The return of the Duke of the Frontier has put the entire Blackstone Territory on the highest level of alert.

On the surface, the province of Rafa is as calm as ever, and the eldest son of the duke, who is the current manager of the Duke's Palace, that is, Fuma's elder brother, only knew that his father, the Duke of the Border, had returned from a serious injury, but he didn't even know where he was healed.

The Duke's Mansion and the Blackstone Collar, one light and one dark, hindered the investigation of others and bought precious time for the recovery of the Duke of the Frontier.

However, to everyone's surprise, for four consecutive days, until the last day of the end of winter, no enemy appeared, which made Roy breathe a sigh of relief and at the same time, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

In other words, he is the enemy of the Duke of the Border, and he has fought to this extent, what do you say, you also have to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, what kind of consideration did the temple have to choose to stop fighting?

Too scared to move? Or is there something else more important?

In a few days, the intelligence system of the Duke's Palace was enough to collect some information about the earth-shattering battle between the Duke of the Frontier and the Shrine in front of the Privy Cathedral of St. Fuyer, the royal capital.

Of course, it is only superficial information, and the inside story of the real battle, except for the parties involved, I am afraid that no one knows.

But it was this superficial information that surprised Roy very much.

Within a radius of a thousand meters, everything except the Privy Council was turned into powder, and within a thousand to three kilometers, everything was shattered, in fact, if it were not for the strong to stop it, the aftermath of the battle would have spread even more.

Such exaggerated destructive power, except for the absence of nuclear radiation, is comparable to the central area of a small-yield nuclear bomb explosion!

This gave Roy an intuitive and clear understanding of the strength of the legendary Extreme Knight.

This is simply a humanoid self-propelled nuclear weapon!

It is no wonder that the border duke guarded the imperial frontier, which the Kolai Empire has not been able to break for decades.

The temple in the center of the royal capital, the Privy Cathedral, was also completely closed after the war, and no one could enter.

But one way or another, the absence of enemies is a good thing.

After a few days of recuperation, the Frontier Duke's adaptation to the new heart in his body is also nearing the end, and according to Shanica's estimates, the Frontier Duke will be able to wake up from his slumber later today, or tomorrow at the latest.

It made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

During this time, perhaps due to the sense of urgency brought about by the tense situation, Roy achieved remarkable results in the research progress of the fourth-order exclusive specialty of the "Starlight Paladin", reaching 50%, and the secret skill of the Breath of Fire [Burst Flame] trait "Burning Heart" was also pushed to the level of "Burning Heart Extreme" in one fell swoop.

Compared to the "Burning Heart: Secret" at the Gold Rank, the effect of "Burning Heart: Extreme" is further enhanced, giving the Legendary Knight a nearly double increase in fighting spirit, speed, and strength.

Of course, the consumption also increases.

The consumption of "Burning Heart: Extreme" is a little higher than the recovery of the legendary Dou Qi Body, and once the secret technique is activated, there is a possibility that the Dou Qi will be exhausted.

However, compared to the increase in combat power it brings, this consumption is not a big problem.

The "State of Destruction", which consists of "Heartburning" and "Enraged Status", will definitely bring Roy more explosive power.

Of course, the state of destruction hurts others and hurts himself, and Roy will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary, but rather, he hopes that he will not use it.

At the end of winter, the heavy snow that had been falling for a month suddenly stopped, as if the mouth of the heavy snow had been suddenly blocked.

The red sunset reflects the snow-capped earth in a golden red.

There was no heavy snow, and the lords, who had been hiding in the house for a whole winter, couldn't wait to get out of the house and began all the preparations for early spring.

In the small courtyard, Roy let out a long breath, with him as the center, there was not a single snowflake in the courtyard within a radius of ten meters.

"Brilliant light, it's almost ......"

"The saturation brought by absorbing the top-level magic crystal, and today, it has finally disappeared completely, and you can continue to absorb the next piece."

Roy sighed.

The cultivation speed of the top-level magic crystal was far from as fast as he imagined.

It takes about five days to absorb one piece before it can absorb the next one.

If it was a "normal" legendary knight like Fuma who needed to refine top-level magic crystals, the cooldown time would just be covered by the refining time, and only two days would be wasted in between.

But for an "unusual guy" like Roy, the time wasted was a full five days!

In this way, the time it took to absorb three top-grade magic crystals to cultivate to the upper limit of the legendary one-star was only about 10 days faster than his own cultivation.

In fact, during the period of waiting for the cooldown, Roy's progress in the Legendary One-Star stage went from absorbing 33% of the first top-level magic crystal to 53% of his self-cultivation.

