Volume I, Chapter 5: Unknown Crisis

"I'm Master Damu of the Ottoman Royal Battle Mage Regiment, this young lady, please don't get in the way of our business!"

Perhaps because he couldn't see through Andrea's strength, the magician Damm preemptively revealed his identity.

"It's someone from the Imperial Royal Battle Mage Regiment!" Mick exclaimed.

"You know about this organization?" asked Andrea.

"I don't know, it sounds like a powerful name......"

“......”

Seeing that Andrea and Mick were not moved at all, Damm said to himself, could it be that this woman has a great background, otherwise how could he be indifferent to the name of the Royal Battle Mage Regiment?

How did he know that he had actually met two old hats, and he had never heard of any royal battle mage regiment......

Damu wasn't sure where the other party came from, so he didn't dare to make a move for the time being, and said inwardly: "Miss, you'd better understand what you're doing, fighting against the Royal Battle Mage Regiment in the Ottoman Empire will never end well." ”

"Let's go, we can't beat their ......" Andrea completely ignored Dam's presence, grabbed Mick by the collar and turned to leave.

"Hey, this is my territory, where can I go?"

"It's better to go anywhere than to die here. ”

"Aren't you still able to cast a spell?"

"What happens after you've cast it?"

"Is there no other way?"

Andrea was stunned and said, "Yes, but the price will be great......"

Mick saw Andrea's hesitation and knew that the price might be unbearable. He opened his mouth, but he couldn't get his request out of his mouth.

Master Dam looked at Andrea, who was leaving, and was stunned for ten seconds before she figured out what was going on.

He was ignored! It was an absolute disgrace to the noble magician.

The anger of renunciation immediately shattered his sanity. Mage Dam's mouth was full of words, and the translucent curtain of light quickly condensed into an arrow of light that shot at Mick.

"Level 3 magic, arcane arrows!"

This magic could easily pierce through heavy cavalry from a distance of two hundred meters, and if he shot Mick, it was almost impossible for him to leave a whole corpse.

Andrea frowned, she looked at the fast-shooting arrows, then at Mick with a panicked face, and struggled violently in her heart, but finally sighed, and silently recited a jerky spell in her mouth.

Andrea's previous spells were obscure, but Mick could at least understand the syllables, but this time it came out of her mouth like a beautiful tune, and Mick instinctively felt that it was not human language.

As the incantation was pronounced, Andrea's face turned pale, and her body burned with a fierce milky white flame.

The sky seemed to have cracked, and a dazzling light shone right on Andrea. She slowly rose into the air along the holy light, and the milky white holy flame suddenly boiled, like an exploding fireball, and scattered in all directions.

The burning holy light instantly covered a radius of one kilometer, and everything in it began to burn. Except for Mick......

Mick bathed in the Holy Flame, not only did he not feel any burning pain, but his whole body was warm and very comfortable. The mysterious power in his body resonated harmoniously with the Holy Flame, sending out bursts of joyful fluctuations, ready to move and thrive.

The arcane arrow that was fired at Mick had long since turned to ashes, and Mage Dam and the soldiers were struggling silently in the flames.

Mick saw Dirk wrapped in Holy Flame, a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth, he tried his best to control the power of no more than one level, wrapped Dirk gently, and the mysterious power blocked most of the power of Holy Flame, so that Dirk would not be burned to death immediately, but it would not reduce the pain he suffered in the slightest.

Just as Mick was beaming with pride, Andrea let out a painful groan in mid-air. Mick noticed that Andrea's face was pale, and her light magic robe was soaked with sweat, clinging to her seductive body, outlining a beautiful outline.

In fact, when Andrea activates this magic, everything is out of her control. She is like a magic crystal, constantly being drained of mana, and when the mana bottoms out, it will be her life force that will be lost.

Furrows gradually appeared on her beautiful face, her long brown hair turned gray, and her plump flesh slowly dried up.

Mick was startled and shouted anxiously, "Enough, Andrea, stop!"

However, Andrea didn't seem to hear his cry, and more and more holy flames rushed out of her, and her aging speed accelerated several times.

"Damn it......" Mick only then vaguely understood what the price Andrea was talking about. He was annoyed by the stupidity of pretending to be a hero, and regretted that he hadn't chosen to run away in the first place.

It was because of his willful persistence that he and Andrea were in danger.

Seeing that everything was irretrievable, a bright star suddenly lit up in the distant sky, and the blue starlight gently wrapped Andrea in mid-air.

Under the soothing of the starlight, the holy flames that kept pouring out of her body began to gradually extinguish, and the holy light above her head slowly disappeared into the night sky.

Her body fell lightly in the blue starlight, the wrinkles on her face slowly lightened, her gray hair rejuvenated, and her dry body quickly plumped up like water.

By the time she fell to the ground, she had completely recovered her former beauty.

"Andrea, are you alright?" Mick rushed to Andrea's side, trying to hug her, but the divine aura emanating from her body made Mick feel a deep sense of awe, and stopped awkwardly one step away from her.

Andrea didn't say a word, she looked at the sky from afar, and there was something indescribable in her eyes.

"Andrea ......"

"I'm fine. ”

"Just now...... That's the price you're talking about, right?"

"Yes"

"What about you?"

"I'm fine, someone has paid enough for me......"

"What?"

Andrea suddenly smiled, laughing heartily: "The price is far greater than I imagined......"

