"Ellie!"

"Okay." Hearing Merlin's shout, Ellie waved her right hand, and the afterglow of the Demon Breaker appeared in her hand. With a strong flick, the long sword crossed an arc and went straight to the Emperor's Nest.

The flame shield appeared with the attack of the long sword, but it only flickered for a moment, and it was shattered by the power of the long sword to break the demon, and with a loud bang, the branches used to make the bird's nest flew all over the sky, and the long sword had already sunk into the ground, which could be inserted into the edge of the golden egg in the bird's nest, and if it was a little further away, the bird egg would be shattered by the long sword. As the afterglow was inserted, a large red magic array flashed under the bird's nest, and the magic flame began to rise in the circle, ready to generate another magic shield, but just half of the generation, the flame and the magic array turned into starlight and dissipated into the air.

This time, there was nothing to stop the crowd from taking the eggs.

Everyone thought so, but the sound of an object shattering made everyone's hearts chill.

"Ka...... Ka...... ......"

It was the sound of ice cracking, and everyone was shocked, and their eyes looked away from the golden egg and looked at the ice coffin that sealed the emperor bird. At this time, cracks had begun to appear on the upper edge of the ice coffin, and the cracks continued to expand as the sound of ice cracking. Seeing this, Nina quickly adjusted her mana and increased her output, hoping to repair the ice, but it was useless, and the scars on the ice were getting bigger and denser.

Edwell on the side had nothing to do, this was Nina's magic, and if he helped himself, he might cause the magic to collapse instantly.

"Hurry up." Nina was sweating on her forehead, and she could only slow down the increase in some of the cracks slightly.

Nina's words woke Gloria from a dream, and she hurried to the nest, ready to take the golden egg before the emperor bird could break the seal. However, when she was still a few meters away from being able to collect all the golden eggs, she was stopped by a voice.

"Oh no, come back quickly!"

It was Merlin's voice, and even if she stopped it in time, she couldn't stop Gloria. Although Gloria stopped running as soon as she heard the sound, she was so fast that she slid forward a distance under her feet, and watched as she rushed into a huge magic circle that was rapidly expanding. A hint of fear broke into her mind, and she wanted to get out of here immediately, but it was too late.

In an instant, a giant pillar of fire measuring thirty meters wide erupted, engulfing Gloria.

"Big sister!"

Algert was so anxious that he was about to rush towards the pillar of flames, despite the bloody appearance, but only after taking two steps was he grabbed by Edwell's back collar and threw him to the ground.

"Idiot, don't go over, she's fine."

"What?" Listening to Edwell's words, Algert's face was full of shock.

In just three seconds, the pillar of flame vanished, and the ground smelled of burnt and smoke. Gloria was defensive, without any scars on her body. A golden shield was covered with a blue shield, and the double protection kept Gloria intact, isolating the flames and temperature, so that she was not harmed. They are shields used by Ellie and Phylix, respectively. As the logistics support personnel in the plan, they had already released their magic as soon as they discovered the magic array, which ensured Gloria to be thorough.

After the flames, Gloria looked at the double shield in disbelief, spread her hands, and realized that she was all right. Then she suddenly remembered her current situation, her eyes looked at the ice coffin, the cube did not melt because of the flames, but it was also covered with scars, and the sound of shattering became more and more dense, Gloria gritted her silver teeth, ready to take away the golden egg first, but when she looked at the golden egg, she found that the golden egg was actually covered with a layer of flame shield again, this time not on the bird's nest, but only wrapped three golden eggs, and the golden egg wrapped in the magic shield could not be loaded into the space ring.

"Damn." Gloria scolded.

And after this moment of hesitation, the ice coffin that sealed the emperor bird could no longer resist its power, and the magic array covering the ice coffin was destroyed because of the cracks.

Wings spread, countless flame blasts flicking their tails and slamming them down on Gloria. There was a roar on the ground, causing Gloria to flee in disarray, but luckily she wasn't too far away from the crowd, and finally escaped into the earth defense barrier that Merlin had built.

The earthy barrier was chilling, and the frozen soil was getting stronger. Merlin was holding Felix's hand, a compound magic unleashed by the two of them.

"It's too powerful, even if we don't use all our strength, we can't resist it." Listening to the roar outside the barrier, Gloria wiped her face and said, her face covered in dust, like camouflage painted.

Because it was an earthy barrier, it was dark inside, and Ellie released a small ball of light to illuminate it inside, and also illuminated everyone's lost faces, except for Nina.

This task is not completed, almost everyone thinks so. Since the start of the Triwizard Tournament, they may have been the first brave to fall in the second game.

An air of despair lingered in everyone's hearts, and suddenly, Merlin raised her head and looked at Ellie, her eyes seemed to be shining abnormally, and the girl was so frightened by Merlin's stare that she took a step back and hid behind Nina.

"Ellie, can you seal the Emperor Bird?" Merlin asked suddenly.

"Merlin, don't be kidding, neither of us can seal the emperorbird." Edwell said that he didn't know what Merlin thought, and would ask Ellie a priest to seal the emperor bird. If memory serves, the Priest's sealing technique is basically only useful for evil things, such as the undead.

"No, I'm serious." Merlin said that others didn't know but she did, that Ellie had been to the sixth or even the seventh floor of the library that Osford had forbidden students to enter, and that she didn't think that girls had gone there to read books for nothing. Judging from the information she collects from girls, Ellie can be said to be a scholar, although she will be much worse in practice, as incompetent as alchemy.

"Think about it, Ellie, is there anything you can do." Merlin continued to persuade.

"I ......" Ellie didn't know why Merlin had taken a fancy to her, as if she knew herself better than she did......

“…… There seems to be a magic that works, but I've never used it, so I don't know if it's ......," Ellie said with some hesitation.

"No problem, I trust you." Merlene's eyes lit up.

"......" Ellie was speechless and was silent for a moment, "Do you really want me to come?" I'm afraid of messing up......"

"Is there anything worse than now...... "Gloria said on the side.

"Really?" Ellie thinks about Nina, who is her backbone at this time.

Ellie nodded her head slightly.

"Okay, then I need a minute to release the magic."

"No problem, Merlin can block it." Algerette looked relaxed, but the next moment Merlin broke his trust.

"I can hold on for ten seconds, and we can't run out of mana." Merlin said. It turned out that when everyone's eyes were focused on Ellie's body, they didn't notice that the surrounding barrier was already full of rifts.

"Then let's fight it." Aljet took out another spear covered with a white cloth from the spatial ring and said, the previous one was thrown behind the emperor bird and still hadn't picked it up.

The new spear attracted everyone's attention, but there was no time for everyone to delve into it.

- Because the magic barrier has been shattered by the Emperor Bird.
