The next day.
William brought Xiyan, Burned Cinder, Old Leather, Lautner, and ten other players to Kerenza Grand Duchy.
Kerenza was located to the south of the Lion Kingdom and to the north of the East Sea Metropolis. It was close to the east coast, but it had very little contact with the East Sea. It was a subsidiary duchy of the Lion Kingdom.
This grand duchy had been established more than 600 years ago, and the name of the royal family was Kerenza.
Or rather.
The names of the nations in the Gods' continent were mostly based on the surnames of the founding emperors.
When William and his companions passed through the teleportation portal and arrived at the 'Kerenza Royal City', the players deeply felt the difference between the Human cities and the City of Dawn.
The 'Kerenza Royal City' had a Gothic architectural style that had not changed for hundreds of years. Buildings with pointed arches and ribbed vaults were everywhere.
However, there was very little greenery in the city, and there were very few magic lights on both sides of the roads.
In the morning, when the sun had just risen, the city was foggy. Even the professionals with good eyesight could not see more than ten meters away.
In particular, they discovered that the civilians on the streets were panicking. When they saw an outsider like William, they would marvel at Prince William's good looks, but they did not dare to take another look. They hurriedly bought the necessities at home and hurried home.
"Something's up. It seems that these people are afraid of something!"
"Tsk, tsk. There are many guards in this royal city. After walking for less than 500 meters, I saw three patrolling guards." Forever Alone looked around, as if he was trying to find some clues.
Changli Jiuge suddenly stopped in his tracks. He pushed his spectacles and placed his left hand in his pocket. His right hand pointed at the blood moon pattern on the left side of the wall that had been erased. "Obviously, there's only one truth. The pattern created by the believers of the 'Blood Moon Dark Witch' is the real reason why the civilians here are panicking."
"Pa!" Xiao Ayin slapped Changli Jiuge with the back of her hand.
"What?" Changli Jiuge scratched his head and asked.
Xiao Ayin rolled her eyes and pointed at William, who was disappearing into the fog. "Prince William is about to leave. Moreover, everyone knows that the 'Blood Moon Dark Witch' is the key problem. Otherwise, why would we come here?"
Changli Jiuge swallowed his saliva. "I'm trying to lighten up the atmosphere. This place is quite scary."
Keren Royal City was filled with an eerie silence, whether it was the professional patrolling guards, the civilians walking on the streets, or the peddlers setting up stalls.
No matter what they were doing, they were careful and quiet. They didn't dare to speak loudly at all, as if they were worried that something would notice them.
Changli Jiuge and Nangong Jiuge caught up with William.
From a pitch-black alley on their right, suddenly came a dreadful shriek of terror.
A middle-aged woman covered in blood ran out. Her eyes were filled with despair and fear, as well as her determination to survive.
When Changli Jiuge saw this, he was about to draw his blade and step forward.
But in the blink of an eye.
Countless black tentacles suddenly sprang out from the darkness and immediately dragged the woman into the darkness, leaving only the bloody marks of her hands on the ground …
That kind of unwillingness, that kind of despair, almost instantly tugged at their heartstrings.
However, Changli Jiuge and Xiao Ayin swallowed their saliva. It was as if they had heard some strange background music. They did not dare to move forward at all.
In particular, they had used their insight just now.
Besides the question mark, there was only the word 'Extremely Dangerous'.
However, William and the others also heard the sound. When they turned around, Xiyan could not help but cover her nose. "It stinks."
"It's the smell of dark creatures. Logically speaking, such a foul smell should have attracted the attention of others, right?" Lautner narrowed his eyes.
Before they could enter the pitch-black alley to investigate, a patrol team hurried over.
A patrol squad hurried over. These cautious professionals immediately sealed off the area, but they didn't send anyone into the area either.
They only sprinkled some kind of crystal clear powder at the junction of the alley and the main street. They also arranged for two fearful guards to watch over the area. After that, they did not bother with the area anymore.
Burned Cinder glanced at the items and said in surprise, "This is Holy Light Exorcism Powder, which can only be bought at the Temple of Light. It's very expensive, and it can temporarily prevent the invasion of Advanced dark creatures. But there's a problem …"
"What's the problem?" The group of players was confused. They had not come into contact with such an expensive item.
Xiyan was a little angel who had not revealed her wings. She frowned and explained, "The main function of exorcism powder is to prevent the invasion of Dark World creatures.
"These guards used Holy Light Exorcism Powder on the street. That means that the street in front of us …
"It's no longer the real world. It's an entrance to the Dark World."
"Gosh." Changli Jiuge and Xiao Ayin looked at each other. Fortunately, they did not rush over. If they died in the Dark World, they did not know if they could revive in the City of Dawn.
But when this piece of news was released.
Chu Liuqiu, Lucky Dream, Forever Alone, and even Fatty, who was doing the live broadcast, started to feel afraid.
They looked at William with a strange gaze. This was an S + mission. Did it have to be so terrifying?
If the Blood Moon Dark Witch could turn the capital of a human grand duchy into such a state, and connect it to the Dark World, it would be impossible.
"Then we're really here to die …" The players were speechless. This was indeed the 'extremely dangerous' that Prince William had mentioned.
If the current situation were to continue to develop, they would definitely die. They would die again and again, and they would continue to die.
"Who are you people?" William and his companions were chatting. The patrol captain, who was about to leave, noticed them.
