Chapter 249 Am I late?
Chapter 249 Am I late? (Kunai, God's robe.jpg)
“Finally there’s some people.”
Russell looked at the town in the distance and couldn't help but feel relieved.
He didn't know where he was sent to, but it was definitely not the Ming Dynasty.
Because after he left the beach, he entered a forest, but he didn't see any signs of living people for a long time.
Russell even suspected that the location of the secret place might be some desolate island on the sea.
If it is really a large island, he doesn’t know when he will return to Ming Dynasty, and the risks at sea are also considerable.
Fortunately, the small town that appeared before his eyes proved that it was not an island.
“I need to ask someone.”
To be on the safe side, Russell decided to let the ghost soldier capture an ordinary person. Anyway, he was just going to inquire about his location.
Soon, the ghost soldier emerged from the shadows with a man who was shaking like a sieve.
As soon as the man appeared, he kowtowed repeatedly and shouted some words that Russell was familiar with but still couldn't understand.
It feels similar to the Xiba dialect I spoke before I traveled through time, but there are some differences.
By this time he had a rough idea of where he was, but it was still better to confirm it.
"Shut him up."
Russell waved his hand with a headache, asking the ghost soldier to control the man and stop him from making noise.
But who would have thought that after hearing Russell's voice, the man was not shaking as violently. He just raised his head and looked at him in fear, and then mumbled a few words.
Seeing the man's expression, Russell always felt that this man seemed to know him.
Just when Russell was puzzled, Luffy, who was standing beside him bored, suddenly said: "Russell, he asked if you are the card maker from Ming Dynasty."
Russell was attracted by Luffy's words and turned to look at the straw hat youth: "Luffy, can you understand?"
Hearing this, Luffy shook his head honestly: "I don't understand, but I can understand what he means."
Russell was stunned, and then suddenly remembered one of Luffy's characteristics.
[Listen to the Voice of All Things]: Being able to understand the language of all things in the world may sometimes produce unexpected results.
He really didn't expect that this feature would come in handy at a time like this.
But when you think about it, Roger, who also possesses this ability, can even hear the sound of historical texts, so it doesn't seem so outrageous that Luffy can understand what the person in front of him means.
"Then ask where this place is."
Russell immediately decided to let Luffy communicate with the person in front of him.
Luffy scratched his head hesitantly: "Let me try."
After he finished speaking, he started gesticulating with his hands.
The amazing thing is that the man seemed to really understand what Luffy meant, and responded blankly: "*&%¥#"
Luffy stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Russell, "He said this is Goryeo and the town below is Jeonju City."
"It's really Goryeo."
Russell was not wrong in his guess. The reason why the secret realm had not been found by the Dongleika Association was entirely because the location where the space crack appeared was not within the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
At this moment, since he had determined his location, Russell no longer hesitated and immediately prepared to rush back to Donglai.
However, as if the man had noticed his intention, he tried to kowtow but was held down by the ghost soldier.
After struggling for a few times, the man spoke a long paragraph anxiously.
After listening to this, Luffy looked at Russell blankly: "Russell."
"He said the town below is a place where demons are kept."
"He wants you to rescue the residents of the city."
Russell frowned slightly, and when he was about to say something, a voice suddenly came from not far away: "What are you two doing?!"
"Want to escape? Today I will treat you as blood food for the adults!"
"Tomorrow I'll be your family!"
Russell's face turned cold, and he turned around and looked at the person who came as if he was looking at a corpse.
He had already recognized the identity of the person who came.
demon.
Although what the other party said was clearly not the official language of the Ming Dynasty, he could understand its meaning.
Seeing Russell looking at him, the demon couldn't help feeling a little scared, and immediately became angry and wanted to say a few more harsh words.
unfortunately
"Shh."
The purple sickle slashed across, and the ferocious white spider slowly retracted its forelimbs behind the unknown demon: "So cool."
"Spider-boy, my scythe attack finally succeeded once."
Behind her was a headless corpse.
Seeing this scene, the man was so excited that he couldn't express it in words. When he lowered his head and was about to say something, he realized that his shoulder, which was being pressed on, suddenly loosened.
When he looked up, he was the only one left at the scene.
The man stood up in a daze. When he was about to leave, he caught a glimpse of several objects placed on the ground in front of him.
It is three pieces of black iron grade materials and a set of card making materials.
He first looked around blankly, then carefully picked up the items on the ground and kowtowed reverently several times towards the place where Russell had originally stood.
On the other side, Russell was speeding towards the east under the leadership of Spider-Girl.
He has no time to play the savior game right now. Even if he really wants to play, he will go back to Donglai. He is the president of the Card Master Association of Donglai in Ming Dynasty, not Goryeo.
Moreover, Donglai's current situation is not optimistic, so he dare not waste any time.
