"It's getting harder and harder...... Why are these guys chasing me so hard!!"

On a battleship flying the lone wolf flag, a figure hides in the inconspicuous part of the mainmast, and a disgraced Sieg assassinates the ship's lookout. He had kept as low a profile as he could because he was in the middle of the ocean and surrounded by enemies, but this time his plan to steal the lifeboat and gradually escape from the offshore sea was missed, because the owner of the three-masted flagship had been waiting for him under the sail for a long time, and when Sieg landed lightly on deck, the owner greeted him without hostility.

"Because you're one of the outsiders, the Dark Lich wants you and your companions to serve your sentence on Minella. ”

The unaccompanied accosting caused Sieg's displeasure, but he stilled his inner uneasiness and anger, and turned to see Finrier, the commander of the Order Army wearing a steel helmet and wearing dark gold plate armor.

"You're the one...... ...... in Istria I can't care about that much!!Let's fight it out!!"

Sieg made the first reaction of ordinary people, drawing his sword and waiting for battle. But Finreal had no intention of fighting Sieg, and instead stepped forward and pressed Sieg's left shoulder, which was enough to impress Siger.

"My name is Finreal, Finreal Magnus, the former commander of the Drua Order, the Thunderbolt of Doom, the most elite commander of the Knights of Doom, and now just a traveler who has come here for sightseeing. It's you...... This arm hides a huge amount of power, and it doesn't seem to belong to you. ”

After introducing himself, he seemed to have doubts about Sieg's left arm, and asked casually.

Seeing that the other party was not hostile, Xige also relaxed his vigilance and sighed: "I don't remember the past, this hand does have magical power...... By the way, the former Drua Order? Why do you say that?"

"To put it simply, I have no reason to serve the Druya, so I can choose to ignore the order, just as I deliberately set sail to lure you here. ”

"You know that I used the sentry hole to steal the boat to smuggle in?" Sieg was taken aback, and became vigilant again.

Fenreal made a drop anchor gesture to the lieutenant at the helm, and the flagship of the Doom Thunder Legion dropped anchor in the middle of the sea, and when the surrounding fleet dodged a way, Finreal handed a pair of oars to Sieg and pointed to the boat that was slowly lowering on the side of the ship.

"Leave here, row south for a day or so to the high seas of Nord, take a hitchhiker back to Calradia and report to the monarchs. Don't be suspicious, this is a well-intentioned assistance. ”

"Are you really going to let me go?" I would love to warn the people of the interior, but I still have my Wings of Liberty teammates and the regimental commander in mind, so I won't run away!" he rejected Finreal's offer and decided to sneak back to Minella Island to rescue his companion.

"I see...... The bond with your partner and the worry about the group have changed your mind, so let me give you a ride, because I'm also a friend of Ogst. ”

"Really? That's great, thank you so much. Sieg breathed a sigh of relief, after all, there was no chance of winning against Finreal, who had terrifying powers, but the other party had already offered to join forces, which made his nerves, which had been tense, relax his nerves, and he embarked on a voyage back to Minera Island with Fenreal.

After a day and a night of sailing, Finreal's warship approached Minella Island, and after passing the checkpoint for homing supplies, sailed into the harbor of the huge fortress, where the berth was surrounded by black armor, and Sieger managed to sneak around the harbor guards and infiltrate the Goshawk, which was held in a hidden corner of the docks, and Finreal came to meet Sieg.

"Almost, the chains that hold the Goshawk have been lifted, and you can sail away after you infiltrate the Blackeye Fortress and rescue your friends, and the patrol ships offshore will be temporarily served by Doom Thunder's fleet, and I'll let them go when the time comes. ”

"Black-eyed, the name of this fortress sounds inferior......" Sieg complained.

Finreal's words immediately dispelled Sieg's thoughts, and he emphasized: "Don't underestimate it, there are about thirty percent of the Drua Order's military strength here, intending to invade the northern continent of Calradia and block the reinforcements from Dabaran. After you sneak in, be sure to pay attention to the fact that there are not only sergeants recruited by the Order, but also a hundred Papal Guards from Drua soil, the Black Dragon Forbidden Army. ”

"Black Dragon?"

