Chapter 49 The Undying King
After hearing Laura's stubborn words, Ryan looked at her tightly pursed lips and firm expression. He opened his mouth as if he was going to persuade him, but finally sighed like giving up.
When he was a child, he had a short time with Laura. From then on, Ryan knew that the seemingly delicate little loli was actually better and more independent than a boy.
Shaking his head helplessly, Ryan chuckled nostalgicly, "You haven't changed at all... It seems that nothing I say is useless."
"but!"
When Laura showed joy on her face, Ryan adjusted her face and solemnly warned, "Try to follow me along the way, and don't force it out at will."
"I recognize your awareness as the daughter of the lord, and agree that you will witness the situation of this Saint Maiden City with your own eyes, but please don't make it difficult for me to do it. Without tactical guides, you cannot cause much damage to these ghosts."
Laura was unwilling to bite her lower lip and thought for a while, but in the end she nodded rationally and said, "I understand, I won't be your obstacle, but please let me witness it until the end."
"What exactly happened in this city of the residence of Leannu Sandrot, the Saint of Gun, and why so many monsters appeared. As the descendants of the Iron Cavalry team led by the Saint of Gun, I have an obligation to understand this."
Ryan smiled freely and said, "That's all. Although I still haven't figured out what's going on in this city, based on the two empty and illusion beads we have collected, one time attribute bead should be needed to continue moving forward."
Laura nodded, “I have visited this city many times when I was a child. These monsters did not appear here before. If I remember correctly, there is a rooftop on the upper level connecting the left and right wings. Let’s go there and take a look.”
With a tour guide who was familiar with the road, Ryan's next action became much smoother. After killing many ghost monsters along the way, the two found the last black time-attribute orb on the rooftop.
"Um……"
Ryan looked at the three orbs placed in front of him and was a little embarrassed. He turned to look at the tall girl with a perfect figure beside him and asked, "Laura, do you know any other way? We need a device to place these orbs to open the passageway."
Laura held her chin with one hand and thought for a while, "The rest of the road... except for the firmly closed door at the bottom of the left wing, there is only a small platform on the top of the castle."
"When I came here before, there was nothing, but now it's hard to say in such a weird situation. Do we want to go there and see?"
Ryan shrugged and said, "There are no other choices? We have been circling all over the other areas of the castle, and the only possibility is that there."
Under Laura's leadership, the two carefully passed through the corridor outside the historic Saint City and finally arrived at the top platform Laura mentioned.
Seeing the three round grooves in the center of the platform, Ryan found two of the orbs. "It seems that there is no suspense. Let's see what happens after installing the orbs. Laura, you are also ready. If the situation is not right, retreat to the city immediately."
After some attempt, the two placed the three orbs of time and space illusion on the grooves in a certain order. The Qilin Gong, which was running on Ryan, immediately noticed the sharp changes in the attributes of the seven stars around him.
He called Laura to take a few steps back, and said with a serious expression, "What's wrong! The properties of the seven stars around him have changed drastically again. Something should be coming out."
The three orbs placed on the groove of the platform emitted the last glimmer of light and finally disappeared out of thin air. At the same time, a translucent phantom with a staff in his hands suddenly appeared in the center of the top platform.
"Yeah!"
Sharp screams came from the mouth of the translucent ghost, and the strong sense of pressure made both Ryan and Laura instinctively pull out their weapons and prepare for battle.
Ryan took the time to glance at Laura and said seriously, "Laura, you retreat to the outer corridor first. This kind of monster and previous ghosts should come from the same source. It is difficult for physical attacks to have an effect on it."
Laura shook her teeth, and slowly retreated under the gaze of the leader monster. After she left the other party's aura, she said to Ryan with a complicated expression, "I'm sorry... I can only let you fight alone, you must win, Reinhardt."
Ryan, who was staring at the chief monster, did not speak, but gave Laurabi a thumbs up with his empty left hand.
It can be roughly judged from the other party's staff that this ghost, who is called the Immortal King by Ryan, should be a spell-based specialist.
‘Since that’s the case… I’ll take the attack first, and I can’t let him use large spells at will.’
The sword in Ryan's hand quickly ignited a raging flame, and an arc-shaped red wave of light flew out from the sword and flew towards the Immortal King.
"Moon shadow, the combination of the two styles of Origin, breaking the air!"
As Ryan expected, the huge ghost of this magic system was not very flexible in movement, and the sword energy burning with flames successfully slashed the Immortal King's chest.
"ah!!"
A painful wailing sound came from the Immortal King's spirit body. Ryan suddenly felt the concentration of the Phantom Attributes around his body increased rapidly. It seemed that the other party was preparing to cast the Phantom Magic.
"Not that easy! Yan Zhuo Kill!"
Ryan, who was approaching quickly, split three sword lights in his hand and hit the Immortal King with his sword. The power of fire invaded the enemy's body disrupted the balance of the seven-star attributes in the Immortal King's body, and the magic in the opponent's driving was interrupted.
"Ao!"
Just as Ryan was planning to pursue the victory, a howl similar to a sonic attack suddenly came from the mouth of the Immortal King. Ryan suddenly felt that his eyes were dark and he had briefly lost consciousness at the critical moment of the battle.
Laura, who was watching the battle from a distance, saw the Immortal King lifting a huge staff to hit Ryan, and couldn't help but whisper a reminder, "Reinhart! Wake up!"
When Ryan shook his head and woke up, the Immortal King's huge staff was already in front of him. In a hurry, he could only hurriedly raise the sword and cross it in front of him, trying to block the opponent's powerful and heavy blow.
"boom!"
At this moment, a golden energy spear suddenly shot out from a certain mountain in the distance, and after a short period of flight, it was accurately nailed to the back of the Immortal King.
The sharp fighting spirit contained in the spear burst out immediately, and in a flash, the pain and wailing immortal king energy turned into a black glimmer of light.
Ryan, who survived the disaster, had no time to be glad. He used his high-speed maneuverability of the wind-type, to immediately rushed to the fence of the outer corridor. However, when he looked at the hill where the spear was fired from a distance, he could only vaguely see a few strands of golden hair floating by.
