Two-dimensional rune mark

"Do you think we will be no match for those worms?" Tong Gu seemed to be dissatisfied with Xing Qu's tone of voice, and even dissatisfied with everyone except Feng Ze.

"It's hard to say. Things on the battlefield are changing rapidly, and no one can predict it. Strong power is necessary, but strategy is also necessary." Xingqu looked at Tonggu, expressionless and indifferent.Because he could never forget the damage the orcs caused to his hometown of Hazar that night more than [-] years ago.

Tonggu seemed to feel Xingqu's dissatisfaction with him, and stood up with his hands on the table, his fiery temper immediately surged: "What do you mean, are you saying that I'm stupid? If it wasn't for the order of the Beastmaster, I would kill you now. "Speaking of which, the air in the room seemed to suddenly tremble, and the temperature gradually rose, which was the result of Tonggu's magic power rising in an instant.

"Shut up, Tonggu, sit down." Feng Ze, who was sitting next to him, seemed to be ordering Tonggu. Obviously, although he is also a holy king orc, Feng Ze is definitely stronger than Tonggu. In the world of orcs, he is always stronger. the world of the people.Even if Kiritani was very unconvinced, he could only restrain his magic power and sat down helplessly.

"I don't mean that. If you want to understand me like this, I have nothing to say." Xingqu ignored Kiritani and continued: "Now war may break out at any time, maybe tomorrow they will attack, maybe tonight, so in order to ensure that Our victory, I made the following plan..." Xingqu told them about the deployment of this battle and the strategy to meet the enemy, fully prepared for the war that could happen at any time.

However, he may never have imagined how bad the situation will be for Cosena City one night later.

It was unexpected that "he" would suddenly appear at the moment when he was closest to death.

That night, Starscar stood on the high wall surrounding the city of Cosena, looking at the dense sea of ​​trees made of towering ancient trees in the distance.But what she was looking at was not the sea of ​​trees, but the invisible lightning-like valley at the end of the sea of ​​trees. Just last night, she and a reconnaissance team composed of ten mages found the Zerg's "Crystal Nest" there. ".

A few days ago, Cosena City received a report that the city on the east side of the mainland had been completely occupied by Zerg and was approaching Cosena City.Therefore, the city of Cosena had already begun to prepare for battle at that time, and the soldiers had sharpened their armor and were always ready to meet the arrival of war.

"Why didn't you go to rest so late, standing here to blow the wind?" Edward, who appeared beside Xinghen at an unknown time, suddenly asked.

"When did you show up? I didn't even notice it."

"You lost your mind? What are you thinking?"

Xinghen was silent for a while: "I was thinking about the companions who sacrificed so that I could go back to the city last night. I don't know how many times I have to go through this kind of pain. These five years have been enough. If you lose your father and you. I really don't know what to do."

"I won't die so easily, let alone Uncle Xingqu, you know how strong he is." Edward smiled, as if comforting Xinghen but he didn't want to show concern.

Star Mark indicated a smile and said nothing, turned and walked towards the stairs of the lower city wall, and Edward followed closely behind.But before they reached the stairs, they met a person on the road they didn't want to meet - the orc Fengze.

"Why are you here?" Edward spoke first after seeing Feng Ze, with a solemn expression and a hint of anger in his tone.The black knife clenched in his hand is ready to go.

Chapter [-] Hawkeye

"Why am I here? Haha... If I'm not here, it's a question of whether the city can be kept." Feng Ze's words were relaxed, not like the future of the war at all.He has brown hair, looks handsome, and is high-spirited. He is not equipped with any armor or sharp weapons, and only wears an open robe with a simple vest underneath, which vaguely reveals a strong body.The most striking thing about him is the pair of piercing eagle eyes that seem to pierce people's hearts at a glance.

"In my eyes, there is no difference between you and the Zerg. You suddenly attacked many years ago. Do you know how many of our fellow clans were killed? Now that we are in this city is also caused by your orcs. Can the orcs of the Beastmaster Continent not be able to do so? Like the orcs that exist in the continent of Eden and live peacefully with us, will they only kill brutally?" Xinghen's expression was indifferent, and he asked Feng Ze in a calm tone.

