On the ground, Darcy pierced Bu Mansha's body with a shot.
However, there was no physical feeling coming from the body, it was like being pierced into a ball of gas and letting it dissipate.
The moment the figure disappeared, two identical figures flew out from both sides, bypassed Darcy like phantoms, and then stabbed two pale wooden swords into his back, making a sound of piercing through flesh and blood.
The red lightning exploded, and the two figures disappeared immediately.
At this moment, a woman with butterfly wings gradually appeared in the air.
Compared with the previous dress of a peasant girl, the current Bumansha is peerless and gorgeous.
The chestnut-gold braid has been spread out, and the gold-like hair is floating slightly in the air. The emerald-colored skirt is like a superposition of beautiful and wide leaves, with pale golden veins in it. Behind her is a fairy
The butterfly wings are different and wide, with a black background and gradually changing colors from emerald to light red in the middle.
Natural Sequence 8·The Fairy Queen of Seven Butterflies
Since the Second Era, due to the deterioration of the living environment, the goblin clan associated with the World Tree has long since withered away, and there are no longer any existences above Sequence 8. Unexpectedly, this time there are humans who have advanced to the extraordinary profession of the goblin clan, and it is also the pinnacle of it.
Extraordinary job referrals. (The inheritance of extraordinary job referrals is generally only ranked in sequence 8. Each person in sequence 9 has a unique and unique job referral)
Looking at the woman who looked like a fairy queen in the sky, Darcy suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the other party could dodge his attack, and that the secret technique of Shi Yao was so powerful.
Although the job agents of the goblin family are slightly weaker in terms of pure power, their weirdness and changes are rarely matched by other job agents. Their abilities are like fairy tales and Shiyao, just like children's childhood fantasies, full of
Magical.
After finally knowing the true strength of his opponent, Darcy also slowly sank into consciousness. The spear in his hand gradually changed and became clearer. Complex lines began to appear on the body of the gun, outlining the strange and bright red colors.
's trajectory.
"Bang!"
Darcy stepped forward and disappeared from the ground in an instant, then shot straight into the butterfly-winged figure in the air.
The Bumansha in the air also disappeared, but this was not a high-speed movement, but a short-distance shuttle through space, like a flash.
She avoided the sharp and dangerous gun blade, spread her hands, and then, two emerald crystal-like long swords quietly condensed.
After holding the hilt of the sword, the butterfly wings behind her flapped, and then traced an arc, spinning around in the air. During its movement, every time the wings flapped, the same version of herself would be left behind.
Seven Bumanshas with butterfly wings on their backs, holding two emerald swords, attack Darcy in the blink of an eye. They are often in the air at one moment, and then flash in front of Darcy the next second, slashing with their swords, or crossing them.
Stabbing in, the attack was like emerald lightning flashing through the air, constantly overlapping, and the sound and sparks of the swords clashing were constant, dazzling and dizzying.
If it were just an ordinary Sequence 7, it would have been broken into pieces in this staggered attack and siege, but Darcy is worthy of his name as a genius. With the blessing of the holy object, he relied on his physical fitness and physical strength that are different from ordinary people.
The ability to react was enough to withstand it.
Although Bu Mansha's talent for cutting everything has few rivals, she was ultimately unable to cut off the sacred spear made of the fragments of power, which allowed Darcy to survive.
On the hill, the red electric light and the emerald crystal continued to collide and shatter. Time slowly passed and the sky gradually darkened.
At this time, wounds began to appear on Darcy's body, and his skin also revealed a deep dark red color, and traces of black blood began to seep out of it.
The side effects of the holy object are beginning to show. If the original load of this kind of power blessing is insufficient, it will cause harm to oneself. If you want to use this holy object without any impact, you probably need to be at the level of Sequence 9.
Darcy's ability to last so long is already beyond the record.
After another confrontation, Bu Mansha was suspended in the sky again, while the other figures also disappeared like mist.
"Go back, Darcy." She could see that if she continued to fight, Darcy would die here.
Huh...huh...huh...
Darcy held a spear in one hand and half-knelt on the ground. The muscles and blood vessels on his body were ferocious, and sweat like blood was flowing out at this moment.
"How. How. Possible.!" He slowly raised his head, looking at the figure in the sky with red eyes full of anger.
For everything he has today, he has put in so much hard work and sweat, and gone through life and death on the battlefield, to have everything he has today, but now he has to bow his head in front of this country woman.
Yes, Aimanke promoted himself in the past, but he also went through life and death for the empire and almost gave everything. Shouldn't he deserve this?
