Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Valkyrie

() Thinking about it for no benefit, Saint-Angel began to look at the surrounding environment, only to see that there were five large trees with round and thin leaves at the scene, the crown was about five meters high from the ground, and Saint-Angel took out an old parchment scroll and opened it, on it was a nine-sided shape, and a big tree was drawn in the middle, the shape was exactly the same as the five trees in front of him, yes, as seen in the illustrated book, these trees are the only five remaining homesickness trees in the world, Saint-Angel thought

At this time, St. Angel also noticed that there were four other stumps next to the five large trees, and it was assumed that these were originally living homesickness trees, but they were cut down by successive ogres to make giant maces, and these four stumps and the five living trees around them formed an equilateral ninetagon, exactly like the one shown on the parchment scroll

What else is the secret, St. Angel still can't guess after thinking about it, the noise in the distance is getting closer and closer, the ogres can't find it in the room, she will definitely search around, and soon find this place, if she finds out the secret of the parchment, she will be in trouble

She began to think of a proverb that had been handed down among the saints throughout the ages from the time when she asked the Halfling Terran to keep the ritual weapon: Only light can know miracles, only faith can see miracles, only perseverance can encounter miracles, and only devotion can obtain miracles

Do you want me to directly cast the magic of light in order to find the hiding place of that magic weapon, but the pure-Teresa saint of the time in order to prevent the people of the Pope's family from obtaining the magic weapon, how can there be such a simple solution, and then Saint-Angel continued to ponder the meaning of those proverbs: light, faith, perseverance, and dedication...... Taken together, does it mean to dedicate oneself to the faith of the light...... Suddenly, a word crossed Saint-Angel's mind: sacrifice

It must be a sacrifice, and the method of casting light magic with the art of sacrifice is only known to the Holy Maiden of Radiance in the past, and the Pope knows nothing at all

St. Angel immediately stood in the center of the nine-sided shape, she cut her wrist with a short sword, and the red blood flowed down, and then the blood was transformed into light energy, and at this time, in the center of the nine-sided shape surrounded by these trees and stumps, which is now where St. Angel is standing, a secret door in the ground suddenly opened--ah, the glow of the light, the saint fell down

Bang - the secret door closes quickly

The guardian beast Xiaobai watched St. Angel disappear between several large trees and stumps, and it was a little curious that this human could actually tear through space out of thin air

It was also at this time that the white tiger and the thunderbird suddenly became restless as if they had heard something, the white tiger suppressed the sky, let out a tiger roar, tore the space with one claw, and jumped in, and then Xiaolan also flew into the space crack

Once again, a large number of ogre troops, attracted by the white light and the roar of the tiger, pounced

Where is this, the Radiant Saintess touched her head and stood up, and there was darkness all around, and Saint-Angel couldn't help but be a little confused

She casts a magic of light, making the silver cross glow, illuminating it and healing her wounds

St. Angel carried the glowing cross step by step, and in front of her was a long corridor, with a row of torches planted on each side of the wall, and every two torches were two meters apart, and St. Angel took a step forward, and the two torches closest to her suddenly caught fire, and the torches on both sides were lit one by one, near and far

The craftsmanship of the halflings in making the mechanism is breathtaking, and if they want to, they can turn this illuminated mechanism into a murderous trap at any time, and Saint-Angel sighed if this place was not only accessible to people of the Radiant Maiden

She extinguished the light from the cross, took out a piece of gauze, bandaged her wound that had stopped bleeding, and after doing this, St. Angel continued on her way

St. Angel walked to the end of the corridor, which was a huge circular room, at least 100 meters straight, with a hemispherical roof, a torch hanging from the wall, and a huge chandelier on the ceiling illuminating the huge room, and St. Angel saw that at the other end of the room opposite her was an altar with a rectangular box on the altar

Sure enough, here St. Angel smiled and walked towards the altar

However, as St. Angel walked to the middle of the room, a strong wave of magic was generated in the air around her, and the center of the fluctuation was at her feet

Feeling that the situation was not good, Saint-Angel immediately retreated to the original path, and at this time, she found that a magic array with a diameter of four meters appeared on the ground in the center of the room, and the surrounding magic elements quickly gathered towards the center of the magic array, producing a burst of pink light

