Chapter 143 Emergency
Surrounded by the crowd, several players watched Qingqiu and Ferguson swagger into the Scarlet Chamber of Commerce.
The way those senior NPCs smiled cautiously at Qingqiu made their teeth almost break.
Where is your pride? Is there any dignity left?
After the group of senior NPCs left, a steward who had a lower status and was not qualified to follow Ferguson into the hall for discussion suddenly saw a few players who had not moved yet out of the corner of his eye.
Even though they were already unhappy, it was even more unpleasant to look at them.
He walked over quickly and scolded loudly.
"What are you guys looking at?! That's Mr. Ferguson, is that what you can look at more of?
"Why don't you go to the warehouse and move the next batch of goods!"
"Don't even look at your own identity!"
Why don't we just take a look at how many people were struck by lightning? ?
RNM, your vice-president went to Geguiqingqiu to open the carriage door in person! ! Why don't you question him? ?
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt sad.
They are all players, and Qingqiu is treated as a guest by various high-level NPCs, and they are surrounded by people who eat, drink and be treated well.
It's good for them. Not only are they not qualified to follow them, they also have to move the damn goods
We are all human beings, why is the gap so big? ?
For a time, the Scarlet Chamber of Commerce, which I had worked so hard to enter, no longer felt good at all.
But these players didn't know that Richard didn't notice them at all.
There were so many people that their seats were almost squeezed into the grass next to them.
I wonder if the hard-hit guys will be hurt again if they know this news.
After Ferguson took Richard and the senior executives of the Scarlet Chamber of Commerce to greet each other, he quickly sent them away in the name of dealing with important matters.
Then he took him into an extremely luxurious room.
There are countless defensive magic arrays carved on the surrounding walls. Judging from their appearance, they can resist the dragon's breath.
Even if an outsider comes in, they will only think that the businessman is afraid of death.
Ferguson's identity is the best disguise.
Richard saw that after the door was closed, no one from the crowd came in, and he couldn't help but be a little confused.
Ferguson saw his confusion and said with a trembling voice.
"The Scarlet Chamber of Commerce has absolutely no connection with the Scarlet Council. The Scarlet Chamber of Commerce is an out-and-out formal chamber of commerce, and its members are all residents of Temple City with innocent wealth."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and removed the concealment power covering his body, revealing the conspicuous magic inscription on his forehead.
"This room contains a powerful magic circle that cannot be explored by outsiders."
As soon as the words fell, Ferguson, who had been full of momentum just now, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his breath immediately weakened.
Like a candle blown by the strong wind, it may be extinguished at any time.
"We can't delay any longer, my injuries have worsened
"The power of that drop of holy dragon's blood has been exhausted, and we must return to the Scarlet Council immediately."
Richard quickly helped the other person sit down.
Opening the attribute panel, I found that the negative buff that reduced the serious injury status by 50% and reduced all attributes by 70% was now increased.
Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately asked.
"How do we enter the Temple City?"
He hasn't gotten the Dragon Crystal yet, but it's an A-level hero.
After Ferguson took a deep breath, his face became paler.
Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at the carpet embroidered with exquisite patterns on the ground.
"Pull back the rug for me."
Richard nodded, bent down and slowly lifted up the thick carpet.
A conspicuous colorful pattern was revealed on the ground, with a strong religious connotation.
But other than that, there was nothing unusual, not even the slightest fluctuation in magic power.
"There is a crystal bottle in the corner of the oak bookshelf. Take it and pour the powder inside on it."
Richard immediately stood up and found a crystal bottle from the bookshelf by the window, which was filled with crystal clear powder that looked like shards of glass.
Unscrew the cap of the bottle, pour it slightly, and tap the mouth of the bottle lightly with your finger.
Brush the powder inside and sprinkle it on the floor bit by bit.
In an instant, a bright light flashed, and a magic circle hidden in the pattern slowly appeared in front of the eyes.
Richard's eyes lit up, good guy, how can this thing be so hidden?
Ferguson saw that nothing happened to the magic circle and he was relieved.
"This is a two-way space teleportation array, connected to the magic array in the city. It is an item I found from ancient ruins.
"This teleportation array is different from other ordinary magic arrays. It does not consume the surrounding magic power when teleporting, but directly uses the power of space. The movement caused is very weak, even the top spellcasters can hardly detect it."
Richard's eyes lit up. This thing is obviously a high-end product. I wonder if he can get it.
Ferguson stood up with his extremely weak body, and Richard immediately helped him stand in the center of the magic circle.
A mysterious spell sounded, and in an instant, the magic array on the ground flashed with light.
The space in front of me started to blur.
The next second, the two people appeared in a wide basement.
The surrounding walls flashed with the same magical inscriptions as in Ferguson's bedroom.
The shiny black wooden floor vaguely reflected the light of the magic lamp.
The first thing Richard saw was a middle-aged man with only one arm left standing up from a stool.
