Queen Louise immediately showed joy, and nodded to His Majesty Kiel: "Thank you for your trust!"

"No, I'm going back to rest!"

His Majesty Keir stood up, put on a weak look, staggered and said: "Lord Howard, quickly help me back to the bedroom, and call the old witch doctor for me, I think I have to stay in bed for a few days. "

Howard immediately came over to help His Majesty Keir leave the hall, and his sarcastic voice came from a distance: "Queen Louise, I wish you and the brave men you recruited can defeat the enemy, hehehe!"

"Hmph! Damn thing!"

Queen Louise stared at Howard's back with hatred, and cursed secretly.

Turning her head, she looked at Zhang Ze and the others, with majesty on her face, and said: "You brave men, I think that if you dare to come here, you should have real talents and learning, rather than bluffing and deceiving, am I right?"

"That's right, Your Lady Queen!"

Zhang Ze responded loudly in the crowd, saying: "We can help you drive away the invading enemies, but..."

He changed the subject and said: "We just came back from other places, and we don't know much about the current situation. I hope Her Majesty the Queen can explain it clearly so that we can be mentally prepared."

"Can."

Queen Louise nodded. She picked up the corner of her skirt and walked off the throne, stood in front of Zhang Ze and the others and said slowly, "This is how it happened."

"Three months ago, a group of strange enemies suddenly appeared around our Altera Kingdom. They looked weird, acted cruelly, and killed anyone they saw!"

"According to the national report, these weirdos call themselves 'players', and what tasks they say they want to accomplish is simply unbelievable!"

"What's even weirder is that these players can be resurrected infinitely! No matter how many times my soldiers kill them, they can still survive and continue to fight. Oh, holy devil, they are simply undead from hell!"

When Queen Louise said this, she had a look of fear on her face.

Zhang Ze's brows furrowed immediately. He was too familiar with the word player. Anyone who played online games knew its meaning.

But... this is the Demon Realm! How could there be players? Where do these players come from? Is it like them, from the real world?

A series of questions echoed in Zhang Ze's mind. He shook his head and continued to listen to Queen Louise's narration.

"Our army couldn't kill these players, and their morale dropped severely. In the end, they were beaten to the ground, and several territories were occupied by players."

Queen Louise sighed, and said: "I once sent people to negotiate with those players, but they killed them too. These hateful guys don't want to negotiate at all, they just want to kill!"

"His Majesty Kiel is a kind-hearted king. In order to avoid the loss of life caused by the war, he evacuated the citizens who lost their homes to the capital of the kingdom, but this is not the way to go. Those players will destroy our country sooner or later!"

"So, I ordered people to issue an announcement to recruit capable people and brave folks to fight against these vicious players and save the Kingdom of Altera!"

Raising his hand without moving his knife, he raised his hand and asked, "My lord queen, I want to ask, do you know where those players came from?"

Zhang Ze was also about to ask this question, and Queen Louise replied, "According to the scouts, they came out of a huge purple crystal, but I don't know where the crystal came from. "

"Those players have a very close relationship with this crystal. Scouts have seen them gather around the crystal to obtain supplies many times, and they also said that they can receive quests from it..."

Liu Yueying asked curiously: "Then you didn't think of a way to destroy the crystal?"

"I've tried all the methods, but they can't be destroyed." Queen Louise shook her head and said helplessly, "Whether it's swords or magic, attacks on crystals have no effect."

"Moreover, those players are often surrounded by the crystal, and it is difficult for us to attack. Every time we dispatch, there will be heavy casualties. The most important thing is that the crystal cannot be destroyed, so we can only give up in the end."

"How about it? Braves, are you willing to help the kingdom defend the land and drive away the invaders?"

Seeing Queen Louise's expectant eyes, everyone agreed on the spot without hesitation.

Because they just received a system prompt: "Complete Queen Louise's mission and get the key to pass the level."

"very good!"

Queen Louise was overjoyed, and she immediately ordered someone to bring a cooperation agreement for Zhang Ze and others to sign, and at the same time issued a letter of appointment to them.

"There is nothing wrong with the cooperation agreement, it can be signed."

Moving the knife, he looked up and down without emotion, and nodded to everyone, so everyone signed with confidence.

"I, Louise Moore, appoint you as commissioners of the kingdom to serve as consuls in the local area."

Louise pinned a purple medal that symbolized identity and status on the clothes of Zhang Ze and others, and said solemnly: "I hope that the consuls will live up to everyone's expectations, complete your mission, and drive the enemy out of our kingdom!"

