Countless sound units exploded in an instant, and the sound waves that exceeded the hearing limit of the human ear smoothed out the deep ravines of the ground, and the fine particles of earth filled the scars of the earth.

Ulysses gasped sharply, and just in time he picked up Gregory, who had been cut all over by the gray feathers, with the tip of his spear. The Knight Captain of the Earth Knights was seriously injured so lightly, even if he had a fifth-level strength memory, it was impossible for him to deal with such a fourth-level high-level opponent so lightly. What's more, the energy released by that gray storm had already exceeded the limit of the force equivalent that an ordinary level 4 powerhouse could mobilize.

Lilin, who was bleeding from her arm, stared at her brother tightly, her hands unwilling to give up the condensation of fire's spiritual power, and the air twisted rapidly around her. Southhart, on the other hand, was much calmer and composed, standing on a high place with his hands behind his back and his head slightly raised to look down on his sister, and faint blue lightning flashed abruptly at his side from time to time.

"You're a traitor. He whispered coldly to Lilin.

"I have betrayed the Holy Land, and betrayed you, who are the first minds of the Holy Land, Nanhart! However, I have never betrayed my home!" Lilin said sharply, "Now that Siu's power can initially transmit the seal and resonate with Orka's power, I am afraid that your power will no longer be of any use to her now—after the return of the Demon Emperor and the final adjustment of the elemental balance of the world, I will let you slaughter her." ”

"Fools who don't know how to take care of the big picture. Nanhart's voice had been lowered to absolute zero, and it was difficult to continue to be cold, "You're not my sister. Get out of here, don't let me see you. ”

With that, he turned around coldly. But at this moment, the sword of the Thousand Wings Slash flashed again. The speed was beyond everyone's comprehension, and the sharpness began on Nanhart's forehead and fell in a straight line. The symmetrical axis that overlaps the face creates a thin line of blood. But Orka simply cut through Nanhart's skin, and didn't mean to hurt Nanhart.

He looked at the blood dripping from his palms in horror, and looked up at Orka, who was staring at him with even more cold contempt than he had looked at Lilin.

"It's because you're not of our clan that Orka won't kill you. Hopefully, you can understand why Orca did this. ”

Her long, cloak-like silver hair fluttered behind her head, and Sweeney, who looked down with her in her arms, shimmered with a gray light that fluctuated like a heartbeat. There were no strong elemental fluctuations anymore, and in the fluctuating field that she radiated, what they felt was the oppression and arrogance released from the essence of life.

The edges of Orka blurred before dissolving into a pure gray mist that vanished above them.

Nanhart didn't heal his wounds at all. He glanced back at Lilin one last time, wiped the blood from his face, and flew in the other direction with lightning speed.

"Or ...... Is it still like this...... Now that she has the Seal Stone, she can deprive her soul of purification without any scruples and finally break the third seal—we still haven't delayed this process after all...... Gregory, let's focus on the task at hand, and forget about everything that happened today. ”

The head of the Gregorian Knights, who was hanging beside Ulysses, nodded dilliantly, and the powerhouses belonging to the Earth Temple, who were standing around like wax figures, suddenly retracted and put back their faint encirclement of the Flying Flower Courtyard and the Cross Brigade.

"This one. We made a note of it, the Earth Temple. Xue Qingji hugged Xue Ji, who was already unconscious, and said coldly before leaving. At the other end, the head of the Cross Brigade did not lead by example, although the other brigade commanders looked angry. But under the gloomy gaze of the brigade commander under the hood, no one dared to complain after all.

When the two rows of crimson and pure ink power departed in completely opposite directions, a little abrupt figure froze in the space that began to be empty.

"Xia Qi, you already belong to the Flying Flower Courtyard after this battle. So I have no authority over you, but don't be overly arrogant!" Savassi suddenly said angrily.

The melee mage Swift Xia Qi, who majored in melee combat, didn't bother with Savassi at all. She looked at Xue Qingji, who was not much older than herself, and said in a straightforward tone, "My mother is fine, right?"

"It's not my business to do this little thing. Xue Qingchen was slightly angry, after all, as the second lady of Feihua Academy. It's been a long time since anyone dared to speak to him in such a tone.

"Then I'll take a few days off first, and I will definitely report at Feihuayuan before July 30. Of course, you don't have to worry, Miss, after all, I was born in the Flying Flower Academy, and even though I have served for the Cross Brigade, I am still a member of the Flying Flower Academy. ”

This sentence finally slowed Xue Qingji's expression slightly, she nodded very slightly in agreement, and then with a wave of her hand, she hugged Xue Ji and led the cutting-edge forces of the surrounding Cross Brigade out of this destroyed battlefield.

Finally, at this level, I was able to see clearly and descended to calm.

