"You said

Standing in a corner of the hall outside the imperial palace secret library, a silver haired girl turned her head and said to her brother in confusion, "what will our future be like?"

"Even if you ask me..."

After a moment's silence, the dark haired boy replied faintly: "I don't know."

——This conversation happened before Joshua came out of the secret library.

Put his shoulder length black hair behind his head, Lin certainly knows what his sister is thinking now.

It's only because we find that as the masters become stronger and stronger, they are less and less used as weapons.

This is really a very bad thing. Even he has to admit it. The black haired boy has already known that his master, the soldier named Joshua, has reached the point where everything is a killer. He can tear steel and wrestle with demons with empty hands. Even the dragon, he can only bow down.

His body is armor, his fingers are spears, his fists are hammers, and his palms are knives.

Most of the time, this kind of existence uses weapons just because it catches a hand... Maybe it also has the emotion of taking care of himself and his sister. Lin also knows that the host cares about their feelings.

But anyway, if a weapon is reduced to the point of "just for use", it's no different from being placed. Ying is also distressed that her own meaning is lost.

However, although Lin had the same feeling, he had different views.

"Whatever the future is, it doesn't matter."

The young man with black hair looked at his sister's green pupil and said seriously, "as long as you can follow the master, is it a magic machine or a person, what's the difference?"

He said with a light smile: "the master has always regarded us as human beings. It's unnecessary to tangle with an identity."

"But we are made and created to fight and let our master fight better!"

The silver haired girl is still very tangled. She looks down at her white hands, with a faint fluorescence floating on them. After thinking for a while, Ying turns her head blankly. She says gently: "I also want to do nothing, that is, simply follow the master, whether to use or place, it's the duty of weapons, But maybe you're right... "

The girl's voice was very light, and only Lin on her side could vaguely hear: "because the master has been treating us as human beings, we also have the desire similar to human beings. Maybe I don't want to be used, just want to be needed..."

This sister

Lin could not help shaking his head.

Maybe it was determined to be abandoned at the beginning, because she was selected by the owner by accident, which led to some inferiority in her heart. Although Ying looks ok, she is always not confident and worried about whether she will be left behind and not needed.

"Well, aren't you being needed now?"

Taking a step forward, the boy with black hair simply gave his sister a hug. He said softly in the ear of the silver haired girl with a smile: "just as I will help the host with the government affairs and you will help the host with the housework, we have always been needed - so there is no need to worry so much."

"We still have a lot to do, Shenji, not just weapons."

——When Joshua came out of the vault, everything returned to normal.

They were walking in the corridor of the palace. It was almost midnight. Joshua and others were going back to Radcliffe's house to have a rest in the property of the imperial capital. Alfonso had already prepared the banquet. However, it seemed that the dinner would not become breakfast. As for Brandon and Nostradamus, there were still some things to do, The swordsman needs to go back to the laboratory of the mage association to sort out some items, while the old mage needs to go to the scene where the demons appear.

"Remember to visit Moldova often."

Arriving at the gate of Morley palace, in the awed eyes of the guards, Joshua said goodbye to Brandon and Nostradamus. The old mage disappeared with a transmission. When the swordsman was leaving, the soldier said to him with a smile: "verdani and your two daughters miss you very much."

"Certainly, but, Joshua."

He nodded seriously. The golden swordsman looked very serious, but then he showed a teasing smile: "you are so old. Now, it's almost time to find a lord's wife, isn't it?"

"Ha ha."

She shook her head with a smile. While Joshua was preparing to respond, Ying on one side suddenly gave a cry, and then took out the communicator on her waist. The girl was a little puzzled and said, "who, how at this time..."This is a rectangular metal instrument, which is custom-made by the martial arts professors of lindongbao college. It is engraved with a two-way communication array. This magic prop can carry out long-distance communication without delay. However, although the link distance is very long, it can only fix two points of communication, so it can't be used in general. When Joshua is away from home, he usually uses this tool to contact the territory.

It's late at night. If it's not a big deal, the territory will not contact him now.

"Give it to me."

From the hands of Ying received the communication device, Qiao Xiuya frowned and opened it.

Brandon and Shenji watched the soldiers and the people on the other side of the communicator confirm their identities, and then began to talk about business. Joshua's expression was serious at first, then shocked, then angry, and then gradually calmed down: "OK, I see. Thank you very much, loranda. This has nothing to do with you. There's no need to blame yourself."

