Chapter 10: After the Fierce Battle
The world is covered by cold winds, and even the once beautiful sky is so gray.
The ground that had been swept away by the sword qi just now was covered with ice and snow again in the blink of an eye.
"It's your destiny to face it and be powerless to change it, enlighten you, Prince Silverwing!" Martha said, a wicked smile on her lips, and then vanished in a flash.
However, Ai Suyun only smiled slightly.
The sword in his hand was raised high above his head, and then it was obliquely sealed on his head, his eyes turned to the sky, and a figure that had just disappeared was reflected in his clear eyes.
"The dreams in your mind are as evil and fragile as the unstoppable in your heart. Ai Suyun shouted angrily, and the silver sword qi followed his thoughts, turning into dots of brilliant particles, and before he knew it, he had quietly climbed onto the blade, like a loyal guardian elf.
"Is this your power? This faint light cannot even overshadow the faintest stars in the night sky. Martha still taunted the prince, the tip of the staff in her hand, purple energy quietly gathered, and the rustling of the wind around her was like a sonata of magical power.
The prince suddenly swung his sword into the sky, the sword qi cut through the barrier of the air, carrying the fluttering snowflakes, and then in an instant, the silver light all broke out, accompanied by a loud "bang", the surrounding air seemed to be split into pieces, and the overflowing silver sword qi filled the sky and the earth in a blink of an eye.
The spread of ripples made the sky change its original color, Ai Suyun put away his sword and stood in place, looking at the gorgeous scene left by his blow just now, at this moment Martha's figure has been covered by the aura, Ai Suyun unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
"She can use the 'Flashing Technique', but if she makes the first move before she can react, she will definitely be able to take the lead. He thought, "But why don't I see her figure fall from the sky?"
Suddenly, there was a happy laugh in the air, as if there was some kind of satisfaction.
"Yes, yes, the speed of the sword is so fast that I almost can't react, Your Royal Highness, is this what you really do?" Martha laughed.
Ai Suyun's face sank slightly, and the blade in his hand once again took on a posture to meet the enemy.
The silver aura dissipated, and a purple luster filled the sky, like an evil sun shining on the face.
At this time, Martha's body in the air had been covered by a strange purple transparent barrier, and most importantly, her dress was not stained with even a single snowflake stirred up by sword qi.
"A good mage with plenty of energy is in no way inferior to the most powerful warriors in head-to-head duels. ”
Martha uttered these words slowly, then fell lightly back onto the snow before continuing to taunt her opponent.
"I've been learning swords for so many years, but you don't have such basic common sense? Or is your ability nothing more than that?"
"My 'Shadow Magic Barrier' can easily resist any sword qi moves, strong or weak. Besides, it's my return gift, and you deserve to laugh at it. ”
Her expression became extremely strange for a moment, and the staff in her hand suddenly waved, and a huge ball of purple magic light, wrapped in the slightest sound of magic lightning, and then slashed through the snow riddled with holes, rushing towards Aisuyun.
The powerful power contained in the dark purple ball of light made Ai Suyun feel palpitations.
At first glance, the magical power of the enemy in front of him seemed to be completely inferior to that of the chief mage at the top of the Storm Mage Tower, Alatix.
It is also a powerful magic energy ball attack, but there are great differences between mages of different realms, and this blow, regardless of timing, energy, or speed, can be called extremely good.
The prince could only swing his sword to block, and the silver aura gathered above the blade burst out from the sheathed blade, but it was still a step slower.
The ball of magic light slammed into the fragile blade of the sword with swiftness, and immediately exploded violently under the resistance of the silver light, and the sword body was bounced away with a "bang", and Ai Suyun flew backwards in embarrassment, and the angry roar of the wind in his ears made his consciousness blur for a while.
And in the center of the explosion just now, the frenzied magic breath wantonly destroyed everything, and then in the center of the snow, a huge silver-purple thunderstorm was actually set off out of thin air, and all the snow nearby was rolled up, revealing the blue-brown ground, forming a high-speed whirlpool in the air, and the whirlpool was filled with weird and dazzling purple lightning, accompanied by the huge sound of the whirring wind, making people seem to return to the cruel era of the ancient flood.
"It's hard to imagine that if I continue like this, my strength will eventually run out. The prince thought, and then he swung his sword and struck a wave of swords behind him, and fled backwards without looking back.
"The lives of the villagers, don't you want to protect them anymore?" The storm behind him gradually stopped, and Martha's voice came, and Ai Suyun turned back worriedly.
I saw that the two villagers who were bound behind by magic were trembling at this time, staring at everything in front of them with distorted faces, and their terrifying expressions were as if they had come to hell.
Martha approached them, the purple barrier still around her, and then she raised her staff, and what she saw was about to fall towards the old woman's body.
A shout came from afar, "Please don't hurt them!" Ai Suyun's figure came in an instant, and stabbed at Martha with a sword.
Even if I lose my own life, I can't watch innocent people suffer...
However, his form froze suddenly, and then he found himself in a square, transparent box that shimmered green at some point, and he slammed the barrier with his blade, but to no avail.
"Remember what I said before the war, 'You have a fatal heel,'" Martha looked at the enemy in front of her with a smile.
