Chapter Seventy-Six: The Meeting of Fates [III.]
Wolongya Waterfall, the source of the water veins of the moat of the Lion War Crusader City, is located in the northeast of the royal city, when Constantine I was building the royal city, he spent a lot of money to hire dozens of high-level elemental mages from the magician union to build the largest gravity magic circle in the Noah continent here, with the operation of the magic circle, the underground water veins within a radius of tens of thousands of miles are all gathered here, forming an artificial waterfall with a drop of hundreds of meters.
According to the accounts of the workers who built the circle and the aqueduct, somewhere at the bottom of the waterfall, Constantine I sealed twelve pieces of epic equipment to protect the fortune of the entire kingdom at the core of the circle. As the years alternate, every king of the royal city will arrange for the most elite forces to guard the surrounding areas of Wolongya Waterfall and guard the epic equipment sealed in the magic circle.
In the early morning, the dense bushes and low woods around Wolongya Waterfall were hazy, and four figures were carefully hiding on a low slope, it was Cohen and Elvis and others. After last night's discussion, it was decided that Camille and Xuelu would continue to hide in the basement of the rock house, after all, Camille was not suitable for strenuous exercise when he was seriously injured, and this time he came to Wolongya Waterfall to avoid the heavy soldiers guarding along the way, and no one dared to pack a ticket if he could contact Princess Sylvana without alarming the guards. As long as you make a wrong step, you may attract the entire Wolongya garrison, and then let alone retreat, whether you can get out of Wolongya Waterfall alive is a question.
"Elvis, we've been here for almost two hours, are you sure Princess Sylvana will really go through this trail to Wolloya Falls to get water?" Rachel said as she wiped her dewy face with a rough linen cloth, as a dwarven warrior, the damp environment was the least of their favorites, and there was no one.
Elvis stretched out his chubby little finger and pointed to a small tree not far away, and said, "Sister Sylvana once took me to rest under that tree, when I had nothing to do in the royal city, I once came with her to fetch water, and then I didn't go too early. But I would never be mistaken about this road, because Sister Silvana said that this road is the path with the fewest sentinels in the entire Wollongya Waterfall, and she loves the air here, it is very fresh. ”
Cohen sighed, pouted at Rachel Nunu, and said, "Hold on a little longer, if the dew clears away, Princess Silvana will have to retreat before she appears, fortunately our position is still a long way from the waterfall, otherwise with the shrewdness of that group of mid-level guards, maybe we would have been surrounded by people and waiting to be killed." ”
Rachel couldn't help but remember that when he set off, he had asked Elvis how the combat strength of the guards of the Wollongya Waterfall was, and at that time Elvis tilted his little head and thought for a while, and said: "I heard the attendants in the royal city say that the strength of the escort regiment is not far from that of the Black Rock Skeleton Escort Regiment, probably the strength of the middle-level martial artists, and the captains of the escort regiment are basically high-level martial artists." Fortunately, there are not many of them, and the total number of guards in the entire Wolongya is only about eighty!" When Rachel heard this, he couldn't wait to split Elvis's little head with an axe to see what he meant by 'about eighty people'.
After learning about the combat power of the guards, Rachel's proposal to enter the Wolongya Waterfall last night became a joke, and the dwarf drooped his head and looked at Cohen, and said depressedly: "A middle-level martial artist can abuse the four of us and can't find the north, if there are more than eighty, Cohen, can I quit?" Before Rachel could finish speaking, Kraft's sharp giant axe went straight across Rachel's neck. "Well, actually, I'm just talking about it!" Rachel said to Kraft with a happy smile as she looked at the blade with murderous intent.
Just when the three of them were chatting without a word, Kraft, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, suddenly straightened up, pulled out a giant axe, pointed ahead, and whispered, "Someone is coming!" Everyone hurriedly leaned down and looked in the direction indicated by Kraft, only to see two blurry figures slowly appearing in the dense forest.
Cohen poked Elvis in the shoulder and whispered, "Is it your sister?"
Elvis nodded his little head, pointed to the more petite figure behind him and said, "It should be her, it is her squire Lady Shalene who opened the way in front, shall we go over now?" Elvis stood up anxiously after speaking, and planned to rush out of the city to greet Sylvana.
At this time, Kraft suddenly held Elvis and whispered, "Don't move, there are still people!" The four of them immediately lay down in the bushes, and carefully probed in the direction of Sylvana through the gap in the dense bushes. As the minutes ticked by, Sylvana was about to walk past the bushes in front of the four. Elvis couldn't contain his excitement, and took advantage of Kraft's lack of attention to push his right hand away and rushed straight out of the bushes, shouting Sylvana's name and running towards her.
At this time, Sharin, who was opening the way in the dense weeds, suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from the bushes in front of her, and hurriedly stopped, drew the silver stabbing sword at her waist, and protected it in front of Sylvana. The two of them looked at a fat figure in the thick mist not far away who was speeding up and running towards this side, Sha Lin took a step forward with her sword in her hand, and shouted: "Who is in front, Sylvana, the third princess of the Anasta Empire, is here!" After speaking, he said a standard starting posture towards the running figure, ready to give him a fatal blow at any time.