All Russell could do was leave a set of Black Iron-level materials to the man as a reward for asking for directions.
God helps those who save themselves. How far a man can go depends on himself.
Donglai.
Lu Yan and the other two were breathing rapidly. The situation in this area of the city was getting worse and worse.
Although branches in other areas have already sent support here, without Russell they can only confront the gold-level demons led by Li Shuo.
More importantly, the demons in Guiyi Sect can ignore the lives of civilians, but they can’t.
Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. The monsters of Guiyi Sect do not abide by any moral codes.
Besides, there is not only the Guiyi Sect in the city. What if those crazy people from the Qiling Society cause trouble at this time?
However, this is what Lu Yan and Liu Yu thought only. If Zeng Bo knew about this, he would probably just protest in his heart.
Doesn’t he know whether the Begging Spirits Society will cause trouble?
After the purge some time ago, the remaining members of the Donglai Qiling Society were all stable factors carefully selected by him, the director of the Public Security Office.
Although this is only compared with the previous unstable factors.
On the other side, unlike Lu Yan and the other two who were solemn, Li Shuo was humming a Goryeo folk song and jokingly looking at the association's card makers who were in a tough battle.
"The sacrifice should be complete."
"It's a pity that we can only perform one sacrifice in a short period of time, otherwise the plan would have been successful by now."
Although he felt a little regretful, Li Shuo was still extremely proud.
"The long-cherished wish is finally coming true."
Thinking that he would soon be able to touch that place, he couldn't help but tremble all over.
As he was thinking, he suddenly started to mock Lu Yan: "Who is the stray dog now?"
But after seeing the calm expressions of the three people, Li Shuo felt a little bored.
"never mind."
"Go to hell and meet your guild master."
As soon as he finished speaking, the offensive of the Guiyi Sect members present suddenly became more fierce.
Li Shuo's [Ancestor of the Tranquil Morning·Dangun] and [Lord of the Northern Temple·Jinlingjun] also suddenly launched an attack.
With the cooperation of the gold-level monsters present, the first person to be killed on the card was Liu Yu.
It’s not because of any other reason, but mainly because he only has one gold-level card on hand.
Feeling his gold-level card entering cooldown, Liu Yu gritted his teeth and summoned the silver-level card he used in the national competition.
In a one-on-one fight, his silver-level cards might be able to defeat the weakest gold-level monsters, but it is not enough in the current battle situation.
Soon, Zeng Bo and Lu Yan's cards also saw reductions in number.
Although they had more than one gold-level card, the situation was still sliding irreversibly into the abyss.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Yan said seriously to Zeng Bo beside him: "I will cover you later. You find a chance to rush out of this area and then ask for help from above."
Zeng Bo nodded silently, he knew this was the last resort.
But how could Li Shuo not be prepared?
With a sneer, the copycat King's Army of Dangun reappeared.
It’s a pity that Russell didn’t stop it this time.
Seeing that the three of them were blocked, even Zeng Bo, who usually had a expressionless face, showed a hint of despair on his face.
Are they really going to die here today?
Just when all kinds of attacks were about to overwhelm Lu Yan and his companions, a cold voice suddenly sounded: "The 81st Binding Technique: Breaking the Sky."
A transparent barrier instantly appeared in front of the three people and blocked all attacks.
Looking at the defensive measures in front of them, the three of them felt an indescribable sense of security in their hearts.
Then, a figure emerged from the shadows beside them.
"Am I late?"
A familiar boy's voice sounded, and the three of them turned their heads to look at him, with shock and ecstasy on their faces: "President!?"
"You're not dead?!"
The person who came was Russell.
Through Spider-Man's continuous use of space magic, he finally rushed back to Donglai.
In other words, he was finally replaced by a ghost soldier to lead the way, otherwise he would have reached the battlefield even faster.
At the same time, unlike Lü Yan and the other two who were ecstatic, Li Shuo also widened his eyes, as if he had seen something incredible: "You're not dead?!"
The same words, but the emotions they convey are completely opposite.
Then the middle-aged man asked in surprise: "Did Dick and Menia stop you?"
Perhaps Li Shuo had already guessed the answer at this time, but he was unwilling to believe that it was true.
Unfortunately, the next scene shattered his fantasy and made him feel cold all over.
"Dick? Menea?"
Russell smiled sarcastically as if he had heard something funny, then stared at the red-robed man opposite him with eyes without any warmth.
"Aren't they here?"
As he finished speaking, two half-kneeling ghost soldiers appeared in the shadows at his feet.
What they held in their hands were the heads of Dick and Menia mentioned by Li Shuo.
A blood-stained head with eyes open after death.
Seeing this scene, Li Shuo opened his mouth blankly, but didn't know what to say.
".?"
