The sound of arrows breaking through the air sounded again. Yavin8 -'-.=y-a--e·n=8'.com those present could not even see where the arrow came from, and the cultist who rushed at Princess Derel had already been shot. His throat had been pierced by a special elven arrow, but he hadn't completely lost his breath for a while, like a pheasant that had been choked by the throat, and a few dissonant syllables came out of tune, and then he fell to the ground, and his breath was interrupted in convulsions.

The only one who can shoot two shots in such a flash of lightning is, of course, Nicole, who is the elf of Nolda. She first used the guiding rifle "Tento" given to her by 6 Nozomi, and seriously injured the Iron Armored Khan whose strength had reached the 4th Golden Rank, and then quickly switched the weapon to her beloved Elven Bow.

An excellent Norda elven marksman is required to be able to complete at least 4 or more accurate bow shots within 5 seconds, and in the moment just now, from 6 Xi smashing the forbidden crystal to Nicole finally shooting the guard, it took a whole chapter of nearly 5ooo words to describe the thing, in fact, it was also completed in just five seconds. And in the time it was only a few deep breaths, villager Grant and the star archer "Robin" had only completed one shot, while Elf Girl had completed three shots - one guide gun and two bows and arrows - Nicole was not yet the top elven archer, but she was on the path to join them.

(System: Your subordinate Nivea Lin Ge kills one of the elite Flame Cultists and gains 499 experience points.) ）

So, when did Nicole become my subordinate, and what is the standard for defining "subordinates" or "teammates" in the system?

But what we need to know is that Nicole's major is a druid after all, and the skills of an archer can only be regarded as part-time. It is true that some of the Norda archery masters can shoot several or even a dozen arrows with a bow at once, and each one guarantees power and accuracy, but at this time, Nicole has not fully mastered this magic skill. With a single arrow, she took down the enemies who attacked Delelle and Eleanor, so naturally she couldn't pay attention to the one who swung her sword at Princess Celestia Evana.

All the masters present could no longer stop the long sword from piercing Princess Yoanna's chest...... Except for one person, the Emperor Iken, who had been regarded as a waste by both sides.

Emperor Iken, who had already devoured half of his soul by the golem, didn't know where the power suddenly burst out. With all his strength, he pushed his two daughters, who were holding him left and right, to 6 Xi's side, but his body lost his balance and could no longer stop the swing of the long sword.

The steel sword stabbed him in the back and out of his chest. Father's blood splattered on the faces of the two princesses who had not yet figured out the situation. They stared blankly at everything that had suddenly come into being, and for a moment it seemed as if even their souls had floated away.

This is too cruel for a few children...... Did they just learn that they had lost their mother, and now they were about to watch their father die in front of them?

6 Nozomi took a step forward and held up the emperor, who could no longer stand. Yavin 8 '=-.=y-a=Behind him came the sound of familiar footsteps at the same time—this time. After releasing the arrows, villager A, who dropped his longbow and showed his sword, and villager B, who was carrying a battle axe and a war hammer, had already rushed up.

"Bul, Grant, take them to safety at once!" 6 He ordered in a loud voice to the two servants.

After all, this human and a minotaur are good friends who grew up together, and they only need a look to achieve tacit cooperation. Villager B, who had grown to two meters and was no different in size from an adult minotaur, stretched out two arms that seemed to be twisted together and picked up the two older princesses, while villager A Grant picked up the two smaller ones one by one, turned around and ran.

The strength of the two of them has now reached the middle of the silver level, one is 4th and the other is 5th, and in front of the two strong female bosses on the opposite side, they are naturally just miscellaneous soldiers. But the strength is already much stronger than the group of cultist elites they carry. At least, the foot was not bad, and under the cover of 6 Xi, it quickly got out of the danger zone.

6 Nozomi was sure in his heart and breathed a long sigh of relief. Anyway, at least these children, who have a lot of appetite for themselves, have escaped.