"It's OK. I'll come back to deal with this matter... It's not a big problem. The celebration banquet is not only for one day. It really doesn't matter if I don't attend. I've already met the emperor."

"I see. You can stabilize the environment and deal with it. I'll go right away."

With that, he shut down the communication array without expression.

"What's the matter, friend?"

But Brandon looked at the soldier's black face and couldn't help worrying and asked, "what's wrong with the territory?"

He could vaguely hear what seemed to be happening in the territory, and it was serious enough to let Joshua return quickly.

"Nothing, Brandon. It's just a small thing."

When he handed the messenger back to Ying, Joshua sneered, and his eyes flashed with a dangerous light: "the family's mount is not obedient, running around, causing some trouble."

——It's clear that you should watch the transmission array and don't move. As a result, you still ran past! I didn't take my words to heart at all!

At the thought of this, the soldier's face was colder: "I'll go back and teach it a lesson."

Elgina world, the next afternoon.

Under the guidance of Professor Nelson, black and a heavily armed armored army arrived at sapphire harbor, the largest coastal port in Babel province.

Sapphire port is a large port located in the northeast coast of the Gulf Federation. It has a superior geographical location and is naturally a deep-water port. Years of artificial transformation have made its cargo throughput to a terrible level. In addition, sapphire port has a beautiful scenery. Due to the constant absence of wind, the calm sea water is as bright as gems under the sun, That's the origin of its name.

The reason why the black belt was brought to, or escorted to, sapphire Harbor was that Babel's provincial capital could not provide the food and housing requirements for such a giant. Due to the eruption of sigma volcano, hundreds of thousands of refugees wandered to many cities in the province, and the capital was the largest.

With the growing national strength of the Gulf Federation, there is no problem in providing food, clothing, housing and transportation for the refugees. There is even room for carnivals to improve the atmosphere. However, the existence of Banlong is different. Although the black is very close to the elves, it can walk at will. I don't know how many cowards Longwei will scare to death, What's more, according to the judgment of the researchers, hemisaurus is a aquatic species. Although it may live in magma or hot springs, the sea water is obviously more suitable for it than the land.

Moreover, there are many foods in the sea, which can reduce the pressure on food. Even if you don't want to hunt in the dark, it's more convenient to transport food in the port than inland.

On the way to sapphire harbor, Professor Nelson, sitting at the top of the armored car, never gave up the communication with Hei. He even asked his students to take out the language research materials of the people of the plains which he had collected for many years, and correct their pronunciation problems as much as possible, but Hei's quality is not very high.

Because it always felt a chill rolling down and back on its spine, as if it had been watched by some extremely terrible existence. Now, as the blood of the ancient dragon, the half dragon has rarely felt this danger.

What's going on? It was a little restless, even if the old elf around him had been saying something, Hei didn't pay much attention to it. The frigid cold was so terrible that the limbs of the half dragon were soft.

And just as the white haired old elf Professor chattered on to the horse, the team finally arrived at a hill on the outskirts of sapphire port, from which we could see the scenery of the port in the distance.

But the spirits in the team, no matter who, were shocked to speechless when they saw the scene in front of them.

Because the sea is turning red.

In the harbor, riots are taking place. I don't know whether it happened a long time ago or just a short time ago. Under the sunlight in the afternoon, the blue sea of gems in the distance is becoming turbid with the speed visible to the naked eye. Countless black mud and rotten soil deposited on the bottom of the sea are washed up by an inexplicable force, The sea area within tens of kilometers is stained with a strange layer of black red.As the sea becomes more and more turbid, people also smell a strange smell, which is very familiar, a bit like sulfur, and mixed with the smell of dead fish often heard in port cities, which is a bit like

"Roar!"

Black suddenly responded. He turned his head and looked at Professor Nelson. The half dragon roared several times, as if he was saying something. But the old elf couldn't understand a word. In his anxiety, he suddenly understood something.

"The smell is very similar to that of volcano Dragon... Sulfur, lava, volcano... Volcano?"

Looking at the source of the Red Sea in the distance, which is floating countless dead fish, is churning, seems to be boiling sea, Nelson's heart gushed out a worst guess.

"Can we say, submarine volcano?"
