"Helena, it's not polite to peek at other people's dates." Filia straightened her hair and said.
"Didn't you see me?" Helena deliberately exposed her body and made some noise. Rogge had his back turned to her and didn't notice, but Filia was facing her. With the strength of the new star of the empire, , she was sure that Filia discovered her.
"I saw it, but I was busy." Sure enough, Filia admitted directly.
"Then you are so...intimate in front of me, the princess. Who is rude?" For some reason, Helena wanted to compete with Filia when she saw her. Maybe the temperaments of the two are too similar. , the group of people who are also the best want to compete.
"Uh, Helena, let's get down to business." Rogge was finally able to stand still, took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped the nosebleed and said, "How much do you know about that red-black magic crystal?"
The walk between the two was more than just a date. Filia shared the information she saw in Helena's eyes with Rogge. Rogge thought carefully about the scene at that time, and it was indeed like this. Then Helena asked him last night. That's what I came here for.
"The red and black magic crystal...have you ever heard of the strange demon? We call it the strange magic crystal."
"Exotic magic crystal?"
"Yes, according to our speculation and investigation, the strange magic crystal does not belong to this world. It is like the magic core of Warcraft but not the magic core. It has a strong attraction to monsters and warcraft that are hungry for power. And..." Helena After a pause, he looked at the two of them.
"And what?"
"And the people who are most attracted to it are not these low-intelligent creatures, but you humans, our sea tribe, and other individuals in other intelligent races who are thirsty for power. The greater the desire, the less firm the mind, the greater the impact. .”
Rogge and Filia looked at each other, and both of them recalled Duluco's crazy and evil appearance.
"Have you ever seen people who have been corrupted by the influence of strange magic crystals?" Helena narrowed her eyes slightly. Like Filia, she is a person who can read information from people's subtle expressions and movements.
The information Helena told the two of them was very important, confirming some of their previous speculations and adding some details. In this case, the two of them are willing to confess to Helena.
Rogge said: "We have seen that he is Duruko, the son of the Grand Duke of Lanster of the Lion Family. He swallowed a strange magic crystal in front of us in the Secret Garden of Spiritual Beasts of the Holy Soul-Calling Kingdom, and then transformed. The appearance.”
"What has it become?"
Rogge had a particularly deep memory of what Duruko looked like at that time, and he could describe it without recalling it, “When we met him, he had two curved sharp horns on his head, dark red skin, and a huge and deformed hand. It can release tentacle attacks, and its size has also grown a lot, about two meters."
"After he swallowed the strange magic crystal, his momentum skyrocketed, and his whole body exuded a demonic energy that was visible to the naked eye. The horns on his head grew longer, his skin became darker, and his injuries recovered quickly."
Rogge described to Helena in detail what Duruko looked like before and after he swallowed the strange magic crystal.
"Well, similar to what I observed, there is also a Hai clan in Weihai Kingdom who has fallen, and it looks like this. After I killed him, I found a crystal similar to the strange magic crystal from the back of his head. Do you have any? Discover?"
"The situation was critical at the time. In order to make Duluco dead, we directly burned his body without opening his head." Rogge added some details, "In the final conversation, Duluco was in charge of the alien magic crystal. It’s called the Holy Stone. Moreover, Filia seriously injured Duruko for a time, and then Duruko seemed to be a different person, his moves and reactions were very different from before.”
Helena listened carefully, taking note of this information that she did not possess.
"Helena, how much do you know about Shark Demon?" Filia suddenly asked.
"Weak, somewhat brainy, numerous, dirty and ugly creatures, their existence is an insult to the ocean."
"Attention."
Filia warned aloud, pulled out the Crimson Flame Sword, recalled the strange sword skills of the Shark Demon leader she killed, and attacked Helena.
Faced with this strange attack, Helena, who had already reached the martial arts level, was suppressed by Filia for a moment. After five moves, she got used to it and used the back of the Poseidon Sword to resist Filia's sword. The fight was inextricable.
Rogge, who was watching, once again lamented Filia's super talent. Swordsmanship and knife skills seemed to have no threshold for her. She knew it after seeing it.
And it’s not as simple as knowing how to do it. Filia killed the leader of the Shark Demon with just one sword. Naturally, the weird sword technique she saw only had one style. The rest were her routines based on this sword technique. Created by yourself.
This is Filia's habit. She will summarize after every battle, not only summarizing herself but also summarizing her opponent, which is why she can grow so quickly.
The leader of the Shark Demon was the weirdest opponent she had ever encountered, so her summary last night was a little more extensive, so much so that she created a complete set of sword techniques based on that weird sword technique. It wasn't much, just thirteen moves.
Although the shark demon leader's posture when slashing people with the brass machete was ugly and twisted, Filia's swordsmanship had a different kind of agility and agility, which Rogge thought was the reason for her beauty.
After using the thirteen sword skills twice, Filia added a sword of her own unique skill, Flame Slash, which made the Poseidon Sword buzz. Then she turned around and stood still, sheathing the sword.
"Don't tell me that this is Shark Demon's sword technique." Helena said every word.
Filia's "pay attention" was to remind Helena that she was about to attack, and to make Helena pay attention to her sword moves.
As soon as the two girls fought, Helena felt something was wrong, and then she became more and more frightened, frightened by the weird sword moves and the exquisiteness of Filia's swordsmanship.
"I modified this from the Shark Demon leader's sword technique. What do you think?" Filia replied.
