Episode 37 Destruction and Peace (End) Chapter 3 Monsters
Suddenly, a shrill scream came out of the mouth of the great mage Cecilia, and she tore off all the necklaces hanging around her neck as if she had gone crazy.
As a crisp and melodious jingle sounded, the hillside that originally seemed sunny and warm was suddenly covered with tiny bits of ice crystals.
Full of rage, the great mage Cecelia recited the spell at an unimaginable speed, while Drex was making gestures equally quickly. This is probably the closest magic ever cast by magicians.
Magic, this should originally look very strange, but at this moment, Cecelia, who is like an angry goddess of ice and snow, and Drex, who seems to be the blood demon god, can definitely make anyone who sees this scene feel inexplicable.
fear.
This is as if the scene of the war between gods and demons has once again come to the world. No one will doubt that these two super magicians who no longer look like humans are about to cast a terrifying forbidden spell that will shake the earth and shake the universe.
A loud "boom" exploded between the two super magicians. The center of the explosion was obviously closer to Drex, but this small distance made no difference at all to the two sides.
Both Cecelia and Drex were blown away, and the entire hill was blown away at the same time. This explosion was definitely not comparable to the explosive bomb just now. The two super magicians
The force collides with each other, causing damage far beyond what ordinary people can estimate.
This time Drechs looked extremely embarrassed. He had no time to react and fell far away again. However, Cecilia was not much better. She was also blown away, and she was also entangled with a
A strange red and yellow ring-shaped smoke cloud.
Just when Cecelia was about to fall to the ground, the evil mage Trode, who had never made any move, suddenly turned into a faint puff of smoke and rushed towards Cecelia.
The smoke easily penetrated the layer of crystal clear ice armor wrapped around Cecilia's body. This magical attack, which seemed to have no power at all, instantly destroyed the armor that was almost difficult to be broken by any magic.
The strongest defensive magic has been cracked.
With a soft sound of ice breaking, the ice armor surrounding Cecelia's body disappeared without a trace. At the same time, countless strange smoke clouds disappeared. In the face of Trode's newly acquired power,
, Drex's curse magic also lost its effect.
…
At this moment, in the distant mine, Milinda was struggling to walk out of the teleportation magic circle. She was carrying a wounded person covered in blood on her shoulders. This person who looked like he was dying was none other than Kao.
His Majesty Horkels III, Emperor of the Kingdom of Chi.
Seeing this scene, the clergy who were guarding the side immediately ran over quickly. They were at a loss for words but carefully laid the seriously injured and dying Emperor down on the ground. Some other clergy had already been prepared.
They obtained the purest holy water of life and soaked Horcols III in the holy water of life. Five or six high-ranking priests performed one after another on the supreme majesty, the most advanced "miracle of life" among the sacred magic.
"The Miracle of Life" is a kind of magic that claims to be able to bring the dead back to life. However, even the "Miracle of Life" cannot cure the fatal wounds suffered by Horkels III in a short time. Such heavy injuries are difficult for ordinary people to do.
Say, I'm afraid it will lead to immediate death.
At this moment, deep in the mine, the great wizard Kobe Leo stood helplessly in the center. He was all wet, and his face was full of exhaustion. Around him were twelve red-robed men.
Most of the mages could only sit down on the ground, and they were also extremely weak at this moment.
Kobe Leo sighed heavily. He didn't know whether everything he was doing at the moment was completely wrong. He gently pointed the red ball with dazzling light in his hand towards the one directly above the roof.
A magic circle shot over.
The moment the red ball touched the roof, the magic circle seemed to ripple, as if penetrating the water, and the ball condensed with powerful energy suddenly disappeared without a trace.
"Did we make a completely wrong choice?" Kobe Leo sighed blankly as he looked at the ceiling that had regained its calmness and the complicated magic circle.
"Perhaps we are all wrong, but I will still complete my work because I am a Kaoqi." One of the red-robed mage said slowly.
"But what will our descendants think? Maybe they will not approve of our actions." Kobe Leo said with a wry smile.
"That is the view that the Kaoqi people will have in the future, if the Kaoqi Kingdom still exists in this world." Another red-robed mage said: "But I belong to this era, and I believe that everything I do will be of great significance to
In this era, it is necessary to do it. Don’t you often mention the wheel of fortune that Archbishop Meron said? I have done my best.”
The magician's words were obviously recognized by everyone, and at this moment, the great magician Kobe Leo was completely silent. So far, he still can't figure out why Trode gave him the hint to complete his mission.
