Chapter 679: Sneak Attack (Thanks to the 'GrayFFF' boss for the reward!) )
Although the God of Killing had recently gained a reputation in the Holy Alliance, it was the first time that Edward had truly seen the true face of the God of Killing.
To be honest, if you just look at the appearance, the killing god in front of you is like a child of a big family at the same time, with a handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament.
I'm afraid that no one would treat it as the killing god who chased down thousands of orcs and slaughtered the entire Golden Shield Family station.
And this seemingly Sven young man is not only really the murderous god in people's mouths, but also quietly killed nine white flag knights of the new temple and Marshall, who has the peak strength of the black flag, tonight.
What's more, he almost single-handedly solved the plan for the new temple tonight, and rescued the heirs of the various holy cities and Adella.
And in order to save Adele, she was also injured and was slashed.
Such a wicked youth, even Edward thought that he could not compare with his youth.
Just as Edward's eyes were staring at the inexplicable amazement in his heart, Gervais had already recovered from his previous murderous awe, and then leaned over Marshall's finger and removed a spatial ring and took it into his arms.
Then he straightened up and looked at Edward, smiling slightly.
After staring at each other for a moment, Gervais didn't say much, and directly put the Crimson Moon in the scabbard and prepared to leave.
Now that the matter has been settled, he is definitely ready to leave, the time limit of the black kiwifruit is running out, and if he stays here any longer, I am afraid it will be dangerous.
And Edward saw that this young man killed the god without saying a word and was about to leave, and glanced at the sword wound on his back, at this time, because the battle had stopped, the blood from the wound had stopped, with the physique of this young man who killed the god, it was not a fatal injury.
So Edward thought for a moment and didn't stop him, but after Gervais turned around, he said, "My Sky City owes you a favor, if you need it in the future, you can make a request with me that Sky City can do!" ”
After all, Edward had never been in contact with Gervais, and he didn't know Gervais's true character, only that this young man was decisive and bold, so he didn't say any other words of thanks, and directly gave Gervais a promise.
And such a promise is not insignificant, Sky City is the first holy city of the Holy Alliance, and what Sky City can do, it is really unimaginable.
When Gervais heard Edward's promise, he paused for a moment, but did not answer whether he would accept Edward's promise or not.
After a moment's pause, Gervais began to walk slowly out of the crowd.
The members of the new temple in the field have been basically killed, and only Netali is still stubbornly resisting under the siege of the two Holy City Lords, but it is clear that he is just a grasshopper after the autumn, and he will definitely not be able to escape tonight.
As for the previous demonic beasts that suddenly went berserk, they had calmed down after Gervais took the purple kiwifruit back to the system mall.
And when Gervais walked out of the crowd, most of the people in the audience were watching him, although everyone already knew that Gervais was the God of Killing.
However, because of the act of rescuing all the young heirs, no one in the Holy City City City Lords said anything to stop him from leaving.
Not to mention that this god-killing young man is already extraordinary, and they have heard Edward's promise, if anyone wants to do anything to this god-killing at this time, then there is still a Duke Edward.
Gvey ...... You wait! ”
Just as Gervais was about to walk out of the crowd, Adele, who had been standing beside Johnson and staring at Gervais, reacted, saw a rather terrifying wound on Gervais's back, and immediately ran towards Gervais.
"Adella, I should leave now! I'll come back to you when I'm free in the future and wish you a happy birthday! ”
When Gervais heard Adele's slightly crying words, he couldn't help but stop for a moment, turned around and smiled at Adella and said a word.
"You...... Don't go and don't go, ...... first Go to my family's manor first to deal with the injuries, with my grandfather here, they will definitely not dare to deal with you!" ”
Adella came close and saw that his back had been wet with blood, so she was naturally worried that Gervais would leave like this, and regardless of the gaze of hundreds of people, she asked Gervais a little intermittently.
"No need, Adella! My injuries are not serious! I'll write to you when the time comes! ”
Seeing Adele's pear blossom with rain and pitiful appearance, Gervais smiled slightly and said to Adele in an extremely subtle tone.
I'm very happy to be able to save this little chick Gervais tonight.
Speaking of which, the reason why Adella had such an encounter was because she asked her to help sell the potion.
