As the night gets darker, crimson comes to the sky step by step, under the sparse stars, waving light veils, covering the city of Bezona.
As the military commander of the Kingdom of Marsi, Duke Juan Fernandez also ended his inspection of various defense points and returned to his temporary command post, a rather ordinary two-story building. This small building has tunnels connected to the surrounding buildings.
The building will not be attacked by the possible arrival of the Beyonder team due to too many people entering and exiting the building.
This is also the disadvantage of non-demigod commanders in war. They must ensure their own safety first. If they are demigods, they can definitely wait for rescue.
As for finding this place through "divination" and other means, Duke Fernandez also has Paulino Balmond, a senior deacon from the Church of Knowledge, and this "prophet" has already used anti-divination methods for this place.
"Juan, you should reduce your activities so as to avoid being discovered by the Feneborters."
As soon as he returned to the temporary command post, Paulino Balmond directly suggested it. He looked to be in his early twenties, had blond hair, was unusually handsome, and was not wearing anything related to the clergy of the Church of Knowledge.
clothing, but a military uniform.
But Duke Fernandez knew from Archbishop Bernhard that the senior deacon from Lemberg was more than twice his age. The reason why he looked so young was because an accident occurred while developing a secret technique, and he became
It looks like this now.
"Deacon Balmond, your secret technique can indeed connect me with the officers below, but the army does not work like this. Ma Xi has not experienced war for too long. Only if I go down from time to time to communicate with the lowest level soldiers can I continue to maintain
Morale and combat effectiveness.
"What's more, you protect me, and I still have this armor!"
Juan Fernandez laughed, clenched his fist and hammered his chest.
He did not wear a military uniform like soldiers and officers, but wore an ancient-looking battle armor that only protected his chest, back and the upper parts of his two arms. In addition, his face only had scattered wrinkles.
With his middle-aged face and the silver threads hidden in his black hair, he looks like a knight from three hundred years ago.
"Even if it was made by Emperor Russell, it can only withstand two attacks from demigods at most..." Although Paulino Balmond said this, looking at the armor on Duke Fernandez, there was unstoppable excitement in his eyes.
Curious, "I heard Luca Brewster say that this is the armor created by Emperor Russell based on the 'Stiano's Golden Armor Technique'."
"I don't know about this. The family only records that the emperor gave this set of armor and the corresponding usage methods because of the ancestor's military exploits." Duke Fernandez tapped the metal-like armor with his finger, "Archbishop Bernhard
I have studied it with Countess Dorothy Lovelace, but they seem to have found nothing. Lord Deacon, if you want to study it, I can lend it to you after the war."
"That's fine." Senior Deacon Balmond nodded first, and then a strange smile appeared on his abnormally handsome face, "It's just that you gave Dorothy the armor to study, and you actually took it back..."
Juan Fernandez's eyelids twitched and he smiled bitterly:
"I also wasted a lot of effort and finally asked Archbishop Bernhard to come forward to get it back."
Dorothy Lovelace was a fanatical believer in Emperor Russell and even wanted to marry his descendants and have children, but was directly rejected by the Church of Steam.
"Haha..." Paulino Balmond laughed suddenly, and the dark blue hole became deep and dark, like the darkness before dawn, "Be careful!"
The soft but not blazing morning light burst out and quickly formed a barrier around the two people. But as soon as the barrier was formed, it was easily torn into pieces like paper.
Juan Fernandez, who had not yet reacted, was still a little confused, but the ancient armor on his body had already changed, rapidly stretching and deforming, covering his whole body, and forming a horn-topped helmet on his head, with a golden glow.
float above.
"Huh?"
Before Paulino Balmond could make another move, the armor on Fernandez's body exuded a faint golden light and dimly faded, like rusty scrap iron, turning into fragments of different sizes and falling to the ground, while the Duke was at a loss.
His expression also disappeared, and blood-colored flames rose in his eyes.
