Chapter 308: Ancient Hydra (Part I)

"Lord Mackennes, there's someone up ahead calling for help. A silver knight said respectfully to the white cardinal.

"Anyone?" said Mackennes' brow twitched.

"That's right, it seems to be the lost people of the Bright Blue Academy, but among them, there is also a seriously injured dark elf. ”

"Dark Elves!?" Mekennes's face instantly darkened, "Take me to see it." ”

When they came to the place of the incident, dozens of silver knights formed a tight circle, and the girl's crying plea came from inside.

"Please, save my sister, she's not a bad person. ”

Some of the surrounding Silver Knights were moved by the sound of the girl crying, but many more stared at the half-bloodstained dark elves behind them with unkind faces, if it weren't for the fact that there was a female knight by her side who was guarding her, they would have forcibly dragged the silver-haired girl away.

"Get out of the way" With Mekennes's soft call, the silver knight stepped aside, and two human women, one large and one small, were guarding the side of a female dark elf who had fallen to the ground, the latter seemed to have suffered a penetrating wound to the shoulder, his face was extremely pale, and he fell into a coma, and if he was not treated, his life was likely to be in danger.

However, the injured person is a dark elf, and it is a serious violation of the rules of the Holy See to save her for no reason. Just as he was about to open his mouth to forcibly arrest the three comers, a crisp and pleasant voice came from behind.

"Hey, what's going on here? I want to hear someone crying for help."

Catherine ran over in small steps, and at a glance saw the silver-haired girl kneeling and pleading, and the little priest blinked her big clear eyes: "This is?"

"Please, save my sister, she's really not a bad person. Finding that there was no hatred in her eyes, Starry Night seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and pleaded with her again.

"Sister?" The kind little priest looked at Lisa Tower, who fell to the ground unconscious, suspiciously, and agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I'll save her." ”

As she spoke, a warm white light flew out of her snow-white palm and landed on Lisata's ribbon-wrapped shoulder, and the bleeding immediately stopped, and her face became ruddy.

"Catherine, thisβ€”" Mekeniel's face was a little ugly, and before she could finish speaking, Catherine tilted her head to look at him: "Is there any problem? The goddess of light said that saving the dead and helping the wounded is the duty of our holy priests, and tolerance and mercy are also the excellent qualities of our clergy. ”

"But she's a dark elf"

"I know, but she's no threat to us right now"

The cardinal wanted to argue about something, but Catherine turned her head directly to the starry night and said: "Get up first, your sister is fine, don't worry, I'm here, as long as you explain the reason for the matter, I will guarantee you and your sister, and... That big sister will be fine. ”

......

"Sure enough, black hair looks pretty good, isn't it, Ayton" Luna looked in the mirror with interest at her short black hair.

"Mmmmmmmm

"Uh-huh, do you look good with me, brother" Ariel behind her made a faint voice, and Ayton suddenly felt a pain in his waist and begged for mercy again and again.

At this time, on the back of the ghost dragon, Sarias and Sylna had already left, and only Cleveland was left riding on the dragon's back with a sad face. He already knew that the powerful senior in front of him was Ayton, who had a small dispute with him at the beginning. And he has a strange ability to transform other people's appearances, and has a lot to do with the fallen dark elves...

What does this mean, a fool can guess that he has a big secret on him, if he said that he still had something to hide at first, but since the departure of the two female elves, he has unreservedly used his abilities, and his words are not taboo at all, all of which makes him feel cold down his spine, who is well versed in power and scheming.

From beginning to end, whenever he wanted to make a request to leave, he would be coldly glanced at by the latter, and then obediently shut his mouth.

"Mei'er, it's been so long, is the elven dragon you mentioned still alive?" In order to prevent Ariel from arguing too much about who is good-looking, Ayton patted the bone spine of the ghost dragon to divert the attention of the two girls.

"I don't know, anyway, while the ghost dragon's physical strength can last for two days now, if it is injured, the time will be reduced, but we can still take a good walk around this ruin. Mei'er's voice in her head carried a strong curiosity about the outside world, she had been asleep most of the time before, but now she was rarely awake, and she had a powerful dragon body, so she had to have a good time.

"Alright then, but I don't know if Starry Night has teleported them here," Ayton smiled bitterly and answered Mei'er's words.

"Master, I'm going to speed up!"

......

"Heh, how did you get to this?" Herki sneered at the group of dark elves, who were rolling in the mud, muddy and even showing signs of corrosion.

Daisy looked at him coldly: "Ancient Hydra, you have the ability to go up and try it." ”

"Is the Ancient Hydra powerful?" Herki's eyes showed a hint of playfulness.

