(Principality Arc ꔷ I)

In the year 256 of the Alchemy Calendar of the Principality of Van Luntieno, the sixth day of the Month of Ice Condensation......

Soon after the Demon Lord Fred retreated mysteriously from the battlefield of the Ice Sculpture Underworld, he returned with countless demon soldiers and monsters.

The invaders shouted the battle slogan "Silver Holy War", setting off endless flames of war, quickly sweeping through the continent of Van Lun Tieno.

If the demonic raids of the previous period were just an undercurrent of occasional waves, then today they have completely broken this statement, and their activities are frequent, and wherever their demonic hooves go, if no one stops them, it will be a mess.

In the face of a sudden mass of enemies, the Knights' Guild did not have time to formulate a strategy in detail, and could only attack on defense for the time being.

In order to replenish the supply of troops in a short period of time, the Knights' Guild considered asking for assistance from the Adventurers' Guild.

However, they had some discord with the Adventurers' Guild before, and there was almost no record of the two parties working together.

The Adventurers' Guild is the largest group of bounty hunters in the continent today, and only money can drive them to work, even cattle and horses.

What honor, duty, and the idea of defending the people.

For them, it is just a utopia, and it is unreasonable and empty talk.

It seems that this time, the Knight Guild wants to put aside its previous suspicions, and has agreed on a contract with the Adventurer Guild in terms of strategy for dealing with demon attacks.

Since the founding of the Principality of Van Lentieno, it has ushered in its first major catastrophe.

-

The hills behind the village are covered with low but lush green grass.

Although there is no birdsong and flowers, it is indeed a vibrant natural scene, in stark contrast to the two humble stone tombs erected in the center.

The deceased in the tomb died heroically in the line of duty to protect the signs of this faction of life, to protect the weak, to protect Van Lentino.

The black-clothed and white-haired young man stepped on the low grass and walked up the hill, his originally pale face was bloodless by the morning breeze, and his expression was serious and a little sad.

The sky was gray with dark clouds. Since this month, the sky has been devoid of the tides of the Demon Sea, but the weather has become very cold, as the name of the month "Ice Moon" describes, cold enough to freeze the water into ice.

Before leaving for the north, Filsa ꔷ Danlitair once again came to visit his fallen friends.

He wants to make a vow to avenge his friend.

But...... What's the point of revenge...... What's the point of taking an oath...... Can taking a vow make oneself more confident and determined?

I don't know. The direction has been lost. He had sworn to avenge his mother, so he embarked on the road of slaying demons, but it was his father who stood in the way.

He didn't know how he had survived from his father's sword, and it took him a while to remember that it was all thanks to his companion Shirley.

Behind him, there was the faint sound of a man walking on the grass.

"Felsa."

Shirley walked a short distance behind her companion and greeted him. Since packing her bags this morning, she has been searching the town for her companions. As a result, she came here and found that he was indeed here.

"Ready to go."

Filsa replied in a low voice and turned her head.

He noticed that Shirley had changed a little compared to the past.

Her hairstyle remained the same as her shawl-length hair, which was still a little shorter than that of Priscia in her dreams;

The jade earrings worn on the left ear are hidden in the hair.

However, her outfit was different from yesterday, perhaps taking into account the cold climate of the north and the inevitable wind and snow on the way, Shirley changed her previous thin brown blouse and wore an all-black women's open coat with small lapels and hip-length coats.

If you look closely, you can see that the black is painted with hidden runes, which are effective in concealing the breath.

In her coat it was still the plain white shirt of the past;

The taupe belt is obliquely buckled around the waist, and the small belt bag that has always been carried is estimated to be hanging on the waist, but it is hidden in the coat and cannot be seen.

I heard her mention that there was a hidden weapon hanging in the belt and a small amount of first-aid medicine in the waist bag, all just in case. Knee-length black tight-fitting pants are worn to create a beautiful shape, and the base is paired with a mini skirt that has become popular recently.

A pair of light boots has not been replaced as before.

This kind of collocation is the result of everything being as convenient and agile as possible in action, and then asking for ornamentation, and its color is not eye-catching but also retains a certain temperament.

Filsa admired Shirley's new outfit, and for a few seconds he forgot the grief of losing his friend.

At this time, Shirley was still carrying two pieces of luggage, one was Felsea's bag, and the other was the long steel sword that she had just received from the Knights' Guild.

"As for the weapons, I originally thought that the Adventurer Guild would buy them, but I heard that the quality of the weapons there doesn't seem to be very good, and there are many people."

In order to avoid the adventurers who pursued him, Filsa also had to change out of the easily eye-catching Knights of the Silver Wing uniform, and wear a plain black coat instead. Compared to Shirley's one, it is wider and longer, and the warmth effect is good, and it is not in the way of action.

"It doesn't matter, as long as the weapon is enough to defend yourself before you reach the academy."

Filsa took the bag first, carried it on his right shoulder, and then took the long steel sword in his left hand, and suddenly felt a sense of heaviness.

He swung so hard that he couldn't get used to it for a short time.

After all, the weight of the destroyed "Ice Flame Sword ꔷ Franzane" is less than half of the ordinary long steel sword in his hand now, and the feel is of course a lot worse.

"Let's go."

Shirley finally urged.

-

About ten days ago, on the twenty-eighth day of the Dark Moon.

The Demon Lord Fred Danritel hurried back to the Demon Realm on the temporarily summoned Demon Dragon Mount, heading towards the Silverdawn Temple, the tallest tower that clearly came into view in the distance. The canopy was strangely cloudy with crimson clouds.

The buildings of the Demon Realm, including city gates, houses, altars, churches, demon alliance meeting halls, etc., are all black and oppressive, and they have lost their atmosphere as if they were extremely serious.

The people were asleep and did not come out until the night. After the night curtain descended from the demon realm, the lights were lit up from house to house. This is a very different scene from the human world.

The only one that glows day and night is the Demon Lord's Temple.

The first entrance to the Silver Dawn Palace, the heavy black stone giant gate, is not something that ordinary warriors and demons can forcibly push and break into.

The outer part is imparted with a spell that imprisons the magic, and is the second barrier. The giant guards outside the door are two stone men and demons who are burning red and blue flames respectively.

They were also guarding the temple closely, always on alert, and sleepless day and night.

These three virtually impenetrable barriers ensure that the temple is not disturbed by outsiders all year round.

Judging from the main entrance of the temple alone, there is no sign of a strong attack. But the owner of the temple still had a sense of foreboding.

Finding that the master had returned, the guard demon soldier bowed his huge body and knelt down on one knee to greet him. The air was disturbed by the movement of the mass.

"What's going on?"

"Lord Hui Demon Lord, no one has invaded."

Fred nodded slightly in response, then recited the spell that activated the stone door. The stone door opened to welcome the owner in, and the noise of rubbing against the floor was deafening.

The crack in the door was dark, more black than the stone door.

Once the door was wide enough for him to enter, the Demon Lord stepped in without looking back, disappearing into the gloom and entering the lobby.

Faced with the darkness that could not be seen with his fingers, the Demon Lord cast a second spell. About ten meters above his head, a light suddenly lit up, crystal pure white, a high-grade magic crystal lamp.

From this moment on, hundreds of identical magic crystal lamps on the ceiling were turned on as if a switch, starting from near to far, one by one, to dispel the darkness. The lobby returned to its splendour, as bright as the brightest silver light.

