Chapter 185 Jacques Seeks Help
The area outside the city walls is also its territory.
In this area, there will be a large amount of resources, as well as various different soldier nests that help the Dark Beast Lord train his troops, or that exist as level restrictions.
Defeating the soldiers in the soldier's nest, obtaining resources, and upgrading the territory are what you need to do every day in the Lord Challenge.
The soldiers recruited by the Dark Beast Lord can move freely in this wilderness that belongs to them until they reach the border, where they cannot jump a single step.
This was the limit of their military strength, and also the reason for their crushing defeat in the encirclement and suppression of the necromancer.
The cunning humans took advantage of the loopholes in their territorial borders, and attacked them from all directions without being discovered until they came right in front of them.
Not only did he wage war against Yong and kill him, he also sent out the undead to force the other two kings to surrender, hoping to capture them all in one fell swoop.
The hatred in King Lie's heart is as vast as the ocean.
There is certainly competition among the royal families, but these limited royal families are the only ones they recognize in their hearts, and they are also the cornerstone of the dark beast world.
The death of a royal family member will cause them pain.
It's going to kill the necromancer.
Sooner or later I will kill him!!
But now, it also wants to take advantage of the territorial difference and the loophole seized by the necromancer to turn the tables and escape.
The strategy of the Split King is also very simple.
It didn't need to hide, transform into a fish, wait for its territory to completely disappear, and then sink into the sea to escape. This path had already proven to be impossible to escape from the endless undead.
Therefore, it can take advantage of the fact that its territory is only level three and the border is very short, and rush into the sea at the fastest speed before the necromancer can react.
There may be sea beasts in the ocean, but as long as it doesn't encounter those human challengers, it won't die.
Just wait until it is out of combat and it will return.
The Split King's mind works very quickly and his ability to save his life is first-rate.
It ran at lightning speed, always on guard against the ghost crows above its head.
The fourth-level ghost crow, which has never appeared in the dark beast world, flies very fast. No matter how hard it runs, it can be easily caught up with.
However, these ghost crows are not alive after all. They are not intelligent creatures. They rely entirely on the orders of the ruler. Before new orders arrive, the orders they receive are to monitor it and ensure combat status. Even if the Split King has clearly escaped, they can only rigidly execute the same orders.
The bet was right!
The Split King ran at full speed and had already reached the edge of his territory. Except for one ghost crow that was still foolishly chasing and biting him, the other ghost crows just followed him without stopping him.
As long as they don't rush at it, the damage a mere fourth-level ghost crow can cause to it is almost zero.
Finally, before the other party could react, it reached the edge of its territory, or the edge of the island, and leaped into the sea.
The moment it entered the water, it transformed into the form of a fish and swam out.
As long as the ghost crows do not come out of the space cracks, they are not afraid of the sea pressure. They follow the big fish all the way and continue to execute orders.
Until one moment, a confused gaze moved over. It was obvious that the ruler noticed that their position had changed and had doubts.
A ghost crow received the order and flew back. Within a minute, a clear and distinct instruction suddenly came from the depths of its soul - Stop it! Attack with all your might!
But it was too late.
The 15-kilometer summoning distance was reached in an instant.
Just as the ghost crow formed a spear-like posture and was about to strike the "big fish" with all its strength.
It was as if a wall of air suddenly appeared in front of their eyes, and they could no longer move forward and had to stop.
They watched helplessly as the Dark Beast King, like a fish that had truly escaped death, flicked its tail a few times and completely disappeared from their sight.
Wei Huan was of course very angry when he learned that a dark beast king had escaped successfully.
He concentrated all his remaining strength on the territory of the last dark beast king.
The name of this dark beast king is "Zhui".
It is obviously more afraid of death, but also slow to react.
Even though the Split King reminded it before escaping, it was still a lot slower.
It was not until Wei Huan killed King Yong and the neighboring territory had obviously disappeared that it realized what it needed to do.
But it was too late.
After successfully killing King Yong and shifting his attention to the two territories behind, Wei Huan noticed something unusual and it was the first thing he noticed.
All the undead rushed forward, chasing an animal that had turned into a yellow antelope-like animal in panic and was fleeing in panic among the ruins.
After being discovered, it turned into a small animal like a hamster and burrowed underground.
Finally, when it realized that it still couldn't escape, it showed its ferocious side and turned into a giant yellow snake with scales, muscular muscles, and claws.
After a desperate counterattack, Wei Huan had to use a lot of effort to kill it.