"Hmph, the monsters of the ancient era have at least seventh-order strength" Daisy looked at the only 50 of her subordinates, and said angrily: "There is a swamp ahead, that monster is hiding under the swamp, and there are countless snake-like monsters lurking underneath, if we hadn't discovered it earlier, otherwise... Anyway, you can try it and find out. ”

"You should know, the order from above is for us to explore and destroy the Holy See troops sent by the Holy See in this direction."

"Of course I know, but with the few people you brought, how can you resist the 600 people of the Holy See" Daisy turned her head to look at the more than two hundred people in the Cursed Sect.

"Oh, the mission is to sabotage their plans, but what if you accidentally leave all those people here?"

"All left?" Daisy's face changed slightly, and then she suddenly said, "You mean, to guide them into that swamp?"

The playfulness in Helki's eyes became more and more solemn: "I hope they don't know that the ancient hydra that originally guarded the south of the ruins has migrated some distance to the west. ”

......

"Priest Ekaterina, High Priest Remia has something to say to you alone. The silver knight bent down and said respectfully to the girl in front of him.

"Remia, what does she want me to say?" Ekaterina looked back at the Silver Knight, who lowered his head.

"The subordinates don't know, the high priest only said that you should go alone. ”

Catherine turned her head and smiled embarrassedly at Starry Night, who waved her hand and smiled: "It's okay, Sister Catherine, you go first." ”

"Alright then, I'll be right back, Sister Starry. The simple little priest left the field of view with a burst of silvery laughter, but as soon as she was far away, Mekenneth came towards them behind her.

Cecily gently placed her hand on the hilt of her sword, and several of the silver knights around her leaned over when they saw the situation, and the white cardinal raised his right hand to stop them.

"Presumably you are the eldest lady of Duke Campbell's family in the Bright Blue Kingdom, Cecily Campbell," Mekenneth was the first to speak, in an amiable tone.

"Well, I wonder what happened to the Bishop's 'while she was away' to find us?" Cerseily stood sideways in front of Lisa Tower, who had not yet awakened, and nodded in acquiescence, Starry Night's sister was injured by Zoro, and she didn't stop Sauron immediately, blaming herself in her heart, of course she didn't allow others to hurt Lisa Tower again.

"It's nothing. Mekenneth smiled faintly: "I just want to ask, how did you get involved with a dark elf, you know, even if you are the eldest lady of the Campbell family, you have to be burned at the stake." ”

The threat of the last sentence was unmistakable, and Cecily took a deep breath and turned her gaze to the back, only to realize that Starry Night had quietly held the 'Silver Shimmer'.

"Starry Night?!" Cersilian snorted, who fell on deaf ears.

Mekenneth quietly looked at the two people in front of him, not in a hurry at all, waiting for their explanation. Once he exposes the news, the eldest lady of the Campbell family shields the dark elves, and the Bright Blue Kingdom will not cause an uproar, then...

"Lord Mekenneth, there are traces of fallen mages found in front of you, and there are about a hundred people!" Just when the atmosphere was extremely depressing, a silver knight relieved the siege of Starry Night.

"Are you sure?" said Mackennes, frowning.

"It's true, they are fleeing towards the temple, if they don't take action, they probably won't be able to catch up" The silver knight's voice was determined: "Lord Remia has already led someone to chase after him, please make a decision immediately." ”

......

The front of the line.

"Eradicate all the infidels! leave no one behind" With the passionate voice of the crescent high priest Remiya, several balls of light bombarded the scattered skeleton soldiers in front of them, followed by the charge of the silver knight, and a team leader of the fifth order peak stepped forward and proposed.

"High Priest Remia, the dirt here is soft, and the front is probably a swamp"

"That's just the right time to force these heretics into the swamp," Remia's voice could not be refused, and the team leader knew that the crescent high priest in front of him hated the cursed sect uncontrollably, and then consciously did not speak again.

There were a total of 600 people in this operation, and 100 of them were bombarded by the crescent moon sacrifice magic, followed by the charge of 300 knights on both sides, like a sharp knife inserted into the crowd of cursed cultists, quickly breaking through the scattered skeleton soldiers, and setting off a bloody storm in the rear.

"Catherine, let the people behind us come quickly, and besides, that dark elf must keep an eye on her, and when we annihilate these infidels, we must interrogate her properly!"

Remia said to the little priest without looking back, and without waiting for him to respond, she chased in the direction of the knight with the crescent moon sacrifice guarding the surroundings.

Although Catherine was higher than the old high priest in terms of position and strength, her seniority was much lower than that of the other party, and she was the same hub, she was taken care of by a lot of Remia when she was young, so she did not refute her words like the white cardinal, and returned to the rear depressedly.

Mekenneth led the rest of the cavalry to support Remia, leaving only a small squad to guard the starry night.