The lobby of the Silver Dawn Hall is very grand, the walls are like mirrors, and the space seems endless. The floor tiles are black and white, reminiscent of an incomparably large chessboard.

A bright red carpet runs from the main entrance to the opposite end – the entrance that is also further down. On both sides of the long road paved on the red carpet, there are twelve lifelike stone statues of knights, which are extremely majestic.

"Flame Dragon Scale-Finchly, Supreme Divine Power-Douglas, Heroic Sword-Edmund, Nine Directions Rift-Carranza......"

Every time the Demon Lord passed a knight, he silently recited his name and title, which was his usual practice, and it was even more customary.

At the same time, he carefully observed his surroundings for anomalies.

In the end, it was found that there was no sign of an infiltrator.

The Demon Lord walked through the lobby and entered the inner level, where a large heptagonal altar was placed, each with a silver fire burning at the end of each corner, and a stone statue of a knight in the center.

To be precise, this is not a stone statue, but the body of Alfonsiqing who has been transformed into a stone statue.

What the Principality has unearthed is nothing more than the forgery of the ancients, the deception of history. The figure of this silver knight has regained its former appearance, and his gaze has faded with his soul. Still, the eyes are forever fixed to the north.

In this way, Alfonse lives forever. But—

The Demon Lord confirms the source of the foreboding in his heart. The stone statue of the hero revered by the demons is crawling with countless small snake-like cracks, and it is inevitable to wave your arms, lean forward chest, and even your cheeks.

The damage to the hero's flesh, what does this portend?

The shadow of the coiling dragon looming around the stone statue, and it seemed that the dragon's breath was spewing.

"Lord Demon Lord, what happened to Alfang Siqing's physical body?"

As soon as he heard the sound of an intruder behind him, the demon lord burst into a murderous aura, turned around and drew his sword, and the cold magic breath condensed into countless sword qi from all directions in the air, and the attacker did not need to aim at all, but directly bombarded a large area, directly attacking the speaker.

"Lord Demon! Don't-"

The speaker was no longer able to stop the cold ice sword qi that was generated in that instant, so he had to drive the demon vein and unfold the largest and most solid invisible shield with all his might.

The Demon Lord is real, no matter who he is facing today.

The speaker stretched out his palms and resisted for less than a second with the greatest ability, but the power of the sword qi was too powerful, and the protective shield was destroyed so that it disappeared before even the fragments could be cracked, and the resistor himself retreated like an arrow, slamming into the hard silver wall behind him, crying out in pain again and again.

"No one is allowed to step into the temple without your permission!" The Demon Lord shouted at the injured man, "As the Black Devil, don't you know? ”

The person who was punished by the Demon Lord for breaking into the temple was a black-haired and red-eyed boy, and the two seemed to know each other. The "Black Devil" stumbled to his feet, patting the ice chips on his body, embarrassed.

"It's me who is too anxious!"

A mature female voice came from outside the inner entrance. But listening to the footsteps again, there seemed to be two people coming.

"It turned out to be the dear Empress of the Demon Moon and the Duke of Chaos."

The Demon Lord's face turned pale. The "Demon Moon Empress" is a demon lady with a bewitching body and appearance, wearing a pitch-black one-piece dress, and she is arrogant;

The Duke of Chaos, on the other hand, is a gray-haired old man in a light gray tuxedo dress, with a humble and calm face that contrasts sharply with the former. The magic breath emitted by the two is the same as that of the Demon Lord.

"The magic was so violent this time that you couldn't help but wonder what was going on! That's why the three of us took the liberty to come, and the Demon Lord should not be angry. The Duke of Chaos respectfully explained to the monarch the reason for this visit.

The Demon Lord withdrew his sword and demon breath, and no longer pursued the three nobles' invasion of the temple today, "The three nobles of the Black Devil, please stop in moderation in the future. ”

"But Lord Sovereign......" The Demon Moon Empress suppressed her impatience and asked respectfully, "We also felt the magic of the Holy Dragon, so we deliberately came to inquire. What the hell is this...... What happened? ”

As far as the Demon Realm genealogy is concerned, Fred is one level lower than the couple. However, he is the supreme monarch who rules the demon race, and this alone can ignore the generational division in the genealogy.

Except for the middle grade of the three nobles of the Black Devil and the youngest "Black Devil Son", the two of them have defended their own dignity beyond measure.

That's why they speak out and break into the temple with impunity.

"Also, what happened to Alfonsiqing's physical body? Lord Demon Lord, please explain these changes, not only to the three of us, but also to the group of Demon Realm nobles who are eagerly waiting outside the temple and want to know the details of the changes. ”

Duke Chaos spat out his words with a calm face, and there was an element of pressure on the Demon Lord in his words. Duke Chaos's humility on the surface is just a mask, but his strength is immeasurable.

Compared to the Terran Knight Legion, the Demon Lord estimates that all the Knights Guild will have to work together to contain the Duke.

Fred put on his mask again, stepped out of the temple, and found that almost all the nobles had gathered at the temple gate, talking and fearing the majesty of the monarch and not daring to make a loud noise.

In desperation, the Demon Lord made an exception and invited the nobles to enter the temple.

But he wouldn't let them stay long.

After all the nobles had entered the temple one by one and quieted down a little, the Demon Lord gave a speech and explained in a loud voice:

"Yesterday, when Benjun returned to the human world to send a mission to the "Six Sages", he also found a change. The "Phantom Ice Underworld" built by this monarch was broken into pieces by a mysterious force. The shadow of the holy dragon Daisfield loomed around him, and Benjun strongly felt the familiar dragon's breath......"

The audience was boiling again and suspicious.

"This monarch believes that the holy sword "Glory of Extreme Ice ꔷ Danli Tyre" that Al Fang Siqing lost is about to be surrendered again!"

The audience was silent, with hundreds of eyes on the speaker. When they heard the news, they were silent at first, and then a discussion broke out again.

The holy relics that symbolize the strength and identity of the demon heroes are about to descend to the world again, which is the dawn and omen of the victory of the demon people's counterattack on the human race.

I only heard the Duke of Chaos who was in it asking, "Then what is the matter with the damage to Alfonsiqing's body?" ”

When the nobles heard that the hero's body was damaged, their worries suddenly overshadowed the excitement just now, and the scene became even more boiling.

Fred was silent, and the nobles fell silent and waited for his reply. However, all they had waited for was the silence of the Demon Lord. They wondered why the Demon Lord didn't explain, and they couldn't see the expression behind the mask.

"Lord Demon Lord, why are you silent about this?"

"Lord Lord, please explain!"

"Lord Demon ......"

During this period, Fred would never be able to tell the truth, including the limits of his own physical body and the secrets that Alphonse was hiding.

Otherwise, the demons will have a more chaotic situation than the human race.

And the people who were originally eyeing the throne of the Demon Monarch would also take action, trying to seize it in the troubled times.

But the excitement below, I couldn't control it even if I wanted to, and someone deliberately fanned the flames, and the demon lord couldn't think of a pacifying countermeasure for a while.

The "Three Nobles of the Dark Devil" were unexpectedly calm, looking at the Demon Lord intentionally, thinking to themselves that if even such a scene could not be suppressed, then the "King of the Demon Realm" Fred was really in vain.

However, after a few moments, Fred suddenly made a move, and everyone present stared at him curiously.

"Everyone—"

Fred took off his mask and showed his true face for the first time. They were amazed when they saw the Demon Lord's appearance.

