Chapter 102 A-level plot, general attack on the fortress
Ji Xun knew that this was a human being, so he had nothing to worry about.
He walked over directly and revealed his identity: "Master Ronan, I am a member of the reconnaissance corps sent by the kingdom to investigate the secret passage of demons."
He briefly introduced his identity. .
Before he finished speaking, Master Ronan said: "Don't touch the magic-forbidden chain on my body. Otherwise, the devil will discover me."
"."
Ji Xun was not prepared to move at first.
He just saw that this guy was not tied with ordinary ropes, but with rune chains that had the effect of banning magic.
But when the old mage spoke, there was no change.
He wanted to get more information, but pretended not to know and said: "Devil?"
"Not bad."
Master Ronan didn't say much, and then asked: "Do you have anything else that can prove your identity?"
Ji Xun thought for a while, He took out the battle merit cards and a few devil horns.
Looking at those devil horns, Master Ronan obviously believed it, and said: "No wonder you can come here. Your strength is indeed impressive."
As he said that, he sighed. : "If I guessed correctly, many people in Fallen Eagle Fortress should have been invaded by demon minions. I didn't expect anyone to be able to avoid the demon's eyes and sneak into the dungeon."
Ji Xun was still unsure about the position of the old mage in front of him, so he followed the topic and said tentatively: "When I came here before, I found that many people had problems. Master Ronan, can you tell me what happened?"< br>
This is a standard way of guiding the plot.
Ronan seemed to know that his situation was very bad and did not hide it. He said directly: "Three months ago, we discovered that the number of demons in the Sawtooth Forest was abnormal. Then we guessed that there might be demons in the north. What kind of secret passage could pass through the Howling Abyss, so we kept investigating. Later, we accidentally discovered a very suspicious place, and my old friend led his troops there. He fought a battle with the devil. But after he came back, he It became very strange. He no longer traced the passage and did not arrange for others to go there. I thought he was injured, so I wanted to lead the team to see it myself. The outcome was as you saw, I am now trapped in the dungeon. . ”
As expected, NPC is the one who knows the plot the most.
Instead of outsiders like them.
There is a lot of information in the words.
Ji Xun listened carefully to every word in these words.
This is obviously the time the fortress commander was injured in the battle with the devil as mentioned by the soldiers before.
So something fishy was discovered?
Ji Xun was also afraid that something might happen to this guy while he was talking, so he asked directly: "Where is that place? I can go investigate."
With a fearful expression on his face, Ronan said: "Near the Desolate Spire. Thirty kilometers northeast of the fortress, near the edge of the abyss, there is a stone tower. There used to be the graves of soldiers who died bravely in the battle with the demons. But be careful, those red-eyed bats are the devil's spies."
Ji Xun carefully wrote down the coordinates.
Time did not allow for beating around the bush, so he thought about it and asked directly: "Master Ronan, please forgive me. Since you have discovered that there is a problem with the commander, why doesn't he kill you?"
Hearing this, Ronan had an expression of approval and praised: "Young man, you are very thoughtful."
After a pause, he said directly: "My life and the magic of the fortress The restrictions are integrated. This is a military secret that only the commander and I know. The fortress itself is also a beacon. As soon as I die and the beacon is lit, the kingdom will definitely send people to investigate, so they sealed it. My magic is trapped here. I can't even commit suicide."
"."
Ji Xun suddenly realized as he listened.
No wonder this NPC is locked in a dungeon instead of killing him once and for all.
Master Ronan didn’t hesitate. After finally seeing a kingdom soldier, he directly arranged the task: "If possible, I want you to report the situation of the Fallen Eagle Fortress back to the Thunder Fortress. The Demon Vanguard has already As of now, the kingdom’s top officials haven’t paid any attention to it, and I’m afraid they will suffer a big loss later.”
After Ji Xun heard these words, he also knew that coming to the dungeon would inevitably trigger this plot.
With that, Master Ronan added: "I will give you the magic key of the fortress. You go to my residence. There is a secret compartment behind the seventh book on the bookshelf. You can find my rune token there. That can prove your Identity. But be careful, the rune token is necessary to control the fortress boundary authority, and the devil is also looking for that thing."
When Ji Xun heard this, Enlightenment had already appeared: "Trigger the B-class corps Plot 'Master Ronan's Message'. Before the mission is completed, everyone must help the token holder return to the Thunder Fortress, otherwise the mission will reward 30,000 merits;"
As he expected. .
Coming to Fallen Eagle Fortress indeed triggered the advanced difficulty plot.
But it’s only Class B?
Ji Xun looked at the content of the mission, but something else came to mind.
While Ji Xun was at Fallen Eagle Fortress, three hundred elite members of the Beast Legion had already arrived in the middle of the Sawtooth Forest.
They have long known from intelligence that there is a second-order D-level disaster hidden in the cave here.
