In the following time, in addition to cultivation, Roy devoted all his energy to the research of the Demon Armor.

The fifth-level Blood Demon Leopard's Life Magic Pattern, coupled with the Illusion Tower's synergistic Demon Pattern, paved the way for him to create a new set of Demon Armor's most critical main Demon Pattern structure. However, the rest of the work is just as heavy. In addition to the primary pattern, he must also design a secondary pattern to assist in combat. And turn the magic pattern on the painted magic board into a real set of battle armor.

The next day, Roy used the Firewing Soul Eater to sneak away from the knights' protection and go to the Golden Skull Auction House.

At Tracy's place, he exchanged all the Jin Lu Lang in his hand with materials for painting demons and refining medicines, and ordered ten more sets of six-star magic gold armor.

Because Roy completed the wand mission of Aristotle, the god of law, Tracy has now been promoted to the elder of the auction house under the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce. The status is so honorable that even the Elders of the General can no longer move her position at will. At the same time, the elevation of status brings about the expansion of power.

Tracy didn't say a word about the ten sets of magic gold armor that Roy needed, and ordered it to be transferred.

This batch of armor is of better quality than the one Roy bought before. The level has reached the peak of six stars. And the price, as long as the price is the same as the previous batch. A total of 1.1 million gold lulangs.

After purchasing the painting and alchemy materials, Roy had little cash left. Therefore, these ten sets of magic gold armor were paid for by Tracy with her own money.

However, neither Roy nor Tracy took this huge amount of money that ordinary little nobles could not earn in their lifetime as a thing.

As far as Tracy is concerned, Roy's previous help to her, even if he gave him all the money, was not enough to repay it. A shared experience. The two have been firmly united. Trust in Roy has become Tracy's instinct.

Besides, with Roy's attainments in magic patterns and alchemy, it would take three or five months at most to earn this money. If there were any more tasks entrusted by a big man like Aristotle, then. The Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce's harvest will be far greater than the profit from selling ten sets of magic gold armor.

That's the value of friendship for a Magician. Moreover, Roy's future is obviously not comparable to that of ordinary magicians.

And in Roy's case, debt wasn't an issue either.

Tracy didn't know that he had broken through to the second star of the Magus. The magic patterns that can be drawn have been raised to level six. It was far from being comparable to the previous fourth-level magic patterns. If he takes a level 5 or 6 magic pattern drawing task, he can earn tens of thousands of gold lulangs. And it took only a few prayer hours.

In a way, Roy is now a humanoid gold-absorbing machine.

And more importantly, the completion of the main magic pattern of this set of demon armor. gave Roy a lot of confidence. A Pattern Master, and a Master of Patterns who can make Battle Armor, is like the difference between a gecko and a tiger.

Therefore, from the beginning, Roy had no intention of paying back the money.

In return, at some point, he will sell this set of first-order demonic armor that he created to Tracy. It is an exclusive item offered by the Golden Skull Auction House.

Of course, this time. Tracy didn't know that Roy had already completed the construction of the main pattern of the Demon Armor. I don't know what kind of rich return she will get for the more than one million gold Lulang she lent.

After returning to the barracks, Roy locked himself in his room and began to make the magic armor.

The first thing he made was a pair of arm guards.

Black metal armguards on the wooden table in front of Roy. The smooth surface flows with wisps of golden light. On the edge of the arm guard, it is engraved with a pattern like a vine, which is exquisite, but also has a hint of antiquity. Even putting aside the material and function of the arm guard itself. It's also a work of art.

The armguards are cut through them like bamboo tubes, and two delicate sheets and two buckles connect them together. This design makes it easy to put on quickly.

Roy concocted a special ink made of more than twenty materials as he observed the familiar armguards. Under the Eye of the Elements and powerful perception, every detail of the armguards, and even every millimeter of construction inside, can be seen at a glance.

The structure of the main demon pattern had already been imprinted in Roy's mind, and there would not be the slightest difference. However, only if it fully fits the magic pattern of the arm guard itself, can it be most effective.

It wasn't until a prayer hour later that Roy took out the magic pen, filled it with ink, and drew the first stroke on the armguard.

