Verdant forest, middle and outer forest.

Verdant woodland.

In this woodland, there are a large number of goblin warriors fighting back and forth with the elven swordsmen, and in the distance, a goblin in leather armor with dual swords and another silver-haired elf in simple armor are engaged in a sword-to-sword duel!

*

I held the crystal "Frost Zhi" of the sword in my left hand, and the "Lost Black Talisman" of the black sword body in my right hand, and rushed to the silver-haired elf with an arrow step to perform a wonderful cross slash, watching the cross-sword double sword, the silver-haired elf held the sword in one hand, and blocked my slash very lightly.

"Obviously, your body should have suffered very serious internal injuries, but your speed has not slowed down at all. That's good!" the silver-haired elf said with a long sword in his hand, blocking the goblin swinging in front of him one by one.

I ignored the silver-haired elf's approval, and the two swords in my left and right hands slashed swiftly towards his chest.

In the face of my successive sword slashes, the silver-haired elf in front of me with a long sword in hand could always block it with ease and without pressure.

"Your swordsmanship is pretty weird, but it's good! I can see you have a good teacher!" said the silver-haired elf, holding his long sword, blocking the goblin in front of him and backing back.

"It's a pity that some of your swordsmanship moves are full of flaws!"

The long sword bounced off the double swords I had chopped, and the moment the swords were bounced away, my body involuntarily paused.

Looking at the goblin who stopped and showed a fatal flaw, the silver-haired elf stabbed me in the throat with a long sword in hand!

"Tsk!"

Looking at the rapidly approaching tip of the sword, I relied on my subconscious instinct to pick up the "Lost Black Talisman" held in my right hand, and the long sword that stabbed at my throat was accurately blocked by a black sword, but I was always one step slower to resist.

The blade of the longsword sliced through the skin on the left side of my neck as easily as tissue paper, and red blood flowed down the cold blade.

"Cut!" I slashed at the silver-haired elf's neck with the Frost Angelica I held in my left hand.

However, before Frost Zhi's blade could slash the silver-haired elf, he was caught off guard and kicked me in the lower abdomen!

"Quack, ah, ah!!" I was kicked by him, and I fell a few meters away.

"Instinct is good! It's hard for you to be able to block a sword I stabbed in an instant at that mortal distance. The silver-haired elf looked at the goblin lying on the ground a few meters away, and waved the sword in his hand to drain the blood from it.

"Ahem, ahem!!" I got up, sat on my knees, and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

(The physical condition is really bad...... The organs in the body may have ruptured from the previous series of blows, right? This guy! He's really stronger than anyone I've met so far!)

The "Lost Black Talisman" held in my right hand was heavily inserted into the hard soil, and I used all my strength to focus on the right hand holding the hilt of the "Lost Black Talisman", and in the next second, I struggled to stand up.

Seeing the goblin who had fallen to the ground get back on his feet, the silver-haired elf looked at me with no more contempt than before, and now he looked at this goblin with admiration.

"Advanced Healing (Whispering) ......"

I whispered a small spell to heal me, a green glow slowly enveloping the various wounds on my body.

"You must have been seriously injured, why do you have to stand up, isn't it good to continue lying on the ground and waiting to die?" asked the silver-haired elf, looking at the goblin who was barely able to stand on his feet.

Hearing what the silver-haired elf in front of me said, my brows furrowed, and the two swords I held in both hands instantly tightened my grip.

"Hehe~ha-why do I have to wait for death?!" Suddenly, I laughed out loud with mixed feelings, and after laughing for a while, I looked at the silver-haired elf in front of me and asked categorically!

"That's right, so go on, and you can continue to fight me, right?"

Hearing the words of the goblin in front of him, the silver-haired elf put on an expression that he already knew that I would say this, only to see him ask with a calm smile.

"Of course you can!"

At this time, my footsteps were no longer unsteady, and the tips of the 'Frost Zhi' and 'Lost Black Talisman' swords held in my left and right hands were already aimed at the silver-haired elf in front of me.

"Come on!" the silver-haired elf beckoned to the goblin in front of him again.

............

Verdant forests, Kejie City, underground world, black-framed elder's residence, hidden stone chambers.

Winya, who was sitting on the stone chair, had an anxious look on her face at this time, why was she so anxious?

The sigil on her right hand was now glowing continuously, and this had been going on several times, and the mark was not only glowing, but also bursts of irregular, chaotic heartbeats.

This is a rather bad sign, and the linker on the other end of the bond magic must be seriously injured at the moment.

"Why...... You're going to do such a dangerous thing?!"

Suddenly, Winya shouted loudly to the empty side, and the slightly angry timbre of her voice took up a large part.

