A strong and high-pitched voice came out of the smoke and resounded throughout the audience.

The two stone wings were opened, and suddenly a gust of wind swept up, and the smoke suddenly dispersed, revealing a majestic colossus, and he stood there like a mountain, with his head held high. Wearing a golden crown on his head, behind him is a pair of golden wings, white with some traces of time.

And the face of the colossus showed a humanized smiling expression at this moment.

At this moment, everyone froze, they looked up at the colossus, and felt a deep shock from the bottom of their hearts.

There is almost no one who doesn't know it, isn't this the colossus outside the city?!

"Galio!"

Lux shouted happily, "You're really here!" ”

"Of course, Golden-headed villain!" Galio let out a hearty laugh, his laughter was full of power, and then said, "I said I'll be there whenever you need me." ”

At this time, the people at the scene also came back to their senses, but they still had an unbelievable look in their eyes.

"Galio is alive."

Gavin IV rubbed his eyes, deeply suspecting that what he was looking at now was an illusion.

But no, whether it was the cracks in the ground or the colossus standing not far away, it told him that it was the truth.

The ancient colossus outside the city has come to life!

Alive?

Is it possible that he was not a dead thing all along?

This huge sculpture has a long history and is considered a sign of war by the military.

When the soldiers go out to fight, the Colossus joins the battle.

The colossus carved from the Forbidden Stone has a magic-absorbing constitution, so it can protect soldiers from archmages.

He even woke up a few times when he had absorbed enough magic.

However, this is a legendary statement, and for a period of time, the colossus has stayed at the fork in the road of the battle monument outside the royal capital for people to admire.

As time passed, I am afraid that only children believed that this colossus was alive.

However, such a scene that is out of touch with reality happened in front of their eyes, and people realized that the legend turned out to be true!

With such a scene, even Jiawen III and Zhao Xin were shocked.

In the royal library, there is indeed a record of the colossus outside the city.

It was one of the most successful masterpieces of the famous Master Durang at that time, and it was even able to come back to life.

However, even the royal family has long since lost the way to awaken the colossus, and by his generation, this has become a legend.

"Lux, you did this?"

Galen looked at Lux, his tone a little unconvinced: "You and Galio"

Because just now people did see what she seemed to want to try, and it was clear that she knew the Colossus.

"That's right, I did it!"

Lux raised her head proudly at this moment, her little face was full of pride, and the corners of her mouth were grinning: "We are old friends." ”

"Yes, old friend."

Before anyone else could speak, Galio was the first to approve of her words, revealing a very doting expression.

This shocked the hearts of the people at the scene.

You know, in the eyes of the people of Demacia, Galio is a spiritual sustenance, a symbol of the kingdom, a great existence that everyone admires like a great hero.

Lux and Galio have such a good relationship?

Lucci knew, but he had forgotten about it.

Seeing Galio appear at this time, I also feel that this wave is stable.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of combat power, Galio is still quacky.

At this time, Galio's state was extremely excited, and he looked around the audience: "Mage, I have seen a lot of mages, you called me here to let me help you destroy them?" ”

When the words fell, the hearts of all the mages on the scene couldn't help jumping, and they took a step back in shock and fear.

There is no doubt that if Galio was willing, he could slap one to death.

If the giant was alive, their rebellion would have been a joke from the start.

"No, it's not." Lux hurriedly denied it, pointing to the soles of Galio's feet: "I called you here to ask you to help us deal with this." ”

"Under my feet?" Galio glanced down, and indeed felt a very powerful aura of magic from below.

So he removed his foot, and where the crack in the middle of the pit spread, Eldred lay there in a daze, the wings behind his back seemed to be broken, and the whole looked very embarrassed, and the magic power in his body fluctuated unsteadily, and the whole person was dying.

People didn't expect that after suffering such a heavy blow from Galio just now, Eldred was still alive, which was surprising enough.

The blow of the earthquake just now, I'm afraid that anyone else will be directly crushed into flesh, right?

"Well, I feel the power of familiarity."

Galio glanced at him, touched his chin with a thoughtful expression, and after half a sound, he said casually, "Forget it, I can't remember." ”

Then he crouched down, stretched out his big hand, and pulled Eldred up like a chicken, looking at him curiously.

