Fairy’s Box

Edinburgh, the Restoration site.

In a temporary residence in the northeast corner of the camp, it was dark, the sky outside the window was as blue as water, and the mountain wind blew the woods.

Merlin lay flat on the bed, with the staff behind his head, his eyes closed, and his chest rose and fell slightly with his breathing. A layer of translucent blue soft light was wrapping around his head, like a mass of sticky glue, constantly twisting and fluctuating.

The soft light seemed to be unusually stable. As time passed, it did not increase or decrease, and it quietly adhered to the skin of Merlin's head.

I don't know how long it took, the mountain wind outside the window gradually changed a little bit.

He only heard a light click, and the translucent halo on Merlin's head suddenly collapsed. He immediately opened his eyes, sat up from the bed, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his face.

"Lilith betrayed me."

While the old mage sighed, he quickly got out of bed, pulled out his staff from under the pillow, and quickly left the bedroom.

The outer hall was quiet, without a single sound. Under the bright light, some fine dust slowly fluttered. He rushed to the right corner at the fastest speed, dug through the brown floor, and planed out a wooden box full of precious metals.

"I didn't expect that I've been lurking for so long, and I'll give up at this time... I can only wait for the owner of the Sword in the Stone to be born, and then find a chance to get close to her."

Merlin glanced at the precious materials in the wooden box, glanced at his house, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

There was a lot of dignified blood in the wind, which was captured by his reconnaissance spell. Combined with a series of recent actions of the Rosevians and the life breath of the tree elves, Merlin knew that he must have been betrayed.

Although he also expected such a day, he did not expect it to come so quickly.

Lilith, a stupid woman, is really not enough to make a profit. If she is not that person's biological mother, I vow to make her suffer a little.

Reaching out to the sack at his waist, he gently pulled the string that fastened the sack tightly, and Merlin took out a light blue pearl while pinching it.

"You can only leave first."

He let out a slight sigh of relief, tossed the blue pearl in his hand at will, turned around and walked out of the room without looking at it.

The pearl lightly landed on the red carpet, and with a snort, it suddenly turned into a circle of light blue flames, slowly spreading towards all directions.

With a whimper, everything the blue flame touched, from blankets, desks, bookshelves, chairs, accessories, everything, was instantly ignited. Crimson flames suddenly filled the entire mansion.

"Стелс?!"

In the flames, Merlin chanted a spell, leaned on his staff, and knocked **** the floor.

Boom-!

A layer of water-blue ripples surrounded him, forming an eggshell-shaped translucent barrier that blocked the invasion of the flames, and led the mage's figure to fade in the firelight, and finally disappeared completely.

The house was raging under the fierce blue flame, and all the mana fluctuations, the correspondence, were all burnt out by the fire ignited by the blue flame, including the remnants of Merlin's breath in the house...

"Come here! Lord Merlin's house is on fire!"

"Come on, come on, come and put out the fire!"

"You go to contain the fire first, I'll go find the ice fairy!"

Soon, most of the restoration troops who had surrendered their weapons and had been incorporated rushed to the source of the fire with buckets in their hands, and some of them with good skills even ignited their fighting qi and rushed into the sea of ​​​​fire to look for Merlin's traces.

"A step too late..."

The fire field was near the top of the towering gray-white arrow tower. Lydia's eyes were reflected with a blue fire, and she silently watched this scene, her white face showing a hint of coldness.

After the army of the Governor's Palace, who had been ordered to cooperate with her to capture Merlin, rushed to the fire, they looked at the scorched black ruins, each with an annoyed expression.

The female knight jumped lightly and jumped to the vicinity of the wreckage of the house, with her hands behind her back, she searched the ruins step by step.

The army of the Governor's Palace also seemed to know that she was looking for clues, and they all distanced themselves one by one, silently.

Walking in the smoldering ruins of the house, Lydia felt the softness of the scorched black ground step by step, her ear strength, and her spirit were all released. Immediately, the chirping of birds and insects in the woods and the crawling of small mice and animals were all included in her perception.

The images reflected by these voices also appeared in Lydia’s mind one by one.

