Chapter 632 The Approaching Great Sage (I)
But after this order was passed to the central col, there was an accident.
"The regimental commander is dead."
The magician who received the order said with a calm face:
"We are not under the command of Colonel Tracy, only under the orders of the captain, so please go back and tell the colonel that we will deal with this crisis in our own way, and we don't need to be dictated."
The head of the regiment he was talking about was the slightly frivolous male mage.
Don't look at the frivolous attitude and demeanor that doesn't show the appearance of a noble magic master, but Captain Edwin, nicknamed "Dark Lightning", is also a well-known character in the Imperial Army.
It's just that because he is in the camp, this dark lightning is obviously careless; The spell shield on his body can't stop the Majin's hammer, because it contains a strange demon-breaking power that can destroy any magic defense, including magical enchantments, and can only be blocked by powerful physical attacks.
"You're disobeying!!"
The soldier who gave the order shouted angrily:
"In Colonel Harden's absence, Colonel Tracy is the supreme commander of the entire camp! Your highest rank is lieutenant; Refusal to carry out an order is a blatant disobedience to a military order! β
"It's a pity."
The magician took out a piece of paper from his dark robes:
"Colonel Harden had issued two directives before leaving, one was a secret order, which was only sent to Lord Edwin, and we were completely unaware of it; But another formal command is in my hand, do you want me to read it? β
Seeing the soldier's glaring eyes, he smiled sarcastically and read out the words:
"I have learned a secret piece of information that Colonel Tracy may have colluded with some outsiders to conspire against him; If you notice any movement, you may refuse to carry out all your orders related to the prism......"
"- You bastard!!"
The soldiers who came with them couldn't hold back any longer. All drew their weapons and circled the entrance to the col.
Their hands were full of spears and muskets, and they were so close that once the two sides entered the battle, it was obvious that the elite mage group would suffer.
ββ¦β¦ The prism is the most important weapon of the country, and it is also the last barrier against the legendary things, once it is discovered, there is a possibility of leakage. Immediately seal off the col and allow independent action! β
But as soon as he rushed to the entrance, he was blocked by the sudden rise of the barrier.
The magician holding the official document shook the paper in his hand, bowed slightly to the soldiers who were blocked by the transparent barrier, and said solemnly:
"I have some questions now, can you please find someone to answer my questions?"
He cleared his throat with a serious look on his face:
"Colonel Tracy was missing for five days, and then there was an incident of a giant monster attacking the camp; But today, the camp commander, who had been missing for several days, suddenly appeared. It didn't appear to have been tortured in any way, and his severed arms were healed...... Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on? β
The soldiers, who had already prepared to start breaking the barrier, stopped and stood there staring at each other, no one saying a word.
"Don't you all think it's suspicious?"
The magician folded the brief, put it in his breast pocket, stretched out his arms, and said:
"If you say that a strong female swordsman was attacked by a strong enemy when she went out. She escaped after having her arms broken, so we can only say that she is incompetent. There is no doubt that she is disloyal to the Empire, and she is still the supreme governor of this camp in our hearts. β
"--But now it's the opposite!"
There was a sinister look on his face:
"She went out with her arms broken, but came back a few days later unscathed, and the second combat team has not returned; And soon after she went out, the big guy appeared outside the camp without warning, are you all pig brains? Don't think there's anything wrong with this? β
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
An officer with a cutlass at his waist walked up to the front of the barrier. He seems to be the leader of these soldiers.
I saw the officer press his hand on the hilt of the sword, and said in a deep voice:
"Don't forget who Chief Tracy is, what do you mean...... A high-ranking officer from the Thirteen Nobility is a traitor to the Empire? β
"I didn't say that."
The magician cunningly denied the accusation:
"I'm just raising my own legitimate suspicions, and I don't mean to be disrespectful to the Olma family."
Tracy's full name is Tracy Orma; The Olma family is one of the thirteen nobles of the empire, and this is a family of heroes named by the gods of law. It has a huge influence in the empire second only to the royal family.