Why, why, a person who lives an idle life like this, has no ambition to make progress, and has no fighting spirit, can go ahead of himself?
Why, why, is it always so unfair? Why can some people do whatever they want, effortlessly, and get everything they want, while you have to sacrifice everything in order to rise and get ahead?
He gasped like a roar and stood up slowly, and the lines on the spear once again glowed with red lightning.
A group of knights at the bottom of the hill watched this scene in silence, and the contempt they had for Darcy in the past slowly dissipated. Almost all of them were of noble origin, and Darcy was originally just a commoner, and Darcy also betrayed the past.
Promote his love Manke.
Although they were in awe of the general's power and knew how powerful he was, in the past, there was always a trace of disdain in their hearts.
Yes, he may have shortcomings, but he is worthy of being a strong man with extraordinary will that makes people impressed and even shocked.
Looking at Darcy below who still refused to fall, Bu Mansha also closed her eyes slightly and then opened them.
"I see."
She respects Darcy's will and will tell him her thoughts through practical actions.
A seed emerged in Bumansha's hand, and then quickly sprouted, grew, and extended. Then a small bud emerged, and then grew larger and bloomed. A narrow white sword blade emerged from the center of its petals, just like a stamen.
She held the foil sword in her hand and swept it gently like a baton. Fluorescent pollen fell down, and the world began to change.
The grass, trees and other plants on the ground began to grow crazily and continued to expand outward.
The originally empty wilderness grassland now seems to be surrounded by a forest. The tall tree canopy blocks the sky and the sun. The sunlight becomes fine and dappled and shines into the world in the forest. Everything seems to be trapped in a distant and unfamiliar world.
Holding the spear, Darcy prepared to rush towards Bu Mansha in the air again, but the opponent waved the foil sword in his hand again.
Dots of flowers began to bloom and spread across the land, with various colors, some light white, some warm red, some bright yellow, some bluish, and some deep purple.
Grain paste
The styles of these flowers are also different, some are like lilies of the valley, some are like chrysanthemum petals, and some droop like wind chimes, embellishing the trees and grass.
When Darcy's attack was dodged by Bumansha, she fell again, holding her body up with her spear, panting and shaking.
Seeing that Darcy was still unwilling to struggle, Bu Mansha retracted her wings and floated down from the sky. The clothes that had been transformed also changed back to their previous appearance.
Standing in the shade of the trees with the setting sun shining in, Bu Mansha picked up her basket again, and then walked slowly to Darcy, who was about to fall.
She opened the cover of the basket in her hand, took out a piece of bread, put it into Darcy's mouth, which was about to scream, and blocked his mouth. Then Darcy, who was hungry and weak, took a bite.
"I know, you have put in a lot of effort." Seeing Darcy eating, Bumansha turned around and spoke softly when she finally calmed down.
"When I was in school, I heard everyone say that Darcy was a very hard-working senior. Niya also told me that she wanted to learn from Darcy and become a powerful person."
"Because of your existence, everyone believes that as long as you work hard enough, even if you are from a bad background, you can step by step surpass those classmates with noble family backgrounds."
"Everyone admires you because you have done what we have always wanted to do but couldn't."
"Water your talent with sweat to achieve the ultimate goal."
"I think that even I don't have the strong will of Senior Darcy to endure such boring exercise and give up many other things." Bu Mansha said slowly, her voice was not loud, but Some knights down the hillside can also hear it clearly.
"But, what is the standard for evaluating things." Bu Mansha turned around, and at this time Darcy finally calmed down a little, but the rise and fall of his chest from time to time showed that he was still recovering.
"If we use secular standards, then the senior is undoubtedly better than me. I'm just doing an ordinary job in the countryside."
"If we look at it from the perspective of a transcendent, I should only be better than my senior because of my talent advantage."
"But if you look at the breadth and freedom, ease and happiness of life, I think I can still be slightly ahead of the seniors."
"Because of my love, I did the work and things I liked, and made new discoveries in it, which inspired me to do more things and explore more possibilities."
"Many of them are meaningless things in the world, but they are different for me. They are so fresh and different."
“The goal in the secular world is single and unified, so it is destined to be narrow, just like 99% of people crowded into a narrow corner of 0.01% of the world, competing and tormenting each other, because they have been domesticated to only agree with these standards, and then I can't see anything else."
"Of course, these are not right or wrong, they are just different choices."
"However, Senior Darcy, what you hope for is destined to be obtained by only a few people, so why can't you accept the result of failure with peace of mind."
