The battle had been going on for almost a whole day, the cloudy sky was gradually fading, and in the battle to the death, people had long forgotten the time, and now, the formation of the dark tide in the distance on the opposite side began to blur in the eyes of the people, and it was only then that they realized that it would not be long before it was going to be dark. br />

Nigel's spellcasting sound gradually sounded, Fern stood motionless, and the virtual spirit on the opposite side did not dare to attack rashly, and the three of them were frozen there. Adeline had been helped back into the middle of the crowd by Miruria, and Lucius had lifted her on her horse so she could rest for a while. Enoch stood beside Miluria, looking nervously at Fern and Nigel, the four of whom were already tightly connected.

Fern listened intently to the sound of Nigel's spell until the last syllable, and as Nigel had just paused, Fern rushed out like an arrow off the string. Defenseless, the Ethereal Spirit hedged towards Fern, its white lightsaber streaking through the air, even more dazzling in the dark valley.

Faced with the Ethereal Spirit's attack, Fern closed his eyes, not only to avoid the impact of the flash of light and arrow on his eyesight, but also because he knew that Nigel's magic was coming in an instant, and the mage's magic would not let the Ethereal Spirit's attack succeed. A whirlwind with the scent of blades of grass blew from behind and towards Fern's front. The ethereal scream rang out, and Fern opened his eyes, a pale green whirlwind surrounded the ethereal, and the hand holding the lightsaber was also wrapped around another whirlwind, and black smoke came out of his black arm.

The ethereal spirit struggled hard, and actually tore the green whirlwind into several pieces, Fern was not too surprised, he took advantage of this precious gap to rush to the ethereal spirit, with a shout, the sword in the stone swung up from the lower right corner, and the ethereal spirit raised the lightsaber and slashed towards his lower left, resisting the mercenary's attack. Fern didn't stop the charge, the two swords just collided together, his right foot kicked hard, jumping towards the right side of the ethereal spirit, the sword in the stone against the lightsaber, the blade facing downward, and at the same time lifting upward, instantly got rid of the power of the lightsaber, and slashed towards the chest of the ethereal spirit.

The Ethereal raised its arm quickly, but Fern's sword was already close at hand, and the sword in the stone slashed across the black arm, and a hiss came from the helmet again. Fern still didn't stop, he had already circled behind the ethereal spirit, and his right hand held the sword in the stone back, slashing horizontally from the horizontal direction. Aware of the imminent attack on his back, the Ethereal Spirit suddenly jumped forward to dodge the attack with a sudden force on his feet, but the green whirlwind wrapped around his body again, pinning him firmly in place. br />

The sword in the stone silently slashed through the back of the ethereal spirit, the metal armor was completely severed, and the black smoke in the armor was also cut into a gap, and the smoke on both sides of the gap was trying to reconnect.

Nigel's spell suddenly rang out, and even the crowd behind her could hear it clearly, and Adeline's eyes widened in surprise. "It's ...... Dragons' magic. ”

"Dragons' magic?" the three young mages all looked at the Great Sage in shock, and Ness could barely close her mouth. "Why would a human know dragon magic?"

"Because we met the dragon in Blackridge Mountain. Miruria answered Ness's question.

Ness was about to ask again, but Nigel's spell stopped, and a dazzling green light suddenly erupted in front of her.

The illusion of a green dragon appeared behind Nigel's back, and the mage's hands reached forward, and the wand in his right hand emitted a green glow, almost encircling Nigel's hands. The green whirlwind that entwined the ethereal spirit became thinner and darker, like a green rope, and began to tighten slowly. In the wound that was cut by the sword in the stone, the whirlwind continued to drill into it like a dark green plant. The ethereal spirit screamed in pain, and the black smoke on its body emitted into the air.

Ferne's attacks continued, he had entered his rhythm, while the Ethereal Spirit was restrained by Nigel's magic and was unable to defend effectively. The sword in the stone reflected a green light, cutting beautiful curves in the air, and each blow was unhurried and just right. The blade slashed across the Void Spirit's shoulder, right leg, and chest, and the wound caused by it was not long before it was filled with a green whirlwind, which kept spinning up and down the Void Spirit's body, pulling the black smoke out of the Void Spirit's body.

Fern stood in front of the ethereal, expressionless as he looked at his opponent, who was no longer able to move. "You've seen what we can do now, but that's the last thing you'll ever see. With that, Fernping raised the sword in the stone, took a step forward, and stabbed the sword into the helmet of the ethereal spirit.

