"I'm talking about my lords."

Morgan grimaced, "With this Miss Nightingale to show me the way, do I still need to follow?" ”

He can see that everyone in this line except him is an inheritor, and only he is a genuine ordinary person.

These bigwigs are not afraid of the monsters along the way, he is scared to death.

It's a melon and a car overturned.,I'm going to fight with the monsters later.,Maybe you'll die of some kind of unknown AOE.。

"I paid for it."

Roy turned around and said kindly, "Besides, don't you think it's safest to stay with us?" ”

"That's right......" Morgan thought about it and found that this was indeed the truth.

Only by hiding under the arms of the big guy, as an ordinary person, can he find a sense of security in this wilderness infested with demonic beasts.

"Everyone, be careful!"

The nightingale, who was at the forefront of the group, was the first to detect the enemy, and she slowed down, bent her bow and arrows, and shot a beam of pale cyan arrows condensed by the wind elemental towards a bush.

In the next moment, a hyena the size of a lion sprang out of the bushes.

The hyena was born very strangely, with two heads on its neck and left shoulder, and a bulge of flesh on its right shoulder, as if it had not yet developed.

On the foreheads of the two heads, a red gemstone in the shape of a pebble grows.

The hyena pounced on the nightingale, and Cynthia slapped her horse forward, her sword burning with golden flames, splitting the hyena in mid-air.

Neat.

The hyena fell to the ground, and the parts of its body behind its front paws were completely severed, and it stands to reason that even a tenacious demonic beast would be directly severely injured and killed under such mortal injuries.

But the hyena could still struggle, and the gem on its forehead glowed with a strange red light, and at the same time, the cut wound began to regenerate at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If it weren't for the power of the Sword of Dawn, which continued to scorch its wounds, it might have regenerated even faster.

"Oh?"

Cynthia's eyes froze, and her face became serious, "It's actually a three-headed dog of hell." ”

"It's particularly tenacious." Roy scrutinized the two-headed dog, known as the Three-Headed Helldog.

Just by speaking, its torso had regenerated to its waist.

"The Three-Headed Dogs of Hell are a branch of demons, and if you want to destroy them once and for all, you must break their core."

Cynthia raised her sword again, "And the core of the three-headed dogs of hell is at the place of their foreheads. ”

The golden greatsword sliced through the gems on the two skulls with precision, and the three-headed dog of hell fell to the ground, finally stopping its struggle.

"Demonic ......"

Roy muttered, "I've only seen anything about demons in history books.

"In the year 372 of the Universal Calendar, Sidenia was hit by the worst natural disaster to date, and the demons drove the beasts of the wilderness to approach the World Tree, and at one point besieged humans under the city of Sidneya for several months.

It was also because of this incident that Sidneya formalized its policy of defending the city. Begin to expand the Lower Town, building a second wall for Sidenia to defend against the next possible beast tide.

"At the same time, Sidney has also completely focused on the World Tree, because if it is besieged by the beasts again, Sidney can only survive on the materials in the World Tree."

"Not bad." Cynthia nodded, "From ancient times to the present, the greatest natural enemy of human beings in this land is demons.

"The history of the confrontation between humans and demons goes far beyond the siege of six hundred years ago, long before the founding of Sidney, we have been fighting such monsters in the wilderness.

"And every time I encounter them...... It's all a catastrophe for humanity. ”

"When you enter the Inheritor Academy, you will learn more about the knowledge and history of demons. Because if you want to deal with powerful demons, it is something that only inheritors can do. ”

"But now we've met it in the wilderness." Roy took a deep breath.

"You mean that the catastrophe that the demon harnessed to besiege Sidenia six hundred years ago will be repeated today?"

"Very likely."

Cynthia had a serious expression, "For more than six hundred years since then, the Sentinels have not found any traces of demons in the wilderness around Sidney, and now demons are attacking again with demonic beasts......

"Sidnia, we must be on alert immediately."

At this moment, in the woods not far from here, a flare rose from Ranran.

