Chapter 7: Spear and Shield
Ral looked out the window, and the sky was now filled with dark clouds.
But this tranquility made Ral feel a little worried.
You know, the calmer the city, the more intense the undercurrent becomes. With that in mind, Ral walked to a corner of the room, opened a secret compartment, and took out one of the scrolls inside, and placed it in the cloth bag on his chest.
After all this, Ral's heart became a little more settled. So he poured himself another cup of hot tea and planned to return to his seat and continue reading.
At this moment, a person suddenly appeared on the chair that was originally unoccupied, and I saw him wearing a gray cloak and holding a threaded staff, and the red gem was set on the staff, which was particularly conspicuous in the light.
"Ronala. ”
Ral's eyes narrowed, and he slowly read out the visitor's name.
"Huh. ”
Ronala raised her head, looked at Lal, and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't expect you to hide in this place." ”
"But you've found it, haven't you?" said Ral, continuing to pour the tea. But in reality, Ral's heart is extremely worried.
"Are you alone? or ....... Ral asked.
Now that he has found this place, it also means that he and the others have been exposed.
"Rest assured. Ronala spread his hands, "Now only I know this place." ”
"Oh?" said Ral, who was a little surprised, and asked, "How did you find here?"
"Hahaha, that's because you were too careless. With that, Ronala threw a piece of parchment on the table.
This is a title deed and the address is exactly this house.
“...... , I have to say, I was careless. ”
"You shouldn't have been. Ronala put away the title deed and said.
Lal shook his head and said, "This is what I owe to my helper, and it is my own choice." ”
Hearing this, Ronala smiled disdainfully: "We are just tools that he has cultivated for himself." ”
"Even so, he helped us in our most difficult times and taught us magic. Ral retorted.
As he spoke, his eyes suddenly sharpened, like a knife, stabbing at Ronala. "And you, now you are working for the tiger, you should know how the helper died!"
But Ronala was unimpressed, and said with a smile: "I don't do things for anyone." Those old guys don't have that qualifications, or ...... I'm not the only one here now. ”
"Humph!" Ral snorted. Apparently extremely dismissive of Ronala's rhetoric.
“......。 Seeing this, Ronala also shook his head, and then continued to say to himself: "Now that the master is dead, I have no restraints, and now, I only live for myself." ”
"Oh, live for yourself, why are you here. Ral asked.
Although Ronala ostensibly said that he came here without telling others, according to the news from the detection, there are more and more wild wolf gangs around here.
"You and I still have a duel to complete. ”
“......。 Lal naturally knew what this so-called "duel" was, so he said: "I can promise you about the duel, but it's just ......." ”
"Just what?"
"Can you come back someday?" replied Ral.
"Pick a day?hahahaha!"
Hearing Ral's answer, Ronala burst out laughing.
"Do you know how long I've been waiting for this day?!"
Then throw out a hurricane of fire elementals.
With a bang, the house was blasted out of a hole, and Ral hurriedly dodged it, leaving only a few pieces of rubble scattered under the shock wave of the explosion.
The huge explosion naturally startled Natila downstairs. After going upstairs, I only saw this scene like ruins, and my heart couldn't help but tighten.
Then he shouted, "Grandpa Ral!"
But in response, it was a fiery fireball.
"Boom!"
In an instant, the fireball exploded, and the fiery breath rushed towards Natilla, and just as Natilla was about to be swallowed by the fireball, he saw a wall of earth suddenly rise in front of him, helping him block the attack.
"Natilla, hide!" Lal's voice sounded in the distance.
But faster than Ral, it was another fireball.
"Natila!!"
Seeing this, Lal had no choice but to rush up and protect Natila.
Then he turned to look at Ronala and roared, "You goddamn madman!!"
But Ronala didn't care, but said to herself.
"You know, I've been comparing you to my target ever since you and I joined the Wolves, and it's true that you and I have become the best of them. ”
"After that, everyone called you and me the two generals of the Wild Wolf Gang, you as the shield and I as the spear, which were the two pillars of the Wild Wolf Gang....... ”
Manic fire elemental power gathers around Ronala.
"But whether this is a spear or a shield, but there is no one to say! Since then, I have always wanted to surpass you! Again and again...... In terms of tasks, I have killed more people than you! In terms of execution, I have been more diligent and active, and I have gained great reputation in the gang....... ”
"But I'm just unwilling, who is stronger between you and me! And today, let me see if your shield is strong, or my spear is sharp!"
