The hall fell silent for an instant, and everyone watched this scene motionless and shocked as if they were possessed.
Amasite, the great alchemist of the empire, had an expression of inexplicable disbelief on his face. He slowly lowered his head to look at the feather arrow that was still trembling in his chest. He instinctively reached out to grab it, but it was as if he had caught a ghost.
There the world collapsed like quicksand, his fingertips turned into dots of white light, and his whole body flew away like a firefly. The great alchemist Amasite fell backwards. Someone caught him, but only caught a piece of passing light.
"The Great Alchemist is dead!"
There was a terrifying scream from the crowd.
A terrible shiver was passing through everyone, as if an unconscious gaze was scanning the hall of the Holy King. It was cold and tough, and it was impossible to get rid of, because the death of a great alchemist triggered the empire's crisis. Reaction mechanism, the Dragon Knight has arrived.
Stationed one hundred and forty miles away from Ayinbrok——
On the Clover Plain, the dragon knight Eberron Delaraven in the coal mining area was talking to someone. He suddenly stopped and looked back in the direction of Aiyin Block.
The officials in the mining area looked at the scene that happened next in disbelief. A huge shadow appeared behind them. It was a construct with half a human on top and a shark body on the bottom. The first long bow was suspended in mid-air about forty meters above the ground.
That's Eberron's Dragon Rider build, Andromeda.
Since the last war, it has become a consensus that the Dragon Knight configuration is almost impossible to be summoned in the first world.
Even though there was turmoil in Ayinbrok a few months ago, only one pseudo-Dragon Knight appeared under such circumstances. The Empire only used their Dragon Knights, but did not reveal the Dragon Knight construct during the suppression.
Of course, that also gave Ming a face, indicating that the imperial people treated the Construct Queen as the same as a dragon knight.
People looked at that scene in horror, watching as the dragon knight's figure gradually faded, and finally disappeared together with the huge construct behind him.
"what happened?"
"It's the direction of Aiyin Block again, what's wrong?"
"It was just a few months ago. I heard it was because of the Construct Queen. This time..."
But the changes don't stop there.
Sharp alarms were ringing throughout Lavender. Near the central tower of this trading city, people saw a stream of light rising into the sky and flying westward.
Immediately afterwards, the Seventh Legion of the Empire stationed nearby began to take action, and the messengers scattered out. In less than a quarter of an hour, the sky was filled with dark shadows of ships. Half an hour later, people got the exact news.
Lord Fritz Hamilton, commander of the 7th Legion and a hero of the Empire, another Imperial Dragon Knight, has left Lavender.
But where he went, no one knew.
Dragon Knight's response speed is amazing.
It doesn't mean there will be any delay just because they are stationed hundreds of miles away from Ayin Block.
Fang Yu was the first to feel the pressure. A faint sense of oppression was coming from outside the hall. Dragon Queen Alessa screamed in his mind:
"Boy, we're in big trouble!"
But he raised his head and looked at the deep patio of the vault, where a bright beam of light was being cast, but the dust floating in the light was completely still, as if there was an invisible force binding them -
A dragon knight arrives.
The first to arrive was Eberron Delaravin, together with his Andromeda. When the fairy volleyed, everyone stopped breathing. The tourists, imperial soldiers, and craftsmen who were filming all this on the street. .
There seemed to be a singular point in their sight, like the horizon of a black hole, making it impossible for all light to escape, drawing their eyes into it. Andromeda raised her long bow, and the whole world was directed to a point on the arrow. .
Eberron turned around and glanced down. The tourists in the twelve blocks leading to the central area of the Artisan District simultaneously felt that they were disconnected from the system, and the terminal in their hands became a useless thing. All the ongoing broadcasts and The video is cut off at the same time.
The screen went dark.
Even from the other side of the screen, the sight was nerve-wracking.
"Is that the Dragon Knight?"
"... It's scary. Even the great gods I've seen in super competition are not like this."
"Nonsense, that look was aimed at us!"
"But we are just watching the live broadcast, are we not on this side of the Star Gate?"
Everyone is beating the drum in their hearts.
The dragon knight arrived, and now those Kaolin people were finished.
No one knew what was happening in the Hall of the Holy King, but a dragon knight arrived and announced the failure of the Seven Seas Traveler's breakout. It was an existence at a different level. No one believed that the Dragon Alchemist could survive in such a situation. Escape.
In Aiyin Block, that calm glance shocked everyone in the many blocks. Many people even sat on the ground with their legs weak. Some people fainted from fright, while the selected people who were walking through those streets They are slightly better, but limited.
