The defeated saint is also on the way to tame the evil god today

　Everyone in the academic city is a very important partner.

　This is the only thought in the girl's mind. It is not mixed with the sophistication of a mature person, but only a childish and pure idea.

　The purpose of joining the Extraordinary Department was to protect everyone, especially Bianca.

　But if she were to become like those bad guys who invaded the Citadel, Arya hoped someone could stop her.

　In her eyes, Miss Saint is the most reliable partner, and she can do anything.

　""

　Looking at the light flashing in Alia's eyes, Xingmo patted her shoulder again.

　"Rest a little longer and get ready," she stood up, "we'll leave tomorrow."

　"call----"

　The flying carriage roared out of the academy and flew towards the iceberg in Academi.

　The interior of this carriage was almost the size of half a train car. The outside was pulled by seven or eight flying horses, and starlight lingered under the wheels.

　Inside the carriage, Xing Mo was standing in front of a blackboard, his eyes scanning the passengers sitting on the chairs one by one.

　The Supernatural Department's first section dispatched three people: Angelica, Albus, and the protagonist, Alya. At this moment, Angelica was rubbing Alya's head frantically, while Alya lay in her arms with a depressed look.

　"Why are you unhappy? Are you afraid that your sister will throw you to the enemy to feast on? Or are you afraid that Bianca will be jealous?"

　"elder sister..."

　"Don't bully her." Albus said expressionlessly as he was polishing his silver long knife.

　"Hey~ I saw that little Alia was unhappy, so I wanted to liven up the atmosphere. As her brother, why don't you comfort her?"

　"Aliya is very strong and doesn't need any comfort," Albus said firmly.

　Looking at the three people fighting and playing, Xingmo sighed and turned his gaze to the elves beside him.

　Freya and Yuwen both participated in this operation. Xingmo had originally not planned to bring them along. After all, the light elves were guests of the Citadel, and it would be inappropriate for them to risk their lives just for the Citadel. However, Freya insisted that this was a matter between elves. She was out to deal with Crimson Doom, so she naturally had to be there in person.

　"How long will it take to get to the bank?" Noticing Xingmo's gaze, Freya smiled at her foolishly.

　"Your Highness, we are not going to rob a bank..." Yuwen pulled her sleeve.

　"Oh..."

　Sitting at the very edge was Lucius Phillips. When the Skeleton Gate caused the iceberg to rise, he had been among the first to arrive on the scene. His experience with the iceberg's properties made him well-suited to lead this operation.

　As for Aurora, she did not go to the scene in person because the spiritual energy fluctuations in the sea were getting stronger and stronger. The little girl said that she would be responsible for monitoring the movements of the Pale Angel and would only provide remote resources this time.

　But Xingmo knew that she was probably just trying to slack off - the bookshelves at home were already piled high with the lesbian novels she bought from Messina, and the little one was buried in them almost the entire day.

　However, for something of this magnitude, it was indeed an overreaction to have Aurora come out.

　Since the Children of Time were able to use time to infiltrate seamlessly, leaving Aurora at the Citadel to guard the house was actually the best arrangement to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation.

　"Cough cough."

　Xingmo cleared her throat, and everyone fell silent, their eyes focused on her.

　"We are about to arrive at the landing area," Xing Mo knocked on the blackboard, "Everyone, get ready."

　"Chief! Why is there nothing written on the blackboard?" Angelica raised her hand.

　“Because there’s no need to write, but having a blackboard would make it more atmospheric.”

　Xingmo's humor made everyone laugh, and the atmosphere suddenly became lighter.

　A lot looser.

　Seeing the atmosphere relaxing, Xing Mo tapped the blackboard again and said solemnly:

　"We're about to reach a river valley suspected of being controlled by the Children of Time. Most of the residents here were driven away when the icebergs rose, but today there are reports that the population has suddenly increased again, and distant horn sounds can be heard from the valley."