"The orcs of Eden? They are just the descendants of a group of weaklings who boarded the elven treasure ships thousands of years ago. Now they are all mixed with your human beings. The king no longer regards them as orcs. Also, we are the beastmasters. The tyrants of the continent, don't compare us to those worms. If Tonggu heard these words, I guess you would have been killed by him by now." Feng Ze's words were not angry, but rather serious.

"Then why do you still come to Eden? Just in Akaria Adam, your overlord is not enough!" Edward asked Feng Ze with a hoarse voice, but when he met his sharp eyes, there was a trace of heart palpitations.

"There's no need to let you know..."

Suddenly Feng Ze turned the sharp eyes that had been staring at Edward to the mid-air outside the city, but there were only a few in the sky that blocked the moonlight, and the bright black clouds on the edge were wandering.Both Edward and Starscar felt inexplicable.

"The smell of grass and flowers in the distance has become heavier..." Feng Ze smiled shallowly, with a sinister smile, but he was so handsome and handsome.After that, they ignored the star marks and walked forward.Edward did not speak any more, and walked down the city wall with Star Scar.

In the woods with lush greenery covering the moon in the distance, a figure of a person gradually hides in the empty void. His crystal wings are faintly fluorescent, and he is a hedge.

Lu Li muttered to himself in the deserted woods: "That orc is so powerful that he could see through my 'Insect Hidden'. He originally wanted to take the star marks away, but now he doesn't seem to be able to... Forget it."

He walked alone in the woods toward the deep valley at the end of the sea of ​​trees.

The hedge has returned to the "Crystal Nest", which is a circular fortress made of green crystal-like material. Several huge crystals stick out from the middle of the "Crystal Nest" and pierce the huge walls on both sides, embedded in the bottomless. in a huge ravine.This is the masterpiece of the insect beast, the crystal giant bee.

The hedge penetrates the jelly-like membrane at the hexagonal entrance into the "crystal nest".

It was not like a dark valley inside, with countless fireflies gathered on the top wall, illuminating the passages in the lair.Hedges walked loosely through the narrow passage, and at last he came to a spacious hall.There are many crystals around, and the fireflies are entwined and flow on the crystals, so beautiful.

At the end of the hall is a pedestal made of green crystals. There seems to be a slow flow of liquid in the pedestal. Sitting on the seat is a bug man. He saw the hedge and asked, "Where have you been?" His tone was calm and composed, without the arrogance of those in power.

"I don't have to report to you."

"I am the commander of the battle. Even if you are an insect master who obeys the queen, you must obey my orders here."

"I just want to ask if you really want to attack Cosena City? Our land has already expanded quite a lot, and there is no need to take other people's land."

"Of course I have to attack. The Queen's purpose for letting you come here is to help me win." The person on the seat said this resolutely.

"Chiphosphorus, I think you should also understand that the Queen entered the 'fetal period' more than [-] years ago, and handed over all the affairs of Sabal to the insect master - Bai Lan, now Bai Lan is the Queen's agent However, the [-]-year 'fetal movement period' has long since passed, and the Queen has not come out of the cocoon. Since the Queen just entered the cocoon [-] years ago, the person who can use the shadow appeared after the 'Liu Li Jing Palace'. Don't you think it's strange that Bai Lan ordered the invasion of the Luka Banda Empire on behalf of the queen?" Ledge, who seemed to be careless, said at the moment.

"I only know that I am loyal to the Queen. Since Bai Lan, the Queen's agent, has issued the Queen's will, I will implement it."

Hedge lowered his head and sighed in disappointment: "Then when do you want to attack?"

"Tomorrow night, you can choose not to participate in the war." After speaking, the insect man in the seat stood up, unfolded the huge red butterfly wings tucked away on his back, and his hands and feet were wrapped in insect armor like natural armor.Then walked out of the hall through a passage on the side.

Chapter [-] has no choice

"Chiphosphorus is an excellent warrior and general, but it's a pity that he is too loyal, and now it has become his biggest weakness." A bug man with four arms emerged from the right channel, with green pupils and a naked upper body, but his upper body Everywhere was covered with armor-like green mantis insect armor, and even under the corner of the eye there was a piece of insect armor, which looked imposing.

"Qing Mie? Did you even get involved in this fight?"

"I am a warrior and I have no choice but to fight."

"Really? I hope you don't die, good friend." Lu Li's words were bleak, her beautiful face bulging slightly, like a child's temper tantrum.

