"Back there." Roma reminded. But Uriel was not Dalton, and the demonic power was as clear as a bonfire among the shadows. He raised his golden sword backwards to block a falling flame ring.
The Fire Moon Lord descended from midair in the blink of an eye, bringing heat and deadly light. Uriel hurriedly retreated to the pool without waiting for Roma's next reminder. Elemental artillery shells hit one after another, and the scale could be called a meeting ceremony during a battleship confrontation. He jumped over the first fireball, slid his shovel through the low gap under the stone shelf to dodge the second one, and then used "Absolute Command" to deflect the third one that was chasing after him. The hot wind of the flaming explosion swept backward until it hit the hastily rising ice wall. The apprentice was forced to rush forward again before barely dodging the attack.
A few minutes ago, the night elves had regained their mobility under the effect of the potion, and now they were hiding under layers of shadows. Uriel was finally able to give up his futile defense and instead dodge the fire element magic thrown casually by the demon lord.
The current situation can be described as helpless. He never dreamed that he would encounter an opponent from the Sky Realm here, so he did not carry any magic with the mystery of the Sky Realm. Although Joey's condition improved after the support of the "Unicorn" arrived, one only needs to think about the big event that he had previously squandered and mysteriously created to understand the extent of this recovery. Prince Drablay might not be as good as Joey under the influence of the Red Prophecy. Uriel knew that the messenger had "Confessions" to last, so he chose to act separately.
Forget it, what's the use of regretting it now? The apprentice swung the magic chain at Lord Flame Moon who was rising into the sky again. However, as soon as the rune touched the "Eternal Fire", it shrank and shattered like a leaf that had lost its moisture, and disintegrated with a shimmering light. He didn't find it strange at all. When he fought against the Holy Knights in Kamaria, he could still see the possibility of victory, but now there is no possibility. I should use magic to see what happens after the ladder, and at least I can be mentally prepared.
In the real battlefield, "spiritual vision" not only cannot play a decisive role, but may also be detected by the devil: the dream of the future is the power of the devil. So far, only the Black Knight knows this secret. Uriel didn't know why he didn't share this information with his colleagues.
During the battle at Iron Dragon Port, Uriel relied on his "spiritual vision" to completely avoid a head-on confrontation with the Lord of the Flame Moon. But now unless he finds Roma, Uriel can't just escape, even if he finds that the demon lord is not very urgent to deal with the mysterious people of these levels. Without Sauron by his side, the apprentice would not even be able to find the Mystery of Pain. He was sure that he had heard this term before, but not during his contact with Chloe's headquarters before going to sea. Do Mr. Larsen and Lord Prophet know about the situation on Gray Wing Island? Uriel felt that there was no need to doubt the answer.
Roma is a participant in the Red Prophecy, the apprentice thought, but I failed to help her. Ever since he was separated from the little lion in Silverdome City, things have been out of control. He could only pause to ponder the explanation for the latter mystery.
But the flames shot out from the ground at an unexpected angle, and the mysterious process caused by magic was shorter than a heartbeat. Uriel retreated to the ice, abandoning all unrealistic thoughts of counterattack. The Lord of the Flame Moon was so high that his blade could hardly get within a yard of the opponent, not to mention that the enemy was a Sita who could transform into elements at any time. Divine magic can slightly slow down the tilt of the battle, but Uriel has no illusions about it.
The demon lord created a dense rain of fire.
The enemy's attack has no range limit. The defense of ring-level magic can only resist the fire ball - compared with the raging rain of flames in front of you, the initial fireball is the difference between the slingshot stones shot by a street boy and the meteorites falling from the sky. Covered in mystery, resistance is a futile effort. Uriel once used magic to resist the flames that spread to the dock, but at that time the demon lord's magic only accidentally splashed a few sparks.
A hand reached out of the shadow and dragged Uriel into the darkness behind the stone statue before the fire rain fell to the ground.
'Looking down at the night shadow, holding your head high is the ivory door'
He landed in the shadows, as if in a river thick as honey. This brought back some not-so-good memories for Uriel. The blood-red prophecies are not over yet.
The night elf grabbed his arm and walked in the shadows, moving skillfully like a spider walking on its own web. Uriel found that even if he learned this magic, he would not be able to quickly enter the battle. He lacked the perception and understanding of shadows, and had never had the experience of moving in a two-dimensional posture. I am afraid that as long as Dalton lets go, he will Have to fall into the unfathomable darkness.
Uriel felt nothing as he moved among the shadows. He couldn't see the explosion or the fire, and he couldn't hear Roma's voice. It was a very weird experience and hard to remember. The night elves kept changing their direction, and after a while, the apprentice even lost his general sense of direction.
