Blood tax

Chapter 431 is like an examinee who scribbled nonsense before closing the paper until the bell rang for the exam paper

"Follow me!" Griffith yelled, setting off first.

This is the ruins of the Senate of the lost city-state. It is the area with the most concentrated spiritual energy signals and the most gorgeous architectural appearance in the entire ruins.The end of the Chosen One's Sacrifice is just around the corner, and a miracle beyond the cognition of humans, elves, and even all intelligent creatures may be ahead!

Griffith was the vanguard, followed by Galadia. Erza staggered two positions to form a sharp formation with them, climbed up the magnificent steps built of white stone, passed through the majestic pillars, passed through the The halls where celebrities and dignitaries come and go, advance among the grotesque light and shadow refracted by the well-preserved floor-to-ceiling windows.

The moment they stepped into the gate, the sea of ​​clouds rolled, the wind howled under the towering sky, and the sound of the wind passing through the mountain peaks and building gaps was distorted into a flute with a strange rhythm.The hall of the Senate looked like a dormant beast panting.

The footsteps of Miss Elf and Huntress were behind her, and Griffith could feel their breath.However, from the moment he set foot here, Griffith heard faint calls.This voice is not an unrecognizable raving, it is simple and clear, and goes straight to the bottom of my heart:

"Your wish, say your wish.

"The almighty wish-wisher shall come true.

"Shh, whisper...

"Let the wishing implement guess."

The voice seemed close to Griffith's ears.

"Be careful, there is a sealed item, live!" Griffith shouted at the arrow position, and at the same time dispersed his blood, trying to expel the danger with scorching power.

"Stop!" Erza suddenly grabbed him from behind and dragged him back.

There was just a flat and gorgeous floor under his feet, but before he knew it, a bottomless cliff appeared.This astonishing dark fissure is hundreds of meters wide, deep and precipitous, it seems to go straight to the center of the earth that only appears in legends. Swallow the inside whole.On the other side of the cliff, there are scattered buildings. The places that should have been the meeting hall, library, and garden have all disappeared, leaving only a huge gap and an open space where you can look up at the surging mist.

"There is a powerful force tearing this place north-south, and I can still feel the residual spiritual energy." Erza knelt down on one knee on the edge of the cliff, picked up a small piece of gravel and sniffed it.Then she stood up and pointed south.

Something would tear the space here, and beyond the collapsed and broken roof, Griffith once again saw the eerie and dark towering mountain.It stands there, a little closer than it was when I looked at it yesterday evening, but some kind of indescribable cloud surrounds the jagged peaks and rocks like a living evil and evil curse.

It is clearly surrounded by continuous snow-capped mountains, but there is no snow on the top. The bald peaks seem to be towers leading to the endless night shadows, calling for the daring to step into danger.

At this moment, the strong wind suddenly became more and more violent.The air of death and withering suddenly surged across the ruins of the city-state of Anok.

The dark sky began to turn white, the fog receded even more, and the light from an unknown source clearly presented the continuous jagged boulders between the mountains in the south. Tiredness and anxiety dazzled.

This is definitely not the moonlight and starlight at night, because at this moment, Griffith clearly saw that the cliff in front of him was also illuminated.

An unexplainable scene appeared——

The light from an unknown source makes the sky brighter and discernible as before the dawn, but there is no sense of joy and warmth that the sunrise gives people, only the inexplicable paleness and silence.

This light source illuminates the sinister cliffs at the foot from a strange angle, revealing their jaw-dropping truth like spiers and corners in a labyrinth.

Griffith, Galadia, and Erza took a step back almost simultaneously.Even though they were powerful and well-informed, at the same time they couldn't resist the deep fear of this mysterious scene from the depths of their hearts.

This is a majestic lost city built of dark boulders that sleeps underground.The [-]-meter cliff can only reveal a corner of its majestic figure, which is enough to make people horrified and sighed.

Geometric structures such as cylinders, cones, and pentagons are stacked in groups and twisted upside down in a way that is impossible to apply to architecture. The structures of dark green boulders, towering spiers covered with chaotic carvings, and edges and corners also present irregular shapes. The shape and angle are unpredictable and frenzied. At first glance, it is still a curved surface, and then it becomes an acute angle.

