The Survival Rules of NPCs

Chapter 141 Imitating a Legend?

"Father...she just now..."

'

A quarter of an hour later, the mysterious female knight had disappeared, leaving the two with what seemed absurd, yet was the only hope in this utterly desperate situation.

The old man was also shocked by what the other person had just said.

The man named Mr. Bright belongs to the Imperial Intelligence Division II and reports directly to the current King Jarvan VIII. He was valued by the emperor from the first year of his reign and established a dense intelligence network in the southern border. The network covers not only the southern border of the Beth Empire but also the Southern Witch Alliance and the two major powers of Mirandil. He has also planted many of his own people in Holy Stone City. For example, the knight just now is a knight under Lady Elizabeth, the current acting city lord of Holy Stone City.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will be the next Knight Commander.

That female knight was able to infiltrate a castle guarded by a high-level demon, so her level must be at least level 40 or higher. Such a level is still considered an extraordinary profession. If she were in the army, she would be at least a count!

But he was willing to serve as a knight to a widow in an inconspicuous little town?

Such forbearance and dedication are things you only find in fictional novels.

According to the female knight, the mysterious Mr. Bright had already noticed the Southern Witch Alliance's conspiracy three years ago and had reported it to the emperor many times, urging him to be on guard. However, although the current king is an enlightened monarch, his foundation is too shallow and he is too young. In the capital, he is entangled with the forces of various families, making it difficult to get the other legions of the empire to launch an attack on the Southern Witch Alliance in advance without decisive evidence. After all, the king's current power base is the anti-war faction!

After two years of fruitless efforts, Mr. Bright had almost foreseen today's outcome. He couldn't count on the King, nor could he count on the Duke, so he could only rely on himself!

He secretly used various resources to build a mysterious city somewhere on this grassland. The city was extremely expensive and had extraordinary effects. He needed to rescue the empire's elite troops as much as possible after the defense line collapsed, and protect them in the safe city so that the empire could counterattack and preserve its strength!

My purpose in infiltrating here this time is to inform them to cooperate in the prison break and to go to the mysterious city that Mr. Bright mentioned!

"A mysterious city? Could such a thing exist?" Centurion Franklin felt as if he were listening to a novel.

"There have been such events in history..." The old count squinted his eyes: "Among the legendary events, there is the story of the mysterious city, which comes from Merlin, the legendary archmage of the Xiaer Empire. At that time, the Xiaer Empire was attacked by the alliance of seven countries, and the crisis of national subjugation was imminent. Just like the Beth Empire today, the capital's high-ranking officials were full of cowardly nobles who opposed the war, which caused delays in frontline warplanes and almost led to the collapse."

"But that sorcerer Merlin created a spatial city, rescued the captured elite of the empire, and hid them within that mysterious spatial city. Once it reached a certain size, they began harassing the rear of the Seven Kingdoms. Through that magical castle and various guerrilla tactics, they relentlessly crippled the logistics of the Seven Kingdoms. This event was recorded as a legend, the most miraculous battle in a thousand years, and that archmage Merlin, thanks to the mysterious city, became one of the seven great legends of the past millennium!"

"Although he has passed away, his academic research in the field of space has been recognized by the Char Empire as the most authoritative school of space magic, and it has been passed down to this day. It is also the most popular mage course at Char University."

"It is said that the key to that spatial city is still in the hands of the royal family of the Xia Empire, and is an important strategic weapon to deter the seven kingdoms."

one! "

"To be honest, when I first saw this record, if it weren't recorded in official history, I would have doubted its authenticity. And now, the so-called head of Intelligence Division Two, Mr. Bright, is going to emulate that legendary mage and do the same thing!!"

"This..." Franklin didn't know what to say for a moment. He wanted to say that the other party was crazy and that it was a fantasy, but if he said that, wouldn't it mean that they had no chance of survival?