By the time the next top-level Crystal is absorbed, this progress will reach 86%...... Well, he didn't even have to wait to use the third top-level magic crystal, he would be able to cultivate to the upper limit of the legendary one-star by himself.

This also saves a top-grade magic crystal...... For a moment, Roy didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.

Returning to his room, Roy directly took out a top-grade magic crystal from the spatial ring and directly absorbed it.

The second time it is absorbed, transformed, and lifted very quickly.

In less than a few hours, Roy opened his eyes, and at this moment, his fighting spirit and soul fire strength had reached 86% of the legendary one-star stage as scheduled.

"It will take 4 days to try to break through the legendary two-star......"

Muttering to himself, Roy stood up and pushed the door open.

At this moment, the sky has completely darkened, and in the dark sky, a crimson crescent moon hangs quietly, bringing a different kind of tranquility and tranquility.

"Treading ......"

Light footsteps came from the entrance of the courtyard, and Roy looked up, only to see a girl wearing a goose yellow sweater and long skirt, with a hazy and beautiful figure against the moonlight:

"Young Master Roy, Lord Frontier Duke is awake."

The girl's voice is like a lingering spring breeze, which makes people's hearts intoxicated.

Roy, who originally looked at the girl and was a little "ready to move", after hearing this, his eyes froze: "Oh...... I'll take a look. ”

During the time when the Duke of the Frontier was unconscious, Fuma stayed by his side in the Hidden Place.

As for the space witch Latiyi, she practiced in the different space she constructed - the situation was critical before, and she had just completed her talent evolution before she had time to adapt, so she hurried to the royal capital to rescue the border duke, and now she is back, just taking advantage of the time when the border duke is recovering, to adjust her cultivation and adapt.

Walking all the way, Roy soon came to the hidden place.

As soon as he stepped in, Roy's attention was drawn to the man sitting at his desk.

His face was resolute, not angry, and gave people the feeling of carrying the mountains on his shoulders without waiting for leisure, and his unclothed upper body had a white bandage wrapped around his chest.

- Duke of the Border, Brayton Soros!

It's not a short time since I've known the Duke of the Border, but it's only now that Roy really sees his true face.

In Roy's perception, the Duke of the Border did not have the slightest fluctuation in his fighting spirit, just like an ordinary middle-aged man who had just recovered from a serious illness and was "slightly" stronger.

Only the [Infinite Desire God] can vaguely scan the extremely subtle and looming fluctuations of the Dough Qi on the Border Duke's body.

This discovery shocked Roy's heart.

In the past, when he was at the Bronze, Silver, and Gold Ranks, even if he was just a newcomer, he could use [Infinite Desire] to accurately perceive the Dou Qi that existed at the peak of the Upper Rank.

There is only one explanation: the strength of the Duke of the Frontier is by no means what the outside world has rumored, it is the limit of the legend, although it is not sure whether he has stepped into the supreme realm above the legend, but it is definitely far beyond the limit of the legend, and it is faintly beyond the category of the legend.

After the shock, Roy quickly adjusted his mood, he came to stand a few meters in front of the border duke, and bowed slightly: "Hello, Lord Duke." ”

Roy Tulumbel...... It's like, seeing you reminds me of Jace, of the time when the two of us practiced together......"

The Duke of the Frontier had a smile in his eyes, and his tone was gentle, without the slightest hint of the rumored domineering posture in the face of foreign enemies, and some were just the affinity of the elders when they faced the younger ones:

"I've already learned part of what happened from Lathie's mouth."

"Thank you very much for your help."

"Temple, huh...... I didn't expect them to be willing to pay such a price in order to keep me, which was really beyond my expectations. ”

When he heard the Duke of the Frontier say "Latiyi", Roy noticed that Latiyi, who was wearing a cheongsam in a cloud-patterned palace uniform, was standing quietly in the corner of the room.

The Hidden Place is a different space, and in it, it is very easy for Latiyi, as the Great Witch, to hide her magic fluctuations.

Noticing Roy's gaze, Latiyi nodded slightly.

Roy smiled back.

"Speaking of which, there are some aspects that I still don't understand." The Duke of the Frontier looked at Roy with a gentle gaze:

"That's what I'll call you, Roy."

"Can you explain to me why little Fuma is with you?"

Hearing this, Roy was so shocked that he coughed several times, and before he could speak, Fuma Jiao on the side said angrily: "Father, what are you talking nonsense, Roy and I are just allies!" ”

"Yes, yes, we're just allies." Roy nodded repeatedly, indicating that Fuma was right.

Although the heroic Fuma does poke at his point, the relationship between him and Fuma is indeed innocent.

