Chapter Sixteen(1/2)
Chapter 16 What to do
It's snowing.
The lead-colored sky was as gloomy as if it was about to fall. The strong wind rushed straight to the earth with goose feather-like snowflakes, and instantly pulled up a huge white curtain between the sky and the earth. Wherever you see, in addition to the dense snow as waterfalls, they were also fine ice beads as broken as rice grains. In the gaps through the wind, you could vaguely hear the creaking of the falling snow layers, and the snow layers were constantly thickening.
In such bad weather, there were still people rushing to the road. Dozens of riders braved the wind and snow, guarding three carriages, galloping on the road leading to the eastern part of the empire.
Several of the knights were wearing thick blood-stained bandages, which looked like Xinfu’s wounds, but their faces were firm and their eyes were full of fanaticism. They endured the pain and the severe cold.
The carriage was covered with traces of charred and slashing and gun stabbing everywhere, and it seemed that it had also experienced the baptism of war. The carriage was damaged everywhere and air leaked from all sides, so the inside of the car was not much warmer than outside.
The curtains of the window of a carriage at the front were opened, and an old face looked out and lowered the curtains.
The old man sighed, "It's snowing again. This is the favorite weather for those guys who crawled out of the ice! I think they will definitely not miss this opportunity. Miss Mora, do you feel their existence?"
"Elder Kalmon, there are traces of ice and snow magic in the falling snowflakes. They should be not far from us." Mora said lightly.
Morra sat opposite Kalmon and three other magicians. This time, she did not wear the white holy robe she used to wear, but was wearing a long black skirt. The cut-shaped lower collar exposed the round shoulder line, and the front chest was a V-shaped one-piece, which opened deep to the two fingers of the cleavage, revealing most of the soft breasts, completely ignoring the cold blizzard. The robe drooped gently and softly against Morra's waist and abdomen. On the outside of her right leg was a long slit with the edge of the skirt. Although the edges of the silver-purple two-color threads were densely covered by everything, you can imagine that if she walked around, she would be thrilling beauty.
The ice-skinned and jade-like bones are like blown and broken skin, and the dark robe as dark as the night, Mora's whole body shines with a holy and beautiful brilliance than the bright moon. She put her hands on her knees, sitting in a dignified and graceful manner, as if she was preaching in the cathedral to face millions of believers. Only the purple-black rouge on her lips and the emotionless eyes in her blue eyes made her holiness feel a little murderous intent.
Although Mora was very beautiful and despite her extremely tempting clothes, the three elders, including Karmon, who knew the power of her magic, could only think of her majesty and could not have any evil intentions.
Hearing that Mora sensed that the enemy was nearby, Kalmon immediately opened the window and handed over an order to a knight outside. The other two mages in the car took the magic scroll and wand in an orderly manner, and then the two began to arrange magic circles in the car to defend against ice-attribute magic attacks.
The two carriages behind were also magicians with the Eye of Wisdom. After a moment, a faint blue magic light lit up on the three carriages. The magic array representing the defense ice attribute has been activated. The knights around the carriage have also begun to gather and list the combat formations.
With the command of the leader's knight, the entire convoy suddenly began to accelerate and rushed forward in the wind and snow.
"It must be the third interception, right? It's so snowy..." Karmon murmured to himself.
"The goddess tells us to go east, we must go." Moral said calmly: "Even if Rockefeller is really waiting for us in front, even if we fight until there is only the last person left, we still have to go east. Even if we fall down, we will also go east."
Karmon sighed, "Miss Mora, I am not afraid of losing my life. But this time all the high-level mages and warriors in the church were dispatched, and there was no decent resistance in the cathedral. If... if we all fell on the path of ice and snow, and the Silver Holy Church took the opportunity to attack our cathedral, then the history of the Eye of Wisdom might end here, and no believers will worship the goddess from then on, alas!"
January before, shortly after Rogge took away all the elite troops of the Principality, the Eye of Wisdom, which had expanded to the southern province of the Empire, began to constantly conflict with the Silver Holy Sect. Driven by fanatical believers on both sides, countless small-scale conflicts quickly turned into a comprehensive religious war. Although the Eye of Wisdom believers have many believers, their history is too short. Whether in the religious army, the number of mages or various priests with unique power, they are at an absolute disadvantage.
Perhaps the only thing that the Eye of Wisdom prevails is that Audreh frequently displays miracles, which is completely different from the silent goddess of ice and snow.
Mora smiled slightly and said, "The believers gathered together because of the goddess and devoted themselves to faith. In front of the goddess' oracle, devout believers can sacrifice everything. Even if the Eye of Wisdom is destroyed in the holy war, as long as the goddess survives forever, she will have new believers and believers will rebuild a new church. Why should we worry?"
