The ancient stone pillars and gray walls continued to extend forward in front of Duan Qing, and finally began to become damaged and messy as he stepped onto the next upward step. The obvious traces of battle also began to get worse as he approached.
Hair appeared frequently on the corridor. As the burn marks gradually increased, several skeletons lying around the steps began to appear one by one in Duan Qing's field of vision. The skeletons that had lost their flesh and blood were lying or falling.
The earth was scattered everywhere in the passage that Duan Qing gradually penetrated, and their tragic endings explained the brutality of the final battle that took place here.
With Duan Qing's eyes, he could still clearly distinguish the common points of these corpses - each corpse had a cut mark that could penetrate into the bone. It seemed that it had withstood the impact of a sword-type weapon at the last moment of its life.
Killed by direct attack.
"So many corpses..."
The pace that had never stopped finally paused for a moment as the next door appeared. Duan Qing's eyes then fell on the magic tools scattered on the ground beside a certain corpse: "And they are all from the era of the Magic Empire.
The magician... did you kill all the resisters by yourself?"
"Flea?"
The rumbling sound of boulders rubbing against each other was accompanied by some dust falling and suddenly spread forward. The last two stone doors blocking the passage were smashed to both sides by brute force, echoing in the dark air.
In the scene where the bones lying on the ground were violently knocked to both sides, streaks of sunlight unique to the outside world also appeared in front of Duan Qing. After slightly cleaning up the ground covered with bones in front of him, Duan Qing, who was in ragged clothes,
Then he stepped into this scene, which was like walking out of the building. After careful confirmation for a period of time, he discovered above his head that this area was not flooded by strong winds: "...So that's it.
Windshield?”
"Have you already developed such a high-end thing a thousand years ago?"
Basking in the sunshine, he walked to the edge of this area. His hand then touched the transparent light curtain, and then followed the direction of the ripples that rippled on the surface of the airtight light curtain and found the hall that belonged to it.
Where the light curtain generator is located, black blood that has dried for thousands of years is now scattered around the leaf-shaped devices, spreading outwards along with the corpses of countless magicians who protected those devices lying nearby.
Duan Qing, who had stepped over the corpses, then bent down and picked up a piece of bloody scale armor scattered among the pile of bones: "With so much manpower... the final result is this."
A piece of armor leaf?”
"Why are you so obsessed with protecting this device?"
He looked up at the protective shield generator in front of him that was still working, and his eyes fell on a sword mark deeply embedded in it: "Why... did you give up in the end?"
Reaching out to touch the direction of the sword mark, Duan Qing turned his eyes to the exit on the other side of the hall. His eyes that gradually became serious seemed to have seen a certain empress pull out with force at that moment.
He grabbed the long sword in front of him and slashed it hard on the last door blocking his front. The tearing sword marks then appeared along Duan Qing's line of sight on the other side of the square.
In the center of the door, the ferocious surface and scattered skeletons interpreted the final outcome of the battle. After looking around again, he followed the sword mark and came to the front of the door covered with mountains of bones. His finger fell on it again.
Next to the tearing sword mark, a certain mark was engraved on the edge of the bloody handprint: "..."
"Perhaps the protective shield at that time was not as big as it seems now, right?"
He retracted his hand, and then stepped in according to the path forward shown by the bloody handprint: "This is your last line of defense, that's why there are so many bones piled here..."
"The Great Emperor is indeed the Great Emperor."
With the sound of broken stones falling, he raised the Oknos Stone in his hand, and then shined the emerald green light that was still used for illumination into the vast hall behind the stone door.
The resonance sound unique to magic then sensed the emerald-green radiance, with its own slight light appearing in every direction where it was buried. At the same time, the entire hall, which was originally pitch black, seemed to be charged with energy.
The light-sensing circuit generally lit up: "...Hello."
"Lord Patriarch."
The arc-shaped steps, the dark green floor that spreads all around, the rows of stone chairs neatly arranged on both sides, and the throne-like high platform in the center surrounded by those stone chairs - along with those
The unknown devices in the hall were activated one after another, and a palace like a royal palace was displayed in front of Duan Qing. The dusty and dark decorations and carvings due to the age could not conceal the grandeur of this place, nor could it conceal the majesty of this place.
The unique mystery and power of the distinctive magic runes engraved on the backs of those stone chairs were covered in the dust. Standing quietly for a long time, Duan Qing finally turned his gaze from those flag-like
He retracted the magic runes that lit up one by one, and then passed through the piles of scattered bones slumped on their seats with his low eyes, and landed on the throne with bones in the center.
: "Although it's dilapidated like this, your clothes look a little more gorgeous than theirs, and with this... uh, unique crown on your head, you... should be from the Oklite family.
Clan leader, right?"
"Let me see..." Without any respect for the deceased, he walked up to the high platform and slowly squatted in front of the skeleton: "There is no damage to the bones in the whole body, and there is no damage to the skull, let alone
It's magic, there's not even a sign of poisoning..."
