Jorah didn't want to take advantage of the situation anymore. He hadn't been injured. When the enemy retreated, he suddenly sped up and caught up with them on his legs. Sword aura swept out, and sword rays over three feet long appeared, killing more than twenty people in one go.
Jorah was finally exhausted. After all, it took a lot of energy to pierce through magic armor with sword aura. He forcibly increased his speed again and chased after the galloping horses.
"What a pity for my two hundred men." A sinister voice sounded. Salin immediately locked onto the location of the voice.
A powerful aura actually appeared at the back of the campsite.
Rex's expression was as usual, as if he already knew of the enemy's existence.
"You only appeared when most of your men are dead. Do you still have some special tricks up your sleeves?" Rex's voice was calm, and no emotion could be heard.
"Of course. A two-faced cavalry has two lives. The battle has just begun." The sinister voice echoed in the air. Nelis frowned and was about to rush out of the carriage.
Salin held her down and said, "Don't worry. Rex can handle it."
Rex nodded and said, "Do it."
Before Rex finished speaking, the cavalrymen who were killed in front of the campsite were already twisting their bodies and about to stand up. The two Black Iron Sword Saints at the back of the campsite pretended not to see it. They carried their longswords and went straight to the back of the campsite.
A murmur suddenly came from the magic chariot in front of the campsite. It was the chanting of four mages at the same time.
When one reached the level of a Great Mage, many spells didn't need to be chanted anymore, let alone chanted with special syllables. Such a complicated spell could only mean one thing. The four Great Mages hadn't completely mastered this spell. It was one of the most complicated spells among the intermediate spells.
With the enhancement and stability of the magic chariot, the four Great Mages still had to chant to release this spell. Salin couldn't help but push open the window and look outside.
He saw that the campsite suddenly darkened, as if the starlight in the sky was covered by something. Then, a ball of gentle white light bloomed and rushed into the clouds in the night sky.
The magic cavalrymen who were trying to stand up were shone by this white light, and they immediately collapsed like snowmen exposed to the sun for half a day. The magic armor on their bodies started to deform and flow down like melted candy.
Then, Salin heard a mournful roar in front of the camp. It was as if there were huge magical beasts hidden under the magic cavalrymen's masks, and the sound they made was not human at all.
The voice behind the campsite became alarmed and furious. "Eternal Night Aurora! You! You … "
Towards the end, the voice became high-pitched and clearly belonged to a woman.
"Of course I know who you are. The evil sorcerer of the Pink Legion. If you survive this time, it will take you thirty years to gather such a two-faced cavalry, right?" Rex's voice spread out in the night and spread far away.
Salin shivered. Rex had long known who the enemy was, but he had never leaked it.
Rex smiled at him and said, "Don't think too much. The Pink Powder Legion is good at breeding small magical beasts, and they are very good at eavesdropping. If I didn't hide it from you, they wouldn't have fallen for it."
Eternal Night Aurora was a compound spell that required multiple Magicians to prepare at the same time, as well as the support of special equipment before it could be released. The four Magicians had never left the magic chariot. They had been waiting for the two-faced cavalry.
The two-faced cavalry was an existence between undead and puppets. It usually had the aura of humans and intelligence. It was even stronger than the dark warriors. In the second form of resurrection, mid-level magic was almost useless, and one could only fight it with their physical body.
However, every type of magic had a weakness. The spell that the two-faced cavalry was most afraid of was the Eternal Night Aurora. Pure light magic could also deal a certain amount of damage to the two-faced cavalry, but it couldn't directly melt the two-faced cavalry into wax figures like now.
Rex continued to say to Salin, "I've been procrastinating in Gushui Prefecture. I didn't return to your place immediately because I was preparing some special equipment. This time, the journey won't be peaceful. No matter how well our chariot disguises itself, it will still be seen through. If I didn't have these chariots, I was going to replace them with mechanical puppets. That's also something that people covet. "
Salin couldn't say anything. Rex was very meticulous. He must have sorted out all the enemies they would encounter on the way, and then prepared a targeted strategy. This was much better than him recklessly barging into the Chaotic Swamp. He also knew the characteristics of the two-faced cavalry. If these things successfully transformed into their second form, he would have no other way but to escape.
As for the Eternal Night Aurora, even if he became a Magic Shooter, he wouldn't be able to release it.
Rex was still talking to Salin. Her tone became gentler as she said, "You're different from before. Since you have a city, you can't do everything by yourself. He would let his subordinates do whatever they were capable of. Our most important thing is to cultivate magic. "
"You're right." Salin knew that Rex was reminding him that he couldn't put his energy into endless affairs.
