When Charlotte and her companions jumped onto the hill in the wilderness, everyone exhaled with relief. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Once again, he used his ability to reset time and space to get out of the crisis, and came to the predetermined position just as the moon was about to reach its intended position. Dema looked up and carefully observed the changing trajectory of the stars in the sky, and then she said to Charlotte as she meticulously laid out a few defensive circles.
"Maggots, just stand anywhere around here, and then activate the magic energy to hold on for another quarter of an hour or so, and you will succeed. β
Charlotte took a closer look at her surroundings, there was nothing unusual here, countless weeds on the ground stubbornly burrowed out of the dirt, swaying themselves in the night wind. Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief, and found a more comfortable position at random to stimulate the magic energy in his body, and then, he noticed that the world in front of him had changed strangely.
The night sky became a little hazy, and the surrounding scenery was chirping like an antique television with poor signal reception, Charlotte rubbed her eyes in frustration, only to notice that from where she was standing, a very thin red light pierced through the thin clouds and pierced straight into the starry sky.
What the hell is this? He looked around and saw that in the north, south, southwest, and center of the sky there was a very thin red light piercing the starry sky, and they connected the heavens and the earth like a light of revelation that penetrated the heavens and the earth, and shone straight into the indescribable and mysterious universe. It seemed that these rays of light should only be observed by Charlotte, who was the eye of the array, at least Dema and Zoe didn't notice that there were still a few lights connecting heaven and earth in the starry sky.
If you count yourself, there are now five directions activated, and then, only the northwest and northeast formations are left. As the minutes ticked by, Charlotte felt for the first time that time was so hard. He asked Dema more than once for the exact time, and although the petite maid mage looked very impatient, she also saw the abnormal situation in Charlotte's anxious blue eyes, so the atmosphere on the scene gradually became anxious and weird.
About halfway through the time, just as Charlotte was about to despair, the light from the northwest suddenly shone through the starry sky. It echoed the other five beams, and as it joined, the illusory sense of the Cloister world became more apparent, so much so that Charlotte had to struggle to hear his staccato words as if he had received bad reception when Zoe spoke to herself.
In about seven minutes, as long as the mysterious seventh person in the northeast arrives at the predetermined location, they will be able to crack the strange and unpredictable endless space-time corridor and return to their true space-time! Come on! Seventh! Although you don't know who you are, you can definitely do it if you can be trusted by the future Grand Duke Sylvia of Icewind Castle......
"What a marvellous fellow, who are so cautious that I have been blown in the wilderness for a long time!"
This voice is!
Charlotte looked back sharply, and a few hundred meters ahead, a red-haired young man in a samurai uniform walked towards the formation with a wild smile on his face, clapping his hands. He wore a skull necklace around his neck, and his exposed bronzed chest boasted of his strong pectoral muscles, and he looked like a cynical wandering samurai.
But Charlotte knew that this was not the case, this man who had buried himself in the previous world line was the top root king of the future multiverse, and the current Abyss Lord Gerald! Although he appeared as a human warrior, there was no doubt that he was an out-and-out demon of chaos.
Zoe quietly bent her bow and arrows, the elven rangers were ready to fight, and Dema tightened the staff in her hand and stared coldly at the comer with her blue pupils. Charlotte clenched her fists and stared at the crazy killer for a moment.
"You're finally here, and to be honest, I'll be a little surprised if I can't wait for you!"
"Oh, you know I'm coming? Haha, are Sylvia and Emmanuel so smart that they are? What the hell, those two guys have changed their careers to learn prophecy spells? Hmm, you have ...... on your shoulders."
"It's the proof of the roots, the wisdom and soul of the artifact created by Rus-en! You really want to get it, Abyss Lord, no, Gerald the Lord Slayer. β
When they heard Charlotte tell the identity of the person, everyone present showed a look of surprise, and their expressions became even more cold. And Dema, the always indifferent mage, trembled slightly, just like the previous world line, staring at the red-haired young man with excited and fearful eyes.
"Hahahaha, what's going on? You kid seems to be able to guess what I'm trying to say, are Sylvia and Emmanuel really specialising in prophecy spells?"
"No, it's not Sylvia or Lord Emmanuel. β
Charlotte grinned, and that smile was so unrestrained and enthusiastic, like a reunion with an old friend she had been separated from for many years, full of fiery contagion. For a moment, Zoe even saw a phantasmagion of Claudian in him.
"It's His Majesty Lu Sien! His Majesty Lu Sien told me that such a day will come, and by the way, he wants me to help His Majesty Eagle avenge his hatred. Otherwise, how could His Majesty reward me with the proof of his roots!"
