When Elizabeth came out again, she changed into an old leather armor and hung a short sword from her waist. The equipment is of ordinary shape and good maintenance, but there is noticeable wear and tear in many places. She didn't know what potion she used, her fair and lustrous skin turned wheat-colored, and at first glance, she looked like an ordinary young mercenary.

Solaravin glanced at it, nodded and teased, "Yes, makeup skills are getting more and more proficient." ”

Elizabeth rolled her eyes, knowing that the golden paladin brother was laughing at herself for trying to escape, and secretly wondering how to quickly disguise.

"Can I go?" she asked, a little embarrassed.

Solarivin was about to speak, but his ears moved, and his eyes turned to the door of the church. The two well-trained paladins immediately walked out of the church, and it wasn't long before they hurried back, holding a panting young guard in their hands.

"My lord, Baron Boltke's lord's manor is suspected of having an evil awakening. The paladin put down the young guard and said solemnly.

The silent church was in an uproar, and Elizabeth's eyes lit up, holding the hilt of her bronze sword, and she exclaimed excitedly, "The wicked one...... Where's the wizard, where is it? I'm going to slay the evil!"

Princess Frederick jumped up and down, eager to set off to destroy the newly awakened evildoer, but no one paid attention to her.

The divine grace sent to the door could not have the turn of a princess who was not yet a paladin.

Bishop Dist pointed to the green-faced guard and instructed the priest stationed in Shuitao Town: "Ask clearly, and then hold a demon identification ceremony, don't be mistaken......."

The priest-in-residence understood, and the first question he asked was: "Little Crewe, did the Baroness ask you to come to the church for help?"

Without thinking, the young guard said, "Yes, Master Father McCann...... Just now, there was a loud noise from outside the lord's manor, the sound was very strange, and the direction would change, my wife and the manor guards searched around but couldn't find the source of the sound, so they sent me to report to the church that there might be evil people near the manor. ”

The resident priest was quite satisfied, it was the Church's duty to capture wizards, but the cost of holding a demon detection ceremony was expensive, and it cost thousands of gold soles worth of holy power crystals. Since the capture of the wizard was a request made by the Baroness, if the demon-appreciating ceremony showed that there were no wizards nearby, the cost would naturally fall on Baron Bortok.

Fortunately, Baron Bortec and his elite soldiers followed King Friedrich on his expedition and did not return from the Sidon Khanate. The Baroness had no one available, so she sent a flute to report the news. If you change to a seasoned vassal cavalry, you will definitely not fall into the verbal trap of the stationed priest.

"Your Excellency, what do you see?" said the resident priest with a smile, to Bishop Dister.

Diser said gracefully: "Prepare the Holy Power Crystal, and I will personally preside over the demon identification ceremony." ”

The priest asked the church attendant to take out the five holy power crystals and put them in the slot of the holy light altar, Diser stepped forward and knelt in front of the holy light, silently reciting the ritual prayer, the white and golden light mist overflowed from his body, and the five white crystals full of holy light quickly glowed red.

Is there really a wizard?!

The clergy became serious, and Elizabeth clenched the hilt of her sword, pursed her lips, and stared straight at the red-lit altar.

When the red light gradually faded, Pastor Dist stood up, turned around and said solemnly: "The Lord has given me a revelation, there is an evil .......man nearby, about 25 years old, level 2 witchcraft, ability is voice, short brown hair, gray-green eyes, thin body, wearing a thick linen robe, woodcutter dress, located in the woods 16 kilometers away from the church, northeast, and is currently fleeing to the east of the mountain forest. ”

Elizabeth jumped out impatiently and gave the order: "Prepare three squads of paladins, and we will go to capture the evildoers." ”

"A 25-year-old level 2 wizard, the evil one is by no means just awakened, he is already an adult...... So is he a local or an outsider?"

"Regardless of his identity, the lord of this place has asked the church for help, then we must capture him. ”

"It's our duty to capture the devil's offspring, but the problem is that we're not familiar with the terrain and need a guide from the church. ”

"The wizard has been exposed, and he can't run far......"

The ruling warriors and paladins gathered and talked about it, ignoring Princess Frederick's orders.