"This ...... Isn't that the glorious face of Alfonsiqing? ”

Not only that, but Fred took off his gloves and raised his fist to show the crowd Alphonse's proof.

This is more convincing than self-proclaimed.

Emblem "Radiance of the North" - three pieces of holy dragon feathers bite the tail, chimeding each other, tightly surrounding the heptagon in the middle.

This mark, the supreme aurora that glowed, was incomparable even to the brilliance of all the magic crystal lamps on the Silver Dawn Hall combined.

For the first time, the demon clan colleagues witnessed the living face of the ancient hero Alfonsiqing, and couldn't help but shout the uprising slogan of the Silver Knights, which had been submerged in the long river of history and forgotten for a long time: "Silver Holy War!" Silver Holy War! ”

The voice is unanimously excited, unanimously powerful.

The "Three Nobles of the Dark Devil" had never expected this to happen, and they didn't know that the face under the mask of the Demon Lord resembled the hero Alphonse.

Originally, they tried to take advantage of this strange magic attack to shake the position of the Demon Lord.

Unexpectedly, it made him play a card that made his prestige more solid and solid.

Fred explained that Alphonse's original body, after a hundred years of wind and frost, could not last long, and was about to pass away, and he was reunited with his soul on the side of Elysium.

He didn't lie, he didn't deliberately distort, what he said was only part of the truth.

"Lord Elphons, why have you been hiding your identity? It turns out that the hero has been leading our demon realm! The Demon Moon Empress asked tentatively.

Fred had already guessed in his heart what the three nobles of the Dark Devil were planning, and he definitely had bad intentions.

So he stared at the deliberate questioner with a cold gaze, "The reason why Benjun has been wearing a mask and hiding his identity is just because I don't want anyone to think that Benjun has achieved today's achievements and ascended to the supreme throne of the demon clan by taking advantage of the appearance and fame of a hero." ”

On the spot, some of the demons who had a fierce temperament and were loyal to the Demon Lord sharply accused the three nobles of the Black Demon for their distrust of the Demon Lord and wanton speculation.

The Demon Lord stared at the splendor on the ceiling and said slowly: "It is indeed a lack of consideration for the Demon Lord to worry about the changes in the Demon Realm and the failure to inform them in time. Benjun decided to wait next month-

That is, on the last day of the Dawn Moon, a banquet will be held to entertain everyone, and after that, how about gathering together to discuss the political affairs of the demon clan in detail? ”

The nobles of the Demon Realm nodded in agreement after hearing this, and their emotions were suddenly extinguished a lot.

"At that time, please inform each other of the other nobles who have not come to the temple today, you must come and attend, this monarch has no choice to welcome."

Then he turned his head to look at the three nobles of the Dark Devils.

The three of them thought that the Demon Lord was about to be punished, and the Black Demon Prince and the Demon Moon Empress among them were a little afraid to face the Demon Lord, only the Duke of Chaos still had a calm face.

"When the time comes, the three nobles of the Dark Devil must also be present. The Demon Realm is a big family, so why bother so much. ”

In this way, the Demon Lord calmed everyone's emotions, and finally managed to control the scene that was almost in chaos.

Seeing that the nobles of the Demon Realm had already jumped up for the feast, he thought to himself that until the feast was over, he would no longer have time to pay attention to that kid from Filsa.

So it was decided to entrust the task of eradicating Filsa to his subordinates.

The most suitable person for this task, the first person that came to Fred's mind was, of course, Van Ti Terren.

-

The thirtieth day of the Dark Moon.

Since the battle with Firsa, Van Ti Tai Lun has not returned to the Demon Realm, but has only stayed in the continent of Van Lun Tieno to seek traces of his enemies.

In the past battle, he was almost killed in one step, but he didn't expect to kill a team of adventurers halfway, hindering his good chance for revenge, and he was really remorseful.

Because of the severity of his injuries and the fact that he has not paid much attention to them, he often has to walk for a while to rest for a while, which also causes him to constantly miss the opportunity to hunt down and kill his enemies.

The sun was shining, and Van was still walking on the barren desert, and after roughly judging his position, he trekked in a constant direction, hoping to leave the desert before dark.

In addition, it is not yet the Moon of Ice, and the Demon Sea plagiarism will still come two hours before it really gets dark.

So leaving the desert and finding a place where there are people becomes the first task of survival.

Since ten minutes ago, Van has been discovering that there is a black dot hovering back and forth in the sky above his head, always following him, but it does not look like a tracker.

Where can there be a crappy novice who doesn't hide his aura to stalk others?

Eventually, Van impatiently shot a fireball out of his hand, knocking down the unpleasant black spot.

A raven fell from the sky, its feathers scorched by the fire.

When Fan took a closer look, he found that it was a dark crow flying from the Demon Realm, and it seemed that he had come to deliver a message.

The Terrans use white doves to deliver messages, while the Demon Realm uses a very different black crow to deliver messages.

It lay on the ground trembling in fear, blinking its red eyes the size of a bean.

"Why are you following me?" With that, he summoned another ball of fire from his hand, enough to burn the crow into a belly-filling roast bird tonight.

The Demon Crow was very afraid of Fan and the deadly fireball in his hand, but he couldn't fly up because of his injuries, his beak shook, and he spat out human words: "Lord Demon Demon asked the villain to bring a task to Lord Fan......"

After hearing this, Fan extinguished the fireball that was about to be released in his hand, and refused impatiently and rudely: "What does he want to tell me, Demon Lord?" I have other important things to do. ”

"The Demon Lord has sent a mission to hunt down Filsa......"

Fan's eyes lit up, and he said to himself: "Hmph, it's just right." ”

"Gengen, according to the speculation of Lord Demon Lord, Firsa's destination seems to be the end of the north - the Demon Martial Arts Academy of the Far North."

"I see! Actually, I have already smelled the breath of that kid. ”

Seeing that the other party cheered up, his eyes lit up, like a rekindled flame, thinking that he was going to burn himself, he hurriedly explained another thing that the Demon Lord asked him to bring:

"Wait, wait! The Demon Lord learned that the Lord had been injured in battle with the enemy, and he specially ordered me to bring the wound medicine......"

Without further ado, the crow recited a short spell and summoned a rudimentary magic circle in the air half a meter high, and several packets of herbs wrapped and sealed in black bags fell from it.

Fan felt that this demon soldier was very annoying, he looked weak, he stammered, and he dragged his feet, "Is there anything else?" You're good to go! ”

"I can't thank you enough! The villain says goodbye first! ”

Van wasn't bored enough to kill a demon soldier, but it thought Brahma meant it. At this time, the poor demon soldier thought that he had given up killing, and thanked him again and again.

Finally, the broken wings were able to take off, and they hurried away from the irascible murderer.

After the demon soldiers left, Fan stared at the several packets of medicine from the demon realm piled up on the ground, indifferent.

"Why should I accept alms from my enemies?"

A few days ago, one of the "Six Sages" was connected with Brahman, and it was the only woman, Yuzi, who was called the "Night Succubus Butterfly" among her companions.

She kindly went to the desert to visit Fan, and persuaded him to return to the demon realm with her through teleportation magic.

However, Van rejected her kindness and stubbornly trekked through the desert. Because at that time he thought that Firsa, or Alphonse, was still in the confines of the desert. Youzi knew the temperament of this young man very well, and left after leaving a few words of concern.

Van accidentally learned from her mouth that two days ago, the Demon Lord revealed his true face under the mask in the Silverdawn Temple-

His countenance resembles that of Alphonse.

