Chapter 473: 13 Heroes Died? Accident? Death Challenge
One hundred thousand troops!
It sounds huge, but when it comes to the troops dispatched by the six major nobles, the average number of troops dispatched by these six marquises is less than 20,000.
If we add the military forces controlled by the royal family, the number of people will be even smaller.
"The Blue Sky Dragon King doesn't seem to care about the sloppy troops and delayed marching speed?"
Tang Zheng was standing in the dark valley, his arms folded across his chest, leaning casually against the rugged mountain wall.
"Continue to pay attention to the movements of the Azure Sky Dragon King."
"Yes, master." Lenas's clear and refreshing voice came.
Remove "Message"!
Tang Zheng was thinking quietly.
The Kingdom had no intention of giving its all in this absurd and sudden war.
You should know that in the future battlefield of the Katz Plain, the number of troops dispatched by Marquis Borolup alone reached 50,000, and this was only a part of the left wing corps.
Left wing corps?
It was the army that was sacrificed in a wave of more than 100,000 people by the Bone King's super-level magic "Dark Fruitful Sacrifice".
"……ah!"
A painful groan came from the darkness.
Tang Zheng raised his head and looked in the direction where the sound came from. There was a "Fire Archangel" serving as a light, and it also had the ability of "night vision".
Deep in the dark valley.
In Tang Zheng's eyes, it was just like normal daylight, and he could easily catch the sound of Juesi Jueming groaning in pain.
The magic ritual covered an area of nearly 100 meters, emitting a deep blue light, continuously drawing out the cursed energy from the surrounding environment and converging it towards the deadly center!
“…What the hell is this!?”
Juesi Jueming's entire body was drenched in sweat. He clenched his fists tightly, half-knelt on the ground, and his entire body was covered in black curses:
"Little brunette! Just wait!"
"Ah, can we try something more relaxing...?"
Another painful groan.
Drops of sweat dripped uncontrollably down his chin.
Juesijieming endured the pain of tearing her clothes. She now only felt that the cursed energy was like invisible ants biting her skin, and even drilling directly into her bones.
"Your strength is returning quickly, isn't it."
Tang Zheng's tone was not at all comforting.
"Strange? It actually has such a big impact."
Tang Zheng frowned slightly, thinking to himself, "It shouldn't be a job issue."
The desperate situation before him surprised him a little.
He remembered that he did not feel any pain when he absorbed the curse energy and upgraded his [Cursed Knight] profession.
Maybe it's because he has [Player]!
Evileye had never encountered such a situation... Hmm, I almost forgot.
The Destroyer is an undead being, and what he absorbs is also the negative energy that matches his own body. Moreover, as an undead being, he does not have the negative state of a normal living person.
"Cursed energy is considered 'negative energy'. It's being forcibly infused into the living, desperately trying to kill them. The pain... should be considered normal, right?"
Tang Zheng smiled awkwardly, casually reached into the air, took out a bottle of potion from the prop box, and threw it in the direction of Juesijieming:
"Drink this medicine directly, it will relieve the pain!"
Juesijieming stared, his eyes slightly bloodshot, before taking the potion and drinking it. The pain in his body immediately eased a lot:
"You bastard, why didn't you take it out earlier!!"
"cough."
Tang Zheng spread his hands and said, "This medicine was just prepared."
This was one of several potions Nfirea had recently crafted, using herbs with a similar paralyzing effect to counteract pain.
"Oh, I see."
Juesijueming's angry voice suddenly turned sweet, "Thank you, Master Tang."
"You're welcome." Tang Zhengdao.
Juesijieming's eyelids twitched, he closed his mouth, and sat cross-legged, carefully feeling the changes in himself.
I have endured a lot of painful "training" during this period!
If it can be called "training".
The little black-haired boy was not lying, he was really getting stronger.
"His strength should have been greatly reduced due to his death, but now he feels stronger than before?"
“It’s amazing!”
"And this method of absorbing cursed energy? How exactly is it done? I can actually become stronger with this special method..."
Juesi Jueming was amazed, and ultimately could only attribute it to Tang Zheng, and was excited:
"As expected of a man who can easily defeat me, Lord Crown!"
The curse energy is gathering stronger and stronger!
After nearly a month of curse energy injection, the intensity of Juesijueming's aura has gradually increased.
"Not even close."
Tang Zheng sensed the aura of death and felt satisfied but also a little surprised:
"The cursed energy that infects this valley is still sufficient, so there shouldn't be any problems."
He originally thought that the curse energy in the valley should not be enough for Juesijiemu to upgrade the [Cursed Knight] to the maximum level.
