Chapter 9: The Resurrection
Everyone followed the sound to the deepest part of the cave, there were still traces of freshly excavated caverns around the huge cave, a large magic circle carved in the very center of the cave, covered with dense runes, and the edge of the magic circle lay lifeless Hugh. At this time, Machilos was picked up by the neck by a monster covered in pitch black armor, and when Machilos stopped struggling, he casually threw him aside and turned to face the Wendini who arrived.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we meet again!" Neither his voice nor his appearance were any different from those of a human, and if it weren't for the black mist that haunted him and the scene that happened to bump into Magilos that devoured him, he would definitely not be associated with the "demon".
"Alfonso!" Wentini stared at the emblem of the Church cross on his chest, the keel stolen by Macchilos and the others, and the diary found in the cave that day. A hint of surprise was fleeting, and he looked at Wentini, who revealed his identity, and said, "I admire your wisdom. After Angela was killed in battle that day, I survived by luck, and I inherited the power of an adult as a dying man, and at the same time, I was given the great mission of fulfilling the will of an adult. ”
Alfonso looked at the silent crowd and continued: "You are strong enough to show your strength in the next new era, whether it is humans, demons, elves, dwarves, all of them will look up to you!
"Traitors who renounce their faith, your words have no credibility at all. The Devil's Gate will not be opened for you!" Wentini drew his sword and pointed it at Alfonso. A black sword condensed in Alfonso's hand, and with a swing of the sword, the sound of breaking through the air was like the desperate wail of the dead.
"It seems that you have made a choice, and if it weren't for the enemy, I might have spared your life. Then you will be the food for my recovery!" said the black sword and swung it towards Wentini.
"Whoa, whoa. Zofie took the lead in shooting two green feather arrows, although they were both dodged, and the black mist where the arrows grazed could not be recovered immediately. "Having such strength at such a young age is worthy of being a unique talent of the elf clan, which is really enviable. Alfonso said as he brushed away the remaining traces of magic from his shoulder.
Miel took advantage of Alfonso's pause to launch an offensive, but was unexpectedly held by Alfonso with one hand, and suddenly the long sword was wrapped in golden light, and a backhand sword split Qiu Lin several meters away, looking at the long sword that was held, his eyes were full of nostalgia.
"Angela's saber? After saying that, he let go of the golden long sword, Miyle immediately retreated a few steps back, Alfonso swung the black long sword and slashed it head, Miyle raised his sword to block, and at the moment when the two weapons collided, the golden light burst out again, but despite this, Miel was still slowly pressed to the ground.
Osius launched a surprise attack from behind, but was dodged by Alfonso and punched Oshus in the chest, and even the man flew out with a sword, but fortunately was caught by Chulin. Despite this, he still suffered a lot of trauma, and a large mouthful of blood kept coughing up from his mouth, so Zofie had to give up the attack and use the residual strength to heal.
Intending to deliver the final blow to Miel was intercepted by Wentini, Alfonso abandoned Miel and stomped him to the ground to meet Wentini's attack. At the moment of contact with the weapon, Wentini, whose body had reached the limit, could no longer hold the long sword and was directly shocked into the air.
With the door wide open in front of him, Alfonso seized the opportunity to stab Wendini in the heart, and at the last moment, Wendini avoided the fate of being pierced by the heart, and the sword still pierced her left lung. Blood kept pouring out of the wounds and mouth, and the leather armor he was wearing looked even more bewitching.
Time seemed to stop when he saw that Wentini's body began to fall, Churin let out a roar and rushed towards Wentini, and Zofie raised his longbow at Alfonso.
At this moment, Alfonso was wrapped in many strange runes, and a weak voice from behind him came from Macchilos: "Teleport." Alfonso vanished the moment the rune shattered.
"Bring Wentini here, maybe save it. Macchilos struggled to his feet, propped up on his staff, looking like an old man in his old age. Churin didn't have time to think and rushed to Macchilos with Wentini in his arms.
The faint breath showed that Ventini was not completely dead, and that it was only a matter of time before he was so traumatized. Macchilos commanded Chulin to lay Wentini flat on the ground, and then chanted a jerky incantation, black runes that had never been seen before enveloped the two of them, and Zofie was about to kill Macchilos.
