Chapter 6: Vina's Flames
The rain gradually slowed down, and the sky became more and more bright with the passage of time, and the thin rain curtain somewhat obscured the dazzling light of the ball of light in the middle of the sky, but formed a dreamlike situation. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Moore and the other three people set off from the early morning, during which they accelerated the speed of progress because of a little "accident", which shortened the trip that originally lasted at least until the afternoon by almost half, so it was still noon at the moment.
It was the third month of December in Southerwell, the "Wind Chime Month", and the time that the sun shrouded the mainland was neither long nor short in the whole year, and it was a period of relatively balanced distribution of day and night. However, compared to the long May "Burning Moon," which lasts for 360 days, which takes up half of the year, March is too short with only 27 days, and compared with other equally short months, its representative feature is that in these short 27 days, the air movement phenomenon that does not occur naturally on weekdays, and the "wind" will visit every part of the continent. However, compared to the force generated by the stalemate of two different elemental magics, which were enough to stir up a violent storm in the land, these naturally occurring winds were only "merely capable of blowing wind chimes" as described.
Overall, it is a fairly overlooked month of the twelve.
"Alas......"
A long sigh was heard, and Moore, already covered in raindrops, stood on top of the rudimentary wharf, which was in fact only a piece of wood jutting out of the sea, on the westernmost coast of the village, with his spear standing behind him, and he had been thinking for a long time as he stepped on the boat that floated beside him.
A closer look reveals that his blade appears to be much thicker than the handle of a normal spear, and the color of the handle is unusually silver.
Just now, behind him, there was a sound of explosion in the distance, and Moore didn't need to look back to know that this was a "big movement" caused by Vena unleashing a considerable level of elemental magic. Thankfully, her magic had returned to its usual level after a period of silence, and there should be no need to worry too much, but it must be noted that the strange magic in her vicinity had also increased to an even more terrifying level.
"I'm sorry. β
His teeth ached, but Moore, who had a gloomy face, could only say these two words, and more thoughts could only be suppressed in his heart. Looking up with difficulty and numbness, the man let the rain fall on his weather-beaten face, was silent for a moment, and then made a decision.
How can Vina be left alone to face it and bear everything?
Turning resolutely, the spear brandished behind him, Moore took a deep breath, and then exhaled it gently.
"Running away is never the solution......"
With a final sigh, the cheeks that had been tense since arriving in the village finally showed signs of stretching. More knew in his heart that things should be the worst of the worst things he had expected. Just, yourself...... Obviously full of longing for that person, he should rush to his side as soon as possible...... Chose to escape. Don't dare to face the possible cruelty, in the name of gathering intelligence...... Heh, gather intelligence...... Will this solve the problem? Will this be able to know everything? Will it be a little better to leave the pain of the testimony to Vina?
Can you escape for the rest of your life?
It's ridiculous.
The answer to the question should be clearest in the trembling heart at this moment.
He shook his head with a haggard look, and after taking another deep breath, he finally tried his best to successfully dispel the heaviness on his body.
"Wait for me, Vina. β
Life always has to move forward, so Mohr took a step.
"Wait for me, captain. β
Running, what flashed in my mind over and over again was not the figure of my friends who were like family, but the information that I had gathered here in the past time that might come in handy. He hoped that, at the very least, he would be able to find some valuable information to make up for the harm he had caused to others because of his escape.
Of course, it is also for the peace of mind of oneself.

......
This time the spell did not repeat the previous mistakes, after all, if there was another heavy blow of that magnitude, I am afraid that I would have to report to Captain Lance in the afterlife in advance.
Jumping out of the window, the two figures flew out of the parabola for more than ten meters, and were about to hit the steep rock wall before stopping. Perhaps in order to prevent Captain Lance's body from being affected by magic again, Vina only performed a levitation spell on her own body, and brought out the man's relatively tall body with her hands.
Originally, it was almost impossible for the petite Vina to make such an action as picking up an adult man without the help of magic. But now that she has done it, on the one hand, it must rely on a strong will, and on the other hand, perceiving the fact that Lance's body is much lighter than she imagined, she can't help but want to cry again for the woman who loves this man to the bone.