As his body shook, Eldred regained some consciousness, but it was still extremely blurry, and he felt as if the bones in his body were broken, and there was a sharp pain, and the two forces in his body were also being lost.

Through the slit of his eyes trying to open open, he saw that the Colossus was watching him.

Colossus

Even he didn't expect that the colossus outside the city would come to life.

He did learn from the secret that the Colossus might be alive, but the Colossus had not been touched for at least two or three hundred years.

No one knows how to wake him up.

Even he thought it was a lie.

It turns out that it's true.

At this moment, his life suddenly flashed in Eldred's mind like a fast-turning page.

He was born into a family of demon seekers, and he showed good talent since he was a child, and everyone in his family who received targeted education was waiting for him to succeed the next demon seeker.

Since he was a child, he has been indoctrinated with the idea of hating and hostile to mages.

That hatred reached its extreme, when his father died in an operation to capture a mage.

He rightfully inherited his father's position, and at the age of fourteen, he became a demon seeker.

Because of his good talent and the education he received from a demon hunter since he was a child, he quickly rose to prominence after becoming a demon hunter.

At the age of seventeen, he became the leader of a team of demon hunters.

At the age of twenty, he was promoted to captain and was in charge of three squads.

At the age of twenty-three, he was promoted to the head of the sub-regiment, and his subordinates had more than a hundred people.

In this way, he can be said to be young and promising, and the future is promising.

In this way, his life is completely bound to the demon searcher.

However, after becoming the head of the sub-regiment, Eldred did not live a life of being respected everywhere he went.

People hate mages, but they also hate witchers.

In other words, the demon seekers are not treated well among the people.

The Demon Seeker is a crow, synonymous with the plague god, and an object to avoid.

The eyes that people cast at him were fear, horror, timidity, and never respect.

In order to change this, Eldred is working harder and harder to capture the mage, and he wants the Demon Seeker to be the object of everyone's respect.

But it's very difficult. The prejudice in people's hearts is a big mountain, no matter how hard you try, you can't want to move.

And his road to promotion also encountered obstacles.

Until the age of thirty, he was always a sub-commander, and his former subordinates came to the same position as him, and some were even above him.

More and more difficulties in life are in front of us.

Eldred was also confused and confused, until he was thirty-two years old, when he was inspired.

He began to care not about merit, not about position, and concentrated on arresting mages, and did the dirty work that other regiments were unwilling to take.

At the same time, also in the shadows. Gather strength.

He began to set aside some of his time to study the captured mages—and in fact it worked.

But he wasn't in a hurry.

He began to secretly cultivate trustworthy subordinates, one after another, and developed silently like this.

The day-to-day life was repeated for eight years, during which time he relied on steady performance to rise to the next level, and at the age of forty, he finally waited for his chance.

The previous leader of the Demon Hunter Corps died unexpectedly due to illness, and such an important position was vacant, and someone was urgently needed to fill it.

The deputy head of the regiment was the most suitable candidate, but Eldred was not willing to give up this opportunity.

In eight years, more than half of the Demon Hunters belong to him, and as he brings out the results he has achieved from the mage, more and more people support him.

The expected fierce competition did not come, and the deputy head seemed to realize that he was already larger than himself in the group.

So he offered to recommend the king and was willing to assist Eldred.

The king readily agreed, and in this way, he naturally became the head of the Demon Hunter Regiment.

However, he was still not at ease with the former deputy head of the group, and it took him a year to let him resign voluntarily and leave the demon search team.

From that moment on, the Demon Seeker Corps was in his hands in the true sense.

He began to dream of realizing his ambitions, but the reality was cruel, and after he became the head of the regiment, he did not achieve anything for two consecutive years.

Until one day, he came up with a bold idea.

That is, allow the mage to also become a demon seeker and use the power of the mage against the mage.

The idea was supported by parliament and it was put into practice.

The Demon Seekers began to search the people for a mage to be recruited, and it was then that they found a mage with special abilities.

That was Silas, who had the special ability to see other magical powers.

