Chapter 495: The Courtyard!

Plan?

In the game that year, players didn’t know how long they had been looking or how many methods they had tried to find the last piece.

Players pondered and brainstormed, but couldn’t come up with a solution.

They finally managed to ask about Guardian Fafnir, but in the end, there were no clues.

The person who later found Fafnir simply stumbled upon him accidentally.

Fafnir deliberately avoided them, starting from the moment the teleportation array was activated, from the moment they arrived here.

But no matter what, during the game period, they had a lot of manpower and time, and as long as they searched systematically, they would eventually find it.

However, the current situation is that they don’t have much time or manpower.

Unless…

The people from the local courtyard can be involved.

But the truth is, those guys won’t help Ye Qiu and his friends.

They are the destroyers foretold in the prophecy, who will bring disaster to the world and humanity. They have no reason to help Ye Qiu and his friends.

Even if Ye Qiu and his friends use force to pressure them, these people will at most cooperate on the surface, but do nothing in secret.

Or rather, they will directly confront Ye Qiu and his companions head-on.

There are still many Holy Realms in this world, without myths, but dealing with them is still quite troublesome.

"If you don’t have any better ideas, why not listen to me?"

Ye Qiu turned around, "Do you have a solution?"

Cliff scratched his head, "We won’t know if it’s feasible until we try, but based on my years of experience as an adventurer, no, based on my experience as a former hero, this plan should work."

Ye Qiu stopped and said, "Tell me about it."

"First, I have two plans," Cliff said.

"The first plan is to cause chaos and destruction in Fafnir’s name, spreading his evil reputation far and wide, making the people here hate him, and getting the kingdom to hunt him down!"

"That way, finding him will be easy because everyone will help us search, or we can wait patiently until he is forced out."

"If anyone knows what Fafnir looks like, we will directly extract that person’s memories to narrow down the scope."

"Of course, for safety, we will only spare those who do not see our faces."

"If we can disguise ourselves as dragons, that would be best. If not, we can pretend to be dwarves. Then we will spread Fafnir’s story to let more people know."

"What do you think of this plan?"

Ye Qiu looked at Cliff as his eyebrows furrowed, "Are you really a hero?"

Cliff shrugged, "As you can see, goddess certified."

"But this is just my first idea, I have a second idea, but it’s not very feasible or efficient."

"We could disguise ourselves as travelers from overseas, gather information along the way, and see if we can find someone who knows the inside scoop."

"Of course, this approach would rely on Fafnir having companions or assistance."

"We pretend to be on the same side as them, opposing outsiders together, and then we can act out a few scenes when the time comes."

"Basically, we show them hope, gain their trust, and slowly uncover Fafnir’s whereabouts."

"What do you think?"

Ye Qiu didn’t hesitate, "Let’s go with the first one."

"And I know someone who fits perfectly with your plan."

。。。

Ye Qiu found Chu Du and shared a plan with him. Chu Du grinned and said, "I like this plan."

"I am very good at deceiving people."

"Even if they see it or know the truth, I can still turn everything around."

"So, how should we proceed?"

Cliff suddenly gazed into the deep sea beneath his feet, lost in thoughts.

Ye Qiu glanced at him. Cliff felt the piercing gaze and snapped out of his daze, saying, "Wait, have any of you felt like there is something extraordinary under the sea?"

Chu Du calmly smiled, "I probably know what you mean. Don’t be surprised, it’s just a snake."

"Are you sure?" Cliff asked, puzzled.

For some reason, he felt a strange heartbeat under the deep sea.

There is a huge monster under the sea, so big that it’s hard to imagine.

"The Serpent in the Courtyard, Jormungandr."

"Do you know how this name came about?"

Chu Du looked out at the endless sea and said, "Each time Jormungandr sheds its skin, it becomes even larger, or you can say its body grows."

"His growth has no limit. After countless sheddings, his size has become massive beyond measure."

"He lurks deep under the sea, until one day, he suddenly sees his own tail at the other end of the ocean."

"Yes, Jormungandr’s size has become so huge that it can encircle the entire ocean outside the courtyard. That is the origin of the Serpent in the Courtyard."

"But don’t worry, he has been sealed since the Twilight of the Gods, along with his siblings."

"He can’t move until we unlock the seal."

Cliff took a deep breath, "Well, that’s good. If I had faced this thing back then, I would have thrown the sacred sword into the sea and told the goddess to let the hero deal with it."

Ye Qiu looked at Cliff, "So, the Dark Lord is weak?"

Cliff shook his head, "If the Dark Lord were weak, he wouldn’t dare to challenge the world all by himself."

"He’s really powerful… I was just too young back then, and compared to me, who knew nothing about magic, he was way ahead of me."

"Your companion, Fang Ze, can control six types of magic, all of them at the Holy Domain Level, right?"

"But compared to the Dark Lord Xiulura, what does that amount to?"

"He also excels in nine factions of divine magic and even created his own Abyss magic. He is the only Master of Magic who has reached the mythical realm after the Twilight of the Gods!"

"If it weren’t for God King Kaxius stepping in, I would never have known if I had any chance to fight him."

"I used to be arrogant and thought the Holy Domain Realm was nothing."

Cliff shrugged and said, "Oh, I realized the truth long ago, so any setbacks are just a piece of cake for me."

Chu Du counted on his fingers, "So, are you done reflecting?"

"Done reflecting, should we take action now?"

。。。

In the courtyard.

Inside a city-state.

Cliff held a book in a bookstore, his eyes gleaming, "Wow, this is so exciting."

Ye Qiu walked by his side with a puzzled look, "That’s enough, you won’t gain anything from reading it anyway."

Cliff reluctantly put down the book in his hands. "I am…no, can’t I finish reading it?"

"How about we target a different city? The culture in this city is so rich, it would be a shame to destroy it, don’t you think?"

Chu Du clapped his hands. "Enough chatter, everyone, the dragon is about to descend from the sky."

Boom!!
