CHAPTER XXVII

"Now, Joshua, is it really okay for Ike to be there alone?" On the way to the fifth floor of the Central Tower, Estelle suddenly spoke. "The one called Kemparela, I heard Ling say that he seems to be very powerful."

"He is also a very special existence among the executors, known for being good at illusions, and there are very few people who know his true strength. Since that illusion can trap Ike, then it's useless for us to fight together. Kempareira said that he didn't want to fight us, but he wanted to delay us, but what we need most now is time, Ike is afraid Ike has already thought of it. Joshua shook his head, "But don't worry, since Ike said let him alone, he should have a way, after all, he is the captain of the Iron Fleet, and it is not his style to fight alone and not be sure." ”

"That's right." Kevin on the side, "Although that guy is a little annoying, I really can't think of that guy losing, I'm afraid there are only a few people who can beat him." ”

Several people boarded the lift, and Joshua looked up at the top of the lift, "Now let's concentrate on what we can do, since Valut, Lublulan, and Luciola have all appeared, then it means... ”

"Ah, the battle intent above makes people shiver." Kevin also looked up and nodded.

"Is it Levy... Astelle whispered, no longer needing an answer, and the elevator quickly reached the top floor, and a cold, calm voice came from the other end. The silver-haired young man stood quietly in front of the stairs that he had to pass through, holding his sword.

"Are you coming? . . .

"Levy...

"I can't think it's going to be faster than I thought." Levi chuckled lightly, a grim smile that made people shudder, "I thought I would have to wait a little longer." Sure enough, it's because Ling is gone. ”

"Because we can't just stand still." Estelle replied, "But those companions of yours are really tricky. ”

"Hehe, it's really sharp." Levi snorted, "Looks like that guy isn't there." ”

"Ike's words and Kemparella are in the ark." Joshua replied.

"Kempareira... I see, he has a good calculation. It seems that he is quite interested in the after-show of the professor. After thinking for a moment, Levi showed a clear look, and pointed his sword at everyone, "Since that's the case, let's start quickly." ”

As he spoke, a silver light suddenly lit up in his eyes, and the cold sword intent and piercing fighting spirit erupted, as if Shura had descended into the world.

"Let me remind you first, don't compare my Sword Emperor with them, in a head-to-head duel, no one can surpass me. Even S-class guerrillas, or snake apostles, are no exception. ”

“。。。 We already know how strong you are, but we will not back down from stopping mutations and chaos and war with the help and expectation of many people! Estelle said with a steadfast look in her eyes.

“。。。 Oh, that's not a bad reason. Levi nodded slightly, "But Joshua, your reasons are different, right?" ”

"Huh?"

“。。。 You've seen through it. Joshua stepped forward. I am... I came to face my weakness. Joshua's tone was resolute, "Ike is right, whether it is my sister's death or obedience to the professor, it is because of my weakness, so I can't protect my important things, so Levi, I must challenge you and the professor head-on!" ”

“。。。。。。”

"You've grown up, and it looks like I don't have to worry about you anymore for Karin." Levi closed his eyes, as if he was relieved in his heart, and his cold fighting spirit suddenly surged into a burst of rage, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his blood-red eyes stared at Joshua, "In this way, I finally don't have to show mercy to my subordinates." Levi's body glowed green, and two humanoid weapons rushed towards him as if they had heard a call.

"Come on! Let me see your determination! Joshua! ”

"Just what I want!"

The two humanoid weapons let out a beastly roar and went on a rampage, Klos, support please! Joshua and Estelle jumped up in unison, both fed the rushing humanoid weapon.

"Hmm! This guy has a lot of strength! Estelle, who retreated step by step, frowned.

"Don't resist, their weakness is their feet!" Joshua shouted as he turned sideways as he crouched down and fought to his feet. Hearing the sound of bells, the humanoid weapon that had lost its resistance slammed into the wall on the side, unable to stop because of the damage to his feet, and finally rolled to the side.

"There's a set." Lévi stepped forward, frowning a few steps back, his sword swinging to block the incoming crossbow arrows.

"Hehe, I won't let you interfere easily." Kevin quickly reloaded his crossbow bolts, and his body lit up with magical patterns at the same time.

"Guardian Knight... But is it really good for you to show your back like this? Rai sneered.

"What!" Kevin's face changed, and he crouched down and ran forward without thinking, while squinting at the back and shooting a crossbow arrow.

"It's too slow!" At some point, Levi made a loud noise, blocked Kevin's crossbow arrows, and slashed down with his sword.