The tip of the pen fell, and the arm guard made a slight sizzling sound under the erosion of the ink, and countless golden fine powders rose into the air, forming mysterious magic symbols. The smooth surface of the arm guard was slightly concave, and a beautiful magic pattern as if it had been engraved by an invisible hand, blooming with a blue glow, slowly emerged......

After just half a prayer hour, Roy had already completed the magic pattern of the armguard.

The main pattern of a single component has only twenty-six magic patterns. During the research and design phase, it was very difficult to complete these twenty-six magic patterns. It also takes a lot of effort and time. But as long as it is successfully finalized, it is not much difficulty for Roy to draw.

Roy put the armguards on his arm and took a deep breath to activate the warring.

As the battle ring penetrated, Roy only felt that the arm guard magic pattern burst out with a majestic power, and with the magic symbol that emerged, it was attached to the battle ring. The speed of rotation of the Battle Ring increases rapidly. More heaven and earth spiritual power is attracted and driven by the battle ring. In the rotation, it was as if a small energy storm had formed.

Even if he wasn't using his skills, Roy could feel the immense power within. It's like a powder keg, as long as you drop a spark yourself, you will make all the qiē explode to ashes.

However, although this power is violent and powerful, it is completely controlled.

Roy punches out. After the same white light, the puppet with only half of its body left was broken again. It's just that this cut off this time is only one centimeter. It's like a skilled chef cutting a thin slice from a large piece of beef.

And the arm guards did not have the slightest abnormality after bearing the explosive power of the battle ring. Sturdy Cheng dù, but also exceeded Roy's expectations. Dark blue magic patterns silently crouched on the surface of the black arm. If you don't look closely, it's hard to notice its presence. Only the next excitation. The same light and power will erupt.

I happily played with the first magic component I created for a while. Roy soon got back to work.

There were also leg armors, abdominal armors, cuirasses and helmets.

He can't wait to see the arrival of the "sky change"!

.....................

.....................

The Filies, like a tidal wave, retreated to the south.

A gust of wind blew through the waist-length grass of the battlefield and pulled a tattered firebee heraldic flag. There was a snapping sound. The flag was still firmly held in the hands of the soldiers holding the flag. However, the soldier's body was cold and stiff. He knelt diagonally on the ground, leaning on the flagpole inserted into the ground with his upper body so that he did not fall.

His body was full of arrows. Blood, already stained the ground beneath him.

Beside him, several warhorses that had lost their owners wandered among the corpses, making a mournful roar from time to time. A dead knight, lying on the grass with his back to the sky. On the silver armor. Covered in blood. A remnant flower with only a few petals left stretched out diagonally from his shoulder, swaying gently.

From the hills in the distance to the plains in the near distance to the small river that runs through the corner of the battlefield, the corpses of soldiers on both sides are everywhere. Blood flowed down the ground, converging into a trickle, and at the edge of the gentle river, it washed out bright red semicircles. Then, wisps of water are paddled along the river. It only makes the color of the river section darker and darker.

On a small hillside in the north of the battlefield, Fanolle stopped his horse and looked at the scene in front of him silently.

In the sky above him, several vultures were circling and making piercing calls. On the horizon, there are more black dots flying in this direction. These scavengers. You can always smell death.

Fano was silent, his eyes glinting with pain.

Although in the battle that had just ended, his army had suffered 1,165 casualties and more than 3,000 minor and serious wounded. Having defeated an infantry regiment and a cavalry battalion of the Phillips, he took another important step forward by allowing the troops pointing to the Night Canyon to take another important step, but he did not have the slightest joy.

The night canyon was still thirty-two kilometers away from where he was standing at the moment, and the actual marching distance was more than seventy kilometers.

On this 70-kilometer road of advance, there are armies of Ferret armed to the teeth. They were like a pack of jackals, constantly roaming around Solan's army, looking for opportunities. From time to time, he will pounce on him and take a hard bite. If it weren't for the coordinated protection of the Momiji Knights and the Twelfth Legion on both wings, Fano wouldn't even believe that he could get here.

And how many more battles like this will be experienced?

In the end, how many soldiers can be left to stand in the Night Canyon and face the main force of the Filie Army?

