Collectors of Beauty World

Chapter 150 The Burning Sun Competition
The job of cracking the shielding helmet wasn't very smooth.However, under Lu Xiao's toughness, they continued to advance steadily.

After about more than two hundred attacks.Shield Helmet finally responded again.

"We can talk. You can't go on like this."

"Why not. It's my trophy and I have the right to do whatever I want with it."

"But you're killing it."

"No, to be precise, I am killing you. I am a spellcaster, a spellcaster who has received complete training. I know the essence of this thing very well. It is an independent tool. And you are just a later addition. .Essentially, you and the helmet are not one, right?"

This time the old man was silent.What Lu Xiao said is actually right.It didn't originally belong in the helmet.This thing itself is a war weapon.The kind used to fight against the mage army.

However, those high-level spellcasters always like to tease their juniors.One of the owners applied this certification effect to the helmet.He turned the helmet into a family heritage.

And this family is the family of the little warlock Simon.Yes, this is also an important basis for Lu Xiao's determination that these guys are the protagonists.

They search for an artifact to defeat the Demon King.The artifact requires certification, and there happens to be one person in the team who meets the certification.Isn't this a typical treatment for a protagonist group?

".I can surrender to you."

"No, you won't."

"." This time the old man was completely speechless.It understands now too.Lu Xiao should have some way to detect whether it is sincere.Therefore, my verbal surrender is meaningless at all.

Of course he didn't want to surrender.Because once you surrender, you will never have any room to turn around.

But it is impossible to continue to hold on.Because over a long period of time, he has become one with the helmet.

There is no way to escape, no way to fight, and the only way to survive is to die.So, he finally surrendered.

This time he truly surrendered, and he was even prepared to be placed under various restrictions by Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao also received a prompt from the system at the same time.

Shield Helmet: S-class collectible.It contains forbidden magic rules and can cast forbidden magic shock waves to disintegrate all magic within a certain range.Can only be used once per day.

It can only be used once a day, which is a huge restriction.But this does not prevent this thing from being tyrannical.

However, the effect of this thing does not seem to be sustainable.In other words, if two people are dueling, using shielding shock wave can disintegrate the opponent's magic once.

But whether it is fireball or dimensional cutting, it can only be disintegrated once.After that, you still have to decide the winner based on your true ability.

This thing is not prepared for single combat by spellcasters at all.It is war equipment, used on the battlefield, or used to lift large barriers.

And now Lu Xiao just needs this effect.

After conquering the shielding helmet, the time for the Burning Sun Competition is gradually approaching.

This time, Adkin's intelligence and Harper's connections were effective again.They found a new route and sneaked into the city.

Because it is the Burning Sun Tournament that has been restarted after hundreds of years, Neverwinter City can be said to be very lively recently.

It wasn't just the crowds in the city who were excited.Various tourists and wealthy businessmen from surrounding major towns rushed to Neverwinter City, preparing to enjoy the restarted Blazing Sun Competition.

In fact, if it weren't for the Burning Sun Tournament being too bloody.Such large-scale events are very helpful in revitalizing the city's economy.

In just one month, the number of residents in the city doubled.There are also a large number of wealthy businessmen who have entered here with huge amounts of wealth.

It is said that there is a business cooperation with Lord Fletcher.Lu Xiao and others sneaked into the city through the carriages transported by these wealthy merchants.

He used magic to cover his aura.Make the barrier covering the city unable to detect itself.But as soon as you use magic, you will be exposed.Therefore, they need to determine their goals and then act simultaneously.

The plan is simple, the primary goal is to rescue the little girl controlled by Fletcher.The second step is for you to investigate what conspiracy the red-robed mage has.

Both the half-elf druids and barbarians in the team have a strong sense of justice.Although Adkin is glib, he is from the Harper Alliance and is the mortal enemy of the Red Witch.