.
Kobe Leo felt that he had never been as helpless and confused as he was today, but he also knew very well that at this moment he no longer had any role, and all his power had been condensed in the red ball, and that ball
The ball must be in Drakes's hands at this moment.
Kobe Leo didn't know that Drakes was in such a hurry at the moment that he had no time to summon the red ball.
Although he had known for a long time that there was a person like Chris whose strength surpassed any super magician, he and others had already guessed the strength possessed by Her Royal Highness Princess Sophie.
But only now did Drekes know that they had obviously still underestimated this woman who was famous for her madness and strength.
Watching the dancing in the sky, watching the bright electric cocoon that may disappear and suddenly appear from another direction at any time, watching the waves of light coming with Chrissy's ear-piercing screams and the random waving of her arms.
With all kinds of magic, Drekes felt a sense of powerlessness from the bottom of her heart.
But what frightened him the most was not the overwhelming magic attacks. Drekes would rather suffer a few magic attacks than be swallowed up by the black balls all around.
Although he didn't know what existed in these torn spaces, he knew that once a certain part of his body touched these black balls, it would immediately be stuck between the gaps in the space.
The only way Drex knew to get out of this predicament was to cut off the stuck part. This was a lesson he learned at the cost of blood, and the price he paid was an arm.
He even saw that the evil mage Trode, who he once greatly envied, was also not immune. Trode, who turned into smoke, looked much lighter than at the beginning. Just now he was flanked by two black balls.
Suddenly a third of it was lost.
Drex was desperately running around, controlling lightning. Although he had a flying speed that far surpassed other magicians, what made him despair was that his opponent had the ability to move instantly.
But what frightens him the most is that this kind of teleportation magic can also be used on others. Just now, it was this strange and unpredictable ability that injured the great magician who fell to the ground and was about to fall into Trode's grasp.
He was rescued by Shixi Celia. It was this same magic that was mixed with a lightning storm and enveloped him all of a sudden. When he woke up, he was about to crash into a black ball.
Already.
Although he escaped the fatal crisis in the nick of time, he still lost an arm. It is for this reason that Drechs ran away faster than anything else when he saw the lightning storm.
But he also knew very well that if he could only escape, he would definitely not be able to escape the fate of failure in the end, but he would never dare to stop for a moment. As long as he paused, if he was caught by the teleportation magic, he would be thrown into a pile.
There was definitely no way for him to survive in the middle of the black ball.
At this moment, Drekes can only hope that the evil mage Trode can deal with this incredibly powerful woman, but he is also very clear that the possibility of this wish coming true is very small. At this moment, the evil mage Trode is no better than him.
Whenever he has free time, he is still trying his best to escape.
Drakes can guess why Trode didn't use the teleportation magic that he is best at drilling into the ground. After all, for space magic, there are only up, down, left and right, and it absolutely has nothing to do with whether it is air or solid.
It has nothing to do with the rocks. It is difficult to say whether there is that kind of black ball hidden in the ground, and Trode must not be able to penetrate the earth and see the scene below.
Because of this, Drex can only flee in the opposite direction of Trode's escape as much as possible, but he also knows very well that this method will not do much for an enemy who can freely teleport over long distances.
effect.
Facing the black spheres that emerged all around, and facing the sky that had become like a piece of cheese full of holes, Drechs suddenly felt that he was unable to exert any strength. He even
There is some suspicion that maybe there was no need for the alliance between the Kingdom of Montita and the Kingdom of Sophie at the beginning, and there was also no need for so many soldiers to sacrifice in vain. As long as this crazy and powerful woman relied on it, it was enough to reduce the entire Kaoqi Kingdom to the ground.
flat ground.
What's more, he will never forget that behind this powerful woman there is another opponent. The name Enleco Pross has always been a nightmare that they fear and worry about.
In addition, there is Fenasia. Whenever he thinks of this name, Drexi's teeth itch with hatred. He has suffered two disastrous defeats from this little girl, and he did not fight back at all in both of those two disastrous defeats.
room.
However, compared with the previous failure, Drex felt that his situation at this moment was even more miserable. He felt like a wild dog at the end of his rope being chased and beaten everywhere.
Just when Drex was confused and worried about how he should escape from the predicament, he suddenly felt something in his heart. It was that Kobe Leo had completed the condensation of the Fire Pearl and used this extremely powerful weapon.
