The lord is red again.

Chapter 542: Boss stolen by NPC

It took a lot of effort for Magdalena to finally divert her attention away from the new chariot.

She would never say that as a former "Princess" she really wanted to own a cool chariot.

How is that possible? She is not the kind of person who loves vanity.

The most important thing at the moment is to gain the favor of the Dragon King Black Phosphorus.

The operation on the continent of Enstad did not go as smoothly as Magdalena had guessed. Although there were indeed many undead here and the number was far beyond her imagination, they were also keen on things that she could not understand.

For example, a hang-up game.

Thanks to Lind Arman's generosity, this game is not only played by ordinary undead, but many local natives also play this game and get some entertainment from it.

They were not as interesting as the undead, and the word games without visible patterns were not very interesting.

On the contrary, chariot racing and the legends and stories circulated in different worlds attracted them more.

After staying here for a long time, the round-faced princess, who had been through a long period of hardship, had a vague impression that this place was like heaven, which even she found very scary.

"I promise this is my last time, and I'm not doing this for fun. I'm doing this to investigate this material plane. Haven't you noticed that this material plane has many gods? If we can destroy them, we can complete the dragon's commission and gain its favor. If we accidentally win the speed race, we can get a lot of rewards and use them to commission undead to work for us."

She was trying to persuade the giant wolf. She was trying to use the power of words to make the giant wolf understand how great her contribution was at this moment.

The giant wolf didn't say a word the whole time.

So, her persuasion succeeded.

Magdalena got on her mule cart again, pulled the reins familiarly, and waited for the signal to start the charge.

This is the longest map newly opened.

Starting from the Black Knight's underground tomb, you will pass through a barren area along the way, bypass a mountain range and finally reach the location of the [Great Shield].

Occasionally, you can see some gods along the way, such as the dark angels that often wander around, or the speeding chariots that come out from time to time to run a few laps with the undead.

Even some other gods would choose to turn a blind eye when faced with the increasingly rampant undead, and the random appearance of these figures added a lot of fun to this long racing journey.

Giant Wolf: “…”

The giant wolf didn't think Magdalena was telling the truth. The way she seemed to be enjoying it had nothing to do with the investigation.

But never mind, it's not important, right?

Let her have some fun before the Corruption King Grace sends any news. After all, she is not very old, but she has to bear responsibilities too early.

"3"

"2"

"1"

Game start!
A long journey across mountains and rivers.

Most of the time there will be no collisions with other competitors.

Although there is only one road, the speed, skills and various situations encountered along the way are very different.

It could be a sandstorm.

Or the tank may accidentally fall into a pit, or even directly encounter the enemy.

Although Magdalena, who wore the giant wolf badge, strictly followed the rules, the aura of the giant wolf still gave her a lot of advantages in the long journey, and she successfully won the first place.

Standing on the podium, Magdalena shook a huge bottle of champagne and shook it wildly under the envious gazes of the other undead. Then "bang" the cork burst and the champagne spilled.

The cheers around her made it difficult for her to hide her smile.

“I made a fortune!”

Magdalena couldn't suppress the smile on her face, and the corners of her mouth were almost pulled to her ears.

"We should get a new chariot," she suggested.

Giant Wolf: “…”

I knew it would be like this!
Fortunately, the King of Corruption Grace brought news.

After receiving the letter, the other party did not go to the War Throne, but directly tore through space based on the location of the giant wolf and came to the Enstad continent.

The moment it appeared, many gods within the range sensed its presence and cast their gazes on it.

Under normal circumstances, many gods or powerful beings would choose to use various methods such as projection or power infusion to allow others or substitutes to travel to different planes on their behalf.

Because it is difficult to guarantee whether you will be besieged after entering the place. It is never as easy and casual in other people's territory as in your own territory.

Unless you are as rampant as Lind.

What's more, Grace who appeared was not a god. She was a 6-ring strongman with power beyond that of ordinary gods. She would still die.

Soon no god cared about this matter anymore, because the Black Knight camp sent a message that she was one of them.

If you don't want to be attacked by the undead, just pretend you saw nothing.

"We have to complete the dragon's mission and gain its favor." As soon as Magdalena saw the King of Corruption Grace, she began to talk about her decision.

"It's not that easy, dear." Grace didn't nod directly, "We can't easily provoke disputes, especially in unfamiliar places. This will be seen as a provocation and may attract more enemies to attack."

When a strong person reaches a certain level, he will hardly fight desperately anymore. If he cannot win, he can just run away.

Having a permanent enemy that can't die can be a headache.

For their own benefit, everyone will refrain from offending others, unless they provoke others like the undead, making the gods unable to tolerate it.

"But Linde Armann doesn't want to see us, and we can't waste our time."

The giant wolf who had been silent the whole time: "..."