This is really a big shock, not to mention Gerald and Zoe, even Dema, who is from the same time and space as Charlotte, looks at Charlotte with a confident smile in confusion. Although what he said was too bizarre, it was very logical when you think about it. Otherwise, there would be no explanation for why he was favored by the Evidence of the Roots, and how he could have predicted Gerald's coming.
"Well, is that the truth......?
Al, who was sitting on Charlotte's shoulder, also showed a puzzled expression, and before she could blurt out her next words, Charlotte pulled her silver hair off her with an unchanging smile, causing the young girl to let out a miserable scream.
You could see that there was a hint of doubt in Gerald's bright red pupils, and before he could speak, Charlotte gave him another straight punch.
"What's the matter, Gerald, hesitantly, that's not your style. Ever since you killed Your Majesty Iger, whom you respect and admire the greatest, haven't you been troubled and depressed because you can no longer feel the supreme joy of killing the lord? Your Majesty Eagle and Your Majesty Lu Sien have given you a chance, come and fight, gamble your life and dignity to your heart's content, and in this Root Certificate, you will once again see the projection of His Majesty Eagle at the peak. Then, both sides gamble everything in a perfect posture for this joyful battle, and the loser will be given eternal destruction!"
Shaken, Gerald's bronzed Adam's apple fluttered slightly, and even the most frantic demon could not help but be shaken by the unexpected answer, by hearing the name of his most respected and feared master, and by hearing Charlotte, whom he had met for the first time, speaking out of his heart.
Yes, although Gerald is a strong man who will never succumb to others, he has always had an unbreakable divine circle in his heart, even if he once buried the high king with his own hands, but in the depths of his soul, the phantom of that person still profoundly affects him.
Gerald respects and admires Iger more than anyone else, and fears Iger more than anyone else. It is because of that respect, adoration, and fear that Gerald imitates his former master and teacher, learning his vast knowledge, showing himself in human form, making his speech as coherent as possible, and learning the lingua franca instead of the profane language of the abyss.
Iger's influence on him is so deep that it can even be said that if it were not for Iger, he would not have become the future lord of the black, and it is even possible that even the Abyss Lord Gerald would not exist, maybe he had been turned into the nourishment of the endless abyss in countless bloody battles in the abyss many years ago.
But because of this, the demon who will never succumb to people will bury Eagle with his own hands, burying the phantom in his heart!
But at this moment, being broken by the little ghost in front of him, Gerald discovered that Eagle's influence on him was so profound. He finally realizes that the apparition will always exist in his heart, because he represents not only Gerald's fears, but also Gerald's best and happiest times. That phantom has long become an inseparable existence from himself, because it is that phantom that will form the incomparably real Gerald now!
In just one reincarnation of the world, Charlotte figured out Gerald's heart, and used it as a bet to successfully shake this invincible demon. The Abyssal Demons' patterns of action are indeed very difficult to guess, and their chaotic nature can hardly explain their actions with any logic. But because it is a simple chaos, their thoughts are perhaps simpler than any human being.
"Come on, Gerald! What are you hesitating about? Isn't this what you've always dreamed of? There must be something unwilling in your chaotic heart, Igger died in the weakest of his way to your sneak attack, and although you succeeded, you weren't satisfied, did you? You still want to have a dignified confrontation with the perfect Iger, and knock him down from the front completely, in that case, what are you hesitating about!"
Yes, Gerald wanted to knock Eagle head-on, not out of fear or hatred, but like a child, he wanted to say to his father, who had been knocked down by him, 'Look! I've grown up to this point.'" More than anyone else, he wants to be recognized by Iger, and more than anyone else, he wants to prove that he is not inferior to Iger.
But, not now. Gerald, though arrogant, was not arrogant, and he knew very well that he was far from being Iger's opponent.
In his heyday, Eagle was the real king who could make the multiverse tremble, make the stars roll back, shake the kingdom of God, and cry in the abyss! He closed his eyes slightly, forced himself to suppress his fear of Eagle and his own desire to fight, and looked up at Charlotte, who was obviously very weak, but looked down on him like the former Iger.
I don't know who instructed you to say something like that, but I admit you did shake me. But don't dream of making me regress from here! Your plan to create a circle to destroy us has been made known to the witch. Today, that so-called delusion will finally be broken by my own hands!"
"Legendary Demon Summonβ"
An evil, penetrating red light bloomed from his body, and with his roar, countless demons howled out of the giant circle, which was no longer a demon warband, but a truly terrifying army!
The elven rangers trembled slightly, of course, in the face of such a terrible legion, even if the psychological quality was as strong as Zoe, they couldn't help but feel hopeless. Charlotte, however, smiled triumphantly, and there were only three minutes left before the circle was activated, in other words, he had managed to stall for time.
The final victory of this race of life and death has been won by him!
