Babarn felt Scarlet suddenly disappear in front of him. He immediately reacted. She did not disappear, but the mountain girl had passed him and circled behind him. But she was too fast. His eyes widened slightly, and he turned his head stiffly, only to see a fiery red afterimage in the corner of his eye. It was the end of a long ponytail.
Behind Viscount Babarn, the Kirrlutzian noble who had been leading the agitation saw this scene more clearly. In his eyes, the mountain girl was still negotiating with Babarn a moment ago, but suddenly, she had moved away from the latter by a body's length. His left foot stepped lightly on the ground, his whole body tilted to the same side, the blade of the spear in his hand was one step ahead, and a cold light flashed. The girl looked up and stared at him, a circle of golden flames seemed to be burning from the inside out. Her crimson ponytail danced with her movements, like a dancing feather scarf.
In the blink of an eye, the fire dragon was already in front of him.
Not good!
The Cruz noble's hair stood on end, and he subconsciously raised the long sword in his hand.
Clang!
A line of sparks crossed, and the Kirrlutzian noble staggered back. The force from the spear was so great that he had to hold his sword with both hands to block it, but in the same way, this also made him lose the chance to fight back. The Cruz noble was covered in cold sweat, and there was only one thought in his mind: So fast! Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that this seemingly weak and introverted girl would attack him without saying a word. And her target wasn't Babarn, but him. How did she see through it? He looked at the sword in his hand with lingering fear, and there was a deep cut on the blade.
The Cruz noble's hands were shaking.
Scarlet immediately retreated when her attack missed. She frowned slightly. She originally wanted to take the leader by surprise, but she didn't expect the other party to react so quickly. The Kirrlutzian soldiers were indeed worthy of their reputation.
"Stop her!" Only then did someone react.
To be able to survive the previous fall under the ice, all the survivors were at least of the Gold level. Even the leading noble and Viscount Babarn had the same Elemental Awakening strength as Scarlet, because they did not feel threatened at first. Seven or eight people against one, and the opponent was a woman, no matter how they thought about it, it was not dangerous at all.
But they never thought that Scarlet was no longer a human in the simple sense. To be precise, her bloodline had long surpassed the Black Iron generation.
The Cruz nobles roared in unison, and at the same time, the long swords in their hands flashed into a cold light, blocking Scarlet's retreat from all directions. Only then did people remember that they were not only of outstanding swordsmen, but also well-trained soldiers. But unfortunately, their opponent was Scarlet. The mountain girl had arguably the most outstanding and unique swordsmanship training partner in the world. Brando was familiar with the Cruz, Erouine, Fanzin, and even the undead of Madara, the wind elves of Saint-ausol, each of the most mainstream swordsmanship in this era.
Even more than that, he had a lot of ways to deal with each swordsmanship.
As soon as the Cruz noble soldiers moved, Scarlet had already reacted. She stepped lightly on the ground while retreating quickly, and with one foot as an axis, she turned around, and the spear in her hand had already drawn a semicircle, forcing the Cruz nobles who were approaching from the right to retreat. At the same time, the girl had already lowered her center of gravity, and with the other foot on the ground, she suddenly burst out from the ground, shooting forward like a sharp arrow.
She chose the direction of the left wing, where the encirclement was weaker. There were only three swordsmen in that direction, and one of them was only at the beginning of the Gold level.
And her target happened to be this person.
The man was already stunned. The speed of the mountain girl's dash had exceeded everyone's expectations, and was at least three times faster than the peak of the Gold level! Every time Scarlet's foot touched the ground, a long arc of electricity would be drawn out. In the eyes of outsiders, it was as if a bolt of lightning was leaping continuously on the ground. The bright electric light continued to bend, as if it was splitting the darkness, and in an instant, she had already arrived in front of the Cruz noble.
In the man's vision, only the bright golden flames in the girl's eyes were left.
The spear pierced through his chest, and the Cruz noble did not have time to let out a scream of pain before it was stuck in his throat. Blood gushed out from his lungs, turning into a gurgling sound, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood foam. The girl pressed a hand on his chest and pushed, and the guy's body was thrown out like a tattered rag doll.
"She's hiding her strength!"
The head of the nobles was buzzing in his head.
"No, no, this is definitely not the power of Elemental Activation. That's two levels of existence. This little girl's strength is still at the Gold level, but why is there such a huge difference … "
He could not figure it out no matter how hard he racked his brain, and did not think of the dragon race at all. Because if Scarlet was a dragon, first of all, she would never be a servant of humans, and secondly, she would not have to play a game of cat and mouse with them here. Unfortunately, no one would have thought that Scarlet's current situation was a result of a conspiracy and an unexpected prank.
