Xu Sili looked at Sirene and gently held her hand. "Also, you need to rest."
"Sister Huang, you can't fight an unprepared battle."
"In your current state, you're not going to avenge Brother Huang. You're going to feed the interstellar beasts."
He had already used Insight to check her status. Not to mention her HP, her magic was almost empty. Looking at her exhausted appearance, it would be strange if she could kill the interstellar beasts.
"Go rest on the spaceship for a night. Recover your magic and stamina, and then repair your equipment. I'll take you to kill them tomorrow afternoon at the latest, okay?"
Sirene stared blankly at the young man in front of her. At this moment, she truly realized that this brother of hers was completely different from what she remembered.
Looking at his calm and steady face and hearing his gentle and firm words, she felt a lump in her throat and tears surged out again.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her disheartened mind, which only wanted to die with the interstellar beasts, regained a trace of calmness and clarity.
Yes, Snow was right.
Even if she wanted to avenge Brother Huang, she couldn't face the enemy in such a terrible state.
Seeing her nod, Xu Sili couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Then, he looked behind him. "Si Sheng, can you help me find the Senos?"
His gaze fell to the ground below.
If they were alive, he needed to see the bodies. He couldn't leave the bodies of the Senos here.
Sirene suddenly pulled on his sleeve. Xu Sili turned around and heard her say in a trembling voice, "The attackers … were the Mountain-Quarrying Beasts … I'm afraid Brother Huang is already …"
She couldn't finish her sentence.
However, Xu Sili understood.
The Mountain-Quarrying Beasts were the kings of the underground. This kind of collapse wasn't a big problem for them. The Senos were most likely already eaten …
Thinking of the young man who gave him the healing bracelet, Xu Sili couldn't help but feel a stabbing pain in his heart.
He pursed his lips and said, "Go rest on the spaceship first. Leave this to us."
Sirene's mental state was very unstable. She couldn't take any more shocks.
Sirene looked at him and then at her feet.
She took another deep breath.
After all, she was someone who had experienced so many life-and-death situations, and she had led everyone to survive for four years in the wilderness. Her soul was tougher and stronger than anyone else's.
She had lost control for a moment because the impact was too great. However, with Xu Sili's persuasion, she finally adjusted herself.
"Alright, Imperial Brother …"
Her voice carried a strong sobbing tone, and she almost couldn't continue speaking. She forcibly suppressed it and said, "I'll leave Imperial Brother to you, no matter … no matter how much you can get back, please."
"I promised him that I would bring him home …"
"Please …"
At the end of her sentence, she closed her eyes and finally collapsed due to exhaustion. Xu Sili reached out and caught her.
He sighed and handed Sirene to Cha Mo, asking him to take her back to the spaceship to rest. Before he left, he gave a few more instructions.
Then, they left the crater, and Si Sheng took control of the land to search for the Senos' remains.
He could only hope that he could still find it …
Xu Sili pursed his lips tightly, and his heart was heavy.
On the way here from the base, he had heard Brady and the others describe the Senos situation.
With his body, it was almost impossible for him to survive the attack of the beasts and the crater. It was a luxury to even hope that his body was intact.
Xu Sili frowned.
He had already accepted their deaths, but he didn't expect them to still be alive. He still couldn't save the Senos …
If only he had known about them a little earlier, if only …
But there was no such thing.
This sense of guilt and helplessness was unbearable.
Xu Sili silently looked at the crater below, then looked at the surrounding forest that was still emitting a dangerous aura. He didn't know when the interstellar beasts would attack, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.
He had to make this country strong as soon as possible so that the tragedy of the Senos and the late emperor would never happen again.
He took a deep breath and quickly calmed his emotions. He began to plan his revenge.
Since he had promised Sirene, he would do it. There was less than a day left.
He had to make all the preparations before Sirene recovered.
Brady and the others didn't leave. Everyone was feeling very conflicted.
They didn't expect that someone from the Empire would come the next day after the base was repaired and the news was sent out. It was even the Emperor himself.
Of course, there was excitement and joy at surviving a disaster, but at this moment, there was a layer of haze over the death of the crown prince.
"Sir, I am also an Earth Elementalist. Let me help."
Abner said to Si Sheng.
Si Sheng had risen to power four years ago during the Beast Tide. These people who were stranded outside during the Beast Tide did not know this Guardian of Roland.
