Chapter 1363: Stage Location
After upgrading his own tool staff, Zheng Yichen thought about it and sent a message to Lilia, who replied with a dead fish face. He just agreed that it was only for welfare, but now... ... What a mess!
"Of course I'm here in Puli Dungeon, what do you want to do?" Lilia said with a bit of remorse, although Zheng Yichen said that sometimes he was a little bit off, but the things he did at other times would not let him down. People are uncomfortable, now Zheng Yichen needs her directly, and if she has any needs, Zheng Yichen will find a way to meet them.
Zheng Yichen's liking to manipulate people is never one-sided, and the reason for her entanglement is not this, but Zheng Yichen always wants to make a big deal every time he finds her!
"busy or not?"
"not busy……"
"That's just right, come to my place, we need talents like you here." Zheng Yichen directly sent his address, Lilia pulled her face, clicked her tongue without saying another word, and went out directly Yes, at this time period, some procedures are required to run out. After all, she is still a member of the Holy Church, even if she is marginalized, there are necessary steps.
So what's the matter? Lilia was thinking on the road. Although as a prophet, her direct combat power is not as good as that of a legitimate professional, she said that it is impossible to have no combat power, and there is no problem traveling alone. She took out a small thing and tested it. Looking at the tracking method just mastered, ancient magic is different from modern magic.
That kind of magic doesn't have the convenience of modern magic...Well, in simple terms, it's the difference between automatic transmission and manual transmission. It's just that the automatic transmission part is more complicated and requires talent, but Lilia's talent is still Yes, so it didn't take long to master even the magic of manual transmission.
This magic needs to be graded, that is, the level of intermediate magic. It is close to advanced magic but still a little worse. It will take a few days for her to switch to advanced magic. Intermediate magic is like that. It was a bit rusty in the first test, but the effect On the contrary, it is good.
The medium she used was a piece of hair, one of her collections, Dan Marina's hair... the result of using it was that she successfully tracked something, but the head was like when she was punished by her mother, neither light nor heavy It was obvious that this method worked, but the Witch of Fate followed her directly and gave her a little lesson.
As for the dangers of such behavior? Changing to someone else would be death. The problem on her side is not serious. Lilia will harass Danmarina when she has nothing to do. She just wants to chat about family affairs. Anyway, the two sides are half the same now. She doesn't have any real friends on weekdays...they are the only ones she can chat with.
At the same time, the magic about the power of fate is tested. Which test target is reliable with the witch of fate? This is true for Lilia, and it is also useful for the Witch of Fate. The same move cannot be used twice. The divination is almost like this for the Witch of Fate. She was affected by this magic once, so naturally she would not was affected for the second time.
"Is this small country going to be destroyed?" Zheng Yichen looked at the small map information on the magic soldier summoning book in the Ziluo hotel chain, grinning slightly, four soul gem holders, two ghosts and gods, one false god, A pseudo-protagonist team trained by Dan Marina.
There are a few man-made witches, and this is what Zheng Yichen learned about "our own people" through some back doors he left behind. There should be more parts that are not his own people, so this place is tossed by the special existence of this group. To destroy the country.
This small country is not stable. Its location is at the border of the Rabster Empire, just next to the Orb Empire. The Orb Empire is now a real action faction. Although the place is very lively, this kind of excitement is basically brought by war mercenaries and adventurers.
Like merchants, there are no large-scale merchants, and the rest are basically those who maintain stores, and all commodities are transported by the magic soldier network. If it really messes up, love What the hell, anyway, not many goods will be lost, the most is that the store is gone.
As far as the hotel where Zheng Yichen lives now, there are not many people in charge. This is the state of a small country facing the threat of war. Civilians who can't leave, and war mercenaries who are planning to make a fortune here.
And the number of regular troops in this small country... 4,000. Of course, this is only the number announced to the outside world. The army is one thing, but the number of professionals is actually more important. After all, it is not a problem for a high-level professional to fight hundreds of them in the face of a fully armed army.
