The cyan light spread from the two crystals at the same time, reflected in Tata's surprised eyes, and also dyed the faces of the maid and Baggins. They watched it spread to the surroundings like sea water, like a tide. Everything is swallowed up in an instant.
Before everyone had time to react, the blue light spreading in the air was already dazzling and dazzling. It formed a flashing cross star above Ayin Block, and another star was born in the tall fortress - although The steel monster is now in ruins, with broken steps supporting it standing among the ruins of Ayinbrok, like a damaged wonder.
The starlight rising from the dilapidated building was so bright that even though there were many obstacles, people could still feel the glare. The two staggered starlights reflected each other over the city, forming a strange scene.
That moment seemed particularly long to the citizens of Ayinbrok, and even more so to the chosen ones. It seemed as if time was frozen here, but it was all just an illusion, and the first person to react to this illusion was Naturally, it was the Imperial Dragon Knight in mid-air.
In fact, the moment the light appeared, Eberron de la Raven had already felt something. When he realized the problem, he ordered Andromeda to take action, but just as the giant construct that stretched across the sky lifted When he held up his long bow and planned to stop the teleportation——
An unreachable will locked onto him.
At that moment, the Oshu dragon knight only felt trembling. Ever since he stepped into this realm, he had never felt so small for a moment. It was as if the whole world was standing against him. He looked up in disbelief. With that shining starlight.
A familiar breath came.
And everyone almost felt that invincible will descending from the sky and locking onto everyone in the ruins of Ayinbrok.
Eberron opened his mouth with a horrified look on his face, but he could no longer make any sound. He could only shout in his heart: "War...Ms....?"
Why?
Every city in Oshur is a holy land for Ori and Angina, and this place is within the scope of the temple of the God of Knowledge. How could the goddess of justice Marlan descend here? A crazy light suddenly flashed in Eberron's eyes - it was that trial!
Exactly the same situation as that trial.
The gods cast their gaze and chose the people they wished for. The only difference was that this time the gods believed in by the Oshurs had reached an agreement.
Eyes lowered.
Two great wills are acquiescing to all this happening, and in the dark, Eberron seems to be able to sense that several great beings are descending on the city, one of them is compassionate to him, and the other is calm.
The remaining stern one took action to restrain him——
As for the remaining one...
Eberron's eyes gradually became confused, that was...
The smell of nature?
But he had no time to think too much, because it was at this moment that a deafening roar suddenly came from the remaining mobile fortress. The rolling roar filled with anger was like a distant thunder in the sky. Under everyone's gaze, Below - a huge black shadow is flying out of the fortress.
It formed a huge shadow in mid-air, like a dragon, but people have rarely seen a dragon with seven horns. It was walking proudly in the sky, with golden flames flashing in its eyes, just like the world. Doomsday, disaster destroys the world.
That was exactly what was described in the prophecy.
The black wings of the sun covered the sky, endless darkness swallowed the world, and then the fire of Venus fell into the dust.
Towers fell, empires fell.
The people on the ground watched that scene with their mouths wide open.
In fact, Alessa didn't think that much. Starlight could not transfer its will, not to mention that it was incompatible with this world. The moment Fang Plover, Miya, Sylvide, and Jita disappeared, this dragon Then I realized it was bad——
She snatched up Luo Yu who was still in the fortress with one claw, and then flew out crazily.
Alessa knew that her biggest threat at the moment was the Imperial Dragon Knight, so the moment it left Ayinbrok Fortress, it had already revealed its dragon shape and launched a desperate attack on Eberron in mid-air.
The dragon queen walking in mid-air raised her paw and swung it at the Oshu dragon knight. Just as people imagined, the boundless darkness swallowed everything up. The imperial dragon knight in mid-air There was no time to react.
In fact, Eberron couldn't react.
He could only watch helplessly as the huge claw swung towards him, passing through his body like a sharp blade cutting tofu. He watched his body fall apart in mid-air, turning into a rain of blood, and falling from the mid-air. .
That was the last consciousness of this Imperial Dragon Knight.