"Even if... You shouldn't have done that for my sake......"

Looking at the hard, cold stone wall, Winya continued, this time her voice trembling and frightened.

“...... If you die... What should I do?!"

Winya's voice was particularly sad, and a drop of crystal-like water slid down her face.

............

In the next second, the silver-haired elf and I each rushed towards each other in an instant, the double sword and the single sword constantly intersecting back and forth, and with each impact, sparks like raindrops continued to splash out.

"That's it!" said the silver-haired elf happily as he held his sword and blocked the goblin in front of him.

I unleashed all my strength with my twin swords and unleashed a cross slash once more, and the silver-haired elf habitually parried with the longsword in his hand in the face of the incoming slash.

Although the silver-haired elf held the long sword in his hand and blocked the cross slash of my twin swords, he also took a few steps backwards because of it.

"That slash was good, let's try it again?" said the silver-haired elf as he waved at me with his right hand.

"A word of caution, don't talk so much useless nonsense in the middle of a fight!" I said with a silent gesture of admonition to the silver-haired elf in front of me.

"You're still good at learning!" said the silver-haired elf with a sneer at what the goblin had just said.

Storage!

In my hands, the "Lost Black Talisman" and "Frost Stone" were constantly converging with a faint white light, and as the light continued to gather, the white light gradually became dazzling.

"You guy, have you reached this level of comprehending sword qi?!" Seeing the dazzling white light flashing on the dual swords held by the goblin, the silver-haired elf's expression instantly became extremely serious.

(Not fast enough!faster!faster!faster!!)

The sword body that was already emitting a very dazzling white light instantly transformed into a pale golden light in the next second, and the double swords that exuded pale golden light looked very holy.

"Mori no Extreme!"

After seeing the dazzling white light turn into a pale golden light, the silver-haired elf held the hilt of the sword with both hands and snorted coldly,

On the long sword he held in his hand, an emerald green light full of life instantly filled the sword body, and the fierce and dangerous aura of killing and sharpness in the emerald green light continued to float out.

Secondary energy storage!

As my mind moved, the palms of the two swords were violently forced, and in an instant, the pale golden light on the swords of the Lost Black Talisman and the Frost Zhi swords turned into a brilliant golden luster, and the twin swords, which originally looked very holy, looked extremely solemn at the moment.

"Is this guy really hiding his strength?!"

Seeing the brilliant golden luster emanating from the goblin twin swords in front of him, the silver-haired elf's face showed a look that was somewhat unexpected.

Suddenly, with two swords in hand, I ran in the direction of the silver-haired elf not far away, and when he saw me running, the silver-haired elf did not make any backward movements, but held a long sword and put on a parrying posture, waiting for what kind of swordsmanship I would use next.

(Great!That's it!!)

"Type 2 · V-cut !!"

Just as I was ten meters away from the silver-haired elf, the "Frost Zhi" I held in my left hand and the "Lost Black Talisman" in my right hand slashed forward at the same time.

The huge V-shaped slash composed of two golden sword qi quickly attacked towards the silver-haired elf in front of him, and the original brilliant golden sword body of these two slashes instantly turned into the previous pale gold.

"It's quite a set!"

Looking at the two golden light sword qi that were close at hand, the silver-haired elf held the long sword with both hands and tilted it slightly to a subtle angle.

"Emerald Blade!"

Just as the V-shaped slash was about to hit the silver-haired elf's body, the silver-haired elf held the long sword in his hand and swung a very ordinary slash, and a turquoise light blade slashed at the two golden sword qi that I slashed out!

The V-shaped slash composed of two golden sword qi and the turquoise light blade collided to the death, and the edges between the sword qi and the light blade cut each other like water and fire.

Taking advantage of the impact of the sword qi and the light blade to dissipate, I quickly rushed to a position five meters away from the left side of the silver-haired elf.

The silver-haired elf calmly looked at the goblin who was still running five meters away, and aimed the sharp tip of the sword with the long sword in his hand at me as he ran.

"Three-tooth !!"

I slammed out my twin swords, and two pale golden sword qi slashed towards the silver-haired elf in an instant!

"Humph!"

The silver-haired elf snorted coldly, holding the sword in both hands, blocking the sword qi that the goblin in front of him slashed again.

It's just that the sword aura this time is completely different from the previous block, and the long sword held by the silver-haired elf in his hand constantly feels a vibration similar to some kind of saw, and the hands holding the hilt of the sword have begun to loosen a little.

On the ground at the feet of the silver-haired elf lay a series of tooth marks that resembled those of a beast biting, as neat as a sword slash.

"Got it!!"

