Chapter 114: Back to the Origin, the Sword Left Behind
In Fang Ou's hand was the Zealot mark of Heath, and the gauzy-like light shot into the thick mist, which automatically retreated to both sides, revealing a stone path.
Ahead was the road to Grey Oak Square, where the flames lit up the mist and revealed pink, so that even before setting foot in it, the Plover could feel the scorching heat on its face.
Without hesitation, he stepped into it.
Momiji followed him down the trail, followed by Sylvid and Shesta, then by Parker rubbing his ass and muttering, and finally Dictor and Rune.
The elder knight and the president of the Black Goat Chamber of Commerce are one after the other.
The road wasn't long, and you could even see the end of the fire and the grey oak square.
Fang Yu was the first to walk out of the alley, and he saw a slender figure, standing on the square.
Misu tilted her head, the light of the fire reflected in her face, and not far from her was a dragon in the shape of a shadow—dark scales like black smoke, and eyes dark like skeletons under the jagged horns.
It doesn't seem to have finally woken up, but it has already recovered.
Misu glanced back at everyone, "Why are you here, Mr. Archon, have the citizens left?" It seems that we will have to fight this monster to the death, and there is little hope, but we must try. ”
In this illusion, the lady seems to have inherited her previous memories.
Archon? Momiji Fox glanced at Fang Yu suspiciously, a little curious about what had happened before.
Misu looked at Luan and smiled slightly, "Lune, I lied, in fact, I knew that it was dangerous from the beginning. But if you're going to lose your temper with me today, wait until you get out of here, okay? ”
"I've been waiting for thirty years, and I'm not in a hurry for this moment, but I lost my sword, and I haven't picked it up since." Luan replied lightly.
Thirty years ago, the 'young businessman' who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot did not complain as much as he had done before. Thirty years have dyed his temples white, allowing him to spend the long time of his life and become quiet.
His tone seemed to be just saying something very ordinary.
Misu was slightly surprised, as if she had experienced such a change. She smiled softly, pulled out her other spare sword, and handed it to him. "This is my father's sword, don't lose it."
"So will your father beat me up if he knows you're giving it to a stranger?"
"Maybe you'll be familiar with it soon—"
The lady smiled, a little cunning.
Lune pursed his lips, took the sword without saying a word, and then turned to look at the behemoth in the square.
The others also drew their own weapons.
Momiji looked at this scene with a little surprise, and she asked Fang Yu: "That person seems to be our employer, who is that woman?" Isn't the knight with you, and how do they seem to know each other? ”
But Fang Yu didn't answer her.
He only watched in silence, the disaster of the past had reduced Dorifin to ruins, but people's memories still haunted the former city.
This made him sigh slightly.
Thirty years later, Lune-Lincius was no longer the young man he had seen in his vision, he was no longer young, he was even getting old. Thirty years is almost half of a life for a mortal, and in this half of his life, does he always remember what happened on that day?
Fang Yuan then turned around and looked at Nicol Bolas.
That was probably the true form of the Dark Dragon, and it took up most of the gray oak square just by lying there, many times larger than it was when the traveler rested.
"That's a dragon!"
Parker looked a little curious, he said: "I think before it wakes up, let's give it a while, you know this kind of world leader, sometimes the group is wiped out at 1%." ”
But Nicol Bolas suddenly opened his eyes, amber-like, vertically prided.
A little golden flame in the depths of his eyes.
It slowly raised its head and looked condescendingly at everyone who entered the square. "I've been waiting for you for a while, human."
It was Nicol Bolas's voice.
Low, hoarse, very different from before.
This means that she has regained her own power.
Parker screamed in fright, and quickly lowered the crossbow in his hand to show his innocence: "Ah, I didn't say anything just now, honorable lady Dragon! ”
"Can you please not be so ashamed." Momiji glanced at the guy.
And Fang Yu only looked at each other.
Nicol Bolas's tone was a little snarky: "Look at the way you guys are now. ”
"Do you have any questions about who will be the winner?"
"The power of yesteryear has come back to me, and I haven't experienced it in a long time — and you."
It bared its sharp fangs and sneered, "I'll surprise you." ”
"Unfortunately, there are no surprises, Nicol Bolas." Rune replied as he looked up at the big guy without fear.
"Thirty years ago, you were defeated in this place." The older knight, armed with a sword, said the same.
"You must have been just as invincible at the time, but you ended up stuck in this place, didn't you?" Momiji looked at the two of them, and also raised his head to speak to the dragon without showing weakness.
"Enough!"
Nicol Bolas roared angrily, instantly enraged, and swept towards everyone with one claw.
But the older knight raised his right hand, and a golden shield flashed in midair, blocking the blow. Everyone looked at this scene with some surprise, at the big golden net.
Especially Fang Plover and Sylvid.
The golden web of light seemed so familiar to the two of them.
Nicol Bolas looked at the shield of light in shock and anger: "This is the power of that woman!" ”
Misu slowly walked to the front, she looked at Diktor, slightly relieved: "Mr. Dikter, you really haven't forgotten our promise. ”
The older knight stared at the dark dragon and replied without looking back, "Thirty years ago, I have never forgotten day and night, I have sworn a heavy oath, and the rest of my life will exist only for this moment." ”
"Thank you, it's not just for me."
