Chapter 370: In the Cracks, Searching for the Light (1)
Looking at the injury in Glori's left abdomen, Fiona was puzzled. Fiona knew that grabbing the oncoming dagger would be a breeze for Glori. After all, Fiona's behind-the-back attack was accurately intercepted by Glori once.
"Why didn't you dodge?" asked Fiona.
"I'm fine. However, you need to know that the bloody phoenix can be reborn. ”
Blinking her head towards the door, Glori pulled Fiona straight down the hallway. It's just that, under the influence of Phoenix's magic, the destruction of the church is amazingly fast. Even the rock-made walls are starting to crumble. Even, the rocks are burning.
With both hands on his sword and a side slash, Glori tore through the ups and downs that piled up at the top of the staircase. Glori was surprisingly calm. As if, Glori didn't remember being injured at all, and he wasn't worried that the church was collapsing. Steady as usual, and with Fiona jumping over the burning rock pile, Glori sent a looking back smile.
"Did you see? We've been on a rough road. If we keep hiding, we can only watch the road be flooded with flames. Since you can't go back, you can't hide, why don't you take a step forward? Are you sure, do you see the way?"
"I see it clearly. And, that's a path of flames. ”
Fiona was not nodding, she was shaking her head.
Fiona didn't understand why a poor civilian could have such a confident smile. Even, Fiona didn't understand why Blue Star had to save a person who was facing each other with a white blade.
Glori didn't answer Fiona's questions.
It wasn't until he reached the east end of the corridor on the first floor that Glori smiled, "I remember you looking at me in doubt. The questions in your mind can only be answered by yourself. I'm not a mentor or anything like that. What gave me a headache was that I was looking for someone to find became a mystery. And now, you've got to do what I say. You can go to the East Quarter of Honor City, at the widest intersection, there is a hotel. If you can't do it, you just wait for me at the hotel. ”
With that, Glori sent Fiona out of the window. Glori, on the other hand, ran to the south room without looking back.
If you don't go to Phoenix for a while, then Glori will have to wait to be found. In short, Glori could no longer hide in the burning church. It's strange enough to say that a church doesn't have a storeroom. If there was a storage room, Glori would be able to hide with Fiona for the night and wait until dawn before leaving.
Since you can't hide, you can only go out and try it. Glori, he didn't want to put up with the heat in the church. Jumping through the window and stepping on the shattered glass, Glori returned to the gravel path of the courtyard.
The whole courtyard, in the scorching, looks bright. Therefore, it can be regarded as fulfilling Glori's wishes. Standing in the courtyard and looking around, Glori was expecting Phoenix to come to him.
In order to make himself more conspicuous, Glorius simply shouted, "Phoenix, where are you hiding? Now, how did you become one of the people who escaped?"
Blue Star, what are you doing?
Thinking that Glori would run away, Luna has been looking forward to seeing the joke. So, along with Dragon, Luna landed on the treetops as a crow. If you look down a bit, you can see Glori yelling around.
"My dear brother, things seem to be getting interesting. I'm wondering what Glori wants to do against Phoenix!"
"Deal with? He can't beat Phoenix. Unless, he comes to us. Dragon sang along, but knew it. So, he glanced at Glori again.
"Hey, boy, the person you're looking for is under that towering tree!" said Dragon flapping his steel wings and pointing to Glori.
"Okay. Luna, your brother is so kinder than you are. ”
Actually, out of luck, Glori didn't want to see Phoenix waiting. After all, one more thing is better than one less thing. Come on, Dragon is such a warm-hearted person. After that, Glori walked along the gravel path to the entrance of the courtyard.
At the door, no one else had passed. Glori didn't expect those rune church believers to run faster than rabbits. Phoenix, on the other hand, did not embarrass those believers.
In order to make himself look imposing, Glori simply leaned on the edge of the iron door. Pointing to the tallest pine tree in front of the woods, Glori laughed and shouted.
"Hey, Phoenix. You say, who of us is the bloody phoenix?"
"Blood Phoenix, I see, it must be you. Because, you're bleeding, and you're just coming out of the flames! Perhaps Firethorn isn't your match anymore!And I'm just a crowd of onlookers!" Phoenix laughed and replied to Glori.
And the three believers behind Phoenix also began to laugh. It's just that the three believers don't know that Phoenix's smile is praising Glori for being brave. As a result, the laughter of the three became more and more mean, and it turned into ridicule.
"Look, Lord Phoenix, the guy we're going to destroy has gotten stupid because he's been stimulated!"
