Act 221 The Brigade Mage is summoned
Mephistopheles had not yet decided the outcome with Royer, and as soon as he put away his sword, Royer, who was confronting him, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then saw the former take a step back, and his figure faded into the gray field.
"Huh?" Royer's gray and white eyebrows raised slightly, and he lowered his right hand, and the spell that was being conceived in his hand suddenly vanished. There are many rumors about Mephistopheles in the Empire, some of them absurd, but none of them mention that he was cowardly and timid. Although Royer was not familiar with Mephistopheles, he could see that the other party was definitely not afraid of him, and he thought of something, and his eyes subconsciously swept towards the forest.
In the forest, Brando and Charles looked at each other, and the Silver Queen was already suspicious, and it was only a matter of time before they saw through their flawed lie, and the two made the same choice at the same time and ran away.
The two turned and fled, Mordface hurried to catch up with Brando, and Andreg was a little slower to react, and she hesitated for a moment before choosing another direction on her own.
The Silver Queen almost froze for a moment before she reacted. "Catch them for me!" She screamed in rage.
A terrifying force swept through the air, and it was the Witch King who struck, she stretched out a finger, and her fingertips radiated a round of silver aperture, which expanded in an instant, extending to a radius of several miles, like a tangible wave of water, and in the blink of an eye, the entire forest was swept in, catching up with Brando, who was running from behind.
Brando only felt that the temperature dropped suddenly, the cold wind was blowing, and there was the sound of ice wolves roaring and hunting behind him, and he subconsciously reached out and touched his face, and his palms were wet, full of snow and broken ice.
From far to near, a thick layer of hoarfrost grows on the forest floor, covering stacks of dead leaves, moss, and rocks. Ten thousand trees withered, and the leaves fell one after another, but before they could reach the ground, they were already frozen. The branches of the trees were covered with ridges of ice, and the north wind blew. It was rattling.
Brando landed on a rock, and his feet were heavy, and he secretly said that it was not good, and when he lifted his feet, he could not lift them, and the hoarfrost on the ground seemed to come alive and spread up his riding boots, and in an instant a thick layer of ice was formed.
This is the force of the north wind, the element of the witch king, and this element is one of the most important legacies of witches. Coming from the Witch Queen, as the Witch Queen's handmaiden also has the same inheritance, although it is inferior, but it does not affect the power it shows in front of Brando.
It's only been a breath of time, and he can't feel his frozen foot anymore, and he can't help but be shocked in his heart, the strength of the Witch King is already at the peak of the extreme realm, but the most terrifying thing is the element of the power of the north wind, which is worthy of the power of several top elements in the era of the Battle of the Sages, although it is inferior. But it was not inferior to the elements of the world bosses he had seen in the past.
"It's not going to go on like this." Brando secretly said in his heart, the power of the north wind is too powerful, and if it goes on like this, he estimates that in a few seconds, the whole person may be imprisoned by ice. Gritted his teeth. Refreshing himself a little, Brando's eyes fixed on a clearing in the forest hundreds of feet away, and he was about to activate the spatial element to teleport him over.
Golden lines of law flashed in his eyes, and he was about to find the correct law order, but suddenly a majestic force fell from the sky and pressed towards him, Brando was caught off guard, and the spatial teleportation was interrupted on the spot. The power of the elements instantly reversed, and if he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been seriously injured on the spot. But even so, he still didn't have a good time. Suddenly he snorted, and his face turned pale.
The connection with the elements has been forcibly severed, and this is definitely the power of the Extreme Plains at its top.
For the swordsmen and wizards of the Extreme Realm, they are like the giant Antaeus standing on the earth, from which they can obtain a steady stream of power, so the Extreme Plains will have the saying of the realm.
Masters of the Extreme Realm who are within their personal realm are almost extremely difficult to defeat.
Therefore, in the battle above the extreme realm, it is often the strong side that uses its own domain laws to defeat the other party's domain laws first, and when the realm suppresses too much, the strong side can even use the domain to forcibly cut off the connection between the other side and the law world.
There is definitely more than one person on this battlefield who can absolutely suppress himself, but if he is not pulled into the Extreme Plain, he will be cut off from his own elements, and there are only a few people who can use the power of the Extreme Realm to this level.
