Blood skeleton Valley, the west side of the cliff.

The knight slowly raised his head and squinted at the distance from under his hood and the tip of his hair.

Winter is coming, and the wind and snow are more violent than a few days ago.

The fierce and howling wind is still cold and piercing even if you put on thick winter clothes; The ice crystal mixed in the wind and snow left several scars on his bare cheek like a blade, which also made his body more rigid and numb.

When the cold wind blew on his face, the guard Knight held the Sterling Silver Pendant on his chest. Without the protection of the Holy Cross, he should have frozen to death somewhere in the ice sheet two days ago.

He also had some impressions of his dying memory - hunger, fatigue, spasm, and even the blood flowing out of the wound was cold. The only difference between himself and the dead at that moment was that there was still the last trace of consciousness.

The moment before the spark went out, I prayed to the Holy Cross and got a "response".

In an instant, the slowing heart beat violently again, the hot blood poured into the limbs like a rush, and the faint consciousness woke up immediately!

Then... He survived.

Although from beginning to end, the guard knight was incomparably firm in his belief in the Holy Cross and never had any doubt - at that moment, at the moment when he woke up

He had never felt so close to God!

The guard Knight suddenly realized the truth - yes, he can't die, and he still carries the mission given by the Holy Cross, no matter what the mission is.

Before completing that mission, he must live until fate falls in front of him!

The snowstorm was still roaring, and the guard Knight suddenly stopped. His stiff and numb right hand pressed the hilt of the sword around his waist, and a trace of dignity flashed in his eyes.

Someone's coming.

The north wind of winter passed through the mountains of the cliff mountain, and the towering mountains blocked the sun, so that the dome with snow and ice could not see any sunshine.

The guard Knight did not move, only his eyes shifted slightly to the right.

His eyes swept through the open wilderness. Under the cover of the snowstorm, the visibility was so bad that he couldn't move normally, but even if he didn't see him, he knew who was coming.

"How did you find me?" the guard Knight said calmly.

"Some obvious clues, plus... A little bit of luck."

The voice sounded from behind. The serious guard Knight turned around, and the figure of the black haired wizard was exposed in front of him.

The guard Knight's pupil suddenly shrank, and his right hand clenched the hilt harder.

"You know what? Even at the last moment, I couldn't guess that the 'assassin' of his highness connord was you, your Excellency the escort Knight of fascism."

Lauren's face was wearing a formulaic smile, especially on the word "Assassin": "it's really unexpected!"

"We are not friends, but I respect your excellency - you have no criticism of the faith of the Holy Cross and are loyal to the Holy Cross Church; although believers may not be good people, they... At least should be principled people."

"So I'm really curious. What did his highness connord de sallion promise you so that a devout man like you would violate the principle of 'justice' and become a thug to kill his blood relatives for him?!"

The black haired wizard almost made no secret of his sarcasm, but he could not feel any anger on the guard knight. It was cold like a roaring and echoing snowstorm in his ears, and he could not feel any emotion.

"So... Why are you here?" the guard Knight said in a deep voice, "as far as I know, you are not a loyal person!"

Loren pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly:

"Well... If I said I just came to say hello to you, would you believe me?"

The guard Knight did not answer him, but directly pulled out the Mithril sword with a gap in his waist.

Good, that's disbelief.

He took a long breath, and the black haired wizard had a formulaic smile on his face: "before you start, can you answer my last question?"

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in the transaction between you and his highness Connor. I just want to know how you want to kill Brandon de saleon - his dragon milassis. You should have seen it in eboden. Even the body of the evil god is not the opponent of the great beast!"

Loren calmly said, bright silver has fallen into the palm of his left hand from his waist, and carefully moved his steps. "I don't doubt your strength, but I don't believe that the protection of the Holy Cross can let you have the power to kill dragons!"

"You guessed right. I don't have that power. No one can."

The guard Knight sank his right hand, and the cold blade approached step by step on the edge of the snow. He said silently, "but even the great beast that saved the sakran empire is not absolutely invincible."

"The giant dragon will also bleed and howl. Like birds, the broken winged magic dragon will fall from the sky, with broken bones and tendons and broken bodies. In front of the world, they are just a little more powerful mole ants, not forces that can surpass everything."

"Of course, we are smaller mole ants." Lauren tilted his mouth, narrowed his eyes and stared at each other's long sword full of gaps.

It is a weapon that can compete with "secret silver" or even better.

... once.

The guard Knight stopped, raised his sword and pointed to the cliff mountain on his side: "do you know the origin of his majesty Brandon I and blood skeleton Valley?"

"I've heard a little."

"In that 'Northern War', the younger 'o'vernier' of the two dragons fell and slept in the blood skeleton valley forever, and never soared again."

The guard Knight's tone was still cold, with some massiness and solemnity: "and where we stand

It's o'vernier's burial ground! "

The dark haired wizard suddenly widened his eyes.

"According to the records of the church, o'vernier suffered a heavy blow in the bloody battle. When his right wing was injured, he made a rapid landing from the sky. In order not to hit the army on the ground, his majesty Brandon I ordered it to fly East. Unfortunately, he hit the cliff mountain."

Slowly raise the sword edge, and the silent voice tells that the guard Knight continues to move forward. They have approached within ten steps!

"But it was not the impact that really killed o'vernier, but the thunder in the north."

Thunder in the north?

The black haired wizard was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and looked at the cliff mountain for a moment, he understood.

It's an avalanche!

"Dang --!"

At the moment when the guard Knight's blade fell, the bright silver of Loren's right hand once again burst into a gray blue sword, and the fierce collision hit a dazzling spark, fleeting in the white wind and snow!

Lauren looked cold.

The sword of the guard knight is faster than before... No, his reaction is so strong that he can barely keep up, which is beyond the human level!

For a moment, countless schemes flashed through the black haired wizard's mind - in the face of such an enemy who is not inferior in strength and whose physical strength is far beyond his own, quick decision is the best choice.

And that unreasonable oath!

The knight in the cloak dropped his sword. In the blink of an eye, he was close to Lauren again. Within three steps, the cold blade stabbed out like a spear.

Loren slightly raised his mouth. It was obvious that the guard Knight judged himself when he was still in furnace town.

The previous "bright silver" had no choice but to continue sliding and dodging because of the limited time; But now

The pupil of the guard Knight suddenly shrank - the long gray blue sword didn't disappear and stabbed him in the cheek like thunder along the ridge of the sword!

In an instant, he made the same decision as a knight once: he took a sudden step forward, the stabbing action turned into a horizontal chop, and the staggered blade formed a holy cross shape in mid air.

"Dang --!"

The sword edge of "bright silver" is not the real essence, but constantly out of the unstable void force in the explosion - the guard Knight's strike and transverse split directly knocked the two people apart!

The distance between them once again extends beyond three steps.

"Holy Cross..."

The cold faced guard Knight held his sword in both hands and raised the cold blade above his head:

"Allow me to punish your enemies --!"
