"Oh, you've found out......? A talented person like you should be able to see the general trend clearly."

Li Lin shrugged his shoulders, his narrow eyes stretched, and the sneer announcing the execution sentence fell from above.

"I won't miss it again this time. ”

As soon as the words of apology for causing trouble to others fell, a rapidly expanding fireball erupted from the wingtips. In an instant, the high-temperature gas that can dissolve metal engulfs the abnormal figure and appearance, and the strong air wave detonated by the metal hydrogen missile will overturn and blow several soldiers on the ground who are caught off guard.

"Me too, I will never miss the mark. ”

The announcement of almost spilling ice splinters echoed in the hot wind, and Elise-no, it was the lack of a dull tone of [Flame Burial Witch] that made her comrades who recalled their past combat experiences break into a cold sweat.

His mastery of attack techniques is almost unmatched, and he has been nominated for the [Sage] many times at a young age. The fierce style of incinerating the enemy with all kinds of flame magic on the battlefield not only made the orcs talk about it, but the friendly troops also dodged and taboo like a plague when they talked about the name of the [Flame Burial Witch].

The female magician's disrespectful words in front of her all remembered the lesson of [obeying the virtues of the mouth] with her body turning into ashes.

"Using the operation system used for alchemy synthesis to synthesize a flammable gas mixture around [Deathwing], just a small spark can induce a gas explosion, and the effect can be comparable to a high-yield air-fuel bomb, huh-"

After the identification, a chuckle of appreciation fell from above, and the red phosphorescence that danced in the sky once again split the smoke and stabbed it with a cold teasing.

"--Wonderful trap, worthy of the [Flame Burial Witch]. Compared with the disguise of a good wife and mother, the true face of the murderous witch is more admirable. ”

Quickly change tracks to avoid feeble bows and arrows and ballistae with no accurate head to speak of. The wanton laughter looked down on Elise, who was choked on the ground, and the wonderful expression of remorse, hatred, murderous intent, anger, humiliation, and surprise pointed directly at the tail of the comet that was rapidly maneuvering in the air.

"What a good man who loves his wife. Mr. Regiment Commander. ”

The roaring dragon-shaped flames rose from directly below him, and before the angry flame storm converged with him, he once again created a barrier, and kicked a silver-white light shield that was only slightly larger than the soles of his feet, and the posture of direct flight immediately turned to an emergency climb, and the wingless, snake-like flame dragon followed closely behind, as if it had been touched by the scales, and clung to the comet's tail tightly, not letting go of the comet's core, the black-haired boy who would not stop chasing after the comet, the black-haired boy, who was not even left with ashes. But the coordinated, lively, and brisk comet was only a certain distance ahead of the flames behind him.

Kick again. Pulling away the distance between the dragon-shaped flames again, a large number of fireballs and wind blades combined with the fire dragon to strike at them, and the red pupils that didn't care slightly deviated from the direction.

Only a mage of the six-mang, intermediate or above, can cast the manifestation of the mimic life attack technique, which still maintains a clear and complete form after continuous maneuvering flight, and although it is a futile attack, its staying power is still above the prediction.

[A definition of auto-lock tracking is also attached.] 】

Make an assertion in the bottom of your heart that it will make a magician with a little common sense faint. The bright red eyes brought into view the back of the man walking like a whirlwind on the ground, aiming at the aperture to trap the shadow and switch to a locked red.

The diffuse particle cannon rains down a barrage of sub-light speeds, and the dragon-shaped flames and magic-assisted attacks that are directly hit by the beam instantly evaporate, and the 6 particle beams deflect the trajectory and kill the target on the ground.

"Don't underestimate people, little bastard!"

Contrary to what was expected, the figure that was supposed to be pierced by the beam disappeared. A thunderous roar echoed in his ears, and the man swooped down from the sky behind him with his weapon raised, thinking that there was no problem with the attack. The wings on his back transmit to the cerebral marrow the optical image of Li Nadu's sword stabbing through the inertia of gravity. The teenager who did not and disdained to do protection ridiculed each other: ...,

"It is you who underestimate people. ”

Without any emotion, the indifferent tone of the overall situation pierced into the man's brain.

