The Guards In Front Of The Palace
When Ling Yi’s group arrived, all the players on the ground looked at them.
“Which world’s players are they from?”
“So annoying, someone else is going to get a share of the loot again.”
“Huh? That was… 01?”
“The Earth players are here!”
When the people below saw the identity of the newcomer, their expressions all changed.
Some were curious and expectant, some were nervous and apprehensive, and some were blatantly frowning.
“Now that you mention it…”
Under everyone’s gaze, Ling Yi landed on the ground and suddenly turned to Lin Meng and asked, “Are there any rewards for killing players on this battlefield?”
As soon as he said that, the players from other worlds around him trembled and looked at him in fear.
Seeing the surrounding players’ fear, Meng Lin and the others were secretly pleased.
He wasn’t sure if Ling Yi was doing this on purpose or if he didn’t know. But he answered in the same solemn tone, “Killing players here is the same as killing players on God’s Path. The other party will be demoted and resurrected next to the camp crystal. They may also drop gold coins, items in the bag, or true souls.”
“By the way, killing monsters also gives exp, and there is a chance of dropping Skills. In addition, there are some super-large mines or other important buildings, and there are also Beast Kings and other powerful monsters guarding them. These will also refresh once in a while.”
His voice was as loud as ever, and everyone within a few dozen meters could hear him clearly.
“Oh, I see.”
Ling Yi nodded his head as he scanned the players around him.
Some were trembling, while others were on guard, their eyes filled with determination that did not fear death.
Tong Wei couldn’t figure out Ling Yi’s true thoughts. He walked up worriedly and whispered in Ling Yi’s ear, “Do you want to rule the world?”
“I don’t want to.”
“Then we don’t need to be on bad terms with them.”
“I’m not thinking of doing that now.”
“Phew, that’s good.”
Tong Wei heaved a sigh of relief.
BOOM!
Before he could finish exhaling, a loud explosion suddenly came from the hall dozens of meters away!
Everyone’s attention immediately shifted to the main hall, and they all revealed happy expressions.
The players said that the loud noise was caused by the mechanism of the stone doors inside. It means that the door is about to open!
“What good luck! I didn’t think that the hall would really open!”
Crack…
Like an old mechanism slowly operating, an ear-piercing creaking sound came from the two green vine stone doors that were more than ten meters tall.
Then, under everyone’s gaze, the two stone doors slowly opened, and hazy golden light shone out from inside.
Guan Yue suddenly remembered something. She quietly walked to Ling Yi’s side and said, “When the temple opens, two temple guards will charge out. They have the keys to the secret rooms. We’d better get them first.”
Ling Yi nodded.
He had two purposes for entering the myriad realm battlefield. One was to understand the situation, and the other was to protect the teleportation gate.
Now that these two goals had been achieved, it was time to return.
‘But since I’m already here, I might as well earn some exp before I leave. I’ll save them up to my EXP Pool. Even if Shurou and the others can’t use it, I can use it to exchange for attribute points.’
As he thought about it, two golden figures flashed out of the hazy golden light in his eyes!
Upon closer inspection, they were two humanoid monsters that were five meters tall, wearing shiny golden armor and holding golden swords.
Their armor was very eye-catching.
“Wow! Their armor glows.”
Ling Yi put his hand in front of his face and used the gaps between his fingers to look at the guards who had rushed into the crowd of players and started killing.
“Seven Star Skill, Freezing Ray!”
A player shouted and pushed out a gray-white light wave with his palms.
The guard easily dodged the attack, letting them stray onto another nearby player.
“Ah!”
Several screams were heard, and a few unlucky people were immediately frozen.
The freezing effect only lasted for a short moment. Some kind players automatically remove them, but despite that, the poor victims still shivering from the cold.
“Bastard! You can’t even use your Skills properly!”
“F*ck! Who was the one who released the light!”
“…”
The two shrine guards were extremely agile, and they charged through the crowd of players as if no one was there.
In just a few seconds, the peaceful land in front of the temple had been turned into a big chaotic battle. Some players were killed, but they were fighting with others.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!…
The energy from the battle shook the ground, and the surrounding trees were destroyed by all kinds of attacks. Broken branches and fallen leaves were scattered all over the ground.
...
The red flames, purple-blue lightning, and other colors of light shone on the faces of Ling Yi and the others, making their speechless expressions even more complicated.
“The players this time are all very impulsive, aren’t they?” He said jokingly.
The people around him chuckled. The sword Saint of Gale, Nangong Han, walked forward and suggested in a low voice, “We can sneak in while they’re fighting.”
“Eh? We clearly have the strength to go in openly…” Luo Yuan didn’t understand.
“Are you stupid? The Pool is only so big. Isn’t it better to have one less person?”
Perhaps hearing Nangong Han’s words, the two shrine guards in the distance suddenly gave up on their current target and rushed toward them.
“Watch out!”
Wen Xinyue finally reacted. She took out her A-grade weapon, First-grade Azure Sky, and her figure turned into a green light as she charged straight at one of the guards. Her green sword clashed with the other’s golden sword!
Buzzzzzzzz!
A flash of sparks burst forth between the blades! Invisible shock waves burst out from the point of contact, instantly sweeping across a radius of several hundred meters, dispersing all the leaves and sand in the surrounding air!
Thanks to his daughter’s help, Nangong Han’s strength also improved greatly, and he was able to stop the other one in time.
...
When the surrounding players saw this, they exclaimed in surprise.
“Good God! As expected of the number one player from Earth. Two random nobodies that came out of nowhere were able to fight the guards alone.”
“I won’t say defeat. Just being able to defend alone is already very awesome. I can’t even keep up.”
“01 hasn’t even made his move yet…”
Not only the players from other worlds but Luo Yuan and the others were also surprised.
“What? Little Han has become so strong?”
Luo Yuan knew that because of Nangong Li, Nangong Han’s strength had improved a lot. But now, it seemed that the improvement was even greater than he had imagined!
He knew very well that the guards were all level 90 invincible divine breath leader monsters. They were even stronger than ordinary invincible leaders.
It was impossible for Luo Yuan not to feel jealous when he saw his friend fighting in the air.
“I didn’t expect that guy to reach the invincible level without a word…”
He turned his head to look at Ling Yi beside him and couldn’t help but lean closer to him. When the latter looked at him suspiciously, he rubbed his hands together and smiled slightly embarrassedly. “Nothing much. I just felt a little emotional when I saw the gray cloth on your wrist.”
On Ling Yi’s wrist, a gray cloth was covering his S-grade treasure, [Dream Star God].
Back then, Luo Yao had been worried that his treasure would attract thieves, so she had specially wrapped it for him. It was still in his hands.
“Mm…”
Seeing Ling Yi staring at the cloth, Luo Yuan smiled and said, “My little Yao is very virtuous, isn’t she?”
“Yes, she is.”
*Sigh* “She’s been paying attention to you every day.”
“…”
Ling Yi looked at Luo Yuan with a strange expression. He knew Luo Yuan’s purpose like the back of his hand.
He chuckled and raised his hand.
In an instant!
The guard who was fighting with the two men paused for a moment. In just a breath’s time, his body collapsed into light spots and dissipated.
“We’ll cross the bridge when we get there. Let’s go.”
He patted Luo Yuan’s shoulder and then flew into the hall.
“Ah?”
Luo Yuan’s body followed him subconsciously, but he couldn’t help thinking about what the younger man had said.
‘Does this mean we’ll take it one step at a time?’
‘That won’t do. I have to do something when I get back. The sooner we get together, the better…’
He had already decided in his heart.