"It's very powerful, but the Shark Demon doesn't know how to use swordsmanship." The Shark Demon is a magical beast, so it is naturally impossible for him to know how to use swordsmanship, something that requires a deep understanding. Attacking relies more on instinct.
"...The Shark Demon leader did use a very weird sword technique, I'm sure." Filia took out the Shark Demon leader's magic core and showed it to Helena, "This is its magic core. It looks like a strange demon." Akira is exactly the same.”
"This looks more like a strange magic crystal than the crystal formed on the back of the head of the sea clan I killed!"
Rogge touched his chin with one hand and said: "Our previous speculation was that the strange magic crystal can attract monsters to eat it, causing blood to transform into a monster. If this kind of monster is allowed to develop, its magic will become stronger over time. The core will turn into a strange magic crystal. Now it seems that monsters, spiritual beasts, humans, sea tribes, etc., as long as creatures with thoughts and desires will be affected by it!"
"That's right." Helena turned to look at the sea, "Exotic magic crystals can not only give birth to monsters, but also make monsters stronger, allowing humans, sea tribes and other intelligent creatures to gain power that does not belong to this world, and induce them to gradually fall. , and eventually became the claws of the strange demon!"
"What exactly is a strange demon?" This was the second time Rogge heard this word from Helena.
"I have never seen a real strange demon, but there are ancient notes in the temple of our Weihai Kingdom: strange demons are creatures from another world. They invaded our world of Hestia through some method a long time ago in an attempt to They spread the alien magic crystals to develop minions and control our world, but they failed." Helena said slowly.
"Why didn't it succeed? Someone stopped it?"
"The reason is unknown. There is only so much information in the notes. I will tell you all."
Rogge and Filia fell into silence, thinking about Helena's information and their own findings.
After a while, Rogge spoke first, "Let's not talk about the reasons why the alien demons failed before. Now that the alien demon crystal has appeared again, does it mean that the alien demons have invaded again?"
"It's very possible." Helena said.
"We got news from the city defense army at Ipuni Port that the Weihai Kingdom is in trouble. Is the trouble a strange demon?"
"No, as I said, I have never seen strange demons. However, our troubles are indeed related to strange demons. Weihai Kingdom was attacked by monsters, and the number was more than a hundred times that of monsters here."
When the two of them heard this, their hearts trembled. There were hundreds of times more magical beasts here. How many of them would there be? Can Weihaiguo cope with it?
Seemingly aware of the two's worries, Helena smiled slightly and said: "The sea is vast, and the ocean is a three-dimensional living space. The number of creatures is beyond your imagination, and there are naturally countless monsters. With the help of strange magic crystals, these In my opinion, there are relatively few monsters."
"You don't have to worry about Wei Hai Country. After thousands of years of development, the four sea countries have become extremely powerful. I can proudly say that Wei Hai Country is the most powerful country in the world, bar none. If The invasion of alien demons occurred in the ocean, and I promise you that I will lead the people of the sea tribe to suppress the alien demons in the sea and never let them land on land!"
Helena's words made the two of them understand that the stunningly beautiful sea princess in front of them was extremely courageous and courageous. She must be an extremely good commander, and her status in Weihai Kingdom was probably lower than that of the king. .
"Is it true that no one has seen strange demons in all these years?" Filia asked.
"I also said that I like to listen to stories, and there happen to be a few unknown 'stories' related to this. It is rumored that the elves in the Nanyuan Kingdom and the Hess Forest to the south of you have dedicated demon hunters. The goal of the team is to hunt down the invading monsters."
"So there is someone silently guarding this world?"
"You can say that."
The two were silent again. What they heard today made them feel a little stranger to this world. It seemed that there were still many secrets hidden in the fog.
"Helena, thank you. This information is crucial to us, thank you for telling us everything." Rogge thanked him.
"You're welcome."
Filia asked curiously: "Why do you trust us so much?"
Helena smiled again, "Because I like you, and I've always judged people very accurately. You will definitely be at the forefront of the world in the future, just like me!"
"Standing at the forefront of the entire world..." Rogge pondered.
"What, you don't want to? It won't be up to you then." Helena circled around the two of them twice and returned to her original position, "Rogge, Filia, the world is getting more and more uneven, seize the time to improve yourself and do better. Be prepared."
"Understood." The two replied.
"Okay, that's all for today. Don't tell anyone except your most trusted companions. After all, people's hearts can be corrupted, and there will always be people who yearn for power regardless of the cost. I will personally tell Emperor Charles the information I have and discuss it with him. Countermeasures, who can say what and who cannot say, Emperor Charles will make his own judgment."
Rogge nodded in agreement. Emperor Charles' ability was still reliable. "I understand. Are you going to Odens?"
Odens, the capital of the empire, was the seat of Emperor Charles.
"Yes, we are on our way for now. By the way, this is for you." Helena took out a large blue-black conch and handed it to Roger.
"What's this?"
"This is the Tianya snail. The number of Tianya snails is very rare. The shells of paired Tianya snails have a magical function. As long as you speak into the shell at the beach, it will spread to my shell. Wait for me You can hear it when you're at the beach, and it's the same when I talk here."
"When you find valuable information, or if you have anything to ask me, please feel free to contact me." Helena shook another identical Tianya snail in her hand, "Of course, ordinary chatting is also possible."
After hearing this, Filia extended her hand to Rogge in front of Helena.
Rogge decisively handed Tianya Snail to her.
"Tsk." Helena shook her head, turned and walked towards the island, "Let's go, the storm is coming soon, pack up and get ready to hit the road."
