Chapter 18: Lori and the Knight

Midnight a few days later

Huoyun Fortress, the capital of the Itte Province of the Republic of Thousand Collars

To the north of the Republic of Thousand Collar is the Kingdom of Aurora against the undead in the Northland. To the west of the www.biquge.info is the kingdom of Balosta isolated from the desert heat. In addition, the Kingdom of Stars, a country of mountains that connects the treasure stars of the dwarven world to the south, and the Blue Ocean Alliance, a country of merchants who exchange overseas islands in the east. Now it is known as the top five in the mainland.

Although the Mage Association, the Warrior Association, the Demon Machinery Association, the Holy Light Church, the Eight Groups and other huge forces have been checking and balancing the power of the state apparatus. But no one will think that the top five are easy to mess with.

Not to mention that Qianling is located in the middle of the five countries, which is the transportation hub of the entire human world. Merchants, vehicles, and adventurers come and go.

The province of It is the center of the Republic of Thousand Collars, which can be described as the hinterland of the hinterland.

Why, then, was his provincial capital a fortress?

According to the troubadours, the Firecloud Fortress was once a small village on the front lines of humanity. With the rise of magic, huge fortresses were nailed to the wilderness, between the endless forests, and on the lofty mountains, and in the invasion of beasts and barbarians, this unfallen stronghold became more and more majestic and stronger. Eventually, a magical array was created that enveloped the entire fortress, and all hostile forces that dared to attack were defeated. During a counter-offensive by the undead of the Northlands, this glorious fortress unleashed an incomparably powerful super-large circle attack, the Raging Hell. Annihilated tens of thousands of undead armies in one fell swoop, and even the sky was red for three days, hence the name Huoyun Fortress.

After the dark forces faded and the fire of human civilization spread across the land, it turned from a front line to a large rear, slowly evolving into a huge trading city. Only the towering and dilapidated walls of the old town tell the story of the year's achievements.

now

The new town is still brightly lit and bustling, with horse-drawn carriages, magic crystal shuttles, and pedestrians pouring from taverns to another magic theater and love hotel.

The old town is already silent and quiet.

On the grassy old city wall, a curtain of black smoke blends with the wall, just sheltering a collapsed depression under the cover of night.

A petite girl, crouched on her knees, was none other than Lilucis, who had infiltrated the Thousand Collar through the portal a week ago.

At this time, she was completely different from when she fought in the Blood Arena before. The whole body is equipped with state-of-the-art weaponry.

He was wearing an ethereal combat suit that the Necronomicon had put into actual combat for the first time, which was lightweight and warm, extremely tough, and could well resist puncture and penetration damage. The illusion magic circle on the surface can be disguised as a civilian costume at any time, or simply imitate the background for optical invisibility. Of course, if it were just that, it would not be much different from the general special operations suit. Its core technology is a level 6 magic that is permanently fixed on clothing, Ethereal Spirit.

With another catalytic magic array, after the embedded magic crystal is activated, the user will be instantly etherealized, and the body can freely switch between matter and spirit, so as to obtain a strong physical immunity. It is especially effective against attacks by groups of armies that cannot be dodged.

The dimensional pouch hanging from his waist is full of various supplies and cutting-edge weapons.

It can be said that she came with almost half of the experimental infiltration equipment of the Northland undead this time.

At this time, Lilucisis was intently observing the string of pendants hanging from her hand.

I saw that the pendant emitted a faint magical light, and a crimson gem hung under the chain string made of bones, in which there was a faint blood-colored aura mixed with light points spinning.

After a long time, the girl raised her head, her brows furrowed slightly, and then she unfolded, and a playful smile hung on the corner of her mouth.

"These gods are chasing after you quite closely, hmph, since this place has been explored, let's play with you. ”

Before the voice landed, the figure had disappeared.

At the same time, three men and two women appeared on the deserted street. It unfolds in a 131 battle formation.

"Ryan, why did you say that Lord Rice Cake should send an additional vampire hunter, and when will our Cleaner team need to bring a babysitter?"

Before Captain Ryan could speak, the priest behind him, Neville, took over the topic: "I heard that it was arranged by the archbishop himself, and it is estimated that the blood countess has a lot of weight." ”

"Cut, didn't you run away in embarrassment from the battle three days ago?" Garfield was a little disdainful.

"Well, the enemy is nearby, all on alert. "Ryan had a very dignified face and shiny blonde hair, and held a huge shield with the seal of the Holy Hand. He glanced at Garfield, and then instructed, "Last time it was daytime, her combat power was reduced by at least half, and she must not underestimate the enemy." ”

"It's coming!" reminded Monica, the vampire hunter who walked at the front.

Now, anyway, the Blood's hearing and vision are extremely sensitive, and there is no possibility of pretending not to know how to set traps. Several people simply put up a defensive formation, Ryan and Garfield stood guard, and the priest threw all kinds of blessing magic and shields at his companions. Tina, the little magician in the middle, has opened the safety of various firearms and crossbows, ready to fire at any time.

"12 o'clock!" Monica shouted, spearheading the attack, her demon crossbow spewing out a barrage of arrows.

What the hell? I haven't seen an enemy sneak up from front in so many years. Garfield was slightly startled, but his movements were not slow at all. The holy sword in his hand shone brightly, his waist sank, his legs stretched out, and he leaped forward at an extremely fast speed, resisting the most sparse space of the crossbow arrows.

"Boom!"

Garfield, who had just landed and was still on his feet, was hit by a dagger that suddenly appeared out of thin air.

When the dagger stabbed the shield on his body, it made a loud sound as the hammer struck. The entire shield shattered, and the young knight flew faster than he had leaped forward, falling back to his teammates.

Behind the dagger, a snow-white palm emerged, and then, Lilucis, as if out of thin air, revealed its entire body in front of the Cleaner team.

There was no pause or conversation, and Ryan caught Garfield with one hand, and the priest immediately put a new shield on him. The body of the magician in the middle burst into flames, and a tight rope net shot out of the magic spear, instantly unfolding into a huge silver-plated mesh array covering Lilusis from top to bottom.

Ryan, who had put down his teammates, followed closely behind, charging with a shield. A powerful and incomparable shield-shaped holy mang covered the sky, and with a fierce aura, it pushed sideways like a wall. The whole street is as bright as day.

Monica, the squad striker who was offside by Lilucis, also turned around and bullied her, changing her double crossbows to dual swords, and the sharp sword qi rubbed against the air with a piercing scream. Behind him, there were four magic crystal floating cannons, blasting out rays of four colors with different attributes.

In an instant, the tide of battle was reversed, and the front, back, and upper parts of Lilusis were all sealed, and Priest Neville was the first to strike, blessing the left and right walls and the ground below with "solid" magic.

Surrounded in the middle, Lilucis, who suffered a multi-attribute all-round blow, smiled ghostly.
