Volume 1: Walking on the Brink of Destruction and Salvation Chapter 34: The Holy Relic
Sure enough, he is the supreme combat power of the Church.
Huangfu Jue once again put on a posture as if he were facing a great enemy.
If the opponent specializes in the art of sneak attack and assassination, then the head-to-head battle will definitely give you the upper hand.
But the black sword didn't look good.
Huang Fu Jue could feel a rolling invisible torrent centered on this pitch-black sword, radiating towards the surroundings, pressing on his heart like a boulder.
It was definitely a murder weapon, and the air around it seemed to be afraid of this sword, and it was churning up and down.
In this way, the rope that controls the Pope was also cut by this sword.
To be able to hide again in such a short period of time before he arrived is not unintelligent.
Huang Fu Jue stared at Dai Forgetfulness's movements, afraid that he would disappear in front of him in the next blink of an eye.
Dai Wangjue said to the Pope: "Your Excellency the Pope will go first, after the lower hall!"
Although each of the four golden-veined apologists has lost a right arm, their left arm can still wield a sword, and joining the battle outside is also a big impact, enough to smoothly take the Pope away.
Huang Fujue, who knew the seriousness of the consequences, decided to take the initiative to attack Dai Wangjue.
The distance between the two quickly shortened, and soon they entered each other's attack range, and Huang Fu Jue fell with a heavy slash, and was easily bounced away by the opponent's sword.
Huang Fu Jue, who originally wanted to add an additional attack, was frightened by this sword and quickly retreated to open up the distance.
The force of the backlash he had just received made it clear that the opponent's strength was above him, and his arms trembled slightly from the hard shock.
However, the most surprising thing for Huang Fu Jue was that there was a gap left in his sword.
Just one defense can destroy the enemy's weapon, and if you change to defend yourself, you will definitely not be able to stop the edge of the black sword.
Dai Wangjue returned to his usual posture and said to Huangfu Jue, "I originally planned to come to the imperial capital to have a duel with you and defeat the legend of Begret like Brans. ”
He stroked the blade of the black sword: "But you also see that the Pope's order cannot be violated, this sword is assigned to me to use, and I must fight with it." ”
Huang Fu Jue roared in a low voice: "Do you want to say that it is easy to defeat me now!"
"No, I didn't mean that. ”
"This weapon is too powerful to be used in a duel, so I don't want to defeat you in this situation. ”
"If your aim is still the same as that of the Pope, then a battle between us is inevitable. ”
Dai Wangjue looked back at the Pope, who was about to enter the siege, and turned back and said, "So, the battle is coming to an end. ”
"What are you kidding, I can still fight!"
"No, you're gone. ”
As Dai Wangjue's right hand shook slightly, the black sword emitted a strange light.
Huang Fu Jue was about to charge, when a sharp pain from his right arm was like being burned by the flames, and the hand holding the sword unconsciously let go.
The sword touched the ground at the same time as his knee, which was a reaction to such a sharp pain that Huang Fu Jue had never received.
No, stand up!
Such a posture is a surrender gesture for a swordsman, and it is an attitude that Huangfu Jue has always regarded as a shame.
He gritted his teeth and straightened his back again, trying not to care about the burning pain that would make him faint.
It must have been the black sword.
Huang Fu Jue could now feel that the source of the pain was the scars left by the attack he had begun to dodge Dai's forgetfulness.
Such a scar could reasonably be ignored directly, but the problem was the jet-black sword in Dai Forgetjue's hand.
Today's Huangfu Jue can stand, and it is forcibly supported by superhuman willpower.
Dai Wangjue also saw the other party's state, and his eyes were full of admiration, but he still turned around to catch up with the Pope.
Huang Fu Jue also wanted to catch up, but he knew very well that if he moved, his body might not be able to support it.
When Dai Wangjue left the hall more than ten steps away, the fatal burning pain gradually eased and subsided.
At that moment, Huang Fu Jue fell to the ground without saying a word as if he had experienced a big battle for three days and three nights, and it took a long time before he began to gasp for breath and tried to stand up.
Looking at the wound on the right arm, it is still a shallow one, which can be completely ignored.
"There's no need to chase after you, General Huangfu. ”
The emperor, who had always been solemn until now, finally spoke.
"But the Pope—"
"You don't have to catch up. ”
The emperor interrupted Huang Fuqi, who had tried his best to say a word.
There was a sudden deathly silence in the main hall.
The shouts of killing outside gradually subsided, and although the Praetorian Guard did not suffer much loss, they were still escaped by the Pope.
The elites of the imperial capital knelt outside the main hall without saying a word, asking for the emperor's forgiveness.
It was midday, and the fiery glow of the sun left a scorching mark on the Praetorian Guards, but they remained as immovable as a silent mountain.
Huang Fujue's physical strength at this time also recovered a lot, and he could barely stand up.
"General Huangfu, let them go and rest first. ”
Huang Fu Jue nodded, waved the small battle flag according to the rules from a distance of dozens of steps, and the Praetorian Guard got the order, and neatly withdrew from the sight of the two.
As for the civil officials at the beginning, they were sent out by several Janissaries at the first moment of the battle.
"Your Majesty, I don't understand. ”
Huangfu Jue turned around and came to the emperor's side.