The folding of space forms a small enclosed four-dimensional curve between the foothills in the distance. With the three-dimensional photons that do not exist in the original world suddenly fall into the gap of the fourth dimension, the original laws of optics and physics suddenly seem too narrow. As a result, phenomena that cannot be understood, such as monochromatic light being dispersed into many visible and invisible electromagnetic waves.

The blazing fluctuating energy suddenly distorted the air in front of them, covering up the most essential spatial distortion.

The fluctuating energy slowed down, and the twisted hot air subsided, but its temperature still evaporated the thick permafrost glacier around it, revealing the asphalt-colored rock that had melted and solidified.

The four-position spatial rift emitted a low humming sound in the air like a taut spring restoration, and with the gradual subsidence of such a dizzying sound, the two people who were covered by space finally revealed their bodies in three-dimensional space, and the spatial contest finally calmed down.

"Still a little bit inferior, Sheila. The Phantom lifted his distinctive raven's beak-shaped hard-brimmed hat, still showing not a single detail of his features, and lifted his ornate beaded cane forward slightly, pointing at Sheila across the half-solidified lava.

In the center of the blue-gold eyeshadow, a narrow yellow light pierced through the soft feathered gap on her shoulder. Following the incredible path of light, a clear trail was left in the space. Touch the strange particles that loom around the phantom.

So she exhaled deeply, and stretched an exaggerated lazy waist without any grace. Bright red wavy curls shook like clouds, spreading out clumps of fiery fire elementals.

The staff was haphazardly inserted into the jelly-like lava, and Sheila squinted at the phantom:

"That's the truth, I didn't expect you to make progress in such a short period of time...... You did win—but if you were to take the Seal Stone from Orka right now, you wouldn't be able to do it with me. ”

"I didn't do my best. The phantom held the sun-like card in his hand, "Up to 50% strength-"

"Even in the battle in the master's main hall back then, you only used fifty percent of your strength...... I can't help but ask you why you do it again. Sheila gave the phantom a seductive expression.

“......”

"If you don't say it, forget it...... I don't have the ability to force you to say it. Sheila's tone apparently shifted the subject, "Back to the Seal Stone, it doesn't matter if it's in Orka's place for now." Whatever she wants, as long as the Seal Stone is finally destroyed, my mission will be accomplished—I will have to be her bodyguard for a few more months, and if it weren't for your constant trouble, my life would have been so clean...... Person...... Ah......h

"You're from the 'Mirror' organization, aren't you?" said the phantom suddenly, not feeling the change in emotion from his tone, let alone the change in his expression.

"Huh?"

"You are the man of the 'mirror'. This time his voice became conclusive.

"Yes. Sheila simply raised her head and admitted, "I'm here to free our master from the seal." The Builders of the New World, the Destroyers of the Old Worlds—and the Mirrors of the Men you call the Dark Mages. Even if you don't know our names, you'll be able to guess our teachings. ”

"What an unexpected bonus. The phantom smiled lightly, and the cards in his hand turned. The bright sunlight card instantly switched to a moonlight card that emitted a soft blue-green light, "At least from my point of view, it confirmed the true existence of 'Mirror'." You-oh. I'm sure you won't be able to say that. ”

Sheila deliberately smiled mysteriously at him and pulled out her staff. Point to the distant sky.

"Tell me a fact that you have been flocking to: five hundred years ago, on that day, whether it was the betrayal of the demons. Fried's surprise attack, the collapse of the legion was in fact - all in the master's deduction, including, of course, the fact that he was sealed. Want to know why?" Sheila casually took a few random steps, standing directly side by side with the Phantom.

The apparition paused for a slight moment.

"I want to hear about it. ”

"A few days ago, one of the creators of Osiria, the great land god Erin, once again issued an oracle to the earth temple after 10,000 years: deprive all citizens of the Grivar Empire of the right to life, without exception. ”

Apparently the Phantom didn't know much about the oracle and couldn't see the expression under his raven mask, but it must have been a slightly confused face.

"Do you know who ordered this oracle?" said Sheila, grabbing the Phantom's shoulders and leaning into the shadows under the brim of his hat, "it's us." ”

"What did you say?"

"The oracle of the Lord of the earth was made by us, the 'mirror'. ”

The Phantom didn't push away Sheila, who was almost wrapped around him, and looked down slightly at his hands in white gloves.

"I don't know, hahaha!" Sheila left the phantom's body like a snake, squinting at the sun in the sky with contemptuous eyes, "I can't imagine that the strange thief phantom who claims to be able to steal a qiē will also have something that he doesn't know!

