Seeing the blade retreat, the female thief did not stop, only to see her wave of both hands, and several claws flew out from the claw blade of her fist, but these claws did not attack the blade, but attacked Robnia under the blade.

The blade twisted, and used his back to withstand the incoming claws on Robnia's behalf. I saw that the linen clothes worn by the blade were suddenly torn by the claws, and a puff of cloth crumbs flew all over the sky, and several huge claw marks were left on the back of the blade, and the bones were deeply visible.

Robonia let out a scream, she didn't expect the werewolf in front of her to fight to get hurt and help her stop the blow.

The blades were wounded one after another, only to feel that his eyes were dizzy, his qi and blood were empty, and he stumbled a few times under his feet, and almost fell to the ground.

"Master!" Ward was anxious when he saw that the blade was injured, and quickly ran to the blade with Stephanie in his arms, and stretched out a hand to hold the crumbling blade.

The blade stared at the pair of silver-glittering fists in the female thief's hand, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Epic artifact?"

In this world, a weapon that can purify the enchantment power of an artifact can no longer be thought of by the blade except for an epic artifact that is higher than the artifact level.

"That's right!" the female thief replied coldly, "This pair of fist gloves was used by Vanier, who was recognized as the number one thief in the world by the whole continent at that time, five hundred years ago. ”

"The epic artifact 'Ruthless', how can you have such a thing?" Ravnia asked, with a look of surprise in her eyes when she heard this.

Because she suddenly remembered an incident that happened when she was a child.

More than ten years ago, in the dark forest in the northeast of the continent, a large number of undead creatures suddenly appeared. Led by an undead general, these undead creatures rushed out of the dark forest like raging waves and struck into the human world.

The human kingdom of Kadia, adjacent to the Dark Forest, was the first to suffer.

Faced with a sudden attack by the undead army, the army of the weakened human kingdom was defeated after only a short period of resistance. And the only Holy Rank powerhouse in the Kingdom of Kadia, the Bronze-Rank Paladin Correll, was defeated and killed in a one-on-one battle with the commander of the undead army, the unnamed undead general.

Immediately after that, news came out that the undead general who successfully killed the paladin Correll did not actually have the strength of a Saint-rank powerhouse, but only had a strength that was as close to a Saint-rank powerhouse as possible. However, the undead general has a pair of extremely powerful weapons, that is, a pair of fists used by the continent's number one thief Vanir five hundred years ago - the epic artifact 'Ruthless'.

On the Northumbed continent, except for the 'arcane weapon' that is only known to a few people, the 'epic artifact' can be called the highest level of the way of refining.

Legend has it that these 'epic artifacts' were created and used by the gods themselves, and many gods gave them to the strongest in the mortal world who believed in them, so that they could protect their followers.

With the outbreak of fierce wars between various religions that believe in different gods, not only those who are strongest in the mortal world, but also the gods have fallen in large numbers, which has also caused many 'epic artifacts' to begin to wander on the continent.

Once a mortal person holds an 'artifact', they can greatly increase their combat power level, so that they can often kill people with a higher combat power level than themselves, let alone hold an 'epic artifact'!

Even if most mortals can only exert one-twelfth of the original power of the epic artifact, the help they have received is immeasurable!

Five hundred years ago, Vanier, who was known as the Saint Thief, was far from being able to be an ordinary Saint-Rank powerhouse, but it was also by virtue of a pair of epic artifacts 'Ruthless' that he could be invincible among the many Saint-level powerhouses on the continent for a while, and it was difficult to meet opponents, and even retreated in the pursuit of a God-level powerhouse.

And five hundred years later, the undead general who had not stepped into the realm of the Holy Rank was able to kill a paladin by relying on the power contained in the epic artifact 'Ruthless' in his hand.

Therefore, as soon as the news of the resurgence of the epic artifact 'Ruthless' spread, it immediately shook the entire continent.

Byzantium, the number one power in the human world, separated from the Kingdom of Kadia by the Kingdom of Chimon and the Federation of Genoa, quickly moved into action. Under the noble slogan of resisting the invasion of evil creatures and saving the human compatriots of the Kingdom of Cadia, the Byzantine Empire sent an army of 150,000 troops, under the command of Marshal Alan Og Heywood, the 'god of war', to forcibly 'borrow' the Kingdom of Chimon and the Federation of Genoa, and slaughtered the Kingdom of Cadia in the northeast.

What is particularly striking is that in addition to Marshal Alan Auger Heywood, the commander of the army who is a Bronze Sword Saint, there are also two Bronze Saint Rank powerhouses who belong to Byzantine nationality.

Although the slogan of the Byzantine army was beautifully shouted, its true purpose was soon revealed. As soon as the 150,000 troops set foot on the territory of the Kadia Kingdom, they immediately divided 50,000 troops to block the various border arteries of the Kadia Kingdom, intending to prevent other powers on the mainland from sending troops into the Kadia Kingdom to 'rescue' the people of the Kadia Kingdom, who were also human compatriots.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows at a glance that the Byzantine Empire's expedition this time is largely intended to be for the epic artifact 'ruthless'.