After the one-armed man saw Ferguson emerging from the magic circle, his eyes showed unconcealable surprise and fear.
His expression changed again and again, as if he didn't expect him to appear at all.
But after discovering that the other party's aura was extremely weak, he immediately suppressed the emotion and tried to return to his natural state, speaking with a bit of dry excitement in his tone.
"Mr. Ferguson, you are back. Elder David and President are waiting for you"
Richard narrowed his eyes. There was something wrong with this guy.
I opened the attribute panel and took a look. I saw that this was a level 9 hero with average attributes and nothing special.
Ferguson, whose injury was rapidly deteriorating, was distracted and did not notice these details.
"Activate the magic circle and send us to the headquarters"
Richard's face looked a little ugly. Is this just a transit station?
The one-armed man's face showed a bit of joy when he heard this, and then lowered his head when he saw the sharp look in Richard's eyes, as if he didn't dare to look at him and Ferguson.
Turning around, he took out a bottle of red powder from several boxes placed flat behind him.
Walk not far from them and sprinkle the powder on the ground.
In an instant, a bright light flashed, and another magic circle appeared in front of him.
Ferguson braced himself and said.
"This is a special stronghold leading to the headquarters of the Scarlet Parliament, but it can only be used once."
"After use, this stronghold will be abandoned."
Richard stared without speaking.
"You are ready, my lord"
Richard looked at the one-armed man who had not raised his head and had a timid temperament.
His eyes were getting more and more wrong, and this guy always gave him a strange feeling.
For example, when he was studying in the past, he lived in the school and climbed over the courtyard wall to hang out. When he was about to enter the school early the next morning, he was hit by the class teacher and felt guilty.
At this time, Ferguson was exhausted from suppressing the injuries on his body and had no time to care about anything else.
He motioned for Richard to stand with him in the center of the magic circle.
Richard frowned, but still stepped forward to stand side by side with him.
The one-armed man recited a spell, and in an instant, the magic array on the ground flashed with light.
Then the space in front of him began to blur.
It wasn't until the moment before the transmission that the man raised his head, with relief and excitement in his eyes.
A bad feeling arose in Richard's heart.
There is definitely something wrong with this guy.
The moment the space teleportation array is activated.
He pushed Ferguson hard and staggered out of the teleportation array with him.
Brush~
The light flashed, the teleportation array was activated, and the two of them had already left its envelope.
Ferguson woke up suddenly and turned to look at Richard.
Before he could ask a question, Richard shouted coldly.
"There's something wrong with that person!! This teleportation array is probably a trap!!"
Ferguson was startled and turned his head suddenly to look at the one-armed man with a frozen smile on his face.
The tone was angry.
"Odo?!"
Even though he was seriously injured and it was difficult to even stand, the one-armed man was still frightened and took a few steps back.
He gritted his teeth and threw the crystal bottle in his hand directly into the teleportation array.
Richard's pupils shrank, and dozens of gravels flew out with a wave of his hand, directly knocking away the crystal bottle.
But the magic circle has a strong suction force. Even if it is knocked away, it will forcefully suck the crystal bottle in.
Brush ~ A large amount of red powder falls into the magic circle.
The next second.
The light from the magic circle was like a flame doused with gasoline, bursting out with extremely majestic energy.
Click~
The teleportation array couldn't bear the energy and cracked directly, and it seemed that it might collapse at any time.
Then an illusory bloody figure condensed in mid-air.
The head has a pair of short horns, the face is extremely ugly and ferocious, and a slender tail swings behind it.
It looks very much like the legendary evil being.
"Devil?!"
Ferguson lost his voice.
How could a devil appear in the most secret transfer station of the Scarlet Parliament? ! !
Something happened to the Scarlet Parliament!
As soon as this thought came up, the devil's shadow shattered and turned into a surge of pure energy.
Brush~ directly dragged him into the teleportation array.
It all happens too fast.
Richard wanted to save him, but the majestic energy was unable to resist even Ferguson's exhaustion of strength. The gravel he controlled was suppressed as soon as it flew out.
It was a powerful force far beyond his imagination.
"Richard, go to the Black Oak Manor in Block 17 to find Knowles"
Ferguson's voice suddenly rang in my mind.
The next moment, Ferguson, who was enveloped in bloody energy, disappeared from sight along with the bloody light.
The teleportation array was finally activated.
Click~
There was a sound of breaking glass, and the formation in front of him immediately shattered after Ferguson was teleported away.
In this hall, only the stunned-looking Richard and the excited and crazy one-armed man were left.
"Hahaha, the great master has arrived! All rebellion will be annihilated!!"
As he spoke, he looked at Richard fiercely, this human being almost ruined his good deeds!
At this moment, ten thousand grass-mud horses were running in Richard's heart.
Seeing that the dragon crystal that can create an A-level hero is about to be obtained, the person who handed out the task rewards is missing. Is there anything more fucked up than this in the world? ? (End of chapter)