"How did you do that?!" there was a hint of anger in the phantom's calm voice, "The oracle that can hide the soul perspective of the Earth Temple's group of sincere people is something you can't do without the power of the Overseer...... Are you really—"

"—overestimating us, young master phantom......" Sheila's weak and boneless waist twisted slightly, and a pair of white arms climbed up the phantom's neck again, "Go back to the beginning and think about it, why did my master choose to be sealed? If they don't do something, there will be no way to get it back! The gods who have already melted into the laws of the world and are unable to intervene directly in the world. With the original life existence at the beginning of the creation of the world, they have come to this era in the form of reincarnation that penetrates fate. And these things have already been told to us by the Master, so we have the ability to allow the reincarnated angels, and even the power of the second generation of life, to be inherited from among the people we have chosen. Those partners who have the majesty of the divine throne will be the most powerful help after the master breaks the seal. Little things like me, in that rabble army of darkness. I have no choice but to take a back seat!"

The Phantom understood these cold realities deeply, and the promise he had once sworn allegiance to seemed to be getting farther and farther away from being fulfilled...... How long can I protect the world she loves?

Although those ancient life forms attached to the new consciousness of the present generation could allow them to gain power beyond ordinary fifth-level powerhouses, after all, they could not surpass the power of transcendents determined by the law. In other words, they have reincarnated angels and primordial lifeforms as hole cards, and we also have plans supported by transcendent powers-

- The future of fate is not absolute darkness......

"What you're talking about is not just the truth. Phantom's cards switched again. This card does not have the bright light of the Sunshine card and the Moonlight card, but only a non-reflective pattern, a balance with a few simple strokes.

"Did you use the 'Balance Card'? Sacrifice the natal card, it looks like you're threatening me?" Sheila smiled and sighed as she broke away from the phantom's body. Grabbing his staff, he kept a distance from him, "If he was standing here in Fried, he should have figured it out at this moment." ”

"Fried Modist......" The apparition recalls a name that makes him feel mysterious. "Please borrow Fried's mind for a moment, so I guess. Not every single rebirth and angel that you predicted was in your plan? Falling on someone you would never choose?"

Sheila smiled, noncommittal.

"Looks like I'm going to be a bodyguard too. The phantom stretched out his breath, and the bright stars covered his whole body in an instant, "So I really can't help it, and I use all my strength that I don't know like never before, to see if I can kill you in a few moves." ”

The Necromantic Sovereign's smile slowly stiffened, eventually disappearing.

"The gap between us is really huge, I've admitted it. Sheila replied in a cold tone, "But look back, Ben Leon is probably watching us, he is a stone-like fellow with no interest, but he will not let me be killed by you." ”

"Just finish it before he comes. ”

As the Phantom spoke, another card appeared in his left hand, and again, the card did not emit any light, and on it, there was also a faint pattern: two small black and white snakes, biting each other's tails, forming a circle.

"'Cycle Secret Card'. Sheila gritted her teeth slightly and whispered, the scepter in her hand clenched, and a trace of purple-black aura seeped out from under her feet, dyeing the white ice a strange purple. At the same time, crystals of the death elemental condensed began to cling upwards along her exposed legs.

The third chapter card also gradually appeared in front of the phantom, but this time before the pattern could be seen clearly, the phantom and Sheila froze at the same time, and stopped their respective actions.

In the air not far away, there seemed to be a holy feather disappearing.

“...... Purity beyond the earthly world, purification in the blazing heat—the Seraphic Addition Leaf ......," the apparition muttered.

The crimson robe faintly showed its outline in the sky, and the air was scorched to a blazing red. A brilliant red light that seemed to be projected in another space drew an arc and surrounded the two of them.

"You're here, three. ”

"Three?" the phantom whispered to himself.

"Looks like you're in some trouble...... But why don't you use that power? Otherwise, you might really be purified. The illusory voice seemed to tremble in a slight thunderclap.

"How could I do such an unprioritized thing as the master would need it, but I should indeed say thank you for being here. ”

The six-winged red-clothed angel looked at the phantom with an illusory gaze, and the phantom couldn't read his expression clearly.

"Oh...... Back then, I still heard—I mentioned you. Don't get in the way of Sheila this time, how. ”

The Phantom immediately realized the difference in strength, and he immediately decided to give up when he faced an opponent like him who was not clear at all, and Sheila who was constantly gaining momentum around him.

The three cards slowly dissipate.

"I really have a reluctant guess, guys. "The one of the most twinkling of the Seraphs, the Morning Star of Radiance, is also the Lucifer who is engulfed in half of the original sin of mankind, and his life bearer is probably the one you least want to see." ”

The six wings of the contemporary Seraphic Angel Jafleaf slowly converged behind his back, and Sheila's complexion gradually became stern.

"Now that it's decided, it's time for me to go?" the Phantom smiled, no one saw the action, as if the image had been cut out of time without any excess.

Looking at the space where the phantom was located a moment ago, which suddenly became empty, both Jafayette and Sheila did not speak for a long time. (To be continued......)
