The main hall of the God King of Light is undoubtedly the most majestic place on the island, but it is always so deserted. Even if the sunlight from outside penetrates through the doors and windows, it can only cast a shallow shadow on the floor, which will never blend in.
The light emitted from the gem lamps on the four walls is like no one can change the majesty of the God King of Light.
"Father God is well." Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess's voice echoed in the huge space: "Liretta Knach came here in response to the imperial edict."
"Since when did we become so unfamiliar?"
Across a crystal curtain, the God King asked calmly: "Xuan, you came here because you want to ask some things about Sibia. Also, how is our little princess?"
"Reporting to Father God, since the little demon princess eloped, there has been an uproar in Sbia, and the situation has become extremely delicate. The three princes have become a powerful force, and the situation of jointly restraining Cohen Keda has also been disrupted."
The princess lowered her eyes and replied: "My little sister...she is fine at the moment, but she was ordered by Korn Kedar to kneel in front of the crystal coffin of Fichet Shamai."
"She is your little sister, and you are not angry at being so insulted by Cohen Keda?" The God King's voice came slowly, with a hint of questioning in his gentleness.
"With the character of Cohen Keda, I knew something like this would happen on the day my little sister got married. What's the use of being angry now? Just using this matter to blame Sbia seems like the Gods are taking the opportunity to attack."
The eldest princess said softly: "It's not that I can't punish Cohen Keda, but I'm just afraid of ruining Father God's plan."
"If you say that, I will understand why you are angry with me. The gods and demons are marrying the little princess together, and they are marrying the same human being. This is an attempt between me and the devil. For the little princess, it may not be a hardship.
Lian. Didn't you grow up after some things?" The princess did not answer. The God King was silent for a moment and then changed the topic: "How will things develop next?"
"The two people who eloped have been found by Cohen Keda. The little demon princess was ordered to return to the palace. Then there was a fight between Cohen Keda and the crow." The eldest princess replied: "After a while, we lost the lives of these two people.
whereabouts."
"The demons may not be able to find them, but the eldest princess of the Bright God Clan should be able to find these two people."
"Father God praised me, they... got close to the pupa."
"Seriously?" The King of Light God said with surprise.
"It has been found out that Cohen Keda previously sent the Dragon Clan elders to determine the approximate location of the pupa, and sent the Vampire Clan to investigate in detail. However, the Vampire Clan suffered heavy casualties." The eldest princess replied: "Based on their last haunted location,
I'm sure they were looking for pupae. However, these two people didn't know what they were looking for, and they probably thought it was an ordinary treasure."
"In your opinion, what are the chances that they will emerge from the chrysalis?"
"With Cohen's intelligence, the chance of breaking out of the cocoon is very high." The eldest princess carefully added her own suggestion: "Do I need to keep close surveillance?"
"That's a trap set for gods and demons. With your ability, you won't be able to escape unscathed, so what's the point of keeping close surveillance?" The God of Light made a decision: "Forget it, be prepared and wait for them.
If it appears, collect the crow."
"Yes, what about Cohen Keda and Sibiya?"
"After recovering the crow, we will know whether the pupa has really emerged from the cocoon." The God King of Light replied: "At that time, everything will be determined."
"Obey the Father's commandments."
A dozen bright gems jumped and rolled on the smooth ground, making a series of crisp impact sounds. After the soft light that kept dancing was reflected many times by the surrounding objects, it became sharp and first illuminated the surroundings.
Part of the space - what caught the eyes of Cohen and Crow were countless diamond-shaped crystal pillars, either dense or sparse, standing in the deep darkness without any order.
With a soft "ding" sound, the largest red gem hit a piece of bright metal, and then rolled into the crystal pillars in the distance. After countless reflections of red light from the crystal surface, it actually came from
The bottom penetrated into the crystal - in an instant, the thick crystal column was like a lit torch, covering the entire space in a swaying red light.
Directly in front of Cohen and Crow is a pair of snow-white long wings that can be stretched out. Although they are not as elegant and full as when they are fully extended, every bend is filled with powerful power, just like the newly blooming wings of life.
