Reborn as a beautiful girl, I want to be the best in the world

Although Gabriel rarely speaks in the game, the feedback from the armor on his body is the best clue.

"Yes, this thing is the sacrificial altar for communicating with the Demon King. The vines around it are used to transport nutrients to the Demon King's egg. We now have two choices."

Ye Qing simply thrust the sword into the ground, and began to take out various props from his package and placed them in front of everyone.

"First, we use this altar to summon the demon king in advance and defeat him. Second, we destroy all the vines on the surface to delay his awakening as much as possible."

In fact, looking at the still bright red vines around him, Ye Qing felt somewhat doubtful.

According to Wenmier, the demon king in the imperial capital should have awakened.

But if Asmund has awakened, why does he still rely on such low-level means on the surface to supply himself with nutrients, and has not yet directly attacked the imperial capital?

Logically, something seems to be wrong, but if I only analyze it based on the current clues, I may not have collected enough clues.

“Are there any advantages and disadvantages to both?”

Angel also looked around vigilantly. As a priest, her passive skill naturally made her feel a little uncomfortable. Although the degree was far less than that of Zhao Manying, it was still a reminder.

Even when facing the bosses in the underground palace before, she had never felt this way.

"For the first one, we have to be prepared to face the Demon King directly. Although it's not a complete Demon King, it will definitely be more difficult than the time in Astra."

At this point, Ye Qing remembered that Angel had not participated in the crusade against Beelzebub before, so he briefly explained the situation to her.

Knowing that Ye Qing had defeated the Demon King when he was still in the Novice Village, Anjie was quite surprised even though it was an incomplete version that had been weakened many times.

So even if Ye Qing said the next second that she was the BOSS, Anjie probably wouldn't be surprised.

"The second one shouldn't be a safety issue. We can just withdraw after the bombing. However, we probably won't be able to obtain anything valuable from this expedition."

After hearing what Ye Qing said, everyone present couldn't help but lean towards the first option.

I am not afraid of encountering difficult enemies, I am just afraid of getting nothing.

"As usual, it's decided by vote. If there's a tie, I'll have the final say."

As Ye Qing said this, he also began to sort and pack the props and distributed them to everyone.

The prop packages received by everyone present were not the same. The ones given to back-row players like Anjie were different from those given to Huangfu Wenning and others.

Needless to say, everyone chose the first option unanimously.

"Summon the Demon King? Okay, everyone, take these props and spread out. Anjie and Yoshitsuki will make some arrangements around here first."

Ye Qing pulled up the map and began to mark a few nodes around, signaling An Jie and Qin Fangyue to wreak some damage, lay some traps, and be ready to fight at any time.

Since he was going to summon the Demon King, Ye Qing had to prepare for the worst.

Before entering the ruins today, Ye Qing had actually prepared himself to fight the Demon King, and he also secretly "reviewed" the information repeatedly.

After all, it had been almost a year, and Ye Qing was afraid that he had forgotten the news.

"And Xiaoyan, I have a lot for you to do today. You need to start setting up a magic circle to summon Shikigami around you, with the altar as the center..."

Listening to Ye Qing's arrangements, Xiaoyan beside him nodded repeatedly. Everything was arranged in an orderly manner.

Before long, the ruins that originally looked desolate remained desolate, but in fact, under the cover of these rubble and vines, there were already all kinds of traps and magic arrays hidden.

"call......"

Ye Qing let out a long sigh and took out the blood-stained bundle from the inventory.

At least from the appearance and the foul smell, no one wanted to know what was inside.

When the bundle was placed on the sacrificial altar, before Ye Qing could even open his mouth, the entire bundle deflated in an instant.

The flesh and blood inside turned into countless tiny blood threads and began to spread around the altar in all directions. A pungent stench also spread at this moment.

"Be careful!"

Ye Qing watched the changes in the bloodshot patterns vigilantly until the moment the patterns representing Asmond were filled, she shouted loudly.

