"Click!"

The greatsword collided with a curved blade, making an unpleasant sound.

"Is that what it takes? Guardian Knight of the Order! ”

The man with the giant sword was full of white light, gritted his teeth and said, constantly pressing the blade of the sword in his hand to the opposite side.

"Cremont, if it weren't for my broken whip, you wouldn't have been able to get close to me."

The weapon in Klein's hand was very strangely shaped, it looked like an elongated pistol, but the barrel turned into a sharp blade, about a meter long, and it was not at all inferior in the confrontation with the greatsword.

"yes, why do I think you'll be more vulnerable with that weak weapon?"

"Let's win this sword in my hand first."

"Giggles-" Countless sparks burst out between the two swords, squeezing back and forth without giving in to each other, and no one could help anyone.

Finally, the two shouted at the same time and separated from the air.

By this time the people in the vicinity had long since disappeared, and the soldiers were so frightened that they did not know where to hide, and the merchants took the opportunity to flee the lake in their carriages, leaving only the hapless captain of the guard lying on the ground with a blur of flesh and blood, apparently dead for a long time.

At the feet of the two of them, the once flat earth had been turned into a potholed basin, the stalls and buildings were reduced to ruins, and the trees by the lake had all fallen to the ground, and the eyes were full of wolves.

"You strangers, you don't cherish the land of the kingdom at all."

The man with the giant sword looked down and said:

"This lake is a famous landscape in the Dalton area, those adventurers come and go, and they bring a lot of tax revenue every year, and now that they are all ruined by you, I will definitely go to Archbishop Fain to theorize."

"Don't forget, you're also half the credit for this."

Klein snorted:

"Taxes? Don't think I don't know. In addition to the bandit groups in the vicinity, your guards are also some vicious dogs that can't be fed, and the faithful of the Divine Court disappear here every year. I'm afraid that more than half of that money and human lives are fed to dogs. ”

"You can't say that."

The man coughed dryly and put away his greatsword.

Then it fell from the air to the ground. Said to Klein:

"Let's not talk about anyone......"

He glanced at the corpse on the ground:

"This guy is dead, anyway, it can't be counted on my head, let's think about where your little silver-haired lover is, although she may appear here after receiving a tip, but I don't even see a hair."

Klein looked at him coldly, put away the spear and sword, and flew back and forth in the air at an extremely slow speed, with a smile in his cold eyes:

"There's nothing wrong with the tip. She's been here before. ”

“…… I've been thinking, is your nose a dog nose? ”

The man watched him fly from the air to the edge of the forest, and reluctantly followed him.

Arriving behind a tree, Klein suddenly frowned:

"No, this is where she came, and the smell is cut off here."

He looked at the wide lake beside him:

"Did she go out of the water? There should be some traces of that, too, but there's nothing here. ”

"Big ...... My lord. ”

A guard stood tremblingly in the distance and shouted:

"We got word before we came here that someone was fighting a large-scale battle over there, I wonder if you would go and take a look?"

"Oh? Check it out. ”

The man took the greatsword off his back again, and white light erupted from his body. Fly in the direction where the guards pointed.

"Large-scale combat ......"

Klein touched his smooth chin with a thoughtful look on his face.

He thought of the terrifying sword in the underground passage:

Could it be her?

Could it be that she used some method to hide the aura on her body...... No, I'll have to take a look. ”

Klein followed the man and flew to the forest on the other side. When he got there, he was a little surprised by what he saw.

"Klein, come here."

The man said as he crouched on the ground.

"Don't order me."

Klein said coldly, flying through the air.

"Look, this pit is not simple, the ground seems to have been blasted open by a special attack."

The man stood up from the ground, his brow furrowed:

"Although I don't know who did it, the other party should have used a kind of strength similar to a furious roar, and he was able to do this. Not many on the mainland. ”

He turned to look at Klein:

"The strength of this man...... I'm afraid not under you and me. ”

"I thought you were here to make up the numbers."

Klein looked at the big pit, and his face also showed a trace of solemnity:

"Now it seems. It makes sense for the kingdom to send you, the Soul Hunter Sword Saint, here. ”

He himself is also the type who is good at tracking and searching, and it quickly became clear that the person who created this pit was not simple.

"There's another person here. It seems that there was a fierce battle with him. ”

The Soul Splitting Sword Master drew a circle on the ground with the tip of his sword, encircling two footprints:

"The shoes are the standard boots common to mercenaries, I don't know if it's a man or a woman."

"It's supposed to be a woman."

Klein picked up a long black hair from the ground and sniffed it on it, with an intoxicated look on his face:

"It tastes really good...... And there is a dark aura in it, could it be a demon? It was an unexpected surprise. ”

He put the long black hair close to his body:

"It seems that your kingdom needs a thorough rectification of Dalton, that baron in Canning City is a latent demon, and there is a female demon here, obviously not weak."

He looked at the scene around him that was not inferior to the scene after their battle just now, and his words showed a tone of schadenfreude:

"Even if I don't ask you to conduct an investigation, I'm afraid the empire won't let you go, after all, the demon is the public enemy of all countries on the continent, and this matter is not something you can cover up."