"I really don't understand you, how could the insect master who was born with powerful power be like you, now there are only ten insect masters left in our clan, if all of them are like you, then it is estimated that the insect clan would have perished long ago, haha... ..." After saying that, Qing Mie also left the hall, leaving Lu Li standing alone in the empty, beautiful hall.

He sat on the ground in the center of the hall, lay down, looked at the dome with glowing fireflies, and thought about what a scene of Zerg warriors and imperial warriors would be on the battlefield tomorrow.

Back at Cosena City, the deployment of the soldiers was completed. A barrier was built outside the city gate and a camp was set up. At the front were three hundred orc warriors led by the holy king orc Tonggu, and at the back were four thousand iron cavalry. The knights of the tribe and their monster mounts, as well as a thousand human wizards, they are the vanguards of this battle, and all of them are powerful.All the remaining combat power will stick to the city, divided into reinforcements and defenders, so that a bug will not leak into the city.

The war has not yet started, but the mood before the battle is more uncomfortable than the battle.

It was just after midnight, and the dark clouds in the sky just dissipated, revealing seven beautiful moons.I don't know if it is dizzy or not, the moon in the sky seems to be covered with a layer of ice fog, which is blurred.

What followed was the low-pitched sounds of monsters resounding in the mountains, forests and various animals, strange, terrifying, and cold.In the camp in front of the city gate, the beasts of the iron cavalry tribe and the beast-shaped beastmen gathered in a group, their faces were hideous, as if they were trying to scare off the enemies lurking nearby, even Tonggu, who was the holy king orcs, and the beastmen who were in the city tower. The same is true of Feng Ze, the magic power of the whole body soared, and the movement caused by the movement alarmed the magicians all over the city.But the feeling that followed immediately made their whole body stand up, their hearts beating violently, and they all stopped at that moment.

The terrifying, weird feeling was fleeting, and when everyone turned around, only to find that their palms were covered in cold sweat.

The star mark at Hei Yu's residence felt the strange feeling just now, looked at Hei Yu with a ferocious face and said, "Just... what is it?" She pulled a piece of oilcloth and looked at the scenery outside, and at a high place only The bright and dazzling lights outside the city gate can be seen overflowing into the high city wall.

The insect people in the valley also felt the same feeling. With the commotion of the insects in the "Crystal Nest", thousands of insect people rushed to the ground like a fountain, but there was nothing on the ground.

In the entire Eden Continent, everyone who can use magic power and feel magic power has experienced the same feeling. Although it is a moment, it is enough to be unforgettable.

It was an unprecedented sense of fear, the fear of an endless magic...

In the early morning, Uruk, the capital of the empire, was surrounded by tornado-like morning mist.A few beams of morning light leaked from the clouds in the sky and penetrated into the fog. Soon there seemed to be a little flash in the fog, and the light gradually spread, dispelling the tornado-like fog and revealing the flowery and vast city of Uruk on the ground.

Countless transparent crystals and broken small spar are suspended above the ground buildings. At night, it is like countless stars wandering in the sky, which is extremely beautiful.

Above, there is a huge stalactite-shaped spar supported land. The first generation of human kings, Adam, discovered this land and built a palace "suspended king city" that lasted for thousands of years. Here is the The residence of the royal family.Ordinary people can only look at it on the ground, out of sight and out of reach.

The flying pterosaurs kept in captivity by the royal family are their means of transportation to and from the royal city.

In the city on the ground, the ministers and nobles of the empire lived in captivity, and they also kept flying pterosaurs in captivity. Every morning, they would sit in the "dragon carriage" carried on the back of the pterosaurs and enter the king city to meet the emperor and discuss political affairs.

Now that the sun has risen, many pterosaurs have carried "dragon carts" and flew to the "suspended king city". The scene is spectacular and rare in the world.

Although the "suspended king city" has been standing for thousands of years, it is still dazzling.Most of the buildings in the king's city rise from the ground, and the momentum is soaring into the sky, and some things are built on the spar that protrudes from the ground like a hill, which is unique.

In a palace in the royal city, there is a man standing by the window looking at the rising sun; watching the flying pterosaur leaping from below the ground and landing on the huge steps in front of the king city; watching the door of the minister of civil and military affairs going up step by step. .He had a sad face, and a pair of pupils of different colors revealed a different look. The red left eye was burning like fire, gushing out, and the dark blue right eye was like a bottomless pool, so deep and elusive.Judging by his appearance, he was only in his twenties.