"Before the Lord of Darkness became a god, he was the embodiment of the dark dragon, and the top of the church used the black dragon as its symbol. At the time of the Holy War, the Dark Knights marched westward, while the Forbidden Army held on to the Church headquarters. Now, in order to make them useful in the invasion, the Dark Lich has used the Soul Rejuvenation Technique to bring them back to the world from the underworld. These guys wore armor made of black dragon scales, black dragon bone goggle helmets, plus ebony gauntlets, and carbon steel boots, which were very conspicuous in the unchanging black knight troops. If you do, don't fight them and run away before they react. ”

After informing him of the threat hidden in the city, Finreal left the Goshawk and returned to his ship, and when there was no way back, Sieg was a little suspicious of Finreal's help, but his obsession with his partner dispelled his doubts and he polished his sword and set out on the road to salvation.

After infiltrating the dangerous fortress, Sieg found that many barracks had been added to the fortress since he fled the island, and after sneaking into the center of the fortress without killing anyone, Sieg stumbled into a large cellar and encountered a scene that impressed him......

A pair of powerful wings flapped helplessly, their owner, a scarred wingman held in a cage by several heavy shackles, and out of compassion, Sieg did not hesitate to expose his hiding place and killed the torturer of the guarded wingman, slashing open the steel forged prison and freeing the wingman who could barely stand on two feet.

"Who are you?...... No, what ...... are you?" he looked at the winged man with green skin, purple blood on his wounds, and demonic horns, as if he had saved a rare animal.

β€œ...... Despicable humans!I'm Sylph, Lord of the Storm Shrine!Now it's time for you to pay the price for blasphemy!"

The winged man named Sylph roared and flew into the air, hovering and swooping down on Sieg, but the damage it had suffered in the prison overwhelmed it, and it lost its target and crashed into the hard ground, its six extremely ugly eyes revealing Venus at the same time.

"The knowledge of the Sky Wolf has mentioned this, the Wind Clan that inhabits the border between the Kuska steppe and the southern desert, and the Feather Demon Gundiz is the king of the clan, so who are you?" asked Sieg, rescuing the dizzy Sylph.

"Gauntiz is my twin brother! I've taken its place since it was denied its wings hundreds of years ago by lowly humans!

"Look at how you just did...... Knowing that you are weak, it is better not to think too highly of yourself. The person hundreds of years ago should be the Holy King Leon, he destroyed your king, I really don't understand why there is such a big gap between the same ancient monsters......"

Compared to the sea witch he had encountered, Sieg thought it was just boasting, so he left the arrogant Sylph and turned away.

"You ......!!! guy"

Enraged by his attitude, Sylph flapped his wings and blew a gust of wind, and as Sieg was blinded by the storm, he struck him in the back with a powerful kick, sending him flying like a kicked ball to the end of the cellar and hitting a large barrel by the wall.

"Remember this! a lowly creature who doesn't know how high or low you are!!" Sylph had crossed the gap of more than ten meters between the two sides and came to Sieg to strike the final blow.

The barrel smashed by Sieg was full of red wine, he suddenly had an idea, swept the wine all over the ground towards Sylph's head, Sylph, whose eyes were soaked in wine, braked sharply in the air, and after seizing the gap, Sig successfully slashed it with his sword, reversing the situation in the flying black feather.

"It's terrible speed! I still have the strength to do such a thing...... Doesn't this level of injury have any effect on you!?" Sieg stepped forward and restrained the manic Sylph with his blade, confined him to the ground, purple blood flowing all over the ground.

"I can't fall here to save the fellow captured Gondiz!Get out of the way, hairless ape!!"

