Chapter 189, the natural ending
"Ice Swordmaster" Lepp Heinrich is dead after all.
But when he was dying, he still showed the terrifying strength of "the strongest in the world", and used the "magic swordsmanship" that he learned and sold to kill the "sage who moved mountains" Ernst López with one sword.
Although Locke, who saw the clue, blocked it with his body in time, the power of this sword was far beyond his imagination, and the body of a vampire of more than sixty levels could not weaken its power in the slightest. This shocked him in his heart—if he also shot a sword, his magic sword would not be so powerful.
Fortunately, the Juggernaut is finally dead, if he escapes this time, I don't know how many lives will have to be piled up next time to kill this terrible opponent!
Sage López died, and the sword pierced his heart, and the strong sword intent contained in the sword directly invaded his body, destroying the sage's insubstantial body.
In a way that no one could have imagined, he died at the moment when victory had come, and he didn't even have time to leave a last word.
Locke, who was pierced through the chest by a sword, was not a big deal, although he was also seriously injured, but he immediately turned into mist, driving the sword intent contained in that sword out of his body, and then turned back again, so the injury weakened to the extent that it was roughly equivalent to being slashed.
What happens if you are slashed? It is nothing more than a pain, a pain in the flesh, a little bleeding, at most a little bit of muscle and bone - unless it is a heavy machete, or it happens to be cut to the point, or it is like an amateur martial artist who slashes a few knives with his fist and is cut into a blood gourd, otherwise normal people are unlikely to be hacked to death with a knife, but people who are stabbed to death with a knife abound.
That's why there are sayings such as "three cuts are better than one stab", "cutting people to eat prison food, stabbing people to eat guns" and so on.
Locke's means of turning into a mist to resolve injuries are also amazed by the legendary powerhouses. They would be interested in talking to Locke in detail and asking if he could learn this trick, but Locke said that he was busy escorting the bodies of the two seniors back to their hometowns, and he would talk about it later.
This reason is so serious and justified that no one can find a word to refute it. So Locke sorted out the relics of the Sword King and the Old Sage in front of them, put their corpses and relics into their respective space props, and flew towards the southeast of Trella City with these two space props.
"This kid is really capable, if you use that 'magic sword technique' well, it's very powerful!" When he was far away, the dwarf king said, "However, this trick is too much equipment, and if you don't have a good sword, everything will be in vain." ”
"He's going to have a great weapon. The dragon lord said, "A person with such skills, weapons or something, it will not be difficult for him." ”
The Dwarf King nodded, and then looked at the corpse of the Sword Saint on the ground, and his eyes couldn't help but have a little horror in his eyes, "Rip Heinrich is really a terrible opponent! Even when he was dying, he could learn other people's tricks on the spot, and then use them to kill people - I have never heard of such a powerful guy!"
"Maybe even in the Second Age, when there were so many masters, he could be considered outstanding......" the Dragon Lord sighed, "If he didn't have to be on the side of the evil Thrace, I really wanted to make him a friend." It's not easy to make such a great friend!"
"Yes, I obviously have such skills and talents, but I want to ...... It's a pity!" the Dwarven King sighed.
The Blood Axe interrupted their exclamation and asked, "Are you all right?" I'm going to go back to the Swamp to recuperate for a few years. ”
"Ah, I'm going back to the hot springs for a few years. Today I feel like I've used up at least twenty years of hard work!" The Dragon Lord immediately chimed in, saying something that was simply lazy to the point of being quite lazy, "Jose, do you want to go back? ”
"I don't want it!" the Dwarven King immediately rejected the seemingly imposing offer, "The Dwarves are the sons of the mountains, and we are accustomed to walking on the ground. ”
"You honestly admit that you are afraid of heights!" The mermaid queen also knew them, so she naturally knew that this dwarf king had a fear of heights and flew on a dragon.
The Dwarven King smiled awkwardly, packed up his things a little, said goodbye to the two friends who were the first to leave, and said, "So...... I'll leave this matter to you. ”
"I don't care about these things!" said the Mermaid Queen with a smile, "Except for the cavalry of the Elantz family rushing out to fight, the rest of the Erlanz family should be hiding in the rear, I will find them out and leave the matter to them." ”
The two of them said it lightly, and they didn't take the relics of the Ice Sword Saint to heart at all.
One of them is the king of the dwarven kingdom and the other is the king of the mermaid kingdom, both of them are rich, how can they do things that make a fortune from the dead?