Now she has a feeling that after hearing the sound, the images of insects and animals crawling on the eaves, grass, and underground are also "seen" along with the sound.

Listening intently, the female knight even felt a picture of a toad sticking out its tongue to prey on a fly in a well twenty paces away from her, as if her eyes were moving.

This is a sign that your physical strength has been strengthened to the limit and you are beginning to feed back your spirit. Have you begun to awaken to the origin?

Lydia's heart thumped, knowing that such a clear perception must be the scene of a surge of spiritual power. When the mind and body reach the peak at the same time, they will gradually awaken to the origin.

Suddenly, a very slight rhythm awakened the female knight from the joy of awakening.

"It's been hiding in place... I was almost deceived by you."

Lydia raised her head, her eyes flashed like needles, she raised her right hand like lightning, and her scorpion-tailed scarlet index finger shot straight ahead.

Whoosh-!

The dark red light flashed away in the space, hula pierced a section of the charred wooden beam, and in the space twenty steps away, a burst of sparks suddenly splashed, and at the same time, there was a crisp sound of glass colliding.

"To be able to find me under such circumstances... The Governor's Mansion is indeed as strong as a cloud."

With an old sigh, a violent light and shadow floated in the space. Merlin's figure holding the wooden box slowly appeared in the siege of the guards.

"Sure enough, it's you, Mage Merlin, the Governor has something to see you, you'd better cooperate."

Unlike when she was still in the Black Seat, Lydia, who had been honed many times, was a high-ranking knight who was already able to stand on her own.

"Being able to perceive me, who is covering my breath so close to nothingness, must be close to the origin of awakening, right?"

Merlin's old voice entered the ears of the female knight. It sounded very gentle, but in the gentleness, there was an unpredictable profound feeling.

"you know too much."

A trace of anger rose in Lydia's heart, but Xiu Xiu's facial features remained motionless, and her eyes were fixed on the slightly hunched body of the other party.

"Unfortunately... Even a fully awakened origin knight like Lord Paddy died in my hands in the end!"

Suddenly, a gust of mountain wind blew and completely collapsed the broken walls on the ruins, and the sun fell on Merlin's walnut-like face, motionless.

laugh--!

There was a sudden light sound, like the sound of a match being ignited by friction.

On Merlin's right shoulder, a burning blue flame bead instantly appeared. The fist-sized blue flame bead slowly burned and turned, but it did not release any heat at all.

"old man!"

Lydia's eyes showed a deep chill, her body was taut like a bowstring, and she shot suddenly, one step across a distance of twenty feet, and the scorpion-tailed index finger instantly pierced the opponent's right shoulder.

"Hehehehe..."

In the deep laughter, Merlin raised his head suddenly, and the robe on his body suddenly burned with a thick blue flame. His whole body instantly turned into a human-shaped torch, and then quickly contracted into a ball of fire, which expanded and exploded with a bang, forming a flame giant dozens of yards high.

The flames suddenly rose into the sky, and the figure of the female knight disappeared in the flames.

"Get ready to hunt!"

The two hundred guards, all wearing anti-magic armor, even their heads were wrapped, instantly ignited their fighting spirit!

The figures of the thirty guards at the forefront, their backs bent into a bow in an instant, and they could be directly heard in the air bending their backs, arching their bodies, pulling their muscles and bones, and making a bang bang bang sound.

In this sound, thirty crimson flames accumulated, and then burst out.

Chong——!

Thirty demon-breaking long swords, flashing with dazzling red light, were pulled out at the same time. Dozens of people drew their swords, as if one person were pulling their swords. There was only one voice, and the coordination seemed to be flawless.

Bow, burst, and draw your sword at the same time! Sprint! containment!

In an extreme amount of time, they completed five movements, the body dragged the flames and spread out in an arc, and the sword edge swept over twenty steps, interweaving into a dense sword net, forming a circle from front to back. Cover the flame giant in the middle.

Whoosh whoosh-! !

Another hundred or so new army soldiers immediately raised the rapid-fire guns in their hands, and the burning flames quickly solidified.

Roar--! ! !

A deafening roar came from the flame giant's throat, long and deep, and its body swelled up at the same time, as if it was full of air.

