aurora
In the extreme light, there is no shadow to be seen, and the Shadow of the Aurora is such an invisible team, and the members in it are good at stealth, assassination, and ambush, and they are the powerful executors of the Church of Light to carry out secret operations. The members of Aurora Shadow vary in rank and profession, ranging from high-level powerhouses to ordinary people who seem to have no combat power. But they have one thing in common, all of them in Aurora Shadow are the most devout believers in the Church of Light.
The more devout people are, the crazier they do things, and Dakko knows this. Even the ordinary people in Aurora Shadow are often able to accomplish things that are beyond common sense, and because their identities are less susceptible to suspicion, the success rate of missions such as intelligence spying, poisoning, and suicide attacks is even higher than that of high-level Aurora Shadow members. As long as he is careful enough, he can avoid being calculated by ordinary people, but for Darko, he is most worried about being assassinated by high-ranking fighters, just like now.
Dakko stared at the figure of the woman in black motionlessly, judging from the speed and agility of the other party just now, it was definitely not something that could be achieved at the level of a great samurai, I am afraid that only a pure assassin at the level of a swordsman could have that ability to turn in the air. If it was an ordinary swordsman level, he would not be afraid, after all, Darko is now ranked above many swordsmen as a great magician, but the other party is an assassin of the Shadow of Aurora, not only pious but also a profession that just restrains magicians, thinking of this, Darko is scalp tingling, he never imagined that he would face such trouble. Being targeted by an assassin of this level, even the Grand Magus will probably have trouble sleeping.
"Bright, your time of death has come. The woman in black had a cold voice, but Darko was stunned, he hadn't heard this voice, but the other party actually called out Bright, indicating that she must know a lot of things in the past, after all, there are not many people who know that Darko is Bright.
Without waiting for Darko to answer, the woman in black turned in Adam's direction and said distantly, "If I am not mistaken, this should be Adam, the first heir of the Stuart family, right?
Adam looked at Darko in the distance, and saw that Darko was also looking at him nervously, Adam suddenly laughed, and after laughing for a while, he shouted to the woman in black, "I refuse." ”
But all strong people will have some arrogance, Adam's reluctance to join forces was also expected by the woman in black, she turned her gaze back to Darko, "That's fine, to deal with a great magician, I alone is enough." ”
However, Adam quickly attached a Douqi Feather Arrow, put it on the Douqi longbow in his left hand, and turned the bow around using the twisting method, and the arrow pointed at the woman in black, "I have an enemy relationship with Darko, but I can't allow outsiders to interfere. ”
The woman in black frowned slightly, Adam brought her a sense of danger even more than Darko, she couldn't ignore Adam's arrows aimed at her to attack Darko. So she asked faintly, "What does this mean, don't you want to kill Bright?"
"Bright in your mouth should mean Darko, right?" Adam replied calmly, but the bow and arrow in his hand did not relax at all, always aiming at the woman in black, "My first idea was just to test his strength, if he is not strong, then it will not hurt to kill him." But this is my own battle, and I can't allow outsiders to interfere, and if you want to kill him, you have to pass my level first. ”
The woman in black was stunned, nodded and said, "I understand, then I won't bother for now, and the two of you will divide the winners and losers first." ”
"Let's decide the winner first? Are you going to be a spectator on the sidelines? If you want to watch a show at the Colosseum, but you still need to buy a ticket, so you should pay for the ticket in advance. Before Adam finished speaking, the arrow in his hand had lit up a little crimson, and the fighting arrow shot directly at the woman in black.
The woman in black didn't expect Adam to make a move suddenly, but her reaction was not slow at all, she slid quietly like a wisp of smoke and dust, and reached another tree trunk. The movement seemed slow, but it easily dodged the path of the arrow, and there was no smoke and fire. The arrow flashed a few centimeters from her forehead and flew into the distant sky, but she didn't even blink an eye, as if everything was under her control.
