Chapter 1539 Determination, the Secret of the Dragon Nest
Tie Zhu slowly turned his head at his wife's words.
"The inheritance of the Twilight Assassin is precious, but there is also the risk of death if it fails."
"If I die in the inheritance, I will not be able to continue to serve you in the future, nor can I accompany you."
Tie Zhu's tone was heavy, and it was obvious that he was hesitant in his heart.
In fact, the inheritance of the Twilight Assassin is relatively tolerant.
It is not a matter of life and death.
Instead, it will be scored according to the inheritance test.
The higher the score, the more perfect the inheritance you can get, and the more enhanced your strength.
The upper limit is the peak of the demigod, and the lower limit is also the low-level legend.
Of course, if the score is so low that it is outrageous, then death becomes the only result.
Therefore, compared with the possible benefits, the risk of this inheritance is not too high.
It is not even a risk of life.
Tie Zhu's character is still good, and now he has the blessing of his family's faith.
It is not a problem to pass the basic inheritance.
The reason why he hesitated is because he was not confident.
Born as a farmer, he came from a country that has become a ruin of civilization-Yuelan.
He prayed before his death and was eventually sealed into an unknown space.
It was not until Zong Shen descended on the Endless Continent that he and the other two were able to break free from the ban and be reborn as the initial farmers.
The two initial farmers had already integrated into the territory and performed their duties.
He was the luckiest one, and received a job transfer book from Zong Shen, becoming a Nord Shadow Scout.
After escaping from the state of ignorance, he was soon sent to Xitano Village and completed the task assigned by Zong Shen very well.
But no matter when, the demigod level is still a level that is so far away that he needs to look up to it all the time.
He couldn't believe that such an opportunity was right in front of him.
He didn't have the confidence to take it.
Now facing this good opportunity, he has lost his ambition to make progress.
A bystander sees clearly.
Katarina knows her husband.
Although they haven't been together for too long.
What attracted her to Tiezhu was always his simplicity and kindness.
These two characteristics made it difficult for him to become the top assassin.
However, Tiezhu has shown great potential in disguise, infiltration, and undercover.
Cowardice at critical moments may make him regret for life.
Katarina gently stroked Tiezhu's face and said softly.
"Listen, dear."
"You once swore to protect me and our children."
"You also sacrificed your life to serve the lord."
"Now this is the best guarantee for you to fulfill your oath."
"Become a twilight assassin and share the lord's worries."
"Only if the lord can go all the way to the highest, we can get the opportunity to truly transcend the shackles."
After experiencing the abuse and humiliation of the beastly lord, Katarina has a more thorough view of the future.
There are very few things that the people can do.
The real hope of breaking the deadlock lies in the lord.
To be with a straw lord is no less than stepping half a foot into hell.
On the contrary, it means having the opportunity to change your destiny.
So she hopes that Tiezhu will not give up his enterprising spirit and try his best to help Zong Shen become the highest.
If they are content with the status quo, their family will be nothing more than leaves floating under the waves.
"Huh..."
After taking a deep breath.
Tiezhu nodded heavily.
"That's right."
"The Lord gave me this token, which means that in his mind, I am the best candidate to change my job to the Twilight Assassin."
"I must not live up to this trust."
"I want to accept the inheritance of the Twilight Assassin, I want to become stronger..."
He made up his mind, turned around and gently hugged Catalina, letting her feel his heartbeat and his will.
...
The next day, the 71st day of the advent.
Zong Shen left the giant city of Dagalisni.
The various tasks after the conquest are still in progress.
Apart from the top priorities on the first day, there are still many trivial tasks left.
These are all handed over to Alz and various internal affairs officials in the territory.
After helping Zong Shen take over the giant city garrison and security forces, Marquis Ekmeledin was transferred to the territory for temporary house arrest.
He has good ability, and the rules restrict him, so he still serves as the governor.
However, considering his previous uncooperative behavior, Zong Shen will soon remove him.
There will be new arrangements for Marquis Ekmeledin in the future.
Perhaps he will continue to serve as the governor of a certain stronghold or a newly conquered city.
But he will definitely not stay in the giant city of Dagalisni.
In the next few days, the territory will have a new offensive and continue to attack the eastern part of Avalon.
