Chapter 572 The guardians line up to welcome the God of War!

Chapter 572 The guardians line up to welcome the God of War!

The noisy procession continued to advance, approaching the rebuilt cathedral in the center of the holy city.

In the Cang Qiangwei team that was pushed to the front of the team, except for the captain Lagis, everyone else had a worried look on their faces, wishing they could knock the captain out and take him away.

Because they saw the people on both sides of the street, and the looks they gave them conveyed only two meanings.

One look is like looking at an idiot, and the other look is like looking at... a dead person.

"quiet!"

Just as the team was about to advance to the front of the cathedral, a voice sounded from the front.

In an instant, the whole street became quiet.

It wasn't that the adventurers were very disciplined, but there was an extremely powerful spiritual command that prevented them from speaking.

The same was true for the Blue Rose Team in front. They sensed that there was a powerful magical force restricting their speech. Even the strong ones in the hero field could only open their mouths with difficulty and were unable to speak smoothly for a while.

The only one who can speak normally is Ibiruai, a vampire with a combat level of over 50 and the power to destroy a country.

But she couldn't speak at this moment because she was stunned by what she saw.

She looked up and saw the man standing at the side of the cathedral. He had obvious demonic features and was well-dressed like a gentleman. At just one glance, she felt his unfathomable strength, which was more powerful than she could understand. The demon god from two hundred years ago was probably just a baby-like plaything in front of this man.

In her opinion, it is not an exaggeration to call such a powerful existence a true god, but she knows clearly that the God of War of the Church is not a demon. At least on the surface, he looks like a human being.

If such a powerful being is not a God of War, then how powerful would a real God of War be?
At this time, the huge group of adventurers fell into panic because they could not speak, and they pushed each other in the chaos.

People are always frightened by forces beyond their understanding, especially those behind who cannot see clearly what is happening in front and feel confused and worried just because they suddenly cannot speak.

The Blue Rose team stood in the front row. The excitement in the captain Lagis' heart had mostly disappeared at the sound of "Silence". She raised her head with difficulty, looked at Demiurge, then turned back to look at Ibirue, her eyes seemed to be asking something, but Ibirue just shook her head with a heavy look.

Just as the crowd was becoming increasingly chaotic and the Blue Rose team was becoming increasingly anxious, they saw figures walking out from both sides of the cathedral at the end of the long street.

Walking out from the left were Zelfia and the six guardians of the Sky Castle, including the pandaren who were later resurrected by Lu Li through the Impure World Reincarnation. Walking out from the right were Albedo, Shalltear, Mare, Aura, Sebastian, and Cocytus.

They walked in an orderly and unhurried manner, with their heads held high and their chests puffed out, standing on both sides of the road in a dignified manner. The team on the right, led by Albedo, met up with Demiurge, and there were exactly seven guardians on each side.

The Guardians of Nazarick and the Guardians of Sky Castle were on both sides, led by their respective Guardian Chiefs. They stood at the back closest to the cathedral, with dignified postures and serious expressions.

"Hey...what...what are these..."

Lagis from the hero realm was barely able to speak. Looking at the monster-like strong men who walked out one after another with a powerful aura that she could not understand, she stammered and asked the country-destroying loli Ibiruai.

"Don't... don't ask me, this... I don't know. I don't know about this kind of thing."

Ibiruai also widened his eyes, looking at the lineup in front of him in disbelief, which seemed to be something out of a myth.

They were clearly in the human world, but it seemed as if they had come to the temple of the gods, with powerful gods standing there, as if awaiting the arrival of the King of Gods.

At this time, the Steel-level adventurers were frightened into silence, but the explorers in the rear behaved better.

Because they found that apart from being temporarily unable to speak, they were not attacked, and their strength was not enough, so they could not understand the terrifying nature of the guardians.

Just as Ibiruai was looking at these powerful people whose strength was beyond her comprehension and feeling terrified, she saw another shocking scene.

I saw a man in black clothes and a black knife walking out of the main entrance of the cathedral. The abundant afternoon sunlight shone on his body but was absorbed by the deep black, making the temperature of the air a little colder.

