then curiously asked the system in his heart: "But what is this biological unit you are talking about? I am This is the first time I see you unlocking something other than a soldier."

The system replied: [Literally, because what is unlocked is not the soldiers in the border area, but the local creatures in the border area. 】

Roland frowned: "Then if I summon them here to cause trouble, wouldn't it be wrong?"

The system said with certainty: [Host, please rest assured, this will not happen.Since mages from the royal family of Kallia made the greatest contribution in this campaign, two of the three biological units unlocked came from the Lienia area of ​​​​the lake. 】

Roland rolled his eyes slightly and said, "Stop being so pretentious and quickly tell me which creatures can be summoned."

The system follows the good: [Biological unit [-]: Rune bear living deep in the Nimgofu fog forest.I think the host should know more about these Rune Bears than I do, so I won’t introduce them in this system. 】

Ah, Rune Bear.Roland shuddered subconsciously.

Whether it was Roland's memory of the game or his real travels in the border area, the fear of the rune bears still remained.When he was trapped at the edge of the foggy forest by the teleportation trap left by Patch, he was still an ignorant faded person. He walked in unprepared and was taught how to behave by the huge rune bears in the foggy forest.

Even after he became stronger later, Roland had to deal with rune bears carefully every time, otherwise even if you are the King of Elden, you will still have to suffer from two big bullies.

This rune bear seems to be huge and slow in movement. In fact, even Roland riding Torett cannot get rid of these giant bears with cruel personalities. It is common for them to be knocked off their horses.

Anyway, in the game, when Roland hadn't learned any spells yet, the enemy he least wanted to face was the Rune Bear.

Even if it is difficult to kill, the most common drop after a hard kill is "golden excrement". When thinking of this, Roland felt a little bad.

"Run bears, well, that's good. I can summon them and place them in the forest within the current territory of the Golden Federation." Roland thought to himself.

[Biological Unit [-]: Giant lobster living on the surface of Lake Lienia.The meat of giant lobster is delicious and suitable for many kinds of delicacies. The premise is that the hunter can survive the attack of giant lobster and kill the opponent. 】

This one is even more heavyweight.Roland looked like an old man on the subway.

The king of shrimps knows how to move the capital.Everything else is fine, except that it has a long-range sniper water cannon that makes it hard to guard against.

If you have a friend who plays Ring, you can ask him about the psychological journey of "first seeing the sewers of the King's City, drinking the blood bottle, coming to the bottom, and seeing two giant lobsters."

"There is a spacious river outside Leiden City. I can arrange the giant lobster there to make the Leiden River a natural protective barrier to prevent enemies from sneaking into Leiden City from the waterway." Roland nodded.

As for the "giant lobster with delicious meat" introduced by the system... well, whoever wants to eat it can just catch it themselves. Roland doesn't want to experience the shrimp king's water cannon attack anymore anyway.

However, it seems that a warning must be erected along the Leyden River to prevent some innocent outsiders from being accidentally injured by the shrimp king.Of course, if someone insists on committing suicide to improve the food for the Shrimp King, Roland can only respect the blessing.

[Biological unit three: The mysterious crystalline man group also comes from Lienia of the Lake.Sorry, we don't know much about crystallized people in this system.The host is also asked to make his or her own judgment. 】

Roland's eyes lit up after hearing this. He didn't expect that the last one actually unlocked the Crystal Man.

He paced back and forth by the window, and in an instant he thought of many ways to use crystallized people.

In Roland's memory, whether in reality or in the game, except for being very powerless against weapons that focus on hitting like sledgehammers and axes, Crystal Man did not have any obvious weaknesses at other times.

Especially their hard shells are a natural nemesis against soldiers who use light weapons.

Spear Crystal Man.gif.Roland's mind couldn't help but the voice of "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!" appeared in his mind.

Not only are the crystallized beings extremely hard, they also use equally hard crystallized weapons, not to mention that some of the crystallizing beings can also cast powerful crystal magic.

Roland looked at the ether required to summon three biological units. Rune Bear and Giant Lobster both cost 300 ether, while Crystal Man cost 500 points.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the ether meter, which had just increased by nearly [-] ether points. He prioritized summoning the Crystal Man.

After the failure of the Austrian Law Council in the first battle, the second battle will definitely be more difficult. Roland believes that the opponent may use some more destructive tactics.