　"Like the Horn of the Sounding Dragon," Albus said calmly, "They used that horn to control some people and bound them to the Riverdale."

　"Indeed, this is most likely a trap set by the Children of Time to lure us in to investigate," Xingmo nodded. "It's practically an open conspiracy. As long as the forces of the Extraordinary Ministry are drawn out, the defenses within the Citadel will be weakened, and they can then send people into the Citadel to kidnap Arya."

　"But they were doomed to fail, because Alia followed us out, and our goal was to take the initiative and attack."

　"Is everything okay at the Citadel?" Angelica said worriedly.

　"I asked Aurora and Vivian to keep an eye on it," Xingmo said, tapping the back of his hand and muttering to himself, "Did you hear me? Keep an eye on it, okay?"

　"Okay okay."

　Aurora's answer was perfunctory.

　Xing Mo shrugged helplessly, then tapped the blank blackboard with her wand:

　"There's no point in hiding in this mission. We'll directly airdrop into the river valley and launch a strong assault."

　"Since the Sound Dragon Horn requires a fifteen-minute blast, we will enter the area after the first blast and locate the horn within fifteen minutes, sealing it in place. Specific responsibilities have been assigned previously. Once we land, we will execute according to the plan, and be flexible if any changes arise."

　"Any other questions?" Xingmo looked around.

　"The Children of Time's fighting style seems to transcend time," Albus said calmly. "If the number of targets is greater than one, how should we respond?"

　"Just focus on protecting yourself," Xingmo nodded. "Your first priority is to protect yourself and hold them off. The instructor and I will take care of the rest."

　She nodded to Lucius, and Lucius took out the dark, beating gear heart, his lake blue eyes cold.

　At this time, the Pegasus let out a crisp cry, indicating that it had reached its destination.

　"Everyone, get ready to go."

　Xing Mo pushed open the door of the carriage, winked at everyone in the carriage, and then jumped out -

　"call--"

　"Boom——"

　As she fell into the air, her body was instantly covered by feathers of blazing fire, and then she broke through the sound barrier and flew rapidly towards the ground.

　Behind her, one figure after another jumped down, their bodies cutting through the sky.

　In mid-air, Arya held a dagger in one hand and a ball of darkness in the other, manipulating the gravity of the darkness to slow down her speed.

　She looked down at the valley below, her eyes determined.

Chapter 477: The Tip of the Iceberg (Part 2) -4k- (Two Updates in One)

　The landing process went smoothly. Since the distance was far enough, Xingmo didn't think the Children of Time would be able to discover their traces.

　It was a rare day that there was no heavy rain. The sun was shining brightly in the valley, and the emerald green grass swayed amid the birdsong, caressing the hem of the girl's skirt.

　Xingmo was squatting beside a stream, her slender fingers playing with the water.

　She felt the stream flowing through her fingertips, felt the water strings telling the memories of the water droplets.

　"A lot of people crossed the upper reaches of this stream," Xingmo stood up and shook the water off his hands, "just last night."

　"It's amazing... You can find clues this way..." Angelica watched carefully from the side, exclaiming in amazement from time to time.

　Albus's eyes faded away, and he stopped talking to the spirit and said:

　"Most of them are from nearby residents, such as Windwhispering Town."

　"Windwhispering Town?"

　Xing Mo recalled the small town where she had stayed for a while. She had a fight with General Wangyou in that town and finally had her first church.

　Wait a minute, since some of the people who were abducted into the valley were from Windwhisper Town, doesn’t that mean that some of my followers are among them?

　This unexpected discovery suddenly brought a new idea to Xing Mo's mind. She signaled everyone to stay where they were, then closed her eyes and reached out to grab at the air.

　"Buzzing..."

　Soon, she sensed several faint spots of light in the river valley.

　Those light spots were clustered together with many different light spots and showed no signs of moving.

　"Those hostages are all held in the mill," Xingmo opened her eyes, "Apart from that mill, any place else could be surrounded by the dark elves."

