Chapter 302: Monsters Besieging Cities and the Devil Emerges
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
While Su Tianji and the others played small games and grew vegetables in Qzone with an idle attitude, the number of players of the Legend of Mir 2 continued to grow. After the establishment of the Heaven-Defying Online Games Guild, the big forces also established their respective guilds, such as the Royal Clan Guild and Black Demon Guild, etc.
The maps that they fought over spanned from the Corpse King Hall to Wilma Temple. Right now, the members from different guilds had arrived at Zuma Temple, the only holy temple for the Orcs that remained on the continent.
However, posters that appeared in all the major cities disturbed their plans.
[Wilma’s crisis has come. The evil forces hidden in different places of the continent have been released by a mysterious force, and large troops of monsters are marching toward Biqi Royal City, Viper Valley, and Earth City in the Mengchong province. They are approaching the humans’ last resting places! Heroes of Wilma, pick up your weapons and defend our homeland!]
[If the troops of monsters take the big cities and kill the King of Biqi, the Wilma Continent will sink under the curses of the evil force!]
[Adventurers! Pick up your weapons and assist us! Fight and protect our world!]
Today, this announcement was the newest topic in the two shops.
“The monsters will be laying siege to the cities?”
“Did you see the announcement on the bulletin boards in the cities?”
“I did. Will the monsters attack us?’
The Wilma Clan Master who hadn’t been able to walk out of the godly palace will come out of it!
The Zuma Clan Master who had been sleeping in the Zuma Temple will lead its followers to attack the human world.
The many mutant worms in the dark underground of Death Valley will swarm up under the leadership of the Evil Centipede!
Many horrifying monsters will wake up in the darkness!
“Second Royal Brother, did you see the announcement in Earth City?” Fifth Prince Ji Yang had gotten online, and he was baffled. “What’s happening?”
“Who has gathered the troops of monsters?” The Second Prince said curiously, “I don’t understand the situation. Is there a powerful force hiding behind all this?”
“What on earth is this?!” Captain Yu Chi cussed in a fury, “A big counterattack of the evil forces?”
It seemed like the Orc Empire’s army of one million soldiers was coming back to redeem their honor.
– In the Half City Shop –
“Who knows what will happen after the cities are taken by monsters?” Black Demon was also confused.
“Taken by monsters...” Tang Yuan of the Yuanheng Pavilion said while eating instant noodles, “If nothing else, the stores and guards in the cities will vanish if the monsters take the cities. When we travel back with Town Portal Scrolls, we probably will return to the gathering places of the monsters. Without fortification and supplies, I’m afraid it will be difficult to level up!”
“How can such a thing happen?!” Xi Chenzhou said in a deep voice, “From the looks of it, we are being forced to fight to the death, right?”
Black Demon looked nonplussed. “Getting me, Black Demon, to protect the world?? What a joke! From the looks of it, I have to fight to the death?”
Tang Yuan said, “I share your feelings... but we’re doing it for our own benefits too...”
“Let’s talk about it tonight!” Xi Chenzhou said, “We must save some time and use it when defending the city.”
The Zuma Temple that was outside Earth City was a popular training spot where many forces battled for, but there weren’t many people here today.
“So soon?”
“Is it tonight?!”
Today, the number of concurrent players was clearly higher than usual, and some players who only played in their teams to get experience points, such as Su Tianji, had also become more active.
[Your friend, Yuji Immortal, is online.]
“Ugh?” Mr. Fang who was killing archers outside the Zuma Temple was surprised and sent her a message on QQ. [How come you’re online so early?]
[They said that monsters are going to attack the cities, so I came here to have a look.] Su Tianji controlled her wizard character which had just reached level 31. [What’s this invasion of cities? Are you going?]
[Of course!] Fang Qi thought about it and replied. [Go with some low-level items and store the valuable ones in your warehouse.]
[Why is that?]
...
While Fang Qi and Su Tianji chatted about the monsters besieging the cities in the game, something was happening in the Nanhua Faction.
Nanhua Forbidden Place was a wasteland full of steles with engraved inscriptions.
There was a cliff that was as smooth as a mirror, as if it had been cut by a sharp weapon. The black steles were engraved with many blood-red characters, and the withered yellow weed surrounded them, giving the place a lifeless look.
No one knew why the Nanhua Faction, a place that was as warm and pleasant as spring all year round, had such a weird place in it.
The black steles closer to the center were dozens of meters tall and as reflective as a mirror. At a closer look, the darkness in the stele looked so deep that it could swallow people!
The characters engraved on them were ancient and weathered. The weird characters looked like symbols, and it seemed like they were swimming on the steles like tadpoles.
All the steles stood together as if they were in a huge array. In the center of the array, there was a spot where all the withered weed had turned into black ashes, and a white-haired woman wearing white clothes was sitting there cross-legged.
She looked like a statue made of rotten wood, emitting a decayed and profound aura.
The characters on the steles seemed to brighten a bit.
Suddenly, the inscriptions lit up!
The entire land seemed to shake strangely, but the cultivators stationed outside of the valley sensed nothing!
Streaks of black mist oozed out from the underground one after another, and they gathered in the air and condensed into vague human faces.
The woman opened her eyes abruptly, and her decayed look instantly disappeared at this moment. In its place was a horrifying presence which kept surging. She chanted incantations at a fast speed, and spiritual energy rushed up violently, creating tornadoes!
Meanwhile, the black mist-like energy got more intense, and it seemed like murmurs resonated in the sky as if they came from a devil, luring ignorant mortals to fall into the dark abyss of Hell!
“Give up!”
“Release me!”
“You can’t suppress me!”
“I will give you more! Much more than what they can ever give you!”
“Your power is weakening, but I’m getting stronger!”
“Open your mind and accept my power!”
“...”
In the endless murmurs, a clear and lengthy chanting sounded, and the sky dimmed and then brightened. A dazzling golden light shot down from the high sky, and the darkness found no hiding place on this land.
The murmurs stopped at the same time!
The woman heaved a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the guards stationed outside of the valley had obviously sensed the strangeness in this place, and two teams of cultivators strode in. “What happened?”
“It’s fine.” The woman looked fatigued. She was about to sit down, but her expression suddenly changed.
In the chilly winds, the people who had just entered the valley found that the path behind them had vanished!
The land wriggled as if it had turned alive, and the disciples who had just entered the valley were swallowed by the squirming land!
“Such fresh blood and flesh!”
The woman looked horrified since the whole valley was sealed as if it was inside a huge blood-red cocoon!
“Impossible!” The woman screamed in horror.
“Your heart is summoning me!”
“You belong to me...”
“Are you dissatisfied?”
“Are you bitter?”
“With your talent, do you really want to stay here to die alone?”
“No... No!”
Half an hour later, the white-haired woman’s eyes suddenly revealed a weird red light in them. The decayed aura turned vibrant, and her aged skin turned rosy and smooth swiftly. She licked her blood-red lips, and her cold look turned bright and seductive, like a blooming deathly flower!
“Go and take more lives. The whole world will be our slave!”