Send a signal to yourself.
But at this moment, Drekes no longer knew what role the Fire Pearl could play. He and the evil mage Trode fled for their lives, obviously far beyond the scope of setting up an ambush.
Do we have to turn back and escape the same way from now on? But looking at the crazy woman jumping around in the sky without stopping for a moment, it is impossible to trap her.
What's more, there is another problem that must be solved. If you want to use the Fire Origin Pearl to detonate the powerful energy contained in the earth's veins, although it does not take much time, it is enough for that incredibly powerful guy to seal himself.
Get into that ball.
Once you enter another space, no matter how powerful the magic is, it will lose its effect.
Just when Drekes was hesitating, he suddenly felt pain in his chest again. It was obvious that the injury just now occurred again, and this was a sign that the witchcraft was about to lose its effect.
Suddenly, infinite despair and loss came to Drex's heart. These negative emotions were like the fire bead condensed with powerful and pure energy, which suddenly detonated the fire that was originally hidden deep in his body.
, a strong will that has been suppressed by him.
Despair, loss, grief, helplessness, anger, and resentment. At this moment, Drexel's heart was filled with the same emotions as the Magic Emperor who watched the empire collapse in blazing flames.
Suddenly, with a burst of blood mist flying, the skin and muscles all over Drex's body exploded, and even his red robe, which had never been changed, was torn into pieces by the exploding blood mist. This was undoubtedly the one.
The result of witchcraft, but this fatal blow that should have killed Drex immediately had no effect at this moment.
Suddenly, a black ball locked onto Drekes' back, which had already exposed its bones. What was unbelievable was that Drekes actually tore off the piece of spine, and all the meridians and spinal cord were pulled apart.
Go, and at this moment, Drexi obviously can no longer be called a human being. He is more terrifying and weird than any monster created by the ancient demons.
Even if the evil mage Trode stood in front of Drexel at this moment, he would probably look quite ordinary, even beautiful and harmonious.
Suddenly, a loud roar shook the world, and Drechs, who had turned into this terrifying appearance, seemed to have completely forgotten the ability to speak.
But following this long roar, a bright ball emitting dazzling light suddenly jumped out of thin air.
According to the plan, Drex was supposed to use this fire bead, which condensed powerful and pure energy, to detonate the huge energy hidden deep in the earth's veins.
But at this moment, Drekes actually swallowed the Fire Pearl in one gulp. Almost in an instant, Drekes' broken body suddenly emitted countless bright red lights. These red lights were like red-hot irons.
Drakes's broken body looked like it was made of paper.
The red light quickly spread along Drex's body, and wherever it went, all muscles and bones disappeared without a trace.
This weird and creepy burning obviously did not make Drechs feel any pain at this moment. His heart was filled with anger and despair.
At the moment when the red light was about to completely incinerate his body, Drechs suddenly let out a long and shrill scream, which was filled with incomparable resentment and sorrow.
As the whistle sounded, the glaring red light suddenly went out, and only faint clouds of smoke slowly rose from the remaining body.
The smoke is so dim that it is almost impossible to see.
One of the wisps of smoke fell to the ground with the wind, and the wisp of smoke suddenly hung on a bush. What is incredible is that the bush gradually emitted puffs of smoke. The smoke became thicker and thicker, as if
The bushes were burned by fire, but the smoke refused to dissipate, and even slowly rolled and unfolded, as if it were a living creature.
At this moment, another wisp of smoke also fell to the ground. This wisp of smoke hung on the treetops. The same scene appeared again, but the thick smoke covering the trees was obviously much heavier, with large clouds of thick smoke.
It fell to the ground as if it could not support the weight. The thick smoke that fell to the ground quickly spread and kept devouring other plants.
This writhing and churning black cloud was filled with a creepy and weird feeling, but what was even more creepy was that one of the clouds actually gradually condensed into a human shape.
The figure became clearer and clearer, finally revealing Drakes' original appearance, but it was no longer Drakes, although it possessed Drakes's wisdom and memory, and although it also possessed a part of Drakes.
Emotion, however, has transcended the constraints of life at this moment and has become another kind of existence.
A being that strengthens itself by constantly devouring it. It is very clear after rebirth that as long as it is given enough time, it can definitely become the most powerful individual in the world. Even the gods and demons will use it.
There is no way at all, pure and unlimited devouring is the strongest power it possesses.