Perhaps no one understands better than you what a waste of time is, my Lord.

"He will, just as you promised him, if we give him what he wants."

"Misty Rain City?"

"It's the astrologer." The tone of the Corruption King Grace was very certain, "No one can refuse news from the future."

Facing Magdalena's eyes, which seemed to indicate she understood.

Grace continued, "If he wants Wuyu City, he can go and get it himself. He doesn't need your approval at all. You also know that nominal legitimacy is not important."

If they are all powerful and occupy the "orthodoxy", they will have the advantage.

But with such a huge gap between Linde and Magdalena, there is no objection to the so-called "orthodoxy".

"But we can do more, just like you said, to complete a dragon's commission."

No one can refuse the kindness of a dragon.

"You just said not to provoke those gods and powerful people easily."

"Yes, I did, so we should help those who have been confirmed to be working for Lind Arman."

"help?"

"help."

The relationship between the two is not as close as it appears, but they can only rely on each other now.

Just like Magdalena needs to rely on the power of the Corrupted King Grace, because her power is too weak, not even enough to support herself out of the land of beasts.

Grace also needs Magdalena. If she pledges allegiance directly to Lind Elmann, she will not receive any special treatment. Becoming a good general is definitely not what she wants.

She is a lord now, and she wants to continue to be a lord in the future. If Linde is really capable of taking back Wuyu City, perhaps she can obtain a territory that absolutely belongs to her in the land of wild beasts.

"Let's put those down and take a look around first?" Grace suggested.

"of course."

As the number of undead increased, the size of the town expanded again.

There were times when Magdalena wanted to admire the powerful infrastructure capabilities of Linde Arman and her undead men.

Just a few days ago the city's roads were not so wide that people could easily bump shoulders with each other as they walked down the street.

It's not an exaggeration.

And now this city is like another novice village, another war throne.

It was vast and huge, and its appearance changed overnight.

They were standing in an open-air area on a large square.

An oval.

Alleys are opened up one after another from the edge of the oval.

There are dozens of them.

The undead can go to different boxes and buy things, open shops, or hold certain events.

A popular game is enough to support tourism and consumption here.

In the center of the open-air square there is a building in the style of the Enstad continent. In front of the wild-looking galloping chariot are two nightmare horses, the left one lowered its head and the right one raised its hooves.

At the same time, the tall and mighty figure wearing armor was holding up his shield, as if resisting something.

They stood in the same row, and behind them, on a tall stone pillar with an even wilder shape, was the stone sculpture of Lind Arman.

The town is still bustling today.

The square and the streets extending out from the square have been filled with the shouts of vendors, a large number of whom are undead.

They will trade everything they can here.

everything!
The lively scene reminded Grace and Magdalena of the past, when the Misty Rain City also had bustling crowds and crowded markets. They couldn't suppress their longing for their hometown.

Although they said they were just strolling around, their attention was soon attracted by many things on the street.

The two had never had such close contact with the undead, and this was the first time they felt the emotional appeal they brought.

By the time they came to their senses, they had already bought enough things, and many of them were useless. The terrible undead are very good at using the power of language to create demand for things you don't need, and then sell them to you.

Grace tried to persuade Magdalena several times, but Magdalena didn't care at all and seemed to be completely immersed in it, giving up everything to enjoy it.

Walking north along the road, the things for sale ahead finally changed, and now there are some fruit and drink shops.

In front of us, a restaurant had its doors open and customers were coming in and out in an endless stream.

"I come to this restaurant often." Magdalena introduced, "Here we can chat privately without worrying about being disturbed. We can also enjoy some interesting performances or listen to others singing. But these are not the most important things. Their food tastes great."

She leads Grace into the restaurant.

They were guided to a table and sat down, and a waitress came over and served them various appetizers.

"These are all free." Magdalena was very excited when she talked about free.

Grace had a strange expression on her face. What had happened to make a princess who had never had to worry about food and drink turn into a miser who was always haggling over every penny just to earn "free" benefits in such a short period of time?

This is not a good sign.

Magdalena didn't notice anything unusual about Grace and she quickly ordered food.

The first thing served was a large bowl of dessert, made of candied fruit cake with sweet and sour jam.

Then came a big bowl of ice cream and a platter of various flavors.

Grace took a bite of her dessert and let out a contented sigh.

“It tastes really good.”

"Try this," Magdalena said.

“It’s delicious too!”

"This is heaven." Magdalena's words surprised Grace. What kind of special energy here could make people depraved?

Endless enjoyment?
However, Magdalena's next words turned all of Grace's questions into silence.

"Even the former Misty Rain City couldn't achieve this where everyone can live happily together and spend every day happily." Magdalena said, "Lindelman, I am more suitable to be the lord of Misty Rain City."

After finishing this bowl of dessert, Magdalena suddenly changed her state.

