Strange Voyage: Summoning the Fourth Disaster.

Chapter 185 The War Ends
The situation in Sea Area No. 1 is very good.

The situation on the battlefield where Rogge was located also began to develop in a good direction.

Although the Firewood Stealer took great pains to send in a giant firewood-eating sea monster, it was ultimately a waste of effort.

When Rogge and the players were prepared, the Wage Taker had already lost the most important advantage of sneak attack.

Judging from the power currently displayed outside the dark border, it is almost impossible for them to pose further threats to Zhuxin Island.

The Firewood Grabbers and the Firewood Devouring Sea Monsters who are now on the battlefield are just struggling to survive.

Rogge even deliberately released some salary-stealers to increase the war contributions for the players.

However, this is his view from the perspective of the overall war situation. If viewed from an individual perspective, the giant firewood-eating sea monster in front of the players can be said to be very troublesome.

This terrifying behemoth not only has a strong body and abundant physical strength, it even knows all kinds of strange magic. It has almost no weaknesses and is capable of attacking at both long and short distances.

Judging from the grade, it should be the next grade below burning charcoal.

Therefore, with such a strong foundation, even if the players themselves were injured, they fought hard and the situation became stalemate...

"Ok?"

Roger suddenly regained his attention.

Outside the area where Zhuxin Island was anchored, the force that attempted to invade here suddenly subsided!
The Wage Takers have retreated!
Their retreat was extremely decisive, without any trace of lingering feelings or any signs, as if they had anticipated the outcome and immediately turned around and left.

Thinking of this, Rogge felt relieved, but he was still wary of a surprise attack.

After some time had passed, Rogge finally confirmed that the Wage Stealers had indeed retreated.

He quickly began to control the power of the spirit candle and started to fight back.

At the same time, looking at the players who were still fighting, Rogge also allocated some of his strength to suppress the giant firewood-eating sea monster.

hum-

An invisible force pressed down the huge body of the giant firewood-eating sea monster, making movement extremely difficult.

This made it roar angrily, and the tentacles under the giant jar were baring their fangs and claws, struggling constantly, as if it was its last madness.

[Attention! The Wage Takers have retreated, and we have won this war. Please clear out the remaining Wage Takers on the battlefield! ]

"Won!"

"Awesome brothers!"

"Oh, I won already, and I didn't even try hard, it's not satisfying."

"Go ahead and brag. I've seen you running away several times."

"Hey, stop talking nonsense. Let's kill this giant firewood-eating sea monster first and see what treasures it drops!"

Seeing that they had won, the players were naturally very happy. The pressure in their hearts suddenly eased and they started to tease each other.

At this time, the remaining firewood grabbers on the battlefield seemed to be unclear about their fate, or perhaps they had no wisdom at all and were still resisting as usual.

But this could not change the situation. Under the players' fearless charge, the firewood snatchers kept dying one after another, and no more large earthen jars appeared in the dark border.

The giant firewood-eating sea monster in the center of the battlefield is already at the end of its strength.

More and more players drew their hands and focused their fire on it.

Many players who ignited the deep-sea worms directly transformed into fire forms and began to fight them head-on.

Of course, even though it looks about the same size, it still can't withstand the attack of the giant firewood-eating sea monster and is as fragile as paper.

However, the giant firewood-eating sea monster has obviously fallen into its final madness.

After struggling for more than ten minutes, three sixth-level players who used the Explosive Bull Routine ignited the explosion flames directly at the injured part of the animal, completely destroying it.

With its strength exhausted and its blood drained, the giant firewood-eating sea monster could only let out a painful wail before falling into the sea, its huge body gradually beginning to melt away.

Rogge released the blue candle flame in time and burned it out.

[Attention! The firewood snatchers have retreated, all enemies on the battlefield have been eliminated, and this regional war has been won! ]

[The giant firewood-eating sea monster has been killed, and war contributions are being distributed...]

[The special drops of the Fire Devouring Giant Sea Monster and the Fallen Fire Knight have been placed in this exchange library...]

[Calculating war contribution...]

The appearance of the game prompts made all the players breathe a sigh of relief, and they all started laughing and joking with each other.

"Finally we won. I was afraid that the Fire-Taker would break through the defense line and kill the Candle-Keeper."

