Viscount Eris outside the passage suddenly felt a very strong spiritual fluctuation. If the passage had just been like a deep well with no bottom, now it seemed to have suddenly turned into boiling magma. As an experienced star,
Seeing the official, of course he knew that the confrontation between powerful high-ranking psychics had already begun.
Of course, one can know this kind of thing without using psychic powers. Ordinary imperial soldiers near the entrance of the passage have clearly felt that the temperature has climbed directly to four or five degrees, and they can even smell it through the air filter of their helmets.
A little bit of sulfur smell.
Several Razakai artificial soldiers were trembling with fear, their hands and feet were deformed. It took more than three times the time to set up a monitor and a reconnaissance drone terminal, and then they ran back rolling and crawling, as if
It looks like there is a natural enemy behind you.
However, as an experienced Star Viewer, he did not need those surveillance cameras to know that in the passage, Count Baorre was facing no other opponents except Natalia Elenko.
possibility.
She is a young psyker. Yes, based on the average age of a saint, she is extremely young. It is said that she crossed the six-month limit that shackles most psykers at the age of twenty-four.
ring threshold.
Of course, this was ten years ago. As for her current state, it is unclear to what extent she has reached. However, the Galactic Empire knows that that crazy earth woman has also received the most
Strict training and occult education, but he is indeed a genius who emerges from the battlefield.
She used blood and fire to hone her skills and improve her realm. Compared with this "Red Shura" war madman, the Astral Knights can be regarded as harmless academics.
Although Count Baorre is also an experienced, courageous and resourceful hero in hundreds of battles, facing the "Red Shura" who was born specifically for the battlefield, he still has an uncertain future.
You know, when the Astral Knights internally evaluated potential strong enemies, they unanimously believed that the knight captains and "quasi" knight captains who were also in the realm of saints could still fight when they encountered the other six of the seven sons of Reiken.
A noble, elegant, and sacred battle of honor for extraordinary beings.
But if you meet Natalia Elenko, it will be a completely different painting style dripping with blood.
In this case, it is not a shameful thing even to temporarily avoid the edge and wait for backup. If an astral knight does not even understand this truth, he is either a reckless man who cannot be trained, or he is trained in the Royal Knight Academy and
I must have fallen asleep directly during the camp course.
...Well, will Count Baorre be his opponent? The opponent is a saint, and the count is also a saint, and it is said that he will break through the seventh ring soon. He should still have a certain advantage in terms of absolute strength, right?
Viscount Eris made the above judgment, but he was still a little worried. For a moment, he did move to help. But at this time, fierce flames suddenly appeared in the passage, as if a terrifying
It looks like a fire scene.
The Viscount sighed and took a step back. As an experienced Hoshimi officer, he also knew that his combat level was actually not satisfactory. So, after thinking for five seconds, he decided to wait.
wait.
At this time, Colonel Coleman had already approached him and lowered his voice: "Sir, what do we need to do now?"
What can be done? After the three Dukes entered the virtual realm, Count Baorei has become the top master of the Astral Knights in this fortress? Even so, Viscount Eris nodded:
"There is really something that needs to be done. Stay away and let me do the surgery."
As he spoke, he took out a compass-shaped object from his arms, then stretched out three fingers to make a very awkward-looking handprint.
Colonel Coleman always felt that every time he saw these psychics taking action, he felt that the universe was taken to another style. Just the Astral Knights and Inquisitors, the magicians of the Star View Pavilion gave people
The feeling is particularly obvious.
However, as an experienced and outstanding imperial officer who had worked with psykers many times, he still took a few steps back, trying not to pay attention to the other party's movements. At the same time, he ordered the engineers to be prepared for fire prevention and extinguishing, and let the grenades
The soldiers went to install high-temperature-proof pendants on the mechas.
How could these heroic Panzergrenadiers not know what their superiors meant? They were all like widowers, and they no longer seemed to have the slightest bit of martial virtue.
However, only a minute later, the grenadiers didn't even have time to wait for the racks. As the temperature flowing out of the passage became higher and higher, the occasional flames had already appeared intermittently, making people feel heart-stopping.
It was blazing white, and a burly figure with fire on his body rushed out directly.
"So fast?" The Viscount was shocked: "I haven't even had time to do it."
But the burning man made the voice of Count Baoré: "Quick, quick, quick! It's so hot! It's so hot! Put out the fire quickly!"