If swallowing can also be regarded as a rule, then it undoubtedly already has the status of gods, but swallowing is also somewhat like the power of chaos, perhaps it is closer to the demons at this moment.
However, this new one, which is a mixture of the will of the ancient magic emperor and the two superb magicians Drex, knows very well that it currently does not have the power to fight against the real gods and demons, and can only become stronger.
Only then can it have the ability to defy the gods, otherwise, it will inevitably be sealed again.
It already has a very suitable target to devour in its heart. The huge energy condensed in the earth veins can just become its nutrition. However, it is also very clear that there is no way to completely digest this pure and incomparable energy.
.
If the swallowed energy can be used to form its powerful body, then it also needs the power to control the body, which is extremely powerful mental power. However, at this moment, its mental power is obviously not enough to keep up with the swallowed energy.
The rate at which strength increases.
It knows very well what consequences this will have. It has made a mistake in this matter once before, so it absolutely does not want to fail again.
At this moment, it already knows what it should do first, seize and occupy the wills of some powerful magicians, and let them become the expansion of its own spiritual power. There is a place where a group of people who meet the conditions it needs gather,
There is also a magic circle there that can be used just right.
Thinking of this, this dense smoke cloud suddenly floated up. It gathered up the part of the smoke cloud that it could control, and those parts that did not obey the order were surrounded and driven into those black balls.
It is a good choice to seal these things in a different world where nothing can be swallowed. It does not care about losing this part of the body that cannot be controlled. These things will only cause trouble, and they may even be harmful to themselves as they continue to devour and grow according to their instincts.
pose a threat.
Throwing away most of its uncontrolled body, it once again returns to the shape of a black cloud and floats toward the distance, where there is everything it needs, where its body will become complete and powerful.
…
In the mine that temporarily served as the headquarters, under the dim light, the emperor opened his eyes extremely weakly. The golden holy water of life submerged most of his body, with only his face slightly above the water.
The elegant and calm expression in the past had disappeared now. His pale face and absent eyes made him look like a corpse.
Next to His Majesty, who once stood at the pinnacle of power, stood quietly the most powerful and powerful figure in the Kaoqi Kingdom.
Next to Horkels III, standing next to the huge tank filled with holy water of life, was Milinda. She did look a bit like a queen at this moment, with a rare gentle and gentle look in her eyes.
In her eyes and on the corners of her mouth, there was no longer the usual sarcastic smile. Instead, a sad look appeared on her face at this moment, which made Milinda look like another person.
generally.
The other two friends from back then, now the high-ranking commander-in-chief and prime minister of the Kaoqi Kingdom's army, stood slightly apart, their faces also full of sadness.
The son of the sun seemed to have lost the dazzling sunshine at this moment, but Somyret was still as silent and rigorous as before.
Farther away, stood the two most trusted old ministers of His Majesty the Supreme Emperor. The Great Mage Kobe Leo looked extremely tired. This exhausted appearance seemed to be not just due to physical fatigue.
The reason may be more because he is mentally exhausted.
The former head of the Holy Knights, the oldest paladin, the middle-aged knight who had worked all his life for the Kingdom of Kaoqi and to maintain the majesty of the Kaoqi royal family, was also in an extremely low mood at the moment.
.
"Has the doomsday catastrophe already played its role?" The exhausted Horkels III struggled to ask in a very low and hoarse voice. He looked weak, as if every word at this moment required an overdraft of life to be able to say it.
.
"So far, there has been no reaction to prove that Drakes has used the Fire Pearl." The Great Mage Kobe Leo replied in an unusually low voice. He was even weaker than the seriously injured Horkels III.
This is obviously a huge difference from his past image.
"It seems that Drex and Trod have met a strong enemy." Horkels III said in a voice so soft that it was almost inaudible. He even seemed to be talking to himself.
"The strength of Her Royal Highness Princess Sophie of the Kingdom is obviously far beyond our imagination. It was almost not a battle, and judging from the current signs, there is almost no possibility of Drakes and Trode fighting back." At this moment.
Only Somilet was able to maintain his previous calmness. He said in a calm tone: "And their fighting range has left the place where we set the trap."
Everyone knew very well what everything Somilet said meant, but no one among them was willing to comment on it at the moment.
"How is the war situation on the Eastern Front?" Horkels III suddenly asked, but his indifferent tone obviously showed that he no longer cared much about it. Maybe at this moment he was just out of his duties as the emperor, and
Ask about the situation of the war.