Vascular bridges connect the buildings to one another, extending into the darkness at the end of the field of vision.Every corner seems to lurk ferocious malice and indescribable unknowns.

Their outlines were so grotesque and exaggerated, so unbelievable that everyone present was cast with a lingering shadow and felt extremely depressed.

This is clearly a civilization relic similar to the city under the Turan Swamp, but even weirder and more chaotic!
This ancient lost city shrouded in darkness can never be built by the city-state of Anok. The lost city-state witnessed along the way did have a prosperous history, but it cannot be compared with the mystery of the underground, and the history of thousands of years has never been recorded. This lost city.

Witnessing such a relic, thinking that it used to be quietly hidden deep underground, and witnessing humans building cities, farming and breeding on the surface, makes people feel extremely small and shuddering, and their reason will evaporate uncontrollably in fear, and their minds will also be confused. stand up.

what did we see...

What lies beneath our feet...

The answers to all these may be answered as long as you enter the Lost City below the cliff.

The three of Griffith almost subconsciously walked down the gentle slope, collapse and ruins on the edge of the cliff, wanting to have a clearer look at the abyss, until a figure appeared and stopped them.

"Go back, mortal," Aaron said condescendingly as he slowly landed on a gentle downward slope of gravel, "one step forward will be cursed and fatal."

He has a calm demeanor, with a slight sarcasm in his air, and he seems to be expounding the truth that is just and right. Among the chosen ones who have arrived here, he is the only one who has the right to touch the real mystery.

But even so, the hearts of Griffith and others are still ready to move.If they had any doubts and calmness about the Chosen One's Sacrifice, it has disappeared at this moment.Such a majestic underground relic is clearly an ancient mystery beyond human cognition. If one can reveal the truth, what an amazing reward will be obtained.

This is clearly a more powerful and mysterious civilization than Bayeran and Canaan. It has dug up the surface of the earth and built a city with technology and power that humans have not yet understood. Now it is carrying the miracle of the sacrifice of the chosen one!

If the veil of mystery can be lifted, what can't solve the crisis of magic energy in Canaan, the turmoil in Baiyelan, the mysteries of life and starry sky?In the face of such power and mystery, how insignificant is the disturbance of reality...

Aaron looked down at them, and didn't find the slightest sign of retreat on the faces of the three of them.With a little bit of smile and pity he:

"Since you are anxious to pursue the end of the rest of your life in fear and remorse, let me..."

Before the words were finished, a ray of thunder roared out.

Erza threw the holy spear in her hand, and stabbed Aaron with the deafening humming and earth-shattering arc flashes.

However, the Son of Prophecy paid no heed to this powerful blow.When the holy gun was shot, three bright magic balls lit up beside Aaron.They whirled rapidly, showing the blue of crystal clear ice and the bright silver of thunder and lightning.

"The phantom is invisible!"

Aaron is exempt from singing and becomes invisible for an instant.There was only a faint, almost invisible wave-like phantom flashing through the air, avoiding the throwing gun.However, this kind of dodge couldn't escape the pursuit of the Light and Shadow Front, and Erza was already approaching like lightning, and swung the round shield in her hand.

Aaron appeared, and the orb beside him had a core of lava that was transforming into red.A new energy came to his service.

"Shock!"

He couldn't follow what he said, and the huge arc impact almost filled his field of vision, sweeping towards Erza's head and face.Griffith and Galadia, who were gathered on the gentle slope of the cliff, could not avoid it. They were all hit by the shock wave and flew backwards.

The moment she was repelled, Galadia had already moved.Riding on the wind, she grabbed the repelled Erza and flew together, curling towards Aaron's left hand.

Griffith also stabilized himself and made a detour from the other side, forming a left and right flank.Their siege closed in an instant, and the Son of Prophecy seemed to have fallen into a trap with nowhere to escape.

