A "gap" suddenly appeared in the night sky.
It's not that the night is replaced, nor that a huge light source lights up the night, but that a cover seems to be suddenly lifted in the dome, making the background color of the night sky no longer complete.
Then a golden light bloomed from the gap and shot directly at Olina. Inspired by the light, she seemed to have rekindled her fighting spirit. She struggled to stand up and opened her bloody mouth towards the Privy Council Warlock.
"Everyone, get out of the way!" Yu Linglong warned.
Before he finished speaking, a golden flame nearly a hundred meters long spurted out from the mouth of the Ambassador of the Islands. It passed through the crowd and the courtyard wall, and shot straight into the headquarters hall next door. Anything blocking the path of the flames was like Candles generally melt and collapse.
The first ones to suffer were the alchemists closest to Olina. They instantly turned into burning paper figures, their skin and flesh peeling off in the sea of fire, revealing the charred bones underneath. Next came the palace guards who were standing further away with crossbows to support them. The surging heat wave ignited their robes from the air, causing chaos in the rear formation.
Even Xia Fan and others who were far away from the fighting area still felt the hot breath blowing in the evening breeze.
"What kind of magic is this?" Li couldn't help blurting out.
"You can think of it as a type of magic, but over there in the West Pole, they have a special name, and that is divine magic."
"Magic?" Xia Fan repeated subconsciously.
The second prince looked at him with interest and said, "If you don't ask about magic or magic, it seems that you already know what magic is."
"Well... I learned a lot after staying in the Recording Department for five or six days."
"Don't worry, I don't mean to blame you. Seeking knowledge is just the most basic need of an alchemist." The second prince turned back to the topic, "For those overseas kingdoms, they believe in the master in the dark more than they believe in themselves. , such as various gods. Divine magic is the power obtained by praying to the gods."
"Wait a minute, you mean... God really exists over there in the West Pole?"
Ning Qianshi showed a strange expression, "Do you - believe it?"
After speaking, he turned his attention back to the battlefield, "If the gods are as invincible as described in the ancient rumors, then our roundup is just in vain, and Olina should have escaped long ago; if the gods can be defeated, It doesn’t matter what it’s called, it’s just a stronger opponent. In the final analysis, everything must be judged by strength.”
"And He'er has already given the answer in this calculation. Our chance of winning is more than 90% -"
Olina swung her long neck, trying to sweep away the alchemists, but one person stood in front of her.
Hagoromo is "dry".
Xia Fan was surprised to find that the highest-ranking alchemist in the Privy Council actually walked upstream against the golden flames and held the huge dragon head. He then raised his arm and punched her on the jaw with a huge bang. The sound seemed to strike deep in everyone's heart.
He is not immune to fire. In the intense "divine fire", half of his body was melting, but the other half was reshaping his physical body. It was as if there were multiple bodies hidden in his body. These bodies came out from one side and replaced the old ones that had been burned. The speed of reshaping was not much slower than ablation. Under the contrast of firelight and shadow, his muscular body with clear outlines and knotted meridians looked like it was made of gold and iron.
This is also... too exaggerated, right
Jin Xia and the others were stunned to see such an amazing recovery ability, even Li, who was a demon, was far behind.
Is this guy really human
"Qian Shu, which controls living things and communicates the will of heaven, symbolizes life and contains destruction. It is the most creative type among the eight methods." Ning Qianshi explained methodically, "And the name of those who achieve it to the extreme is Represents the hexagram genus.”
"Isn't he using magic?" Xia Fan realized the key.
The second prince shook his head, "Immortal magic is not necessarily better than alchemy. The reason why those magics are called fairy magic is because they are extremely complex and difficult to analyze, so they can be summarized in one word. But I personally think that fairy magic is There is no essential difference from alchemy. If our understanding of the world continues to deepen, I believe that the principles of immortality will one day be revealed."
He paused and said, "Not only that, the magic and divine magic in Xiji... are just alchemy under different concepts. One day, these powers will be summarized under an overall framework, and they will no longer be superficially based on region or name. division, but all can be used by the Privy Council."
Xia Fan must admit that this is a very advanced concept.
The second prince who can clearly realize this, even if his own level of magic is not high enough, is enough to become a core figure in alchemy research.
The golden flames gradually faded away.
It was obvious that Olina had exhausted all her strength. She was unable to fight against the man in front of her. The corners of her mouth had been beaten to a bloody pulp, and even her fangs were broken off by the man.
She was forced back into her human form.
At this time, the ambassador of the archipelago country had lost his original glory. The robe on his body was already in tatters and could only barely cover his body. The shoes, gloves and headgear were all lost in the battle. The scarred legs fell directly on the cold stone slab, and the hair tied together was scattered on the ground, no different from the refugees gathered outside the city.
Two guards came up from behind and stabbed two spears into her shoulder blades crosswise. The spear shafts penetrated the body and protruded from both sides of the collarbone, locking all her movement space like a shackle.
At this point, Olina no longer had any power to resist.
"In addition to the crimes mentioned before, you now have two more crimes, including killing the alchemist and the guards of the Privy Council." Ning Qianshi walked up to her at this moment and said, "If you were arrested at the beginning, why would you have to suffer these things? Torture. Now that the matter is over, do you have anything else to say?"
"Kill...me." Olina coughed out a mouthful of blood.
"That's not possible. For the Privy Council, you are a good bargaining chip. Besides, I also have many things I want to know from you. For example, your personnel scattered in the six countries and the communication code... "
"Do you think I'd tell you—ah!"
Olina screamed before she could finish her words.
Ning Qianshi broke one of her fingers completely, "Just because you don't want to say it now doesn't mean you won't want to say it later. I heard that the demon's recovery ability is quite powerful, which also saves us a lot of effort - at least we don't have to worry. You could easily die before you get the answer."
Then he ordered to the guards, "Take her down and put her in the dungeon."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Is this thing over
Xia Fan glanced at Olina who was dragged away. In order to deal with the ambassador of the archipelago country, this movement may have alarmed even half of Shangyuan City. The prince will definitely be furious next, and Gyeonggi may usher in a storm. . And all he wanted to do was to get out as soon as possible. Thinking of this, Xia Fan looked at the second prince, "Your Highness, I wonder if I can go back now?"
"Of course not." Ning Qianshi raised the corner of his mouth, "Because the ceremony has already begun. How can such a critical moment be without your participation?"
As his words fell, a dense clicking sound suddenly came from outside the Privy Council Palace, like a powerful drumming performance - no, Xia Fan realized that it was not the sound of drums, but the sound of horse hooves trampling on the ground. .
He turned his head and looked toward the door, only to see a group of cavalry wearing dark armor walking neatly through the long street outside the Privy Council Palace until they slowly stopped. The flag they held high was embroidered with a huge Chinese character "Xu".
