Chapter 0006
Xue Ling lay on the big white bed and quietly looked at the roof. He felt that Cyra gave him a very special feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it. After a while, Xue Ling felt dizzy in front of him, and he heard a child's voice crying in his ear, "Brother!
In his dizziness, he saw many familiar things: the snow all over the world, the fire rising into the sky, the men and women embracing, the splashing blood, the shining wings, the struggling dragon, the man standing indifferently above the sky...... They flickered by, like reflections on the surface of the water...... And all the images echoed with the child's cry: "Brother, brother!"
Xue Ling's lips moved, said something, and then fell asleep.
Xue Ling has always been a good child, never like other children to make trouble at the banquet, even if there is a large-scale group fight, he just indifferently let go of the place, standing aside and watching the children who participated in the war break their heads and bleed, from him to the demon clan has always been like this.
However, at the age of thirteen, he provoked a brawl on Princess Tara's thirteenth birthday, which was not too large and not too destructive, but it was the bloodiest and most violent.
It was the princess's birthday, and all the nobles who could be present were present in person, and those who could not be present in person also sent their sons or henchmen, and of course, almost all the teenagers were present. Almost all fathers have told their sons: "If you kid can take down the little princess, then your father will have no regrets in his life, and when the time comes, not only will there be the first beauty of the demon clan as his wife, but also the entire demon clan as a dowry, and then all the men of the demon clan will envy you!"
When they saw the princess today, they strengthened their belief in their hearts and vowed to soak the little princess in their hands. The members of the royal family and the cardinals sat in the upper hall, and the rest of the people sat in the lower hall, and the nobles took the opportunity to enhance communication and toast each other with wine glasses in hand. Xue Ling sat in the corner of the lower hall as usual, he didn't have any title anyway, he just attended the dinner as a spectator.
The few who followed him on weekdays were also dragged by their fathers to communicate with various nobles, and this corner that was generally full of all kinds of neurotics and fools appeared occasionally deserted, but it was very commensurate with Xue Ling's temperament.
He saw a group of thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys gathered in the other corner of the lower hall, talking about something around the one in the middle. After a while, a boy about the same age as Xue Ling walked up to him with a glass of wine, and with a slight tilt of his hand, the whole glass of wine was poured on Xue Ling. "Sorry, my hand slipped. He said with a malicious smile, his tone arrogant.
"Oh, the stupid unintentional mistake is forgivable. Xue Ling said without raising her head, her tone as flat as ever. The wine ran down his clothes, and did not seep into it, but was dry everywhere it flowed, both on his clothes and on his skin.
"Oh, thank you so much!" he said with an angry smile, "yes," he leaned down and whispered in a voice in Xueling's ear that only the two of them could hear, "I heard that you and the little princess are very close, so do you know how many suitors there are? I don't know how many people are looking at her long legs in a daze, and I want to climb up when I see it! And her breasts, I guess you've never paid attention to them, they make people want to bleed from the nose......" he said viciously with the pleasure of revenge.
Xue Ling raised his head slightly, stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to hug him, and when everyone didn't react, Xue Ling gently hugged him, and the red blade destroyed his spine from the bottom up, and he didn't move, and he didn't make a sound, but everyone had noticed the strangeness here. The strange sound of bones shattering silenced the entire hall, and everyone looked at the corner, the white boy gently let go of his hand, and the red blade was drawn from between the bones, and blood splattered. The boy fell, and did not make a sound, but kept twitching on the ground, and the blood instantly stained the large carpet red.
Xue Ling raised her sword and faced the man in the middle of the group, blood running down the blade and dripping on the carpet.
"Hello, my name is Tailin, a fifth-level knight. I heard that you can play level 5 at level 4, so I don't have to keep it and go all out. He said with a smile, drawing his long sword and heading it at Xue Ling.
Everyone got out of the way and respected every battle, even if two five-year-old children fought in front of the Demon Lord, the Demon Lord would avoid it, this is the tradition of the Demon Clan.
Xue Ling was the first to start, a bleak red light flashed, and the sound of gold and iron coming together, and the fiery red and blue spiritual power clashed with each other. In just an instant, Xue Ling jumped upwards in relay, Tai Lin followed, Xue Ling's long sword was not in his hand in an instant, and at the same time, he turned in the air, and his elbow hit Tai Lin's back hard, red and blue spiritual power splashed everywhere, Xue Ling rose again with his strength, and his knee hit Tai Lin's body again. The whole process was coherent and fast, the high-frequency hitting force made Xue Ling stay in mid-air, the long sword was completely cumbersome in this kind of melee combat, and Tai Lin had already put it away, but he had been suppressed by Xue Ling, and could only defend passively.
