Chapter 125 [Ceratops Armor]

The "summoning" of the "Temple of Overturning" is a very subtle special spiritual fluctuation transmitted through the [No. 7 Overturning Mask]. Then, as long as the mask wearer responds to this "summoning", he can be teleported to the "Temple of Overturning".

What Ryan felt at this moment was the "summoning" feeling from the mask.

Ryan's pause in the process of serving soup immediately attracted the attention of Freni and Cecilia.

"What's wrong?" Miss Witch asked with concern, and although Cecilia did not speak, she also cast an inquiring look.

"The summoning of the Temple of Overturning." Ryan did not hide: "I have only joined for a few days, and the summoning appeared..."

"Captain, I'll go in and take a look."

Ryan's eyes were full of interest.

In fact, the invitation of the "Temple of Overturning" to him was a bit too "abrupt" and "anxious".

Ryan didn't know what the "Temple of Overturning" had in mind when it asked Green Tide No. 4 to "invite" him, but it was certain that if he hadn't shown enough strength and potential at the time, the subsequent development would definitely not be like this.

And thinking carefully, from the time he landed on the island to the interception of Green Tide No. 4, the only special thing he experienced in the middle was the "theft of the holy object", and there was only one person closely related to the theft of the holy object - the fantasy beast witch Meloye.

In this series of events, what role did the fantasy beast witch Meloye play?

What kind of relationship does she have with the "Temple of Overturning"?

Now, the only way Ryan can contact the fantasy beast witch Meloye is with a "sound transmission conch" given to him by the other party.

"After this "summoning" is over, I can ask Meloye for clarification."

Ryan said to himself.

"... Is it a call from the Overturned Palace?" Freni's eyes narrowed slightly: "Be sure to be careful."

Ryan nodded slightly: "I'll pay attention."

"Then, I'll go over."

After saying that, Ryan raised his hand and pressed it on the forehead of the mask, silently reciting in his heart: "Overturned Palace".

The ten-second countdown ended, and the strange spiritual fluctuations suddenly descended with [Overturned Mask No. 7] as the coordinate point. During the period, accompanied by a flash of gray mist, Ryan's body disappeared from the spot.

Freni, who was watching the entire transmission process, looked more and more solemn.

Because she found that even if she used magic power, it was still difficult to interfere with the gray mist.

"Such a high status..."

Miss Witch pursed her lips.

The existence of the "Overturned Palace" made her slightly shaken in her decision to stay on the outlying island and take advantage of the situation.

This undercurrent that affected the entire Kingdom of Saint Tos seemed to be more turbulent than she expected.

...

The gray mist in front of her gradually faded away.

When Ryan's vision returned to normal, the familiar dim underground hall appeared in front of him.

On the brass chairs on both sides of the neatly arranged long table, No. 4 Green Tide, No. 5 Blue Bell and No. 6 Blue Mountain were all seated.

In addition to the three "Sons of Overthrow" that Ryan had seen before, a figure also appeared on seat No. 3.

Ryan's eyes fell on this person.

He/she wore a white hooded robe and a yellow mask on his face. He/she was neither fat nor thin. The loose robe concealed the characteristics of the body, making it impossible for Ryan to distinguish the specific gender of this person.

Ryan's arrival also attracted the attention of the white-robed masked man on seat No. 3.

He (unclear gender, referred to as he) greeted Ryan's gaze with his pale golden pupils under the mask, and said in a neutral voice: "Newcomer? I'm No. 3, codename 'Huang Bing'."

"No. 7, Zi Feng."

Ryan nodded slightly, and at this moment a purple mask appeared on his face, which was the original appearance of [No. 7 Overturning Mask] - all members who entered the "Overturning Hall", no matter what appearance they simulated with the Overturning Mask, will return to their original appearance after entering here.

After a brief acquaintance, neither side planned to say more. Ryan walked to his seat and sat down, waiting patiently.

And Qing Ling, who was sitting next to him (the seats on both sides of the long table were 2, 4, 6 on the left, and 3, 5, 7 on the right), said: "We just completed the monthly 'Exchange Meeting' a few days ago. It's only been a few days, and we received another 'summoning'. Is there a special mission?"

The cold voice echoed, and Qing Ling's words were more like an explanation for Ryan than an inquiry.

"You're right."

