Angels and celestials are not the same thing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

If angels are powerful warriors who have sworn to serve the gods, the Celestials are more like the celestial realm—or the many inhabitants of the upper realms. Some of them were "promoted" by good people or heroes after they died, while others were originally born in the heavenly realm. Either way, they have a long life, a happy life, and an innate yearning for goodness and beauty.

Of course, many Celestials possess far more power than mortals, and volunteer to serve a good god or fight against evil. For them, it was the duty and glory that they should pursue as the Celestials.

But Lily couldn't figure out why a Celestial would be willing to serve the "Earl Stark" if not if it had been controlled or deceived.

Time could not help her to continue thinking, because the blade of the "enemy" was already coming at her.

She folded her sturdy wings and used them as shields to meet the falling greatsword. What followed was a tearing pain, and the wings of the dragon, which were enough to withstand ordinary swords, were easily cut open by the opponent with a wound nearly a meter long. Not only that, but a strong burst of electricity quickly crawled along her wings, causing the mercenary's entire body to become numb.

This made Lily completely put away her contempt and intention to convince the other party. She leaps backwards and reverts to her human form in the air, removing a "dagger" from her waist.

The dagger quickly lengthened and widened from the moment it was removed, growing to the same size as Lily's original obsidian greatsword in two seconds. But it was no longer pitch black, and the broad silver-white sword seemed to shimmer with countless stars—a precious alloy unique to the Elna people, light but extremely strong. Pfister gave it to her as a gift, and this was the first time she had used the greatsword.

She never wasted the martial arts skills she'd been practicing. The giant wolf's form is powerful, but on this small platform, it is more suitable to fight as a human.

The Celestials not far away raised their left hand again, but this time, Lily did not allow the other party to do so easily. She swooped down like a leopard, her giant sword slashing down with the sharp sound of the wind, forcing her opponent to give up her spell and raise her sword with both hands to parry the blow.

The two greatswords, both of which were of extraordinary quality, collided with a crisp but not harsh sound. Lily didn't take advantage of the blow, and the Celestial's strength was no less than hers.

She retracted the greatsword with the force of the collision, slashed it in a semicircle, and swept towards the opponent's lower limbs. However, this sword still failed to make a difference, and the opponent's swordsmanship was also very sophisticated, even giving her the illusion that she was fighting Barak.

No-the other side is not as good as Barak. Although the level of swordsmanship is not low, this Celestial Clan does not have the momentum of "that man" who seems to be empty-eyed. And for now, the bottom line is that she's not alone.

Bell and Elio finally recovered from the initial shock and began to flank the opponent in front of them with her. Alphonse was careful to apply the secret technique of protection to the crowd to avoid a recurrence of what happened not long ago.

The situation quickly turned in Lily's favor. It is quite difficult to fight four enemies with one, not to mention that the four people in front of him are all excellent fighters. Celestials began to leave wounds on their bodies, and a small amount of silvery-white blood stained their colorful hair—proof of her pure bloodline.

Lily hadn't forgotten that their goal was to "get each other out of here," not to kill them on the spot. She didn't believe all of the "curses" Ann said, but the identity of the other party, as well as the declaration made before the battle, had successfully piqued her curiosity.

"Bell, Elio, carry out Plan One!" She shouted.

"Alright, Captain Lily!" Elio excitedly replied, "Bell, I'm on my left, and I'm yours on my right!" ”

Lily stepped forward, swinging her two swords with all her might, and the Celestials on the opposite side once again raised their swords to meet them. Immediately after, Elio and Bell rushed up from left to right, dropping their weapons and grabbing one of each other's arms.

The Celestial Clan had clearly not expected such an "attack". She froze for a moment before remembering how to fight back—lightning flashed over her, quickly enveloping the two who were grappling her arms. Unfortunately, Alphonse had already applied sufficient protection to the two of them, and this level of electric shock would not have any effect.

"Get ready—we're coming!"

Lily, or the wyvern that Lily had incarnated incarnate glided over the ground, brutally threw the three of them on their backs, then grabbed the machine man in one bite, and plunged headlong into the sea of clouds beneath their feet before the Celestials, or even anyone else, could react.

"Wait, Boss Lily!" Elio shouted in panic, "So we're going to be electrocuted—huh?" ”

He blinked and shook his head, as if puzzled that he hadn't been struck by lightning.

In fact, the moment Lily left the platform with the Celestial, the surrounding environment had already begun to change.

The magic in the clouds quickly spread out to the surrounding area, triggering a series of continuous, but powerless, discharges. The thunder that had been all over the clouds quickly stopped, returning the mountain to its proper tranquility.

In addition, there is another "person" who has undergone changes - that is, the female celestial clan who exists as the "core". After leaving the platform, her blade-like momentum quickly dissolved, leaving only a slight confusion in the calm.

"Hey...... Why am I here? She looked left and right, raised her hand and tapped Lily's back, "Who are you?" ”

"You're being controlled by a guy named Huruman Stark." Lily spread her wings and glided, "Without looking back, "He has made the forest like this, and he has brought you to the cliff face, and you have been made to guard the fruits of his wickedness." She lowered her head and looked at the two people in the forest who were waiting for their return, and added, half-seriously, "If it weren't for Ann's suggestion, maybe ...... We've already killed you, huh? ”

The Celestial Clan replied softly, as if sorting out their thoughts. But what she said next was completely beyond Lily's - and the rest of the group.

"Ah, I remember." She said gently, "I volunteered to help Master Stark in order to make his 'ideals' come true. It was also my own choice to help him protect this cliff. ”

"What did you say?" Lily took a breath and asked in disbelief, "You ...... Volunteer to help Huruman Stark, that bastard? ”

The female Celestial shook her head.

"There's a little more evil here than I first saw, and maybe something has changed in the intervening time that I don't know about." "But I can be sure that Lord Stark—at least, the one I have seen—is not a wicked man," she affirmed. ”
