The long-term pursuit finally gave him his answer. Duan Qing, who was protecting the emperor, just stared blankly at the face of the purple-haired woman who suddenly appeared in front of him. His anxiety when he first discovered that the other party was missing was mixed with the desire to find the other party. However, no surprise appeared in his mind at this moment. Instead, there was an unprecedented look of worry: "Violet! Are you okay? Where have you been?"
"..."
Still maintaining the appearance of an unresponsive puppet, the woman called Violet turned her head and looked at Duan Qing's face. She didn't seem to have regained her consciousness, which seemed to make Duan Qing's heart chill and ignite at the same time. The anger of the black flame in the dome opposite: "You despicable woman! You ant with no respect! How dare you sneak attack me! You can actually find me!"
"Did you find me through the powers I taught you?"
Looking at the light condensed between the hands of the woman who said nothing, the fluctuations of the flame became more intense: "Did you know that I was going to attack, so you have been guarding me here? No ,This is impossible!"
"You can't do this! You can't-ahhhhh!"
The screams that seemed to make the soul tremble then echoed in the sky above the side hall, accompanied by the violently distorted sight of the flames that penetrated Duan Qing's hearing. He subconsciously held his ears because it was unbearable, but his eyesight He still stayed on the struggling flame for an instant, until some obscure energy emitted from Violet's hand completely extinguished the flame before moving to the side: "You, what did you do?"
"She...did what she was supposed to do."
Slowly putting down her hands, Violet regained her sluggishness and then slowly walked to Duan Qing, and the person who said this was not the silent woman who kept looking at her, but the person on her chest Drenir, who was penetrated and appeared to be dying at this time: "The energy of the void, and this familiar casting figure... Oh, dear Veer, being able to see you at the last moment is already a fate for me. The best favor.”
"Don't worry, I can cure you now- ugh."
The words he blurted out stopped in mid-air, and Duan Qing's movement of reaching out to take out the healing potion also stopped helplessly at his waist. Fighting against the feeling of fatigue and dizziness, he then hurriedly checked himself. The remaining alchemy equipment mobilized its hands and feet and began to get busy: "Just wait a moment, I will be able to prepare the best healing potion right away."
"Do not bother."
Coughing out more blood from the corner of his mouth, Drenier weakly waved his hand covered in his own blood towards Duan Qing: "I have expected this since the energy torrent started to collapse tonight. In the end, although I didn’t expect that the prime minister and the others would be used, the sword stabbed into my chest... I’m afraid it has already been engraved on my fate by the restorers who have been coveting the empire for a long time.”
"Whether it is to restore the rule of the Magic Empire, or to avenge the hatred of our ancestor Frey the Great for overthrowing the glory of magic in the past, they will eventually point the finger at our royal family." He said this with a corner of his mouth. Shaking his head: "It's a pity that my ministers didn't see this, and they are still fighting over the so-called political opponents every day... If not, they would not be used by the restorationists who took advantage of the situation. Bar."
"Say a few words, okay? You need to rest now." Without raising his head, Duan Qing's hands were still busy beside him: "As long as you can hold on for a little longer, your hope of survival will be Greatly improve."
"...Of course I won't rest, because this is the last time I can use to explain." Drenier, who was slumped in the seat, tilted his head: "My son was sent to the front line by me. , just enough to escape the disaster mentioned in the prophecy. My daughter and my youngest son have not yet obtained actual power, and they should not fall into those people’s eradication list..."
"After I leave, Chris should be able to use Red's power to regain control of the imperial capital." Drenier closed his eyes: "As long as... the Mages Council I specially invited... can... If the magic circle is restored..."
"The Council of Mages is not monolithic. At least there are a group of evildoers among the magicians lurking in Redcar, the imperial capital."
Finally he stopped his movements and Duan Qing stood up angrily: "And even if we can repair this magic circle that has been passed down for thousands of years, can the prime ministers outside agree to it? Will they support the man who is already in Tanzania?" Will Chris, who has shown his fangs and seems unscrupulous in doing things, continue to ride on their heads on behalf of the royal family?"
"The nobles of the empire can never maintain peace. This is the truth and law created by the law of the strong that has been passed down for thousands of years." Drenier replied with a painful look on his face: "I have promised to restore Glori With the identity and status of the Ya family, Marshal Reid should consider my affection and become Chris's strong support. The rest... I am a mediocre person with no ambition at all, and I don't have any better way. .”
"Do you think so, Violet?" His eyes turned to Violet, who was silent at the side: "Since you left, I have never given up any opportunity to invite you back to the imperial capital. I thought that before Letting you take on the role of Chris's mentor can change your mood, but you didn't expect that to happen in the end..."
"Hey, hey, so you can't let us go." Duan Qing rubbed his sore forehead vigorously: "If Chris really becomes the emperor, wouldn't it be even more difficult for her and I to get along? "
"Can you please forgive Chris? He's just a kid now."
As if he had no intention of continuing to pay attention to Duan Qing, Drenier looked at the purple-haired woman with absent-minded eyes: "Although he is a mediocre person like me, he at least It is the bloodline and hope of the Frey family, and the past glory and achievements of Emperor Frey must not be lost in the hands of our generation..."
"If... it's possible... I hope you can inherit... this responsibility and continue... to replace me and protect this land..."
His voice became weaker and weaker, and his originally burly and majestic body began to slowly fall with the loss of blood and energy: "...but, but...you...are also a person with Fleur's bloodline, you... ...will also be subject to...the backlash from the magic circle, and..."
"This is my last request, adventurer."
The hand stretched out to Violet slowly fell, and Drenier's eyes that opened again began to lose the last spark of life: "Take her away...from this place, and leave quickly...after the magic circle is repaired-"
Boom!