A gentle female voice full of magnetism sounded, and at some point, the puppet body of "Chi Yuan" emerged from the No. 1 seat at the head of the long table.

"No. 2 can't come, and the rest of the people are all here, so let's start our special mission announcement."

"Chi Yuan"'s words made the eyes of several people present solemn.

Special missions are the irresistible call of "Sons of Overturning".

This is also the obligation that the master "Chi Yuan" informed in advance before joining the "Palace of Overturning". Those who violate it will be severely punished.

While enjoying the convenience, you must also bear the obligations.

Although Ryan will not be bound by the "Contract Blood Oath", on the surface, he still put on a serious look.

Whether to carry out special missions is one thing, but if you don't even pretend, it would be too fake.

At least so far, the "Palace of Overturning" has brought him a lot of convenience.

If the special mission does not endanger his own safety, it is okay to carry it out.

The voice of "Red Kite" echoed in the ears of every member:

"Today at twelve o'clock at noon, the Libra Holy Cult will hold a 'sacred ceremony' in front of the main hall. According to reliable information, so far, the Libra Holy Cult has still not been able to recover the 'sacred object', which also means that they cannot start.' Sacred Scales'.

"Without the suppression of the 'Holy Scale', the opening of the entrance to the underground labyrinth is unstoppable."

"The content of this special mission requires you to go to the entrance to the ninth floor of the underground maze and prevent anyone from entering."

"What needs special attention is that a group of unknown men in black robes have sneaked into the special area where the entrance to the underground labyrinth is located, which has not been opened yet - the Saint-Phile Underground Rift. The main target of your defense is this group of men in black robes. ”

"When the underground labyrinth first opens, a large number of monsters will emerge, and these monsters will hinder the speed of the men in black robes from entering the underground labyrinth. Princess Water Drop will arrange for you to enter Saint Phile through a special secret passage controlled by the royal family. In terms of progress, the underground rift valley will not lag far behind these black-robed people."

"The requirement for this special mission is that after you arrive at the entrance to the ninth floor, you must stop anyone who attempts to enter. The time limit is at least one day."

"The mission is very difficult, so except for me and No. 2, everyone else is dispatched. Once you encounter irresistible danger, you can choose to teleport back to the Overturned Palace, and I will teleport you to a safe place later. But in this case, this special mission will be considered a failure. After completing this special mission, each participant who persists to the end will receive a mid-level rare item as a reward."

As soon as the word "intermediate strange object" came out, Ryan clearly felt that the breathing of the surrounding members became heavier, and even he was very surprised.

Intermediate-level wonders are completely different from low-level wonders.

Even third-level hero professionals are basically unlikely to possess mid-level rare objects. Creatures of this level will only begin to appear in the hands of fourth-level professionals, and even fourth-level professionals can possess them. not much.

The preciousness of this thing can be seen from the only mid-level rare item that Ryan currently possesses [Big Sword·True Red Crown Horn] - the main material of this big sword, according to Master Golden Hammer, is strength. The material on the monster is stronger than the average fourth-level monster, and it is very suitable for forging weapons. This is how I finally got this powerful mid-level rare item.

If Ryan didn't have the [Unnamed Ship Sculpture], the Traveling Clone wouldn't be able to kill the [Higher Level] Unicorn Dragon. It would be impossible for him to possess an intermediate rare item.

The allure of mid-level rare objects is naturally self-evident.

Of course, such huge benefits naturally also represent unparalleled risks.

There was no fool among the people present, so after the initial excitement, they all calmed down quickly.

"Lanshan" sitting in seat 6 buzzed: "Are these people in black robes strong?"

"It's very strong."

"Red Yuan" did not deny it, and affirmed "Lan Shan" openly: "These black-robed men have unknown origins and possess some very special spirituality. When fighting them, you must avoid direct contact with their spirituality." body, otherwise it is likely to be put into a state of severe weakness."

"There are not many of these black-robed men, but they basically have third-level strength."

After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Level three!

And he has some kind of special spirituality that can put those who come into contact into a state of intense weakness!

"Qing Ling and Zifeng have come into contact with these black-robed men. They know the details better."

As soon as the words "Red Yuan" came out, No. 3 Huang Bing, No. 4 Green Chao and No. 6 Lan Shan immediately turned their attention to the two of them.

Ryan glanced at Qing Ling, who responded with a slight nod.

Suddenly, Ryan understood.

This matter should have been reported to Chi Yuan by Qing Ling.