Scarlet had already torn the line of defense, but she was still not out of danger. She looked back and saw that the Cruz noble was still approaching, and one on the left and one on the right were the two noble soldiers she had left behind, and the one chasing after her was the leader. She simply raised her left hand, her fingers slightly closed, and made a strangling gesture. Everyone saw that in an instant, Scarlet's left arm seemed to have turned into pure energy, and turned into a blazing platinum color. Arcs of electricity surrounded her arm, and then suddenly, with a sizzling sound, shot towards the three of them. "Elemental Materialization!" The noble soldier on the left was shocked, and quickly rolled to the side to avoid the attack.
But his companion was not so lucky, and was directly hit in the chest by the electric arrow. He spat out a mouthful of blood and flew back, crashing into the crowd. The people behind hurriedly helped him up, and found that the guy's breastplate had been penetrated and melted, and the soft tissue behind had been completely carbonized. His eyes were wide open, and his eyes were staring unfocused at the top of the hole. Apparently, he had gone to see Martha.
The leader of the nobles was shocked and angry, and he slashed the lightning with his sword. His sword was wrapped in orange lines of the Law, and it tore the lightning apart like cotton wool, dissipating into countless arcs of electricity.
At this time, Scarlet no longer held back, and her whole body was wrapped in electric arcs, as if half of her body had turned into blazing white lightning. Her speed was further increased to a level that the Cruz nobles had never imagined in their lives. It was like a beam of light in the dark, and there was no stopping it. The nobles looked at this scene, stunned. It was not that they had never seen this kind of skill before, but it was a special skill of the Lightning Element and the Air Element. How could it appear on a human? Even if it was the Law of Lightning, it only allowed humans to control lightning. How could she turn it into lightning? Everything in front of them was simply subverting their understanding of the Law.
The glaring lightning had already drawn a beautiful arc in the darkness.
In fact, semi-elementization was an ability that Scarlet had accidentally mastered after entering the Elemental Awakening. According to Brando, this ability itself was not something that could be found, and generally only existed in those races that were close to the elements. Very few humans could obtain this ability. He suspected that the high tolerance of the dragon blood in Scarlet's body further catalyzed the power of the Thunder God's blood, and gave Scarlet a part of the elemental bloodline. It was just that Scarlet did not have the same attribute panel as him, or he would have seen it in the Racial Talent column.
Unfortunately, semi-elementization required a certain amount of time, or she could have used this ability to break through the encirclement from the beginning.
"Why is she turning back!" The leader of the nobles looked at the long arc in the dark in surprise.
"She's coming to fight us!"
"Damn it, Babarn, you've pissed her off, she's going to kill us!" Cruz's noble soldiers suddenly panicked and shouted. They thought they were just dealing with a little girl, but in the blink of an eye, the little girl had turned into a big bad wolf with fangs, and they had become Little Red Riding Hood. The difference in status was too great, and they could not accept it for a while.
"Shut up!" Babarn was also sweating profusely. He still had a good impression of Scarlet, and the fact that she was so powerful made him both surprised and happy. He was surprised that today's battle would end, and happy that he was more and more satisfied with this mountain girl. However, he still couldn't figure out what he had said that had angered the other party. Although his words were somewhat threatening, it wasn't as if they couldn't be accepted.
How could a maid have such a bad temper? How could the count stand it?
But at least Babarn was not wrong about one thing, Scarlet was completely enraged. She moved forward in her lightning form, and shot straight into the crowd. The girl's pointed face had completely turned into an energy body similar to the 'deified Ko Hua', and her hair and eyebrows were like platinum electric beams dancing in the wind, especially her long ponytail, which looked amazingly beautiful. Scarlet's brows were deeply furrowed, and her golden eyes were burning with anger. There was only one thought in her mind at the moment: Kill these annoying people!
Since the disbandment of the Grey Wolves Mercenaries, Scarlet almost all of her thoughts were placed on protecting her remaining companions. Since most of them joined and became Brando's private army, she also chose to silently follow the somewhat unfamiliar young noble. And the mountain girl, Scarlet of the Grey Wolves Mercenaries, from that moment on, in fact, had passed away, and no longer existed in this world. She began to become silent, and practiced her combat skills all day long, or in a daze, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Because even she did not understand what was going on in her mind.
Perhaps she was thinking about the strange words of the count, who sometimes did not seem like a noble, but sometimes was more noble than all the other nobles.
To control one's own destiny, how could one control it? Day after day, she made herself colder, better at fighting, and less trusting of others, as if she was a machine, but her heart became more and more fragile. Sometimes she even felt that she was walking alone in the wilderness, standing alone. When she looked around, the original world seemed to have collapsed.
More than once, Scarlet shed tears alone in the night, sobbing softly. Everything that had happened in the past ten years was like a stretched shadow of a nightmare, and she could not get rid of it.
But until that day, when the strange count handed the Golden Apple to her, and told her that no matter what, he would not give up on her, and in that dark dream, there was finally a ray of warm light. It was something that even Lord Makarov, Lord Fleetwood, and everyone who betrayed the Grey Wolves Mercenaries wanted, but the count just gave it to her because of a promise.