Brando looked up with some difficulty, and sure enough, he saw Royer stretching out his right palm to him in mid-air.
Above the air, Vala couldn't help but shake her head, Mephistopheles told him to leave Brando alone, he was really curious in his heart where the Gray Sword Saint had full confidence in his students, knowing that the other party was facing the peak of the Imperial Power Pyramid, and not one, but several.
Seeing that Royer and the Witch King teamed up to leave Brando behind, Vala was slightly disappointed, but this result was not as he expected, even if there was a Holy Sword Flame Blade, but the difference in strength was obvious, if seven or eight Extreme Realm masters let a junior escape under their noses, how could the empire have face at all?
He was not surprised in his heart, and when he raised his hand, the Golden Flame Holy Tattoo flashed in his hand, and he was about to help Brando out of the siege, but as soon as he moved, Saipan and Richard appeared in front of him again.
The Grand Master of the Flame Knights' long golden hair danced wildly in the wind, like an angry lion, the long sword in his hand shone brightly, a sword was like a meteor across the sky, and the golden flame-like sword light pierced the golden flame holy pattern in front of Vala for thousands of feet.
Although Saipan next to him did not make a move at the first time, the meaning in his eyes was very obvious:
Your opponent is here.
Vala was helpless, if only Richard alone would not be able to make him do anything, but the fierce eyes of Saipan next to him made him feel more troublesome, he flicked his fingers, the golden holy pattern in front of him disappeared, and a golden shield appeared on him.
The golden sword light slashed at the shield with incomparable accuracy, and in an instant, half of the sky shone brightly, as bright as day.
The thunder continued on the hill where the Cold Dew Manor was located, and at this moment it was the brilliance of sword light and magic, and the entire imperial capital had long understood that there might be an elemental level battle on the mountain, but no one dared to leave the house to find out, and the residents hid in their homes, looking through the windows at the crowd that was gathering on the street with uneasy eyes:
People wearing cloaks and hiding their heads and tails gather more and more in the streets. If on weekdays, there were patrol cavalry to disperse them, but today it is a little different.
Until this moment, the city guards. The patrol cavalry did not have a single figure, as if the Empire's control of its heart had quietly disappeared.
Silent uneasiness permeated the entire imperial capital. Countless people couldn't sleep at night.
In the frost-covered forest, the ice creaked down Brando's knees and toward his waist, and he could almost feel the strange stinging pain of the blood in his lower body, and the witch king was watching him in mid-air - it was a rather beautiful middle-aged woman, but the other party's eyes were like rolling balls of mercury, and he could not see the whites of his eyes or his pupils, gray and silver. It made it look very cold - she glanced at Brando with this cold look, "Dark Dragon? β
Brando could not easily hear the mockery in the other man's tone, but his face did not change, and he frowned as if he was thinking of a way out.
He held this position for a few breaths, and the ice continued to climb up his waist, covering the spot of his chest in the blink of an eye.
But it was at this time that Royer, who stretched out his right hand to cover Brando, suddenly frowned, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the calendula business district.
The Witch King's face changed instantly.
Right here and now.
Frozen by the north wind, Brando suddenly collapsed like a shattered ice sculpture, turning into snowflakes that scattered into the air, and these snowflakes dissipated into nothing before they hit the ground.
"Ice Folding Technique!" Agatrice on the side subconsciously glanced at the Witch King. If she hadn't known that it was impossible, she would have almost thought that the other party was colluding with Brando, and that the King of Witches had been tricked by a three-ring illusion of an elemental envoy.
The Witch King's face was gloomy and terrifying: "Chase! β
She only said one word. However, Royer, who was not far away, helped: "Stop his men, his method of escaping is a bit peculiar, and the ice folding technique is just a trick." β
Agatrice looked back, since their main target was Brando, they didn't care where Charles and the two little bloodborns ran to, but the forest had its own Flame Knights to surround them, so there was no need to worry that the other party would fly out of the encirclement.
But no sooner had she seen the young wizard squire, and she watched as the other man's figure faded into the forest, and finally disappeared into nothingness.
See this strange scene. The witch of the Golden Sea only felt her hair stand on end, and the power of Vaynd's magic and elements varied. But the means by which the young wizard squire disappeared before her eyes were none of them.