Ryan was not surprised by this.

The existence of the man in black robe was too dangerous. Qing Ling knew that she could not deal with the man in black robe alone. The only way was to report the matter to the palace master Chi Yuan.

Facing everyone's gaze, Qing Ling said in a cold voice: "These men in black robes can use their special black spirituality to construct an attack called the 'Heart-Eating Seal'. Once hit, they will continue to bite. If you want to eliminate the spirit of the one in the middle, you can only stop and do it wholeheartedly, but under the attack of the black-robed man, it is impossible to do this unless someone is covering you."

"The men in black robes move very fast, and conventional concealment methods seem to have no effect on them."

"They also seem to have a way of using special spirituality to build teleportation arrays. When fighting them, it is best to prepare a faster attack method in advance to interrupt their teleportation."

"That's roughly the situation."

After listening to Qing Ling's story, everyone subconsciously looked at Ryan.

According to what Chi Yuan said, besides Qing Ling, Zifeng was also the one who encountered the man in black robe.

Ryan said solemnly: "I have two points to add."

"In addition to being spiritually weird, these men in black robes also possess some extremely powerful recovery methods. Even injuries like broken hearts and fallen heads cannot kill them completely."

"Maybe their bodies are different from ordinary people? I'm not sure about this."

"But their recovery is not without cost. If you kill them a few more times, you should be able to kill them completely."

"In addition, apart from their special spirituality, the frontal combat effectiveness of these men in black robes is weaker than that of normal professionals."

The first point that Ryan added made the eyes of the remaining people change slightly. The man in black robe, who was already a great threat, needed to be killed several more times to be completely killed, which undoubtedly cast a shadow on their hearts.

Fortunately, the second piece of information Ryan added is one of the few pieces of good news.

"You already know the information pretty much."

"Later, at 11:30 in the morning, before the start of the 'sacred ceremony', Princess Water Drop will perform a teleportation. After that, she will take you into a special secret passage to the Saint-Phile Underground Rift. Remember to respond."

"There are still a few hours until the mission starts. If there is anything that needs to be dealt with, please resolve it as soon as possible."

"above."

The voice of "Red Kite" gradually drifted away, and her puppet body also disappeared from seat 1.

Ryan glanced at the people on both sides of the long table, focused on Huang Bing No. 3, paused, and then chose to exit the "Palace of Overturning".

Gray mist flowed in front of his eyes, and the next second, his body disappeared from the seat.

Qing Ling withdrew her eyes and silently looked at Seat 7. She didn't know whether her report of the black-robed man had aroused Zifeng's dissatisfaction.

In fact, although she reported the situation of the man in black robe, she did not disclose anything about Zifeng.

With a slight sigh in her heart, she also chose to quit.

Soon, Huang Bing, who was sitting in seat 3, was the only one left in the Overturned Palace.

The eyes under his mask looked at the place where No. 7 Zifeng disappeared, and chuckled: "Such a pure look and aura, he seems to be a very strong guy."

…

Islands, beaches, campfires.

With the fleeting gray mist, Ryan's body appeared at the position before the teleportation.

He opened his eyes and immediately saw Freni, who was looking at her with concern: "How are you, are you okay?"

Ryan shook his head slightly: "It's okay."

"However, this summons from the Overturned Palace is quite interesting."

After he roughly narrated the contents of the special mission, he said thoughtfully: "It seems that the 'Red Kite' should roughly know the identities of these black-robed men, otherwise there would be no need to go to war in such a big way, or even make a promise for this." Such a sky-high reward for ‘mid-level rare items’.”

"These men in black robes are a big problem."

Freni frowned slightly: "It's so dangerous, your decision is to go or not to go?"

"Go, why don't you go." Ryan said with a smile: "Why don't you go with the mid-level rare items? Not to mention that if you encounter excessive risks, there is also a 'teleport' evacuation as a guarantee."

"Our goal is to go to the underground maze. I will go in with the people from the Overturned Palace first. With them sharing the risk, the risk factor will be much smaller."

"You stay outside the maze to provide support. Once there is a situation, you can provide timely support."

"When the situation becomes clearer, you can come in with those who are trying to enter the underground maze to make a fortune."

Freni did not speak, but remained slightly silent. After a few seconds, she took a deep breath: "Since this is the decision you have made, all I can do is support... But before that, these things You accept it.”

