Chapter Twenty-Six: Thorn Flowers, Uncompromising

The guards and knights of the City Lord's Mansion were all tall, holding swords and shields, and wearing heavy ceremonial armor. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis kind of armor has a variety of decorations, glazed and gilded, and its protective ability is very average, but the weight is quite amazing, and even the armor of a person is several hundred kilograms.

Even the most powerful desert barbarian warrior couldn't throw the two heavily armed guardian knights dozens of meters away, and the reason why that tall woman was able to do it was definitely a powerful molten gold warrior.

Due to the inappropriateness of the use of pneumatic rifles in the City Lord's Mansion, ordinary soldiers were almost useless in front of high-level molten gold warriors. As soon as Baron Edelman's voice fell, several personal guards who were tasked with guarding the banquet venue immediately surrounded him, each activating his alchemy skills, and the colorful light reflected each other, which was very beautiful.

The tall woman in the pitch-black armor didn't even give these people a single look, and raised her chin arrogantly, "Your Excellency, don't you ask me about my identity?"

"There's no need, miss, whoever you are, the Thorn Flower family won't welcome you. Baron Edelman's tone was as cold as ice, "Even if you are a royal envoy from the imperial capital, my attitude will not change. ”

The tall woman's eyes narrowed, her gaze as sharp as a blade, "I hope you won't regret it, Your Excellency, the special status of the city-state of Coventry does not depend only on the strength of the Thornflower family, but also on the covert support of the major city-states, especially the Minnesota city-state. ”

Baron Edelman did not answer, but just waved his hand, and the four personal guards immediately rushed forward. The two people who charged head-on activated the "Steel Guardian", and the already tall and burly body swelled even more, and the heavy footsteps stomped on the ground, almost like two small steel puppets;

Compared to Merlin Avery's similar ability, "Everything Shielding", the directional dispel is less effective, but much more practical.

The shield is user-centric, shielding all alchemy skills within a radius of 20 meters, and requires the consumption of precious Mithril powder, while directional dispel only removes the alchemy skill on the targeted target, consuming the cheaper lead alloy powder.

There is only one downside to directional dispels, and that is that they are ineffective against alchemy item activation, or skills cast by molten warriors at the mentor level or above.

Faced with the attack of four personal guards, the tall woman's eyes showed disappointment. "This is the strength of the Thorn of Thorns, compared to the Hydra Guardian, it's too far behind!"

As this rather contemptuous comment was spoken, the tall woman waved her hands, and two palm-sized metal frisbees made a wonderful arc and shot at the two charging molten gold warriors.

This was not a surprising response, and the two molten gold warriors boasted that the "Iron Guardian" defense was amazing, and they covered their heads and necks with their hands, and lowered their bodies, charging at an unabated rate.

The metal frisbee hit the two opponents accurately, making a sound that was close to a steel clash of steel, but instead of bouncing off the ground, it stuck to their bodies like a magnet. Then the surprise happened, the tall woman spread her fingers and bent her hands in a backward jerking motion. The two charging molten warriors let out a terrifying cry of horror, as if they were being pulled by an invisible rope, and their bodies involuntarily soared into the air, and then smashed towards the two companions who were outflanked on the left and right.

There were two loud bangs, and only the molten gold warrior who cast the Extreme Speed Aura was lucky to escape, and when he landed, he stumbled and almost fell because he was too hasty. While the two Molten Gold Warriors who charged head-on were certainly disgraced, the Molten Gold Warriors who performed a directional dispersal were even more unlucky, their ribs almost all broken, and their arms twisted and bent to protect themselves, and they could only moan and gasp on the ground.

The four high-level molten gold warriors were not very powerful, but ordinary mentors definitely couldn't solve them so neatly. The tall woman didn't even unsheath the giant sword she was carrying behind her back, and she easily knocked down the three of them, which not only caused a round of exchange in the banquet hall, but also Baron Edelman's face became solemn.

"The captain of the Flying Wings of the Minnesota city-state, Gana Enlais, is indeed worthy of the prestige of the Blackwing Reaper. A slightly old voice suddenly sounded, with an approving tone.

"But this is Coventry, the territory of the Thornflower family, and no one is allowed to go wild. The second voice continued, a younger and energetic voice, like a loud horn.

"Thorn Blossom never compromises. The third voice spoke loudly, low and loud, like the beating of a marching drum. "We have sworn to protect the pride of the Thorn Flower with our blood and lives. ”

Three strong breaths belonging to the senior tutor emerged with the voice, causing the tall woman to restrain her contemptuous expression. "Thorn Flower Nineteen Heroes, one after another, killing endlessly. She spoke in a chanting tone, with a hint of respect in her tone. "Looks like I won't be able to see the Iron Master today. ”

"Whatever you're going to do to the Iron Master, in Coventry, don't even think about it. Baron Edelman joined the conversation, and a strong aura of mentor-level also appeared on his body, and it faintly involved and merged with the other three breaths, which jointly pressed on Gana Enlais.