While the two sides were at a stalemate, the hill watchmen outside the camp broke another barrier.
This barrier is constructed of wind magic, in addition to defending against attacks, it also has the effect of sound insulation, a dull, thunderous loud sound began to come from everyone's ears after the barrier was destroyed, and it exploded on everyone's heads one by one, making people shudder.
"What are you guys grinding with?"
Seeing the situation here, Tracy ignored the huge rock monster that was already close at hand, and led several guards to the col.
Seeing the confrontation between the two sides, the female colonel was furious, didn't say anything, and directly pulled out the big sword behind her back and slashed at the magic barrier.
The greatsword was a size smaller than the weapon she had used, but it was no worse in quality; Although the barrier could block the attack of the soldiers, it was vulnerable to her, who had already reached a high-level level in the New World, and the blade of the great sword instantly broke through the scope of the barrier and penetrated deeply.
"Tracy, you have to think clearly!"
Those magicians knew the power of this female tyrannosaurus, and the magician who spoke just now showed horror on his face, unconsciously took a step back, and shouted inwardly:
"This is a confidential area, even if you are the camp chief, even if you are the thirteen nobles, you can't trespass in! Otherwiseβ"
"Boom!"
At this time, the great sword had successfully broken the barrier, and the female colonel with murderous intent on her face walked towards them.
"Otherwise what? Dusinger. β
She dragged the blade of her sword to her side, bent her arm slightly forward, stared at the magician, and said:
"I'm the camp chief, and I'm also a descendant of the thirteen nobles...... But you seem to have forgotten something important. β
Tracy slammed her arm and slashed off her opponent's head as everyone watched in shock.
"Goo-Lu-"
The head of the man with a look of disbelief on his face rolled to the ground. The torso that had lost its head spewed out a column of blood and slowly fell backwards.
"I'm still a knight of the royal guard appointed by His Majesty himself!"
Tracy held her greatsword in front of her and reached out and jerked open the placket of her chest, revealing the shirt inside.
On the white patterned women's blouse, a luxurious medal is prominently displayed.
"Before the expedition to the New World, His Majesty Frederick had said it. Everywhere the great Imperial army went, it was all Harlem's territory! β
She sneered and said:
"I am standing on the land of the Empire at this time, and I am also standing on the land of His Majesty! What are you that you dare not let me in, as a royal guard? β
As she said this, her gaze slowly swept towards the others, and all the magicians dodged their gaze to the side, not daring to meet her stern eyes.
"Do you want to stop me with the same thoughts as Dusinger?"
Tracy drew her greatsword again and pointed it at them:
"If yes. Just give it a try. β
"No, we are also soldiers loyal to Your Majesty!"
An older mage screamed:
"It's just that Colonel Harden sternly warned us before he left that the activation of the prism must be ordered by Commander Leo Neill himself! He also showed us a video of the Commander. β
"Where is that image, show it to me."
Tracy thrust her greatsword back into the ground and reached forward.
The mage moved quickly, ran into the col, and returned a moment later with a small ball of image, placing it in her hands.
"Leo Neill...... You old fox. Is the tail finally exposed? β
The female colonel flipped the switch and confirmed that the man in the video was indeed the commander himself. He turned it off and didn't look at its contents.
"Tell everybody a piece of news."
She put away the image ball, folded her hands on the hilt of the great sword, and said to everyone around her:
"Soon, several great sages will be here! We will solve the current troubles one by one. β
She paused slightly, watching the reaction on everyone's faces.
The expressions on everyone's faces were simply wonderful. Some were about to faint with excitement, some didn't seem to believe it, and some had already begun to cheer wildly, throwing their weapons into the air.
- If the thirteen nobles are the heroes in the eyes of the imperial people, then the great sages are the myths in the eyes of the imperial people!
1,000 years after the Magic Calendar. The Dharma God has never appeared before the world; The current Harlem citizens have never really seen them at all, because the appearance of the Dharma God cannot be recorded in any instrument or magic item.
