Episode 8, Degang and Going to the Mibu Icefield in the Final - Part 1
"Are you here to challenge Wigginton? He is a warrior with the title of knight. Go back, you will die!"
"Thank you for reminding me! Even if you are really going to die, you have to fight to know it!"
Without paying much attention to the person at the door, Rayleigh pushed the door directly and entered.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Wigginton had put on his armor and was standing in front of the table, stroking the purple-red sword in his hand.
"Are you challenging me for that princess?"
Without turning around, Wigginton turned his back to Raleigh and asked calmly.
Rayleigh did not answer, but took out the sword he just bought yesterday and put up a large shield. His attitude was self-evident.
"Oh! It does look like there are two parts,"
Listening to the movement behind him, Wigginton turned around, looked at Raleigh, said something, and then looked around again.
After observing around, he did not see Angelo in this room. Wigginton breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, and then revealed a disdainful tone and said with a sneer:
"Your companion didn't come with you? Do you think you can defeat me on your own? You are so arrogant!"
After saying that, Wigginton raised his sword high and then thrust it into the ground. The surrounding space suddenly changed...
Rayleigh had no intention of stopping Wigginton. After all, in the space rift, the damage the demon could cause was limited.
For Wigginton, fighting in the space rift can at least give the two of them an advantageous condition without being affected by the outside world, and this is also to prevent the guy named Angelo from making a sneak attack...
Looking at the huge demon god that was more than eighty meters tall in front of him, Rayleigh knew clearly that this was the most powerful opponent he had ever encountered so far.
Without hesitation, a trace of electric sparks flashed across the lightning crown on Rayleigh's forehead, and then a huge demon nearly 60 meters tall appeared in the crack in space. It was Shining Maru.
I saw streaks of bright luster flashing on Shining Maru's azure outer armor. He held a large blue and white shield in his left hand, and held an enlarged version of the Blade Sword tightly in his right hand...
The same goes for the Weijin Shield. On the purple-red outer armor, the big sword in his right hand is almost as tall as him. The tiny shield in his left hand is definitely not as simple as it looks...
Two huge demons stood facing each other, a murderous aura spread between them, and the battle was about to break out.
"boom!"
There was a roar, and Wigginton instantly jumped into the sky. His extremely tall body did not look as slow as expected.
I saw Wigginton in mid-air instantly falling in front of Shining Maru. Before Rayleigh had time to react, he raised his sword and stabbed directly.
The ear-piercing sonic boom sounded all around, and Rayleigh, who had no time to react, could only wave the large shield in his left hand to block the blow.
Although it looked like it was blocked, Rayleigh knew clearly in his heart that Shining Maru was at a disadvantage in the collision with the opponent, and his body was somewhat damaged.
I absolutely can't go head-to-head with the opponent. I have to give full play to my advantages. If that's the case, then I have to compete in speed. Please! Shining Maru!
Rayleigh thought in his mind, and the movement of his hand was not slow. After dodging the second sword that Wigginton was chasing after him,
I saw the Shining Pill turn into a blue light and shadow instantly, and the lightning-like speed shocked Wigginton, who had always had the upper hand.
He jumped forward subconsciously, and after dodging the sword thrust from behind by Shining Maru, Wigginton turned around, then jumped a few times, and came directly behind Shining Maru, seizing the gap when the opponent turned around, and
The sword stabbed Shiningmaru's chest...
If it is stabbed this time, the Shining Pill will definitely explode on the spot even if it has the blessing of the Seven Dragon Gods.
Rayleigh knew this, and Wigginton knew it even more. Therefore, at the moment when Wigginton thought the overall situation was certain, the feeling coming from his hand made the other party's soul tremble:
"This is! Phantom! So fast! No, behind..."
When Wigginton noticed this, it was already too late. Shining Pill appeared behind him in an instant. Without giving Wigginton time to dodge, he stabbed out with his sword, and a buzzing sound of hitting steel resounded around him.
And Wigginton was even stabbed backwards by the sword,
Looking at the flaws exposed in many directions, Shining Pill did not stop, but pressed forward step by step, stabbing out sword after sword. The extremely powerful force made Wigginton keep going backwards...
Damn! If I continue like this, I will lose. I must seize the opportunity, and then...
