Chapter 770 Beyond the fog, above the sky
"Hey, where's Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
Merlin, who was moving forward in fear, suddenly noticed that Natsu was gone.
"The wolf god has also disappeared, maybe he went somewhere else." Abner touched his helmet and said:
"The two of them should be able to move freely through this mist, unlike us."
He guessed correctly, Xia and the werewolf princess had just entered the mist and were teleported to the location of the dark green crystal.
"No wonder Mireyer said we were safe here...... It turns out that as long as you get permission, the area with green mist can be transferred in an instant! ”
Xia marveled at this miraculous means:
"You can manipulate the space freely...... Originally, I thought that Otevia was just a little bigger, with a thicker skin; Now it seems that it really deserves to be the strongest existence, even if it has been dead for thousands of years, it only has this effect with just one eyeball. ”
As the King of the Giants and the master of the City of the Stars, it is no exaggeration to say that Ortvia is the strongest of the gods as it controls the source of its magical power, and that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the strongest.
If it weren't for the two Divine Fragments that Frestia possessed, each with its own magical powers, it would have been able to resist all the enemy's attacks and then defeat them one by one; It can be said that the defeat of the King of Giants and the decline of the Giants are entirely due to the will of the high god behind him.
"Quick, Deria, help me monitor the situation outside."
Natsu urged the werewolf princess and scratched her big tail:
"Let's see who's following us."
"Yikes! I hate it. ”
The werewolf princess's tail has always been surrounded by a blue arc, but this thing is not of high quality, and it has no effect on Xia at all, plus Xia's strength is too strong now, so she will be caught every time.
"But...... I won't watch it, will I? ”
Delia held back the tingling sensation and hid her tail:
"How do you monitor what's going on outside? This thing doesn't seem to have this kind of function. ”
"This thing is originally the eyes of the king of giants, how can it not see the outside."
Xia Shang touched and patted again, tinkered several times, turned his head and said to her:
"You think to yourself, 'Let me see the outside of the fog,' and you should be fine."
"Wow, it really can!"
The werewolf princess tried to think about what she said, and sure enough, a clear figure appeared on the crystal in front of them.
"Atodoron, the hundred-eyed giant, Mireyer with the pupil of insight...... The Divine Giants I've met so far seem to be some types with special visual bonuses, and it can be inferred that Otvia, who is the king, is at least not far behind in this regard. ”
Xia breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that she had guessed correctly, this thing could indeed see through the green mist and see the scenery in the distance.
"Huh? There really are people there. ”
She looked closely at the place where the team had just entered, and noticed that a figure had appeared there.
"This person is hiding inside some kind of space prop......"
She looked at the vague fluctuations shrouded in the figure and thought:
"Space magic is taboo for ordinary people, and it is also advanced knowledge that cannot be mastered; Only a strong person like the Lich who has considerable attainments in ancient magic and has broken through the boundaries can reach the threshold, and this person doesn't seem to be that powerful, so it must have been sent by some big force to trouble me. ”
In fact, she thought too much, and this encounter was just an extremely accidental coincidence.
The other party did send someone to spy on her, the man who had already been killed; But this time, Varant, the High Priest of Light, came here because of something else.
"It's a pity that I can only see and not hear this person's voice."
Xia carefully observed the figure's blurred mouth and could tell who the person was talking to.
She had also learned some lip reading, but this person had obviously undergone rigorous training, and spiritual transmission was not something that everyone could learn, and this person would not be able to; But when he spoke, he basically relied on his tongue, and his mouth only trembled slightly, and he made a sound, and he couldn't tell what he was saying at all.
"Someone else has appeared!"
The werewolf princess rarely saw this kind of surveillance image, and curiously lay on it and watched, blocking Natsu's sight.
"Stand back a bit, Deria."
Xia dragged her back a little embarrassed, such an audience would definitely be scolded if they were somewhere else.
"Huh? Let me see it for a moment. ”
The werewolf princess reluctantly left the crystal.
"Come to me." Natsu pulled her to her side and touched her furry ears, when a woman appeared on top of the crystal, surrounded by white light, looking a little short, and her body seemed to be muscular, unlike any woman she had seen before.
"That's the Light!"
Natsu recognized the light peculiar to the high-ranking figures of the Order:
"And it's top-notch...... Could this man be Varant? ”
She didn't know that she was blindfolded, but she saw that this short woman who couldn't see her face clearly gave some order, and the figure bowed, and then crashed towards the green mist without hesitation!