A terrible scream came from the helmet, mixed with the hissing of gas. Fern drew his sword back, and the ethereal head tilted upward, his body no longer struggling, allowing Nigel's green whirlwind to sink deep into his body. Eventually, the whirlwind completely penetrated the ethereal spirit's body, and every inch of the black body was taken over by green. Nigel raised his hands in the air, then swung them down with force, and a green whirlwind exploded from inside the ethereal spirit's body, completely dispersing the black body.

Seeing that their masters had been wiped out, the two black dragons flapped their wings and kicked their two hind legs hard towards the sky, and flew north without looking back. Fern shouted at the red dragon, and at the same time swung his sword in the direction where the black dragon flew, and the four young dragons suddenly flew into the sky with a scream, chasing the black dragon, and disappeared after a while.

Nigel struggled to put down his hands and sat on the ground panting, Fern exhaled, the sword in the stone hung on the right side of his body, and the black smoke scattered in the air, gradually fading.

"They made it!" Stan shouted, almost jumping up from the ground.

The three young mages all looked at Fern and Nigel in disbelief, they couldn't believe that they had defeated an Ethereal Spirit with just one mercenary and one ** division. Adeline looked at the two in front of her seriously, thoughtful.

"But the battle is not over. Botarus' voice brought the crowd back to reality, and the king mounted a horse beside him that had lost its owner. "The remnants of the Dark Tide are still ahead, and our heroes have destroyed the obstacles that stand in their way, and it is time for us to fight bravely. ”

"Yes, for the sake of the dead, for the sake of our comrades-in-arms who were still with us yesterday. Lucius also mounted his horse.

"For all those who put their hopes in us. Stan stepped onto a horse that was still looking for his owner and patted it on the neck.

All the cavalry were back on their horses, and the infantry tightened their swords, and Ethan led his mount to the front of the crowd and raised his sword. "For all those who have died in this war, drive the Dark Tide back north of the North, for Wallis!"

"For Wallis!" the cries of the soldiers echoed throughout the valley, and the remaining cavalry, led by the two kings and Ethan, began their final charge, the earth trembling with the rumble of iron hooves on the ground.

The morale of the dark tide had disappeared when the two ethereal spirits were destroyed, and now they were in chaos in the face of the overwhelming and charging cavalry. The demons simply left the ghouls behind and turned and fled backwards, the ghouls lost their command and were completely helpless, so they could only push each other and follow the demons backwards.

The cavalry caught up with the dark tide and rushed into the formation like a wave, and the dark tide, which had no fighting spirit, scattered and fled, trampling each other. Ethan led the cavalry all the way to cover the past, all the way to the northern foot of the Black Ridge Mountain, and the shouts of killing echoed in the valley, and could not be dispersed for a long time.

Fern's mind was filled with echoes, and suddenly a voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar burrowed into his ears. "Fern!"

The voice...... Fern jerked his head up and looked in the direction from which the voice came, and a figure he had thought about a million times in his mind ran towards him, and the cold wind blew the girl's cloak and long bright red hair. "Ness?" Fern's brain hadn't yet reacted, but his feet were already running.

The two stopped at the same time a few steps apart, Ness's eyes were already soaked with tears, and she looked up at the long-missed mercenary in front of her. Fern's eyes were full of surprise and incredulity, and his open mouth trembled slightly, and he held back for a long time before he spoke, "Is it really you, Ness......? I'll never see you again. ”

"It's me, Fern, it's me...... Ness. The girl blinked, and the tears finally could not be held back, oozing from the corners of her eyes and crossing her cheeks. "I'm sorry, Fern, please forgive me......"

"Don't say anything now, as long as you're safe, nothing else matters. Fern walked slowly towards the girl, arms outstretched.

"Fern ......" Ness couldn't keep her reserve any longer, and threw herself into Fern's arms, her hands clutching his clothes, tears welling up like a bank, and the grievances, fears and worries that had been going on for so many years erupted at this moment.

Fern gently stroked the girl's trembling shoulders, his lips pressed against her long hair, his eyes closed, feeling the fragrance and body temperature of Ness's body.

Rui and Nerfi watched the two from a distance, touched by their true feelings, and the two mages had a relieved smile on their faces.
