Chapter 2264

~10 min read 1,976 words

The giant cruise ship covered with blue dragon scales seemed to be supported by the sea surface, and in the roaring wind and ocean, it just crashed through the light giant whose light was constantly being absorbed from its body surface.

"What kind of Mystery Lock is this! Light Brightness Art!"

But when the "Radiant Messenger" passed through the giant's chest and fell back into the ocean, the heavily injured giant also waved his hands to create immeasurable light with the most basic "Light Brightness Art," letting that light tear apart the world of the "Sea of No Light."

The Mystery Lock was broken, but Miss Ilithyia was not injured, but flew in the air looking at the scenery that had returned to the river valley stream.

But the "Light Chaser" had already turned back from the state of the light giant to a normal-sized human, and he didn't care that the metal box fell from his hand, covering his chest's penetrating wound with both hands, letting a layer of light fill the inside of his body, and thus the flesh and blood were reborn.

This is somewhat similar to Xia De's "Active Soil."

The first full-force exchange ended with the defeat of this 13th-ring warlock; his power was naturally restrained by the dragon descendant girl. But this was clearly not over; the "Light Chaser" lowered his altitude in the air, and just as he wanted to cast a spell again, he suddenly heard the sound of wind behind him.

Turning around, Xia De, who appeared behind him out of thin air, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of scarlet poisonous mist.

The "Light Chaser" had of course heard of the battle on the beach two Sundays ago, so his body turned into light and dodged quickly, but a scarlet moonlight wheel followed closely behind.

The Light Chaser waved his hand to disperse the moonlight, and then was surprised to see that there were traces of flesh and blood corroded on his right palm. Just as he wanted to use a wonder clone to deal with two opponents at the same time, he heard a voice from above his head:

"Look at me!"

Something heavy was thrown toward his head, and the shadow of that thing had even blocked the sunlight above the "Light Chaser's" head.

He could tell this was the voice of the Elf riding the unicorn. Out of caution for the person who had pulled out the "Sword of Light," he didn't look down on the other party just because she looked young, so at least three spirit runes on his life ring shone at the same time, and a white light column as thick as a bowl shot straight into the sky.

With a "Bang~" sound, the thing that fell on his head was blown to pieces, and stone chips and dust were scattered everywhere.

And when the "Light Chaser" looked around again, he found that the dragon descendant, the Elf, and the man who had already landed were all running toward the distance.

"Wait, wasn't I the one being besieged?"

After a moment of doubt, he was not confused at all.

The angel statue that was blown to pieces now only had its right arm remaining intact. That arm spun in the sky and flew toward the stream below. The moment it touched the stream, as if time were flowing backward, the right arm absorbed all the dust and stone chips.

The petrified angel spread its wings, a slender cross sword extended upward from its right hand, and a bright white halo appeared above the angel's head. Spreading its wings, the angel of indistinguishable gender stood on the stream and looked up at the top.

And the "Light Chaser" also looked down at it:

"Sage-level relic 【Weeping Angel】... No... This is terrible."

In the mountain forest in the distance, the three who had reunited stood together and looked at the battle that had broken out again above the stream at the edge of the forest.

Xia De asked nervously:

"Emilia, you didn't touch the statue's right arm just now, right?"

"I listened to you, just grabbed its left arm."

The Elf Miss said very firmly, while Miss Ilithyia, who was holding the metal box, reminded the two:

"Look, he didn't want to fight at all; he is going to escape!"

The "Light Chaser" didn't seem to recognize what kind of relic this was, and facing an unknown powerful relic, and with three enemies who might reappear at any time, even a 13th-ring warlock immediately made the most appropriate choice.

He lowered his altitude, seemingly wanting to retrieve the box that had been picked up by Xia De, but after confirming he couldn't find it, his whole body turned into a ray of light and flew rapidly toward the northwestern sky.

The angel holding the sword originally spread its wings to chase, but after finding it couldn't catch up, it flew back to above the nameless stream at the foot of Vulture Mountain, and then fell to an angle that Xia De and the others couldn't see.

They waited for a while longer, and after confirming that the Light Chaser wouldn't return, they walked out of the forest and returned to the stream.

Except for the pierced mountain body, some trees that had been tilted by the vibration, and the rubble that had fallen from the side wall of the peak and covered the river beach, the quiet valley stream seemed to have changed nothing. Mottled tree shadows fell on the clear stream, and the pebbles under the water shone in the sun.

The three statues standing on the stone platform were intact, and the angel statue with its arms spread seemed to have never moved at all, which made Emilia, who had just carried it flying, pull Xia De's hem in suspicion and hide behind him:

"Do we still have to provoke it? Why do I feel that the stone angel is even more powerful than the 13th-ring one just now."