"I just received unexpected news that the Kingdom of Sophie has stopped attacking. The supreme commander of the Kingdom of Sophie - the Duke of Shinna County, the leader of the Royal Knights, and the Magic Knight Kate, reported to the commander-in-chief of our Eastern Front Corps
, my son Relta challenges, Mr. Kate hopes to use a fair knight duel
To decide the outcome of the battle, if he fails in the duel, he will let the army of the Kingdom of Sophie withdraw from the territory of the Kingdom of Kaoqi, and guarantee that he will not take the initiative to attack the Kingdom of Kaoqi within ten years. If he
If the challenge is successful, that Leerta will lead the entire Eastern Front Corps to surrender." The middle-aged knight said slowly.
"Presumably Leerta has accepted the challenge, but it's a pity that I can't see the duel between the two of them again." Horkels III sighed and said: "I really miss those days, but it's a pity that those days are gone.
Gone forever."
No one answered what His Majesty said. In fact, when they heard this surprising news, they had already guessed that Leerta would most likely accept the challenge.
This challenge may be seen as a continuation of the challenge that took place on the altar where Victory Day was held, but at this moment the strength of both sides has changed dramatically.
The boy who was still very unskilled in martial arts back then is now regarded by the world as the most powerful knight in the world. In the duel to put down the rebellion, he succeeded with an ordinary thin stabbing sword in his hand.
Killing Yusipu who possessed the "Scorching Gravel" was undoubtedly a powerful proof that the magic knight had surpassed the ordinary paladin.
Everyone here knows very clearly about Leerta's strength. Although in the past year, the duel that took place on the altar of Victory Day also deeply stimulated Leerta and made him possess
Incredible progress.
However, even if Leerta's strength improved by leaps and bounds, he would never be able to compare with the real Paladin.
The weaker side back then has become extremely powerful. At this moment, Relta has obviously become the weaker of the two. The two of them are about to embark on a duel again, and the outcome is determined with almost no guesswork.
"Perhaps this is the best ending." Horkels III, who was suddenly silent for a while, sighed heavily and said. He seemed to relax all of a sudden and lay quietly on the bed soaked in the holy water of life again.
In the water tank.
Others can also understand why His Majesty the Emperor said this. In fact, when they heard the news, they also thought that this might be the best ending.
The small and crowded mine became quiet again.
Suddenly, there was a violent shaking that surprised everyone.
"Could it be an earthquake? Maybe Drex has used the Fire Bead to detonate the energy in the earth's veins." Milinda asked immediately, and the person she was asking was naturally the great mage Kobe Leo.
Before Kobe Leo could reply, a strange sound suddenly resounded through the entire mine. The sound seemed unusually dull and slow, as if it was the sound of a huge leather drum being tapped lightly.
"Let me answer this question." The dull voice made a sound similar to talking. As the sound came, a thick plume of smoke suddenly emerged from the ceiling. The smoke seemed to have originally come from between the rocks.
What emerges from it seems extremely strange and incredible.
One of the clouds of smoke gradually fell down, and the falling smoke revealed the appearance of a human being. The human form composed of smoke became clearer and clearer, and finally the appearance of Drakes was revealed.
"Drekes, is that you?" Someret asked cautiously, obviously he felt something bad first.
The same bad premonition also enveloped everyone here, and even His Majesty the Emperor, who had originally planned to rest, opened his eyes wide.
"I can be said to be Drakes, but it can also be said that I am not the person you are familiar with. Most of my will and thoughts come from the person you just mentioned, but another part of me comes from a man named Wright Wei.
You all must have heard of Desker's character." The humanoid figure made of smoke laughed softly, and the smile looked quite proud.
These words did not shock everyone. Except for the former leader of the Holy Knights, everyone else had some understanding of the field that Drekes had been studying.
The reason why the former head of the Holy Knights was not surprised was that the Victory Day altar suddenly turned into a huge pothole. This was a scene full of horror and weirdness. With the news about this huge and ancient altar,
The secret was revealed, and he was already worried that maybe the disaster that destroyed the Magic Empire back then would come to the world again.
In fact, he has always attributed the subsequent series of disasters and changes in the Kaoqi Kingdom to the ancient magic emperor's secret curses and instigations.
"Why are you here?" Milinda asked slowly.
"Frankly speaking, I came here to perfect my body. I am not complete enough. My life mark is still too weak, so my mental power is not enough to control the powerful body. What I need most at this moment is to be able to arouse the spirit."
