【Alien】Section 3 Danke (II)
Soon after, Danko saw a group of people approaching in the distance, one of them standing out in the crowd, presumably on horseback, and he was surrounded by soldiers and onlookers. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Info Dan Ke didn't know the identity of the man, because the people he asked only knew that someone from above would come down to inspect it. "Probably not the king, but one of the 'four warriors'?" Danko thought to himself. At this moment a voice came from outside the alley—
"Look, it's the Duke!" the voice was surprised and fearful.
At this time, the two who were still hiding in the alley noticed that the crowd of onlookers had consciously retreated to the sides of the street, made way for them, and knelt down on their knees to greet the approaching "duke".
"Lord Duke, what the hell, such a big show! I'm afraid he thinks he's the king!" Marshall's tone was filled with extreme contempt for the duke, and he leaned out half of his body to find out.
"Duke?" Dan Ke frowned, his right thumb and forefinger pinching his chin, "As far as I know, there aren't many people of Duke rank in this royal city, and the most famous one is the one that's dead—"
Dan didn't finish his speculation, and the name of the dead duke, who seemed impossible to him, became unimportant, for the impossible answer became a reality when the duke passed in front of them on a black horse. The duke's face Dan will not forget, his frightened and distorted expression before death has always been reflected in his mind, and the royal knight of San Lucas, Duke Grady, who should have exploded into a pile of minced meat after touching that gate, appeared alive in front of them at this moment.
"This ...... This can't be ......," Danko's expression was like a ghost.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Marshall asked, he hadn't seen Duke Grady, so he didn't understand the impact Danko was suffering at this moment.
"That guy is the Duke Grady I told you about who should have died, and I witnessed his death, so it's impossible for him to be here intact!" Danco wiped the cold sweat that had just broken out on his forehead to calm himself.
"What?!How is this possible? It can't be that you're mistaken......"
"You can't be wrong......" Danco said as he looked at the duke's face as he passed the mouth of the alley, and the latter suddenly turned his head around, staring at the alley where Danco and Marshall were hiding.
The moment Danko's eyes met the Duke's, Danko swore he felt fear. He had only experienced that fear of being on the edge of the abyss once, when the figure of the other world had walked towards him before he lost consciousness.
"Oh no, we've been discovered, get out of here!" Danco pulled Marshall and ran into the alley, chanting a spell in his mind as he ran, and after the spell was finished, a glowing film appeared on the soles of his and Marshall's shoes, and they had already run to the end of the alley.
"Commander, there's no way ahead!"
"Don't stop, just run!"
Marshall, despite his stunned look, rushed straight up to the high wall in front of him, and the moment his foot hit that wall, he found that his foot seemed to be sucked into the wall, and when he stepped on the other foot, he felt as if the whole world was spinning a quarter, and he stepped on the wall as if he were stepping on the ground.
"Commander, this is ......"
"There's no time to explain, let's get out of here first!" Danko urged in front of him, no, looking back from above.
Dan Ke looked down at Duke Grady, who was still not chasing at the mouth of the alley, and the soldiers around the duke did not notice the whereabouts of the two of them at all, nor did they know that they had been lurking in the alley before, and the other people were still kneeling on the ground and did not dare to look up, only the duke's eyes were staring at them. Even though he was far away from the duke, Danko could still feel a sense of oppression, and he felt that the duke's eyes were still in front of his eyes, and he couldn't get rid of it at all. Suddenly, he felt the Duke unleash a wave of murderous energy at them, and then an explosion occurred on the wall below them, sending the masonry to rain down from the massive hole in the wall where the two of them had been a few seconds ago.
"What kind of move is this!" Marshall gasped as he thought he had almost been blown to pieces, and the cloak on his shoulder was blown away by the wind, and then slowly fell to the ground.
Dan Ke sped up and ran up, and he felt that the energy of the explosion caused by the Duke's glare just now was somewhat similar to the Duke's self-detonation he had witnessed before. "Could it be that he did it on purpose?" Danko thought to himself, "no, he was under Nasard's control, and the look of horror and pain on his face before he blew himself up wasn't going to be fake...... What the hell is going on......"
The crowd in the street below was also noticeable by the explosion just now, and the large crowd of soldiers surrounding the Duke began to rush towards them, and they could hear the commotion in the crowd below.
"What happened just now? Is that explosion an enemy?"
"Protect the Duke!"
"Is it the enemy who is coming? We have the four great warriors and the Duke here, so we won't be afraid of that Vasilian!"
"Look, there's two figures up there!"
Only then did the two realize that after the explosion just now, their camouflage had failed, and now the two of them stopped in mid-air on this tower, like two live targets, for the people below to see clearly.
"Has it been exposed...... I have to fight!" Marshall said, and began to pull his weapon into the pocket that hung from his waist.
"Wait, we don't know the strength of the enemy, it's better to retreat first!" Danko grabbed Marshall.
"We're surrounded now, where else can we run?" Marshall gestured to the soldiers surrounding the tower below, and the duke in the distance ready to launch a second attack on them.
"Up up!" Danko shot a golden beam into the air, then let out a beastly roar, and it wasn't long before Danko's mount, covered in dark red and spiked back, the dragon named Tyler Steele flew in front of them. The dragon hovered at the top of the tower they were, letting out a few low roars from time to time.