"This seems to be ...... Tricks used by women, right?" said Sau whispered next to Gea. "Yes, this was originally invented by men, but it turned out that other men were too big and bulky to use smoothly, but women's bodies were slender and dexterous, and they used it very smoothly, so it became a trick for women. However, since Xue Ling is still a child, it is not surprising that she can use it proficiently. However," Hea said with a solemn face, "he seems to have made a little modification, condensing his spiritual power in a cone shape on the joints, increasing the frequency of his attacks, and greatly increasing the strength when he falls. Although it can greatly enhance the effect of the attack, it will put a great load on the body and cannot last for a long time. Presumably the kid was aware of it, he was always on the defensive. ”
Another collision, Tailin suddenly reached out and grabbed Xue Ling's leg, Xue Ling didn't seem to panic at all, and turned the direction of Tailin's body horizontally, and then the other leg swept fiercely towards Tailin's head. Tailin raised his arm to block, and his spiritual power splashed. Tailin let go of his hand and slammed his fist at Xue Ling as he adjusted his direction, with blazing flames. Xue Ling couldn't dodge in the air, indifferently looking at the oncoming flames, her blue eyes were like the cleanest crystal ball in the world, always reflecting the outside world at all times, but she was only transparent. No one knows what Xue Ling will think, and he will never be in a state other than apathy.
The blue light suddenly lit up, and Xue Ling released all his spiritual power at once, and the strong cold air coated everything around him with a layer of crystal ice, and Tai Lin attacked again, and the power was even stronger. This is the gap between level four and level five, Xue Ling has not been able to resist Tailin's frontal attack, because level five is far better than level four in terms of both the quality and quantity of spiritual power, although Tailin has always been defending, but when Xue Ling attacks until the spiritual power of the whole body is exhausted, Tailin's spiritual power is consumed less than half, this is the level advantage.
Tai Lin rushed straight with a raging flame, and slammed his fist on Xue Ling's crossed arms, a faint blue light tenaciously lit up, Xue Ling was beaten and flew backwards, and there were many rays of light circulating on his body, and there were constantly spots of light appearing and merging into his body.
"That's ......" Old man Eureka raised his drunken eyes and looked at it, the expression on his face instantly stiffened, "Combined Level 3 Open Spirit Gathering Demon Pattern?"
"Haha! That's right, old man, I painted it myself, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed!" Garrod said happily, his eyes shining with excitement, "As long as Xue Ling can be activated until the third opening this time, you will lose." Don't forget the bet we made!"
Here, Tailin was also aware of this problem, and kept chasing and fighting, and the firelight illuminated the entire hall. He needed to defeat Xue Ling before he could activate the Demon Pattern to the third opening, this kind of life-saving Demon Pattern that could only be activated when the owner's spiritual power was exhausted was used so rashly, I have to say that the person who could do such a thing was really an absolute madman!
Xue Ling dodged Tailin's attack, the halo around his body rotated wildly, the entire magic pattern was overloaded, a large number of light points did not enter his body, and the blue light was getting stronger.
"Xue Ling and I have modified this magic pattern set to allow it to continue to complete the third opening under extreme overload, and the time only takes twenty seconds, but it can only be used once and then scrapped, it is a one-time one, if only it could be reused......" Garrod said excitedly.
"But if the third opening is completed in twenty seconds, it will not only be the magic pattern that will be overloaded, but also his body, right?" said Häans, pushing his glasses.
"He doesn't care," Garrod was unconcerned, "Xue Ling said that his life was the least valuable thing. But fortunately, he has a good teacher, old man Eureka, do you know why I can complete this magic pattern while studying the mandatory maintenance pattern you gave me? Because we started studying this magic pattern a long time ago, but we haven't told you about it, Xue Ling has already explored the method a long time ago, but our level is not up to the requirements, so we will take your bet. ”
Suddenly, the frantically rotating magic pattern on Xue Ling collapsed, turning into a point of light and disappearing into thin air.
Third, open ...... Tailin's pupils contracted slightly, and then the blue light skyrocketed!
Before Tai Lin could react, he was grabbed by the collar by Xue Ling, and an ice-like fist hit him in the face, and his spiritual power splashed. Before the next punch could be struck, Tylin only had time to cross his arms in front of his face. Xue Ling pressed her knees against Tailin's abdomen, her left hand grabbed him by the collar, and her right fist kept hitting Tailin's crossed arms, and the two of them were falling rapidly.
With a muffled sound, Tai Lin and Xue Ling fell to the ground, and Tai Lin was very sad to cushion the bottom, he felt that his internal organs were about to displace. Xue Ling didn't seem to feel what was going on in the outside world, just punched and punched Tai Lin's crossed arms, even if it was protected by spiritual power, the excessive destruction still overwhelmed the bodies of the two, and Xue Ling brought blood drops with every punch. But he didn't seem to notice it, just punch after punch, as if it was a machine without feeling that only this one action was left.
Another punch fell, and Tailin suddenly shouted, "I admit defeat!" Xue Ling's movements came to an abrupt halt, and at this time, the spiritual power of the two was only a few centimeters apart. A drop of blood landed on Tylin's arm, and it was instantly evaporated by the blazing flames. Another magic pattern lit up on Xue Ling's body, the halo flowed, and the spiritual power of his whole body was forcibly withdrawn, and the magic pattern was quickly repairing the wounds on Xue Ling's body. Mandatory maintenance of the Magic Crest has been activated.
Xue Ling quickly got up, tidied up her clothes in a good time, and took the long sword back into her body. Tailin also immediately stood up, straightened his clothes, and retrieved his weapon. Immediately the crowd gathered again, the waiters set up the tables and chairs again, and all kinds of food and wine were brought up again. In an instant, the scene returned to its previous state, with the adults toasting each other and the children following them...... This is the demon race, a race accustomed to war, which can organize the battlefield and adjust the state in the fastest time so as to launch a surprise attack to win when the opponent is not ready.
