With the help of Arabella, Lemons finally had the opportunity to use his weapons.
The messenger's attack was swift and heavy, and his gloves were chopped to pieces. The paladin captain had no choice but to hold his sword with one hand and let the blade collide with a side slash straight to the left rib.
A bright golden flame burst out from the intersection of magic power.
If there is any material that can withstand the ravages of mysterious low temperatures, it must be a mysterious item of the same level. This weapon has a long history. Before it came into Lemons' hands, its owner was Cardinal Daniel Edgar. It wasn't until he entered the Cardinals from the Knights fifteen years ago that Lemons was able to take over the important task of the leader of the Holy Knights and the "Holy Sword Durandal".
Its appearance is eye-catching, but Joey has seen it many times. Even every ability attached to it is clearly understood by the messenger. In fact, the strength gap between Lemons and Joey was not as pessimistic as he imagined, otherwise the latter would never have given him the opportunity to fight him so many times. But Alexia's injury was such a huge blow to the Holy Knight Captain that he was almost defeated by one blow.
Joey won't show mercy just because of his opponent's condition.
His movements were faster than expected. Lemons blocked the slash, and he switched to a quick stab. Then the paladin swung away his stabbing sword, and he let go of his right hand, taking advantage of the situation to penetrate the short knife condensed on his left hand. Shelter barrier.
The silent cutting even brings out Mars. The aperture was not as strong as the magic spell Uriel used using the Scroll of Oath, and it disintegrated into dust under the cold front.
This brief moment was hard-won, and Lemons seized the opportunity to build up his strength. His magic flows from the soul's fire into the sacred sword, and the golden crystal of Durandal flickers until it shines brightly.
"Holy Commandment·Judgment of the White Night"!
The surging pressure broke away the airflow, turning into a golden-red meteor and slashing towards the young man's face. Joey released his weapon and pushed outward with both hands, and the ice curtain immediately rose from the ground.
"Ice Crown"——
The collision caused an earthquake-like impact, and the petals and stems of cornflowers flew and shattered. Arabella knelt behind a pillar and saw that the entire gravel path in the vestibule had been flattened by the air current.
"The Realm of the Sky..." She couldn't help but whisper to herself.
The collision of magic escalated the battle situation again.
The ice and snow condensed into a crown barrier, lightly reflecting back the sword of light thrust from every direction. The Paladin gritted his teeth; Joey was not satisfied with the defense of not falling behind the wind. He held his hands in the air, and a frost-white long sword that was as exquisite and shining as Durandal appeared in his hands.
If Uriel were present, you would probably think that the weapon he made out of ice was a sword-cutting sword. But in fact it was a heavy broad-edged sword, and in terms of posture, it was not even something an apprentice could swing.
Joey took a step forward, the air tightened and then relaxed, and the sound boom rushed forward with the fleeting silver line; the ice curtain blocking his front suddenly cracked on both sides, and a violent cyclone followed. This charge is like a boulder falling straight from the top of a mountain or a torrent rushing in a heavy rain. The freezing air forms a solid plane; the blade of winter triggers the surging snow tide, and the wind roars into a magnificent horn. The paladin's heart skipped a beat, and with a subconscious twist of his wrist, the tornado of frost and snow crashed onto the spine of Durandal's sword!
In an instant, a terrible hurricane blew in the garden. A layer of stone peeled off the outer wall of the castle, and the sky in a corner of Veniwaise seemed to be swallowed up by the dark night, and the colors and light dimmed without resistance.
The two swords were intertwined, and Arabella who was watching could only hear the buzzing echoing in her head. She couldn't see the holy sword Durandal suddenly twisting backwards, and the frost blade cracking and shattering——
Lemmons flew upside down into the castle. He rolled and barely got up. Wooden sharp stones scratched bloody marks on his face, and he realized that his helmet had disappeared at some point.
In the cold fog of ashes, Lemons once again activated the gems of the Holy Sword, and a stronger shelter formed a comprehensive defense. His rich experience allowed him to withstand the baptism of arrows that followed, and for a moment the loud sound of falling hail echoed throughout Lancaster's manor.
Screams and wails accompanied the sound.
And Joey's fighting rhythm has just begun. Chloe's messenger clenched his fingers, and cold spikes rose from the ground.
"Fir Forest"!
Lemmons' mind was dazed, and his body was numb and sluggish. He tried his best but only rose a short distance into the air. He heard the groan of steel being hit hard, and felt that his bones were loose, and his internal organs were almost out of place under the blow.
"Stop!" Priestess screamed. She stumbled to the edge of the Forest of Ice Spears and threw the golden cup far away. "There's no reason for you to stay here."
The headless man stretched out a long lock and rolled the elf's gold cup back into his hand. Then the fir forest collapsed and the ice crown shattered.