When she began to enjoy all this crazily, the giant wolf wanted to remind her several times, but in the end he held back.

Even Grace thought that Magdalena might have fallen into this world of pleasure and lost the desire to fight.

But Magdalena, whose expression suddenly changed, said, "Let's go."

"where to?"

“Complete more commissions and save Misty Rain City, at least make it as worry-free as this city.”

Grace finally understood that Magdalena was not trapped in the abyss called enjoyment. When she had the opportunity to enjoy herself to the fullest, she should put everything aside and enjoy it.

But when it is time to leave, she will turn around and leave without hesitation to work hard for her goals.

Because she knew that none of this belonged to her.

She has to work hard to truly gain all of this.

Grace looked at Magdalena several times on the way. She thought this was the first time she knew her and was willing to talk to her as if she were on the same level as herself, rather than as a pitiful little animal who had lost its home and could only come to her for help and shelter.

"What's wrong?" Magdalena turned to look at Grace.

"We need to act quickly. If it's just the suit you mentioned, it's easy."

"Yes, it's very simple."

It was difficult for Magdalena, but easy for the corrupt king Grace.

……

In a huge maze somewhere, huge spiral patterns on the walls were winding like ditches.

The horrifying aura and thick fog were like a huge invisible pressure hammer, hitting the heads of everyone present again and again.

Makes one's head buzz.

"The boss is already low on health!" Moon Blade shouted.

They have already paid too much to win this battle.

Although after entering the final stage, the boss will be extremely difficult to kill and the number of casualties will increase exponentially.

But as long as you succeed, you can complete the mission.

The boss named Labyrinth Snake is at the bottom of the 5 rings in terms of strength.

Whenever it enters a low health state, it releases mist. The thick mist stirs up the emotions in its heart, and the hearts of all the living people begin to beat wildly involuntarily.

"Illumination!"

"Light!"

The undead began to cast illumination spells.

Mottled white lights tried to cut through the darkness created by the maze serpent.

The strong fog blocked the connection of light. Everyone could only see within a range of about one or two meters around themselves. Beyond that was darkness, endless darkness.

The ground was covered with scales of the giant snake that had been knocked down by the continuous attacks.

Rumble and the ground began to shake.

The scales on the ground were jumping uncontrollably.

Zangetsu raised his left hand, sparks burst out from his fingertips and quickly twisted to form a rapidly spinning flaming arrow.

Because their vision is obstructed, the undead must activate higher perceptions, use their body's touch to feel the direction of air flow, and use their hearing, smell, etc. to lock onto the enemy's position.

The cold touch of the mist on their skin was not pleasant. They could feel that this place was like the real world because they had already opened their perception to the highest level they could bear.

"what!"

A sudden scream made all the undead present feel nervous.

It is hard to imagine what kind of pain the other person must have gone through to make such a sound.

Then one sound after another came.

With a slight flick of the wrist of the Moon-Chopping Blade, the flaming arrow pierced into the thick fog, making a clanging sound.

Hit.

Location determined.

"Action!" Zhan Man Dao increased his speed and rushed forward.

The other undead also gathered here according to his position.

After they tore through the thick fog, they saw a pair of blood-red eyes hidden in the darkness.

Streams of blood were entwining the body of the maze snake, and its huge body was crawling on the spiral-like grooves of the maze.

Being injured did not make him more ferocious, but instead made him more patient.

Like a patient and cunning hunter.

Unfortunately, the snake is already at the end of its strength.

Just one more wave of attack and we can take down the BOSS!

The undead were excited, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

"Ouch——!"

Suddenly a wolf howl came from behind.

A strong wind blew by, and the undead people subconsciously turned their heads to look, mistakenly thinking that there were still enemies but they didn't see the health bars.

Only a huge figure crossed the space and rushed in front of him in an instant.

That's a giant wolf!
The giant wolf rushed to the maze snake and bit the snake's head, then swung its head to drag it down and stepped on the snake's body with its claws.

The maze snake also began to fight back.

Its snake body, which was huge compared to the giant wolf, wrapped around the wolf's body, locked the wolf's throat and tried to strangle it to death.

But the gap in strength made this resistance meaningless.

"Crack!"

The giant wolf gnawed off the head of the labyrinth snake.

"Isn't this wolf from the side of the King of Corruption?" an undead man raised his question.

If there is no red name, it means you are one of us.

But the Boss was eaten to death by another NPC. What did they get after paying so much?

Can anyone tell me why.

"I hope I'm not too late."

A voice came from behind.

The giant wolf quickly turned around and left, coming to the side of the figure.

Magdalena.

She just smiled slightly, then rode on the giant wolf and turned away, leaving the undead people in confusion.

Until one of the undead belatedly realized and asked: "Did the NPC steal our heads?"

"Fuck me!"