Youzi himself didn't know that Van hated Alphons, but he only knew that he would do whatever it took to stay in the Van Lun Tieno continent to hunt down and kill the enemy, so he casually shook out this fact. If she knew that Van would betray the Demon Lord for this, she would definitely not mention it.

Van is an orthodox human, and he doesn't know that Alphonse is a demon hero at all.

He and Fred also have a delicate relationship of enemy and master-servant.

The words of his companion ignited the anger in his heart.

Sure enough, his suspicions were correct - the Demon Lord did not hesitate to lie to himself in order to use himself to achieve great things.

This time, he pretended to send demon soldiers to bring wound medicine, and it seemed that he was trying to continue to use himself. Van kicked the medicine bag on the ground open and moved on angrily.

Your own pain is your own business, and your own revenge can only be carried out by yourself;

No one can understand his patriotism, so no one can understand his hatred for the country.

-

On the thirtieth day of the dark moon, at dusk.

The retreat bedroom on the second floor of the hotel is silent and clean. The bedrooms are not furnished but neatly furnished.

The patient had long since woken up from his slumber and was lying in bed with his eyes closed. Dusk poured silently on the other side of the room.

The girl sitting next to the bed, Shirley ꔷ Haosenweier, was reading silently with a copy of "Wang Shi Tongjian" in her hand at this time.

She wasn't interested in Van Lentieno's history, she just wanted to learn about her companions and the stories of her past lives.

It's interesting to read a history book as a storybook – it's interesting to look at it that way. However, she believes that in this "storybook", there are too many subjective ideas of the storyteller, and there is a tendency to force infusion, which greatly limits the reader's imagination.

When I looked at the author, I found that it was a big man I had met the day before yesterday - the Marquis Alex.

When he read the book "Chapter of Prissia in the book", his companion slowly leaned out of bed. Seeing this, the girl put down the book, forgot to clip the bookmark, and raised her hand to help her companion get out of bed.

"Don't be a long-term sick patient...... You can do it yourself. ”

Shirley was worried about whether he was being reckless, and instructed: "Don't force it! ”

The feeling of standing for the first time in a long time. Filsa stretched out her arms and stretched her muscles as far as she could, exhaling as long as she could, and then took the coat that Shirley handed her and put it on.

Felsa felt a little paralyzed in her feet at this time. He walked to the window and peered through the glass to admire the street outside, stained with a faint twilight color.

"Why don't you go for a walk?" The companion walked up behind him and proposed.

Half an hour later, the two walked out of the hotel door.

About ten days ago, after leaving the desert with a group of knights, the two men came to this peaceful place for a short stay.

The Knights Brigade is a temporary strategic organization composed of some members of the Obsidian Knights and some members of the Knights of the Silver Wing, and there were more than 500 people when they were founded.

But during the crusade against the Demon Lord, half of the troops sent except for Filsa and Shirley did not survive.

Obsidian lost nearly half of his swordsmen and two-thirds of his archers, while Silver Wing was not much better than the former, losing a regiment of companions.

It wasn't until three days ago that Captain Fang Ente received an order from the headquarters to assemble and led all the Silverwing Knights back. As it happens, Firsa's name is not written in the collection list.

The Adventurer's Guild in Kanlan is already chasing the "human-demon hybrid" Filsa ꔷ Danritel, whose true identity has been discovered.

As in other periods in the past, discrimination against non-pure-blood people is widespread.

What's more, a half-human who is a hybrid of humans and demons has been expelled and hunted down.

These recent situations are exactly what Shirley is worried about at this time, and Filsa is not worried for the time being.

Before leaving, the captain informed the two that this town called "Danyin" was relatively safe for the time being, and that if they rested here for a few days, they should not let the adventurers know.

The wanted warrant from Kanlan will not reach the guild until at least the following Monday, when he crosses the desert with the newspaper deliverer.

The captain also mentioned that the town is not well-informed and the information transportation is not developed.

Therefore, in order to improve the facilities in this area, the magic guide communication device - the magic guide telephone was installed a few days ago, but the staff is still debugging.

The captain also reminded the two of them that if something happened, please leave Danyin as soon as possible, as everyone at Silverwing, including Obsidian's companions, understands.

Obsidian's friends, Frank Lampard and Olyna, finally learn about Filsa and the origin of his "magical perception" ability.

That's not the ability to be proud of, it's just the hardships and unspeakable secrets brought about by special status;

However, in order to slay demons, Filsa had to use such an ability.

Danyin is not big, it is a mini-city that has not yet developed. From the east of the city to the west of the city, on the way to the walk, the two did not say much, just silently admired the Christian-style houses along the way.

But the two of them weren't bored, dull, or uncomfortable because of their silence.

On the contrary, silence is another way of expressing it.

Filsa didn't have a sword on him, he didn't have the weight he should have on his waist, and he didn't feel very comfortable. Yuan Ben still felt very insecure, but the thought of having Shirley behind him eliminated his worries.

The two of them who were walking had almost exhausted Danyin, and they were walking towards the center of the city at the moment. The sunset scattered across the canopy has faded.

A circular pool in the style of Chris, has been built in the middle of the city.

As a result, the air is fresh and you have the wonderful feeling of roaming in the water.

Next to the pool, sat a pair of familiar figures.

The woman is carefully bandaging the wound on the man's right arm.

As for how serious it is, you can see the faint blood oozing out of the gauze.

These two are none other than Frank Lampard and Olina of the Obsidian Knights.

"Hey!" Felsa was the first to walk over to greet his friend.

After a round of walking, his complexion was much better, and he got rid of his sick look.

"You're in good spirits!"

"It's you, why did your hand hurt?"

Frank Lampard reflected on what happened today.

He led his squad out on routine patrols outside the Danyin - a rule set by the Obsidian Knights, who had to patrol the surrounding area every day to ensure the safety of the local population.

At that time, the two stumbled upon a horde of monsters hiding in the sand dunes and fought off the enemy, while Lampard was slightly wounded.

Not only him, but also a companion in the team was seriously injured and was being treated in the Knights' Guild.

Frank Lampard kept his promise and waited at dusk by the pool in the middle of the city for Olina to finish the day's work.

Due to the different tasks assigned to them, he went out on patrol, and she went to the Knights' Guild Library to sort out the documents, and she didn't see each other for almost two days.

"It's hard work, there's nothing we can do to help...... It's better to be careful. ”

"My injuries are fine, what about you, Firsa?"

Felsa talks about the encounter with the Demon Lord. Although the two of them have heard a little, they still don't know the details.

Filsa only gave a brief overview, discovering that there was an anomaly in the ice sculpture city standing in the desert, encountering the Demon Lord, inevitably taking action, and finally losing to the Demon Lord.

Shirley knew that Filsa had concealed the true identity of the Demon Lord.

In fact, he told Shirley about it when he woke up in a coma.

After all, "the Demon Lord is his father" is not something that can be said to outsiders casually.

"I see. Looks like this enemy is not easy to deal with. But you're lucky to be alive......"

At this time, Olina found that it was dark and there were few pedestrians on the road, so she first looked at Shirley, who had long been left aside, and then said to the two who were still talking, full of complaints: "Why do you two talk about business as soon as you meet?" ”

The two men finally stopped.

Olina chuckled, then suggested that the four of them go to a nearby restaurant for dinner.

Tired of the ordinary meals in the Knights' Guild Restaurant, the four of them walked to the most famous "Thor Hotel" in Danyin.

