Chapter Forty-Six: Hitting the Little One and Coming to the Old One (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"Viscount Andrei......" Anna repeated the name in a low voice, her voice filled with uncontrollable fear.
The young man standing in front of the altar was none other than their future lord, Viscount Andrei, with a well-defined face, rugged and slightly gloomy, like the other members of the Vladimir family, he had blonde hair, blue eyes, and a unique tough-guy style, but unfortunately, his eyes were filled with inexplicable horror at this time, I don't know whether he was terrified by the easy defeat of Duda and the Frost Giant Knight, or panicked by being blocked in the scene of demon worship.
However, Anna did not pay attention to Viscount Andrei's expression, she was full of information, stories and legends about the other party: a genius knight, the future Count of Calkath, a member of the Vladimir family, who was promoted to the rank of Grand Knight at a young age, and was recently favored by the Epic Knight and became a student of the other party......
These titles and deeds, even if they are taken out alone, can make ordinary mercenaries like Anna feel fearful, so, after the combination, even if Viscount Andrei has not yet made a move, even if there is a powerful magician Sister Katrina and a handsome vampire like a legend floating around her, she will tremble from the bottom of her heart.
"He must have something extraordinary, even among the fifth-level knights, he must be the most outstanding minority, otherwise it is impossible to be favored by the epic knights......"
"He is the future Earl of Calkath, and if the battle is discovered, the Celestial Knights will definitely destroy us......"
"And, moreover, he is a student of the Epic Knight, and 'Death Storm' Ninel wonders if the Dao has given him high-level items and special powers...... Sister Katrina killed him by words. Will you be hunted down by the Epic Knights?"
Countless thoughts sprung up in Anna's mind at the same time, not to mention whether Sister Katrina and that handsome vampire could beat Viscount Andrei, his status as an epic knight student alone would make people scruple and fearful, and they would not dare to put him to death - Andrei was killed just two or three months after becoming his student, and "Death Storm" Ninel would definitely feel that he had been slapped hard, and who could escape the epic knight who controlled the power of death?
Similar worries, trepidation, and fear permeated the hearts of every mercenary, and Yakov was no exception, but he quickly stabilized his emotions, it was Viscount Andrei who wanted to kill himself and the others. If you don't resist. He will definitely die now, and if he resists, he may still be alive in the future, after all, compared to the Epic Knight and the Count of Calkart. Themselves and others are just little ants on the ground. Run a little farther. Maybe they didn't bother to chase it down themselves.
So, how to choose is self-explanatory!
"You shouldn't have come in, you forced me to do this. Force me ......" Andre in front of the altar kept repeating this sentence, and the blood mist that filled the altar became thicker and thicker.
"What's wrong with him?" Viscount Calendia, though he claimed to be knowledgeable and knew a lot of mysteries, still couldn't understand Andrea's current state, so he asked through Katrina's pre-blessed psychic connection.
Katrina looked at the deranged Viscount Andre with indifferent eyes like a golem, and calmly judged: "Probably we interrupted the ritual, so that he was corrupted by the demon's power and was in a temporary state of mental abnormality, seizing the opportunity to take him down." ”
As she spoke, a layer of pure brilliance lit up on her body, and then fireworks burst into dazzling light that continued to hit the thick blood mist, the dark statues, and the strange altar.
When she casts the "Mysterious Light", she is like wearing a feather cloak woven of light, which looks radiant, sacred and solemn, and in the eyes of Anna, Yakov and others, it is like an angel descending to the world, slowly spreading the wings of light behind her - this kind of spell is created by the Magic Council with reference to divine magic, except for the special fluctuations without divine magic, the appearance is very similar.
Streams of light hit the blood mist, bursting out with a blinding brightness, but the blood mist that surrounded this altar was significantly stronger than those in the outer hall that were dissipated by the wind-making spell, and they were only slightly fainter after being continuously hit by the "arcane light".
And Katrina's "mysterious light" woke up Viscount Andrei, the horror in his eyes disappeared, and his face was gloomy as water: "I said, you forced me!"
With his words and gestures, black lines lit up on the floor, and they spread from all directions, burrowing into the altar, forming a three-dimensional magic array, and a dark mist poured out from the center of the altar, making the statue loom and filled with a faint cold meaning.
"Hurry up, the ritual is almost complete!" Katrina urged Viscount Calendia to do it while casting "Lucien's Great Fireball", "Sunburn", "Thundercloud Technique" and other magic spells to attack the altar and Viscount Andre.
At the moment when the ritual was initiated, she felt a strong danger, the ritual was almost complete, just waiting for the most difficult start!
Viscount Karendia pursed his lips: "I thought things were going well......"
The cloak behind him lifted up and turned into a thick darkness, enveloping the altar with himself, corroding the magical patterns.
Viscount Andre, who was under the protection of the magic array, watched the blood mist, black mist, and magic pattern gradually disintegrate under the joint efforts of the two, and shook his head fiercely: "You forced me!"
He took out a dagger from the storage bag that had no light flickering, the whole body was milky white, but it looked stiff and rigid, and the air of death was thick, and seeing it seemed to see the call of death!
"This is the high-ranking dagger 'Invitation to Niner' given to me by my teacher, and now I use it as a ritual sacrifice. At the urging of the ceremony, it will turn into a pure, utter storm of death, from which none of you can escape!" Viscount André laughed madly and threw the "Invitation of Ninell" into the center of the altar.
"You are the Lord of Darkness, the embodiment of despair, and you will freeze the world when the end comes......" Viscount André raised his hands and chanted the ritual prayer aloud, like a cult priest is better than a knight.