When another Dark Beast King was killed, although there was no prompt sound, Wei Huan did feel as if he had torn open the invisible net of heaven and earth and gained a little bit of fresh air.
"It's a pity that one ran away."
"The Dark Beast Kings are cunning. We've been calculating until now, and we're lucky to have two left."
"It would be better if all three were killed."
"You're already great."
Mu Zhong was sitting next to Wei Huan, and their hands were placed on the "colossus". Mu Zhong hooked his pinky fingers, which were originally just loosely placed together, and shook them gently. Wei Huan turned around and saw Mu Zhong's admiring eyes.
Wei Huan finally suppressed the urge to turn the world upside down and dig deep into the ground to capture the escaped Dark Beast King.
It's obvious that it must have escaped, so there's no point in staying.
Wei Huan nodded, and amidst everyone's expectant gazes, he said, "Everyone has worked hard. Now, let's leave the assessment world."
As the words fell, cheers rang out in the cab.
Oh my god! They were actually surrounded by tens of thousands of Dark Beasts, especially three Dark Beast Kings, and not only were they about to reach the finish line, they even killed two of the Dark Beast Kings.
It is hard to imagine that he had contributed to this glorious military achievement.
"We don't work hard, it's the boss who works hard."
"Without the boss, there would be no such record. I'm not afraid of not having achievements to brag about in my life."
"The boss works harder!"
At some point, everyone in the car started calling out "Boss" like Liu Chengzhi did.
Obviously, they were all selected from the regular army, but there is a more special cohesion in this car, which makes people forget everything unconsciously and are only willing to follow the bosses in the car to do a big business.
Amidst the congratulations, the white chariot arrived at the portal to the assessment world smoothly without any hindrance.
From that phantom wall, one could see everything this car had experienced in the past few days since it entered the assessment period...
They pushed through the territory of the dark beasts, faced the storm at the border of the world, fought with the royal family of sea beasts in the storm, and even met a survivor of this world.
In the end, they successfully used a strategy and easily killed two dark beast kings before they upgraded their territory to the fifth level, thus achieving the final victory.
When they reached the finish line in front of the phantom wall, the picture on the phantom wall turned into a live broadcast, showing all their actions at the moment.
The chariot still looks so plain, but it inexplicably gives people a feeling of being as precious as a pearl.
Finally, they sailed all the way from the sea to a large island without hesitation. On the other side of the phantom wall was the real level five world.
Wei Huan's heartbeat was a little irregular.
He finally caught up with the main force and arrived at the front line where humans and dark beasts were fighting.
In this world, there will be real adventures waiting for him, and there will be truly powerful people who are famous throughout the world. They will cooperate, and maybe compete, and then work together for the survival of mankind, open up this world, and obtain a ticket to civilization to enter a higher world.
The adventure in the fifth-level world will begin from this large island.
…
[Wei Huan abandoned his compatriots and left alone. To save my life, I had to use the Return Talisman, but my companions didn't have the Talisman and have been unable to return. Wei Huan is the murderer.]
From the first day of the Level 5 Assessment World, a message was posted on the Challenger APP forum.
Looking at the hundreds of millions of replies under the post, some people who haven't logged into the APP for a while will click in as soon as possible.
I thought that under the post, there would be all kinds of replies cursing Wei Huan, saying that he was cold-blooded and heartless, and that he was a murderer.
But in fact, when I clicked on it, I found that the one who was being "cyberbullied" was the poster himself.
[Are you blind? You keep getting reminders that you can't sign up for this exam, but you insist on going. Serves you right!]
Aren't there notices everywhere? A while ago, I was riding the subway, and there were notices everywhere saying no one could enter the assessment, as if anyone could enter the Level 5 world.
[I thought that only the powerful ones who could go to the fifth-level world were smart people, but it turns out there are also fools.]
[The boss is just too smart. He thought he could get in on the big time this time. He thought he had predicted others' predictions. Really smart.]
[Don't do what your mother says you shouldn't do. Isn't that common sense?]
The comments below are all one-sided ridicule of the original poster, and some challengers from small countries are just joining in the fun.
Your country has advertisements and warnings, while my country doesn't have those. However, when you sign up for Challenge World, you'll always see warnings on various channels. Plus, you can cancel after registering. I can't understand those who clearly see these warnings and still choose to sign up, then find out the difficulty is incredibly high and then complain about others not letting them cling to their legions. Are they just trying to be parasites, which is why they have this weird disparity?
[Isn't he from Mulberry Country? Or is he from Daxia? I thought the only people who would make such a false accusation would be from Mulberry Country who have a grudge against Wei Huan. This is so strange.]
