The three strange black lights released by the demon spies ignored Queen Isa's protective light shield and sank directly into her chest.
The black light is silent and seems to have no lethality. But the most intuitive effect... is to detonate the "evil spirit" in Isa's body!
Listening to the wild smile of the demon before being subdued, everyone knew that its move might not be that simple.
It turned out that the spy who took action was the demon commander [Terror King] Utamo, who was the most important chess piece in the elves' quest. It would detonate at the most critical moment, plunging the elves into eternal disaster.
territory.
Moreover, that is the original divine power contained in the ancient demon god's body in the seal. Even Queen Isa, a powerful demigod, would have an extremely headache to deal with it all her life.
Now detonating the "evil spirit" is enough to turn any strong person in the world into a demon!
...
Raymond was the first to discover the abnormality of the high-level demon, but it was only a ten thousandth of a second longer than others.
And since the black light was so fast that a demigod-level powerhouse couldn't react, he obviously didn't have the ability to stop it. Seeing the face of Queen Isa next to him instantly turn as dark as ink, he felt a thump in his heart.
Judging from this situation, it is obvious that it cannot be suppressed by the method of "bloodletting to cure poison" last time.
It wasn't just the elders of the elves whose minds were blank and didn't know how to deal with it. Even Raymond, an outsider, was also panicked.
If Queen Isa is really possessed by a demon, he will probably be the first to die!
Who said he was the weakling closest to Isa and the weakest in strength.
[Ding! I discovered the ‘demon power’, do you want to strip it off? 】
However, when the system prompted him to remember, Raymond's expression became a little strange.
This was the first time he heard the term [Demon Power], but he had heard something similar before, called [God's Power].
When he was in the Black Sea, this thing was the mysterious power that troubled Mr. Capone, and later almost killed Lorraine.
In the words of the big guys, it is a kind of power that is condensed beyond the rules that extraordinary people can understand. It is most likely a kind of power that only gods can control.
Even a trace of it is an unbreakable and terrifying force for the top level experts.
Once infected, it is like a tarsal maggot that cannot be removed.
The moment the black light appeared, Raymond listened to the system prompt and selected the "stripping" option without hesitation.
Then, a dramatic scene happened.
He looked at the three beams of black light that had just entered Queen Isa's body. Before they had time to cause trouble, they were pulled out by the system and broken down into black particles.
Immediately, the system prompt sounded again.
To Raymond's surprise, peeling off the [God's Power] can increase power points and soul strength, but peeling off the [Devil's Power] brought up another prompt.
[Ding! You have fused a trace of 'Devil Power', and it is detected that you have comprehended the second stage of the divine solution 'Six-Armed Yama', and your comprehension of the third stage of the mystery will be automatically increased by 5%...]
Then three beams of black light were peeled off three times in total, and the comprehension increased by 15%.
"This thing... can also increase the understanding of arcane bottlenecks?"
Raymond felt very surprised and a little bit unexpectedly happy.
Solving the bottleneck...can't you only rely on yourself to understand it?
Judging from his current situation, even with his super-high understanding now blessed by the [Mind Power Fruit], he still doesn't know how to understand the three stages of mysteries.
But you don’t want to increase your proficiency by 15% just by stripping off those three strands of [Devil Power]?
If there were no other opportunities, this 15% progress would save him several years of hard work in meditation!
If there were more than ten rays of black light, wouldn't it be possible to understand the three secrets immediately?
No matter what level of arcana form you have, only after the third level can you truly have unpredictable abilities.
Raymond felt as if he had found a shortcut...
But then I thought about it, how could it be so easy to find a god-level power like [Demon Power]?
At this moment, an idea came to my mind instinctively.
Huh...
This demon spy can use this black light to plot against Queen Isa. Doesn't it mean... that there may be more "Rosei Volcano" as the demon's lair?
...
However, this is not the time to think wildly.
Changes come and go quickly.
Without the influence of those three [Devil Power], Queen Isa's speed of becoming possessed instantly slowed down.
But at this moment, her condition is still not optimistic.