She was not good with words, and she did not know how to repay him. She just wanted to be by his side silently. Because of this, she became even more silent. Until today, when these disgusting Cruz people in front of her wanted to destroy her only hope, her anger had completely drowned all of her rationality.
These people must die.
Two screams, a noble soldier's head fell to the ground, and another soldier screamed and held his arm. Below his wrist, it was already charred black, and the brittle bones seemed to be unable to bear the weight of the longsword. The falling longsword broke his arm, and it turned into black powder and fell to the ground together.
The leader of the nobles was sweating profusely, and he turned back to Babarn and shouted, "Babarn, if you don't do something, there will be no end to this!"
Babarn cursed silently, thinking that the current situation was also because of this guy. He secretly regretted it. Originally, these people's conspiracy had nothing to do with him, but he did want to "invite" this mountain girl back to the Kirrlutz Empire as a "guest". He felt that it was love at first sight, and he wanted to make her his woman no matter what, but he never dreamed that things would develop to this point.
He sighed, and had to take out a folded crossbow from his sleeve. At this point, he had no choice but to use this thing.
He loaded the crossbow and raised it.
At this time, Scarlet turned into a flash of lightning and crossed the crowd of Cruz nobles. Babarn immediately turned and aimed in that direction. He did not aim accurately, of course, with Scarlet's current speed, there was no point in aiming accurately. The Viscount muttered something, and the pattern on the crossbow in his hand suddenly lit up one by one. In The Amber Sword, magic weapons that can be activated by themselves must be Silver items of ancient grade or above, but this crossbow was not just that. In fact, it was a big deal. If Brando was here, he would definitely recognize the identity of this crossbow, and further recognize Babarn's identity. Unfortunately, Scarlet was not Brando, and the girl was still unaware at this moment.
A silver light pierced through the darkness.
Scarlet suddenly felt a huge force coming from behind, and the severe pain almost instantly broke her semi-elemental state. The lightning wrapped around her suddenly exploded, forming a dazzling electric spark. The mountain girl fell forward like a kite with a broken string, and hit the ice hard. Although she immediately gritted her teeth and got up, everyone saw that the crossbow bolt was stuck in her waist. The girl gritted her teeth, covered the place with one hand, and used the other hand to support her body with the spear. She was trembling so much that she could barely stand.
The noble soldiers cheered in unison.
Scarlet's vision turned black. Of course, she heard the cheers, although the sound seemed to come from the sky, but what made her feel even colder was that the noble soldiers had already surrounded her from the left and right. She gasped softly, and felt a salty taste in her mouth, but she still subconsciously clenched her teeth and clenched the spear in her hand.

"Those pipes should be for Kou … Ko Hua's' sister 'to channel magic, we should find a way to help the count and the others cut off those pipes." Miss Scholar was lying on the edge of the ice wall, staring at the battle below, but when she said this, she was a little concerned about the expression of Ko Hua beside them. The latter smiled at her, indicating that it was nothing. After getting the nod, Shido was relieved and asked, "Your Royal Highness, do you have any ideas?"
Lenarette nodded, he glanced down, although his face was still expressionless, "The level of the battle below is not something we can get involved in. If we go down, we will only be a burden to teacher and Count Tónigel. Fortunately, we don't need to go down to participate in the battle. I have a bow, Shido, you can still use magic. Let's do it before that woman notices us. "
With that said, His Royal Highness also glanced at Brando below, with a rare look of envy in his eyes. He was slightly older than Brando, but the other's strength was really not something to be jealous of.
A twenty-year-old Knight of the Holy Cathedral, how shocking it would be if word got out. Fortunately, the higher-ups of the two countries who knew about this were actually only the core figures. The Holy Cathedral of Fire should be very clear about the news contained in this information, and they would not spread it casually. After all, the other party was not Cruz's people, but this was also the most unfortunate part. He now slightly understood Veronica's thoughts.
But fortunately, this Count Tónigel had a good relationship with them. He was nominally Veronica's student, and his political orientation was also supported by the Palucci family. Brando was close to Veronica, so he was naturally a friend of his faction.
"What about me?" Haruze asked.
"You stay here and help us keep an eye on the surroundings," Lerenat replied.
"Huh?"
The little prince opened his mouth wide, and he hurriedly shook his head vigorously, "T … teacher is still fighting down there, how can I just stand by and watch!"
"This is not standing by and watching, His Royal Highness is right. Little prince, you have to keep an eye on this time, don't let those guys from All For One guys make trouble behind us," a voice suddenly came from the ice cave behind them, "You don't think we're the only ones down here, do you?"
Prince Haruze's eyes lit up slightly, and he turned back in surprise and shouted, "Mr. The Shire!"
Then he froze for a moment, and added, "Sister Hipamira!"
Coming out from behind the ice cave were two of Brando's three Planeswalker summons.
