Chapter 97: The Secret the end
“Rohart, how’s the situation?”
Brent frowned and asked through the magic communication array that had just been built.
They set up their temporary base on the high platform of the Rose Square.
The magic here was the most abundant, and the range of communication was also the furthest.
“The situation…It’s not looking good, Your Holiness.”
Rohart’s voice was a little intermittent.
” There are endless demonic creatures, and, and there’s an indescribable strangeness.”
“What’s strange?”
“They seem to know our response very well…I couldn’t see any Dark-Descended Magic Marionettes scouting around, and none of the throwers that I had prepared were used.
Instead, I had to send people to guard these cumbersome equipment.
Furthermore, there were more Void Hunters than ever before.
In the past, there had never been so many of them.
Damn it, their bellies often had one or two Spirit Flayers attached to them!
What the hell was this?
Our knights can’t even hide under the stomachs of horses, and they actually learned this trick?”
Listening to Rohart’s endless reports, Brent’s eyebrows knitted into a knot.
The Dark-Descended Magic Doll was the most common scouting unit for Abyssal Demons, and it was also their most sought-after strategic resource.
The Heart of the Magic Puppet was more powerful than any gemstone they had seen so far.
Without it, their Light-forged Puppets would not be able to exert their full power, only half of their usual strength.
Moreover, this would also form a vicious cycle.
It would require manpower to make up for the physical performance of the Lightforged Puppet before the second stage of the anchor point could be set up.
Without this portion of manpower, they could only fight hard.
If they fought hard, they would not have the manpower, and it would be impossible to activate the second stage of teleportation…
“Where are the Abyssal Guards?
Where are the Mystic Guardians?”
He couldn’t help but ask.
If all these behemoths appeared, then he, as the largest hidden unit on this trip, could make a move.
He could use the beheading operation to boost morale, and at the same time, make use of the corpse of the monster leader to make an issue, creating a ” Order Soul Altar ” that greatly weakened the monsters.
This was also the reason why he accompanied them.
“No, I didn’t.
Not a single one!
Oh right, there was an echelon that was completely wiped out on the Golden Palm Street.
It might have appeared there!”
“Alright, you guys continue to hold on.
I’ll go over there and take a look.”
Brent did not stop and immediately rushed to the Golden Palm Street.
..
The Sword Saint’s speed was naturally extraordinary.
When he arrived, Vicaya’s team of two hundred people had only traveled a short distance.
Brent looked around.
Other than a bloody Abyssal Guard’s head, there was nothing left at the scene.
Even the corpse had been put away.
One hit?
After carefully examining the wound, a very annoying face flashed through Brent’s mind.
He was the number one enemy of the Church, according to the oracle.
It was said that the 87th and 88th Holy See had both died at the hands of this guy.
The God’s Chosen One called Mount Meru had led a team to set out in great disorder, but he had also been killed by this guy, almost completely annihilated.
Perhaps the abnormality of Suerseth’s monsters was related to him?
The thought disappeared in an instant.
He looked at the head under his feet and laughed at himself.
‘I’m really crazy.
How can I let my imagination run wild…’
It was clearly that guy who killed him.
Brent suddenly had a thought.
Since that fellow had taken away the corpse of the Abyss Guardian, would he be able to catch up to him if he followed the scent of the Abyss?
Without further ado, Brent immediately took out an item that could detect abyssal power-a pair of comical crystal glasses.
And this was made by those annoying mushroom ancients.
As expected, as soon as he put on his glasses, Brent found a clear trace…The smell of the abyss was so thick that it could not be dispersed.
He immediately chased after it.
Soon, he caught up to Vicaya’s team.
” Who’s there?!”
Vikaya had been infused with the power of the abyss and bathed in the blood of Alez Dum.
No one dared to say that Suerthas was the first to smell the abyss!
When the two of them met, the atmosphere was naturally tense.
“Humans?”
Vicaya was stunned at first, then he was furious.
” Damned invaders, it’s you!?”
Without a word, he raised his hand and rushed forward!
Although his sword had been cut off by Shaya, Vikaya, who had been bathed in his master’s blood, was completely free from the negative effects of ” Abyssal Return “.
Not only could he freely switch the Abyssal shell on his body, but he could also control where the bone spikes appeared.
A half-meter-long barbed spike extended from his palm, not holding back at all against Brent!
“Hmph, a lackey of the Abyss?”
Brent didn’t want to waste time on his opponent, so he didn’t hold back.
He drew a pale golden sword that was as thin as a cicada’s wing, and his body flashed as if he was a dragonfly skimming the water.
The moment the two of them crossed paths, he tapped Vicaya’s body a few times and escaped with one strike.
The moment he stood still, it was as if a few golden rays of light surrounded him.
The scene was filled with a different kind of beauty.
plop
In just one exchange, Vicaya fell to the ground.
Blood spurted out from his joints and dyed the ground red.
“Red blood?”
Brent wiped the blood off his sword in surprise.
Originally, this move would not be stained with blood.
The reason why it was stained was that the other party had avoided all the vital points in a split second, which was why the amount of blood was so huge.