Looking at the small flaws exposed by the silver-haired elf in front of me, I ran to a meter away from the silver-haired elf with my twin swords, and slashed at the silver-haired elf's neck with the 'Lost Black Talisman' held in my right hand.

"Aren't you going to take a look at your men?" said the silver-haired elf, sneering at the corners of his mouth.

“......？！”

Hearing the silver-haired elf's words, I subconsciously withdrew the 'Lost Black Talisman' that was about to slash at his neck, glanced behind me, and immediately turned to run towards Jot and them.

The silver-haired elf stretched out his index finger and touched his left cheek, and there was a slight tingling sensation on his left cheek, and when he saw the red blood on his index finger, the corners of the silver-haired elf's mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a knowing smile.

"Pretty capable~"

In front of me, Jot, the goblin warriors, had all been knocked down by the ten spirits flying in the air, some of them were seriously injured and fell to the ground, and some of them were less injured and sat on their knees with difficulty.

Inhale-exhale

As I ran, I took a big gulp of cold air, withdrew the "Frost Root" held in my left hand into the scabbard tied to my back, and the right hand holding the "Lost Black Talisman" moved almost simultaneously with the left hand that did not hold anything.

The magic power on my left palm continued to gather on the palm, and the magic power gathered on the palm of my hand turned into a magic circle of orange light about the size of my palm after a series of carvings.

"Go!"

With a flick of my left hand, the magic circle floating in my palm instantly enveloped Jot and their incapable goblin warriors, and my hanging heart let go after seeing them protected by the light of the magic array.

(Now it's the ten spirits in the air!)

The ten elves flying in the air also noticed the running goblins on the ground, and they all flew down in the direction of me with swords and other weapons.

When I saw the ten elves swooping towards me, I stopped running and held the Lost Black Talisman with both hands and slashed with my sword.

"Four Diseases, Silver Light Falling Blade - Sword Wind !!!"

I let out a loud shout, and my hands that held the Lost Black Talisman slashed at the ten elves who swooped down!

A gust of wind mixed with the continuous spiraling transparent sword qi struck towards the ten elves who swooped down like a tornado.

"Wow !!"

"What's going on with this gust?!"

"Beware!

The elves who swooped down were instantly blown away by the strong wind, and some were blown away by the strong wind, and the transparent sword qi easily cut through the armor joints exposed on the ten elves.

The ten elves who had been injured by the sword qi fell crookedly from mid-air, but there were no serious injuries on their bodies.

"Temporarily resolved ......"

I let out a deep sigh and let out a long breath to relieve my tense body, the four sword qi in the [Sword Qi Ten Styles] that I used in the previous section had caused a lot of physical consumption to my body.

“...... Tut Warrior Captain ......"

(Huh?, it seems to be Jot's voice.) ）

Hearing the shouts coming from behind me, I felt a little confused.

"Captain Tut, be careful!!" Jot's voice came from behind me again.

(Be careful? The ten elves have been sent into the air by me...... And ......?!)

When I think of that dangerous figure, it seems too late......

Burst!

It's the sound of a familiar weapon piercing through my flesh......

A strange cold sensation came out of my chest, in addition to the cold feeling and the huge pain that came with it!

A long sword with a small blade pierced my body, and I was all too familiar with the owner of this long sword...... He's the silver-haired elf I fought just now.

"I have to say that your action just now is really good, you carved out the magic array with one hand and slashed out a continuous stream of sword qi again, I underestimated you before! But you're done here, goblin!!"

The silver-haired elf with the hilt of his sword in his left hand stood in front of me, looking at the goblin in front of him like a confidant he had just recognized.

"Air compression!" I chanted a spell of magic as I endured the pain from my sword piercing my chest.

On my left hand, a large cloud of pale green wind elements was constantly concentrating and compressing, and when the wind element on my left palm was compressed to a certain extent, I aimed my left palm at the silver-haired elf right in front of me.

"I didn't want to use this trick...... Ahem!!!I'm going to be hurt by this spell even if I'm a caster!!"

I didn't bother to wipe the blood that kept flowing from my mouth, and I said hysterically, and the pale green wind elemental magic floating on the palm of my left hand instantly shone brightly.

“......？！”

Before the silver-haired elf could dodge backwards, he was knocked out by a huge impact, and I was also knocked to the ground in the distance at the other end.

:

"Your Highness, are you alright?!" Seeing the silver-haired elves being shocked and flying out, the ten elves standing not far away suddenly showed worried expressions on their faces.

"Captain Tut, run away! Don't fight! Give up our wounded soldiers and run away!!"

When the Goblin Warriors in the Orange Light Magic Array saw the seriously injured Captain Tut being shocked to the ground in the distance, they all shouted eagerly in the direction where the Captain Tut had fallen!