While thinking in his mind, Wigginton kept avoiding the opponent's pursuit. At this moment, a flaw quietly appeared in Shining Maru.
Without thinking much, Wigginton raised the shield in his left hand, then pushed it forward, instantly blocking the sword thrust from Shining Maru...
Everyone should have heard the story of (spear and shield), and the two sides fighting now have formed a "spear and shield" scene...
"Creak! Crack!"
The sound of metal friction made the scalps of both warring parties numb, but now the two of them have entered a scene where they cannot retreat at all. There is a chance of survival if you take a step forward, but you will definitely die if you take a step back...
The two knew this very well, so they began to compete with each other for the purest strength.
"Ka~cha!"
A slight crack appeared on the shield. Seeing this, Rayleigh's operator Shining Maru quickly increased his power. The next moment...
The shield shattered instantly, and it contained the strongest blow in Rayleigh's life, instantly hitting Wigginton in front of him.
The blade of the sword came out of the body, and Shining Pill suddenly lifted up. Wigginton's huge body was lifted into the air.
Ignoring the other party's begging for mercy, Shiningmaru raised his sword high, and with the fire magic activated by Rayleigh, extremely raging flames appeared out of thin air in an instant, covering Shiningmaru's body.
Then, under the guidance of Rayleigh, all the raging flames were directed to the blade of the sword, accompanied by Rayleigh's roar:
"Wigginton, you held the King of the Rainbow Kingdom hostage and threatened Her Royal Highness the Princess. What is even more intolerable is your indiscriminate killing of innocent people. Now,~"
With a roar, bright and dazzling electric sparks suddenly appeared around the Shining Pill. Then, at the moment when the Weijin Shield was about to land, Rayleigh's last roar came from the Shining Pill:
"~Go to hell with regret! Ah... Flame Thunder God Sword~~"
The next moment, Shining Maru, holding the sword high, turned into a bolt of lightning, instantly passing through Wigginton's body. In the sound of explosions, Shining Maru turned into light spots all over the sky and disappeared, leaving only one person wearing lightning on his head.
The young man with a crown of hair stands proudly...
"You're back. It seems you benefited a lot from this battle!"
Looking at Rayleigh walking in front of him and the fluctuating strength on his body, Angelo said teasingly.
Faced with Angelo's joke, Reilly smiled bitterly and replied to the question:
"Let's go to the palace and tell the king the good news!"
"Oh! Zhen Zhenzhen! Can't wait to see your beautiful princess? Hahaha! Okay, no more joking, let's go!"
With that said, the two walked side by side to the palace.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw the prince and princess waiting in the hall. When she saw Rayleigh and Angelo walking side by side, the princess smiled, then walked quickly to Rayleigh, took each other's hands, and looked at each other.
Said with a smile:
"Mr. Reilly, thank you for everything you have done for the Rainbow Nation. We will always remember you!"
After saying that, with Rayleigh's unsteady expression on his face, the princess stood up on tiptoes and kissed Rayleigh's cheek...
Watching the interaction between the two, Angelo quickly took two steps back and then said something teasingly:
"Wow! Wow! It seems like we're not engaged yet..."
As he said that, looking at Rayleigh's resentful eyes, as if realizing his mistake, Angelo quickly shut up...
Then, the two passed through the hall and walked into the inner courtyard of the palace. The king and the guards hurriedly greeted them and said:
"Mr. Reilly, in order to thank you for everything you have done for the Rainbow Kingdom, I will give you the magic book of power. In addition, I have a personal request. Can you marry my daughter?"
After saying that, the king looked at Rayleigh expectantly.
The moment Rayleigh was about to agree, he hesitated because some memories from the past appeared in his mind...
Looking at Rayleigh who was in a state of hesitation beside him, Angelo quickly touched him with his arm and whispered:
"Rayleigh! Rayleigh, please agree, don't you like the princess very much? It doesn't matter, just agree first!"
"Okay, but I still have my mission, maybe..."
Perhaps seeing Rayleigh's concerns, the king smiled and then said something unexpected:
"It doesn't matter. I know you still have a mission to complete. After the journey is over, I will hold a wedding for you!"
After saying that, he handed the magic book of power in his arms to the two of them.
