Chapter 851: Strengthening Nata
……
What happened next was that Mavica and Capitano discussed together how to deal with the serious problem of the abyss attack next.
After careful consideration, the two finally decided on a core strategy.
That is to resist the abyss at all costs, until the sixth hero appears, releases the power left by the Ruler of Death, and defeats the abyss.
However, if the situation really develops to an irreversible point and the sixth hero fails to show up, then Mavica will resolutely sacrifice herself.
She will use her body as material to burn the holy fire, sacrificing her life to repel the invasion of the abyss and buy precious time for Nata.
As for who will take over as the God of Fire after Mavica's sacrifice, this will be decided by Nata's tradition.
Rely on the "Holy Night Parade of Return to Fire" to prove the strength of a contestant and become the next God of Fire of Nata.
Just when Mavica had already decided on the plan to defend the abyss, Shao Yun suddenly interrupted and said, "Okay, I'll go change my clothes and be back soon."
Mavica was a little confused by Shao Yun's action and couldn't help asking, "Change clothes? What do you mean?"
Shao Yun smiled and nodded, explaining: "It means exactly what it says. I need to change my clothes."
……
The top of the Apocalypse Legendary Set is a dark, worn trench coat jacket covered in battle scars.
The jacket has frayed details on the collar and cuffs, adding a sense of age.
The lower body was matched with a pair of dark jeans, which also looked a bit worn, with the trouser legs slightly rolled up.
The hat on his head is a classic western style wide-brimmed hat (Big Valley hat), with a slightly rolled brim and a few feathers inserted on the brim.
In short, it's a battle-damaged windbreaker jacket, worn-in pants and a hat.
At first glance, I thought he was a beggar. However, after all, the name of the costume is Apocalypse Legend Suit, and it looks a bit worn, which is quite consistent with the meaning of "Apocalypse".
When Shao Yun changed into this Apocalypse Legend suit and returned to the office, his appearance stunned Mavica and Sitrali.
As for Capitano, he didn't seem to care much about Shao Yun's clothes. After all, in his eyes, no matter what Shao Yun wore, it would not change his essence.
Xitrali looked at Shao Yun carefully and didn't know how to comment on him.
How can I put it... This outfit is really ugly! It's even uglier than the previous red coat with black and white vertical striped pants.
She suddenly felt that Shao Yun looked quite pleasing to the eye with a beard.
He looks like a beggar now. How can Shao Yun's fashion sense be so bad?
Although Mavica also felt a little strange about the tattered clothes Shao Yun was wearing, she did not express it directly like Xitlari did.
After all, everyone has their own preferences and style, and they can wear whatever they like.
Even though the clothes are a little torn, as long as they are clean and have no odor, that's fine...
As for Capitano, I don't care...
"This……"
Xitlari looked at Shao Yun's clothes with suspicion on her face and complained without any concealment.
"Why do I feel like this set of clothes of yours was taken from a dead person in a cemetery?"
Shao Yun didn't care. He opened his arms, showing his Apocalypse Legend suit, and said confidently:
"This is a powerful weapon against the abyss!"
"Don't be fooled by the tattered appearance of this suit. It is actually very powerful!"
However, Xitlalli obviously didn't buy into Shao Yun's words... No matter how much she trusted Shao Yun, could she fight the abyss with just a pair of tattered clothes?
Are you crazy or am I crazy?
"What? Do you still expect to scare all the monsters in the abyss to death with this clothes?" Xitrali looked at Shao Yun's "beggar clothes" awkwardly.
After hearing what Xitlal said, Shao Yun didn't know how to explain to her the power of this suit.
Should I explain the meaning of "The Legend of Apocalypse" or say something else...
"Maybe..." Shao Yun said perfunctorily, then quickly changed the subject, looked at Mavica, and asked, "Now, do you have any mission?"
When Mavica saw Shao Yun's eager look and prepared to do something big, she quickly said:
"It's already dark outside, you should go to bed and get a good night's sleep."
"During the next period of time, you may not even have a chance to rest."
When Shao Yun heard Mavica asking him to go to bed, he felt a little reluctant.
"Believe me, I can fight without sleep..."