"Hung up ......"
Xia watched as the man didn't even have time to scream, he was annihilated in the mist, and the space props wrapped outside his body did not play any role.
"How is this possible?!"
Valente was also surprised at this time, looking at the empty front in a daze.
She, Keith, and the others had actually attacked this place more than once, and they had never seen a mist that could ignore spatial props and hurt the people inside.
Could it be that something is wrong with your spells?
Or is the fog getting stronger again?
"It should be the latter."
Her heart sank, her eyes flickered for a moment, the holy light on her body slowly faded, and she walked towards the green mist.
"Click!"
Seeing that the magic spell cast was resisted for a moment and then vanished, she gritted her teeth and stomped her foot there:
"That damn giantess must have used the remaining power of the Eye of Otvia!"
"Hadn't she always cared about the reserve of divine power before? Even if he fights us, he tries to use his own strength; Why is it so generous this time...... Without the support of the source of magical power, no matter how abundant this crystallized energy is, it will always run out, and she can't be unaware of this. ”
"Oh? What an accident within an accident. ”
At the moment when she lost the shroud of holy light and performed her magic spell, Xia asked the werewolf princess to adjust the angle of the picture and see the true face of this high-ranking person of the Order.
"It's an acquaintance again."
She stared at the two purple pupils and whispered:
"Harwa...... Thousands of years ago, he was obviously a fallen demon, but now he has become a big man in Truis, I have to say that this is an ironic thing. ”
Varant, whose face had always maintained a purple-eyed loli state, looked around, and then tried several attacks in various ways, and finally gave up, took out a magic crystal and began to call.
"Keith!"
Natsu's body suddenly tensed.
Because she saw a familiar black-robed man appear in her field of vision.
At this time, Keith had lost the black eyeball in his sleeve, and it seemed that he had not found a new one for the time being, so he only looked like an ordinary dark mage, without the weird appearance he had before.
"Who is this man?"
The werewolf princess lay on top of the crystal again:
"It looks like it's hard to mess with."
Even if it was a virtual picture, she also realized that the other party was not simple.
"Yes, that's one of our formidable enemies...... He's probably the toughest guy of the three. ”
Natsu observed Keith's reaction with a solemn expression.
She wanted to make sure if the Eye of Ortvia's surveillance would be noticed.
"Varant, did you summon me for such a trivial matter?"
Keith rarely revealed an unhappy tone:
"My cute BD 2 has been out of touch with me for a long time, and I'll have to find a way to make another one, and now is not the time to play with Miss Giant hiding inside a turtle shell."
"This is no small matter, Lord Keith."
Valente seemed to be extremely jealous of him, so he kept his words respectful:
"If you look closely, how is this fog different from before?"
Keith didn't speak, he probably knew that the other party was not a person who was talking nonsense, so he slowly walked to the edge of the green mist and put his hand inside.
"Wait!!"
Varant was shocked and tried to stop him.
"Sneer......"
As if some kind of intense corrosion had been severed on his hand, only the remnants of the bones remained, and then the bones turned into green drips and fell to the ground, burning small holes there.
"It seems to be a lot better."
He retracted his bare wrist:
"This is the supreme divine power...... We had to burn the Origin to be able to fight for a short time, and if she didn't come out of it, she would have almost lost the possibility of getting the second Otvia Eye. ”
"Do you want to start a third plan?"
Varant asked:
"We can have people go deep into the ground, find out how deep the green mist is penetrating, and then find a way to dig out the whole area and move it to another place."
"It's going to be a very long time...... For our program. ”
Keith's displeasure seemed to have dissipated, and he reverted to his usual tone:
"This thing can resist the power of crystallization for so long, and it is an extremely rare alchemy material in itself, but because it is too difficult to develop, Albert and I have no idea of fighting it."
"And the danger of the giantess cannot be ignored...... I can't guarantee that once she provokes the other party, she will use any irritable means to retaliate against us. Don't forget, she was planning to detonate the source of her magic and bury most of us with her; This kind of guy who is not even afraid of death is the best not to anger her. ”
"Lord Case, what do you think these people are in there for? There's no food around here. ”
Valente gave up on his plans and asked him:
"Do they want to go to the area behind the sea of fog? It is an unknown treasure that no one has ever set foot on for pioneers, and it is full of temptation~confusion. ”
"Hah, shall we go and have a look?"
