Male lead, don't be impulsive, it's me [System]

The only two gates of Zheli City are on the north and south sides, and the west side has only the city wall.

In fact, in a peaceful age like the present, except for the fortress cities, main cities and royal cities on the borders of the country, there will be city walls built, and generally small towns will rarely build city walls. In the future, it will take a lot of effort to maintain and repair. From a financial point of view, regular maintenance of the city wall is also a considerable expense.Therefore, many city walls left over from the ancient times were gradually eroded by the years and were torn down and replaced by new buildings.

As one of the three main cities of the Randir Empire, Zheli City has a defensive facility like a city wall.The defense strength of Zheli City is second only to the royal city of Palandi within the Randir Empire, especially the west city wall of Zheli City, whose thickness is almost comparable to the scale of the city wall of the Royal City. On the Ghost Swamp on the west side of the city—except for the city wall with a considerable thickness and very high security level, there is even a special sentinel on duty there, just so that if anything happens in the Ghost Swamp, Zheli City can be in the first place. respond.

Among the nobles, there are many people who joke that Ralph, the lord of Zheli City, is too careful, mocking him for wasting his energy every year for being a "non-problem hooligan".After all, those monsters have been staying in the ghost swamp all year round, and they have never been seen even in the wind.

that's the truth.

Although the ghost swamp is a huge lair of monsters, except for the two cases where humans strayed into the territory of the monsters and felons were exiled and executed, the monsters in the ghost swamp have no bad record of actively going out to attack humans.For a long time, the residents of Jerry City, the business travellers, and the monsters in the Phantom Swamp have lived a peaceful life without invading each other, but the environment of the Phantom Swamp is too special, and only a very small number of people can live in peace by themselves. It's just that, in the absence of any huge profit motive, those in power will naturally not do such overkill and waste manpower and material resources on a monster lair that has never had any major events.

However, in view of the fact that this is a huge lair of monsters, there are still certain security risks, so His Majesty the King of the Randir Empire allocates funds for regular repairs to the city walls of Zheli City every year. The opportunity to earn a good name like this should not be missed, given the circumstances.

At this moment, Ralph, the lord of Zheli City, was very grateful that he had never been shaken by the rumors and did something to embezzle the money. Every year, the money for repairing the city wall was used where it should go.

The bells on the west wall rang four times in total, as long as the citizens of the Randir Empire knew that the four ringing bells were the alarm of the enemy's attack!

It was only in the afternoon that he sent his best friend Martial Saint Angus away, and this happened in the evening. Aldington, the bishop of the temple, immediately smelled something bad from the four ringing bells.

The sentinels on the west wall rode fast horses and delivered the news to the city lord that the monsters in the ghost swamp had rioted and had swept towards Zheli City at the fastest speed. A quarter of an hour had passed since they discovered the beast horde.Within a quarter of an hour, the troops of Jerry City had been divided into three groups, guarding the west wall and the north and south gates respectively. The city lord Ralph sent people to the temple to find Bishop Orr as soon as he got the news. Dington.

Those monsters aimed at the direction of Zheli City, and their purpose was obvious. This means that the garrison of Zheli City will fight with the attacking monsters, which is almost inevitable. Under such circumstances, whether it is assistance or treatment, they urgently need the assistance of the temple.

As early as when the four bells were ringing, the bishop had already begun to gather the clergy in the temple together and organized them into groups according to their clergy. After the entourage sent by the city lord explained the attack of the beast tide and the current distribution of troops in the city one by one , and immediately dispatched the pre-organized clergy to the three directions of the west city wall and the north and south gates. The whole process wasted almost no time, and the followers of the city lord who came to report the letter were convinced.

The bishop himself did not choose to stay in the temple, but walked with the clergy who were going to the western city wall.

Aldington's move naturally has unspeakable selfishness. The incident of the mutated violent rats attacking the residents in the candy house three days ago was due to the intervention of the clergy, so in the end it was the temple that sorted out the whole process of the incident. All the follow-up will be handled by the city lord. However, neither he nor Angus has disclosed any speculation about the possible connection between Alyssa and the high-level monsters in the Phantom Swamp. Angus He is the only one who knows about going to the ghost swamp.

Aldington knew that Angus probably had something to do with the attack of the beast horde in the middle of the night. Since the trouble was caused by the strength of the Martial Saint level, no matter how thick the western city wall was built, it might be in danger of being breached.

Angus's going to the Phantom Swamp can be regarded as his involvement, and it will cause such consequences. Aldington is somewhat to blame, so he must go to the west wall and try his best to save the city of Jerry. crisis to a minimum.

As for Naxi, let alone that he is only a reserve clergyman at the moment, and he will not be a full-time priest until the inauguration ceremony half a month later. The bishop did not include a genius who could trigger a riot of light elements into this rescue team.