"Rex, you're really good. I lost this time, but do you think you can return to Gushui Prefecture alive? There are more people waiting for you ahead, hahahaha … "
The woman laughed crazily, and her voice stopped abruptly.
After a while, Salin smelled a hint of blood. He felt that spiritual power again. The assassin beside Rex had attacked.
Salin couldn't help but ask, "Did you kill her?"
Rex shook her head and said, "She escaped. The leader of the Pink Legion isn't that easy to kill. "
"What's the Pink Legion?" Salin's understanding of magic increased, but he rarely paid attention to the various mysterious forces on the continent.
"It's a long story." Rex relaxed and leaned against the soft cushion. The swordsmen outside were cleaning up the battlefield. She had nothing to do, so she was in the mood to explain in detail to Salin.
"About 30 years ago, a genius appeared in the Tanggulas Empire. He was a true genius. His magic and martial arts reached a shocking level.
"That's impossible!" Salin cried out. This overturned his understanding of this world.
Once a person formed a magic string, they could no longer cultivate sword aura. Thus, those magic warriors were actually just magic apprentices. They could use simple level-0 spells and activate low-level spells on equipment, but they couldn't use mid-level spells.
Similarly, if a person could cultivate sword aura and condense it on a weapon, they could no longer cultivate a magic string. The magic books Salin had read were all relatively old. The most recent ones were 200 to 300 years old. Thus, he knew nothing about what had happened in the Tanggulas Empire.
"It's true. Uncle saw it with his own eyes."
Rex's uncle was, of course, Prince Sephiroth. Salin had a deep impression of that person. After becoming a Great Sorcerer, that was the only person who could make him feel fear.
Emperor Charnak was more powerful, but he was more like an elder. Sephiroth, on the other hand, was a cold Gold Sword Saint. If Salin stood in front of him, Sephiroth would only need one strike to finish him off, and he wouldn't be able to fight back.
Someone like Sephiroth had seen it with his own eyes, so it couldn't be fake.
"This genius was recognized by Emperor Tanggulas. He was given a title and led a large army. He was already a marquis at such a young age. Although Tanggulas's title was fake, he was a first-rank marquis. With one more step, he could enter the center of power in the empire and become someone who could influence the fate of the nation. Who would have thought that this guy would somehow provoke the emperor of Tanggulas. "
"Angered?"
"Yes. No one knows what happened. Some say that he abducted the imperial concubine, while others say that he embezzled the army's funds. Some even say that he colluded with our Qin Yin. Anyway, Emperor Tanggulas ordered him to be killed. "
"Is he dead?"
"Back then, the pope wanted to protect him from Emperor Tanggulas, but the old emperor didn't listen to the pope. Tens of thousands of soldiers surrounded him, but of course, he escaped."
This outcome didn't surprise Salin. If this guy hadn't escaped, there wouldn't be a Pink Army.
"It's not strange that he escaped. What's admirable is that he brought all his wives with him. He didn't leave any of his trusted aides behind."
"All his wives?"
"Yes. This guy is very lecherous. As long as he likes a woman, he will find a way to get her. Before he escaped, he had already married seven wives. One of them was even a member of the royal family of the Tanggulas Empire. "
Salin thought that this guy was very similar to Zola. However, Zola wasn't as strong as him, so he couldn't abduct the daughter of Cloud Flow Emperor.
"What made Emperor Tanggulas furious was that this guy didn't escape to Cloud Flow Emperor. Instead, he entered the Divine Grace Duchy. The Divine Grace Duchy is a vassal state of the Tanggulas Empire. But this guy did well there, so Emperor Tanggulas ordered the Grand Duke to send him back to Tanggulas. The Grand Duke refused, in the name of the pope. "
"Then this guy created the Pink Army?"
"No. Then this guy … was struck by lightning and killed. The Grand Duke wanted his wives, but that guy left a group of orphans and widows in Divine Grace City. "
"What happened next?" Sicar couldn't help but ask. No matter how strong a woman was, she was still a woman. She was naturally curious about this kind of thing.
"The Grand Duke was killed by a group of widows. These widows escaped from the Divine Grace Duchy and created the Pink Army."
"Struck by lightning …" Salin muttered to himself. He remembered the power of lightning he saw in the Hell of God's Punishment. He had already touched this secret, so why bother with other things? As long as he could control the power of lightning, he wouldn't have to worry about Sephiroth anymore.