Mora suddenly sensed something and had a complete face. She took out a magic scroll sealed in it with heavy golden patterns, stroked it gently, and sighed: "Rockefeller is ahead. I will restrain him as much as possible later, and you must rush out of the blockade with all your strength, and then go to Sild City to find Lord Roger... to avenge me."
Carmon looked at the magic scroll in Mora's hand with breath, and after a long time he let out a breath, he said, "Is this... the forbidden demon realm?"
The Forbidden Demon Realm is a seventh-level magic that is not included in the regular magic system. The way it prohibits magic is to drain all magic energy in the action area, so that no magic will be cast, and even half of the magic will be interrupted. However, the Forbidden Demon Realm is a very imperfect magic. It does not solve the problem of where the extracted magic power goes, and can only be stored in the body of the caster. Therefore, any spellcaster, even a great magician, continues to cast the Forbidden Demon Realm for too long, will be burned and died by excessive magic power in the body. However, to stop the casting Forbidden Demon Realm, it requires extremely high magic control. This is not something that an ordinary magician can do. Even a great magician is only half- and half-sure.
Therefore, the magic of the Forbidden Demon Realm has always been synonymous with death.
The Silver Holy Sect has always been famous for its Ice and Snow Mages. Their Snow Palace Guards are no better than those of the Eye of Wisdom Warriors. After interrupting the magic of the Ice and Snow Mages, the remaining people of the Eye of Wisdom have the chance to rush out.
The wind and snow became heavier. As the wind roared, snowflakes rushed towards the convoy of the Eye of Wisdom. The knights dismounted one after another, and moved forward step by step in the strong wind.
A young knight walking in the front suddenly let out a long scream! Just now, a large group of flying snowflakes hit his breastplate hard, and he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. When he looked down in shock, he found that there was a thin and long ice cone in the snow. Almost the entire ice cone was buried in his chest, leaving only a short piece outside his breastplate.
The Knight leader pulled him behind the team, looked at his injuries, and his face immediately became dark. He placed the young warrior flat on the ground, and shouted loudly: "All, raise the shield!"
All the knights held up their steel shields to protect their heads and chests, and continued to move forward with a roar.
The sky became even more gloomy, and there were more and more ice cones in the wind and snow, and the force became stronger and stronger. In the loud bang, ice cones hit the knights' shields. From time to time, a knight would be shot into the parts that were not protected by the ice cone, and slowly fell to the ground.
Ice magic has begun to be added to the ice cone flying all over the sky, so once it enters the body, the blood of the injured knights will condense in a short time. Even if the ice cone pierces a little skin, a large piece of flesh around the wound will die in a short time.
Three carriages were still advancing, although the knights who were guarding them were falling down one by one.
On the road ahead, you can vaguely see rows of snow palace guards holding giant axes, wearing heavy armor, and covering them with white cloaks.
"Keep going! Try to consume Rockefeller's magic." Mora in the carriage ordered. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes seemed to pass through the carriage and the wind and snow, looking at the end point indicated by the goddess.
On the other side of the road, the extremely tall leader of the Snow Palace guard said to Rockefeller beside him in awe: "With you personally taking charge, this time the cunning and lewd witch will definitely not be able to escape. It is a supreme honor to be able to see you perform the snowstorm magic with your own eyes!"
Rockefeller was wrapped in a white robe. When he heard the words of the guard leader, his face changed and he rebuked sternly: "No matter when, you must not be careless when facing the magician! Let all your cavalry be ready, and charge immediately when you hear my orders, and never leave them a chance! This holy war is a victory or defeat, and it will be a blow. If you dare to be negligent, then I will immediately change someone to command the guards of the Snow Palace!"
The guard leader was startled and immediately ordered one after another. After the war horses were neighing, one hundred cavalry and knights were already arranged in battle queues and ready to go. Seeing that their subordinates were so vigorous, the guard leader was confident. He then asked carefully: "Master Rockefeller, their behavior is really strange! We have mobilized so many troops to block and intercept, why don't they retreat, but insist on coming to die? And you seem to have known this, so you don't let me send troops to surround their retreat. Oh, I'm not questioning your judgment, but with my shallow wisdom, it's really hard to understand this."
Rockefeller looked at the convoy who was struggling to walk in front of the snow and snow in the distance, and slowly said, "It's not surprising that you can't understand my decision. Because the goddess of ice and snow showed the oracle, I asked me to intercept the convoy that the Eye of Wisdom was trying to pass through. The oracle of the goddess has made it clear that no matter what the price is paid, these people of the Eye of Wisdom will never retreat or take a detour."
The guard leader said tremblingly: "What did you say? Did the Ice and Snow Goddess finally descend the oracle? This... is true?" He could not suppress the excitement in his heart, and did not notice that his words had seriously offended Rockefeller, the great magician of Ice and Snow.
