Artoria, who was covered in blood, endured the pain, jumped forward, and caught Ren who was falling.
He has fallen into a coma.
Taking the initiative to step forward and bear the attack, Ren was much more seriously injured than she was, and was just a hair away from exploding to death.
At this moment, his body was a mess of blood and flesh, most of the bones in his body were broken, and some of his internal organs were shattered.
If it weren't for the tenacious vitality of high-level transcendent beings, if it weren't for Avalon holding his breath, he would have been completely cold.
Chi!
At this time, a vast mass of dazzling white light penetrated the sky and split the clouds, flying like a meteor from the sky above Merova City.
The speed of this pure white brilliance is getting faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, it has covered a distance of more than ten miles. The brilliance is getting brighter and brighter, so bright that it burns your eyes. Waves of powerful pressure pour down from the sky, vaguely still.
Inexplicable string music can be heard, and songs echo between heaven and earth.
Arturia was startled and looked up, seeing that a woman who looked like a fairy from the Moon Palace had fallen from the sky.
"Young man, what happened?"
Saint Lucy suddenly appeared, her voice was like the sound of nature.
Her silver hair was flying, she was wearing an embroidered white tight skirt, and her diamond earrings were sparkling. A pair of beautiful eyes as clear as the water of a flat lake stayed on Ren and the girl for a moment, and then glanced at the desolate and broken scene around them.
Wherever he looked, ripples appeared in the void, as if there were invisible strings playing.
Lucy is also holding a bow-shaped weapon with shining silver light. It is made entirely of unknown blue-white jade and is crystal clear, with seven translucent strings glowing with dots of colored light.
It's like a bow, but also like an alternative lyre.
The coercion on her body is far more powerful than the last time she declared war in Roman Square, and her aura is more fierce and intimidating. This is her fighting posture.
'This momentum is at least twice as strong as the last time I felt it...'
Artoria was slightly shocked, but she was still more worried about Ren's safety and asked hurriedly:
"Senior Lucy, can you help me check on his condition?"
Lucy looked at the listless King Da Mao and Ren, who was almost dying. She frowned. She took out a bottle of potion and threw it to King Da Mao:
"These are the tears of the goddess, let him drink them."
She didn't know this girl, but Ren still knew her.
After all, she is an outstanding young and strong person in the Kingdom of Faloran. She has become famous recently. If she can help, she will not die without saving him.
Arturia took the bottle and unscrewed it. Suddenly, a rich and incomparable vitality overflowed, which was more than ten times stronger than the "Fountain of Resurrection". After just one sniff, she felt that the pain in her body was relieved.
She hurriedly gave Ren the potion. After drinking the potion, his body emitted a hazy white light, and the bloody wounds healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The effect was very good, and his vital signs were finally maintained, no longer like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any time.
"Thank you." King Daimao breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Lucy.
"Tears of the Goddess" is a top-notch potion, a healing potion for saints. Just this small bottle costs about 5,000 gold coins. The key is that they don't have it yet.
Under normal circumstances, [Natural Source], Ordinary Holy Water, [Wind Potion], [Blessing Potion]... these intermediate potions can be sold on the black market for 200 to 500 gold coins per bottle (100 ml).
As for high-grade holy water, [Praise of Nature], [Awakening Potion]...these high-grade magic potions cost about 500 to 1,000 gold coins per bottle (100 ml).
Arturia gave Ren a bottle of "Fountain of Resurrection" before, but the effect was very weak, and her Holy Light Healing Technique also didn't work.
"You're welcome, please tell me what happened just now."
Lucy felt the strong dark force remaining in the air, and her face was very solemn.
This kind of powerful dark force, which is as unpredictable as the abyss of hell and can almost collapse the void, is extremely high in nature and is far beyond the comparison of the Dark Archduke of the Demon.
"It's like this. On the way back to the city, the vampire Princess Ariel attacked..."
After thinking briefly, King Daimao began to organize his words.
He didn't talk about his own affairs, only saying that Ren was here to take her home. Ariel took the opportunity to attack him, and the two fought... and finally accidentally triggered the projection of the Nightmare Lord.