"I didn't expect the first hug to be like this. β
The whispering is embarrassing.
The moment she landed, the bones of her whole body were constantly screaming, and although the inertia that should have been retained when she landed was eliminated with the help of magic, the previous injuries inevitably became more serious without treatment.
However, none of this matters at this time.
"Rest in peace, Captain. He stretched out his hand and tried to close his eyes, but suddenly discovered a truth that touched his heart. Without tears, sadness is inevitable, but Vina also understands that she is full of unprecedented strength at this moment.
Even if he died, he could still point her in the direction of light.
As the love of Vina's life, Lance's eyes were closed before he died, not only that, but in the church full of light, he came to the bright outdoors in the church that was full of shadows, and Lance's face was finally revealed, and it was indeed a comfortable smile that his wish had been fulfilled.
Face death with a smile.
-- It's very impressive.
His posture changed because of the movement, his neck rested on Vina's slender arm, and his originally lowered head was now looking at the sky, and the raindrops that had suddenly become gentler than before gently slapped on his body, as if to wash away everything and everything that had passed.
"Woo......"
The memories of the past are vivid, and the sobs are still heard again. In a trance, she remembered that not long ago, on the same rainy day, in the center of the city filled with colorful rose petals, she suddenly understood how the bard, who told the story of joys and sorrows in front of everyone, could recite such poignant verses.
Because, "the rain makes it even more difficult to hold back tears." β
What did Lance go through before the dark, cold, and terrifying death came, and what was it that made him go to such a bottomless silence with such a serene and calm demeanor?
Vina was afraid she would never know the answer to that question.
It wouldn't be !! wonder when the "Roar" turn of events would come, and Vina knew that it was far from over. There was no time for her to soak up the memories of the past, the roar of a beast coming from the church, and with it, the sound of something being masked and smashing to the ground. That magic never disappeared, which also verified that the pillar of fire just now failed to kill the thing.
"How about the house collapse, how about using it as your grave?"
The movement in the room didn't make her nervous or anxious, so Vena leaned Lance's body against the rock wall, made a vow in her heart, clenched her fists, and turned her head.
The content of the oath is to settle the matter here as soon as possible, and then go with Lance to the warm place.
And the reddened eyes point to the anger of the "monster" who is recognized as the culprit of everything.
"Come on. β
Standing in an awe-inspiring posture and outstretched fingers defiant, Vina was determined to discard all the disguises she had made for Captain Lance's attention, thus revealing her true character.
"Roarβ"
She was answered by meaningless shouting, which seemed to mean that the people in the room had lost their ability to speak as human beings.
"Don't you understand? It's pitiful! It's not even a human being, so let me give you a funeral!"
The palms stretched from the chest to the sides, and along the trajectory of the palms of the arms, the elves that were originally hidden in the air showed their colors, and the fiery magic elements began to gather in large numbers.
Among the many types of magic, Vina is best at the elemental magic of the fire element.
Releasing fire elemental magic on a rainy day sounds a little ridiculous, but in fact, it reflects a huge misunderstanding about elemental magic on the continent, many people who don't know about elemental magic believe that the essence of this kind of magic is to mobilize magical elements with magic power, so as to reproduce natural phenomena such as fire, water, lightning, and storms, and in fact, after the latest research by the Mage Association, elemental magic is essentially to drive the corresponding magic elements through magic to make these elves "imitate" the existence of flames"Nature", not a true representation.
In other words, magically generated flames are different from real-life flames.
Continuing from this, it is further deduced that ordinary flames are affected by the touch of water, while fire elemental magic is not simply extinguished by natural flowing water. In the northeast of the continent, in the territory of Goddani's empire, the famous "fire on the water" wonder in the city of Fateakcomomo, the "capital of pontoons", was built on this principle to be realized.
The process of gathering elemental magic continues. For an elemental mage, the most vulnerable time is during the period when he gathers magic elements, if there is no trap planted in advance or something like a magic barrier released in advance, then the mage at this time is like meat on a chopping board, which can basically only be easily slaughtered by others.
