Chapter 514 Main Mission ② Rescue the Hostages

Taiko Building.

The huge storage warehouse has very few strategic-level resources left due to the refining of Gluttonous Black Light.

Jiang He came to the deepest part, on the high platform, in a box made entirely of white bones, ten test tubes containing bright red liquid were quietly placed. Just getting close to it gave people a sense of anger.

Gluttony has refined the storage warehouse's warning system. Since the entire fortress only produces five units per year, after decades of the Doomsday Calendar, there are only sixteen accumulated anger factors, but they are enough to hold sixteen mass awakening ceremonies involving thousands of people.

This is an important war reserve material for the fortress, which can quickly produce tens of thousands of low-level magicians.

"It is more than enough to compensate the students for the accident during the ceremony..."

"But what does it have to do with me?"

Jiang He chewed up all sixteen bright red potions and swallowed them. These anger factors were only a tiny part of the Angry Immortal's legacy. It would be impossible to create a complete heroic creature, but improving one ability was not a big problem.

[Tip: Your Great Magic Reversal has been upgraded to the Immortal Level, and the reversal effect on the outside world has been significantly enhanced]
Jiang He felt his own energy boiling. In fact, since becoming a great power, the number of times and magnitude of his strength increase have been significant, but the overlord can deal a heavy blow to the great powers. The gap between the two is naturally a world of difference. If it were not too difficult, the overlord would not be difficult to be born.

"My capacity has not yet reached its limit."

Jiang He concluded that the first time he became a powerful person was after the life-and-death battle with Dragon City in the Bronze Age. However, ever since he became a player, he seemed to have been living in wars and battles. The capacity of a living being is like appetite, which is influenced by both innate and acquired factors, but it is not something that a golden creature can understand fundamentally for the time being.

call!
Spatial confinement is transformed into spatial access.

Jiang He went straight to the outside of the building and returned to Jiuye Villa through Junlin.

Currently, A Da, A Er and A San have all been transferred to Zhuang Ya's item bag in the form of coffins. Once they encounter danger, the three guys who have been silently tempering their souls will immediately give up and run out to cover the battle. After all, the time ring means they can start over again.

Dawn is approaching.

Because someone was away, Zhuang Ya had the huge bed in the villa's guest room all to herself. Looking from the side, she saw a small girl curled up in the quilt, and on a chair not far away, a vicious guard was taking turns guarding.

Jiang He stood beside the bed for a moment, his eyes showing some hesitation, and asked, "Will this kind of security make her feel a little suffocated?"

The red-haired woman half-lying on the bed, holding her cheek with her bare hands, smiled and said, "It's not your style to think about this kind of question. If you must give an answer, I think it depends on the person. You may not like this controlled atmosphere, but for the demon race who have lived alone for hundreds of years, a sense of security is more important."

Lilith said softly, "Let's not talk about Lao Hei for now. At least Wuhe is willing to follow you all the time, and even risk his life at the critical moment. It's nothing more than that you usually take on the most dangerous battles. This determination is worth following."

No matter whether it is the Grey Knight, Dragon City, Knight King, or the Black Marquis, Marquis Severis, Duke of Fish, or the most recent powerful Salt Lord, there is always only one opponent on the front battlefield.

It is obvious that even though there are heroic spirits that can be revived later, the other party is still reluctant to let their animal companions face threats.

Jiang He did not answer, and the false hesitation in his eyes disappeared completely.

"So." Lilith smiled gently, "I didn't stir up discord between your team. Have I passed the test?"

"If you were weaker," Jiang He said calmly, "there wouldn't be any need for us to go through so much trouble."

"How is that possible?" Lilith's smile faded, and she said seriously, "How could I give up my strength for someone else? Even if it's you, even if it's my only god's favor, I can't do that. Do you think it's easy to become a god after coming from a small place?"

"You are a princess, I am a fisherman, the difficulty is different."

"Hey, I killed the king, who dares to question that I am not the princess? Come to think of it, it was those old guys who took the initiative to ask me to inherit the throne. Everyone just saw through it but didn't say anything."

Jiang He was almost speechless.

"Is there a word of truth in your mouth?"

