The Wind Rises Chapter 233 The Great Wilderness Dragonfall!
(Plus!) )
On the twelfth day after the god of fear dissipated, outside the royal city.
There is a clear difference between today's royal city and normal days, in fact, since last night, many people have been rushing back from various parts of the kingdom of Arestler to return to the royal city.
The number of these returnees is not much compared to the total number of residents of Wangcheng, but the identity of all professionals still makes them very special.
The period after the end of the war with Seventan was a vacation for the soldiers who went on an expedition to Seventan, who wanted to go back to their hometowns to see, or to enjoy a period of time without tasks and without the laws of the army.
The same is true for those members of the Night Blade who participated in the expedition, and most of the members of the Night Blade chose to return to the royal city on this day, for the simple reason that today is a day of mourning for those who died in the Night Blade.
There was no mandatory participation, and even in fact, this day did not exist, but everyone made an appointment to mourn their deceased comrades.
The dead have already been put to rest, and no amount of grand rituals can wake them up, and this memorial service only engraves the memories of these deceased in their minds, allowing them to live in their hearts in another way.
The body has turned to dust, but the fire can still be passed on.
The sky was clear, there were no clouds, and the sun was good, and the grass outside the city that had been deliberately cleared by the magicians was illuminated, and the members of the Night Blade walked out of the city one after another, either on horseback or on foot, and came to the vicinity of this meadow.
Everyone dressed quite casually, few people deliberately wore the kind of formal dresses, most of them were ordinary knight armor worn when patrolling, cloth caftan worn at home, on the whole, the atmosphere at this time was not like a funeral, and the sad atmosphere was not strong.
Dismount and stand.
Stop, watch.
Rows of swords with the names of the deceased written on them were inserted in the artificially created green meadows, each representing a member of the Night's Blade who had lost his life in the war with Seventan.
The sword is not a good sword, nor is it a weapon used by the deceased during his lifetime, everyone is a real person, and the valuable things on the victim are either directly handed over to the family of the deceased, or they are converted into equivalent money first, and then sent down together with the pension.
These swords were all driven out of the private blacksmith workshops in the city, and the different shapes did not correspond to the different characteristics of each deceased, but were just the casual play of the blacksmith master.
These swords won't be here for long, and after a week, the magicians of the Night's Edge will come and bury them in the ground to complete the funeral.
Today's memorial ceremony itself is not about how beautiful it is, how grand it is, how much it has a sense of ceremony, and those who are grateful and respectful will come, and the cold-eyed bystanders who don't feel anything, even if they come, it doesn't make any sense to make a look.
This funeral and memorial service for all the deceased of the Night Blade, there were many people who came, and almost all of the Night Blades arrived, including Edward, Wang Yu and Xiu Geyin's names were actually clearly engraved on the two of the blades.
The rest are the most inhabitants of the royal city, their number is actually slightly larger than the total number of members of the Night's Blade, and many of the residents who were saved by Edward in the Sea of Dead Silence have a respect for the Night's Blade as an organization, the victims of the Night's Blade.
The Cult of Light also spontaneously came a lot of people, the relationship between the Night Blade and the Cult of Light has always been very good, and there are not a few members of the Night Blade who believe in the God of Light, and Father Fang is personally present, standing by Edward's side.
There are still some people from the city guards, these soldiers who have fought with the members of the Night Blade, they can already be regarded as comrades-in-arms, and they are here today to say their last goodbyes to their deceased comrades.
The royal family) came some people, probably to do some face-saving projects, after all, there were also people from the aristocracy, standing with sad faces, doing some scene work, a little bit of people's hearts, these formal things, themselves have always existed, and no one paid attention to them.
Everyone stood silently, looking at the long swords standing in the distance, the atmosphere was not sad, although some people had red eyes, and some people sobbed quietly, but it was more solemn than sad.
The members of the Night Blade, as if they had a soul in their hearts, were almost only one or two steps away, and they stepped forward in unison and bowed earnestly to the tombstones made of these long swords, this salute was a tribute and a farewell.
One of the representatives of the royal family looked at the mourning ceremony of the Night Blade in front of him with a blank face, and under the expression of silent mourning, Pi Bu smiled, and the names of Wang Yu and Xiu Geyin on the tombstone of the blade let him know that Edward had finally given up the search for these two people, so that he could avoid a lot of trouble.
"Boom!"
A deafening bang suddenly exploded behind everyone, and the sound came, resounding throughout the royal city, until outside the royal city, this heavy and huge explosion was still clearly audible.
