When Joshua frowned slightly and landed quietly on the top floor of the Lord's Mansion, the two figures who had been waiting here were slightly shocked, and then immediately stepped forward to greet him.
"Hotaru, Rin? What's wrong?"
Joshua was thinking about the situation of the world in need of help that Kallis described to him at this time. After seeing the weapons coming to meet him, he couldn't help but strangely let go of his arms and took the little one who had been struggling in his arms. The light was released, and the ball of light, which had been clamped by the soldier's iron-like arms, seemed to have escaped from the dead. It made a happy "dinging" sound, and then bounced in the air and disappeared, seeming to be going. Looking for trouble.
The two figures who came up were Yingying and Rin. After hearing Joshua's question, the two people looked at each other. Then Yingying scratched her head and said first: "The supper is ready, but it's still... There is one thing - Master, look at the letter that was just sent."
After speaking, the silver-haired girl with a puzzled face handed over a letter. Joshua reached out and took the ornately decorated envelope. At this time, Rin said, folding his arms: "I just received a message from someone from The messenger from the far south got this letter, but it also has the seal of the eastern coastal area on it, and it seems to have a strong power on it... Although the owner said that no matter what the letter is, we can open it first and wait until we get back, but It would be better for you to open this letter yourself."
Rin's words were literate, with a hint of displeasure. Joshua keenly noticed a trace of burning on the other person's fingers and cuffs... Obviously, he must have encountered something small when he opened the letter. trouble.
"I just told you that you should train hard. Look at how quickly No. 3's strength has improved recently. Even Bishop Artanis admits that even if he is fully prepared, he will not be able to defeat her."
Joshua shook his head, reached out and patted Rin's shoulder, and a gentle force of steel poured into the other person's body, repairing his small wounds. As he spoke, he concentrated his gaze and looked through the letter: "You have psychic bodies and a good foundation. If you practice hard, you may not be able to achieve the golden ultimate intention in a few years or more. If you can transform the spirit into If the research is thorough... Hey, is it written by the natural teacher and another unknown legendary strongman?"
With just one glance, Joshua was keenly aware that this small envelope actually contained the power of two legendary powerhouses. Although it was only a trace, it was enough to make anyone who tried to open the letter suffer a little pain.
The only thing that makes Joshua feel strange is why they want to send letters... Although the wounds of the war have not yet been healed in the Far South, magic communication devices should have become popular there. Letters, a primitive means of communication, have long been It should have been eliminated.
"Maybe it's to show solemnity?"
Joshua thought this way, and then he continued to see through the content of the letter.
"Okay, it was settled so quickly. It seems that Fina has been working hard during this time."
After a while, the soldier put down the letter thoughtfully, and then sighed: "It's amazing that I can withstand that kind of concentration of ancient dragon blood."
"Master, what is written in this letter?"
On the side, Yingying, who had originally planned to wait for Joshua to open the letter and sneak around behind him to read the contents, was a little depressed, because the soldier didn't open the envelope at all, but directly looked through the contents.
Although Rin acted unconcerned, she actually looked at the envelope in the warrior's hand with curious eyes.
"It's Hill and Fina's wedding."
Waving the envelope in his hand, Joshua explained succinctly: "Because Hill will officially inherit the status of his elders after the wedding and become the leader of a powerful elf tribe, so the natural mentor and the contemporary queen will serve him Host.”
The elven tribes are quite united. The large and small elven cities and villages in the Far Southern Forest are all spread out around the Mother Tree of Life in the Eternal Lake, and many tribes are also firmly united around the Elf King's Court. , the elves, whose population is extremely small compared to humans, know that if they do not unite, then they are destined to be completely assimilated by humans in the future, just like those grassland elves and half-elves who have almost been assimilated.
For the entire world, this is not a bad thing, but for a race, being assimilated is definitely not a good thing. In order to maintain the independence of its own culture and bloodline, the elves have worked very hard for thousands of years.
According to Joshua's understanding of elf culture, the elf queen or elf king is a role similar to the patriarch of a large family. Other tribes are members of the family. It is indeed their habit to host weddings and funerals for other important members.
"Invite me to participate... It's okay to go to the Far South to have a look, and it doesn't conflict with the time mentioned by Carlisle."
Joshua could see the meaning behind this letter. The nature teacher invited him to the far south. It was definitely not just for Hill's wedding. The elves definitely had something to discuss with this legendary strongman. That's why I sent such a formal invitation letter, and this matter must be something that cannot be explained clearly using communication equipment and must be communicated in person.