A container of resonance, and here is everything I need most - to be strong
The earth is strong enough to support changes, and has a body with extraordinary magic capacity, as well as a magic circle that can concentrate mental power and gather powerful magic power. All of these are what I need most, and it is because of this that I
Appear here." The condensed smoke said in that weird voice.
"That is to say, you want to kill all of us here and devour our power to perfect yourself?" Hagrid said coldly, although he knew very well that his strength was simply not comparable to the thing in front of him.
Even if it was nothing, he still didn't intend to just sit back and die.
"Perhaps in the end I will indeed devour you all and turn your flesh, blood and soul into a part of my body. But what I need most now is not to swallow the materials and transform them into my body and strength. I need to treat you as my body and strength."
The work is a container of spiritual resonance, you may not die, of course, provided that you can maintain your will and not be assimilated and taken away by me." The smoke said calmly.
Suddenly it paused for a moment and hesitated for a while as if it remembered something.
"Mr. Sommeret, in a sense, I still owe you a favor. Although I have transformed into another life form and the original Drex has disappeared, after all, most of my will and thoughts come from that person.
Someone named Drexel."
"The man named Drakes has always been guilty of you because he has never been able to repay you for the help you gave him, and he also changed his employer halfway and found another one who could give him greater help.
I am your employer, so as the only reward I can give you, I will give you a chance to escape so that you can leave here safely."
Everyone was quite surprised by what the smoke said. Could it be that Drechs, who had turned into an inanimate form, had more emotions than when he was a human being?
No one can answer this matter. The only thing that is known is that Somilet will be able to survive, while the others will most likely die in this unknown place. This deep mine will be their burial place.
's grave.
"Thank you for your kindness. Maybe I'd better call you Drakes. I never thought that there are still people in this world who have any feelings for me. I have completely forgotten the existence of feelings. In my opinion, I
All that was needed was a deal, a deal without any emotion that both sides could benefit from. I never imagined that I would have lost everything and that I was about to reach the end of my life.
At that time, I could actually see something like emotion, which is hard for me to understand, play a role in my body." Somyret said with a wry smile. He sighed heavily, with a look of loss on his face, and he looked towards
He glanced around, at his long-standing ally Hegeero, at His Majesty the Emperor, who was seriously injured and dying and could only rely on the Holy Water of Life to support his life, and finally his eyes fell on his sister.
"I very much doubt that today is destined to be the day that overturns everything. I suddenly discovered that I am not without a trace of emotion." At this point, he slowly turned his head towards the smoke and said, "Can I live my life forever?"
Exchange the right to go down to another person?"
"It's up to you. Anyway, the person named Drakes owes you a favor. You can exchange your life for the life of another person. Apart from the big guy standing on the side, he will be the most important resonance container. I
His help is greatly needed." The smoke replied.
Someret looked back at the great wizard Kobe Leo, he smiled and shook his head and said: "Even if a great miracle occurs, it will not make me feel good towards that big stupid bear."
As he spoke, he slowly walked to Milinda's side, stretched out his right hand and slowly combed Milinda's hair.
"My dear sister, this is the last and only gift that my incompetent brother can give you. Go and live for those of us who have no tomorrow."
As he spoke, he turned back to the smoke and said: "Let Milinda leave, and I will exchange my life for her chance to survive."
Somilet's words did not arouse any surprise in the eyes of others, as if it was a matter of course. The eyes of the two good old men, who had always been upright, even had tears in their eyes.
"Help me take off my ring." Suddenly His Majesty the Emperor, who was soaked in the holy water of life, said with all his strength.
Somyret naturally understood what his former fox friend was thinking at this moment. He slowly took off the ruby ring on the index finger of his right hand that represented the Kaoqi imperial power for the emperor.
"I no longer need this thing. Maybe it's too late now. From now on, Milinda, you will be the ruler of the Kaoqi Kingdom. You will control the future destiny of the Kaoqi Kingdom." At this point.
The emperor raised his other arm with difficulty, put his hands together, and kept gently stroking the diamond ring still on his ring finger.
"It's enough for me to keep this ring. I want to keep this beloved ring with me, and also keep my thoughts here." Horkels III said leisurely, with the corner of his mouth
A smile appeared...
…
Milinda left. She left quietly without saying a word. When the white light of the teleportation magic circle flashed, the former Queen of Kaoqi disappeared from everyone's eyes.