They regained their human form at the edge of the stone wall. The night elves have incorporated this skill into the fire, and his escape from the mysterious effect is as natural and simple as surfacing to breathe after diving. Uriel was much more difficult. He didn't know how to describe the entire process of expanding and thickening from a flat shadow to its original appearance, but this change was by no means instantaneous.
Behind them, the demon lord's magic destroyed the deepest pools and stone statues. Uriel and Dalton silently watched as the magma filled the pits in the scorched earth. The thick smoke dispersed the powdery mist, revealing unburned bones and rubble at the edges. Lord Flame Moon was nowhere to be seen.
"That's not elemental magic." The wanted criminal in the bay seemed to dare to speak out. He showed his burned arm to the apprentice, who then realized that shadow magic was not completely immune to attacks, but that it could hide faster in the shadow. "Your magic may not be able to stop it."
Not a possibility, but a necessity. "I didn't intend to be defensive." Uriel explained. It seemed that he had some misunderstanding. "Thank you, Mr. Dalton, for saving my life."
"Oh." Dalton seemed a little confused, "Do I also want to thank you at this time? The battle is not over yet, and you don't owe me anything."
"Well, maybe I'm just being polite."
"you are too polite."
Uriel knew he would never joke with Dalton again, at least not in a situation like this. He felt that the other party was not lacking in humor, but rather tended to focus on serious situations. Dalton was wary, dignified, and communicative, and his way of expressing his refusal was quite blunt. He has an affinity for shadows but is not afraid to stand in the sun. Maybe he was eager to get rid of the fixed rules. Uriel is no stranger to people with this kind of personality, but the difference between night elves and humans is not just personality. I have to be careful with what I say so as not to offend them.
But you still have to ask. "Why is Roma in the Mystery of Pain? When will she come out?" Uriel tried to use fire to feel it, but he still found nothing. "Can she hear me?"
"She may not be able to come back." The night elf said bluntly, "As for now, Miss Roma is probably far away from you, so she can't hear you. I can't determine her location."
But she could see me and communicate with me. What does this mean? Uriel couldn't tell. He was more concerned about Roma's situation at the moment. "The secret ritual is dangerous?" How did this little lion become like this?
"You'd better ask Lord White Envoy. The information about Roma comes from the ring on her hand, Sauron Gessen."
"I can't contact him." The gap between the stars opened for only a moment, and Uriel used his "spiritual vision" to successfully capture the brief opportunity. Joey took him to Gray Winged Bird Island. Since the White Envoy's primary goal was the Gulf War, and Uriel wanted to find Roma, the mentor set the exit of the ladder at two different coordinates: Dera The location of Prince Bligh and the location of Sauron Gerson, the Ring of Nightspeakers.
This was a foolproof plan, and it also took into account the impact of chaos in the laws on the Star Gap. But without using "Spirit Vision", no one would have imagined that Lord Flame Moon actually returned to Gray Winged Bird Island after his defeat in the Iron Dragon Port War.
Carelessness is not someone else's responsibility, Uriel thought. Ever since he regained contact with the tower, it seemed like all the weight had been lifted off him...or rather earlier, after meeting Joey. But then he could still make good use of his magic. The Prophet's orders are given to the Messenger, and it is not my idea for the Messenger to compromise on the execution of the orders.
In any case, he didn't see what was behind the door in time. Unused weapons are scrap metal. Maybe Joey was right and I should stay with Aiken in Knights Bay and focus on the church.
But regrets will not help. Finding a way out in reality is the first priority. Putting aside the injury of Lord Mercury, Uriel knew very well the purpose of Lord Flame Moon, or the Demon of Association. They provoke wars and spread panic in the mysterious realm of Knox, all in order to create chaos and shake up order. Although there is no complete guarantee, Roma and Dalton should not be targets of the devil.
"The Demon Lord is here for the Ritual of Pain?" I hope not.
"I don't know about Sita." Uriel was surprised when Dalton mentioned Lametta. It is unlikely that there are two sky demons using metal magic. "Another demon woman came first. She came here to absorb the life force from the Pure Cauldron Pool to recover from her injuries, but I added some seasoning." He gestured with the thin sword that was only a short length in his hand. "This must have caused trouble for her, and she is temporarily unable to participate in the war."
Maybe they don't want to fight at all. Uriel noticed something unusual about the Scroll of Oath before the smoke dispersed. After entering the high level of mystery, he has been able to detect the connection between the parchments and the Confessions. In addition to the gospels in the hands of Joey and Lametta, there is also a copy in the hands of the Black Knight, which is the lost holy book of the Church of Gaia. The strange connection flashed away, and Uriel thought of the door of death carved from bones. I wish they were really gone.
"They have left." Little Lion Roma confirmed. Her voice suddenly popped out. "Someone turned on the magic of the Ladder. I thought it was the Star Gap...but the other side of the door was filled with darkness and death. As soon as I blinked, they disappeared."
