Blood tax

Chapter 217 Three-on-Three Regiment Battle (Valentine's Day Special)

Rush up and hold down the maneuvering space to win!Griffith thought so.

However, not all rangers are Galadia...

Anna Sui's movements were extremely fast, flowing and flickering like a phantom, and launched an attack towards Griffith as soon as she appeared.Facing the oncoming heavy-armored quasi-knight, she didn't retreat, but ran and spun around him.

Griffith rushed halfway and suddenly realized something was wrong.The slender figure of the elf ranger is close at hand but far away.On the opposite side was a fast-firing soft bow, and the continuous arrows were like summer rain, making a tooth-itching trill like tearing linen.

Anna Sui's head-on assault on Griffith first jumped onto the rock, sprinted along the edge in an incredible route, and then jumped down at the end of the low cliff, always keeping a distance of less than 20 meters from Griffith , but it is as untouchable as air.Her fire rate is extremely fast and extremely accurate.

Griffith is like being wrapped in an untouchable whirlwind, unable to catch up with the ranger who is jumping up and down.In an instant he was shot like a porcupine, his breastplate full of feathered arrows, and even pierced through his mail.He was so regretful that his intestines were green. He thought he could quickly approach the enemy for melee combat, but he didn't expect that the short distance was as far away as the sky, and he was hit by the opponent stuck in the uphill and downhill terrain.

He could still rely on the heavy armor, but a sharp arrow suddenly pierced through the greaves and hit his knee... Griffith fell to his knees with a plop.

Sonia poked her head out from behind the barrier to support him, but a lightning snipe drove her back.

"Huh~heh~ Finally, it looks big and hard, quite scary, but actually, huh," Anna Sui said while shaking her long silver-white hair, panting, "It's actually not that good!~"

Before the silver-haired and dark-skinned elf could finish sighing, a stream of light had already bloomed from the darkness and shot towards her.Anna Sui moved quickly, but a bloody gash was still cut on her arm.

Galadia chased from behind and joined the fight.She glanced at Griffith, who was kneeling on the ground, and shouted angrily to the fallen ranger:
"Surrender, Anna Sui, we are three against one!"

As she shouted, she unceremoniously fired arrows in bursts, and there was no room for ordinary people to surrender.The former Purifier deftly dodges the deadly hail of arrows, dodging around a nearby corner.

"How's the injury?" Galadia suppressed the Purifier and leaned towards Griffith.

The quasi-knight waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.He pulled out the arrowhead on his knee, half-kneeled on the ground, and drank the healing potion to recover.

At this moment, Anna Sui, who had fallen into a desperate situation, said faintly in the darkness:

"I'm really happy to finally have enough people. Galadia, in one-on-one battles you rely on equipment to bully people, but bringing other people is not the case.

"The new kid looks so interesting, big sister, come and play with you!"

Griffith immediately became vigilant, and after covering Sonia and hiding in a corner where she could hide, Galadia subconsciously accelerated to occupy a commanding height, and then looked at Griffith and Sonia with a more complicated expression .

"Come on, Miss Anna Sui." Enduring the pain in his knee, Griffith raised his shield and moved towards her hidden position, "If you don't come, I will."

Sonia is also carefully observing the situation in the hiding place, ready to join the battle at any time.

As soon as the words fell, a gleaming mirror suddenly flew out of the hidden position of the fallen ranger.The moment it appeared, Galadia immediately shot an arrow.

The sharp arrow hit accurately, but was bounced off by the mirror.Strange psychic energy fluctuations and buzzing sounds then spread.

Sonia subconsciously cast her gaze towards the mirror.A black spider bigger than a bison suddenly appeared in front of her, with black bristles growing on its eight legs and giant pincers.It turned its compound eyes and approached the girl.

"what--!!!"

Sonia, who has always been very courageous, screamed in horror at the sudden appearance of the monster.She hastily drew out her wand to attack, but a mass of spider silk sprayed her body, immobilizing her body.

Galadia wants to aid her.However, a gap was torn in the air not far from her.A stalwart figure with white hair and white robe stepped out of the light.

The mighty Supreme Mage His Excellency Salorian stepped out of the torn void and was watching her with contempt.

"False and shallow creature, empty skin," the Supreme Mage scolded, "The only meaning of your existence is a tool for reproduction, wake me up, stupid girl!"

His Excellency Salorian approached step by step:

"Don't look at others secretly, look at yourself!

"Know yourself, explore your origin, and pursue the meaning of your existence.

"Do you want to be a vase for the rest of your life? Solve this arcane model quickly."

A frightened expression appeared on Galadia's face instantly.Realizing that it was an illusion, she turned around and was about to attack the fallen elves.The moment she was about to make a move, the supreme mage Salorian waved his wand, and a holding spell easily controlled her and fixed her in place.

"Before you solve this arcane model, you are not allowed to eat, and you can't go anywhere. Hurry up and do it."

"Oh, it turned out to be Salorian. I was shocked. His homework is just finding fault~" The fallen elf poked his head to look at the situation outside, then turned to Griffith and said, "My sealed item, the observer "Mirror" captures more observers, the more powerful it is. I'm afraid of spiders and teachers, so simple and cute."

It turned out that this was a sealed item.

Griffith vaguely understood the nature of the mirror.It is a mirror on which the subconscious mind or memory can be projected.The projected existence did not attack Galadia and Sonia, but made them fall into an irresistible control.

What's worse, he subconsciously glanced at the mirror just now.

"Then, little boy, let my sister see your terrors! With their foreshadowing, you will surely see great things."

There is no sign, no pre-chanting and spiritual energy fluctuations.Griffith was suddenly wrapped in a strange feeling, as if a precious memory deep in his soul had been dug out.

"Griffith."

The voice of a fifth person appeared in the cave.

