Chapter 654
Chapter 650: The forgotten brave and the omen of destruction (4)
The city of Bishui, which is backed by the Great Lake of Ibera, is currently the largest city of refuge in the world.
Because of the large number of refugees moving in, Bishui City, which was originally a trading city, has now expanded a lot, but due to the scarcity of building materials, the expanded part of the city’s fringe is shanty towns similar to slums, so from the sky From a bird’s eye view, the gray edge area, which has far exceeded the area of the main city, seems to give people a feeling of spreading mold…
In the center of the main city, the building originally used as a bell tower has now been expanded into a small castle, and the bright white glow is overflowing from the highest spire of the castle, and finally a hemispherical shield is formed over the city. Prevent residents in the evacuation city from being hurt by the falling black snow in the sky.
In the room of the minaret, a durian-sized ball-shaped thirty-two-hedron hung from the ceiling, and a silver-haired girl was kneeling on the floor below the thirty-two hedron, her head hanging down and her hands clasped in prayer.
The brilliance of holiness flowed through her, and the appearance made people can’t help but think of words such as “angel” and “goddess”.
Holy power-this was discovered only two years ago, a kind of power similar to magical power.
After the mutation happened, the Holy Power was also proved to be one of the few forces that could stop the erosion of the black snow.
“Ms. Xia, it’s time to change shift.”
Several people wearing white cloaks walked up the stairs at the edge of the room one after another. If they are someone who knows the new church, they will find that the ornamentation on the white cloak means that they are all masters of the new church with powerful holy powers. Bishop-level existence (the old church collapsed three years ago).
This is the core of the refuge city, and the holy power is diffused through the ancient magician core above the room to form a barrier to protect the city. Without this, Clear Water City would soon become a dead city in the outside world that turned into a purgatory on earth.
The young girl was naturally Xia Xueyao who had crossed over with Yi Qing.
After the sacred power was discovered, she was soon certified as possessing a talent for sacred power that is unattainable by anyone in this world. It usually takes thirty-two bishops to squeeze in this small room to pray together. She is alone. It can be done, even in terms of the strength of the shield, it is much stronger than the state of thirty-two people.
But after all, she is still a human being, and it is impossible to support the shield all the time, so it is necessary to change shifts.
“Okay.” Xia Xueyao stood up from the ground, her face inevitably showing a little fatigue, she patted the dust on her skirt and planned to leave the room.
It was just that when she was walking towards the stairs, she stopped as if suddenly remembering something, and asked the one who took the lead among the bishops: “By the way, Yiqing should have returned, right?”
The bishop’s face froze, and he didn’t seem to know how to answer the other party.
Although Xia Xueyao had always been mouthless, she was actually quite sensitive and realized what was going on almost instantly.
She didn’t embarrass the other party either, but turned and ran to the stairs quickly.
“Ms. Xia… go to the residence of the Royal Princess, where you should be able to understand what happened.” In the end, the bishop couldn’t stand his own inner condemnation, and said to the girl.
The latter just nodded and disappeared into the corridor.
…
Because the royal capital has also fallen, the royal family of the Frost Eagle Empire can naturally only move to Clearwater City-although that is the case, in fact, only the eldest princess survived the royal family.
However, Her Royal Highness did not build luxurious buildings at such a difficult time because of the boring face of the royal family, but only expropriated a villa of a wealthy businessman near the central area as his residence.
When Xia Xueyao came to the princess’s residence, she found that Lin Qian was talking with the princess. The expressions of both of them were a little heavy and gloomy. It seemed that the content of the conversation was not pleasant.
“Lin Qian!” After all, they have been together for three years, and the familiarity between the three no longer requires a suffix such as “classmate” after the name.
Xia Xueyao asked straightforwardly: “Where is Yi Qing? Didn’t he lead the team to search for supplies with you today?”
Lin Qian’s face darkened with naked eyes, and she bit her lip and couldn’t say anything.
Xia Xueyao looked serious and stared at her silently.
After a while, Lin Qian seemed to be doing her best, and squeezed out from her throat: “We have met the spirit of chaos… Yi Qing is to cover us…”
Although she couldn’t say anything in the end, Xia Xueyao already understood what she was going to say.
The blood on the girl’s face disappeared suddenly, turning pale.
She took a deep look at Lin Qian, her eyes full of disappointment, and then ran towards the door without looking back.
“Wait a minute, where are you going, Miss Xia!”
The eldest princess of the Frost Eagle Empire couldn’t help but asked anxiously.