Even if she tried her best to use the power of nature to resist, her skin would become darker and darker as if soaked in ink.
She reached out and seemed to be planning to take something, but due to the resistance of the "evil spirit" in her body, her hand was stuck.
"Is she going to bleed?"
Seeing this, Raymond immediately understood and knew that Queen Isa was planning to cut her wrists to bleed.
With a "click", the long sword was unsheathed.
Raymond originally wanted to do it for him, but he never thought that he could not break through the defense of a demigod-level powerhouse if he wanted to.
Moreover, his action of slashing people with a knife also scared the elven elders in the hall.
This human being actually wants to kill the Queen in front of them?
Raymond didn't wait for those elders to misunderstand, and shouted: "General Mengge, Her Majesty the Queen's demonic energy is attacking her heart. She must cut her wrists and bleed her as soon as possible to suppress it!"
Hearing this, Meng Ge was the first to react, and in a flash, he sprinted a hundred meters.
He was the only person present who knew the details of Raymond and the ins and outs of the whole matter. He chose to believe Raymond at the first moment.
There were all well-informed high-level elves present. They listened to the "bloodletting therapy" described by Raymond, thought for a moment, and immediately understood what was going on.
But Zhenhou, a figure flashed by, and Meng Ge had already appeared next to the throne. Then he stretched out his hand and cut a blood line directly on Queen Isa's wrist.
For a moment, it was like a balloon was popped, and a stream of black blood shot out.
The amount of black blood that surged out this time was obviously much more than what Raymond had seen before, and it lasted for dozens of seconds. It was not until the blood that flowed out gradually turned red that the blackness on Queen Isa's face slowly faded away.
.
After a while, Queen Isa completely suppressed the demon spirit in her body, took control of her body, and her complexion became rosy.
She looked at everyone staring at her with concern, waved her hands slightly weakly, and said: "I'm fine..."
...
Bloodletting to cure poison is like drinking poison to quench thirst. How could the high-ranking elves fail to see that the current situation of their queen is not good.
"My Lady Queen! You..."
"Your Majesty, what did you mean by 'evil spirit possession' just now?"
"Bloodletting and poisoning will damage the source. Your Majesty, please do not use it again..."
"..."
Everyone was talking, all full of concern.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the demon spirit in Queen Isa's body may have been around for a long time, and this "bloodletting therapy" may not be used for the first time.
They finally understood why they felt that their queen's aura was getting weaker and weaker. It turned out that she had been suffering from a hidden illness for a long time.
For a moment, they also understood Queen Isa's good intentions in hiding from everyone. This queen, who was responsible for the rise and fall of the elves and the number one master of the elves, silently shouldered too much.
At this time, Queen Isa spoke again and said: "Everyone... I have my own sense of my situation, so you don't have to worry too much. The war is urgent now, and I hope everyone will go to the front line as soon as possible. Now that the seal has been completely resolved, the demon
The tribe will definitely attack at all costs, and the pressure on the front line will be great. Generals will gather the defense line first, and later the logistics department will send some super-powerful magic artillery to each legion, waiting for the right time, and then unified counterattack..."
In the past, if the hidden dangers of the seal were not resolved, the demons in the secret realm would be killed endlessly.
Using magic weapons invented by humans will do more harm than good to the elves.
Once the technology is leaked, there is a danger of annihilation for the elves.
Now, not only has the seal been completely resolved, but the demon spies within the top elf clan have also been forced out.
No more worries.
Those magic artillery and muskets in the Queen's secret library as "death battles" can also come in handy.
Magic artillery with a range of more than ten times that of ordinary gunpowder artillery is definitely a killer weapon on the battlefield. Installed on floating sailboats, it allows them to destroy the ancient demons and break through the defense lines of the demons...
...
Queen Isa: "Generals, the war is the most important thing. Please go to the front line to set up defenses as soon as possible."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Although they were worried about the Queen's physical condition, the elf generals also took orders and left, leaving only a few elders including Meng Ge.
Solve the seal and eliminate the traitors...
Although there were many accidents today, in the end they were all extremely good news for the elves.