"I remember, I think I've been here before."

Entering the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, as soon as he took his seat, Filsa recalled, "I remember that time during the mission, but it was late, and dinner time had already passed." So I could only nibble on bread at the door with Shirley. ”

Olina and Lampard giggled at his humour, with a hint of regret.

"There's a lot of people here, but it's quiet." Shirley ignored Felsa's boring jokes and looked around.

I was really late last time, and I didn't finish the dinner that I should have eaten.

And since then, Shirley has been inexplicably full of anticipation for the meals at the Thor Hotel.

"It's our first time here, but it's a star-rated hotel, the atmosphere is good, I don't know how the dishes are?"

Olina took the two food introduction cards from the waiter and handed them to the two men present, "Over to you two!" ”

Filsa took it and skimmed through the text introduction. Whether it is the name of the dish or the introduction, it makes people salivate before they see the real thing, and it is difficult for him to choose for a while.

"Hey, the signboard is made of fragrant wood! No wonder it emits a pleasant scent...... Just smelling the fragrance is appetizing! With a sigh, Lampard ordered a steak set for two.

"Hmm...... We...... It's the same......" Filsa decided, thinking to himself that it would be right to order a set meal with someone who had more "experience in ordering" than herself.

Shirley kicked her companion under the table and whispered, "No opinion." ”

Four guests waited for the waiter to deliver the set menu, and he first brought a pre-dinner drink.

"Actually, I'm curious, when was the last time you came to Danyin?" Olina took a sip of orange juice and asked the two young men opposite.

She and Frank Lampard had been working together in Obsidian for five years, and had never been to such a remote city as the Knights.

So she was curious about the journey of Filsa and Shirley.

"I remember, I've been here twice. The first time was three years ago, and the time I came with Shirley was about a year ago, when the "Thor Hotel" was not so big, but what has not changed is the lightning sign on the signboard. It is said to have been conceived in imitation of the spear of Zeus, the main god of Greek mythology......"

"You've been working since three years ago, huh? Three years ago, I was only fifteen or sixteen years old...... "Olina was surprised.

She joined Obsidian with Frank Lampard after qualifying as a knight, at the age of twenty. That being said, twenty years old is the age at which a knight qualifies.

"That's right, I've been working since I left the academy."

Shirley listened quietly, Filsa rarely talked about the past, he was not a man bound by the past.

"So you and Shirley graduated from the same house together...... We've been together since we were students. ”

"Uh, no, no......" Filsa denied, "I actually left the ...... without officially graduating from the academy"

Shirley added, "I didn't know this guy until then." ”

When Filsa was still studying in the academy, he heard a teacher mention the situation of the Demon Legion that invaded the continent at that time, and the scale was not very large.

However, the teacher leaked a detail for Filsa to notice.

At that time, the leader of the Demon Legion was a bull-headed demon.

This detail reminded Fei of the painful memories of her mother's death due to the invasion of demons.

As a young man, he vaguely remembered that it was a minotaur who led the demons to attack the village.

Of course, it could be other demons of the same race.

However, the teacher then mentions that the Minotaur is a rare demon species.

In order to avenge his mother, he asked the teacher to take him to fight against the Demon Legion, but he was rejected and severely reprimanded. In the end, he secretly followed the teacher to the front line to fight the demons.

Whenever the teacher mentioned this, he would say this to me: "You didn't even know how to bandage your own wounds at the time, but it was a great death that you didn't die on the front line!" ”

Shirley, who had been quiet on the sidelines, suddenly burst out of a sentence, "There is such a thing, why haven't you told me about it." No wonder you don't know how to bandage and use medicine until now, it turns out that you ran out before you finished learning in school! ”

"Shirley is right...... Olina and Lampard agree with Shirley and smile as well.

It is a very dangerous act to recklessly go to the battlefield without knowing how to bandage, and Filsa and Shirley still talked about it with relish, and the young man in front of him was really ...... Too optimistic.

Soon, the waiter brought the four-point set menu to the table. Under the tempting aroma, these four people are not polite because they know each other very well, and they dine together. I have to say that the quality of the steak is indeed worthy of the reputation of this guesthouse.

"Anyway, what the hell have you two been doing lately, seeing you running around." Lampard put down his knife and fork, took a sip of orange juice, and then continued to lift the knife and fork to dispose of the meat on the plate.

After spending some time together, Filsa found that the two obsidian friends could be completely trusted.

So I plan to tell them my secrets.

"Have you heard the story of Alfonsiqing?"

Frank Lampard wondered how he could suddenly mention the hero of the kingdom, and responded, "I have heard that the head of the regiment, Lord the Marquis Alex, has often mentioned it in front of us. ”

"In fact, a mark similar to the emblem has recently appeared on my body, and after checking the relevant books, I found that it is very similar to Alfonsiqing's emblem "Arctic Radiance". But it wasn't quite the same, so I wanted to find out where the mark on my body came from. ”

The Filsa Hotel was crowded with people, and it was inconvenient to show the emblem in front of the two of them.

Frank Lampard was confused, but Olina knew more about the emblem, and had recently seen the emblem on Shirley's chest, so he was surprised: "You two...... All have the emblem? ”

Hearing her say this, Filsa also turned her head to look at Shirley in surprise, "Your emblem...... Also awakened? ”

Shirley nodded silently and smiled.

Felsa remembered a recent dream about memories of the kingdom.

Alphonse sent his army to the north to quarrel with Prissia

While bathing in the lake, she meets Van Lexsoe's men, and is persuaded by him to awaken at the same time, and then the whole person changes.

Filsa predicted that what would happen after that could be unsettling.

However, dreams are dreams after all, and even if they are a reenactment of history that has happened in the past, it is only history after all, and it cannot substantially affect the people of the present.

Priscia is also just Priscia, a princess of the kingdom who is no longer in this world;

And Shirley is Shirley, her own companion. These two are completely different.

However, Filsa couldn't help but recall the scene of Priscia bathing and dancing naked in the moonlight and the lake, and then looked at her companion, who was very similar in appearance, and her face turned red. That figure and that beauty are absolutely beautiful beyond words......

All in all, Filsa didn't have a good premonition about Shirley's awakening emblem.

However, at this time, he didn't think much about it, and left all his boring thoughts to continue to explain: "Anyway, I think Alfonsiqing may be related to my family, so I want to find out." ”

'Historically...... Lampard said as he swallowed the last piece of meat and wiped his mouth with a napkin, 'Alphonse didn't marry the princess and left no heirs. ”

"No, how is that possible?" Shirley seemed to feel a little sorry for this.

Lampard explained that there is also the possibility that Alphonse has left a mark on the earth, and that is the term "reincarnation" that is briefly recorded in ancient books.

It is said that in order to prevent the heroes of human beings, whose lifespan is usually less than 100 years, from being washed away and forgotten by the long river of history and time, God used divine power to let them return to the world after a hundred years of reincarnation and recreate glory.

Speaking of this, Lampard suddenly paused and stared at Felsa: "Thinking of this...... I'm realizing more and more that you do look a lot like Alfonsi! ”

Filsa thought to herself that he had made a joke too much, or perhaps it was a genuine appreciation.

But I don't know what to think when someone hears it, "That's too exaggerated, isn't it?" ”

In fact, Lampard did not say casually, there is indeed a marble statue in the principality, carved by the skillful hands of the kingdom's famous craftsmen, completely imitating the dignity and heroism of Alphonse, and it is the only one in the whole country, and it is of extraordinary value.