The crowd turned their heads in astonishment, and the shock of what had happened crept up on everyone's faces, and the smoke and dust rose into the sky, and the clouds above were all stained with gray.
On the top of the mountain called the "Throne", a corner of the magnificent palace completely collapsed and disappeared at this moment, and a huge hideous scar appeared abruptly on the building that represented the supreme power of Alestale.
No one could see what had just happened, no one knew how this could have happened, and so suddenly, in the days after the end of the war, Alestale's palace was raided by an unknown presence and forcibly breached.
The masonry was still peeling away, cracks and collapses spread over the palace, and the terrifying impact not only destroyed the side hall, but also drove countless cracks into the foundation stone of the entire palace, and it was hard to imagine what a terrifying impact it was.
The materialized magic circle at the top of the palace is spinning at an accelerated pace, and the dazzling arcs of light that continue to appear indicate that the most powerful protective circle of the royal family other than the banner of Themis is in effect.
This joint circle of great magicians will tear apart any intruder who dares to enter it with its powerful magic.
"Action, enemy invasion!"
"Hurry up, there are foreign enemies, now is not the time to mourn here."
"Captain, please hurry up and give instructions for action."
The people present were all members of the Night Blade, the elite of the elite, and the sudden explosion surprised everyone, but it didn't make them lose their proportions.
Reacting with great speed, the members of the Night's Edge immediately prepared to enter the city to face the enemy, and judging by the attack that directly blasted a small part of the palace, it was not good.
"Guys, I have something to say to you, as a member of my Night's Blade!"
At this moment, Edward's voice came into the minds of all the members of the Night Blade present, and Father Fang put his hand on Edward's shoulder with a smile, and used the power of light to help him complete the transmission of his words.
"Our Captain, Xiu Geyin, and the member of the Special Operations Group, Wang Yu......"
…………
A few minutes ago, Avia, Ziggy, and Charles, under the cover of the power of the Night Lady, arrived at the square a few kilometers away from the palace, still being rebuilt, and no one was there.
"Here, I'll use this to come out after I find Wang Yu, and I'll leave the contact to Ms. Night."
Charles pulled out three inverted star tarot cards and handed them to Ziggy and Avia.
How crazy it is to storm the royal palace and slam directly into the headquarters of the most powerful forces in a kingdom.
"Hmm."
The girl answered, took the tarot card handed over by Charles, ran her fingers across the air, tore a spatial crack out of thin air, and put the tarot card inside.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
Ziggy smiled in response, took the tarot card, and placed it in a special stone locket around his waist.
One of the special items that the Night Church gave them was originally consigned to the alchemy grocery store, and only this sturdy space storage equipment could withstand the aftermath of the next impact.
"Good luck! Don't die for anyone, save that guy Wang Yu. ”
Charles put away his usual giggle and told Avia and Ziegy very seriously.
Avia and Ziegy gave Charles a thumbs up, and then the wind elementals converged, holding them up as they accelerated and soared into the air.
The wind is blowing, and the girl uses magic to keep Ziggy and herself rising, while Zig checks her status.
The magic guide circuit on the dragon's body has been further engraved and perfected in the past twelve days, and for this rescue, a part of the magic circle with special effects has been specialized.
Through a cloud layer, the height of the two was almost the same as the height of the palace, and their destination was directly in front of the line of sight, the underground of the side hall, where Wang Yu was imprisoned.
"Is the green jade golem ready, even if it is the body of a dragon, it is still too reluctant to withstand that level of impact, and it must use that great druid's holy relic."
The girl looked at Zig next to her and confirmed the situation, at this moment, on the skin surface of Zig's human-like body, bright and complex magic circuits were lighting up, and the magic power flowed through various nodes, forming different effects on its body surface.
"Well, I'm ready, I'm adjusting and optimizing the state of dragonization, and I will complete the dragonization in a very short time, although I have tried many times, but this time, there is no chance of mistakes."
Ziegy said with a smile, feeling the dragon shell that existed in the space that only he sensed, and the magic pattern inscription that was constantly running on it, corresponding to the flow of magic on the surface of the human form at this moment, constantly strengthening the connection between the body and the human form body at this moment.
"Okay, then I'm going to start preparing the magic for the acceleration too."
The girl confirmed that Ziggy was ready, and began to gather her mana to complete the preparation for the acceleration.
The wind elemental whistled in from all directions, and the air currents increased their velocity as they were squeezed, increasing faster and faster, almost making people feel torn apart by these air currents.