"What..." The sword, which was supposed to be a nirvana, suddenly stopped beside Kevin, like an invisible wall that firmly surrounded Kevin, and no matter how hard Levi tried, he couldn't go any further.

"Star Cup Field. Knowing that you can use the clone combat skill, how can you not be guarded. After Kevin finished speaking, he aimed his unloaded crossbow at Levi's clone who was stiffened by the slash, and the arrow groove and his body emitted a burst of blue light at the same time, and a blue light shot towards Kevin's right hand, and the sound of ice breaking came, and Levi's clone, who took out the long sword, jumped to the side, and his arm and the long sword were frozen together, becoming a large ice cube.

"Is this an attack trying to defeat me?" Levi moved, his sword pointed straight at everyone, and the furious and ruthless fighting spirit was reined in, but it made people feel more and more dangerous.

"Repair..."

The growing fighting spirit was suddenly interrupted, and Joshua, who had already disposed of the humanoid weapon, suddenly appeared beside Levi.

"I can't let you do your best."

"Joke, does the Manifest Black Fang want to beat me too?" Levi sneered, and slashed out with a sword that forced Joshua away.

"I can't, but ah, I'm not alone now!"

Levi's feet lit up with pitch-black magical patterns, and the demon's shadow rushed out of them with a terrible roar.

"Shhhh Magic. Levy's face turned slightly pale, and the surrounding area darkened because of the appearance of the black shadow, and Joshua's figure disappeared from view. The sound of countless crossbow bolts breaking through the air resounded all around.

"Are you really a priest?" Levi, who did his best to resist, shouted after blocking several flying crossbow arrows, all of which flew from the dead end towards the vital point, even in Levi's posture, with an arrow in his left arm and back. After the magic disappeared, Levi pulled out his crossbow arrow and rushed towards Kevin, his figure suddenly disappeared in mid-air, and after landing, six figures rushed towards Kevin together.

"What!" After blocking a blow with an arm crossbow, he dodged the clone that attacked sideways, and he was inevitably slashed hard behind him, and after a huge blow, Kevin's whole person was thrown away.

"Kevin!"

"Don't succeed!"

Seeing the other clones rush over, Estelle swung her long stick and forced the two clones back. Suddenly, spikes swelled up on the ground and blocked Kevin's body.

"Broken Sword"

Levy's sword swept away, sweeping away half of the spikes of earth that had protruded more than a meter high, and the three clones turned to Estelle, taking up the triangular position and turning into phantoms to burst into the circle formed by the long stick.

Hearing only three bells, Estelle screamed, and three deep sword marks appeared on her arms, thighs, and back, supporting her body with a stick. The round stick is broken.

"Stains." One of them snorted softly, and the six figures turned into one, "Blocked the deadly attack, and after three consecutive hits, you still haven't been able to knock out the weapon in your hand... Looks like Ike did teach you a lot. After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Kevin, "Is the guardian knight's suit of the church... It seems to be a shallow sight. ”

"Father Kevin, are you alright?"

"Hey, if it weren't for this dress, it would probably be over, worthy of the Sword Emperor." Kevin sat up with difficulty, and spat blood, the knight's robe on his back was already stained red with blood, and a slash mark was clearly visible.

"It's the first time I've seen it, and I actually sew magic patterns on clothes, that coat of arms, it's protection and healing." Seeing that Kevin's body lit up with blue and yellow light, and the blood of the slash was gradually stopped, Levi spoke, "But you have already abolished a person, do you still want to continue?" ”

"Hehe, what are you talking about?" Kevin suddenly laughed, "Although you defeated me, I did what I had to do, and I'll leave the rest to you, Joshua." ”

"What!" Levi's body sank suddenly, and the momentary discomfort caused him to kneel on one knee.

The special magic of the Star Cup Knights, the gravity magic that even the Star Cup Knights rarely use, is not so easy to counteract. ”

Without waiting for Kevin to speak, Levi had already stood up strongly, with his long sword standing in front of his chest, such a great opportunity, even he would not let go of it, let alone the dark fangs of the assassination monograph.

Joshua reappeared in everyone's field of vision like a ghost, and the twin knives had been swung with all his might before Lévi raised his hand, and Joshua, who was proud of his speed, was now slashing at Levi head-on with all his strength. Levi, who had just stood up and didn't even have a solid body, could withstand Joshua's full force, and after taking a few steps back, he finally couldn't hold back and flew backwards, slamming into the wall.