Moreover, he did not die.
After all, the difference in strength between the two was huge.
One was a level 80 elite humanoid with a title, and he also had the bonus of the title, Holy See.
Although Vicaya had the strength of a Level 70 Elite Creature with the full buff of Abyssal Return, he was not a monster that could not be measured by numbers like Shaya.
It was already commendable that he was able to survive Brent’s full-powered attack.
The Sword Saint had planned to leave, but he still stood in front of the elves with a tentative attitude.
The latter had learned their lesson this time.
They did not complain and kept quiet out of fear.
“All of you…Have you seen a half-elf named Shaya?”
He did not hold any hope and was just about to leave after asking casually.
However, when he heard this name, a young elf with half his face swollen immediately became excited…
This content is taken from fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm.
However, in the next second, he was glared at by the middle-aged elf beside him and immediately became obedient.
Hmm?
Brent found this very interesting.
He stopped wiping his sword and threw the blood-stained castor-oil handkerchief at the guy’s head.
“Aiyo…”
The semi-metallic handkerchief hit the young elf’s forehead like a bullet, and he cried out in pain.
“You seem to know something?” Brent asked.
“What do you care what I know!” The elf cursed.
“Shut up!”
The middle-aged elf wanted to smash his mouth.
After glaring at him angrily, he immediately smiled and apologized to Brent.
“I offer you my sincerest apologies on his behalf, sir…”
Perhaps because she had never shown such an expression before, the elf’s fawning smile was extremely stiff.
But Brent enjoyed it.
There was nothing better than seeing the proud elf lower her head like this.
“It’s okay.
I forgive him.
He’s just a child.”
Brent smiled and went forward to ask,”
” So, you’ve heard of the name ‘Shay’, right?”
“Indeed, there is.
However, this is just an extremely ordinary name…” The middle-aged elf stood in front of him and replied with a smile,”There are a few of his classmates named Shaya…”
“Are you his father?”
“Praise your wisdom.
This is indeed my youngest son.”
“Then how can you teach a child to lie?” Brent laughed.
“Uh…”
The smile on the middle-aged elf’s face froze.
“How is that possible…How could this be…Uh…”
He looked down at the pale golden sword that had pierced through his body.
There seemed to be a passage of ancient elven words carved on it, but before he could see what it was, his consciousness dissipated.
Brent smiled as he unsheathed his sword.
This time, he didn’t wipe the blood off the sword.
He held the young elf’s chin and asked gently,”
“You’ve already seen the consequences of lying…So you won’t lie, right?”
The young elf was scared out of his wits and could not speak.
Brent cursed trash and looked at the others.
“Did you all see that guy named Shaya?”
“We…
I did meet him once, but I don’t know where he went.”
An elf who looked like a second-in-command stepped forward and bowed slightly.” We don’t get along with our compatriots on the surface,” he said.” That guy mocked us and left.”
“Is that so…”
Brent pursed his lips.
He had a headache over the interruption of the clues.
He couldn’t help but look at Vicaya, who had fallen to the ground.
“Where is that fellow…What happened?”
“He was controlled by that terrifying monster, and then he became like that…But don’t worry, Milord, his nature is still good.
We can guarantee that, right?”
As he spoke, he looked at the crowd, and a wave of echoes immediately sounded.
” What’s there to worry about?
That’s a demonic creature!”
A discordant voice suddenly sounded, and two hundred pairs of eyes immediately shot straight at him.
This voice was undoubtedly from Eliot.
“Oh?
Another new discovery?”
Brent came to Eliot as if he had just received a new toy.
“I think they lied…But you might be honest, right?”
Perhaps because he felt despair at such a close distance, Eliot’s backbone and dignity were completely destroyed at this moment, leaving only endless panic.
“Big, big, big…Yes, yes, yes, they, they all lied…That bastard, that damned bastard, that Shaya…”
“Eliot, you-”
The second-in-command leader had just interrupted him with an angry shout when Brent beheaded him with a single slash.
The spray of blood calmed everyone down, and their anger was appeased by violence.
“Speak slowly.
No one can hurt you.”
Brent comforted him gently.
” You’re Eliot, right?
What an honest child.”
Eliot shivered.
“He…
He wants us to follow this demon to, to the outside of the city…He said that everyone was there…”
“Only these?”
“I really only have these.
Really, I don’t dare to lie to you…” Eliot cried bitterly and couldn’t stop trembling.
“I-I’m not lying…I really didn’t…”
“Good boy.”
Brent’s smile slowly disappeared, replaced by a hint of mockery.
” All of you seem to be very humble, but this kind of arrogance hidden deep in your hearts is nauseating…So, we have to say goodbye.”
He raised his sword, and a golden rain seemed to fall from the sky.
It was like a dream.
All the elves looked up at the blurry scene before falling down one by one.
This included Good Child Eliot.
“As expected, I feel much better.”
Brent heaved a sigh of relief.
He took one last look at Vicaya, who was lying in a pool of blood, and was too lazy to make a move.
