A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

“Ling Realm Mark.”

Looking at the white crystal floating and slowly rotating, releasing special fluctuations, Shen Mu's originally relaxed face gradually became serious.

The remaining memories of his predecessor still made him feel somewhat uneasy.

But Shen Mu suddenly smiled softly.

“Unfortunately, I am not the good-for-nothing my predecessor was, nor do I understand why the me in the parallel world would be like that.”

“But I generally know that things are different now.”

Then he directly stepped forward, refusing the eager support of the two Swadian infantrymen, and arrived at the lord's private domain.

Inside, seven farmers armed with pitchforks had just searched every corner and room. Judging by the bloodstains on the tips of their pitchforks, it was clear that some small demons or lesser demons had already met their demise under these farmers' pitchforks.

Including the three bandits who had just walked out of the room, holding butcher knives, their faces were covered with splattered blood and ferocious smiles.

However, when they saw Shen Mu, this lord, they quickly put away their ferocious expressions, put away the butcher knives in their hands, and stood obediently to the side, not daring to say much.

Of course, Shen Mu did not blame these soldiers who fought for him.

Shen Mu was more concerned about the Ling Realm Mark in front of him.

This scene core!

“This is it.”

Shen Mu came to the side of this crystal and slowly stretched out his hand, his mood slightly excited at this moment.

Because he knew.

No matter what Ling Realm Mark it was, as long as he touched this kind of crystal, he could obtain the inheritance from the Ling Realm!

Some were Ling Realm creatures, some were Ling Realm professional inheritances, some were various Ling Realm treasures, and some belonged to Ling Realm buildings or even plants…

Strange and varied, everything was possible!

Because the Ling Realm Mark itself was a fragment evolved from a part of the completely shattered Ling Realm crystal wall system!

‘Buzz!’

The moment Shen Mu's outstretched hand finally landed on this crystal, that wave reappeared.

But in Shen Mu's brow, countless tiny data streams instantly gathered all these fluctuations, as if casting a fishing net to complete the capture of the fish school that wanted to escape!

‘Buzz!’

The white crystal core, covered with dark red, net-like blood vessels, vibrated again at this time.

Before Shen Mu could react, it was directly and completely absorbed by those white data streams.

Turning into strands of pure white light, it was dragged back to Shen Mu's brow by the data stream that resembled a large net.

‘Drip!’

Only drops of dark red, viscous liquid like blood were left, as if they had lost their attachment, dripping onto the ground, sizzling with black smoke, turning into dried blood clots.

Then, on Shen Mu's retina, new dialog boxes immediately popped up.

【Ding! You have absorbed special rules and extracted the special energy contained within!】

【You can perform a ‘Fantasy Side Troop - Character Template Upgrade’ once.】

【You have completed a temporary mission!】

【Ding! You have obtained: ‘Magic Ball (Map Editor) Usage Permission × 30 minutes’.】

【Congratulations! You led your troops to a hearty victory and received a ‘Silver Treasure Chest’ × 1.】

【Congratulations! You have soldiers that can be upgraded!】

Dialog boxes appeared one after another.

“Fantasy Side Troop's character upgrade template.”

Shen Mu scanned the contents of the dialog box, his eyes directly fixed on this key special term.

He noticed the extraordinary nature of this special term.

Especially the special words ‘Fantasy Side Troop’ inside, which made Shen Mu raise his eyebrows slightly:

“Could it be that this time, the rewarded character template upgrade is no longer limited to ordinary Swadian infantry or Swadian heavy cavalry, this kind of conventional kingdom troop upgrade, but has been replaced with a troop template upgrade from a fantasy-type MOD!?”

This was really a surprise for Shen Mu.

‘Buzz!’

Just as Shen Mu was pleasantly surprised, he suddenly felt a shaking sensation under his feet, as if it were an earthquake.

“What's going on?” Shen Mu came back to his senses, but found that cracks were suddenly cracking on the surrounding walls with the shaking, filled with some kind of dark abyss, and at a glance, it seemed as if even the soul would be sucked in.

“Earthquake! Protect Lord Shen Mu and leave quickly! This castle is about to collapse! Go!”

Just beside Shen Mu, the faces of the two Swadian infantrymen who were still acting as guards suddenly changed drastically.

They sensed the danger.

At this time, they couldn't care about the difference in status with Shen Mu, and directly grabbed Shen Mu's arm, rushing towards the spiral staircase they had come from, and quickly ran downstairs.