So when Edward made his promise before, Gervais did not agree or refuse.
If there is nothing to do in the future, this promise will naturally not be used, but if something really tricky, Gervais will not be stubborn, and he should still ask for help.
"......"
Adella stopped talking, but finally stopped talking and watched Gervais turn around and continue to leave.
"Be careful!"
"Be careful!"
"Hulton, you dare!"
But just when everyone thought that this killing god would leave so safely, when Gervais was about to walk out of the crowd, a figure shining with a strong light suddenly attacked Gervais like a meteor.
And this figure is none other than Houlton of the Golden Shield family.
When Houlton knew that the young man in front of him was actually the killing god, the resentment in his heart immediately rose.
If it weren't for tonight's incident, perhaps after knowing Gervais's identity, Houlton would have found a way to kidnap Gervais and force him to find out the identity of the mysterious apothecary.
However, Gervais saved many of the heirs of the Holy City City Lord tonight, which was enough to offset the things he had done in the past, and it was impossible for these Holy City City Lords to attack this killing god as before.
So, Houlton decided that he had to let the killer die here tonight to avenge his brother and son.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to hunt down this killing god in the future, if you really let this killing god grow, the Golden Shield family will never have a chance to take revenge.
"Give me death! Burst Fire Slash! ”
In the face of everyone's exclamations and Edward's angry shouts, Houlton did not stop, but sped up a few points, wanting to kill this killing god with one blow.
And Gervais was aware of the mutation as everyone exclaimed.
In the face of Houtton, whose strength was more than a cut above Marshall, Gervais did not even dare to draw his long sword.
In an instant, he directly raised the Crimson Moon in his hand, and together with the scabbard, blocked the direction of Houtton's attack.
But Houtton's blow had been planned for a long time, and this burst of fire was equivalent to his killer blow.
Gervais simply used his long sword to block it, but he couldn't stop his power at all, and in the blink of an eye, Soulon rushed into Gervais with a terrifying power.
Rumble!
There was a bang in the field, and Gervay blocked Edward's tenacity, but then there was a deafening thud.
In an instant, the figures of Gervais and Huton were shrouded in smoke and dust.
"Gervais!"
And Adele, because she was closest to De Gervais, was also affected by the aftermath and was directly shocked two or three meters away, but after falling to the ground, Adella did not pause, and immediately stood up and wanted to rush in the direction where Gervais was.
"Adella, danger!"
Johnson originally wanted to rush towards Gervais to stop Houtton, but when he saw that Adele was also rushing towards the middle of the field, he immediately changed direction and grabbed Adela's wrist and dragged her aside.
If a battle breaks out there again later, Adele, a junior magician, will definitely not be able to stand it.
"Houlton, you damn it!"
And Edward also rushed over at this time, and saw that Houlton's blow not only hit Gervais, but also injured his granddaughter, Edward roared angrily, and rushed directly into the smoke and dust.
Dangdang!
Then there was the sound of swords slashing in the smoke and dust.
"Edward, although this killing god is kind to you, it has nothing to do with my Golden Shield family, and he killed my heir and my younger brother, what does it have to do with you to kill him now to take revenge!"
As Edward and Houlton continue to fight, Houlton fights and retreats, and then explains loudly to Edward!
Although he didn't see the corpse of the killing god, even the peak knight of the Black Flag couldn't stop it with his full strength, so Houlton had already regarded the killing god as a dead man.
Now that he has killed the killing god, Houlton naturally does not want to fight Edward to the death, and he is not Edward's opponent.
"You're damned!"
Edward would not have listened to Houlton's explanation, his body was strong, and his long sword continued to attack Houlton with a fierce sword.
He only told this killing god a moment ago that he could make a promise to himself that any sky city could do, but in fact, it was a disguised way to show everyone that he was protecting the killing god.
But the next moment, Houlton suddenly attacked this god-killing young man in front of him, and also injured his granddaughter, which was completely ignorant of Sky City.
"Duke Edward, do you want to go to war with our Golden Shield Family!"
After all, Houlton is a generation worse than Edward's strength, and only the old duke of the Golden Shield family is a strong man on a par with Edward.
It was only a moment's effort, and under Edward's fierce attack, Houlton was already a little powerless to parry.
