On the second day after returning from the void, and one day after the banquet, Edward Charles and the others returned to Arestle.
The Edge of Night still needs Charles to deal with some things, and the new branch of Stray Thorns has not yet been completed. Of course, considering that their disappearance may remind people of Wang Yu, "Arestle's traitor" ".
Before Xiaer left, Wang Yu and "One" in his body confirmed the situation of the devils. Except for the "Seven" that completely died, Wang Yu killed three devils this time, and the power of "One" was correspondingly enhanced a lot. .
"According to your description of their characteristics, the demons you killed should be "three", "four" and "five". Their powers are distortion, contract and corruption respectively."
"Of the power equally divided among the seven of us, three extra parts came to me. My power has become a lot stronger. I want to thank you for this. I can do a lot more things."
The devil "One" and Wang Yu, who temporarily took over Charles' body, described the situation of her brothers and sisters.
"I would venture to ask, are you really the wandering souls rejected by hell as "Three" said? Spreading chaos and creating disasters is to gain more power from the void, the only place of refuge. "
Wang Yu asked this question. What "Three" said was very credible, but Wang Yu felt that the devil's words could not be fully believed, and he had to find a "trustworthy devil" to confirm.
"Almost... but I am a relatively special individual. They cannot appear directly in the material world. But if I don't live in the soul, I can still stay in the material world, but my power will be so small that it will be almost nonexistent."
"As for the purpose of doing this, it can indeed be seen as this. Spreading chaos in the material world can provide us with power from the void."
"I should have told you this earlier. I really didn't expect that you would meet other devils that even I rarely see in such a short period of time."
"One" confirmed that there was nothing wrong with what "Three" said. She was a little helpless and did not tell Wang Yu the news earlier, because she really didn't expect that there are only seven devils in the whole world, and Wang Yu could meet four. , and they were all slaughtered.
"My special nature means that sometimes encountering these devils can no longer be attributed to coincidence."
He said quietly, Wang Yu's special characteristics allowed him to be very restrained from these demons. The devil's characteristics of being difficult to reach and almost immortal were really difficult to use in front of Wang Yu who could physically enter the void and beat people.
Maybe the devils appear weak in front of Wang Yu, but if you really think about it, how many methods can the intelligent race have to deal with the devils? The prerequisite of entering the void to completely kill these things has already been defeated with a stick. How many tryers have there been?
"Can you tell me about the powers of the devils "Two" and "Six" other than you? If necessary, I want to take the initiative. Facing what they do passively is not a good choice."
After thinking about it, Wang Yu still made this request to "One". The things these devils did made Wang Yu already planning to transform into a demon-slaying hunter.
"I know, but I can't tell. This is an additional restriction imposed by the void on my special individual. While other devils are still alive, I cannot inform other beings of their power."
"One" means that she knows it, but because of the restrictions imposed by the void on demons like them, who almost entirely rely on the void for their existence, she cannot tell Wang Yu.
"Be careful with "Two", it may be particularly interested in you. If it is "Six", don't worry about it. It may not bother to appear in the material world at all."
Direct telling is impossible, but there is no problem with implicit reminders.
"Okay, thank you for the information."
I didn't get any particularly useful information, but at least I figured out why the devils, a group of people who seemed to be just having fun, always liked to cause trouble.
After bidding farewell to several old friends of Arestle, Wang Yu and the others planned to return to Liaheim, the elf capital. The mechanical floating city should arrive in Liaheim in the near future, and by then they should board this A city in the sky with a long history.
Sieg needs to use the things in Sky City to contact his sister, while Wang Yu and Aviya have to increase their strength in this giant alchemical creation that has gathered the efforts of a large number of scholars and alchemists from ancient times to the present. to the information they need.
…
On the ground outside the Cursor Wizard Tower, two knights stood facing each other. One was Garcia, who was wearing medium armor, and the other was Wang Yu, who was only wearing leather armor.
"It's so fast. It's been just over two years. At that time, you were still a trainee knight. Now you are already a junior knight. Only a genius like Ule can compete with you. I have only been here for more than ten years. The high-level knights you have reached are a bit ashamed compared to you."