"projection?"
Lucy breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Even the projection of the Dark Lord usually only exists for a short period of time and its power is relatively limited, so it will not affect the overall situation.
Currently, no dark monarch has awakened on the continent. As long as one of that kind of existence wakes up, it will be a huge event.
"However, I am a little surprised that you can survive."
Lucy put away the weapon in her hand - "Yueqin". She glanced at the unconscious Ren and was quite surprised.
"I don't know about this either..." King Da Mao looked a little confused.
She didn't know what happened just now, and why the projection of the nightmare monarch finally retreated.
"Huh?"
Green jade fingers gently moved through the hair, Lucy seemed to sense something, and a trace of surprise flashed in her clear autumn eyes.
She knelt down and took out the strange sword-shaped pendant from the collar of Ren's clothes:
"I see, it belongs to the Sky Sword Master. However, this seems to be the personal pendant of that girl Kesha..."
This sword-shaped pendant is made of neither gold nor stone. It is as clear as crystal and glows with a faint light.
'Is this the thing that scared away the projection of the dark lord?'
King Daimao was also very curious and looked at it intently.
I saw that the blade of the sword was covered with numerous textures of different shades in an orderly manner, with overlapping layers. The whole body seemed to be composed of countless chaotic and changing geometric shapes, making people feel dizzy after looking at it for a long time.
Its blade looked smooth, but it was actually covered with countless tiny serrations. Even with her keen eyesight, she couldn't see exactly how many serrations there were.
It seems that there are small sawtooths on top of each sawtooth, and even smaller sawtooths on top of the small sawtooth... The endless repetition is like the strange fractional dimension curve on the edge of a snowflake.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What is this? Is it really matter?"
Artoria looked away with a slightly dizzy gaze, a look of surprise on her face.
Lucy said calmly: "This is a sword energy struck by the Sword Master of the Sky."
"Sword Qi? How is this possible?"
"This is 'turning gas into form', that is, 'energy materialization', evolving the illusory sword power into a physical entity, using the power of rules to bind space, matter, energy... to form a world of swords, which is this pendant
The essence of it.”
Lucy's face was filled with a bit of admiration for such ghostly and magical swordsmanship.
The span of the fifth-level holy realm is huge. The most peak saint can fight against the Dark Lord. The weak one is only equal to the Dark Duke. The Sky Sword Master is far stronger than her.
At this time, the strange sword-shaped pendant trembled slightly, as if it was a warning.
Lucy immediately let go of her hand, and it was like a crystal pendant scratching into Ren's chest.
Seeing the confused look on Dai Mao Wang's face, she smiled and explained:
"Girl, don't be surprised. The sword energy is spiritual. It has a certain sense of discrimination and even a temper. You were unable to move just now. It should have taken the initiative to warn the projection of the Nightmare Lord.
Of course, this sword energy will not attack humans below the level of the Holy Realm, nor will it attack demons below the Dark Prince level..."
In short, don't kill the weak chicken.
If Ren and King Da Mao were attacked by a Dark Duke this time, even if they were beaten to death, this "eyes above the top" sword energy would not explode.
'Is the Sky Sword Master so strong?'
Arturia was speechless. She looked at the female saint in front of her who was wearing a pure white silk dress with light roses embroidered on it. She was as charming as an elf and asked:
"Senior Lucy, are all the demon-born Dark Lords so strong? Just a ray of projection can make the human temple unable to resist?"
The desperate crushing just now made the girl very unwilling.
If Renn hadn't rushed up desperately and happened to be carrying the Juggernaut's belongings, she would have been dead.
"No, no, it's not that amazing."
Lucy smiled, stretched out a finger, and drew a circle in the void. The circle was quickly filled with black.
She drew a small circle inside the black circle, the area being one-fifth of the black circle.
The black inside the small circle faded and turned into white.
"The Dark Lord can forbid and control space. The range is very large. A little strength is enough to leverage a large space.