It's just that inexplicably, he has a different kind of nervousness.

"Oh...... Ally, I'm sorry, but that's a little bit wrong with what I'm saying. The Duke of the Frontier waved his hand:

"But in this case, the curse of the 'Displacement Scale' that Little Fuma received should also be solved by Roy, right?"

Although it was an inquiry, the tone of the Duke of the Frontier was very determined.

Regarding Fuma's "fateful death", the Duke of the Frontier is naturally very clear.

In the past ten years, he has tried all the methods he can try, including the various taboos that he and the witch will treasure, but none of them can be used to make a clamp for the "displacement balance".

Although the level of the displacement balance is not the highest A+ grade among A-class taboos, its unique mechanism makes it useless for many A+ taboos.

Only the "A-class forbidden item-Lost Ice Coffin" used by the moonlight witch Cehir a hundred years ago can effectively restrain and replace the scales.

If you want to solve the fate of death, you must have a "lost ice coffin".

In other words, the "Lost Ice Coffin" is in Roy's hands, and it can also be deduced that in the boiling Moonlight Witch breaking incident a month ago, Roy, the "little lord" who has no sense of existence, has played a much bigger role in the secret than others imagined.

And the whereabouts of the missing moonlight witch Cehir, presumably, Roy also knows something......

"I really underestimate you......"

The Duke of the Frontier sighed.

Now in close contact, he was stunned to find that the fluctuation of Roy's fighting spirit had reached a legendary star, you know, in the records of the intelligence system two months ago, Roy was just an ordinary person who was not even a trainee knight......

Regardless of whether Roy's talent suddenly exploded, he went from an ordinary person all the way to the legendary realm in less than two months, or whether Roy has been hiding himself deeply for so many years......

all show that Roy is not simple.

"It's me." Roy did not deny the Frontier Duke's inquiry.

Until now, there is no need to hide it.

He is no longer the "eldest son of the little lord" who was slaughtered when he first crossed over, but a true legendary knight.

Not only that, after knowing Roy's talent, even if the space witch Latiyi has a relationship with the Duke's Palace, if Roy and the Duke's Mansion have a conflict, Latiyi, including the Witch Society behind her, will inevitably stand behind Roy.

This involves the fundamental interests of the Witch Society, which cannot be compared with any friendship.

Many witches, including Shanica, Ace, and Lilia, are Roy's solid backing and form an unbreakable alliance.

In fact, if he could, Roy would not want to appear in front of the Border Duke now, after all, he is a relatively "calm" person, and he is not willing to show himself in front of others when his own strength is insufficient.

But the current situation no longer allows him to continue to grow and develop.

Others, including Fuma's father, the Duke of the Border, may not be able to fully believe in the prophecy.

After all, although this winter has been full of snowstorms and monsters, in the end, the world has not yet seen the precursors of a major disaster.

Roy, who has witnessed the apocalypse of the "Seventh Realm of Original Sin - Realm of Lust" and knows the existence of the "Abyss", knows very well that the power of the mutant Abyss that caused the appearance of the Warcraft means that there is really a catastrophe coming to this world!

He still clearly remembered that the black viscous raindrops that fell from the sky caused all living beings to have terrifying deformities.

This world is the world that Roy lives in, so even if it's just for himself, he will do his best to prevent the disaster from coming.

And if you want to do this, it is far from enough to rely on him now.

Although he is confident and gives him enough time, he can climb to the highest peak in this world, but in reality, what he lacks most is time.

So, he needs allies who are strong enough.

Including the Witches, but also the Frontier Dukes.

"Lord Duke, may I ask about the details of the battle that day? Did you win, or did the Chief of Divine Punishment win? ”

"I have learned from Lady Lathia about your wife, Lady Maina."

"But what makes me wonder is why the temple would be willing to make a feud with a strong man like you for the sake of a witch?"

"It's a bit disrespectful to say that, but the temple enslaves so many witches, no matter how you say it, it's not a single Lady Maina, right? Even if her identity is a little special. ”

Roy asked.

This was what he had always wondered.

The Duke of the Frontier more than ten years ago, not long after he first entered the legend, even if he could defeat the legendary three-star, in the eyes of the temple, it was nothing.

But now, the Duke of the Frontier has a heavy army in his hands, and he is still a super strong man whose strength surpasses that of the Chief of Divine Punishment, with such weight, the temple is still so bent on going its own way?

"In that battle, I won a small game."

"And I don't know why the temple is stubborn about refusing to release Maina......" The Duke of Frontier also had doubts in his eyes, he paused, looked at Roy, and finally said slowly:

"I went to the royal capital this time under the guise of taking military funds, and its purpose was to find out the root cause of all the calamities that Xiao Fuma prophesied."