After decades of fighting with the desert barbarians, the Thorn Flower family did not lack experience in fighting against grandmaster-level powerhouses. The Great Shaman and the Big Head of the Desert Barbarians have all reached the Grandmaster level, but they are defective in terms of weapons and equipment and alchemy potions, resulting in a slightly weaker overall strength than the Imperial Alchemists of the same level.

Equipped with a grandmaster-level alchemy item, the Flying Wing Battle Armor, Cana Enlais can be regarded as having grandmaster-level combat power, but he is still a mentor-level molten gold warrior in the aura confrontation, and he will inevitably fall behind. Of course, she still had her cards unplayed, and Viscount Hydra not only had her lead two-thirds of the Flying Wings force, but also the remaining five Hydra Guardians.

However, the attitude of the Thornflower family is clear enough, and continuing to threaten will only lead to a complete rupture in the relationship between the two city-states, which is something that Viscount Hydrera warned to absolutely avoid. Jaana Enlais was just belligerent, not brainless, and after a brief weigh-up of the pros and cons, she decided to back down for the time being.

"The Iron Master is implicated in the loss of a number of important materials at Broughfry College, and is also close to the traitors, and the city-state of Minnesota will not give up. I hope that you will think carefully about it, Your Excellency, and that I will come back in a week. ”

With that, Cana Enlais turned around and opened her arms. Pitch-black, massive metal wings stretched out from behind her with her movements, looking like a bloodthirsty fallen angel.

No one tried to stop the Blackwing Reaper from leaving, and it was extremely difficult to stop the Winged Knight, unless he used some precious and rare alchemy items, and risked being violently devoured. However, in comparison, the Winged Knight's attack power is lackluster, with few other means of attack other than throwing alchemy incendiary bombs and using pneumatic rifles to concentrate fire.

An attack of this level may have wreaked havoc on some rich and peaceful cities, but for the city-militarized Coventry, Cana Enlais and her wingers were at best an annoying fly.

"It's arrogant. Seeing that the back of the Blackwing Reaper gradually faded away, and finally turned into a small black dot in the window, the Dallas butler could barely maintain the polite mask on his face, and angrily made a suggestion, "Your Excellency, you should really turn on the beacon fire just now and teach that arrogant woman a lesson." ”

"Then it would be a complete tear with the city-state of Minnesota. Baron Edelman shrugged his shoulders, "That woman was right when she said just now, Minnesota and Coventry are relatively loose allies, and once they are really hostile, it is not a good thing for both sides. ”

He then turned to Avery with an apologetic smile on his face, "Master Iron, you just made such a terrible farce, it's time for the Thornflower family's personal guard to put things in order. But in the name of the Archon of Coventry, I assure you, whether it is Minnesota, CΓ΄te d'Ivoire, or Texas, even if the Imperial Capital comes, as long as the Thornflower family is still standing in the West, those people will not try to threaten you!"

"The Apothecary's Guild has the same attitude. President Herderland said in a solemn tone.

"The stories of those people are very good, but unfortunately they are full of loopholes. Deben Basten spoke third, "I know exactly what the background of Bluffrey House is, except for the Lord Dean, who is too old to find his own shoes, the rest of the fellows can't even touch the door of the Grandmaster's Hall. Not to mention pushing the door in. ”

Deben Basten's caustic remarks caused everyone to burst into laughter, and the awkward atmosphere caused by the Blackwing Death God Garna Enlais was swept away. The Dallas butler commanded the servants to carry the wounded away, rearrange the long table, and clean up the mess.

More than ten minutes later, the banquet began again, with staggered and melodious singing, and the hippie-smiling clown kept gagging, causing bursts of pleasant laughter, as if nothing had happened just now.

Avery, however, knew what the presence of Gana Enlais meant. He did his best to maintain a calm and laughing posture, greeting the guests, clinking glasses, and talking in a low voice, but in fact he was a little too forceful, so that President Herderland discovered some clues before the banquet was nearing its end.

"Master Iron, are you not feeling well?" President Hellland found an opportunity to lean over, "I see that your forehead is covered with sweat, maybe you are suffering from the cold, do you want to go back and rest early?"

That's a good excuse. Avery did feel exhausted, and things for Cana Enlais needed to be laid out early. So he nodded slightly, "Then I will trouble you, Lord Herderland, and I ask you to apologize to His Excellency the Baron on my behalf." ”