Fano has no answers to these questions.

All he knew was that there was no way back for Lulian. It's a battle where both sides understand what the other wants to do. And the Night Canyon is the final battlefield.

Now, both sides are fighting in a situation that borders on tacit understanding.

Solan's army tried to open the passage to the Night Canyon and rescued the besieged Grand Duke Adolf. The Filie's army, on the other hand, was intercepted layer by layer along the way. While consuming the living strength of the Solan army, he is preparing for a decisive battle with the Solan army in the Night Canyon and annihilating the main force led by Fano in one fell swoop. Thus breaking through the defense line of Medin City.

It's not a close fight.

Fano knows that his chances of winning will not exceed 30 percent. But for him, for Archduke Adolf, for all of Lulian, it was the best chance he could get. No other way.

Several vultures landed beside a dead Solan warrior and surrounded him, trying to tear at his flesh.

A tall figure appeared beside Fano. With a flick of his fingers, a red light flashed, instantly piercing through the body of a vulture. The other vultures, sensing the threat of death, took to the air. Still, they hovered in the sky, refusing to leave.

Fano turned his head to see that it was Karenich.

With the advent of Karenich, a phalanx of infantry, crossed the slope of the hill where Fano was located, and advanced to the south. Immediately afterwards, another phalanx appeared to the right of Fano, followed diagonally in front of it. Then the third, the fourth......

On the two wings of the infantry phalanx were long serpentine cavalry formations. The soldier rode forward in silence. The horse's hooves trampled on the blood-stained meadow, passing the corpse of the Solan soldier who had fought bloodily with the enemy and remained in a killing posture to the death. Only the constant sound of horses' hooves and the muffled breathing of the cavalry remained.

On the horizon, the remnant sun is like blood.

.....................

.....................

To the south, eight kilometers from Fano, a Filiet army was slowly retreating to the south.

Behind the Great Army, there was a barracks that had already been destroyed. Several squads of cavalry. Armed with torches, they set fire to wooden barracks, walls, arrow towers, and other supplies that could not be taken away.

Although it was a retreat, it was highly disciplined from the noble knights, down to the ordinary soldiers, and even the civilians who transported supplies. Look at it from afar. The two long queues were not chaotic at all. There were only heralds and flag bearers, who occasionally rode their horses and galloped around. Horses' hooves kick up dust on a sun-soaked dirt road.

And between the two long dragons hundreds of meters apart, a silver giant elephant walked slowly.

The elephant's long tusks, five meters long, resembled two giant scimitars. With a slight swing of the skull. In the sunlight, the skin of the giant elephant flows with a metallic glow. It takes every step. The earth shuddered. Compared to it, the soldiers walking next to it looked like a swarm of ants.

When passing by this giant elephant, both soldiers and knights will subconsciously stay away from it. This kind of ninth-order demonic beast, even if it is just walking quietly. The power exuded is not something that ordinary people can bear.

However, this terrifying behemoth is just a pack beast.

On its broad back, almost as large as a courtyard, carried a huge gazebo. in the gazebo. A man in a white linen robe was recuperating with his eyes half-closed. Five young men of different heights, twenty-four or five years old, dressed in the same black uniform, stood solemnly behind him, motionless.

Several Fei Lie generals sat respectfully in front of the white-robed man, like several lifeless sculptures. It wasn't until the white-robed man stretched his waist and opened his eyes that these generals, who were covered in the aura of battlefield killing, seemed to come to life.

"Have all the troops on the front line been withdrawn?" asked the white-robed man. His voice was soft and warm, but his eyes were as sharp as a blade. The terrifying aura made the generals seem to be facing not a person, but a fierce beast from ancient times. Even the ferocity of the silver elephant under the seat was completely suppressed.

"Your Excellency the Marquis de Minai," replied a gray-haired general in his fifties, Huo Ran stood up and stood straight, "has been withdrawn." ”

"What about casualties?" the white-robed man reclined in his chair.

"We lost 1,590 killed and more than 2,700 wounded. Of these, 613 were seriously injured. The enemy was killed...... "The gray-haired general quickly reported a series of numbers.