After entering the city, Lu Xiao and others quickly started taking action.The little girl was trapped in the city lord's mansion.Therefore, Adkin and others were responsible for the rescue.

Two spellcasters, Lu Xiao and Simon, are responsible for investigating the plan of the red robe witch.

The two followed the motorcade of the wealthy merchants and entered the treasure house of Neverwinter City.Simon was blinded by the piles of gold and various jewelry on the spot.

But after Lu Xiao saw the gold, he frowned.

"Not right."

"Of course there's something wrong. That guy Fletcher is so rich. There's something so fucking wrong."

Simon started complaining on the spot.But that's not what Lu Xiao meant.

"This is not just Fletcher's wealth. It also belongs to the wealthy businessmen who come and go. And there is too little gold."

"Is that less?"

"It's just too little. We have been observing outside the city for more than ten days. At least thirty carts of various kinds of wealth have been transported into Neverwinter City. If there are no other treasure troves, the amount of wealth here should be at least five times more. Above. Where did the rest of the gold go?

Also, the gold transported should belong to different wealthy merchants.But look at the soldiers escorting them.They piled all the gold haphazardly together.How to distinguish whose money it is? "

".I am really a waste." This is a true portrayal of Simon's heart.

At this time, voices came from outside.The two hurriedly hid behind a pile of gold jewelry.Then a dozen soldiers walked in.

"There are still so many, when will we finish moving them?"

"Forget it. If I had so much gold to move around every day, I would be exhausted and willing to do it."

"Whatever you want is not your gold."

"Haha, at least there is a part of us. The Lord of the City has always been very generous. With so much gold, if we divide it casually among us, it will be enough for us to buy a manor and live the rest of our lives."

"That's right. Then work harder. Three more times and that's it."

A group of soldiers used boxes and bags to start packing gold and jewelry.Although Lu Xiao can easily defeat these people.But he didn't choose to take action and hid in the corner with Simon.Watch them fill up the gold and then carry it out.

The two then quietly followed the group.It was discovered that they took a secret passage all the way to the dock behind the City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, a large ship was docked at the pier.A group of soldiers laboriously moved the gold onto the ship.

"It's obvious now. Your Lord Fletcher is going to run away. This Burning Sun Competition is just a gimmick. He used the name of the Burning Sun Competition to attract a large number of wealthy businessmen to invest.

But secretly, he has embezzled everyone's money and is ready to run away.Let's talk about it. If it weren't for the different positions, I actually admire this guy.He should be the only one with any brains on your team.No wonder you were fooled by him again and again. "

Simon: "Fletcher is going to run away, but where is the red-robed witch?"

"This is not simple. The reason why Fletcher was so hasty in preparing to run away was because he knew what would happen here. This should be the agreement between him and the red-robed witch.

That spell to transform undead creatures requires as many people as possible.He brought enough people to the city.In exchange, the other party let him go.I have to say it again, Fletcher is a talent. "

".We need to stop them immediately."

"Now is not the time. Adekin hasn't sent a signal yet. If you use magic now, the witch will detect it. By then, the girl will be in danger. Of course, I don't really care, after all, I haven't even seen the child. "

"Okay, let's wait for Adkin's signal. However, they seem to have discovered us. What should we do now?"

The unscrupulous conversation between the two was heard by those relatively elite soldiers.At this time, a dozen soldiers had drawn their swords and surrounded them.

"There is really no other way. It seems that we can only sacrifice the girl. Prepare to use magic, Simon. There are more than a dozen people, which should not be a problem for you now."

"No, we can't do this. It will hurt Kira. We should think of other ways. As he said that, he picked up a wooden pipe and prepared to rush forward to fight."

"." Lu Xiao smiled and pulled Simon back.This guy looks like a chicken.Letting him fight in hand-to-hand combat with a group of armor-clad soldiers would simply lead him to death.

"Forget it, let me do it."