Keys's body slowly floated into the air, flying towards the top of the mist.
"But there is ...... in the air"
Varant hesitated, but slowly flew up after him.
"Deria, let the surveillance footage follow them."
Summer's mood suddenly fell to the bottom:
Her plan was to enter the new area first, avoiding the development of everyone's eyes and ears, which was a very important link, but now this plan was about to be aborted.
"Deria, can you expand the scope of the fog?"
Seeing the two of them flying higher and higher, she gritted her teeth and said:
"Thin out the covered space, then stretch the width and height of the mist, even if it ends up as a thin barrier; Anyway, you have to find a way to stop them from coming from the sky! ”
"I guess so."
The werewolf princess replied uncertainly.
She crouched down and cocked her tail, began to touch the crystal, and finally jumped up happily:
"It's okay!"
At this time, Keith in the air noticed an anomaly:
"How did this fog suddenly become so much smoother?"
He looked up into the air, and saw that the edges of the green mist had become a pyramid structure, with a triangular shape on the sides, all the way to the very high ground.
"Looks like the people inside want to stop us from getting through here."
He smiled lowly:
"But that's just going to delay for a while......"
"Sir Keith, have you forgotten? The sky is a forbidden place for the strong! ”
Valente looked a little distraught, and opened her mouth to remind:
"I know you're strong, but—"
She wanted to say something, but at the moment of inhalation, her face suddenly changed, and she stopped the upward trend.
I don't know when, a scorching smell gradually appeared around the two of them.
What followed was an extremely fine, slight popping sound that would immediately be associated with the famous static effect if Natsu was here.
"Crackle, crackle."
Electric sparks began to flicker around them, and the air behind them blurred, as if something wanted to break through the barrier of space and rush out of it.
"-Get out of here!!"
Varant exclaimed, her voice filled with fear.
As soon as her words fell, the sky suddenly cracked.
A large, incomparable blue figure slammed out from behind with lightning bolts, opening its mouth with a thunderous noise, swallowing Keith flying in front of it.
"Lord Keith!"
Valente was fast, escaping a considerable distance in a short time, and by the time she looked back, Keith had been bitten inside by the giant mouth.
However, this great sage of antiquity is far from comparable.
Although he didn't have the means to teleport in battle, he immediately unleashed a huge magic array several meters high, and this purple magic circle was desperately defended in front of him to prevent the terrifying mouth from closing.
"Mel Haslan - Overlord of the Sky!"
The lips of the High Priest of Light trembled.
Then she didn't care about the life or death of Keith's ally, and directly activated the holy power and fled to the ground as fast as she could.
"Isn't this the 3S whale?"
Xia was also shocked when he saw this scene:
"How did it come here without warning? Could this thing also be able to travel through space? ”
"-No, it's not."
After all, she stayed in a safe area, and immediately calmed down: "If you think about it carefully, many monsters in the underground ruins of the New World can suddenly appear through the teleportation array, and this powerful boss should also follow some kind of rules and can move freely in the sky." ”
"It's just that there should still be some restrictions on this kind of movement...... Otherwise, when we encountered it in the temple, it would not have rushed towards us, but would have appeared directly at the edge of the temple and swallowed everyone in one gulp! ”
"What the hell is this guy? Wendy said that its body composition is peculiar, and it should not be a creature of this world; But unlike spirits in arcane space, they don't come from hell or anywhere else. ”
When she was thinking about the origin of the flying blue whale, the magic array in front of Keith was shining, and it seemed that the whale boss had increased the bite force, so he had to increase the magic output.
But this stalemate was quickly broken, and the blue whale found that it could not swallow the other party for a while, so it directly resorted to the most violent means - slammed forward with its huge body!
This terrifying force even the ancient mages could not resist, and the hem of the black robe worn by Keith was torn by the powerful impact, and the purple circle blocking him also shrank a lot, and this was the first time Xia had seen him injured.
You must know that at all times before, Keith was a perfect and mysterious image, and even his clothes were not torn! This time, however, he looked a little embarrassed, and it seemed that this whale was also a strong opponent for him.
"Mireyer mentioned that Keith is good at enchantments and the application of all kinds of magic, and he should belong to the pinnacle of combat mages, and his methods are many times better than those current academic mages."
Xia didn't care about the safety of the other party, but remembered other things:
"So...... Can I learn something from him? (To be continued.) )