　It seems that the Children of Time really intended to turn the valley into a trap and lure the Extraordinary Tribe into it.

　"Since they are so straightforward, we don't need to hide anything," Xing Mo said, "Just attack directly."

　At this time, a melodious horn sounded from the distant valley. When the sound waves reached everyone's ears, it seemed like a slight dragon roar was heard.

　"The fifteen-minute countdown begins." Lucius snapped the pocket watch shut.

　He waved his hand, and the dark mist instantly enveloped everyone, moving quickly in the shadows.

　By the time the black fog dispersed, everyone had arrived at the main road of the valley settlement.

　Not far away, a mill stood by the river, and on the street leading to the mill, a figure

　Shadow was standing upright.

　He didn't seem to have any intention of hiding, and faced Xing Mo and his group who suddenly appeared, without any surprise at all.

　"Let the hostages go," Xing Mo took two steps forward, "You are no match for me."

　"As expected of Xinghai's lackey, your words are just like your god: arrogant, conceited, and laughable."

　The dark elf sneered at Xingmo, swung his arm, and a two-meter-long arm blade extended.

　"But I suggest you think before you act. All I need is one command, and those hostages will die instantly. You might be able to defeat me, but can you outrun time?"

　"You mean, you want to negotiate terms with me?" Xing Mo raised her eyebrows slightly.

　"Indeed," the dark elf sneered. "I long to negotiate with you, lackey of the Star Sea. You and your kind have poisoned this world into a chessboard of fate, yet you regard the resistance of the creatures on the surface as nothing. The chess you are playing is a path of bondage, a path..."

　"Alright, stop stalling," Xingmo spread her hands. "I know you want to hold me back so your companions can enter the Citadel and kidnap Fu El, right?"

　Hearing this, the dark elf paused noticeably, then said gloomily:

　"Joe Iron betrayed us..."

　"Believe me, he doesn't want to betray me." Xing Mo smiled faintly.

　"So what if you know? You're already here. We're determined to capture Fu El."

　"is it?"

　Xingmo waved her hand, and Alia walked out from behind her, looking firmly at the dark elf opposite.

　Seeing her, the dark elf lost his composure and stretched out his hand and shouted:

　"F-El! Return to the tribe! The time has come!"

　"I...I'm not you!" Alia summoned her courage and said viciously, "You are the bad guys!"

　"You will remember it, whether you like it or not," the dark elf said coldly, "the time has come, time should end, time should be broken..."

　He muttered a lot of broken words, but before he finished, he heard an explosion behind him -

　"Oh!"

　The dark elf turned around suddenly and saw smoke coming out of the mill - it had been blown up.

　"Yes, the time has come," Xingmo smiled as he looked at the somewhat exasperated dark elf. "I'm waiting for my companions to send a signal. What are you waiting for?"

　At this moment, right next to the mill, Angelica and Albus finally emerged from the darkness.

　The two had just been wrapped in the mist of history - Xing Mo used his teeth to peel their existence off from history, and then threw them directly to the mill.

　As soon as they emerged from history, the two blew up the mill.

　Looking at the unconscious residents inside, Albus cut his wrist with a silver knife and splashed his blood out -

　"Sizzle!"

　Grayish-white mist surged out of the air, swallowing up the blood and then pouring into the bodies of the residents.

　After collecting the sacrifices, countless nature spirits were used by Albus, seizing control of the bodies of the residents, manipulating them to stand up and escape through the gap in the mill.

　""

　On Xingmo's side, when the battle started, she caught the changes in the mechanism structure on the dark elf's mask at first glance.

　He is going to use the shuttle!

　Almost instantly, Lucius drew out his wand with an expressionless face. A ray of starlight shot out instantly, accurately tearing open the mechanical structure of the dark elf's waist.

　"Sizzle!"

　The shuttle's pipeline was destroyed, and the dark elves' plan to enter the time rift was ruined. They staggered back several steps amid the explosion of electric sparks.