Lotus traverses this vast space that is as high as a hundred arms and two hundred arms in diameter!
At the intersection of the long wings, there was a slender body wearing armor. Although the light was not very bright, both of them could see that it was a woman. At the moment when time stopped, she raised one hand to her chest
, the other hand holds a simple-style spear, the tip of the spear is pointed on the ground in front, and the tip of the right wing inserted into the stone wall together supports this proud figure that is about to pounce suddenly.
The pieces of feathers that are about to fly, the raised arms, the tip of the spear that slides forward... After one glance, people can no longer forget this majestic scene, even if they don't know how many years have passed.
, even if she obviously didn't accomplish what she wanted to do and couldn't really pounce down, those who came after her still had to look up and look up at the grandeur she had built with her life!
Although her limbs were still wrapped in armor, the armor on her chest and abdomen exploded from within, leaving only the armor on her back still connected. The exquisite helmet was also tilted to one side by the powerful impact.
Under the helmet mask is an exquisite face carved from pink and jade. The skin is clean and the facial features are clear. It possesses untainted elegance and purity. However, the expression on the face is frozen in disbelief at that moment, and there is a wave of emotion in the eyes.
confused.
"It seems we are not the first guests." Cohen looked up and asked softly: "Who is she?"
"The Traveling Envoy of the Light God Clan." Crow replied indifferently: "Looking at her wings, she should be a low-level traveling envoy who was born as a human. Looking at her armor and weapons, I don't know how many years ago they were."
"How could the traveling envoy of the Gods be born as a human being?" Cohen wondered: "What good does this do to the Gods?"
"If you bowed to the little princess of the Gods before, then you also have the opportunity to become a wandering envoy. She will give you some power and then charge you some things." Crow looked at Cohen: "This also explains why she can hold on here.
, because her magical power is much smaller than that of gods and demons. Even so, she couldn't hide after arriving here. The moment she released her energy, she accidentally killed herself. The guardians here only need to inspire
By using her true abilities, she can achieve her goal of killing the intruder."
"Guardian?" Cohen was stunned.
"Look in the direction where the tip of her gun is pointing." Crow raised his head forward: "The reason why she appears here is that she is well prepared. It is probably an attempt by the Light God Clan!"
The tip of the spear pointed at the clusters of crystal pillars of different colors.
"Each clump of crystals contains a guard, and the crystals should be their means of defense. Although they destroyed the Rangers, the Rangers' final blow also achieved the goal of killing them all." Crow stepped forward, sharp
The sword blade cut off a layer along the surface of the crystal, revealing the scene inside - a thin figure wearing a mage's robe, with hands like dead wood protecting his head and face, and his whole body curled up into a ball.
"It's a vampire..." Cohen looked at it carefully for a while before coming to this conclusion.
"That's right, although there are some differences from today's vampires, they are indeed the same race." Crow nodded and glanced at the dense crystal pillars around him: "This seemingly messy position should have been the strongest guard of the vampires.
What we are seeing now is the situation after the impact - that is to say, when they realized that the situation was not good and used this kind of defense, it was already too late. What the crystal finally wrapped was what happened in the previous moment.
It’s a body that has lost its life.”
"Is it a chain reaction of magic energy?" Cohen used a knife to scrape away several other crystal pillars: "But what makes me wonder is, what kind of magic energy can kill the patrol envoys and hundreds of vampire guards in an instant without damaging them?
Their bodies?”
"In fact, it has been damaged. The reason why the crystal is opaque is because the surface has been impacted by this magical energy." Crow gave the answer: "Magic with different attributes will have slight differences in speed, but the one who killed them is obviously not
The magic we are familiar with."
"Are you saying that what really caused their death was actually a new kind of magic, or a power that accompanies when magic energy is out of control? And it is faster than known types of magic?" Cohen looked up at Gao Xuan's head again.
"She", he said after a long time: "It turns out that she was unconscious before... That's fine. You have to know that no beauty wants to see herself like this."