The engineers looked at each other, but under the gaze of Colonel Coleman, they hurried forward with the fire extinguisher. Then, the dignified Count Baorre, the head of a sword-wielding family with a history of more than 700 years, was simply
Completely covered with water and dry ice.
Viscount Eris's eyesight was naturally much sharper than that of ordinary people. He could tell at a glance that, not to mention the other party's injuries, his clothes really couldn't be saved.
Fortunately, when the respectable Earl came out of the dry ice and pure water, he already had a piece of spiritual armor on his body. To put it bluntly, he used spiritual energy to create a time-effective armor for himself. From the appearance,
, the armor seems to be made of glazed crystal. Apart from being too dazzling and smelling like a third-rate web game, its defense is still very strong, and its flesh will definitely not be exposed.
Viscount Eris breathed a sigh of relief. Since he could use his spiritual power to cover himself up, it only meant that the injury was not serious.
If you take a closer look, Count Baoré is standing upright and breathing calmly. Except for the fact that his face has been burnt several shades of black, he really doesn't look like he has suffered a big loss.
"How about it? Is it Red Shura from the Spirit Research Association?"
"That's right, it's Natalia Elenko. My roommate at the Knight Academy had a duel with her and left a video of the fight."
"Your roommate?" the Viscount asked curiously. Before this war, the peace between the Empire and the Blue Star Community had lasted for half a century. Even if there were minor frictions, they would only be at the level of a border fire. But if it is the Star Boundary
The nature of the war between the knights and the core disciples of the Spirit Research Society is completely different.
However, such a thing should have never happened.
"He later took over the court of justice and became the execution judge."
Oh, it’s a dry matter! That’s understandable.
"What a pity. If he hadn't been beaten to death by Elinko, how could the position of chief investigative judge go to that Kuolan?" Count Baoré sighed, wiped his face with lingering fear, and found that
His masculine beard was also burned off, and he suddenly showed an inexplicable look of grief.
Count Baorei said: "Red Shura is indeed well-deserved. If we fight for a few more minutes, I will definitely die."
"But, didn't you get out of the battle line safely?" Viscount Eris said.
"Hahaha, yes, if I continue to fight, I will definitely die, but it should also drain her physical strength and even vitality. I am very confident in my own physical strength and innate ability."
Xing Jianguan was thoughtful.
"Yes, so he should be like me, he should be... just one step away from the next star ring." The count said. Of course he couldn't be sure, he was just making a judgment based on common sense.
You must know that when you enter the Saint Stage of the Sixth Ring, every step forward requires even more effort and effort than the previous steps combined. How many people who were amazingly talented in their youth have been stuck in this state their entire lives.
superior.
More importantly, if the other party has really reached the seventh ring, he may be dead.
"However, even if I use up this life to exhaust Chi Shura's physical strength, the remaining young people may find it difficult to keep her. My life is beautiful, and I can die generously, but I cannot die worthless.
"Count Baorei pondered for a moment, but then calculated: "However, similarly, if any one of the seven Lingyan sons is present, I will not be able to escape. So, Hoshimiguan, Sonny Grant and Ka
Lai Jin, where is he?"
"I can't feel their presence at the moment." Officer Hoshimi shrugged.
"How is the Grand Commander of the Void Realm doing now?"
"It's still a stalemate. The balance and momentum of the battle are no longer understandable to us mediocre people."
"So, there is a high possibility that those two people are in the virtual realm, right? Indeed, Sonny Grant is the leading alchemist among the people on earth, and Kale King is a master of techniques with excellent skills. There is no need to face
If you fight against the group leader and the others, you can give Lan Jiufeng assistance... Ha, you are truly worthy of being Master Lan! With two saints, you can fight against three demigods? You are worthy of being the first person under the Nine Rings." Ba.
Count Aure was amazed.
Officer Hoshimi felt that this analysis was the most logical: "Indeed, although Red Shura is unparalleled in bravery, like her mentor, they are both 'Shuras' who are good at frontal combat. The two of them may not be able to form a cooperation. It is better to stay together.
Come down and deal with us."
The count nodded and said: "Go tell Commander Minontai. It is no longer possible to capture the Unity Fortress in a short time. Fortunately, we never thought of pinning all our hopes on a surprise attack, right?
"
"I understand. The only one injured in the end was Commander Minontai, who planned this surprise attack. Fortunately, this fortress was originally captured by Yang Xiyi, so it is not a shame to lose."