Her voice is so familiar, yet so far away, like a dream...

Griffith suddenly felt an extremely familiar and unforgettable breath.

The illusory and beautiful figure of a girl is slowly appearing in front of him, with soft blond hair draped over her shoulders, and her blue eyes looking up at him.

"Guffy, are you okay? The assembly number is calling us!"

"What do you say you saw? Explain clearly."

"Ah, Erza is here, I'll pack up my equipment first, see you later."

Familiar and unfamiliar words seem to be imprinted in the bottom of my heart, but they seem unreal.

Anna Sui tilted her head: "Ouch, what did we see? The Observer's Mirror will embody your unforgettable fear in the world.

"Do you know? My ability can be used on the three of you. The girls see fear, but you, I don't understand, what kind of fear is this?
"But, it's also your strong intention to bring her back... Ah, what's going on?"

The illusory shadow that appeared in front of Griffith was suddenly enveloped by an indescribable aura.At first it was just weird and distant, but in a blink of an eye it was full of twisted, disintegrated, and shattered momentum.A vague and terrifying shadow seemed to appear in the observer's mirror, which was rippling with strange brilliance, trying to get out from there.

"Ah, this! What's going on?" Anna Sui exclaimed.Her sealed item was suddenly pulled by an irresistible force, and it exploded with a "bang".The phantoms of the demonized giant spider and Lord Salorian disappeared instantly.The familiar shadow also became thin and transparent.She shook her head, resisting the fate of disappearing, but it was still inevitable to disappear.

There was silence in the dark crypt.

Anna Sui's face was filled with horror, she quietly groped towards the passage beside her, trying to find a chance to escape.

Violent blood suddenly strangled her throat like a noose.The fallen elf trembled instantly.The majestic quasi-knight had already approached her.

"On that day, I witnessed your death with my own eyes.

"Krista,
"I will never forget this day, it is not an ambiguous memory that can be virtualized."

His words were so loud that everyone present was awed by his firm will.

"Tremble, idiot!" Griffith raised his finger, and a fear spell hit Anna Sui, causing a deafening scream.

Griffith jumped over his companion, grabbed Anna Sui's neck and pinned her to the ground.

"Griffith, we need interrogation and intelligence!" Sonia shouted hastily.She had a premonition that if she didn't stop it now, the furious quasi-knight would tear the fallen elf to pieces.

"That's right, intelligence! Preferential treatment for prisoners!" Anna Sui, who returned from the fear and confusion, struggled desperately, shouting her own value, and then added, "I am a woman!"

"Bah!"

Griffith punched her in the left cheek.The thrilling reverberation of the wind of the fist scared Galadia and Sonia, who had just escaped from the bondage, to take a step back in fright.

Anna Sui's complicated and delicate earrings and headband flew out with a few teeth between them.Half of her beautiful face was distorted, with blood flowing from the corners of her eyes and mouth.

"You despicable bug!" Anna Sui, who was about to fall apart from the punch, yelled with blood in her mouth.

She just yelled half a sentence.Griffith picked up her head and punched her in the face.

Anna Sui only felt that the meteorite-like fist broke through the atmosphere and clouds and hit her.The bridge of the nose, the corners of the eyes and the front teeth were smashed into pieces, crackling like a festival.Her beautiful face hit the ground with a bang, spouting saliva.

Galadia covered her eyes, this punch made her heartbroken even watching it.

"Excuse me, please forgive me..."

The followers of the evil god have been beaten to death.The slender legs were crushed under him, and he didn't even have the strength to kick and beat, limp on the ground like a dead fish.

"Griffith, stop!"

Seeing that the prisoner was about to be beaten to death with two punches, Sonia hurried up to stop him.

Before she could arrive, Griffith picked up the half-dead fallen elf and punched it to the right cheek.

"Pong!"

Anna Sui was thrown to the ground like a rock.Red, green, green and white liquids splashed out like dye houses.Already dizzy, she twitched, her eyes rolled white, and saliva and blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.

In the dark cave, the atmosphere was quiet and eerie for a while.

Sonia gave Galadia a wink.Miss Elf immediately responded to her with lively eyes.The two were communicating silently and tacitly——

"Just ask!"

"Why don't you ask!"

Sonia sighed in her heart, turning to complain.

Griffith's situation is obviously wrong, he is already abusing prisoners!You can't do that as a knight.We should hurry up and ask what happened, and find out what information Anna Sui has for us.Moreover, what happened to the phantom of the girl that appeared just now, Galadia, as his good friend, shouldn't you care about it?

Well, let me ask, I have a bounden duty to my knight!Hmph, at the critical moment, we need to show the rigorous and considerate family style of the Lamor family.Sonia took a deep breath, raised her head, and looked at her Shutoral seriously.

Griffith got up from the stiff dark elf, patted the dust, turned around and asked Sonia behind him: "Why, what's the matter?"

"No, Griffith is awesome! We finally defeated this fallen elf, and her strange sealed item has no effect!" Sonia said with a brisk smile and a sweet smile.She and her father are not so cute when they act like a baby.

Unexpectedly, Sonia, you are like this... Galadia covered her face.It's not convenient for me to ask some things, shouldn't you care about them?Is that girl called Christa just now? You just need to start, and I can learn more about Griffith's past.

Hmph, as expected, this kind of thing can only depend on me who is smart and clever.To carefully ask what is going on!

Galadia clenched her fists, mobilizing her emotions and courage.

"Galadea, is there another question?" Griffith turned to her and asked.

"No!" Miss Elf had a bright smile on her lips, and her eyes were full of joy and relief from being freed from danger and loneliness.The dark underground ruins are all illuminated by this bright face.

She said to Griffith in the most tender and affectionate tone:

"It's great that we can join together!"

　Please take a day off tomorrow, eh!