The Emperor didn't answer his topic, but asked, "What do you think of that sword in the Heavenly Judge's hand?"
"It's terrifying, and it seems to be a secret treasure left behind by the Emperor of Immortality. ”
Huang Fu Jue recalled Dai Wangjue's last words, and concluded that the burning pain he suffered came from the weapon.
And what can achieve this purpose, except magic, Huang Fu Jue can't think of any other reason.
"Your instincts have always been sharp. ”
"Does Your Majesty know the sword?"
It is not surprising that the Holy Emperor's Church, as the most faithful follower of the Immortal Emperor, holds some secret treasures that have been passed down from the Immortal Emperor.
And these treasures are often related to magic.
However, the [Prosperous Heaven] on the Emperor's head was one of the few holy relics that had no effect.
"Of course I knew what it was, but I didn't expect the Pope to do this. ”
Resentment flashed in the emperor's eyes, but he quickly calmed down again: "Strange I didn't expect this, so the general was injured. ”
"Although there is a wound. Huangfu Jue said: "Your Majesty doesn't have to blame yourself, you are not skilled in martial arts, and you have failed to defeat Dai Wangjue." ”
"If I had told you in advance that they might have weapons like that, the General might have been able to defeat him. ”
Normally, only magic can defeat magic, but only for people of comparable strength.
Most of the stories in Hero Tan are the stories of human heroes fighting against magic.
Obviously, in the eyes of the emperor, Huangfu Jue is the hero of the empire.
Huang Fu Jue replied: "Your Majesty is fine, it is the victory of my Huang Fu Jue." ”
"I'm just going to hear about the sword, and make sure that I can guard against him next time. ”
The emperor looked at Huang Fuqi's wound and asked, "How do you feel?"
"It's okay, huh?" Huang Fu Jue looked at the wound seriously, although it was almost healed, but found that the sleeves under the wound had been stained red with blood.
What's going on? It stands to reason that a shallow wound wouldn't have shed so much blood.
Huang Fu Jue's puzzled expression was seen by the emperor.
"The name of that sword is [Constant Darkness King], and as the general guessed, it is a magic weapon left behind by the Emperor of Eternal Life. ”
"You've seen the effects of this as well, it makes the user invisible, makes the wound it causes unable to heal, and applies a curse to the wound, causing severe pain. ”
The emperor noticed the notch in the sword under Huangfu Jue's feet: "As for the hardness and sharpness, it is naturally not comparable to ordinary blades. ”
Huang Fu Jue gasped - is this the horror of magic weapons?
"Of course, there are weaknesses, stealth must be held, and the speed of the blade is too fast, and stealth will be interrupted. That is, it will appear as soon as it attacks or runs quickly. ”
"I see. Huang Fu Jue nodded thoughtfully: "In other words, as long as you don't stand in place, this effect is equivalent to invalidation." ”
But the problem is that even if he wasn't raided by Dai Forgetjue, Huang Fu Jue didn't think that he could defeat him, no, it was to defeat the Constant Dark King.
"Why does Your Majesty know so much information about the Everdark King?"
"I, hahaha, how could I not know!" the emperor slammed his fist on the throne with some anger: "That was originally a relic of the royal family!"
The amount of information received today is too great, and Huang Fu Jue has been stunned in place.
"The Constant Darkness King, originally one of the swords of the Immortal Emperor, was returned to the royal family after its fall. ”
"However, it is only a 'female sword', and it alone cannot exert its full power. At the beginning of its establishment, the Holy Emperor Church was obtained from the royal family of Begliet to show the friendly relationship between the two. ”
Huang Fu Jue knew the basis for the emperor to say that he could defeat Dai Wangjue: "Could it be that there is still a 'male sword'?"
"That's right, this sword is called [Emperor of Light], and it is the opposite of the effect of the Constant Dark King, it can heal injuries, erase cursed poison, and also has the power of burning like the sun, far stronger than the Yin Fire that the Constant Dark King injected into the target's body. ”
Huang Fu Jue said excitedly: "If this sword helps, Dai Wangjue is not afraid at all!"
"No, I don't mean that you have to hold the Emperor of Light to defeat Dai Wangjue. ”
The Emperor shook his head: "Unless the royal family is in danger, the Immortal Emperor's relics will not be used." ”
"Is there any other way to defeat the Everdark King?"
Emperor Fu Jue couldn't believe that he could defeat an enemy who was on par with him and held the Constant Dark King with his own strength alone.
"Know that your opponent is Dai Forgetfulness, not the King of Constant Darkness. ”
The Emperor paused, and said, "Does the General know why Dai Wangjue is in a hurry to leave? That's because using this magic weapon is a very dangerous thing in itself. ”
"The physical fitness is not strong enough, and even before it starts, it will be oppressed by strong magical forces. Generally speaking, it's regurgitation. ”
"The next time you meet Dai Wangjue, remember to avoid the blow that appears, and then try to maneuver around until he can't hold it anymore. ”
"I see. Do you need to take someone to hunt down the Pope?"
"No need, such an old fox must be fully prepared. ”
The Emperor's words were full of exhaustion: "I want to see how he fights with the Begret Empire!"
