Chapter 679
"Forget it."
Emilia turned and left. How could a hero like her bear that?
It seemed that someone had told her that she must not fall into such a trap.
Even if she had to give up the treasure temporarily, she could not be manipulated by others.
At worst, she could come back to get it when she was strong enough.
For some reason, she always felt that there was another sword that could replace the holy sword.
She was determined to leave and give up, and the soft light around her flickered at this moment.
The light ball in the middle suddenly flickered violently.
The whole space seemed to be about to break.
Obviously, Emilia could not stay here, and she could still leave if she wanted to.
The light ball was anxious, and it suddenly let go of the holy sword in the empty cavity.
"Take it, hero, it really should belong to you."
Before, it forced Emilia to exchange the treasured thing, and refused to give it no matter what.
But now, the hero gave up the holy sword and wanted to leave, but took the initiative to hand it over.
Looking at the holy sword floating in front of her, Emilia suddenly... felt a little disgusted.
Because of her disgust, she didn't reach out to grab it.
Until this space was broken, she suddenly heard the last words left by the light ball.
"Sooner or later, when you need its true power, you still have to exchange it for something you cherish. This is... the inevitable price."
"Dong".
When she returned to the lakeshore, the holy sword was inserted into the land in front of her.
It was so shining and so dazzling.
It seemed that as long as you get it, you can be invincible, and all demons and evil spirits will be destroyed under the strongest holy power.
It is the strongest artifact in the world, no one else.
But Emilia still felt a little disgusted.
How to say...
Sure enough, what others gave her was not a good thing.
Suddenly, she heard the goddess's hazy whisper again.
The god who had been watching her seemed a little happy.
He was happy that she could make the right decision without the guidance of the gods.
She was also happy that she didn't fall for the trick and directly offered her precious things.
The Brave Cat thought about it, and still pulled out the holy sword and waved it.
Well, at least it won't break or damage easily, and can be tossed around at will.
Chapter 257 How did you know, Mom?
"And then you were awakened by a nightmare?"
In the simply decorated room, Selena hugged her daughter and comforted her softly.
Rafael cried in her arms, unable to control her tear glands at all, letting her tears and snot wipe in her mother's arms.
If it were usual, Selena would definitely push her away with disgust, and then scold and encourage her, saying that she should be strong and not cry like a squeamish bag.
But now she felt so distressed that she couldn't bear to say a harsh word.
"Woo, it's all my fault. I brought the danger back. If I had paid more attention at that time."
Rafael sobbed again, her blonde hair was messy, and her bangs were soaked with sweat and stuck to her forehead.
She was pale and still in shock.
This made her mother so distressed that she comforted her again.
"It's okay, it's just a nightmare. This is also a reminder for you to be careful in the future so that such a terrible tragedy will not happen."
Rafael suddenly raised his head, his red eyes turned around, and he seemed to finally react and patted his chest.
"Actually, the tragedy hasn't happened yet. I just feel guilty and sad."
"... Hmm? Did someone save you in the end?"
Raphael tried to recall for a moment, his eyes slightly lit up: "It was Iris. She stood in front of me. With such a big shield, she directly caught the ultimate move. It's amazing."
"Hmm? Holy Light Shield?"
Raphael pondered for a moment and shook his head: "No, the Holy Light Shield is not that strong. It seems to be emitted from her bracelet. After blocking the ultimate move, the bracelet was broken. It should be a very powerful defensive magic device, much more powerful than the one in our house."
"Since the tragedy didn't happen, why are you so sad?"
Raphael's eyes flickered for a moment.
She didn't remember many scenes in the dream, but...the only unforgettable scenes were the murder of her mother, the nightmare, and the fact that she was almost killed.
The culprit turned out to be her father.
This was the most difficult for her to accept.
Just like the dream before, it seemed like it would really happen, so she cried so sadly.
But how should she tell her mother about this?
My mother would be very angry after hearing it.
She just came home and said such outrageous words, and it was just a dream, I think she would definitely be beaten.
Oh, but... these are obviously not simple dreams.
Even if she is slow, she can find it very unusual.
When Rafael was racking her brains to think about how to tactfully remind her mother, she didn't notice Selena holding her, with a deep look.
In her calmness, there was also a hint of murderous intent.
She actually had a dream, but it was vague and she couldn't remember it clearly.
But she remembered the red dragon, she seemed to be betrayed, and she also remembered the scene where her daughter almost died.
