Chapter 5: The Sage of the Dead (I)

"Next time you come out, it's better to let the royal guards follow, although it seems that you are an idiot who attacked you this time, but there will be no more accidents. Taylor looked at Di Xue, blinked a pair of big dark blue eyes, and said very seriously.

In fact, as the eldest prince of the Manhua Empire and the future successor of the imperial throne, it stands to reason that Emperor Xue must be followed by a large number of royal guards, whether it is open or secret.

In fact, it used to be the case, but since Di Xue was fourteen years old, the royal guards had no choice but to find that their eldest prince always seemed to have a way to get rid of their group of royal guards.

Di Xue actually just left the Eternal City at most and went to the Divine Law Academy, but he naturally loves loneliness and freedom, and a group of people follow his ass all day long, which makes him very disgusted.

In this, Taylor, a genius and beautiful assassin who has been practicing with the contemporary leaders of the Brotherhood of Light since childhood, certainly has a lot of credit for it.

Assassins are the best at concealment, not to mention the Grand Mentor of the Brotherhood of Light, a disciple of the legendary number one assassin in the world?

The Emperor of the Manhua Empire, that is, Di Xue's father, was also helpless about this habit of his eldest son, so he had to send Xu Bo, a master-level martial arts master, to protect him.

The grandmaster level is already a top powerhouse who can run rampant on the continent, with the protection of such a super powerhouse, plus the powerful and amazing magic talent of Divine Snow itself, in the Eternal City and the Eight Great Cities, who dares to do it against him?

Di Xue said nonchalantly: "I don't like those people to follow, hmph, besides, if you want to kill me silently, unless the master-level legend Cun Zài personally can do it." ”

Taylor glanced at him helplessly, the corners of Di Xue's mouth curled slightly, looked at Taylor and said, "Do you remember the scene when you dragged me around the Eternal City when you were a child, hiding from the royal guards?"

Taylor laughed too, as if remembering that innocent time.

It's a pity that before she could fall into the memory, she found that Di Xue's face changed suddenly.

Even if Di Xue judged that the person who organized the previous assassination in the forest was an idiot, he had not dispelled the doubts and vigilance in his heart, he was not a gentleman who had no one in his eyes, and he could organize the assassination of the imperial prince together, even if the means were so despicable and the assassination members were so wasteful, it was impossible for an ordinary person to do it, and such a ridiculous assassination aroused his suspicions.

Because, the assassins who assassinated him in the pine forest before seemed to have come to send him to death.

It wasn't that he hadn't thought that someone was testing his reality, but so what? it was impossible for someone to kill him silently without the help of a master-level powerhouse.

However, there are very few master-level powerhouses, and there are not a few in the entire continent, and their whereabouts are the objects of strict monitoring by the empire, because such powerhouses have the power to destroy the world at every turn.

And the closest master-level powerhouse to the Eternal City is the chief archmage of the Divine Law Academy, that is the teacher who taught him magic, could it be that the teacher who taught him since he was a child would come to kill him?

If there was no master-level powerhouse to help, under Xu Bo's protection, even if he found more than four powerhouses at the level of a magic guide or a martial arts master, it would be impossible to kill him with a single blow and then retreat.

But who else but the empire itself, who can recruit so many strong people on the continent without the empire noticing?

Therefore, although Di Xue was suspicious, he did not immediately send a magic signal for help, but wanted to secretly investigate after arriving at the Divine Law Academy, because he felt that the forest attack was very strange.

It's just that Di Xue didn't expect that the people who wanted to kill him really didn't have the ability to find a master-level legendary Cun Zài to work for them, but they found a big killing weapon that was about to rival the blow of a master-level powerhouse.

Di Xue's powerful and amazing magical talent made him the first to discover the three faint magical breaths among the three people in the carriage.

The three magical breaths went from faint to majestic, but in an instant, he only had time to yell: "Jump out of the car!"

Among the three people in the wooden carriage, Taylor was the next to spot danger immediately after Dexue, a powerful assassin with a natural sense of danger, which led her to act before Dexue shouted "jump the car".

Taylor's figure flashed, and he jumped out of the car window in the direction of the knight's cemetery.

Although Xu Bo had the highest realm among the three, he was a martial arts master in the Grandmaster realm, but his awareness of the magical aura was not as good as that of Taylor and Di Xue, so he reacted a little slower among the three, and narrowly avoided the three powerful magic torrents before they arrived.

The bustling veins on the wooden carriage suddenly dazzled, and a huge cyan light shrouded the carriage in an instant, several times more powerful than when he had resisted bows and arrows in the forest before.

One red, one yellow, one blue, three huge balls of magical light shot from a small dirt slope in front of the carriage, and the balls of light dragged a long tail flame, which contained terrifying magical energy.

Even if Di Xue's car was extremely expensive and luxuriously blessed with a wind magic array carved by the magister himself, because it was impossible to carry too many magic crystals on the carriage, it was impossible for the magic array on the carriage to really exert the defensive ability of the magic guide, and it was only at the level of the peak of the sage.

But this is also a very powerful defensive magic array, so when I was in the forest before, those ordinary bows and arrows couldn't break through a single bit.

But at this time, this defensive magic array was not enough to see before the three magic light balls containing terrifying energy.

Red, yellow, and blue, three balls of magic light slammed into the cyan magic light mask, and the magic light mask was squeezed and dented by the impact of the powerful and incomparable force, and then shattered.

Three magic balls of light bombarded the wooden carriage one after another, and the carriage without any defense could no longer resist, and was blasted into pieces in an instant, and the three magic balls exploded, and the endless magical energy contained in them impacted wildly, and the two white horses pulling the cart did not even make a wail, and they became ashes.