Alyssa herself was stunned for a moment. In its heyday, a mere dragon knight was naturally no match for it, not to mention that Eberron was not the best among dragon knights. But in its current state, no matter how ordinary a dragon knight is, It's a tough opponent.
It originally thought there would be a fierce battle.
But what happened?
Could it be said that the dragon knights of the Oshurs are embroidered pillows that are strong on the outside but weak on the inside?
But the dragon didn't have time to think about this later, because it understood that it was far from out of trouble. How powerful the empire was still had a clear impression in its memory. Although it seemed that the Silver Helmet Guards had decayed, the empire could maintain it. There must still be some hidden methods to this day.
What's more, even the dragon knights in the empire are enough for it to drink a pot.
It didn't dare to stay longer. After looking around in astonishment for a week, it didn't notice anything unusual, so it flapped its wings and flew into the sky. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a tiny black dot.
To others, all that happened in an instant.
People watched helplessly as the shining stars disappeared in mid-air, and together with the Seven Seas Traveler there, they disappeared without a trace. And it was at that moment that the Ayinbrok Fortress, which had lost its power, was slowly falling to the ground, making a deafening roar.
Along with the twinkling stars in the fortress, they also disappeared——
Then the black shadow swept across the sky, darkening the entire sky above Ayinbrok. It seemed like the shadow of a giant dragon passed over the body of the dragon knight Eberron in mid-air, and the latter was cut into pieces as if there was no reaction. After breaking several pieces, the body fell from an altitude of several thousand meters.
Then the shadow of Andromeda also flickered and disappeared.
The sky became calm again.
Only the stunned crowd remained——
"What just happened?"
"Is that a dragon? I seem to have seen a dark dragon?"
People looked at each other and ran around asking each other. This sudden war seemed to be over, just as inexplicable as it happened.
Why would His Majesty, the Supreme Emperor of the Empire, target the Dragon Alchemist from Kaulin-Ithurion? His handwriting came from the imperial capital, so he definitely didn't arrive in Ayinbrok today, and people quickly realized it.
The Imperial Army has long been ready to assemble, but few people really know what happened in the Hall of the Holy King.
Only some scattered information is still circulating among the crowd, the chosen ones, and the crystal network that traverses the entire Aitaria. One by one, they come from all over the world, and even come to the other side of the star gate, so above the community A summary of that information soon appeared:
"The Empire has lost a great alchemist."
"There are two more dragon knights."
"Dragon Knight Eberron has been famous for a long time. He can be said to be one of the oldest dragon knights in the empire, but it also means that his star power is almost exhausted. If nothing else happens, he will probably have no chance of resurrection. ”
"And the whereabouts of the other dragon knight have not been found so far, and he is missing."
"The empire suffered a big loss this time, but how on earth did that guy do it...?"
Everyone was silent.
Yes, what the Dragon Alchemist actually did was the Dragon Knight.
Three dragon knights.
Until someone brought up the topic again: "Do you think this is like the battle where the World Sword became famous?"
"The world's most powerful sword has more than one person with this title."
"Of course it's that one."
There is only one.
They had almost identical experiences, were deviant, and defied the authority of the Super Competitive Alliance. In almost the same situation, they fought their own world-famous battle. Surrounded by the Twilight of the Gods, Moondust and the Rose Crusaders, a terrifying exchange ratio of one to twenty was achieved, thus making the world famous in one battle.
The Sword of the World, hence its name.
In that battle, Yuechen lost a dragon knight, and Twilight of the Gods lost a pseudo-dragon knight. Although there were rumors that the young lady’s old club had let the water go, but after all, that was just a rumor that was not trustworthy. Everyone knew that the young lady had no contact with her after leaving the Rosi Crusaders.
And this battle is even more amazing.
For some reasons well-known to the world, the combat effectiveness of the indigenous dragon knights is greater than that of the chosen dragon knights. What's more, the older generation of dragon knights like Eberron are even more experienced, and within the empire, they are better than the two Surrounded by the Oshur Legion and a fleet.