"No, it's a blue star. ”
Phoenix hurriedly corrected. Unhurriedly taking two steps forward, Phoenix left the pine tree behind him and looked at Glory with the help of the flickering firelight above the church.
A guy who is bleeding and doesn't even plan to run away?
What is Blue Star's idea?
Phoenix kept a kind face as he walked towards Glori. However, every step is accompanied by the sound of a clear heartbeat. The footsteps are indeed steady, and they can be regarded as Phoenix trying their best to cover up. And the three believers of the Knight Church also believe in Phoenix's strength very much, if Phoenix wants the life of the blue star, it may be in three rounds of battle.
Although arrogance requires a certain amount of capital support, Phoenix has a hint of hesitation. Gradually, with each step, Phoenix felt that Glori's smile became more and more eerie.
"Look, Phoenix...... Was that a fight, or a threat? I don't think it's good for you to use a fireworks show to scare people. Now, what did you get? You just saw me get somebody stabbed in the stab. You should know that this injury is nothing to me at all. Even, now I can fight with you. Perhaps, during this time, we will have to have a late night snack and a drink. I've heard that the metropolis of Honor has a lot of delicious food. ”
Glori spoke, more and more relaxed. Moreover, the smile on his face is simply saying hello to Phoenix. Even, to a certain extent, it has become more and more a threat to Phoenix.
However, it was not as simple as Glori thought. Phoenix, still coming this way, and not stopping. The crushed rubble, and Phoenix's laughter, were telling Glori not to let up for a moment. Perhaps, Phoenix is about to use magic.
"Hey, you come closer. ”
Glori simply urged Phoenix. Raising the corner of his mouth on the right side, Glori's gaze flickered. It was a terrible horror that mingled with the darkness beneath the walls. It's as if Glori was saying, "Come here, a few more steps and you'll be in the trap!"
Stopping abruptly, Phoenix laughed.
"I don't know what you're up to, but I know you're the blue star. A mortal who can save the Kingdom of Shennuo has a certain ability. After all, there was no shortage of court battles in that battle. Ever since I became the head of the Knights' Church, I have been dealing with powerful nobles on a daily basis. I know what is hidden in the darkness under the light. Perhaps, I underestimated you. ”
"Phoenix, you're right. Even the King of Shennuo knows how to detoxify and the like. After all, in the court, there were people who liked to play insidious means. If you are a king and don't know how to deal with it, you really can't! Even, a silver ring was born to deal with trouble. ”
"And, I've seen people pit me with a dream potion. That potion is colorless and odorless, you should know it. ”
Glori gave a supplement. The intention is not to make Phoenix more careful. Instead, tell Phoenix directly about the trap under the shadows, and it is not something that can be seen clearly casually.
In fact, Glori didn't prepare any poison at all, nor did he prepare any traps to pit Phoenix. After all, Glori loves justice. At this point, Glori just gave Phoenix a psychological attack. Hoping that Phoenix would compromise, that he would get out safely, and then that Fiona would get a new life, that Glori would not allow himself to make mistakes.
Just like the rough roads Glorry has walked in the past.
Sometimes, in order to survive, you have to struggle in the slits, and that's the reality. And the path of flame that I stepped on with Fiona not long ago can be regarded as an effort to find hope in the slits.
Glancing at Phoenix with disdain without nervousness, Glori couldn't help himself worry about whether Fiona had left the woods and had found the wide path to the City of Honor. Glori knew that the slightest hesitation or a different look could make Phoenix push a flame.
Well, you have to find something.
"Phoenix, have you heard of Sidney?"
"Sidney?Blue Star, do you know him?"
"Yes, I know him, and we've been at the Miracle Academy together. Not long ago, we met in Noah's Jungle. Do you know who he is now?"
"All I know is that the lords of the Knights' City are subject to him. Phoenix, a little hesitant to answer.
Speaking of Sidney, Glori just wanted to distract Phoenix.
Glori knew Sidney had been promoted. However, Glori did not know that Sidney's status had improved so much. Sort of, Glori got a message from Phoenix. Well, that's easy to say.
Since the main church of the Knights Church is located in the Knights' City, it is naturally subject to the lords of the Knights' City. Sidney, on the other hand, is the most powerful one in the Knights' City.
"So, Phoenix, you're also at Sidney's mercy. After all, how could Sidney not be able to see such a large church in the Knights' City? Don't forget, Sidney made a special trip to Noah's Jungle to find me. ”
