Neferti saw the hazy image.
That was his own figure, with white waist-length hair, and a white dress that exposed her arms, dotted with dense crystals. She and several similarly dressed girls were standing in a corner in front of the Summer Palace Square, surrounded by chaotic, screaming crowds rolling and pushing.
A ferocious knight rushed out of the thick blood mist that almost blinded his eyes. He chopped down the Extraordinaries who wanted to resist with one sword, and massacred them while shouting for mercy. Many people disappeared among the charging knights.
A powerful wizard rushed to fight the knight. They are incredibly powerful and lightning fast.
Neferti saw herself running away, with crazy angry flames and lightning chasing her behind. Several girls had already been involved in it, and she watched...
"Ah, no!"
Neferti screamed and opened her eyes, heard the sound of swords and guns all around, and saw a large ship pressing over her like a wall. She sat up and found herself lying on the swinging boat, with four or five menacing soldiers staring at her. What just happened was a nightmare.
"Put down the ladder! I'm taking a prisoner with me. If he falls into the sea, I won't fish him out!"
An armored cavalryman shouted impolitely. He was young, but covered in blood and dust, like a wild beast.
A simple hanging ladder was lowered from the big ship. It was narrow and dangerous. People would fall into the sea if they were not careful.
"Go up." The armored cavalry shouted to Neferti. Seeing that she didn't respond, he grabbed her wrist and dragged her up the rickety hanging ladder.
"Let me go! It hurts! Are you considered a knight if you bully a girl like this?" Neferty's delicate wrists were already red and swollen, burning with pain. "You promised me to abide by the armistice agreement."
"..."
The deck of the Birren Hill was very quiet for a while. The soldiers of Storm Squadron who had just withdrawn cast their gazes over. The eyes of this group of vicious guys were shining with blood, like a group of jackals with blood dripping from their mouths surrounding the little white rabbit.
Neferty's silver teeth trembled, and she emboldened herself with an angry cry: "I am Neferty von Kuimantha, and I want to see your commander! Please abide by the armistice agreement!"
The soldiers parted on both sides like a sea encountering rocks. A tall knight came from the crowd. He wiped the blood stains on his breastplate with a cloth, and the blood in the scabbard scattered on the deck with his footsteps. An indescribable faint blood surged behind him, even steaming like mist.
It's him! It's him!
Neferti met the knight again in the garden. Different from the refreshing and comfortable image at that time, the person in front of me showed irresistible majesty and courage in every gesture. If he looks like a beautiful marble statue in the garden, at this moment he is a vast stone tablet in ancient ruins that has witnessed countless rises and falls, erected on the ruins of a perished royal court, inscribing the mighty history.
"Is this the prisoner suspected of being Naira?"
Griffith tapped the shiny scabbard, and the cavalry retreated, leaving Desai and Paxiu where they were.
"That's right, Captain, she invoked the armistice," Desai said guiltily, "She asked to meet with you."
"Yeah!" Neferty felt a little proud when she saw that all the Byelans were frightened. She was no longer so afraid, straightened her chest, and said seriously to Griffith: "Your Excellency, Commander, I am Neferty von Kwaimantha, and my father is Marquis Doron von Kwaimantha. One of the arbiters of the mysterious world of Odessa. Please abide by our armistice and send me back to the Medini Academy."
As soon as he finished speaking, the battleship beneath his feet shook. The roar of the hunter surged through the sails, sending the Brunhild towards the open sea.
The land was getting farther and farther away, and Neferti was panicking. She almost didn't dare to look into the knight's eyes, but she didn't want to show her timidity, so she lowered her gaze to look at the tip of his nose.
Instead of capturing Naira, he captured his sister... Griffith saluted the girl gently and said kindly:
"I'm glad to see you're safe, Miss Kuimantha. But I can't see you ashore."
"Why? Your soldiers promised, and your Senate promised to honor the armistice."
Griffith raised his right hand, raised his fingers, and said one by one:
“First of all, Beyelan’s agreement with Odessa did not include sending you ashore;
"Secondly, the agreement only takes effect on the armed forces of both warring parties, and you, my lovely lady, did not participate in the battle. You are neither a soldier nor an armed person within the scope of the agreement."