Boom-!

The flame giant's body expanded about twice as large, and a blue flame aperture immediately separated and spread, and the airflow in the air exploded violently, slamming into the thirty demon-breaking swords.

With one blow, the flame giant's body retracted to its original shape, but the detached flame aperture expanded in the wind, the thick layer of soil on the ground was baked to black, and the flames slammed into the guards.

boom--!

The entire resettlement camp seems to be sinking downwards. Looking from above, you can clearly see that one blue and one red light circle expands and contracts, ruthlessly repelling light of different colors.

The sand was rolled up by the shock wave, forming a turbulent fog area, and the splashing fire pillars were like meteorites, making a roaring air.

Boom boom boom boom!

A series of shelling continued to splash sparks on the flame giant, the blue flames rose high, and when it fell, it was like rain, scalding the ground.

Roar--!

In the indiscriminate bombardment of the hundred and ten rapid-firing cannons, the flame giant's body shook violently, and when it was about to collapse, a distant and deep voice burst out from the body, vaguely mixed with an obscure and lengthy incantation.

Its entire body gained strength again, and its size expanded again, and a layer of hazy crystalline armor appeared faintly. Under the covering attack of the rapid-fire gun, it only shattered, but did not collapse.

boom--!

The flame giant rushed towards the encircling circle following the bursting aperture, stretched out his flaming left hand, dragged a tail flame from top to bottom, and pressed hard against a row of new troops who were in the way.

Merlin is very clear that the momentum of using the lava giant is too great, and he must leave as soon as possible, and no time can be wasted!

boom--!

Just as the flame giant slapped the new army, a scarlet flame burst out from the giant's shoulder, causing its movement to stagnate for a moment.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang!

Immediately afterwards, from the right shoulder to the abdomen, eight firelights exploded in sequence. This series of explosions connected into the shape of a scorpion tail, which was shocking in the huge blue body of the flame giant.

Whoosh-!

Lydia, who was wearing a natural disaster weapon, penetrated from the scorpion tail, and with a burning flame, turned her back to the giant and fell to the ground.

"you--!"

Merlin's burning pupils stared at the female knight. The face, which was completely composed of flames, suddenly distorted. The light changed from bright to dark. Then the huge body quickly disintegrated, collapsed, and turned into a whistling rain of fire that swept in all directions. .

"You're overconfident, old man."

Lydia shot behind her without looking back, instantly piercing through layers of smoke, and stabbed the right shoulder of the old mage who had returned to her human form. The just right scorpion venom immediately paralyzed his body.

The four guards quickly rushed forward, took out the Demon Sealing Chain and directly tied Merlin Wuhua, holding their shoulders and dragging them out of the scorched fire.

"Bring back."

The female knight disarmed the natural disaster, glanced coldly at the paralyzed old mage, took a step, and left the camp with the army.

...

King's study.

Ares turned his head and glanced out the window, then looked at Kenneth, who was silent on the opposite side:

"I have a series of materials for the imperial battle suit. You may use it. There are no restrictions on funds and materials, but within half a year, I want to see a giant device that can be used."

"Then there is no Big Mac, only the enhanced battle suit... Thank you for this woman." Kenneth turned the wheelchair, moved to the exit of the study, and glanced at Lilith lightly:

"Let's go, it's not easy to save a life, don't get in the way with me here."

"OK."

The queen got up quickly, walked forward quickly, pushed her future husband's wheelchair, and left the study with relief.

"..."

After the black-haired knight watched their figures go away, he picked up a small glass bottle from the table and carefully looked at the powder-like medicine inside, his eyes flashing slightly:

"This medicine must be worth a lot of money for medical use."

This time, Lilith spent almost all of her blood in order to atone for her sin. In addition to the huge compensation of 30 billion sol, she sent out the formula with stimulants.

This valuable potion was the main reason why Yale forgave her.

He believes that as long as it is used in the right way, it will definitely bring a lot of money, and the finances of the Governor's Palace that have been on the verge of collapse can also be alleviated.

Compared with the development of the Governor's Palace, a puppet queen whose wings have been cut off is irrelevant.