Neither invisibility nor illusion. She didn't even feel any magic fluctuations, the thread of law was as calm as ever on the other side of the world, and there was no trace of the elements, giving people the feeling that a person had disappeared out of thin air in front of her for no reason.
As a witch and the mistress of a lonely hill, Agatrice had a strange thought at this moment: ghosts?
She looked in the other direction, a little creepy, and happened to see Andreg and Mordface disappear into the forest in almost the same way.
Almost all of the Flame Knights who surrounded them froze.
"He's on the edge of the calendula business district," Royer's eyes flashed, and at this moment he finally confirmed the guess in his mind: "It's not magic. β
"It's not witchcraft." The Witch King replied with a gloomy face.
"I didn't feel any traces of the elements either." The youngest girl replied with a grin.
After saying that, Royer and the Witch King couldn't help but fall silent, neither magic, nor the power of the elements, nor the power of borrowing the dreams of the witches, so what kind of power is this?
The point is, they are unaware of this tactic.
In other words, this power is beyond their cognition.
"I seem to have heard of such a power before," replied Royère, with a sudden frown, after a moment of silence, "but ......"
The witch king's eyes twinkled, and she didn't say a word, she had heard of such powers.
But that's already a story from a distant time.
The man who once possessed it had a title of the Dark, known to the world as the Dragon of Darkness.
The eyes of the Grand Holy See Vala, who witnessed this scene from afar, couldn't help but have a fine light in his eyes, he didn't expect this little guy to really surprise him, unlike anyone present, he clearly recognized the source of the power shown by Brando.
Traveling Mage -
And sure enough, they were back.
Mephistopheles was an amazing student, and he slowly stopped, and a pillar of light broke through the dark clouds and descended from mid-air, immobilizing Richard and Saipan, who were his opponents.
"Sanctuary of the Word!"
There were a few exclamations from below.
Richard and Saipan were frozen in the flawless golden light, glaring at Valra, and in the distance, Royer subconsciously wanted to make a move, but glanced at the golden light in the sky, shook his head, and retracted his steps.
The Holy Word Sanctuary is the top holy spell of the Fire Temple, it cannot be learned by non-Holy See, it is also the strongest life-saving means above the Holy See, within the scope of the Holy Word Sanctuary, Vala wants to leave, except for the Holy Sage, Vaulnd is afraid that no one can leave him.
I think that Sidney used this spell to escape from the imperial capital in the first place, and at that time, Richard and the others couldn't help her, not to mention that the Grand Holy Seat Vala personally cast the spell.
At this moment, Vala's figure was fading in a golden light, and he took one last look at the dark night sky, shook his head, and said, "The empire is different from what it used to be, Your Majesty." β
"Teacher, do you also want to turn your back on the empire and stand on the side of others to fight against me?" The Silver Queen's voice calmed down, as if she was not in the least annoyed by the escape of Brando and the others.
Vala sighed.
During the princess era, he was indeed one of the many teachers of the Silver Queen, and the little princess had been amazed by her talent in the path of the golden flames, and if she hadn't been a member of the royal family, she would probably have surpassed Sidney to become the next Sanctuary of the Flames.
"You were once the kindest princess of the Cruz," Vala sighed, "if you are willing to go back to the right path." β
"I've never been more convinced that I'm on the right path than I am now." The Silver Queen replied coldly.
"Bigotry obscures your gaze, Your Majesty."
"On the contrary, it is you who cannot see the way forward."
Vala shook her head, her body turning into a golden shadow, and finally the clouds closed, and the golden light remained only in the memories of everyone present.
It was as if everything that had happened before was just a mirage, and only a long sigh echoed over the forest.
The Silver Queen was silent for a long time.
The Extreme Realm powerhouses above the forest subconsciously looked at the night sky, everyone felt more or less uncomfortable, seven or eight Extreme Realm masters came together, but they couldn't even leave a young man at the peak of the law. What made them feel most embarrassed was that not only did they not leave the other party behind, but they also let the other party escape after turning Hanlu Manor upside down.
Of all the people present, the Witch King's face was the most gloomy, followed by Willek and the injured Bradley, and finally Royer, who missed, had a calm and breezy look.
After a moment of silence, the Silver Queen's order came again:
"Don't chase it, return to the White Rose Garden immediately."