Although the Storm Legion under Neferi Dew are brave and good at fighting, there are many spells in this world that Roland doesn't know the effects of.Despite the blessing of the golden tree, Roland did not think that the blessing of the golden tree could make them immune to the effects of all spells.In particular, the Austrian Law Council will definitely jump over the wall this time, so summoning the Crystal Man can be said to be an insurance policy.

[If the host can still resolve the attack of the Arcane Council, then this system can unlock new NPCs and high-level units for you next time. 】The system said in Roland's mind at this time, and at the same time showed him the troops to be unlocked next time.

Roland took one look and couldn't take his eyes away. What was clearly displayed on the system interface was: [Advanced elite unit: Kalia Knight (to be unlocked)].

[In order to prevent the host from misunderstanding, this system needs to be explained.The Kalia Knight to be unlocked is not Mugram. According to this system, Mugram will be unlocked as an elite NPC.What the host summons are other Kalia knights who are sealed in prisons or become spirits.But please rest assured, the host, their strength will not be compromised as a result. 】

Roland nodded clearly. He remembered that a mountain demon among the Kalia knights was sealed in a prison, and several Kalia knights were dead but their spirits still existed in the border area.If he remembered correctly, the blacksmith Iggy was also wearing the cloak of the Troll Kallia Knight.If he could be summoned, he, known as the "strategist", should be able to give a lot of effective military advice.

Then Roland glanced at the NPC that the system said was to be unlocked, and was stunned for a moment.

[Puppet Master: Biddy (to be unlocked)]

Could it be this old Biden?

Chapter 143: She really wants to play dirty

As the Storm Legion was victorious in the first battle, Neferi Rue took up her position in Ingweir, leaving behind one of her wings, and led the Storm Legion soldiers who had previously attacked and stationed themselves near the Red Rock Mountains together with the Calian mage troops led by Blaze. , the purpose is to block the pace of the next round of army attack by the Offa Council.

Neferi Lu stood at the heavily guarded main entrance of her military camp, looking at the crystallized people that were being brought in and disguised as dark blue humanoid crystal statues. She glanced at the Kalia mage who was counting the numbers next to her and asked: "Why Roland? Are you going to transport so many crystallized people to me? Are you selling them as sculptures?"

The Kalian mage who was being questioned turned his hood and discovered that the person asking the question was the new Storm King. After performing the Kalian royal etiquette to show respect to her, he said: "That's not the case, Your Excellency, the Storm King." Mr. Roland is worried that after the defeat of the Austrian Law Council in the first battle, he will use dirty tricks to harm you. He has hereby urgently summoned these crystallized people from the border area and transferred them to Pulin City."

Roland summoned a total of 20 crystal people, which consumed him 10000 ether points.However, since the dead soldiers of the Austrian Law Council provided a lot of ether, it did not cost much extra.

"A dirty trick?" Neferi Lu shrugged, and the female warrior from the wilderness showed a disgusted expression: "I hate these sneaky rats the most. If they can't be beaten head-on, they start to do things behind their backs. .”

Mage Kaliya pouted under his hood and did not comment on what Neferi Lu said. He couldn't tell her how mages could engage in melee combat with warriors.

Oh, that’s not right, there are some mages who like to rush into the battlefield roaring and waving their magic robes.Mage Kalia thought of the group of crazy mages from the Haimo Classroom in Rhea Lucalia Academy and rolled his eyes.

"There are 20 crystallized people in total. Lord Storm King, please place them in the tent together with these pyroxene crystals. These creatures don't need to eat and sleep like us." Master Kalia quickly finished counting the crystallized people. The number of these lifelike crystal figures is standing or sitting quietly in the pyroxene crystal filled with light blue glow. Ether in the pyroxene continues to enter the crystallized human body, and after a while, the crystallized human body The same light also floated out into the pyroxene.

Neferi Lu nodded. She had seen these creatures from a distance on the way to Platinum Village from the border area, but she had never observed them up close.

At this time, she patted the smooth shoulder of a crystal man who was sitting quietly cross-legged. As a result, the crystal man who was photographed suddenly stood up and picked up the crystal spear in his hand. His eyes lit up with a faint light and searched. Enemies arise.

It didn't matter as soon as it got up, all the rest of the resting crystallized people around it moved and picked up their weapons and looked this way, scaring Master Kalia so tightly that he clenched his staff.

