    Countless torches lit up in the darkness, and the team of several thousand people spread out over a relatively large area. When the torches were lit, they lit up like stars dotting the large open space in front of the gate of the Dark Tower.  As there were more and more torches, more players and NPC soldiers gradually began to gather in this open space. Although everyone can be considered a member of the Holy Light Council and are working towards the same goal, but  Essentially speaking, the Empire and the Alliance still belong to two different organizations, and it is impossible to achieve true integration so quickly. Moreover, after yesterday's battle, everyone understands that in such a large battle group, there is actually no formation and formation.  When it comes to general command, every point on the battlefield is a small battlefield. Only when every small team wins can the battle be won as a whole. Therefore, compared to yesterday, everyone can distinguish it more clearly, not only  The empire and the alliance formed separate teams. The empire and the alliance were also divided into small teams based on guilds or organizations. Everyone tried to get closer to avoid being left alone, while several other scattered forces also stood together.  As heroes and temporary commanders of this battle, Yi Xuan and Edward stood at the front of the team. Behind them were Edward's Green Watch team and the Holy Light Knights led by Yi Xuan. Yang Kai made it clear.  He came to support Yi Xuan, so he didn't care about any status or status in this battle. A dignified barbarian chief followed Yi Xuan's Knights of Holy Light. Everyone was walking together, and they had obviously  He was incorporated into Yi Xuan's escort team.  Yi Xuan drew his saber and waved it at the door of the Dark Tower, about to announce his advance. At this time, the dwarf hero who led the alliance reinforcements last night on Edward's side was gone.  "I'm sorry, Your Excellency, I think Elder Edward should be the first to enter the Dark Tower. Only in this way will my rebellious subordinates be convinced." Although the tone was polite, the content made people feel uncomfortable.  Yi Xuan frowned. His main goal was to rescue Zhao Beifeng. He thought there was really no need to worry about who would go first and who would come last. He glanced at Edward, who was looking to the side with a casual expression. He didn't know what he was looking at.  , obviously also supports the dwarf's words.  "Okay." Yi Xuan didn't want to waste time on this issue and nodded happily.  "Wait a minute." Sir Rexxar next to Yi Xuan hurriedly stopped him, "Elder Yi, I don't think this is good. After all, the soldiers of the empire hold an important position in the coalition, and the top brass of the empire are very supportive.  Your actions, you see, the honor of entering the Tower of Darkness cannot be given away so easily." Rexxa had a smile on his face. Although he opened his mouth and kept his mouth shut, his tone was clear.  But he is determined not to let it go.  "This" Yi Xuan didn't expect that there would be a problem on such a non-problem issue. No wonder human nature is the key to determining the outcome of everything. This is not a classic. If you haven't made money yet, fight for money first.  Well, if we are defeated this time, whoever enters first will be insulted first.  But in the face of a formidable enemy, Yi Xuan certainly couldn't say such depressing words, and he had to rely on the power of the Alliance and the Empire, so it was hard to be too rigid. Therefore, after Yi Xuan said this, he didn't know what was going to happen next.  How to answer it.  "Sir Rexxar, I have heard about you. What's the matter? I heard that you joined in early. Are you in a hurry to go in and die now?" When talking to the imperial commander, the smell of gunpowder in the dwarf's mouth was obviously strong.  many.  "You may not know this. It is an honor to die in our empire. Unlike your alliance, you may think it is more important to come and clean up the battlefield." Lexa still spoke like a gentleman, and he cursed in a roundabout way.  The dwarf hero didn't turn around at first. He frowned and thought for a while and suddenly said angrily: "What do you mean? Are you saying that I was greedy for life and afraid of death and came late on purpose?" The dwarf hero finished the battlefield yesterday.  He just brought people here. When he came, the people from the empire had already arrived, so he may have thought that only his team was the last to come, so it was particularly harsh to hear Rexxar's words.  Lexa took advantage and said with a proud face, "You said this yourself. I didn't expect that it was because of this that I came late." This sentence further confirmed the dwarf's reputation of being greedy for life and fear of death.  "You" As a warlike dwarf nation, there is probably nothing more insulting than this. The dwarf was so angry that he almost immediately pulled out his war hammer.  At this time, Yi Xuan felt a sudden vibration under his feet. The vibration became more and more obvious. Even the Tower of Darkness began to shake. But soon, Yi Xuan discovered that what was shaking was actually the Tower of Darkness. The earth was  It started to sway under his guidance.  Everyone looked towards the top of the tower in surprise, and saw that the dark clouds in the sky were constantly circling, like a whirlpool, and the core of the rotation was on the top of the tower. I don't know what was there.  The shadow energy was stirring and soon formed a pattern. Yi Xuan stared at the dark clouds for a long time. He felt that the dark energy was not enough.It's just rotating, and it's being absorbed by something. "What's going on? An earthquake?" "It doesn't look like it. I feel like the tower is going to fall." The players were whispering, but it was so violent.  