Joshua follows Byron and Geraint to the floating city. Eliade injects his goggles magic into Ruona's magic crystal. As long as they can reach Parsa's secret room, they can use the magic crystal to restore it.
Some clips of Parsa using dark magic in the Chamber of Secrets.
Since the Aika family, Roger and Heig's coalition forces are about to encircle the floating city, Parsa ordered the White Dragon and Red Dragon knights to stick to one direction each to prevent the two groups from joining forces.
At. Andpal
Sa's own Black Dragon Knights and the Golden Dragon Knights rebels led by Bolton are holding their positions in the east to prevent the two armies from advancing eastward. Therefore, it is very difficult for Byron and the others to sneak back into the floating city. They must first pass through the main battlefield.
Then face the layer
The floating city under strict martial law finally sneaked into the city. Of course, the only good news is that Parsa often leaves the floating city to direct the war on the front line. Although the guards outside the floating city are very tight, the number of troops in the palace hall will not be deployed too much.
.And the secret passage leads directly to the Holy Light Hall inside the palace. Although Byron and the others had alerted Parsa last time when they investigated the body of Holy King Roy, Parsa spent a long time unable to find them and sneak into it.
The approach to the royal palace.
Byron and Geraint returned to the floating city with Joshua. This time Joshua did not follow them life and death, but Geraint suggested that once Parsa's crime was revealed, the floating city should be rid of the Black Dragon Knight.
All the defenders outside the regiment will definitely defect, so there is no need to worry about Joshua's safety. Even so.
If the situation changes, they can choose to retreat to the Holy Light Palace and cooperate with the defecting royal army to resist. The most critical point is that they control the source of the Holy Light. Even if Parsa sends troops back to rescue them for a while, they will not be able to do anything to them.
After all, Joshua is still nominally the highest symbol of the Kingdom of Reims.
The three people re-disguised themselves with Ruona's transformation magic potion, packed some necessities, and set off from the Star City. They wanted to use the twilight to escape the enemy's investigation and cross the battlefield. There were broken battles everywhere along the way.
The tracks and hoof tracks of the vehicles and the army passed by. Some tattered military flags were stuck diagonally on the soil, slowly fluttering in the breeze. However, due to the night, it was impossible to see clearly which side's military flag they belonged to.
In order to avoid sentries, the three of them tried to avoid flat roads and choose rugged paths. Sometimes the enemy camp was not far away from them, and the campfires were dotted, which was particularly eye-catching in the night. Byron and Geraint
After all, they have been on the battlefield for a long time, and this kind of operation across the front has been practiced many times. Even if it is not normal
Even in such a huge war, they were able to avoid enemy patrols well. Soon, they arrived at the forest not far from the floating city. The floating city was a suspended castle with only a few long and winding slopes below.
The road leads to the city gate. Since the war has begun, the Holy Light Barrier has been opened.
"Uncle Geraint, we are coming from the west this time, and the roads are very different from those from the north!" Joshua whispered in the woods.
"Well, after passing through this forest, you are completely away from the camp sentry, but you have to be careful of the floating city's defenders coming out to watch the night." Geraint responded, "But they usually only go back and forth on the slope, after all, floating city
The city is protected by a holy light barrier."
"But it's not good to leave the woods now. The gate of the floating city must be closed at night and no one will be allowed in." Joshua said, "We have to stay until daytime..."
"Let's rest in this forest tonight." Byron said, "There is a problem. This forest used to belong to the royal garden. My brother and I often came here to hunt. There are many animals in the forest.
I know if I can have a peaceful sleep."
"Since this is a forest for hunting, the most powerful beast is the bear, right? Lions are usually found in the savannah southeast of Isaro, and tigers are found in the woods between the emerald forest and the permafrost tundra. We don't have to worry.
"Geraint didn't care.
"His Majesty the King is with us, so everyone must be careful. Don't let any accidents happen because of such seemingly trivial problems." Byron was as cautious as ever.
