Chapter six hundred and seventy-ninth sneak attack(1/2)
Although this god of death has become famous in the Holy Alliance recently, this is the first time Edward has truly seen the true face of this god of death.
To be honest, if you just look at the appearance, the killing god in front of you looks like a child of a big family at that time, with handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament.
I am afraid that no one would regard him as the murderer who single-handedly hunted down thousands of orcs and massacred the entire Golden Shield family residence.
But it turns out that this seemingly gentle young man is not only the ferocious god of death that people call him, but he also quietly killed nine White Flag Knights of the New Temple tonight and Marshall, who possesses the peak strength of the Black Flag.
More importantly, he almost single-handedly solved the plan for the new temple tonight and rescued the heirs and Adela of each holy city.
In addition, he was wounded and slashed with a sword in order to save Adela.
Such an evil young man, even Edward thought he could not compare with him when he was young.
Just when Edward was staring with complicated eyes and inexplicable amazement in his heart, Gervais had recovered from his previous murderous aura, then leaned over and took off a space ring from Marshall's finger, and put it into his arms.
.
Then he straightened up and looked at Edward with a slight smile.
After looking at each other for a moment, Gervais didn't say much, just put the Crimson Moon into the scabbard and prepared to leave.
Now that the matter has been resolved, he must be ready to leave. The time limit for the black kiwi fruit is running out. If he stays here any longer, he may be in danger.
When Edward saw that the young murderer was preparing to leave without saying a word, he glanced at the sword wound on his back. At this time, because the fighting had stopped, the blood from the wound had stopped. With the young murderer's strength,
Physically, it can't be considered a fatal injury.
So Edward didn't stop him after thinking for a moment. He just said after Gervais turned around: "I, the Sky City, owe you a favor. If you need it in the future, you can come up with something that any Sky City can do."
Require!"
After all, Edward had never been in contact with Gervais. He didn't know Gervais' true character. He only knew that the young man was decisive and courageous, so he didn't say any other words of thanks and directly gave Gervais a promise.
.
And such a promise is not a big one. Sky City is the number one holy city in the Holy Alliance. What Sky City can do is really unimaginable.
When Gervais heard Edward's promise, he paused for a moment, but he did not respond whether he would accept Edward's promise or not.
After a moment's pause, Gervais began to walk slowly toward the outside of the crowd.
Most of the New Temple members in the field have been killed. Only Netali is still resisting under the siege of the two Holy City Lords. However, it is obvious that he is just a grasshopper after the fall, and there is absolutely no way to escape tonight.
As for those monsters that suddenly went crazy before, they calmed down after Gervais took the purple kiwi fruit back to the system mall.
When Gervais walked out of the crowd, most of the people in the venue were watching him, even though everyone already knew that Gervais was the God of Death.
However, because of the action of rescuing all the young heirs, no one among the holy city lords said anything to stop him from leaving.
Not to mention that this young murderer was already extremely powerful, and they had also heard Edward's promise. If anyone wanted to take action against this murderer at this time, they would have to face Duke Edward.
"Gwei...wait!"
Just when Gervais was about to walk out of the crowd, Adela, who had been standing next to Johnson and staring closely at Gervais, reacted. When she saw a rather terrifying wound on Gervais's back, she ran away immediately
To Gervais.
"Adela, I should leave now! I'll come back to you when I have time. Happy birthday to you!"
When Gervais heard Adela's slightly crying words, he couldn't help but stop for a moment, turned around and said to Adela with a smile.
"You... don't walk. First... go to my manor to take care of your injuries. With my grandfather here, they will definitely not dare to deal with you!"
Adela came closer and saw that his back was wet with blood. Naturally, she was worried that Gervais would leave like this. Regardless of the gazes of hundreds of people, she asked Gervais intermittently.
"No need, Adela! My injury is not serious! I will write to you then!"
Seeing Adela's pitiful appearance, Gervais smiled slightly and said something to Adela in a very subtle tone.
I am very happy to be able to save this little girl Gervais tonight.
Speaking of which, the reason why Adela suffered like this was because he asked her to help sell the potion.
So when Edward made a promise earlier, Gervais neither agreed nor refused.
If nothing happens in the future, this promise will naturally not be used, but if something really difficult is encountered, Gervais will not be stubborn and will ask for help when it is time to ask for help.
"Can……"
Adela hesitated to speak, but finally stopped talking and watched Gervais turn around and continue to leave.