"You still say I'm soft-hearted?" Crow smiled faintly.
"This is not soft-hearted, this is a kind of respect." Cohen shook his head: "As a human, it was not easy for her to reach this point. Of course, becoming a minion of the gods is a crime, but her demeanor at this time, this
The posture and power that have endured over the years... can at least earn me a sigh. Don't touch her, just let her and her opponent face off like this forever!"
"Why don't you study the lethality of this accompanying power against gods and demons? I think that is what you are really concerned about, right?"
"Yes, so I thought about it right away. Since the gods and demons have never come to this place again, it means that they are afraid of this kind of power. At least it is a kind of power that they are unwilling to face.
"Cohen replied with a smile: "So next, let's find this kind of thing... Yes, for me, this place is really a treasure!"
"Then, we have to make the light brighter first, and don't act rashly." Crow found a few more eye-catching crystals, carefully placed the gems in the right position, and finally allowed all kinds of light to be rendered in this space at the same time. Before
Some easily overlooked clues also became apparent.
Directly under the wings of the Parade, there is actually a huge magic circle. Countless metal wires are inlaid on the smooth ground. Simple lines are intertwined with each other to form a complex circular pattern. The final flow direction of all lines is
Point directly at the black stone slab covered with gems in the center.
Cohen tiptoed to the side, his eyes scanning the magic circle, the guardians and "her" over and over again.
"No matter how you look at it, this is a fight that has just begun, because it is a fragile magic circle that can be easily destroyed, and both the patrol envoys and the guardians are trying their best to avoid damage to it." After a long time, Cohen pointed at the magic circle.
Said: "The patrolling envoys took off from the outside of the magic circle, while the guards were all concentrated on the other side... No matter how you infer, this formation is wrong."
"Unless the patrol envoy disguised her identity when she came in." Crow gave Cohen the answer: "It is even possible that she disguised herself as a sacrifice to the magic circle."
"It makes sense to say this. Then, this place is very flat, and it doesn't look like a place where any treasure can be hidden." Cohen's eyes were fixed on the black stone slab: "Look, does the stone slab look like a handful?"
Lock?"
"I don't know if it's a lock or not, but I know that the chaotic magic energy comes from that stone slab." Crow shrugged: "Don't you have the key? If you take a look, won't the truth come out?"
Cohen carefully checked the surroundings and squatted down to study the magic circle for a while. After confirming that the magic circle was not activated, he came to the center of the magic circle and looked at the stone slab with doubtful eyes: "If the vampires are here,
Guardian, what about the vampires on the mainland now? They split into two tribes, each holding a part of this secret... Is this in itself a trap? "
"I guess the possibility of escape is higher. Not every race is willing to endure the long years of guarding." Crow stood on the other side of the stone slab: "If it is a trap, there will be other arrangements here."
"Found it, this should be the keyhole." Cohen's hand touched a crack on the stone slab: "I was wondering, after the key is inserted, will there be another selection process?"
"I think so." Crow nodded, but his expression was not nervous: "Just be prepared."
"Yeah, be prepared." Cohen took out the metal box: "The current leader of the Blood Clan is very cunning... No, since he is my elder, then I should say that he is a very smart leader.
"
"He handed over a total of four treasures, but only two of them really belonged to him. The other two were obtained by the Liaison Department from the demonic vampires." Opening the lid of the metal box, Cohen explained the contents of several items inside.
Origin: "Have you seen this dagger? It's called 'Vampire Touch'. It can absorb the enemy's life and use it for yourself. When I just became an adult, the vampire gave me this dagger - what a clever dagger."
Yifa, no matter what the Demonic Vampires think, they will never expect that the secret treasure is in the body of a young man."
"Do you think the vampires deceived you?"
"A little bit, but then this dagger saved me once, so it's even." Cohen smiled: "I wasn't too keen on this treasure at first, because I thought, what good things would be in the tribal treasure?
It’s just that after the vampires got these things, they still lost their troops with the help of the Liaison Department, so they had to come and donate the things to me... and they also said that after they found the things, I would have the right to distribute them."