After Shao Yun finished speaking, Mavica took a deep breath and ordered in a helpless tone:
"I now order you to rest immediately and get enough rest! There are still a lot of tasks waiting for you to deal with tomorrow."
Faced with Mavica's firm order, Shao Yun had no choice but to obey.
"Okay, I'll listen to you then."
"However, if you find four strange-looking horses in Nata, remember to notify me and I will take care of it."
When Mavica heard Shao Yun suddenly mention four kinds of "strange-looking horses", she frowned and asked:
"Four strange-looking horses? What does that mean?"
Upon seeing this, Shao Yun quickly scratched his chin, thinking about how to explain it to Mavica while organizing his words.
"It means, for example, a horse on fire... or something like that..."
"This 'strange' looking horse will bring plague, war, famine and death. Only I can handle it. If you handle it without authorization, you may sacrifice it in vain."
Mavica looked confused, and although she was a little confused about the term "horse on fire", she agreed readily.
"Although I don't quite understand what you mean," Mavica said frankly, "but if I find anything, I will definitely inform you as soon as possible."
Seeing that there was nothing else that needed his help, Shao Yun planned to leave immediately and said, "Okay, that's all. I'll leave first."
However, just as Shao Yun was about to leave, Mavica suddenly called him.
"Wait a moment, Mr. Shao Yun..."
Shao Yun stopped, turned around, looked at Mavica in confusion, and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"
Mavica took a deep breath, worried that Shao Yun would not take her words seriously.
"You must have a good rest, Mr. Shao Yun. After tomorrow, you may not have much time to rest..."
Shao Yun nodded, indicating that he understood.
"I see. Thank you for your concern, Miss Mavica." Shao Yun responded, "I will make sure to rest."
……
After leaving the meeting place, Shao Yun did not go directly back to the House of Burnout in the Holy Fire Arena.
Although he had no intention of going out into the wild to clear out the abyss monsters without sleep, for tomorrow's battle, he felt it necessary to get some information from Abyss so that he could better deal with it.
When Shao Yun just stepped out of the holy fire protection range of the Holy Fire Arena, before he took the initiative to contact Yuan Shang, Yuan Shang's anxious voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Hey, Shao Yun, can you hear me?"
Shao Yun quickly looked around and confirmed that no one else noticed him before he calmly replied, "I can hear you. What's the matter?"
Yuan Shang's voice was obviously a little excited, even a little incoherent, he said: "You will never imagine what I saw in the Kingdom of Night God!"
Shao Yun couldn't help but be amused by Yuan Shang's excited tone, and teased: "Oh? Really? Then what did you see? Could it be that gold is falling from the sky in the Kingdom of Night God?"
When Yuan Shang heard Shao Yun say that gold was falling from the sky in the Kingdom of Night God, he almost choked on his own saliva. How exciting was this! What use was gold to the Abyss Cult?
After recovering from his shock, Yuanshang quickly explained: "No, your memory has been read by the Abyss entrenched in the Kingdom of Night God."
"Those dark purple 'potted plants' are beginning to transform into the people in your memories."
"Even from a distance, I could feel that those guys were terrifyingly strong."
"That bastard Fengshen kidnapped the prince's blood relatives and asked you to help Nata. This is simply adding to Nata's strength. It's counterproductive!"
When Shao Yun heard this, the Abyss read his memory from the earth veins and transformed into an enemy. He said with some surprise:
"What? Don't tell me Ying, Paimon and my daughter are in there."
Yuan Shang shook his head and said comfortingly: "That's not the case, but you still need to be careful."
"Those 'guys' are dressed similarly to you, and some of them are holding 'guns'. They are definitely not good people..."
When Shao Yun heard that the enemies transformed by the Abyss were all holding guns, his heart tightened and he asked cautiously, "What? Do you know what they look like?"
The uncertain voice of Yuan Shang came, saying: "When I observed it, the distance was too far, and I couldn't see clearly what it was."
"But I swear on my cooking skills that those 'potted plants' are definitely not good creatures!"
Seeing that there was not much information about the special enemy transformed by the Abyss, Shao Yun simply stopped asking and instead asked about the matter that he had instructed Yuan Shang this afternoon to detect the movements of the Abyss.