Si Sheng didn't really want to talk to him, but he still tilted his head and looked at Xu Sili to ask for his opinion.
Did he need the Little Emperor's approval for such a thing …
Abner also looked at the young man standing beside the crater, his eyes eager.
Xu Sili thought about it and said solemnly, "Very well, I'll leave this to you."
They were also Senos' subordinates and should not be negligent in this matter. He already had a preliminary plan for tomorrow's battle, and now he had to seize the time to plan.
"Si Sheng, let's go back to the spaceship."
After Xu Sili finished speaking, he looked at Brady and the others. "It's not safe here. You should be careful, but don't worry too much. I will let the people on the spaceship cover you."
"After you find … use the communicator to inform Xiao Wu. He will take you to the spaceship."
Xu Sili left them the latest communicator model. There was a signal transmitter on the spaceship, so they could use the communicator model to communicate.
Finally, he said:
"If Sirene makes any moves, help to stop her. Everything will wait until Si Sheng and I return. As for here … Senos died to save you. I hope you can remember that."
Although the little Emperor's tone was calm, Brady and the others subconsciously straightened their backs.
"Your Majesty, don't worry! We will not slack off at all! "
Xu Sili glanced at their faces one by one, then nodded and turned to tell Si Sheng to depart.
After Si Sheng disappeared with him, the few of them looked at the huge spaceship in the sky and exchanged glances with each other.
His Majesty Snow …
This was not what they had imagined.
"But he was still too impulsive." James sighed. "This is far from the Imperial City. So what if we can kill some interstellar beasts?"
He hoped that after finding the body of His Highness Senos, they would immediately return and leave this dangerous place.
After struggling for so many years, he did not want to see any more casualties.
Brady shook his head and said understandingly, "Humans are not plants. Her Highness Sirene needs to vent. These four years … she has suffered too much."
She was the most respected Imperial Duke. What kind of life had she been living all these years …
And the most pitiful was the Crown Prince …
James fell silent. Abner rubbed his chin. "Am I the only one who is curious? How did His Majesty and Sir Si Sheng leave?"
Wasn't he an Earth Elementalist? How could he disappear on the spot? If he remembered correctly, that was a wind elemental skill, right?
No one could answer his question, and no one was in the mood to investigate. They were all vigilant of their surroundings and urging him to start quickly.
Just as the little Emperor said, this place was not safe.
Thus, they were left behind. Xu Sili and Si Sheng returned to the cabin and met up with Cha Mo.
Sirene was arranged to stay in a room with a bionic robot butler. There was no need to worry for the time being.
"Are we going back to the Imperial City now?"
After hearing Xu Sili's question, Cha Mo pondered for a moment and nodded.
"I can try."
He had not been here before, so he was not confident.
Now that he had come here personally, the return destination was Roland's Imperial City. He had stayed in this place for almost half a year, so it should not be a problem to locate the location.
Xu Sili heard this and nodded.
If they could use the space tunnel to go back directly, they would save a lot of time.
Next, Cha Mo turned into a silver wolf and jumped into the space crack to try. Taking advantage of this gap, Xu Sili turned on the communication device and began to issue orders to the players through the mercenary platform.
After a while, Cha Mo jumped back from the space crack and nodded. "Your Majesty, it is possible."
"Good!"
Xu Sili said, "Then let's go back immediately!"
Today was the second day of the open beta. After the chaos at the beginning, the new players had begun to integrate into the Roland Empire under the guidance of the veteran players and NPCs.
The major gaming guilds had also begun to rise and crazily absorbed new blood. There were gaming guilds with battle teams and solo players.
Of course, the guilds … no, the leaders of the major mercenary groups were all veteran players in the first and second beta.
Mercenary groups were divided into nine levels: SSS, SS, S, A to F, and so on. Each level required the completion of a certain level of difficulty mission to level up. Furthermore, they had to complete a certain number of missions on a regular basis. Otherwise, they would be demoted.
Currently, in the game, only the top ten gaming teams had barely managed to level up their mercenary groups to level E, and the maximum number of members was increased to 500.
Ten teams with 500 members would only have 5,000 members. The total number of players in the open beta had reached 16,000, so the gaming teams would naturally not let go of the remaining players.
To solve the problem of the maximum number of members, other than leveling up, of course there were other ways —
Create new low-level guilds and develop groups of two, three, four, five, and six.
