The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

As night falls, the city today is extremely cold. There is not even a stray cat on the empty streets. The old wooden signs of the corner hotels are rattling by the howling wind, adding to the desolation that no one cares about.

Squeak——

With the sound of heavy footsteps, the door of the hotel was opened, and in came Gale, a church knight in black armor.

The faint smell in the air made Gail frown. The armor on his body seemed to be coated with a layer of water, and there was a strange wave in the flickering candlelight.

There was no waiter around, and a thin layer of dust had accumulated on the table at the front desk. Gale pulled out the sword from his waist without hesitation.

In an instant, several circular magic arrays around the hall suddenly lit up, and colored magic bullets were shot at the knight from all directions.

Gale backhanded the sword into the ground, and the spherical shield spread out, blocking all the attacks for him, one wave, two waves, and three waves. After all the magic circles stopped attacking, the shield was still not broken.

Gail pulled out his sword again, followed the traces of magic power and rushed all the way to the innermost room on the second floor. After splitting the wooden door and the magic circle above it, he only saw the empty room and the opened window .

"Chase."

With an order, the streets at night seemed to come alive, and countless knights in black armor began to search outside the hotel like a tide.

Soon, someone discovered the traces of the witch.

"it's here!"

The two knights spotted the witch wearing a cloak and running away in the night, and without saying a word, they rode after her.

The unlucky witch was forced from the alley to the wide street. She was unable to run on four legs no matter how mobile she was, and was soon overtaken by two knights.

The knights who drew their swords did not use it to slash, but held it in both hands and began to chant.

There was a bit of surprise in the eyes of the witch under the cloak, because she saw a half-empty and half-real golden cross on the knight's sword.

"People from the church?"

She never expected that a knight from the church would come to her door. Until just now, she had thought that it was a robber like a bounty hunter.

As a witch, it is common to be hated or hated by others, and the fights between them are not life-and-death, but more of an exchange of interests.

But if it involves the church, it will be different. This is the public enemy of all of them, and there is absolutely no room for bargaining.

Ding.

The crisp crashing sound clearly reached the ears of the two knights in the chaotic chase. The gemstones that fell on the ground reflected the brilliance of the moon, and the sudden burst of power knocked them over with just one blow.

However, the witch who fought off the two knights did not reverse the situation, but fell into a worse situation.

Her magic is like a lamp that attracts moths. The knights are attracted by the light, and the hooves of the horses are rumbling in their ears like thunder.

A moth flying into the flame is suicidal, but when this group of knights attacked, the witch thought that her flames were not strong enough to burn them all together.

The cloth bag around her waist was thrown out by her, and gemstones of various colors scattered out of it. For a moment, the huge wave of magic power made the knights of the church turn their backs, until the earth-shattering sword fell.

Gail held the sword in his hand, and the blunt and obscure characters that came out of his mouth turned into tangible fragments, condensing into the shape of a cross in the air.

Not only Gail alone, more and more knights joined the chanting team one after another. The golden cross turned into a huge execution tool in the air, defeating the witch's attack with overwhelming force.

The cross that crashed to the ground dyed the night sky with sacred gold.

Gale rushed into the billowing smoke with his sword, but did not find the witch's figure. He only saw a lonely pool of blood left on the ground.

Gale knelt down and looked around the blood stains, confirming that there were no signs of movement.

"Transfer magic?"

The bloodstains left behind proved that their attack did not fail, so only magic like teleportation could explain why there were no other bloodstains that could be used as a guide.

After understanding the method used by the opponent, Gail immediately collected the blood on the ground, then called his companion who had practiced divination, and immediately tracked the opponent's movements. At the same time, he also gave new instructions to the other knights:

"The other party probably hasn't left too far. Seal the city immediately and search the surrounding area!"

"yes!"

Gail's idea is not wrong. The teleportation magic in this era is not perfect, it takes a long time to calculate and is complicated, and it is a waste of magic power. It is completely useless in the battle, and the temporary teleportation has a distance limit.

In fact, half of Gale's guess was correct. The witch who used teleportation did just escape to the outside of the town.

However, what Gale didn't guess was that the witch's magical power was very huge. After the battle, she used teleportation magic once, and she still had some power left.

"Cough cough cough!"

The witch covered her mouth and let out a painful sound. The black robe on her body had been burned by the holy light of the cross, and her long purple hair was blown up by the wind. There were many golden spots on her body, which were burnt by the holy light. Burn marks.

In exchange for her physical weakness, the witch gained almost double or more magical power than other people. This was her greatest reliance.

Feeling the remaining magic power in her body, the witch showed a determined expression, and the magic circle under her feet lit up again. After almost all the magic power was drained, a burst of light flashed, and the witch's figure disappeared without a trace under the moonlight. trace.

On the other side, Scarlet and his party, who had packed their bags, were about to leave the castle.

The young man checked the luggage that he brought to the carriage. This was something left by the Templars. It was much more practical than it looked. At first glance, the carriage, which did not look very big at first glance, could actually carry so much after using all the space. There is so much luggage, which is beyond the expectation of a teenager.

According to the pre-arrangement, the two sisters Remilia, Flandreau and Gloria stayed in the carriage, and the boy was responsible for driving. If something unexpected happened, the maid could play the role of the eldest lady again. .

Only on this quiet night can Remilia appear openly in this world. She stretched out her hand towards the moonlight, and slowly opened her immature palms, as if she could feel a different kind of feeling from the coldness. gentle.

To be allowed to exist is the greatest tenderness.

"We should go, Remilia," said the boy behind her.

"Yes." Nodding slightly, Remilia no longer missed the moonlight, turned around and boarded the carriage under the service of Gloria.

Finally, he looked back at Scarlet's castle. Just as the young man's whip was about to fall, a sudden burst of light flashed, and the six-pointed star magic circle imprisoned by the ring suddenly appeared in front of the carriage.