"Okay, let's not talk about those mysterious guys for now, let's talk about the invasion of the Abyss first. Are there any new developments?"
Yuanshang was well prepared for this question and quickly answered: "Yes, based on my observations of the Abyss invasion, their purpose at this stage should be..."
Yuan Shang paused for a moment, as if he was sorting out the information in his mind, and then continued:
"Attack the messenger and cut off the connection between the various tribes of Nata."
"Then, I also found the 'special network' that the 'Abyss' used to send commands. If you need me to implant fake commands, just tell me."
Shao Yun nodded to himself, and then said: "Okay, I understand. By the way, did you find any strange horses?"
When Yuan Shang heard Shao Yun asking him about a creature called "horse", he was surprised and asked, "Horse? What does that mean?"
Shao Yun explained in detail: "I mean it literally. Did you find any strange horses?"
"Like, 'horse on fire' or some other unusual situation."
Yuan Shang replied in a negative tone: "No, dragons are quite common in Nata..."
"As for the creature 'horse', they were the most numerous in Mondstadt about ten years ago."
When Shao Yun heard that Yuan Shang did not see the Four Riders of Apocalypse and had no relevant information, he stopped asking questions.
He paused for a moment, then said, "Okay, if there is any new situation, let's keep in touch..."
"Oh, by the way, have you found the three little leaf dragons?"
Shao Yun suddenly remembered what happened this afternoon. Yuan Shang was originally going to help the two children of Xuanmu Man find the lost baby Niye Dragon.
When Yuanshang heard that Shao Yun was still thinking about his original job, he was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes.
The leader’s relative is so nice. He cares so much about his subordinate.
As expected, if we are not from the same family, the value of not entering the same door is still rising...
Yuan Shang said excitedly: "Found it! The three little leaf dragons ran to the mountain, but they were afraid of heights and didn't dare to come down. In the end, I had to send them back."
When Shao Yun heard that the Niyelong, which climbed up and down every day, was afraid of heights, he muttered in a low voice: "Niyelong is afraid of heights? This really opened my eyes..."
"But if you think about it carefully, this is quite normal. After all, they are all baby dragons, and they haven't grown up to be brave yet..."
……
After ending the call with Yuan Shang, Shao Yun was about to turn around and return to the Holy Fire Arena to rest, when suddenly, a prompt message popped up on the system.
[During the Abyss Invasion of Nata, the Undead Horse will become your primary mount. 】
Shao Yun looked at the prompt that popped up in the system and felt very confused. How did this undead horse escape from the Kingdom of the God of Night?
"Undead horse, how did this thing get out of the Kingdom of Night God?"
The system gave an explanation.
[Because of the invasion of the Abyss, this horse rushed out through the Abyss Gate. Also, are you sure you want to let an ordinary horse go with you into the Abyss Power Pollution Zone? ]
Shao Yun thought about it and realized that his Andalusian horse "Luo Bo", Hungarian mixed horse "Boadicea" and Missouri fox-trotter "Belloq" were just ordinary horses...
Then I will ride a dead horse myself... I just hope the appearance of the dead horse won't scare the ordinary people in Nata...
"Okay...by the way, what does Yuan Shang mean when he says that the Abyss has read my memory?" Shao Yun continued to ask the system.
The system thought about it and gave a detailed explanation.
[It is literally what it says. The Abyss has indeed read your memory, and you will meet the "person" you know who was transformed by the "Deep Leaf". ]
Shao Yun looked at the explanation given by the system and frowned slightly, still not quite understanding it.
"You mean, I'll meet the people in 'my' memories?"
The system responded immediately.
[Yes, you will encounter the 'good' and 'evil' that are transformed by the abyss. The 'good' will break through the nature of the abyss to help you, but the 'evil' will bring you great trouble. ]
Shao Yun looked at the words "good" and "evil" that popped up on the system. He understood what the system meant and nodded, saying, "I understand. Now, what do I need to do?"
The system's answer was concise and clear, consisting of only eight words.
【Have a good rest and wait for tomorrow...】