"It's Black Flag's flares, we've found them!"

Nightingale looked in the direction of the flare, her body wrapped in the air current, which quickly coalesced and turned into a pair of pale cyan wings behind her.

The elven third-order skill "Elven Wings", under the protection of Joyeus, she can temporarily use the third-order inheritance skill.

"Nightingale-san, wait for me!"

Seeing the nightingale waving her elven wings and flying away in a flash, Arya let out a mournful cry and hurriedly patted her horse to follow.

Joyeuse's shelter is limited by distance, and with her current strength and level of control, she can only shelter allies within a hundred meters of her.

In an instant, the nightingale had flown over the woods, and through the direction of the wind, she "saw" the tragedy that was happening in the woods.

The mercenaries of the Black Flag fell one after another under the siege of the three-headed dogs of hell, and on the side, a familiar figure was constantly attacking the three-headed dogs led by them, like crazy.

It was Hitomi, her leather armor almost torn to strips, the wounds on her body being corroded by the dark and healed by the effects of the burning blood, but she didn't seem to feel any pain anymore.

The crossbow that had shot the empty receiver was tossed aside, and she clutched the dagger in her hand, adding scars to the adult three-headed Hellhound.

But since it didn't hurt the core, any injuries on the torso were like scratching the devil's boots, and they weren't worth mentioning.

The three-headed dog of hell let out a low roar, and the human in front of him was more resistant than expected, and it was already a little impatient.

Its body bent forward, ready to strike the final blow, and the target was the woman's neck.

As long as the neck is broken, no one will have a chance of survival.

And at this moment, a sharp wind blade suddenly struck in the air.

The spiritual strength of this wind blade was not very high, but it just disrupted its offensive rhythm, and the three-headed dog of hell took a step back to avoid the wind blade, looking around vigilantly.

Naturally, it had spotted the nightingale in the air, but it was not her who was on guard, but who was contemplating in the air...... An increasingly intense aura of light attributes.

The next moment, a flash of light was reflected in its crimson pupils.

It was a literal flash, and the beam pierced through its body against the three-headed dog of Hell, giving it no time to react.

Is there anything faster than the speed of light?

Cynthia silently appeared behind the Three-Headed Hellhound, lowered her sword, and immediately after, the core of each of the Three-Headed Hellhound's heads shattered at the same time.

Holy Knight Rank 6 Skill: "True White Flash".

The three-headed dog of hell, who had just been ferocious, was as vulnerable as an ant in front of her, and as the deputy head of the Holy Knights joined the battlefield, the tide of battle in the woods turned in an instant.

"Sister!"

Nightingale jumped down from mid-air, she hugged Hitomi En tightly, and choked up, "It's okay if you're okay, it's okay if you're okay......"

Hitomi gasped heavily, her eyes were scarlet, and she pushed the nightingale away, grabbed her by the throat with one hand, and lifted her up.

"Nightingale!"

Jiang was startled, and the cold star in his hand surged, and he was about to condense a cold ice mallet.

"No!"

Nightingale shook her head in pain, she felt the force coming from her neck increasing, almost crushing her neck, but she didn't resist, just raised her hand and gently stroked Hitomi's blood-stained face.

"Sister, it's okay anymore......"

She said with difficulty, "We ...... ...... home."

The next moment, she was thrown far away, Hitomi En half-knelt on the ground, grabbed the wrist of her left hand tightly with her right hand, and squeezed out a few words from her throat: "Stay away from me......

"I can't control myself."

Jiang Yiyi came back to his senses, quickly took out a tube of blue potion from his arms, opened the lid and handed it to her mouth: "Please drink this!" ”

This is a countermeasure that can reduce the side effects of burning blood, and Hitomi En drank it down, and then lay motionless on the ground.

"Sister, are you okay?"

The nightingale pounced on her again, teary eyes.

"Don't make noise...... I'm not dead yet. ”

Hitomi was weak, "You go take care of the other brothers first, let me rest for a while." ”

On the other side, Cynthia clears the surrounding three-headed dogs of Hell, and Roy and Arya gather the wounded of Black Flag together for treatment.

