Chapter 1211: end
In the guild hall, dozens of weary and frail travelers were resting.
They simply eat something, drink some water, sit or lie down, and take the time to recover.
There must be half an hour of weakness after resurrection, but if you take a good rest, even during the weak period, you can recover a little bit of combat power.
Although... they don't want to encounter a dangerous situation where they need to fight with such a body.
Among the crowd, some people looked at the guild crystal worriedly.
Every time a person is resurrected, the blue light of the guild crystal dims. Although the situation of one or two people is not obvious, after ten or twenty people, the dim light of the guild crystal has become clear, and anyone can see it.
"Is this... the power of the guild crystal is about to run out?" someone asked in a trembling voice.
"Maybe..." someone replied.
"How can this kind of thing be 'maybe'!" I didn't know who it was, and suddenly became furious, "You have to be responsible for what you say!"
"Ahem, at this time, it's time to recite a couple of poems..." Jiaoge, commonly known as "Professional Yang Gou", said with a dry laugh.
Having said that, he stopped. According to the usual practice, someone should criticize "prohibition of raising gou", but this time, no one took up the topic.
So he could only recite a poem in embarrassment, and then used water to cover up his embarrassment.
After a while, when Aaron's figure appeared in front of the guild crystal, the blue crystal's light was completely dim, and there was no more luster to be seen.
Everyone's faces became more and more ugly - without the resurrection of the guild crystal, what would happen to the remaining people who died in battle?
"Aaron, how's the situation ahead?" Gondor couldn't help asking.
Aaron coughed twice and replied, "It's okay, we've rushed to the heart of the Dragon of Doom."
Because the battle was going well, he smiled happily, but he saw that there was no smile on everyone's faces, on the contrary, they all looked worried.
"Why are you so worried?" he asked in confusion, "there are still more than a dozen people left. Even if they use self-destruction to open the way, it is enough to hit the heart of the Dragon of Doom—you may not know it yet, the Dragon of Doom The heart is actually a crystal, which looks a bit similar to our guild crystal..."
Just as he was talking, he was stunned for a moment, turned around, and looked at the guild crystal.
On the dim guild crystal, the blue light from before has completely disappeared.
"...What's going on? Why doesn't the guild crystal glow?" He asked in surprise, "Isn't it still glowing before?"
"Every time a person is resurrected, the light of the crystal dims." Gondor, who was resurrected first, sighed, "When you were resurrected just now, the last bit of light from the crystal also dissipated."
Aaron was speechless, stunned for a few seconds, and then hurriedly opened the chat channel.
[Cold Wind: Everyone, don't die! The guild crystal energy is exhausted! There may be no way to revive! 】
Because of his urgency, his face flushed red, and then he yelled at everyone: "Why didn't you notify us before!"
"We said it," said Eric, who was resurrected before him, "but you probably won't be able to see the chat channel there."
Aaron was stunned for a moment and looked at the chat channel. Sure enough, there was only the content of what these people near the guild hall said in the channel.
In the chat channel, you can see many similar prompts, all of which were sent by everyone before.
But he dared to use his head to guarantee that he had not seen even a single piece of this news on the way to the heart of the Dragon of Doom.
Eric explained: "The chat channel works by relying on the communication tower. Now that the communication tower has been destroyed, it is still effective, and it is already very great. It is unrealistic to force it to maintain a relatively long distance... ."
Aaron was silent for a few seconds and opened the private chat channel.
"Panda, don't die! The guild crystal has lost its light. If you die now, you may not be able to resurrect."
Surrounded by a large group of doomsday dragon minions, the panda, who was struggling to move forward, saw the news and was stunned for a moment, and immediately suffered several injuries.
He didn't even care about healing himself, and hurriedly shouted: "Everyone, be careful! Aaron sent me a message just now, saying that the guild crystal is not bright, and there may be no way to resurrect after death!"
"What?!" Everyone exclaimed.
Because of the shock, many people were injured. The worst one was the magic swordsman Aaliyah. She belonged to the agile character, with three points of defense and seven points of dodging. Under the siege, the original situation was in jeopardy. Now that she was distracted, she was suddenly attacked from behind by a monster. Several sharp bone spurs pierced through her body, and blood spurted out.
This is fatal injury.
But she didn't turn into a ray of light, but just fell down like this, fell softly to the ground, and was drowned by the monsters rushing up from all directions in a blink of an eye.
"My God!"
"Really...there is no way to be resurrected!"
"Depend on!"
Everyone in the commando panicked, and no one understood why this happened.
All right, why did the guild crystal run out of power?
