Chapter 227: Hatred

"The pirates are coming!"

A shout interrupted the group's train of thought.

It didn't take long for everyone to see Luo Hao hurriedly running over from that direction.

Sylvid closed the communication crystal and looked over there. Fang Ou had just warned them that someone might have spotted them.

I didn't expect it to come to the door so quickly.

She didn't think much of it, just glanced at Shesta and Baggins, and then both loaded their magic muskets.

Then there was another roar on the ground.

There was a shake in the tunnel.

"Looks like time is running out, let's get out of this place first." The Lion Paladin looked to the other side of the tunnel, his silver eyes flashing faintly.

He stepped forward, and with his backhand he inserted the scepter into the latch of the magic furnace and hung it there, then raised the lion's head shield against the collapsed pillar, and then turned back to say a word to the crowd.

As if to confirm his words, several Blood Shark air thieves on the other side of the tunnel swarmed in. Baggins and Sylvid opened fire at the same time, and after two flashes of fire flashed in the darkness, a deafening roar swept through people's hearts—

In the distance, the two air pirates fell immediately, and the rest of the men rushed past the dead in a chaotic manner and continued to charge towards them.

Luo Yu looked in that direction, and immediately raised the magic guide wand in his hand and stretched out his left hand.

A silver light formed above his glove—it streaked through an arc, and then formed a six-pointed star, the square pillars of the Arka square, the earth elemental realm—all converging in front of him into a double circle.

The six-pointed star circle rotated relatively slowly, and the silver light flickered slightly.

The crate stepped forward and stood side by side with him, holding his wand in his left hand and moving forward: "Mana, Detect Hostility, Third Law, Diffusion, Gravity—"

An invisible ripple emanated from his wand, like a ripple of water, spreading through the corridor, slowing the air pirates wherever they passed.

Saying that it was too late and that was too fast, the box stepped forward and drew his sword with his right hand, as if the commander swung forward with his sword: "Magic, Detection Zone, Seventh Law, Burst, Force Field-"

The second ripple shot forward explosively, and the group of air thieves who were struggling in the gravity well flew back upside down as if they had hit an oncoming train.

Only two men in boatswain garbs paused slightly, and tore forward with all the force—like tearing apart a wave of water, with a soft 'pop'—and each of them passed through the gravitational field.

One of them threw the scimitar in his hand, and the scimitar swirled towards the box and Luo Yu. It's just that 'when' a flash of fire swept by, the scimitar hit Luo Hao's big shield that appeared in front of the two of them at some point.

The fat man took five or six steps back before stopping, and when he looked at the shield, he couldn't help but be speechless. On the tower shield of his iron guard, a hole half an inch deep was cut for this violent throw.

And at this moment, Luo Yu finally completed the spell.

He raised his wand and struck down with its tail. At that moment, everyone seemed to hear an invisible voice, echoing from the elemental realm in the underworld—

A circle of fluorescent ripples in the darkness spread out like ripples around the tail of his staff.

The ripples were gently passing under the feet of the two air pirate boatswains, and before the two could react, an elemental crystal had formed in Luo Yu's hands out of thin air.

Luo Yu pointed forward.

The elemental crystals that emitted a multicolored light immediately flew out in that direction and disappeared into the opponent's feet.

Kita opened the magic book.

With a slender, white finger pointing at one of the sections—

The endless pinnacles depicted in the book seem to hang upside down in the clouds, and the sharp rocks are like spears, and the longitudinal thorns stretch out to the sky. Above the mountains, on the top of the cloud wall, a muscular deity with a silver ring and long hair hanging down to the ground.

With a hammer in one hand and a sword in the other, he was looking indifferently at the earth.

It is the patron of the dwarves, the king of the earth, the lord of the mountains, Taros.

She spoke.

The voice echoed in the darkness with childish crispness:

"The endless peaks listen to the echo, the valley of the holy mountain is majestic and treacherous, the wind shouts and folds the sword, when does the sun shine my winged silver helmet?"

