Uriel watched as the storm swept across the lawn, blowing gravel and soil along the way into the sky, leaving the body exposed. Without even the slightest thought of provoking a confrontation, he turned around and jumped onto the railing, then grabbed the decoration outside the balcony and climbed up to the roof. A string of chain lightning crackled and hit the rubble, and these were just the aftermath that bounced off the magical barrier. But before he could stand still, the bricks and stones under his feet suddenly turned into soft sand. He quickly threw himself to the side and hid behind the ruined chimney.
The apprentice was finally able to breathe. If it were in reality, he would be able to avoid attacks through "spiritual vision". But dreams are illusory. The lightning was faster than his reaction, and the change in magic power felt by the fire was too late. He had no choice but to rely on divine magic to resist.
And the storm brought more than just thunder and lightning. The swirling air currents and the heavy rain reminded Uriel of the black clouds and thunderstorms that lingered over Gray Wing Island. But that was a mystery created by witchcraft, completely different from what he felt at the moment. The range of Mortus's storm is only one-tenth of the former, but its power is several times greater. It is difficult to say that the nameless ones are more powerful than black wizards, but Uriel is certain that there are indeed powers among the nameless ones in the "Twilight Veil" that surpass the black wizards.
If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until I wake up. Uriel had to keep moving, scurrying around in the lightning storm. Anais' rescuers didn't care who was willing to help her escape. They were enemies after all. This was the first time Uriel encountered a collective attack by the Nameless Ones. These members of the society with keen senses and high mystery can almost be compared with the Holy Knights of later generations. If Starless Night had such power, perhaps the sport of demon hunting should change its name. Another brick turned into sand. His foot slipped and he almost bit his tongue.
By the time the apprentice crawled into the corridor in embarrassment, the balcony had been destroyed by thunder. He used his mentor's magic to extinguish the incoming flames, and white mist filled the air, blocking the gap. Uriel suspected that this would not have much effect. From the birth of the storm to now, he had not even seen the face of the enemy. The apprentice did not use "spiritual vision", so the unknown person probably has some kind of ability to observe the battlefield from a distance, but there is no record of this in the mysterious field. He had no choice but to retreat inward and plunge into the spiral stone staircase at the end. Suddenly, a choice lay before him.
Uriel only hesitated for a moment before deciding to look upward for Bogart. Parsour was protected by Rego, and Joey was probably in the basement. Who asked him to guard the temple? To be honest, the "Second Truth" does not need anyone to guard it, but the ancestors and the mysterious realm were different.
At this moment, a bloody figure rushed out from the stairs and jumped up the steps, as if there was a devil chasing behind him. After seeing the apprentice, he stopped and turned around to run away.
Uriel had seen him. The astrologer Du Yilin brought him, Anais, and another Chuyuan back to the manor as prisoners. Rego sent them to the wizard in the basement, but the apprentice thought he didn't know the inside story. I didn't have time to reveal Sterling's evil experiment, he thought a little guiltily.
But the thought flashed past, and Uriel's hands moved faster than his thoughts. The divine chain climbed up the stone steps and wrapped the opponent tightly. He fell to the ground and was dragged down the corridor by the magic. Even though Uriel tried his best to avoid the wounds on his body, the violent pulling made him wail in pain all the way. The most important thing is that this guy kept struggling and tried his best to stay away from Uriel.
Realizing that there was no hope of escape, the captives gave up their struggle. If Uriel hadn't reacted quickly, he would have hit his head on the carving of the railing and bloodied his head. What did Sterling do to him? Anais' desire to live is very strong, and her companion behaves completely differently. In fact, he wants to die.
"Gulsha?" The apprentice tried to communicate with him, "Anes mentioned you."
"I am Qilang." The prisoner did not refuse firmly. "You can torture me and kill me, but you can never get what you want. My companions will avenge me. I swear, they will."
"Not to me. I have no reason to kill you."
"You have other intentions, eh? Brother Aurenia who tells lies, I won't believe a word of yours."
That's so true. "Well, it's harder to convince you than to defeat the storm." Uriel admitted, "But there is one thing I can confess. I am also a First Source."
He thought this would make the other person let down their guard, at least a little bit, but Qilang was unmoved: "Oh. You are so lucky."
fool. Only then did Uriel realize that the unknown people in the ancient times did not need to hide. There was no basis for trust between strangers of the same kind. You have to do it another way. "Please don't move." The holy water potion created by divine magic has amazing curative effect on trauma. Uriel pulled off the cloth stuck to the wound and let the potion soak into the flesh. Qilang howled loudly and twitched with pain, but he could feel that the wounds were disappearing as the pain subsided. "Anes helped us find Goffel." Uriel told him, "We promised to help her friends."