Without using the training iron sword he used to sparring with the Black Knight, Garcia took out the long sword from his waist. It was not a legendary weapon, but it was also a priceless high-end weapon. He took a stance as he spoke.
"The gap between a junior trainee knight and a high-level grand knight is comparable to the gap between a trainee knight and a senior knight. I still have a long way to go before you, Mr. Garcia."
The blood was produced out of thin air, covering the surface of Wang Yu's body, and was gradually shaped under the secret method of the Bloody Storm Knight. The material was then transformed by the modified material sword-shaping technique, and gradually hardened into a set of blood-colored ferocious armor, which was strong and It's lightweight and fits Wang Yu's body perfectly.
This is the armor that belongs exclusively to Wang Yu. If he pursues more defensive properties, he can use the alchemical alloy prepared by Aviya for him instead of blood as the material for shaping the armor.
"You kid, you really plan to spend a few more years catching up with me. Then where can I put my face? Forget it, today is to instruct you on the fighting methods of knights above the Grand Knight stage. It's not a bad idea to take the opportunity to beat you. .”
Garcia smiled, raised his sword and pointed it at Wang Yu, ready to attack.
"Come on, Mr. Garcia, you can do whatever you want without worrying about me getting hurt."
Wang Yu reminded Garcia that being injured was nothing to him. Instead, it could be regarded as part of his fighting ability. This time the two of them were not fighting to the death. The more they could learn, the better.
"Get ready! Don't fall too fast."
Garcia's last words were spoken in a tone that was no longer joking or ridiculing. The other party had already entered a fighting state.
"boom!"
With a loud stamping sound on the ground, Garcia's figure suddenly disappeared. On the ground where he originally stood, there was a not too big pothole.
If the power of the Great Knight level is borrowed from the ground with all its strength, then the damage caused will definitely not be limited to this. This is the difference in the fighting methods of knights after the Great Knight stage and knights under the Great Knight stage.
One of the functions of the materialized fighting spirit is to create a point for the great knights to borrow strength. Otherwise, the reaction force provided by the pure environment is not enough in many cases. The materialized fighting spirit is used to cover the surface of the body. , is enough for the great knights to fully utilize their power.
"So fast!"
The power of the chariot released to the surroundings captured Garcia's movement trajectory. Although it could be observed, the opponent's speed was still much faster than Wang Yu himself.
He tried to use the power of the chariot to lock onto Garcia's figure and suppress the opponent, but the opponent was too fast and the power of the chariot could not be used directly against life, so the attempt ended in failure.
Quickly changing his strategy, just like when using the "Commander's Throne", Wang Yu released the power of the chariot to everything around him within a radius of four meters, applying the downward force equally to all entities entering this area. On the body.
The power was not very great, but the impact could not be ignored, causing Garcia to slow down a bit with a body that was not sprinting in a straight line but moving in a flexible and staggered way.
The Shattered Meteor Iron Blade was held by Wang Yu and turned around with his body. When facing Garcia's long sword, he came to Wang Yu's side almost instantly. The advantage of knowing the opponent's movement trajectory allowed Wang Yu to block the sword in time.
The shattered meteorite iron blade collided with Garcia's long sword, and the shock was quickly transmitted from the blade to the hilt. However, the force coming from it made Wang Yu stunned. The opponent had withdrawn his strength. The power of the high-level knight was not only this point.
Secretly, Wang Yu lowered his center of gravity to the right side, kicked off the ground with the soles of his feet, turned around and used his strength to suddenly sweep his left leg out, making a dull sound that exploded the air.
"Qiang!"
The harsh sound of gold and iron colliding was heard from the intersecting swords. The long sword that Garcia cut with all his strength slid down along the broken meteorite blade that was facing it, and aimed at Wang Yu's wrist, suddenly Cut it off.
And as he moved with the sword, he was one step faster than Wang Yu, allowing him to avoid Wang Yu's left leg.
He twisted the Broken Meteoric Iron Blade with all his strength and tried to push away the long sword that Garcia swept down with the Broken Meteoric Iron Blade. However, the opponent was so much more skilled in swordsmanship and more powerful than Wang Yu that Wang Yu felt the gap.