Chapter [-] The Future King

"Dong dong dong" there was a knock on the door of the palace hall, and then the door opened, and a beautiful maid in a maid costume came in with a plate of hearty breakfast in her hand.

"Prince, you got up so early!" The maid looked at the man standing by the window, who was wearing only a thin shirt.

"I couldn't sleep last night."

The maid said with concern: "Then how can you do it, you are the future king, you can't do it if you don't take good care of your body! Prince Seth."

Prince Set, who was standing in front of the window, turned around and showed a bright and moving smile.

"The current king is not my biological father. If it wasn't for the fact that both of the king's parents and sons died somehow, I would not be the next emperor."

"Why do you say such a thing? You have the power that a king has, not to mention that the king treats you as a parent and son, so he will use you, you are so capable, who else would be more suitable to be a king than you? "The maid put down the breakfast on the table.

The smile on Prince Set's face didn't seem to have changed, it was still so bright.

"Are you going to go to the bedroom to change clothes and wash up? Or do you want to eat here first?" The maid walked to Seth and bowed for instructions.

"Let's eat first! You go to help me prepare clothes and water first, and I will go after I finish eating." Seth treats servants without any air, so he is deeply loved by servants.

The maid walked to the door on the left side of the hall, opened it and closed it.When Seth saw the maid come in, he sat down at the table where breakfast was placed.The bright smile just now was not left at all, as stiff as a stone statue, quietly eating breakfast.

"Prince," a soft voice suddenly sounded, from the shadows under the table behind Seth.A pair of purple eyes slowly emerged from the shadow.

Seth didn't look back, and continued to put food into his mouth, "How is the situation in Cosena City?" The voice was obviously lowered.

"Not very good, there are too many insect races, and besides a few powerful insect masters, there is an insect master who is already in the 'crystal nest' outside the city. His power and his ability to control insect beasts Capability is definitely the biggest threat."

"I didn't expect the cities to the east to be so unbearable, so easily captured by the Zerg... For safety, I will visit Cosena City with Brand. I will set off today, and I believe it will be there in four days." He put food in his mouth, "What about Sandora, don't tell me it's bad news again."

"The situation on Sandora's side has stabilized temporarily. With the help of the beastmaster's slash and the three holy king orcs, the lost ground has basically been recovered. I believe that it is not impossible to capture the Sandora country in the near future. "

"That group of orcs is really useful. It's not worth the effort to get them to Eden. The old guy Kusana's death is also worthwhile. One more thing, I felt a strange feeling last night?"

"Do you feel it too?"

"Do you know what's going on?"

"Sorry, prince..."

"...Where is your real body?"

"The Sandora Frontier."

"You are going to Cosena City right now. With your ability, you should be able to arrive within a day. I have a bad feeling. Before I arrive, if you need it, you will help them, but don't reveal your identity. , by the way, find out what happened last night."

"Yes……"

The door of the bedroom suddenly opened, and the maid walked out of the door with her palms folded in front of her. Seeing that Seth had finished her breakfast, she bowed and saluted, "Prince, the water and clothes are ready, please come into the room to wash and change! Did someone come just now? The servant seems to hear you talking."

Seth smiled at the maid the moment she came out, which was completely different from the cold expression just now, "No! Maybe I have been living in the folk for too long, and I am not used to the eating etiquette in the royal city, you hear Maybe it's the sound I made when I was just eating. Someone said that I was very loud when I was eating! I'll pay attention next time." Seth's words were humorous, the maid rolled her palms and covered her mouth with a chuckle, and then she served Seth washes and changes.

After finishing the outfit, Seth strode to the "Public Affairs Hall". The distance from the bedroom to the "Public Affairs Palace" was not too close. Seth accelerated his pace. Even though he was walking like a fly, he did not forget to smile and say good morning to the servants passing by in the corridor.Followed by two fully armed magician guards.

About a quarter of an hour later, Seth finally walked to the dark passage to the main hall, with two guards guarding both sides of the passage.

The hall is spacious, bright and resplendent, which is commendable.The exquisite throne made of crystals is self-generating and warm, and behind the throne is a fan-shaped wall carefully carved from huge crystals.

The civil and military ministers in the hall have all arrived, and the queue is standing in front. Seth sits on the crystal seat next to the throne, waiting for the arrival of the king.