Of course, if the opponent is surrounded and encounters heavy weapons, the possibility of overturning is not small, unless the high-level one is a spellcaster, not a fighter. Even so, the effect of the army will be weakened under the premise of high-end combat power a lot of.
However, it would be much better to switch to an army of professionals who have not yet entered the ranks. It's just that how many professionals can have an army in a small country? Even for non-advanced professionals, three hundred or five hundred? That's all it takes to survive, and more depends on whether this place can afford it. This small country is still a rich place.
Generally speaking, the war between small countries is to fight for armies, and the war between big empires is more about high-end combat power, and the army is more about handling some "challenges", such as when the high-end combat power of the two sides is fighting , is the time for the army to play its role, to clean up the enemy's army or something.
This is the reason why it is difficult for small countries to compete with the empire. They have no real masters. Although they have an army, this kind of army can be easily wiped out by a super master sent by the empire casually. Let’s put it this way, like this For a small country, if there is no special professional to stop it, an artificial witch sent by the Orb Empire can push ten small countries with cities as their kingdoms in one day.
The nuclear bombs on the earth need to be thrown one by one. The mobile nuclear bombs in other worlds cannot be said to be consumables. Strictly speaking, they are all mobile nuclear bomb silos. The kind that can produce nuclear warheads while walking is never a one-time consumable. .
Of course, the Orb Empire can’t go too far, it’s not that they don’t want to do that, but the Templar Church doesn’t mind doing something to the artificial witch and cleaning up the power of the artificial witch. There is a branch of the Templar Church in this place, and the Orb Empire uses other It doesn't matter if the power of the man-made witch is used, the church members here will definitely take the opportunity to do it.
To use that power is to give them a reason to do it.
But the situation here is not a question of whether the artificial witch will make a move or not, but that there are too many unstable factors. Based on Zheng Yichen's statistics, if something really happens, the church branch here may not be as powerful as it should be. It's okay, even if there are hidden saintesses here, one or two hidden saintesses will play a very limited role in the face of greater emergencies.
Even if an existence like the Holy Maiden can explode the mountain with a full attack... just like the abnormal situation in Fengminggu, when Diya shot with all her strength, she directly exploded the super storm gathered there, of course, there is no correspondence with that kind of storm It has something to do with the power controller. If there is a strong person of the same level dominating the storm over there, it will not be so easy to defeat it.
Even so, a storm formed by gathering enough powerful elemental power cannot be easily defeated.
As a saint, Diya can do that. If other saints attack with all their strength, the light cannons fired by them can penetrate from the left to the right in the city of this small country, and sweep across a large area by the way... The crisp kind.
A place without high-end power to suppress it... is really too fragile. Of course, according to the situation here, the chance of being completely wiped out by someone throwing a large-scale attack is very low. Zheng Yichen will not let this happen here. There is a false god religion, and the false god corresponding to the cult is also here. If he doesn't stop it, that false god will stop it, not to mention that the "protagonist team" appointed by the Witch of Fate is also here.
Marina Dan has never been in direct contact with them, but she will never lose her attention. If there is any unexpected situation, they will probably jump out to stop it by chance. This seemingly fragile small country has evolved unconsciously. It became a place similar to a stage.
Specially let some special existences perform, and it goes without saying who these existences are.
"In that case, then..." Zheng Yichen contacted Lily and Zenia, planning to let them come here as well.
"What?? Are you kidding me?" Lilia, who was driving her beloved magic car, looked at Zheng Yichen's message and wanted to scold someone. She had been running for almost two hours, but in the end she asked herself to go back to pick him up! ? ?
"Ahem, it's because I didn't consider it comprehensively. That's good. If you have any needs recently, you can just say it directly, and I won't say anything." Zheng Yichen coughed lightly. The situation just now was slowly analyzed, and then It's not something you can think of at a glance. It's normal to delay a little time. When he told Lilia these things, he felt embarrassed.
Even with the escort of the alchemy avatar, she doesn't need to turn back completely, but she still has to run back for a while.
Lilia sent Zheng Yichen a list very bluntly. As a result of her marginalization in the Holy Church, her own income has also dropped a lot, and she has to make some extra money. Although the Holy Church will not prohibit this, However, there are corresponding restrictions. You can do whatever you want with the extra money you earn with your own ability, as long as it doesn't affect your own duties.