Elizabeth's face fell, and she immediately wanted to squeeze in to participate in the discussion, but someone grabbed her arm and pulled her out, it was Sola Rivan Paladin.

It's so unbelievable, I really thought this was the Grand Diocese of the Sassanian Empire...... Solarivan pressed Elizabeth to his side, coughed lightly, and said to the priest stationed there, "Pastor McCann, this is your parish, and there are evil people active now, do you need our help to arrest them?" Or, report to the superior bishop and ask him to send a paladin to arrest him. ”

The lord and the army didn't return, and neither did the paladin squad in Shuitao Town. If the evil one has just awakened and is still an underage child, Father McCann can easily catch the other party by sending a few random people. However, the demon-discerning ritual revealed that the wizard was not only an adult, but also reached the level of Level 2 witchcraft. This shows that he knows how to hide and has also exercised his own abilities. With the existing holy warriors in Shuitao Town, it may be difficult to capture him.

However, the entire kingdom of Duoduo belonged to the diocese of Patriarch Tamor, and the Knights of Radiance were just passing through Shuitao Town, where they captured the wizard, received divine grace, patted their butts and walked away. The superior bishop will only reproach the church of Shuitao for its dereliction of duty.

Divine grace can be abandoned, the dominance of the diocese must not be lost, and the position of the butt must not be crooked.

The Golden Paladin politely asked for help, and Father McCann immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Please ask His Highness Testil and Bishop Diser to help capture the evildoers in Shuitao Town." I personally took a few people as guides to assist the two adults. ”

Solarivin and Diser looked at each other and smiled, then turned to a silver paladin in the armor of the Inquisition and said, "Berto, you can lead two paladin squads on a trip." ”

Berto Trigovar nodded, beckoning his men to go out and capture the wizard.

Elizabeth looked at the young paladins in the team and followed Berto out of the church with an excited expression, and hurriedly asked, "What about me......?

"You?" Sola Riven teased, dragging his sister, who was younger than his daughter, "Aren't you going to go to the Mercenary Tavern?"

Elizabeth stammered, fluttering her arms and freeing herself from Solar Raven's hand, and hurried towards the church room.

"I'm not interested! I'm going to sleep, don't disturb me!"

Bumping into a wizard is just a small episode, and Berto leads more than 50 clerics to capture a level 2 wild wizard, which can be said to be foolproof. Elizabeth sulked and ran back to her room to sleep, which was a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning. Solariven and Diser arrive in the clergy's lounge of the church and discuss with each other which clergy should be given to the priest for the purification of the wizard.

While they were waiting for the results of the operation, one of the referee warriors in charge of protecting Bishop Dist ran into the lounge and reported with a calm expression: "The situation has changed, the lord's manor has been attacked by wizards, a group of evil puppet monsters have invaded the inside of the manor, Baroness Bolttek is organizing militia resistance, she sent someone to send her young son and young daughter to the castle of Shuitao Town, ask for help from the church, and ask to ring the alarm bell!"

Bishop Dist instantly changed color, stood up abruptly, and asked, "Wizards are attacking the lord's manor here, and what about Bertol and Pastor McCann, where are they now?"

“...... I don't know," the ruling warrior shook his head and said, "Lord Berto should still be chasing the previous wizard in the mountains and forests......"

"The wizard who escaped could not be the wizard who attacked the lord. The demon detection ritual just now showed that the wizard was first near the lord's manor, and then fled to the east side of the mountain forest, with the strength and speed of a 25-year-old young man, he should have run 10 kilometers away from the lord's manor at this time, and it was impossible for a level 2 wizard to have such a long spell casting distance. Solarivin Testier said, shaking his head, and added, "Besides, if he was a wizard attacking the lord's manor, Berto would have already done something with him, and the Baroness would not be in a hurry to ask us for help." ”

"Your Highness said yes. Bishop Dist calmed down and asked the Judgment Warrior, "What kind of evil puppets, and how many are there?"

"According to the old butler who escorted the baron's young sons and daughters, it was a group of puppets made of dirt and rock, which could not be killed with weapons, and there were probably two or three hundred of them. The referee replied.