As if he had slaughtered too many powerful men, he had a natural murderous aura that made ordinary people tremble subconsciously when they saw him.

The man's steps were neither fast nor slow, but each step was on people's hearts.

When he reached the line of Guardians, they all knelt on one knee from front to back, starting with Albedo and Zylfia, performing an elegant and respectful gesture.

This scene left Cang Qiangwei and several Elite Steel-level adventurers in the crowd dumbfounded. They couldn't believe that such powerful monsters would be so respectful in welcoming a human-looking creature.

When Lu Li walked to the end of the queue, he raised his hand slightly.

The guardians understood and all stood up, changing their formation again, starting with Zelfia and Albedo. They gathered on Lu Li's left and right, forming a wide-angle cone to protect Lu Li.

As if she could read her master's mind, Zefia's beautiful eyes swept across the adventurers present. Her powerful strength, as well as the mental power of a hundred-level illusionist, made the foreheads of the steel-level adventurers sweat continuously.

"Our master thinks you have not shown a willingness to listen."

Zefia's voice was not charming in this situation, but cold and serious, which frightened the adventurers on the street.

Then, Demiurge understood, stepped out of the team, and stepped forward, "Bow down."

The power of magic made all the adventurers present kneel down. Even the steel-level adventurers felt the pressure of a mountain and had to bend their legs to make close contact with the ground.

It was only because they were so strong that they could support their bodies with their hands and did not have to bow their heads to the ground. They could barely raise their heads and see the true face of the God of War in front of them.

The same was true for Ibiruai in the Blue Rose. She was not crushed by the power of the Word Spirit, but she also knelt down because she inexplicably did not dare to be the first to stand out at this time.

After all the adventurers prostrated themselves on the ground, Zefia turned to look at Lu Li, "Supreme Martial God, they are ready to listen respectfully."

Lu Li then raised his eyelids slightly and finally began to examine these adventurers who had marched to the Holy City in protest, "Where are the representatives?"

There was silence for dozens of seconds, with no response.

Zephia was more clever. She stepped forward and said, "The Supreme Martial God requires the representatives to step out for dialogue."

As she said this, she glanced at Demiurge.

Demiurge understood, "Those in front are allowed to speak and move."

After he lifted some of the suppression in front, Team Cang Qiangwei felt much better. However, even though the physical restrictions were gone, the mental pressure was immense.

Lagis has already regretted accepting the commission from the guild president. She now finds that meeting the God of War is not an interesting thing at all, and being forced here by a large group is not a heroic deed worth spreading.

When she was sweating profusely due to the huge pressure, it was her good friend Ibiruai who came out to help her out. The cloaked loli of the Destroying Nation stepped out. After all, she was a mature figure of two hundred years, and her temperament was not comparable to that of a young girl. She tried her best to calm herself down and spoke respectfully after choosing her words: "Supreme Martial God, please forgive our recklessness. The Blue Rose Squad had no intention of offending you. It was just that on the way to the Holy City to meet you, we accidentally mixed with the large army."

"Oh?"

Lu Li looked at Ibiruai. He had some impression of this vampire loli. She was considered strong among the natives. Except for the Church and the Council of Nations, she could basically walk sideways in this world.

"God of War, please listen to my explanation..."

When Ibiruai heard Lu Li's bland answer, he knew something was wrong and continued, "We are just not sure whether the decree to cancel the Adventurer's Guild was a false oracle or it really came from you."

"Did you make such a big fuss just to confirm this?"

Lu Li asked back, but he didn't wait for the adventurers to answer. He just grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

Hundreds of explorers who happened to look up and saw this scene fainted on the spot.

This made Lu Li a little puzzled. He just came out for fun, how come he got some fear points inexplicably? What if he accidentally cleared the level? No, he had to be gentle.

Thinking of this, he adjusted his facial expression, facing the many adventurers with a smile that he thought was broad and friendly, and signaled Demiurge to release some of the suppression, so that the adventurers were only pressed to the ground and could look up and look forward.

As a result, more than 300 adventurers fell.