"No, the Light Chaser is more powerful."

Miss Ilithyia corrected:

"The Light Chaser was just restrained by my wonder, and didn't try to use moves like Sublimation Words. If we really fought, it would be impossible for me alone to defeat him head-on."

Emilia nodded like a chicken pecking at rice:

"Is that so... I am also an Elf; angels seem to protect Elves. Can it look at the face of my bloodline and not attack us?"

The pointed-eared Elf Miss, who also didn't know what kind of relic this was, asked fearfully again, and Xia De shook his head with a smile:

"This shouldn't be possible, but you can try first what kind of blessing the statue here can give you. Since we came from so far away, we can't go back empty-handed."

Actually, he was still worried that the "Light Chaser" would return again, so he thought about leaving as soon as possible.

Emilia then rode the unicorn in front, and came to the stream again with Xia De and Miss Ilithyia.

After jumping off the back of the little beast and coming to the stone platform, she examined the two Elf statues, and finally didn't choose the girl wearing a flower wreath, but reached out to touch the Elf who was kneeling on one knee with a longsword placed by her feet:

"That, cough cough, I am a descendant of the Moon Creek Elves, seeking your blessing."

Her fingertips touched the statue, and Emilia paused before withdrawing her hand. Although it seemed that nothing had happened, Xia De and Miss Ilithyia both felt the Enlightenment elements dancing in her soul:

"I learned a set of Elf sword dances, and also learned some Elf spells that require ancient Elf language... These two are seniors of the Oak Clan; although I don't know their names, they seem to like me very much.

Oh, the Oak Clan is now at St. Byron's; after returning to the city, no, after the Moon Bay matter is over, I can write a letter to tell them about this place."

After speaking, she thanked the two statues softly, and then retreated to the edge of the stone platform:

"Xia De, do I need to leave this area first?"

She was worried that if they fought in a while, she would add trouble to Xia De and Miss Ilithyia.

"No need, just watch here. Oh, Miss Ilithyia, you don't need to follow either."

Xia De said, walking alone toward the angel statue. He stood on the right side of the statue, took a deep breath to adjust his state, and then grabbed the angel statue's right hand.

The stone statue immediately began to shake, so the stone wings flapped, the halo appeared again, and the neutral face of the stone carving also turned to Xia De on the right. But immediately after, it looked down, looking at the red crystal dagger in Xia De's hand, which pierced its abdomen directly.

The stone angel looked up and met Xia De's eyes; although it couldn't speak, Xia De seemed to be able to see thousands of words from its expression.

But that complex expression didn't last long; as cracks spread from the pierced stone statue's abdomen, this antique stone statue from the previous era shattered into a pile of fragments of different sizes in front of Xia De.

Only the angel's right arm held by Xia De remained intact. Xia De first took back the 【Madeleine's Love】 given by "Desire" that could only be used twice, and then carefully took out the silver cross sword that was incomparably miraculous from the hand of that severed arm.

The longsword, which was rated the same as the 【Night Watcher】, indeed felt completely different from the 【Night Watcher】.

Not only the feel, this sword was shorter than the 【Night Watcher】, and the weight was obviously lighter. After contact, Xia De could clearly feel a certain purifying power continuously protecting himself, and "purification" was only the most basic characteristic of this 【Angel's Right Arm】.

Besides a trace of blood color near the tip of the sword that was not easy to notice, this sword was silver-white all over. This was not the silver-white after being tempered like the 【Night Watcher】, but a truly spotless silver-white, as if it could only be placed in a cabinet as a decoration.

There were only a few feather-like carvings near the hilt of the sword as decoration, but on the guard of this simple-styled cross sword, a string of runes was written—

【Holy Arm Removes Evil.】

Xia De put the right arm on the pile of rubble on the ground, and then swung the silver sword twice. The Holy Sword reflected the sunlight, making a "swish-swish" sound in the air, and when Xia De tried to guide his own spirit into the weapon in his hand, it hummed slightly, and then an extremely illusory pure white angel shadow appeared behind Xia De.

"Xia De, angel!"

The Elf Miss pointed to the phantom in surprise, and Xia De looked back, having already understood the strongest characteristic of this sword:

"It's really interesting; the effect is indeed different from the 【Night Watcher】. This sword is not mainly used for melee attacks, but to summon the angel's shadow to fight together."

He didn't continue to test, but dissipated the shadow, and then said to Emilia and Miss Ilithyia with a smile:

"Look, the relic is in hand."

"Really amazing!"

The Elf Miss and the little unicorn who hadn't seen much of the world were both surprised, but the blue dragon girl seemed to see something, her blue eyes staring at Xia De's waist where the dagger was inserted:

"That dagger is very dangerous."

"Yes, but it can only be used once... Do you know its origin?"
