"Red-eyed idiot, this is Roktar City?"

"Hmm. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Another year has passed, and everything is still the same, except for the weeds that have increased.

Leaving our mounts in the outskirts, Lagersis and I walked close to my ruined homeland.

It seems that I don't want the sound of horses' hooves to disturb the silence, or that I don't want to hear the sound of horses here again.

There are still ruins and broken walls everywhere, and scattered charred and dilapidated wall stacks still quietly tell of the catastrophe that has been suffered.

The cold wind was blowing, and it seemed that it still carried the strong blood of four years ago.

"Here," I walked silently through the streets of what had once been, half-kneeling in the corner, gently brushing away the thick dust that had accumulated on the ground with my hands.

"Young master, Xiao Di knows, you will live too, I will wait for you, you must live!" It seems that I saw her sad expression again

"This is you and Ogi-" Lagersis interrupted my recollection, and here she seemed to be much quieter.

"Well," he said, looking around in disappointment, business as usual, the dark brown mark of the ground that once bled my blood still remains, "I was separated from her here, four years ago today. ”

"Red-eyed idiot, you come every year?"

"Well, if she's still alive, she'll come back to where we parted—"

"Nabal didn't mean ......"

"Yes, she's still alive, but—" I nodded silently, unconsciously expressing the worry that had been haunting me all this time, "why didn't she come to me?" Why didn't you tell me she's still alive? That Balming told me she hadn't forgotten me, why?! After a pause, I couldn't help but get more and more excited, "Xiao Di, what's wrong with her?!" Why did Nabal say that if I die, Ogi will be happier?! Why?! ”

"Hey, hey, hey! Red-eyed idiot, why are you so excited? It's not Nabal, how does Miss Ben know?! Lagersis was startled by my yelling and retorted.

"Oh, I'm sorry!"

"Excuse me? I'm sorry, that's it?! You idiot! As before, when you mention Xiao Di, you are so excited that you don't know who you are, and Miss Ben is so angry when she looks at it! ”

"Same as before?" I interrupted her in surprise, "Before?!" ”

"Ahh Lagersis was stunned, "It's nothing! That is...... That is—ah! Didn't you do that day by the lake—ah! Don't think about it! After saying that, she swung her fist with an embarrassed expression.

"Lakeside?" I parried as I recalled, "What lake? Yes! It was the day I grabbed your chest - wow! Flame bombs? The purple people are going to kill me! ”

"Forget it for Miss Ben!"

"You brought it up first! It's you—" I screamed and ran.

Behind him, the flaming bullets crackled and exploded.

was chased and beaten by her again, unlucky.

。。。。。。。。。。

"Now, red-eyed idiot, what about after you find Xiao Di?" After chasing me all afternoon, Lagersis, who had finally exhausted her energy, sat down on the ground and asked.

"Huh? Later? What's next? ”

"Bring me the water, I mean what are you going to do when you find Ogi?" Lagersis took the water bag and poured into the mouth of the bag, (where is the image of a princess in that presumptuous appearance?) "I'm dying of thirst, I'm so tired! ”

"After you find it?" I scratched my head, "I didn't think about it, I was going to spend my whole life looking for her-"

After finding Ogi? In the past four years, I thought that there was so little hope, and I was going to spend a lifetime looking for it, but I easily got a clue from Nabal, it seemed that Ogi was already close at hand, everything was so sudden, I really didn't think about what to do after finding Ogi.

Lagersis didn't notice my musings, and continued with her own words: "Don't you want to establish a territory, idiot? ”

"Territory?"

"Yes!" Lagersis pointed to the ruins around her, "Isn't this your hometown for red-eyed idiots?" Wouldn't it be possible to revive the city of Rokhtar by becoming a lord again? Build merit and become a nobleman! That's worthy—worthy of your abilities! ”

"Not interested...... Rebuilding the city of Roquetar? It's a hassle to become a lord - if you find Ogi, you might go to the East, right? ”

"Huh? To the East? What to do there? Lagersis seemed surprised by my answer.

"Rusya wants to go to the East, and I agreed with her."

"Ruthia...... again"

"Well, Rusya's life is much longer than that of us ordinary people, not to mention that I have a short life - I want to spend more time with her in the future, at least to make her happier while I am alive."

"Rusya, Rusya, Rusya," Lagersis pouted dissatisfiedly, "that demon half-breed is so good, why do you think about her in everything--hate!" ”

"Huh? Of course! She wouldn't chase me for hours. ”

"You!" Lagersis had a fireball in her hand again, and she was about to get angry - no, she was already angry.

"Huh?! Someone seems to have it! ”

"Don't make excuses! Where will there be people here--hmm! ”

Before she could finish speaking, I reached out to cover her mouth, "Shhhh You listen! ”

In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves could be faintly heard, from far and near, and it seemed to be coming in our direction.

"Is there really anyone? Could it be Ogi?! Lagersis asked, dissatisfied, pushing my hand away.

"Don't talk! Be quiet! ”

"Whew!"

The sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and following the sound, I saw that in the setting sun, a man and a horse were approaching alone, a cavalryman.