She closed the book, her eyes shining with the silver sheen of aether, and glanced forward. In the dark, in a gentle tone, he spat out the last eulogy:

"Ancient kings, hear my supplication."

"Worship the saints of the mountain, give me my soul."

The moment the Luo Yu Crystal fell to the ground, an earthy yellow light surged from the ground, condensed to the point of being almost substantial, almost realm.

Luo Yu leaned upward, and in the middle of the earthly realm, a long wall stood upright. There was a loud bang, splitting them in two with the air pirates.

"Well done." The big cat man praised the three of them without hesitation.

On the side, Afifa's eyes sparkled. She was not illiterate, and although these people were not as good as her father's palace guards, they were young.

And talent is not as good as accumulation, some things are clear at a glance. The little girl immediately had a feeling that she had found a treasure, and compared to her sister and father, she was just some right-hand man.

Would you be stuck here otherwise?

But the big cat man didn't know that the little Jiujiu in the heart of this little girl, with only one hand holding a shield to support the pillar, said to the other party: "Hurry up and let your servant take Dickt away, let's leave this place first." ”

"Uh-oh." Afifa stopped refuting this time, and nodded again and again.

She immediately ordered her servant to pick up Dickt as she went over and asked, "Lord the Chosen, are you an elemental envoy?" ”

Luo Yu nodded inexplicably.

"Do you have a female companion?"

“?”

"Well, have you ever thought about dating a princess?"

Tianlan listened to this and almost hit her head against the wall, she turned around and glanced at Luo Yu very angrily.

Then he snorted heavily and ran away without looking back.

Luo Yu hadn't reacted to this scene yet, and Sylvid on the side had already patted him on the back with a smile and motioned for him to hurry up.

Only then did Luo Yu react, hurriedly thanked the noble lady, and hurriedly chased after her.

Afifa looked at this scene and pouted: "What's so good, big chest and no brains?" She patted her flat chest: "This princess is not uncommon." ”

Sylvid only smiled with crooked eyes.

And when the group walked out of this area, they didn't encounter any more air pirates, which proved that Luo Yu's work was fruitful.

It wasn't until they had fought the undead creatures in the tunnel before entering that they finally came across a team of Flor's descendants who had entered from the outside.

However, after a tentative exchange with them, the other party withdrew.

Entering the back area, the people had to choose to find a way out of the ruins from the ground because the tunnel had collapsed from the previous explosion.

After returning to the surface, the group was divided into two according to the agreement. According to Luo Hao's previous plan, the ladies turned back first, and the rest of the group continued to look for a 'target' in the city.

Naturally, Bunigu was very grateful to them.

The big cat man waved his hand, signaling that this was also the purpose of the team at the moment, not just to help him. It's just that the two teams haven't separated yet, and a team of air pirates has been killed in the oblique stab.

Luo Yu and the others looked up, and the person led by the other party was the tall air pirate that Fang Yu had seen before, the second officer of the Sea Serpent.

Several people raised their weapons one after another, and were preparing to fight.

But a claw came from the side and blocked them. The lion-man threw away the shield in his hand, only to remove the scepter from the magic furnace, and looked at the man with a faint silver gaze—

To be exact, looking at the four scars on each other's faces.

"You go first," said the big cat man in a rare serious tone, and looked back at the others, "I'll do what I have to do." ”

The man looked at him as well, and there was a complicated look in his only remaining eyeball.

He also turned his head and glanced at the pirates behind him.

The air pirates seemed to understand and retreated.

Seeing this scene, everyone seemed to understand something.

"Big Cat ......" Tianlan, who was chased back by Luo Yu, was slightly stunned, she glanced at the hideous-looking man, and then looked at the Lion Man Paladin, a little worried.

"Are you okay?"

Baggins asked him.

Red shook his head: "This is a matter between me and him, you go first." ”

Baggins nodded, pulled a pipe out of his pocket, and tossed it over. "The old captain gave me a lucky pipe, remember to return it."