Although the injury was serious, the Queen was still in a good mood.
The pressure on her shoulders now is at least 90% lighter than before she met Raymond.
Now that the sealing matter has been completely resolved, as long as the elves can withstand this wave of crazy counterattack by the demons, victory is destined to be theirs.
Although Isa is the queen, there are some things she says that don't count.
For example, your own physical condition.
Before, she could hide it from everyone in the clan, and only a few internal affairs elders knew about her injury.
As soon as he came out in front of everyone, solving the problem of "possession by evil spirits" was immediately put on the agenda.
"Hey... Although you are afraid of affecting the overall situation, Your Majesty, you shouldn't hide it from us..."
"That's right! You also use the method of 'bloodletting to cure poison', which hurts the source. If it hadn't been for this time, you don't know how long you would have kept it secret..."
"..."
At this moment, she was like a sick little girl who refused to take medicine and was surrounded by a group of internal affairs elders who had been nagging and complaining for a long time.
For the first time, Raymond saw the helpless look of a little daughter on the face of this aloof Her Majesty the Queen.
Most of these internal affairs elders were Isa's uncles and aunts. Even though she was a queen, she could only bow her head in silence and accept the punishment after being reprimanded.
Training is training, but the reality is that we still need to think about how to solve this problem.
At this time, an elder asked: "General Meng Ge, wasn't His Highness Ige also attacked by an evil spirit before but recovered from it? Can the secret method you are looking for...can be used to remove the 'evil spirit' from His Majesty's body?"
Although there are only a handful of people in the entire elves who know that there is a human world outside the secret realm. But when these knowledgeable elders saw the appearance of Raymond and others, they naturally guessed a bit.
Previously, the elders of the entire ethnic group were helpless in "stripping off the evil spirits", but Mengge actually found a way to cure His Highness Ige. The "secret method" that was announced to the outside world, now that I think about it, is probably a method found in the human world.
"this..."
Hearing this, Meng Ge also showed a hint of helplessness and glanced at Queen Isa on the throne.
He had indeed suspected that Her Majesty the Queen was ill, but he did not expect that it was an equally troublesome "evil spirit possession".
But the dramatic thing is...
The human being who solved the "evil spirit possession" of His Highness Ige is right in front of us!
Moreover, judging from Raymond's reaction to drawing the knife just now, he obviously knew about the Queen's physical condition.
He didn't solve it, so obviously there was something fishy about it.
At this time, the elders looked at Meng Ge's hesitant expression and couldn't help but urge: "General Meng Ge, it's now, what else do you have to worry about? Your Majesty's safety is related to the fate of our elves.
, even if the price of the 'secret method' is astronomical, we must find a way to solve it."
"this..."
Meng Ge was stared at by the reproachful eyes of the elders, and his scalp was numb, but he didn't know how to speak.
Just when he was extremely embarrassed, Isa on the throne spoke.
"Don't embarrass General Meng Ge..."
She sounded helpless, pointed to Raymond beside her, and said: "It was not the 'secret method' that cured Iger, but Captain Raymond. But he couldn't solve the 'evil spirit' in my body."
The matter couldn't be kept secret, so Isa had no choice but to tell Pan.
"What? The method of soul stripping?"
"No wonder...I, the elves, are not good at soul arts..."
"I didn't expect that a human would solve the problem..."
"..."
After listening to Isa's words, these elders finally understood the whole story.
At this time, they were even more surprised when they looked at Raymond's expression.
It turns out that this human swordsman who doesn't seem to be very strong is actually a spiritual mage with great attainments in soul magic?
Not only did he save His Highness Ige, but now he helped bring back the "lost sealed sacred object" for their clan, completely solving the hidden danger that had plagued their clan for hundreds of millions of years!
What a great kindness this must be?
It’s not an exaggeration to say that he is a “hero” who saved his elves from dire straits!
[Ding! xxx’s favorability towards you has increased...]
The system prompts continuously.
"???"
Raymond stood there and was being pointed at like a monkey, unable to say anything at all.
