352 Let go, saints and witches
"The words of the mentor may be right......"
The purple silk is staggered, dividing the huge space into fragments and blurs, and the black-haired and silver-eyed beauty lies on her side, holding her head and groaning.
The memory of dancing with Li Qi is indeed a little reluctant to touch, it may be that the guy's pretended profound posture stabbed her self-esteem, it may be that his own path was actually seen through by him at a glance and gave birth to fear, on top of these two possibilities, there may also be him condescending to look at this path and make a very unbearable ruling, but not say a word to her.
The mentor was indeed right, she and Richie, Lady Night and Lady Crimson, the paths of the two should have been integrated at first, or at least parallel. But after Theresia, there must be an irreconcilable divide between the two as to where the world should go, so much so that the Mentor will not hesitate to take risks to clear such hidden dangers.
But when it comes to disagreement, isn't there enough disagreement with the Arcanists, isn't it big enough with the neutral gods or even the evil gods? What is the difference between the gesture of the Mentor and the countless orders divided by the stubborn and ignorant paladins under Dragon? Just because the starting point is on the same path, and then they will go their separate ways? Just because of the fear of heresy or betrayal?
"No, it's too much space, it's meaningless!"
Hathaway rejects this direction, and the question has to come down to something real, that is, what is the faith of the Crimson Lady, and what is hidden under the great love and the emancipation of slaves?
The personal experience of childhood, the narration of her mother, circulated in Hathaway's heart.
Whatever is hidden, the quest to free slaves and free mortals from the violent slavery of their own kind is the same thing as the freedom you seek.
The question then becomes, for what emancipation of the slaves? Is it the Crimson Lady's great love similar to that of the Goddess of Mercy?
If so, then Richie's performance must be from the heart, and if not, Richie is performing. It's like a lord giving alms to his people in order to hear the people's praises.
Hathaway waved her hand, and the light curtain unfolded, and it was the image of Li Qi taking the slap of the black-haired girl with two ponytails.
The image of less than two seconds was repeated more than ten times, and then Lidge's face was magnified to fill the entire light curtain, and repeated more than ten times.
At a cursory glance, Li Qi behaved naturally and indifferently about the slap, but if you look closely, the smile is barely piled up. It can be clearly seen that there is a very brief moment, and Li Qi is actually a little embarrassed, and then switches to a disguised smile.
This doesn't mean anything, except that his reaction is still the same as a normal person, just less obvious.
Then Pero asked Li Qi to kneel and beg, and at first Li Qi held back his angry expression, Hathaway was very familiar. In those young people who are not deep in the city, but who can control their emotions well by virtue of upbringing or faith, they abound.
When Richie knelt down, he was not angry, nor panicked, but he probably had rarely or never done so before, and he seemed stiff.
The expressions are all real, and they are also in line with his position that he is not pleading for himself, but for the people his subordinates care about. Sakhina knew that this little girl named Josie had a mutual affection for his subordinates.
Then the question arises, since he is not the person he directly cares about, why is he willing to do such an extremely shameful thing? Is he a pervert?
Gradually, Hathaway's eyes flashed with a look of enlightenment.
Litchie was a man who didn't care about class status at all, and in his opinion, neither the Pope nor the Duke, or the status of the Queen's envoy, nor his own dignity, was comparable to an innocent life.
He knew that Perro's end was coming, so he tried to accommodate Perot's request and stall for time. From beginning to end, his purpose was very clear, to save the little girl.
He was wrong not to expect that Perot had planned to kill the little girl from the beginning in order to sacrifice this celebration and to take revenge on him.
No, maybe he expected this, but he still had a bit of luck and worked hard.
Hathaway waved again, and another scene appeared, which was the perspective of a person.
The demon warrior with a silver-white metallic luster on his skin raised his long knife, slashed his head, and covered his forehead with one hand, blocking the knife, and then Li Qi reproached with some annoyance: "Can't you even hide if you don't have magic power?"
Then Li Qi's sentence floated in the space.
"Human life is priceless, how can it be measured by money?"
"Forget my faith, all for one, one for all, in the eyes of Lady Crimson, everyone is the same. β
"Identity is just the clothes on a person...... No, just vests. Even if there is a difference, help each other, unite and love, this is what people are. β
"This membrane protects the Storm Isles at the cost of your people's blood, sweat, freedom, and lives. β
Sakhina's attitude towards Li Qi began to change from that night, and now she, who keeps calling the duke, seems to regard Li Qi as the master.
Hathaway dissipated the light curtain and pulled out a book from her chest, and on the cover of the book was the words "Crimson Codex".
Like other churches, such canons are only used to promote and develop low-level believers, and there are many embellishments, but she feels that it is necessary to read them carefully.
I don't know how long it took, but Hathaway stretched and exhaled a cloudy breath.