If the black circle represents him and the white circle represents me, it is 5 to 1. Although my power is much worse than that of the Dark Lord, the true saint's domain is complete, self-consistent, and cyclical, and the 1 that belongs to me will not be taken away.
Walk."
The words paused, and the white circle disappeared.
Then, Lucy drew a smaller white circle inside the black circle. The area of the white circle was about one-tenth of the black circle.
However, this time the white circle is drawn with dotted lines. The black in the black circle penetrates into the white circle from the gaps. Gradually, only an insignificant white dot remains in the black circle.
Looking at the thoughtful girl, Lucy explained:
"If the power of Ren's and Monarch's projections are 1:10, although the gap is quite large, it does not mean that they cannot fight back and resist.
However, the prototype of the human temple is just like a sieve to the Dark Lord... You cannot compete with him for control of space, even if it is just the projection of the Lord."
Lucy pointed to the tiny white dot within the black circle and added:
"Originally it was 1:10, but now that the realm is enabled, your realm prototype is invalid, so it becomes 0.0000...001:10.
From a difference of ten times, to a difference of a hundred thousand times, a million times... How can you resist such a huge gap?
With only your own flesh and blood, how can you resist the oppression and squeezing of dozens of kilometers of space? The monarch's projection can easily crush you to death with just a slight push of the space."
That's it, Arturia suddenly realized.
No wonder they couldn't even resist at that time. The monarch's projection was just bullying them because the rules of their domain were incomplete and they couldn't control the space.
If it were Lucy who had to deal with it, she would definitely not be so embarrassed.
"Then the Dark Duke, can he control space like this?"
The girl continued to ask. There were not many opportunities to ask the saint like this.
"No, no, not everyone is so strong. A saint with average strength like me cannot crush a holy church even if he expands his domain.
In fact, you two are just too unlucky. Many human temples may never meet the Dark Lord in their lifetime... If you meet the Dark Lord, you can fight him. If you can't fight, you can run away."
Lucy explained in a soft voice, and put away her weapon - the "Yueqin" flowing with silver light.
Whoosh~
Not long after, people in black clothes wearing black windbreakers and exuding a faint smell of blood also arrived.
These are the Punisher troops from the 7th game. They all have cold looks and evil spirits on their faces. They are holding Force firearms. As soon as they arrive, they begin to clean the battlefield.
Compared to the Deacons, who are mainly responsible for handling cases caused by human supernatural beings, the Punishers almost exclusively kill demons.
The leader is none other than the Chief Superintendent of the 7th Bureau, Parr, who has a face as cold as a sculpture.
"Hello, Miss Lucy."
First, he nodded to Lucy and after understanding the general situation, this man with a frightening aura, known as the "Dark Knight", looked at King Da Mao and said with a solemn expression:
"Miss Kate, I hope you can keep it a secret regarding the battle between Master Ackerman and the Blood Duchess Ariel, as well as the arrival of the Nightmare Lord's projection."
Regarding the Dark Lord, even if it is just a sudden projection, it will cause huge panic if spread.
"I see."
Holding Ren with both hands, the stupid king nodded.
She looked at the stiff-faced Parr with her green eyes. The aura of dark force that was as oppressive and deep as the vortex of the abyss on him made her feel a little uncomfortable, and the holy power in her body began to stir faintly.
This Chief Superintendent belongs to the [Retribution Knight] profession on the dark side, and the dark holy power cultivated by the [Paladin] profession is almost completely opposite to the glorious holy power cultivated by the [Paladin] profession.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It is at least the fourth level peak, a 19th level disciplinary knight, maybe even 20th level... This is the girl's judgment.
After talking to Lucy and Artoria for a few words, Superintendent Pal ordered dozens of punishers to cordon off the area, and found a section of Ariel's arm in the rubble...
………
"Senior Lucy, why hasn't he woke up yet?"
Holding the still unconscious Ren in both hands, Arturia had a worried face as she walked towards the city.
The clouds have gradually dissipated, and while walking on the path beside the fields, the bright white moonlight falls on Saint Lucy's long silver hair, creating a dreamlike luster.