Amid the shaking and roaring sounds, this discussion gradually turned into shouts.  "We won't be directly killed by the tower, right?" "What did you say? I can't hear it." This rumbling sound became louder and louder, and in the end it seemed like someone was beating a drum in my ears. It was exactly like this drum  In the sound, Yi Xuan clearly heard the system prompts.  System prompt: The Dark Sage Zhao Beifeng is conducting a ritual to resurrect the God of Shadow. When this ritual is completed, the God of Shadow will come to the world again. Since the God of Shadow is about to be resurrected, dark energy controls the entire Dark Tower.  The Dark Sage Zhao Beifeng has gained full control of the Dark Tower. He is currently on the 99th floor performing the resurrection ceremony of the God of Shadow. In order to prevent the resurrection of the God of Shadow, Zhao Beifeng must be killed before dawn tomorrow.  After the system prompts, the rumbling sound gradually decreases, and finally turns into the buzzing vibration sound at the beginning. It seems that it was the movement when the ceremony was started. In any case, since it can make such a big movement, it seems  The power of this ritual cannot be underestimated.  Now there is a time limit. It is really a long way to go to reach the 99th floor before dawn. Yi Xuan can't control so much at this time. There is no such thing as the American time to argue about the first achievement. Waving  Holding his saber and shouting at the crowd: "Come with me." Then the silver horse under Yi Xuan's crotch raised its front hooves high, made a long and thin cry, stepped forward with four hooves and rushed in towards the gate, behind him  A hundred knights and savages mingled among them followed.  When Edward saw it, he couldn't let him take all the limelight by himself, so he hurriedly shouted: "For the honor of the Holy Light." Then he chased after him.  In this way, there will no longer be any dispute between the Empire and the Alliance, and everyone will rush in first.  As soon as I arrived at the gate of the Tower of Darkness, I felt the gloomy and cold wind blowing constantly outside, as if there was a huge cave inside. Although the ten thousand year lamps were still lit inside, today's darkness  Tag is extremely eerie.  Yi Xuan rushed to the hall on the first floor and looked up. The entire hall seemed to be shrouded in an indescribable dark mist, which made people feel deeply uneasy. This was still how Yi Xuan felt. The template was slightly  Lower heroes or players with lower levels feel absolutely frightening fear at this time. In fact, this hall is still the same hall, and the layout is still the same, but it makes the people in it uncomfortable.  If those NPs can be understood as expressions brought about by system control, then the player's feelings are real and personal.  There are really too many people in the coalition this time, and this hall is usually prepared for players who play dungeons, so it can only accommodate three to five hundred people at the same time. Most of the people entering the hall at this time are still NPs, but I don¡¯t care.  Whether you were entering the hall or outside the hall, the second system prompt sounded in your ears.  System prompt: The expeditionary force has officially entered the Tower of Darkness, and the plot mission "Light and Darkness" has officially started.  Tip: The plot characters who die in this plot mission will die permanently, and everything that happens during this period will be remembered in the history of the game.  Hearing this prompt, the players outside the tower cheered. They don't have to be afraid of death like NPEf, but they can also get their own glory and experience in this operation, so this prompt is definitely for them.  is good news.  But NP is not so optimistic, especially for people like Yi Xuan who have real emotions. This mission also means life and death for them.  All the NPs had solemn expressions flashing across their faces, but only for a flash. Everyone understood that this was their own choice, either for honor, or for the sake of all the creatures in the world, or just for a friend.  Promise, they must complete this plot task today, and they are only allowed to succeed and not fail.  "Okay, everyone just heard it. Our goal is the 99th floor at the top of the tower. The time is tight and the task is heavy. We must divide the work and cooperate." Yi Xuan turned around and shouted loudly and passionately to the people behind him.  "Because there are too many of our coalition forces, it is difficult to display our strength in such a narrow terrain, so I decided to disperse the troops. Our main line is to divide the troops into two groups: the first group, attack from the stairs towards the top of the tower,  The purpose is to consume the number of enemy monsters and contain the enemy's strength. The second route is to operate through the portal. This route is led by me. Our main goal is to attack the top of the tower and organize the resurrection of the Shadow God. Next.  The person named is responsible for leading the team to take the stairs to spawn monsters, the dwarf Kaldir" Yi Xuan assigned the tasks to everyone, deliberately assigning all the people who were not in the same system as him to the farther roads, so that he could ensure that he  One enters the darknessThe top of the tower is on the 99th floor. How long will it take to attack it?  They still have nearly 24 hours. Even if they take the portal and fight monsters, it will probably be enough.  