"Whatever you want."

The Soul Hunter Juggernaut made a gesture of indifference.

"Ha, I almost forgot that people like you don't have much concept of a country at all...... It's a pity that you don't feel the will of piety at all. Otherwise, I might mention that the Pope would take an extra knight of the Protector. ”

"Knight of the Protector?"

The Juggernaut's expression seemed to be a little moved.

"What a sound."

Klein looked up into the air.

"Your ears and nose are really smart."

After a while, the Soul Hunter Sword Saint heard a roar in the air, and he floated up from the ground. I looked at it from afar for a while:

"It's an airship, a combat model of the II rank. It was supposed to be from the Pampol Fortress. ”

He fell from the sky:

"There seems to have been some chaos in the fortress some time ago, and there was a lot of trouble, and now many people are chasing down the criminals."

"Yes."

Klein's eyes flickered:

"The prisoner ......"

"No, you're thinking too much."

Juggernaut shook his head and said:

"The suspect is said to be a man with short white hair, not the girl you're looking for."

At this time, the airship had already flown above the heads of the two of them, and then slowed down in the air.

"Whoosh-"

A tiny black dot fell from above and stopped about a hundred meters away from the two of them, as if looking down on this side.

By this time the sun had set. I couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly, and the black dot seemed to be carrying something in his hand.

"Who? So rude. ”

Klein looked at the man who had stopped above the two of them and said unhappily.

"Ha, it should be that guy from Gna, he is a famous alchemist in the kingdom, and at the same time he has the name of the royal magic guard, so the shelf is a little bigger."

The Soul Hunter Sword Saint smiled dryly, as if he was helpless against the other party.

"Wait."

Klein's voice suddenly sank:

"What does that prisoner look like?"

"Look? Short white hair, looking very young, with a shallow scar on the right side of his face......"

The Soul Hunter Swordmaster was a little strange about his question. Answer:

"Do you want to be in this business? It's not like your style. ”

"Peng!!"

Something fell from the black spot's hand and fell not far from the two of them.

"Ahh Leg! I have a broken leg ......"

The thing that fell to the ground let out a pig-killing cry.

"Gna?"

Juggernaut was taken aback.

At this moment, the black dot in the air slowly landed on the ground, and then a dull sound came from the ears of the two of them.

"Tuk. Tuk, tuk ......"

It was like a wooden stick tapping rhythmically on the ground, and it wasn't long before a young man on crutches appeared in front of Juggernaut and Klein.

"I just heard something interesting up there."

The young man with the white hair laughed:

"You seem to be looking for me?"

His lifeless eyes stared at the two of them, and there was a chilling look in his gaze:

"Exactly...... I'm looking for you too. ”

……

"Hey, what's going on?"

Xia lay on the top of a high mountain and looked at the fortress below that was as strong as an iron bucket:

"I remember the last time I was here, there was no martial law here, how did it become like this now."

Her eyes were good, looking at the guards at the door with stern faces. There are also the gates of the fortress that are confined and retract their heads from the outside. I was a little worried.

"Something must have happened, master."

Stephanie said, looking at the flickering towers.

"Can you get around it? I remember that the mountains on either side were not very high. The security above is also not very strong. ”

Xia got up from the ground and hit the dirt on his body:

"Or we can fly over from a high altitude, the warning range of the magic tower should not exceed five kilometers, and I can still support this height."

"No, master."

The little Lori in black shook her head and said:

"Although the alert height of those magic towers is limited, there are still thin enchantments in the undetectable areas above, master, your physique is not so much 'elimination' as 'destruction' for the enchantment, if you insist on breaking through, you will definitely be discovered."

"What about going around from both sides?"

Xia said a little unwillingly.

"You need to look at the map to confirm this...... I'm going inside to gather information, and the map hasn't been updated in a long time. ”

Stephanie flew towards the fortress.

Xia sat on the mountain and ate something, and about half an hour later, the little Lori in black flew back, her face was a little ugly.

"Master, this is the latest map of the neighborhood."

She opened the map bar and placed it in front of Natsu:

"Master, if you don't go from here, you'll have to pass through the black area."

A large area of shocking black appeared in front of Xia's eyes, only the vicinity of the fortress showed a light yellow, but those locations were all places with huge enchantments, and in this case, there must be strong people around, and if you insist on breaking through, you will definitely be noticed.

"We should have been here a year ago, and I remember when there wasn't so much black on the map, how did it get so fast?"

She fell backwards to the ground, lying there helpless.

"Isn't that a common occurrence, master?"

The little Lori in black took the opportunity to lie on her stomach like a cat:

"The living area of human beings is often eroded by monsters and some unknown factors, and it has recently reached that special period...... Woo! ”

Xia lifted the neck of the little Lori in black, ignored her pitiful eyes, and took her off her body:

"In that case, then I can only go here in a dignified manner, the old witch's treehouse and Zekelia are on the other side, anyway, I don't want to go out of the black area again." (To be continued) R466