Di Xue and Taylor had already run more than ten meters away, and were about to rush into the knight's cemetery in front of them, but they were still rushed by the majestic and raging magical energy behind them, and they almost fell.

Di Xue looked back at the small hill in the distance, from where three magic light balls were shot, his dark blue eyes burned with endless anger, and he shouted angrily, "Demon Crystal Cannon!"

It is the magic crystal cannon used by the Manhua Empire to defend the city wall, Di Xue has naturally seen it, he has even participated in the improvement of the latest magic crystal cannon, this style of magic crystal cannon is lighter and easier to transport, it is the new magic flying machine that the empire is preparing to equip on the new magic aircraft being developed, but I didn't expect it to be used by these people to bombard himself at this time!

In just a moment, the magic crystal cannon was recharged, and three huge balls of magic light, red, yellow, and blue, blasted towards Di Xue and Taylor.

Taylor pulled Di Xue and ran, there was only one road in front of them, and there was the knight's cemetery in front of them, maybe the graveyards of the stele forest could make them hide.

The magical energy exploded behind them, and the knights' cemetery was undisturbed for thousands of years, while the neatly arranged tombstones were destroyed by the fish.

I don't know how many tombstones have been smashed into pieces by the turbulence of magic, and the small white flowers planted among the grass have been blown into the sky by the impact, poignant and sad, as if they are mourning the person who disturbs the knight's rest.

Di Xue and Taylor rushed forward, and magic cannonballs descended from the sky behind them, tombstones turned into pieces, and white petals scattered, flying, and annihilating the world.

The torrent of magical energy washed away the black ribbon that Di Xue usually used to bind his hair, causing his long black hair to dance with the flowers in the rain of flowers.

Taylor dragged Di Xue to run wildly between the graveyards of the Stele Forest, just like when she was a teenager, the girl pulled the prince to run through thousands of households and intricate roads and alleys in the Eternal City.

A diamond ring on Di Xue's finger flashed, and a man-tall clerowood staff appeared in his hand, and he raised it high into the sky as he ran.

The crimson light flashed, and a fire-type magic missile flew into the air, and the magic missile flew extremely high, because this was not an offensive magic, just a signal magic, so of course the higher it flew, the better, the missile exploded in the air, and a big crimson "emperor" appeared in the sky.

On the hillside, between the Huai Forest, the middle-aged man stood behind the three magic crystal cannons, looking at the big emperor character in the sky and couldn't help but leave a cold sweat, at this time the magic crystal cannon also stopped bombarding, and bursts of green smoke came out of the hot barrel.

There was a vicissitudes of life roaring from the bottom of the hillside, Xu Bo was like a demon guardian who came to the world from the Ten Thousand Demon Realm, his black butler clothes fluttered in the wind, and the vast darkness was full of fighting spirit, Xu Bo was really angry this time, the dark fighting spirit of the Grandmaster Realm was fully released, and his cultivation was exhausted, and he was going to blast this small hillside into pieces.

But in front of him is also a powerful earth system fighting spirit, the assassins actually found a strong man who is also a grandmaster-level to deal with Xu Bo, obviously the assassin knows Di Xue very well, Xu Bo's dark system fighting qi attack power is incomparable, but when encountering a strong earth-based grandmaster-level powerhouse known for its defense, it is difficult to break through for a while.

What's more, although he narrowly avoided the bombardment of three magic cannonballs before, he still suffered some shocks.

"Damn, it's been a break before you even kill him, send a signal and let Jack's people do it!" the middle-aged man roared.

After all, it is not in the Eternal City, the magic crystal cannon does not have the support of the infinite energy of the Tower of Eternity, it is only activated by magic crystals, and without the assistance of the water cooling auxiliary circle, it will enter a period of intermission if it continues to attack for a while.

Hearing the order, the middle-aged man's subordinates immediately fired a magic flare into the sky.

As soon as the huge flame in the sky dissipated, another magic flare that was also crimson flew into the sky and exploded.

The Crystal Cannon entered a break and temporarily stopped bombardment, but Taylor and Di Xue also had to stop in the midst of the forest of steles.

Because there were at least a dozen black shadows in front of them, after seeing the signal flare on the hillside, or from the distant woods, or from the shadows in the cemetery, rushing towards the two.

"At least five high-ranking samurai!" Taylor said solemnly.

Di Xue looked at the dozen or so masters rushing in the distance, these people were far stronger than the people who had just attacked and killed him in the forest, except for the five high-level warriors, the rest of them were at least beginner and intermediate martial arts powerhouses.

And Di Xue's naturally strong spiritual sense told him that there were two magicians in the distance who were at least in the same sage realm as him!

There was a sound of chanting magic spells in the stele forest, and the two sage-level magicians also attacked, and these turned out to be two magic sages of the undead department.

From the very beginning when Di Xue was attacked, he and Taylor jumped out of the car, and then they had only one choice, which was to run to the forest of steles in the knight's cemetery, if the two chose other directions, they would inevitably become the target of the magic crystal cannon on the empty official road, and only the knight's cemetery with tombstones, trees and statues might allow them to hide and hide with the help of complex terrain.

However, the assassin obviously thought of this, and ambushed more than a dozen martial arts powerhouses and two necromancers in the jungle behind the cemetery, and the undead aura condensed in the cemetery, which was the best place to perform undead magic.

When Di Xue and Taylor entered the cemetery, they waited as if they had entered their own cemetery.

These people were ambushed far away at first, and the powerful Dixue and Grandmaster-level Xu Bo didn't notice that the aura of the undead was immense, and there were bone claws sticking out of the several graves next to Di Xue and Taylor, or pale, or black-gray bone claws forcefully peeled off the soil covering their bodies, which was very terrifying.