Tang Zheng even planned to secretly inject his own cursed energy into the ceremony.
The result is not necessary!
"Who is the owner of that huge gray-black scale?"
"The cursed energy leaking from the scales alone shouldn't be enough to pollute this valley so severely."
Tang Zheng initially speculated that it was the scales of the Ever-An Dragon King or even the Xiuguan Dragon King, but now he has ruled them out.
I have also seen the Dark Dragon King, although not his real body, but I can still identify him through the Golem clone.
More than 200 years ago, the Ruiguan Dragon King had already transformed into an undead being, and there was no record of him appearing in the northwest corner of the continent.
There is another more important basis.
The "Black Knight", one of the 13 heroes, died here!
"Speaking of which, the Thirteen Heroes aren't just humans. Even if we don't count the beings deliberately erased by the Theocracy, there are also elves, dwarves, giants, and other races."
"According to normal life expectancy, these people should be able to survive to this day."
Tang Zheng's heart moved, and he realized something he had overlooked before, "So far, the 13 heroes who survived are the Platinum Dragon King disguised as a Silver Knight."
"The only one left is Li Gulit, the Undead Master!"
"How did those thirteen heroes die?"
Tang Zheng's eyes suddenly focused, and he remembered the tree elf Pinis, who had told him something before.
The first time the Demon Tree was defeated and sealed, it was done by the Thirteen Heroes, and they made an agreement to defeat the Demon Tree that destroyed the world next time.
The tree elf Pinis witnessed this scene.
Among the legendary stories, there is also the "Story of the Crooked Tree Man".
You must know!
The time when the magic tree breaks the seal is now the era, and the thirteen heroes have made this agreement.
It means that they have lived until now and have never thought about dying!
"Platinum Dragon King?"
This thought immediately popped up in Tang Zheng's mind, and then he shook his head:
"The likelihood is low. It's possible that player Rick died at the hands of the Platinum Dragon King. The hatred between the Eight Desire Kings and the Dragon Clan is too deep, so the Platinum Dragon King had reason to act."
"It would be too blatant to deal with the other 13 heroes as well."
"Furthermore, Li Gulit is still alive and has a close relationship with the Platinum Dragon King, so this possibility is even lower."
boom!
Suddenly.
A surge of breath emerged, and the cursed energy drawn by the magic instrument stopped at this moment.
"What on earth is this..."
Juesi Jueming's entire body glowed with a white light, and her face was filled with disbelief. Feeling the powerful force suddenly surging within her body, she felt a little dazed.
"What's going on?"
By absorbing the curse energy, the [Cursed Knight] was strengthened. The degree of strengthening was quite obvious, which surprised her.
But just at that moment!
It was as if she had broken through some kind of bottleneck, and the extent of her strength improvement far exceeded her expectations!
Juesijieming was very sure that she had not fully recovered to her previous level, but her overall strength was far beyond before.
In the dark.
Juesijieming sensed some kind of information, quickly calmed down, and began to think carefully again.
A moment later!
Step~
Juesijieming turned over and stood up, clenched his fists, waved them casually a few times, and looked up at Tang Zheng:
"You guys already knew this, right?"
"oh."
Tang Zheng smiled. "You've already sensed it. That's right. You should know better than most people that certain rare professions possess a killer weapon that can determine victory or defeat."
"And I happen to have detailed intelligence on the trump card you possess."
"Since our last battle, I've been certain that you haven't truly mastered the power of this class, otherwise the battle wouldn't have ended so easily."
Juesijieming felt the sudden surge of power in his body, and the corners of his mouth gradually rose.
"I did guess a little."
"I just didn't expect it to be a special way to improve my strength."
Juesi Jueming squatted slightly, pinched the hems of her trousers with both hands, and performed the non-standard etiquette of an aristocratic woman, with a hint of fanaticism in her tone:
"Thank you for your generosity, my lord!"
The next moment.
Juesijieming jumped lightly on the spot and stretched his limbs.
Sudden change.
It's like she's transformed from a noble lady into a savage village woman, a huge difference.
"What are you doing?"
Tang Zheng was a little surprised.
"I lost the last battle very unwillingly, sir."
Juesijieming stretched his limbs and did some warm-up exercises, his face gleaming with a sickly glow as he looked at Tang Zheng excitedly and passionately:
"So, can you~ fight me again?"
"This isn't just a challenge, it's proof that I've become stronger, sir!"
The series of honorifics and rapid intonations proved that the emotions at this moment were extremely excited and desperate.