The chills that trembled at the tip of the liver surrounded from all directions, and before reacting to what was going on, he kicked the [barrier] that appeared in the air hard, and the falling body turned from a vertical acceleration to a horizontal movement. The inertial load of the rapidly changing direction pressed the blood from the top of the head to the soles of the feet, the internal organs were pinched together and flattened, and in the dim field of vision, which was almost unconscious, three beams of light from different directions staggered through the position where Li Nadu had just been.

Is it another enemy hiding from across? or is it a long-range attack?

A flash of surprise flashed through his thoughts, and Li Nadu bit the tip of his tongue, exerting a sharp painful stimulus on himself that almost broke his tongue, his mouth was stuffed with the smell of rust, and his vision brightened again to catch several intermittent flashes of light in the air.

"It's those things......!!"

Under Li Lin's wings, which had been attached like feathers before, the three palm-sized crystals that had been separated from the main body were adjusting their postures at this moment, and the shiny tips moved with Li Nadu.

"Oh oh oh - !!!!!!!"

With all his strength, a loud roar burst out from deep within his abdomen. The silver arc of light tore through the atmosphere, and even the earth was affected by the vibration of the thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the particle beams that had just been shot out were disturbed by the strong magnetic field, and all of them bent and flew into the sky. The ancient gods' angry roaring thunder hit the crystal feathers that had no time to shift the firing position, and the detonating light wheel swelled in the air, and the loud roar chased the burst of thunder.

With his feet on the earth again, sniffing out the stench of burning dust from the hot wind that swept through his body—the smell of ozone unique to beam weapons, Li Nadu drew his attention from the dangerous experience of being shot into a honeycomb, and looked away from the soles of his feet, staring at Li Lin who was floating in the air with an expressionless face, pausing further movements

[This man (guy) is even more difficult than imagined].

The extremely similar testimonials resonated in their hearts, and the fierce attack and defense that failed to hurt the opponent made the warring parties begin to look at the opponent more carefully.

The calm and thorough bright red eyes stared at Li Nadu precisely and correctly, and the loss of FAU (Accompanying Attack Unit) made him readjust his evaluation of Li Nadu, and the value set by only a high-speed short sword stab was obviously underestimated, and the same was true of the silver-white one-handed longsword he wielded.

The adrenaline constantly stimulated the purple pupils under the high-spirited battle spirit to stare at Li Lin, who was floating motionless in the air, with an unimaginable attack method and strength. The power of the black humanoid in the middle of the crystal wing was completely beyond the maximum imagination that had been done before. Feeling the paralysis of the knees and shins, and the pain of the internal organs ravaged by the force of inertia is still there. I couldn't help but feel amazed at the strange power and endurance of the boy who kicked through the obstacle in the air continuously.

Although they are all above their own expectations, the correspondence and surplus are not at the same level at all.

"The Immortal Sword, the Sword of the Brave, Durandal, is more dazzling and powerful than the rumors. ”

Rather than having fought fiercely, he commented on the 140-centimeter-long sword in Li Nadu's hand with a salon-like elegance, in contrast to the antique dealers and jewellers' admiration for its ornamental and price-like ornamental appraisal of the sword's secret lines that stretched from the middle of the sword to the hilt, and the pragmatic conclusion and uncomfortable attitude of the appraisal function were also conveyed.

"It's a good sword, and the user doesn't insult this sword. However, you didn't use your full strength to fight just now, did you?"

"The guy who deliberately misses the magic and destroys a mountain really has the face to say that others will keep their hands. ”

Use the same color for the taunt, knowing that the side that can't hold your breath first will reveal a flaw that the opponent can take advantage of. Li Nadu's highly concentrated consciousness locked the seemingly flawed boy floating in the sky. ...,

Even the negligence of a single strand of hair will immediately invite a fatal blow. In the face of what can be said to be the strongest enemy he has encountered so far, even the slightest relaxation will not be allowed.