But when this awakened creature discovered that the person slapping itself was Neferi Lu, the light in its eyes visibly jumped a few times, as if it was confused.

Then the Crystal Man touched his head and sat back cross-legged.The other crystal men who stood up also returned to their previous posture after realizing that there were no enemies and continued to swallow something from the pyroxene crystal men.

Master Kaliya breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed his tense mood. He looked at Neferi Lu with a somewhat resentful look under his hood and said, "Dear Lord Storm King, I know that you are very fond of these crystallized people. I’m curious, but I hope you won’t disturb them too much.”

Neferi Lu didn't know how terrifying these crystallized people were, but he knew it very well.In the past, when Lijenia was still prosperous, countless people died every year because of accidentally breaking into the territory of the crystallization people.

Just now when he saw the twenty crystallized people in front of him holding weapons and looking at him at the same time, Master Kaliya's heart was about to burst out of his chest.

Neferi Lu also heard the tension and complaint in Master Kaliya's tone, and nodded, indicating that the other party could leave first, and then she could observe these crystal-like crystallized people.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

There was silence in the upper house of the Arcane Parliament, except for the sound of the mysterious etheric runes surrounding the ceiling.

Alois sat in the chair of the President, squinting his eyes and touching his long gray beard, not knowing what he was thinking.

"We lost the first battle. Due to your stupid actions before, the morale of the soldiers and residents in the country is very low now that the news has spread. How do you think your faction should shoulder this responsibility?" A member of Parliament broke the calm in the hall of the House of Lords and asked Representative Cebroro stretched out his hand in the direction of where he was sitting and pointed an accusation.

Everyone who was pointed at by the congressman fell silent.Although they slandered the proposal in their hearts and the other party agreed to it, under the current situation no one dared to admit that this big pot was their own responsibility.

"Low morale is a trivial matter. The point is that the Arcane Council has lost a very large number of magic weapons in this wave, especially the three alchemy colossi that were built at a huge cost and were captured and destroyed by the enemy. Do you have to spend enough money to make up for such a heavy loss?" The congressman looked at the silent House of Representatives opposite and said aggressively.

As soon as these words came out, the originally silent party could no longer remain silent.

Good guy, if you let the other party continue to talk like this, the blame will all be placed on yourself.

"You still have the nerve to say this?" A member of Parliament slapped the table and stood up. Although he was dressed luxuriously but without grace, he shouted angrily: "Then I want to ask how you did your investigation work? Why did the enemy ambush Hongyan? Our spies have not spread any news about the mountain range? What is that huge earth dragon walking on the ground?? Your intelligence department asks for so much money from the parliament every year, where is the money spent? If it weren't for you If the intelligence provided is insufficient, will our army be ambushed in the Red Rock Mountains?"

This congressman's mouth was like a barrage of questions, and the congressman opposite was not a vegetarian. He blushed and started arguing with the other party.

Afterwards, the MPs from both factions stood up and began to quarrel more and more. The MPs from the other factions sat in their seats and watched with a smile on their faces, as if losing the first battle did not affect them.

In fact, it did not affect them, because these factions did not send any soldiers or support any materials in this war, so they were so calm.

They also heard from the escaped mage about the reasons for their failure.After listening to the mage's information in detail, they believed that a large part of the reason for the failure was that they failed to detect the opponent's ambush in the Red Rock Mountains, which led to the opponent's preemptive attack with forbidden techniques. After their own formation collapsed, they sent soldiers to fight with them. The beast of war routed our own soldiers.

They regarded the dragon soldiers as the war beasts unique to the Golden Dynasty. Every big country has more or less war beasts, so the Austrian Parliament was not much surprised.

The congressmen of these factions are thinking about how to extort more benefits from the congressmen of these two factions. They are also greedy for the huge economic benefits in the field of magic weapons.

"That's enough. Do you still look like a glorious member of the House of Lords of the Austrian Parliament?" Alois raised his staff slightly and knocked it heavily on the floor, and the House of Lords fell into silence again.

Alois sighed slightly in his heart, and looked at the quarreling councilors with his narrowed eyes showing disdain.

Nothing big can be accomplished by pushing and shoving.He secretly thought, and then Alois stood up and said loudly: "Those mortals often say that victory and defeat are common matters for military officers. Why, you just lost a tentative attack, and you are anxious as if the Arcane Council is about to be defeated. Has the Golden Federation fallen?"