The Chosen One named Horizon was leading his adventure group through an alley near Bellsmith Street. He looked up from time to time, and the scene in the sky gave him a great shock. .
"It's the Dragon Knight!"
Someone in the group already exclaimed.
"And there are more than one. This is going to be a lot of fun. Everyone, when the fortress started moving, I knew that this plot mission was not trivial."
"Shut up, this is not a plot mission," Horizon turned back to the others, "Be careful, our opponents are not indigenous people."
"I know, Dragon Alchemist," the man said not caring much, and shrugged, "Just a craftsman, guys from the third division dare to go to the first division to run wild, maybe the Continental League gave them Too much confidence?”
Everyone couldn't help but chuckle.
Obviously everyone thinks so.
What level of competition is the Continental League?
However, those Imperial Alchemists are really embarrassing, and what about the Imperial Twin Stars? Their results have been unsatisfactory since the last term, and the little girl named Loofah has become even more famous.
Horizon shook his head, "The other party is also a combat craftsman, so you'd better be careful."
Everyone calmed down a bit. It was a consensus that combat craftsmen were extremely difficult to deal with.
But this part-time job is different from that part-time job, and most people understand this. Many alchemists have some skills as a combat craftsman, but people are different.
Being able to control a clockwork fairy with one or two hands is also called a part-time job, and someone like the blue lady Virus is also called a part-time job. The two are obviously not the same.
Horizon was obviously deeply disappointed by this. "Before I came here, I checked the videos related to it on the community," he said to everyone, "many of them were related to fighting. Obviously the other party is not an ordinary person."
Among the relevant attack missions issued by the Adventurer's Guild, most of them assist the Imperial Army in attacking, and almost all missions near the central area are taken over by elite teams.
Horizon and his team can be considered elite if they can reach here. They can attack teams above level 20, but if the opponent is a combat craftsman, they need to strengthen two or three people to target one person.
He checked the battle in the southern border, and the level shown by the other party was very impressive. Not only was the other party a qualified combat craftsman, but he was also the best in it, and his level was at least above that of a high-level craftsman.
But that's all.
As for the latter part, they were temporarily entering this area for a mission, so of course it was impossible for him to watch all the videos one by one.
What's more, he had also watched the video. The battle in the southern border only happened a year ago. A year is not a short time for the chosen ones, but it is not long either. Can they still go to heaven?
For the selectors at this stage, this time may be too much to even level up.
Because generally speaking, a freely chosen person will have a career life of about twenty years after entering the Star Gate, and most of them will complete the apprenticeship stage in the first year after being selected. Generally speaking, they will reach 6 class.
It will then take another two years to reach level 10, and then reach level 15 at a rate of two levels per year, reaching level 20 before half of the career life span is completed. Most people will start to decline in their professional status at this time and enter the retirement preparation period.
In the end, about two-thirds of the people will stay at level 25 before leaving Etalia, and only one-third of the remaining people will reach level 30 or so - Scarpe and Querod are among this third , Scape was level 27 before she retired, while Querod was slightly higher, level 29.
However, Fang Yu once suspected that the two had lost experience in the battle with Bain. Otherwise, judging from the level of the stars, their levels should be much higher than this.
Among the remaining one-third, only a small number of people will be able to break through the restrictions of high-level professions and get the opportunity to go to the second world.
If you enter the second world, the career life of the Chosen will be extended by five to six years, and you will leave Etalia before the age of forty, eventually reaching level 40 or even 45, which is already the elite among the Chosen. among the elite.
For selectors who have a guild or professional club behind them, this ratio is much higher, about double that of ordinary selectors.
Of course, only one out of ten people can truly pass through the gates of the world.
However, this rule does not apply to those who are the best, the elites and the proud ones. Odin, the warrior king of Corrin-Ithurion, had already reached level 20 when he was seventeen years old. At that time, he had only entered the Star Gate for four years. That’s it, nearly six years faster than ordinary people.
The Ranger King Ye Hua was slightly slower than him, but it only took him five years.
And even if Horizon calculates Fang Plover's level in the most cautious way, that is, treating him as a reserve member of the Ten Kings, it is naturally impossible to conclude that he will be promoted to five levels in one year. You must know that that is level 20-25, and Not level 1-5.
So he checked with others again and arranged everyone's tasks one by one.
"There is at least one elementalist and a naturalist among them. Oberz, you go deal with the elementalist. I will send two more naturalists. Our task is to sneak into the A5 area of the fortress. We may not meet the real master. .”