The big cat man puts away his pipe.

The boatswain glanced at the leader of the empty pirates—the feud on the empty sea, as a sailor who fought the waves, he had long been commonplace.

He patted the other party on the shoulder: "There is a grudge to repay the grudge, and there is a revenge to take revenge." ”

Then leave with your back to the big cat.

Sylvid also looked at this scene and gently tugged on Sky Blue.

"Sister Sylvide?" Sky Blue was a little uneasy.

But the noble daughter's bright eyes seemed to have a different meaning, and she didn't answer, but only quietly glanced at Tianlan.

Sky Blue's eyes widened and she looked at her incredulously.

On the other side, Luo Hao took the lead in taking a step back, put away his shield, and said to Luo Yu and the box: "Let's go, let's leave this place first." ”

The two glanced at each other and did as they were told.

Just after a few steps, the box suddenly asked, "Is the direction wrong?" ”

Luo Hao didn't look back, and replied, "Of course yes." ”

The box looked at Luo Yu a little strangely, but Luo Yu closed his mouth and didn't say a word. The box thought for a moment, and then asked, "But wait a minute, shouldn't we go to the scholar?" ”

The fat man shook his head: "No, let's go back in a circle." ”

"Go back?"

"Yes, go back."

"But the big cat man said?"

"He said his, what's the matter with us?" The fat man smiled siniestly: "What is the reason to talk to the air pirates, if the big cat people are in danger, we will rush to it." ”

For the first time, Box Poker showed a curious look on his face: "No problem? ”

"The paladin of Marlan only asks about his heart," Luo Hao replied crookedly: "If we save him, can the big cat still commit suicide?" ”

The box seemed to understand and nodded, and suddenly felt that this was the truth.

After everyone left, Red slowly raised the scepter in his hand, holding it with both hands, his eyes sank, and his muscles rose.

Like a big cat with fried hair, a majestic mane, and all the hair.

He opened his mouth, revealing his snow-white fangs:

"Dale, we're meeting again."

The man, whose face was covered in scars, also drew his scimitar, the blade glittering in the light of the fire.

Different from the gloomy face when he confronted Luo Lin before, the other party had a blank face at the moment, and said in a hoarse voice: "Cecil, your sister's matter is just a misunderstanding. I don't want that to happen, but it's irreparable, and I'm not asking for your forgiveness now—"

The big cat sneered and exhaled a long breath:

You've said the same thing four times. But since you have a clear conscience, why hide and be in fear? ”

He drew the short sword at his waist with his backhand, and threw a silver light in front of the man, digging deep into the dirt:

"I swear to Marlan that you have a clear conscience."

The man glanced at the dagger, and the scar on his face twitched, but he was silent. After a while, he changed his words: "...... I didn't expect you to be a freelancer. ”

"Freedom is order," replied the big cat man, "Dal, don't be a mother-in-law." ”

His voice had just fallen.

A cold light shot from under the man's left hand, which had been hiding behind him.

But the big cat man's eyes didn't move slightly, and the scepter in his hand was lightly blocked, and the blow was missed. A crossbow bolt with a hand swirled and fell to the ground.

He looked back, and there was a faint blue light flashing above the crossbow arrow.

The big cat man sneered: "You still haven't changed at all, but these little tricks are useless." Let's get some real skills. ”

The man raised his scimitar in his hand.

……

Until he left the underground, Fang Yuan's mind was still in a mess, and he still remembered what Sylvade had told him in the newsletter before.

Theoretically, there is no need for the aristocratic daughter to lie about this. But if her analysis was true, then why did Eve tell him that it was only the Dragon's Heart that was sealed underground?

Is it because she doesn't know either?

But Fang Yu looked at the eye-catching text in the system:

'Guardian of the Ancient Oath, Bear the Curse of the Dragon King—'

As the inheritor of its dragon blood, Eve really doesn't know this? I'm afraid that it may not be, do you remember that when the other party completed the seal, he repeatedly warned him in a cautious tone not to go deep into the seal?