But the Great Sages are different, it can be said that the Thirteen Great Sages are the agents of the Thirteen Dharma Gods in the Faens Continent, most of them are disciples and heirs of the Dharma Gods, and even some of them are the former colleagues and friends of the Dharma Gods!
How could it not be heartening to hear that such a legendary being was coming to the New World and taking action against the enemies who were so much of a headache for them?
"Bad luck."
Xia, who had been nesting next to him and peeping secretly, was shocked and retracted his head:
"Under normal circumstances, wouldn't the Council of Sages of this kind of war not interfere?"
She thought to her heart with horror:
"Could it be that the previous Treaty of the Strong is different from the current Faense Continent?"
While she was terrified by the news, Tracy over there had taken complete control of the scene.
"Send some of our men and get inside!"
The female colonel asked the officers with scimitars to tie up the magicians who refused to carry out the order one by one, put on the forbidden chains, and turned to the guards behind her and said:
"Especially around the prism, it is important to replace it with reliable soldiers to prevent someone from doing it behind in a critical moment."
"Yes!"
The guard saluted and sped in the direction of the mobile team.
There were magical guards attached to the camp, both nominally and in fact belonging to Tracy's subordinates, some of whom had been with her for more than two years, and were undoubtedly the best candidates in the current situation.
"The formation was disrupted, and the three of them were randomly divided into a group."
Even so. Tracy still took the safest measure: "Let them keep an eye on each other, and report any unusual behavior as soon as they find it!" It's not impossible to just take a shot depending on the situation. β
She snorted inside her nose, looked into the distance and said:
"Don't think you're the only one going to do this, Harden...... I don't know why you hid outside and didn't come back, but it gave me the chance to take control of this place. β
"This woman doesn't seem to be quite the same as I've seen before."
Xia finally regained his composure and saw this scene. It was discovered that the female colonel had a lot of ambition in her bones.
Although Tracy is still a blank slate when it comes to men, she already has a lot of thoughts full of profit in her heart, which makes her a little disliked.
Especially the scene of waving his sword and cutting off his head without hesitation just now proves that this is actually a decisive soldier, not a delicate and weak woman.
"Let's get out of here."
The silver-haired girl sneaked out of her hiding place and sneaked back outside the camp.
There are no dead ends in the patrol in the barracks, and because she has been broken through by strong enemies twice, she has not recovered her original strength, and she will definitely be discovered if she stays in one place for a long time.
"Erin will probably be back for a long time. But Xueqian is not necessarily. β
Xia pondered his plan with the lich, and felt that although there were some dangers, it was feasible, so he didn't think much about it, sneaked to a secluded place, and quietly spread his wings and flew towards the hiding place of the people.
β¦β¦
At the same time, on the vast sea.
A large, dilapidated wooden ship floated in the water, moving forward at a speed disproportionate to its appearance.
"Sheila. Your ship is really interesting. β
In the cabin, where all kinds of sparkling magic ornaments are hung, an old woman with a crystal ball in her hand sits on a bench. Squinting his eyes, he said:
"The exterior of the ghost ship, the luxurious interior...... And some of them paddling with tireless bones to help you, are you going to be the master of the Sea of the Undead? β
"How could she mess with that troublesome guy."
A young-looking man held a book in his hand, leaned back in his chair and smiled:
"When the Mentor was still in Faenns, he might have been able to easily subdue that sea monster, but now it's just our words. I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort, and in the end all I get may be some scrap metal. β
"Hehe...... That's right, as the overlord of the deep sea, it will definitely not be willing to be our servant, at most it will only sign a short-term allegiance contract. What's the use of that for us? β
A man wrapped in a black robe said hoarsely.
"Keith, you have a knack for enslaving the strong, why don't you give it a try?"
As soon as the old woman finished speaking, the crystal ball suspended in the palm of her hand suddenly reacted a little.
It glows purplish-red, the color of the alarm.
"Oh? Something seems to be coming. β
Her wrinkled face was huddled:
"Purple and red...... There is still a hint of green in the middle, which means that there is a powerful being who has come into contact with an unknown force and is approaching us, could it be those false gods on the continent? They know we're here. β
"It's not a secret that we're going to sea, but the native gods shouldn't care, unless they're like you and can predict what the future holds."