On the other side, the eldest sister Natalia Elenko, who had just beaten a knight commander, sucked all the blazing flames and high temperatures in the passage into her mouth like a gourd baby, and she had just beaten Brother Bao.
.
At this time, the community defenders looked at her as if she was on a pilgrimage.
This is the beginning of a pilgrimage. If you want to see your mentor in the future, wouldn’t it mean that you have to worship the Buddha?
Natalia shrugged, leaving the defense area to the ordinary defenders again, and then left the passage in a swagger, and soon arrived at the headquarters.
She saw the big screen in the center of the headquarters at a glance, but it was the holographic structural diagram of the Unity Fortress. Within the structural diagram, the black arrow representing the empire had stopped moving forward and began to retreat. The red arrow representing the community side moved forward again.
In just a few steps, I regained many of the cabins I had just given up on.
Even people like Elinko who have no military education know that the situation is very good. It is not a small good, it is really a good thing.
She immediately saw Major General Yang Xiyi and his adjutant, Lieutenant Colonel Michel Kent, who were holding a large cup of black tea under the screen.
"The Imperial Army has been out of the line of fire with our army. So far, except for the cabin we decided to abandon from the beginning, the Empire has not saved anything." Kent said.
"Where are the battle losses?" Yang Xiyi added a little brandy to the black tea.
"The battle loss ratio is about 2 to 1...the empire has the upper hand. However, our side is mainly dragged down by the 'allies' of the Tolon and Minlan people. To be honest, if we had not replaced the new Yumen in advance,
The skeletons of laborers will be defeated by the empire if they even meet."
Yang Xiyi heard a little bit of dissatisfaction in Kent's words: "You can't blame them. This is a matter between us and the empire. In the final analysis, it is the evil done by humans. When they cannot receive orders from their own country, they are willing to obey us.
Dispatch already pays great attention to the friendship of allies."
"Indeed, at least he didn't run away. At least he fired three rounds of gunfire and surrendered when the imperial grenadiers forced him to prepare for hand-to-hand combat. Compared with the armies of most countries, it is already very good." Michiel Kent said sincerely.
commented.
Yang Xiyi held up the black tea cup: "Yes, we have already fired three rounds. What else can we expect?"
He was just about to take a few sips when he saw Natalia Erinko walking towards him with steps that she didn't recognize.
"Your guess is indeed correct. The imperial army really came directly from the front passage! I never expected that the imperial people are really so straightforward!"
"It's not that you are straight, but since you have chosen a sneak attack, you will definitely use direct means. This is probably determined by human nature." Yang Xiyi said with a smile: "Then, master, are you still enjoying yourself?"
"I have never enjoyed fighting on the battlefield. Please don't call me like a murderer. I just grow the fastest during life and death, which is my way of practice. Is this still my fault?
Is it okay?" She asked angrily.
"However, if my two senior brothers were still present at that time, they might be able to keep that astral knight." Natalia said with a hand.
Yang Xiyi smiled and said, "I thought you were more interested in fighting alone."
"This is a battlefield, not a competition. Do you think that the Spiritual Research Institute is all rotten Confucianism? General Yang, please understand, our Spiritual Research Institute is a Taoist school. The so-called Tao is Taoist, but it is not Taoist. The so-called best is like water, so what we do is
Very flexible moral bottom line!”
Is this how "Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao" and "the best is like water" are explained this way? Mihir Kent suddenly showed a shocked look.
"Okay, Master, I can only say that there will be this opportunity. But not now. With all of you here, I even have the confidence to completely drive out the imperial army from this fortress. But we need to consider it from a longer-term direction.
, the wisdom of Master Grant and Master Jin needs to be used in other places." Yang Xiyi said while nodding to Kent.
The latter used the terminal to open a small screen, and a large and mighty ship silhouette was immediately reflected on it. At first glance, there were hundreds of ships, and at least one third of them were mighty and domineering capital ships.
Even a "commoner" like Sister Elinco can recognize the strong imperial style on those battleships at a glance.
"This is the Iris Cross Galaxy, an image from 96 hours ago. If nothing else happens, these imperial fleets should arrive at Unity within a week." Mihir explained.
"This is actually good news." Yang Xiyi said with a smile: "The good thing is that at least they are coming towards the Unity Fortress, not the direction of New Yumen."