"Mutual friend, after all, we don't want to wipe this village off the face of the earth. ”

Li Lin smiled quietly.

Neither an insult nor a mockery.

A gentle smile with extreme serenity.

Although the outspoken threat in his words was beyond the limits of Lee's imagination and patience, the ball that could steer the situation was gently kicked at the feet of the former head of the Knights. By the way, there are also secret tricks of spying.

Holding down the psoas muscles with his right hand, he pressed the [What should you do?] card urging with a playful smile on Li Nadu.

"What are you going to do?"

Swallowing a suffocated breath, Li Nadu, who had his own abacus, added to the question.

"You've designed so many tricks, what are you thinking about?"

The lip line was still slightly wrinkled, and it was not clear from the mask-like smile that he was satisfied or thinking, and his red eyes stared at the humans.

Looking at that smiling face, Li Nadu and Elise's eyebrows furrowed even deeper.

###########

The basement of the church is devoid of the dim light that is inherent in the subterranean buildings, and the magic lamps placed in the corners and ceilings of the rooms fill the room and the children with bright white light.

Since it is underground, the heavy door panels and the tight soil layer isolate the hustle and bustle outside. The ventilation ducts that extend to the outside of the village are equipped with "breeze", "silent" techniques, and dust removal designs. It is very intimate to ensure noise reduction and good air circulation. The meticulousness of the builders and the grasp of the actual needs of the underground facilities can be glimpsed from this.

But even in the basement, which is more than 6 meters deep underground, there are unstoppable external things that can invade, and the successive violent vibrations are one of them.

Children who had never experienced the earthquake were taught by Sister Patty how to prevent disasters, holding their heads, crouching down, and hiding under tables and beds. A pair of wide-open eyes stared at the roof of the room that floated from time to time with a look of horror, and the curled up body withstood the vibrations that almost bounced off the ground.

None of the children spoke, and their insistence on not crying was already a remarkable achievement, and they could not have hoped for more.

[O Mother Goddess Almighty, please bless these sinless children. Deliver them out of the sea of misery. Bless them from evil. 】

The devout nun whispered a prayer to the god of service for the children's safety. This nun, who has dedicated her whole body and soul to the most sincere faith, is approaching the threshold of middle age. Never married, never had children. The skin, which is still delicate and smooth, is younger than its actual age, and it reveals a religious and sacred temperament under the light of the magic lamp.

The nuns, who used to serve as doctors and nurses of the Order, took care of the children in the village with the same care, bordering on doting. Knowing that this was the reaction of the nuns not having their own children, the adults were inexplicably happy and comforting about this, and naturally they were happy to see the children go to the nuns.

Now in the face of sudden serious events, the first person to take on the responsibility of delivering the care of the children is to have sufficient affinity for the children. I also have a nun who is highly conscious of this matter.

"Nun, when can we get out?"

The corners of the garment are gently pulled. The little girl resisted her fear, did not let the tears fall from her eyes, and looked at herself with sparkling eyes as if begging.

The instinctive fear of abnormal vibrations became stronger and stronger in the children's minds, and the fear of the small space was also induced. The first to endure this kind of pressure that even adults can't bear, and it was Chloe who asked out loud.

The same questions flickered in the eyes of the young children, who were waiting for the nun to give them an answer, to free them from their fears. ...,

"Soon, my mom and dad said. It will be over soon, and the adults will be ready to surprise us. ”

The sensible and observant children's words speak before the nun contemplates a good speech. Roland patted the dust off his hair. In addition to the perseverance of a little adult, there is also the optimism that is trying to hold it up and encourage its peers.

-- Very similar to Lee.

The nun, who was so impressed in her heart, wiped away the crystal that Chloe was about to fall, and promised all the children earnestly:

"In the name of the Mother Goddess, a qiē will end soon, and everyone is a good child. Your parents will be coming to pick you up soon. ”

The highest assurance a clergyman could make was to silence the children and the terrible shaking of the ground. With a sigh of relief, the children, who had resumed the conversation, turned their attention to Chloe, who had settled down.

