With such a complicated mood, Sally came to the storage room at the end of the corridor on the first floor without thinking about it, opened the door, and saw Rody's eyes moistened for a moment—because he looked better than John Butler said. He was even more embarrassed, because he had resisted several rounds of shadow spells and suffered two "Shadow Strikes". The scorched and opened holes on the leather armor looked quite terrifying.
Sally was distressed and wanted to say something, but saw Rody make a silent movement, and then "click" closed the door, and then seriously cast the "Silence Barrier" to block all the sounds in the room.
This kind of behavior made Sally look serious immediately. She knew that Rody was unmatched by ordinary people, but doing this in the Duke's mansion obviously meant that there was something important to say—but what she didn't expect was that Roddy Without explaining, he handed over the stick on his back...
"This is…?"
Sally looked puzzled, completely unaware that what was in front of her was a true artifact coveted by countless people.
"This secret, don't tell anyone when you leave the house." Rody looked at Sally, and suddenly felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction—I'm afraid everyone in another time and space would never have thought that this historically famous The nameless girl will become the overlord of the party who masters the artifact, right
The wrapped animal skin was opened, and Sally suddenly felt a breath of peace spread out. The "Viper's Kiss" with complex lines was very different from when Sally was holding it, so she still didn't recognize what it was—stretched out her hand to hold the staff, and the three snake heads that suddenly opened at the top immediately moved her. The duke's expression was wonderful.
She looked up at Rody, eyes full of disbelief: "Why is it here!?"
Before Rody could answer, surging power suddenly swept out from the scepter, and then it transitioned softly and firmly into Sally's body—her golden long hair even scattered and fluttered in all directions because of the dense fluctuations, and at the same time her eyes There were actually two golden rings in it!
Sally let out a long howl involuntarily due to the infusion of the power of the artifact. Thanks to the "sound-proof barrier", no one else was alarmed. Then the three snake heads on the stick crawled from the tip of the stick as if they were alive, and climbed up to Sally's arm along the stick body. They turned into streamers of light in her surprised eyes, and formed a shape in the middle of the forearm. Three colorful rings with complex textures.
Since then, the top of the scepter has lost the original three snake heads, and replaced it with a triangular red crystal, and the magic pattern on the surface has completely disappeared. When Sally holds it, the body of the scepter presents an ivory-like white luster. , in terms of image, I am afraid that no one will recognize that this scepter is the "Kiss of the Viper".
Sally felt the divine power filling her body, and for a moment she couldn't believe it was true—divine spells were different from magic spells. As a priest, Sally used chanting scriptures to communicate with " The gods worshiped by the Rose Cross produce "resonance" and rely on "resonance" to achieve the effect of magic. Mage, on the other hand, relies on directly controlling the elements in the air to "make" spells, so there is an essential difference between the two.
But at this moment, Sally could clearly feel the soft power around her body, as if she could condense divine spells at will by raising her hand. She suddenly had a feeling - she cast spells now, maybe she didn't have to wait for the god's resonance anymore.
This is a sense of solidity that she can really grasp the power. Sally was stunned for more than ten seconds before taking a deep breath and looking up at Rody: "You gave it to me... Does the Pope really agree? ?”
"It doesn't matter whether the Pope agrees or not, I agree, that's fine."
Looking at the description of "advanced level 35" above Sally's head, Rody was actually very happy in his heart. But before he could say anything more, Sally opened her arms, raised her head and kissed him—he knew that Sally was expressing her feelings with actions, but the kissing time was still a bit long... The fragrance on Sally made him inexplicably kind Impulsive to do bad things, he tried to hold his breath, but saw Sally crumpled in her arms, her face flushed and panting, her blurred eyes looked strange.
Staring into Sally's eyes, Roddy suddenly felt that she was giving him a strange mental pressure. This was something he had never done before, he let go of the girl in his arms, and looked curiously: "Do you feel any changes in yourself?"
After the scepter was fully awakened and fused, Sally's temperament changed a lot. But at this moment, she has not yet adapted to the changes in her body. She just feels that everything around her seems to be much clearer, and something seems to be added to her mind... Thinking about it carefully, she suddenly felt a little dizzy, and her steps staggered. Roddy hurriedly supported him.
"Everything else is fine, just a little dizzy..."
While speaking, Sally raised her arms and looked at it. The patterns of the three vipers had a harmonious beauty, without being obtrusive at all. With a thought, she found that the lines were emitting faint light—but she didn't understand how to use these powers for a while, and within a few seconds, she felt that her eyelids were heavy, and her whole body fell into a sleepy state.