The dark blue space ring on Freni's finger flickered with light, and then ten crystal stones emitting a shimmering light appeared in her palm.

"Here are five [first-order healing crystals] and five [first-order spiritual recovery crystals]. You may bring them with you. You may need them. By the way, the effect of the latter crystal is to restore spirituality."

Freni currently has a total of 27,932 [Spiritual Essence] points on hand. If possible, she would like to exchange [Second-Level Spirituality Enhancement Crystal] and [Second-Level Physical Enhancement Crystal], precious resources that can enhance hard power, for Ryan. Use it to help him strengthen his strength, but Ryan's rank is only level one and he cannot use these two items at all.

Therefore, Freni could only do the next best thing and exchanged a batch of crystals for healing and spiritual restoration.

After taking the ten crystals, Ryan nodded slightly: "I understand."

"By the way, Captain, I'm going to go to the blacksmith shop in the city later. I need help from Master Golden Hammer for something."

"Wait a moment." Miss Witch stood up and walked to Ryan.

As the distance got closer, Ryan could vaguely smell a faint fragrance.

Freni raised her white, jade-like finger and tapped it in front of Ryan's eyebrows: "This trip is dangerous, so I drew the Dark Moon Demon Pattern for you. It can hold up a more powerful protective shield in times of crisis, and it can pass through You can also contact me at any time."

Ryan didn't dodge.

He believed that Phryne would not harm him.

Of course, the most critical thing is the [Unnamed Ship Sculpture]. With its existence, any curse that affects spirituality or even true spirits cannot affect Ryan.

The soft touch came from the place where the eyebrows were in contact with Freni's fingers. With the sliding of the white fingers, Ryan felt a faint warmth flowing between the eyebrows.

In Cecilia's eyes, a strange dark blue pattern shaped like a full moon appeared on Ryan's originally smooth eyebrows.

After the "Dark Moon Demonic Pattern" was drawn, Freni's face became very pale, and she even staggered a bit, which showed the terrifying cost of drawing this magical pattern.

Cecilia took a step forward and wanted to help Freni. The latter quickly stabilized her body and shook her head slightly at the knight girl: "I'm fine. It's just a little consumption. I will recover after resting."

Ryan looked at Miss Witch, who couldn't hide the tiredness in her eyes, and felt complicated.

At this moment, a new display appeared on his main body panel.

——

[Title]: Bloody Son, Overturned Son (Blood Oath Contract is invalid), Dark Moon Favored One (Special magic pattern drawn by Dark Moon Witch consuming the origin, which can bring protection effect to the drawn one, remaining time: 23:59:59)

——

A special title with time limit!

From the "consume origin" in the prompt, we can know that the price to pay for drawing the "Dark Moon Magic Pattern" is not as simple as Frenee said.

But Ryan did not expose this, but silently chose to accept the girl's kindness.

After going through so many things together, he can no longer remember how much favor he owed Frenee.

During this period, although he had made some repayments, it was far from enough to offset what Frenee gave him.

After a few seconds of silence, Ryan stood up: "Captain, then I'm leaving."

"Well, be careful on the road." Frenee smiled with a pale face, and the fluffy witch hat on her head shook slightly.

...

After a while,

Ryan came to the door of the Golden Hammer Blacksmith Shop in Saint Tos City.

Today is the "Day of the Plenty Star", and there are obviously more pedestrians on the street than yesterday, including many adventurers and pirates.

Ryan did not pay much attention to these "hyenas". He came to Master Golden Hammer mainly to ask Master Golden Hammer to embed the [Super Heart Embedded Glass Bead] on the [Great Sword Red Crown Horn].

This extremely rare glass bead will bring great blessing to his combat power.

Standing at the door of the blacksmith shop, Ryan knocked on the door.

To his surprise, the door opened quickly.

Originally, he thought that Master Golden Hammer, who was busy making protective gear, would open the door later.

"You kid, you came so early?"

Master Jinchui was a little confused: "How do you know I have made your protective gear?"

Hearing this, Ryan's eyes showed surprise, and then explained: "Master Jinchui, I came here to ask you for something else."

"But since you have made the protective gear, can I go and take a look first?"

"Sure." Master Jinchui said indifferently.

Under his guidance, Ryan came to the compartment behind the blacksmith shop and saw a majestic and domineering armor.

——[Horned Dragon Armor]