"Don't ring the alarm bells, release the church letter crows, and send a small group of paladin scouts to split into two ways, one to find the Berto Trigovar brothers and ask them to support the lord's manor, and the other to go directly to the lord's manor and let the baroness withdraw to Shuitao Town. Bishop Dist ordered.

When the ruling warrior left, he explained to Solariving, "The Earth Elemental Activation Sorcery is now confirmed...... This type of golem moves relatively slowly, and the Baroness can send her young sons and daughters out, and she can get out of battle whenever she wants to. It is nothing more than allowing wizards to destroy the historic lord's estate of the Bortec family...... As for the more than two hundred puppets, hehe, performing this level of witchcraft, the wizard is not ordinarily powerful...... Oh, Baroness Bostok may have exaggerated the numbers. ”

Bishop Dist smiled disapprovingly, and said with a sinking face: "In any case, the wizard openly attacked the lord, and we can't stand by and let the Trigovar brothers find out the situation before making a decision. ”

The lord was attacked by a sorcerer, either because of a personal vendetta or for another reason. If there is a personal vendetta against the lord, it must be a wild wizard who does not know everything, they are generally weak, do not know reverence, and often act alone. Since there are two wizards here cooperating with each other, the possibility of the wild wizards seeking revenge from the lord is slim to none.

And the wizarding organization is in the hands of the church and the secular lords, even if they want to deal with the Bostok family, they will not choose the time period when Princess Elizabeth will stay in Shuitao Town.

The only possibility is that they are coming for Elizabeth Frederick.

As a knightess, Baroness Bostok must have understood the truth, and she did not want to be burned to the ground, and was hated by the Barcelius family, so she simply followed the normal procedure to ask for help from the church, instead of leading the guards of the manor back to Shuitao Town to avoid danger.

As for the Barcelius family, who dared to make trouble in the Barony of Bostok, King Friedrich and the Duke of Kinriquez would later ask them for an explanation.

Solarivin Testy nodded slightly and said, "Okay, we'll wait for news at the church." ”

Bishop Dist thought for a moment and said, "I'll go and hold another demon inspection ceremony, and arrange the vigilance by the way." ”

The church of Shuitao Town was loose outside and tightened inside, another silver female paladin and battle priest guarded Elizabeth in the living room, Bishop Dist finished the second demon identification ceremony, his face became extremely ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "The legendary ....... earth element activates witchcraft, the specific situation of the wizard is unknown, and the location is in the lord's manor." ”

"How could there be a Legendary-level wizard?" asked Solariven's eyes with a blue light in his eyes, and his expression was cautious and confused.

He didn't believe that the Barcelius family had a legendary-level wizard, and there were no shadow priests of this level in the Inquisition, even if the Baselius family had such a wizard, they would not hesitate to sacrifice a legendary-level transcendent for the throne?

Killing Elizabeth, they thought they could restore the Iron Mountain Empire, it was a pipe dream! Orokshia and Uryon wouldn't be so stupid.

Dister looked around and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness Tystier, we may have overlooked one thing...... Whisperers. ”

Solarivin finally changed color, gritted his teeth and said, "Devil?"

"Hmm. Diser nodded and said, "Legendary-level wizards, we have never met ...... Unless he was seduced by the Whisperer and learned the natural sorcery, and the Bortock family had what he wanted in his estate. ”

Solariven's eyes flickered, and after thinking for a moment, he picked up the Mithril Warbow and said, "I'll go and see it alone, you can protect Elizabeth, and if necessary, you can go to the lord's castle to take refuge." ”

The lord's manor was more than ten kilometers away from Shuitao Town, and Solarivan quickly arrived at the scene, and he did not rush to join the battle, but calmly observed the situation.

The manor was in shambles, with collapsed trees and houses everywhere, and dozens of paladins who had captured the wizard were already fighting their enemies. Their opponents are a group of golems made of dirt, rock, and black gum.

Humanoid, about 1.5 meters tall, the black gelatinous tendons wriggled like snakes, connecting the hard rocks into thick armor, filling the crevices with dirt, and giving birth to blunt-tipped stone swords at the end of their arms, launching fierce attacks on the surrounding paladins.