"careful!"
"careful!"
"Hulton, how dare you!"
But just when everyone thought that the God of Killing had left safely, and when Gervais was about to walk out of the crowd, suddenly a figure shining with intense light struck towards Gervais like a meteor.
And this figure is Hulton from the Golden Shield Family.
When Hulton knew that the young man in front of him turned out to be the God of Death, resentment immediately arose in his heart.
If it hadn't happened tonight, maybe after knowing Gervais's identity, Hulton would have found a way to kidnap Gervais and force him to find out the identity of the mysterious pharmacist.
But Gervais saved many heirs of the Holy City Lords tonight, which was enough to offset the things he had done in the past. It is impossible for these Holy City Lords to take action against this murderous god like before.
Therefore, Hulton decided that he must let this murderer die here tonight to avenge his brother and son.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to hunt down this murderer in the future. If this murderer is really allowed to grow, the Golden Shield family will never have a chance to take revenge.
"Die! Explosive Fire Slash!"
Facing the crowd's exclamations and Edward's angry shouts, Hulton not only did not stop, but even sped up a bit, hoping to kill the murderer with one blow.
While everyone was exclaiming, Gervais also noticed this sudden change.
Facing Hulton, whose strength was far superior to Marshall's, Gervais did not even dare to pull out his sword.
In an instant, he directly raised the Crimson Moon in his hand and blocked the direction of Hulton's attack along with the scabbard.
But Hulton's attack had been planned for a long time, and the Explosive Fire Slash was equivalent to his decisive blow.
Gervais simply blocked with his long sword and was unable to block its power. In the blink of an eye, Hulton rushed in front of Gervais with a terrifying power.
boom!
There was a clang in the field first, as Gervey blocked Edward's tenacity, but then there was another deafening roar.
In an instant, the figures of Gervais and Hulton were shrouded in smoke and dust.
"Gervais!"
Because Adela was closest to Gervais, she was also hit by the aftermath and was directly knocked away two or three meters. However, Adela did not pause after falling to the ground. She immediately stood up and wanted to move towards Gervais.
Rushed in the direction of Weiss.
"Adela, danger!"
Johnson originally wanted to rush towards Gervais to stop Hulton, but when he saw Adela rushing towards the field, he immediately changed his direction, grabbed Adela's wrist and dragged her to the
aside.
If another fight breaks out there later, Adela, a junior magician, will definitely not be able to stand it.
"Hulton, you deserve to die!"
Edward also rushed over at this time. Seeing that Hulton's blow not only hit Gervais, but also injured his granddaughter, Edward roared and rushed directly into the smoke.
Dang Dang Dang!
Then the sound of long swords clashing rapidly came from the smoke.
"Edward, although this god of death is kind to you, he has nothing to do with my Golden Shield family. Moreover, he killed my heir and my brother. What does it have to do with you if I kill him now to take revenge!"
As Edward and Hulton continued to fight, Hulton retreated while fighting, and then explained loudly to Edward!
Although he did not see the corpse of the God of Death, even the Peak Black Flag Knight could not block his full blow, so Hulton already regarded the God of Death as a dead person.
Now that the God of Death has been killed, Hulton naturally does not want to fight to the death with Edward, and he is not Edward's opponent.
"You deserve to die!"
How could Edward listen to Hulton's explanation? His aura was so strong that his long sword kept attacking Hulton with fierce sword light.
Just a moment ago, I told the God of Death that I could make any promise to myself that the City in the Sky could fulfill. In fact, this was actually a disguised expression of my intention to protect the God of Death.
But the next moment, Hulton suddenly attacked the murderous young man in front of him, and even injured his granddaughter. This completely showed that he did not take the City in the Sky seriously.
"Duke Edward, do you want to start a war with our Golden Shield family?"
After all, Hulton was one generation behind Edward in strength. Only the old Duke of the Golden Shield family was as strong as Edward.
In just a moment, Hulton was already somewhat unable to parry under Edward's fierce attack.
Seeing that Edward still didn't stop, Hulton began to threaten.
"So what if we start a war! You are not worthy of talking to me about starting a war. If you want to start a war, call your father!"
Edward snorted disdainfully, and the sword in his hand became even sharper.
puff!
Finally, Hulton was tired of parrying and his figure slowed down by half a minute. The wrist holding the long sword was numb from the shock. The palm holding the sword hilt was directly cut by Edward, and his two fingers fell off with the long sword.
