Volume 6: War and Peace in the Black Forest Chapter 14: Battle in the Forest (Part 1)
The city inside the Black Forest is a relatively modern city with a plant-filled atmosphere.
The elves and forest giants living here have used their magic and knowledge to create a modern city that is integrated with the trees in the forest. Although the surroundings are filled with curses and cold light due to the plague, the white and green mixed walls in the distance can still serve as a guide for players.
If there were no landmark building, in this strange world where the ground is full of quagmires and traps, and the only way to communicate is through wooden plank roads hundreds of meters in the air, getting lost would be a matter of minutes.
The entire forest once served as a defense system for these creatures, with each tree having a corresponding outpost and an intertwined network. When there was no plague, the elves and birds and beasts would be the children of the forest, shuttling between these towering trees, and using birds and beasts to convey news of the future. Now that the plague is raging, each outpost is filled with the elves' curses and hatred for the world today, as well as their fear and hatred for the terrifying killer.
They resented why the monster opened the gate of the protected area, why he let all the people in the inner city die, and why such a person appeared.
Walking along the relatively intact plank road through the trees hundreds of meters high, players saw the details hidden in the woods.
A lot of intelligence is stacked in the wooden protective layer inside the outpost and has not been unpacked.
After all, this place has turned into the underworld, and will soon be dragged into another nightmare. No matter how loyal the soldiers are, they will still feel some resentment, and this place has long lost its function as a gathering place for intelligent creatures. Only those scrolls with countless complex patterns that look delicate and gorgeous can prove that there was once a great and elegant civilization here.
The players were riding in the basket and found some information about the abandonment of this place in the scroll, which helped them to complete their mission. But it was because of this information that they knew what the person they were holding on to had done.
"There was a leak in the inner city research department, and researcher Li Lin, as a civilian staff, risked his life to stop it inside."
'The Second Patrol Team decided to burn the plague area and asked Li Lin to open the seal, but was rejected.'
'Refusing is useless. The patrol team entered the plague area and began to conduct inspections. A human may think too highly of himself. After all, he is not an elf.'
"This is a bit strange. The people in the second unit seem to be acting a little stiff."
"That human has rebelled! Li Lin gathered all the internal operation personnel and killed them. He got the formation diagram!"
'All soldiers from the first defense circle, the third defense circle, and the sixth to fourteenth outposts start to return to support. We must capture the traitor Li Lin. This idiot has done something wrong!'
'There is no way to break through! He found the hub of the mechanism! The inner city is locked!'
'We are done! The inner city is ruined! Everyone is moving to the outside! There is no time to delay! Those monsters are still wreaking havoc in the inner city, and we are too late! That selfish monster deserves to go to hell!'
"Just by looking at it, I feel that the boss is really decisive..."
The players looked at the trembling words and quickly imagined what had happened in the city.
It's nothing more than that the upper class is short-sighted and the middle and lower classes are doing nothing. After seeing the crisis, Li Lin acted decisively to turn the tide and locked a large-scale plague in the inner city. Although no one knows why it has resurrected now, judging from the situation at the time, the elves did not seem to admit it, but instead hated Li Lin.
However, this is already commonplace for players. Several old players think that Li Lin is worthy of being the current top boss. This action is decisive and quick. He stole the blueprints of the locked city and burned them in one day. He is really a hero among players.
During the repair process of an outpost, several players took the scrolls and evaluated them one after another. It was also a kind of mutual flattery.
After all, in this game, there's nothing wrong with praising each other a few more times.
But just as a few people were bragging about the operation, a loud noise came from outside.
"When the Lamb is sought from the world, the curtain of the end of all things will be unveiled... Now, the revelation has come, and the 'First Seal' has appeared -"
The moment Li Lin decided to release something, all the players felt an inexplicable sense of fear in their hearts, and they subconsciously looked up at the dark red sky .
The world that should have been filled with strong winds and red light has strangely fallen into stagnation and silence, as if waiting for something.
The sky was silent for about two quarters of an hour, and then there was a sound like thunder.
“Come here!”
“Fuck!”
Standing inside the abandoned outpost in the forest, the team members with cameras on looked at the beam of light rising into the sky in the distance .
When the first seal was opened, the ensuing storm and red light already made the players feel something was wrong, but the subsequent column of light and the dull thunder in the sky really made all the players feel a certain decisive gap.
The terrifying beam of light was like a sharp blade rising into the sky, directly echoing the first seal they had copied. The two beams of light seemed to cut the entire city apart. Countless strong winds and thunders were brewing and roaring around. And the world around them was gradually distorted . Several sharp-eyed barrage players even saw a tree gradually changing into a human form, and shouted in the barrage.
'Are players this strong in the middle and late stages of this game?'
"I saw it! I saw the real body of the lightning! What a huge bug! So disgusting!"
"The sensory nerves have been removed. Go ahead with confidence. If I frown, I'll kill you!"
'Tranquilizer loaded, ready to go!'
'Tranquilizer +1'
'Tranquilizer +2'
"This is really a big boss..."
He is about to drag something else over here.
The captain's expression changed slightly after taking a look at the two whirlpools piercing the sky.
After all, the players were not vegetarians. As top professional players, they naturally knew what this ritual meant. It meant that the entire map was being cut and dragged to another world, reversing the balance between the two worlds.
The blazing white lightning around them looked like thunder and lightning, but in fact, it was the carrier of the power of the death-fearing ritual. This huge and terrifying force was struggling to support the sky, and countless lights around them shot up into the sky, calling for some other pure land that was incompatible with this world to gradually descend here.
'System prompt: The Kingdom of Compassion is approaching...'
“…”
Boss, are you reliable?
Looking at the system prompt that popped up again, several players felt a little cold.