"Perhaps you are just a child and think that the world should be what you want it to be. Because I have put in my sweat, I must gain everything, even if others have sacrificed their lives for it, even if the laws of the world change, and the evolution of all situations does not change. Again."
"It's time to wake up, Senior Darcy."
After the words fell, Bu Mansha walked away slowly with the basket, gradually disappearing at the end of the road, and the direction leading to the village closed again, covered by dense trees and shrubs.
The forest dotted with seven-color flowers, lush and beautiful, spreads from the hills to both sides like a fence, dividing the world into two parts that are never connected.
Although it is close at hand, the world behind the hills is like a distant ideal land, which can never be touched, making people sigh and stop.
————————
The Third Age, 1706, the Year of the Ice Wind.
In May, the rebellion in the southern border of the Canghong Empire expanded. General Bazel led an army of 340,000 people to march south. In Silver Peak Province, the Misty Rain Territory fought a decisive battle with the rebels, which was later recorded as the "Battle of Silver Peak".
In this battle, the famous general Bazel was killed, the empire's legions collapsed in pursuit, and the royal family's prestige further declined.
In June, the newly organized coalition forces of the empire began to gather and assemble. This time the scale was far greater than the last time, and many nobles participated.
In July, the imperial coalition forces had not yet arrived at the front line, but bad news came from Titania, and there was another coup within the royal family.
The son of the former crown prince Ansroy, Eliot Cang Juselberg, killed the regent and puppet king Edron, and ascended the throne with the support of a group of nobles and military officers. This 16-year-old boy became the first in the history of the empire.
Two young emperors. (The first one was Kingsley, who ascended the throne at the age of 12 more than 700 years ago, and the twin brother and sister Jin Luosha. At that time, they were still in the era of the Green Kingdom.)
In August, Queen Lily fled to the North, and under the cover of loyal knights, she changed direction and headed to the South. During this period, she was overtaken by the Knights of the Rose several times, and each time she escaped from pursuit. Finally, the Knights of the Rose stopped in the East.
In front of an unknown village, an unknown peasant woman blocked the way.
During this period, the powerful Knights of the Rose defeated the woman alone, and General Darcy, who was holding the sacred object, could not win. In the end, he could only sigh and stop on the hill in front of the village.
After that, the new emperor recalled the Knights of the Rose, stating that as long as the queen vowed to leave the Western Continent with her children and never set foot on the empire's territory again, she would no longer be pursued for her crimes.
In September, the counter-rebellion coalition forces were stationed at the border for two months and finally disbanded due to internal differences. The eldest son of the gryphon, Jerrann, and the son of the raven, Elon, returned to their territories respectively.
At the end of October, an edict arrived in the south led by the emperor's envoy.
'Due to the despicable methods of the former false king, the most loyal Red Dragon Duke in the empire, a branch of the royal family, the Pascal family fell, countless people of the empire died in the civil war, and many loyal and brave nobles died in undue catastrophes.'
‘Therefore——’
"Pardon the Red Dragon Duke and the noble people of the rebellion in the Central and Southern Territories for all crimes, and re-canonize the Baskar family as the guardians of the Southern Territory, and establish the family's only blood descendant, Miss Charallotte Baskar, as the new Red Dragon Duke.
"
"After this order is announced, all imperial legions and soldiers stationed in the Southern Territory must be loyal to the new guardian of the Southern Territory, Duchess Charlanlot or her designee. In the next ten years, all taxes paid to the royal family in the Southern Territory will be exempted, and
Duke Charlanlot will lead the people of the Southern Territory to self-govern, and the royal family will no longer appoint any officials or nobles to interfere with the rule of the Southern Territory for twenty years."
"This order was unanimously passed by the Imperial Parliament. The Emperor promises everything in the edict and will implement it today. If anyone disobeys it, he will be regarded as a traitor to the empire, and will be wanted and tried by the empire along with the remnants of the puppet king."
This winter, after several years of turmoil, the empire finally ushered in precious peace. Perhaps the situation behind the scenes was already different, and everyone had different intentions, but after all, everyone needed time to ease the situation.
The new emperor needs to stabilize the situation and gradually control the empire. The Northern Territory needs support from other territories to survive the cold disaster. The Griffins in the Western Territory need to reconsider the situation. The Landsworth family in the Eastern Territory is just concerned about worldly affairs. The people in the Southern Territory are also eager to
Get free from the torture of war and gain precious respite and cultivation.
In this way, another year of winter festival celebrations slowly ushered in.