These currents of air surrounded the girl and Ziggy, ready to go, and with a single adjustment, these powerful currents would accelerate the speed of the two of them to an exaggerated degree.
A layer of magic shield was placed on the surface of each of the two of them, both to protect Avia, who was relatively fragile, and to allow the increasingly violent air currents around them to better and more completely convert their kinetic energy into the speed of the girl and Zig.
"Boom!"
At a certain moment, the extremely fast flow, which had been compressed several times, and had even begun to heat up in the friction, was reversed by the girl, and unreservedly released its power on the spherical magic shield on the surface of the two people's bodies.
The speed began to rise, and the two of them accelerated abruptly, and the wind elemental magic drove the storm to accelerate the two of them at the same time, and used the invisible blade to split the air flow in front of them, so that the two of them barely had to face air resistance.
The two of them, who were still in a static state just now, had accelerated into an afterimage that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye after a few seconds, and this speed was still rising.
The mana circuits on the surface of Zig's body also took effect, and the light flames appeared behind the two, and the frenzied propulsion force was born from these backward spews of flames, and the high-speed air currents frantically increased the speed of both.
"Whew!"
The flametail light flashed away, and the two of them, who were already terrifyingly fast, began to approach their destination, and some details of the royal palace and the outer wall of the castle were already clearly visible to the naked eye.
But when they were about to enter the two kilometers, the spatial fluctuations flashed, the phase gate was activated, and the figures of Zig and Avia flying at extreme speed suddenly disappeared, and they returned to the starting point again, accelerating in the second stage.
Through the spatial reset, Avia and Ziegy get multiple opportunities to accelerate, six times, which is the limit of the girl's continuous phase gate, seven times the acceleration distance, a total of 35 kilometers, will give the two of them the opportunity to increase their speed beyond the speed of sound.
When the last Phase Gate spell was used, the speed of the two had already reached their expectations, and if it weren't for the large number of buff spells and the defensive magic guide that had been prepared in the past twelve days, the girl's body would have collapsed because it could not withstand this speed.
Ziggy was already engrossed at this moment, there was no sonic boom supersonic speed, it was the speed at this moment, and the royal family did not give any chance to react, and the two flew close to the palace.
"Click."
An hourglass appeared from Avia's hand, and the sand above began to fall downward, and the time stored inside was released at this moment, and in Avia's eyes, everything began to slow down, the strange thing that Charles had given him, the hourglass.
The velocity of time at this moment becomes a quarter, and finally 1. The distance of 2 kilometers is almost instantaneous in the supersonic speed of the two of them at the moment, and the slowed down time gives the girl enough time to react.
Adjust your posture, the void energy surges, and the entire body begins to transform into an ethereal, and the four-ring sorcery and ghost form temporarily ignores all physical damage, and will only receive part of the physical effect of the incomplete object specified by the caster.
And this technique is to prepare for the collision later, in the state of the two of them at the moment, it is not enough to crash through the palace, it is not enough at all, maybe the speed is okay, but the quality is really not enough.
All Ziggy had to do was make up for that quality, and the dragon body and the humanoid husk in the space that only he could feel suddenly began to overlap.
On the earth, it is impossible to increase kinetic energy out of thin air, and it is impossible to change the mass, but this world does not need to follow some rules on the earth, accelerate low-mass objects to a sufficient speed, and then raise the mass, you can really do it, just like Kezig did.
The dragon turned into a true form, and the body of a strong and huge fierce red dragon appeared out of thin air, and the speed was still the same as that before the human form Qig, supersonic speed......
The incredible weight of the dragon, coupled with the supersonic speed, the kinetic energy possessed by Ziggy at this moment skyrocketed to an unreasonable state, which directly made the masking power of the Night Lady lose its effect.
In this way, a giant dragon appeared so suddenly, 1 distance from the palace. 2 kilometers in the air, at supersonic speed against the side hall, created a scene, this absurd scene, actually looks a little funny, but probably no one in the royal family will think so.
The Great Druid Relic, the Azure Jade Golem was crushed by Qi Ge in advance, and the special power instantly covered the surface of the dragon's body, making the dragon scales become emerald green, like jade.
A relentless impact at this speed, even with the strength of a dragon, is difficult to withstand, so it needs some small help, and this item is prepared for this.
This layer of jade-like material is like a layer of armor, and it has extremely strong defense, although it can only withstand a single attack before dissipating.
However, it is enough to complete an impact, and this layer of armor is very heavy, almost equivalent to half a Qig, and the power of the impact rises again.