The next moment, the entire altar exploded.

Countless pieces of rubble flew in all directions, but Anjie and the others were prepared and set up a defensive barrier to block the rubble.

Chapter 48 War begins

After Roland left the church, he went for a walk around the black market area.

After "trading" with a group of players and NPCs, he collected a lot of things he needed.

He had a small bag of money hanging around his waist and a large cloth bag on his back. There were already more people on the street, and when they saw him coming, women and children slightly moved away. He did not linger on the busy street, but directly knocked on the door of a room in the lower city.

"You're back?"

A young girl walked out of the room and opened the door. She was a gentle and lovely girl. In this era of precocious maturity, she looked very mature in her teens, with black hair hanging down to her shoulders, a well-proportioned figure, and a smile on her face.

Roland put the big bag on the ground, took a breath, took off the purse and handed it to the girl: "Here you go. I had a lot of money, but Li Xi made me an offer I couldn't refuse, so I spent a lot of it, and some was used to buy essential herbs and stones. In the end, there wasn't much left, I didn't count carefully."

"Enough for a month's expenses—if you must keep up the weekly séances."

The girl took the purse and weighed it.

Roland shook his head. "No, if this thing I bought at such a high price is real, then I just need to summon the spirit once more. If it's fake, I'll go and get my money back."

After successfully summoning the Demon King Beelzebub, Roland still needed something.

He cannot rely entirely on Beelzebub's power, not to mention that Beelzebub is showing

Turning around to go upstairs, Roland seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, I may have to go out soon. Can you help me prepare some clothes and food?"

The girl stopped counting the money and looked at Roland: "I heard from others that it's not safe outside recently. Although I know you don't need me to worry about you, but if you are exposed..."

Roland stared at his girl and interrupted her:

"If I succeed, then there may be hope for both your parents and me. To take back my life from the underworld is such a rebellious thing. I must pay the price for it. Taking risks is necessary."

"Are you serious?"

The girl's eyes lit up:.

Roland didn't answer. He picked up the bag and walked up the stairs. He just raised his fist at the corner and waved it firmly at the girl.

Pulling a stool over and sitting in front of the desk, Roland placed the package on the desk. After opening it, a scent of the forest hit him. There were more than a dozen bottles filled with soil and various plants growing in them. The bottles were plugged with wooden stoppers and lay in the package. Roland picked them up and placed them neatly aside. Below them were some bottles and jars filled with liquids or ground solids, and even a few filled with living small animals, insects, fish fry, etc.

After taking all these things out, the largest object was revealed. It was an incomplete stone with a smooth side and words engraved on it. It seemed to have been peeled off from a stone tablet. In Li Xi's shop, the old man only showed Roland a symbol engraved on the stone, and the latter couldn't wait to buy it.

The symbol is just above the center of the stone. It is very simple, just a circular vortex made up of curves.

"Abyss." Roland sighed in a low voice.

He continued reading. Understanding the abyss text was just basic knowledge, and he didn't need to look up any books.

The content engraved on the stone is incomplete and incoherent. It seems that the text on this stone tablet was originally engraved horizontally, but this stone only contains a few vertical columns. Fortunately, many of the remaining parts are key parts.

"...The Emperor is preparing...

...Desire Believer...

...will meet the final mystery of death...

...Summoning the elements of the flesh...

...with sufficient preparation, we will surely..."

After reading these words, Roland frowned, but then relaxed his brows, revealing an expression of sudden enlightenment but disbelief.

"That emperor once tried to take back his life from the hands of death. How could that be possible? But what happened in the future?"

He muttered to himself, "But if that old dog can try, why can't I succeed?"

He placed his index finger on his forehead and leaned forward slightly.

"But before facing the chaos, I have to go out first. I have to make some preparations. I think there is nothing outside that can threaten me for the time being, but the abyss has the ability to kill me. Weighing the two evils, I know how to do this." He pondered.