"I can understand that you are worried about the Spirit Candle... But are you worried about the Candle Keeper? The injuries to the Firewood Devouring Sea Monster were probably caused by him."

"How did the drops from this giant firewood-eating sea monster end up in the exchange library? Sigh..."

"What? You still want to grab it with your hands? Can you grab it?"

"..."

While chatting, they also started cleaning the battlefield.

Although the items dropped by these firewood snatchers are average, they are numerous and occasionally some relatively useful items will appear.

The unclean wax is also quite useful. It can be used as a prop to drive away monsters. It is also good for running around after resetting the copy.

……

The old players began to leave the battlefield one by one, sharing and showing off the war with the players outside.

After all, some low-level players are not qualified to enter the battlefield and can only watch from outside.

Some players were naturally very dissatisfied with this, but Rogge could only pretend not to see it.

To the players, this is just an event in the game, but to him, it is a war that could threaten his survival. How could he allow these low-level players to die?
Of course, now that the war is over, the Wage Takers will probably not launch a new round of offensives in the short term.

He still has a lot of things to do next, the first of which is the issue of players' war contributions.

To be honest, he didn't think much about this at first.

After all, the home is about to be lost, who would bother to take care of these things?
But now that we have won, we have to think about it carefully.

Weapons, equipment, special props, etc. definitely need to be included...

But it’s better to add some other things, otherwise it will be no different from a store…

What should I add...

After thinking for a moment, Roger's eyes suddenly lit up and he had an idea.

……

[War contribution has been settled]

[Contribution store is now open, you can redeem it yourself]

After chatting with other players for a while, Li Miao noticed the new prompt given by the system.

Oh? The contribution store is open?
Seeing this, Li Miao curiously opened the contribution store and started browsing.

【Currently held contribution: 512】

Because he killed a lot of Wyrmeaters, and every player who entered the battlefield had a basic war contribution and a reward for killing the Wyrmeater, his war contribution seemed relatively rich.

However, compared with the wide variety of goods in the contribution store, his war contribution is a bit insignificant.

The things in the Contribution Shop are similar to those in the Candle Keeper's Shop, whether it is weapons, equipment, accessories, special items, skills, or consumables, all are sold. There are also some top-notch and unique items that cannot be bought in the Candle Keeper's Shop.

For example, several pieces of equipment related to this giant firewood-eating sea monster.

【Shinbu: Firewood-eating poison touch】

[Type: Skill Book]

【quality:? 】

[Effect: Recite a prayer to summon giant poisonous tentacles, which damage the enemy and poison them at the same time. The larger the size of the tentacles, the stronger the effect.] [Description: A powerful prayer that the Firewood Devouring Sea Monster is born with.]

Many players on the battlefield have experienced the prayer skill of this giant firewood-eating sea monster. Most of the squishy players are killed on the spot, while those with more blood die relatively slower. It is very powerful.

The key point is that this skill seems to be affected by the user's size, which is quite interesting.

Of course, this thing is not cheap, it costs 500 war contributions, and many people cannot learn this skill level now.

The same is true for the following skills such as [Echoes of Firewood], which are very expensive and cannot be used now.

But these things seem to be limited.

Li Miao continued to scroll down.

Then I saw the skills of [Fallen Fire Knight].

[Fallen Fire Knight] seems to be a faith + constitution route, which is somewhat different from Li Miao's strength and physical route.

This made Li Miao suppress his desire to buy.

"Why are these all skills? Don't these two big bosses drop equipment?"

Li Miao was a little confused.

But as he scrolled through the store, he soon realized why the contribution store no longer sold equipment.

【Fallen Knight Helmet (Fashion)】

【Type: Fashion】

[Effect: No effect, but can be overlapped with other equipment, will not affect combat, will not block vision, and will not be damaged (bound). ]

[Explanation: The Fallen Fire Knight came along with the Fire Stealer and was filled with malice towards the candlelight. He seemed to be connected to the power of corruption.]

[Price: 400 War Contribution]

In addition to helmets, breastplates, arm armor, leg armor, etc. are also available.

There is also a set of costumes for the Firewood Stealer, which is a clay pot head.

New fashion!
The reason why they don’t sell equipment is that they disassembled the appearances of the Fallen Fire Knight and the Firebelly Kraken into costumes and sold them. No wonder!
Li Miao immediately understood.

