The man in front of her, or the demon in front of her, is the only power in Artoria's life.

His body exudes colorful energy. They spun gorgeously and flew behind him like a cloak. The icy aura swirled around him, and the forces of darkness were surrendering to him, as if he were the master of darkness, the king of Qiē.

Even the mighty Merlin looked weak and weak in front of this man. The power of the god guardian that Artoria had seen before was as small as a drop of water in the ocean compared to him at this time.

Artoria froze, "Who are you?"

"Lord of Darkness, King of the Dead, Demon Emperor...... You name it. Of course, you can also call me by my name, my name is Qin Hao," the purple-haired demon smiled and looked at the Wind Fantasy in her hand, "At the same time, I am also the master of the Wind Fantasy. ”

Artoria clenched the sword in her hand, subconsciously took a step back, and looked at him vigilantly, "You want to take it back?"

"Of course not," Qin Hao shook his head with a smile and said, "In fact, it has always belonged to me - even if it is in your hands now, it still belongs to me, not you, Princess Artoria." ”

He smiled, looked at the princess who was looking at him stubbornly, and said, "But I'm going to lend you its power for the time being...... If you can afford that. ”

"I'm willing to pay any price!" said Artoria excitedly, "as long as I can save my people." ”

"Be quiet, my child, I know your determination. In fact, it is because of your determination that I have decided to help you," Qin Hao soothed Artoria's excited feelings, "but before that, we need to complete a small ritual...... Well. Rituals required to inherit power. ”

He looked at Artoria and asked, "Once you choose to accept my power, I can guarantee that you will receive unrivaled power. Even the most powerful god of your enemies will fall at your hands...... But are you really up to the decision? Once you accept my powers, you're going to be a real undead, and you're going to die in a sense, just a walking corpse -- and even then, are you willing?"

"I don't regret it!" Artoria said with a firm look at Qin Hao.

"Good. So let's get started...... Before that friend of yours wakes up," Qin Hao's friend said, referring to Merlin who was knocked unconscious by him, "I don't want him to interrupt our ceremony halfway. ”

As he spoke, Qin Hao raised his head and looked into the dark void, "There are still ...... Shiftia, can you come out?"

The words fell, and the dark void parted in both directions, under Artoria's stunned gaze. A girl named Ceftia appeared silently beside the two with an evil smile.

"Honey, didn't you call people Xixi before?It's really not good, you can also call people dear~ Why are you so angry?" Shiftia covered her face. With a shy, "Really, if you let others know, you might think that our husband and wife are not compatible." ”

"Couple?" Artoria frowned and took a step back. I found myself in a trap that I seemed into, "You two are husband and wife?"

"That's right. ”

"It's not. ”

In the completely different answers, Qin Hao and the smiling Shiftia looked at each other for a long time. A little helplessly, he spread his hands, "Okay, okay, if you're not afraid of being stabbed to death by Arnoya, I have no opinion if you have to say that." ”

Then he turned his head and looked at Artoria, "Also, do you just notice something is wrong now?human princess, you have been led by the nose by this evil woman all along...... I don't know what happened between you, but it's clear that you've been enchanted by her. ”

"Yes, yes, why don't you think you've met an undead all the way?" because I've taken care of it for you," said Ceftia with a grin, "Princess Artoria, thank me quickly, I'm the protector behind you." ”

Artoria looked at the two demons in front of her and asked, "What do you want?"

Qin Hao shrugged his shoulders, "I just saw that you were so persistent, so I just helped you...... As for Shiftia, I don't know. In fact, I haven't seen her for more than 10,000 years, and this is the first time we've met after 10,000 years of absence, and I don't know her purpose. ”

"My purpose is actually the same as yours," Shiftia said with a smile as she looked at Artoria, "My dear and I are both enemies of the ancient evil gods, and the four-headed evil gods who appeared on the main plane are actually just one of those evil gods. And the story of the Demon Emperor, I believe you also know, my stupid husband was ambushed and attacked by that group of evil gods 10,000 years ago, and almost fell. ”

"Not long ago, I woke up from the Ten Abyss Prison and followed those evil gods to the main plane, intending to kill those guys when their power weakened. As a result, I accidentally discovered that my family's dear breath appeared in the north...... Hehe...... It was a real surprise, I always thought he really hung up. ”