In Horizon's view, the team members formed around a core combat craftsman should not deviate too far from their own level. Therefore, in his view, as long as they do not encounter an entire Seven Seas Brigade——
Then his team should be able to handle it.
Everyone who received the task also nodded.
After all, they are the one with the numerical advantage, and there are dragon knights in the sky taking care of them, so there is no chance that anything will go wrong.
For the selectors from the Empire, this regional mission was an unexpected surprise. Although the firepower of the Mobile Fortress greatly exceeded their expectations, many teams were wiped out along with the Imperial Army when they attacked the outer perimeter.
But there is no way for the Chosen One to perform their mission without losses. Anyway, half an hour later there was another group of heroes in the temple. This was not a dead zone, so they were not afraid at all.
Everyone is just excited.
But that's just wishful thinking on their part.
When the opened space door engulfed Luo Yu and Laila, the two first experienced a strange and bizarre scene - like stars turning into streams of light, quickly retreating back around them, leaving behind a trail of light.
All the light converged at a point behind him, and when he looked forward - there was only a emptiness and darkness in front of him, as if his line of sight had been stretched into a line.
However, Luo Yu was very familiar with this scene. He realized that he had entered a space gate and was under the effect of a teleportation spell. The scene seen by a space spell similar to a dimensional gate or teleportation array was almost the same as this.
It's not that the lights are going backwards, it's that they're moving forward.
That scene only lasted for a moment, and then the door opened in front of him again. The situation was hard to describe, as if a world suddenly extended from the black line in front, unfolding everything from a very small point. scene.
Before he and Laila had time to react, a long and narrow alley appeared in front of them, and the Oshu people on the other side of the alley were looking at them in surprise.
That is, Horizon and the members of his adventure group, the selectors of the first division. Some people reacted quickly, pointed at Luo Yu and shouted, "Those are the members of the Seven Seas Brigade. I have seen them in the Adventurer's Guild." The shape, that’s what the element makes.”
"Get him!"
This place was already close to the mobile fortress, and it was possible to encounter any opponent. Horizon reacted immediately and shouted.
But another space door opened, and a traveling stick stretched out from it, stopping the selectors from the first division in front. Then a wizard walked out and looked up at them, with a little light shining in his dark eyes. .
The woman wearing a pointed wizard's hat didn't say much to them. She raised her hand and pointed at them. A green lightning burst out from her fingertips. The lightning hit the person in front first and directly dissociated it into a piece of dust. Even to the person behind him.
The man was shocked and took a step forward. His legs below the knees seemed to be separated from him, breaking into pieces of dirt. Then his whole body fell heavily to the ground, like a collapsed statue, turning into fragments and dust. .
Eventually it turned into a puff of dust.
"Disintegration Ray!"
Everyone in the Horizon Brigade felt horrified when they saw this scene. It was a seventh-level spell. The opponent was at least a magician of level 40 or above, and he cast the spell with just raising his hand, without any sound or gesture components.
The explanation may go far beyond that.
But they couldn't bear the origin of this sorceress at all. She didn't exist in the portrait of the Seven Seas Brigade, but she had the magic book floating in her hand. At least they knew her, "She...she is a natural history student." .”
"But it's not the one in the portrait!"
"There are two naturalists in the Seven Seas Brigade?"
Many people feel that their worldview has been overturned.
Horizon felt both fearful and jealous. How could there be such an adventure group? The adventure group formed by Loofah and Gray King FOX when they were young was not like this. Do they really regard naturalists as cabbages in the field?
What's more, they could clearly see the magic gloves on Luo Yu's hands at this time, and Laila standing behind the elementalist. The girl hadn't completely disconnected from the star track, her eyes flashed with silver fire, and her body was covered with The light track of the etheric circuit.
Anyone could tell it was an arcane puppet at a glance.
"That's a magic doll!"
"That's the battle craftsman, he..." The voice of the man behind Horizon was knotted, and he was no longer as contemptuous as before. After all, as long as there were no fools here, a seventh-level spell or above would be enough to defeat everything they relied on.
Horizon didn't look back and said, "Escape!"
At this moment, he had seen the image of the witch clearly. It was not that he recognized the origin of the other party, but he saw that the witch was holding a little girl in her arms. He recognized the girl with a lowered head and a round face. The origin of the little girl sleeping with glasses.
That is the naturalist of that graphic counterpart.
And he only needed to take a look at the two magic books floating next to the witch, and he couldn't help but feel his scalp numb. The other party was obviously from the Seven Seas Brigade, but most outsiders didn't know it.