At this time, after the undead army invaded the kingdom of Kadia and organized several massacres in a planned manner, transforming human corpses into new undead soldiers, its number of soldiers had reached more than 200,000.

However, since most of the soldiers in this undead army were the lowest-level skeleton soldiers, and the high-level undead lacked high-level combat power, the undead army was quickly defeated in the face of the 100,000 elite soldiers from the Holy Empire's expedition, although they were superior in numbers. And the undead general who commanded the undead army saw that the human race had actually come to three Saint-level powerhouses in one breath, and he was shocked, and immediately made a decision before the battle, abandoned the undead army, and turned around and fled to his lair in the dark forest.

Located in the northeastern part of the Northumbered continent, the Dark Forest covers an area of one million square kilometers. There are many kinds of monsters in the forest, including many high-level demonic beasts with strong combat power, and it is a dangerous place in the famous continent. Although the 100,000 elite soldiers of Byzantium easily defeated the undead legion that had been slaughtered from the dark forest, once the remnants of the undead army retreated into the dark forest, they did not dare to pursue further.

However, for the Holy Rank powerhouse, although the Dark Forest can be called the Longtan Tiger's Den, it is not an inaccessible place.

The Imperial 'War God' Marshal Allen and the other two Saint-Rank powerhouses pursued and killed the undead general all the way. In the end, in the old lair of the undead general, in a ruined castle in the dark forest that had been abandoned for an unknown number of years, and who built it, three human saint-rank powerhouses teamed up to kill the undead general and captured the epic artifact 'ruthless' in his hand.

Subsequently, the Byzantine army returned from the kingdom of Qadia, and the epic artifact 'Ruthless' was presented to the then Emperor Selassie XXV as a sacrifice by the army. After Selassie XXV got the 'ruthlessness', he was overjoyed, and in order to show off his martial arts to the surrounding countries, he specially prepared to hold a 'Divine Soldier Conference' in the imperial capital Cataloland, inviting all countries to come and see the 'ruthless' style.

Unexpectedly, three days before the 'Divine Soldier Conference' was about to be held, the 'ruthless' hidden deep in the palace and guarded by layers was inexplicably stolen, and the 'Divine Soldier Conference' was naturally aborted. At that time, the envoys from various countries who came to watch the 'Divine Soldier Conference' had arrived in Catalan one after another, and now there was such a big mess in front of the envoys of various countries, and the anger of Selassie XXV can be imagined.

can steal the 'ruthless' in the heavily guarded Byzantine deep palace, in addition to the extraordinary skills, I am afraid that it will not work without the cooperation of the palace. Selassie XXV, after investigating the 'ruthless' theft to no avail, was furious and beheaded all the palace guards who guarded the 'ruthless'.

This incident was widely implicated in the past, and many people lost their lives because of it, which was a major event that happened in Byzantium that year, and was discussed by countless people, so although Robonia was young at the time, she also remembered this incident deeply.

At first glance, the epic artifact 'Ruthless' appeared, and Robonia was greatly surprised. And now the 'ruthless' has fallen into the hands of a mysterious woman who has a familiar feeling, and his social circle is all high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the imperial capital.

Thinking through the twists and turns, Robonia couldn't help but sink in her heart. What kind of force was this that dared to steal artifacts from the palace, and why did they try to murder themselves?

Raffonia was full of doubts in her mind, but she also knew that now was not the time to think about them. The top priority is to figure out how to escape safely from a level 7 female thief who holds an epic artifact.

Ravnia suddenly said to the blade in a voice that was almost inaudible, "Quick, loosen the rope that binds me and let me down." ”

In fact, after knowing that the weapon used by the female thief was an epic artifact, Blade already regretted it in his heart. He didn't know why he didn't think about it after he rushed out of the Red Willow Forest because he saw Robonia being captured, but instead he caused trouble for himself. You must know that the relationship between the girl in his arms and him is simply that they are enemies of each other, and he was betrayed by the 'Night Blade Leopard' bandit group, completely because of the girl in his arms.

At this moment, Blade was thinking about whether he should hand over Robnia so that he could get out. But after hearing Robonia whisper to him, he hesitated for a moment, and did as she was told.

He swept his hand over the rope that bound Robonia seemingly casually, and with a flick of his sharp fingers, he broke the rope that bound Ravnia. Then, as soon as he let go of his hand, he let Rovernia go from his arms.

When the female thief saw the sharp blade's movements, she did not take the opportunity to stop it. She knew that Robonia was a level 7 magician, but she was confident that as long as she had the epic artifact 'Ruthless' in her hands, it would be easy to deal with a level 9 warrior and a level 7 magician, not to mention that the level 9 orc warrior had already been injured by 'Ruthless' in the previous battle.

The female thief glanced at Blade and Robonia, and said lightly: "It's not too early, I'll send you on your way! It's also your honor to die under the epic artifact." ”

Before the female thief could finish speaking, she saw Robonia suddenly reach out her right hand and slap a beautiful jade bracelet on her left wrist, and then saw an elaborately decorated magic scroll appear in her right hand.