"Who knows." Lilith smiled and blew a kiss, then disappeared.

Jiang He starts King's Landing and heads to the Magic High School.

-

The dawn is breaking.

Conference room on the 33rd floor of the Operations Building.

The mysterious discipline chief is still not here. He is visiting students' families overnight. This awakening accident almost caused the school to offend all walks of life in the fortress society.

"The operation failed." Nanase Maki sighed, "There are only 57 freshmen who have awakened three basic magics. We can't even fill up the A and B classes. I'm done for."

Yin Ren sipped his wine silently. Miss Nanase accepted the re-employment not only because of the recent unusual movements of the Blood Nation True Ancestors, but also because they wanted to take over as the vice-president in the future. The school's tenure experience was crucial. The five-year secret contract required that no major mistakes should be made. This ritual accident meant that she would have to work for five years in vain.

With such a heavy price to pay, even at the risk of committing a serious crime, they were willing to attack the Taiko Building. Unfortunately, the result was a complete failure.

The head of the accounting department was a petite girl, not much taller than the table. After hearing the director's lament, she stammered, "Maybe... we can make up for it with military exploits..."

Kamishiro Mirai looked at the wilderness map and said hesitantly, "Then I'm afraid we'll have to conquer Shizuoka Prefecture."

The territory actually controlled by the Blood Nation is the Shikoku region of the old era, with Nagoya as the front line, guarded by the True Ancestor of the Night, who has many powerful upper nobles under his command.

Behind Shizuoka Prefecture is Nagoya, and the upper nobles currently occupying the area are none other than the subordinates of the True Ancestor of the Night who were defeated in the battle to retake Kanagawa.

Due to the harsh living environment, Tokyo Fortress has a very high recognition for the cultivation of magical talents and military merits in war.

"That's what I said." Nanase Maki raised the communicator weakly, "But unfortunately, everyone here is a suspect. You are not allowed to leave the fortress or enter the security area before the trial. The specific time for the trial to begin depends on the result from the principal."

Kamishiro Mirai was surprised and said, "Nanase-senpai, I didn't receive any relevant notification."

She looked at the communicator and saw that Class A's outdoor survival test this weekend was held as scheduled, but she didn't know when the location was changed to Kanagawa Prefecture.

Nanase Maki narrowed her eyes and said, "Maybe the weight of training is higher than judgment. In that case..."

Silver Blade understood and continued, "Then let the Operations Department guide Class A to complete the test, and send out the Magic Guard to escort them."

"With the prince's strength," Nanase Maki pondered, "we have a chance to kill several high-ranking nobles in Shizuoka Prefecture. When a real fight breaks out, the army stationed outside the wall in Kanagawa will have to support us. As long as we can win, everything will be fine."

"My dear fellow prince, you should compensate me."

Maki Nanase looked at someone. If the other party had not absorbed the anger factor wantonly, things would not have been so troublesome. She did not mean to blame him. After all, obtaining the power of the ritual depends on personal potential. But as members of the action department, it is normal to help each other.

Jiang He had been tasting the wine stored in the Operations Department. He drank until he was half full and answered casually:
"Okay." Nanase Maki's slender legs straightened immediately, she stood up and waved her hand.

"Then it's decided."

"When the war is over, I will lead everyone on a school trip."

……

In the blink of an eye, it's the weekend.

As for the accident at the ceremony, the students in Class A felt that the impact of their own experience was actually not that great.

The three basic magics are already the limit of awakening. Even if there are no accidents, the results will not change.

But it is undeniable that some unlucky people who have only awakened a single basic magic will basically spend their lives as civilian-level magicians if they cannot pay the price to "self-destruct the magic crystal".

"What a beast. What kind of prince is this? Didn't anyone give him a name?"

"People who destroy the talent training of the fortress should go to hell."

"I don't understand how he can still stay in school."

At the gate of Magic High School, all thirty students from Class A were present on the military bus. Occasionally, they glanced strangely at someone in the last seat. The discussion about the ritual accident was a hot topic on the Internet. The magician's revered status meant that this was a national event.