Mick stood behind her, and for some reason, his feelings became very complicated when he heard that someone had paid enough for Andrea.

Andrea turned her head and threw Mick a piece of blue crystal, "Mick gives this to you." ”

"What is this?"

"When your power is able to open its seal, you'll know. ”

Mick gently rubbed the crystal in his hand, but a heart had already flown to Andrea, I don't know why, he felt that Andrea in front of him was different from before.

In the Hagia Sofino, the Templar priest Haveys hurried into the Pope's bedchamber, knelt down in front of the steps and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the location of the two heretics has been determined. There was an unconcealed joy in his words.

"Is there any difficulty?" asked Pope Fildra, lying on the large bed at the top of the Divine Steps.

"One of the heretics is in the Duchy of Aledia, thousands of miles away, which has not yet been shrouded in the grace of the Father. ”

The Pope was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "As long as it is a heretic, no matter where he is or who he is protected by, he will not be able to escape the judgment of order." ”

"As you wish!" said Havisis bowed solemnly and exited the chamber.

Pope Fildra sat up slowly, looking out the window, his gaze flying north again.

The land that had been scorched by the Holy Flame was wiped out, and everything that was alive was transformed into the purest energy, and there was not even a trace of dregs left.

Dirk lay on the ground and was dying, his body was burned to the point of blood, and he could no longer see his human form.

Mick approached him gloomily, didn't know where to find a handful of fine salt, and sneered and sprinkled it on Dirk, and Dirk's terrible howl immediately sounded in the empty ruins.

"Dear Knight Dirk, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon. Mick said with a sinister smile.

"Leave me alone...... Please, let me go......" Dirk wailed, begging for mercy.

"I'm curious about Knight Dirk, you're as poor as I am, why can you afford so many private soldiers and equipment? Oh, by the way, there's a famous battle mage. Mick asked playfully.

"It's not me, it's not me, it's what they gave me...... You let me go, I'll tell you everything. ”

"They?" Mick keenly grasped the point of the question and asked in a deep voice, "Who are they?"

"I don't know, they are also nobles, very rich, and very powerful, they gave me money, let me kill you, and promised to help me inherit your title and territory after the deed is completed. ”

"You're lying!" Mick sneered, "The Empire is so stingy with the title of nobility, it is almost impossible to obtain it from other means other than military merit and paying a lot of taxes, and they can pay such a big price for you stupid pig?"

"It's true, it's true!" Dirk said in fear, "I don't understand why they did it, I only see it as a gift from the Father."

Oh, by the way, and that magician was also sent by them, otherwise how could I, a little knight, invite a magician?"

Listening to Dirk's answer, Mick's face became more and more gloomy.

Someone wants to kill me, and they have power and strength. But in that case, why did they bother to make such a big move thanklessly?

Wouldn't it be okay to let that magician sneak in and kill me at night?

Could it be the family? Thinking of the Beckman family, one of the six powerful people of the empire, Mick instinctively shuddered. But when he thought about it, he felt that it was wrong.

With the consistent strength of the Beckman family, if you want to solve the shame of your family, you will definitely send a killer to do yourself cleanly, how can you expose your family ugliness?

However, apart from the family, he really couldn't think of anyone who had such strength and hated himself to the core.

"Damn, who the hell did Lao Tzu offend?" Mick let out a depressed roar, turning his right hand into a knife, easily piercing Dirk's shattered skin and pinching his heart.

"You promised to let me go...... You're lying...... You damn stupid pig......" Dirk's face was grim, dying.

"Letting you die is already the greatest mercy to you!"

Myctic power poured out of Mick's hand, and in an instant, Dirk's heart was broken into a pool of blood.

"Huh?" Why can trees be broken down into high-purity magical essences, while Dirk's heart can only be broken down into useless blood? Is it because Dirk is too stupid to be worthless?

Mick was a little confused, but he didn't have time to think about it for the time being, an unknown tyrannical force was about to kill him, and all his possessions had just been burned to ashes.

How will Mick survive the current crisis? What is his future? Before he knew it, Mick was deeply confused.

"I should go......" Andrea walked up behind Mick and said flatly.

Her cold voice brought Mikla back to reality, "Oh, where are we going?"

"It's not us, it's just me ......"

Although Mick had a hunch that someone like Andrea would leave him sooner or later, he was still frustrated that the day had come so quickly.

"Have you regained your memory?"

"No," Andrea shook her head, "but I found my way." ”

"I'm going to go to the one to pay for you...... Oh no, someone who paid enough for you?"

Andrea nodded quietly.

At this moment, Mick suddenly felt a little sad, he felt that it was because of his incompetence that Andrea would be forced to find someone to "support" him...... Although his analogy is not very appropriate, it really doesn't make sense to think so.

Andrea seemed to see Mick's depression and explained: "Mick, I have been completely exposed to the vision of the gods just now, this road will be very dangerous, you follow me, how good will it be for all of us...... All good things come to an end. ”

"I know, it's okay......" Mick nodded slightly, what could he say?

Mick sighed in his heart, and suddenly thought of something else, and asked Andrea, "Oh, by the way, what was that magic you ended up unleashing?" ”

"Actually, that's not magic...... Andrea hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth: "What I just released is a divine magic, the kind that is often used by the priests of the church. ”

Mick's eyes widened: "Could it be that I have ...... in my body?"

Andrea nodded: "Yes, the kind of power in your body, actually...... It's divine power, and it's the purest divine power!"