At this moment, there was a sudden thunderclap in the sky. The two of them looked up, but saw that the dark clouds from nowhere were gathering rapidly, and in a moment the whole sky was dark, and it was about to rain.
"It's rain summoned by magic. The Dwarf King said subconsciously, and then suddenly rejoiced, "Hey, that kid is flying in the sky, don't let a thunderbolt blow his tail......"
Amused by the old dwarf's out-of-the-box thinking, the mermaid queen shook her head, ignored the words, and took out a crystal wand and pointed it at the sky.
"It's going to rain to save people...... I'll help too. ”
A moment later, the downpour fell and finally extinguished the flames that had raged in the Thracian position.
Liu Daoqing, who had just recovered from weakness and tried his best to rain heavily, showed the prototype, carrying Katarina, who had finally woken up on her back, but was still a little dizzy, and took the remnants of the defeated soldiers who had escaped from the explosion and flames to fly back to Elands Castle, which had become a dangerous house in the battle of the legendary powerhouses.
Seeing the Ice Sword Saint and López Sage on the spot, and asking about the battle, they had a lot to say in their hearts, but they didn't want to say anything because of the mental and physical exhaustion.
In the end, a thousand words converge into a long sigh.
After the Dwarf King and the Mermaid Queen said goodbye and left, Caterina summoned Otto, Pierd and others, who had been arranged in advance to the rear, to arrange some urgent matters such as the preservation of the Mentor's body, and then sat side by side with Liu Daoqing next to the castle suspension bridge.
The rain has gradually subsided, and this rain not only extinguished the fire, but also brought a lot of coolness to the hot summer.
"Katarina, this war ...... We won the war, right?" Liu Daoqing asked tiredly as he looked at the black smoke that was still rising in the direction of the battlefield.
"Of course! Ice Juggernaut, Mountain of Shields, Verdant Wanderer...... We killed three legendary powerhouses, and it can almost be said that we completely annihilated the coalition of hundreds of thousands of Thracian nobles. Caterina barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "This is a brilliant victory, the kind that can go down in history!"
"But we also gave a lot. Liu Daoqing said, "The Storm Legion is over, Elands Castle is almost finished, and even Mentor López is ...... This victory is too heavy!"
"We have no choice and if we don't win, we're forced to give more. ”
Liu Daoqing smiled bitterly and said, "I still can't believe that we really won...... The Thracians themselves destroyed themselves......"
"If we hadn't rushed over and forced Norman Speke to escape, would that magic circle have exploded on its own?
Thinking of the hellish scene he saw on the battlefield just now, Liu Daoqing couldn't help but sigh deeply: "Alas! It's so miserable! Hundreds of thousands of people...... Except for the stronger ones, almost all of the ordinary soldiers are dead......"
Caterina hung her head too, and after a moment, said, "No way, this is war! ”
"I understand, it's just ...... It's a little uncomfortable. Liu Daoqing nodded with a wry smile, thought about it, and asked, "So...... The Elantz family's war of independence was a victory?"
"Not necessarily, for the time being, although the battle has been won, but until the end of the negotiations, it cannot be said that it will be a certain success. "Let's just say that we already have a huge advantage. We won at least ninety percent of this war of independence. ”
"I hope there won't be another war like this in the future. ”
"Well, you're right!"
The two sat for a while, Liu Daoqing hesitated a few times, and finally mustered up the courage and said, "That...... There is a famous saying in my hometown that it is called 'starting a family'. Generally speaking, after a successful career, it is time to think about family issues......"
Caterina turned her head and didn't say anything, just looked at him with a smile.
Liu Daoqing became more and more nervous by her, and she spoke in a slurred manner. He knew what he was going to say, but when he said it, it became "payroll", "buy a house" and even "mortgage", "down payment", and "six wallets...... Later, he simply said that "it is troublesome to have a cat, maybe you should have a dog", "children are also troublesome, but it is not okay" and other things that he himself did not understand.
He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, but the more anxious he was, the more incoherent he became, and his head became more and more dizzy.
Finally, Caterina had enough of his joke and raised her hand to cover his mouth.
"Alright, alright. Her eyes reflected the rainbow that emerged after the summer rainstorm, so clear that Liu Daoqing wanted to fall into it, "What you said at the beginning made a lot of sense, starting a family and starting a business - I am also going to be a queen, I should indeed start a family, are you interested in changing your title and becoming 'Prince Alanz'?"
Liu Daoqing's eyes widened, and he almost jumped up with excitement.
Moments later, he posted "I'm getting married" in the chat channel, followed by at least twenty exclamation points and a hundred smiley faces.