Following the revelations from someone claiming to be an insider, a freshman nicknamed Prince has become the target of public criticism.

"How can this be!" Kamishiro Mirai stared at the communicator with an angry expression. Someone actually said that the prince should be punished and become a public toilet in the girls' dormitory as compensation, and even received a huge number of likes.

"Senior is not a casual person."

Kamishiro Mirai tilted her head nervously. She was afraid that the other party could not bear the pressure and would have to make up for his mistake according to the rhythm of the booing. Although she could still get a share of the pie in this way, it was too unfair.

Jiang He didn't react to this, but continued to comprehend the Holy Martial Ceremony in his hand. In the past few days, another dragon spear technique was raised to the epic level. The second layer of martial patterns wrapped around his arms and chest, occupying a quarter of his body.

At this moment, a reminder sound rang in his ears.

Main quest ② released.

Jiang He couldn't help but frown secretly.

This was the first time he participated in a hostage rescue mission. The value of the invitation to the Divine World was self-evident. First of all, he had to determine the status of the hostage. If the hostage died, it basically meant the mission had failed, and there were only two weeks and twelve hours left in the countdown.

"But before that, we need to hunt down Longchuan Zhengren first."

The information about the Colorless Monarch is also of great value.

Long!
The military bus started moving, and many students looked out the window expectantly. The opportunity to leave the fortress was very rare, and some magicians never stepped out of the towering wall in their entire lives.

Class A's original supervisor did not accompany them, so Nanase Maki obtained the leadership of the outing with the authority of the operations director, and Ginren followed as the driver.

"There should be thirty-two people, and there are thirty-two people."

"Everyone is here."

Nanase Maki stood beside the Silver Blade who was driving, and said loudly to the back: "This survival test requires you to survive outside the wall for two weeks. Each person needs to hunt at least one pureblood. Those who fail to meet the standard will be punished by repeating the grade."

Although Nanase Maki is only the temporary leader of Class A, she also shows a very responsible and strict side. These magicians in front of her will become the backbone of the fortress in the future. A considerable number of outstanding tactical-level students who graduate every year will come from Class A. She cannot afford to be careless.

"understand!"

Some shouted, some were embarrassed, and some were dismissive.

……

The military bus drove straight ahead, out of Bunkyo District and quickly headed toward one of the twelve front entrances to the fortress wall.

But when arriving at import and export security check, the bus was stopped.

Three hundred Fortress Corps soldiers surrounded the bus. Jiang He looked through the window at these guys armed with guns.

The full strength of each legion in the fortress is 10,000. Even the most basic private soldier is required to have magical powers. Only after awakening to become a magician will one be eligible for promotion to higher ranks.

Using magic as technology and angry beasts as materials, the Fortress is already able to mass-produce magic firearms. Not to mention the power, the anger factor contained in the magic firearms themselves is enough to make a strong person lose control due to anger when encountering intensive hits.

"No passing is allowed here. Please get off the car and cooperate with the inspection."

"No one is allowed to escape. Violators will be treated as criminals and shot on the spot."

In front of the bus, Yihui Xiumu, one of the four commanders of the Fortress Legion, came out personally to intercept it. Not far away, the former head of the Jumonji family was very old, but his eyes were flashing with hatred that went deep into his bones.

Taiko Trial Team, the light mirror appeared again, and the young man in the cowboy hat next to her had a formal smile on his face.

Faced with the cold muzzles of guns, the students had to leave their seats. As civilian-level magicians, they were powerless to fight against the elite soldiers who had experienced many battles.

"We have obtained all relevant permits for this outing." Nanase Maki got out of the car and said solemnly.

Yihui Kuomu smiled and said, "Ms. Nanase, you don't think that what happened a few days ago is over, do you?"

"Report, body fragments were found under the car, which may be clues to the murder of General Kawaki." A colonel suddenly shouted.

Nanase Maki's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly.

Ichigoku smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to your action. No, I almost forgot that Miss Nanase is a combat waste. Don't worry, let's follow the procedure this time."

"Everyone, arrest them!"

"Lock them all in the Wall Prison!"

"Magic bullets loaded, be careful there may be fortress rebels among this group."