This is exactly the goal of their trip.
The trial for the direct members of the Lionheart family requires them to clear a difficult extra-dimensional space and then personally kill a calamity that is no lower than the second level.
This one is just right for now.
Although we were blocked by the demon army along the way and lost some manpower.
But the combat power of the Beast Legion is not much less.
It is more than enough to hunt down a level 2 calamity.
At this moment, Kahn, the ninth young master of the Lionheart family, was sitting leisurely in the marching tent, drinking coffee, eating desserts, and enjoying the gentle service of two well-behaved army maids.
For a top-notch young man of his level, the mortality rate in another dimension has never mattered to them.
That is something for my subordinates to consider.
The legion commander came to the tent, not daring to look directly at the erotic scene of the two female attendants. He lowered his head and asked for instructions: "Master, the vanguard scouts have confirmed that the second-order D-level disaster is in the cave ahead. Please give me instructions!”
Kahn said lazily while playing with the girl’s beautiful body.
“Yes.”
The commander performed a military salute and said: "The Beast Legion will first lead out the demons and maim them, and then the young master will hunt and peel off the demon horns. But before that, young master, you may have to prepare your armor in advance, and the record officer will record you Some magical images of the battle."
Kahn looked impatient, and then stood up from the gentle bodies of the two women: "I know"
The legion commander did not dare. After saying a few words, he exited the tent.
As long as the disaster is killed, this mission will be complete.
But after exiting the tent, the commander's palpitations that had just been looming became more intense.
Suddenly he transformed into a beast, revealing a pair of fox ears.
Like most of the warriors of the Beast Legion, he follows the [Four of Spades-Beast Walker] career sequence.
But the main material of professional cards is not a beast.
It is the fused very rare monster [Flash Fox].
This gave him an extraordinary ability to perceive crises.
The commander didn't know where this sense of crisis came from.
Looking up at the beacon towers lighting up in the distance, the expression on his face instead of being relaxed became serious. He asked loudly: "What's going on at the beacon tower over there? Is there any news? ?”
Obviously people had been sent there before, but the sixth beacon still lit up.
In other words, something might have gone wrong with the elite team they sent.
But it’s still unclear whether it was stopped by a monster or for other reasons.
Although the commander does not think that any first-level card masters can pose a threat to the five-man elite team of their beast army.
But the uneasiness in my heart became more and more intense.
Obviously the recruits this time are just some cannon fodder hunters, how could there be such a powerful character?
This inevitably makes people suspect that the man may be coming for his young master.
The messenger responded: "We have sent people there again, but there is no intelligence feedback yet."
Commander: "Where are other places?"
Signal Soldier: "The remaining beacon towers have also been sent to conduct reconnaissance. Some key intersections to the north of the Sawtooth Forest have also been stationed to intercept. No one will ever break into the high-risk area in the northern part of the forest."
"."
The commander nodded after listening to his subordinate's report, and felt more at ease.
Is it because I am too nervous and worry too much?
Now they hold the key information of the C-level plot. If they don't complete the mission, no one can get out.
The initiative is entirely in their hands.
It was previously discovered that the beacon tower was lit, and additional personnel were deployed to block roads at key passes in the forest.
Theoretically, they have eliminated all factors that may affect their young master's trial.
However, the accident still came.
It came very suddenly.
Just before the commander could breathe a sigh of relief.
Without any warning, everyone in the Beast Legion saw the enlightenment.
Looking at the plot mission of "delivering Master Ronan's message back to Thunder Fortress", everyone in the Beast Legion widened their eyes.
Because,
This mission was not triggered by them!
The huge camp instantly felt like facing a formidable enemy.
The commander shouted: "Damn it! Who triggered the B-level difficulty plot?!"
The high-difficulty plot is not triggered by triggering it. Without that strength, there is no way. It's possible.
What's more, the C-level plot has not yet been completed, and the follow-up clues are unclear. How did that person trigger the B-level?
No one can leave until this B-level mission is completed.
That means they can’t get out either!
This is war mode. Even for elites like them, the staff team estimates that the mortality rate in B-level difficulty is over 40%.
However, they did not expect that the surprise did not stop there.
Not long after, Qidi appeared again.
In the dungeon of Fallen Eagle Fortress.
Ji Xun looked at the B-level letter delivery mission that Qidi appeared, his eyes flew, and his mind was already thinking about the various plots that would happen after receiving the mission.
Even if you haven’t gotten that “magic token” yet.
He can also guess that, like the devil's horn, it is probably a special item that cannot be stored in space.
It will also leak traces for some reasons and attract demons.
If he sends the message all the way back to Thunder Fortress, he will definitely be hunted down by the demon army.
Oh,
There is also the beast army’s pursuit!
Ji Xun doesn’t think it’s a good choice to get that thing by himself right now.
And, the most important thing is.
