Chapter 120 The Duke of Marne and Tutor Helen
[Understanding the ultimate move - New Moon]
Roja was quite calm and had expected this.
He waved the spear gently, and a white crescent several meters wide drew out from the tip of the spear and flew forward.
"Boom." A waist-thick tree was cut into two pieces and covered with a layer of white frost.
"Dong dong dong——" Then came the second and tenth one! The hundredth tree!
In the blink of an eye, trees hundreds of meters ahead were destroyed, and hundreds of thick trees on the path were cut in half and covered in silver.
This is my "extreme cold sword energy"...
Luo Ya's heart moved and he struck with his left hand.
"Boom!"
Another white crescent appeared, cutting the rock on the side into two pieces. The fracture was as smooth as a mirror and covered with a layer of white frost.
This is similar to the magical sword energy wielded by Kate, Sword Demon and others, but it is many times more powerful.
This is a skill that can only be understood by masters. It may be a unique skill passed down to them by the first generation of sword demons or ancient dragon slayers.
But their own realm is not enough, so they cannot exert their true power.
And he can draw inferences...
Luo Ya stretched out a finger,
and a pure white finger light shot out instantly, leaving a deep hole in the rock wall, and wisps of white mist came out.
This kind of power can easily cut off enchanted swords, penetrate enchanted shields, and enchant armor.
Roja's heart moved, and he swung his palm to strike at the bone spurs on the armor.
"Boom!"
The bone spur did not move at all, but a thin shallow mark appeared on it.
Chrissy on the side was already dumbfounded: "Even General Skeleton's crystal gun is only as powerful as this..."
Really?
Roja was not surprised, nodded, and continued to practice his spear with his head down...
On
the other side, Border Town, the market center.
The mage Cavin was standing here, staring blankly at the blood-red ground.
A week has passed, and the ice and snow have melted and disappeared, but the remaining blood color is still there, and the cold and despairing breath of death is still there.
On the battlefield where the Frost Giants once raged, hungry rats stayed far away, and even birds did not dare to fly overhead.
The mage murmured, "Everyone in the Eagle Group has disappeared..."
His memory stayed at the time when Genos and Finn imprisoned him and walked out of the house.
Everything that happened after that: What did you go through these days? How did he end up lying unconscious on the street? How do valuable things disappear?
I don't remember any of it, completely forgotten.
It was as if there was an extremely terrifying being that had erased part of his memory.
And the only one in this area who can do this is the Skeleton General of the Undead Mountains.
What happened here can also be inferred:
when the Church of Light tried Philip, he may have felt threatened. The skeleton general who never left the mountains came in some way and attacked everyone here with his men.
The Eagle Group was defeated so easily, and most of the people were defeated.
I don’t know if anyone else survived...
Kavin stood in front of the ruins, feeling deeply confused.
He joined the Eagle Group not long ago.
When he left the labyrinth city Orario, he didn't know what to do. Soon after returning to the Empire, he was attracted by Genos and Finn to join the Eagle Group.
Although he is incompatible with most mercenaries, he at least feels his value here, can help weak companions, and is deeply trusted by people.
"It turns out that even after returning to the empire, I'm still so useless..." Kavin shook his body and leaned weakly against the wall.
In the dungeon, his adventure team unexpectedly encountered awakening-level monsters, and most of them were killed in the blink of an eye. Only he relied on his teammates to delay time one by one, and finally survived by using super magic to repel the monsters.
Because of this incident, he felt deeply that he was weak and powerless, and left Orario in extreme sadness, leaving the dungeon that was too dangerous for him.
I thought that after returning to the empire, I would no longer feel that sense of powerlessness and despair, but I didn't expect that almost the same thing happened again.
"Let's go, leave..."
Cavin was in a daze and murmured: "It's pointless for me to stay in the empire. I'd better go back, back to Orario..."
He didn't know how many people in the Eagle Group were still alive. , but I don’t have the face to see them.
"Ugh——!!"
With a loud cry,
the unicorn unfolded its huge light wings, carried the mage to high altitude, and gradually disappeared into the distance.
...
A few days later,
on the other side, on the border of the Holy Empire, in the territory of the Duke of Marne.
This great aristocrat who hired a group of eagles to defeat the Skeleton General, owned a large territory and wealth, controlled the army, and was extremely powerful in the empire.
He was smiling at this time and was very enthusiastically hosting a banquet for a distinguished guest from afar,
- —Caven’s teacher, the mage who has truly entered the realm of awakening, the water mage Helen.
This powerful magister was originally a minor nobleman of the Holy Empire, so he still maintained a nominal connection with the royal family of the empire.
The Duke of Marne said: "Teacher Helen, what are you here to do?" Sitting
opposite him was a woman wearing a lake-blue mage robe, black curly hair, blue eyes, and a rather old-fashioned face.
Helen lowered her head to cut the steak with a table knife and said calmly: "One of my students wrote to me." "Oh...
"
The Duke of Marne nodded as if he had no idea. The other party didn't say much, and neither did he. Will ask more.
"Teacher Helen, actually I have something to ask you for help."
After the meal, the Duke said: "The Skeleton General of the Mountains of the Dead..."
"I won't take action."
Helen wiped her mouth with a napkin and said calmly Said:
"That is one of the rare monsters designated by the guild for protection, and adventurers are prohibited from hunting it.
"And hundreds of years ago, its soul was implanted with a control spell by the legendary mage, and it cannot leave the protection of the Undead Mountains. Half a step away, there is no reason to fear that it will invade the empire. The female
mage looked at the Duke of Marne with indifferent eyes:
"So I am very interested. Why do you want to kill it?" What's the secret? "
Alas..."
Duke Marne sighed and smiled bitterly, "You misunderstood... I'm just worried that sooner or later it will threaten the security of the empire." Helen
's eyes narrowed, as if she didn't believe what he said.
The Duke of Marne continued: "Moreover, that monster may not always stay in the mountains."
"I received news that just eight days ago, it took action and killed a mercenary group I hired.
"The location was in a small town, and it was no longer within the scope of the Undead Mountains. Speaking of which, the mercenaries were still What a bunch of trash..."
"What did you say? Helen
frowned and suddenly interrupted Ma En, "The mercenary group you are talking about is not called the Eagle Group, right?" "