They were so powerful that their stone swords smashed into the fence and sawdust flew sideways. Solariven had no doubt that if a paladin was hit by a puppet, he would take a lot of blunt damage even if he had the protection of the Holy Helmet. Fortunately, the attack methods of these earth elemental puppets are dull and simple, and their movement speed is only a little faster than that of ordinary people, and they can't beat the holy warriors with superb martial arts skills at all.

However, the dirt golems seem to be completely immune to normal damage, and even if the paladins and manor guards beat them into a puddle of mud, the black gel can absorb dirt and rock, and recover, and the dirt they absorb is still transforming into rock.

These puppets have no weaknesses, and ordinary people can't kill them at all!

However, the Paladin's holy sword skills can cut off vinyl, and despite their efforts to converge, the golem will still be ineffective if it is broken up several times in a row.

The problem is that the broken vinyl keeps swimming towards the center of the battlefield. There's a giant golem that's more than four meters tall and can smash a hole into the ground with a single punch, even more violent than the Ogre Overseers!

Berto Trigovar jumped on top of the giant golem, deftly avoiding the vinyl tentacles sticking out of the cracks in the stone, and the yellow Mithril sword shattered the giant golem's head. However, the golem soon grew a rudimentary shape of a head, and it absorbed the crawling vinyl, becoming larger and larger, the outstretched tentacles became thicker, and the earth transformed into rock faster and faster, and even crystallized.

It's no wonder that the two paladin squads have nothing to do with them, no one dares to step on or get close to the black gel on the ground, if they get entangled in the black glue, the giant puppet can come over and smash him into flesh with a single punch. This is evidenced by the dark red dirt and leather armor fragments in the two pits.

The Priest's Holy Fire technique also had no effect on the giant golems, and Solariven discovered that the two Battle Priests and the Resident Priest McCann were being chased around by the puppets.

This is strange to Solariving, the puppets of the legendary wizards only target paladins, paladins, and clerics, and the manor's militia hammer them and they don't pay attention.

If the wizard behind the puppet wants to take something from the manor, with the power of the giant puppet, no one can stop it. And if the wizard has a personal vendetta with the Bortok family, his puppet has no reason to chase after the clergy and ignore the baroness and the manor guards.

Assuming that this was a trap set by the Barcelius family, they underestimated the wisdom of Solarivin and Dister. There are also more than 100 paladins in the church, led by a level 5 priest, four adjudicators, and a silver-tier paladin who work together to keep Princess Elizabeth safe.

How many legendary wizards can the Barcelius family have? Could it be that Orokshia dares to openly attack the church in Shuitao Town?

Regardless, the legendary wizard was powerful, but in Solar's eyes, he was already a dead man.

Strange abilities and physical weakness are common traits of wizards, and no matter how difficult the giant golem is to deal with, Solariven can simply kill the wizard who casts the spell behind his back. In fact, the legendary wizard's energy also has a limit, his puppet is too clumsy to deal with the paladin, the battle continues to stalemate, and the legendary wizard can only retreat.

Solariven didn't want to stall, he was worried that this was a trap for the enemy to divert the tiger from the mountain, and he had to rush back to the church in Shuitao Town as soon as possible to quickly deal with the wizard hiding nearby.

The golden-tiered Tempest Paladin circled around the outer perimeter of the Lord's Manor while using Elemental Sense to probe the location of the wizard. The semi-elemental high-level knights are immune to most psychic sorcery, and the high-level paladin's ability to resist psychic sorcery is even better, almost immune.

Except for spiritual sorcery, the wizard's other means can't defeat the high-level paladins who are physically and mentally integrated, such as this giant puppet, which is so powerful that the solid limestone castle can be toppled by it, but it has no way to take the silver paladin on its body.

Having found the caster, it will not be more difficult for Solariven to kill him than it is to kill a chicken.

However, he turned around several times, expanding his search range to 30 kilometers, but still failed to perceive the fire elemental disturbance when the wizard cast the spell.

"Damn, you've been tricked!"

Solariven turned around and ran towards the Lord's Manor, charging directly at the giant puppet, shouting, "Bertol, come down!"

