Underground in the abyss, after the ice layer fell off, the dark artificial buildings around gradually became clear. On the smooth obsidian wall, a platinum light was extending along the notches, and soon the entire corridor was lit up. Aloz and Metisha walked curiously along the corridor, but the two had been lost for a long time.
"We seem to have been walking in circles, sister Aloz."
The little female dragon's face turned red, but she held the star-shaped stone in one hand and waved her claws, showing her little fangs and said, "How is that possible, you must have remembered wrongly."
Metisha smiled.
"Yes," she nodded and smiled, "Just like in the Wild of the Four Realms, the reason why we haven't reached our destination is because we are walking too slowly."
Aloz seemed to have been electrocuted, she turned around and stared at Metisha with wide eyes. "You, you, how did you know!"
"I also know that you were the youngest dragon on the battlefield of the War of the Holy Saints, sister Aloz."
"In Moros, you snuck out on a date with Lord Flora, and were caught by the Wind Elf Guards, and Lord Eleranta gave you a good scolding." Metisha whispered, "Do you remember what she said at the time, 'How can you get lost on a tryst, how can my subordinates be so much worse than Gretel and Saint-ausol, how embarrassing, get lost!'" The little Fairy Princess imitated the scene vividly.
Aloz opened her mouth slightly, like a puppy showing her sharp fangs, her face was like a ripe apple, "Impossible, how could anyone know about this, you, you, who are you!"
Metisha tilted her head, smiled and did not answer.
"Ah!" Aloz suddenly screamed, she looked at her with some surprise, "I remember, it's you, little Princess Crescent! Why did you change your name to such a strange one? "
"That's my surname, sister Aloz." Metisha sighed, "My real name is Metisha."
The little female dragon stuck out her tongue and replied with some annoyance, "You look different."
Metisha touched her forehead, "Sister Aloz, I am a Heroic Spirit, my appearance will not change."
"Is that so?" Aloz scratched her round cheeks, "Then I probably remembered wrongly."
"So let me lead the way," Metisha replied, "Just like when we worked together before, okay?"
But Aloz did not answer. Instead, she raised a finger and pressed it against Medissa's lips. "Shh!" she said. "Do you hear something?"
Medissa was shocked, and quickly took a small step back, glaring at her.
"It's true, there's a sound!" The little female dragon quickly replied.
"Really?" The Silver Elf Princess raised her eyebrows slightly. She knew that the five senses of the Golden Race were much more sensitive than other races, but suddenly, her pointed ears twitched. Both of them turned their heads in a certain direction at the same time. Over there, there was a crossroad in the long corridor, and a battered figure was limping slowly from there.
After a while, Aloz and Metisha emerged from the invisibility spell.
"That guy looks familiar." The little female dragon bared her teeth, "Suspicious."
"It's Duke Arreck." Metisha replied.
She and Aloz looked at each other.
…
The white beam of light pierced through heaven and earth.
Maynild and the others turned their heads and stared in that direction from afar.
The second time —
Veronica looked angrily at Ko Hua as another image in front of her was drowned in the white light. Levoz, the border city of Cruz, had been reduced to ashes. She was so angry that she almost crushed the hilt of her sword, but Brando held on tightly to the female army commander, afraid that she would lose her mind. The three of them had launched many attacks on Ko Hua, but they had all failed. The Divine Barrier was like a wall of despair, lying between the mortals and the gods.
There was no way to break through.
Ko Hua turned her gaze to the next image — Oskin, a city of Wind Elves. Brando looked nervously at the rapidly changing images. There were still two more images, and below them was the beautiful castle by Lake Kurkel.
He was so nervous that his palms were sweating.
How could there be such a battle?
I have to think of a way.
At this time, Ko Hua suddenly looked up, as if looking at something, her voice echoed on the platform again.
"Sister, you're here."
Brando was slightly startled. He turned around and saw the figures of the young prince and Prince Lenarette appear on the cliff. "Teacher!" "Lady Veronica!" His and Shido's voices were the first to be heard, and then Brando saw another Ko Hua appear behind them. In the middle of the hall, Ko Hua's dark side frowned, while the kind Ko Hua just nodded gently.