Especially the last scene, which was so similar to what Rafael described.
Selena was more certain than Rafael that this was not an ordinary dream.
After thinking for a while, seeing that Rafael had stopped crying and was still in her arms in a daze, Selena patted her butt.
"What are you still standing there for? How long do you need me to comfort you for having a nightmare? You're already 18 years old."
"Hiss, Mom, be gentle!"
Rafael quickly covered his buttocks and sat up: "I was scared, Mom, haven't you ever had any scary nightmares?"
Selena smiled coldly: "Of course I didn't, I also dreamed that you fell in love with that married man, the Son of God."
"What! Mom, how did you know?!"
Rafael's face suddenly turned red, and he jumped up from the bed, looking at his mother like he saw a ghost.
"Why are you making such a fuss? I just dreamed that you kissed in front of me. Um...wait, what you mean just now is that you are really with him?"
"That...this...are all dreams, ahem, Mom, please tell me clearly what you dreamed about?"
Suddenly, the two realized something at the same time, and their expressions became solemn.
...
Cracking the Philosopher's Stone is not an easy task.
It is useless to just know that it can erase cause and effect. You also need to know how to wake it up.
You have to know how to turn it on and how to start the program before you can enter the command.
This is not as simple as simply injecting magic power. Qiyu has devoted almost all of his heart and soul to it.
She knew from Lin that the cost was huge, so she also wanted to reduce the cost through research.
At least there is no need to put two sword masters on the resistance camp, which is a heavy loss for the resistance camp, equivalent to cutting off the left and right arms.
"Junior brother, I will be in seclusion later and cannot be disturbed in the middle. I will let the Meteor Sword Master handle the war. If you want to see Emilia, go ahead."
Qiyu left this sentence and dragged Angela to seclusion.
In the huge palace, only Rin and the maids he didn't know were left.
He turned around and didn't even see Qiyu's men, Lilim and Qingwan.
Sitting in a daze on the chair, he suddenly felt something in the storage bag fluctuate.
Lin quickly opened the space bag and checked it. He exclaimed and took out the key.
The key, which originally had only one section, now suddenly had two more sections, leaving only the last skull head.
This means that two girls have completed the task.
So... there is only one left?
Lin stood up in an instant, feeling extremely anxious.
Since he could leave the trial at any time, he couldn't waste time here any longer.
The important thing was to find Emilia as soon as possible.
Lin went directly into Qiyu's study, took out the strategic deployment map, compared the direction, and directly led a griffin, ready to set off at full speed.
A few days later, he finally arrived at the second line of defense.
In order to avoid the harassment of the flying demons, he had to work hard, but fortunately he got there without any danger.
From here, it's only a hundred kilometers to reach the front line.
Lin is going to rest and replenish here.
Fortunately, he was more careful when he went out and brought the badge directly under the demon king, so he was not stopped outside by the soldiers on the line of defense.
He even saw Raphael who was resting at the second line of defense.
However, they were still strangers here, and they could not say a few words. After Lin finished his supplies and changed his sprinter, he left in a hurry.
From the second line of defense forward, there were more air forces of the alien demons, and it was difficult to pass through with the griffin alone.
It would be better to set off with the soldiers who kept wandering to the front line.
However, when he just arrived at the front line, he still didn't see Emilia. He was told that she had already rushed to the front to fight against an ancient alien demon.
Lin always felt that he didn't have much time to stay.
So he gritted his teeth and rushed out of the defense line, heading in the direction pointed by the soldiers.
He felt that no matter what, he had to see the useless cat here before leaving.
If he couldn't see it, it only meant that the useless cat himself was indeed not in the same world as him, but if he saw it, then...
Lin couldn't imagine what kind of useless cat it was.
Chapter 258 I finally saw her
The ancient demon was 100 meters tall, with three snake-like heads, a human-shaped body and a huge tail.
From a long distance, Lin could already see the terrifying demon's body that looked like a skyscraper.
At this moment, the Titan demon was twisting its body wildly, with three heads opening their huge mouths, one spewing out ice wind, one blazing flames and one lightning.
The rumbling sound was accompanied by the shaking of the earth, and even Lin could feel the terrifying pressure at this distance.
The sky was overcast, and the dust rolled up formed yellow sand all over the sky, and soon the sandstorm obscured the view.
Only the vague outlines in the yellow sand and the sound of the earthquake roared, witnessing the fierce battle.