No matter what he did, Garcia would adjust the force of the long sword according to the direction of his force, and the broken meteorite blade seemed to be out of control.
"Tsk..."
Without hesitation, Wang Yu gave up holding the Broken Meteor Iron Blade which had become a burden, and planned to directly approach him and use extremely close combat to deal with Garcia, who was holding the long sword.
But at this moment, when Wang Yu's five fingers had just released their strength, Garcia suddenly exerted a short but huge force on the long sword, and the two swords collided fiercely.
Wang Yu, who was not holding the hilt of the sword with all his strength, was immediately hit by the force from the hilt. There was a crisp sound of shattering bones, and the broken meteorite blade flew out spinning.
Wang Yu reacted quickly, ignoring the pain caused by the impact of broken bones and muscles. He used his fighting energy with all his strength and used his strength to punch Garcia, who was very close, using his shoulder as the core to drive his arm. He had a hunch that Garcia would The fatal attack will be at the next moment.
His premonition was correct. Garcia did exactly that. The huge force of the long sword that collided with the broken meteorite blade produced a counter-shock force of corresponding intensity. With the force of the counter-shock force, Garcia turned along the way. He thrust the sword into Wang Yu's chest.
The thrown fists and swords are both very fast. At this distance, the two attacks will hit each other at almost the same moment. This is still Wang Yu's fighting style, exchanging injuries for injuries.
But at this moment, Garcia's speed suddenly and explosively increased for a moment. He lowered his body and dodged Wang Yu's swinging fist at his neck. The long sword flashed forward and pierced as if it had skipped a period of time. .
When Wang Yu reacted, he swung his fist in the air and swept over Garcia's head. The opponent's long sword had already pierced the armor on Wang Yu's chest, slightly penetrated the skin, penetrated the flesh, and got stuck inside.
The fist of Garcia's other hand had already been punched out, staying behind the hilt of the long sword that had penetrated Wang Yu's chest armor.
If you don't keep your strength, this long sword will pierce Wang Yu's body like a nail struck by a hammer.
"Dive inside?"
Wang Yu asked helplessly, using the power of the chariot to take back the shattered meteorite blade that had been thrown away.
Although he was fine even if he was stabbed this time, with Garcia's physical condition, he, a guy with a sword stuck in his body, couldn't handle the stormy combos that followed.
If Garcia hadn't suddenly exploded like pressing the fast forward button at that moment, Wang Yu wouldn't have lost so quickly.
At that moment of acceleration, Garcia obviously didn't rely on his own strength, and his speed suddenly increased out of thin air. Wang Yu could only guess that it was the opponent's internal dive.
"Yes, this is my inner potential, "explosion", which exponentially increases all my abilities, strength, speed, etc. in a very short period of time. Although it is not as good as the continuous combat bonus of some inner potentials, it is still life and death." The fight between them, this sudden outbreak, is deadly enough."
Garcia retracted his long sword and looked at Wang Yu with a smile. He had to let Wang Yu understand that although his strength seemed unreasonably strong when facing some special beings, when faced with a pure and powerful person like him, Or, Wang Yu is really not strong enough...
"Very powerful internal potential. The battle between knights at this level is basically over if a flaw is caught. If any enemy tries to test you, Mr. Garcia, they will not be able to face this sudden outbreak." Get it well.”
Wang Yu briefly analyzed Garcia's simple and crude inner potential. It was very strong, really very strong. It's no wonder that Garcia has the title of Sword Master.
"Let's try again. Your handling is quite good. If I give you some time, you should be able to do better. What?"
Garcia was very satisfied with Wang Yu, who had never been arrogant. He had no special thoughts at the moment. He was just analyzing his potential carefully. He drew out his long sword and planned to continue training Wang Yu, but the opponent suddenly turned his gaze to the sky behind him. , causing Garcia to turn his head.
"That's the Feather Clan?"
Wang Yu asked with a somewhat uncertain tone.
In the distant sky, a man with flapping wings is flying here together with the giant eagle Angola. The man's naked upper body is engraved with rune-like patterns, shining with light, and on his handsome face, on his forehead. It has a prismatic crystal.
The characteristics he displayed made Wang Yu think that he was a member of the Yu Clan, one of the five tribes he had never seen before.