"Rin, go back and draft a reply for me, saying that I agree."
After Joshua made sure that there was no conflict in the schedule, he made a decision. He handed the depowered envelope back to Yingying's hand, then pondered for a while and said, "When the time comes, you will also go with me."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Hotaru and Rin who were cheering and showed a smile, but then the smile faded and Joshua fell into deep thought again.
"The world Kallis is talking about is not far from Mycroft's world."
At this time, the warrior was still recalling what Steel Python had told him not long ago about news about another world that needed help. There were many details in it that made him confused and he didn't know how to explain them.
According to what Kallis said, the world that entrusted him with the will of the world is not far from Mycroft's world. If you have to say it, it is probably only slightly further than the Sixth Abyss. It is completely in the stargazing world. Within the observation range of the observatory - however, during the hundreds of years of observation by the observatory, it has never discovered that living world.
Either it was not for the malfeasance of the staff at the stargazing station, or there was indeed something unusual about that world, otherwise this situation could not be explained.
Secondly, there is the identity of the enemy... Kallis is also very confused about this. It said that there does not seem to be the breath of chaos in that world, but civilization is indeed experiencing repeated regeneration and destruction, which is extremely unusual. It suggested that Joshua Go take a look for yourself and judge the specific situation, and the warrior has a positive opinion on this.
After all, after seeing the black mist, Joshua already knew that the enemy of civilization may not necessarily be chaos, but may also be order itself.
The last point is a vague reminder from Kallis.
"That world is very small... It is different from worlds like Mycroft and I, which have several continents and seas. It is only a little larger than a demiplane. It is a rare miniature world."
The words of the Steel Python began to become hazy at this time. This was a sign that the link was affected by the demonic tide and was about to be interrupted. It seemed to still be thinking about the words, and after a while it slowly said: "We will set off in about three months. , Joshua, you must make appropriate preparations..."
What preparation? The soldier thought about it for a long time but couldn't think of anything, and finally had to ignore it - no matter what preparations he made, they were all to destroy the enemy, and he just had to act as usual.
On the side, Firefly had already taken the lead in opening the letter handed back by Joshua. Rin, who was watching from the side, said with confusion: "I know about the natural teacher. He came to us last time and went to Ajax the Great." The eldest sister of Huoshan, right? But is the other Elf Queen actually a legendary powerhouse? How come we didn’t know about it before... "
"Ms. Gloria Nord must like that title of yours very much."
A big sister who is about seven or eight times his age... Joshua thought for a moment, then shook his head with a smile and said: "This is normal. Mycroft's world has a complete inheritance of extraordinary paths. The legends on the surface are just the most famous contemporary ones. Just a few of them."
"As a large clan of elves, it is impossible for them to have only one natural mentor. The leaders of their royal court in the past are all legends, but they are the lords of the royal court first, and the legendary powerhouses second. After they succeed to the throne, they generally do not have their turn. They went to the front lines and fought.”
Not only that, but the other major forces are also similar. Even the Northern Empire, in addition to the emperor on the surface, there is also a Jiyi-level mage who can advance at any time. In the eastern plains, in addition to Barbarossa of the White Tower, In addition to the sage Faina, the Qiyao Council, an ancient and silent organization, also has an unknown legendary strongman stationed there.
There are many powerful people at the Jiyi level in various royal courts in Xishan, but since most of them are reclusive rulers, no one knows whether there are legends among them. But even so, the contemporary holy sword users and mind masters William is also from Xishan, and the dwarf master craftsman can barely be considered stationed in the Xishan area. They all have their own successors, and they all have legendary potential.
Joshua knew that the reason why the strong people withered in the previous life, and the legendary strong ones did not appear one after another until the next generation, was mainly due to environmental problems. The environment in the previous life was harsh, and the impact of the great demon tide on the world was far greater than the impact it brought. Benefits, the abyss and the five-color dragon, as well as large and small cult forces have made everyone in Mycroft's world exhausted, but this life is different.
For example, in the Church of the Seven Gods, Eagle did not sacrifice himself to maintain the flames of the world. With the teachings of such a legendary strong man, the Church of the Seven Gods would not have fallen into the same situation where its successors were left without successors, and neither would Loranda. In order to continue the flame of the world, he took the initiative to open the door of the abyss.