The white-robed man was silent and did not speak.

After the debriefing, the gray-haired general stood straight, not squinting. The rest of the people remained silent. Not even the atmosphere dared to take a breath.

The white-robed man's name was Minai, forty-three years old, and he was the Marquis of the Seven Colored Seas of the Feilie Empire. The most brilliant and favorite of Peter I's young generals. At the age of eighteen, he led the army to the army, and in twenty-five years, thirty-one battles and thirty-one victories. Swept through the northern and northwest plateau barbarians of the Feilie Empire, suppressed rebellions in three places in the country, and was invincible.

This time, the offensive of the Southern Army of Philip was thwarted, and Peter hanged more than half of his generals, and then appointed Minai to attack the Lulian theater.

After receiving the order, Mina did not set out immediately. Instead, he spent a month leisurely in the imperial capital, and it took half a month to arrive in Lulian. And in this process, Peter I, who has always been irritable and cold, did not say a word and let him do whatever he wanted. If it were someone else, even if it was delayed for a day, he would have died seventeen or eighteen times.

However, Minai did not disappoint Peter I either.

On the second day of his arrival in Lulian, he rushed to the front overnight and personally commanded the attack on Archduke Adolf. Succeeded in defeating the main force of Grand Duke Adolf and besieging it at Camel Pass in Wanshan County. At the same time, the front of the army was directed towards the city of Medin, and the Knights of the Red Leaf and the 12th Legion of the Solan Frontier Army were almost untenable.

As far as the results of the battle are concerned, Mina's achievements in one day have exceeded the achievements of those hanged generals in a year and a half. Coupled with his great reputation in the country of Feilie, even these proud soldiers on the front line, in front of him, they can only be respectful and obedient.

Mina did not let him sit down, and no one dared to sit down. Mina didn't let them speak. No one dared to speak!

In the silence, the corners of Mina's mouth hooked up into a smile, and she waved her hand to signal the gray-haired general to sit down, and said, "These few times, you have fought against Fano's Muni City Guard. What do you feel like?"

Several generals looked at each other.

Minai's appointment as the supreme commander of the Southern Theater of Operations is still a secret. All along, the battle on the front line has been in charge of a few of them. Minai, on the other hand, is only remotely controlled in the rear.

Finally, it was the gray-haired general who pondered, "Your Excellency, we have noticed that Fano's command style seems to have changed a little from before. Since the march into the Night Canyon. He was noticeably more intensive with his troops than before. The various arms are interlocked, the connection is perfect, and the timing is also very accurate, and there are few times when mistakes are made. And ......"

The gray-haired general hesitated for a moment before finding the right word, "...... His conducting style has noticeably become more ferocious. ”

Mina nodded and said lightly, "It seems." You are not yet utterly incompetent. It's not bad to be able to see that. ”

His slender fingers tapped lightly on his knee. Looking into the distance, he said in a bit of a distraction: "I can tell you that it is not Fano who is opposite us, or rather, it is not Fano who is commanding his army. It's a different person. ”

Mina's words. The generals were all surprised. The gray-haired general cautiously asked, "Your Excellency, is this ......?"

Mina shook her head and said with a slight smile: "I'm a [Civil War General], and I've never fought with outsiders, how can I know who this person is?"

The generals were embarrassed.

Because over the years. Minai's achievements were all achieved against the rebels and barbarians within the Philae Empire, so in the Empire, there were jealous people who called him a civil war general. And such remarks, in the Philip military, especially have a market. Even a few of you here have said similar things in private.

The gray-haired general, apparently unwilling to continue the discussion in front of the Marquis de Minai, asked, "Your Excellency, if we are not opposite Fano, will our plans be ......?"

"No, it won't. Minai directly interrupted him and said indifferently, "Adolf is in our encirclement, this is a dead knot. Unless they don't want to rescue Adolf. Otherwise, even if they knew it was a trap, they would have to jump down with their eyes closed. Besides, Night Canyon was not an unacceptable decisive battle location for them. As for ......"