As a result, in just one day, the newly registered mercenary groups at the Mercenary Association's headquarters had broken the record of the past 100 years in Roland.
This was something that couldn't be helped. Level F mercenary groups could only recruit 50 members at most. Even if they registered 10 groups at once, that would only be 500 members.
In order to accommodate more members, the major gaming teams could only let their members complete more missions to level up.
The game had just started its open beta, so it was the most active time for the players.
Fortunately, after the first and second beta, the people of the Roland Empire had also gotten used to this group of brave players. They were still very welcoming to these brave players who were always rushing to do work.
Just as the leaders of the major mercenary groups were busy instructing their members to complete missions to level up, they suddenly received a notification from the mercenary platform.
[Level S Mission: All leaders of the major mercenary groups are requested to gather at the Imperial City Teleportation Portal before dawn tomorrow.]
The notification in bold and red letters was hard to ignore.
Tomorrow before dawn? That means to gather at the Imperial City Teleportation Portal before 6 am tomorrow? What was this for?
It was just an Level S mission!
According to the rules, mercenary groups could only accept missions that were two levels higher than their own level. In other words, under normal circumstances, the players could only accept Level C missions at most.
But now, they were directly issued an Level S mission! This was definitely an exception.
From the way the notification was sent, this mission was very likely to be directly issued by the Roland officials. Many players smelled something unusual.
Something must have happened.
In short, as long as the leaders of the mercenary groups saw the notification, they immediately set off for the Imperial City.
Now that there were teleportation portals between the cities, it was very convenient to travel between the cities. The most time-consuming thing was actually to travel within the cities. After all, the area of a city was equivalent to the size of a province in reality.
However, during the closed beta period, there were obvious changes in Roland's transportation system.
In just two months, a very developed transportation network was established in the major cities. With the help of Earth Elementalists, it often took less than a day to complete a road.
In addition to the transportation tools previously purchased by Xu Sili and the products launched by Xiao Wu's military factory, now in Roland, not only the hover cars, but also the hover buses and the hover trains were officially put into use.
These latest types of transportation completely replaced the old methods of transportation such as horse carriages and brought a new change to the lives of the people of Roland.
And the leaders of these mercenary groups were now enjoying the benefits of this change.
Finally, at 6 am the next day, the last leader of the mercenary group finally made it. After coming out of the teleportation portal, the Imperial City Teleportation Hall was directly closed and no longer received anyone.
The leaders of the major mercenary groups gathered in front of the Teleportation Hall and looked at each other, not knowing what to do next.
In mid-air, Xu Sili nodded in satisfaction as he gazed at the 156 mercenary group leaders who had arrived.
10 Level E mercenary groups and 146 Level F mercenary groups added up to more than 10,000 people. This gave him confidence for the battle in the afternoon.
"Brother Sheng, let's go down to the Summoning Hall," Xu Sili said to Si Sheng.
Si Sheng carried him and flashed into the Summoning Hall, which was also the spawn point of the players.
At the spawn point, there were still players continuously appearing, but with Si Sheng around, the players did not notice them at all.
Xu Sili swaggered to the center of the Summoning Circle, took out a Four-Star Beast Core from the space capsule, and directly stuffed it into the groove in the center of the circle.
That's right, after yesterday's strong supervision and inspection, Roland's Imperial City finally met the requirements for leveling up to Level 4.
This time, he did not do a live broadcast, and did not even let others know, directly leveling up the Imperial City.
Thus, under the shocked gazes of the players and Roland's citizens, the Summoning Circle lit up and formed a pillar of light that reached the sky.
After the light pillar's brightness reached its peak, it spread out again.
At this moment, countless people simultaneously felt as if the shackles on their bodies had been loosened. This feeling was very familiar, because more than five months ago, they had experienced it once.
"Another layer of the seal has been unlocked!"
"It's His Majesty!"
"Looks like Roland's national strength has increased again, the Empire is really getting better and better!"
"Ahhh, I feel like I've broken through!"
"I … I feel like I've sensed the elements? I see some small green light spots around me … Ahhh, is it because I've successfully learned Meditation? "
"…"
All the citizens cheered, and although the players felt very confused, the system notification clearly told them the benefits that the light pillar brought to them —
[Roland's Imperial City leveled up to Level 4, Elementalist level cap increased to Level 40]
[Bathed in Holy Light, you have a new understanding, all attributes + 10]
F * ck, f * ck, all stats + 10! What a great thing! Did all the online players get it? Wouldn't the offline players suffer a huge loss?