Now that he has the gold cup, he has no reason to continue fighting. Although Joey's goal has always been the Holy Knights, as the messenger of the Tower of Sky, he must take into account the face of the Glorious Council even if he is responding to the massacre in Winnivas.
How long do we have to wait? Bear the yoke of restraint and balance under this crown called responsibility. But sooner or later, this day will come to an end.
"Delphine Lancost is about to take over," the headless man said in a low voice. "Until then, it would be best for the Paladins to leave Winawase."
This is the first time I have seen the messenger Chloe who cares about the life and death of the Eastman Kingdom. As if the sport of demon hunting has nothing to do with you astrologers. Arabella swallowed back the cynicism, and replied calmly, indifferently, and without hesitation: "We will return to Bonfire Town and will not participate in anything in the Ice Territory."
If York and Uriel knew that the method they found was not as effective as Joey's fist, the latter would probably regret leaving Winnie Watts.
Joey turned and left.
…
"Did you hear it?"
"Only deaf people can't hear." said a mercenary.
His companion glanced at him. "It came from Lancaster Manor. Should we go and take a look, Deputy Commander Cathy?"
"...Vice Captain?"
The leading war horse suddenly stopped, causing the entire team to stop. The adventurers all turned their attention to Kathy Cook, and saw Golden Beard holding down his hat, his face shrouded in shadow very pale.
It took him a while to respond. "Stay away." He vaguely knew what was happening there, "The battle in the Sky Realm is not a good thing to watch. I can smell the dust in the air. If it wasn't for the Frost Moon arriving early, then there was someone who controlled the ice and snow. The Mystics of the Sky Realm are at war with the Paladin Captain of the Council.”
"Where did Winnie Watts come from so many empty realms?" Someone couldn't help shouting.
"It's the messenger of the Sky Tower." Painter answered him. But he couldn't agree with Kaixi's determined attitude of staying away. The dwarf felt that his intestines were tangled in his stomach, and he also had a stomachache. "Better let Berti curse those damn paladins, and that stupid bighead from York is with them too!"
"Let's go take a look." Kaixi ordered immediately.
However, when the mercenaries rushed into the manor on horseback, no one stopped them - they didn't even find the door and iron fence, and the horses' hooves sank directly into the soft mud of the garden. The ground near the castle was frozen again, and one of the round towers surrounding the main castle collapsed.
"Wow." Golden Beard couldn't help but exclaimed.
Compared with the previous impression, the appearance of this noble courtyard simply looked like it had experienced a natural disaster. Cathy wanted Calder to see it like this. The crumbling stone bricks and spider web-like cracks are the scars of the Lancaster family and the shame of the Holy Knights of the Glorious Council.
"We're late." The big-nosed dwarf didn't find York or Uriel, but he didn't look so depressed. "But now there is plenty of time." He saw the paladins carrying out the injured from the ruins.
The Knox Mercenary Group had no intention of adding insult to injury and did not come forward to assist. Until Priestess Arabella came to Kaixi, two knights with high rings protected her on the left and right.
"We will leave Venevoise." She said coldly, "The Paladin will remember your humiliation, adventurer."
The dwarf didn't have a good temper, but Painter was about to say something sarcastic when Goldenbeard Kaishi stopped him. The adventurer whose voice in the Knox mercenary group was only lower than that of Calder smiled and replied: "The Radiant Council regards tolerance as the creed of knights. I believe that it has the same status as integrity in Lucia's eyes."
"Pedantic dogmatists are followers of Gaia," Priestess shot back.
"The agents of light should understand that the profession of knights does not distinguish between faiths."
Cathy's smile was extremely hateful in Arabella's eyes. "So some adventurers who have no faith or stance don't need to follow the Knight Code. I thought adventurers were only hired by others."
"Sometimes we need help too." Anyway, Joey wasn't here, so the dwarf didn't even blink when he lied.
Priestess still wanted to speak, but she thought of something, snorted, turned her horse's head and walked away.
The departure of the Paladins means the end of their dispute with the adventurer group. Everyone thought this was just a joke and not a heroic act at all - they didn't think the Paladin was very heroic when he was being chased all over the street. But anyone with any brains knows that if such a conflict ends peacefully, it will actually be beneficial to both parties.
Kathy moved closer to him. "Your courage is inversely proportional to your height."
Do you hear what you are saying is human? Painter rolled his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to the other party. He thought he already understood Joey, and the messenger wouldn't care about this little verbal advantage. To be honest, young people are not difficult to get along with, and Uriel has made a good start for them.
"The matter is not over yet." He felt that he had to add some trouble to their deputy leader. "York is with our mercenaries and will be frozen into a popsicle at any moment from causing trouble all day long."
Golden Beard's face suddenly turned dark.