"Chloe, is it true that you said that big sister and V.E company are all elves in strange clothes?"

Chloe was confined to a small tent during the convoy, and Brunhill, who was in charge of her care, did not disguise herself as a human, and when she left the camp, the elves' undisguised appearance was remembered by the little girl.

-- Very Li Lin-style arrangement.

I have never seen the sinister nature of the human heart. I didn't realize the horror of the conspiracy trap. There is no suspicion of ulterior motives, but she accepts the people and things that she sees and remembers with innocent curiosity.

On the other hand, adults can keenly perceive the mystery from it.

########

"From the very beginning, you noticed Chloe's attempt to slip into the carriage, and arranged and created the situation that the child was traveling with you, forcing the village to send men in pursuit. Then let's witness how the Scavenger Raven was wiped out by you, in a full display of force. ”

Holding back the resentment from revealing his tone, Li Nadu still realized the chilling stiffness in his voice.

The fierce battle was brought to a stalemate with the wonderful progress that one side had no intention of fighting and the other side felt that it was difficult to win.

Reducing the power of [Floating] and lowering the ground with a feather-like light and graceful movement, the beautiful landing without raising a speck of dust or making a sound is as graceful as a dance.

Li Lin did not deny or affirm Li Nadu's accusation, and his smiling and immobile face acquiesced in the accusation.

"It's too much to say anything, as if my men and I had done something too much to that kid. The fact is that the child had access to our top secrets and had to take protective measures against her, while waiting for Mr. Campbell, who had failed to do his fatherly duty, to take her away. ”

The upright signature smile became skewed in his eyes, and the sly gaze poked at Li Nadu's suffocated face, and the stinging words came with it.

"After all, that kid has something to do with the box that contains the [Key]!

Once opened, the whole world will be plunged into a quagmire of blood and fire, if not subverted, and the [box] that has been carefully protected in the convoy has such terrifying magic.

Such a terrifying power cannot be seen in the world, so the elves have always hidden the [Key] in exchange for a chance for the clan to survive, and knowing where the [Key] is is limited to a few elders of the Council.

"That's because the child is more effective alive than killing the mouth directly,"

Looking into the young man's eyes, Li Nadu's voice became gloomy.

"As a living mouthpiece, pass on the things of the Key to us, and use the Key and your power to force us to show our attitude. ”

Tian shamelessly rationalized the immoral practice of using children, and the anger in his belly burned even more violently after being poured with fuel [as it was].

Li Lin didn't have any sense of shame, and looked directly at the knight who turned into an angry lion without fear. ...,

"That's a matter of last resort, once the [key] matter is leaked, what kind of coveting and siege it will incur, Your Excellency Li Nadu can also imagine it?

"To take advantage of an innocent child for this?"

"Compared with the practice of catching up with the underage young soldiers on the front line when the country is in danger, I really don't think it's too much to ask Chloe to do a small favor. ”

[Wash up what humans have done and come back to me.] 】

The sharp subtext silenced the accusations that the members of the Knights had already rushed to their mouths, compared to the repeated incidents at the national level of sending children to the battlefield to die in needless battles, and then singing the praises of sacrifice and piety, Li Lin's behavior of using Chloe is indeed nothing. Reluctantly justifying that the actions of the human countries are a last resort due to the critical situation will only appear hypocritical, and at the same time beautify Li Lin's behavior even more.

One by one, their fists clenched, and the anger that had nowhere to vent deepened.

I don't know if I noticed the sinister and disgust in the air, or if I turned a blind eye to the scorching gaze on my body, and my snickering face didn't move at all.

"Judging by the results, I guess it's the best state, isn't it? Although this side does not have a favorable opinion of human beings, it has a variety of subjective opinions. But Brunhill didn't cook the child according to the church's propaganda, in fact, there is a subtle difference in attitude between adult and underage humans, and Chloe should tell you that Brunhill and the child are quite compatible. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
