A strong sense of strangeness appeared in her spiritual sea like never before, and the pain of breaking her wings freed her from this qiē.

But she was unwilling to lose that feeling after having tasted the feeling of fifth-level power, as she was most likely to break through the fourth-level limit in the non-elemental balance period in the past five hundred years, the responsibility given to her also made her choose to infiltrate the dark city alone, hoping to regain the wings she had identified as her own.

She hadn't even considered the consequences, her sister and the modern-day Dark Lord Yukihime had reminded her that the reason why Lovian was able to gain a foothold in the Dark City was that he and Mercedes must have reached some kind of agreement, and under such conditions, rashly attacking Lovian was likely to cause further deterioration of relations between the two and cause the elves to be disgusted by the Flying Flower Temple. Although the Flying Flower Courtyard is the king of the underground world, it is impossible to compete with the entire elf race. Even a negative attitude is enough to cause huge losses to the Flying Flower Temple in the future.

But her attempts were torn to shreds by the ice-colored girl.

The sound of the carved door opening interrupted her thoughts, and the first thing that caught her eye was the pair of inky steel-colored demon wings that she thought she was familiar with.

Xue Qingji's pupils instantly condensed, and under the impetus of the still powerful force, she subconsciously grabbed towards the wings. The ten-meter gap between the sofa seat and the doorway has been almost ignored.

Lovian's white-gloved left hand was raised, drawing a circle against her wrist, quietly dissolving her decisive momentum.

Even so, Lovian, who had just entered the fourth level, took half a step back in her momentum, and almost knocked over a porcelain vase that looked quite expensive.

Xue Qingji was stunned. Of course, she could feel the gap between the current Lovian and the Lovian he had fought before. But before she could ask, a familiar weight landed on the palm of her hand.

It was the Eclipse and the Black Elf whose blades had been melted by Lilin's spiritual power of fire.

"The machine spirit is still alive. If you go back, you only need to return to the furnace and reforge once, and there will be no problems. Lovian said simply. Looking at Xue Qingji, who was staring blankly at his twin blades, "I know that this exchange is more unequal, because I only said a few words, and the condition you have to make is to give up your ownership of my wings unconditionally. I don't know what you traded to get my wings out of the rebels, but it's not a small price. ”

Xue Qingji was still staring at the cold blade in her hand in confusion, and it was not until she felt the faint soul fluctuations of the machine spirit that she slowly raised her head.

"What did we do?"

Luo Wei'an shook his head, the burgundy braid tied behind his head shook a few times in a witty way, and Xue Ji slowly appeared in front of Xue Qingji.

"Sister!!-"

Xue Qingji just showed half of his joy. The expressionless Yukihime raised her hand and waved. The speed was so fast that even Luo Wei'an only saw a glimmer of knife that seemed to be wrapped in a dazzling golden light in the dimness, and the brown hair scattered in front of Xue Qingji's forehead snapped silently, revealing her smooth and white forehead.

Short chestnut hair, a white and red trench coat with sharp corners like a blade, and no emotional fluctuations can be seen in the dark eyes. But an emotionless gaze is far more terrifying than cruel, bloodthirsty eyes.

The air froze suddenly, and Lovian even felt the essence of murderous aura that could only be felt from the Legion Commanders from the King of the Dark World beside him.

The two sisters, who looked seven or eight points alike, looked at each other like this, without any power collision, just pure and complete momentum oppression. Xue Qingji did not collapse under the forced gaze of Xue Ji. Instead, after a brief loss of consciousness, he barely withstood her pressure. If it weren't for the weakness of her heart, judging from her unwilling eyes, she would probably have raised the broken eclipse in her hand.

Ten seconds later. The bloodstained black gloves shook slightly, and the two knives that did not leave a trace were withdrawn from their scabbards. The muscles on Xue Qingji's face squirmed a few times, and finally glanced at Xue Ji a few times. Then stubbornly turned his back away.

"When are you going to grow up? Xue Ji snorted coldly, "Tell you to make some ice-breaking negotiations with Xiao Long." I thought you could suppress your assumptions under orders. ”

Xue Ji stepped on the crisp steps of high heels, and rubbed the body of Xue Qing's scars. Xue Qingji left a fierce glare behind her. Then he swaggered out of Verin's office.

It wasn't until the two of them lost the trace of Xue Qing's marks in their perception that Xue Ji took her eyes off the tall and gorgeous floor-to-ceiling windows Gothic-style curtains and smiled bitterly at Luo Weian.

"What a troublesome kid. Why doesn't my sister give me peace of mind like this?"

"I also have a younger sister, and although she is also a lot of troublemakers, I still find her very cute. Luo Wei'an thought of Damian, and couldn't help but sigh softly, "Standing here and saying this, don't you want to do some secrecy measures?" Although the two half-blood demons of the Xiao Long mercenary group are willing to do something for the demons, they are still growing up in the elven clan after all, and they can't agree to some things that are not conducive to the core interests of the elf clan. ”

"Then I don't tell them. Yukihime turned and leaned back on her rosewood desk, playing with the saber in the scabbard in her hand, "Now that Mercedes has removed this last obstacle, it's only a matter of time before Ming City is restored." By the time the elves complete this belated unification, their influence in the Osirian Empire will surely increase exponentially. That kind of situation is certainly not suitable for the flying flower temple that flies in the dark - all friendships are based on interests, you should understand this. ”

Lovian nodded, waiting for Yukihime's next step.