When the Silver Knight saw Catherine returning, he consciously stepped back. And at this time, Lisata had also woken up, frowning and looking at everything around her, she would never have thought that she was actually saved by the people of the Holy See, her sworn enemy, but... This is tantamount to a sheep in the mouth of a tiger.

"Sister Catherine, thank you for your help, my sister has woken up" Seeing the little priest returning, Starry Night ran to her side in surprise and whispered in a voice that the surrounding knights couldn't hear: "But please do us a little favor and let us get out of here." ”

"This..."Catherine's face was a little embarrassed, she saved Lisa Tower out of sympathy for a girl who was only twelve years old, if she let her go without permission... She silently swept around the Silver Knights, and for the first time she realized that sometimes it was so difficult to make decisions.

"Starry Night, Come Back"

Behind her, there was a cry from Cecili, Starry Night lowered her gaze, and her fingers unconsciously moved to the 'silver shimmer' next to her thigh, she knew that it was a good time to escape while the guards were lax, but she couldn't bear to embarrass the little priest in front of her.

"Priest Catherine, the two adults in front of you are in some trouble, you need us to hurry up and help," a silver knight suddenly stepped forward to report. The little priest's face was slightly shocked, and he looked into the distance, the more than 300 silver knights who had charged at the beginning had fallen into the swamp, and the rest were rushing to the rescue.

"Then let's hurry up and help" The little priest had just taken a few steps before he turned back to Starry Night apologetically and said, "Well, please stay here a little longer, and when High Priest Remia asks about something, maybe he will let you go." ”

β€œ... Hmm" Starry Night silently withdrew his fingers, feeling extremely entangled.

The silver knight in armor was far more likely to fall into the swamp than the Cursed Cultist in black robes, and the Cursed Cultist, who was chased by them less than half of the original, took off their cloaks and showed a pale face, even though half of their bodies were already in the swamp, they still smirked and released bone spurs to attract more people.

The crescent moon priest who arrived from behind also unleashed light magic to defend against the attack, and also cleaned up the remnants of the cursed cultists, but at that moment, the sound of light magic explosions attracted the attention of the behemoth that had just slept in the swamp.

A huge snake-shaped head suddenly emerged from the swamp, and immediately swallowed a struggling silver knight with a horse, and before the rest could react, another head poked out from under the swamp and bit a person, accompanied by a scream, the knight was directly bitten to death, and the mutilated body was thrown far away.

This shocking change made everyone stunned in place, and Mekenneth, who rushed over, muttered: "Ancient Hydra, shouldn't it be in the south, how did it migrate to the vicinity of the Elven Dragon Temple?"

"Damn fallen mage, crescent priest, prepare!" With a roar from Remia, nearly a hundred balls of light focused on the ancient hydra, which had just exposed half of its body, and the balls of light exploded on the surface of its body full of dirt clots, but these clots accumulated over the years provided a thick layer of protection for its body.

When it was halfway revealed, everyone was shocked to find that it was a behemoth with nine snake heads, each head had a protective layer like black mud, and the powerful light magic fell on its body and only set off a black clot, but this also completely angered this ancient demonic beast whose anger had just subsided.

The nine black heads each spat out a mouthful of sticky black blob that smelled of sulfur, and instantly corroded the armor of several silver knights who had fallen into the swamp, leaving only gloomy white bones.

"We've fallen into a trap, get out!" Remia yelled, but half of the knights who had already fallen into the swamp could not escape so easily, and the hydra, which had been provoked twice in a row, did not intend to let go of these intruders easily, especially since the light element used by the other party was anomalously disgusting...

Catherine, who came from behind, frowned, and prayed with both hands for the light element in the air to respond, and soon there was a ripple in the air in front of her, and the rich light element gathered in front of her to form a five-pointed magic array, but this also successfully attracted the attention of the ancient hydra, and the nine huge heads looked at the little priest at the same time.

The moment the circle was condensed, nine circles of light shot out one after another, binding the nine heads of the demonic beast at the same time, Mekenneth and Remia did not dare to slack off, and respectively condensed a huge light gun and light ball to smash towards the hydra.

A barrage of magical bombardment caused the ancient hydra to let out a terrible wail, and a scarlet glow appeared in the snake's pupils.

On the stone pillar in the distance, Daisy and Helkey witnessed all this happening, and sneered: "Arrogant guy, you have been transferred into the trap so easily. ”

"My people have detected a temple exuding the breath of life ahead, and I wonder if the Holy See is the target," Daisy said slowly.

"The temple? I don't know if there are any more powerful demonic beasts in there, our task is to look at these Holy See teams first" Herki turned his head to look at her, then turned his eyes to Angel behind her, and changed his words: "However, it's not impossible to send a small team of people to that temple to take a look." ”

"......" Daisy was noncommittal, and her red eyes continued to stare at the battle taking place in the Holy See in the distance.