It is said that this is still the real body that Alfonsiqing turned into after his sacrifice.

Now this precious statue seems to have been transported from the West Sea to the north.

"Is that really the case?" Filsa secretly reminded himself in his heart that next time he would use a mirror or something in his dream, he would look like himself in his dream.

But when you think about it, it doesn't seem to have much to do with reincarnation, right?

While everyone was struggling with this detail, the final dessert was already on the table.

"Does anyone else know your two recent trips?" Lampard asked casually again.

"Yes, another of my dear friends, nicknamed Dragoons in the regiment."

"Celis ꔷ Dilanhat?" The heir of the "Dragon's Heart" family. ”

"It's him."

Filsa thought to herself, it turned out that that guy's fame had spread far and wide, and he was worthy of being the "ace" knight of the Silver Wing Knights.

"He's recently smashed a demonic nest." Frank Lampard is well informed, but Felsa is concerned about other details: 'Really...... It's a bit worrying that two people would rush into such a dangerous lair. His companions did not know magic. ”

Shirley had also seen Dragoon Celis before, "Hasn't he been alone all the time?" ”

"No, no, since the separation in the Holy Capital of Grancis, he has traveled with my stepsister."

"Oh...... That annoying girl......" Shirley muttered to herself, not being heard by the others.

"Hmm...... It seems that it is not safe to travel anywhere lately...... "Filsa continues to worry about the sky.

"You'd love to keep her with you, would you?"

"What? How could it be, our situation is even more dangerous, is it okay, we are hunted down by the enemy, and we are wanted by adventurers...... I can't think of anyone more unlucky than me, right now.

And I think Celis will protect her well, I can rest assured, he is a responsible person and can be trusted. ”

"That means if he can't be trusted, and if you can't put your mind at ease, you'll still let ......her follow you," Shirley muttered, stabbing her fork hard into the cream cake in front of her.

Olina and Lampard looked at the two opposites in silence, listening to the interesting conversation between them, with meaningful smiles on their lips.

"I say......" Olina interrupted, "we will have to ask Shirley and you to be the best man and bridesmaid in our future wedding!" ”

The two were speechless about Olina, who was joking about this, and in order to divert the topic, Shirley turned her attention elsewhere, "Actually...... I've been paying attention for a long time, both of them are wearing the same ring on the middle finger of their left hand, is that the legendary engagement ring? ”

Speaking of this, Olina was a little proud, "Sure enough, the girl's mind is more delicate, it's true, that's what I mentioned to you before." In order to motivate each other when they are in a low mood, they bump their rings with each other. ”

Both of them showed up at the same time the betrothed token just mentioned, set with a small ruby, but which was made extremely precious by the meaning given by the owner.

Felsa thinks so.

-

After the meal, the four of them strolled back to the Knights' Guild with a smile and a smile.

As he entered, an obsidian soldier inside whispered into Lampard's ear.

Lampard nodded, then turned to inform Firsa of the news he had just received: "The magic telecommunications device here has been commissioned...... The first call is for you. ”

Filsa pointed to herself, "Me? ”

Then he immediately ran to the call room on the third floor and picked up the microphone that he had been waiting for for a long time. "Hello."

"Fei? This is St. Zephys. ”

Filsa was taken aback, it turned out to be a teacher he hadn't seen for a long time.

There has been no contact since the beginning of the journey to find the source of the emblem.

So he changed his words and greeted: "Ah, hello teacher. ”

"Hmm. I heard from the captain about you, how is the injury? ”

"It's fine. Is there anything wrong with the teacher talking to me so late? ”

"Oh, because class just ended, so it's late, and I should have wanted to let you know a long time ago. Recently, however, I heard that you are wanted by adventurers for some reason. ”

"It's okay for the time being......" In fact, Mr. Sheng Ze Feisi also knows very well what "some reasons" means.

Because the teacher was the first elder to know Felsea's identity.

Seeing that Filsa was quite energetic when he was talking, he didn't say too much to greet, he went straight to the point, and spoke hurriedly: "It is said that your Ice Flame Sword was destroyed by the Demon Lord?" ”

Fille's mouth was full of guilt, and he confessed this fact with regret: "I'm very sorry. I didn't take care of the teacher's sword......"

"What stupid thing are you talking about? You're so lucky to be alive to talk to me after encountering the Demon Lord! ”

After hearing this, Filsa was a little inexplicably moved, "I'm fine, don't worry...... It's the Ice Flame Sword, and only one fragment remains. ”

The teacher comforted: "Don't worry about the weapons that have been lost......

After a brief pause, the teacher continued, "You just said that there is still a fragment of the Ice Flame Sword?" ”

"Yes. How to ......"

There was silence for a while, and the voice of Teacher St. Zephes was heard again, this time slightly excited. "Next, you're going to have to listen to me—"

"Okay."

"Listen to me, when the injury is healed, come back to the academy."

After hearing this, Filsa was a little reluctant, "Why?" ”

"Reforge your sword." The teacher was serious and gave the reason.

"......" This time it was the student's turn to be silent, and he wondered if the teacher's joke was too big, "Teacher, what do you think...... Will the elders of the academy reforge the sword for me? ”

Suddenly, there was a rustling noise from the microphone.

The other party seemed to be aware of this, and guessed that the call time was about to reach its limit, so he replied briefly:

"Fei, I know what you've been looking for lately. Come back to the Academy, this will help you continue to learn more about the Emblem and the Alfons Clan. "Northern Brigade" is also the road that Alfonsiqing has walked! ”

The teacher seemed to know something, and when Filsa was about to ask further, the call was cut off with a "click", and then he smelled pungent smoke coming from the computer room behind him.

He walked out of the call room and was still chewing on the teacher's meaning.

Shirley and Frank Lampard waited quietly outside.

As soon as he saw Filsa come out, Lampard reminded with a serious face: "Now that the magic guide phone has been debugged, the wanted news from the Kanlan Adventurers' Guild will arrive at any time." I guess you won't be able to stay here any longer. ”

He nodded in agreement, indicating that he understood the current situation.

Afterwards, Lampard said 'goodbye' and returned to the guild hall to meet Olyna.

Seeing her companion exhale deeply, Shirley asked, "When are we leaving?" ”

Filsa decided in his heart the purpose and direction of his future journey, and said to his companion: "Let us set out early tomorrow morning, just after dawn." Seemingly...... Had to go back to my college. The person I was talking to just now was Mr. Sheng Zefeis, the teacher I mentioned today who took me to the front line. He said...... He will reforge the sword for me. ”

Shirley nodded in understanding, and it was really reassuring to have someone to help.

"I wonder if I'll meet Celis on the way? Their destination is also the Far North Demon Martial Academy. ”

Filsa turned to leave.

"You...... I don't think I'm trying to say-" Shirley teased inexplicably behind her, "I wonder if I'll meet my lively sister on the way!" ”

Meanwhile, outside the guild hall, Frank Lampard found Olena who had been waiting for him to go out on patrol tonight.

Before leaving the guild, Olina reflected on today's anecdote, "You see, how cute they are. It's good to be young. ”

Lampard agreed: 'We don't think we've tried it before. ”

"yes, I won't mention how dull you used to be!"

"Okay, okay, I'll learn to be smarter in the future!"

-

In the middle of the night, the moon is obscured by layers of dark clouds, and it does not show a single glow.

Outside the east gate of Danyin City, an ominous fire lit up.