As the blade approached Sylph's wings, Sieg threatened, "Feather Demon who thinks too highly of himself! Don't move, I want to know something from you, and if you're willing to cooperate, I'll let you do it." ”

Sylph withdrew his sharp claws in acquiescence, and Sieg asked, "Why are you guys who should have been forgotten by the world come to the hands of the Druas, is it just to get the Wind Elemental Gem?"

"Hundreds of years ago, your human heroes were able to regain their wings by enshrined the gems refined by the Wings of Gondez in the Altar of Storms. Now, these dark-worshipping Charlonae have taken over the Altar of Storms, slaughtered the few remaining Children of the Wind, and are looking for a way to turn the wings of Gaddiz back into gems, and have now found ......"

"What's that?" asked Sieg.

"Alchemy, but it's not the trick of those herbalists now, it's the unique knowledge of the heretical alchemist clan that originated from ancient times, and there are also people who are proficient in this kind of magic, and the effect can be reversed by casting the same spell, I'm going to stop that black-robed man, get out of the way now!!"

After explaining, Sylph flicked away the Sirius knife with a slam of his claws, and instantly escaped from under Sieg's knife, and when Sieg prepared to pursue, only the black feathers that kept falling were left beside him, and Sylf had already left the cellar.

"This guy is very strong, it seems that I underestimated it. I hope it can really make a mess of this place, and that will help me in my prison robbery operation!...... I'm sorry, you misheard......"

As Sieg was proud of his expectations, he was surrounded by more than a dozen sergeants of the Order who had entered the cellar to patrol the cellar, unable to avoid the battle.

"Say goodnight to yourself!

The flaming blade sliced through the bodies of a dozen chainmail sergeants, ending everything in an instant......

After slaying down the enemy soldiers in his way, Sieg quickly left the cellar and managed to infiltrate the huge prison in the western part of the fortress, taking advantage of the gap between the hundreds of snipers in the fortress who were busy dealing with Sylph in the air.

"The Witch King has changed his mind?"

"It is said that the kid who slipped away last time has sneaked back again, so to avoid trouble, we just need to send the girl to the altar through the underground tunnel. ”

The two guards in the dungeon were chatting energetically, but Sieg, who had already backstabbed all the guards along the way, came behind them, and the sharp wolf easily removed the heads of the two.

"The head of the regiment is a sacrifice of the ceremony, then I have to hurry!"

Realizing that time was running out, Sieg continued to run on the corpse, all the way to the cell where his friends had been held, he knew that he could not stop the ritual alone, and once he rescued his friend, he would be greatly helped by the agility of Tea, the strength of Nabal, the special abilities of the mirror, the assassination skills of Melva, and the peerless martial arts of Longchen.

After a quarter of an hour, he finally cut down the last Drua warrior in the upper dungeon, and used the key he captured to open the floodgates of a nearby prison, freeing some of the long-imprisoned prisoners, and in return, Sieg decided to ask them about his companion's whereabouts.

"Sir, I need to know the location of a squad of prisoners, ...... among them"

He tried desperately to explain to the other party what his companions looked like, and after some thought, the other party replied, and stopped Sig who was about to leave.

"Comrade-in-arms, thank you for the rescue, we owe you a favor. The people of Gronya have always been gracious, tell me what we can do for you?"

"Are you soldiers from that water city?"

The prisoners picked up the weapons of the dead Drua guards, and a dozen or so people lined up in a neat formation in the aisle, and the leader said: "Yes, these bastards attacked our warships on standby in the Western Sea, and we thought that we would not be captured by them even if we were killed in the belly of a fish, but now that we have regained our freedom, we must wash away the defeats of the past!"

"I see, I need you to keep the soldiers coming in for me as I go deeper into the dungeon, and although it is dangerous, the narrow terrain of the prison can still be very effective in holding them back. Listen, you can drag on as long as you can without being killed or injured, and if the situation is not right, run away quickly, and leave me alone!"

After giving orders to these GroΓ±a navy, Sig opened the entrance to the lower level of the dungeon, and soon after entering the lower level, Sig noticed a fierce battle on the upper level, and the Gronya soldiers bought Sig time to dive into the lower level with their lives.