It's a pity that Naxi can only live up to the Bishop's consideration for him.

Within 10 minutes of staying in Reza's basement, Naxi spent 10 points from the trading interface in exchange for a bottle of truth potion with the shortest duration of effect, and used it to dig her out of Alyssa's mouth. And all the secrets between the high-level Warcraft.

Everything he heard from Alyssa made him unable to ignore the beast swarm. Just as the two adults guessed in the afternoon, Alyssa really had something to do with a high-level monster in the Phantom Swamp!And the relationship between her and that monster is indeed a relationship of controlling and being controlled!The group of harmless jerboas were also mutated and violent in the hands of high-level monsters, and they were temporarily handed over to Alyssa to control them, just to find a suitable "host" for them.It's a pity that Alyssa herself didn't seem to have seen the body of the high-level monster, but only had a deep impression on its breath, so she didn't find any information about the high-level monster.

However, the points spent in exchange for the bottle of mantra potion are worth the money. Naxi dug the most crucial piece of information from Alyssa's mouth - the ultimate purpose of the high-level monster to control Alyssa is to Want to be human!

Naxi has indeed heard that these intelligent high-level monsters have souls that can kill humans, and have achieved the forbidden technique of occupying human bodies. As long as they imitate properly, they will become a real human being, replace this person, and It is not difficult to survive in the crowd.It’s just that casting this kind of forbidden technique needs all the flesh and blood of the monster’s body as the medium. Once the forbidden technique is successful and the monster enters the human body, its body will completely perish. up.

It can be said that the forbidden technique of monsters occupying human bodies does not leave any room for themselves. It is for this reason that after being promoted to intelligent creatures, basically no one is willing to give up their powerful bodies and choose to become them. The existence of monsters in the eyes of fragile human beings.

However, Alyssa unexpectedly met such a strange person who wanted to become a human.

According to the system, it is unknown what kind of luck the D-level heresy in Alyssa's body possesses. The luck is so "good" that she can even meet this kind of situation that can't happen once in tens of thousands of years.

As for why this high-level monster could control Alyssa but did not choose her but instead chose Clovia's body. As the person who expelled the heresy in Alyssa's body, Naxi felt that his guesses were quite likely. Nine is the correct answer—the heresy rating in Alisa's body is D, and her will has been shaken after being locked up in the basement for three days. There is almost no difference between the f-level heretics. Even though it was an expulsion action that was enforced by the system at that time, as the executor, Naxi couldn't understand the feeling of soul power confrontation.

Apparently, the high-level Warcraft doesn't like such "classes". What it wants is a better human body with more potential. Clovia's body is young and has potential, with dual attributes of light and wind. Physique is undoubtedly a very good choice for a monster who wants to quickly integrate into human society.You must know that if a person with a light-attribute physique cultivates properly, using this affinity from the inside out is enough for him to live a good life in human society.

But that clever and cunning Warcraft didn't expect that its plan would be completely destroyed just half way through.

Only then did Naxi know how lucky he was in the crypt three days ago—not long after he took Clovia's body away, the high-level monster appeared in the crypt The reason why the rats brought Clovia there was precisely to allow the high-level monsters to cast forbidden spells to take away Clovia's body.

He was the one who ruined the plan of the monster. After bringing back Clovia's body, she handed it over to her martial saint father Angus. With such a powerful warrior around, the monster couldn't find anything. tricks.

However, in order to investigate the truth, Angus went to the Phantom Swamp, which is the site of the high-level monster. This behavior is tantamount to throwing himself into a trap!Now that the beast tide is coming, anyone in Zheli City who can do his best will join the team to defend Zheli City. If he is that high-level monster, now that he just lost control over Alyssa, he It is bound to take advantage of this great opportunity to mix in the beast tide, and choose the next target that can win its favor.

Naxi, as a human being, especially now that he is still a member of the Temple of Zheli City, naturally would not sit idly by this situation.

It is impossible for Leisa to arrest Alyssa silently and lock her in her basement. The heresy in Alyssa's body has been expelled by Naxi, so he can't disclose the whole thing to the bishop. In a word, I can only bring Leisa to the west city wall to see if there is anything he can help—although I woke up after lying down for three days, my body is a little weak, but my mental strength is very strong, how much can I cast light spells? It's good to do your part.

If the monster really came, maybe he could find a chance to reveal its purpose without any trace.

So, after seeing that all the rescued priests were gone, Naxi took his own cloak and covered it over his body, and looked at Leisa: "You, come with me?"

Leisa seemed to have expected what Naxi would do, and now seeing that he really did as she had requested in the afternoon, and no longer planned to leave her to act alone, the corner of her mouth curled up, and she smiled with satisfaction: "Of course."

The two left the temple together, followed the hurried rescue team from a distance, and headed towards the west city wall.