Seeing that Edward had not stopped, Houlton began to threaten him.
"What about going to war! You don't deserve to talk to me about going to war, and you want to call your father for a war! ”
Edward snorted disdainfully, and the long sword in his hand was even more sharp.
Burst!
Finally, Houlton was tired of parrying and his body slowed down by half a minute, the wrist holding the long sword was numb from the shock, and the palm holding the hilt of the sword was directly slashed by Edward, and the two fingers fell to the ground with the sound of the long sword.
"Ah, Edward, how dare you hurt me!"
Two of his fingers were cut off, and Houlton immediately became furious and roared at Edward.
"I'm not just going to hurt you, I'm going to make you pay for what you did before!"
Edward's words were cold, without any pause, and he continued to slash at Houton.
Wow!
At this moment, the many onlookers of the Holy City City finally made waves!
"Duke Edward! Stop! ”
If Edward had just wanted to teach Houlton a lesson, the other city lords would certainly not have any words.
But now that Duke Edward really wanted Houlton to die, several allies of the Golden Shield family and several other city lords of the top holy cities couldn't sit still.
Immediately rushed towards this side, if Houlton was really killed by Edward, then the Holy Alliance would really be in chaos.
While!
Edward didn't pay attention to the words of the other Holy City Lords, and the sword was already slashing towards Houtton.
But at this moment, Huulton suddenly had an extra sharp shield in his hand.
This pointed shield is more than half a man high, the whole body is golden yellow, and the face is engraved with many simple and delicate inscriptions.
When Edward's sword was slashed, it was directly blocked by this golden shield.
I saw the soft golden light of the golden shield flicker, and with the sound of metal colliding, Edward's cold sword disappeared without a trace, and Houlton also saved his life because of this sharp shield.
"Duke Edward, you can't kill Houtton!"
And those city lords who came finally arrived at Edward and Houlton at this time, and several people hurriedly blocked between Edward and Houlton to persuade him.
"What? You have so quickly forgotten who rescued your children? ”
At this time, it was impossible for Edward to kill Houlton again, not to mention the obstruction of these city lords.
It was the golden shield that Houlton took out, and if Edward did not use Xemol, he would not be able to hurt Houtton.
However, if the strongest means are really used, then the entire Cold Jade Manor will probably become a ruin today.
"Duke Edward, we didn't mean that, it's just that if you really kill Houtton, our Terran Holy Alliance will fall into civil strife!"
Several city lords were so squeezed by Edward that their faces turned a little pale, and it was obvious that they also knew that they were ungrateful for doing so.
However, let Houlton be killed by Edward, and they will definitely not agree
"Gervais! Are you okay! Gervais! ”
And as Edward and Houlton fought in between, the smoke and dust where Gervais was at this time had cleared, and when Adela saw Gervais lying in a pit, she immediately broke free from Johnson's wrist and rushed to Gervais, holding him in her arms, and crystal tears kept falling.
"Humph!"
Hearing Adele's crying urgency, Edward glared at Hutton and the others fiercely, and without further delay, he quickly walked towards Gervais in the rear.
When he came to Gervais's side, Edward first probed Gervais's breath and found that Gervais still had such a weak voice, and his heart was immediately relieved.
Without any hesitation, the horse took out a spirit fruit from the storage space and put it in Gervais's mouth.
This is a sacred tree fruit, which contains incomparable spiritual power, whether it is used to heal injuries or cultivate fighting qi, it is very effective, and it is an extremely rare and precious fruit.
"Take him back to the manor! Bring his sword with you! ”
After feeding the spirit fruit to Gervais, Edward shouted to the guards around him.
"Yes, Lord Duke!"
Several guards hurriedly lifted Gervais up cautiously and headed towards the open space in front of him where the carriage was parked.
"Adella, don't worry, the god-killing young man has an extraordinary physique, there should be no problem, now go back and let Bedford treat him, it will be fine in a few days!"
Edward helped Adella behind several of the guards, whispering to Adèle to comfort her.
"Well, grandfather!"
Previously, Adella also saw that Gervais was indeed still breathing, and when she heard her grandfather's words, she immediately felt a lot more relieved and nodded in response.