Neferti turned pale. Griffith paused for a moment, his face showing a half smile and a half scary look:
"Finally, the agreement is an inter-governmental agreement and is only officially effective for Beyeland and Odessa. It has no direct mandatory effect on me and my soldiers. We still obey the orders of King Beyeland, the Senate and the Ministry of War. . And these departments did not give me an order to send you back to Medini."
Neferti's face turned white and red. Griffith called Lanzada and Kallen and said to the girl who was about to cry:
"Welcome to the Birrenhill! Send her to the officer's quarters."
…
After returning to his cabin, Griffith summoned the will of Minos and asked it what had just happened to him.
"Minos has learned new knowledge," the bone ring brought good news. "Through the source of essence obtained from the sealed object, Minos will provide you with more services."
This powerful knowledge includes—
Necromantic Curse: Death Coil. The Death Knight summons the power of darkness and releases a green spiritual ball with the breath of death from his hand, causing physical damage and huge mental trauma to the enemy, or healing undead creatures; the damage caused by Death Coil to living creatures will be fed back to the Death Knight , to help him recover from his injuries and mental strength.
Necromantic Curse: Rift in the Void. The energy field created by the Death Knight that permeates space has the ability to project energy, flesh and other materials across distances, move objects, and squeeze targets; the more power is projected, the more amazing the power consumed. Generally speaking, Void Rift can only affect one target at a time.
Blood Spell: Black Mud. The powerful biomass territory created by the death knight devours the life energy of animals and plants within the coverage area, and enhances the life recovery and existence time of undead creatures; the black mud will disappear after consuming all the biomass in the land, and can be sacrificed by sacrificing flesh and blood. Or increase the existence time by psychic means.
Blood Curse: Forged in Life. The mad alchemy and life spell of creating life. The blood of the caster is needed as the soul source of life, and the created life form will be absolutely loyal as the caster's clone, but its pain and decay will cause great harm to the caster. Unless an alternative source of souls can be provided.
Among these terrifying abilities, the necromantic curse "Void Rift" cannot yet be used through runes because it has not yet obtained the sealed object.
What a terrible taboo... Griffith trembled from the depths of his soul, and he murmured: "Is it possible to resurrect the dead, true salvation?"
The bone ring responded to his inquiry: "Minos believes that what you are trying to do is human body refining. According to limited intelligence, it is possible to resurrect a person by retaining the soul of the resurrected person and possessing the appropriate materials. However, creating a human being The body itself is already extremely difficult, and the difficulty of the resurrected soul and body not conflicting with each other is even more difficult to calculate."
"Why do you have these powers?"
"The power comes from the source of the sealed object. Minos combined the substances and re-optimized it."
Griffith had no hope for Naira's incredible nostalgia, but he thought of the incredible resurrection that Anton had just performed, thought and asked: "I just encountered an almost taboo resurrection, can I control it? "
"Minos sensed the terrifying spiritual energy, but the trace of the sealed object to which this power belongs is unknown, and the source of it cannot be obtained."
In other words, to get that kind of power, you need to find it from the other two sealed objects.
Minos raised another question: "Your Excellency, Minos captured some powerful soul information in the battle just now. They have not yet dissipated in the spirit world. Should we enslave them for life refinement?"
Griffith asked curiously: "How many can be captured?"
"The number is difficult to calculate, but Life Refining can only infuse one person's soul?"
"Interesting, um, I mean, really evil..." Griffith thought for a moment, "When did you master this ability? How long can your soul be captured?"
"The specific time cannot be determined. Minos cannot actively release power. The soul will dissipate after about 48 hours of capture. It may exist in the material world or wander in the spiritual world. You can try to save it in specific items to avoid dissipate, or summon it from the spirit world into the world. The success rate is very low and is not recommended."
This seems to be the ability of the Sequence 6 Soul Binder of Path of Death. After several battles, Minos became stronger and stronger. Griffith couldn't help but wonder whether Minos had possessed the ability to capture souls during the battle long ago.