Similar posts were posted on more than 100 million floors, and during Wei Huan's assessment period, they were basically all on the first page.
The very positive remarks in the content left the risk control team specially formed by Daxia for this matter with nothing to do.
All I can say is that there are more rational, fair and kind people in this world.
However, because of this post, everyone on Blue Star realized Wei Huan’s current situation, which was probably very difficult.
Many speculative posts have appeared one after another, and many of them are said to be internal information posted online, and the basic content is not much different.
Wei Huan was targeted by the dark beast.
Wei Huan's continuous actions against the dark beasts have changed the situation on the battlefield. Now it is just an "ancient battlefield", and the next step may develop into a change in the situation on a large battlefield.
Wei Huan is simply a thorn in the side of the Dark Beast King Clan.
There will inevitably be actions against him.
Everyone was very worried.
It's a fight between humans and dark beasts. Even those who have always disliked Wei Huan's high profile are firmly on the human side in this matter.
As long as he is the enemy of the Dark Beast, he is our human hero, and we hope that he will win in every confrontation with the Dark Beast.
There was no live broadcast in the assessment battlefield, so even if those who had entered sporadically and had not used the return talisman knew Wei Huan's situation, they would not be able to convey it.
It was only in the following days that some people who claimed to have returned began to say, "Wei Huan closed the public channel. We tried to contact everyone in their car, but received no response. We don't know what's going on, so we can only try to move forward.
The monsters that descended from the Level 5 world were very powerful, and each time we faced them, it was a struggle. We barely managed to hold out until the sixth day, but then we had to give up because our chariot was nearly destroyed by the sea monsters. We had no choice but to return."
The news from the sixth day finally came back.
Someone who returned today said in the Challenger APP forum: “There are 227 people left in the chat room, and there are probably only three main battle tanks left.
Aside from Wei Huan's car, the other cars haven't spoken yet, so we don't know their specific circumstances. But those who have managed to hold on until now are probably quite strong.
There are too few challengers in the assessment world. The king level will descend on the strongest chariot, but others will also need to face the highest general-level sea beasts.
The most crucial thing is that in the remaining few days, the environment for challenging the world will become increasingly harsh, and there will definitely be more and more sea beasts descending. It is almost time to give up, and Wei Huan will not look back.
Although he is a hero of mankind, he is only a hero of mankind. Don't think that he will change the general direction of his plan for a certain individual..."
…
"Captain, Jacques is contacting you."
Just as Wei Huan was moving at full speed and about to break through the phantom wall, the voice of the intelligent butler suddenly rang out.
"Wait! Stop!"
Wei Huan hurriedly called a halt. At this moment, the front of his car had reached the finish line marked by the red and black mosaic logo, and the front of the car had even disappeared from this world.
But because of the emergency stop at the last moment, the rear half of the car body has not completely left this world.
Wei Huan was very glad that he reacted quickly enough. He immediately thought of the assessment world, where no one could contact the outside world except the challengers in the same world.
So after subconsciously stopping, Wei Huan looked at Mu Zhong in surprise.
At the same time, Mu Zhong also looked over and said, "Is Jacques also in this world?"
Jacques has always been their focus.
After meeting Jacques in the Level 4 Assessment World, although they maintained a competitive and opposing relationship in terms of stance, Jacques's demeanor and rational and fair actions impressed both of them.
Faced with the pressure of the Osham situation, Jacques never compromised, insisted on the justice in his heart, and was even framed by the top management of Osham.
The glory of proud Osham is long gone, but that country has always been unable to face its new identity and is unwilling to see the real world.
Especially those old guys who control Osham, because they are too old to become challengers, they feel both inferior and conceited towards the world, and show great hostility towards all young people who threaten their power.
Faced with these powerful young challengers who can fight against antigenic bullets, they both want to control their power and are afraid of their power. They try every means to win them over, divide them, and even use various methods to confirm their loyalty, overtly or covertly.
There are always some people who don't seem to be tempted by power, nor will they fall because of force. They always keep a pure land in their hearts. Even Jacques, who is a bit naive and stubborn, has long become the fat meat stuck in the throat of Osam's group of people in power.
Of course, their dislike for Jacques has not been going on for a day or two. Jacques is extremely talented and powerful. If they can be patiently won over, they will treat him like a treasure and love him dearly.
But in the end, it was because of Jacques's ignorance of the current situation that their bottom line was broken for the last time.
If you can't be the knife in my hand, I will destroy you.
They issued a warrant for his arrest, and the charge was treason.
Honestly, this is hilarious and would never have happened in any other country except Osham.
