In the forest, beside the ruined airship
Riel tried to describe what he had seen. “It was too far, and the sky was dark. I couldn’t really see it clearly, but there were many black figures that looked like they were swaying a lot, like a snake. There aren’t many, just about 40 of them I think.”
Link’s heart stirred when he heard this description. He had come across something like this in the game!
In the game, these creatures were called “Agatha Nagas.” They were the slaves of the God of Destruction. The tribe was completely made up of females. They had the body of humans but were soft as snakes; they were soft to the point that it felt like they didn’t have bones. They could contort their bodies in incredible ways, such as turning their heads 360 degrees, turning their bodies over backwards or rotating their limbs in unimaginable ways. They could easily do things that humans would think impossible.
Their bodies were soft and gentle. However, if you underestimated their strength because of that, you would pay a heavy price.
In reality, the Agatha Nagas had bodies as tough as the strongest demons. In front of them, human Warriors were like second-rate trash.
In the game, the Agatha Nagas were most commonly found in the Silversand Islands, located to the southeast of the southernmost kingdom of Doska. They possessed mighty strength and were minimally Level-8. They also dropped valuable loot. Every now and then, a boss-level creature would appear on the island. After players reached Level-11, they frequently ventured to the island to farm for resources.
Seeing the Agatha Nagas appear here, Link’s doubts were washed away. It was no wonder why Akensser could cause the collapse of the magic net and evade the notice of the God of Light. It was because the God of Destruction had a hand in this.
Riel’s news made Franklin extremely anxious. He exclaimed, “Akensser must have brought those things into the city. Nothing good will come out of this; we must stop him!”
He instructed Merlin who was standing next to him. “Go get the musketeers to prepare.”
“Yes, Lord!” Merlin saluted and ran off to complete the task.
However, Link knew that the musketeers would only be sending themselves to their deaths. The Agatha Nagas were extremely fast that they could evade the Yabba musket shots. They could also easily invade the Yabba camps and slaughter them.
Even then, Link did not immediately try to stop the Yabbas. Making use of the time Merlin took to gather the troops, he asked, “Sir, are there guards left in the city?”
“Yes, about 5,000 more musketeers,” Franklin nodded.
Link said, “Akensser probably knows the strength of Lariel City’s defenses. For him to still dare to bring 40 snake people into the city shows that they are definitely not weak.”
Franklin squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment. After a brief period of silence, he said, “We don’t have a choice.”
They truly couldn’t ignore the snake people’s attack. Inside the city, there were still 150,000 Yabbas. They were the hope of the Yabba’s revival, so nothing could be allowed to harm them.
Suddenly, after keeping silent for so long, Elin screamed. “Lord, those are the slaves of the God of Destruction; they will drag our clan to destruction!!!” Elin was trembling visibly. Her face was pale, and she sweated profusely. The future she had seen must have been extremely shocking.
At this point, Franklin no longer dared to ignore the advice. He frowned and asked, “Elin, what do you suggest?”
Elin shook her head in anguish. “I don’t know, I don’t know! My vision says that we will immediately head southwards, but there are still 150,000 people in the city! How can we just abandon them?”
As she spoke, she looked at Link with big pleading eyes. However, she did not speak. Link had already helped them many times. This time, the enemy was simply too dangerous, she didn’t feel it was right to ask him for help again.
At this point, a message appeared in Link’s vision. It was a new mission.
New Mission: Investigation
Description: Return to Lariel City and find out what Akensser, the traitor, is up to.
Mission reward: Void Aura dispelling kit (One-time use)
Awesome! This mission was like delivering coal in the winter, exactly what he needed. Link desperately needed to use his spells. Only with his spells could he turn the situation around.
His spells were the key to creating a miracle!
Link immediately accepted the mission. He inhaled deeply and took a step forward. “Lord Franklin, Lariel’s situation is unclear, and it might be dangerous for you guys. How about letting me go in to investigate first?”
Franklin was stunned. He felt conflicted. He knew that Link had already done plenty for the Yabbas. Now, knowing that the situation was dangerous, Link still volunteered to help them investigate. If they accepted his help, their debt towards him would be very hard to repay.
However, could they say no? He couldn’t.