So what's behind the seal?

Fang Yu realized that the fear came from a memory deep in her soul.

Then the girl did not fully tell him the truth.

He remembered again what he had seen beneath the castle of Aichael.

That broken dragon slaying sword, is it really the holy sword Moya? Is the soul of the Dragon King really sealed in the broken holy sword?

He still remembered the lich at that time, the origin of the other party is still a mystery, and the very eye-catching Lady Delis.

Fang Yu couldn't help but glance at the white cat lady who was walking in front with her tail upright, looking back at them from time to time.

But Eve didn't tell the truth.

The benefits he got from the Dragon's Heart were real. With his level of strength, and only if the power contained within the Dragon's Heart fully recognizes him, he will be able to accept this legacy unscathed.

And the recognition of the power of the dragon's heart obviously comes from the dragon witch herself.

That is, the embodiment of her will here - Eve.

So why is all this?

Fang Yu was puzzled.

Attila could see that he was thinking, and remained silent. Only Miss Nini, who had been sitting on his shoulders and dangling her little feet since she woke up.

A laid-back look.

Tata felt the thought in his heart and said softly, "Mr. Knight, why don't you think in the other direction?" ”

Fang Yu was stunned: "Another direction? ”

"Who took Miss Eve?"

"Aren't you from the Flor Descendants?"

"Why did the people of the Fleur take her?"

"Because ......"

Fang Yu had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and changed his words: "Miss Tata, are you saying that Eve deliberately supported us to leave that place?" ”

"Logically makes sense, Mr. Knight."

"Since the people of the Fleur Descendants know this secret, it means that there is someone behind them who knows what happened to Idus."

"Anyone who knows the inside story of the year should not be able to deal with Mr. Knight, at least in Miss Eve's opinion."

Fang Yu was annoyed when he heard this, if he had thought about this section clearly, he would not let Eve leave there alone anyway.

But it's too late to think about anything now.

The only thing he could do was to save the other party from the Descendants of Flor before everything was a foregone conclusion.

But another thought crossed his mind.

And if Eve is taken away by someone who is not of the Flair offspring?

"If it weren't for someone of Flo's descendant," Tata replied calmly, "that person would only be more hidden, and would be a greater threat to Mr. Knight." ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but fight a cold war.

While thinking about it, the front finally came to the end of the tunnel. He looked up in that direction, and on the surface it was just a fork in the road.

But the exit is recorded in the journal, and the place is also described by Bunigu.

So he walked over and pushed the wall hard, but it was no more than a stone slab on the outside, and the movable structure below had not been damaged.

As soon as he pushed, the door loosened and slid open.

As soon as the door opened, a rumbling sound poured into the tunnel, and a flash of light from the explosion turned his and Elf's faces white.

Fang Yu looked out and found that the location of this place was quite good.

It's actually a lowland, under a breach. Not far away is the town hall that rises over the edge of the cliff – a ruin but still unique compared to the surrounding buildings.

He took advantage of the fire from the explosion to look around, and the terrain was not ideal for both warring sides, so no one was fighting around the place.

From a distance, it was almost impossible to see the shadows of a few air pirates and the descendants of Flor.

On one side of the cliff, there seems to be some disconnected entrance in the depression. When Fang Yu saw those entrances, a bold idea suddenly appeared in his mind.

Maybe he didn't have to go to the ground, and he could find a way to get into the ground of the town hall.

It's just that the underground part of the town hall is so exposed, haven't the air pirates and previous archaeologists thoroughly examined it?

Fang Yu was very suspicious that there would be any useful clues down there, and even if there might have been, they should have been lost for a long time.

Could this be another way for Eve to keep him safe?

However, he didn't think about it that much at the moment, and after thinking for a moment, he turned back to Attila and said, "Miss Attila, can you become that again...... That'...... look like that."

He gestured for Miss Elf to take the form of a bird of paradise and land on his shoulder.