After Jiang Yiyi carried the medicine "Holy Water" that he carried with him to neutralize the corrosive effect of the dark power, Arya used the Holy Knight's second-order skill "Holy Healing" to help them recover from their injuries.

The mercenaries who were still breathing a sigh of relief were out of danger and in stable condition.

However, more than half of the mercenaries were still mortally wounded in the battle, and were killed before they could arrive.

This is a helpless thing, in front of the demonic beast, the strength of ordinary people is too weak.

"Roy ......"

After resting for a while, Hitomi reluctantly stood up, "It seems that Black Flag owes you another favor." ”

Roy was helping the mercenaries to bandage their wounds, and he smiled and said, "If you want to thank Lord Xie Cynthia, it was her hand to clear the demons." ”

"Don't thank me, it's my duty to protect you."

Cynthia put her sword back into its sheath and walked over, "The current situation is not optimistic. The Three-Headed Hellhounds are the minions of the Demon Lords, and they never act alone.

"Since they're here, it's a sign that the Demon Lord is coming...... Or has arrived. ”

Roy hissed, feeling a little headache.

Whether it's a demon or a demon lord...... Is this something they should be facing now?

If I'm not mistaken, I, Arya, Jiang Qiyi, and Nightingale are just a group of fifteen-year-old girls who haven't yet enrolled in the Inheritor Academy, right?

Give us a little time to develop!

"Anyway, let's go back to Black Flag's C4 gathering place first."

Cynthia said, then glanced at the wounded in the black flag, lost in thought.

They had arrived here as fast as they could, and there was no carriage to transport the wounded, and if they had to take the wounded with them, the speed of the return journey would have been greatly reduced.

As if seeing Cynthia's hesitation, Hitomi spoke first: "My lord, if it's not convenient, we can find a hidden place nearby to hide temporarily, and when you call for reinforcements, it's not too late to come back to meet us." ”

"I'm going to stay here with you!" The nightingale stood firmly beside Hitomi.

"Obedient!" Hitomi said softly, "Go back with Lord Cynthia, it's too dangerous here." ”

"You said, sister, we are family."

Nightingale stubbornly looked her in the eye, "Do you want me to be a betrayer who abandons my family?" ”

Hitomi was speechless.

"That's not what I meant, Your Excellency."

Cynthia said slowly, "Everyone here will be escorted back by me, I was just thinking that Sidney's reinforcements should have arrived at the C4 gathering place where the teleportation point is located by now."

"Then it's time for us to fight back.

"At this juncture when the satellite city is about to be built, the demonic invasion is a major test for us.

"If we can't defend ourselves against the demonic invasion, we'll have to retreat to the city of Sidney as we did six hundred years ago, and building satellite cities in the wilderness will be a dead letter.

"This is our second encounter with the devil since the founding of Sidney. This time, we are not only going to win, but we are going to win beautifully, and I believe we can do that. ”

"So rest assured, Your Excellency, we will not give up on anyone in the wilderness, we will always be with you."

She placed her right fist on her left chest with a solemn expression, "The glory of Sidenia lives on." ”

Hearing this, Hitomi couldn't help but be in a trance.

I don't know how long it's been since I've heard this.

Her mind seemed to be pulled back eleven years ago, when she had just entered the Inheritor Academy, and on the day of the entrance ceremony, everyone had to swear an oath to the temple with a fist, and say the words at the end.

This ritual is indeed a kind of chivalry, it has its origins in the ancient times before the birth of the Sidneyan civilization, when knighthood was not only a profession, but also a status and symbol.

It symbolizes the dedication and protection of the prostitute.

When the inheritor bows to the temple and swears, each inheritor becomes a knight of Sidney.

They carry the power of the gods and the hope of mankind as they fight for the future of Sidnia.

"Thank you, Mistress Cynthia."

Hitomi also shook her fist in return, "Everyone in the wilderness will remember your help.

"The glory of Sidenia lives on."