When the dwarf hero heard that he had been assigned to the staircase group, he was obviously very unconvinced, but Edward knew Yi Xuan's final plan. These people were just delaying time, and he would not ruin himself and Yi Xuan because of their dissatisfaction.  The overall plan, so Edward said to him seriously: "In this battle, only the division of labor is different, the honor is the same, you are still fighting to stop the conspiracy of the Shadow Cult." After saying this, he still thought it was not important enough, and then  Added: "As a soldier, you must obey orders. If you join the Holy Light Council, you must obey the orders of the Holy Light Council." The dwarf hero boss was reluctant, but had no choice.  "Okay, let's act quickly." Yi Xuan saw that the most thorny person had been convinced, and immediately said to everyone. As he spoke, he rushed towards the teleportation platform on the second floor, where he could find the path to 99  There was a teleportation shortcut on the second floor, but as soon as he stepped onto the stairs leading to the second floor, a large number of monsters flashed out of the upstairs, and the battle suddenly began.  These monsters seemed to come out of the darkness on their own, filling the gaps around them and getting into a fight with players and NPs. Yi Xuan didn't have the time to waste time with these garbage monsters. He turned towards Yang Kai  He winked, shouted "For justice." and rushed up to the second floor. Yang Kai followed closely behind him. He avoided the monsters if he could. After fighting a few blows, he followed up. The one next to him  The dwarf hero who was dissatisfied just now immediately pulled out his war hammer and roared at a half-beetle monster nearby. The people of the dwarf tribe are very brave and fierce by nature. Once a fight started, they would not care about anything and no longer care about it.  How dissatisfied I am with the tasks assigned to me.  Groups of monsters swarmed up along the way, as dense as a tide, but at this time, Yi Xuan was already different from what he used to be. Not only did he have the attribute bonuses provided by the sixth-level template, but he also had the blood of the first-generation Nephalem.  With the powerful increase in strength, coupled with the top-notch luxury equipment, his combat power was simply off the charts. At this time, he felt that the energy of the Holy Light was like substance in his body. Even without using enhanced skills such as Blood Awakening, his  All abilities have also reached their previous peak stage.  A holy light flashed, and his figure disappeared from the same place. While his body was teleporting, a golden phantom appeared, passing straight through the pile of monsters. When he appeared again, those who passed by were  The monsters were reduced to ashes in the bright holy light.  "Holy shit, what's going on?" Yang Kai, who was following closely behind, was obviously surprised to see Yi Xuan being so fierce, and followed him through the road Yi Xuan opened, "Old Yi, you're too fierce, right?"  ? The blood volume of these monsters is not low, why did you just disappear without taking action? " Yi Xuan looked at his whole body. At this time, his whole body was shrouded in holy light, and his whole body was like a golden god of war, standing in the dark.  It is particularly dazzling among the monsters.  "I don't know, does my holy light have a restraining effect on monsters?" Yi Xuan said hesitantly. At this time, he remembered that when he fought with one of the eight knights of the shadow, the other party summoned  I got a shadow spirit, but this shadow spirit was very afraid of the holy light when Mary appeared. Now it seems that this is definitely not an accident. My own holy light energy seems to be the nemesis of the shadow energy. As long as the energy reaches enough,  It can completely achieve the effect of instant killing.  "But you weren't that powerful with the Holy Light yesterday." Yang Kai was still a little confused. Although it was a good thing for his brother to show his power in battle, if he didn't understand it, he would always feel unsure.  "Yesterday? Oh, I understand." Yi Xuan's heart brightened. It seems that this is because he has strengthened the Nephalem bloodline. Unexpectedly, in addition to the improvement in physical fitness, the energy of the Holy Light has also improved a lot.  , But it was too late to say so much at this time. Yi Xuan saw that a monster had already rushed up. He chopped it down with a saber and said to Yang Kai: "I will tell you in detail when I get back. Now rush up the stairs."  The monsters on the mountain have already started a full-scale battle with the dwarves and the NPs of the alliance. The players who followed, some from the alliance and some from the empire, were so happy when they saw this strange mountain and sea of ??monsters. They rushed towards them and chopped them with knives and axes.  As the battle lines deepened deeper and deeper, there were more and more such contact points, and the battle was in full swing. For a time, the shouts of killing were loud on the first floor of the Tower of Darkness.  Just when Yi Xuan was leading the heroes and players of the Holy Light Council to rush towards the top of the Dark Tower, the ceremony on the top of the Dark Tower was also being carried out nervously. At this moment, this building has never looked like this before.  The top of the tower opened by the player welcomed his first visitors, but the appearance of these visitors was not so comfortable.  