"I suspect the temple has something to do with it."

"Therefore, I chose this time to challenge the Chief of Divine Punishment."

"On the one hand, it's a test to see if I can take Maina away, and on the other hand, it's also a test."

"Only by muddying the water can you catch the real big fish."

"It's a pity that the mastermind behind the scenes is too cautious, even in the end, he didn't shoot directly, but the temple, in order to keep me, was willing to pay a huge price and use four A-level taboos."

"It makes me even more sure that the temple is closely related to it, if not behind it."

"Right now, since we can't find the real mastermind, we can first target the temple and force it to show its feet."

A fierce glint flashed in the Duke of Border's eyes, and the fleeting coercion made Roy startled.

"Temple......" Roy took a deep breath.

He understood that by saying all this, the Duke of the Frontier regarded him as "his own man", otherwise, it would not have been possible to say these things at all.

"What's next?" There was a guess in his heart, but Roy asked out loud.

He needed an exact answer from the mouth of the Duke of the Border.

"Needless to say?" The Duke of the Frontier grinned slightly, and a cold light appeared in his eyes: "In the province of Rafah, no one from the temple is welcome. ”

Roy's heart was shocked, but what followed was a mixture of excitement and apprehension, and he couldn't help but ask, "Won't this cause a full-scale counterattack from the temple?" ”

It's not that Roy looks down on the Duke of the Border, it's just that the Temple, as one of the two overlords of the Glow Empire, has accumulated over hundreds of years, and its strength is extremely powerful.

Don't look at the Frontier Duke's victory over the Divine Punishment Chief, but at present, the legendary extreme combat power is only the Border Duke, and the Witch Society may have legendary extreme combat power, but the number is definitely not much, and what about the temple? Among the twelve seats of divine punishment on the surface alone, there are at least four legendary limits, let alone secretly.

In case of an emergency to the temple, no one knows what kind of hole cards they will come up with.

To Roy's question, the Duke of the Frontier just smiled: "Don't worry, they won't dare to do this." ”

"The Glow Empire is not a temple that covers the sky with one hand, the major provinces are under the control of the big nobles, and the kings are all targeted by the royal family, once the temple shows any sign of wanting to fully mobilize, it will be extinguished by the joint efforts of the various big nobles."

"The Soros family is not alone in the empire, so there is no need to worry too much."

"What we need to do is to directly remove the tentacles of the temple in the province of Rafah!"

"If the temple does not respond, the temple in the adjacent province will be uprooted one after another."

"There will always be times when they can't help it."

Roy nodded vigorously: "I understand." ”

"The temple cleaning plan will be launched as soon as my injuries heal tomorrow." The Duke of the Frontier made a plan.

"Fuma, it's up to you to carry out this plan, and I'll have your Uncle Andrew and Uncle Doug assist you, as well as a bunch of red knights."

"The archbishop of the Cathedral of Rafael is a legendary two-star, and with your strength, plus Andrew and Doug, it is enough to completely uproot it."

"It's a war."

"So, don't show mercy."

"I see." Fuma nodded vigorously, her fists clenched tightly.

Her father suffered such a catastrophe, and she wanted to pull out the bones of the people of the temple, how could she show mercy?

"Lord Duke, I also participate in the temple cleaning plan." Roy, who was on the side, suddenly spoke up.

"You want to join?" The Duke of the Frontier frowned slightly: "Roy, whether it is out of your father's friendship with me, or your kindness to Xiao Fuma and me, I can't trouble you anymore." ”

"You've done enough."

"Next, leave it to us."

In this regard, Roy chuckled and shook his head: "Lord Duke, you also know that blind penance will do more harm than good to the improvement of the knight's strength. ”

"Moreover, there are some deep grudges between me and the temple......"

"I'll go too." At this time, the space witch Latiyi, who had been standing quietly in the corner and not speaking, said in a cold voice: "In every hall and temple, there are some witches imprisoned, take this opportunity to recruit some fresh blood for the witch society." ”

“…… Yes. "Roy and Latiyi's reasons are very good, and the Duke of the Frontier has no reason to object, not to mention, with the dispatch of the two of them, the already safe operation becomes even more unlikely to fail.

On the contrary, it is a good thing.

Although some chickens are killed with knives.

The Duke of the Frontier had a feeling that the bigger reason why Latiyi was involved in this operation may be because Roy was also involved.

"This kid is unexpectedly popular......"

The Duke of the Frontier thought so in his heart, and then said:

"In that case, then tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, the temple cleaning plan will officially begin!"
