Investing for All: I Can See a Return on Investment

[After entering the fortress, Arthur and the others found a place to settle down. 】

[Afterwards, Arthur took a few people to the tavern to inquire about news. Others were also scattered throughout the fortress. 】

[When he first arrived at the tavern, Arthur found that the people here were a little lifeless, completely inconsistent with the lively style of most taverns. 】

[The owner of the tavern also has an indifferent expression...]

[At this time, Arthur thought about it carefully and found that except for the 'angry' at the gate, the entire interior of the fortress seemed relatively quiet. 】

[It's even said that it's terrifyingly quiet. 】

[According to the logic, Beiyuan Fortress is such an important place, before the end, there will be a lot of people, so it should be very lively, so it won't be as good-looking as it is now...]

[Arthur wanted to inquire about some news with other people in the tavern, but Arthur felt that most of the people in the tavern looked strange, so he held back his doubts for the time being. 】

[After leaving the tavern, Arthur carefully observed the crowd walking on the street, most of them remained silent. 】

【The atmosphere is getting weirder...】

[Walking on the street, I always feel that there are countless pairs of eyes staring at me in the dark. I squinted at the bat hanging upside down from the eaves on the right hand side, and it always felt weird. 】

【After Arthur returned to the hotel, he told everyone who went out to investigate the news to go back to the hotel. 】

[However, the 32 people who entered the city, when they assembled, there were only 25 people left. Seven people are missing...]

[Arthur didn't send anyone out to look for it, but chose to stand still. 】

[It seems that this time I came to Beiyuan Fortress, I still didn't think about it. I didn't expect that the current situation would appear in Beiyuan Fortress. 】

[Here, it should be controlled by evil things! 】

[Just don't know what kind of special ability the enemy has? 】

[Night, in the hotel. 】

[Arthur has been thinking about the strange places in Beiyuan Fortress, and can't sleep at all. 】

[Enemy, who is it? 】

[At this time, in the quiet night, a bat landed on the window, and the bat's eyes shone with a faint red light. 】

【Earl Arthur was in a daze for a while, and then began to organize his thoughts, but he always felt that he had forgotten something. 】

【What was I thinking just now? Why can't I remember? 】

[What did I forget? 】

【and many more! Why am I in Beiyuan Fortress, what am I doing here? 】

[Because of the end? 】

【By the way, this is the damned end...】

[No, no, what doomsday is there? I seem to have misremembered again...]

[Phew~ It’s been twenty years, and there has been no war in the entire empire, and the empire doesn’t seem to need me anymore. However, over the years, being an earl and managing his own territory is also quite good. 】

[Brilliant warrior-Arthur is named earl, and his territory is Black Rock City and the thirteen nearby cities...]

[Black Rock City...My lord king, I made a contribution to you, why did you treat me like this! My Arthur's loyalty, can't you see it! ? 】

【Before breaking the Demon Abyss, Arthur looked at the dark crack, and then resolutely walked in. For His Majesty the King, for the peace of the empire...]

【I, Arthur, swear allegiance to His Majesty the Fourth Prince! For the sword in your hand, remove all obstacles! 】

【Honey, go find your Mingjun...】

[No matter how cruel these memories are, Arthur's expression has never changed. 】

[But when he heard the word 'dear', Arthur unconsciously shed tears from the corner of his eyes. 】

[Suddenly, the Holy Light Unicorn pendant on Arthur's chest shone with golden light. Arthur regained his spirits, and the **** bats in the window were turned into ashes. 】

[Some seemingly suppressed memories became clearer. 】

【Looking at the bat that had just turned into ashes by the window, Arthur became more sober. 】

[It's a bat. Wait, bat? 】

[Why are there so many bats in Beiyuan Fortress? In the entire Ice Empire, only the southeast corner has a large number of bats. 】

【correct! 】

[One of the seven great bishops of the Demon God Sect symbolizes blood bats! 】

[Why did I only figure it out now? 】

[You Sea Blood Bat, Nether Octopus, Deep Sea Blue Scale People, Triangle Demon Shrimp Clan, Nine-Tailed Murloc Clan, Blue-eyed Sea Spider Clan, Blood Spirit Sea Lizard Clan. 】

[The forces of the Seven Great Demon God Sects who invaded the Ice Empire are also symbols of the Seven Great Bishops! 】

【Arthur got up immediately and went to the other people's room. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and killed a few bats that were controlling the team members. 】

[However, the movement of this hotel also attracted the attention of some existences in the city, and soon there was the sound of troop mobilization. 】

[With the strength of dozens of people including Arthur, it is obviously unstoppable. 】

[And the control of the Demon God Sect here is beyond Arthur's original plan. 】

[If most of the city residents here cannot be awakened, then they will be very dangerous this time. 】

[Soon, Arthur rushed out of the hotel and had a fierce battle with the soldiers who came. 】

【Fortunately, this group of people under control cannot display their combat effectiveness perfectly. 】

[The people brought by Arthur were stronger in themselves, easily broke out and approached the city wall. 】

[On the other side of the fortress, fierce fighting also broke out. 】

[Arthur hesitated for a while when he saw this, and then immediately changed direction, letting everyone move closer to the Dongcheng District where the fighting broke out. 】

[Dongcheng District, there are a group of fighters who are not under the control of bats! 】

【Soon, Arthur and others arrived here. 】

【Arthur recognized at a glance that the one who was fighting against the monster was the deputy commander of the Northern Legion! Also an earl. 】

【Originally, this person should not have appeared in Beiyuan Fortress, but now is not the time to think about it. 】

[The deputy army commander recognized Arthur at a glance, and he was a little excited! Then he immediately said to Earl Arthur: Earl Arthur, the controller behind these monsters, is in the lord's mansion in the center of the fortress! 】

【Hearing this, Arthur immediately led his men and changed direction. 】

【And Arthur, holding the golden long sword, is like a God of War. Each blow can kill dozens of monsters without hurting the person under control. 】

【After seeing this scene, the deputy legion commander was also secretly moved. It seems that the Glorious God of War has not lost the prestige of the past. 】

[Looking at the Lord's Mansion. 】

【"boom!"】

[The house of the Lord's Mansion suddenly collapsed, and three huge blood-colored bats rushed out of the Lord's Mansion. 】

[Then, countless blood-colored bats of different sizes poured out from the surrounding houses. 】

[In the air, there is also a faint human figure condensed. 】

[This 'person' is an important force of the blood bat line: blood soul apostle. 】

[Blood Soul Apostle: Good at manipulation methods, likes to slowly erode and corrupt hostile forces. 】

[The blood soul apostle in Beiyuan Fortress is obviously not low in strength, and he has a lot of blood bats in his swing. 】

[This group of monsters gathered together, and the combat power they exerted is still extremely powerful. 】

[The blood soul apostle stared at the golden long sword in Arthur's hand, his eyes serious. 】

【"You are Arthur?"】

【"Yes."】

【"Get out of here, I can let you go."】

[Arthur briefly glanced at the controlled crowd below, then shook his head, the meaning was very obvious. 】

【"Oh, I don't know good from bad. You can live to this day only because of the kindness of the bishops!"】