The young man closed the book and said, carrying it in his hand with a metal chain; It seems that he loves this worn-out magic book and has to carry it with him at all times:
"It's more likely that the Fallen have leaked this to the demons, at least in the New World for now, and they are the only ones who hate us the most."
"Even after many years, the glory of the Dharma God remains, and those demons just haven't forgotten the pain of shame."
The black-robed man laughed in an ugly voice:
"Morphith, what you just said is too much for me, my research on this little thing has only just begun, and there is currently a lack of effective test subjects......"
"Stop, Case, I don't want to hear you describe that disgusting experiment."
The man sitting in the throne turned his chair around.
This is an elderly woman who is blind in one eye, her right eye is tightly closed, and her left eye shines like a brilliant jewel, and judging by the contours of her eyebrows and face, she should have been quite a beautiful woman in her youth.
I saw her pick up the blindfold placed on the table and put it on, and then a flash of lightning flashed in her hand, hitting a small dark ball in the hand of the black-robed man.
"Sheila, don't treat your old friend so roughly, you used to be so gentle and cute......"
The black-robed man retracted his hand helplessly, and the small ball was tucked into his sleeve; The electric light, which had lost its target, turned around in the air and flew back into the one-eyed woman's hands.
"No, no, Case, what are you talking about? Miss Sheila is still gentle and beautiful. β
The young man next to him hurriedly diverted the topic:
"Let's talk about the approaching enemy...... Morphith, what do you mean by the unknown power? Is there anything else in this world that we don't know? β
"You're too conceited."
The old woman frowned and said:
"The future can be predicted, but it is difficult to fathom; The law that can be perceived, but can never reach out and touch...... This kind of thing should exist in the other person's body. β
"βand I have to make a point."
She placed the crystal ball on top of the table and let it hang there:
"Although the other party is a pseudo-god, her strength is not much worse than any of us, and we lack the means to balance her."
The old woman pointed her sharp nails at the delicate face:
"See those angry flames on her? This is supposed to be a god incarnated by the innate fire element, and Tambell, who is the best at manipulating the elements among us, didn't follow, otherwise it would have been easier to deal with her. β
"Let's keep our spirits to deal with the old caretakers, I don't want to do anything to beautiful women."
The young man put his hand on his chest, and his face was full of unbearable:
"If it weren't for the fact that I'm immersed in the magic of magic right now, I would have fallen in love with her the first time I saw her."
"What's the use of you falling in love with her?"
The door to the cabin was suddenly pushed open by a stout hand.
A bald man walked into the room through the door, sat on an empty chair, and shook his head from side to side twice, and the bones in his neck could be heard clicking:
"Stop dreaming, you little white face who has been immersed in the study of magic all day; Your stuff will be burned to char before it touches someone's body, do you still want a flame to give you a baby? Hahaha......"
As soon as the man entered, both women present frowned.
"Clark, you rude fellow, don't forget the ladies are here."
The young man moved his chair a little farther away in disgust:
"I don't approach those lovely girls for the sake of that kind of dirty thoughts, I just want to praise the sparkle that emanates from them!"
"Come on, you hypocritical bastard."
The man named Clark stretched out on a chair, straightened up, and touched his bare head with his hand.
Then he looked at the red-haired goddess in the crystal ball, and a flash of greed flashed in his eyes.
"The body and clothes made of flames...... Tsk, it's hard enough to think about it. β
He licked his lips and leaned back again:
"It's a pity I don't have the skills to deal with it, grandma, and now I'm a little envious of that kid from Tambell, if I can manipulate the elements to his level, I can try to get this flame goddess."
"I'd advise a few of us not to mess with her."
The old woman Murphys looked at the crystal ball with a solemn face:
"I was a little frightened by the unknown power she exuded...... Moreover, the native gods of the New World are not at war with us, and it is never a good idea to move these false gods without permission. (To be continued.) )