With that, he summoned two fire tornadoes, wrapped in a breath of destruction, and threw them towards the place where Lal was.
Lal didn't dare to despise it, not to mention that there was Natila behind him.
So, he slammed the ground, and a huge wall of earth and stone condensed rose from the ground, forcibly taking down these two extremely destructive fire tornadoes.
Then he quickly chanted the incantation, and the power of the earth elemental converged again, and a tornado of broken stone appeared in his hand.
He needs time now!
"Go!"
As soon as Lal gave an edict, the tornado turned into a giant dragon and flew towards where Lonara was. And Ronala is also ready to attack at the moment, and the same fire tornado flies.
In an instant, there will be fire and rain, and the sky will be full of sand and gravel. At this moment, it was a pure confrontation between magic and magic, and waves of qi came out from the center of the confrontation, emitting bursts of whining sounds.
......
On the other side, Grellers also heard the movement and was about to arrive, but was held back by the gangs fighting on the road, and could only hope for the ...... of the other guards.
But in fact, this is a long-planned hunt by the Wolf Gang. At this time, in other neighborhoods, gangs were also in frequent disputes, and all the guards were intercepted.
Monta's house.
At this time, Monta was sitting on the sofa, and in front of him was a projection magic stone.
cracked his grin and said with a smile: "Ronala, this old guy, thinks he can hide it from me, but he doesn't know that all this is my arrangement." ”
Beside him, several Wolf Gang executives were standing beside him, sneering at the same thing, laughing at Ronala's innocence.
The picture projected by the magic stone in front of you is where the Lahr residence is located. At this time, several killers of the Wild Wolf Gang were gathering momentum.
"Hahaha, Ral, you're old!"
As he spoke, Ronala hooked his fingers, and several fire tornadoes flew out again.
"The good of the tongue. ”
Lal also waved with one hand, and several sand and stone tornadoes also greeted him, but the potential energy was not as good as that of Lonala, and a blood mark also flowed from the corner of his mouth, obviously being eaten by magic power.
"Grandpa Laar!" Natira was also full of worry.
"It's fine. ”
This is not because of Ral's lack of ability, because compared to the Ronala in front of him, the killers of the Wolf Gang who are in the shadows are what worries Ral more. Just because the Circle of Monitoring is still in operation doesn't mean that Lal can take it lightly.
But if you continue to consume like this, you will lose sooner or later.
As soon as his mind turned, he suddenly exploded, turning from attack to defense, and a huge wall of boulders rose on the ground. Although it can only stop a breath of time, it is enough for Ral.
"Next, Natila, you just have to run, go to the nameless tavern, and ....... ”
Natila couldn't hear the rest clearly, but watched in a daze as Lal pulled out a scroll from his bosom and was withdrawn.
"Run!"
That scroll, Natila remembers, was a kind of life-sacrificing scroll, and when released, the caster would merge with the elementals and increase in strength. But the price is - death!
"Grandpa Ral!!"
Nati stretched her hand to stop it, but the elemental power had already begun to climb up Lal's body, and the sand and gravel seemed to have life, condensing towards Lal, and finally, Natila only had a good look at Lal's kind eyes, and was knocked out by a storm.
When the smoke cleared, there was no lahr on the ground at this moment, just a tall rock giant, slamming the ground in anger, letting out a roar.
It seems to be unintentional, but it is intentional, and elementalization brings not only great power, but also extremely high elemental affinity. With a few hammer blows, several giant rock thorns were sent out, flying towards the few Wolf Gang killers who were hiding in the shadows.
Then there was another roar, and the boulder rolled, and in the blink of an eye, it flew towards Ronala, catching Ronala off guard.
After seeing Ral's appearance, Ronala was even more shocked.
"Elemental Fusion?!"
Obviously, Ronala didn't expect Lal to use this trick.
Then there was excitement, and he bit his finger and drew a blood spell in the air, and then those blood spells turned into a black spell and flowed towards Ronara.
In an instant, Ronala was surrounded by flames, and the fire elemental power around her became more violent.
At this moment, both of them used their hole cards.
"Come on!"
With a roar, tens of thousands of fire elements gathered towards Ronala, and a giant flame giant bird appeared in the void, and this was also a blow from Ronala's full strength!
"The phoenix fires the plain!!"
After the giant bird took shape, as soon as its wings spread, it let out a startling roar, like a flying rainbow, and rushed towards Ral.