Of the three, only Lu looked at the golden web of light with a somewhat complicated expression.
"So what should we do?" Momiji couldn't help but ask the latter. She finally realized that this strange lady was the one who was in charge of this battle.
Misu looked at Nicol Bolas and replied, "Nicol Bolas is the best of the dark dragons, and only Galapeia can pose an effective threat to it, so you can cover me in the fight, preferably by attacking its once wounded eyes." ”
But Momiji looked at the sword in Misu's hand.
Although there was no doubt that the sword was clearly the Fairy Holy Sword Galapeia, she seemed a little hesitant: "But that sword ......"
She remembered that in the previous scene, the Blade of False Victory had been destroyed by the Courier.
Before she could finish speaking, Nicol Bolas was already laughing wildly: "Without the Blade of False Victory, she is just a phantom, and even if you still have some of that woman's powers, what can you do?" ”
The dragon's eyes sparkled with an unstoppable light.
"In this scenario, without the blade of false victory, I am an invincible existence." As she spoke, she spat out a mouthful of flames toward the square.
The golden web of light shattered in an instant.
"Get out of the way!"
Misu shouted.
Everyone scattered out of the way, dodging the spreading flames.
"Mr. Dickert!" The lady shouted again.
The older knight nodded, and as soon as he reached out to Nicol Bolas, a golden light shot out of his hand and shot into one of the dark dragon's wings.
Fang Yu also released the Walker III, and Momiji took out the Annihilator QV700 behind him.
"Miss Sylvide," he called out, "you go and occupy the high ground." ”
"Be careful, Captain." Sylved nodded slightly, opened the buckle of the suitcase, took out the magic guide gun and assembled it in twos and threes, turned around and disappeared into the alley with her maid.
"What about me, what about me?" Parker exclaimed.
Fang Yu glanced at this guy: "Do you know that the Paparals have a racial talent?" ”
"What?"
"I'm sure I won't die, so I'll be blessed."
"What, this is differential treatment!" Parker yelled in anger.
However, Fang Yu didn't expect him to do anything as a main cartographer, a nightingale, or a deputy crossbowman, anyway, this guy himself would hide himself well, so he didn't have to worry about it.
And the other side.
The golden light in the hands of the elder knight shrouded the dragon, and the latter seemed to be terrified of the power, and it cried out, "You abominable worms—"
But it spurted left and right, but it couldn't break free, and it could only breathe fire again and again for a while, causing everyone in the square to be in danger.
Of all the people, only Fang Plover was the lowest-level, and he was almost caught up by the fire cone if he ran a little slower, but luckily Momiji rushed up from behind and knocked him out, narrowly avoiding this flame spit.
However, Momiji himself was injured, and he was there clutching his burned right arm.
Fang Yu hid behind a broken wall and looked at each other, a little careless: "I'm sorry, if I run to the right, I should be able to dodge." ”
Hongye glanced at him: "Will you be able to do it in the future?" If I hadn't insisted on following up this time, you'd be hanging in this place. ”
Fang Yu thought to himself that he might not be hanging in that place after this fire burned, don't forget that he still had that strange mark on his hand, but the other party was injured for himself, so naturally he couldn't say anything like this.
He could only touch his nose in embarrassment.
Momiji was angry when he looked at this guy like this.
Then the two of them poked their heads out, only to see Misu moving quickly through the square, to the other side of the dark dragon, she turned to look back, and shouted again, "Rune, Mr. Diktor!" ”
The older knight was already in a stalemate with Nicol Bolas, and when he heard this shout, he let go of his hand, and the golden light in his hand suddenly disappeared.
Nicol Bolas would not have expected the other party to suddenly let go, and his whole body stood upright and crashed backwards.
It had been a tall luxury hotel, but it burned to the ground in the flames, and it collapsed in an instant under the weight of its weight.
However, the dragon's scale defense is amazing, and it is immune to fire, which at most makes it a little out of balance.
Nicol Bolas screamed, struggling to get back to his feet, but in his amber vision, a man climbed onto a nearby rooftop, swooping into his eyes.
It was none other than Rune, who was wielding the sword that Misu's father had forged.
While the mortal sword posed little threat to the dragon, Nicol Bolas was long past that time of hubris, roaring and sweeping towards the dragon with a wave of its wings.
Rune rolled forward on the roof, dodging the blow, causing the dragon's wings to collapse half of the room. But he didn't expect Nicol Bolas's blow to be a feint, and the real killer move was still on its tail.
"Be careful, Mr. Rune!"
Fang Yuan's reminder came a little late.
Rune-Lincius didn't notice in any direction Nicol Bolas's tail swept in from it, and it flipped like a whip in mid-air, hitting him in the lower abdomen.
The former was instantly whipped out, flew across a street, and landed on the other side of the square.
"Rune ——!" Misu's voice was heartbreaking.
When Fang Yu saw this scene, he ran in that direction without thinking about it.