Protecting the life safety of this big man, Shen Mu, was the supreme will in the hearts of these Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers!

Arriving at the castle hall, the shaking became more intense.

More cracks also appeared.

“Go!”

The Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers who were originally searching for the remaining demons had now returned to the corridor outside the security door.

Then they saw the two Swadian infantrymen, together supporting Shen Mu's arm, also running back to the corridor in big strides.

At this time, in the castle, within this Ling Realm scene, whether it was the walls or the ground, larger and larger cracks and openings appeared in the violent shaking, and a large number of stones and wood collapsed and fell on the ground, making the cracks even larger.

It also made the dark abyss in the cracks more and more obvious.

With an eternal darkness that could suck away the soul at a glance, it was clawing and infiltrating into the rapidly disintegrating castle in the cracks.

And when the last bandit jumped into the corridor, the darkness that shocked the soul instantly enveloped the entire castle.

‘Buzz!’

Only a special fluctuation containing the power of time and space flickered, as if a small light burst out in this darkness.

When everyone on the corridor, who was still stunned watching this side, subconsciously closed their eyes and then opened them again.

The light disappeared.

Even the darkness inside the security door disappeared together.

Including that castle.

Or rather, the Ling Realm scene inside this security door completely disappeared from Blue Star with that light.

“This… that… the castle is gone?”

“It turned back into a room again…”

The faces of several Swadian infantrymen close to room 4070 all showed surprised expressions.

Because after they blinked, what appeared in front of them was no longer the monster corpse-filled, relatively empty castle hall.

But a small apartment suite that was no different from other ordinary rooms!

“The Ling Realm scene collapsed into the space-time turbulence due to the disappearance of the core crystal.”

Shen Mu was quite clear about what was going on.

Slowly closing his eyes.

In his brow, the four rewards from this mission completion were still floating in his mind.

Character template upgrade.

Magic Ball usage permission.

Silver treasure chest.

And the soldiers who could be upgraded after the battle!

“The harvest is not bad.”

Shen Mu's mouth slightly curved up.

This time the harvest was indeed good.

“Let's go back.” Shen Mu inserted the Germanic sword in his hand back into the scabbard at his waist and led the team back to the stronghold's main house.

“Lord Shen Mu!”

At this time, the ten experienced Lake Rat Gang thugs stationed in the elevator room, responsible for guarding the area, were still standing straight on guard.

Seeing Shen Mu coming over, they also reached out to beat their chests and bowed in salute.

“Yes.” Shen Mu nodded: “Did you see anything unusual?”

“No.”

The ten experienced Lake Rat Gang thugs answered seriously.

But at this time, one of the experienced Lake Rat Gang thugs still reported: “Lord Shen Mu, Miss Liu Na from the fifth floor, and her halfling elder, Poro, came over twenty minutes ago, wanting to meet you, but we blocked them back, saying that you were working and would take the initiative to meet them after finishing work.”

“Liu Na and her halfling?” Shen Mu was slightly stunned, and then reacted: “It should be related to last night's battle.”

The commotion last night was so big that this apartment must have noticed something.

As allies.

Even if it was just an ally in name, a partner with no vested interests, it was right for Liu Na to come over and take a look.

However, Shen Mu's alliance with Liu Na was only to complete the task. Anyway, he currently had no need for Liu Na and her halfling, even knowing that Liu Na was a druid, to help him, so the relationship had always been lukewarm.

“Well, I know.” Shen Mu still turned around and returned to the stronghold's main house, without directly arranging a meeting.

Now, what was more important to Shen Mu was to use the rewards he had just obtained to quickly complete the building's deployment and use the Magic Ball map editor to complete the transformation of the entire seventh floor!

Because in Shen Mu's mind, there was still something faintly more.

When Shen Mu closed his eyes.

He could sense in the dark that between the Ling Realm and Blue Star, in that tiny, small space where the space-time turbulence was fixed, countless large stones, neatly arranged wood, could be summoned by him at any time and descend on Blue Star.

And then build a small, stone-made castle main body of considerable size!

“Because the Ling Realm Mark I obtained is a Ling Realm Mark that can summon an entire human castle!”

Shen Mu's mouth slightly curved up.

Sitting on the long-backed chair, Shen Mu's thoughts instantly communicated with the system.

‘Buzz!’

The rules from the Mount \u0026 Blade system instantly descended.

Once again turning Shen Mu into a third-person perspective state.