"That's the stupid thinking that you can give everything to protect others, so I pretended to attack the villagers, and at the same time, I did unmistakably attract your counterattack. ”
"This box is the 'Death Magic Box' that I developed myself in the Shadow Magic World, which can trap all living beings in the world, except for one thing, and that is light..."She said so much in one breath, and then sighed slightly.
"It's over, come back with me, Your Highness the Prince. ”
Ai Suyun held back the tears in the corners of his eyes: "I'm unwilling..."
At this time, an incredible thing happened that no one expected.
"I won't allow you to take His Royal Highness the Prince away like this!" The white-haired old man in the magic restraint watched all this, and then suddenly wept like rain, and then he waved his arms and body vigorously, and then with a "snap", in Ai Suyun's incredible gaze, the chains of magic were actually broken by him together.
"Die, you guy!"
Then he roared and pounced on the witch in front of him, his eyes filled with hatred and anger.
In the middle of the process, he turned back and shouted to the prince.
"Hurry up and break free and escape, Your Highness, use the time I have fought for you!"
Martha looked at him incredulously.
"How is this possible, even if I cast too many spells and my magic power is exhausted, I won't be just like this by an ordinary person..."
In this way, he broke free from the chains of magic that he was proud of. ”
She was stunned, although the barrier around her was still there, but her eyes became distracted for a moment.
"Why the hell is that..."
Then the old man slammed into the purple magic beside her, and was bounced away, but he was not discouraged at all, and pounced on the witch again, and was bounced away again.
The purple aura did not weaken in the slightest, and the old man who had been repeatedly smashed to the ground was already scarred on his body in a short time.
"What a stupidly incorrigible fool, but unfortunately, I am the 'Queen of Magic' of the kingdom, and the powerful magic I have laid is impossible for him to break free no matter what. Martha reacted and said in the same angry tone.
"In that case, let's go to hell. She raised her staff alof, and a flash of purple lightning converged on its tip, and then slashed at the heads of the villagers below.
In an instant, the flow of time in the world seemed to slow down, and in everyone's consciousness, all the things that they did not dare to face in the past came flooding in.
The horror of the villagers, the fury of the wizards, the absolute evil force. In an instant, the colors of everything in the world became misty and gray, and time stood still, until the legendary "that light" was finally born again on a cold winter day.
Just as Martha's staff was about to fall, a huge silver light suddenly flashed on the right side of her body, and the whole process was like lightning slicing through the air, so fast that it was difficult for the eyes to catch it. Then the magical barrier around Martha's body suddenly shattered into a sparkling purple streamer, and then fell to the ground, like a fragment of a contaminated crystal, and disappeared without a trace.
After that, the light passed through the sky above the snow, and on the path he traveled, the snowflakes melted one after another, and the blue-brown ground that was exposed with it actually cracked countless tiny cracks in an instant.
In a flash, he barely took any time to cross the barrier and come to a place dozens of meters behind Martha, and then Martha suddenly fell to one knee on the ground, and covered the wound on the right side of her body with her left hand, panting in her mouth, along with the red blood flowing from the wound.
She turned her head in disbelief, and at this time, the silver light had stopped moving, and at the end of the glitter, a humanoid thing covered in silver-white light stood calmly on the ground, with a tall posture, which was overwhelming, as if from another world.
He turned his head towards the mighty mage Martha.
"I am the light and the righteous person I am today. ”
At this time, the light on his body gradually faded, and he returned to his normal appearance, still the heroic young prince.
Ai Suyun actually broke free from the "Death Magic Box" by himself!
"I said, please don't hurt them. He said lightly, without the slightest hint of tiredness between his eyebrows, all his movements and demeanor implied an indescribable ease, as if he was full of ambition and his mood was as plain as water.
In the distance, the inside of the magic chest was empty, but on the side of the barrier, a huge crack was broken, and the magic breath leaked out of it, and the villagers looked at the prince with incredible eyes, but his eyes were as determined as ever at Martha.
"Your swordsmanship realm has really been 'sublimated'!" the staff in Martha's hand began to draw purple ripples on the ground, and at the same time, Ai Suyun also looked at her.
"Do you know why, the only reason I became a light is because of the faith that protects the loved and the weak, especially in the moment when tragedy is about to strike. ”
"At that time, I lamented my weakness, I desperately wanted to become stronger, but I unconsciously comprehended the sublimation realm of 'Silver Swordsmanship'. And now that you're seriously injured, do you still want to fight?" he said unhurriedly, looking at the other party coldly.
Martha was silent.
Then the staff in her hand began to draw the pattern of "teleportation circle" on the ground as fast as possible, and the moment she was about to leave, she turned back and spoke.
"You are indeed very powerful, but one day you will find that the powerful evil forces on this land cannot be completely eliminated. ”
Then, in the eyes of everyone, the witch Martha, who had already set up the teleportation array, waved the staff in her hand, and in the dotted streamers, her figure disappeared suddenly.
"That light just now, is that your Highness?" the two villagers walked towards Ai Suyun together, but suddenly...
Ai Suyun's body suddenly couldn't hold on anymore, and suddenly fell on the snow, and the pure blue pupils disappeared on the handsome face.
