Chapter 136: Taking shortcuts is taking long detours
"ha?!"
The [Dragon of Light and Darkness] behind him was picking up the dust in the cracks of his fingernails in boredom, looking at the World Tree that was already very close, with a distorted face and shouted at the person blocking the road, "You said I can't pass.
What does this mean?"
Perhaps it's because the others who clearly used mounts to travel were very smoothly passing through the sky, the ground, the water, the forest, and the girl's skirt (this was crossed out) towards the World Tree that had been shortened by a lot, but only
Wan Zhangmu was intercepted by this inexplicable guy in front of him.
Just now, he was flying well in the air while sitting on the [Dragon of Light and Darkness], but suddenly he was knocked down from the sky by this big man wearing a cloak. If it weren't for the [Dragon of Light and Darkness]'s body,
He caught himself in the air, otherwise he would have been thrown to death.
Even though he remembered that this was not a real world but a virtual world, Wan Zhangmu was still very angry when he was suddenly approached. However, unexpectedly, the other party coldly told Wan Zhangmu that the road ahead was closed.
"I hate saying something to the same person twice, because if you have to say something twice to understand it, it means that the other person has a bad mind. Please don't let me say it a second time." The words of the man in the cloak seemed very polite.
, but the tone used when he spoke was quite cold, "In order to maintain the current stability of the nine realms, no living beings are allowed to approach the sleeping place of the King of Middle Court. This is an absolute mission issued by our king."
"No living beings are allowed to come near? Then who are they?" Wan Zhangmu pointed at the other students in the sky who were flying through the airspace on large and small mounts, and said dissatisfied, "I can't live with them? Today I won't
Let’s see who can stop me!”
With that said, Wan Zhangmu rolled up his sleeves and was about to take out his deck and summon some monsters to support the scene.
The guy in the cloak didn't pay attention to the threat from Wan Zhang Meng. He just glanced behind him coldly and said: "I am just one of the king's servants. I am only responsible for intercepting those who are stronger than other soldiers. Those people are not under my control."
.”
"Other soldiers?" Wan Zhangmu was stunned and looked into the air again, only to see that almost in an instant, countless golden rays of light flew up from the ground and passed through the horses and even themselves of those people in the sky.
Nearly one-tenth of the large group of people who had just returned to the chaos were cleared away in an instant, and the flying light turned at an acute angle and began to harvest the rest.
Not just in the sky, those golden rays of light also swooped down into the forest, breaking down all the trees blocking the road. They seemed to be hunting people who took the land route. The same was true in the river not far away.
, Wan Zhangmu saw with his own eyes the body of a student from the Obelisk-Blue dormitory riding a [Seahorse Beast], which was directly smashed into pieces by the light, and disappeared without pain.
It was also because the target had been smashed into pieces that the golden light slowed down slightly. Wanzhang Mu was able to see clearly the body of the light. It turned out to be a long sword and a tower shield that were as high as the body. He was fully armed and had beautiful golden light wings on his back.
"Angel Knight"!?
Asuka, who was riding [Old Saint Dai-Shi Long], was not selected as the target of attack at the first time because she was carrying three people and set off a step later than the main force, but looking at her classmates who were "massacred", she
I still felt horrified and subconsciously angry at the "death" of my classmates.
There was no time to calm down the panicked Momoe and Junko. She stood on one of the paws of [Old Saint Dai-Shilong], summoned the next-generation duel disc on her left arm, and immediately summoned her strongest
The [Electronic Angel]-[Electronic Angel-Meizhu Ru-] guards in front of you to guard against attacks that may come at any time.
Unexpectedly, a boy from the Huang dormitory, the Sun God, who was being carried away by [Mo Linfen] and wanted to escape, was "killed" by the golden light less than ten meters away from Asuka, but the "Angel Knight"
He just glanced at Asuka and the others, showing no intention of taking action and hovering quietly in the air.
Asuka, who didn't know what the other party meant, was on guard, and was about to continue moving forward under the protection of [Cyber Angel - Mei Zhuru-], but unexpectedly, [Old Saint Dai Shilong] under her body just moved.
The "angel knight" immediately raised the long sword held in his right hand with a "clop" sound and pointed it at Asuka, as if she would attack if she moved again.
Frowning, Asuka tried to ask [Old Saint Dai-Shilong] to retreat a little. Just as she expected, the Angel Knight also lowered the sword a little bit with [Old Saint Dai-Shiryu], and then moved on [Old Saint Dai-Shiryu].
When Dai Shilong tried to get closer again, he raised his knife simultaneously.