"Do you feel like you're being taken advantage of again?"
"No, I was just wronged." Cohen shook his head: "The vampires gave me the things because they were afraid. They were afraid that if a small vampire had a treasure, I would think that he had a disobedient heart, and even
I think the previous failure in treasure hunting was also because of me... So what I have a headache now is, after I get the treasure, what should I give them? Is it the truth? "
"It's such an indecisive mentality." Crow commented disdainfully: "A coin is a favor, what can they say?"
"That's good, let's do it." Cohen picked up the dagger: "According to the characteristics of this dagger, it should be a vessel used for sacrifice. It can take away the vitality of the sacrifice, and this environment is forbidden to demons.
, so I conclude that the only thing that is not restricted here is life magic!"
"And the dagger is a key, which means that the price of opening the door is life." Crow's tone was very calm: "Obviously, we have no sacrifice."
"That's not a problem - seeing as you are so strong, it shouldn't matter if you bleed a little, right?" Cohen looked at Crow with a smile.
"Wordy!" Crow grabbed Cohen's hand holding the dagger and thrust it into the gap in the stone slab: "Half for each person!"
"I'm not ready yet..." Before Cohen could finish his sentence, the dagger had already been completely inserted into the gap. The stone slab shook slightly, and the gems inlaid on it lit up one by one. And in the magic circle, while interacting with
At the position corresponding to the gem, the lines on the ground slowly came alive, and a bright red surged through the thin metal lines.
"Banana, you're a watermelon!" Cohen caught the key with one glance and shouted: "There are so many gems, how can all the life magic be lit?"
"You are an energetic person." Crow pressed Cohen's finger to the blade that was still outside the gap, and a stream of blood flowed down the cold light: "It will be good for your body to bleed some blood."
"I'm the emperor!" Cohen furiously said, "This is not what the emperor is for!"
"I am a crow." The crow said slowly, "In the crow's heart, this is what the emperor uses."
"It's so shameless!" Cohen cried sadly, "It's so disrespectful!"
"Stop screaming, the magic circle is about to be activated." Seeing that the speed at which the gems on the slate were lit was slowing down, Crow's face straightened, and he pressed his finger on the blade on the other side, and blood gurgled down:
"Are you ready to meet the master of this place?"
"Don't let me see this bastard." Cohen shouted through gritted teeth: "No matter who he is, I will make him pay with blood!"
"As long as you see it, isn't it up to you to be happy?"
The gems on the slate were all bright, and the crow's eyes were on the magic array - countless bright red runes were flying, sending out colorful particles all around, and hundreds of bright lines were rotating around the magic array, forming something like
A beating rhythm like a heartbeat. There was a strange sound, like the tremor of a sharp blade cutting through the space, and a straight black line appeared in the center of the magic circle, slightly skewed!
"This is..." Before Cohen could finish his complaint, another slanted straight black line appeared. The two black lines were of the same length, connected at one end and far apart at the other end: "Is this pointing the direction?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the third, fourth, and fifth black lines appeared, forming a regular five-pointed star in the center of the circle.
"Draw a picture?" Cohen was stunned: "I'm good at drawing this thing. I guarantee it will look better than this."
The crow stared closely at one corner of the pentagram. At that point, there was a faint shadow - in the next moment, the shadow expanded, like a sliding curtain at the end of the performance, covering the entire pentagram.
.And Cohen and Crow are at the center of the pentagram!
The entire magic circle shook, and then in a dazzling flash of light, all the objects in the magic circle disappeared, and the entire space became silent. The lines that made up the magic circle slowly faded, and the floating runes disintegrated into nothing.
Colorful powder... Under the faint light of gemstones, everything in this space has returned to its previous appearance.
With a soft sound of "Hiss...", the gun head that was on the ground was retracted, a pair of slender feet touched the ground, and the spotless white wings were slowly retracted.
The cold, emotionless gaze stayed at the place where Cohen and Crow disappeared.
The wandering messenger hanging high in the sky, she came to life! (To be continued)