"Yes, Your Lady Queen."

Zhang Ze and the others also responded in response, since they came here, they should do as the Romans do and play their roles well.

Louise is a vigorous woman, she immediately arranged flying beasts for Zhang Ze and others, and let them go to their respective territories to take office.

With the Queen's expectations in mind, Zhang Ze and others left the palace and headed to the Feiying Station under the leadership of the attendants.

Everyone on the road looked at their respective commissions and talked a lot.

"Giant God, where did the Queen send you?" Yiye Zhiqiu asked curiously.

The Giant God glanced at the letter of appointment and said, "Nightmare Canyon... this place name sounds really scary."

"Yueying, sister, where are you two going to work?" Zhang Ze looked at Liu Yueying and Zhang Feng.

Liu Yueying said: "Storm Town, it sounds like a normal place."

"I don't feel very good about the place I went to." Zhang Feng said with a bitter face: "The Fortress of Sin, isn't it full of criminals? I'm a little scared!"

"Don't be afraid, come to me if you have any difficulties, and I will help you." Zhang Ze comforted.

"I have a question." Sky's melancholy asked with doubts: "According to what Queen Louise said, we are going to face gamers this time. These guys can be resurrected infinitely, and they can't be killed at all. How do we accomplish this?" Her mission?"

He moved his knife and squeezed his chin emotionally, and analyzed: "The game players must not be killed, and they can only find a way from those amethysts. Normally, as long as the amethysts are destroyed, the players will never be able to appear again, once and for all. "

Xiao Niao Yiren frowned and said, "But, didn't the queen say that amethyst cannot be destroyed..."

"No, I think it can be destroyed." Zhang Ze narrowed his eyes and said, "We are adventurers, unlike the people in the Kingdom of Altera, they can't do anything, maybe we can do it."

"Of course, it will depend on the specific situation at that time."

Moonlight Bunny asked curiously: "You said, do those so-called players come from the real world like us?"

"I'm not sure if they came from the real world, but they must not be from this world." Yiye Zhiqiu said: "I'm curious, who brought these players here? What's his purpose?"

The irritable Dragon King snorted and said, "Anyway, he's not a good person! If you catch him, just hand it over to the queen and let her deal with it."

"So, is our mission this time to catch the mastermind? Or drive away those players?" Little Princess Qian was a little confused: "How can we complete the mission?"

Zhang Ze shrugged and said, "I don't think there is any conflict between these two things. You can complete either one. Don't think too much about it. When things come to fruition, the system will naturally remind us that the task is completed."

"Yes, the first priority now is to protect our territory and not let it be occupied by players." The Giant God looked forward and said, "It seems that there is a flying station in front of us. We are about to separate soon. Let's work hard!"

Zhang Ze looked at the flying station. It was a huge stone tower hundreds of meters high. Eight stone platforms extended from the top of the stone tower, like the runway of an airplane. A dozen monsters flew around the stone tower. They looked similar to lions, but they were longer. The wings of a flying bird look as if two animals were stitched together.

"My lords, the queen has arranged flying beasts for you, please sit on them."

The administrator of the flying station bowed respectfully to the giant **** and the others, and then led them to sit on their respective flying beasts.

"The journey is long, and the flight time may take several hours. You can sit on the flying beast and rest. As long as you fasten your seat belts, you won't fall off." While helping them check the seat belts, the administrator said: "Wait for you Rest well, and the destination will be reached."

Seeing that Zhang Ze was still on the spot and didn't get on the flying beast, Zhang Feng asked strangely, "Brother, why don't you come up?"

"You go first, I'm going to repair my weapon." Zhang Ze waved to her, and then watched the flying beast fly away with everyone.

Leaving the 43rd floor of the Demon Realm, Zhang Ze went directly to the 10th Floor of the Demon Realm to find the blacksmith.

The blacksmith's small camp was still busy, and the waiting people lined up in a long queue. Zhang Ze thought for a while, then walked directly to the frontmost adventurer, and said, "Brother, can you give me your place? Thank you!"

The other party was about to swear, when he suddenly found the ID above Zhang Ze's head, he was startled: "Raksha? Are you really a summoner?"

"It's genuine." Zhang Ze nodded and smiled, and summoned the vampire count to prove his identity.

"No problem!" The adventurer immediately gave up his seat, his face full of excitement: "Well, great god, can I take a photo with you?"

