Chapter 396: Before Dawn (4)

......

Light and darkness coexist in ancient times, and the two cannot coexist in any way, but they can only be manifested through the existence of the other. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Light and darkness, together with the elements of wind, thunder, water, earth, and ice, which were once collectively called "nature", form the foundation of Southerwell. However, "nature" is a force in itself, and it cannot be embodied or replaced by simple elements. In Southwell's current academic cognitive system, nature is defined as the primordial power that exists in everything and can sustain its development and growth, and in the current magic system, natural magic is also a unique remote system that is different from the many branches of elemental magic, and spreads in the area of the Northwater Empire in the northwest of the continent.

Nature does not refer to a collection of elements, which many people do not know, and similarly, few people in this land know the difference between darkness and shadow.

Shadows are not darkness, nor are they the more intense nature of the "dark elements" that manifest darkness.

A shadow is a shadow, neither light nor darkness. They are the masters of their own world, the Shadow Plane, but they have become irritable and greedy after entering Southwell for some unknown reason.

And whatever the truth about the Shadows, no matter how "docile" they may be in their own world, in Southwell, these demons, who are so intensely motivated to devour anything alien around them, are a major threat to the safety of humanity and all that remains, and must therefore be feared, hostile, and excluded.

"Ahem!

In the unknown space realm, the woman who was knocked down by the great force, and then screamed and vomited a mouthful of blood, was the Sneek's maid who had escaped from Troy and the other three with the power of the shadow earlier.

However, although she successfully escaped from the "forced killing" of the "enemy", she could not escape the "clutches" of her "companions".

"Cut, I've never seen a stupid guy like you! Why expose us to those people that we have the ability to escape into the shadows? When they are all fools like you who have never seen the market? Master said that 'Astrologists' and 'Divine Dependents' are both unpredictable and wise guys, why would you be stupid enough to expose your abilities in front of them? Isn't it good to die there honestly like your companions?ah?!"

"Bang!"

While venting his contempt and anger through his words, he kicked the woman in the stomach so hard that she vomited blood and gastric juice that the man was none other than the talented young Assassin Richie, who had made countless achievements in hunting, and beside her was the female assassin who seemed to be unable to speak, his sister Lila.

"Ahhh......h Why is this kind of waste our companion?!Why is this kind of thing recognized by the great Shadow?!Answer me, O waste!Answer me with your mouth that only serves men!!"

Kick after kick, and in the blink of an eye, Richie, who had abused the woman to the point of bruising, had a good grip on it - this was why Lila didn't really stop his atrocities, she knew that her brother was still someone who knew how to take care of the overall situation, and now was not the time to cut her own combat power at will.

"It's almost over, Richie. Anyway, it's already happened, and since we can't take back the water we've already spilled, it's better to focus on thinking about how to deal with the future battles. Listen to me, okay?"

The female assassin spoke indifferently, and her face, which rarely showed the rest of her expression, loosened a little at the end of the sentence because of her brother's strange expression, and her tone softened a little.

“...... Okay, since it's a rare request from my sister, I'll spare this waste this time...... But can she really be useful? ”

The anger on his face disappeared in an instant, and the naughty teenager who suddenly became naughty jumped past the fainting woman, came to his sister's side and smiled, but it made Lila also feel an inexplicable chill.

However, whether as a close family member or as a senior cultivator, Lila must maintain the image of living in front of Richie. Therefore, she tried not to let her cowardly side come out, and at the same time made her expression a little more serious.

"It's not you who determines the value of Neri, it's our master. ”

The only thing that can suppress the eccentric and arrogant Richie is the master of the two, "Navy Blue" Nigel. Lila was confident that such words were enough to make her uncontrollable brother give up killing the woman who was also her own family, although there was no trace of pity in her eyes that swept Nelly, only indifference.

To be honest, Lila also wants to kill this "scum" who can't complete the task and exposes her own abilities, but the lives of these people all belong to the "master", so from the position of the "senior sister", she must suppress her inner selfish desires on the one hand, and on the other hand, she must also stop the "junior brother" from transgressing.

Then, a voice suddenly remembered.

"That's a good point, Lila, I'm a little touched. But the value of human beings is not so simple. If you want to say it, it would be more appropriate to say 'your value to me'. ”

I couldn't find the slightest sense of seriousness, as if he was standing on a transcendent perspective overlooking the sentient beings, and the "dark blue" who appeared here could no longer find any traces of fighting with the "dark monarch", and he was still wrapped in a navy blue velvet robe, and he looked so elegant and majestic, so scheming.

Although he has only been in the School of Magic for one year, there is no doubt that Nigel is the "core" and "brain" of the current hunting group, and he is the real mastermind of the evil deeds of the hunting group during this time.

And his purpose is unknown.

"Master, you're back. Seeing Nigel here, the two siblings bowed to him quite tacitly, and Richie, who seemed to be a little unable to bear the loneliness, added a sentence later, "What about the next action?"

"Phew, don't worry, it's not time for you to play. With the usual smile on his lips, "Zang Qing" cast a rather amusing glance at his favorite apprentice, "Although I want to say this, do you want to listen to the truth? To be honest, the hand of the 'Son of God' is really embarrassing, what should I do next? I don't know! I am also desperate! What else can we do in the face of such a powerful force? Just wait for it to be annihilated in one fell swoop, ha." ”