Seeing this, Rody knew that this might be some kind of sequelae, so he removed the surrounding sound barriers, and then called a maid to take care of her after a simple wash and then fell asleep. By this time, Sally was so sleepy that she couldn't even lift her eyelids, but she still grabbed Roddy's fingers to prevent him from leaving. In this regard, Rody had no choice but to change into the pajamas that Sally asked the servant to prepare, and lay on the bed with Sally in his arms.
Seeing him lying beside her, the Duke of Efta fell asleep peacefully, while Rody silently covered her with the quilt, lowered his head and kissed Sally's forehead and closed his eyes beside her.
He was also exhausted from the intense fighting and flying, and he fell into a deep sleep within a few minutes.
*****
While Rody was comfortably lying on the big bed with the Duke in his arms, Earl Mirno was experiencing the worst night in his life.
After being placed under house arrest by Elder Dean, he has never been able to leave his tent for half a step. Even when going to the toilet, he was surrounded by at least four soldiers of the "Viper Cross", and this situation was relieved after it completely darkened—Earl Mirno didn't know why, anyway, when he heard more and more noise coming from outside, After more and more noisy movements, when I walked out of the tent, I found that the soldiers guarding it had disappeared.
Earl Mirno took a few steps in hesitation, only to see flames emanating from the camp in the distance. He has been in a state of occlusion of information, and has no idea what is happening outside. After running one or two hundred meters, he found a subordinate in a somewhat empty camp, and hurriedly asked, "Where's Dean!? Where have those 'Viper Cross' guys gone?"
The one who was stopped was a knight captain. When he saw Mirno, he immediately said anxiously: "My lord, Elder Dean and Elder Claude were killed at the gate of the 'Holy Temple'! It's over... They are wandering around to intercept and kill, quickly organize an army to suppress them! Otherwise, if there is a riot, we will all be affected!"
Why do you keep saying that "military camp" is an important place? It is because the guys here are all war machines, killing people and setting fires quickly, and even killing themselves when they get out of control. Trying to stop a runaway army is no different from fighting a war.
Now the "Snake Cross" has no leader, and the original "Church Army" was maimed by the "Rose Cross" in the city, and now it has fled into a large number of stragglers. And the already unorganized and undisciplined "Crusaders" have been completely reduced to bandits - more than 7,000 of the original nearly 10,000 of them participated in the looting and fighting in the afternoon battle, but when they learned that the "Crusaders" "After the news that the leader, Cardinal Claude, was killed and defeated, this group of guys became a virus that ravaged everything...
Whether it is a village or a small town, the knights who form gangs have started the "burning, killing and looting" mode without saying a word.
Anyway, the soldiers of the "Temple" will not come out of the city to rescue at night, and there is no one in Mirno's troops to restrain them now. The guys who are full of "finish this ticket and leave" have destroyed the entire temple like locusts. The surrounding territories not only attacked civilians, but even the small groups that originally had private conflicts directly started killing each other!
Where has Milno seen such a battle? When he learned that the two elders of "Viper Cross" had been killed in battle, his mind buzzed, and his legs almost gave way and he sat on the ground. Then he immediately asked the captain of the knight to gather the nobles who had originally acted together—unexpectedly, after some inquiries, Mirno found out that most of the nobles chose to lead their troops and leave in the afternoon!
This group of nobles is not stupid. When they learned that the "Church Army" had breached the "Holy Temple", they immediately realized that they had entered the big hole dug by Mirno! No matter what the result is, the royal family can't afford to go around after blaming it. As a result, the nobles who were well versed in the way of "protecting one's life wisely and wisely" separated one after another from Mirno, regardless of how dangerous it was to travel late at night, and left the camp early without a trace.
Mirno was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth. He knew that he had been tricked by the "Viper Cross", but at the moment he hadn't realized how much the "Viper Cross" had stabbed him. After gathering his own army of more than a thousand people. At first, the naive earl wanted to ask his subordinate knights to suppress the riots of the knights of the Holy Order, but he later realized that all this was empty talk... The Holy Order had already collapsed and disintegrated, and everyone only thought about it Taking advantage of the fire to rob, how can you still have the mind to stay in the camp
It is not suitable to march after dark, let alone fight. Looking at the burning village in the dark night, Mirno could only order the soldiers to form a defensive formation to prevent the rioting army from being affected...
Originally an army of more than 10,000, including more than 20,000 logistics auxiliary soldiers, completely collapsed in a mere day to a total of less than 2,000. Mirno himself did not understand how this happened. But one thing is doomed by now—
The plan to attack Efta was completely ruined.
