The cracked half of the mountain was squeezed by rocks and soil, almost none of the carved circuits and symbols were complete, and all the buildings above were incomplete except for those built later.
More than a dozen magicians lived in this "city" that seemed to be completely destroyed. Their number was too small to bring any vitality to this place. The surroundings were still cold and silent, like a cemetery.
"Allinger..." Douglas, who was floating on the mountainside, whispered its name in the Sylvanus language. Even though he had seen it once, he still couldn't get rid of the shock at this moment, and couldn't restrain the excitement and excitement in his heart. urgent.
He slowly flew to the ground of Allinge, and under the guidance of several magicians, he stepped into the central magic tower, which was only a third left, and followed the long corridor, deep into the "City of the Sky". Inside, there is the core of all mysteries, and the source of flight power. Of course, they are all severely destroyed, and it is impossible to directly see the original appearance.
"The research has begun."
When going deep into the ground, Douglas said to himself that one of the main reasons why he chose to come to the Kingdom of Holm instead of Alto was because there was the floating city he had dreamed of.
Regardless of whether he is awake or in a dream, the questions that have plagued him for many years will be best answered here.
Stepping on the gray stone steps, he walked down step by step, his figure gradually disappeared into the darkness at the entrance of the cave, and everything returned to silence.
…
The night before early morning was especially dark, as if there was no light at all.
"Heart of Time" Ketonia sat in the hall of his villa, with the long sword that flickered in the shape of time across his knees.
After the painstaking treatment of "Angel of Grace" Franz, he has got rid of the remaining curse and recovered his body. However, even ordinary knights can see the weakness of his blood, and it will take at least a while before he can recover to his peak state.
"Cthonia, isn't the 'Death Lord' old?" A gust of wind blew by, and a mocking voice sounded.
The invisible wind landed, condensing a tall and thin man with his hair and skin. Every line on his body gives people the feeling of the wind blowing, so no matter the color of his hair or the color of his eyes, he is strangely translucent.
"Raymond. He is old, but do you dare to fight him once?" Ketonia replied lightly.
This epic knight is the current Grand Duke of the Duchy of Calais, "The Unending Wind" Raymond. The Principality of Calais belonged to the former Arthur Empire, so he had a deep-rooted awe of the "Lord of Death". After hearing that the "Heart of Time" who had a bad relationship with him was severely injured by him, he made a mockery of it.
"Hmph." Raymond sat down on the sofa next to him, "Frantz let us move and teach those hiding mice an unforgettable lesson."
He came under the order of the "Angel of Grace", and several other epic knights were also on their way.
"It's not for us to move, but for you to cooperate with me." "Heart of Time" Ketonia raised his head arrogantly, with a hint of contempt on his youthful face. "I am a person deeply favored by the Lord, besides my king. I am the strongest knight on this side of the strait, so the Lord loves me, the church trusts me, and lets me rule you."
"Aren't we not favored by the Lord?" Raymond retorted. He always knew that Ketonia was arrogant, but he never thought about it. One day he will be able to speak hard to hear this level.
"This is the order of the 'Angel of Grace', you can only obey!" Ketonia stood on the side of the church and regarded the other epic knights as subordinates.
Raymond felt that he was considered a well-mannered knight, so he couldn't help but said angrily at this moment: "What do you think we are? A puppy who is ordered by you at will?"
"It's not a puppy, it's the Lord's lamb. We servants can do whatever we want." Ketonia still replied arrogantly.
"Okay, very good! Don't forget that you are also a noble knight!" Raymond was so angry that he almost killed the bastard in front of him.
Ketonia glanced at him contemptuously: "I can become a paladin anytime."
"You!" Raymond decided to fight to defend his dignity and glory.
At this time, the door was pushed open again, and a mass of darkness that seemed to hide countless disasters poured in.
"Hmph." Raymond resisted the urge to do it again.
…
Glorious Cathedral, in the room where the teleportation array is arranged.
"Angel of Divine Grace" Franz has been guarding here, grasping the news from Lance as soon as possible, and making preparations to return to the holy city.
"After killing Alfonso and severely injuring Ketonia, they will definitely hide and escape our suppression. Therefore, during this period of time, as long as we don't mess around, the situation will be relatively stable." Franz pointed to the nearby Cardinal - Canuel, who has just taken over the referee.
Canuel lowered his head and said respectfully: "Yes, my lord, your prediction is very accurate. I just received information from an important person that the 'Lord of Death' has serious concerns about the Union of Magicians, the Tower of the Destroyer, and the supreme magic of the soul. The organization's order was: 'Wait until the church's counterattack subsides before discussing other matters.'"