"They worship the 'Demon Prince' Gornheim!" The deeds of the Dark Lord have been heard a lot in the Atomic Research Institute in recent months, so Katrina is no stranger. Reminds Viscount Calendia.
Inside the altar, darkness poured out, causing a layer of frost to condense around it, and suddenly, the altar shook violently along with the entire main house and manor, and a cyclone deeper than darkness and more desperate than cold slowly emerged, and as soon as she saw it, Anna felt a chill from her heart, as she had felt when she was on the verge of death before.
All the mercenaries, including Yakov, were caught in sight by the cyclone. As it turns. I felt that my soul and body were fighting and wrestling, and I couldn't control it.
With a bang, under the influence of an increasingly violent cyclone, the darkness that shrouded outside the altar was lifted. Countless small black bats crashed into the wall. Lost all life force.
The figure of Viscount Karen Dia of Deathstorm ...... appeared in front of Katrina. His face turned a little pale, and he bared his teeth and said, "I hate this kind of battle that uses rituals to generate the power of high-level items......
He spoke at the same time. He took out a picture frame from his bosom, and inside was a portrait of Rhine with silver hair and silver eyes, which seemed more serious than himself.
Experiencing the feeling of death from the depths of her soul, Anna thought in despair and fear, "Is this the power of a legend?
She turned her head with difficulty, looked at Katrina, and wanted her to leave herself alone and run away, with her strength she should be able to escape, but under the shock of death, she opened her mouth but couldn't make a sound!
"Hey, what is Sister Katrina doing......" Nearly blank in her mind, Anna suddenly saw that Katrina's left hand was constantly pressing a silver badge with various mysterious symbols painted on it.
"Haluha, you'll soon be able to taste the 'Death Storm'. Andre didn't care that the blood mist and magic array around him were crumbling under the constant attacks, and laughed wildly.
Anna tried to close her eyes in agony, the pressure of death was too unbearable, but at this moment, she heard Katrina make a high, ethereal voice, very different from her usual voice.
"A cry from the starry sky, calling for the advent of the atomic universe......"
Anna was shocked to see an endless starry sky emerge behind Katrina, dark and deep, with brilliant stars, exuding various colors that were different from normal.
"Starry skies?"
"The universe is coming?"
Similar questions surged in the minds of her, Yakov and others.
Then they felt the vastness of the universe, the subtlety of the stars, which seemed to contain endless mysteries.
This feeling of immensity suddenly soothed their hearts oppressed by death, and they could no longer feel a trace of despair and pain.
"This, what kind of strength is this?"
"Is it also a legend?"
In their wide eyes, a gaseous planet changed, diffusing into a "dark blue" that froze everything, and Katrina threw a tube of colorless liquid in her right hand.
With the blessing of the "Atomic Universe", she didn't use a spell, and directly shattered the test tube, causing the liquid to condense into a colorless strange ray, and then hit the magic circle that was on the verge of shattering.
The water vapor froze, the blood mist froze, the surrounding air froze, dark blue, light blue, and transparent reflected each other, and the black death storm that broke out also froze, like patches of black snowflakes.
And in it, Viscount André also froze, the object cracked, the skin was like ice crystals, the blood was completely solid, and the expression on his face was frozen in the most consternation.
Then, the cold disappeared, everything began to melt, and everything before became a thin droplet.
Looking at this incredible scene, Anna and the others only felt that they were still in a dream.
"I knew that you had this kind of ritual prepared in advance, so I wouldn't have taken the picture frame......" Viscount Calendia put away the portrait of the Rhine, "Evans's Extreme Cold Ray?"
"Yes. Katrina's face was quite pale, and a drop of cold sweat leaked from her forehead, "It seems that Andre held a ritual to worship the 'Dark Lord' in order to improve his strength and potential. ”
"It should be, otherwise it would not have been possible that not long after that ceremony ended, he became a student of the 'Death Storm', and the 'Dark Lord' is the most demon-like among the demon kings, and it is normal to develop believers. Viscount Calendia nodded thoughtfully.
............
Inside a castle, a mirror-like light curtain reflects what is happening in Duda's manor.
"Master, you can easily kill them. "A beautiful and sexy woman knelt next to a young man and fed him red wine with her mouth, and she had a pair of cute little black horns on her forehead.
The young man stroked the woman's hair and slowly looked away from the light curtain, he had a face exactly like Viscount Andrea!
"Heh, what if you kill it?one is a student of the Grand Arcanist, and the other is a close descendant of the vampire prince, you say things will settle down there?" Andre smiled, "If you are an ordinary magician and a vampire, kill it, cover it up a little, find a murderer, the magic council and the vampire will not pay too much attention, but now, these two are coming, we can only give them an 'answer', anyway, our plan has been successful, and Andrei's identity can also disappear." ”
The sexy woman nodded: "Yes, if we are pursued by the Magic Council and the Vampire Clan, our future actions will be much more troublesome, but how do you know that the Master of Magic sent by the Magic Council is Katrina, a student of 'Atomic Control'? Otherwise, Duda would have killed Yakov and them on the way." ”
"Andre" smiled and didn't answer directly: "Anyway, this is the end of the matter, I don't want them to have an accident, otherwise Lucien, Evans and Rhein Karendia might have come over, this kind of 'beating the little and the old' thing is the most troublesome and annoying, hey......"
The main thing is that you can't beat it yourself......
He stood up, his facial muscles squirming, his figure shrinking, and he turned into a middle-aged man with black hair with an indifferent face. (To be continued......)