Zhang Ze fulfilled his request, watching him laugh excitedly, the adventurers behind looked envious and jealous.

Walking into the camp, the blacksmith looked up and saw Zhang Ze, and said, "Young man, I remember you, last time you forged a dagger here, right?"

Seeing Zhang Ze nodding, the blacksmith smiled and said, "Hehe, it seems my memory is not bad. Did you come to me this time to build a new weapon?"

"No." Zhang Ze handed the broken [Blood Dragon] to the blacksmith, and said, "I want you to fix it."

"This is... an SSSS-level artifact!"

The blacksmith's eyes widened suddenly, but his brows frowned immediately: "It's broken like this... Sigh, it's hard to repair, unless there are high-grade materials..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Ze took out Xiao Longnu's [Dragon Horn] and asked, "Can you see this?"

"My God!"

The blacksmith was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He pointed at the [Dragon Horn] tremblingly and asked, "Young man, have you slaughtered a dragon? There is such a thing!"

"No." Zhang Ze shook his head and said, "This was given to me by a friend of the Dragon Clan."

"A gift from a friend of the Dragon Clan? So, this is a molted dragon horn?" The blacksmith was still shocked, and said, "Do you know how precious a dragon horn is? For the Dragon Clan, dragon horns only grow twice in a lifetime."

"One time is during the coming-of-age ceremony. The juvenile dragon's horn will shed and a new adult dragon's horn will grow. After that, this dragon's horn will accompany the dragon for life. The dragon's horn will only fall off when it dies."

"And the juvenile dragon horns that have been shed are carefully collected, and it is of great significance."

"If a female dragon gives away the dragon horn, it means that the other party is her favorite."

"If it's a male dragon who sends a dragon horn, it means he wants to sworn brothers with him as life and death brothers."

The blacksmith looked at Zhang Ze and asked curiously, "Little brother, is the dragon who gave you the dragon horn a male or a female?"

"Eh..." Zhang Ze was a little embarrassed, so he could only perfunctoryly say, "I can't reveal my friend's identity, sorry."

The old blacksmith suddenly showed an expression of "I understand", gave Zhang Ze a thumbs up, and boasted, "Young man is very skilled!"

"Ahem, can my weapon be repaired?" Zhang Ze asked, changing the subject.

"Yes!" The old blacksmith took off his coat again, revealing his muscular body. Every time he was going to do a big job, he always put on this look.

"But I want to declare in advance that even if I fix it, its quality will drop by one level."

Zhang Ze was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked: "Down by one level? Why?"

"If the weapon is broken, it will be downgraded if it is repaired. This is the rule." The old blacksmith said regretfully: "So, you should cherish your weapon at ordinary times, and don't wait for it to be broken before thinking about repairing it. There is no medicine for regret in the world."

Zhang Ze sighed helplessly, and said, "I don't want it to break either, but... oh."

[Blood Dragon] was destroyed because the souls of the four dragon kings left, and Zhang Ze could do nothing about it.

"If you're okay with it, I'll start fixing it right now."

With Zhang Ze's permission, the old blacksmith picked up the hammer and smashed it heavily on the [Dragon Horn].

Immediately, [Dragon Horn] turned into a pile of shiny pieces, and was poured into a crucible by the blacksmith, and roasted on the fire...

Zhang Ze has been watching from the sidelines, watching every movement and every step of the blacksmith.

He prayed in his heart that the repaired [Blood Dragon] attribute would not be too rubbish.

About 30 minutes later, a special effect sound came, and the blacksmith announced: "The repair is successful!"

Zhang Ze hurried forward, took the newly restored [Blood Dragon] from the blacksmith, and checked its attributes nervously.

【Blood Dragon】

Special Effect 1: Deal 1 damage to a target, get 1 Dragon Star, and accumulate up to 10 Stars.

Special Effect 3: Release 10 Dragon Stars~lightnovelpub.net~ to get [Sifang Holy Shield], which can absorb 4 million damage.

…

"From SSSS-level artifact quality, it has dropped to SSS-level quality, and there is one less special effect..."

Zhang Ze curled his lips and said to himself, "However, the other attributes have not changed, so it's a blessing in misfortune."

After paying the blacksmith a large maintenance fee, Zhang Ze left the camp and stood on the altar, looking at the list of demon domains in his vision, lost in thought.

"Taking advantage of this opportunity, why don't you go for a walk in various demon realms, collect followers, and fill up my summoning space."

"So, which boss should I conquer first?"

…
