"You said those were...Tremesil's eyes!" Artoris was shocked when she barely managed to steady herself when the sage gave the answer without any worries.
"Does the God of Light actually have eight eyes?!"
"Is this your focus?" At this point, Barong complained unintentionally, showing a complicated expression under the sage's gaze.
At first, he was curious about the transfer of magic soldiers and seven people mentioned by Joseph, so in the two months after arriving in Kleinia, Baron had rumors of collecting magic soldiers from various intelligence organizations and their origin.
Most people believe that demon soldiers are forged by the Demon King, and serve as containers for the Demon King's executive, a means for him to rule the world. In addition, there is another saying that the seven demon soldiers are actually the seven of the eight eyes of the ancient demon god, and they are a kind of evil creation that is completely natural.
Balong has always been more inclined to the latter statement. After all, he had come into contact with the Demonic Cut of Yanasatis before. The structure of the artifact and the magic power it carries are not like acquired things at all. The innate creation of doubt.
But now, in Baron's view, that statement doesn't seem entirely correct, because he felt a familiar aura on the eighth eye of light.
Thinking about it, Barong suddenly laughed and faced the sage's doubtful gaze and said: "Vilafa is the name of the Sky Dragon, right? The so-called banning of anyone other than the brave who attempts to destroy the Sky Dragon is not so much about maintaining the laws of heaven. It’s better to use it as a stepping stone for the brave.”
"So what?" The sage didn't take it seriously at first, but what he said next made him feel grudge against the mere mortal in front of him for the first time.
"However, this is not what I want to emphasize." Baron said, calmly suppressing his smile: "It seems that you have not understood my intention, so the temptation is over."
"The test... is over...?" Listening to what he said, even Artolis on the side was stunned.
"The game in the previous battle proved that the eighth eye of God can penetrate our minds. This is an undeniable fact. But above this, you cannot easily judge what is sincerity and what is pretense. One pays Zhu Zhenxin, one who is good at disguise, it goes without saying who is easier to deal with. It is the difference in the way of thinking between me and Artoris, and this is why you chose to target her first." Looking directly at the sage with sharp eyes, Barong held a spear in front of him.
"Dragon Quest, this is a story that advocates struggle and is full of hope. People will want to dominate the story, and the story always wants to dominate people. This is originally a delicate balance that can make the civilization as the fruit most abundant. The connotation. But the third party above it wants to control this balance and use fairy tales to describe a war-torn story. It is not out of leisure or self-satisfaction, but - revenge!"
"I didn't call him by his name here, but you should understand what I'm referring to." Facing the sage's gaze that was filled with threats and murderous intent, Barong said calmly.
"The God of Appearance did not win the Shenxiang War at all, am I right - the last sage of Tremhill!"
Although she didn’t fully understand what Baron was saying, his words were very powerful and completely aggressive. Just when Artolis thought that the sage would launch a surprise attack the moment Baron’s words fell, the sage did not make any move. Artoris's expected move.
"Haha~ That's why I praise you so much, but again, you don't have the strength to match your own intelligence, and provoking the gods will not do you any good."
"Although there is not much change in the voice, the urgency in the tone is real. It seems that for me who knows the truth, even you are not immune to emotions." Faced with that hostile gaze, Balong did not look back. But he spoke softly to Artoris.
"The mechanical equipment creates thousands of changes, but it comes from the spring. Without a reference object, even Huang Hao can't drive the complex weapon structure of the ice general. For this reason, I need Artolis to protect the reference object I just gave you. In this way I was able to turn those ideas into reality.”
"——Huang? And the unexpected side move. Did you mean to tell me about this so-called conspiracy?" However, before Artolis could reply, the sage spoke first.
"Of course, you also know that all premeditations are useless in front of the Eye of God, and since even I regard it as a strange move, it doesn't matter even if you hear its effect."
Baron used his alert eyes to pay attention to the sage standing in the distance. At this time, he was assuming an extremely careless posture, as if he was not worried about losing at all. But Baron knew that this was not arrogance. Although the sage behaved very calmly, he was sure that the previous battle also consumed part of the opponent's energy. I am afraid that was the price of liberating the Eye of God. The sage, on the other hand, took advantage of the confrontation and conversation between the three to restore his state.
Feeling the aura around the other party that was very similar to Atoris's, Baron's confidence increased even more, so he took a deep breath.
"Then Artoris, here comes the last part of the plan!"
As Baron finished speaking, the spiritual sword in Artolis's hand once again bloomed with orange light.
"Three thousand fantasy dreams!"
With her prayer, the girl struck the ground with her shining sword.
Just like a stone being thrown into the moon reflecting on the lake, an illusory sense of fragmentation filled the entire sword body. The girl lowered her head. Where her gaze fell, the cracks in the real number field gradually spread——
"Crack~" A crisp crackling sound filled the air. What collapsed was not the space, but the sword in Artolis's hand.
The shining spirit sword shattered into three thousand fragments, and the fragments flew all over the sky and recovered as before. The three thousand fragments became three thousand spirit swords, and then fell from the sky again, like a stabbing, like a tombstone - wherever you can see, Covered every inch of land.
"Oh? Is it different from the previous power?" The light barrier protecting itself blocked the falling spirit sword. Before the sage could use the "God's Eye" to analyze it, he could understand that the touch of the sword was anything but ordinary.
In terms of power, it is equivalent to Biyou Sword Shadow, but its essence is completely different.
"The "sealing" of the spirit sword is also the spirit sword itself. Any one of the Three Thousand Swords will inherit some of its effects except for the base attributes. This is not something that can be compared with the sword spirit of Shui Nianliu. "Barong said with one hand holding the gun, and with the other free hand he pulled out the sword in front of him, his cold and solemn eyes overlapping the point of the sword's edge.
"How about a bet? Just bet that Artoris and I will end your life before all three thousand swords are used up!"