I just felt helpless and embarrassed, but then I found that the system seemed to have made an error, and the favorability notification skyrocketed.
...
After a long time, the elders listened to Queen Isa's story and understood the reason why she concealed the "evil spirit" in her body.
An elder asked with an embarrassed look on his face: "Your Majesty, you mean... there must be someone stronger than you to help you suppress the 'evil spirit' in your body. Otherwise, it will not be solved at all?"
Queen Isa was very calm, as if she had no hope of being cured, "Yes! Moreover, the person who takes action must be much stronger than me to ensure that everything is foolproof. Otherwise, it is very likely to be involved and injured.
.”
This is where the real rub lies.
For a powerful demigod like Queen Isa, in terms of cultivation alone, there are probably only a few people in the entire world of navigation who can be similar to her.
But if you really want to say that someone is much better than her...
Except for the legendary "god", I'm afraid no one can reach that level!
Even Pueus of Eludnes, the "City of Eternal Night", could not do this.
The elders all had sad faces, as if they were the ones who had been attacked, and sighed.
"Hey...the laws of this world are now broken, and the demigod-level experts have reached the limit of their cultivation. It is impossible for there to be a higher-level existence than the Queen."
"Even if there are, I'm afraid they are legendary gods..."
"Eh... Didn't Your Majesty say before that the goddess sent down an oracle? Since the goddess can help us find out the gaps in our clan that are tempted by demons, then... can we let the goddess send down her divine power to relieve your majesty's body?
Hidden danger?”
"..."
A group of internal affairs elders were discussing, and suddenly the "oracle" was mentioned.
Only then did everyone realize that they had overlooked a very important point.
For mortals, "possession by evil spirits" is a big trouble... but is there anything that the "goddess of nature" they believe in can't do?
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly burst with hope.
Is it possible that today is a lucky day for their elves? The goddess of nature, who has not shown any miracles for countless years, has once again favored their forgotten elves?
"Um...everyone, there is some misunderstanding."
There were many clan elders in front of her, and Queen Isa had nothing to hide. She said with a slight embarrassment: "Although I also hope that the goddess will favor our clan again. But... the 'oracle' just now was a temporary measure.
..”
Then, beep beep beep beep...
After listening to this, all the elders looked at Raymond with an innocent face.
Is it the credit of this human boy again?
The so-called "oracle" was also the one who used secret methods to help identify the demon spies?
"???"
Raymond listened to the system beeping loudly again, his eyes filled with confusion.
Damn it...I didn't say anything during the whole process, so why did my favorability level skyrocket again?
...
The "oracle" became a bubble, and the matter suddenly reached a dead end again.
Without a strong person who can suppress the "demigod-level evil spirit", the hidden dangers in Queen Isa's body cannot be completely resolved.
A kind of elder's heart is getting heavier and heavier.
Queen Isa herself was quite tolerant. She looked at the sad faces of everyone and instead opened her mouth to comfort them.
She said in a relaxed tone: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. Now that the seal has been completely resolved, the demon clan's demise is just around the corner. With my current physical condition, as long as I don't encounter the same situation as before, I can still suppress the 'evil spirit' temporarily.
no problem..."
After a pause, she continued: "After Ige secret cultivator comes out of seclusion this time, I will give up the throne to him, and then completely ban the magic power. Even if something happens to the 'evil spirit' by then, it will not affect the overall situation.
of..."
The free and easy smile on her lips made others see a hint of sadness.
Completely sealing mana?
That is no different from self-defeating martial arts.
When everyone heard these words, they felt even more mixed in their hearts.
Seeing that the war between the elves and the demons that has lasted for hundreds of millions of years is about to be won, they have to watch the empress, the greatest contributor, abandon her cultivation, abdicate and go into seclusion?
And just when everyone was helpless,
Suddenly someone said: "Your Majesty, if you want to suppress the 'evil spirit' with your divinity...can the [Hangyue Divine Platform] in our clan's 'Moon Spring' do it?"
As soon as these words came out, outsiders except Raymond were a little confused.
The frowning brows of the elders of the elves suddenly relaxed!