Do something else...then get ready to retake it. No one wants to try the retake course of the Holy Church Church. It's not the teacher's extra love education.
In other words, Lilia, who has not been involved in many church activities recently, is short of money. Although it is okay to tell fortunes as a fortune teller, but the basic knowledge of the fortune teller's entry has instructions. Don't fiddle with the thread of fate when you have nothing to do. That is similar to the fortune-telling on Earth, not referring to charlatans, but those who are really capable... Well, the kind that leaks secrets too many times, and they themselves will suffer disasters.
The prophet is actually similar, but there are more ways to avoid it.
Zheng Yichen glanced at the list sent by Lilia: "It's a small matter, I can prepare things for you when you get there."
Lilia sent over a smiling face thanking the boss, and Zheng Yichen filled out her list without saying a word, wasting an hour or two of cricket time, let alone this little time, even if she was jumping sideways several times I am also willing to let her do the collection of materials on the list by herself, and it will not take more than half a month to get it all right.
As for holding Zheng Yichen's things while receiving Zheng Yichen's benefits, and actively being a salary thief in the Holy Church, she was a little concerned at first, but now...it doesn't matter, what can she do without her on the church side Method?
Some actions involved her. Lilia would still do her best, but if she wasn't allowed to go, what else could she do if she wasn't a salary thief? Be positive? Pull it down, it's all like this, what's the use of being active, she doesn't want to be labeled with ulterior motives, a salary thief is a salary thief.
"How are you guys?" Lilia greeted them with a smile when she saw the two little ghost heads being sent over. Although she could only get the things after arriving at the place, when Lily and Zenia arrived at the pick-up location, Zheng Yichen had already told her that everything on the list was ready.
happy.
"Hello." Lily nodded with a calm expression, greeted briefly, and pulled Zenia into the car together. Lilia looked at the two young girls sitting behind the car in the rearview mirror. , although Lily left the academy and also removed the skin camouflage she used back then, Lilia still recognized her.
These two are not simple existences. They are young but have high-level combat power. Zenia is a girl with a unique ice talent. Lily is a warrior, and she is also a very ferocious combat fighter. She does not follow the magic route. Generally speaking, women will become very manly after mastering the fighting spirit, but Lily's appearance does not reveal those very manly characteristics.
Even the fists can't see any traces of sharpening.
The corpse puppet's powerful recovery properties allow her to easily cover up the traces of physical exercise. Things like calluses will be covered up with the recovery power, making it difficult for people to find.
"It's a bit far away, you can go to the unreal world for a while, and I'll call you when you get there." Seeing that Lily and Zenia didn't mean to talk, Lilia said simply, she knew these two girls, but their friendship There are few aspects, and there is no need to forcefully find topics without topics under the premise of driving.
Use the simplest way to get rid of the children, let them go online to play games, even if it may make the children look crooked, but the two sitting behind are not ordinary people, so just play.
It's just where Lilia said what she said, but the two girls still didn't intend to log into the virtual world to play, and they still sat peacefully, so that when Lilia who was driving occasionally looked at them through the rearview mirror, what she saw was the two Eyes looking straight ahead.
His driving expression also gradually changed from smiling to sad... Two hours later, the two girls bowed their heads and browsed the Magic Soldiers forum, which made Lilia feel relieved. They are really two unpleasant little devils!
On Lilia's way to Zheng Yichen's side, another force that was eyeing the soul gem also began to move. Although the effect of ancient tracking magic cannot be accurate to single-digit positioning, the positioning within one kilometer is already It's very useful, at least until the general outline of the target can be confirmed.
It would be even better if it was in the wilderness. With a diameter of one kilometer, it is not difficult for powerful people to find it. Occupying the commanding heights, one can find where the target is at a glance. Using abandoned soul gems as a medium, they confirmed Among the eight targets, there is a place with the strongest feedback, which means that there are multiple soul gem holders in that place.