Prince William raised his eyebrows and said, "Lord of the City of Dawn, William Blackleaf."
"You're the Lord of the City of Dawn. Greetings, Prince William." The captain of the patrol team hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Highness, this is the sixth demon-hunting squad that has come to recruit members. Your address is not far away. Shall I take you there now?"
The sixth demon-hunting team?
Was this still an S + level mission?
When the players heard this, they suddenly felt that things were going to get out of hand.
The comments in Fatty's live broadcast did not stop. They seemed to be discussing how these bootlickers should die …
One had to know.
Grand duchies had Grandmaster professionals. Similarly, to become a grand duchy with hundreds of years of history, it was necessary to have Epic professionals.
Even if they had Epic titles, they would definitely not be weak.
The fact that the human Royal City had fallen to such a state despite having an Epic Ranker guarding it meant that they were in big trouble.
Even Changli Jiuge and his companions could not help but discuss. Was Prince William here to seek death?
NO。
Of course, William was not. But he had no reason to explain to the players. He looked at the patrol captain and asked, "Are we the sixth reinforcements? How many members of the first five demon-hunting teams came, and how many died? "
Once he said this.
The middle-aged patrol leader's expression changed. William's eyes were as sharp as the Thunder God's, so he didn't dare to lie. He hurriedly said, "A total of 113 people died. 67 of them died. Three Grandmasters died, and 33 Advanced died. Of the 67 died, a total of 43 had no corpses. They should be … "
"Is that so?" William stroked his chin and patted the captain's shoulder. "I'm not going to the gathering point. I'll continue to walk around."
Just as the captain was about to leave.
Once again, William turned his head and asked, "Are there any demon hunting teams that have more members?"
"It won't happen again. If there are no accidents, you will be the last demon hunting team." The patrol leader smiled bitterly and left with his subordinates with a gloomy expression.
Entrance?
What entrance?
While everyone was feeling a chill in their hearts.
Chu Liuqiu raised his head and looked at the gray sky. He frowned and said, "Time … has not changed."
At this moment.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the unmoving sun. They looked at the gray fog around them. Many players had a brainwave, and they seemed to have thought of something.
At this moment, the corners of William's mouth curled into a smile. As he walked, he said, "Keren Royal City has long been pulled into an alternate dimension. Experts above the Grandmaster level cannot enter.
"We are the last batch of reinforcements. Once we enter this world, the teleportation portal will be closed.
"This alternate dimension will no longer be connected to the real world.
"What we have to do now is to pull the Keren Kingdom back into the real world."
The ten players' hearts skipped a beat. F * ck, Wang Defa, Ganlin Niang!
Even Lautner and the others, who did not know the truth, were dumbfounded. They did not know what William was trying to do. No matter how high the rewards were, there was no need for him to risk his life for such a troublesome mission, right?
William was the Lord of the City of Dawn.
His future was limitless. Why did he come here to seek death?
William looked at the dumbfounded expressions on everyone's faces. He explained again, "This is a game. It's a game played by a Legendary Devil Lord.
"Although the words of a devil cannot be trusted!
"If he wants to continue playing, he has to abide by the rules that he has set." Let's not talk about who this person is.
"Anyway, since we're here, we have to defeat his game. We have to bring the Keren Kingdom back to the Legendary continent.
"Or …
"We can only watch as the Keren Kingdom is dragged into the Dark World forever."
"Don't tell me that you're kind-hearted and that you're here for the sake of the commoners. "Moreover, I don't believe that the Human Empire is unaware of such a huge incident in the Keren Kingdom." Xiyan could not help but ask. The Human Empire had never been afraid of the threat of the devils. Where was their dominance? They could just let the sages destroy them.
William extended his claws to rub the little angel's head, but she did not allow it. He could only explain, "There are entrances to the Dark World everywhere in this city. In other words, this city is about to fall into the Dark World. If the Legendary Devil Lord makes a move, the entire city will fall into complete darkness.
"This is a trick left behind by the Blood Moon Dark Witch. No one discovered it, but now it's too late.
"Even if the Human sages come, they can't do anything about it. They can only play a game with the Legendary devil and see who will be the final victor.
"Of course, we don't have to worry. As the rescuers, as long as we don't die accidentally, the Human sages will be able to rescue us before the city falls into the Dark World.
"Do you think that I'm not afraid of death?"
"You know a lot …" The corners of Lautner's mouth twitched.
William raised his eyebrows and did not waste any more time. "From now on, all of you have to follow me closely. Time seems to have stopped here, but in a few hours, it will turn from day to night.
"At that time.
"The sun will disappear.
"Night will fall.
"The moment the Blood Moon appears.
"That's when we have to move."
"What for?"
"Find the Blood Moon Dark Witch who is about to be resurrected and kill her again. At the same time, look for my old friend."
"…" Everyone was speechless. Who knew how to kill her? The Keren Kingdom was definitely out of tricks. They probably did not have the method to deal with the black witches. The Epic expert probably had his own troubles. Otherwise, he would not have asked for reinforcements.
Time passed slowly.
The moment darkness fell.
The entire city was shrouded in thick fog. Other than the useless magic lamps, there was no other light.
But the Blood Moon in the sky.
It seemed to be very close to them.
It was extremely huge!
Darkness and fear spread in the hearts of countless people …