In the middle of the top of the tower is a huge platform. The platform is now covered with lines. A five-pointed star pattern is painted with many strange and twisted symbols on the outside. These symbols and lines are connected to form a  A huge magic circle. Surrounding this magic circle, two shadow priests in robes are surrounded by waves of shadow energy.In the middle, they stood at two points of the magic circle at equal distances, forming a circle around the magic circle. And at the center point of the five-pointed star, which is the middle of the magic circle, a man wearing a black robe  The man was standing there. He kept twisting his body, as if he wanted to break free from some restraints, but there was nothing on him except the vague shadow energy.  Those shadow priests muttered words. The pronunciation of these words was weird and short. They sounded like they were singing, but they couldn't connect to any tune.  Their bodies were constantly changing gestures as they recited the incantation. Suddenly, the two priests turned around, faced the person in the circle, prostrated themselves, and raised their hands high above their heads.  They lowered their heads piously, looked at the ground, and kept chanting incantations. They raised their hands high, stood up, and then knelt down repeatedly. Between kneeling down and standing up, they stood up.  A strange atmosphere slowly gathered, but the person they knelt down didn't seem to appreciate it at all. He kept twisting his body, and the veins on his face popped up. After realizing that all these efforts were in vain, he was furious.  Suddenly he shouted at the priests: "Damn it, you bastards, let me out quickly." It wasn't Zhao Beifeng or someone else.  "What? Don't you like the performance I arranged for you?" His expression suddenly changed again, and he said in a completely different tone, "Zhao Beifeng, my most loyal servant, soon,  You can completely fall into my arms." "No," Zhao Beifeng shouted. His body was tightly bound by the magic circle and he could not move at all. The dark shadow energy was spinning and coiling around him.  He touched his vulnerable place and rushed in. Immediately, a chill came from that position. As it continued to invade his body, he felt that his body was being deprived bit by bit.  The Zhao Beifeng at this time is different from the one Yi Xuan saw outside the tower. It seems that he still has his own consciousness now. At least he knows that the ritual in front of him is not a good thing for him, but he obviously did not do it.  Understand exactly why you are where you are today.  He angrily shouted at the shadow priests: "You bastards, I am your master, I am your H6, release me quickly." There was a rage in his heart. To know these shadows  The priests were all his subordinates assigned to him by the system. They used to obey his orders completely, but why did they look different now?  The priests' prayers continued, and the voice in Zhao Beifeng's ear rang again: "Subordinates? You call them subordinates? It's very interesting." Then he seemed to have thought of something, and said with a smile: "But you  You are also my subordinate, I ordered you to stand here, why do you want to resist?" The voice of the Shadow God was full of ridicule.  "No, this is different from what we agreed before." Zhao Beifeng shouted loudly.  "What do you want?" "Oh? Is it different? What did we agree before? Isn't it that I am willing to give you power so that you will not be killed by those players? I have already done it, haven't I? Now  It's your turn to shoulder your responsibilities." "But I never promised you to take possession of me." "Hahahahahahaha." The voice seemed to have heard a wave of laughter.  The most innocent and funny words. After a while, he finally stopped laughing and said coldly: "Then why do you think I want to enter your body?" His words made Zhao Beifeng speechless.  Once upon a time, how could he not understand what this meant? It was just that at that time, he thought that things were under his control, that he could get rid of such a fate with his own intelligence and brains, and even thought that he could eventually  Defeat this so-called god, but why is it like this?  Zhao Beifeng thought silently in his heart, but for the God of Shadows who already shared a body with him, there seemed to be no difference between thinking silently and saying it loudly.  "How do you think things should be? What do you think you are? Do you really think you are some great person? No, no, no, you are just a puppet to me, a chess piece that I can manipulate  , just open your arms to welcome your upcoming destiny. " "No, never." The words of the Shadow God seemed to stab Zhao Beifeng's nerves, causing him to shout suddenly that he wanted to live and survive the end.  He was about to return to the real world during the trial. How could dignified Zhao Beifeng die in such a ghost place? Another wave of shadow power came in, making his soul shake again.  But this time he did not try to seize control of his body. He stopped struggling, closed his eyes, and stood quietly. He had to devote all his energy to keeping himself awake. This belief echoed in his brain:  "Yixuan will come to save me. He will come to save me." "Haha, ridiculous." Although Zhao BeiFeng was only talking to himself, but now he was completely transparent to the God of Shadows. The God of Shadows said with a sneer in his tone: "Do you think a mortal can defeat a god?" "Humph." Zhao Beifeng finally calmed down and sneered.  He said: "Don't worry, he will prevent your resurrection. Have you forgotten? The real core of this game is the players. If you are really resurrected, the players will not be able to fight against you. How can the system give you such an opportunity?"  "Player?" The God of Shadows smiled.  "Then we'll see."