"Cut, not fooled?" Vena frowned. I thought that the guy would see this time and rush out to attack him, but I didn't expect that there was no movement inside, and even the screaming stopped. Judging from the fact that the "monster" doesn't seem to have the ability to speak, Vina thought he didn't even have the wisdom to fight, but now it seems that he understands it very well, right?
After a long period of gathering, it was Vina's trap, not her alone, in fact, any elemental mage with a certain strength would never simply show his biggest flaw in front of his opponent.
On the other hand, if it weren't for the lack of combat experience or the fact that the strength was really weak, such an obvious flaw would simply be telling the enemy to "come and take the opportunity to fight me", isn't it?
"It's a pity, I thought I wouldn't be able to do anything if I didn't come out?
It doesn't hurt if the enemy doesn't get caught, but whether he attacks or not, it's a good thing for Vina, and the enemy doesn't move, and she has plenty of time to gather enough magic elements to release high-level magic.
More and more points of light began to envelop her, and her palms, her arms, and even her whole body began to gradually be covered by this magical spirit. The fact that such a large number of magical elements were gathered here was something that even surprised even herself. You know, of course, the amount of magic elements that a mage can gather is related to his magical power, but another important point must be emphasized that the total amount of magic elements contained in different regions is different, and the total amount of various magic elements is closely related to the surface form.
In areas such as inland mountains or caves, earth is abundant, but if it is not the source of rivers or groundwater, it must be extremely rare to be surrounded by elements such as fire and water. In coastal areas like this village, the water element is naturally almost inexhaustible, and the corresponding fire element is in the minority.
So, it's no wonder that Vina was surprised to be able to collect such a large number of magical elements without the help of special tools:
This must be the will of the true God! The true god wants me to destroy this damn monster in one fell swoop! Not only that, but it must be! There must be the blessing of the captain, and Captain Lance absolutely wants me to avenge him here!
"Hide in there and don't move...... Then even you will fly with it!Drink!"
Filled with gratitude for the true god, Vena compressed all the magical elements into her hands, forming a ball of crimson light that was dazzlingly colored by the overlapping of thousands of flame elements. Jiao shouted, full of anger, but also relieved, at the same time as the ball of light in his hand was formed, a large magic array that ordinary people had never even seen appeared on the ground, encompassing the entire church.
And then.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
From the appearance of the magic array to the formation of the main magic in less than a second, in the blink of an eye, the deafening roar of explosions, the flames that were hundreds of times more powerful than the Pillar of Flame that appeared before rose into the sky, melting the surrounding rain curtain into white mist, completely engulfing the entire church. There was no room for the houses in the flickering hell, and the sound of burning overshadowed everything around it, and the dark sections gradually became smaller, and then the light flames that exploded into the sky erupted into the sky. You can appreciate the horror of this magic when you see it from afar, let alone be in it. Bright flames surging and magic splendouring higher and higher, even if you ignore the power, the spectacle is enough to captivate you.
That's where the magic of elemental magic comes in.
In addition to the Scourge of Radial Destruction, the dazzling and breathtaking spectacle of elemental magic is one of the reasons why it is loved by many of Southwell's mages.
Such a scene turned out to be the work of oneself, who is a human being, how could this not make the hearts of the magicians surge.
Mages are also human, and despite the prejudices of the outside world, mages also possess the seven emotions and six desires that belong to humans.
"Hoo ......"
Vina didn't feel a lot of emotion for her elemental magic. This is not her full strength, because of the damage to her body, with the conditions at this time, she can't use any of the great magic that can really "destroy the world", so she can only take a step back and put all the magic elements on this flame pillar with the highest degree of control.
"Gone, ha, gone!"
The man who took Captain Lance's life is finally dead, as evidenced by the disappearance of the strange magic in his body.
There is no doubt that the "good news" can only make Vina, who has lost her beloved, excited for a few more moments.
After all, no matter what she did, the dead would never be able to see each other alive again.
Human life is precious precisely because it is only once.