He does not intend to advance one by one with the state city as the target unit.
Instead, he is prepared to use the advantages of high-level combat power and spatial movement to launch a blitz.
Therefore, Zong Shen left the mark of [Dimension Seed] and mastering some authority.
Next, the Wasteland King, the Emperor Mud Crab, Blood Ice, the Demon Hunter Felonas, and the newly formed Mage Corps, etc., will all participate in the conquest war.
Dark King Ming was sent back and settled not far from the portal of the Demon Realm dungeon.
In name, he settled down, but in fact, he was sent by Zong Shen to watch the door.
Although the dungeon has not been opened yet, some unusual phenomena have begun to appear recently.
The ground around the portal is cracked from time to time.
There was also a lava splashing incident yesterday.
Suddenly, the ground bulged and magma burst out like a ripe acne.
Fortunately, Zong Shen reserved enough safe areas when he fenced off the place.
Later, multiple simple protective arrays were deployed there.
Finally, with the help of [Armored Wall Technology (Orange)], several isolation walls were built.
Four sufficiently spacious entrances were retained.
Twelve [Rock Towers (Purple)] were also built around it.
Although it is only level 4, it is an absolute fortress building.
After supporting each other, it can resist a million troops.
Sitting there are the brothers Bridger Sorenson and Ole Sorenson, the twins of the Dabos Gladiator.
They have half the blood of the Highland Barbarians. Not only are they naturally strong, but they are also particularly good at hand-to-hand combat.
They have fought hundreds of times in the arena.
Most importantly, the two brothers are good at double-player fighting and have the ability to fight at a small level.
So Zong Shen put them together.
If the dungeon area is invaded by a strong enemy, the two of them together are enough to fight against most enemies below the demigod level.
And the transfer of Dark King Ming to that area also has this consideration.
By the way, make use of the open space nearby.
After all, the area where the Demon Realm portal is located is not within the actual control area of the territory.
At present, in addition to directly conquering the giant city and the state city, there is no way to obtain a large amount of territory at one time, especially the core territory.
If you want to expand the scope, it seems that there is only one way to open the territory challenge.
At present, Zong Shen's territory level has been opened to LV100 or above.
However, there are no hostile targets within a range of 100 kilometers.
The patrol team and hunting team sent out have long completed the task of cleaning up and sweeping.
Zong Shen can only temporarily declare his rights by planting flags and other means.
But this right can only be guaranteed by force.
Ming is a special existence.
It has a peculiar creativity.
This creativity is not limited to training soldiers of the Dark Prison who are at the intersection of life and death. It can also transform the environment of the main material world to make it more in line with the rules of the Dark Prison.
Of course, this transformation is limited.
If the Dark King Ming becomes a god in the future, he may have the ability to transform the entire world.
Because of this, placing Ming here can be regarded as putting an extra ballast stone.
This time when going to the Dragon Nest, Zong Shen only brought Jeanne d'Arc, Lan Xiaodai and Beast King Rexxar.
With the help of the [Space Shuttle Gate] and the direction positioning of the strategy module, they directly shuttled to the mountains and forests more than a thousand kilometers away from the Dragon Nest.
This place is located in the northeast of the Kingdom of Avalon, infinitely adjacent to the Kingdom of Nord.
A correct version in the 16-9 book and bar!
There are vast mountains all around, and you can't see the end of the mountain range at all.
Lush trees cover the earth, and streams flow in the cracks of steep rocks.
Three people and one dragon appeared in an open area on the hillside with azure shuttle light.
Beast King Rexxar seemed to like this forest environment very much, closing his eyes and sniffing gently.
Jeanne held a spear in her hand and a two-handed sword behind her, looking cautious and careful.
Lan Xiaodai looked around curiously.
Only Zong Shen was the calmest.
"Don't worry, there is no danger here."
"Because it is close to the Dragon Nest, there will be inexplicable dragon power sweeping here every once in a while, so most of the monsters and wild beasts are unwilling to stay here for a long time."
He did his homework before coming.
The only real danger here is the Dragon Nest itself.
There is not only the secret of the dragon bloodline hidden there, but also a hidden ancient opportunity.
However, although there are no monsters here, it is the ritual place of the Dragon Church.
Its importance to the church is even comparable to that of the base camp.
