Chapter Seventy-Four: The Sword of Rebirth
"Sister?" Zelos looked in amazement at the assassin in front of him who had just been captured by him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It turned out to be his own sister Irelia? But in the battle just now, almost the knife focused on the fatal point, without the slightest mercy, and it was completely a killer style.
"Of course, I came here on purpose just to try your swordsmanship, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful." Irelia said with a smile. "Hmm...... Your arm strength has improved a lot, at least as much as you can remember, but your defense is worse in the next game, and your sword is always prone to stabbing high. ”
He let go of his hand, and the sword fell to the ground with a thud, and he breathed a sigh of relief. "There's no way, the old problem of the cavalry, we still need to work hard to correct it."
"Let's go out for a walk. Your room is so cold, why don't you go home and stay? Irelia grumbled. Zeroth's office and bedroom were connected to each other, both in towers on the city walls, and this stone building heated up quickly but cooled faster, and it was inevitable that the room would always be cold at night.
"It was a tradition that when in office, the city guards had to live in the towers of the city walls. It's always been like this. How can I change it? ”
"Then don't burn the fireplace?" Irelia glared at her brother in disgust, took him by the arm, and walked up the spiral staircase to the city wall, the stone wall reflecting the bright moonlight.
"You know how dangerous it was just now? In case I miss ......"
"I'm afraid you'll let me." Irelia clutched her chest and coughed twice, it seemed that the elbow blow was really heavy. "But I didn't even think you'd throw away your sword. A sword is the soul of a swordsman. ”
"I'm not a good swordsman," Zelos laughed and laughed at himself, "my life is gone, there's nothing left." ”
"You're right." Irelia said.
"I'm afraid my dad will be angry with me, if he really sees this scene." He lowered his head, and his steps slowed down.
"Actually, he thinks highly of you."
Zelos chuckled and shook his head, "Then why is he reluctant to teach me swordsmanship?" ”
"I don't know, until the end, he didn't mention anything about this flying sword technique. Suffice it to say that one day, the Supreme Blade will find its owner. Irelia muttered, suddenly feeling that the topic was too heavy. By the way, you're doing it today, very well. ”
"Huh? You're saying I ran down to the bottom of the third thing? Zelos smiled too.
"No, it's the courage. How many people in this world have the courage to show their cowardice in front of everyone? Knowing that he would be ridiculed, he still didn't run away, which is not something ordinary people can do. Many soldiers in the army are beginning to admire you. ”
The news shook his heart.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. In the final of tomorrow's sword competition, many people are betting on you to be the champion! ”
"I'm fighting for the hope." Zelos laughed, the night air was so cool - he hadn't smiled so happily in a long time, always surrounded by existential or imaginary malice, and he always had a cold face.
His laughter hovered over the cold moonlit night, until it reached the ears of a crow in the air.
The crow let out a low cry and turned sharply south.
……
Soraka crossed his legs and looked at Shen and Chen, who were practicing in the square.
The sky was full of stars, and Soraka remembered how long ago they seemed to her as living gods. She could communicate with them, be guided by them, but now they were finally dead again.
Like a dead ornament.
Shen wore a black cloak and held a long sword, and his every move was Gu Jing Wubo, countering every fierce move of the dust. Such a costume was deliberately arranged by Reginald as a special training for Dust. However, this outfit does look a little like General Du Kecao.
What he wants is to make the dust not lose his cool because he sees the enemy.
Her chin was gently resting on her knees, the last time she was like this, she sat quietly next to her and watched someone practice her sword, and that person was still easy. Right now......
Where are you?
A figure slowly sat down beside her, and Soraka felt the temperature suddenly appear beside her.
She turned her face to beside her was Reginald, the white-robed magician, his cheeks sunken in the shadow of the twilight.
"Or ...... Nothing to say? Soraka asked him with her eyes down.
Reginader's face looked a little solemn, "No, we have tried our best, but there is no news about Master Yi." It's like...... He disappeared out of thin air......"
Soraka lowered her head, tears rolling in her eyes.
"It's going to be fine, he's still alive, I'm sure. We'll find him. He pressed Soraka's shoulder lightly.
"Lord Reginard." A psyker came to report. "Lady Kalmar has everything in place."
"Very well, by the way, pass the order to Barton, continue to tell those unlucky ones to get up and run in circles tonight, and be sure to tell them that this is my order!"
The psyker looked a little reluctant to be dispatched by the outsider, but Karma had no choice but to do so, and walked to the army barracks and gave the order.
"Let's go, Soraka, I bet the night is still long."
……
It was a large hall of gray, and the withered hues of magical light had tinted the entire space with an eerie hue.
In the middle of the main hall, a person sat cross-legged, floating in the air. The warrior robe on his body could no longer see the original color, his whole body was wrapped in dark black energy, he closed his eyes tightly, and the churning dark energy slowly merged into his body with his breath and breath.
This person is easy.
"The so-called infinity is to create the pole with nothingness, but have you really reached the realm of emptiness?"
"Guard? It's ridiculous! If you have a concern, how can you let go? ”
"The world is nothing but your heart, everything is empty, but your heart and sword are in heaven and earth. What about thousands of living beings? But dust! ”
"Kill the spirits of the world, accept all things with a sword, and sacrifice the sword as a holy!"
The seductive whisper echoed in his ears over and over again. Yi's eyelids trembled, and large droplets of sweat kept oozing from the corners of his forehead.
"Who do you love?"
Yi's lips slowly squirmed, and he made a dry voice: "Don't love anyone." ”
"Who loves you?"
"No one."
"Excellent! Wake up, Infinite Sword Master, easy! This land is on the verge of extinction, along with its decaying traditions! I give you a new life, give you a sword path that is unparalleled in the world, and bring those who stick to the ancient path to the grave! ”
He opened his eyes suddenly, and a black mist churned in his dark brown pupils, staring at the dark head high above the throne.
Sindra smiled.
"Endless hunger and thirst will soon take over your body and mind, easy. It was an unbearable pain and suffering. Your only option is to satisfy this hunger. ”
She paused for a long time, and the dark orb surrounding her body also quieted down due to her pause, and even the sound of energy stirring in the orb suddenly stopped.
"Now...... I will grant you the keys to salvation. ”
