Pillar of Yita

Chapter 57: Princess Cut Open is All Black_3


Then he turned back to ask, "How about it? Are you satisfied?"

Fang Hong shook his head, what's there to be satisfied about? At least a problem was solved. Unfortunately, they didn't find out about the connection between the other party and the Dragon Worship Church, especially with Starlight present, the other party might not have spoken anyway.

But this isn't the real world.

"What did you mean when you asked him if he knows who I am?" He only remembered this matter then and asked.

Sophie's eyes sparkled as she looked at him and asked, "Don't you know your identity?"

"Me?"

"A person in the shadow, Hero of Fenris, the next King of Grey, quite famous," Sophie replied. "You should be called this in the community, and the military is particularly interested in you, yet you seem so oblivious yourself."

Why is he oblivious? He's just quietly making a big fortune, isn't he? Fang Hong was very displeased by this, but hearing that the military was particularly interested in him, he couldn't help feeling a bit pleased; it showed that it was not far off from his original plan.

As long as the 'Seven Seas Traveler' is built, he can consider contacting the military—of course, he has to do it before his uncle and aunt find him, or he's doomed.

Sophie saw him spacing out again and couldn't help but shake her head: "I'm just worried that he knows your identity, so I asked."

"And the result?"

"You saw it yourself."

"I think you're overthinking it," Fang Hong shook his head: "How could he know my identity?"

"That's not for sure," Sophie replied, "being cautious always has benefits; this was supposed to be your concern, yet now I have to help you with it, and you're still not satisfied?" She couldn't help but glare at Fang Hong.

Fang Hong was taken aback and then couldn't help but look at her, sincerely saying: "Thank you, Sophie."

Her Highness the Princess of Silver Weslan didn't mind as she waved her hand and kicked the corpse: "Let's go, to the front... You've dealt with their spellcasters, the main situation should be settled."

"How do you plan to deal with those soldiers?" But she asked again, "Don't forget that was an agreement witnessed by the Goddess."

Fang Hong was silent, but of course, he didn't forget that.

"Would you like a suggestion?" Sophie suddenly turned back.

Fang Hong looked at her curiously.

"You promised the baron that if they were still alive, you would send them to a safe place," her Highness the Princess of Silver Weslan slightly narrowed her eyes: "The Milaila Temple at Tulip Fortress should still be a safe place, right?"

Fang Hong gasped, suddenly feeling that her Highness the Princess of Silver Weslan didn't seem as kind and amiable as the rumors said.

...

Magic Power gradually dissipated, and the wind and snow finally stopped.

Meanwhile, in the valley, the soldiers of the Dulun City Guards were all retreating.

Two knights were sweating profusely, and the Dark Fairy Tale nearby wasn't doing well either; among Ragnarok's remaining forces, only Aille and another injured Iron Guard, a Healer, and a Priest, whose life or death was uncertain, remained.

Before them stood the towering, majestic Lion Paladin and a short Magic Guided Conductor youth.

Although they weren't sure if he was really a Magic Guided Conductor.

Because seldom Magic Guided Conductors used both staff and sword—

The soldiers of Dulun City Guards were losing their morale because they found they weren't a match for the Big Cat People before them; the opponent wielded a Flying Shield, combined with a Scepter of Authority that weighed over a thousand pounds, single-handedly defeating them thoroughly.

While other members of the Seven Seas Travel Group might have some tricks up their sleeves during combat, Reed's strength was the genuine Level 20 Paladin.

Moreover, the strongest in combat among paladins—the Paladins of Marlan.

Even with Bakins joining their side, Big Cat People was still the team's number one frontline combat force, of course, with the exception of Fang Hong when fully powered.

And adding the Lion People's inherent massive strength, combined with the power amplification of the Scepter of Pride, among a group of Level 10 soldiers, speaking of gods stopping gods and Buddha stopping Buddha isn't too exaggerated.

Among the crowd, the only ones capable of stopping the Lion People were actually, apart from the two knights, only the Dark Fairy Tale and the Iron Guard named Aille.

It's a pity the Dark Fairy Tale couldn't manage on its own; besides the crossbow shooter from before, an additional Gunslinger Shooter was attacking him. This Gunslinger wasn't like the timid crossbow shooter; his shots were fast and precise, and in the previous combat, he took a bullet to the shoulder due to a slight negligence.

In fact, until now, he hadn't even found the location where the opponent was hiding.

And Aille couldn't manage either; protecting two healers alone was already his limit. If he was slightly distracted, the opponent's 'Sword-wielding Magic Guided Conductor' youth could take the Priest's life swiftly.

He previously missed a guard, almost letting the opponent use the Force Skill for a surprise attack.

In the communication list, Chen Shu and the Two-Handed Swordsman's IDs went dark as well. The two should be dead at the hands of Xiesta and Bakins, for even when their main Musketeer Porthos was present before, they couldn't take advantage over Miss Maid, let alone now?

The remaining two Noble Knights, though sharing a profession lineage with Big Cat People, differed only in the deity they worshipped. In Eteliria, battles between same professions often focus on understanding of the profession and difference in raw power.

And these two Noble Knights clearly paled in comparison to Reed, making the fight extremely arduous. More importantly, they knew the opponent had reinforcements—after all, Miss Maid and Sailor hadn't reappeared since killing Ragnarok's people.

Also, the Combat Artisan behind, and the Female Knight from earlier.

The older Noble Knight blocked the Lion's Scepter of Authority with his sword, took two steps back, and felt his stamina wearing out. He looked back at the Dark Fairy Tale not far away, seeing the latter equally struggling, knowing this fight couldn't end well.

He stepped back, raised his sword in a loud call to Reed: "Paladin of Marlan, fellow believers of the deities, executor of justice, why do you thwart us?"

The Lion lowered his Scepter of Authority casually, glanced at them briefly.

With the snowstorm halted—

The noon sunlight pierced through the valley above, shining upon his mane of chestnut-red, the Big Cat People slightly shook his head, causing his Copper Ring to jingle lightly. A serious expression flashed in his pale silver eyes, he placed his left hand upon his chest, responding:

"The Goddess told us, justice lies not in status, but within the heart—"

"Let go of the little girl in your hand, before you speak to me."

The older knight was startled and couldn't help stepping back.