"Why does the guild crystal run out of power? In the past so many years, everyone died so many times, and I didn't see any consumption!" In the castle hall, looking at the guild crystal that had lost its light, Aaron frowned. He shook his head, unable to figure it out.
"It may be... We were in the Western World before, and the entire castle helped collect magic power. Guild crystals can continuously obtain magic power. Even if someone dies and needs to be resurrected, compared to the speed of collecting magic power, it is not a problem." Eric said the conclusion that everyone discussed before, "But here, there is no source of magic power, and the accumulated magic power is used to fight the dragon of doom, and even the castle is destroyed... There are not many magic power reserves left. , so the guild crystal will 'power off'."
Aaron's eyes lit up: "So, as long as we add magic power to it, we can make it work again?"
"No, I tried it before." Eric shook his head, "It can't be added at all, it doesn't accept our magic."
Aaron's eyes dimmed, and he sat wearily beside the guild crystal, silent.
After a while, Gondor asked, "Do you think...is there any hope for them to come back?"
"No," Aaron replied calmly. "It's dead."
"There is no hope at all."
"No." Aaron closed his eyes and lay down to rest, "Stop talking nonsense, rest well. The guild crystals are useless, and we only have one life left. We are still surrounded by heavy siege... If we don't hurry to recover our strength, You're going to die here."
Gondor closed his mouth and said nothing.
Inside the castle hall, there is a terrible low pressure.
The same low pressure also permeated the commandos.
Because of the threat of death, everyone was suddenly full of flaws. In just one or two minutes, three or four people fell one after another.
"You can't go on like this!" Panda roared, slashing down two monsters with his sword, and rescued Sanyu who was almost attacked. "We must cheer up!"
"But what's the use of cheering up?" Sanyu asked back, "With so many monsters, we have no immortality and can't rush through."
"In our previous battle plan, didn't we plan to lose our immortality!" Panda roared, cut down a few more monsters, and rescued Long Biao, who was a little unresponsive, "Now it's nothing more than returning to our original state. What does it matter if you go into your plan!"
His roar was like madness, suppressing the roar of countless monsters.
"Didn't we set foot on this road when we were ready to die here? Weren't we ready to sacrifice! So what is there to fear? The big deal is death!"
In his roar, everyone's eyes gradually lit up.
"you're right!"
"That's right! The big deal is death!"
"I originally came with the determination to succeed if I fail! What are you afraid of!"
Long Biao reacted the most. He laughed and patted Panda on the shoulder: "Well said! We have worked so hard to get here, and we are about to succeed. How can we give up at this time!"
"Everyone, brothers, let me go first! Help you make a way! If you go back to Earth, remember to invite me to dinner!"
Saying that, he took a big step and rushed towards the crystal that was probably the heart of the Dragon of Doom.
Infinite rays of light emanated from his body, and even though the minions of the Dragon of Doom swarmed in, almost burying him in it, they couldn't hide the rays of light.
A few seconds later, the explosion sounded loudly, and I don't know how many minions of the Dragon of Doom were blown into pieces, and a large area in front of me suddenly opened up.
"Walk!"
"Come on!"
"Just die!"
The last commandos roared and charged furiously along the road that Long Biao blasted.
This time, they were no longer blocked by the minions of the Dragon of Doom. Whenever the battle situation became stalemate, someone rushed out, shouting, swearing and roaring, facing the siege of countless monsters, forcibly rushing to the front, and then self-destructed to open the way.
"It's the best curtain call for an actor. Welcome to my final performance!"
"Light of Sanguinius, immortal!"
"Don't think that those who play with shields can't attack!"
"Flame is power, explosion is art, see you in the next life, brothers!"
"If anyone comes back alive, help me take care of Xingzhao..."
"Traveling all over the world and seeing the scenery, I have no regrets in my life!"
With one explosion after another, the commandos gradually approached the crystal floating in the air.
Seeing that the distance was getting closer, the seed girl couldn't hold back, she jumped up, turned into a giant dragon in the air, and charged towards the gray-black crystal. But when she was about to rush in front of the crystal, a ray of light blasted down from the crystal and hit the top of her head.
The black dragon's head was suddenly broken, and sour blood surged.
"Damn... I'm actually going to die here!" The black dragon girl shouted unwillingly, "I'm still... underage!"
Before she finished speaking, several rays of light slammed down from the crystal one after another, smashing her body like a broken doll, and the blood spilled like rain.
However, the powerful vitality of the dragon was fully displayed at this moment. She shouted: "I won't... just die like this!" She even supported her broken body and rushed in front of the gray-black crystal, covering it with her body.
"Hey! Die!"