"Sister, it's me, Elvis!" a familiar voice came from the fog again.
Sylvana pulled Sharin's sleeve and whispered, "It seems to be Elvis's voice!" Sharin shook her head and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, the fourth prince has been missing for two days, and suddenly appeared here, beware of fraud!" After speaking, he still looked at the figure that was getting closer and closer.
Finally, the blurred figure appeared clearly in front of the two of them, looking at the familiar figure, Sylvana pushed away Charlene and ran quickly to Elvis, hugged him in her arms, tears couldn't help but flow, choked and cried: "Where did you go, in the past two days that you have been missing, my mother and I have sent people everywhere to look for you, my father has come to you three times and I have deceived you, are you greedy to run out to play and forget to go back?" Elvis was aggrieved and lying in Sylvana's arms, her little head kept rubbing against her chest, this kind of heartfelt care, in addition to his sister Sylvana can give herself, Elvis has not known how long she has not been loved.
"Sister, I have a lot to say to you!" Elvis looked up at Sylvana, looking pitiful.
Sylvana gently stroked Elvis's cheek, and said with a smile: "Look at your aggrieved appearance, are you being bullied by someone, tell my sister, I will ask someone to clean them up!" After speaking, she gently kissed Elvis's forehead to comfort him.
Just as Elvis was about to tell Sylvana what had happened in the past two days, a gloomy voice suddenly came from behind the three of them: "Kino, I said that as long as you follow the third princess, you will definitely be able to find this fat fourth prince. As soon as the words fell, two warriors in black suits, wearing silver filigree masks, and carrying a knight's giant sword, slowly walked out from behind a big tree.
A smile appeared on the corners of the two of their mouths under the silver filigree masks, and they slowly pulled out the knight's giant sword from their backs and walked towards the three Elvis, Shalene watched the two people who were plotting against each other draw their weapons, and quickly raised their swords to block in front of Sylvana, and said in a deep voice: "Princess, run, follow the path to the Wolongya Waterfall Guard Group for help, I'll drag them." After Sha Lin finished speaking, the sword flashed with a white light, mixed with a piercing sound of breaking through the air, and stabbed towards the two men in black.
"Firefly light!" a man in black raised the knight's giant sword, and a textbook-standard blocking posture shook Sha Lin's bayonet sword and flew out of the air, and then the giant sword slapped on Sha Lin's chest, and the whole person immediately flew out of the gun, and rolled on the ground twice after knocking down a few bowl-thick trees, and then completely lost his breath.
"You killed her?" Sylvana looked at the man in black in front of her in disbelief, she didn't expect that Sha Lin, who had been following her for a long time, was actually killed in one move, at this time she was really shocked and angry, and pulled Elvis behind her, and said angrily: "Do you dare to kill innocents indiscriminately in the Lion War Crusader City, don't you want to live?"
Hearing Sylvana's reprimand, the man in black named Kino obviously hesitated for a moment, then turned to his companion behind him and asked, "Dick, if you really want to kill them, you won't cause trouble, right?"
The man in black behind Keno smiled indifferently: "Kill it, kill it, if you die, a princess and a prince die, your and my names are probably engraved in history, if you can't do it, then you don't have to bother, but you don't want to get a piece of the 500,000 gold coins." Dick shook the knight's greatsword violently, slashed a large tree beside him, and walked straight towards Sylvana and Elvis.
When Kino heard Dick say that if he didn't hurt the killer, he couldn't participate in the division of money, and suddenly he clenched the knight's greatsword and jumped high with his feet, and the knight's greatsword slashed directly at Sylvana and Elvis with a strong sound of breaking through the air, vowing to cut off the two of them with a single sword.
"Don't!" Sylvana exclaimed, squatted down and hugged Elvis, looking at her brother's frightened eyes, Sylvana covered Elvis's eyes with one hand, and silently said in her heart: Father, take care of your body!
Just as Keno's knight greatsword was about to slash at Sylvana and the two, a tall figure sprinted into Kino's attack with lightning speed, and a giant axe with a flickering cold light slowly stabbed Keno at an angle unimaginable to ordinary people in the face of the powerful attack. If Keno continued to attack, the glittering blade of the great axe would disembowel him from the bottom up. If Keno wants to save himself, the only way is to forcibly interrupt the offensive and use his strength to block this terrifying attack.
"Bell !!"
A dull sound of metal colliding echoed around Wolongya Waterfall through layers of mist.
"Hell!" Dick's brows furrowed for no reason after hearing the loud sound of metal colliding, the nearby guard group must have been alarmed, but he finally discovered Elvis's whereabouts, and he was really unwilling. But compared to his own life, Dick still gritted his teeth and shouted, "Kino, withdraw!" After speaking, his figure exploded, and disappeared into the thick fog in a moment. Keno saw that Dick ran first, and he was even more unintentional, and the knight's giant sword was violently withdrawn and slashed forward, taking advantage of the gap in the opponent's defense to attack again and then turn his head and run directly.
Seeing the two disappear without a trace in an instant, Sylvana didn't react from the fright, but just looked at the big man holding the giant axe in front of her stupidly, and asked, "Who are you?