But at this moment, the body of the woman in black suddenly paused, and she found that the trunk of the tree under her feet had been densely covered with a large amount of frost at some point, and with her magic resistance, she was not spared, and her feet were also stained with a little white frost, and she was actually hit by the sluggish effect. Of course, Darko was not idle when Adam was talking to the woman in black, and the magic fluctuations when he cast the spell may be detected by the other party, but the shrunken version of the ice spell released by the combination of magic control ability and silent recitation ability is much more hidden, and he climbed along the trunk to the branch behind the woman in black, and was not noticed by the other party, so that the sluggish effect played a role this time.
At the same time, Adam's archery skills were truly on display, no longer using the twisting technique, but shooting the arrows one after the other, so fast that it was impossible to see the movements of his hands. Darko was even more awe-inspiring, if Adam used such a rate of fire against him, he probably didn't know how many arrows he had been shot. However, Adam knew the disadvantage of his rapid-fire fire, and although he didn't need preparation time and energy to charge, this ordinary arrow was relatively low in speed and attack power, and it was impossible to shoot through Darko's frost armor. But the woman in black was obviously an assassin who followed the pure and sensitive route, her own defense was bound to be weak, and in order to increase her speed and agility, she did not wear any armor, and Adam obviously intended to rely on accumulating small injuries to defeat the opponent.
In fact, Adam's guess was correct, the woman in black did sacrifice all her defense in exchange for extreme agility, and her whole body, from glyphs to enchantments to jewelry, was all matched to enhance agility, even if she was a swordsmith-level warrior, she was slightly inferior in agility. But this allowed her to gain agility at the expense of other attributes, if it wasn't for the legendary dagger of Glory given to her before this mission, she wouldn't have been able to break through Darko's frost armor, but this dagger emits a strong light when it attacks, which also makes it easier for her to expose her attack intentions, so as to startle the snake.
Adam guessed correctly about the fact that the woman in black had low defense, but still underestimated her agility. I saw the woman in black tossing and turning between the surrounding branches like a wisp of green smoke, and just like that, she dodged the attacking fighting arrows, although she was hit by the sluggish effect, her agility was still a cut higher than that of ordinary people, and she still had the strength to dodge Adam's fighting arrows. But Adam's fighting spirit arrows are also very skillful, every time the sunspot woman moves to another branch, she will immediately find that another arrow has attacked, and she has to dodge again, and the fighting spirit that shoots from front to back, left and right will shoot fewer and fewer branches in mid-air, and the woman in black can only move farther away from Darko.
Just then, Darko's magic was ready, and he raised his hands sharply, and a large gray blizzard roared through the woods, and the center of the blizzard was where the woman in black was. Large swathes of the woods were blown apart in the blizzard, but before the leaves could hit the ground, they were swept away in the chaos and vanished. Blizzard is a fourth-level magic, and with chaotic power mixed into it, it is enough to kill and injure the woman in black.
The woman in black remained calm in the magic of this range, and her figure immediately scurried towards the canopy, and then jumped high from the highest branch, jumping into the air.
Darko and Adam are both experienced in combat, how could they miss such an opportunity, Darko had just cast a spell on a chaotic blizzard, so he could only launch it in a bend of the chaotic ice moon, surrounding the woman in black in different arcs. However, Adam seemed to have expected such a situation, and when Darko cast the spell blizzard, he had already shot the last physical arrow, and the arrow swept towards it with a huge flame flower, and for a moment even the blizzard below was eclipsed. In the middle of the attack of Darko and Adam, the woman in black was in mid-air with nowhere to borrow, and it seemed that she was already in danger.
But at this moment, a trace of hatred flashed in the eyes of the woman in black, and she saw that her body suddenly froze without warning, and then changed direction out of thin air and rushed forward. This is exactly the ability of the woman in black, relying on changing the distribution of the fighting qi in her body to adjust the center of gravity, so that the body in mid-air can change direction instantly, and the arrow she dodged when she sneaked up on Darko was to slow down in the air with this ability before kicking the arrow back to the trunk. Then with another shake of her hand, she tore open a magic scroll, and an arcane shield appeared on her body.
The woman in black changed direction without warning and the timing was exquisite, not only did she let the flame flower pass for a while, but Darko's Ice Moon Technique didn't have time to adjust its direction. The magic arrows and the dozen or so Ice Moon Spells all missed their targets, but they converged at one point in the air, which then caused a loud bang, and the chaotic rags emitted by the Ice Moon Technique could not hide the bloom of the flame flowers, filling Darko's field of vision like scattered petals.