"Boom"
The dragon covered in green jade armor slammed sideways into the palace at supersonic speed, destroying it and shattering its surface shield like a piece of cellophane, shattering into a pile of useless discrete magic.
Then there are the hard stone bricks with magic patterns carved on the inside, and the outer wall of the castle, which is usually as strong as a bunker, is now turned into powder at the moment of collision.
Unrivaled, unstoppable, earth-shattering dragon strikes out on the castle without warning.
The girl fixed herself to Zig's back in a ghostly state, as if harnessing this terrifying dragon, blasting directly into the palace, crushing everything in its path.
Great Wilderness Dragonfall!
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The green jade shell burst in the collision, completing its mission, and the dragon had completely penetrated into the solid palace, and the entire mountain peak was constantly crushed and impacted, shaking for several seconds.
The shockwave visible to the naked eye appeared directly around the castle and swept out, piercing the entire royal city with a shocking loud sound.
A corner of the palace disappeared into the sky full of smoke and dust in the impact, leaving only a huge crater, and the shock caused by the impact had already left countless cracks and cracks to this palace.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”
"Activate the magic array! Destroy the enemies within! ”
"Let the Royal Praetorian Guard come quickly!"
"What was that?! Dragon!? ”
"Check the foundation of the palace, the impact from the impact just now is likely to directly threaten the underground!"
The palace was plunged into chaos, beyond all expectations, violent to the extreme, ignoring all means of protection, without any plan to speak of, all they could do was to quickly use all the means at their disposal.
The huge magic array began to operate, and the powerful magic power continued to gather to the top of the palace, and the extremely lethal magic was accumulating little by little.
Be ready to unleash multiple devastating spells and clear out intruders through a plethora of mana nodes scattered throughout the palace.
This is one of the most powerful means of defense of the royal family, and after years of layout and improvement, this magic circle is even more destructive than the one in Stevenson College, and it is more destructive in a small area.
"What's that!"
"The one that appeared before, at the time of the demonic invasion!"
At this moment, a mutation occurred, the dark clouds in the sky converged and swirled, and among the swirling clouds, an indescribable huge power began to permeate, and a huge golden dragon eye tore through the space and projected his gaze down.
Sieg turned into a dragon, and the shadow of the Night Lady's power disappeared for a while, and it was only natural that the terrifying being was able to discover the dragon Zig.
And He, who has no emotion to speak of, does not think about anything else, or thinks about anything else, destroys and obliterates Zig, and that is the only thing He has to do.
"Boom ......"
Lightning and thunder, as if the end of the world, when this being descended on the top of the palace, close at hand, that terrifying sense of oppression was felt by everyone in the palace, and the instinctive fear that humans would produce in the face of powerful creatures made them completely stunned and tremble for a moment.
The giant dragon claw that had appeared before, intent on obliterating Ziggy, once again fell from the sky, wrapped in unimaginable immense power, and pressed down, towards the giant dragon that crashed into the pit and couldn't see where it was.
Compared to Ziggy, the first thing the giant dragon claw came into contact with was the giant magic array floating above the palace.
The vast power overflowed slightly, just a trace of power projected outward when touched, and in a few seconds, the magic array was overloaded and collapsed in the frantic alarm, turning into a pile of magic fragments, completely annihilated.
In the same way, a large number of magic circuits that were placed in the palace were also filled with unknown forces after the magic array was touched by the giant claws at the same time, and they exploded, burning and exploding continuously, filling all parts of the palace.
The giant claw continued to descend, but a black sky preemptively pressed against the pit where Ziggy was, and the power of the Night Lady was activated again, once again obscuring Ziggy's existence, "his" mission had been completed, and it was time to go back.
This time, "he" did not stop immediately, the huge dragon claw continued to press down for a while before stopping, as if he felt Ziggy's "he" many times think that Ziggy is here.
The danger was dangerous, and the giant dragon claw almost pierced the cover formed by the power of the Night Lady, but fortunately, in the end, "he" still withdrew his strength after not perceiving Qig.
The vision in the sky has gradually disappeared, and the overall magic protection of the palace has completely collapsed, and this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"It seems that next time, he will not be so easy to fool, Mr. Ziggy has done what he can, next, it's my turn, Wang Yu, I'm here to save you."
Avia muttered in her mouth, glanced at the vanishing vision, and without hesitation, turned around and rushed into the crack that appeared in the underground prison during the impact, she wanted to bring Wang Yu out!