Both men and horses were tall and wore thick armor.

My heart that had just been filled with hope sank again.

It's not Ogi.

The people who came did not seem to notice us, but went straight through the corner where we were hiding, and went into the city.

In the moment of passing, we saw him clearly.

Skull Mask Helmet.

Dark gold-inlaid full-body armor.

A black giant sword on his back.

Although he had never seen him, his characteristics were already well-known on the mainland, not to mention that he now exuded a unique aura of dead silence all over his body.

- Burial of the head of the corps, Ashetaro!

How could it be him?!

What is he doing here?!

I gestured to Laxis, and we quietly followed.

The Ashetaro seemed to be familiar with the place, and had come with a purpose, and did not hesitate to enter the inner court after arriving in the inner city, and then stood silently in front of the central fountain in the inner courtyard garden, which had dried up, motionless.

Time flies, night has fallen, and Ashetaro still hasn't moved.

"What is he doing?" Lagersis finally couldn't help but whisper.

"I don't know," I said, shaking my head, uncertain, "I really guessed it by Grandpa Saint-Walve." ”

"St. Wolf? - Ahh Lagersis understood, too.

Grandpa St. Wolf's grandfather had guessed that the attack on Roctar four years earlier was behind the Burial Corps, and now the head of the Burial Corps, Ashetaro, has come to the ruins alone - whatever his purpose is, but he must have a connection to the city of Roquetar.

"Is your curse, the red-eyed idiot—"

"Shhhh See! ”

The first rays of moonlight shone through the clouds and spewed water into the fountain, and the fountain that had dried up suddenly spewed out a column of water, and at this moment, Asshetaro quickly drew the black sword behind him and swung a few swords at the water column in front of him.

The column of water gradually condensed along the trajectory of his sword, forming a rudimentary ice sculpture - an upright six-pointed star!

What is it?!

Before our surprise was over, Asshetaro had plunged his black sword straight into the center of the upright hexagram, and at the same time the hexagram collapsed with a flash of bright light, followed by a loud creaking sound, and the central fountain quickly sank into the ground, revealing a large, pitch-black hole, and Ashetaro jumped into it without hesitation.

"Secret passages? Where does it lead? When the central fountain rose again, Lagersis turned to look at me in surprise.

"I don't know." I was equally amazed.

"Don't know? Isn't this your home? ”

"It's my house, and I don't know! - But maybe it's the same as the altar they found," I guessed, "No wonder Grandpa St. Wove couldn't find it, it seems that it takes time and means to open the secret passage—do you know what kind of magic this is?" ”

"I've never heard of a magic lock like this," Lagersis shook her head, "Isn't that the Dao Altar in that case—could it be a Dao?" ”

"But isn't that six-pointed star magic array what we magicians often use?"

"Well, so weird—yes!"

Suddenly, the ground beneath our feet suddenly turned into a puddle of slimy mud!

"Mire? Who?! ”

Out of the darkness came a gray-robed magician, his wand glowing with a dim glow.

"Dare to sneak up on Miss Ben?!" Lagersis threw a flaming bullet out of her hand.

The magician waved his wand and blocked the attack.

Good! Now is the time! The moment the magic of the mire was interrupted, I just wanted to jump.

"Red-eyed idiots! Grasp! "Lagersis grabbed my arm and threw a flaming bullet at my feet!

"Boom!" With the power of the explosion, we jumped out of the mud puddle together.

"What are you doing so roughly?!" , I couldn't help but complain.

Fortunately, the purple race is quite measured, and the flame bomb is not very powerful, so I was not injured.

"Ha, this method is the easiest!" Lagers smirked, turned and rushed towards the magician, "He's Miss Ben's!" Miss Ben wants to let him know the fate of the sneak attack! ”

"Be careful—" I shut up halfway through the sentence.

How to put it, for that purple race, it is absolutely unnecessary to worry now.

Originally, this geomorphic magician who could perform the quagmire technique was not weak, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately converted his magic, and cast the flying rock technique while adding a shield to himself, and the release time of the two spells was extremely short, and a large number of rocks had been generated between him and Laxis, and they flew towards Lagersis together.

It's a pity that he was facing Lagersis.

The personal biography of Esther, the magic swordsman.

I saw that the purple sword in Lagers's right hand danced non-stop, easily hitting the rock released by the magician to the side, and at the same time the left hand continued to draw various handprints, and with the small magic array generated by the handprint, fireballs and air blades were constantly released, although the damage was not high, but it was enough to interfere with the magician's spell casting, coupled with the occasional sword stabbing forward, it didn't take long for the opponent to deal with primary magic that didn't need to be chanted.

- As a result, the magician was in a situation where he was constantly being pressed and beaten by Lagersis.

In the blink of an eye, the winner was decided.

"Hah!" With a smug cry, the magician's wand was cut off by Lagersis at close range, "Dare to sneak up on Miss Ben?" Don't you have a lot of guts?! Who are you? Why did you sneak up on Miss Ben? She asked, pointing her sword at the magician's neck.

The magician does not speak.

"Don't say? If you don't say I'll be—" Lagsy unceremoniously stabbed him in the shoulder.