"If I hadn't been on the mission of the Night Lady, if I hadn't been born in the Storm Isles, if I hadn't become a magician, I would have believed in the Crimson Lady. β
She seemed to have made a decision, and her expression became extremely solemn: "Maybe there will be differences in the future, maybe such differences are incompatible." But I am sure that we agree on the same starting and ending points, and that is...... Freedom, the freedom of mortals. β
Hathaway's arms stretched, and the purple silk flipped and intertwined, and the space was distorted, as the purple silk stretched, bent and even twisted into a bundle, while her body did not change, floating in the deformed space.
In the space that was almost torn into a kaleidoscope, several runes jumped out, and then flew into her white palm with Hathaway's gently shaking palm.
"Teacher, I am no longer a little girl, you have despised my strength, my wisdom, and my faith. β
In the whispers, the runes shattered one by one, turning into bits of azure stars, reflecting her as luxurious and sacred as a goddess.
..................
"We're not hostile! We're here for a friendly ditch...... Ahββ!h
The sound of a tweeter that had been shouting all the time finally disappeared as a ball of fire fell.
Five floating ships hovered over the island like five steel beasts. But the heavy oppression they brought had completely dissipated, and dozens of magical flying boats were like nimble swallows, shuttling back and forth inside and outside the shields of the floating ships, pouring clouds of fireworks and blue and white light onto the decks and even cabins.
"Driving a warship and driving a cannon to communicate friendly? When a person is a one-meter-two child!"
The silver-haired girl in the goggles cursed and steered the flying boat over the largest floating ship once more.
"Whewββ!"
The thrill of the wind and lightning made the Witch of Pain cry out with joy.
Although I didn't play for long, the operation method was no different from that of the floating horse, and I got started at once. Not only Finney, but everyone else is also very proficient, and the only test is that they are too fast......
On the beach, Sakhina jumped to her feet in a hurry, saw a flying boat falling into the sea, and pulled the deacon next to her and said, "Haven't you contacted the master yet?"
The deacon smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Sakhina, you can't even contact the patriarch, what can we do for a small character like us?"
Sakhina pointed to the sky and said, "Then go and help!"
"Without the order of the patriarch, we dare not be the enemy of the High Council", the deacon looked at the floating ship, his brows twisted, "Seeing that the number is the detachment of the Menesus family, how can there be a conflict between the patriarch and the dean? β
"No matter how big the misunderstanding is, without the master's order, they can't arrest the duke's people!"
Sakhina gritted her teeth: "Forget it, since you can't count on it, find me a flying boat!"
The deacon shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly, now was probably the most incompetent moment in his life: "All the flying boats have been taken away, and a few young men who tried to stop them are still lying on the ground humming." β
Thinking that the girls just now were so decisive that they didn't communicate with each other at all, and drove the boat directly to the floating ship, the already old deacon clenched his fists, and felt his heart surging with blood.
He whispered, "I said that the flying boat can be used in battle! They never believed it, look at the scene in front of them! Come on! girls!"
Finney shouted, "Tina, it's up to you!"
Behind her seat, a half-elf girl in a hat squatted in the space that was supposed to be used to store things, carrying a magic fire bomb aimed at the cockpit of the floating ship.
The fireball drew a full arc and landed on a large section of the deck behind the target, blasting several people into the air.
Finney shouted, "Ahead of time!"
Tina replied in embarrassment: "You know!? It's obvious that your unsteady driving made my hands tremble!"
"I'm driving unsteadily!?"
Finney exaggeratedly exclaimed, "If I drive unsteadily, you will fall long ago!"
Tina yelled angrily, "Is that your standard?"
The two of them screamed at the same time, and a wave of crossbow arrows shot straight at them, followed by a dense array of magic missiles. It should have been a battle mage's attack.
The ship pulled up rapidly, the crossbow bolt grazing its tail, but the magic missile continued to correct its trajectory until it hit the back of the ship.
Finney hurriedly emphasized that it was not her fault: "Cheating! This is an anti-aircraft gun at all!"
Tina's whole body was thrown out of the boat, she grabbed the back of the seat, and shouted in horror, "I'm going to fall!"
"It's so strange, are you going to fall to your death?"
"Oh, forgot ......"
The flying boat rose to the top of the parabola and fell straight down, and the magic guide device at the tail had been destroyed, and there was no way to fly.
Tina pointed at the other party's flagship and shouted, "Smash it!
Fei Ni replied, "I know, jump gang fights! Our people have gone up a lot......
A flying boat slammed into the flagship's deck, sweeping down a crowd of people. The tall figure that jumped out spread its blazing white wings, the great sword swung out, and another group of people flew out with all kinds of debris.
"Catherine has always been so direct and rude......"
Finney sighed and jumped out of the cockpit, her shield wrapped around, her wings stretched out, and slowly floated down.