"Will those 'soldiers' only attack enemies who enter the designated range?" Wan Zhangmu withdrew his gaze from the sky, and was about to continue, "But Uncle Wan Zhangmu, I am different from other miscellaneous fishes. My words -
"
He suddenly stopped talking, and of course there was a reason. After all, who can remain calm when they find themselves being pointed at by a dozen knives?
The man who stopped Wan Zhangmu casually lifted up his cloak, revealing armor that was the same as those of the "Angel Knights", but with obviously more sophisticated details and a lot of gorgeous decorations. He slowly raised his sword,
Together with other soldiers, he surrounded Wan Zhangmu and said: "If someone insists on breaking in, we will risk our lives to let the other party understand the sharpness of the sword in our hands."
"What did you want to say just now?"
She turned her head stiffly to avoid irritating these dangerous guys with too much movement. She glanced behind her and was about to ask for help from the [Dragon of Light and Darkness], but found that she was also surrounded by a dozen "angel soldiers".
Surrounding her, although it may not be able to stop her, it can at least prevent Wan Zhangmu from being rescued by the [Dragon of Light and Darkness] immediately.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "——What I just said is, but Uncle Wan Zhangmu, I am different from other miscellaneous fish. What I said is very clear about what it means to be a gentleman without standing behind a dangerous wall.
'That's it." After brushing off his arrogance, Wan Zhangmu said seriously, "There is an old saying called 'Western material Wei Junjie', of course I will not enter such a dangerous place."
"Is it okay if I take a detour?"
Although it was frustrating not being able to pass directly through the area in front of him, it didn't matter much if Wanzhangmu took a long detour, not only because even if he was a little slower, he would be better than the tenth generation president who was still walking slowly behind.
It was still much faster, and more importantly, it was not tiring to take a long detour - after all, it was the [Dragon of Light and Darkness] who was on the way, not himself.
Just as Wan Zhangmu was thinking this, he heard the "Angel Knight" who seemed to be the leader who stopped him say: "The location where the King of the Atrium sleeps is the entire Midgard of the Atrium, and the area around the World Tree is prohibited from entering.
Even if you take a detour, you won't be able to find a place where you can pass through our guards and get closer to the World Tree."
"Huh? According to what you said, it's impossible for me to reach the World Tree?" Even if he was pointed at by someone with a knife, Wan Zhangmu couldn't help but get angry. "Why is the king so great? Why don't you let him go when he's asleep?"
Someone wakes me up? What if I have to try?"
Hearing Wan Zhangmu's words, the knight commander pointed to the distance and asked Wan Zhangmu: "Can you see there?"
Glancing at the direction the other person was pointing, Wan Zhang Mu said contemptuously: "It's such a long row of mountains. If I can't see such a long row of mountains, wouldn't I be blind?"
"That is part of the sleeping King of Midgard." The Knight Commander said seriously, "Theoretically, after digging through that mountain, you can see the true body of the King of Midgard buried deep underground, and then you can try
Awaken it by attacking the body with the same strength as the world. But the prerequisite is that you can penetrate the scales that are strong enough to block Mjolnir and the skin that is as thick as the earth and hurt its real flesh and blood."
"...Actually, I just said it casually. I also hate people who wake me up for no reason." Wan Zhangmu decisively gave up his previous idea and complained, "What the hell is that?
Amazing, your body is so big and it still has scales?"
He didn't expect that the cold and mechanical angel knight in front of him would answer him, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually say the answer: "King Jörmungandr."
"...Wait a minute, who? Jörmungandr?" Wan Zhangmu asked again with some uncertainty, "The earthly python in Norse mythology?"
The answer was the knight commander's cold gaze. Obviously, as he said before, he would not say the same thing twice to the same person.
"I wanted to complain when I saw the World Tree before, but now even Jörmungandr has appeared? That guy Judai must be very excited when he finds out. After all, isn't this the background of the 'heroic epic' he dreamed of?
"?" Wan Zhangmu said, frowning in distress.
No wonder the journey here went so smoothly. There were no special restrictions or special events. He was waiting here for the first batch of people to arrive. The problem now is that these "angel knights" stopped everyone.
Entering the location of Jörmungandr, who is known as the "King of the Middle Court" for some reason, but after entering this virtual world, the first and only mission and guidance their group received was to go to that world.
The location of the tree.
Is it possible that the only way to get there is to fight all the way?
Just as Wan Zhangmu was distressed, the knight commander suddenly said: "If you want to reach the location of the World Tree, you don't necessarily have to arrive directly from the courtyard, because it connects the nine worlds and can also be reached from other worlds.
The location of the World Tree."
"Sounds really good. I can't even pass your blockade. Now let's go to other worlds, haha?"