The final result was that the 17th Garrison Corps suffered heavy losses, a squadron was almost completely destroyed, and the empire lost many high-ranking nobles above the level of commander. Although most of them can still be resurrected, one great alchemist, two The loss of a dragon knight was enough to shock the world.
The battle at Ayinbrok Mobile Fortress can almost be said to be destined to be recorded in the history of the empire and the history behind the Aitaria Star Gate.
People gradually fell silent, realizing the birth of a new legend.
"Loofah is even far inferior to..."
"Everyone knows that she only left the Rose Crusaders after the Continental League, and that she became famous after going to the Second World."
"I didn't realize until you said that. They haven't even left for the second world yet..."
"How on earth did two dragon knights, one great alchemist, and the Imperial people fight a battle? What's even more frightening is that their opponents were almost unscathed. How on earth did they leave Ayinbrok?"
Questions were raised one after another, but no one could answer them.
Among those who were fortunate or unfortunate to have experienced all that, only a few people vaguely remembered that a powerful will had descended on Aiyin Bullock, but they were immediately distracted by the dragon shadow that covered the sky and the sun, and were shocked. Due to the death of an Imperial Dragon Knight.
There are even some rumors circulating in the market, claiming that a powerful dark dragon was sealed under the mobile fortress during the past war. When the fortress was activated again, this giant beast also had the opportunity to be unsealed.
The last thing they saw was the moment when the dark dragon escaped from trouble.
So people invariably thought of the prophecy: the old enemy will surely come again, and the fire of Venus will fall into dust.
But for a few insiders, the seven-horned dragon meant another concept. For a time, envoys from the empire, Kaolin-Ithurian, and the Hill of Giant Trees went to Rota. profound.
In the Mirra Temple, the many temples under the Pillar of Stars were in chaos, and priests were sent to the sealed place to find out.
Then a shocking news came out——
Dragon Queen Alyssa is out of trouble.
The whole world was shocked.
…
But at that moment, in the ruins of Ayinbrok, the elf princess Brianne held the Bow of the Far Star and stood looking up at the dissipating haze in the sky. At this moment, all the pressure in the air dissipated, leaving only Beautiful sunset and clouds.
When the shadows dissipated, the sky became extraordinarily bright and transparent, and the burning clouds stretched for thousands of miles, shining the first ray of light after the war on the devastated ruins. Although Aiyin Block was not destroyed, it was The central area of the city was almost reduced to dust.
The casualties are still being counted, and may eventually exceed five digits. The Imperials will naturally blame this account on Fang Plover and his team, or even on her, but Brianne naturally knows who is really responsible for this. Be aware.
However, the big shots don't care about the following thoughts. The arrogant nobles of the empire can naturally find an excuse to excuse themselves. The people can only hear the voice of the supreme emperor, and most of them will choose to believe and blindly obey. .
But she still remembers.
The elves of Avenquin still remember who started the war.
Even everyone who participated in the competition in the Hall of the Holy King will remember how the fuse happened.
Most of them may not make much noise, and no one will remember them, but just like the battle on Covenant Mountain, the seeds of recognition have been planted, and one day it will take root and sprout.
Brianne silently looked at the sunset, as if she was seeing the end of the empire. The Oshurs had bid farewell to the glorious era they experienced a thousand years ago. In that era, under the leadership of the great alchemist Ed, the empire once served as shoulder the important responsibility of preserving human civilization.
But now, the silver helmet no longer shines brightly.
The empire can no longer shoulder the heavy responsibility that the elves of Numerin entrusted to mortals. But when the nobles of Oshur deviate from their original mission, how much legitimacy is left for the empire's existence?
She saw the shadow of a war.
In fact, it is not a secret to various countries that the empire is preparing for war, not to mention that the major guilds are withdrawing manpower from the second world. This information is not a secret to people who live at a certain height.
And as Ed said, that war will first start from the southern border of the empire, burning up the jungle, and even engulfing the entire world. However, this destined to be unjust war will first engulf the person who ignited it.
But under the seemingly beautiful appearance of the Oshur people, Brianne had already seen the crumbling empire. The dispute between the magicians and the alchemists was just the beginning. The shock and confusion of the craftsman guild leader at that moment was exactly like this. portrayal.