The paladin of the Inquisition suddenly jumped down from the puppet's shoulder, slashed a white-gold sword light in the air, cut off the rolled vinyl tentacles, fell to the ground and shouted: "Your Highness, be careful, this puppet has a deceleration force field with a diameter of more than 30 meters, I can fight against the force field, you can't!"

An indigo streamer struck the giant golem's chest, and the wind howled, sending large chunks of rock and dirt bursting in all directions. Solariven held the Mithril Warbow and shot another arrow, and said coldly, "Evil one, see how many arrows you can withstand me." ”

The vinyl squirmed, the stone and dirt structure twisted, and the giant golem faced Solariven motionlessly. It was still huge, the vinyl tentacles on its shoulders tangled and fused into heads, and its voice rumbled, "Vicious jackals and lackeys, hypocritical sinners, why don't you go back to Shuitao Town, where my companion has already put that damned bishopric priest on a stake?"

Unmoved, Solarivin said, "Dig you out of the stinking mud, and I'll go back." ”

"Then try and see if you dig me out, or if I crush you filthy and vicious bugs one by one!"

The giant golem roared with its head up, black and red witchcraft runes intertwined, and the little golems gave up their pursuit and turned to run towards the giant golem.

"Intercept as much as you can, don't let him retract his strength!"

The battle heats up in an instant, with the clergy and the manor guards desperately trying to smash the small golems that are only interested in moving, delaying the speed at which the black gum converges with the giant golems. Solar Raven shot out indigo streamers, sharp void wind elements cut through the body of the giant puppet, and the tough vinyl that was difficult to cut even with a sword kept breaking, and kept melting into the puppet's body.

"Boom!"

A powerful wave emanated from the feet of the giant golem, causing the earth to roll up, trees and flowers to collapse, stone walls to crack, paladins to stagger, and ordinary manor guards mostly vomiting blood and falling to the ground, unable to get up for half a day.

The giant golem strode out of the manor without turning around, ignoring even the small golem vinyl that had gathered towards it.

"He's going to escape!, Your Highness, keep attacking, don't worry about me!"

Unscathed, the Silver Paladin chased the giant golem and attacked, the light of the holy sword swordsmanship staggering and undulating, slashing at its legs, severing rocks and vinyl tentacles. The Tempest Paladin's arrows glowed indigo, striking its shoulders and back, and the Void Wind elemental cut deep marks, sending stones and dirt to fall.

The puppet was too large for the destruction caused by the two high-ranking paladins to destroy it for a while. Fearing the puppet's deceleration field and strong tentacles, the paladins and young paladins stopped their pursuit and dispatched their men to deal with the puppets behind them and rescue the injured manor guards. The two Battle Priests, protected by several paladins, chased after the golems, providing magical support to the high-ranking paladins, and when they dug the wizard out of the puppet's body, the priest's sacred fire skills could come in handy.

The wizard's giant golem was resilient and able to draw dirt from the ground to replenish its body, and Solariven and Berto pursued it for several kilometers before finally destroying it once and for all.

The stones and dirt disintegrated and fell, and the black gelatinous mass of a sinewed python lost its vitality and turned into black soft mud, revealing a crystalline humanoid object.

"I feel the grace of my lord...... But such a powerful wizard died like this?" Berto Trigoval said in disbelief as he dragged the crystals out of the black mud.

"The transition uses witchcraft powers, and the body is completely elementalized. Solarivin grimaced, looking at the crystalline remains.

Far from being a wild wizard who knows nothing, he is professionally trained in witchcraft and has the ability to sweep across the battlefield and destroy fortresses and castles. It was only when he encountered a high-level paladin who was agile and attacked powerful, and there was no auxiliary force around him, so he was restrained to death.

This is simply sending to death!

How could the Barcelius family sacrifice such precious transcendent power? Could it really be the Whisperer who made them insane?

"What about the wizard you hunted down earlier?" Solarivin asked.

Berto replied: "Chased to the cliff, he fled...... When I received a summons from the Crow, I led people to support the lord's manor, and I didn't have time to hunt down the wizard. ”

Solarivan withdrew his gaze from the cracked ground, looked at the sun's setting in the west, and said with a heavy heart: "I'll go back to Shuitao Town first, and you guys should come over quickly." ”