Silas was recruited as a Demon Hunter, but it didn't take long for a big incident to happen, and a team of Demon Hunters and the Guardian were killed by Silas.

Although according to the investigation, this is supposed to be caused by a loss of control of magic, Silas still became a sinner.

The Demon Seeker pursues this, but Silas shows the unexpectedly powerful and unexpectedly difficult to handle.

Eventually, the Demon Seeker took advantage of Silas' trust in his friend Vestile and eventually captured him.

Silas deserved to be sentenced to death for such a serious crime, but Eldred felt that it would be a pity for him to die like this with such special abilities.

So, he managed to keep Silas behind and imprisoned him in the dungeon.

After becoming the leader, he became more and more confused about the situation of the Demon Seekers, who had been working hard to capture the mages and maintain peace.

Even if I encountered many things during this period, I had to turn a blind eye.

But they never forgot their original intention, wanting to expel all the mages, why Demacia's peace.

But in the end, what I got was always a bunch of white eyes.

He hadn't forgotten that he wanted everyone to respect the ideals of the Demon Seekers.

It's just that it is extremely difficult to achieve this, and the Demon Seeker needs greater merit to be recognized by people.

Maybe it was from that time that I embarked on the wrong path.

He began, on the mage, to conduct more experiments.

In his eyes, mages were all inferior people, and they were at the same level as those demonic beasts, so they didn't have the slightest mercy.

Once again, the experiment paid off, and as the capture of mages became more and more efficient, so did the safety rate.

He felt that the rating of the demon searcher seemed to have finally ushered in an improvement.

After all, in this huge country, there are always places that you can't see.

The emergence of a cult caused the king to become disillusioned with the demon seekers.

But he felt that it was all salvageable, as long as the Demon Seeker did not disappoint the king again.

However, it seems to be too late.

On that day, the king came up with the idea of wanting to pardon the mage.

At that moment, Eldred was stunned.

Looking back on the past, from being able to read and remember, to now he is sixty-three years old.

Whole, nearly sixty years, more than 20,000 days. He devoted almost his entire life to the cause of forbidden demons, dedicating everything he had to Demacia.

The word forbidden demon has become an inseparable and inseparable relationship.

Eldred thinks that this may be the whole of his life, and it will be all of him, and if there is no accident, he may be relieved of the duties of the Demon Hunter on the day he dies.

But the king wanted to pardon the mage, which may have been his idea for a long time.

Pardon the mage, the mage of the whole world is no longer a guilty person, and there is no need to arrest and go to prison, so what do you want to do with the demon searcher?

It was only a matter of time before the Demon Seeker was abolished.

Then he, the leader of the Demon Hunter Corps, is also of course, and it is useless.

This. How can it work.

So, what is the meaning of his life? Does it end like a drama?

He had thought about his life after he was no longer a demon seeker, but what he thought of was a blank slate.

He couldn't imagine that he would no longer be a demon seeker.

The Demon Seeker is already his life.

But the king's weakening of the demon seekers became more and more apparent, and he saw that the demon seekers were reduced by half overnight, but there was nothing he could do.

It was only by this time that Stuart found him.

Stuart was a representative of the nobility, having supported him in parliament as the head of the Demon Seekers, as well as his adoption of mage-to-mage decisions.

So they did keep in touch all the time, but rarely had in-depth communication.

Even after entering Demacia's society, he was always a withdrawn leader of the Demon Seekers, and he was not easy to get along with.

Stuart finds him, and the other seems to know what he is doing in private.

Stuart then came up with the bold idea of planning a rebellion.

A rebellion of mages, the country needs a crisis to wake up.

When mages wreak havoc in the city, the king and the people will remember the need for a demon hunter.

At this time, he only needs to lead the demon seeker to strike.

The rebellious mage caused panic, and the demon seeker who saved it all naturally became a hero.

The people need heroes, and the Demon Seeker is a good fit for this position.

Eldred was indeed tempted, he had indeed thought that creating a big problem that could not be solved by one country, but which could be solved by the Demon Seekers.

In this way, he was able to stabilize the position of the Demon Hunter, but in the end he gave up.

But this time, it seems compelled to do so.