(System: Complete the urgent mission "Future of the Holy Springs Royal", gain experience points, attribute points 2o, skill points 5, and Oakland Empire friendship +1.) ）

This so-called urgent mission was the "queen" who jumped out when she pressed the princesses and the little prince to appear. The condition for victory is to safely rescue all the bear children of the Dimahia family, and the condition for defeat is "the death of the little prince and any two or more princesses", and the penalty is "-1 opinion of the Auckland Empire, -9o% fertility rate of the Holy Springs royalty". Duration 5o years". 6 Xi has to admit that as he grows up, the tricks of system task punishment are really getting richer and richer, and he really doesn't know how powerful it is compared to a certain ball of light who only knows how to erase. However, after thinking about it again, this was clearly to force the rhythm of the Holy Spring Royal and Emperor Knous the Great to cut off their children and grandchildren, and he immediately felt a deep depression.

And. If you think about it carefully, Her Royal Highness the World's No. 1 Princess is also a member of the Holy Spring Royal, if this mission fails, wouldn't it mean that the possibility of having children between herself and Karin in the future is almost the same as winning the jackpot?

Emotionally speaking, although 6 Xi doesn't want to have children yet, it's just because he simply feels that he hasn't played enough, and it doesn't mean that he hates children. Yavin 8 '=-.=y-a=Like most people, he felt that such a life would be perfect if he could see his children grow up in the days to come. In addition, intellectually speaking, if Her Royal Highness the World's First Princess does not have her own direct descendants, there will be certain hidden dangers in the future inheritance of the Holy Spring Dynasty, which is not good news for the Auckland Empire or even the whole world.

Well, all of the above is a brain hole that 6 Nozomi did in a matter of seconds. To put it more bluntly, 6 Xi, who has a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, unless it is the kind of task that is obviously malicious to the trick, such as "saving ** silk" - that is, a task such as dancing with the Toman boy next to him, even if he encounters a D-level or even E-level task that has no nutritional value and no cost performance, he is happy to complete it, not to mention this kind of urgent task that is very appetizing.

However, if it was really just himself and Lim, it would be impossible for 6 Nozomi to rescue four powerless girls and a little boy whose physique was weaker than ordinary people in the midst of so many enemies...... Of course, the so-called righteous and unrighteous are more helpful, and a protagonist like 6 Xi has a good character and a clean face. Naturally, you can meet the friends who saved him everywhere. At the moment when the two sides were still confronting each other, he received a message from the Star Spirit Assassin Anjilai.

6 Nozomi assigned the mission to the Star Spirit Assassins to find and rescue the Toman boy who had been imprisoned by the Emperor in the Yongchen Palace, and then learn more about the situation from the other party. Of course. Since 6 Nozomi then met Prince Kalman, this mission naturally lost most of its significance, but 6 Nozomi did not order Anji to retreat - as soon as he heard that there was no use value, he didn't even bother to confirm the safety of others, such a disgraceful thing. 6 Nozomi still can't do it. He takes Lim to the Luna Hall to stop Miss Bellotina's brainwashing, while Angie continues to search for Tommen's trail.

As more and more people from various forces arrived, turning Yongchen Palace and even half of the imperial capital into a battlefield, the patrols and guards in the palace naturally became chaotic. Angie quickly found the place where Tomman was imprisoned, took advantage of the chaos to kill the soldiers who were still in the chaos, and released the prince, who had been imprisoned for nearly ten days—of course, the barbarian gladiator named Ofron, one of the "Four Monsters", was originally responsible for imprisoning and guarding Tommen's boys. But this guy may have been transferred away by the "queen", and he was not in his post at that time.

Angie gets orders to ensure the safety of Tomman Boy. At the moment, he wanted to protect the other party and leave the palace first, but this young man, who had been weak all his life, burst out with unprecedented determination and courage at this time, and wanted to ensure the safety of his parents and younger siblings. According to the usual Buddhas, the Star Spirit Assassin was originally going to directly knock the young man unconscious and take him away, but he happened to encounter several griffon knights who arrived from the Dragon Castle.

Under the siege of multiple enemies, Anji's strength could naturally get out, but he couldn't break through with a scrap boy who was almost helpless, and suddenly fell into a stalemate again. But the sound of their fight attracted another group of people—Nicole, villager Grant and villager B, plus Tomman Boy's close knight, Sir Tyrell, the son of the Duke of Lancaster.