But the two naturalists, Horizon simply couldn't bear to fight with each other.
A young naturalist around level 20 is fine, but a naturalist around level 40 is not inferior to a combat craftsman, and can even be compared with the pseudo-dragon knight.
It's a pity that the witch didn't seem to intend to let them leave. She looked at these people with a calm expression. She just clicked her fingers together, and green lightning shot out one after another. To her, it seemed like she was just performing a magic trick. Just as easy.
Lightning shuttled among the crowd, turning all the Oshu people in the alley into fly ash in just a moment, and even affected other teams entering from the other end of the alley. Luo Yu watched the green lightning as a network. Intertwined in the alleys.
In an instant, thirty or forty selected people were wiped out.
Then she stopped.
The woman looked back.
Laila was startled and took a step back subconsciously.
But Luo Yu was very calm, because he had already seen the girl in the sorcerer's arms. Miss Scholar tilted her head slightly, her face was white, her eyes were slightly closed, she looked unconscious, and her messy hair was flat and smooth. On the forehead.
The woman put one hand around the girl who fell limply in her arms, then raised her head to look at Luo Yu and Laila. She let go of her magic wand and let it float in the air, and gently pushed it with one hand. He adjusted his small glasses on the bridge of his nose and smiled at the two of them.
Luo Yu looked at the witch who looked like a scholar lady, and then looked at the person in his arms: "Jita?"
"Did you recognize it?"
Luo Yu frowned at this incredible scene, then nodded and said, "I recognize your magic book. The magic book will only recognize one owner in a person's life until its starlight dissipates. "
He paused and said, "Although naturalists can use different spells, Jita itself is a protective school. When I saw you cast the disintegration ray, I felt that it was roughly the same."
He looked at the other party, "So what exactly is going on?"
"As expected of you, but it's a long story."
The wizard looked down at the girl sleeping peacefully in his arms.
"She saw the future from the eyes of Carl Layer. In order to allow you to escape from Ayinbrok smoothly, she used the power of the reader to summon another self from the time scale, that is, me, about ten years ago. Her years later.”
This sounded unbelievable, and even Laila couldn't help but said: "Can the magic book be like this? Miss Jita, the spell you used to take us out of Rocha Bedi Academy was a super-circle spell, right? You now……"
The woman shook her head, "Although the book of time is called time, it does not actually have the ability to move on the time scale. This body is just what she imagined what she should look like in the future, and what my current personality is, of course. So is ability.”
As she spoke, she glanced at her chest and couldn't help but smile.
"But of course the magic book does not have the ability to make your wishes come true. The naturalist will have to pay a price for how much power he borrows from it." The wizard said again.
"What about Miss Kitta?"
"She's fine," the wizard shook his head, "If you want to summon yourself ten years later, you can't do it even if you suck her dry. This actually relies on the power of the Eye of Carleye. Only the power of the artifact can Such a thing can be done.”
"Eye of Carl Layer?" Luo Yu asked, "After leaving the temple, where did you track those people? You never contacted us again after that. What happened after that?"
"It's nothing big, everything went well," the wizard threw a silver box to him, "It's similar to the plan you and her had, but it's a long story, so I'll let her tell you slowly after she wakes up. The secrets behind this involving the Karleye family and the Seven Mage families are really hard to explain for a while."
She looked up at the sky.
After looking at the dragon knight in mid-air and the faint coercion coming from the sky for a while, she looked back and looked at the two of them again, "The power of the artifact has almost dissipated. I don't have much time. This is Brianne." The lady's star is located, and it doesn't take much effort to get it. But this battle, there will be a fierce battle behind - "
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stopped.
The two people present also felt heart palpitations at the same time. Luo Yu looked up and saw another stream of light streaking across the sky of Aiyin Block——
"There is no way to leave this place through the Ayin Block Mobile Fortress," the wizard said. "That's what she saw in that future. In addition, this little guy is also in your care."
As she spoke, she handed Kita in her arms over to her. Laila quickly caught it, and Miss Scholar's head rested softly on her shoulder.
Luo Yu was about to speak, but at this moment, a majestic aura descended from mid-air.
The second dragon knight arrived.
Then there was the third breath, and another dragon knight arrived at Ayin Bullock.
Laila looked up in that direction, her face turned pale, and right in front of the two of them, the sorceress nodded to them. Her figure was gradually turning transparent. She looked at the two of them and said with some seriousness:
"Attention, be careful of the light of the stars."