Faced with this sudden request!
Tang Zheng was not sure whether Juesijieming really just wanted to show his strength, or whether he was trying to get back at them through the painful training during this period.
"All right."
Facing the fiery, strange-looking eyes, Tang Zheng shrugged and said with a smile, "Don't cry."
Bang!
Juesijieming stopped jumping, planted his feet firmly on the ground, and raised his head: "I'm not a child!"
Crash~
Lift up the corner of your clothes.
I saw that there was a magic leather belt hanging on both sides of Juesijieming's waist, and he wiped his hands on the props.
Ding! Ding!
A clear and heavy sound rang out instantly.
A set of full body armor that was pure white, emitting a soft glow and dotted with golden patterns appeared next to Juesijieming.
One of the six gods, the "God of Wind", the brilliant angel cat Meow, wears the artifact-level full-body armor "Light of the Radiant Dawn"!
Follow closely!
A golden sword and a golden shield of the same color appeared at his feet at the same time, as if they were a set.
The legendary item "Glorious Holy Golden Sword"!
The legendary item "Dawn Wall Golden Shield"!
See this scene.
Tang Zheng was stunned for a moment, then he saw the smug look on Juesi Jueming's face and laughed a little, "You've been prepared for this for a long time."
"Of course!"
Juesi Jueming didn't try to hide his feelings at all, instead his smug expression became even more pronounced: "I was easily defeated by you last time."
"Besides being careless on my own part, it was also because I wasn't fully armed!"
"This time..."
Crash!
Juesijieming moved quickly and agilely, equipping his entire body with all the equipment at once.
"This time we're fully armed!"
After the whole set of equipment is put on,
Juesijieming himself is like a glowing angel, and his entire set of weapons emits a soft white light, illuminating the surrounding dark area.
"I'm going to attack!" Juesijieming didn't seem to want to give Tang Zheng any chance to react.
Bang!
"The water flows faster!"
"The wind breaks through!"
"The wind is so strong!"
The ground under Juesijieming's feet shook, and his body turned into a white stream of light and rushed out.
The distance between the two was not far!
In the blink of an eye, Juesijieming had rushed to a position less than five meters in front of Tang Zheng. Such a close distance was a very dangerous situation for the magic caster!
"Monster Summoning: Cerberus!"
Tang Zheng reacted calmly, waving his hands and chanting softly.
"Roar!" The huge figure of the three-headed hellhound appeared in an instant, blocking Tang Zheng in front of him, and pounced towards Juesijieming with its fangs and claws.
It’s true!
Juesi Jueming's eyes lit up. The previous battle also gave her information about Tang Zheng. She quickly raised the Dawn Wall Golden Shield in her hand:
"Triple Heaven!"
Wow!
A golden light emerged from the golden shield of the Dawn Wall and transformed into three shield shadows, surrounding Juesijueming.
The attack of the hellhound first came into contact with the shield shadow. At the moment of collision, the huge figure was uncontrollably deflected by the rotating shield.
The three dog-head shapes showed astonishment.
Juesi Jueming and the three-headed dog of hell crossed each other in an instant and rushed in front of Tang Zheng. An excited laugh rang out: "At this distance, there is no way to dodge it, sir!"
"Magic without Chanting: Teleport."
Tang Zheng's figure disappeared in an instant, and he appeared a hundred meters behind Juesi Jueming:
"It's too early to get complacent. If you can't limit my teleportation ability, this battle will only repeat the result of the last one."
A calm and composed voice came from behind.
"Roar!" The three-headed hellhound roared, turned around and pounced on Juesijieming again.
Tang Zheng's eyes showed interest.
Juesijieming was obviously well prepared this time. He did not use the cross spear sickle, but equipped himself with the "Wind God" glorious angel cat Meow.
"With this combination...are you planning to use the God's Chosen Knight's trump card?"
Tang Zheng grinned and thought to himself: "You are not telling the truth, you are absolutely dead."
Last time.
When Tang Zheng came into contact with the six divine equipment, he once asked what the killer move of [God's Chosen Knight] was, and Juesijieming's answer was ambiguous.
In short, there is no clear meaning.
For this answer.
Tang Zheng didn't think much about it. Juesijieming's innate ability could be used to launch a killer move, but the specific effect was unknown, so he could only guess and judge for himself.
Now it seems that it is not the case that we don’t understand.
"Judging from his usual habit of using the decisive trump card, 'Death Bell,' the ultimate weapon of the Chosen Knight."
Tang Zheng thought quickly: "It shouldn't be the type where the outcome is decided instantly."