In this world, a country will only get better if it has more strong people. How can it push away talents like Jacques?
So for a long time, Wei Huan didn't believe it.
Even now... facing Jacques's call for help, there was still a corner of his heart that was always doubting.
Perhaps this is another conspiracy against him.
In the minds of those old guys in Osham, they don’t want to care about what will happen to humans in ten or twenty years. They just want to eliminate all threats and consolidate power firmly in themselves when they are able to think.
Wei Huanming's most obvious weakness is that as a summoner, he must be very weak.
Therefore, gaining his trust and getting close to him must be the first thing that comes to everyone's mind when they want to harm him.
Jacques' haggard face was right in front of Wei Huan. He only saw Jacques through the video from the driver's seat.
Even though he has faced many hardships in the past, Jacques's young face remains as handsome as ever.
He said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to trouble you, but in order to successfully cross Line 80, I had to walk at full speed on the world's border. Not only are there a huge number of sea beasts following behind me, but a royal sea beast just descended.
I have to be honest. I don't want to die. I must live to clear my stigma.
Since I was born, I have been proud of being an Osama person. I love my country deeply. All my actions in challenging the world are to make my motherland better and stronger.
So I can't accept this result. I absolutely cannot die in such a cowardly way.
Excuse me for interrupting you, but if it won't affect your actions, could you help me deal with the sea monsters behind me? I still have 200,000 points, and I'm willing to transfer them all to you."
Wei Huan looked at Jacques quietly. After thinking for a while, he nodded: "Okay."
No matter how dark the thoughts were in his heart, Wei Huan still thought of the scene in his previous life when Jacques, as one of the pillars of mankind, rushed into the tide of dark beasts without hesitation.
Such heroes are always in his heart and he admires them immensely.
If you can save the other person by taking action yourself, why not?
After receiving the expected response, Jacques breathed a sigh of relief, and his frown noticeably relaxed.
He quickly reported his coordinates and connected his butler AI with the AI in Mu Zhong's car so that both sides could determine each other's position more accurately.
When Jacques saw Wei Huan already at the finish line, he couldn't hide the surprise on his face.
"You've reached the end."
Wei Huan did not hide it from him: "If you were a second later, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to contact me."
Jacques smiled and said, "It seems that the god of luck is standing on my windowsill today."
Wei Huan said, "And your fairness and kindness. Thank you for testifying for me during the confrontation in Mulberry Country."
Jacques shook his head. "It's just a trick played by those in power, a show to force me to take a stand. They don't want to actually take action against Daxia, but they also want the world to see that they're doing their best to protect the Mulberry Kingdom. I envy you. Daxia truly loves you. I know that no matter what the final outcome that day, it will not change Daxia's support for you."
Wei Huan also laughed when talking about this.
He truly felt Daxia's protection for him, that kind of unprincipled protection that brought him the feeling of being loved.
Now that Jacques said it, Wei Huan felt a warmth in his heart and felt his luck even more deeply.
If it were Osam, I would probably be suppressed by politicians like Jacques and eventually escape with scars all over my body, right?
Wei Huan ordered the tank to turn around, and then notified the crew members who were about to open champagne to celebrate, asking them to put the celebration on hold for now, as the battle was about to begin.
Everyone heard that they were going to rescue Jacques, and they didn't have any objections. Everyone who knew about Jacques's situation knew that many people were sympathetic to Jacques's position and experience.
In addition, fighting sea beasts is very easy. Not only can you get materials, but you can also earn DKP. Why not do it?
Wei Huan ordered the opened champagne to be put back and everyone took turns to rest and recover their strength.
Jacques has not yet crossed the 80th parallel, and no one knows how many sea beasts are following behind him. It will take more than a day for the two sides to meet. This period is a good time to rest, and then there will be another good battle.
Before ending the call, Jacques sheepishly asked for some energy.
After all, not everyone is like Wei Huan. There are also ghost crows plowing the land, and the energy produced can be used as energy supplement for full speed advancement.
The higher the level of the tank, the greater the consumption. For a normal person, the energy in the tank can last for three or four days without any problem, but it is rare to have more than that.
Jacques probably didn't have time to replenish his energy while facing Osam's pursuit during this period.
Now that we have entered the assessment period and are being followed by a group of sea beasts, there is no chance for us to open the treasure chest to replenish our energy.
Wei Huan's trade gave Jacques a lot of energy, but at the same time he sighed in his heart.
This one of the pillars of the human race was almost destroyed in this corner. What a huge loss that would have been for humanity.