Could the key to the battle be the kind Ko Hua? This thought flashed through Brando's mind.
"She is?" Mephistopheles asked.
"That is also Ko Hua, and the one controlling Milos is her dark soul."
"Two sides of one?"
Brando nodded. Something like that. "Ah, wait!" He was surprised to see that Veronica had already charged in that direction. Obviously, this female army commander had thought of the same thing, but the problem was that Veronica was much more decisive than he was. But by the time he reacted, the tip of Veronica's sword was almost in front of Ko Hua.
The kind Ko Hua was almost stunned. Her eyes widened, and she just stood there in a daze, not understanding why this human woman attacked her indiscriminately as soon as she saw her. Of course, even if she was not stunned, she might not be able to dodge Veronica's sword. After all, one was a spellcaster, and the other was a warrior. In close combat, there was no comparison at all.
Ko Hua opened her mouth slightly, and just as Veronica's sword was about to pierce through her heart, Brando's anxious shout finally came.
"Haruze, stop her!"
Without hesitation, the young prince unsheathed his sword to block Veronica's attack. However, Veronica did not even spare him a glance. The gap between the two of them was simply not on the same level. Just as the young prince unsheathed his sword, he felt a gentle force on his hand. Before he could react, his sword flew out of his hand and stabbed into the ceiling of the cave. But it was only a slight delay, and the kind Korfa finally reacted. She let out a low cry, and fell on her butt on the ground in fright.
Veronica's cyan sword aura flew over Ko Hua's head, only cutting off a few strands of hair. She frowned and prepared to attack again, but at this moment, Ko Hua's dark attack finally arrived.
"How dare you!" The dark Ko Hua's voice rumbled, and a white electric whip lashed out at Veronica. Veronica did not dare to block it directly, so she could only lean to the side and let the electric whip hit the cliff, cutting off a table-sized fragment from the solid wall.
And with this delay, Veronica finally lost the chance to continue attacking the kind Ko Hua.
She could not help but turn around and glare at Brando.
But Brando only felt relieved.
In fact, he had already thought it through. The key to this battle was definitely not Ko Hua. Ko Hua came to this platform because of him and the young prince. The key to this battle was definitely not a factor that could only appear on the battlefield. In other words, if Ko Hua did not appear, there would be no way to fight this battle?
This was obviously illogical.
He hurriedly gestured to Veronica, indicating that he had something to explain. But at this moment, Brando saw the fragment that Ko Hua's electric whip had swept down behind Veronica tumbling down. It hit one of the energy transmission pipes, and with a crack, the pipe caved in. The pipe immediately flashed, and the light on it was quickly extinguished.
Seeing this, Brando's heart skipped a beat.
"I know, so it's here!"
He immediately looked up and shouted to Mephisto and Veronica, "Attack the platform! Attack those pipes! "
The Ash Sword Saint and Veronica were slightly stunned and looked at him with some confusion. Clearly, they did not understand for a moment. Brando was so anxious that he could not help but shout, "She, Ko Hua is just a false god. She has no divine power barrier at all. The absolute difference in her body comes from Milos! Her power comes from this platform. Right now, she has not completely merged with Milos' body. It will be fine as long as she is cut off from the platform! "
As soon as Brando's voice fell, Dark Ko Hua, who was above the platform, changed her expression.
"Don't joke around, you guessed wrong!" she hurriedly defended herself.
Veronica and Mephisto looked at each other and immediately flew to the left and right sides of the energy transmission network scattered to the left and right sides of the platform. With a few flashes of sword light, dozens of energy transmission pipes were cut in the middle. The disordered magic flow formed a pulse like a nova explosion. In the blink of an eye, several huge holes were blasted in the dense network.
"Damn it!" Ko Hua screamed. She could no longer maintain her calm. She raised her hands and countless lightning bolts appeared out of thin air on the platform, like raindrops striking toward Brando, Mephisto, and Veronica. Mephisto and Veronica were fine. They could deal with these lightning attacks with a little distraction, but Brando was in a bit of trouble. It seemed that the other party was retaliating against him for finding out that weakness. Almost half of the lightning bolts were aimed at him. He only blocked two or three before the fourth hit him directly. His body went numb and he was immediately bathed in the lightning storm. If it were not for his ridiculously high Will, he would probably have been sent to see Martha directly.
