Chapter 118: Preparing for War

In the empty manor, pieces of fine iron, Mithril, and demonic scales...... All kinds of cherished forging materials were suspended in mid-air, and from time to time one or two pieces fell, falling on Zhaoxue's body like water droplets, and quickly merged into this puppet horse that had followed Li Ang for a long time since the grass trial.

The surface of Zhaoxue's body is like thick ink dripping into clear water, and a large area of ink is quickly blurred.

The evil magic energy contained in the demon material has also eroded the puppet creation of Teruyuki, and the eyes have become scarlet, and the newly born spirit has begun to become manic and violent.

Leon quickly passed through the puppet silk thread and used his strong mental power to stop this trend.

He would rather completely erase Teruyuki's sanity and turn it into a mere tool than have the slightest chance of disobeying his orders in wartime.

Demons are chaotic and disorderly creatures, and low obedience is a hard injury.

Instead of going with Cecilia to Nagilfa to meet his fellow witchers, Leon was upgrading his mount.

In fact, he had long planned to rerefine Zhaoxue, and it was the appearance of Rhaegar that largely replaced Zhaoxue's mount function, which delayed this process.

But in last night's confrontation with the Ghost Rider, even if he took advantage of various opportunities and had Cecilia's help, he still didn't take advantage of anything.

This shows his shortcomings to the fullest, and only Zhaoxue can be strengthened in a short period of time.

For now, the Ghost Rider is quite partial to knightly encounters, and he doesn't intend to avoid that, because if the Ghost Rider changes his tactics, it will become more difficult.

Finally, the last step is complete.

At this moment, Zhaoxue seemed to be wearing a layer of black horse armor, and a sharp angle extended from his skull, which looked extremely hideous.

But in fact, whether it is horse armor or ramming horns, they are all connected to the "skeleton" of Zhaoxue, and what it really changes is the inside, not the surface of this camouflage skin.

Now it has completely surpassed the nightmare horse that Leon killed when he first dealt with the puppet demon, and on its own, it can barely deal with some mid-sequences.

It doesn't seem like a big improvement, but the new "Zhaoxue" mainly improves the function of assisting Leon in combat, rather than its heads-up ability.

Of course, it is a bit unrealistic to call Zhaoxue this name now.

Li Ang touched the remodeled Zhaoxue horsemane, the touch was a little rough, and it was no longer as soft as before, but the magic conductivity was far better than before.

He suddenly remembered a name that was very sorry for Baron Tebelli: "For the time being, you should call Invincible first." ”

This is the name of a mount for a certain father-killer and filial son, which sounds a little ominous, but for a while he can't think of any nice name suitable for a dark horse.

At this moment, a dark cloud quickly passed by in the sky.

He subconsciously looked up and saw that the huge ghost ship was slowly descending towards the gates of Avalon—the trial was complete!

He rushed over at once.

The new "Invincible" was faster than ever, like a black hurricane, flying over the long streets of Avalon in the blink of an eye.

Although it was not yet up to the teleportation of the Ghost Rider's mount, Leon suspected that the ability was not his mount at all, but the knight himself.

In fact, in the crafting formula of [Activated Puppet], the highest-level puppet horse can be teleported across spaces.

But that requires too many materials, and it also requires multiple slaughters, completing evil sacrifices, and praying for the blessings of the lord level, that is, the second order of the high-level demons, to achieve it.

Leon wasn't going to put too much effort into this ability anymore.

Unless you are willing to incarnate as a mad and inhumane "demon", it is simply impossible for human beings to fully exert every function of their demonic talents.

By the time they arrived at the "wharf" where Nagilfa was anchored, Najrfa had risen again and headed out for the secret sea.

Obviously, those who stay are those who pass the trial, and those who leave with the ship are naturally the losers.

There were more people who passed the Five Virtues Test than Li Ang expected, there were fifteen people, but three of them didn't even reach the middle order, so they obviously couldn't help much.

In fact, even the ordinary medium sequence is likely to be killed directly in the face of the Evil Ghost Rider, not to mention the low sequence, and even beating the side drum is very sinister.

These people who have passed the trial are clearly divided into several circles, and even the three lower sequences are included in them, and there are only a few lone wanderers.

Obviously, even if you have "all five virtues", don't expect people to be united.

Without knowing how terrifying the final trial, that is, the Ghost Rider, really is, they are more wary of their competitors.

"Leon!"

Ogilde shouted.

"How did you manage to pass the trial so quickly?"

Li Ang said frankly, "I have experienced the Five Virtues Trial before, and Lady Vivien has exempted me from the Trial. ”

He needs the help of these five demon hunters, and he already plans to reveal his information, so naturally he will not lie, if the lie is discovered, it will be difficult to win the trust of others.

"Good luck!"

Ogilde lowered his voice with a fluttering eyebrow: "Tell me, what do you have to do with that lake fairy, I heard her say that she actually invited you to be a guest at her house?"

Cohen glared at Ogilde and nodded politely to Leon, "Don't inquire about these personal matters just yet—Leon, do you have any information to share with us?"

"Of course, the final trial is very competitive and requires us to stick together...... Don't look at me like that, there's no need to shy away from it at all, because the opponent is far more terrifying than you can imagine. ”

"The target is an evil spirit knight, whose strength has reached the top of the middle sequence, and with the sword in the stone in its hand, below the high sequence, there are very few people who can defeat it. ”

"Evil spirits?"

Clifford's face was a little ugly: "This is bad, our Iron School has no means to deal with evil spirits at all. ”

Cohen said, "It's okay, Isha and I can share with you the evil spirit oil we have concocted, and the moon dust that specializes in restraining spirits. ”

Li Ang shook his head and said: "Although it is called the Evil Spirit Rider, it has a physical body, your alchemy products may not be effective, and its body surface is surrounded by a white flame, which is extremely powerful, it can directly penetrate the defense and burn the souls of those who approach, if you want to fight in close combat, you must be as careful as walking a tightrope." ”

Cohen pondered, "Sounds like the legendary Soul Flame, the mage should know more about it than we do, right?"

As he spoke, he looked at the other group, a small group of mages.

On the premise that they were so close, and they didn't arrange counterspells, he didn't believe that these people had that level of moral cleanliness and could take the initiative not to eavesdrop.

But there was no response.

Cohen could only continue to ask, "This Ghost Rider is the guardian of the Sword in the Stone?"

Leon nodded: "Sort of, only by killing the Evil Spirit Rider can we have a chance to grab the sword in the stone in its hand, this is our final trial." ”

He didn't tell the Evil Spirit Rider that it was actually the sealing stone of the Sword in the Stone, and that the Sword in the Stone was a magic sword, and he was worried that it would cause Vivien trouble.

And those people may not believe it.

They will only think that this is a ploy by Leon to deliberately want them to lose interest in the sword in the stone.