At this time, Deacon Balmond, who looked to be in his early twenties, had a miniature sun condensed in his dark blue eyes, and pure and clear light burst out from his body, illuminating every corner around him.
This is the "No Darkness Realm" of the "No Dark One". He has realized the nature of the enemy, which is a powerful evil spirit.
The possessed Fernandez took a step forward, faced the rays of light, clenched his fists, twisted his arms, and punched Balmond between the chest and abdomen, causing the sun in his eyes to dissipate and the light bursting out of his body to recede.
, the whole person flew out and hit the wall.
When Paulino Balmond looked up again, he was the only one in the room. The flames burning on the white wall opposite gradually extinguished, leaving a line of text.
"I found you, boy, do you want to make a deal with me now?"
What does it mean?
Looking at the charred words above, senior deacon Balmond showed a trace of confusion on his abnormally handsome face, but he immediately reacted. First he ordered a warning, and then informed Marci and Lundborg that Duke Fernandez had been killed by a powerful villain.
The spirit was taken away.
Five minutes later, Bamond, who had not received a reply and was worried that the evil spirit would come back, did not try to "predict", but continued to use secret techniques to explore the situation within two kilometers around him. Suddenly, his dark blue hole appeared.
Confusion and astonishment flowed from his heart, and his figure disappeared from the room in a flash.
On an ancient city wall 1,500 meters away from the two-story building where the temporary command post was located, the figure of the "Prophet" appeared. He looked at the figure below, frowned, and casually created a gust of wind.
The blade slashed out, leaving a deep mark on the wall.
When the running figure heard the noise, he instinctively dodged aside, hid behind a wall, looked into the air, and saw Paulino Balmond with ecstasy on his face, and waved his arms vigorously:
"Sir Balmond, it's me, Juan Fernandez!"
He walked out from behind the wall, wearing only a linen shirt on his upper body. He was none other than the recently taken away Masi military commander, Duke Juan Fernandez.
He actually came back intact!
But Senior Deacon Balmond had no intention of acknowledging him. He was still suspended in the air, with Fernandez's figure reflected in the dark blue hole, and asked in a deep voice:
"How did you come back?"
"Your Excellency, Deacon, I don't know for sure." Juan Fernandez touched his hair, "I only remember that I was attacked. When I regained consciousness, I was at the edge of the forest outside the city of Bezona, and then I hurried to
Run back."
"By the way, there are burnt words left there, which are 'I can play with you for a long time'!"
Paulino Balmond, who didn't realize anything was wrong, pointed at Duke Fernandez. The strong wind surrounded him and took him into the air, towards the command post.
"I have already reported what happened just now, and I also ask His Excellency the Duke to wait with me." After returning to the second-floor building, Balmond said to Fernandez, who was sitting on the sofa.
Duke Fernandez, who drank all the water in the glass in one breath, wiped the water droplets from his beard, looked at the blackened words on the opposite wall, and asked:
"Can you tell me what exactly happened just now?"
"I don't know very well. I just know that the one who attacked us was an evil spirit..." Paulino Balmond hesitated a little, but still said, "I think the opponent should at least have the power of Sequence 3."
In fact, he had a more terrifying suspicion in his mind. The one who attacked them was an angel. He had no ability to resist just now. But for Duke Fernandez, who was not yet a demigod, it was not good to know too much.
"Sequence 3?"
Fear appeared on Duke Fernandez's face again. Why did such a being come to him? What did the words he left behind mean?
Silence fell in the room, and it took a few more minutes before the silence was broken with the arrival of Luca Brewster, representing Lemberg, and Archbishop Bernhard, representing Massey.
But what these two people brought was the same idea. The matter was already known and there was no need to worry about it anymore. It was treated as if it had never happened and it would never happen again in the future. This explanation made Paulino Balmond and Duke Fernandez, who were the parties involved,
They looked at each other and nodded helplessly to show that they understood.
…
Backlund, near the "Block of Order".
A figure stands in front of a glass window. His face is thin and angular, and he wears gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. This is the crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow who is the most feared by pirates.