But even so, the dense lightning bolts still took away almost two-thirds of his HP. More importantly, his clothes were now like that of a beggar's. Brando did not know whether to laugh or cry. He knew that this AOE attack should be shared by everyone in the party. But now, there were only three of them in the party, and Ko Hua saw him as the number one target. He could only blame himself for being unlucky.
After the lightning storm, Veronica and Mephisto launched another attack. But this time, Ko Hua was smarter. She simply gave up on attacking altogether. Instead, she channeled all her energy into the ground and supported a strong protective shield over the pipes. In the beginning, Brando could cut through several pipes with a single slash. But after Ko Hua cast the shield, she might not be able to cut through even one pipe. He looked back and saw that the progress of Veronica and Mephisto had been greatly reduced.
However, Brando felt that Ko Hua's brain was probably a little off. Although she did greatly slow them down, the problem was that if she did not attack, the pipes would be cut through one by one.
Of course, Brando was happy to see the Boss being stupid. No one would complain that their boss battle was too easy.
Besides, he vaguely felt that the problem was not that simple.
…
"Please wait a moment."
Scarlet heard the voice behind her and turned back. She glanced at the young man who had caught up from behind. She remembered that he seemed to have introduced himself as Babarn or something else. The name sounded a little strange to her. Erouine rarely had such a name, so she had a deeper impression of it.
The young man ran, panting. He probably had something urgent to attend to. The Highlander girl stared at him blankly. After a while, she remembered that she should be the one asking the question. "What is it?"
"Beautiful lady, I still don't know your name."
Scarlet frowned. "What does my name have to do with you?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. I just wanted to thank you." The young man replied breathlessly. He faintly felt the hostility of the other party. He was a little surprised, but immediately added.
"Thank me?"
"Yes, thank you for saving us. I can't not repay you for saving my life."
Scarlet thought for a moment.
Babarn seemed a little nervous. He did not know why, but he always felt that he could not move freely in front of the other party. At first, he thought that it was because the other party was too much to his liking. But after spending some time together, he began to gradually feel that there seemed to be a strange temperament in the other party, faintly exuding a frightening aura.
Of course, he did not know that the blood of the dragon and the thunder god flowed in Scarlet's body at the same time. He vaguely felt that the Countess's handmaiden was a little unusual. He suddenly felt a little nervous and began to regret that he should not have agreed to work with those guys.
At this time, Scarlet finally recovered from her daze. She looked up at the surrounding cliffs and asked as if she was referring to something. "You said that you want to thank me. Is this how you thank me?"
The young man was slightly stunned.
But Scarlet had already picked up the halberd in her hand and pointed in all directions of the underground glacier. "These rats hiding in the corner, are they your companions?"
Babarn's face changed.
At the same time, the faces of the noble soldiers who were pointed out by the mountain girl did not look good. They awkwardly walked out from the shadows around them and looked at the girl with some surprise. Only the leader from before clapped and praised dryly. "This is really beyond our expectations. I didn't expect the young lady to be a real master."
Scarlet looked at these people quietly and frowned. But she was secretly prepared to be on guard. After all, she was a mercenary. Just by looking at the position of these people, she knew that they did not come with good intentions.
"Don't worry," the man continued. "We do want to thank the young lady. We hope that the young lady will come with us to Cruz as a guest. The Empire has always been hospitable. We will definitely treat you well."
Babarn quickly nodded. "Yes, we won't embarrass you. We just want to ask you for a favor."
"A favor?"
"Yes, beautiful lady. If you agree, I will personally ask His Majesty to restore your freedom. You will become a free citizen of Cruz. You will not have to bow down to anyone. Besides, with your ability, it is not impossible for you to become a noble of the Empire." Babarn explained.
But never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that he had said something wrong. In fact, just as he finished saying that he would let her regain her freedom, he saw that the eyes of the seemingly innocent mountain girl had already revealed a ferocious glint like that of a wild beast.