However, Rockefeller was already flawlessly concerned about these things at this moment. He looked at the convoy in the distance, his face getting more and more severe.
The roof of a carriage in the front suddenly exploded, and a storm of deep black mist floated out of the carriage and slowly rose.
Under the black fog, a jade hand that could not describe its beauty appeared. The slender hand held the black fog and slowly moved upwards, gradually revealing its white forearm and upper arm. Next, there was Morana's holy face like a layer of halo. Her blonde hair was like the first ray of dawn, illuminating the gloomy sky and the dim and bloody battlefield.
At this moment, the wind and snow disappeared, the sound disappeared, and even the distant mountains, forests and snow-covered roads disappeared! In the eyes of the snow palace guards and the ice and snow mage, there was only Mora who looked like a goddess at this moment!
Mora's clothes, standing in the sky, flew like fairy, and her long and strong legs appeared and disappeared under the edge of her skirt. The scenery was graceful and unmatched. This was a naked temptation, pointing to the most primitive instinct of the human heart, that is, the strong-willed Fengxue mages could not help but their blood was bulging, and those with weaker will have even changed their bodies.
Rockefeller sighed, and he chanted a brief spell. A cold wind instantly generated, and circled hundreds of mages and warriors of the Silver Holy Sect. The sudden chill pulled their consciousness back, and his intoxicated eyes were full of doubt at this moment, not knowing what had happened at that moment.
"This is Moral's natural charm! I passed my order. Except for the Ice and Snow Mage, everyone else will look straight and not be able to look at Moral! If there is a middle natural charmer, kill immediately!" Rockefeller said in a deep voice.
The guard leader immediately gave the order. He secretly broke out in cold sweat, because he had been naturally charmed for a while just now, and he did not realize that Mora had risen into the air without realizing it.
Mora looked at the Silver Holy Sect people in front of him with a pair of blue eyes, holding up his left hand, holding the rolling black mist that had turned into several meters in diameter.
There seems to be endless suction in the black fog. Flying snow, ice cones and cold wind within a radius of dozens of meters all hit the black fog like a tide, and then miraculously disappeared in the fog.
In an instant, around the Eye of Wisdom Convoy, the wind and snow that had been firmly suppressing the Knights disappeared completely!
At the moment when the wind and snow disappeared, three carriages began to drive wildly! The remaining thirty knights roared like thunder and charged on foot! Countless attack magics crossed the heads of the charge knights with various gorgeous trails and fell into the team of the Silver Holy Sect.
Looking at Mora in the sky, Rockefeller's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his eyes twitched a few times.
"I actually used the Forbidden Demon Realm? Mora, it seems that I have always underestimated you. However, passion, courage and sacrifice are not guarantees of success." The Great Magician of Ice and Snow thought to himself.
"All the ice and snow mages! Make every effort to strengthen the blizzard magic!" Rockefeller made his last command loudly! At this moment, Mora was like a glutton, greedily devouring all the magic power around him. What Rockefeller had to do was to serve her too much food until it bursts her stomach!
The sky became even more gloomy.
Mora's face suddenly turned pale. She bit her lower lip to death and struggled to hold on, without knowing that a wisp of blood was flowing out of her purple-black lips.
Rockefeller looked at the beautiful figure in the distant sky and sighed secretly. Since he had received the oracle of the Ice and Snow Goddess and successfully arrived here, then Mora, this young, beautiful and respectable divine wizard, is destined to die here.
The corner of Rockefeller's eyes suddenly swept a strange snowflake. The falling snow turned out to be blue. Looking closely, you will see that the extremely beautiful blue color seemed to be flashing.
Rockefeller's pupils immediately contracted, and he turned around like a whirlwind, and was shocked to see that the snow in the sky behind him had turned into blue!
Among the blue snow and the flying star chips, Androni, who has a beautiful appearance, is walking on the snow!
Her long chestnut hair flew with the wind, the blue sky pointed to the ground, and the bright stars emitting bright light around her body added a mysterious atmosphere to her beauty.
Androni had a sneer on her lips, and she said coldly: "Master Rockefeller, you are so cautious! It wasn't until now that I've been waiting for this opportunity!"
Rockefeller's face looked extremely ugly, and his eyes were only on Androni's long boots that were slowly stepping in front of him!
Distance! Distance is the devil!
Every mage will be repeatedly instilled with this view from the first day of learning magic. Distance is the first major event of life and death for mages. A mage has to deal with distance throughout his life, and no magic description is missing the scope of action or effective distance. Some mages even attribute all the art of magical battle to the control of distance.
Controlling distance is not only an art for mages, but also for those who are enemies of mages.
Androni didn't know how long she had been lurking. She waited until Rockefeller's attention was all focused on Mora and ordered all the ice and snow mages to strengthen the blizzard before she suddenly attacked and finally successfully narrowed the distance with Rockefeller.
