AWB Chapter 447: Beast Tide
Chapter 447: Beast Tide
"what's the situation!"
The two knights who were responsible for holding him up were startled.
Gray Dex is getting weird.
He looks quite miserable now.
There were signs of disfigurement on his face, and his chest was barely rising and falling, like a broken bellows, only taking in air but not letting it out.
It was even more bizarre at this moment. After the two knights' outstretched hands touched him, he seemed to be carbonized instantly, turning into black powder that floated in the air.
The black powder floated in the air and was blown away without a trace by the wind from the griffin's wings, as if nothing had happened.
His breathing also stopped completely, and his chest was motionless.
Is he dead?
Jefferson Allen noticed the situation here.
What does it mean?
Is this the method of the Black Death Cult?
To prevent its own members from leaking secrets?
She could feel that Gray Dex, who was lying there, had no breath of life left.
he died.
As for why his hands turned directly into black powder like carbon, it was probably some kind of special magic or curse.
It is not very realistic for the rest of us to take him away.
Jefferson turned his wrist and clapped his hands. A gust of wind emerged from there, and the whole body of Gray Dex, who was lying there, was blown away. Only a spine, a skull and a few ribs were left, which fell to the ground with a crash and broke directly like rotten wood.
"Forget it, forget about him, let's get out of here."
She gave such an order.
Time is urgent now and there is no time to care about so many things.
The noise caused by the monsters' riots is getting louder and louder. If it goes on any longer, it would be bad if it really turns into a beast tide.
Thinking this, she led the knights away from here and flew out of the foggy forest.
If a beast tide really occurs, I think they won't be able to stop it.
It would be better to find more foreign aid.
If you want to mobilize the army, it may not be realistic.
The primary duty of the troops stationed outside the royal capital is to protect the safety of the royal capital and to be directly loyal to the Royal Family of Ornn - to be precise, Ornn IV, her father.
It's somewhat unrealistic to transfer them here.
But it is not impossible to find other help.
Although the Fog-Locked Forest is dangerous, it is also rich in resources.
Many precious magic materials can be found here, as well as a variety of rare biomes.
These are not available anywhere else. Due to the foggy environment here, the special materials are quite difficult to obtain, so the prices outside are also very good.
If there is profit, there will be people, this is an iron rule.
Outside the foggy forest, there are many gathering places for adventurers.
Originally it was just a place suitable for rest, but as more and more people came here to hunt for treasure, it turned into a gathering place.
Go find those adventurers for help.
She made this decision.
Things went smoothly afterwards.
With her identity, she was able to gather the help of adventurers from the three surrounding adventurer gathering places.
"A beast tide! That's quite a big deal." said the old man with a white beard that reached down to his chest.
He is the most famous adventurer in the adventurer gathering place nearby. His strength has stepped into the epic level and reached the middle epic level. He is a representative among the adventurers.
His profession is wizard.
Nickname: "The Wise Old Man"
He stood next to Jefferson and squinted his eyes.
......
Some of them are not clear.
Wear a pair of reading glasses.
He took out a pair of reading glasses from his pocket and put them on.
Ah--
He blew on it first, then wiped it with his old robe, and then put it on his face.
"..."
The eldest princess cast a suspicious look.
Is this old man okay?
To be honest, she was also surprised when she first saw him.
At such an old age, are you still taking risks outside?
It is said that I have heard such a story.
His wife seemed to be cursed and needed a lot of money to maintain her life. In order to give his wife hope of survival, even at his old age, he still had to run around outside, dragging his old body in and out of dungeons.
Anyway, it's very touching.
only......
Can he do it?
He looks quite old and is said to have osteoporosis.
Jefferson wondered in his heart.
It was just based on the recommendations of the surrounding adventurers. He was the oldest and most experienced adventurer here, as well as the strongest. He was needed to judge the situation of the foggy forest over there and where to better stop the monsters.
He did not notice the eldest princess's suspicious look.
He looked towards the fog-shrouded forest over there.
The forest that was originally shrouded in fog now became much thinner, and was replaced by a thin fog above the entire forest, blocking the sun in the sky.
The sky became dark, and there was a whirlwind-like air flow that rolled up all the fog and sent it into the sky.
“It seems…” The [Sage Old Man] frowned, and the wrinkles on his face could kill a fly.
"It looks like there's going to be a beast tide..."
He said this uncertainly.
But it shouldn't be.
The beast king here, if I remember correctly...
"Isn't the regional beast king in this area of the Mist-Locked Forest the Mist Pig King?"
He asked this to the adventurer beside him who was wrapped in heavy armor.
"Really? Is Alzheimer's coming back? The Beast King here has never changed."
Unexpectedly, the voice coming from inside was a girl's, and she sounded very young.
"It has always been the [Mingzhao Mist Pig King]." She reminded him.
"Yes, I remember it all."
A small voice came from the shoulder of the armored girl. It was a tiny creature, was it a forest demon? Or something else? It seemed to be only a dozen centimeters tall.
"If it doesn't work, forget it. Alzheimer's disease will get worse if you don't pay attention to it, right?"
She said so.
Jefferson was more skeptical.
Is there also Alzheimer's?
"That's even more strange. According to the temper of the Mist Pig King, the possibility of a beast tide here is basically zero."
He tapped his forehead and felt a headache.
In fact, he also heard about it today.
Despite the climate and circumstances, almost no one would go into the forest, and there were royal knights catching criminals in the forest, so basically everyone was waiting outside.
However, many people still reported that they heard the roar of the [Mingzhao Mist Pig King].
But he only cried out once.
But now I can’t control that much.
Judging from the situation, a beast tide is almost certain to happen.
You have to prepare for the worst.
He told the eldest princess his guess.
"...That's probably the situation, Your Highness."
He said: "According to my guess, the beast tide will break out in about a day and a half."
"It is impossible to avoid the impact of the beast tide. My suggestion is to choose a good battlefield to fight against the monsters and prevent them from impacting the positions of ordinary people around and causing other casualties."
He said so.
"Is there no other way?"
Jefferson was not surprised by this answer.
However, it is somewhat difficult to stop the monsters.
Even if all the adventurers in the surrounding gathering places were called over, there would only be about 170 or so people. Although they were all professionals, the number was still not enough.
There is no favorable terrain around here. If a beast tide breaks out, their numbers will not be enough to form a long enough interception chain.
By then, there will definitely be monsters rushing out, and then something very bad may happen.
But the [Wise Old Man] seemed to see through her doubts.
"Your Highness, if you are worried about the battle front, there is no need to worry."
"To put it bluntly, the beast tide is a riot of wild beasts. It is a blind behavior of magical beasts that have lost their minds."
He said: "When the time comes, we just need to send someone to lead the leading monster to the main battlefield."
He looked confident.
"We have experience with this kind of thing, so don't worry."