Roland stood up and paced back and forth in the room. The little animals in the jars had been crawling around and making a lot of noise, but he didn't plan to pay attention. A quarter of an hour later, he finally stopped and cast his eyes to a corner of the room. There, a wooden stick about the height of a person leaned against the wall. The surface was polished to be smooth and non-slip, and the thickness was the same from top to bottom, just enough for Roland to hold it completely. Except for a small piece of gold foil wrapped around the top, there was no other decoration on the stick.

"Old friend, I need your help again this time." Roland said to his wizard staff.

But at this moment, Roland, who was still making preparations in the imperial capital, stopped, and the pupil of his right eye, which was blocked by his hair, suddenly changed.

This made him stop what he was doing suddenly, and he looked towards the central city area with extreme vigilance.

"Another demon king has awakened?"

Roland seemed to be talking to the air, but at this moment a fly landed on his shoulder.

Such a subtle change naturally went unnoticed by the people around him, but the sweet female voice also reached Roland's ears.

"I guess so, but it's not complete. I guess some fool touched it by mistake."

Lengtouqing?

Roland sneered. If this kind of thing could be regarded as a mistake made by a young man, he would probably not be alive today.

Now that the devil has suddenly awakened again, it must be caused by human factors.

Even Roland knew in his heart that anyone who took the initiative to awaken the Demon King at this time was definitely not a follower of the Demon King.

It's not the right time, and it's not the right time.

The only possibility is that someone trying to kill the Demon King appeared and seized the opportunity.

"Whoever it is, make a bigger noise."

Roland quietly disappeared into the street.

When the altar exploded, some people in the entire imperial capital also reacted at this moment.

The group of deformed ministers who followed Feilin disappeared one after another, without even the slightest respect for the future queen, and simply turned around and left.

But now Feilin didn't care about these things at all. She glanced at the deformed ministers who disappeared around her, and hurriedly picked up her skirt and hurried towards her mansion.

The sudden disappearance of these deformed ministers must be related to the demonic forces within the ruins!

She had to find a way to help Ye Qing and others as much as possible, especially now that there was no surveillance.

However, when Feilin was on her way to her mansion, she was suddenly stopped by the Royal Knights.

"Step aside!"

Feilin shouted to the royal knights, but they still stood silently in the middle of the corridor.

Seeing this scene, even the dumbest person would understand what is going on.

"Is it Father?"

Feilin couldn't help but secretly clench her teeth. The only way for the Royal Knights to be able to command them and dare to stop her was that the order was given by her father himself.

At the other end of the portal, the huge dark blue demon egg leaf appeared in front of everyone after the altar exploded.

The vines and blood vessels around it were connected to the Demon's egg. The light within them kept flickering and beating rhythmically like a heart.

Ye Qing had already raised the sword and slowly walked towards the demon egg.

Just one stab of the sword would be enough to nip Asmund's revival in the bud.

But things were developing so smoothly that Ye Qing couldn't help but feel a little worried.

What's going on? It doesn't seem like things should be going so smoothly.

With this thought in mind, Ye Qing asked his teammates to be alert and slowly approached the front of the demon egg.

"Use whatever tricks you have..."

Ye Qing murmured softly, and the sword in his hand was about to stab towards the demon egg.

A shrill whistle suddenly came from behind him, and several black shadows suddenly rushed out from the direction of the portal.

come yet?!

The sword in Ye Qing's hand had already stabbed down directly, but the several black shadows had already rushed towards her at an extremely fast speed.

Without any hesitation, the sword in Ye Qing's hand almost brushed past the demon egg at its limit and soared into the air at the same time.

The black shadow passed by at a very fast speed, and Ye Qing took advantage of this short period of time to see clearly what the black shadow was.

They were exactly the group of deformed ministers who had followed Feilin before, but now they were all rotten and looked no longer human.

At the moment when the group of black shadows passed by, Ye Qing landed at the same time, but the demon egg was also hidden by those black shadows.