After the two took the magic book, they left the inner courtyard of the palace. When they entered the hall, Rayleigh handed the magic book to Angelo, then walked to the princess and said goodbye:
"Your Highness Princess! I believe it won't be long before I come back!"
"It's okay! I will always be waiting for you, Rayleigh. I wish you a happy journey!"
After saying that, the two hugged each other.
Looking at this scene, Angelo suddenly thought of Nero and Ji Liye for some reason...
This princess gives me the same feeling as Gilliam. Even their personalities are not much different. That is to say, Nero met Gilliam first. Oh my God, what on earth was I thinking!
Shaking his head and suppressing the thoughts in his mind, Angelo reached behind his back, took out his unused cell phone that was hidden in his cloak, and took a photo of the two people embracing each other.
.
Looking at the photo of Rayleigh and the princess embracing on his phone, Angelo swiped his thumb and saw the family photo that he had always planned to use as the lock screen on his phone...
"What are you looking at! Let's go!"
Reilly's words rang in Angelo's ears, interrupting his thoughts. The latter sighed, and then the two of them left side by side...
On the way...
"You don't look very happy? Are you homesick?"
Seeing Angelo's sad face, Riley asked with concern.
Angelo shook his head and sighed instead of answering.
Do I miss home? Maybe I do. After all, I didn’t tell anyone about it this time, and...
Forget it, let's defeat that guy as soon as possible and go back as soon as possible.
After thinking about it, Angelo suddenly said with a complicated expression:
"Rayleigh, do you know? In fact, I came here not to defeat some demon king, but to find powerful power. My childhood experience told me,
Without power, in some unstoppable things, you can do nothing but be a lamb to be slaughtered; I just met you later, alas~"
As he spoke, Angelo sighed, stopped, looked at Reilly, and added:
"Of course, you said before that I was homesick. I can't tell you. After all, people like me can only move forward and have no retreat. As for my family, I don't want to one day, when danger comes, I just
Can watch with open eyes,
So, even if I really miss my family, at least I will try my best to do it well before this thing is completed!"
After speaking, Angelo shook his head and showed a bitter smile. He didn't know what he was laughing at.
After listening to what Angelo said, Rayleigh was silent for a while and comforted:
"I don't know why you said these things. Maybe it has something to do with your experience. I don't think you would say it even if I asked, right?"
Seeing that Angelo didn't answer, but rolled his eyes, Reilly smiled bitterly and said again:
"Although that's what I said, I still have to kill that guy right now, but Angelo, I promise, if you still want to continue looking for power after this, I will go find it with you. After all, in this world,
You are my only friend!"
“…”
After listening to Reilly's words, Angelo was silent for a long time, suppressing the emotions in his heart, and said with a smile:
"Yes, since we are friends, then I won't say thank you!"
"You're the only one who can say that? Oh, wait, isn't that the man we met before? Why doesn't he leave yet? Angelo, let's go over and take a look!"
As soon as he replied, Rayleigh, who was walking to the entrance of the castle, suddenly saw the person he met before, so after mentioning it, the two of them hurried there.
"Ah! Is it you? I heard that you defeated Wigginton. If you are so powerful, wouldn't you be able to even go to the Icefield Tower?"
When the man saw Angelo and Reilly coming over, he quickly greeted them warmly and then said something.
"Tower of Ice?"
After Rayleigh muttered subconsciously, he glanced at Angelo. After remembering the information he had obtained from someone in the merchant village, he turned around and asked:
"By the way, didn't your companion say he wants to go back to the Merchant Village with you? Why haven't you set off yet?"
Reilly's words stunned the other person for a moment. After reacting, the person sighed and then complained:
"It's not because of Said Steel. His men have been harassing back and forth between the Rainbow Kingdom and the Merchant Village. We don't have a demon. If we go back rashly, we will definitely be killed by them on the road!"
After saying that, he sighed worriedly.
And Angelo continued what the other person said:
"I've heard of that Said Steel before. Now I think it's time for us to kill it. Then we can go directly to the ice sheet. However, I don't know if it will be smooth sailing on both sides? Rayleigh, do you know?
"
After listening to Angelo's words, Reilly nodded and replied:
"Sedgang's lair is in the northernmost part of the prairie. You need to go through the cave to the ice field. The distance is about the same. But if we go now, there is no need to come back. I will be fine when I get there. How about you?"
