Chapter 453 Ai Xue (2)
Five hundred people were drawn from the middle and senior officers of the Gemini Kingdom, and after a little training, Danica decided to set off.
Before leaving, Ai Xue found Danica and expressed her hope to join this operation. According to Ai Xue, she is a mid-level professional after all, and she is somewhat of a combat power.
Ai Xue's words are half right and wrong. She is indeed a mid-level warlock, but as for combat power, let's put it this way, she has never learned any evil magic used for combat, and her actual combat ability is basically zero.
Danica looked at Ai Xue with her usual cold eyes, looking at the maid who had been following her from the beginning, and said in a plain tone: "Okay, follow me."
Ai Xue sighed suffocated and lowered her head and said, "Yes, master."
Ai Xue knew that her request was strange and that this statement was untenable. She had never been directly involved in anything about war. She also knew that the master she served was suspicious and cold-blooded. As long as she thought about it, she could come up with a terrible inference. But Ai Xue didn't dare to think too much. When she thought that Danica might have already seen her deception, Ai Xue would fall into a huge fear that could destroy herself. She deceived herself into burying this idea deep in her heart, and took one step at a time. Ai Xue no longer had any hope for the future.
Danica glanced at Ai Xue with a dull look, turned over to Miao Kema, and walked in the middle of the team. Ai Xue recovered at this time, and got on the horse, slightly staggered the horse and followed Danica.
At the front was Catherine, who led more than a hundred people to open the way in front. Next to her was a handsome man, Sandys. He also followed this action, which was said to be due to the orders of Her Majesty the Queen.
Sandys has been on the Eastern Front of the Anti-Demon Battle for a long time, but he did not deal with the Gemini Queen frequently, and they met only a handful of times. Sandys also felt that Danica was not welcome to her arrival, and she clearly showed this unwelcome.
What is interesting is that many officers of the Gemini Kingdom did not understand this. In their opinion, it was natural that the Gemini Queen was arrogant and not meeting someone like Sandys who came here inexplicably. When he just learned that they had such a mentality, Sandys could only smile bitterly. Only in the Gemini Kingdom can the royal power have such high majesty, which is a powerful deterrent that cannot be questioned. In any place in the Katic continent, as the Lord of Music and the representative of a saint-level power, he should receive enough respect and courtesy.
Although it feels that this extreme centralization has been a bit distorted, Sandys does not intend to challenge the political rules here, especially when her core interests are not threatened. After all, no matter how strange the Gemini Kingdom is, she is powerful after all, and it is already a powerful force at the mainland level. It is not a wise choice to rashly provoke such a powerful force.
So this time, when Danica sent Emily to tell herself that Her Majesty the Queen hoped that he could participate in this operation, Sandys did not hesitate too much and agreed directly. He is already a seventh-level awakened person. No matter what the situation is, he can still run away, right?
The operation of this elite team composed of middle and senior officers from the Gemini Kingdom was quite smooth. According to the previous plan, they circled a large circle and entered the location of the space node from the southeast. According to the information, there were the least demon guards in this direction.
It took five days before they arrived at the predetermined location. This place has completely become a paradise for demons. The dark red land with a faint green evil aura was filled with the aura of green evil; there were barbs and hideous shrubs; when they ran quickly, they could only see a afterimage, a small animal that was also quickly adapting to this cruel environment; and the dim and twisted sky all mean that this land already belonged to the demon.
For the past five days, Ai Xue has been in a daze. In a trance, she felt that everything in front of her was so unreal and absurd. She seemed to live in an illusory dream, or she might be an illusory dream. Now, Ai Xue wants to expose this dream personally, and whether she is waiting for her to wake up or die out, Ai Xue herself doesn't know.
According to the plan, they would rest here for a long time, adjust their state, and launch a charge directly in the afternoon to break through the devil's defense as fast as possible.
During lunch, Catherine found Ai Xue and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with you recently? Have you encountered any trouble?" Ai Xue's condition during this period was so strange. She was like a walking corpse, and it was difficult not to attract attention.
"No, nothing." Ai Xue shook her mind and said in a panic.
Is this a good thing? Catherine muttered in her heart, but in their position, she will always be exposed to many confidential matters, and Catherine doesn't ask much.
After dinner, I took a simple rest for a while, and the time for the attack was coming as the sun gradually set.