"Cover me, Miss Momiji." He shouted before leaving. Momiji couldn't help but be angry: "You guy, why do you always like to act casually without permission-"
But Fang Yu certainly didn't act without a head.
It's just that the direction where Lune is now is exactly the one he's been looking for.
On the other side, Misu saw Fang Yuan's move, gritted his teeth and turned around, the opportunity on the battlefield was fleeting, and they didn't have much opportunity to hesitate in this battle.
Sacrifice is also inevitable -
Nicol Bolas had been searching for Misu since he knocked Rune away, knowing that only the woman's apparition was the most threatening threat in this fight.
Although the Blade of Illusory Victory was destroyed in the previous scene, do you know if the other side will have any backs?
Even Fan Sword didn't dare to let down its vigilance, not to mention that it was still the genuine Fairy Holy Sword from thirty years ago-Galapeia. But what made it a little nervous was that he had never been able to find a trace of Misu.
It collapsed in the ruins, so it didn't dare to move easily for a moment, and it seemed cautious to get up and regain its balance.
This caution seemed to have helped it a lot, and at the same time as it got up, it finally spotted the stealthy Misu behind the building.
"Found you, bug!"
Nicol Bolas sneered in his heart, but pretended not to see it, and continued to roll over and get up from the ground. It carefully moved its tail to the farthest position, as if to let the other party down its guard, but at the same time, it blocked its right paw with one wing.
Always hide your attacks under your wings.
Misu was fooled.
Seeing that the dragon had not noticed her, she flew up to the wall next to her, jumped on the roof with a light step, and cautiously circled to the other side of Nicol Bolas.
Then he raised his hand and shot a golden beam of light from his hand that hit Nicol Bolas in the back.
The dark dragon screamed in pain.
It was so angry that it almost screamed, but instead of touching it and stabbing it in the eye with a sword—it attacked itself with the woman's strength, catching it off guard and eating it solidly.
Although this time it was not even a minor injury, the pain was real.
Nicol Bolas craned his neck in pain, and then it immediately understood what the other man was trying to do—as its eyes lost the protection of its wings, Misu leapt up from the roof and landed behind it.
If it hadn't been on guard, it might have really let the other party get its hands on it.
But Nicol Bolas had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and it let out a low growl, and its right claw suddenly emerged from under its wings, grabbing at Misu in mid-air.
But it was at this time that a gunshot rang out on the roof of a relatively intact building in the distance.
The bullet sliced across the square, swirling toward Nicol Bolas's eyes.
The dark dragon screamed angrily, it was not afraid of mortal iron, but it did not dare to make a mistake easily, so it could only withdraw its claws and block it with its wings, blocking the bullet.
It looked in that direction, and could only see the shadow of the aristocratic maiden deftly disappearing behind the roof there.
Sharp as an alert deer—
This shot pulled the two back to square one, and Misu realized that he had been ambushed, and he wanted to retreat in a hurry. But how could Nicol Bolas give her this opportunity, the dragon with wings on its wings, and suddenly spat out a low string of incantations from the depths of its throat.
Dragon magic.
One of the most fundamental forces in the world.
An invisible barrier arose behind Misu, imprisoning her in place.
However, Nicol Bolas himself is not comfortable, the dark dragons are dragonborns who have betrayed the dragon god Bahamut, and they rarely use dragon magic that has long been forgotten in their bloodline, and Nicol Bolas will not do so if it were not for the urgency.
But the betrayer will eventually be cursed by the dragon god, and the cursed power in his bloodline and the aether magic will work in Nicol Bolas's body, causing him to nearly fall to the ground unsteadily.
But it finally won the final victory-
It gasped and looked at Misu confined in mid-air, and suddenly chuckled. Laughing a little maniacally - it won.
It's finally out of the woods and can get out of this damn place.
Go to the descendants of Shuyod, and take revenge on this damned kingdom.
But Nicol Bolas was a little stunned to find that Misu, who should have felt desperate in front of it, did not have much fear on his face.
The human woman, on the contrary, looked at it with some pity.
What's the problem?
It narrowed its eyes slightly, and then suddenly realized that the other party didn't even have the sword in his hand - the fairy holy sword, Galapdia.
Exactly.
The other party's hands are completely empty.
"How so!?" A chill suddenly flashed in Nicol Bolas's heart, and he lost his voice, "What about the sword!?" ”
"Here!"
A faint voice said.
Nicol Bolas subconsciously turned his head, and his amber eyes reflected only the solemn look of the older knight, getting closer and closer to his hand.
Fairy Holy Sword.
Galapeia –
It was like a replay of a hundred years ago.
The man named Joschud had blinded one of his eyes, and the pain and humiliation of the past came back to Nicol Bolas's heart at this moment.
It screamed and tried to close its eyes in panic.
But late.
The sword slammed into its amber eyes.
The knight let go of his hand and fell heavily. But when he looked up, he saw that Galapeia in his hand had not left a trace on the surface of Nicol Bolas' crystal-like pupils.
In the screams of the dragons.
The sword was ejected.
It whirled halfway across the square, and then unbiasedly, just on the pedestal of the statue in the center of the square.
There was a soft bang.