"If it's okay for you, of course I'm okay too. You have just experienced a big war. Well, depending on the weather, it's already too late. We'd better go to the hotel to rest for a night, and then we'll go there.
Otherwise I’m worried you’ll have problems on the road!”
After speaking, without giving Reilly a chance to refute, Angelo went straight to the hotel.
Looking at Angelo leaving quickly, Reilly shrugged helplessly, and then quickly caught up with him. The two walked into the hotel together and went to rest...
The next day, after the two of them got up, Angelo waited at the door. After watching Rayleigh, who had already bought supplies, approaching, the two of them left the Rainbow Kingdom and set foot on the road ahead with the courtesy of the city gate guards.
The journey………
After walking to the north of the grassland for a while, they stopped in front of a cave that was blocked by a big stone. They touched the big stone blocking the road in front of them. Angelo said:
"If your guess is correct, here is the tunnel leading to the Mibu Icefield. Well~, let's push it away first!"
After speaking, Angelo bent down slightly, grabbed a bulge under the big rock in front of him with one hand, and with Rayleigh's surprised expression, he suddenly threw it up, then pulled out the light-breaking blade and slashed it, blocking the way.
The big stone was cut into several halves in an instant and fell to the ground.
"Wow! You didn't use power magic, did you?"
Looking at Angelo who was calm and composed, Reilly asked in a sour tone.
"Don't think about it, it's just a stone. Okay, let's go, kill Said Steel first, and then come back! It's really troublesome to talk about it!"
Shaking his head and ignoring Rayleigh who shouted about unfairness, Angelo speeded up and rushed towards Said Steel...
After a while, after entering a large forest, Angelo and Reilly saw the entrance to an underground palace appearing at the end of their field of vision. They looked at each other, quickly speeded up, and rushed in...
…
"Is this where that guy from Said Steel lives? It looks quite luxurious. Let's go and explore first to see what treasures there are!"
As soon as they entered the palace, Angelo looked at the luxurious decorations around him. After a few words of admiration, the two of them rushed to the deepest part.
Soon, the two of them came to the first T-shaped fork in the road and stopped.
"Where should I go?"
After looking at the north and then the south, Reilly asked Angelo and then waited for his decision.
"Um? Do you have any coins?"
After touching his body and finding that there was no such thing as a coin, Angelo asked a question that was not what he was asking.
"What coin?"
"Is it the kind of thing that has pros and cons?"
"Is this okay?"
As he spoke, Rayleigh took out a hexagonal medal with the Creation Mountain of the Divine Realm engraved on one side and a demon god pattern on the other side.
After receiving the medal, Angelo threw it up into the air. As the medal continued to roll in the air, Angelo said:
"The devil goes south, the mountain realm goes north!"
"Okay, let's go north!"
After saying that, he threw the medal back, and then the two of them walked to the north.
"Why are you deciding with this, just to pass the time?"
Halfway through, Reilly asked curiously.
"Absolutely! I usually have better luck, so it doesn't matter if I give it a try!"
Angelo replied, and as he spoke, the two of them rushed in and soon reached the end.
"Wow! That's what I said, but I didn't expect there to be a treasure chest? Come on, go take a look!"
As he said that, Angelo took the brunt and opened one of them, and saw that it contained hundreds of gold coins.
And Rayleigh was also infected by Angelo's treasure-hunting emotions, and he opened the second box...
"Wow? It's actually a herbal medicine, something that can save lives at critical moments!"
While talking, Rayleigh put the herbs into the space equipment. The two of them took a last look around and found that nothing was left behind. They left here and rushed to the deepest part of the palace...
Soon, after passing the previous T-intersection, the two passed two more corners, and finally stopped in front of a staircase extending downward.
"Huh? Why did you stop? Did something happen?"
Looking at Angelo who was stopping at the door, Reilly asked doubtfully.
"That's it! It's okay, but remember that I gave Wigginton to you before in the Rainbow Kingdom, so now this one belongs to me, do you have any objection? Just treat it as your agreement!"
It seemed like a questioning tone, but Angelo didn't give Reilly time to refuse. The two of them entered the second floor of the palace...