"How did you die?" He murmured to himself: "You must be able to take it calmly when Emperor Frey hits you..."
"Is there any way to protect you?"
He raised his head and looked above the throne involuntarily. His ever-expanding vision, together with the gradually expanding gaps engraved on the wall behind the hall, converged on the hilt of a pitch-black long sword.
The huge, irregular cracks are centered on the sword hilt embedded in the center of the wall, extending from deep to shallow towards the end of the darkness beyond the reach of the field of vision. The flickering energy radiance is also gradually increasing with the brightness of the surroundings.
, vaguely appeared in the walls of the hall that were dimly illuminated from high in the sky: "That is... what?"
Boom.
The abnormal sound of bones suddenly appeared at the seat in front of Duan Qing as he took two steps back. It was the sound made when the head of the huge skeleton suddenly rolled from the corpse to the ground. He lowered his head.
He then slowly picked up the skull, and his eyes gradually focused on the very smooth and flat section of the neck below. After rubbing the section with his fingers for a while, he turned to look at the lost skull on the throne.
At the neck of the corpse where the corresponding part was cut, a neat incision seemed to meet his expectations, quietly displayed on the top of the dense white bones: "...can cut off an entire head.
Come down, and perfectly preserve the swordsmanship on it...heh."
"I admire you, Your Majesty the Queen."
The figure that jumped up with all its strength mixed with the sound of breaking through the air appeared above the high platform in the center of the hall. It jumped straight towards the place where the hilt of the sword was suspended in mid-air. The right amount of power then also pushed Duan Qing's
The body was sent to the front of the dark sword hilt, accompanied by Duan Qing's serious eyes that gradually became dignified. He stretched out his hand to hold the end of the sword hilt, and Duan Qing, who had lost his upward momentum, then hung on the piece of
In the center of the huge cracks scattered in the back wall of the hall, he maintained a hanging posture with one hand and then swayed back and forth in a daze, as if he suddenly saw something extremely shocking: "Huh...
…”
"drink!"
A loud shout after taking a deep breath spread to all corners of the entire hall, and at the same time, the man hanging in the air pulled out the black sword from the wall, and the bloody radiance followed
The bursting rubble flashed in the air in the center of the crack for a moment, and then fell towards the far side of the hall as Duan Qing kicked off the wall. Several brilliant sparks were drawn on the ground, and they tumbled in the air.
After a long time, he finally rolled down to the doorway where he broke into the hall in an extremely embarrassed posture. Then, taking the dust and broken bones on his body, he pulled the heavy iron sword with huge inertia from him.
He was dragged out of his arms.

"……call."
Weighing the heavy long sword with his hand again, Duan Qing involuntarily exhaled a heavy breath, and then his lowered eyes gradually raised along the scene of the hall, and finally stopped at the area spread all over the place.
In the middle of the huge crack on the high wall opposite the main hall, a ray of light followed the hole created by the destruction on the side of the main hall above his head, shining on this ancient and desolate end point of the war. He watched all this quietly.
Duan Qing then lifted up the heavy sword in his hand and jumped out again towards the high space where the light shined.
"That day... it was probably like this."
Following the hole that was obviously cut by the sword energy, Duan Qing, who followed the light to find it, then came to the high outer wall above the hall, and then braved the howling wind and cold air to climb high enough to overlook the
Above the main hall in the entire front half of the Sky City, the rising sun now shone in front of Duan Qing with its dazzling brilliance. At the same time, it also illuminated the blood appearing on the blade of the sword in his hand more clearly.
, Duan Qing, feeling the ferocious aura coming from this heavy sword, took a deep breath, and then sat down: "You defeated the Sky City and defeated the last hope of the entire Magic Empire.
You are about to become an unprecedented strong man and the emperor of the entire world..."
"You must be unable to continue fighting with this long sword like this."
There seemed to be a scene in front of him of that blood-red figure standing here empty-handed. He breathed out the still cold winter wind: "Completely destroy the power source here, and abandon your past at the same time... You are really a great person."
A woman, Lord Fleur."
He raised his hand and used the blood-colored sword to cover the sunlight in front of him. Then, as if in response to his movements, a strong vibration appeared in the hall below him. A series of emerald green lights.
Then the cracks where he had just pulled out the long sword suddenly spurted out, quickly causing the entire city in the sky to shake continuously. The surrounding magic pipelines and devices were continuously ignited along the city. Sitting in the scene,
Duan Qing, who was on the spot, said goodbye, slowly waving his arms to the air next to him: "If there is a chance, I really want to have a good conversation with you, but it's a pity..."
"I am also the one who is about to give up everything."
He stood up and looked at the far end of the city under the sunlight. A still deep light pillar now appeared far away in the sky like a black hole that sucked up everything, driving the eyes of countless players to the sky.
The direction of the city is slowly approaching: "So...goodbye."
"The former king." (To be continued)