The knight patrol spotted a suspicious young man with an unidentified breath walking outside the east gate.

They clenched their grips on the hilt of their swords and watched carefully. Without saying a word or chanting a spell, the man unleashed a fireball in his hand, burning the nearest knight to charred corpse.

All the knights on the Obsidian patrol are in combat mode.

The young man smiled disdainfully at them, and tore the cloth around his arm, revealing a flame-colored mark.

The moment the knights saw it, their eyes were already obscured by the flames that were extremely bright.

It was the last flame they saw blooming in their lives.

The night sky was instantly lit with fire, and then quickly dimmed.

Most of the stone gates in the east of the city were destroyed by the sudden eruption of fire, and only a black stone pillar crumbling like a dead tree remained.

He found a knight who had been badly injured by the flames and was still breathing, lying on his back on the ground convulsing in agony.

He then walked up to the man, pressed his toe to his throat, and asked menacingly, "Where is your guild?" ”

The wounded man was delirious, but he was aware of the danger of the enemy in front of him. He just stared at the young man and didn't say a word.

The young man was very displeased with the stubborn appearance of the wounded, and with a force of his foot, he stomped his fragile throat off.

When he searched again to see if there were any survivors, he found that there was no living breath around him.

"I'll go find it myself."

The young man with a flaming tongue wrapped around his body, seeing that the obstacles that stood in front of his path of revenge had been swept away by the flames, his eyes turned to the depths of Danyin City, and he clenched his fists and walked inside.

-

The Knights' Guild was brightly lit, and the front desk attendant was already dozing off.

Frank Lampard and Olina had just returned from patrolling outside the west gates of the city, and were exhausted, but thankfully they didn't find any suspicious figures.

They were tired of the humble accommodation provided by the Knights' Guild.

So I booked a room from the Thor Hotel tonight.

After completing the work, making a report to the relevant personnel, and taking a break to drink a cup of milk tea, I found that there were not many people on duty in the guild. After that, they packed their things and prepared to leave the Knights' Guild.

Frank Lampard was about to shake the handle open the door when it was pushed open with a "bang" and the first thing that came in was a pungent smell of burning.

Olina screamed as her dying companion fell on top of Lampard.

"It's dangerous...... Fast...... Stop ......"

"Cheer up!"

Lampa watched his companion's horrific face, destroyed by the fire, and the corners of his parched mouth quivered as he spoke. But before he could finish his last words, his head hung crooked, and then he lost his breath.

Lampard silently laid down the deceased.

Olina tentatively asked, "Could it be ......?"

"Quite possibly."

What the two of them were vaguely referring to was the extremely strong flame youth they encountered in the sea of emerald snow trees a few months ago.

If he did attack, the city would be very dangerous.

Frank Lampard, acting as the Commander's deputy, immediately instructed his companions: "Gather all the Obsidian Knights at once, and set out in a quarter of an hour to defeat the powerful enemy!" ”

Within ten minutes, the Black Knights gathered on the first floor of the guild. After strictly inspecting the armament and counting the number of people, the Obsidian Knight was ready to set off.

Before leaving, Filsa and Shirley also rushed to the guild.

Awakened in the middle of the night by her magical senses, Filsa immediately knew who the enemy was, so she immediately rushed down from her bedroom.

The Obsidian Knights have assembled outside the door and are ready to go. Frank Lampard sheathed his saber and prepared it.

At this point, Filsa begged, "Please let me go with you!" ”

According to the Devil's Breath, the enemy who came to attack must be Brahmanti Taron, who came completely for himself. Despite his wounds, he asked to fight together.

'......No,' Lampard sternly refused, his tone was completely different from his usual tone, he couldn't possibly let the injured man play, 'you're hurt!' With that, he walked briskly to the door.

Filsa stubbornly followed, and Shirley couldn't stop her, "It's not the first time to fight with injuries!" ”

"You don't have a sword! How to fight the enemy? ”

Filsa avoided this point and emphasized: "This time the enemy is entirely directed at me, and since this is the case, I should not retreat!" ”

There was little time left to argue about it, and Lampard couldn't convince his stubborn friend. But he couldn't let Filsa fight.

A wounded person with no weapon in his hand, no matter who he is, no matter how brave, has only one way to die.

He yelled, "Don't be so reckless! ”

"As a knight, you shouldn't avoid it!"

“……”

"As a knight, I have to ......"

Halfway through the sentence, Felsea's eyes went black and he fell to the ground.

Shirley couldn't bear to follow his impulse, and refused to listen, so in desperation, she took advantage of her inattention and slashed a knife at the back of his neck, knocking him unconscious.

"Let's wait until you wake up to continue." She silently picked up her fallen companion.

Lampard breathed a sigh of relief and told Shirley before leaving, "Please take care of Fissa." If the enemy hadn't attacked, it would not have been a good place to stay for long. Simon is safer, so you two can get out of there. There is also a small village further west where you can take refuge. ”

She nodded, "The enemy is strong, be careful all the way." ”

-

From the front, from all the alleys, from all directions, rushing like the fierce waves of water elemental particles.

At present, within a certain range of its own existence, it has formed a water barrier. Not only that, but "water" is always moving and never stopping, and the barrier is constantly expanding. Those who are inside the barrier have a sea of disgust in their vision.

Van Ti Talon felt breathless, and the tongue of fire wrapped around his body dimmed a lot due to the encounter with his nemesis.

For the time being, he must fight in the enchantment laid by the enemy.

That said, it doesn't mean that the Brahmana is afraid.

This large-scale auxiliary magic enchantment cannot be built by the magic power of one person alone, at least a team of mages or magic knights must be used.

Van deduced that in this city, there were definitely a lot of magicians or magic knights.

The Fire Elemental is not as powerful as it should be in an enchantment.

As he was thinking about what to do, he suddenly noticed a terrifying agitation on the ground.

Then, an unknown group of demons surrounded him, and the corresponding agitation from the ground became more and more intense. The magnitude of the earthquake made Van dare not act rashly.

In an instant, dozens of spirals rose from the ground at the same time. Fan subconsciously jumped away and tried to escape the besieged area, but it was too late, and the body could not escape with all its might.

Transformed from earth and condensed by special magic into a cluster of rock-hard spires, it pierced into a point in the air and formed a huge cone, trapping enemies without gaps and airtight.

If there really is a slight loophole, then penetrating it is only the water elemental that can also make the fire elemental fearful.

From the outside, there was no movement in the group of stones.

Olinna's Water Enchantment "Pure Realm of Nothingness" and Lampard's advanced earth magic "Gaia's Dungeon" temporarily besiege the enemy.

The pillars that form a stone wall are as hard as steel as long as the source of mana is still there.

I want to break through the magic barrier named after Gaia, the goddess of the earth, with a higher level of magic.

Except for the Great Demon Guide Sage with the highest cultivation level, no one else could do it.

They managed to trap the enemy in the "dungeon". However, Van was only temporarily besieged, and the breath of life was not cut off, which they still knew well, so they didn't dare to be careless.

After a series of neat and rapid steps, the magic knights poured out of the alley in a queue, and immediately began to chant spells. Halfway through the song, the spell was interrupted by another wave of agitation from the earth.

Lampard didn't use earth magic, so the agitation that interfered with the chant was not his hand.

Rather than agitation, it can be described as "trembling"—when the earth is trembling regularly, wave after wave.

It's like a tonnage weight pounding the ground.

Dozens of pairs of surprised eyes fell on the stone pillars in unison.

