Chapter 91 Different Thoughts
In the lobby on the first floor of the Lord's Manor, more than twenty awakened people gathered here.
They have different identities, different skills, and different duties and responsibilities in the town.
But one thing is consistent at this moment.
When the awakened people came to the hall, their expressions immediately became nervous when they saw the empty An Rui on his left shoulder.
The lord of the border town lost an arm!
Something big is definitely happening in the world of Montenegro!
At this moment, it was getting late.
An Rui, who was sitting at the main seat in the hall, looked at everyone's expressions but never spoke.
Out of respect and inner nervousness.
The awakened people only discussed quietly, and no one took the initiative to break the apparent silence.
The last person to arrive at the lord's manor in the north was the huntress living in the south of the town.
Seeing An Rui's condition and knowing the situation in advance, she sighed slightly and calmly accepted the reality in front of her.
"..."
At this time, An Rui glanced at the hall.
In addition to young people like Anna, Joel, and Lindsay, all the time-honored Awakeners in the town were already present.
He waved his hand and asked the guards to close the door.
After the door was closed and the air became completely quiet, An Rui announced to everyone:
"Everyone, you all know that I rushed to the Black Mountain world a few days ago."
"There, I was attacked by a monster. This arm Unfortunately, he was also destroyed in the battle."
As An Rui spoke, Song An, the town doctor, walked up.
The white-haired old man carefully inspected the healed wound on Anrui's arm. With only the fourth stage of his skills, he soon only had a regretful expression and a shaking head.
In front of the doctor, An Rui continued to speak:
"Here, I bring you some dangerous news. The dragon beast in Black Mountain is advancing!" For
a moment, the hall was eerily quiet.
Then there was an explosion:
"What?" "That dragon beast is really advancing?" "The eighth stage!"
The awakened ones in the hall suddenly became panicked.
The strongest among them was only An Rui, the fifth-stage warrior in front of him.
As a result, the dragon beast next door is about to advance to the eighth stage, which is almost a legendary stage!
As an awakened person in this mountain.
They are even more difficult to accept than ordinary people.
Faced with such news, someone quickly stood up and questioned the news Anrui had just released:
"When the town lost contact with the outside world ten years ago, didn't we send people to investigate? That thing had just been promoted to the third level. The seventh stage, that's why it suddenly appeared and stopped in Black Mountain. After so many decades, it is impossible for a Warcraft to advance again!"
An Rui didn't care about the refutations he received from others.
He just nodded and acknowledged the other party's thoughts, and then continued to tell the truth:
"Normally speaking, of course not." "
But that dragon beast did such a reckless behavior. It tried to merge with the source of the world. Forcibly increase your strength, and then promote your own advancement!" "
Even the snowfield on our hidden border is the phenomenon that spread from the Black Mountain world because of its reckless actions."
An Rui's explanation immediately triggered Lively discussion among the people.
"That's not necessarily a bad thing!"
a few minutes later.
A steady and powerful voice sounded from the crowd.
That was Yrel, Joel's teacher and the most experienced craftsman in town.
"Everyone also knows that once this reckless advancement method fails, the life of the dragon beast will immediately self-destruct, and the source material will feed back to the world that has been over-extracted by it." "By then, the biggest threat will be gone, and we will be able to sit back and relax
. You can even restore contact with the outside world."
What Yrel said was true.
Such an advancement that is eager for quick success cannot come without a price, otherwise wouldn't everyone act like a dragon beast?
But the female hunter stood up and rebelled against the old craftsman:
"What if it succeeds?"
"If we don't do anything now, we will just let this guy mess around. Once it succeeds, the aftermath of the influence of the source of matter will be enough to destroy us. This is frozen into a world of ice and snow!"
The huntress and the old craftsman were facing each other tit for tat.
At this time, Song An, the doctor who examined An Rui's wounds, came down and tried to calm the two of them:
"Dan, Yi Ruil, don't be anxious."
"Promoting from the seventh stage to the eighth stage is not that simple. !"
