Chapter 421: The Attacker
Helena...... This should be your name, right?"
Few human names could be remembered by Phoenix, and with the exception of those who fought in the dark at the end of the First Tide, she hadn't met anyone for the next few hundred years. She not only remembered Helena's name www.biquge.info but also her unpredictable abilities.
The world is a world away from the dark times of the past.
Helena smiled politely, "I didn't expect you to remember my name. ”
"So, where are you standing here?" said Phoenix, in a gentle tone, but there was a hint of caution in his eyes. The human beings who can be remembered by her have one common trait - extraordinary strength, at that time, almost every battle was enough to make the sky tremble, and with her energy that has been weakened several times now, she will definitely not be able to help the woman in front of her.
And she didn't want to add such a difficult enemy to the current situation of the Sith enemy.
"Well, at least now we have a common enemy. ”
"Sith?" Phoenix blurted out with a slight win.
Helena nodded noncommittally.
"So, you humans are a strange race. Phoenix placed the book on the table, which is why she had been unable to see through humans. She remembered fondly the determination of humanity at the end of the First Demon Tide to fight the same enemy, and the knights in heavy armor, even if they were not as strong as the hordes of monsters, each regarded death as if they were at home, and many of the victories in these battles were won by humans through numbers. It is true that they have finally sealed the cracks in the sky and driven the tide back to another world - but the history of humanity against the tide has come to an end.
Over the next hundred years, the surviving human race was immediately divided into two camps, divided between the two continents and pitted against each other. Since the death of the first king, Azi-Tris, even the kingdom he had created with his own hands had almost fallen apart, and his supporters were divided into several factions, and decades of infighting for the royal power ended in the victory of the Henry family, and in order to maintain the absolute dominance of the Henry regime, the other factions had little good ending.
After the end of the Demon Tide War, all the subsequent wars of humanity in Phoenix were meaningless infighting.
Fighting different factions, suppressing the rebels of the lower classes dissatisfied with the royal power, or the continuous strife between the two continents, during this time, mankind has given birth to countless strong people, and also fallen countless strong people. If the humans can unite in Phoenix, it will not be impossible to reclaim the lost kingdom of Akarando.
What's even more strange to Phoenix is that no one has even ever had such an idea.
And her first believer was a person who was willing to give up everything for the sake of power. The first thing he did when he gained power was to slaughter all the nobles in the town, and the blazing flames set the town on fire, and the people screamed incessantly, while the man fell to his knees alone and laughed among the charred corpses. Obviously not eroded by her power, the man seemed to have gone crazy.
Later, it was said that Phoenix destroyed a small town.
"Unfortunately, you are now the object of our protection. Helena's words dragged Phoenix's consciousness back to reality. None of them could have imagined that they would join forces one day.
"You guys?" Phoenix asked, confused.
For high-level monsters, this is a very sensitive word. Only monsters of the same status as her are qualified to be called "us" by her: "That boy?" Although she sensed that the young man who had just broken in was something special, she didn't expect Helena to regard him as a person of the same level.
However, during the dormant time of the Tarun Kingdom, she had heard many rumors about the other party. She has heard a lot of rumors, and there are many people who exaggerate it.
"yes. That kid sometimes reminds me of Maran Funne when I was younger. ”
- Helena, of course, referring to Maran Funne before she hooked up with Cervila.
"That's the end of the chat. A deep voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and almost at the same time as the voice sounded, a dark shadow broke through the door and stabbed Helena's vest. The attacker's timing was extremely tricky, and he keenly caught Helena's fleeting glance at the mention of Maranfuin, and suddenly attacked at this moment.
The speed of the black shadow was as fast as the wind, and Helena didn't even have time to move her steps before the black shadow pierced through her right shoulder, and a bloody arrow shot out. But the black shadow had no intention of stopping, it suddenly turned back, and quickly condensed into a half-human state, the dark green flames in the skeleton mask swayed violently, and the huge scythe in the figure's hand slashed towards Helena without the slightest drag.
Helena Murphy had heard of Helena Murphy's prowess on countless occasions, but this deceitful woman was a real hero at the end of the First Demon War. And if you want to defeat an opponent of this level, you can't give her any chance to react, even if the sneak attack is successful, you can't relax in the slightest!
However, at such a critical juncture, Helena did something that Phoenix and the attackers did not expect - she tossed the frightened grinning Jörmunge and threw it in Phoenix's direction: "Help me keep an eye on this little guy." Almost as soon as she threw Jörmungandr, the scythe was already in front of her.
The inevitable blow did not make the attacker relax in the slightest, but he frowned, and he clearly felt the weight of the scythe in his hand light. When he looked at the blade, the huge scythe turned into a silver-like liquid, and he hurriedly let go of his hand and tried to throw the scythe away. But at the same time as the sickle was released, the silver-white liquid exploded violently, and it split into countless thin arrow-like objects, like ten thousand arrows in unison for a while.
Within seconds, the half figure was smashed. In less than a few minutes, the castle fell silent again.
"Don't hide, I know your tricks. Helena said into the darkness outside the door, "I've seen all of your performances in the Inquisition. ”
She was met with more than ten seconds of silence, but eventually, a figure in a black cloak appeared in the doorway, but his trademark giant scythe was now gone.
"It deserves to be the highest combat power of the Senate. The man said meaninglessly.
"I knew Albert wouldn't give up on Spitane's affairs, but I didn't expect him to join forces with the Chaos Cult. Helena was also shocked when she saw the skeletal mask - all of the man's information was 'clean', and any of his resumes from his time in the Inquisition showed that he was an exemplary knight, which is why he was personally dressed in the golden sword and shield emblem symbolizing the honor of the Knight of the Round Table at the beginning of Henry V's reign.
The people of the Chaos Sect actually lurked inside the church early in the morning?
"It has nothing to do with Spitane's affairs, this mission is of vital importance to the Grand Prince. ”
As he spoke, the man glanced at Helena and Phoenix: "It's not a wise choice to fight you now, so ......"
Before the words fell, his whole person turned into several shadows and disappeared outside the door.