As such, the sound and the shock waves came from the solid stone walls that surrounded them.

The stone pillars were trembling, and each tremor sent chills down the spine of those present. The walls were as hard as steel, and the cracks appeared and stretched wide. The trembling became more and more violent, and even the iron wall could only gradually disintegrate.

It is a martial art that can inflict such devastating power on "steel" and is not capable of being performed by a human being, even an ordinary warrior.

Frank Lampard was also incredulous about what was happening in front of him, knowing that the 'Dungeon of Gaia' was an impregnable barrier.

The obsidian magic knights didn't stop there.

Instead, they sped up and chanted magic, and it seemed that it was only a matter of time before the dungeon was shattered. All they have to do is give the enemy a rain of magical attacks when they escape.

Trapped to death, Van struck the obstacle with one punch after another, strong and fierce.

He first transformed all the fire magic contained in himself into scorching energy.

After the muscles and bones absorb extraordinary energy, the flexibility, strength, and even physical strength of the limbs break through the boundaries of human beings.

Since fire magic can't perform at its normal level in the water enchantment, it is better to use the magic energy consumed by fire magic for your own use to strengthen yourself.

Van 's fist was able to seriously injure the kingdom commander Saidira with a single blow in the past, how could the stone wall stump him now?

His waist strengthened, shrinking the fire demon energy into the meridians, and unleashed the most powerful inch punch.

This punch can exert the most explosive power in an extremely narrow range.

The dungeon could not trap the mad beast, and the stone wall was smashed open with a large hole, and stone fragments flew sideways.

At the same time, in order to deal with the enemy's escape, the knights have already formed a vertical magic array in mid-air, forming a series of "magic launch pads", aiming for a long time.

As soon as the enemy is seen, the magic launch pad snipes at the same time.

Magic cannonballs of ice, fire, wind, thunder, and other elements are fired in a volley.

Seeing this, Van immediately jumped and flashed into the nearest alley, using the building as a temporary anti-artillery fortress.

Thanks to the addition of fire magic energy, Van was much more agile, his body was unharmed, and he didn't hit a single bullet when he dodged the "cannonball" just now.

The dense magic barrage was like a hurricane, instantly blowing down the building behind Fan. He quickly thought about countermeasures to reverse the counterattack.

After looking around, he found that he could not escape the enemy's water barrier wherever he looked, and it was estimated that this range of magic had covered the entire city.

Obsidian had long expected that Van would definitely be a near-horror fighter in close combat, and Olina and Lampard had suffered such losses in their last confrontation.

That's why it's combined with enchantments and long-range magic containment.

If Van wants to leave the barrier, he must defeat all the magic knights present.

The "Hurricane Blow" of the magic cannonball lasted only a few seconds.

But for Brahma, who kept changing places to avoid it, it was as long as hours.

Seeing that the enemy's attack "artillery fire" has stopped for a while, it is guessed that they must be spending time chanting the second round of magic.

It was a brilliant opportunity for a reversal, as Van flashed out of his half-ruined hideout and approached the enemy with great speed, vowing to destroy the entire enemy army with his fists.

However, this time he miscalculated. He missed the Obsidian Knight's archers.

Hundreds of arrows are ready to shoot at the running live target.

"Second round! Attack! ”

In order to fight against the rain of arrows, which was even denser than just now, Van was forced to make this decision - to burst out all the demonic energy stored in his body as a temporary barrier.

But the barrier was instantaneous, but the rain of arrows continued, and the magicians sang a second wave of magic and threw a large number of whirlwind blades.

Van was not afraid of the rain of arrows. Since he had previously strengthened his muscles and bones with fire demon energy, his skin had become hard, and it was difficult for ordinary arrows to hurt him, even if he wanted to pierce this steel target and stay on it.

The arrow left a minor skin wound on Van and then fell to the ground and became waste.

However, the Magical Whirlwind Blade is very different from normal arrows.

Originally, this low-level wind magic didn't do a lot of damage to people.

It would be a different matter if they could be launched in a group and attacked in groups.

The biggest threat to Van is not a rain of arrows, but a "rain of swords".

Brahma's "hardening of the flesh" can only effectively defend against sharp weapon wounds, and has no immunity to magic at all. Therefore, at this time, Brahma is not an arrow target, but a "knife target".

A hurricane of whirlwind knives roared like a broken candle.

The flesh and skin are "hissed" by a sharp blade of the magic particle level, causing intense pain.

I wonder if it's the scream of the body or the bite of a sharp blade?

This kind of pain is all over the body, and it is impossible to tell where it is the worst.

Obsidian's magic knights and archers snipe at the same time, and they have a third wave of attacks—the swordsmen at the rear.

The scars are accumulating. Brahma's demonic energy was exhausted, and he collapsed in a pool of blood in pain and weakness. It seems that the defeat of the army is a foregone conclusion, and Obsidian does not dare to relax, and he does not dare to relax until the enemy cuts off his breath.

Did it just fall...... Frank Lampard wondered if there was any deception, but no one who had been struck by such a violent whirlwind of magic would be able to stand up well.

Unless it's the "war ghosts" who have turned a blind eye to pain and death.

Did it just fall...... Van thought bitterly because he had not completed his revenge, and his limbs did not obey the call and could not move.

Hands trying to grab some leaning, but that can't be done. His eyes were blurred with blood......

At the last moment, he recalled various experiences, situations and thoughts from the past-

the ceremony of crowning himself at the palace of his master, Van Rexso, and the insult inflicted on him on the battlefield by his enemy Alphonse;

the former prosperity of the motherland Van Len Tieno, the abhorrent prosperity of the modern Principality of Van Len Tieno;

The oath of service to the country and the will to take revenge.

Everything condensed into a sentence in my heart, a spell urging myself to stand up again against the enemy:

It definitely can't end here!

The emblem should be rejuvenated by the strong burning will in the owner's heart.

Meanwhile, Lampard noticed something was wrong with Van Van. Strike first, he orders his soldiers to strike before the enemy gets back on their feet again!

The rain of arrows, wind blades, and magic cannonballs are overwhelming.

There was a burst of bombardment, but Fan never got up, if he could still sense the enemy's faint breath, others would have thought that he had died.

The wounds on Fan's body continued to bleed and flowed to the ground. A slight friction ignited a flame.

"Impossible! How can there be flames in enchantments? After witnessing a faint light like a spark from the rushing gray smoke, Olina exclaimed, and fear began to grow inside.

They underestimated the power of the emblem.

It was a mystical power that could turn the principle of elemental restraint upside down beyond recognition.

The Flame Emblem converts the blood of Brahma into demon blood, the blood of demons, which is used as a source of demonic energy.

Brahma's demonic blood spread on the ground, divided into eight traces, and "crawled" like life. They instantly became a huge emblem, and the flames burned vigorously along their lines, even emitting an extremely bright white light that was different from usual.

"This ......" Frank Lampard was shocked and immediately ordered his men to launch a fourth wave of attacks, which must be a complete victory before the enemy could rise to his feet.

But it was too late. Brahman had already wrapped around the white "Ultimate Fire" and rose from the ground again.

Two unbridled flames of anger stared directly at the enemy.

The ultimate flame generated by the emblem can be easily ignored even by the water elemental, and can even be used as a medium for ignition. And this medium has long spread throughout the city.

The Brahman stomped on the ground, and the magic caused a landslide and the earth cracked. The huge emblem under his feet came to life, and countless sparks rose like rain.
