Chapter 1608: Fierce Battle and

The scarlet light burst out from the body, and the scarlet light erupting on the Night Watchman continued to tear the wound. The 【Moonlight Greatsword】 took shape inside his body. The red moonlight sword with unique attack characteristics on flesh and blood was attached to the 【Night Watchman】, and then the blade cut through the flesh and blood and moved toward the left chest where the heart was located.

With a soft sound of Peng~, the man in front disappeared from Xia De's eyes. Xia De swung his sword and turned back without hesitation, because he was already skilled in this posture, plus the guidance of Sister Daifulin, this could simply be called a true knight's sword technique—

Dang!

The 【Night Watchman】 attached with red moon power collided with a transparent long sword. Sparks, whirlwinds, and red moon debris splashed everywhere, and the invisible long sword held by the stranger ring warlock did not break:

"A Sage-level long sword? Why do guys with spatial movement abilities like to sneak attack from behind?"

Xia De muttered in his heart. He used 【Moonlight Greatsword】 more to cover up the runes on the 【Night Watchman】 to prevent this sword from being recognized.

His right foot stepped on the ground and the 【Spatial Stability Halo】 unfolded, while his left hand, which was not holding the sword, threw out 【Light of Imprisonment】. It was just that this blow missed, and the transparent long sword shattered the 【Light of Imprisonment】 released by Xia De at close range. When Xia De tried to throw the 【Moonlight Wheel】 at close range, the seriously injured six-ring warlock finally panicked and said:

"Wait a minute, I surrender!"

To show sincerity, he no longer wrestled with Xia De with his sword, but took a step back, and the long sword in his hand also revealed its substance. It looked like a steel sword, slightly shorter than the 【Night Watchman】. Seeing that Xia De didn't make a move again, he endured the pain of flesh and blood corruption in the chest penetrating wound and said to Xia De:

"You can kill me, but you don't want to attract the church, and we don't want to use the sublimation language like this. That relic, falling into the hands of the church, is definitely not what St. Byron's wants to see. Let me go, and I will immediately stay away from Tobesk City."

He used a Darian northern accent, like a dialect from the Coldwater Port area.

"Who else is in your companion, and also, buy-life money."

"There are three of us in total. I am responsible for transferring a guard in the carriage, and the other two, one is five-ring and one is seven-ring, are responsible for blocking the road in front. We met in the New World. The seven-ring one is very powerful, and the five-ring one has a unique occult art. Besides us, there should be a group of people who want to grab that coffin, but I don't know them. As for the buy-life money... this sword cannot be given to you, give you this."

He placed a fist-sized ore on the ground, and the black ore surface had golden traces:

"Adamantine ore. Don't bargain with me, I have to treat my wound. If you don't agree, I will use a big-movement occult art to attract the church's attention... it's not about what you want now, it's about what I have."

He said while enduring the pain, his left hand glowing to treat himself, but the wound torn by the 【Night Watchman】 combined with the Moonlight Greatsword could not be treated simply.

As for that piece of adamantine ore, although it looked large, this was raw ore. After smelting and refining, the adamantine that could remain would not exceed the volume of half a thumb, which was incomparable to Xia De's former mithril cube and the mountain copper obtained from the mirror.

"Since you see the situation so clearly, why did you come to rob?"

Xia De asked again.

"I really don't have time to talk to you. Isn't it all to go further? There is no why, do you agree to let me leave?"

The injured man's tone was as if he was threatening Xia De. However, Xia De also saw that he was really dying, and Xia De didn't have time to waste here:

"Tell me the information about this sword of yours, and then go."

"Sage-level relic 【Sword of the Wind King】, a long sword blessed by the ancient wind elemental giant spirit and the old god who manages the power of the four elements. Divided into tangible form and intangible form, different forms have different characteristics. Oh, check it yourself, this is not difficult information to find."

As he spoke, he stepped back quickly. Seeing that Xia De didn't object, he jumped off the building directly. After leaving the area covered by the 【Spatial Stability Halo】, he disappeared into the air.

"【Sword of the Wind King】, doesn't it only hold if you have knightly spirit?"

Xia De thought in his heart, bent down to pick up the ore, and after confirming there was no problem, he put it away. He jumped into the air fiercely, and then chased toward the direction of the carriage in the night fog.

While Xia De solved the trouble, Dr. Schneider's group, who also encountered strange ring warlocks, had almost finished the battle.

When Xia De jumped down from the roof of the house on the street, he didn't see the five-ring warlock, only the middle-aged woman with the seven-ring life ring floating behind her was still fighting with the doctor. Priest August sat on the driver's seat of the carriage parked diagonally on the side of the street without moving, and Dorothy was hiding in the carriage taking care of the coffin.

Seeing Xia De return, Dr. Schneider, who had already occupied the upper hand, had his eyes glowing red. As the life ring behind him appeared in a corner, the blasphemous 【Destruction】 and the enlightenment 【Lava】 radiated light at the same time.

