In this commotion, all the players knew very well where they should be and what they needed to do and obtain. Because of Su Chen, they had long begun to plan.
In theory, although the imperial city Lavis could only be activated after the third stage of the mission was completed, as long as the players were willing, they could take the shortest mission route to arrive there quickly. However, they would lose many important rewards and resources, making it inconvenient for mid-stage development. Of course, these could all be resolved as long as they spent enough money.
Therefore, many players were already considering giving up these resources and participating in this huge matter as quickly as possible. After all, once they quickly approached Su Chen, they might be able to obtain greater benefits. In that case, their previous losses would not be affected.
Of course, it was not that easy. In order to reach this condition, they had to experience some setbacks, especially in a situation where they lacked equipment and resources. It was even a problem for them to safely pass the second stage. Only those true experts and large guilds could participate.
Because of this, a screening had undoubtedly been made. It was a screening made for the unrest and the players. This unrest would also become even more confusing as the players joined.
Su Chen was still completely unaware of all of this. Perhaps even he did not expect to play such an important role in this chaos in the future.
…
Back at Su Chen's side…
At this moment, the carriage he and Lilith were in had already arrived at the foot of the imperial city, 500 meters away.
"Alright, we're safe here."
"You can also open the curtains and enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window."
Lilith blinked her big eyes and smiled.
She still remembered Su Chen's disappointed expression just now. However, there would be no more assassins at the foot of the imperial city. Therefore, she got Su Chen to pull open the curtains to change his mood.
Hearing this, Su Chen also followed Lilith's instructions and pulled open the curtains. Along the way, he had been looking at the interiors of the carriage the entire time. It was only natural for his eyes to become tired. Moreover, it was also necessary for him to recognize the entrance gate of the imperial city.
"Finally. Are we finally going to see what the main city gate looks like? I'm looking forward to it!"
"I have to say that Lilith is really kind. A cruel and heartless vampire actually cares so much about Su Chen. It can be seen that their relationship is indeed not ordinary."
"I don't know what your impression of the vampires is, but they might not be really cruel. I think Lilith is really nice. She's too cute."
"I'm here to see the gate of the main city, not to watch them act all lovey-dovey!"
"…"
The audience was extremely excited now. This was the main city, Lavis. This was where all the players wanted to go the most in the current version of the game. It was also the center of all the chaos. How could they not want to see it?
Moreover, if they had a good understanding of the main city in advance, they would not get lost, right?
The curtains were pulled open again.
What entered Su Chen's sight was a towering wall. Although it was called a wall, it was as smooth as a pearl and even emitted a faint luster. It was completely white and felt very elegant. The wall stretched to the end of Su Chen's sight. It was as if a huge white snake was coiling around the main city, firmly protecting everything in the city.
The city wall of the main city was eight meters tall. There was a light blue floating ball every three meters. It was unknown what it was used for, but it was most likely some kind of magical defensive measure.
At the main entrance were double doors that even the three giants could easily enter if they walked side by side. One could feel the sturdiness just by looking at it.
Behind the city wall, many buildings could vaguely be seen. Almost all of them were white. In particular, in the farthest distance, a white tower-shaped building was currently emitting a faint white light. This light was very strange and looked as if it was corporeal, enveloping the entire main city. Just by looking at a corner of this main city, one could imagine how huge the main city, Lavis, was.
In Su Chen's opinion, the architecture here had both the magical elements of the buildings in anime and the architectural style of the real medieval era. Especially with the enhancement of the magical elements, it made the entire building filled with psychedelic colors. It was more or less different from the main city he had imagined and was very shocking.
At this moment, the audience also followed the live-stream camera and saw the silhouette of the main city for the first time. Just this corner was enough to give them an absolute shock.
"I've previously imagined thousands of versions of this city, but I definitely didn't expect such a magical city. I really like it!"
"Shocking! Is this the main city? After staying in the village for a long time, I thought that all the buildings were in the style of the village. This is a freaking fantasy world!!"
"This is definitely a brilliant design. The host has given me the motivation to go to the main city. I've been rewarded!!"
First impressions were very important. It was just like how the current players could clearly sense that darkness of the village after entering the game. Compared to the current grand main city, it was completely different. At this moment, the main city, Lavis, brought a powerful impact that left a deep impression on the players.
This was a sign of yearning!
The players were even more eager now.
The target was the main city, Lavis.
…
At this moment, Su Chen was deeply attracted to Lavis.
The corner of Lilith's mouth curled up slightly.
Then, she got up and sat beside Su Chen. She smiled and said, "Indeed, no matter how many times I look at the main city, Lavis, it still gives me a very shocking feeling.
"It's not like the main city of the Blood Race, which is dark and oppressive. Unless there's something important that needs to be done, I don't even want to return."
She could sense Su Chen's shock at this moment. This feeling was just like the first time she and Reina met in vampire territory. They were both deeply attracted to each other. Moreover, the main city, Lavis, represented a bright future. Everything here was incomparably shocking!
Hearing Lilith speak, Su Chen nodded silently.
"Is this the stage for my upcoming performance?
"Behind such magnificence lies a terrifying danger…"
No one knew that at this moment, Su Chen was retreating in his heart just because he saw the appearance of the main city. He did not have any ability or combat strength. He was not even the Reina that Lilith knew. Could he really do something by rashly joining this chaos?
Perhaps he should say now that he was not Reina and turn around to leave after apologizing to the other party. In this way, he would not die in this chaos that had nothing to do with him.
The reason why Su Chen thought this way was because the image of the main city in front of him, Lavis and the image of the assassin just now kept alternating in Su Chen's mind. He knew that the two were inextricably linked. Continuing to accompany Lilith meant that he would have to take a high risk while enjoying himself.
If he did not say it now, he would clearly not have a second chance. He was just an ordinary person. Although he was a transmigrator, he did not have any ability. Moreover, he was not obligated to take these risks with Lilith.
Thinking of this, Su Chen turned around and looked at Lilith seriously, planning to explain everything.
However, at this moment, a furious roar that trembled the air sounded from outside the window!! Even the glass on the carriage creaked!
"Roar!!"
The roar caused the ground to tremble! A deep and invisible rift immediately opened in the ground!
Immediately after, an earth dragon wrapped in heavy rocks quickly appeared from the crack in the ground.
When everyone was caught off guard, it used its thick forearm to smash the carriage!
Boom!
An explosion sounded, and the carriage was instantly shattered!
"Damn! What's going on?! earth dragon?!"