“Go save Yi Qing.”
“Please don’t be so impulsive… Our palace will immediately prepare a rescue plan for Mr. Yi Qing. As a precious priest, for your own safety, Miss Xia should stay in the safe Clear Water City and wait for the news.”
The eldest princess quickly tried to stop the other party.
To be honest, the eldest princess feels that Yi Qing’s survival may be minimal.
After all, those monsters…that is, the existence called Chaos Spirit cannot be killed, so when facing them, it is correct to induce them to a place with more complicated terrain, and then escape from chasing afterwards. s Choice.
Just according to Lin Qian’s previous description, it is almost impossible to escape alone in the presence of dozens of Chaos Spirits-and there are still several heads of stage III. Yi Qing can only do his best to hold the opponent.
The fact that he has not returned to Clear Water City until now also illustrates this point.
No matter how powerful a warrior is, his physical strength and energy are limited. Sooner or later, weaknesses will appear due to fatigue, and eventually he will be killed: the fall of countless strong men in the early stages of the catastrophe has proved this, even if Yi Qing came from another world. The brave are no exception.
In this case, at least Xia Xueyao, who is currently very important to Bishui City, should be protected.
——The princess did not ignore Yi Qing’s life. In fact, when Yi Qing assisted Finn to terminate the war between humans and demons three years ago, the girl had already secretly fallen in love with this alien man.
But she is the royal family of the Frost Eagle Empire and currently the highest leader of Clearwater City.
Her words and deeds are related to the lives of more than 300,000 people in Bishui City. When making a decision, she must be as free as possible without personal affection, so sometimes she seems more cold and ruthless.
“Your Royal Highness…No, maybe you should be called Your Majesty Queen now. You seem to have made a mistake.” Xia Xueyao finally stopped, but did not look back, but said in a rare, cold tone: “I will stay here, not because of how high you treat me, or how many people can be protected and saved here, but simply because Yiqing is here.”
The other two girls in the room were speechless.
“So, when Yi Qing is no longer here, I will naturally not stay here.” Xia Xueyao didn’t mean to worry about the other party’s psychology, but continued: “For me now, the important thing is not to go to the meeting now. It won’t be too late, but if I save him.”
After speaking, the girl took another step.
“Wait a minute!” The eldest princess shouted loudly, her eyes sharpened: “The palace will never let Miss Xia go to death! Even if you use force, you must stay! Come on! ”
As soon as the voice fell, several heavily armed guards rushed in from the door.
“Her Majesty the Queen thought that these people could stop me?”
Xia Xueyao’s tone became colder.
Even if it is the weakest in the Yiqing trio, after nearly three years of experience, Xia Xueyao’s strength can be regarded as the world’s top hand, not to mention a few soldiers, even if it is pulled out. Ten thousand troops come to practice, and it is not certain that whoever loses or loses.
“Naturally, this palace does not think that a few ordinary people will be Miss Xia’s opponents, so…” Her gaze fell on Lin Qian: “Please also Miss Lin Qian to prevent Miss Xia from leaving here… I believe you too. I don’t want to see my friend die in the hands of Chaos Spirit in vain, right?”
As soon as she said this, Xia Xueyao, who seemed a little careless, immediately got serious. She turned and stared at Lin Qian, and the invisible holy power rose from her body.
It is true that Xia Xueyao is already quite strong now, but in terms of combat effectiveness alone, it is still the weakest among the Yiqing trio. Once Lin Qian got serious, it was really not easy for him to leave here.
Lin Qian’s expression was slightly dull, and then she raised her palm towards Xia Xueyao.
In the next instant, the few soldiers behind Xia Xueyao were all knocked out by invisible forces, and fell to the ground unconscious.
“Miss Lin Qian?!” The eldest princess was taken aback, then looked at the instigator in amazement.
But at this time, the expression on Lin Qian’s face seemed to have figured out something, and the writing was filled with a sudden sense of clarity: “Yes, people almost forgot their original intention. Xue Yao, let’s save Yi Qing together. !”
“It’s worthy of being my eternal opponent.”
Xia Xueyao showed a rare smile.
“You… are you all crazy!” the princess couldn’t help but yelled angrily.
But Xia Xueyao and Lin Qian ignored her.
At this moment, a harsh alarm sounded outside.
Along with the sound of the sirens, there was also the heart-piercing screams of the watchmen above the mansion who were monitoring the external situation through watch magic.
“Be careful! A black cigar-like thing came down from the mountain!”