The bright light forced St. Angel to cover her eyes with her sleeves, and when the pink light faded, St. Angel found a humanoid magical creature with a glowing body standing in the center of the magic circle

The magical creature appeared to be a tall woman with a bird-wing helmet adorned with feathers on her head, long hair in a ponytail flowing behind her head, and a blood-red stunted robe with a set of antique studded short armor on the outside, a glowing spear and shield in her hands, and a saber at her waist

At this time, St. Angel noticed a strange sign carved on the woman's round shield, which was a two-headed wolf, one wolf with a sharp sword, and the other wolf head spewed out a ball of flame, which was impossible, and St. Angel recognized the sign, a legendary totem of a mysterious race, which had perished long before the history of the modern Olopa civilization began

My name is Alvet, and I was ordered to guard the relics and annihilate the intruder, the female magical creature raised her spear and stabbed St. Angel, who immediately jumped away from the spot and plunged the spear diagonally into the ground

The rubble struck Saint-Angel and caused her to tingle

Wait, I'm the owner of the relics of the descendants of the Purity-Teresa who put the relics here...... St. Angel hurriedly explained to the female magical creature named Alvet

However, Alvette ignored her words, she pulled the spear out of the ground and stabbed it again, who quickly retreated and escaped from the range of the spear, but to Saint-Angie's surprise, the spear suddenly increased several times, and kept chasing St. Angel's vital parts

Saint-Angel was so startled that she hurriedly rolled on the ground, but still took a step too late, and the spear slashed through her right shoulder, and blood flowed profusely

Stop, listen to me first, okay, St. Angel endured the pain and shouted to the magical creature

My name is Alvet, and I was ordered to guard the relics and annihilate the intruders, and the answer to St. Angel was still the same cold words and another attack of the spear

It seems that he had no choice but to fight, and after dodging the third round of blows, he clung to the two short swords and thought to himself: It seems that it is not enough to obtain the holy relic as a radiant saintess, it must have enough strength to protect it, this Wagre is not easy to deal with, if I can defeat her, it means that I already have the strength to protect the holy relic

Taking advantage of Alvet's spear, St. Angel bent down and rushed in between Alvet's attacks, attempting to carry out a surprise attack

In ancient legends, before the current civilization of Olopa was born, there was a mysterious tribe called Vagre, and the women of this tribe were all excellent warriors, they were not only physically strong, skilled in martial arts, but also proficient in magic

Legend has it that every year, the Vagres would compete to select one of the best female warriors to receive harsher training from the gods, and they were all virgin warriors who swore to serve the gods of the time, and were chosen by the gods and received the power of demigods, so they were also called Valkyries

These legendary Valkyries possessed great power, bestowing the most wonderful deaths on their opponents on the battlefield and leading their souls to Valhalla, which the gods used to train Protoss warriors, in order to spread the power of the gods in response to the subsequent destruction of the gods called Ragnarok

However, much of the Valkyrie has long since been lost, and the only remnants of the prehistoric materials that can be found in Olopa are references to this mysterious tribe, and it is only speculated from these fragmented accounts that the Vagure died out in the brutal infighting due to their aggressiveness

It is said that there were thousands of Vagree warriors who could become Valkyries throughout the ages, but only twenty-eight of them were last handed down with names: Brünnhilde, Jerolur, Alvet, Jershkegul, Grey, Gendall, Gunna, Guth, Haveyot, Helvir, Hilud, Holard, Horace Gruth, Herok, Horest, Myster, Orlune, Lotta, Randygris, Lacegrace, Regileff, Higdalif, Higrune, Shigargour, Scargarid, Scorti, Svifa, Slude

The female magical creature claimed to be Alvet, one of the twenty-eight named Valkyries, and with the two-headed wolf totem on her round shield, Saint-Angel concluded that she must have met one of the Valkyries

Alvette saw St. Angel rushing towards her, she let go of her spear, turned her shield, and blocked St. Angie's attack with a clatter, and then St. Angel saw only a flash of white light, and she was surprised by the speed at which Alvette drew her saber, and this time she counterattacked, although St. Angel dodged in a wolf way, but her left arm had been cut by the saber, and the blood stained the white priest's robe

My name is Alvet, and I was ordered to guard the relics and annihilate a qiē invader.
