"She couldn't escape. Read the full text of the latest chapter. Cassius, who was standing farther away, smiled confidently when he saw that Karen was surrounded by his "diamond stardust".

Sophia nodded at Cassius as a sign of trust in her companion. Then she turned her head and shouted to Karen, "Who are you, and why are you attacking me?"

"Let's go to the underworld and ask again!"

As one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, how arrogant is Kalian, how can she, who doesn't even care about the Lich King, endure the questioning of a few normal humans?

"Bang" - the round shield and the spear once again launched a collision of pure power, however, the miscalculated Karen did not make any breakthroughs, and not only that, but instead went from being evenly matched to being slightly inferior. Due to the loss of the kinetic energy advantage of the mount's charge, the power of this piercing was much less than before, and it was easily prevented by Sophia, who had been completely Valkyrie, and did not make Sophia take half a step back, but because of the strength of the rebound, the black horse that she stepped on was a little messy.

But the partners' counterattack is not so simple. As if anticipating that the stubborn Black Knight might give up his life, Joika, who was hiding in the distant sniper position, did not let up, and he did not hesitate to shoot the arrow in his hand when Karen's slightest movement. Although the whistling arrow had no magic attached, it was too late for Karen's focus on attacking Sophia in front of her, so she noticed the attack.

The sharp arrow struck the target, Karen's straddle mount, Pegasus "Doomsday".

The dark horse let out a terrible wail. Immediately after that, the wall of ice and dust behind him began to surge, and under the manipulation of Cassius, hundreds of thousands of ice dust as hard as diamonds broke away from the ice wall and overturned towards the restless man and horseman.

Seeing that it was impossible for the black horse to escape, Karen simply pressed her hands to the ground, relying on the anti-heaping force formed by the cold air in the palms of her hands hitting the ground, and the volley bounced more than ten meters high;

However, Karen was not able to escape from the encirclement of the ice wall from the air, because she was not the only one who could leap up with the help of magic, and the power of the fire was more powerful than the energy of ice. Sophia was the first to strike, leaping higher than Karen first, picking up her spear and sweeping Karen below. Karen, apparently unprepared for this extreme state, hurriedly raised her spear and fired back. (hua.advertisement)

Karene is knocked back to the ground by Sophia's move. When Karen got back to her feet, the Valkyrie's spear slashed against her head at the moment of the confrontation in the air, causing the helmet, which had already broken a horn, to break in half and fall at Karen's feet.

Sophia was a little surprised by the true face of the female black knight. This white-haired girl who looks like she is only about 15 years old is too young to have anything to do with the cold and ruthless black knight who almost killed her.

But surprise to surprise, the companions have seen too many unexpected situations, and they will not let their guard down because of the appearance of their enemies.

"Miss, I think it's time for you to give up your arms and surrender. Joika jumped up from her hiding place as well, drawing her bow and aiming her arrow at Karen.

The ice wall of ice dust was even closer to Karen, squeezing any inch of her space to move, and the flickering ice dust stopped as if to tell Sù Karen that the reason why she was not torn to shreds was because the magician did not want her life yet.

Coupled with Sophia's unfathomable strength, Karene knows nothing worse than now.

"Excuse me, Charles?" Karen, holding up the spear in her hand, her eyes glazed over.

She knew she couldn't fly, but she couldn't do it anyway if she wanted her to surrender and give her brother over to someone else. At this time, the only thing Karen could do was to destroy Miè with her younger brother......

"Uh......h Woo......"

Just as Karen was about to detonate all the magic in her body and die with these three difficult opponents, an incredible roar suddenly came from behind her.

In fact, this roaring sound is not unusual, and there is nothing special about it, the reason why it is said to be incredible is because the occasion of the sound is completely wrong.

Why does the whistle of a ship that should sail on the endless sea sound inland?

As the roar grew louder and closer, a huge black shadow appeared in the haze.

"Is it him?!" Karene put down her spear and turned around, looking through the walls of ice as she watched the huge black shadow that was rapidly approaching, a look of joy on her face.

Eventually, the behemoth revealed its true face from the haze of the woods: it was actually a cruiser-class giant three-masted galleon!

The wooden hull and cloth sails are covered with traces of time, and although they are dilapidated, they cannot help but be awe-inspiring. On the bow of the ship are carved three huge dice reliefs. The sudden appearance of the giant ship on the land seemed to treat the land as an ocean for it to gallop on, and it was flattened everywhere it went, and a wide and long keel drag appeared in the woods, and it slammed into the wall of ice crystals composed of hundreds of millions of ice crystal dust that was close to the hardness of diamonds.

