Chapter 1149 Episode 9 Serial (2)
Zhou Ning smiled knowingly. He hadn't thought much of it before, but now he saw that he was a bit of a human trafficker. Walrus Dick, a relatively shrewd child of the plane in the original story, was stunned by his own trickery.
There is another plot here. The walrus Dick returned to the walrus base and discussed with his people whether to join the Star Church. The answer was naturally an agreement without any suspense.
However, Zhou Ning noticed that the temperature around the walrus settlement seemed very low. There was also a statue of the ice and snow goddess in the camp, which carried a strong divine aura.
This is a sign that the gods are about to return.
Then the camera completely locked onto Zhou Ning, indicating that the main film had officially begun.
The journey continued with the melodious ocean tune. There was actually a plot where Zhou Ning used the power of wishing to save the city of Suoxi, but it was only briefly glossed over by the computer's editing.
With several sharp shot transitions, under the shock of the golden domineering aura, the pig Schenk who was trying to escape from prison, and the animals who were besieging the ship or trying to take a ride on it all lost control of their bodies and suddenly fainted on the ground. The scene was extremely spectacular.
The last shot freezes on a huge sea dragon that is about to rise from the bottom of the sea, but is shot down by Wayne Stewell using a special red and black weapon, and dies peacefully.
The following plot has a faster pace, and many of the boring parts in the middle were directly edited out. When the screen lights up again, the journey has reached the end and arrived in Dulles.
The plot in Dulles remains concise and clear. Through the lens of the computer, players finally understand that the knowledge transfer brought about by the animals is a conspiracy between the Parliament of Knowledge and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom. Furthermore, the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, seeking his own return, collaborates with Ikkiel, the god of death, and Mackinto, the god of the sea, to launch a war and destroy the Sea Kingdom of Revendreth, causing mass death.
And it seems that the God of War also tacitly approves this.
Next, the background music gradually became tense. In the plot, Wayne Stewell accepted the alliance request from the royal family of Revendreth. Here, the computer specifically used a chronological method to list the alliance conditions of both parties:
"On September 1453, 9, the Pope of the Church of the Starry Sky, the Angel of Wish-Giving Wayne Stewell, signed an alliance on behalf of the Church of the Starry Sky and the royal family of Revendreth. The Church of the Starry Sky would help Revendreth win the war, but the price was that the entire kingdom of Revendreth would convert to the Church of the Starry Sky. Clearly, this was a choice made by fate."
What surprised Zhou Ning a little was that in order to make the rhythm of the series smoother, the editing of the optical computer discarded a lot of side plots this time, even skipping over his ambush by the thunder god Maleses and the pirate god Bert Atlaide.
This battle was Zhou Ning's first time fighting a god relying solely on his own strength. The clip only captured Zhou Ning leveraging the power of the Divine Kingdom and the stars to project the Sword God's might into the astral realm. Then, he unleashed a powerful sword strike, "Instantly, a vision arose, floodwaters met with purple lightning," stirring up massive waves and a purple sword energy as thick as a mountain. He instantly killed the Pirate God and frightened away the God of Thunder.
Even Zhou Ning himself was impressed by this strike; in terms of attack power alone, he was the best swordsman. Zhou Ning had already shown off this scene to players, but many players kept skipping back and forth to see it more often.
Through a series of camera transitions, players witness the transfer of knowledge across the city, with numerous animals acquiring human knowledge and becoming masters. Roosters learn to dance and sing, sleeping in human beds; once-loyal dogs sit at the dinner table and even take their owners for walks. Meanwhile, the Curse Cult's High Priest, the angelic lich Dorothea, the Four Kings of the Northern Pirates, the Six Great Pirate Generals, and even the Northern Pirate Emperor Valentine have infiltrated Dulles City, ready to wage war.
Especially when seeing that the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, the God of Death and the God of the Sea had prepared the vessels for the descent of God, ready to descend at any time to ambush Wayne Stewell, even though the ending was known in advance, the players were still extremely immersed in the story, as if they were watching a fantasy movie that was both weird and gorgeous.
At this moment, accompanied by the sudden and extremely passionate orchestral music, the plot reached a small climax, the scene suddenly changed, and the chosen ones appeared. Under the powerful appeal of Wayne Stewell, the players came to Dulles City through various means and channels and completed the assembly.
The barrage here suddenly increased.
"So exciting! The players finally stood up!"
"I looked at it many times and finally found myself. The one who said "Where there is virtue, there must be a corpse" is me, the Invincible Druid!"
"Brother, I know you. You're an undercover agent sent by the Elf Goddess, right?"
"Shout with me, for Boss Wayne, for the starry sky!"
……
At this moment, the optical computer thoughtfully displayed a marked map, floating in the lower left corner of the screen. It was covered with countless densely packed red and green dots of varying sizes, representing the enemy's location. Large red dots represented enemies above the demigod level, while smaller red dots represented minor soldiers. The countless red dots belatedly reminded the players of the sheer difficulty of this battle.
And how powerful they are now.
The screen split in two, with one half focused on Wayne Stewell, who was instantly dispatching groups of cultists and heading northwest. The numerous red dots in that direction on the map quickly vanished.
The other half was dominated by players, who were unstoppable in their efforts to annihilate hordes of Northern Pirates. Five of the heroes who opened the gates particularly caught the players' attention.
The original title of door-opening hero was just an honorary title, but this time they really shouldered the responsibilities that a hero should have. The editing of the light computer here was undoubtedly perfect, showing the scene of players going forward one after another, fighting against the Northern Pirates regardless of life and death from various angles.
XB, in particular, bravely embraces death in various ways. Later, when his death limit reaches the limit for experience deduction, he simply lets loose, charging into the crowd of Northern Pirates with a bomb and performing a shaving move, then exploding himself. The gorgeous dance moves make the scene even more tragic and majestic. The rousing and tragic background music is truly heartbreaking.
It's a pity that the bomb is a prop that can cause accidental injuries, and it is a special bomb they bought from Goodwin. After the alchemical bonus, the damage is very high. He didn't kill many enemies, but instead killed several waves of teammates.
No wonder XB’s teammates later clamored to build a pavilion for him to commemorate his heroic deeds - the Military Law Pavilion.
"Holy crap, I always thought XB was an expert at playing the clown, but it turns out he's actually a clown?"
"Just a joke: XB used to be a professional player."
"Woo woo woo, mommy loves you, XB baby."
Looking at the layers of mockery in the barrage, XB's face flushed red, and he couldn't help but defend himself:
"What's wrong with dying a few more times? What if I get old and can't keep up with the controls? People can't get old, right? Besides, no matter how many times I die, isn't I the first one that Boss Wayne thinks of when he's exploring the way?"
Many comments were choked up. Although it was a bit shameless, what he said did make sense. Many people didn't understand why Wayne always liked to assign him. Is favorability really that useful?
……
Next, players saw Zhou Ning rushing all the way to the northwest of the city, which was completely shrouded in a turquoise mist. Deep in the mist, there was a pair of double doors that were also stained turquoise and black, looming.
Here, the optical computer thoughtfully lists the markings for this bronze door:
Quasi-artifact: Gate to the Underworld.
Passing through the bronze gate, players see a large number of ghosts and rotting spirits flying around, pouring out madly. At the door is a lich marked as the chief priest of the Curse God, who looks very impressive. Next to him is a familiar character:
Archibald of the Four Heroes.