This, of course, cannot be entirely blamed on luck. What we need to know is. As the next supreme leader of politics and religion of the Norda Elves, Miss Nivea Lin Ge's main profession is actually an elven druid, and she is a powerful spellcaster herself, coupled with her innate perception ability given by her ancient elven royal bloodline. It was easy for her to feel the vast range of magic and life fluctuations around her. The breath of 6 Nozomi, the breath of the friends who fight side by side, and the breath of the star spirit Anji who is often released by 6 Nozomi as a scout, the fluctuations of these magic sources are as familiar to the elf girl as a colleague who meets every day. She carries three boys with powers and perceptions that are far inferior to her own. Carefully bypassing several large-scale battles, he finally made peace with Anji in time.

With Nicole and them on board, the danger was quickly lifted. Everyone discussed it carefully, and felt that it was safer to meet with 6 Xi first, and as for the opinion of the Tomman boy himself, it was naturally ignored magnificently - this young man who had been weak all his life, in general, did not dare to express any opinion on the principle of the minority obeying the majority. Just now, he argued with Anji, which can be regarded as a manifestation of explosive seeds.

Ni used druid magic to buff everyone with a hidden aura before touching it. And the other party's two bosses, Miss Belutena of the Dragonborn Blood Clan, was seriously injured, and her own perception was badly affected, and as for the half-blood succubus's Flada, maybe all her attention was focused on 6 Xi, or maybe the black magic she used well was itself focused on curses and corrosion, rather than perception, and there was no such thing as Nicole.

Nicole's magic can't support the spiritual link between her and 6 Xi, but the star spirit, who is born with spiritual communication with her master, can act as a communication channel for her friends.

As a result, the classic hostage rescue operation, which can be called a textbook, began in this way, and it was a complete success......

If it weren't for the sacrifice made by Uncle Iken in the end, it would have been a textbook success. As a father, this very failed emperor was naturally successful, but his self-sacrifice seemed a bit redundant. You must know that the princess and prince present have all been engraved with a holy shield mark on their bodies, and once their lives are threatened, their bodies will immediately activate an extremely stable holy light shield. With the swords of those two cultist "miscellaneous soldiers", it was impossible to pierce the protection of the holy shield, and it was even possible to be automatically burned by the holy light.

This shield mark was indeed very hidden, so hidden that even the mighty Vrada Warlock was not visible. In fact, if 6 Xi didn't have kryptonite dog eyes, he wouldn't have noticed it at all—this must have been the handiwork of Miss Ether, the priest with the sword, right? At least 6 Xi didn't have this magic mark on the princess and the little prince before they left.

Although her person is no longer there, at the end of her life, she still left the last life talisman for her students. It is precisely because of this inscription that 6 Xi dares to take a risk.

6Hoping that the dying emperor in front of him, and listening to the princesses who began to cry loudly behind them, he decided not to tell them about it...... At the very least, to leave a majestic father figure in the hearts of the children, right?

"Ahh......h

He had obviously been mortally wounded, but his hands were tightly gripping 6 Xi's wrists, as if they were iron tongs.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, the children are all right, don't worry!" Comforting an uncle is really not my forte!6 Nozomi thought so, but said stiffly, "Baltoli...... Well, the cultists' conspiracy didn't succeed either! The generals are all right. And, well, Her Highness Katerina's army has entered the city, and the civil war is over! The empire will soon return to the peace and prosperity it deserves! Your Majesty!"

"Yes, give the country to Karin! she will do much better than me, and she will even do better than her father!" suddenly flashed a glimmer on the emperor's face that was impossible to look at. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the so-called return to the light.

"I am a failed emperor, but I can't be a failed husband and father, promise me, promise me, save my wife!" The emperor clenched 6 Xi's hand with his last strength, almost pinching him a little painfully.

"Your wife...... Your Majesty Selenthea, but ......."

"She's alive, she's alive, I know, she's alive......," the Emperor's voice was extremely high and low, and then he died in this staccato rhythm. He didn't let go of the hand that was holding 6 Xi until he died, and he maintained a standing posture until he died.

The era of the Sun King ended in the late autumn two years ago, and the era of Emperor Iken ended before it began, but 6 Xi had to admit that this reign must be ranked in the top ten of the previous emperors, and the king of the Holy Spring Dynasty, who was a great failure in all respects, looked like a real Dimahia when he died.

"Your last wish, I have received ...... Even if Her Majesty is really gone, I will burn the culprit down on your grave. 6 Xi said solemnly, and then, he just looked at the emperor, who had lost his life, and closed his eyes. (To be continued.) )

PS: Alright, Uncle Iken is officially leaving, let's give the ticket