"When I go back, I'm going to make up a magic ...... that flies faster than a flying boat."
An ice spear appeared in the little girl's hand, much shorter than usual, and she muttered dissatisfiedly: "If there is no membrane, I can crush you iron lumps with one finger!"
Tina was long gone, only faint ripples could be seen in the air, and in an instant she was on the deck, and the crystal scythe slashed down one target after another.
Underneath the flagship, several flying boats were attached to the hull, and Gambit and a few Fei Gong warriors stepped on the flying boats, picked up maces and long swords, smashed the shell that was just ordinary metal, and rushed into the cabin.
Gambit shouted, "Control the power cabin!"
This flagship, seventy or eighty meters long and carrying more than two hundred people, was in an extremely embarrassing situation under the attack of three witches and twenty or thirty hero-level crimson warriors.
"Flagship! Flagship! Need support?"
The wingman restlessly called out to the flagship, adjusting his distance to avoid being hurt by the flagship's attack.
This is a situation that has never been encountered before, the floating ship has been beaten by dozens of inconspicuous magic flying boats, and it has not been able to fight back! The magic guide cannon on the ship has not fired a single fire so far, because not only will it miss, but it will also hurt the friendly ship.
Probably the Storm Islands have never had a large-scale air battle, even if it was a civil war between families, or the previous Golden Revolution, it was directly teleported to the opponent's magic tower. Bombarding the Magic Tower with the Magic Cannon, dropping the Floatship full of Demon Warriors and Battle Mages, that's all the Floatship does.
Occasionally, there is a battle of floating ships, which is also the standard process for magic guide cannons to bombard, and then jump to each other's gangs to attack.
A fragile toy like a magic flying boat can also be used in battle?
"Move closer to me! Move closer to me!"
The anxious shouts of the flagship commander were heard over the communicator: "We don't have many of them! Hurry up and support me! For the sake of Menesus!"
Someone next to the commander shouted: "Who leaked the news? Didn't you say that you pretended to take them to the new mansion and take the opportunity to detain them again? Why did you turn your face when you saw us...... Ahββ!h
Screams rang out one after another in the communicator, and everyone on the bridge of the other four floating ships shuddered when they heard this movement.
On the nearest wingship, someone unconsciously looked up, saw movement outside the porthole, and screamed.
The flagship actually began to roll and press towards them.
The captain shouted: "Get out of the ββ!"
The helmsman's face turned pale and he spun the wheel frantically.
There was a laugh of ah-ha coming from the communicator, which seemed extremely cheerful, and made the other people on the floating ship creepy.
In addition to this crazy laughter, there are also the shouts of big and small girls.
"Catherine, I'm going to tell Litch you're crazy again!"
"Stop! I'm dizzy!"
It wasn't just a dizziness here, because it was so close that the flagship slammed into the wingship, spun and pressed against it, crushing all the buildings on the deck to pieces.
The officer who took over the command ordered: "Open fire! Destroy the power compartment of the flagship and see how they can move!"
Someone hesitated: "But the patriarch explained that there is Queen Theresia's sister inside, and she must not be harmed, and there is a silver-haired little girl, so she must also be safe." β
The officer was obviously a cronie, and said decisively: "They are all saints, and they can't die if they are directly hit by the magic cannon! If they don't fire the cannon, they will run away!"
The remaining three wingmen opened fire one after another, and the fireblast, fire, arcane, and frost rays bombarded the flagship, and the shield only lasted for a moment before turning into a cloud of shatters. The already tattered hull of the ship was exposed, and it collapsed in the fierce fire of the magic guide cannon.
In the communicator, you can still hear the voices of the big and small girls.
"What to do! The ship is going to rot!"
"Jump on the other floating ships!"
"I can't jump! The magic guide is bombarding outside, and even if you can't die, you have to lack arms and legs!"
"Bump!"
"How can you hit one under you!"
"Jump!
On the small island, watching the flagship that was set on fire crumble out of large pieces, Sakhina knelt weakly on the beach and said bitterly: "Duke...... Master...... I didn't protect everyone......"
Not far away, the petite gray elf girl was churning vigorously, and the four tall and burly guards couldn't hold her down.
Insi shouted hysterically: "Let go of me, I want to go up, let go of ......"
She stopped abruptly, and the guards, deacons, and Sakhina froze at the same time.
A purple shadow appeared in the sky above the floating ship, shooting out stripes of purple light like silk.
The purple light penetrated the shield of the floating ship, chiseled holes into the hull, and penetrated straight into the hull.
The three floating ships shook at the same time, and the floating core crystal lost its effect, falling rapidly like a piece of iron, smashing three huge water columns on the sea.
A deep but melodious voice spread across the island: "Who is so bold as to attack my VIPs!?"
