Chapter 434: Companion (17)

In the fifteenth minute of the appearance of the mountain warriors, the battle finally came to an end.

The two Holy Envoys have maintained strong combat effectiveness from their appearance to their demise, no matter how severe the injuries are and how critical the situation is, it will not hinder their movements in the slightest, but when the injuries accumulate to a certain extent, the Holy Envoy's body, including the armor, will directly disintegrate and dissipate into a mass of white light, so it makes sense that he is classified as an energy creature in this era.

The fearless and fearless fighting methods of the two holy envoys made the battle a little difficult, and in the end, the mountain warriors were "killed" in a total of more than 150 people, of which the ratio of the second and third orders was 3:1, and Li Ang was satisfied with this result - after all, there were two strong men equivalent to the middle and upper echelons of the fourth order on the opposite side, and he and other companions did not intervene.

In fact, compared to the fighting spirit and strength of the mountain warriors, their equipment is indeed a weakness, but this point cannot be improved due to the restrictions of summoning, and Li Ang has no way.

The other side is much better, because there are Fiona and Sapa Cun ZĆ i, and the number of mountain people "killed" in the battle with Quinine is no more than thirty, and this is because Fiona deliberately uses them to attract Quinine's attention, otherwise it will be easier.

At the end of the battle, Quinine shouted angrily, "I am the future Cardinal of the Holy See of Priesthood! and I am a student of the Eyes of Scrutiny!

But his words only drew a cold look from Leon, and the young man reached out and aimed his middle finger at him.

"Die, this qiē has nothing to do with you. ā€

What else did Quinine want to say next? But the sound was drowned out by the shouts of the mountain warriors, and around him there were no less than a hundred figures, the most striking of which were vampire maidens and tall barbarians.

Under such a high-intensity siege. Quinine's protective spells were quickly exhausted, and Fiona burst straight into his side, leaving the first wound in his back, and then the mountain warriors scrambled to pounce, unleashing a suicidal attack without any regard for themselves.

The bishop's physical injuries grew, and his scepter-wielding movement became slower. In fact, he still retains a certain amount of body, but in the face of nearly a hundred opponents' endless attacks...... Quinine's will begins to crumble first.

This discovery made Leon scoff, and it seemed that the clergyman's will was not as strong as he said. In comparison, it may not be as good as the ancestors of the mountain people who stepped out of the Pale Mountains in the first place.

In fact, the outcome of the battle was a foregone conclusion, and no matter how hard Quinine struggled, he couldn't escape the fate he deserved, so Leon didn't go anywhere. Just holding Sophia. Quietly looking at her face.

The sound of battle around him gradually decreased, and Leon suddenly remembered something, and immediately raised his head to look at Caterina beside him.

The knight girl had been sitting here, staring at Sophia blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Katarina," Leon said slowly, "about this matter...... What do you think?"

ā€œ...... Huh?" the girl pulled her hair with her hand, her eyes a little flustered, "What, what, what do you think?"

"Sophia's changes...... You see that too," Leon thought about it. Or decided to speak his mind.

"The bishop said she was the Daughter of Darkness, and I thought Sophia could be a human from the Dark Realm. Or a human being born with dark powers, but either way, this should already be a fact. ā€

"And you're a knight, and you're a regular knight academy graduate, so I'd like to hear what you think. ā€

Katerina's gaze shifted to Sophia's face, then back to Leon, who fell silent.

After a while, the girl's slightly whimpering voice sounded softly, "I—I don't know......"

Caterina's heart is indeed very entangled, although she has only known Sophia for a few months, but the innocent and passionate blonde girl has occupied a very important place in her heart, and along the way, Sophia's trust and dependence on her have been revealed, in fact, she has long regarded this lovely girl as a sister.

But what happened today was something that Caterina would never have imagined, although in the battle just now, in order to save Sophia, she completely abandoned her worries and sanity, but now that the battle is almost over, when she can finally relax, a thought involuntarily comes to her mind.

"Sophia, is she really the so-called Daughter of Darkness?"

There was no doubt about that now, so Caterina didn't know what to do - she was a human being, and after all these years of exposure and education at the Knight Academy, it was common sense that she should definitely have an attitude of disgust and elimination of dark creatures, but with her personal knowledge and the contact she had with Sophia during this time...... The girl was a little confused.

In Katarina's mind, Sophia is a good person, she hasn't done anything bad, she once fought with the mercenaries for the safety of Locketown, she almost lost her life in the underground cave to save herself, she is no different from other humans, even better than most people on this continent, isn't it!

The two diametrically opposed perceptions clashed fiercely in Caterina's mind, and the resulting pain was even more severe for the girl who was strong on the outside and weak on the inside than the pain she had just suffered under the sword of sanctions.

Leon ...... What about you?" asked the girl, who was silent for a moment, looking into the young man's eyes.

The young man in front of her occupies a greater position in Caterina's heart, in addition to that intimate relationship, Leon is actually the most important pillar and support of the girl, so she wants to hear the other party's opinion on this matter. Of course, it could also be a subconscious reason to want to hear something she wants to hear.

Leon understood the conflict in the girl's heart, which could be seen in Caterina's attitude towards Fiona, and he could understand it. But Sophia and Fiona are completely different, and it is estimated that Caterina thinks so too, but the concept of so many years cannot be broken for a while, and she needs to get some encouragement from her mouth...... Or rather, excuses.

The young man smiled, and he pulled a hand from under Sophia, placing it on Caterina's head and rubbing it gently.

The girl seems to enjoy this kind of contact a little, and she is in a more depressed mood now, so she does not have the shyness reaction that she used to.

Leon's voice rang in Caterina's ears.

"Sophia has never hurt anyone, on the contrary, she has helped many people, so whether or not the Dark Daughter does not hinder my affection for her, she is still my companion, and that will never change. (To be continued......)
