599: Chapter 579: Desperate Situation 599: Chapter 579: Desperate Situation “If only ow was here.”
At this mont, Lu Ping’an misses the increasingly useful, all-purpose ow.
If she was here, this kind of petty theft would be stable and professional.
The only issue is that she might be killed by the “riddles”.
Not only is the current “Trading Land” beyond the range of the ancient city area, but even if it were within the area, Lu Ping’an would still be unable to enter another “world”.
People from outside the “world” cannot enter the Trading Land directly.
Before leaving the ancient city area, Lu Ping’an expelled all the traders.
Now, only the “workers” are busy in the Trading Land…
the people of the ancient city are getting more and more used to the frequent “downti” of the Trading Land.
“What a pity…” At this ti, the “Reception Room” rule building in Lu Ping’an’s courtyard is actually quite useful.
If there were no local rule restrictions, it would have the function of remotely pulling people in.
If he had brought “clients” into the Secret Realm, he could have considered using the remote login function of the Reception Room by paying points to summon them as assistants.
Now, he is indeed in a reality where no one is available to help…
“Is there anyone in the courtyard who can fight?”
“Do you want the royal siblings?”
“…Uh, are they useful?”
There are also so special residents in the courtyard who haven’t yet decided to go out.
In terms of strength, the three divine siblings of the royal family are not bad at all.
But the three royal siblings have very little combat experience, so they may not survive such a chaotic battlefield.
Lu Ping’an’s extrely impolite words are actually justified.
They mainly depend on their natural talents to make a living.
The two supernatural abilities of the Shield of Glory and Crown Spear are the most top-tier rare abilities in the Silent Mountain Range.
However, after coming to Earth, these two abilities have weakened significantly.
It’s not only about the decrease in strength, but the more deadly issue is that they have beco “non-existent” on Earth…
In the rules of Earth’s gods, there are no rules about the Crown of Honor, and these two rare abilities have lost the support of the “Great Source.” Relying solely on the user’s small source, their “priority” can be said to have slipped directly from the rule-level to the cursed-level of Black Iron.
Of course, this does not an they are worthless.
They are still two excellent offensive and defensive thods, but the Shield of Glory can no longer isolate everything like a BUG, instead becoming a firm shield that can be broken, while the Crown Spear’s will-enhancing power attribute not only has limits but also loses its cheating privilege of being invincible.
In this situation, the three siblings, who have lost their strongest ans of protection, have no reason to venture into the world on their own.
“…Yaxi is a Moon Goddess Knight.”
“So what?
Oh, you an Moon Goddess Knights have spatial abilities?”
“No, I an she’s a knight and a mber of the royal family, so her equipnt is very good, extrely good.”
“…Ask her if she’s willing to help.”
Yaxi, the Moon Goddess Knight, is a Decree-level strongman.
Although her strength has weakened in various aspects compared to her original world, her ability is still in line with the Moon God, who is also one of the Earth Gods.
Most importantly, Lu Ping’an envies her equipnt.
A few minutes later, the silver-helted female knight appears before Lu Ping’an.
Her long sword and shield shimr and glow like a mirror.
Standing there, illusions appear around her, which is a permanent Moon Shadow Blessing.
“Moon Illusion Armor (Truth-level)”, “Moon God’s Blessed Sword Shield”, and the equipnt Yaxi shows off as a princess help increase her combat power imnsely.
The full-cover silver armor, resembling animated armor, also allows Lu Ping’an to deceive others by using her as a “Summoning”.
“Your Excellency, is this the prey that Princess Chris ntioned?”
The Moon Goddess Princess, who is addicted to movies, is also an experienced warrior and quickly understands the current situation.
Compared to her “desireless and ambitious” relatives, the well-bred Yaxi is more sensible and aware of the hardships of living under soone else’s roof.
She is also looking for a way out for herself and her family.
Helping Lu Ping’an is a wise choice under the current circumstances.
The gold and silver mountains will run out one day, and they need to find new jobs and social identities.
“….I have a way to safely approach that monster and unleash a curse, but the cursed object might be left in the monster’s hands, and once it gets the prompt from the Sound of Rules, it might break the curse instantly….”
After contemplating for a while, Yaxi provided an unreliable answer.
But Lu Ping’an pondered for a mont and laughed.
Maybe he could accomplish the remaining part himself.
“…..Wait a mont, I will co up with a plan, maybe we need a little help…..”

Shi Taohua, the “Seal Carver,” was in a rather agitated mood.
As a fourth-tier Decree-level old stager, he had at least twenty years of combat experience and enjoyed a decent reputation in the ancient city.
However, he, as a warrior, was forced to beco the commander-in-chief due to his past fa.
He perford well, at least in the eyes of his temporary subordinates.
His command was seasoned and careful…not letting the newcors be cannon fodder, nor overburdening the veterans.
In such a situation, the conservative strategy of preserving every combat force was the best to implent…before facing desperate situations, it was impossible for the self-sufficient teams to make aningless charges.
Shi Taohua beca increasingly numb.
While his soldiers and generals prioritized signing up, driven by their enemies who showed no fear in facing death, they were forced to trade ti for space.
As a result, they gradually ended up in the desperate situation on the 24th floor.
The passage leading upwards was half destroyed, and the remaining half was held by the local stone-lizard group.
A fight to the death?
Everyone knew that waiting for reinforcents was the key to victory.
Nobody would accept orders to fight to the death against infinite Magic Monsters.
The fact that Shi Taohua persisted till this point with only a conservative approach was quite remarkable.
In most cases, he and his team had to confront the enemies directly…
“Peach, Ake…” As a result, his old team mbers and friends, one Decree-level and one third-tier, had turned into stone statues.
The stone statues were retrieved by him and his brothers after a fierce battle, but there was no antipetrification elixir available from Magic Alchemists.
Ti was running out, and the life of the petrified beca increasingly fragile.
“They can’t hold on for much longer….”
Seventy-two hours deadline?
A petrified person’s death would arrive sooner, especially for those unlucky ones who had suffered from partial petrification and had neither a high nor low resistance.
Half his brother’s body was shattered, the other half still flesh and blood.
Even if the Healer tried his best to save him, the most optimistic estimate gave him no more than thirty minutes to live.
Perhaps their team hadn’t reached a dead end, but so individuals within the team were already in despair.
At this mont, however, he had to be patient and wait…He knew that the core material of the petrification elixir and the antipetrification elixir was the sa thing, and the current Mother of Stone-dragons was the best “antidote.”
But Shi Taohua knew better that even if he ordered everyone to launch a fierce attack, people would only follow if there was a winning or significant chance of victory…
No, the reason doesn’t matter; the result is what matters.
If there’s no chance of success or great achievents, no one will follow.
If he uses the temporary BOSS’s na to enforce the battle?
They would only silently retreat, then the team would scatter, and the chance to save his brother and wife would be even less.
He knew that, at this ti, he must unite all forces to have the possibility of saving his friends.
But as others prepared to buy ti, he could no longer see hope…
At this ti, a teammate ca up with a feathered arrow in hand and a puzzled expression on his face.
“This is for you.”
The envelope hanging behind the feathered arrow was old-fashioned but practical.
Shi Taohua couldn’t refuse once he opened the first page of the letter.
“…Commander over there, I have a plan that can help you escape.
With good luck, we can directly eliminate that Stone Dragon….”