"If you think about it carefully, Mycroft's world is really hidden. He is worthy of being the successor of the Glorious Era. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse..."
Probably doing the math in his mind, Joshua was slightly shocked because he could count more than a dozen legendary strong men on the surface alone. Counting the underground world and non-human races, there are more than a dozen people who can be counted in the future. Those who have become legends, but have not yet achieved it, will soon exceed thirty!
Thirty legends! Although almost half of them are future strong men, even the remaining half, if they work together, it will not be difficult to conquer the abyss... Just like the Sixth Abyss, a god-level abyss lord, plus five demons Your Majesty, this is already an extremely terrifying force. With the addition of the three Dragon Kings, it can be said to be unparalleled. But with such strength, if it is surrounded and suppressed by twice the number of legendary strong men, I am afraid that it will only be defeated in tears. Go deep into the multiverse... not to mention there are other gods.
Of course, Joshua also knew that the legendary powerhouses would never join forces so easily, and among Goliath's forces in the previous life, there were also many new demon kings, such as the Heart Eater whose name he had almost forgotten. It is one of them. One is ebbing and the other is ebbing. Mycroft's world is weakening and dividing itself due to internal fighting, but the enemy is constantly getting stronger. This is the real reason for the disaster in the first place.
However, Joshua believes that with the changes he has brought about, the number of legendary powerhouses in the future can only be more than before, and will never be less than in the previous life.
At the same time, the Nissie Snow Mountains were the headquarters of Winterfort Academy.
On a cliff in the snow-capped mountains, there was a black-haired dragon girl lying among the ice and snow, staring at the moon in the gaps in the clouds.
The silver-blue moonlight like a sarong fell and was refracted by the ice and snow of the snow-capped mountains, turning into magnificent halos. Lisa stared at the moonlight that was very different from her hometown, her eyes flickering, as if she was recalling the past.
"What, Lisa, are you homesick?"
In the spirit, the voice of the Balrog came. It noticed that Lisa's heart was not as calm as it seemed, so it asked aloud.
"It's nothing, Mr. Syndicate... I'm just a little lonely."
Sighing softly, the dragon girl ignored the severe coldness of the ice and snow around her and said quietly: "Although everyone in the academy is very kind to me, no one is willing to be my friend."
"I think it's not that I'm unwilling, but that I don't dare."
Syndicate objectively pointed out Lisa's problem: "Your strength is much stronger than those of your peers who are still in the training period. If you are not on the same level, how can they dare to be friends with you... Even if you have similar strength, you will be treated as such." You are a competitor, just like the other students of my lord."
"But you are a famous person on the forum. You have many admirers. Don't you plan to respond to one or two?"
"But the one who posts on the forum is Mr. Syndicate, right? You posted my photo without my permission!"
Hearing this, Lisa couldn't help but protested with a slightly red face: "I haven't learned how to post yet. Even if I make friends, they are your friends, sir, not mine!"
"Stupid." The Syndicate shook his head disdainfully: "A guy like you who looks at the moon alone on the top of a mountain will never be able to make friends in this life."
"Actually, it's not very important whether you have friends or not..." In response, Lisa replied with a smile: "It's enough for me to have Mr. Syndicate. I'm used to being lonely. I've always come here alone before. of."
After hearing these words, Enma, who was originally full of momentum, fell silent instantly. The dragon girl did not notice this, but continued to think about the future: "In a few days, I will go find Teacher Joshua. Most of your soul should have recovered, enough to be independent from my body... By then, we can be friends!"
"Idiot..."
Not knowing how to respond to the dragon girl's simple thoughts, the Syndicate could only respond with this simple word, and silence returned to the cliff.
However, just when the dragon girl was looking at the moon and running the electric current in her body until she was about to fall asleep, Lisa and Syndicate suddenly felt huge vibrations one after another at the same time.
"What's that sound?"
Standing up from the snowdrift neatly, Lisa opened her eyes wide and looked in the direction of the vibration, while Cyndia also used her vigilance to scan the surroundings to observe the source of the unusual sound.
"Zizzi..."
Then, they saw the huge steel shadow that appeared in the gorge with the obvious sound of electricity. The shadow seemed to be taking a walk. It spotted the dragon girl not far away and began to move towards the area where the other party was. near.
"Zizzi."
Recently, my schedule has been so chaotic that I don’t even know what day it is when I go to bed... I turned on my computer and found that the update had been interrupted for a day, and I was still confused as to what was going on...