It exploded, and blood flew.
The gray-black crystal was not damaged by the self-explosion of the seed girl, but was blown to the point of losing its strength and fell to the ground, and the black gas surrounding it disappeared. .
The last members of the commando team, Panda, Sanyu, and Locke lit up and rushed over at the same time.
When Sanyu finally opened the way for everyone with self-destruction, Panda and Locke finally came to the crystal. Without hesitation, the two of them shot with all their strength and smashed into the solid crystal.
With a dull sound, almost invisible cracks appeared on the crystal.
At this moment, all the minions of the Dragon of Doom seemed to be mad, rushing towards the crystal. They even put down the enemy in front of them, even if they were killed by an attack from behind, without the slightest hesitation.
"Pandas and the others are going to succeed!" Inside and outside the castle hall, the rest of the traversers widened their eyes, all realizing what had happened.
On the battlefield outside, the angels, under the leadership of Michael and the other archangels, seized the opportunity and launched an all-out assault.
"The aliens are going to succeed! Attack! Attack! Attack! Don't give these monsters any chance!"
In front of the gray-black crystal, facing the countless mad monsters rushing in from all directions, Locke frowned and patted the panda on the shoulder: "I'll give it to you, I'll buy you some time."
As he said that, he jumped up and spread out his black wings behind his back, and his normally gentle expression became hideous and terrifying.
"Although I haven't used it all these years, but... now is the best chance!" He looked at the monsters rushing over, showing a vicious smile, "Let me taste the blood of the dragons and claws of the apocalypse. Bar!"
Countless black lines emanated from his body, shooting monsters one by one. Those monsters froze immediately, and although they struggled hard, it was difficult to break free. In this way, they are not only unable to attack, but also block the way of the monsters behind.
Blood was continuously drawn from these monsters and flowed into Locke's body. His face became darker and darker, and his expression became more and more sinister and vicious, his eyes gradually lost the light of humanity, and he became mad and evil.
After a while, he turned his head sharply, looked at the panda viciously, and laughed wickedly.
At this moment, with a crisp sound, the gray-black crystal finally couldn't hold up the panda's frantic attack and broke into several pieces.
All the doomsday dragon minions stopped at the same time, and their bodies were motionless, as if they had become statues.
Locke's expression also suddenly returned to its original appearance, but his face was so gray that it was almost inhuman. He was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly.
"Poisoned... I knew that blood-sucking would not end well..."
Saying that, he fell to the ground, lying next to the broken gray-black crystal.
Seeing Locke's fall, the panda finally recovered from the frantic attack just now. He looked around and saw silence. The previous **** battle seemed to have never happened.
"We... victorious?" he muttered to himself, his voice very low, as if he was afraid of disturbing the dragon of doom.
No answer.
He opened the private chat channel and contacted Aaron.
"Aaron, how are you guys doing?"
"Panda?! You're still alive! Great! Have you succeeded? I've seen the body of the Dragon of Doom turning to stone, and I'm about to retreat. Come out quickly, hurry up!"
Panda smiled and let out a long breath.
With this breath, blood continued to spurt out of his mouth, dyeing his armor and the ground in front of him red.
He wanted to take a step forward, but found that his legs were so weak that he couldn't even take a step. He wanted to use divine power to heal himself, but found that the power in his body had long since been completely exhausted, and he also found that there were many wounds of various sizes on his body, many of which were almost deadly.
Combined, these wounds can bleed to death.
He smiled wryly, and then laughed a lot of blood, and slumped on the ground, lying in a pool of his own blood.
(Going around for more than a hundred years, in the end, will I still end up like this?)
His eyes began to blur, and a faint voice spoke to him.
[You guys did a great job, better than I expected. I was already prepared to take action in person if you failed, and even the West Land World would be destroyed together... Haha, in short, you have done a great job and deserve applause! 】
The messy applause sounded, it seemed to belong to one person, but how could one person make so many noises?
(Who are you?)
[I'm the guy who sent you here, I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble. But it doesn't matter, the time of the earth and the western world is not synchronized, I can send you back again. Exactly the same time as it came here. 】
(Go back... can you send Locke, Sanyu, Long Biao and the others back?)
[Of course, they are only the body of this world that died, and the body on earth is fine... ah, oops, your body on earth will die too! Don't worry, it's still too late, I'll fix it for you. Although my power is not very useful on earth, at least it can be done to restore you from a fatal injury to a normal serious injury. 】
(thanks!)
[No thanks, I should be thanking you all. Are you going back to Earth? 】
(in a hurry?)