"I'm sorry, President Speaker." A sparse apology came from the conference table.

Alois shook his head slightly, deliberately pretending to hate iron and steel: "You guys, just after a slight setback, you said bad words to the colleagues you get along with day and night. You...how can I do this? Don’t worry.”

A female congressman from Cebroro's faction took the initiative to stand up: "Master Speaker, I have a new countermeasure. The people of the Golden Federation cannot prevent it even if they think of it."

Alois looked over, and he probably guessed what the other party was going to say, but he still nodded to him with an encouraging look: "Speak bravely, kind Senator Skylar."

The congressman named "Skylar" saw the President's encouragement to her, and even though she was a little older, she couldn't help but feel a little excited.

She cleared her throat, gathered her thoughts and said, "Your Excellency, the Great Speaker, all the people of the Golden Federation are remnants of the ancient dynasty who have recently awakened from the Endless Forest. Their understanding and response to magic must still be at that time. . And since our Arcane Council was established as a nation, our spells have been studied, modified, and refined by various great mages, and they have long been completely different from the spells of ancient times."

The other council members who heard these words also nodded and discussed among themselves in low voices.

Everyone present is a smart person. Although they don’t know what the specific plan that Senator Skylar said is, they all guessed the general direction as soon as the words came out.

"So, I propose to use large-scale negative spells against the Golden Federation's army. Although I know from the intelligence of the Charles Empire that the opponent has the blessing given by the golden tree and can be immune to most low-level curse spells. But I think they will be unable to stop large-scale negative spells. And the Golden Federation seems to trust its blessings very much. We will definitely be able to catch the opponent by surprise this time." After Skylar finished speaking, he looked at Yaluo with burning eyes. I hope he agrees with his claim.

Alois closed his eyes and thought for a moment, nodded, then opened his eyes and said: "Okay, according to Senator Skylar's suggestion, use the large-scale spell 'Dead Wood Meets the Boundary' against the Golden Federation."

Dead Trees Meet the World, as the name suggests, after activating this spell, the enemy's vitality will be automatically absorbed in the area, and the absorbed vitality will automatically be converted into the purest ether, which can be directly absorbed by the mage to improve his own abilities.

After the domain spell is activated, the first effect is hypnosis, then the poisonous mist, and finally the life drain.

Generally speaking, many mages who practice black magic will use similar spells to draw vitality from other life forms to quickly improve themselves. However, the Arcane Council, which prides itself as an upright mage, will not use such spells.

Therefore, the Speaker of the House of Lords was surprised by his words, but in the end they approved Alois's decision.

Because they really need a victory to prove the power of the Offa Council and to get help from other countries in this war with the Golden Federation.

"Your Excellency, Mr. President, please let me be the host of the magic circle of 'Dead Wood Meets the World'." A council member who had been silent stood up and took the initiative to say to Alois.The emerald green robe on his body and the emblems of flowers and trees on the robe indicate that this congressman is a mage from the Institute of Life.

Alois looked over, recognized the mage, sighed slightly, and nodded with some respect.Because this mage can be said to be an old fellow at the same time as himself.

The Speaker said: "Professor Varadimi, I deeply regret what happened to Fabio and Gildas."

Although he was over a hundred years old, the great magician of life still looked middle-aged and said to Alois: "My two apprentices are not good at learning. If they die in a magic duel, I will naturally have nothing to say. But what is hateful is that the Golden Federation actually hunted down the Alfa Council and killed Gildas at home. If this revenge is not avenged, my other apprentices may think that the teacher is incompetent."

Skylar, who was sitting in her seat, almost laughed out loud when she saw the old antique from the Institute of Life personally taking charge of this spell.She thought this way, how should she describe her feeling at this time in the words of a young person?It seems that I should say... is this sure?

A few days later, at night, the Red Rock Mountains.

At this time, the moon was already high in the sky. Since the Red Rock Mountains were some time away from Puling City, only the golden light from the golden tree behind them could be seen on the top of the mountain.

In the Storm Legion camp, the soldiers responsible for night sentry patrolled meticulously.The soldiers in the tent only took off their outer armor to rest. If anything unexpected happened, they would immediately put on their armor and pick up their weapons.

One kilometer away from the camp, a group of figures wearing the robes of the Arcane Council used magic to eliminate the sound of their footsteps in the moonlight, and came here furtively.