The magician's face contorted in pain, but his lips remained tightly closed.

"Or don't say it? - Red-eyed idiot! Here you go! Lagersis beckoned to me, "Red-eyed idiot, you should have a lot of ways to get him to speak, right?" ”

"Needless to say?" I deliberately smirked and approached, "I'm pretty good at digging up information from the enemy's mouths, huh?!" ”

Unexpectedly, a shrill flute sound was heard not far away, followed by an overwhelming amount of paper flying towards us.

On closer inspection, the pieces of paper turned out to be yellow paper with patterns on them.

"Dao Fu! Laxis! Flash! Before I had time to think about it, I grabbed Lagersis and rolled to the side.

"Boom!" A violent explosion followed.

"Ahem! Cough! This is the power of the Dao Talisman?! It's so strong! Lagersis choked on the smoke and dust of the explosion and coughed, "Sister Sakura's Dao Talisman can only put a fireball?" - Red-eyed idiot, how did you know it was going to explode? ”

"I don't know, it's just that I recently encountered a strange thing related to the Dao Fu, and when I saw the Dao Fu, I felt dangerous - what about the magician?"

The smoke cleared, and the magician, who had just been subdued by Lagersis, was still standing in place, but his whole body had been blown to a bloody blur.

"It's cruel!" Looking at the bloody corpse, Lagersis almost gagged, and turned to face the direction where the Dao Fu was flying, "Who the hell is it?" ”

Under the moonlight, a man stood quietly.

A black head-covered robe.

Yellowish bark mask.

The thin hands held two stacks of Dao talismans.

- The Mask Man?!

How come?!

"Laxis," I clenched my sword in fear, "ready to run!" ”

"Run?! Red-eyed idiot, how dare you be—" Lagersis turned to see my look of fear and immediately understood, "He's strong?" ”

"Ready, throw a flaming bullet at that guy for a moment, and run as far back as you can—what?!"

In the darkness, two more masked men appeared to our left and right.

The same head-covered robe.

The same bark mask.

I gasped: "It's over...... Lagers, the Masked Man's target is me, I'll lure them away in a moment, you run. ”

"Don't! Let's go together! Don't want to leave Miss Ben behind! ”

"Obedient!"

"Don't! It's better to die than to die! Miss Ben wants to be with you! - It's a big deal to fight with them! Leave the front ones to me! After Laxis finished speaking, he recklessly rushed forward with his sword.

I hurriedly stopped: "Trust me! Can't fight! Run! ”

"Miss Ben don't!"

What to do? We can't stop the masked man's swift attack at all, last time even the artifact enchantment could only resist for a while, if it wasn't for the masked man's suicide last time, Rusya and I wouldn't have survived at all, not to mention that this time Lagersis and I faced three!

She shouldn't have been brought here.

At the very least, Lagersis must escape!

The mind is set!

"Listen to me! Run! I suddenly pushed Lagersis away and rushed straight towards the masked man holding the talisman, "Meteor Sword * Rush!" ”

"Dang!" The two sword-wielding masked men on the left and right shot together to hold my sword.

As I expected!

Now is the time!

Ignoring their follow-up sword moves, I scurried to one side of my body and ran forward diagonally past the Dao Fu Mask Man on the front!

Lure them away! How far can you run, how far you can run!

And yet - "Red-eyed idiot! Don't want to get rid of Miss Ben! With Lages' shout, several flaming bullets exploded around me and the Masked Man.

Rotten! I hurriedly turned around to block the attack of one of the masked men.

The other masked man pounced on Lagersis in response—

"Stupid! Run away—" I cried out in despair.

It's too fast!

Lagers's sword had barely had time to be raised halfway before the Masked Man had already rushed in front of her.

"Laxis—no—"

Everything was so fast, as soon as my screams sounded, a black shadow suddenly blocked in front of Lagersis like lightning, followed by a few crisp loud bangs, and all the masked man's sword moves hit the black shadow!

That's when I saw the dark shadow standing in front of Lagers.

Black Greatsword!

"Ga ......" The three masked men let out a strange cry at the same time, and they all turned to face the direction where the black sword was flying.

Not far away, Ashetaro was approaching step by step, and with a wave of his hand, the black sword flew obediently back into his palm.

Flying over was the Masked Man who had attacked Lagersis!

The masked man didn't wait for Ashetaro to get close to him, he jumped high into the air, and at the same time, the sword in his hand shook, and countless sword shadows shot out, and his whole person seemed to turn into a part of the sword shadow, and rushed towards Ashetaro in unison!

Same sword moves as I saw them last time.

No! Faster, faster!

However, a trick.

Yes, just one move!

I never thought that such a powerful masked man would not be able to catch a move!

I saw Asshetaro swing the giant sword in his hand at him, and the masked man was actually cut in half with the sword!

It's too strong!

The other two masked men were even more shocked than me, and after letting out an exclamation at the same time, one of them waved the Dao talisman in his hand, and the other rushed forward with his sword!

"Chance!" I took the opportunity to grab Laxis, who was already stunned, and said, "Run!" ”