The strange aura of Wanzhangmu was clearly heard by Asuka who descended from the sky. She did not continue to confront the soldiers in the sky. After she caught a glimpse of Wanzhangmu being surrounded, she immediately chose to come to the ground to see if Wanzhangmu needed support.
"Other worlds? What do you mean?"
"This virtual world seems to be based on Nordic mythology. I originally thought it was just a restoration of the World Tree, but I didn't expect it to be a restoration of Jörmungandr, the Nine Realms and so on." Wan Zhangmu saw Asuka's arrival.
, also complained, "This guy said that the place in front of Jormungandr where he sleeps is not allowed to enter, but you can go to the location of the World Tree from other worlds."
"I don't even know where the end of the universe is, how can I know how to get to other worlds?"
The knight commander listened to Wan Zhangmu's complaint, but he tilted his head. His facial expression covered by the helmet could not be seen, but his movements were enough to reveal his confusion: "But, there is something right in the direction you came from.
A teleportation rune array that can lead to the nine realms. Is it possible that you didn't walk through it on the ground at all, but took the shortcut in the sky?"
"Taking shortcuts is taking a long detour."
At the same time, the students who were killed by the "Angel Knights" and who forgot that this was a virtual world and thought they were really dead felt gravity binding their bodies again, and there was a feeling of stepping on the ground on their feet. They subconsciously
He opened his eyes and looked around blankly.
A bouncing student from the red dormitory looked at the large group of people who had appeared in front of the exit of the duel venue that had long since left, and asked doubtfully: "Huh? I remember you had already left before, why did you show up again?
Are you here?"
"This..." Standing at the front of the crowd was the boy from the Obelisk-Blue dormitory who had mocked others after summoning [Molin Fen]. Could it be that he wanted to say that he was flying in the sky?
He was killed by a ray of light for no apparent reason? That would be too embarrassing!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I, I thought it was boring to ride a duel monster, so I flew back specially to walk there."
"Yes, yes, we all feel the same way." Several other students in the Blue Dormitory who were neighbors with him also hurriedly agreed.
"It feels safer to walk on your own feet." "I think so too."
The student in the red dormitory was not killed directly by the golden light, but fell from the sky to the ground and died. Another student who was also lucky enough not to be killed with the [Lion Wizard] he summoned, but died because he fell into the river and could not swim.
The drowned blue dormitory student now transcended their different dormitory classes and had a common language.
"Zhongbang, why are you still here and what are you doing?" A student who recognized the boy in the red dormitory also cooperated with the others and actively changed the subject away from why they appeared here, and transferred the name Zhongbang.
Boys' attention.
"Oh, because my interest in the competition is only average, and then Shi Ze's classmates happened to ask a few of us to help test the data, so we just stayed here to help." With that, Zhong Bang turned around and said, "Hideze,
Jizhu! Is everything okay over there?"
"I'm done here." The bespectacled man said, pushing up his glasses.
Huang Mao Jizhu also responded: "I've done it too, classmate Qizhe!"
"It's Misawa!" Standing in front of a console, Misawa corrected angrily, then covered his cheek, "Forget it, there is no need to argue about this, it is more important to test my calculation results now."
"Basic skeleton, explained..."
"Gravity parameters, substitute..."
"Operating system, start..."
"Energy filling, ready..."
"The whole project is completed——"
As Misawa pushed the joystick, a huge tarpaulin covering something behind him was lifted, and a huge robot slowly stood up in front of everyone and stood on the ground!
"Yada! It ran very smoothly. I successfully made a large robot in this world!"
Along with Misawa's excited cheers, others complained: "It's so smooth, it must be a Gundam! Be careful of being sued for infringement!"
"How on earth did this guy manage to create a Gundam in this world when there was nothing there?"
"Are all the top students in the yellow dormitory monsters?"
"We were able to make a Gundam in such a short period of time? I can't even imagine what he could have found out in just one day!"
"What a fun toy, isn't it?"
A female voice suddenly sounded. Others turned their heads in confusion to see who made this strange voice. However, they saw a lady wearing an elegant dress walking from a distance. Her hair was as bright as a treasure in the world.
The long hair is flying in the wind.
However, what caught the attention of the boys present more than the beautiful women was the eye-catching mechanical giant!
"Armor defense judgment: weak; power transmission judgment: weak; structural strength judgment: weak; control level judgment: weak." Mechanical synthesized sounds came from the limbs of the giant metal creature, "Voting results: 90% voting rate, useless
machinery."
"Conclusion: Immediate destruction."
The mechanical giant reached for his back and pulled out a huge hammer. In the eyes of all the boys with regret and heartache, he swung the hammer and smashed Misawa's "Gundam"!