Qi Lang's expression softened, but he was still dubious. "Anes. Did you eat her? Or another water fairy? Speaking of us, wouldn't these be her last words?"
"It was Gopher who died. She was the murderer of Orkus. Anais left with the newborn Jili, and Joey let her go."
"Really? What conspiracy does he have?"
Uriel frowned: "Silver Song Knight will only follow orders, sir. Even if there is a conspiracy, it is probably not under his control. Bernard Sterling is responsible for what happened to you."
"He's crazy. You can't reason with a crazy person."
"Joy said the same thing." Why defend your mentor? Today's Joey is not in vain. Uriel didn't understand.
"I think it's the same for him. It's impossible for a normal person to live with a madman for so long. But you, the missionary of Gaia, maybe you are a little different." Qi Lang moved his shoulders slightly, and he could feel that his wound was almost completely healed. . "Do you monks help the enemy? Out of religious sentiment? Humanitarianism?"
"It sounds like a great thing, but the only reason I did this is that we are not against each other. In fact, before the water fairy Gopher attacked, I decided to teach the wizard a lesson."
"There is no doubt." He said softly, "You have this ability. Now what are you going to do with me?"
Uriel thought for a moment. "I have to think about what Joey would do."
"He will let me go." Qi Lang asserted, "Although I don't know the reason, the Silver Song Knight did plan to do so. He woke me up and Gulsha. I know he wanted us to escape."
"Why did he do that?"
"Only the gods know the answer."
"The gods and himself. I'll go and ask for details in a moment." Gods, today is actually the day when the mentor shows great mercy. Anais, Ji Li, De Luo, Gulsha and Qilan, Stix, the most valuable person to survive, died. "But I think I'll let you and your companions go. Well, you understand I mean everyone, right?"
"That damn wizard doesn't look like he will listen to your orders. You can't represent others."
This is true. Uriel found it difficult to refute. Joey will not confront Sterling head-on. He can use tricks and subvert the situation, but he just stubbornly refuses to take off his silver armor. This is a good thing. From a free man who robbed towns to a law-abiding Silversong Knight, everything is going in the right direction. But the problem is that Aurenia's laws are made for the common people, and the nobles are not among the ranks of obedient obedience. There are so many ways they can get away with it... let's be honest, it's the same with the Mystic Realm. The mentor of the ancestors was not reckless at all, and his approach was the choice of most people.
"That's true, but they're not here now. It's just me here."
Qi Lang stared at him suspiciously, then turned and ran away. Uriel stood still. He thought Qilang would leave, but he didn't expect him to come back around the corner. "Gulsha is in the basement." This Chuyuan told him, "There is a Silver Song Knight chasing him, and I can't stop him. That's another one." Needless to say, his injuries were probably caused by the other party. "Maybe if we go together, we can. Are you willing to save him?"
There are only three Silver Song Knights in the manor. If it wasn't Joey, was it Bogart or Rego who was chasing him? No matter who it is, most likely they will not agree to the apprentice's request. Joey has a kind of ambivalence. If you don't go to him, he will pretend not to see it, but it depends on the situation - in front of his colleagues, the mentor will never let someone go intentionally. Uriel didn't know if he could deal with the two Silver Song Knights. Maybe he could do it with a sneak attack. After all, he is not without advantages.
"Okay, I'll try. But you'd better not have too high hopes." He said as he walked down the steps, "But no matter what the result is, you still have to leave here first and find your companions."
It could be seen that Qi Lang really began to look at him with new eyes. Uriel just hoped that he would not act impulsively and ask to go with him. But after a few seconds of hesitation, he suddenly grabbed the apprentice. "No, no need. Our reinforcements will arrive soon, there is nothing to worry about." Qi Lang confided. He finally believed Uriel. "You saved me, Uriel, and Dusk Veil will remember your friendly helping hand. Croita and the Mercury Templar are our enemies, and you are our benefactor."
At this time, Uriel didn't know what expression to make when he mentioned "The Veil of Dusk". "You might as well think that I am motivated by religious sentiments." Although it was a dream, it felt amazing to have members of an organization that would soon nearly destroy the world swear to remember my kindness. He almost asked him what he thought about the world and order, but he didn't ask. I know what they will say. Many things happen without warning because fate is unpredictable. "Just remember not to come and thank me for the storm."
"You mean the wind outside?" Chiron waved his hand, "Steanna doesn't know you. She is a sweet and lovely good girl, from the Sainsbury family. You know, there are no bad people in their family. I will go see you now She, and then we’ll find the wizard to settle the score together.”
"The basement must be destroyed." Uriel told him. "There are mysterious items everywhere there. But there is a skylight in the back that can be used for sneak attacks."