[It’s not that anxious either. In this state, it’s okay to chat for a while. When a person is dying, his thinking speed is very fast. 】
(Has anyone ever said that you can't speak?)
[I am an artist, an artist only needs to be responsible for being gentle and elegant, the skills of speaking and doing things, those are not my expertise. 】
(All of this...what the **** is going on?)
[Actually, it is very simple. Many years ago, Haotian God and the beast of the last calamity, PK, perished together, and the Eastern World was almost destroyed. I just happened to find out about it, and I did a favor - I think you all know that? 】
(You know, what else?)
[I want to find some more reliable people who can fight against the Dragon of Doom. They must be calm, not too persistent, not too greedy, and preferably not thinking about changing the world; they must be united and friendly, if not working together, at least not fighting the civil war; they must be brave, even if a little reckless All right... All in all, I finally found you and sent you here. 】
(What happened to the game called "New World"?)
[That game was made by the people I influenced the game company and borrowed their power. The future in the game is actually my deduction, and it may not necessarily match the reality... Of course, it is consistent in general. After all, everything changes, and the general trend will not change...]
(Castle, guild crystal, immortal body... what about those?)
[The castle is made of magic power, and it can only be regarded as an incidental. The guild crystal is actually the wreckage of the Haotian God. I condensed it into that shape, and it was actually inspired by the Dragon of Doom. The body of immortality is nothing but the remnant of the power of Haotian God. Later, when this power is exhausted with the dragon of doom, you have no body of immortality... It's not that I'm stingy, my strength is really not suitable to be sent to this world, will cause great damage...]
(No need to explain, I almost get it. Anyway, is it over?)
[Yes, it's over. You have worked hard. On behalf of all living beings in the Western World, on behalf of the survivors in the Eastern World, and on behalf of those who have passed away in the past reincarnation of this world, I would like to express my high respect to you. You deserve the title of "hero"! 】
(Heroes or something... don't need it. Send us back to Earth, it's time for us to go back after so many years away from home.)
[Of course, don’t worry, I have always been very reliable in my work. 】
(By the way, what will happen to the companions who are not dead?)
[Actually, I'm currently in contact with all of you at the same time. Some chose to go back, and some chose to stay. The funniest is a bald head, he said he would roll the dice to decide...]
(Haha! Old Bai is really a board game!)
[Then, I will take you home. You have worked so hard all these years. 】
(It's not hard, if you have similar tasks, please come to me.)
【Okay, bye. 】
(goodbye.)
Panda's eyes finally became completely dark, and his consciousness sank into a bottomless abyss, as if it was going to sink forever. But after a while, he suddenly felt the weight of his body again, and the pain in his chest and abdomen.
(what?)
He opened his eyes and saw a white ceiling, white curtains, white walls, and a nurse in a white uniform.
"Ah?" He asked in a puzzled tone, a little dazed.
"Mr. Shen is awake?!" The nurse was startled by this question and looked at him in surprise.
A few minutes later, his family rushed to the ward.
A few days later, two or three people walked into the ward together.
"Panda, you're finally awake! I thought that **** didn't believe what he said!" Walking at the forefront was the broken-mouthed Loma, who was much taller than another world, "What did you say 'guarantee he'll be okay'... ...It's all farts! You've been lying in the ICU for five or six days, and the doctor said you've shed a few people's blood! He also said that your brain has been deprived of oxygen for a long time, and may become a vegetative state... We have all discussed it , if you really become a vegetative person, he won't even want to ask us to go out to work in the future! We'll have to eat fried jellyfish!"
Only then did the panda regain his senses, barely raised his hand, and greeted them with a smile.
"Hi everyone. Am I the last to wake up?"
"It's indeed the last one." Sanyu replied, "Everyone else has come back - the flow of time is different on both sides, even if they didn't die in the battle, they lived there for hundreds of years, thousands of years and tens of thousands of years, or they went out. Order other fieldwork or something... Anyway, I finally got tired of it, everyone has come back, just waiting for you to wake up so that we can have a celebration."
"celebration?"
"That's right, we've 'crossed the earth' with a heroic character who is righteous and brave, and it can be regarded as a righteous name for our gamers. Isn't it worth celebrating?"
"Yeah, it's worth celebrating..."
"So you have to get well soon and leave the hospital early." Sanyu came over and wanted to pat him on the shoulder, but seeing his body wrapped in gauze, he didn't dare to do it, "By the way, look outside."
The panda was stunned for a moment, and looked out the window along the direction he pointed.
The sun is good, a little dazzling.
He squinted his eyes and waited until he got used to the sun before he saw the members of the Manchurian Earth, who were all in a mess, waving towards his ward...