He felt that this intensity was not enough.
“According to the current plot difficulty, B-level difficulty can only include a few second-level ordinary demons at most.”
Ji Xun estimated the B-level plot difficulty based on the previous D-level difficulty.
It was quickly concluded,
This would cause the Beast Legion to suffer some losses,
But it's not enough to destroy the group.
If you don't kill the snake, there will be endless troubles.
It just triggered a B-level plot.
This is obviously not what was expected. The only really good news is that before the mission is completed, those guys from the Beast Legion can't get out.
Besides, making trouble is one thing.
Clearance is also part of the fun.
Ji Xun also felt that completing this message delivery task was not the correct way to clear the level.
It is just the middle link.
The ultimate information that all clues currently point to is the "Secret Passage of the Demons".
He thought of something else.
When Ji Xun saw this mission, a bolder plan suddenly appeared in his mind.
The Beast Legion is Ji Xun's biggest threat right now.
But from some perspectives, it is also a good thing.
Those guys chose to recruit two hundred hunters to serve as bait.
So in Ji Xun's eyes, there is no better bait than the Beast Legion!
To protect the young master, they must concentrate their forces.
Just like the time in the Great Cemetery Maze, such a large target can definitely attract the firepower of most demons in the Sawtooth Forest.
It is still the "Battle of Outposts".
This means that the number of demon legions coming to the Sawtooth Forest is not too large.
Judging from the current intelligence, they are lurking in the forest and slowly infiltrating the three major fortresses.
There is no large-scale attack now, simply because they thought that the invasion plan had not been exposed, and the fortress penetration did not meet expectations.
But what if it is exposed in advance?
Ji Xun is certain that if the demon army knows that the plan is exposed, they will definitely choose to attack the three major fortresses in advance regardless of the cost.
Otherwise all arrangements will be in vain.
At that time, all the hidden demons will come out in full force.
However, if there is a super powerful army like the Beast Legion operating in the Sawtooth Forest, it will definitely attract the main force of the demons immediately.
This is also a huge benefit to Ji Xun.
He is crazy and conceited, but he is not blindly sending himself to death.
Because he already has an idea for completing the level!
If the plan develops as he expected, it is very possible to pass the level.
Because the number of the demon army is limited!
Once the all-out war breaks out and the Beast Legion attracts the main force of the Demon Legion, the number of demons in other places will be greatly reduced.
For example: near the secret passage!
Ji Xun's inquiry just now has given him clues about the direction of the passage, which is near the "Desolate Spire".
If you think about it with your buttocks, you know that such an important place must be heavily guarded.
If he dives rashly, even with a relic-level invisibility cloak, Ji Xun doesn't have much confidence.
But now someone is attracting firepower,
There is no better chance than this!
But the only thing that is not ideal now is that the monsters are not strong enough.
Allowing adventurers to enter the extra-dimensional space is definitely not sending them to death.
But it is estimated that with so many people coming in, they will be able to handle the number of monsters with corresponding difficulty.
But the current B-level difficulty is definitely not strong enough to wipe out an elite army like the Beast Legion.
Needs a higher level of difficulty!
In any other place, it would be impossible to detonate this plan.
But just now Ji Xun captured a very important message from Master Ronan's words: as soon as he dies, the Fallen Eagle Fortress will ignite the beacon of war.
Both demons and humans will know immediately that something is wrong!
This is much more direct than sending a letter or something.
Once the devil knows that the plan is exposed, he will definitely choose to attack in advance.
The extra-dimensional space is a random plot mode. Even if you receive a mission, you can change the depth of the exploration!
Thinking of this, Ji Xun looked at the old mage in front of him and suddenly said: "Master Ronan, to tell you the truth, the situation may be more critical than you think. The demon army has spread all over the Sawtooth Forest. After my investigation, I am sure There are also demons in the Thunder Fortress. We can no longer defend the northern fortress with just our strength."
After a pause, he added: "If I deliver the message now, I won't be able to defend it. It cannot be delivered smoothly. The time consumed by this process will also give the demons in other fortresses time to prepare, and if I am exposed, we will lose the only advantage we currently have."
Master Ronan obviously understood the underlying meaning of his words.
After pondering for a moment, a relieved smile appeared on his face: "Young man, you are more courageous than I thought."
When Ji Xun heard this, he didn't say anything anymore Say more.
As long as the old man understands.
Whether this extra-dimensional space is a parallel world or some other existence.
The role of the old mage is destined to end tragically.
And it’s time to make a decision from a rational perspective.
The longer this drags on, the worse the situation of the human camp will be in this third Holy Grail War.
Ji Xun's hint is also very obvious. Only when the old mage dies can the news be conveyed as quickly as possible.
Even if the old man doesn’t agree.
Ji Xun will also help him.
But obviously, Master Ronan understands the righteousness well.