Looking at the bright white light that suddenly dissipated, Hagrid sighed long and shook his head and said: "If you could be like this back then, maybe that guy wouldn't have become so weird. I've always felt that
The reason why she makes herself stand out is to get other people's attention. Pay attention to her as a lonely person who has no parents and also does not receive the care of her brothers."
"Perhaps what you said is not wrong at all, but everyone's destiny should be controlled by themselves, right? For people like you, Milinda and me, we are simply not qualified to seek everyone's happiness. I believe
If Milinda could make another choice, she would still choose her current path in life." Somilet shrugged his shoulders easily as he spoke, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
"I have always thought that I know you quite well, but this time I don't quite understand. Have you never thought about escaping on your own?" Hagero suddenly interjected and asked, as if he had forgotten about the smoke in front of him.
It has to be clean.
"How is it possible? After all, I have spent most of my life weighing various interests." Somyret sighed heavily and continued: "Letting Milinda escape is also a weighing of interests. At this moment,
I have nothing left, power and status, everything will disappear with the collapse of Kaoqi. If I can escape, I will spend the rest of my life fleeing and hiding, whether it is Sophie or Montita
No one will ever let me go."
At this point, Somyret smiled bitterly: "The days without power will be too boring and unbearable for people like me."
"Do you think Milinda will live a good life after she goes out?" Haguero asked.
"At least for those people in Strayer County, Milinda is still their beloved hero. Maybe she can do better. Don't forget that her strategy is not inferior to either of you or me. More
What's more, once Kaoqi is captured by the Sophies and Montitas, the Sophies who don't have much desire for possession may also
They also don’t want to see Kaoqi being annexed by the Montita people. It may be a more appropriate choice to let someone they trust lead Kaoqi. The same situation happened after the demise of the Magic Empire.
, isn’t it the great sage Mekaton who made such arrangements? And isn’t he Sophie’s benefactor?” Somyret said leisurely.
"Mekaton can definitely not be called a Sophie. I can tell you that his real name is Lefort Vedsk. Back then, he had the same status and authority as the other me. Now that I think about it, my relationship with
He can be regarded as betraying the empire backwards, and our betrayal led to the fall of the empire." The smoke suddenly interrupted and said: "I guess you don't have anything to explain, so let me finish my work.
"
As soon as the deep voice fell, countless thick smoke immediately filled the entire mine, everything was shrouded in darkness, and everything became quiet.
…
In the distance, on another vast land, in the center, two knights wearing heavy armor faced each other on divine horses.
None of them were wearing helmets, and the armor was more suitable as a symbol of their identity than as a piece of armor.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time." The older knight sighed softly and said, "Everything has become so powerful."
"Yes, I also have a feeling of vicissitudes of life. Maybe our battle will become the final showdown between knights." The same lonely look also appeared on Kate's face.
"I didn't expect you to have the same feeling as me. You are a magician, and the next era belongs to you." Leerta said slightly surprised.
"At first, I was indeed proud of being a magician, but now I am more and more proud of being a knight. What I value is not the power of the knight, but the spirit that the knight represents. Unfortunately,
This spirit is about to become a thing of the past." Kate said with emotion.
"Yes, I have always been very glad that you are the commander-in-chief of the Sophie Legion, because I know that you will never let the air warships fly to the city and cover the cities and civilians in a sea of fire. Although this is
It's easy for you. However, as you just said, maybe this will be the last showdown between knights. From now on, for both sides of the war, it may only mean who has more air battleships.
Who can turn the opponent's cities to ashes one after another?"
Having said this, Leerta gently took off the long sword hanging in front of the horse, solemnly performed a military salute and said: "I am honored to know you, and I am even more honored to be able to duel with you twice.
"
Kate also took off the long sword, but did not pull the long sword out of the scabbard. He also solemnly performed a military salute and then slowly said: "I also feel extremely honored, because I can be the knight when the knight is about to retire from the stage of history.
When I meet you, you are a true knight."
As she spoke, Kate waved the long sword in her hand and threw the scabbard far away: "Let the two of us use this duel to bring the final end to the era that once belonged to knights."
As the words fell, a dignified aura filled the space between the two.
Suddenly there was a roar, and in the midst of the roar, Leerta's long sword was like a bolt of lightning and slashed towards Kate. This time Leerta did not retain any strength at all, and the sharp sword energy made a faint sound towards Kate.
Then Kate shot away.