Rather than other places that are active alone, surprises come too fast, and the effect of the tracking method is too good, so that this force will act without hesitation. It is true that the Dark Church will be one step ahead of everyone in the research on witch power. But as long as they master something like the soul gem, they can catch up immediately, and they might not be able to rise during the war.
The dark church was able to rise in the first place because it rose in chaos.
As for what kind of soul gem is created, let's talk about it later. After mastering this kind of thing thoroughly, even if the creator of that kind of thing comes to the door, they still have the power to put it into use.
"This is the place." Green looked at the valley ahead and said to Oss. They are now war mercenaries, and what they do is not only to help the client kill hostile war mercenaries or high-end combat power, but also Some search and investigation missions are in.
Now they are here to investigate this valley. There is a hostile force from that small country here. As for why they are allowed to come instead of the small country sending people... They are war mercenaries, so they are not allowed to come here... No, no Let them solve it Let who?
The killing part involved in this investigation mission is not much, so Oss chose it. The other missions are basically the kind of killing and killing, which is quite brutal, and the rhythm of the war is also the same. They will find ways to weaken the enemy's strength. Even high-end combat power.
Ordinary combat power just let the army go up, the real threat is always those high-end combat power.
"We're late." Oss said looking in the direction of the valley. Demon Sword Cultists are extremely sensitive to blood. If there are enough people in the valley, he will definitely be able to perceive something, but what he feels now is only The fire and the burnt blood remained, someone took the first step and cleaned up the people in this valley...
"Go and see the situation first, and be careful." Oss continued. In his perception, the part of the blood burning and evaporating needless to say, the key is the remnant of the flame. The remaining flame is not a normal flame, but a A flame with an ominous feeling.
It's completely different from his pure flame.
Following this anomaly, they came to a camp. The entire camp still had flames that had not been completely burned out, and scorched corpses were scattered all over the place. From these people, we could see obvious signs of struggle, but the signs of struggle looked I don't know what the unbearable pain caused by the high temperature left behind, but the traces of struggle left by extreme fear.
"Avenger?" Green reached out and touched a small grass under his feet. The things here haven't happened for a long time, so the simple memories of these plants have not been lost, allowing him to read what happened not long ago, that is A young man covered in black smoke and flames.
"Let's collect some useful information first." Oss said. They came here mainly for investigation, to investigate whether there are troops hidden by hostile countries in this place, and they found the place, but they were preempted by others. Not only were they preempted Yes, the people here have been cleaned up by the way, and Green's investigation did not find any living people nearby.
They found some badges in the ruins. Although most of them were melted, some of them were well preserved, and they were almost enough to complete the task.
It’s just that when they went back, they obviously underestimated the operation of a country. Even if it is a small country with a good reputation, it will use some means when it should. Xiaoguo sent a notice.
Notification to the Avengers, the other party has a high war bounty waiting to be collected...
"Tsk, it's a good idea to want to draw the Avengers into your camp." Inside the hotel, Green counted the bounties and said that the bounties for investigations are very average. Of course, if more important information is obtained from the investigation, the bounties will be extra What’s more, this time they didn’t do much investigation at all, they just went out for a walk, but they still got the bounty they should have, more because they provided some trace information of the Avengers.
Of course, it also has something to do with their strength.
"Small countries lack high-end combat capabilities, so of course they won't miss this opportunity." Garcia said, not only the Avengers, they have been contacted many times since they came here, and the purpose is naturally a long-term wooing, so that They fight against some high-end combat forces that this country cannot resist.
The one that pays by the number of times is the same as when they entrusted the awakened saintess group to fight against the artificial witch by the number of times.
"It's okay now. The main places where the wars are concentrated are the border areas of the major empires and these small countries in the cracks." Green said that the conflicts in their place are not fierce, and the fierce places have already raged. Now the highest level of combat power in the capital war is high-level professionals, and even the dark warriors have not appeared.
He also thought about the reason, and it was nothing more than a relationship with the Holy Church, but the influence of the Holy Church will not last forever. As long as there is a new fuse and the Witch Power is clearly involved in the war, then Afterwards, this power will become normalized, which has little to do with them...