"This is where the magic circle is set up." An old voice suddenly came from the cold night air. Master Vladimir took off the hood of his robe and looked at the quiet Golden Federation in the distance with sharp eyes. military camp.

Chapter 144: Crystallized Man (Part [-])

The moonlight is like silver, reflecting the magic crystals scattered on the soil. These crystal gems stand tall and mysterious, mysterious and sacred, and emit various strange lustres.

They were arranged randomly, but under the guidance of the wonderful mystery, the magic crystals pieced together groups of magic pictures in the soil as if they were fate. The magic crystals were continuously outlined with mercury and completed stroke by stroke. .In the end, they were connected to each other to form magnificent magic arrays, magnificent and mysterious, like invisible power being released, covering this land.

Such a scene seems to have an indescribable mysterious atmosphere, and people can't help but feel the power of magic contained in it. It is as if magic and the earth are integrated here, and it is even more beautiful under the moonlight.

Not long after, the design and layout of the [Withered Wood Meets the World] magic circle was completed, and its exquisiteness and beauty were fully displayed under the moonlight.But now, the magic circle lacks only the last element, which is the mage who serves as the eye of the circle.Only through the power of the mage can the magic power contained in these magic crystals be perfectly released.

The great magician of life, Vladimi, walked straight towards the formation without any hesitation.On his body, the green life ether was like entangled vines, constantly fighting.

The moment Vladimir stepped on the formation, the magic power released by a large number of magic crystals at the same time began to gather on this land.Suddenly, it seemed like countless rushing rivers were rushing towards this magic circle.This surging breath twists the surrounding air, and along with the rhythm of life ether on the body of the great life magician Varadimi, is deeply rooted in this land, becoming the last big puzzle piece needed for the magic circle. .

However, the experienced Vladimi understood that if he stopped for a moment, in this magical environment, the soldiers of the Golden Federation would soon notice the strange aura revealed by him and detect signs that something was wrong.So at this moment, his actions must be quick enough and there is no room for error.

The magical atmosphere around him has gathered to the extreme, and the depressing atmosphere seems to have reached its extreme.But Vladimi was not nervous at all. He took a deep breath and perfectly combined his power with the magic power gathered in the formation. With infinite vitality, the magic energy burst out and filled the entire space.

The emerald green life ether on Vladimir's body flows slowly along his arms, like a free fish swimming in the water, shuttled among the strokes of the magic circle.But when these flowing ethers of life entered the paintings that were rendered by magic crystals, the color changed amazingly - from emerald green to strange deep purple.Subsequently, this color gradually dissipated and transformed into a colorless, invisible, blindly harmful poisonous ether.

Under the control of Vladimir's spirit, this toxic ether quickly drifted towards the Golden Federation like mist.This sinister aura is light and light, with a mysterious aura that makes it difficult to grasp.

Varadimi still maintained the operation of the magic circle calmly, looked deeply at the enemy camp in front, and said solemnly: "In half an hour, we will send troops to confirm whether the magic circle is effective. Once confirmed, we will immediately notify the rear mage troops. , complete the deadly magic bombing of the enemy camp in the shortest possible time."

The mages on the side looked in awe, all saluted to Varadimi, and replied respectfully: "As you command, Master Varadimi."

Within the Golden Federation's camp, a large amount of colorless and invisible toxic ether is already floating in it.

Since the helmets worn by the exiled soldiers covered their faces, they didn't feel anything unusual at first.But as time went by, the patrolling soldiers began to yawn, and more and more soldiers felt sleepy.

Some of the quick-thinking exiled soldiers widened their eyes and realized that this strange phenomenon of falling asleep on a large scale was not normal.However, when they tried to sound the alarm, they found that their hands and feet had become as immobile as mud, and they could not even remove the horn used to alert friendly forces from their waists.Even if he opens his mouth, he can only make a soft sound, which cannot be clearly heard under the helmet.

This sudden weakness and helplessness caused these exiled soldiers to watch everything happen, but they were unable to do anything.

One after another, the exiled soldiers fell to the ground, their whole bodies relaxed and fell into a deep sleep, as if controlled by some mysterious magical power.Soon, the Golden Federation camp was enveloped in this unexpected and ruthless sleepiness, and everyone was immersed in this dreamlike world.