The same swift sword light stabbed out from Kate's hand, but compared with Leerta's swift attacks, Kate's moves were as flexible and swift as a swift in the wind. Every thrust and every chop he made was
It looks so light and elegant like fallen leaves moving in the wind.
There was a loud "zheng" sound, and the two long swords clashed. In terms of strength, Leerta obviously had the advantage, but he was at a disadvantage in terms of fighting skills. He was obviously a little panicked when parrying. Because of this, the long sword in his hand
Instead, the sword was swung high...
"Light" made another loud noise, and Kate, who was pursuing the victory, quickly swung her sword, but Leerta could only use the shield on her right arm to resist this unusually fast blow.
A bright spark flashed across, and Kate and Relta were separated again. They turned their horses around and took a few steps back.
"It's unimaginable that your martial arts skills have improved so much all of a sudden." Although Leerta already knew that he was definitely no match for Kate at this moment, he originally thought that the reason why Kate was so powerful was because of his endless attacks.
Magical martial arts, he did not expect that after this short confrontation, he was shocked to find that even if Kate did not use magic, he would still be difficult to become Kate's opponent.
Hearing what Relta said, Kate could only sigh deeply in his heart. He knew very well where his strength came from. This was the result of countless efforts and hard work.
Among the four magic apprentices who set off on the road to trial together, he was originally the most powerful. However, as time went by, not only did he gradually distance himself from Enleco, but even Bertina
Surpassing him made him feel frustrated, and it also made him want to become stronger wholeheartedly.
"Unfortunately, maybe this is proof that the era of knights is bound to end. Compared with me, my other two companions have made more and greater progress." Kate said slowly.
Relta was stunned for a moment, and then he nodded, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"As you said, let us write a perfect end to the era of knights. I hope that future generations can understand us." Leerta said with renewed energy.
He raised the long sword in his hand again. The long sword seemed to also want to prove the value of its existence, and it made a humming sound.
The sword light flickered again, the sound of "threads" of metal breaking through the wind was heard again, and the "clanging" sound of swords clashing was heard again.
…
Leerta was already immersed in the enthusiasm of displaying his martial arts to his fullest. At this moment, he had forgotten what purpose he was fighting for. The only thing he knew was that this might be the last time he wielded his long sword to fight his opponent.
This duel will be the final glory of the Cavaliers, and it will also be the end of the Cavaliers' era.
Suddenly, a bright sword light came from the direction of his backhand. Leerta quickly used his long sword to parry. Just like the previous times, his speed obviously could not keep up with the opponent's speed. Leerta's only choice was
All he can rely on is his rich experience.
There was a deafening sound of metal clashing, and Leerta staggered, but he immediately thrust out the long sword, because he knew very well that Kate would never miss this obvious flaw. At this moment, he could only use the same sword to
Only tricks can make up for the disadvantages of posture.
Just as Leerta expected, a swift long sword stabbed over, but Kate only held the sword with one hand. He obviously focused all his strength on this stabbing attack.
The body was slightly tilted, just enough to avoid the blow that seemed to kill both of them.
The long sword made a gentle metallic friction sound, and the sharp sword tip not only pierced the steel shield on his arm, but also pierced his arm and armor.
Relta felt the faint pain in her ribs.
"I won." Kate suddenly withdrew the sword and said calmly.
"It's a pity that I didn't even get to see you perform magical martial arts." Leerta lowered his body and lay on the saddle and said.
"You'd better not talk for now. It's important to treat your wounds. If you don't have holy water with you, I have it here," Kate said.
"No, I didn't plan to go back alive in the first place. I didn't want to see the fall of the Kaoqi Kingdom." Leerta shook his head slowly and said, "Being able to die in the last showdown of the Knight Age
In the hands of your respectable opponent, this may be the only option I can accept."
Suddenly there was a violent cough and a mouthful of blood spurted onto the ground.
After coming here for a while, Leerta raised his head with difficulty and said: "Don't worry, I have made arrangements before leaving the camp. My subordinates and my legion will surrender to you. Those who may prevent this
The person who did it has already been placed under house arrest by me in advance."
"Why is this happening?" Kate asked with anxiety and confusion at the same time.
"Instead of letting the Montita people occupy Vedsk, rather than letting the grassland people vent their resentment to the Kaoqi people, I would rather let the army of the Kingdom of Sophie march into Vedsk. At least there are elephants in the Kingdom of Sophie.
You respect the traditional knight so much." After saying these last words, Leerta slowly slid off the horse and lay quietly on the ground, with blood staining his chest.