Shiftia said, grinning and hugging one of Qin Hao's arms, and the whole person was about to stick to Qin Hao's body. And Qin Hao shrugged his shoulders, letting her affectionate behavior and not showing any resistance, "The main plane is a good place, hiding here and slowly accumulating strength will not be discovered by those evil gods." ”

"But we can't let those evil gods dangle under our noses, right?" Shiftia hugged Qin Hao's arm and said with some dissatisfaction, "Although we can't kill all the evil gods to take revenge, it's still okay to kill these four unlucky ones first." And if you want to do this, I can't do it because my strength is weakened by the world barrier of the main plane, and my dear family can't exert all my strength without a body, so we need a substitute to help us do this. ”

As she spoke, Shiftia looked at Artoria and smiled evilly, "And you, Princess Artoria, are the best surrogate of all. Not only are you strong, but you are also strong, and you are able to withstand all the power of my dear family perfectly, and you also have a grudge against those evil gods...... Even if you know that this qiē is a conspiracy of mine, can you refuse?"

Artoria took a deep breath and lowered her head a little dejectedly, "I can't refuse." ”

"Very well, then let's get started," Hiftia snapped her fingers and said to herself, "Let our great Lord of Darkness, Undead King, Demon Emperor...... Oops, why are you knocking me?"

Qin Hao glared at her, "As long as you talk a lot of nonsense, go back." ”

With that, Qin Hao walked up to Artoria and stretched out his right hand, "If you really decide, hold my right hand, and I will lend you all my strength." ”

Without any hesitation, Artoria stretched out her right hand and clasped Qin Hao's hand.

A cold blue light appeared around the two of them, turning into rune chains, constantly rotating and swirling. Looking at the purple-haired demon in front of her in a daze, Artoria's vision began to blur, and before she died, she heard a sigh from the purple-haired demon.

What was he sighing for? Artoria didn't know, she just felt that cold and powerful power poured into her body endlessly, desperately transforming her body to make her strength stronger and stronger...... Getting stronger......

"Artoria...... Artoria?

At the old wizard's call, Artoria slowly opened her eyes. The first thing that caught her eye was the top of the ice crystal mountain above her head, and Merlin's worried gaze.

Artoria sat up abruptly from the ground, rubbing her eyebrows, a little confused, "Merlin, what's going on?"

"Thank goodness Artoria it's great that you're okay!"

The old wizard breathed a sigh of relief, "I woke up before to find you faint...... Son, what happened? Why is this sword in your hand? Why did you faint?"

Amid Merlin's worried inquiry, Artoria lowered her head, and then she saw a gorgeous two-handed sword lying quietly in her hand. The skeletal skull on the hilt of the sword had a cold blue glow in its eye sockets, looking cold and evil.

But it was an incredibly powerful force that surged around her, and it was......

"Undead Monarch ......" Artoria muttered to her feet, feeling the myriad spiritual links that connected her, she knew that they were an army of the dead controlled by the Wind Fantasy. Now, these armies will be controlled by her, and they will become her most powerful help.

She looked ahead, only to see that in the center of the cavern, the original stone base had completely shattered, and even the huge ice that sealed the illusion of the wind had been torn apart. However, on the shattered pedestal, a tall and majestic figure was suspended.

"Go ahead and do what you want. From this day forward, I will lend me all my power and grant you the status of Lord of the Undead and the armies of the Lich. You, on the other hand, will become the Lich King. ”

With the purple-haired demon smiling, Artoria strode away, not answering Merlin's question.

Her skin had turned gray and pale, bloodless, and no longer as fair and delicate as it once was. Her dazzling beautiful blonde hair had now turned a pale that symbolized dead silence, dancing in the cold wind.

But what remains unchanged is only the firm heart and the eyes that never waver.

She walked through the cave and came to the lake. In the face of the evil power of death, even the icy lake had to be parted to both sides, and in the cold moonlight, she slowly rose to the height of the Ice Throne, bathed in the silver moonlight, Artoria raised the sword of the dead in her hand.

Roar -

Countless terrifying roars rang out over the earth. On the originally white snowfield, countless blue points of light lit up in vain, and then these blue lights spread rapidly, and finally turned into an endless sea of soul fire.

In the endless ocean of undead, all the undead roared in the sky, swearing allegiance to their new king. (To be continued......)