Macchilos waved his hand at Zofie and said, "Don't worry, this is a secret technique in the dark arts, 'exchange', which can transfer her injuries to me. I no longer have the right to exist, but you are the hope of this age, and this life of mine was originally saved by His Highness Losh, and now I will return it to his daughter. ”
Over time, Wentini's wounds healed at a rate visible to the naked eye, and finally her left arm was able to move normally, except for the laceration and blood in her leather armor.
After accepting Wentini's injury, Macchilos could no longer support it and fell to the ground, blood staining the white robe on his body, trying to support him with his hands, but Zoffie quickly helped him up.
"Why did you save me, and when did you know who I am. Wentini asked Macchilos two questions in a row. Macchilos smiled faintly, and then answered her question: "When I found His Highness Losh and you, I was about to retreat, but I was ambushed by the enemy, and I was rescued by His Highness. ”
"So you know where I came from, tell me. "Wendini desperately wants to know everything about herself. After coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood, Machiros continued: "I don't know much either, except that you are half-elf, with human and elven blood. ”
Wentini immediately stared at Zoffie, hoping to get more information from him. Zaffe looked around at the people around him and said, "Now is not the time to talk about this, I will tell you everything I know when I get out." After thinking about it a little more, Wendini stopped asking.
"And then there's another question, where did Alfonso go?" Wentini remembered the enemy who had suddenly disappeared just now. "I teleported him to the realm of San Trenlido, where the power of the Church should be able to defeat him. Macchilos's voice became more and more physical, and his pupils began to dilate.
"May courage and wisdom guide your path. After Machilos finished speaking, his chest no longer heaved, and it was himself who finally judged him.
The sound of clash of armor rang out in the passage.
"It seems that the human army has arrived, and it is not wise to meet them in the current situation. Wentini was about to lead the group to retreat, but Miel hugged the unconscious Oshous and said, "You guys go first, we shouldn't have much problem staying, and Osho's condition is not suitable for violent movement." Oshous opened his eyes at this point, echoing Miel's words.
"Well, be careful yourself, and have a chance to fight side by side in the future. Wentini finished saying that, he quickly left with Zoffie and Churin. After the three of them were gone, Osius asked, "What are you going to do next?"
I saw that after Miel put down Osius, he came to the corpse of Macchilos with a long sword, and stabbed it at the wound on his chest, and even Osius on the side was completely stunned.
This scene happened to be seen by the officers who rushed to the scene, and immediately ordered his subordinates to surround Miyer. The soldiers made way for the officers who came forward to make way for them.
"Hello, Warrior. I am General Unorris Black of the Fourth Imperial Legion. The officer took off his helmet and said to Miel, "Could you please elaborate on what happened here?" The tone of refusal was more appropriate than an inquiry.
"Dear General Black, now that my companion is in urgent need of treatment, shall I tell the General later?" replied Miyle, neither humbly nor arrogantly. Blake whispered a few words to the adjutant beside him, and it wasn't long before two men dressed as priests walked towards Oshous.
"Now you can tell me. Blake's gaze fell on Miel again. "Yes, General. Miel recounted the incident, and the rest of the story did not deviate in the slightest, except for the withdrawal of Wentini as a separate squad due to injuries.
"Traveling travelers? You don't look like you're any ordinary person. Blake looked at the young man who exuded an aristocratic temperament. Miel had already prepared his words: "Our two brothers are on this trip to find their lost family. ”
"I don't know which nobleman's heir, forget it. Blake pondered, and continued, "Your courage is more commendable than the cowards out there, and your strength is not bad. So, are you going to join the army? That will make it easier for you to find your family, how?"
"General Black, is this true?" Miel replied with an excited tone, and then said, "Is it okay for our brothers to discuss this matter before making a decision?" At this time, the bodies of Macchilos and Huton had been taken away by them, and the adjutants were also directing the retreat.
"In that case, the army will be stationed outside the village of Houghton for another day, and will tell you the answer by noon to-morrow, and if your brother wishes to join the army, you can bring him with you. With that, Blake turned and left, leaving Miel and the others behind.
After waiting for a while, Osius, who had not spoken a word before, took the lead in asking: "So, now can you tell me why you did this?"
"For power!"