Naturally, he had learned about the existence of the Fallen Fire Knight from the conversation. He heard that this thing looked quite cool, so he was also looking forward to the corresponding equipment.

Now it’s made into fashion and sold... It’s fine, he just wants the appearance anyway.

That’s the price. It’s a bit expensive. I probably need to fight several dynamic wars to get enough of it, right?

Thinking of this, Li Miao scratched his head.

Looking at the chat group and world channel, other players were also discussing this issue.

My son failed the exam, but I got it: "The fashions in this contribution shop are a bit expensive..."

Black Mountain Little Demon: "I give up. This war contribution cannot be traded..."

Braum is really not deaf: "Hahahaha, the krypton gold boss is epically weakened."

Battle is awesome: "I want that sledgehammer, but my contribution is not enough. When can we start the next big war?"

I did push-ups with the Bull: "This Fire-Eating Giant Sea Monster suit looks good."

Time to eat mushrooms: "...what's your aesthetic, this thing is ugly as hell?"

My son failed the exam, so I got on board: "It's really annoying. The knight suit is released first again. I am sure now that the planner must be one of the players hiding among those stupid knights!"

"..."

Whether old players or newbies, there seems to be no objection to the contribution store, especially those costumes that are actually useless.

Even though the price was high and it was obvious that they would have to fight several large-scale wars to obtain it, they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Some players even think that only three sets of costumes are a bit too few, and suggest getting a few more sets...

Fashion, after all, is good-looking but not practical.

……

After resolving the issue of war contribution, Rogge also breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, fortunately.

We have to thank some game manufacturers for their long-term spice-up for players, which has resulted in players now having a preconceived notion about "fashion", which is that it is flashy and impractical.

Otherwise, he might not be able to find anything good to satisfy the players' appetite for a while.

But he also knew it very well.

Fashion can only be used as embellishment to meet the needs of players, and should even be made as little as possible.

After all, the players’ main task is to help him explore the map and fight monsters, so their own strength is very important.

If there are too many costumes, and players don't improve their strength to pursue costumes, then it's a waste of time...

"Mr. Roger."

"Lord Rogge..."

At this time, Master Burton and Nonia also arrived and saluted him.

After Nonia looked at Roger with concern and found that there was nothing wrong with him, she breathed a sigh of relief, briefly reported her previous situation, and then stood aside quietly.

Master Burton's expression was rather solemn, and he spoke seriously afterwards.

"Mr. Roger..."

"Just call me Rogue, Master Burton." Rogue responded with a smile. Master Burton had already gained his trust.

Hearing this, Master Burton nodded, but he didn't have time to be polite, so he got straight to the point.

"Have you heard of the Fallen Fire Knight that appeared in this war?"

Hearing this, Roger looked at Nonia beside him.

She shook her head slightly. It was impossible for Roger to know this.

"Fallen Fire Knight...is there anything special about him?" Rogge frowned slightly.

He was not in Sea Area No. 1, so naturally he knew relatively little about the Fallen Fire Knight.

If Burton didn't kill him and kept him for Rogge, maybe he could get some information, but it was obviously impossible to demand this in a battle.

"Fallen Fire... This is a force that existed before the disaster." Mage Burton said in a deep voice: "I recalled for a long time before I found some clues about them."

"Some traveling fire witches died because of them, and even from the situation in some overthrown countries, they were also involved..."

"There is probably an inseparable connection between the Fire Stealers and the Fallen Fire."

Burton said seriously.

Hearing the words that some fire witches died because of him, Nonia couldn't help but pursed her lips and silently moved a little closer to Rogge.

After listening to this, Rogge nodded and took note of the news.

Nonia and Master Burton soon left to perform their respective duties.

Previously on the battlefield, after the players killed the giant firewood-eating sea monster, he directly used candlelight to burn it to death, and naturally gained some feedback from it.

The Firewood Devouring Sea Monster is a giant monster cultivated by the Firewood Takers, and it has only one purpose - to devour everything related to "firewood", whether it is dead or alive.

Although I don't know what "Xinhuo" specifically refers to,
But in Rogge's opinion, this so-called "flame" either refers to some high-level life forms such as gods, or refers to existences such as "candlelight" and "bonfire".

The goal of the Fire-stealers is to completely destroy everything related to the Fire...