"Very good." Franz nodded lightly, turned around and continued to look at the teleportation array constantly surging with holy light.
…
The black mist that emerged from the transparent and hideous faces surrounded a towering magic tower. The whole body of the magic tower was pitch black, like a tombstone, and only the highest floor had a faint light flickering.
The light came from a silver candlestick, and Tananos, the "Lord of Death" shrouded in a cloak, quietly looked at the unopened book in front of him. There were more than a dozen strange words written on it, which seemed to come from Mesh Kate Empire: "Secret Research on the First Body by Magicians of All Ages".
…
After a long journey, Fernando landed on the ground. This is the northwest direction of the holy city of Lance, close to Tria where the battle took place, and it is the area with the most legendary powerhouses, so he dare not fly carelessly in the sky.
This is a long and narrow area, with the holy city of Lance in the southeast, the northern province of the Holy Hiertz Empire in the northeast, Alto, the last stronghold of the magic empire in the southwest, and the Trian front in the northwest. The north is an ally of the Church of Truth, who believes in the paganism of the Mother Earth, and a little further north is the Shahran Empire, which is completely controlled by the Church of Truth.
"The King of Angels, Griffith, Ivan, and Rudolph are the four legendary peaks, plus the 'Sword of Truth' and 'Shield of Truth' that are not inferior to the legendary peaks, and five Seraphs, more than eight The number of third-tier saints, and the number of cardinals and epics who suppressed the coalition forces, even without the Pope. The strength of the church is terrifying enough to resist the combination of all forces other than them, not to mention that they have the help of allies such as the Mother Earth Sect... " Fernando turned into a mouse and walked carefully through this area, recalling the information he had obtained during this period of time in his mind, a little frustrated and a little annoyed.
This is not counting saints such as St. Franz, cardinals, and epic knights who did not join the westward war!
"Does it have to bring in the demons from hell and the abyss to defeat the church?" Fernando thought in a messy mood.
Suddenly, he found that the tallest building in the city ahead began to shake violently, and the place where the church ruled. The tallest building can only be a cathedral!
"What's going on? The legendary lords have launched an attack again?" The coalition forces have been driven back to the vicinity of Tria by the concentrated church forces, so Fernando guessed so.
…
"Is there any information from the headquarters of 'Red Eye'?" Ketonia looked at the night watchman in front of him majestically.
The night watchman lowered his head: "Yes, the source of information is reliable."
He knew that the epic knight in front of him had not been caught in the trap for a long time, so he told the source of the information and the specific content.
Ketonia picked up the long sword and said hurriedly: "They should be moving, I will rush to intercept it now, you inform Lei Meng and they will come later."
"Yes, Your Excellency." The night watchman replied without surprise.
The hazy light shuttled between the clouds, and soon approached an ordinary-looking small town.
Ketonia shouted: "Evil magician, go to death!"
He is the incarnation of "the long river of time". Shoot down in a mighty manner, the target is the center of the city.
Nelson, who hadn't had time to shift in the future, looked at the light. There's only one thought in my mind, it's over...
But time has washed away like water, he still lives in this world, all the high-level magicians around him are alive, only one magician with eight rings died and turned into ashes, of course. The red-eyed mages farther away all fell to the ground, as if they had been dead for many years!
"The Heart of Time's strength has dropped to a non-legendary level?" This was Nelson's first thought, but he soon saw Ketonia turned his back and shouted to the outside of the city: "You can't escape!"
Forehead? Nelson suddenly came to his senses, pulled the high-ranking magicians beside him and fled in another direction, which was the prepared escape route.
Not long after they left, Lei Meng and other epic knights arrived, and Ketonia said with a blank expression: "It's a step too late, the high-level people have moved away, and only these dozens of middle and low-level magicians have time to escape in the future."
…
"Death Lord" Tananos put down the thick note in his hand, and took out a mirror covered in deep black from the storage bag.
He stroked the mirror, and it gradually became clear, and the scene reflected was actually a room with a cross.
In the Cathedral of Glory, the place where Ketonia was treated before, the shadow in the corner suddenly came alive, dark and distorted, just like the curse on Ketonia's wound at that time.
The "Lord of Death" stretched out his right hand and pressed it on the mirror, and the whole person began to blur and blend into it.
The shadow squirmed and stood up, turning into a "Death Lord" covered by a hood!
His fuzzy face, with two red lights flickering, locked onto the "Angel of Grace" Franz near the teleportation array.
…
Douglas finished his research for a period of time, walked out of the ground, sat on a rock, and looked at the gradually darkening sky.
"The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, why is it like this..." Douglas was still a little obsessed and murmured to himself.
In the west, the sun went down and it was dyed red.