Therefore, there are many people from the Dragon Church here.
Including believers, dragon soldiers and a small number of strange dragon creatures.
You should know that the target of the dragon transformation ceremony is not limited to humans.
The church that has mastered the dragon transformation method will naturally cultivate other dragon creatures.
Finally, occasionally there will be dragons worshipped in the dragon transformation church that will wander and fly here.
As the territory of the dragon transformation church, it is impossible to walk in with a swagger.
Zong Shen simply sat down cross-legged.
The key to this action is Lan Xiaodai.
Jeanne came purely to accumulate exploration experience.
She experienced large battlefields in the Iron Armor Continent, and when she came to the Endless Continent, she had to learn to explore and observe.
Beast King Rexxar is an important supplement to the action and combat power.
The mountain forest can be regarded as half of his home court.
Seeing the lord sitting down, Rexxar and others also sat nearby.
The sense of relaxation was directly pulled to the maximum, as if this was not an exploration action, but a pleasant exchange.
The breeze was not dry and the sun was just right.
The forest was filled with fresh air and a faint smell of green grass.
It is indeed a relaxing place.
The only weird thing is that it is too quiet here.
There are no birds singing, no beasts roaring, and even the sound of insects can't be heard.
"Rexxar, summon Leon to guard the surroundings."
Zong Shen whispered.
Hearing this, Resk nodded slightly and activated [Summon Soul Companion·War Eagle Leon].
As a partner of the soul contract, the war eagle Leon can exist forever after being successfully summoned until he dies or Rexxar dies, and has normal eating, excretion and sleep needs.
If he dies, he needs to wait for a 45-day cooling period before he can be re-recruited.
Under certain circumstances, he can also take it back to the space of the soul contract.
In this way, he can be re-summoned after only 12 hours of cooling.
A faint spatial fluctuation flashed by.
Mental power and spatial power together build a hidden spatial singularity.
This can resist spatial interference to the greatest extent.
Black wings stretched out from it.
Not long after, the war eagle Leon appeared in the empty space nearby.
It was in tune with Rexxar's mind, so it did not make a cry, but paced quietly on the ground.
"Go, guard the four directions for us."
Rexxar raised his hand and waved, and the war eagle, which received a clear order, flapped its wings and took off.
The surging air flow brushed across everyone's faces and lifted their hair.
The war eagle soared into the sky, and its sharp eagle eyes looked around.
At the same time, Rexxar's eyes also instantly burst into a fascinating light.
He connected to part of Leon's vision.
"My lord, do you need to summon Misha and Hofer?"
Rexxar asked.
But Zong Shen waved his hand.
"Not for now."
"It's not time to fight yet."
"Let Leon use the beyond-visual-range of Eagle Eye to guard us."
The Dragon Church has dragons, and more than one.
Zong Shen came here for three goals.
The first is to dig out the secret of the Dragon Nest.
The second is to obtain the method of the Dragon Ritual.
The last is to get some wool from the Dragon Church.
It's also easy to bring back a few giant dragons or priests who master the ritual tricks.
Since I'm here, I always feel a little bit disadvantaged if I don't eat and take.
After the war eagle officially entered the alert state, Zong Shen broke off a branch from the side and started writing and drawing on the ground.
"It's still more than a thousand kilometers from the core area of the Dragon Nest."
"But we have entered the outer surveillance area of the Dragon Church."
"I know their secrets."
"The ruins here are from a very distant era."
"The Dragon Church seems to only use this place as a ritual site, but in fact the church attaches great importance to the Dragon Nest and has many hidden means."
"We need to bypass the outer guards and some special detection magic circles until we reach the core area."
"If we force our way in, the other party may launch some terrifying measures and cause unnecessary changes."
Zong Shen gradually became cautious.
At this time, Lan Xiaodai raised his hand.
As a blue dragon, she did not sense anything special here.
"Father, what is here?"
This question is also the question of Rexxar and Jeanne.
The secret of the Dragon Nest is hidden in a distant era.
During the period, countless people have explored it, but it seems that only the Dragon Church has a glimmer of the truth.
Of course, even the Dragon Church can't compare with the cheater Zong Shen who turned to the last page to find the answer.
He answered slowly.
"Here is the Shell of Io..."