These southern barbarians clearly have no intention of following the rules. Their fate is almost predictable: everyone, including their wives and children, as well as the captured warriors of the Silver Fox Knights, will become sacrifices!

The thought of his seven-year-old daughter and his beautiful wife, who had always supported him, being skinned and skinned alive in front of him, subjected to the most brutal form of demonic sacrifice, drove him to the brink of madness.

Now, it seems that the only chance for them to escape this fate is Mr. Bright's absurd idea!

"Is there any chance?" Finally, in despair, even if the question seemed unrealistic, Franklin was like a drowning man grasping at a straw.

Looking at his despairing son, the old father sighed inwardly, "If only... he also had a city of space..."

"Are you sure? Can we really do something like this?"

Several players, looking at the map and listening to Gou Dan and Yu Nu Wu Gua's analysis from afar, all felt it was unbelievable!

At this moment, in the villa, Yu Nu Wu Gua also felt her blood boiling. In the past, her ambition was only to become a staff member of the court or a lawyer in a high-end law firm, to make some money and bring Li Gou Dan and the prince ashore. She did not ask for much wealth in this life, nor did she crave the so-called nobility. She only hoped to have a decent job and a slightly more decent life.

However, due to Han Du's deliberate targeting, she saw no hope for such a request for five or six years.

But it's only been a few months since he met Mr. Bright?

First, she was involved in the major lawsuit concerning Lady Eliza's control of Holy Stone City, then she spearheaded the power struggle between the Shadow Faction and the Elf Faction, and now she's about to intervene in the course of an epic battle.

Do they even want to recreate the beginning of a legendary event?

Thinking about this, Yu Nu Wu Gua felt that this was the life she wanted. She had never been one to settle for mediocrity. Transmigrating to become a lawyer? That's not even as good as staying in her hometown with a 996 work schedule!

"Everyone, the mission is very demanding, but there is a chance of success!"

Rain Woman quickly marked on the map: "Through Wang Gou Dan's two nights of undercover investigation, it turns out that the invading Southern Witch Alliance is actually not stable. Their military structure has major problems. In order to achieve results as soon as possible and control those castles on the southern border, the Southern Witch Alliance has spread its forces too loosely. This... is our opportunity!"

"According to the investigation, the main force of these southern barbarians is a sorcerer profession called witch priests, who are skilled in painful curses and demon summoning. The number of southern barbarian warriors they are equipped with is actually very small, given that they are divided into multiple groups. For example, in the castle where Count Franklin was trapped, after it was confirmed to be under control, there were fewer than a hundred southern barbarian warriors left to guard it, and only seven sorcerers. The reason it appears to be large in scale is because they have performed human sacrifices too many times, summoning a large number of low-level demons!"

"Each castle is guarded by tens of thousands of demons, which is the source of their confidence to divide their forces. However, this structural model has a fatal weakness, which is that the priest must ensure sufficient security."

"Because all demons are controlled through shamans, and once a shaman dies, these demons will either be forced back or descend into chaos, possibly even turning on the local barbarians. And for us, what we're best at right now..."

It was an assassination attempt!

The assassin players behind Tangyuan were stunned, and suddenly felt a mix of excitement and trepidation. After playing bystanders for so long, was it finally their turn?

The problem is, wouldn't assassinating a priest of this caliber be a bit... risky?

"The assassination will create chaos, then we can quickly rescue the first batch of Silver Fox Knights. This gives us a good chance to wipe out the fortress's defenses in one fell swoop. This is the first step!"

"We are in the rear. Once the rear fortress falls, the already dispersed Nanman army will definitely receive the news and quickly return."

While the enemy forces are pursuing them, during this lull in the fighting, if we can make the rescued herders and warriors believe that a mysterious city truly exists to save them, and believe in the Shadow Kingdom, then... Mr. Bright can create a city even safer than Merlin's back then!

"If this works out, then everyone, the era that truly belongs to us players... will have begun!"