Cassius hurriedly changed the distribution of mana, allowing Ice Dust to meet the menacing giant ship with all his might.

The hull of the ship began to fall apart from the bow under the hundreds of millions of blades, but to Cassius's shock, the ship seemed to be self-healing, the shredded parts quickly healed themselves, and because the hull was so large that hundreds of millions of diamond stardust could not dismantle the ship in one go, it would repair indefinitely and rush forward.

When the ship was close enough, Cassius saw the name of the ship that was faintly recognizable on the side of the ship, "The Flying Dutchman"!

"That's ......," Cassius was cold, and the well-read man flashed through his mind some of the fragments he had read in the book.

That is the name of the legendary ship of calamity, a mysterious "ghost ship" that is recorded in ancient books.

In the midst of Cassius's thoughts, the ghost ship rushed in front of him. Cassius was unable to move his body due to the remote control of the "Diamond Stardust", and he was about to be crushed into a pulp by the ghost ship. Sophia decisively gave up guarding Karen and rushed to Cashu.

"Empress Holy Shield!

Valkyrie Alvet's two stunts were unleashed in succession, the strongest defense against the impact of the ghost ship, and the strongest attack penetrated into the interior of the ghost ship.

"Boom"!

In a loud and earth-shattering sound, the magic energy of divine fire, ice crystals, and ghost ships, three different attributes, exploded violently in the collision with each other, although there was no scorching flame, but the powerful shock wave almost leveled everything as far as the eye could see.

At the heart of the explosion, the ghost ship "Flying Dutchman" was gone, leaving only a crater as large as the ship's diameter.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough......"

Sophia coughed and tumbled out of the dirt that had buried her. Due to the protection of the "Empress's Aegis", the shockwave from the explosion failed to cause much damage to Sophia, but Sophia also consumed too much, and the Valkyrie's soul was automatically lifted, at which point she reverted to the weak priestess. But the pure white priest's robes and the beautiful long golden hair that represented holiness were covered with dirty black mud, and the wolf bèi was unbearable.

"Cassius, Joyka, where are you?" said Sophia, who had escaped from the trap, and instead of looking out for herself, she called out to her two companions.

"I'm fine......" "Hell yes, I'm unlucky today!"

Cassius and Joyka both came out of the black mud one after the other, and although they looked dirtier and more wolfish than Sophia, neither of them was seriously injured because Joica was standing far away and Cassius was under the protection of Sophia's "Empress Aegis".

Sophia breathed a long sigh of relief when she saw that her two companions were all right, but as soon as she relaxed, she suddenly remembered something very important: "Oops! What about the woman?"

Sophia knew that Karen was powerful and cold-blooded, and if Karen suddenly attacked at this time, she would definitely be unable to resist being unable to use the Valkyrie's soul in a short period of time.

Sophia looked around, but could not find any sign of the black knight, who was weak in appearance but in fact extremely dangerous. Just when she was anxious, a conversation between a man and a woman suddenly came:

"Suleiman, why are you here? I should be the only one who has awakened. ”

"Ma'am, I'm here to help you. ”

"I don't need your help! ”

"Miss Karen, this is not good. How can a gentleman let a beautiful lady be in danger and remain indifferent?"

"You ......"

Sophia followed the sound to the edge of the pit. I saw that Karen was arguing fiercely with a burly man. Since the man had his back to Sophia, it was not clear what he looked like for the time being. But Sophia and Karen are in opposite positions, so when Sophia sees Kalian, the other party also sees her.

As if noticing the angry and wary look in Kalian's eyes as she looked at Sophia, the man turned around as well.

He looked like a middle-aged man in his 40s, with a face carved with marks that only a long struggle at sea would have left behind, and a long gray beard tied into a braid at the chin. Unlike the heavily armed Kalian, the man wore no armor, but instead wore a blue-and-black aristocratic attire, a triangular captain's hat common in naval forces, and a pirate scimitar at his waist, which was used for broadside warfare at sea.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry. The first time we met, I used such a rude way to greet them. The man took off his triangular captain's hat—he was bald—and he put it on his chest, stooped down and gave Sophia a very standard gentlemanly salute, and spoke with a smile on his face.

"Who the hell are you?" Although the other party's behavior seemed very gentlemanly, it did not make Sophia less vigilant.

"Please relax, ma'am. The man seemed to want to ease Sophia's nervousness with a smile, "Forgive me for not introducing myself to the beautiful lady in the first place." I am the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Suleiman Pacchi, and the Vice-Admiral of the Naval Commander of the city-state of Nailo. ”