His eyes fell on the bottom of the glass window, where a little bit of bright red slowly overflowed, condensed into liquid, and slid down. Wherever the liquid passed, gray and white spread around, covering the original light yellow, like stones that had been re-mounted.
Soran Einhorn Medici has indeed returned to the angelic level of power as Mr. "Emperor" said. The "Eternal Witch" of Sequence 3 was solved by her without even a little resistance... Klein
Facing the glass window he said:
"I have fulfilled my promise."
A figure instantly appeared on the glass window.
He wore black armor stained with blood and had red hair as bright as fire. He was none other than the "Red Angel" evil spirit Sauron Einhorn Medici.
"Well done." She walked out of the window and said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Klein took out something from his pocket, raised the corners of his mouth, and responded happily:
"You did a good job too."
As he spoke, he breathed into the monocle in his hand and put it on his left eye.
Soren Einhorn Medici's smile suddenly solidified.
The next moment, the marionette "Hell Admiral" Ludwell, who looked like Gehrman Sparrow, exploded like a bloody firework, the monocle melted into liquid, and then there were streaks of flames in every dark corner.
Burned one after another.
After doing all this, the "Red Angel" evil spirit first glanced at the blood clots on the ground, raised the corners of his mouth, smiled into the air and said:
"I'll say it again, you are very talented as a provocateur. When Zaratul was digesting the magician potion, he didn't dare to pretend to be Amon in front of me."
Obviously, if you do this, that will be the fate of the five marionettes who died just now.
"Okay, come out. Killing five spiritual insects at once should be bearable for you!"
After another ten seconds, a figure as thin as paper with the face of Gehrman Sparrow came out. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples. The death of five spiritual insects at one time obviously gave him a headache.
The damage to the body is somewhat high.
"You know the 'Cunning Mage' very well?"
"For every prey, the hunter needs to understand." Sauron Einhorn Medici glanced at the other party and chuckled, "Your moral standards are very high, but for a 'Cunning Mage'
'It's easy for people to lock in their true identity."
It is easy to defeat a "Cunning Mage", but it is very difficult to kill him. This is largely due to the fact that it is difficult to distinguish between the "Cunning Mage"'s real body and marionette. However, using a mouse is not enough to transform into an adult.
Secret Puppet, then this problem can be easily solved.
Amon also said the same thing... Klein endured the throbbing pain in the depths of his mind and complained in his heart. Now he felt like he hadn't slept for three days and three nights. He did not answer the "Red Angel" evil spirit and continued
asked:
"During the Solomon Empire, Zaratul should have been an angel. How could he still be digesting the 'Obvious Mage' potion?"
"I'm talking about little Zaratul." Sauron Einhorn Medici replied casually.
…
West District, 45 Gatton Street.
Edward Laito opened his eyes, turned over and sat up, took out the mask from the drawer, put it on his face, came to the balcony, looked at the crimson covered by the clouds, jumped up and rushed towards the "Clock of Order".
…
"You don't seem to be so peaceful. I can even imagine your state when you faced Gehrman Sparrow just now, but I don't care. Ah, I forgot to tell you. You'd better confirm the status of your descendants immediately.
State, don’t you think there’s something wrong with Gehrman Sparrow being able to find you so easily?”
"White Witch" Katarina's face turned a little pale at first, then became serious and solemn, she nodded slowly and said:
"I see."
After saying that, she immediately stepped back, entered the glass window again, and went nowhere through the illusory mirror world.
Seeing the "White Witch" disappear, the "Red Angel" evil spirit cast its sights on another place of darkness:
"Boy, stop hiding, there are only two of us left now, let's talk!"
Rawls, who was aware of Edward Laito, walked out of the darkness, adjusted the mask on his face, and asked curiously:
"You didn't kill the 'White Witch'?"
In the original work, Sauron Einhorn Medici has not yet recovered her strength and does not have the ability to easily kill a demigod, but now that she has recovered her status as an angel, she has not been killed yet.