And although the woman in black dodged a distance, she still couldn't open the range of this explosion, and the explosion behind her directly threw her out, and the arcane shield just flashed and disappeared. But the woman in black had already chosen the direction from the beginning, and the direction of the impact was towards Dako. Despite the impact, her movements were not messy at all, like a flash of light.
Neither Darko nor Adam expected that this woman in black would launch such a Jedi counterattack, and they were both caught off guard for a while. I saw that the daggers with the length of the two palms released a streamer that was even brighter than before, and stabbed at Dakko invincibly. From the woman in black dodging in the air to the streamer attacking, it only took a very short moment, and before Darko even had time to think, he saw that the tip of the dazzling dagger had already pierced his frost armor. The frost armor was easily sliced through the dagger's streamer like cheese, and the streamer continued to stab at his chest.
"Stop. Suddenly, a cold voice came from somewhere, and the streamer actually stopped at Darko's chest like this, and even pierced Darko's magic robe. The woman in black immediately dodged and withdrew from a long distance, until she stumbled when she stood firmly, only to see that the black clothes on her back were also gone, and her entire back was scarred, although she was protected by an arcane shield, she was still seriously injured.
Darko fell to the ground in fright, gasping for breath, and the frost armor on his body gradually covered with cracks, which was the aftermath of the light magic on the dagger. Darko already felt a tingling in his chest, and he was sure that if the tip of the dagger had advanced another centimeter, he would have died.
However, Darko suddenly felt that the cold female voice who shouted to stop was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember anything. Darko looked at the woman in black suspiciously, just in time to see the dark brown pupils of the woman in black slowly changing to blue, and Darko instantly remembered that this was some kind of light magic—visual sharing.
Visual sharing is a level 5 light magic that allows the caster to see what is happening in the eyes of the caster, and vice versa, it can also allow the receiver to see the caster's vision, but only with the consent of the caster. Generally speaking, the duration of visual sharing is only about five minutes, even the light magician of the Church of Light will not cast a spell for more than ten minutes, this woman in black must have been blessed by some kind of secret method, so that the effect of visual sharing has only been triggered until now.
It can be seen that this woman in black has already been cast a spell when she came to carry out the mission, so that some high-level officials of the Church of Light can know about her mission at any time. And the sound of the stop just now should have been from the instigator behind the scenes through a certain magical communication tool carried by the woman in black. It's just that since the other party is going to kill him, why do he stop when he is about to succeed?
"Bright. The same cold voice came out, and the woman in black seemed to be manipulated, her body unnaturally twisted an angle, looking at the mid-air behind her where the embers of chaotic magic had not yet dissipated, and muttered an inaudible word in her mouth, "Chaotic ......"
The woman in black turned her head and looked at Darko again, her azure pupils as deep as the sea, but there was a trace of sadness hidden in her calm eyes. The azure blue pupils changed again, returning to a dark brown color, and then gradually dilated and dilated. Her body slowly fell to the ground, and she had lost all her life, and she died like this.
Although the woman in black in the shadow of Aurora had a chance to kill Darko, the joint suppression of Darko and Adam was not something that could be easily dealt with, and she exchanged her life for that opportunity. Even if it is not stopped by the manipulators behind the scenes, it is only the result of double death.
But for Darko, being able to escape in front of an opponent who is one level higher than him has been a fluke. He sat on the ground and gasped for a few moments before he looked around, only to find that Adam was gone. It seems that Adam really just wanted to test Darko's strength, and after testing it, he left quietly.
Before I knew it, it was already dawn, and after a night of fighting, Darko just wanted to lie on the ground and sleep for a long time. However, he jumped to his feet, because the Alchemy Grand Prix was about to start this morning, and his battle with Adam had already gone deep into the mountains and forests, and he had not yet left St. Yerudo.
"Daktronics—Daktronics—Daktronics—"
Just when Darko was at a loss, a faint cry came from afar, and the cry couldn't help but echo among the mountains under the effect of the air amplification magic, and it was even more anxious.
Darko ignored his physical exhaustion and hurriedly responded loudly and shouted, "Master, I'm here—"