Many people were confused by the sudden leveling up of the Imperial City, but they were still happy to receive benefits.
And this kind of happiness was still continuing!
Not long after the light pillar rose up from the Imperial City, four more light pillars rose up from the other four cities of Roland one after another!
The leveling up of the other cities only gave one or two attribute points, but when the four cities added together, it was close to 10 attribute points!
Xu Sili did not expect that the leveling up of the cities would bring such benefits to the online players.
However, the players' attributes were already 10 times lower than the NPCs, and these 20 attribute points could slightly increase the survival ability of the players in the wild, so he was happy to see this happen.
The leveling up of the other four cities was naturally done by him notifying the governors of each city. They had already met the requirements, but were still limited by the Imperial City's level cap.
After the level cap was unlocked, Xu Sili's experience bar that he had accumulated over the past few months began to come into play.
[Ding. Experience bar full, Personal Level increased from Level 30 to Level 31 … Omni Points + 10]
[Ding. Experience bar full, Personal Level increased from Level 31 to Level 32 … Omni Points + 10]
[…]
His level was forcefully pushed from Level 30 to Level 37.
After all, this was the amount of experience points that he had accumulated through the crazy construction of the five cities. Coupled with the experience points that he had obtained from the battle of the Separation Sea and assisting in the killing of the Galactic Beasts, the total amount of experience points that he had accumulated had reached a terrifying level.
Xu Sili felt that all his attributes had increased, and the seven-level increase also gave him 70 Omni Points that he could use.
This time, he put all of them into his Spirit attribute.
He tried it out a little and found that without using the piccolo, the range of his Spirit could already extend up to one or two kilometers.
He suddenly looked at Si Sheng and said, "Brother Sheng, I've become stronger again."
Hearing this, Si Sheng smiled slightly.
He was never surprised by his speed of improvement. "Yes, Ali is very strong."
He looked forward to the day when the young man completely caught up to him.
Xu Sili understood the look in his eyes and could not help but smile. At this time, there was a commotion outside. It seemed that the hundred or so mercenary group leaders could not stay any longer.
However, Xu Sili was not in a hurry to go out.
He asked Si Sheng to bring him to the Teleportation Hall next door.
Since he was going to do it, he had to do something big!
He could not let Si Sheng directly kill the Galactic Beasts because he could not only consider Roland, but also reality.
However, if this was a server-wide event that involved the players, then even if the game team had any opinions, they had to hold it in!
The Teleportation Hall had been emptied according to his instructions. Xu Sili stood beside the teleportation portal and looked at Si Sheng. "Brother Sheng, I'll try first. If it doesn't work, then you go."
"Okay."
Si Sheng stayed by his side, ready to take over at any time.
Xu Sili bent down slightly and placed his palm on the teleportation portal. He released the abundant Spirit that he had just obtained —
Card Skill, Activate!
This was his first time using the card skill. Although he had just become an apprentice card master, his Spirit strength had already reached the three-star standard.
Therefore, at his request, Lilith taught him the skill.
Just like that, the teleportation portal that was dozens of meters in diameter began to disappear under his Spirit strength. It gradually gathered in mid-air and formed the outline of a card.
Xu Sili slowly felt the strain.
He realized that the teleportation portal was still too big. With his current Spirit strength, he could turn the teleportation portal into a card, but he might have to sacrifice some of its functions.
If that was the case, then there was no point in turning the teleportation portal into a card.
Just as he was about to give up, the man's hand pressed on the back of his hand. The vigorous golden power gently wrapped around him, providing him with a steady stream of energy.
Xu Sili's heart skipped a beat. He turned to look at Si Sheng.
"Focus." Si Sheng reminded him, but the power that guided him was still so gentle and protective, as if there was some kind of comfort.
Xu Sili pursed his lips. He did not think about anything else and focused his attention.
Therefore, the two of them completed the transformation of the teleportation portal into a card. Then, they left the empty ground and walked out of the Teleportation Hall with the teleportation portal card.
The players were still in a heated discussion and did not notice the two of them walking out hand in hand.
Looking at the crowd of more than a hundred players who did not know what was going to happen next, Xu Sili looked at Si Sheng and revealed a slightly evil smile.
"Brother Sheng, they've troubled you too."