"Disappear in the hurricane! Accept the whipping of the arc!" Aaron waved his hand, and a torrential storm rolled up in the air, rolling up the approaching Ranger and Huntress and throwing them into the sky.What he launched was even a combo of hurricanes and electric arcs. The blade-like gusts even carried a flickering electric charge net, and the discharge particles continued to burst and explode, breaking into pieces with the shields of the two of them.

Aaron rushed to Griffith almost at the same time, passed by under the rapidity of magic blessing, and cast the spell.He was slightly puzzled, how could such a delicate lady witch, Laura de Lockhavert, who was wearing a long robe and adorned with a heart-shaped headband, rush forward for melee combat.

"Obviously I can get the favor of magic, but I have to tear it like a monkey." Aaron held his right hand and pressed down, "Freeze under my power, Frozen Nova!"

Between lightning and flint, an extremely cold icy air hit Griffith, freezing his hands and feet, holding him between the icy air, and trapping him in a terrifying extremely cold prison.

Won!

Aaron had the chance to win. He chanted consecutive high-speed divine words to save immunity, and used sealed items and special ability immunity to cool down. He completed the continuous casting of spells that wizards could not imagine in their entire lives, with one to three!Galadia and Erza were driven back by the storm, weakened by the arc, and Laura was already trapped in the ice.

"Even if the three selected people who have persisted here work together, they are not my opponent! Hahaha, yes, high-speed oracle, ignoring cooling, mastery of all attribute spells! My layout, my preparation, and my magic are foolproof !"

Aaron's heart was jubilant, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. The exhaustion of mental energy was about to destroy his body, but the joy and confidence of winning were supporting him:
"Next, as long as I take away their emblems, the miracle will be mine. With the miracle, I will gain the powerful power that even that person covets. At that time, I will be the perfect existence in the world of King's Landing!

"The first step is to kill this Laura first! Then use the psionic power in her emblem to replenish it!"

Aaron squeezed his magic power, so he was about to turn to Laura, and cast a decisive blow!
Alas, this, what's going on, my body is so dull.

No, it's not dull, it's inability to move!The body can't move at all!

Aaron was horrified to find that his legs had been frozen firmly by the ice at some point, making it impossible to move an inch.

This is the power of Frozen Nova.

"Who! How dare you use my spells against me!"

He roared and asked, the icy cage just a short distance away was like an iceberg cracking and collapsing under the bright sun, and the scorching breath was steaming up, which made people daunting.

The witch has escaped.The long blond hair has turned into straight black hair, and the slim figure is stretching out with the astonishing oppressive aura.

Amidst the billowing air waves, stood a majestic knight with an ape-armed waist.His shoulders are folded, his face is like a powder, with a jade nose and purple lips, sword eyebrows and eyes like stars, an emerald heart headband on his forehead, and ice blue and bright silver swords on his waist, radiating brilliance.

He regarded the ice as nothing, stood sideways, and the killing intent of the red cloud swept over.

Aaron's blond-haired red eyes shook, and his pale and delicate lips trembled slightly, followed by a cold chill.

Startled and stagnant at first.Then, without shouting, provoking, or prodding, the two walked towards each other at the same time.First he walked forward, then turned into a gallop and rushed forward.

"Hey, didn't you choose to face me instead of running away?" Griffith spread his arms, convicting his left and right sides, as if he was about to hug an old friend, "Before the opening of this Chosen Sacrifice, your The girl was more or less aware of it on the Feiye, and she must have reminded you of my secrets in a panic like a test taker who rang when the exam hand-in bell rang and found out that there were some questions that had not been written before closing the paper!"

"Griffith, I gave you a chance to follow me. Since you came to your door sincerely, I will help you with mercy," said Aaron's self-confidence and arrogance. Lava, The ice and arc balls are roaring, "For the harmony and order of the world, for the balance between light and darkness, I, Aaron Lundilus,
"Today, here, blow you up!"

The red blood dragon dances wildly, and the blue magic energy rises like the rising sun.The knight of war and the son of prophecy activated all their strengths and charged at each other with all their might:

"Griffith! (Aaron!)"