"Captain, aren't the dragons locked up from above? How are you ......" Marshall's eyes widened so that his eyeballs were about to fall out, he didn't expect Dan to break common sense again and again.
"There are their policies above, and I naturally have my own countermeasures, I won't let those so-called high-level people be restrained!" Dan Ke said and accelerated towards the top of the tower, "Hurry up, it won't be easy to wait for the Duke to attack!"
Before Dan could finish speaking, Duke Grady attacked them again, and the tower began to explode from the bottom to the top, the walls began to peel off, and the entire structure of the tower was destroyed, and began to shake, threatening to fall down at any moment. Marshall also picked up his speed and ran up the wall of the tower, and the wall behind him was blown away after he ran a few steps. When the two of them reached the top of the tower, the devastated tower finally could not bear its weight and began to fall down slopes to the north.
"Jump!" Danco and Marshall leaped towards the dragon hovering in mid-air, and the two bumped into the dragon's flank, and then began to slide down, but Danco grabbed the spike on Taylorsteele's back with one hand and Marshall with the other, so that he did not fall. The tower they had been on collapsed the moment they jumped out, and it fell north, smashing a large number of houses and forming a ruin.
Danco struggled to climb onto the dragon's back, pulled Marshall up, and then said to the dragon beneath him, "Smur!" The dragon immediately flapped its wings and flew westward.
A few minutes later, above a certain forest, two people on the back of a dragon.
"Captain, after going through Andy and Mike, do you still want to risk with the dragon?" Marshall looked at the dragon at his feet, and his tone was a little uneasy.
"I said when I was in Miller that I had a safe bet and that if it could attack us, I would stop it in time. Now we need the power of dragons, and don't forget that you experienced that power two years ago!"
"Don't mention that incident to me, at that time the use of forbidden techniques was completely unavoidable, do you think Lao Tzu wanted to cause that so-called 'big event'?" If Marshall still had a little respect for Dan Ke before, when Dan Ke mentioned that incident, the only remaining respect was gone, and his dissatisfaction was all written on his face, and at this moment he no longer regarded Dan Ke as his superior, but as a trouble that he wanted to get rid of at any time. Although Dan Ke caused his displeasure, the task had to continue, so he asked with great reluctance, "Say, what are you going to do next!"
"The Duke who should have died has reappeared, and he has an unusual strength, so we need to go to the place where the Duke blew himself up again. Danko paused, looked around, and continued, "So we're going to the hallway with that door!"
"Have you finally decided to carry out the main mission?, but they must have stepped up their vigilance just after causing such a commotion, and it would be easier than ever to infiltrate that Bright Castle!"
"Let's land here first, it's too easy to spot Taylor Steele flying in the air all the time. Danko looked at the forest below, he was sure that this was a good place to hide his whereabouts, and there were no enemies chasing him for the time being, "Let's find a way to disguise myself back to Hull later, and then think about how to enter the castle!"
The dragon landed in an empty clearing in the forest at Danko's instructions, and flew away as soon as the two of them disembarked from the dragon's back.
"You sent the dragon to the vicinity of St. Lucas a long time ago, right?" Marshall waved his arm, then pulled a large sword out of his waist pocket, "otherwise how could he have come so soon?" ”
"Yes, I have already ordered Taylor Steele to go to San Lucas first to wait for instructions after receiving the task of infiltrating again, and I have not told you all my plans, considering that the wall has ears. Danke said coldly.
"You're a secret from head to toe, and one day I'll have to figure out how you got to the other world, and what happened to you in the other world!" Marshall thrust his sword into the ground, and watched with interest the bruised tendons on Danko's forehead.
"You ......"
"Why, if you can expose my sore spots, I can't expose you?" Marshall scoffed, "As the head of the regiment, you also distrust us too much, maybe the death of the six of them is not worth mentioning to you!" Marshall had just called out this sentence when he realized that he had gone too far, and he saw Danke's face suddenly turn gloomy and his head lowered.
Suddenly, the ground beneath their feet emitted a burst of white light. Dan Ke looked down in the direction of the light, and he saw that a circular circle appeared on the ground where there was only sand, the outline of the circle was white, and there were a lot of words and patterns written in the middle that he couldn't read, and then, a large hole was cracked in the air above the circle, and the crack seemed to have a kind of suction, sucking all the surrounding leaves, flowers and plants into it. When everything subsided, the rift stabilized, and Danko saw two figures, one tall and one short, walking towards them on the other side of the rift.
"Who is it, the enemy?" Dan Ke quickly pulled out his weapon from the bag, but it was too late to put on his armor now, so he had to strike first. Marshall, on the side, also held the big sword in his hand, and took a posture to stare at the rift.
When half of the first man's body appeared in the breach, Danko rushed forward with his great sword, but stopped just as the great sword was about to hit the comer's head. The unkempt brown hair, the simple casual dress and the sword hanging from his waist, and the deep look in his eyes - he was not an enemy.
"Battle...... Regulus?!" Danco was surprised.
"Danko?!, I saw you as soon as I came over!" Regulus and a blonde girl came out of the rift.
"Aren't you supposed to be happy in Lori, how the hell did you get here......" Marshall said.
"Neil Cross sent us here. ”
"What ?!!"