"Then let me patrol the surrounding area first to see if there is any danger. If there is no problem, I will choose to sleep here for the night!" Geraint said as he drew out his sword and knocked on the branches blocking the road ahead, vigilantly.
Observe the movement around you.
Not long after Geraint left, rustling sounds suddenly came from the woods. Byron suddenly became alert: "It seems that there is something unclean in the woods." He quickly drew his sword to block Joshua.
Behind you.
"Hey, isn't it just a big wild bear? I can handle it enough." Joshua said with a smile. He obviously thought that for an enemy of this level, everyone did not need to overprotect him.
But Joshua's estimate was obviously a bit wrong. The noise in the forest was very strange. It was a bit like the sound of a poisonous snake sticking out its tongue and a bit like the sound made when the remains of dark magic were emitted from the body of the Holy King, and this sound was approaching them.
Coupled with the darkness in the forest at night, Byron could only rely on his ears to determine the enemy's location.
"Why do I feel that the atmosphere in the forest is very depressing and terrifying?" Joshua began to sweat on his forehead. "I wonder if Uncle Geraint is in danger."
"Your Majesty the King, be careful to protect yourself." Suddenly, Byron raised his sword and the golden halo of light spread out from around him again. He seemed to feel that the enemy was approaching.
"Right here, His Majesty the King, please hide behind me." Byron waved to his right side without looking back, and suddenly a clear burst of sound came. Due to the effect of the Dou Qi aperture, Byron and Yue
Shua's surroundings were instantly lit up, and a terrifying figure instantly came into their sight. This was a monster that looked like a lion and was all black, but it didn't look like an entity, but was made up of black light and shadow.
appearance.
"Why does this monster look so familiar?" Joshua felt that this lion-shaped monster looked very familiar.
"Isn't this the flaming lion that I met on the second floor?" Joshua quickly remembered his previous experience. However, this monster only had the same shape as the flaming lion, with only a pair of hollow eyes on its face and no lion's blood basin.
The big mouth was completely shrouded in darkness. The lion's mane was like a black flame burning silently in the night.
"Although I don't know what kind of monster this is, I feel that this black thing contains huge evil power." Byron stood ready.
The black monster resembled a lion, but when it opened its mouth it could only make a hissing sound, and it was unclear whether it could really see the opponent with its empty eyes. However, this did not prevent it from attacking Byron and the others.
"Hiss", the black creature rushed towards the two of them quickly. It shook its head, and its black "mane" suddenly turned into black threads and entangled itself continuously towards Byron and Joshua.
Come over, like flames rising upwards, and like the tentacles of an octopus.
"What is this?" Byron raised his sword and quickly cut off these "tentacles". However, the broken tentacles could still jump out from the "mane" on the monster's head, which was very disturbing. Byron inspired
The fighting spirit in the body suddenly shone with golden light throughout the forest, and the long sword wrapped in golden fighting spirit quickly swung to cut off all the "tentacles". But soon a new round of attacks came at them in a steady stream.
"Damn it, I must get my holy wall back this time when I return to the floating city. Other swords are too awkward to use." Byron muttered.
"Lord Byron, let me help you!" Joshua also imitated Byron and inspired the fighting spirit in his body and rushed out with his sword. However, their repeated strikes were in vain under the lion's mane, and the tentacles were like
The black flames continued endlessly.
"We must find a way to eliminate its body. Blind defense is useless." Byron shouted, "But this monster seems to have no entity. I don't know if the slashing will be effective."
As soon as he finished speaking, Byron rolled over on the ground and quickly reached the black creature. He stood up, held the sword with both hands, aimed at the monster's head, and slashed hard, and a golden sword light flew forward.
And Chu cut the monster in half. But just as Byron had worried, what happened still happened. The monster that was cut in half lengthwise quickly gathered together. The black flames were mixed with the dark atmosphere, which made Byron feel unprecedented.
