Chapter 415 Xia's Decision
(Viral flu, high fever for 2 days in a row, I can't hold it anymore...... Went to the hospital today for an injection. Feiyang is a full-time author, and as long as he can still move, he won't break the update! However, the update time and word count in the past few days may be a little pitted, which is also a matter of no choice; I hope you will be considerate of us and bow here. )
"It's my enemy! Not only did it hinder the progress of the main quest, but it also tried to kill me several times. ”
Touching the place that had once been pierced by the dark golden light, she could still recall the terrible feeling.
"And it has also mutilated countless innocent people...... By any measure, I should have wiped it out. ”
Natsu looked up and saw that the notch in his helmet was gradually healing.
The black mist that permeated the outward seemed to be alive, and when the swords were drawn, they began to rush into the armor at an unbelievable speed, and the knight who had been frozen on the ground also shook again.
"Partner, quick!"
The lich also raised his hand bone, which flashed with golden light, and a piercing attack hit the upper part of the helmet, and the hidden dark core inside was pierced by the golden light, and the speed of contraction was noticeably slower.
"But ......"
The silver-haired girl was still hesitating.
The tragic scene she saw in her dream is still vivid, and the sword in her hand could not pierce such a great knight who was unswerving in love to the death and extremely loyal in faith.
"Don't forget what I said to you!"
For the first time, the lich said to her in a stern tone:
"Excessive sympathy and pity is your biggest problem at the moment, and you will regret it sooner or later."
"I see."
Xia Yi gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.
She lifted her sword and was about to plunge it into her helmet, but was blocked by a warm light.
The priestess's soul appeared in the direction the blade was pointing, and her chest was positioned exactly at the tip of the sword.
The silver-haired girl's movements stopped for a moment.
"Edian. Why. ”
She looked at the priestess with a blurred face and asked:
"Do you know how many people it killed? And every day he immerses himself in the curse of revenge and can't extricate himself...... This in itself is a very sad thing. ”
She raised her sword flat again:
"Let it go...... For you, and for itself. ”
The golden soul shook its head slightly, still standing in front of her with its arms outstretched. There was no intention of getting out of the way.
"Tom!!"
The lich's divine attack pierced the knight's helmet once more, and the dark core contracted more and more slowly. It's about to stop.
Xia's face was blue and white for a while, and there was hesitation in his eyes, revealing resoluteness for a while, and pity for a while; Then she let out a long sigh and put down the sword in her hand.
Seeing her move, the priestess's soul floated back and hugged the knight's neck tightly, shielding it from the lich's attack.
"Fernanxi Stream. It shouldn't be able to regain its vitality for a long time. ”
She said to the lich in a consultative tone:
"And we're almost there...... When the time comes, just destroy all the teleportation arrays and imprison them in the path of the end, after all, after this mission is completed, we will probably not come to this place again. ”
"If that's your decision."
The lich glanced at the spirit on the knight's back and withdrew his hand.
"Thank you."
The silver-haired girl took a breath and handed the somewhat dim sword to the black-clothed little Lori and asked her to put it away.
If nothing else, the sword can be used once.
Under what circumstances it will be used again, only God knows.
Glancing back at the knight who was still recovering, Natsu and his teammates left the range of the Dark Curse. Meet Natya Vida, who has been hiding on the edge of the plains.
"You ...... Win? ”
The half-elf girl hurriedly greeted her, looked at the black mist in the distance and said.
Although her willpower is not weak, her realm is really poor. All elemental spells couldn't be used, so he didn't dare to approach the knight at all.
"We could have won, but our captain relented."
The lich said aside:
"With just one final blow, we could erase the Black Calamity from the world forever, but a beautiful female soul stood in its way......"
"Hey, Fernanxi! What are you talking about this? ”
Xia Qi sent a sound to it in a hurry.
It's good to tell the truth directly, but if you have to use this kind of statement that is easy to misunderstand, is this revenge for the decision you just made?
"Huh? Can you tell me what's going on? ”
Sure enough, Natyavida's gaze froze.
"Oops!"
Someone's ears were pulled up.
"You're getting more and more talkative. If it were an ordinary person, it would be fine, and now even the ghost will not be spared......"
The half-elf girl angrily whispered to her. Then he grabbed the ear and pulled her into a corner.
After a period of painful and sweet torture, Xia Cai, who desperately explained the reason, was released.
"You say the Black Calamity deserves sympathy? What really happened 2,000 years ago? ”
Return to the crowd. Natia Vida asked curiously, reaching out to help her rub her reddened ears.
"It was a tragic story of the fall of the Eternal Kingdom......"
Natsu uses her not-so-brilliant description to tell everyone what she saw in her dreams.
After hearing the story of the knight and the priestess, everyone fell silent.
"I always think it's a terrible ...... Good sad story again. ”
The half-elf girl sighed and said:
"The Eternal Kingdom...... Could it be that the last time I discovered the ruins of the Pupil of the Hanhai Sea, it was the legendary City of Water? ”
She asked Sadonan for the blue gem that had been washed, and held it in the palm of her hand and looked at it for a long time, as if she wanted to get a glimpse of the traces of the past.
"In the eyes of Truis, this single stone was worthless, and the Holy Lady Helen might be punished for bringing it back, so she threw it there."
Natya Vida guessed:
Or maybe she used it as a decoy...... He tried to lure the person who had taken the other 11 sacred stones to look for it, but the person never appeared, and the treasure was forgotten in the dead city. ”
"Nana, where did you find that city?"
Natsu asked, holding her hand.
"Forest of Rain."
The half-elf girl uttered a name.
"The famous black area of the mainland...... Legend has it that it rains all the time, and that people will quietly disappear in the rain in the terrible forest. ”
Xia thought of Uncle Blackknife's description of the forest.
"Hey, it's been raining, people are missing in the rain......"
She recalled the dense jungle that the knight had walked into at the end of the dream, and she always felt that the scene had many similarities with this description. (To be continued) R466