"Although Nuvi Province is the headquarters of the Flying Flower Temple, due to the forces around the Minar Forest, the transportation network there has always been controlled by the government department. Feihuayuan has never contracted anything there, so make a little deal with some of your sovereignty here, and I hope that your demon prototype can last there for a long time, and you will own part of the local land in your name and build a new transportation network. Of course, this is a plan to revitalize the province of Nuvi. However, it is also a tendency for provinces to become independent outside the empire. So you're going to face the pressure of Osiria again. ”

"This sounds like a loss to us from any point of view...... "Luo Weian said indifferently, "where is your own interest?"

"It's a venture. Yukihime withdrew her saber. "If it works, we don't get much. There is nothing to lose if it fails. After all, the Holy Land hopes to be able to awaken Ai'an's memories through guò, and there are many other things, and such a good tool is not willing to be lost now. Finally, I apologize to you for those small actions before. ”

"Right? Luo Wei'an stretched his wings, "You have lost a lot of my wings, although I don't have any responsibility, but judging from your eyes, I'm afraid you are not reconciled in your heart, right?"

Yukihime didn't reply. He just smiled rather bewilderingly, and then gestured gracefully behind him—

The sound of Verin's footsteps had just entered the office.

By the time he looked back again, Yukihime had disappeared without a trace. On the smooth desktop, I don't know when I left a letter printed with the offset printing of the Flying Flower Courtyard.

；

The sky was as starry blue as ever, and although you could not feel the charm of night in the dark city, it was still the silence and peace of night that surrounded this gorgeous world based on the beauty of the elves. Beyond those crystal platforms is the Dark City Night Market, a symbol of prosperity and abundance.

In the midst of a crystal platform that is almost empty, an empty house is capable of bringing a more real and oppressive loneliness.

However, a sense of loneliness and fear of the unknown darkness. All around him quietly turned into a sense of security that could melt into it.

Although the long-lost happiness has lasted for a long time, Mastma still often feels the long-lost feeling that moves her to cry.

"It's time to leave tomorrow, remember to get your reserved tickets back tomorrow morning. On the other side of the window, Mastma whispered to the pillow.

"Hmm. ”

"We're still struggling to make ends meet. ”

"If you work two more days. Maybe I'll be able to make it back. Lovian looked at the clear silhouette of Mastema in the night, and could not see her details, but there was a kind of gentle and hazy beauty. "It's a good thing Mercedes didn't count the piano I lost in the City of Crosses, otherwise our fragile finances would have collapsed. ”

"Hmph......" Mastma buried his face in the pillow. He smiled and said, "What do you think?" How's Mercedes?"

"What can the Elf King do, no matter how friendly he is, he can't be my friend. Luo Wei'an immediately replied, "I told you, if there is no accident, I will send those children to Mingcheng for a while, receive a better education, and at the same time learn how to deal with elves from Feihua Academy by the way." ”

Mastma moved forward slightly, and now each other's breath could clearly hit each other's faces, "In the end, we are still comparing each other...... Anyway, if you hand over the future of the Church to Verin and them, you will offend the Earth Temple. ”

"Now we don't have to worry about the future," Lovian smiled, "and now our biggest reliance is on the Black Wings - they don't lose as much as we think, and in a way, Francis is the most important person among us." ”

"Francis......" Mastma exhaled, "and don't forget that there is a so-called 'Inheritor of Fried' to the south. He leads the other half of the Black Wings. ”

Luo Wei'an thought for a little longer this time, and then said in a low voice: "That's right, I don't have anything too to worry about after I go back, I'll go to the South Snow Region." ”

"You go...... What are you going to do there?"

"I want to see my old colleague, Ben Leon. "I know he has a lot of hatred for me, but I'm afraid there's a reason why he's been silent for so many years." Legend has it that the Knight of Light Commander of the previous generation had hit him hard, after all, among our Legion Commanders, his strength was still relatively low. ”

Mastma looked at him with sparkling eyes, and after a moment of silence, Mastma spoke, "Promise me, don't fight hard. ”

"I will. I didn't go to him to fight, I don't like death, and I don't like the contradictions and causes of death. Lovian grabbed Mastma's hands in the sheets. "I remember when I was very young, my dad took me to the human checkpoint down the hill - to kill people. It was then that I saw blood and death for the first time. I saw my dad drag an ordinary Terran guard with his legs cut off and hand me a dagger. Tell me to kill him. Although it was the Terrans who ruined our past and future, I still couldn't do anything when I saw him terrified. Dad didn't say anything, just stood behind me. Then I made a move, and the dagger slashed into his neck. The blood splattered far away, and I realized that the power of the heart was so strong. I stared into his eyes, those dark eyes, watching the light inside disappear, watching his lens cloudy. From a living life to a corpse. At that time, I was really scared, just scared of myself, and found that it really didn't take much strength to kill a life, and even I, who didn't have much strength at the time, could destroy a life so easily. Does this mean that if one day I can't control myself, I will do something to myself and my family? Finally, my father told me that in war, you can only survive if you are used to death. I've persevered until now. I respect life, but there is something more that compels me to respect them more. ”