"Even if that evil beast can succeed, the whole process will probably take a lot of time."
At this point, the doctor turned his attention to An Rui.
The lord of the hidden border also nodded in approval of this idea:
"According to what I have observed, it will take at least six years and a maximum of ten years before the dragon beast can complete its advancement." "
Oh, ten years!" Someone in the crowd immediately began to laugh at themselves, "So, we are really safe here! We have been trapped here for more than ten years. How many more decades will we have in the future?" Someone immediately stood up and put forward their own ideas
:
"The Hidden Frontier is a dilapidated world, too small in area!" "Even if it is just the impact of the advancement process, it can bring a devastating blow. Do you think the crisis of temperature changes will be small!" The threat of the Black Mountain
world , completely intensified the emotions of the awakened people.
Soon someone stood up and cursed:
"What else can you do? You can't fight, you can't run, you can't run!" "Just
close your eyes here and wait to die?"
"..."
"There is still time for some things, no matter what we do Let’s take a look at what to do next.”
Just as the dispute among the crowd intensified.
Somkin, the owner of the grocery store, suddenly stood up.
This businessman, who was extremely short of goods and had almost no sense of presence, immediately turned his attention to Anrui after stopping everyone's increasingly tense debate:
"Anrui, you may not know what happened in the town these days during your absence. . We were attacked by a group of spider monsters not long ago, and the losses were considerable. The top priority is to survive this winter." "
You should have some opinions on this, right?"
An Rui replied calmly:
"Those spiders should also be dragon beasts. My subordinates, I fought against them in the Black Mountain world..."
An Rui hadn't finished his words yet.
Somkin grasped the key to his words, and then deduced:
"You have been in contact with those spiders!"
"So those spider monsters that destroyed farmland came up because you went down to the Black Mountain World?" "
..."
An Rui was silent.
Regardless of whether this sounds pleasant or not, what Somkin said is the truth.
The owner of the grocery store blinked and did not continue to investigate the issue.
But under the gaze of everyone.
He set his eyes on An Rui's empty left arm and stared at it quietly for a few seconds.
Somkin turned around, turned his back to Anrui, and faced the crowd and said,
"Everyone, I think it's time to take some action."
"Once the dragon beast is successfully advanced, we can only stay here for our own sake." Take death. Even if it's just for the sake of the young children in the town, we can't waste it like this!" "
Even if things are a bit dangerous, but..."
"Somkin, shut up!" An Rui suddenly interrupted the businessman. "You want to take everyone on an adventure and try to cross Montenegro? That's enough, this is just asking for death!"
Somkin closed his eyes slightly.
Then he turned around and met An Rui's angry gaze directly:
"That dragon beast is busy advancing!"
"This may be a rare opportunity. After all, its attention must be on its own advancement process. Yes, we can take advantage of this opportunity."
An Rui reiterated in an extremely serious tone:
"You are treating everyone's lives as child's play!"
"Somkin, I know you can't trade here and your skills have almost stagnated, but this is not You persuade others to sacrifice their lives in order to open a way for you to escape!"
Somkin was noncommittal about this.
He just expressed his opinion calmly:
"It's impossible to do nothing." "
Besides, I'm not the only one who wants to leave here very much."
"..."
The night was getting darker.
The atmosphere in the lord's manor became increasingly anxious.
But at the other end of the town, Lindsay, holding a torch, was facing the newly sprouted seeds in front of her with a hopeful look on her face.
The green seedlings contain endless vitality and are growing very gratifyingly.
After more than a month of trekking, Lindsay finally had time to fully immerse herself in the process of cultivating crops.
The possibility of resource-based skills is far from being explored to its limits.
Soil, water, fertilizer... so many aspects can be resourced.
Lindsay is in a positive mood now.
He felt that this winter should be the last time the hidden frontier would be short of food!
[I have lost my memory of what I wrote yesterday. ]
[Ah, thank you to the leader of the accumulating bacteria! 】