:

Lying on the cold, hard woodland with bare roots, I felt as if I really couldn't move my body at the moment, and the wound on my chest that had been pierced by the silver-haired elf was really bleeding blood... It only took a few moments for blood to soak into the leather armor on my upper body......

(It's so sleepy...) It's the same feeling as it was back then... When you were hit by that truck...... ）

"Captain Tut Warrior...... Run!......"

(Is it Jot, are they shouting?...... Let me run alone?)

Hearing Jot's shouts suddenly gave my already immobile body an inexplicable strength, and I struggled to get up from the woods and sit on my knees.

"Sorry !!!"

Just as I was about to stand up on my knees, suddenly a large mouthful of blood came out of my throat, and I was about to stand up and fell to my knees again.

The silver-haired elf standing in the distance saw the badly injured goblin in front of him just about to stand up but fell to his knees, and the sight of this made his eyes full of respect.

"Your Highness, do you want us to take action to solve it?" the ten elves standing beside the silver-haired elves asked at the same time.

"No need. The silver-haired elf glanced at the ten elves beside him and waved his hand.

Bang!

It was the sound of a sword plunging into the ground.

I held the hilt of the Lost Black Talisman with both hands, stuck the tip of the sword firmly into the woodland, and after making sure that the blade of the sword would not loosen, I supported my hands and stood up from the ground with difficulty.

It was as if my lungs had been traumatized by the sword stabbed by the silver-haired elf, and I could only breathe in the cold air as I stood at this time, but every time I took a breath, there was always a stabbing pain coming from my lungs.

"The wound hurts, isn't it? The sword wound stabbed by my [Rotten Forest] cannot be healed without the healing magic unique to the elves. The silver-haired elf walked to the short distance in front of the gob, and said calmly.

(I see...... No wonder the healing magic just now didn't work...... ）

"Give you a choice! Leave your men behind and flee, I won't send anyone after you. The silver-haired elf stretched out the index finger of his right hand and made a nice suggestion to the goblin in front of him.

I was stunned to hear what the silver-haired elf said, and asked me to leave Jot and them out of here alone?

(I...... Do you really want to do this? Leave these warriors who have been with me for a while?)

'Tut, you have to remember one thing. That is to kill the goodness in your heart and become a true warrior commander!'

The words that Captain Xijie had told me rang in my ears again......

"How's it going?" the silver-haired elf asked me symbolically for my reply.

Ignoring the silver-haired elf's question, I reached into my waist pouch with my left hand and took out a small bottle of red potion, uncorked it, and drank it down.

As the potion poured into my mouth, the injuries on my body that had been affected by the magic gradually recovered.

"What else do you want to do? Why do you have to make a strong crossbow stance? Wouldn't it be nice for you to run away alone?!Answer me, Goblin!!"

Seeing the goblin in front of him make such a senseless move just now, the silver-haired elf's expression was suddenly full of anger and asked loudly.

"Shut up! Don't think I'm so bad!!I'm not going to leave behind the !! of my own soldiers."

I picked up the Lost Black Talisman that had been inserted in the woodland, and looked at the silver-haired elf in front of me with an angry face.

The silver-haired elf seemed to be stunned when he heard the goblin's words, and the angry look on his face faded away.

Storage!

As my mind moved, the layers of pale golden sword qi on the sword of the Lost Black Fu held in my right hand gathered again, and an orange-red fireball floated on my palm in my left palm.

"Go!"

The fireball in his left hand was aimed at the sky and shot at a very fast speed, and when the fireball shot into the air, it exploded violently to form a huge fireworks scene.

"You guy!!" Looking at the fireworks-like pattern that appeared in the sky, the silver-haired elf suddenly realized the true purpose of this goblin.

Looking at the goblin silver-haired elf in front of him, his brows furrowed, he knew that a little goblin reinforcement might be coming!

I held my sword in both hands and looked at the silver-haired elves not far in front of me and the ten elves in the distance, and the pale golden light on the Lost Black Talisman had now re-elevated into a brilliant golden light.

"I will do my duty as a warrior captain and will never let any of the goblins present die!"

I looked back at Jot, and then at the silver-haired elf and the others in front of me, and shouted in the direction of the silver-haired elf with the best voice I could!

Hearing the words shouted by the goblin in front of him, the silver-haired elf, who had always had a cold face, was moved this time.

The silver-haired elf took a slow breath and looked at the goblin in front of him, sword in hand, which was completely different from the goblins he had seen so far.

"Can you tell me your name?" asked the silver-haired elf frankly.

"Tut!" I said without hesitation.

After hearing the name of the goblin in front of him, the silver-haired elf showed a very knowing expression.

"I'll tell you my name too, my name is Hoyle!"