Although the Abyss Demon also needs rest, their working and rest habits are very different from those of ordinary people in the Katic continent, so Catherine did not intend to attack any night. If she really wanted to fight with the demons in a dark environment, they would probably suffer. Since that's the case, then take advantage of the sunshine in the last period of the day to launch a charge!
"Character!" With a command from Catherine, several magicians borrowed from Philees removed the magic to cover the breath. Five hundred middle and high-level professionals activated their fast horses and rushed towards the demon legion two kilometers away.
Only then did the demons notice that an enemy was attacking from behind, but it seemed that there were not many people and there was no such tube that could fire balls, so they were not afraid.
The demon had just organized a relatively loose formation, and the elite team with Catherine as the arrow rushed in front of him. Catherine waved the magic sword that ignited the flames and slashed at a demon fiercely...
The battle was short and fierce, and everyone was familiar with the combat plan. The key to this mission was whether it could pierce the demon's defense line and detonate the so-called space node before reinforcements from other directions of the Demon Legion arrived.
The lethality of five hundred professionals who tried their best was very huge. Half an hour later, Danica saw the space node. The defense line built by thousands of demons could not stop the impact of these professionals.
"This is...the space node?" Ai Xue said in surprise.
In the air above a farmland not far away, there is a black light ball that is constantly twisting and rotating, which is the space node. As for why it is black, it is the consequence of the space being torn apart.
Danica smiled and said, "Yes, this is the space node, it's very beautiful, isn't it?"
Ai Xue was stunned for a moment, nodded, and said, "It's very beautiful." This is a special beauty belonging to natural creation, a dangerous beauty.
But people who can appreciate this beauty often have to give up a lot... Danica wants to talk, but stops it. It's time to say this, what's the use of saying this?
Danica took out a small scroll, which was only about ten centimeters wide, and was decorated with a red gem, emitting a faint magical fluctuation.
Instead of opening the scroll immediately, she said to Catherine: "Appoint people to retreat. There is a certain chance that an explosion will occur when the space node is destroyed."
Catherine immediately said, "Yes, Your Majesty." Catherine didn't have to worry about Danica's danger. In fact, in the entire Gemini Kingdom, Danica, the queen who rarely takes action, is the highest-ranking person. An eighth-level professional, who is already one of the most powerful people in the Katic continent.
Catherine immediately organized an army and retreated on the same path. At the place where she was just resting, there were several magicians of the elves. If they wanted to go back safely, they still needed these magicians to cover up their breath.
After Catherine left, Danica said to Ai Xue who was still standing beside her: "Aren't you leaving?"
Ai Xue shook her head, barely showed a smile, and said, "I won't leave, where is the master?"
Danica smiled at the corner of her mouth, and she said nothing, gently brushing the red gem on the scroll with her hand.
The gem shattered, the scroll unfolded out of thin air, and a mysterious and complex magic array depicted on it began to rotate slowly, and at the same time, it emitted powerful magic waves.
Under the influence of magic fluctuations, the space node began to become unstable. It twisted wildly. The overflowing space power made Ai Xue, who was watching from the side, frightened, afraid that if a small piece of space fragment would fall on him by accident, it would be miserable.
The magic circle on the magic scroll was turning faster and faster, and the magic waves emitted became stronger and stronger. The space node, which was originally regular, has now been torn into a cloud shape. Just when the fluctuations emitted by the two reached its peak, everything was over in the blink of an eye. The magic scroll fell to the ground, and the magic circle carved on it had been broken, and as for the space node, it completely disappeared.
"No explosion happened?" Ai Xue said with some fear.
Danica smiled and said, "It's just that an explosion may occur, but it's not necessarily happening." After pausing, she said again: "Besides, this artificially-made space node generally does not have that much energy."
This space node was created manually? Ai Xue shouted in her heart, and the master already knew it!
Danica reached out and the magic scroll that fell to the ground rewinds and flew into her hands.
After putting the scroll away, Danica said, "Okay, let's go too."
"Ah...yes, yes." Now Ai Xue has become even more distraught.
As a result, Danica and Aishi walked not far away and saw that the team that was supposed to withdraw was back again.
"What's wrong?" Danica asked.
Without waiting for Catherine's answer, Danica saw the answer. In the distance, a huge army of undead slowly appeared.