So, the red scorching rays swept forward from the doctor's eyes, melting the silver angel wing shield that had been resisting the attack in front of the ring warlock of the same level as him.

That shield was very beautiful, with crystal clear light in the night fog, and even the scattered light spots after being blown up were still very beautiful.

The woman groaned and retreated repeatedly, and then could no longer care about counterattacking. The blasphemous - 【Shadow】 spiritual rune on the life ring flashed with spiritual light, and she turned into five identical clones, one rushed toward Dr. Schneider, one turned to face Xia De, and the remaining three rushed toward the roofs of the houses on both sides of the street.

"Thunder Spear!"

"Thunder Spear!"

The figure rushing toward Xia De actually used the same occult art as Xia De. The dazzling thunder thrown from both hands collided in the center of the street, and then because of the same occult art nature, the colliding thunder actually stalemated together to form a strange light arc. If the crackling thunder light was not blocked by the silence spell, it would probably be heard by the entire factory area.

Weng~

After the stalemated thunder spear, the vertically rotating moonlight wheel separated the thunder and neatly cut the figure behind the thunder light into two halves. While the clone exploded into smoke, the silver moonlight wheel drew an arc and continued to fly upward, splitting the other clone falling behind into two halves.

And in the doctor's direction, the scorching rays with a slight sulfur smell shot from his eyes easily destroyed the clone rushing toward him, and then the giant claws emerging from the shadows grabbed and exploded another figure that had just boarded the roof on the west side.

All four figures were fake, and the last one had already disappeared on the roof on the east side.

Xia De and the doctor were not in a hurry, because the woman hadn't had time to continue fleeing, when she heard a clear voice sounding overhead:

"Where are you going?"

The woman looked up subconsciously, and saw the man-dressed beauty with purple eyes riding on a flying skeleton horse in the air. And the last item seen by the woman's eyes that had lost their luster was the obsidian pendulum constantly swinging in Luweiya's hand.

No one touched her, but her body began to petrify from her eyes until the whole person turned into a lifeless gray stone statue.

"Sure enough, once a diviner enters the middle ring, the combat power is not comparable to the low ring. This curse is excellent."

The doctor who jumped onto the roof said, not surprised at all by the situation in front of him.

"Doctor, it's not as good as you. I haven't seen you make a move for more than half a year, I didn't expect you to become so strong. If she hadn't been seriously injured by you, the curse wouldn't have taken effect so easily. She was too careless. If she had fled from the beginning like that five-ring one just now, we definitely wouldn't have chased her."

Luweiya shook her head, and Xia De, who came because he was worried, also recovered his body from the red butterfly group:

The golden-yellow rune of "My heart is clear, the sword slashes demons" became brighter and brighter in the light of the silver sword, and the shaking of the coffin was gradually suppressed.

"No need to be so troublesome."

Luweiya in the air said, slashing with one palm—Xia De felt this move was very familiar, and the gray statue exploded into powder, leaving only a shield-shaped metal badge falling to the ground with a clatter.

"So that shield is not an occult art, but a relic."

Dr. Schneider picked it up, and then the group hurriedly left here.

Guang-dang guang-dang~

A few minutes later, the gate of the remote warehouse was pushed open by Xia De. Luweiya entered the warehouse one step ahead to activate the ritual, Priest August drove the carriage and followed into the warehouse from the courtyard, while Dr. Schneider and Dorothy checked the situation around the warehouse with a courtyard.

This is the warehouse area of Tobesk West City. The entire block is a warehouse, so there is no one else to be seen at night except for the warehouse guards.

The five people busily activated the rituals arranged in the warehouse in advance. For safety, Xia De also used the spell 【Traveler's Camp】 obtained from the time adventure to set up a camp beside the coffin in the warehouse, summoning a bonfire and a tent.

This camp can not only suppress the relic in the coffin, but also help the five members of the group restore physical strength and mental strength. Coupled with the enhancement of the bonfire by 【Primordial Fire】, under this situation, this is simply a perfect occult art.

"Where did you learn this occult art? I thought that at least a high-ring warlock could learn this kind of 'something from nothing' occult art that changes the area."

Priest August was very surprised. The old priest had extraordinary knowledge and could see that this was another unique divine art.

After everything was arranged, the five people could rest for a while. They didn't plan to sleep tonight, and even Priest August, who had the lowest rank and only three rings, wouldn't have much trouble not sleeping all night.

Xia De and Dr. Schneider, who had the highest rank, climbed onto the roof. Tonight, the two of them would observe from this best perspective. Priest August, Dorothy, and Luweiya took turns guarding the coffin, on the one hand to prevent other situations from occurring due to being close to the relic for a long time, and on the other hand to take turns using the bonfire to restore mental strength.

"I've known you for less than a year, right?"

On the roof, the two looked at the distant view of the city in the fog together. The warehouse was not very high, but there were no very high buildings nearby, so the view was quite open. Looking at such a night view, Bill Schneider didn't know why, but he thought of that afternoon in midsummer last year.