And Lal also roared to the sky, expanding in size again, and forcibly blocked Ronala's attack, but the consequence was that some cracks had appeared on the elemental's body.
Seeing this, Ronala also laughed.
"Hahahaha, sure enough, this is your real strength!
Then another lunge, turning into a flaming giant, slammed into Ral with a single punch.
Boom –
Suddenly, the ground crumbled and the houses collapsed.
At this moment, the momentum is so great that the entire Xicheng District is affected.
In the distance, Grayles, who was dealing with the dispute, was also shocked that something was wrong, so he shook off the troublesome gangsters and rushed in the direction of the explosion.
And in the place of battle, at this time, the original spell battle has turned into a fist-to-flesh battle between two elemental giants.
But after all, Lal casts spells at the cost of his life, even if Ronala's attack is still fierce, it can't break through Lal's defense, and he is pressed to the ground by Lal and constantly rubbed.
"Hahahaha, that's it!
But the more this is the case, the more excited Ronala becomes, seizing the opportunity, a flying pounce, and pushing Lal down, the two of you come and go, and for a while there is no winner or loser.
And at this moment, the intervention of a magic energy cannon broke the original balance.
Boom –
The pillar of light from the magic cannon struck directly into Ral's back, and a crack appeared on the elemental's body.
Before he could react, boom-
Another magic cannon hit Ral in the back again. Although it was not fatal, the terrifying power hastened Ral's debilitation.
In particular, this magic energy cannon seems to be not over yet, and it is another beam of light, although it was blocked by Ral, but this pure energy attack still caused Ral to suffer a lot of injuries.
It can be seen with the naked eye that layers of stones have fallen from Ral's body, and the original giant has more than doubled in size at this moment, and when all the stones are stripped from Ral's body, it also means that death ...... coming.
I saw Lal push away Ronala, who was fighting with him, and when he turned around, he threw a boulder and smashed it towards the place where the magic cannon was.
And Ronala, who was fighting against Ral, naturally saw this, and at this moment, he realized that he seemed to be being used, and the duel between spear and shield was also destroyed.
Immediately, he was furious, and with a leap of strength, he smashed into the place where those wolf gangs were, and with a single flick of his hand, all the magic energy cannons were destroyed.
And at this moment, Lal couldn't hold on, and there were only some small pieces of earth elements attached to his body, and his rickety body looked so weak at this moment.
As if to return to the light, Ral suddenly raised his head, looked at Ronala, smiled, and issued the last spell of his life.
It was a flying rock, and it flew straight towards Ronala, who was standing, and when the flying stone hit Ronala, Ral fell straight down.
Ronala also touched the transformation and walked in front of Ral, at this moment, Ral's eyes were already dilated, and his anger was free.
Leaving Ronala standing still, this spear and shield duel ended with the incurrence of a third party and the death of Ral.
But such a victory is not what Ronala wants, and what he has been pursuing has become a tool for others to make profits...... For a while, always complicated thoughts also came to his mind, and he understood.
Why did he get the clue of Lal so easily? Why didn't he see a single guard around? This is how he was calculated! He was already irritable, and he exploded even more at this moment, and the surrounding fire elemental also became manic.
And at this moment, the wolf gang that was originally hiding in the shadows also appeared, and someone was heard shouting: "Ronala killed Ral!"
Then, a few guards arrived, and looking at the devastated street, the guards also took out their own, pointing at Ronala.
"Lay down your weapons and take them!"
At this moment, he is like a clown jumping off the beam. All kinds of complicated thoughts in my heart intertwined, and finally turned into an unwilling roar.
Then he jumped up and left the place.
The wolf gang who stayed in place took Ral's body away on the pretext of dealing with the affairs of the gang.
No one noticed that in one corner of the ruins, a rune flashed, and a ripple appeared in the surrounding space, and then, Natilla's figure appeared.
Yes, he did not go far at that time, and it can even be said that he did not go at all.
When he was pushed away by Ral, a circle rose around him, trapping him there, he could see everything around him, and nothing else could be done. In the same way, it will not be harmed by the outside world.
This is a formation, it can create a different space that belongs to this world, but does not belong to this space, and it is also the last protection that Lal can do for Natilla.
When the energy of the formation disappeared, the other space also disappeared, and Natila returned here. At this time, his brain was still recalling the scene when Lal fell, and he was a little distracted. Tears also wet his eyes, and after the extreme sadness, there was a silent ...... of pain.