The beautiful eyes of this unworldly and unrivaled female saint looked at Ren being held by Arturia, especially when she observed the acupoints in his body that were shining and vibrating like a galaxy, she felt slightly absent-minded.
Haha, haha, it’s the Demon-Slaying Art, and it’s a stinky man who is not afraid of death and specializes in the Demon-Slaying Art, and he can still cause trouble...
"What a tenacious vitality like Xiaoqiang. After such a severe injury that almost shattered his body, he managed to escape the danger of his life after drinking a bottle of Tears of the Goddess.
It should be said that he is indeed a genius. As expected, he is thick-skinned and durable, and his physical strength is so strong that he would have exploded and died a long time ago."
Lucy didn't know what she thought of, and a slightly sarcastic smile appeared on her beautiful and charming face.
King Da Mao could feel that she was not mocking Ren:
"Aunt Lucy, then why doesn't he show any signs of waking up?"
Ren's performance was like a vegetative state, which made her a little anxious.
Saints naturally have some special powers. The next second, Lucy's pupils turned pure silver-white, which made her look almost pupil-less, which was quite magical.
Suddenly, the world in front of him suddenly lit up.
The boundaries of all things were broken, and the hidden truth was exposed. In front of her, Kate's body suddenly burned with a golden flame, surging, and the tongue of fire even licked half a meter away from her body.
This is the sign of the glorious holy power being achieved.
It proves that this girl who is only the third level in the eyes of the world is actually at least a powerful paladin of the fourth level.
The girl hid her strength, but Lucy didn't say much.
Her main target is not her, but Ren, who she is holding.
In the field of vision, the broken and cracked flesh, bones, internal organs, etc. are constantly repairing themselves at a very fast speed.
"Well, he seems to have a strong ability to heal himself. It's exaggerated. However, physical recovery alone is not enough."
However, Lucy didn't seem to see the scabbard Avalon, so she was a little surprised.
She also observed the densely packed dark lines wrapped around Ren's pure sky-blue icy soul, which were regular injuries, and the dark red nightmare power, which turned into poisonous snakes and was constantly eroding.
Devouring his spirit and will, causing his consciousness to sink.
Although the focus of the Dark Lord's attacks may vary, each of their hits generally includes four types of attacks: physical destruction, energy impact, mental damage, and rule erosion.
The person who is under attack may receive a boxed meal on the spot if he or she is lacking in any aspect or holding him back.
With the title Nightmare Lord, you don't need to guess. Of course, what he is best at is attacks on the soul and spiritual level.
Coincidentally, after Avalon was weakened, it was a bit weak against healing rules and soul and spirit damage...
"Forget it, if I don't save him, Carl and Wade will probably scold me again... Let's go to my house, Kate, and I'll help him treat him in the next few days."
Looking at the worried girl next to her, Lucy looked away, the silver light in her eyes disappeared, and she shook her head slightly.
"Ah, thank you, Lucy-senpai."
Da Mao Wang's face showed a look of surprise and he said gratefully.
Even Avalon seemed to have little effect. She really didn't know how to revive Ren. She couldn't just let him lie down in a vegetative state.
"You're welcome." Lucy curled up a strand of black hair with her fingers, and Lucy smiled. Every frown and every smile was extremely moving.
To be honest, she quite liked the girl in front of her.
Her soft blond hair is neatly coiled on her head, and she has a pair of emerald eyes. Her pure soul and refreshing temperament like a stream make her look dignified, clear, and heroic.
The appearance and temperament of a girl can easily make people fall in love with her.
It would be better if she didn't hang out with Rainn Ackerman...
It's not that Lucy dislikes Renn. She and Renn have not had any interactions before, so naturally there is no grudge.
It's just that he looks a bit like a certain talented and powerful king back then...no, a disgusting scumbag, so I feel unhappy about it. Anyway, I feel unhappy about it.
Two women chatted as they walked across the breezy fields.
The chirping of insects in the suburbs gradually faded away, and the night sky was filled with stars.
At nine o'clock in the evening, King Da Mao returned to the city of Merova after three weeks of absence with the vegetative Renn and Saint Lucy in his arms.