He half-squinted his eyes and said nonchalantly, "...... For deeper things, you don't have to worry about it. As long as they jump into one trap, they can only jump into the second trap. And your mission is the battle of the Night Canyon. It will be a very difficult battle for you

The generals stood up solemnly and said in unison: "We will fight bloody battles and live up to your trust." ”

Seeing the generals leave, Mina stood up, muttered for a while, looked around at the five young men standing solemnly behind him, the blade in his eyes was gone, his eyes were soft, and he smiled: "Okay, don't pretend." ”

As soon as they heard Minai's words, the five young men laughed, and between their eyebrows, they looked like they were flying and jumping, completely losing their previous Yan sù.

They came up and surrounded Minai in the middle, and they gossiped.

"Teacher, you didn't see it, you just made a face. A blonde young man with a few freckles on his face said loudly.

"Butz, you whistleblower. Eat me a trick. A short young man next to him jumped up and threw a volley into the air.

The freckled young man laughed, violently stimulated his fighting spirit, and greeted him: "I'm not afraid of you." Die, monkey get it!"

It was a pleasure to see the five students fighting and making trouble. The two of the most bastard guys were even about to fight, Mina shook her head angrily, pointed at them and scolded, "Take Qi, Buzz, you two stop me." What a bunch of monkeys. Let people see that the five famous heroes under my command are like this, where do I put this face?"

Although it was scolding, the smile on the corner of Mina's mouth did not show a trace of anger.

However, Naqi and Buzz quickly stopped, looked at each other unconvinced, and stood honestly.

"Teacher, are you relieved to hand over the Night Canyon to them?" Among the five people, a black-haired young man who looked the most elegant and meticulously cleaned up from head to toe looked at the backs of the generals who were going away and asked.

"Don't underestimate them. In terms of execution, these generals are the pillars of the empire's ability to have such a powerful army, and the guarantee that the empire can conquer such a vast territory through guò warfare. They may not be geniuses, or even smart. But each of them, works well. And it's definitely not easy to deal with. ”

The faces of the five young men were all grim.

This is the teaching.

And Minai's teachings are the supreme truth for them. They never joke around at this time.

"Alright, forget the Night Canyon," Minai smiled and glanced at the students, "now one of the Solans has stepped into the trap I designed for them. Duke Benson's side was also very smooth. I think it's time for you to go. ”

Wujie was excited. Follow Mina to a wooden table and unfold a map. On the map, five arrows have been outlined in red ink.

Minai said: "You should have already understood the whole plan. Let me conclude by reiterating that you must complete your battle plan as quickly as possible at all costs. Occupy your respective targets. And in the process, you must not be distracted. Concentration is a must. Understood?"

"Yes!" the five said in unison.

Minai looked around at them, the smile on his face disappearing, "Remember, among the younger generation of the Empire, your fame, talents, and achievements have made many people jealous. You are known as the Five Masters of the Seven Colored Seas, and you are the best student of my Minai, and you have even been praised by His Majesty. But that's just the beginning. ”

"This is your chance. A chance to prove yourself to everyone! Use your achievements to tell those who are not convinced, whether in the land of the Empire, or in the land of Solan, you are all the ones they can only envy and look up to. No one is qualified to be your opponent. Neither before, now nor in the future. ”

Mina's voice was cold and clear, but every word he said moved the five of them.

"Understood?" Minai said.

"Yes, teacher. We take every word you say to heart. "Said respectfully.

He looked around at the other four people beside him and said, "Neither I, nor Azusen, Tieren, Buzz, and Naqi will disgrace you. We will definitely do our best in this battle. We're going to make those guys understand that no one can stop us in the Philip Empire, and there won't be any in Lulian!"

A grim smile appeared on his face: "We will crush them!"

"Go ahead!" Mina nodded.

Five black figures jumped off the silver elephant and galloped away. They passed through the marching army as fast as meteors. Faintly, the sound of their quarrel could be heard.

"Take it, I'm definitely faster than you this time. ”

"Don't brag, Bouz. There's a kind of gambling that I'll make you lose so much that you take your pants off. ”

"Bet on it, bet on what you say......

The sound faded away. A gust of wind blew across the meadow. In the long weeds, the team moved forward in silence. The long black stream stretches beyond the horizon as if it never ends. (To be continued......)