[Fear value score +1]

The intensive sound of fear value score notifications kept ringing in Lu Li's ears, making him feel very troubled.

In order to avoid accidentally reaching 10,000 points, Lu Li thought it would be better not to play for too long, so he said, "The order to abolish the Adventurer's Guild was indeed from me. What do you think? Does anyone have any objection?"

After hearing Lu Li's words, Ibiruai shook his head like a rattle, and the explorers behind him followed suit and shook their heads.

"If you have any opinions, you can raise them. I am a very open-minded person."

Lu Li said with a smile, trying his best to act like a magnanimous ruler to avoid being accused of being ruled by fear. "And I asked for welfare benefits for adventurers who changed careers in the new decree. Aren't you touched?"

"Don't dare to move..."

Lagis spoke subconsciously, then realized that she had said the wrong thing, "No, no, no, I'm touched, I'm touched!"

At this point, she had already abandoned her moral integrity as a descendant of the Thirteen Heroes because she felt the unfriendly gazes of those guardians. She was not afraid of death personally, but she was afraid that her companions would be slaughtered by the monsters.

Lu Li nodded in satisfaction after hearing this. "Since you have no objection, then that's fine. I was a little nervous and thought you were here to protest. It turned out to be a misunderstanding."

The adventurers below were all silent, and no one dared to "clarify" this "misunderstanding"

After seeing the hopeless and horrifying difference in combat power and realizing the true power of the gods, the adventurers no longer had any passion for freedom in their hearts and only wanted to return to their own countries and find a job as soon as possible.

"Yes...it's a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding."

Ibiruai said with sweat all over his forehead.

"Since it's a misunderstanding, then it's the guest."

Lu Li grinned and beckoned to the back, "Shalltear, treat your people well."

Shalltear lifted the hem of her skirt and bowed gracefully before stepping out of the procession. "Don't worry, Master Martial God. I will entertain them well."

"No...no, we know we are wrong, God of War, this is all a misunderstanding."

Ibiruai sensed something and her face was filled with horror. When Shalltear approached, she suddenly realized that the person standing in front of her was also a vampire, and a true ancestor!

However, Lu Li did not respond. He just yawned lazily and turned back to the cathedral.

Just now, he received a message from the prop of Orangutan Fire, saying that the other party had persuaded all the explorers of the ancient space to sign a contract with him.

The adventurers' parade of resistance was just a farce, but Lu Li would not be so magnanimous as to just put on a show and call it a day, as that would make the government's order seem to have no authority at all.

Therefore, no matter what the reason was for Cang Qiangwei to blend in with the main group and become the leader, they must be punished.

…………

"Brother Qiumo, please upgrade quickly and don't run into me again."

After signing the contract with Lu Li, Orangutan Fire said with a bitter face.

He never wanted to meet Lu Li again. No matter whether it was the world battle or the mission world, he hoped that the name of the Prisoner would only appear in the group and not enter his life.

It was so fucking abnormal that it almost shattered his faith in Taoism.

After this battle, he began to doubt his qualifications as a judge and what kind of monsters the pioneers were.

"Don't worry, we'll be regular customers next time we see you."

Lu Li patted the broad arm of Ape Fire and said with a grin, "I'll give you a 20% discount."

"Just don't break my bones..."

Orangutan Fire complained that he didn't expect Lu Li to give him a discount, and it would be best if he didn't encounter that.

This time, in order to preserve the vitality of the ancient space, he spent money, effort, and heart, but in the end, there are still a bunch of idiots who don't appreciate it.

If he hadn't been smart enough to offer a world-class item to Lu Li while he was angry, there would have been no way to negotiate peace.

After that battle, he lobbied in the ancient space camp for two weeks, and five or six people died. Finally, the explorers of the ancient space became scared and decided to surrender and pay money to buy their lives.

There are currently 35 surviving explorers in the ancient space, each with two inheritance crystals. That's 70 crystals in total.

Lu Li now experienced the pleasure of collecting protection fees again. The invasion contract was signed, and all that was left for him to do was to go sightseeing in the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