He didn't understand why Stuart would help him do this, Stuart's answer was that he wanted more power, and supporting the Demon Seekers was obviously a good investment.

Eldred finally agreed.

He never thought of killing Gawain III, in contrast, what he needed more was Gawain III's approval, and he needed the third to recognize the Demon Seeker and reuse the Demon Finder.

That way he wouldn't be useless, he was still the leader of the Demon Hunter Corps, and he was still responsible for continuing to capture mages.

Sooner or later, the Demon Seeker will be respected by everyone in the true sense of the word.

That's what Eldred wanted to see all his life.

But it doesn't seem to be visible.

From the moment he rushed to the palace to rescue the driver and saw the body of Gavin III, Eldred realized that everything had been beyond his expectations.

He was taken aboard a thief ship and had to continue driving.

However, all of this was just a plan by the two princes.

From the first time he saw him, Eldred had a vague sense that this man was not simple.

However, he still underestimated this prince who was recovered from the people, he had obviously put his extraordinaryness on the surface, but everyone didn't think it was true.

Everyone thinks that it must be Jiawen III who is secretly supporting this prince, and what he shows is just what the third king wants them to see.

From the very beginning, everyone underestimated him.

He had guessed Stuart's plan from the beginning, and had prepared it in advance, and seemed to have calculated everything and waited for the day to come.

The matter was revealed.

It's too late.

Kroger is dead, Josie is dead, Stuart is dead, and he's all left.

He knew that there was no turning back, so he simply let it go completely.

Over the years, he has been the leader of the Demon Hunter Corps, and he has not wasted the resources brought by this position, and he has also discovered some things that are not simple, such as this rune. and the feathers of the Winged Patronus.

He has even broken through the difficulty of using these two forces.

However, in the end, it is only one step away.

This step is like a difficult climb to the sky.

At this point, the Demon Seeker will be completely driven into the abyss.

In the end, everything was made for this prince's wedding dress.

He's not reconciled. He is really unwilling, in this way, what is the meaning of his whole life!?

"Damn!!"

Eldred roared unwillingly, and suddenly burst out of his body with a good energy, breaking free of Galio's hand.

A pair of broken wings opened, Eldred stared at the second prince who was secretly relieved, and the next second he rushed directly away, like an afterimage, very fast.

Such a scene was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Mader, again?"

Lu Qi, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't help but be angry when he saw this.

He was very skeptical that he had some buff on him that attracted the boss's hatred.

But in any case, someone on his way is not a clay man!

In the next moment, a powerful Infinite Sword Intent emerged from Lu Qi's body, and the wind intent instantly surrounded his body, and a transcendent and thick aura spread towards the surroundings, suffocating.

"The wind is coming!"

As he slashed out with all his strength, in an instant, a ray of light bloomed from above the snow-white long blade, and then a violent wind tornado roared out violently!

The huge tornado emitted a terrifying aura, blowing smoke and dust everywhere, and swept towards Eldred at a rapid speed, shattering the rolled bricks directly on the way.

Eldred's hands also condensed a stream of magical energy, and then released it.

"Boom!!"

The two forces collided, and a loud bang erupted, and Eldred broke through the tornado, only to find that Luqi had disappeared from his eyes, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"Here!"

Suddenly Luffy's voice came from behind him.

Eldred subconsciously turned around, and a sword came in front of him, the sharp sword flashed, and he was struck away by this instantaneous blow.

Then I saw the wind on Lu Qi's body, which was condensed to the extreme at this moment!

The momentum of his whole person also climbed to the peak at this moment!

In the next second, he stepped in the air, and burst out with an extremely fast speed, like an arrow from the string, stepping into the air, and at the same time, several sharp sword lights flashed, dazzling and inscrutable.

It's - the wind is slashing!!

With a "click", the anti-magic shell worn by Eldred shattered, and he only felt as if his body was torn apart, and his heart swelled with monstrous waves.

This second prince. It's so strong.

He tried to release the magical energy in his body to fight back, but he was directly pierced through the heart by Ludge's sword, and all Eldred's unwillingness was shattered.

The rapid loss of these two forces also represents the passage of vitality.

At the last moment, what Eldred saw was the blue sky of Demacia.

It's so beautiful.