"Yes, Doctor, counting from the day the silver moon shone in midsummer last year, it's been less than a year."

"This year has been really long, and your changes are also great."

The doctor looked at Xia De carefully:

"It's hard to imagine that last summer, you were just an ordinary person."

"People will change."

Xia De shook his head:

"There is nothing that will not change, I just changed a bit faster. Have you noticed that we have all changed. Doctor, you are much more cheerful than last summer, Dorothy has become a well-known writer famous in the Old World, Priest August doesn't look like he has changed, but in fact, his mood is much better, and Luweiya, the most difficult diviner to promote, has also successfully reached the five rings."

"These changes are all brought by you."

The doctor exclaimed, but no smile appeared on Xia De's face:

"I'm not sure if this change I brought can really lead everyone to the best ending."

"Why, do you need me to conduct a talk therapy for you? I am best at this."

The doctor joked, his eyes looking back at the low and continuous warehouse roofs:

"Ring warlocks will always encounter psychological problems, which no one can avoid. After all, the things we encounter are too different from ordinary people. You promoted so fast, psychological problems must exist. You didn't find it yourself because you have your cat, and Luoyisha and Annette by your side."

Although Xia De's relationship with the girls was not public, familiar people seemed to know it.

"There is a saying that ring warlocks should find a psychological anchor for themselves, so that they won't 'fly away' and lose control during the process of their own life form promotion. This anchor can be relatives, can be items, can be pets, can be responsibilities, can be missions..."

He paused, obviously thinking of himself:

"But that's for ordinary ring warlocks. You are not ordinary, everyone knows."

"My psychological problem?"

Xia De thought for a while and nodded:

"Then what advice can you give me? Regular treatment with you?"

"No, no, it's not that complicated. You just need to rest regularly in the gaps of tense life or missions, and live from the perspective of an ordinary person. This kind of problem is very easy to solve."

This was what Xia De had been doing all along. Every time he solved a matter of a chosen one, he would rest for half a month to a month. This time, because of illness, he rested for a longer time.

"I understand..."

He also sighed at the foggy night. The Outsider didn't want to talk about his own problems, so he changed the subject:

"Doctor, about where the souls of our former group leader Mr. Shelf Tim and Ms. Shana Aya went, when do you plan to tell me everything?"

"Aren't we talking about your business? Why did you change the subject so quickly?"

The doctor asked in surprise, but still answered Xia De:

"I know you want to help me... wait until we are all ten rings, no, eleven rings. According to this progress, and the frequency of you encountering demons, I think it won't take a year. But now I can tell you some information... this is related to the 'Demon King'... what are you laughing at?"

He asked in surprise again, Xia De tried to make his expression normal:

"Demon King? This title sounds like it only appears in knight novels."

Hearing this, the doctor also laughed:

"That's right, actually it can be called 'the first demon', 'the oldest demon', 'the demon of great sins'. That is the legendary first evil spirit demon recorded, the oldest evil, the original demon."

"From the Third Era?"

The doctor stood on the roof with his hands behind his back and shook his head gently:

"I want to correct a common-sense mistake of yours: although evil spirit demons ravaged the world in the Third Era and caused influences that cannot be erased even today, in fact, they already existed in older ages, but at that time they had not reached the level of threatening the world. The first demon probably came from the First Era, that, where the story of the world began."

The doctor sighed, and Xia De nodded in understanding.

This is just like although the Fifth Era is called the "Witch Era", in fact, witches were not born in the Fifth Era. From the beginning of the era, there have been the figures of those magical ladies.

And talking about the "original demon", Xia De immediately thought of the demon stories told by his friend, the demon scholar Mr. Xiao En Asmon. In the demon stories of the demon scholar, the unknown demon seems to be the first evil spirit demon.

"I don't know if it's possible to meet Mr. Asmon in Green Lake. This time, what kind of accidental encounter will it be?"

Xia De realized that he seemed to have never talked to anyone about Xiao En Asmon, so he wanted to talk to Dr. Schneider about that demon scholar. Just at this time, he suddenly noticed that the scene around him changed. The Tobesk warehouse area under the night fog became blurred and soon turned into an endless desert under the moonlit night.

The dry air carried sand and hit the faces of the two. The roof of the warehouse was still under their feet, but the courtyard of the surrounding warehouses disappeared.

"Luweiya."

Xia De called out, and the voice of the diviner lady immediately sounded in the warehouse:

"I'm here, dealing with the coffin now. However, the priest and Dorothy don't seem to be affected, I can't see them anymore."

"I can't see them from the roof either, we can only see sand. Then the doctor and I will deal with the next monster, don't come out... well, you can't come out either."

The relic power leakage again was also expected, so Xia De and Dr. Schneider were not very surprised.

The two stood on the roof of the warehouse standing in the vast desert, looking at the yellow sand all over the sky and the earthy yellow storm in the distance that almost connected the sky and the earth. The storm had no tendency to move toward this side, otherwise Xia De would doubt whether this was the desert in the seven-day trip.