Lu Xiao was just trying out the character of Simon.The characteristics of the protagonist group of this team are becoming more and more obvious.Although it seems inconsistent, everyone has their own role and their own bottom line.More importantly, treat the other people on your team as family.

This family template is the standard protagonist group configuration.

Lu Xiao casually took the wooden stick in Simon's hand.He rushed towards a dozen soldiers.

He actually hasn't practiced swordsmanship much.

But how to put it, as a master, it seems to be standard to be able to fight in melee combat.He doesn't need much training at all.

With the body of a demigod, his physical fitness has completely overwhelmed these soldiers.Their heavy armor looked like egg shells to him.The sword he wields is like a three-year-old child wielding chopsticks.

After a 'fierce' battle.Lu Zhongrui knocked down all the soldiers.

"Okay, now the problem is temporarily solved. But time is running out. Someone will soon discover their disappearance. Before that, we must find the red robe witch and be ready to fight."

The mission of Lu Xiao and Simon is to stop the red robe witch at the critical moment.Now, it is basically determined that the other party should take advantage of the Burning Sun Competition to gather people and then use the large-scale Necromancer.

Therefore, where she is now should be.

The place Lu Xiao was referring to was the VIP area of ​​the Fierce Sun Competition.Located on a high tower, people on top can directly overlook the entire arena.The wealthy businessmen and nobles who came here were there to watch the game.

And above the VIP seats is a huge hot air balloon.There is also a portrait of Fletcher painted on it.

If you want to use a wide range of spells, this place should be the most suitable.

"We can't get there, there are too many soldiers."

We don't have to go up, she will come out on her own.Our most important issue now is how to evacuate the masses.

At this time, the Fierce Sun Competition has begun.The huge arena was already densely packed with countless spectators.A rough estimate is that there must be at least 5 people.

The center of the arena was transformed by magic into a huge moving maze.

There are a lot of mechanisms, monsters, and treasure chests placed in the maze.

The game is a team mode.Different teams are hostile to each other and travel through the maze at the same time.

While trying to find a way to eliminate the opponent, you have to avoid the attacks of those monsters.Of course, it's not like they don't have a chance to resist.

There are various treasure chests in the maze.After opening it, you can get weapons randomly.With weapons, contestants naturally have the ability to resist.

The design of the entire competition is actually very interesting.If he wasn't on the side of the protagonist group, Lu Xiao would have wanted to go to the stage to watch the game.

But for now, he is still focusing on how to evacuate the crowd.

Although he has no feelings for ordinary people in this world.But it's not like watching them all be enslaved by the Necromancer.The most important thing is that the battle between him and the red-robed witch is not over yet.

Although he was not defeated last time.But in fact, he took the initiative to withdraw.Because there is no guarantee of victory.Although he still has many trump cards.But the opponent's high-level magic such as time stasis did not take action.

Lu Xiao rarely encounters such an opponent who can match his own in terms of physical strength.The key is that although the opponent is a necromancer.But when they fought before, he found that the opponent was also a standard academic.

The connection between the various spells is very reasonable and smooth.And the spell has no obvious weaknesses across the board.These are characteristics only found in academies with complete inheritance.

Lu Xiao was actually looking forward to fighting with the opponent to the best of his ability.

And while the two were thinking.Lu Xiao saw from a distance that there seemed to be a commotion at the VIP table.At the same time, I also felt the magic power of the red-robed witch, spreading without any pretense.

Clearly, some kind of time has come.The other party has begun to make no secret of it.However, the bodyguards of those wealthy businessmen still seem to have a problem.Several of them brought caster bodyguards with them.It can actually last for several rounds.

At this time, the audience in the stands became more and more enthusiastic.Unless the sky falls, it is impossible to let everyone leave.

In most cases, people will not be persuaded. They are usually only threatened or bribed.

Lu Xiao looked at the hot air balloon in the sky, and then at the teleportation staff on Simon's waist.

Bribery might be an idea.