The kind eyes looked at Ji Xun, obviously he had made the sacrifice.
But he suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with the mission: "If you were in the same situation, would you make the same choice as me?"
Ji Xun was looked directly at by that wise gaze, I didn't think that the old mage in front of me was an NPC at all.
This question is like a collision of human wisdom and morality in two time and space.
He thought for a while and said lightly: "If I were you, I would. But I am me. I will deal with any problems I encounter in my own way. My beliefs will not be affected by the situation. And change.”
Master Ronan listened and smiled.
"You are the most dazzling young man I have seen in recent years."
He seemed to agree with this answer and nodded: "There is a magic secret book hidden on the bookshelf of my residence, which records what I have learned. Years of research on the demon clan. I will give it to you, the war is more than this. I hope you will keep your faith in the future."
". ”
Ji Xun was not sure whether this was a hidden plot that triggered another dimension, or whether the old man really wanted to give a gift before he died.
Suddenly for a moment, he felt that this kind of person should not die.
Even if it’s a plot character in an extra-dimensional space.
Ji Xun thought of something else.
Thoughts that have nothing to do with extra-dimensional space.
Who can guarantee that I am not a plot character in the eyes of some higher dimensional beings.
But time no longer allows for more hesitation.
With a flash of thought, Ji Xun cut through the magic-forbidden chain with a knife.
This chain has been broken, and the demons outside will notice it immediately.
Ji Xun did not dare to stop, "Farewell!"
With a sound, he rushed towards the exit of the dungeon.
As soon as Ji Xun arrived at the exit, he suddenly felt a violent surge of magic power coming from behind him.
As if some switch was triggered, the entire fortress lit up with dazzling magic runes, and a beam of blue light shot into the sky.
The beacon tower of Fallen Eagle Fortress was lit!
At the same time, enlightenment has appeared: "The beacon tower of Fallen Eagle Fortress has been lit, triggering the unexpected plot 'The devil's plan is exposed, and the fortress war begins'. The devil knows that his plan has been exposed, and the eight people hiding in the Sawtooth Forest have The demon commanders all took action to attack the three fortresses. The fortresses were closed and no one could return to the fortresses. "
Ji Xun was not surprised.
This kind of plot is worthy of A-level difficulty.
He hid in the darkness and quietly observed the dungeon.
Almost as soon as the blue light came on, a figure rushed into the dungeon very quickly.
The compass in his hand was spinning rapidly, and he knew it was the second-level disaster disguised as the commander.
Immediately, the sounds of fierce fighting resounded in the dungeon.
Ji Xun did not dare to delay. With the old mage helping him drag the monster, this was the best time to get the thing.
He rushed towards the tallest buildings in the fortress.
On the other hand, in the Sawtooth Forest.
The members of the Beast Legion were still shocked who triggered the "B-level plot".
However, as soon as the enlightenment of this "A-level plot" appeared,
everyone was shocked.
The legion commander even looked horrified: "Damn it! Who is it!"
He was still sure to pay a certain price to pass the B-level plot.
However, in the A-level difficulty of war mode, even with such a well-equipped beast army, the mortality rate is absolutely high.
The loss of the Beast Legion is a trivial matter. If Master Kahn is injured, the trouble will be really big.
Everyone in the Beast Legion was frightened and frightened.
Even Young Master Kahn frowned when he saw the "A-level plot" on Enlightenment.
However, what was more, the offended cold anger, "Tsk, tsk. Did you plan to hit this young master on the head?"
Equally confused, there were those demons.
They never expected that human reinforcements were still in the south of the forest.
Why was the beacon tower of Fallen Eagle Fortress lit?
But the fact is that the beacon tower of Fallen Eagle Fortress lit up.
Their invasion plan has been exposed.
As soon as the beacon tower of the fortress is turned on, reinforcements from the human kingdom’s army will come.
Although the layout has not yet reached expectations, we can’t wait any longer.
You must act immediately!
Almost as soon as the beacon lighted up, all the demons lurking near the mountains were ordered to attack in advance.
Countless bat clones gathered into a tall figure in the dense forest. This is the second-order A-level disaster [Thunder Bat Commander Mitte];
There are also crawlers in the Redridge Cave. A big flaming snake appeared, which is the second-order A-level disaster [Bone Snake Commander Tuttle];
There is also the second-order A-level disaster [Heart-Taking Commander] lurking in the Thunder Fortress. Buck];
The second-level B-class [Toad Commander Humke] hidden in the poisonous swamp of the Sawtooth Forest also slowly climbed out of the quagmire;
In the Mountain of Bones
Ancient Cemetery
Eight hidden demon commanders appeared one after another in the vast Sawtooth Forest. Each of them led an army of tens of thousands of demons, heading towards the three major fortresses. Launched a fierce attack!
The target of the simultaneous attack is the human army in the forest.