Although Rockefeller is not good at one-on-one battles, he has been a great magician for a long time, and he is surrounded by many ice and snow mages and snow palace guards. Under normal circumstances, he still has the most chance of winning against Androni.
But at such a close distance, Rockefeller would have his head cut off by Androni with a sword before he finished reciting the spell!
Androni smiled coldly and leaned forward slightly. Then her beautiful figure pulled out a blue afterimage, and bypassed the guards of the Snow Palace who came to intercept them like lightning, and rushed into the group of ice and snow mages.
A gorgeous blue cross was drawn from the blue sky, crossing it across Rockefeller! Androni was extremely fierce, and this sword was clearly about cutting Rockefeller into four pieces!
The blue cross passed by Rockefeller who was standing still. The image of the Great Ice and Snow Magi was twisted and gradually disappeared, revealing a random portal that had not yet completely disappeared. It turned out that Rockefeller saw that the situation was not good, so he made a quick decision and immediately used the random teleportation technique to escape.
Androni took back the Biluo Starry Sky like lightning, and held the powerful axe of the leader of the Snow Palace's guard. She flew back with the power of the axe. Along the way, the Biluo Starry Sky rays sucked and spitted, and had cut off the hands of two ice and snow mages and cut off the lumbar spine of one ice and snow mage. This time, what Androni attached to the sword was not the starry sky fighting energy, but the ordinary fighting energy. After a sword, the remaining fighting energy would explode again, blowing the wounds of the three ice and snow mages into blood and flesh!
The inhuman screams of the three ice and snow mages, the terrifying wounds, and the blood beads and minced meat that scattered the surviving ice and snow mage guards. The blizzard magic lost its magic power to support for a while, and its power immediately weakened.
Androni slowly rose up, her movement seemed to be slow and fast, and she had arrived in front of Mora in an instant, and ran towards her, knocking her out in a diagonal manner. The "Demon Forbidden Realm" was finally forcibly interrupted.
Androni reached out to hold Mora who was about to fall from the air, slowly landed on the ground, and looked coldly at the people of the Silver Holy Sect.
Although the Silver Holy Sect has more than 200 snow palace guards, Rockefeller escaped and the Ice and Snow Mage was abolished three more. Not to mention that the magic power of Kalmon and others is far superior to that of ordinary ice and snow mages, the Eye of Wisdom, which has emerged in the number of mages alone, has now gained an absolute advantage. In addition to Androni, the situation on the battlefield has become one-sided.
Morra's face was pale, and blood was gushing out of the corners of her mouth. She was weak and leaning softly on Androni. Although she had been under the "Forbidden Demon Realm" for too long and her body was seriously damaged, Androni rescued her in time and Morra's life was saved.
Looking at the Silver Holy Sect's people who were confused and didn't know whether to fight or retreat for a moment, Androni asked, "What should we do with them?"
Mora's voice was weak and powerless, but the chill in his tone caught up with Rockefeller's blizzard magic: "All blood sacrifices! For the sake of the goddess, there is no tolerance in the holy war."
Since when, a bard once said: "A true adventurer, every drop of blood in his body is filled with the spirit of exploration and the desire for wealth."
Indeed, for millions of years, unknowns and wealth have attracted generations of adventurers to leave their warm homes and embark on an unknown journey. No matter it is the vast wasteland, the vast sea of sand, the vast ocean, the vast forest, the severe cold, the scorching heat, the wind, frost, snow and rain, it cannot stop the adventurers from walking.
The steep snow peaks are naturally no exception.
"Bronzebeard! Have you taken the wrong path? We have climbed all day and there is nothing but ice on it!" A heavy armored warrior as high as two meters roared violently. His face was ferocious, his skin was a little green, and he looked like he had a half-orc bloodline. The giant hammer weighing 100 kilograms in his hand was definitely not something that an ordinary human warrior could swing.
"I swear with my beard! It's definitely true here! Unless the map is marked with the wrong location! Jike, with your orc's wisdom, you still want to ridicule the geology and surveying skills of the alpine dwarves?" A dwarf wrapped in a very thick bronze armor roared. Although he was just as tall as the waist of the orc warrior, his voice was not small at all.
"Bronzebeard! Jike! Shut up for me!" A man dressed in a mage angrily shouted, "It sounded like a middle-aged man, with some evil and cruelty in his elegance. After stopping the reckless orcs and dwarves, he turned to the others and said, "The map should be here. Since we have already come up, search the entire peak. We will move me. The reward for the mission is worth our life!"
This is a team of more than 20 adventurers. The team has reasonable professional combinations and outstanding personal strength. It can be seen that such a team must have a prominent reputation in the human world.
To be continued...