The interests that the nobles of the empire are eating away at are most likely based on themselves, but once the fire that sweeps the world breaks out, the empire's people will no longer be able to control it.
All countries are preparing for this. Every guild, and even the Super Competitive Alliance on the other side of the Star Gate, everyone has seen the doomsday scene, but not many people have really made bold decisions for this, but nothing can be done. To save it, someone has to stand up and take responsibility for it.
The elf princess couldn't help but think of those young people.
That little guy.
Was his decision made in the Hall of the Holy King?
And is the choice you make considered another decision?
The orders from Corin-Ithurion, the will of the young King and the Governor, the decisions of the Artisans Association, and the decisions of those on the other side of the Star Gate, all these decisions determine the direction and destiny of this world. .
But Ed still chose another path, and at that moment he openly broke with those people.
Of course she does too.
Naturally the Elven Queen is too.
But after everything was over, Brianne felt a little impulsive for the first time. Is she really ready to bring the elves into this war sweeping the world? But after a brief hesitation, she was sure, and she realized that the impulse might be inevitable.
In fact, war has long been inevitable, so what difference does it make in her choice?
The little guy actually saw through this before he did.
The elf princess was looking back from the clouds in the sky, looking at little Fritz, the only remaining dragon knight in the empire, walking toward her in the smoke.
The other party's brows were furrowed and she looked in this direction with concern. He stopped not far away and said to her from a safe distance: "Her Royal Highness Princess Brianne, if you are here to target Ayin Bullock or the Empire, , then you succeeded."
"But now, please stop there," little Fritz warned, "unless you want to take action again, but this time you will fight to the death."
"So," Brianne smiled and put down the longbow in her hand, "What are you going to do to me, little Fritz."
"I won't do anything to you, Your Royal Highness," little Fritz said. "You killed the great alchemist Amasite. The empire must keep you, but what happens after that has nothing to do with you. The empire has nothing to do with you." I will give you fair treatment."
Brianne looked at the Imperial soldiers who were surrounding them.
Seriously, little Fritz can't keep her alone. If she takes action, these ordinary people will suffer heavy casualties. But she stayed here just for Fang Pliance and his party, and just to fulfill her duties as the leader of the Kaolin-Ithulian delegation.
No matter what kind of orders come from the country, the Elven Quinn has the will and freedom of her own choice. She can distinguish what is right and what is wrong, and is not subject to the control and restraint of His Majesty the King and the Prime Minister.
This was exactly the reason why she chose to stay. The Oshu people had a blood feud with the Avenquin elves, and her pride did not allow her to bow her head in front of the empire.
But now Fang Pliance and his party have left. Although she doesn't know what means she used, her goal has been achieved, and it is meaningless to take action again except to increase casualties. She is the hero of the Battle of Byrne, the daughter of the Elven King Avenquin. It is impossible for her to escape from here like a fugitive. It is better to put down her weapons decently.
The Empire would not judge her.
What remains is the diplomatic affairs between the Oshurs and the Corin-Ithurian Alliance. His Majesty the King will probably be very angry, but for the sake of the Elvenquin elf, he will not abandon her or ignore her. It's not just a problem with elves.
It is also a question of the covenant between humans, elves, dwarves and gnomes.
This is due to her identity.
So Brianne just smiled and put down the weapon in her hand: "Little Fritz, the weather is good today."
She looked at Yunxia in the distance and said.
The imperial dragon knight had a solemn face and said nothing.
This day is undoubtedly a heavy day for the empire. Although there is still no news about the dragon knight who went to Ayinbrok Fortress, it is difficult to say that he has died. After all, there is still starlight in his body.
However, the great alchemist was destined to have a short time after this battle, and the dragon knight Eberron died directly. The empire has lost a dragon knight since then.
Fritz could almost predict how the Emperor would view all this and how furious he would be.
Before the empire went to war with the Great Council, the country had already lost important combat power.
All this seems to cast a heavy shadow on the war that is being prepared.