"What is more worthy of respect than life?" said Mastma to himself, "is it for this belief that you will live for five hundred years? I'm not as talented as you......" She looked down at the hands of the two demons clasped together, "You haven't promised me yet." ”

"I don't have to say it. Lovian smiled, "Leon is not as cunning as Akayl. Even with my mouth, I'll be fine. I know that the Southern Black Wings have been looking for Gremmel's tracks. With the help of this, they might be able to use their resources to find traces of Siu - of course. Certainly not as effective as the connection between Orca and his twins. ”

"Can Orka succeed alone?" Masterma turned, looking back at the simple chandelier on the ceiling.

"We have an unexpected ally, and I think that's the biggest takeaway for us. If Siu really comes back, no matter how sluggish the situation is, it can be reversed immediately. All we have to do now is try to be able to hold our heels before the time comes. ”

“...... I'll think about who it is tomorrow morning...... So sleepy. Mastma whispered.

"Then have a good dream. Lovian leaned over and kissed her lightly on the neck.

"Yes, my Legionnaire. ”

The ground of Dongdu Linhai is forever filled with a layer of warm mist. The reason why it is called warmth is because in this layer of misty water droplets, there are golden-green elves that are the most friendly to life. In the rainforest world of the Eastern Forest Sea Layer, through the eyes of life in the spiritual space, countless dancing life element spirits leap in this beautiful space, singing the praises of Osiria with unbroken songs.

Because of this excessive humidity, the railway to Guò Ming City can only pass through the deep forest belt of several hundred kilometers by means of a low viaduct and stop at a railway station about 50 meters above sea level outside the Dark City.

"The 7013 train has arrived at the station, and the terminal station is the Golden Cherry Blossom Dark City, please hurry up and count your salutes and belongings to leave this train, and pay attention to the gap between the platforms......"

The light and elegant voice of the elven flight attendant echoed through the magic of the station, which was built to be a giant tulip. After a chaotic fluctuation of magic, a large crowd poured out of the platform, many anxiously calling out the names of the people who answered at the exit.

Mercedes quickly found the young figure, and she hurried to the side of the large limousine, rummaging through the slender bow and arrow wrapped in a canvas with her name on it.

A few seconds later, the royal elf, with its long golden-green hair, struggled to pick up a longbow taller than his own height and ran towards the exit. Seeing Mercedes from afar, Helina exclaimed excitedly:

"Sister May!"

Mercedes, dressed in a burqa to conceal his identity, smiled and waved his arms, then hugged Helina affectionately as she ran over.

"It's only been a few days since I see you, so you miss your sister so much?"

"My sister was five hundred years late!"

Helina still wore the familiar gold headband, perhaps evoking Mercedes's carefree memories of the past days before the Patriotic War, in Eore and Dongdu Linhai, and her gaze was slightly misty.

"What's wrong?" said Helina with concern.

Mercedes smiled a little playfully, "Now your sister is even older than me!"

"But my sister will always be my sister. Hellina said and patted the longbow on her back, "I can finally help Sister Maith this time!"

"Actually...... Just show your face. Mercedes retracted his smile, "Speaking of which, there are more Golden Cherry Blossom citizens of other races in Mingcheng, and most of them know you. We don't like violence. ”

Helina nodded as if she didn't understand, "yes...... Oh, sister, that ...... What happened to that Harmaniah. ”

"Think like you think. Mercedes let out a long sigh, "He knows so much about the Dead Sea, even if it wasn't for me, the Lubistans would have done it." It's just a matter of letting him weaken us as much as he can before he does it. ”

Helina lowered her head a little gloomily, in the past five hundred years, although the two royal elves have no intersection, but in any case, they are the only two royal families who have not fallen into a deep sleep. Hearing the news of his death, Helina still felt a pang of sadness.

"The royal family still can't afford such a loss. Helina subconsciously straightened her long hair, "So, what about Grant?"

This time, Mercedes shook his blonde hair casually, "It was announced that he was executed, and in fact I gave him to Lovian...... That Legion Commander, he doesn't have a place to stand in the land of golden cherry blossoms anyway. ”

"The Demon Legion Leader, the Demon Clan we saw in the Holy Land that time?" Helina asked with a wink.

Mercedes nodded, "If the Demon Emperor returns one day, it must be his kindred who will be supported." When the Darkness returns, the dominance of the Osilian Empire will be gradually broken, and it will be a good opportunity to restore balance and achieve lasting peace. So first of all, we must give the demons further attention, and then appropriately ...... with the Holy Land No, it's the psychic family who contacted the Demon Emperor about it...... I'll tell you the details later, really, I can't help but say so much!"

"Sister May's ideals are so ambitious!" said Helina, laughing.

Mercedes tapped Helina on the forehead, "The current royal family is the royal family again...... (to be continued......