Ruoyouruowuo sound began to rise at Duan Qing's feet, accompanied by a roaring sound that even ordinary people could feel that some energy was gathering here, belonging to Drenier's body. Then, beams of brilliant light suddenly burst out in front of Duan Qing, spreading out around the hall in irregular trajectories. The streaks of light that continued to emit from the emperor's chest then occupied Duan Qing's field of vision. He raised his arms to cover his eyes and suddenly pushed him away. He fell to the ground and then ignored the sound coming from his body. With the terrifying pressure and pain in my mind, I struggled to get up from where I was: "Wait, wait a minute! If you die, won't we have to bear the blame again! Even if I can save Violet, I--"
The pressure around him suddenly decreased, and the words he yelled with all his strength stopped in mid-air. Violet's purple-haired figure also blocked Duan Qing's face at this time, using her raised hands to talk to Duan Qing. The magic energy between his hands weaved huge webs of light that were enough to cover the gushing energy together: "I..."
"I will protect you."
After speaking this sentence with difficulty but calmly, the purple-haired woman looked back and smiled and then disappeared into the radiance of the scattered energy that gradually exploded. Purple magic arrays of different sizes also followed the slender And the mature body appeared in the night sky after being swallowed by the light, using a method that was difficult for Duan Qing to understand, separating the explosive energy from in front of him and the more frantic energy flow from the ground within an invisible space. The surrounding fighting gradually stopped under the illumination of this magic explosion. For a while, only the same eyes as Duan Qing were left, staring blankly at the stream of light, and the woman's eyes bathed in the stream of light. The slender figure then dimmed for a moment at the end of Duan Qing's field of vision, and a faint voice reached Duan Qing's ears through the roar of surging energy: "This is..."
"This is that song, isn't it."
Recognizing this tune that had played in front of the tombstone in the Sky Garden, Duan Qing murmured this sentence. His trembling lips, which were originally at a loss, bit them together hard, along with the words. A dull roar oozed out his own blood: "How is it possible..."
"How could this happen again!"
He opened his arms, and then threw himself into the torrent of energy under the gaze of many royal guards and imperial nobles who stopped behind him: "I swore to save you! I don't need you. Repay the favor! The crime of failing once—"
"I will never carry it again!"
The soundless white clouds and chains reaching the sky later replaced the roar of energy that entered his eyes, and the scene of the world that Duan Qing had seen several times was once again presented to him. He was already aware of these changes. The gray-robed magician who was accustomed to it then let out a scream and tried hard to endure the severe pain in his mind: "Ahhhhhh--"

[The signal characteristics are the same as the database samples, and the No. 1 suppression plan has been implemented——]
"Get out of my way!"
The raging flames suddenly erupted from his side, burning the chains suddenly embedded in his hands and feet into ashes in an instant. The embers of the flames scattered from the clouds passed through the remaining holes in Duan Qing's hands and feet. It was revealed, and then it was burned into horrific bloody holes by the inexplicable flames: "You can trap me, can't I break free?"
"Violet!"
His body suddenly moved up, flying to the direction of the purple-haired woman before more chains appeared out of thin air inside his body; "Let me go now! Don't let me waste any more words! Otherwise, --Well."
The words that were about to burst out of his mouth stopped again. Duan Qing, who was covered in blood, looked at the purple-haired woman floating in the air with horrified eyes. The huge line representing destiny that should have existed on the latter's body The chain had disappeared from her back at this time, and was replaced by the other person's graceful body holding strips of energy light: "Why, you didn't expect me to be like this now, right?"
"you you……"
"I've actually been fine."
As if she knew what the other party wanted to ask, Violet, who was naked and bathed in the energy, replied with a sweet smile: "I can hear your words, and I can also see everything that surrounds you. But there seems to be...well, there is a little distance between my soul and my body, so it is difficult for me to give you a correct response."
"I have also been looking for a way to break this deadlock, so as to repay you for always wanting to save my heart." She smiled and nodded her head at Duan Qing: "I didn't expect that when I finally found such an opportunity, But you broke in again."
"Have you been fine all this time?" Duan Qing asked slightly at a loss, "I thought yours, yours..."
"My 'spirit' is damaged?"
Violet smiled and shook her head. There was a bit of sadness in Violet's smile: "Maybe this is really the case. I have been feeling everything you have given me during this time. If If I can experience the whole world like an adventurer and pursue my goals with perseverance, maybe my ending will be better than now."
"You, what are you going to do?"
Looking at the lost expression of the other party and the naked face looking down at her hands, Duan Qing felt an unknown feeling in her heart. Violet, who noticed this, also hurriedly smiled again and at the same time put her hand in her hand. The magical light bands gathered around him: "Nothing, just wiping the butt of Drenir's last mistake."
"Do you want to repair the magic circle?" Looking at the surging clouds extending from below the strips of light, Duan Qing, who seemed to have some understanding, asked in shock: "Using methods from this world?"
"Dreniel has so much power, but his understanding of the magical structure of the imperial capital is really poor."
Shaking her head and turning around, Violet's body began to slowly merge with the energy in the entanglement of those light bands: "And I am a professional, and my ability to adapt and control magic is better than his." It is hundreds of times more powerful. As long as I can integrate my spiritual body into the underground of Redkar, the imperial capital, I can control the already chaotic magic energy flow at will and prevent the energy that has been accumulated for thousands of years from blowing up Redkar. —”
Loud shouts then interrupted Violet's explanation, and a heavy impact sounded at the edge of Violet's body that was about to disappear in the light belt. A strike from Duan Qing The powerful and heavy palm strike then collided heavily with the energy laminar flow protecting there, forcibly separating the opponent's body outline from those white light bands.
"Don't even think about it!"
