Crystal Palace from Infinite Anime

Only then did Lin Zhiyu stop kneeling on one knee, stood up from the ground and looked at Lani.

Lani stared at Lin Zhiyu and immediately said to herself, "I warned you before, but now it seems that it was all in vain."

"But... I'm actually very happy and thankful that my king is you."

Having said this, the witch immediately ended her eye contact with Lin Zhiyu, turned around, and said to Lin Zhiyu with her back to him, "I will ascend to the night sky - where my law lies. You should also continue on the path to becoming a king! When we have both completed our respective tasks, that will be the time for us to meet again."

After finishing her words in one breath, Lani disappeared from the spot, without giving Lin Zhiyu the chance to call her.

She left decisively wearing the Darkmoon Ring.

However, as she disappeared, a dark blue sword inserted into the ground appeared at her previous position.

Looking at the weapon left by Lani, Lin Zhiyu smiled, took a step forward and grasped the hilt of the sword.

Darkmoon Greatsword: A moon-like greatsword gifted to a partner by successive Kalia queens, considered one of the "legendary weapons." As Lani's symbol is the cold dark moon, the moon-like greatsword she bestows upon them releases waves of icy moonlight.

...So this wave is equivalent to exchanging tokens of love.

Lin Zhiyu put the Dark Moon Ring on Lani's finger, as if proposing to her.

Lani gave Lin Zhiyu the Moon Greatsword, which symbolized his identity as the Dark Moon King's husband.

wrong,

If you really think about it, it was actually Lani who gave the Darkmoon Ring to Lin Zhiyu first.

When getting married, the wedding ring is paid for by the woman.

After that, the woman also gave him a "luxury car"!

"Okay, okay, my wife is just great!" Lin Zhiyu became happier the more he thought about it. When he thought about how Lani had left in a hurry just now, he realized that Lani was probably having a tsundere moment. After she said that she was very happy that he was her king, which was tantamount to a confession of love, she felt embarrassed to stay with him any longer.

She said she wanted to ascend into the night sky to find her own laws.

Is this matter really so urgent to her that she cannot stay here for even a moment longer?

Then why did she hide in this cave and wait until Lin Zhiyu came to put the ring on her finger?

Even at the end, even though he left in such a hurry, he did not forget to leave behind the Darkmoon Greatsword.

So this is really the tsundere showing up, and shyness is running away, right?

With this in mind, Lin Zhiyu couldn't help but take out the petite Lani, gently holding the figurine of his wife in one hand, and gently stroking the nose of the figurine's face with his thumb a few times.

"Haha, so cute~"

--at the same time.

On the field of the Moonlight Altar, Princess Dark Moon, wearing a cloak, stood under a beam of bright white starlight, and a blush suddenly appeared on her delicate face.

"Hmph~!"

The witch snorted softly, pursed her lips, and twitched her nose several times, saying everything...

------------------------------

time flies.

A week later.

Nimgfu, Stonewell City, on the north gate wall.

"Crack-!"

The magic pot, whose lethality should not be underestimated, smashed into the passage behind the parapet, triggering a magic explosion that killed the nearest Grek soldier on the spot.

"Everyone, do not retreat! Defend the city walls for us, even if it means death!"

Swish! A Grek knight swung his greatsword and killed the Kalia soldiers who were attacking the city wall. He then let out a deafening shout, ordering all the soldiers defending the city wall not to retreat.

clang! clang! clang! clang!

The sounds of weapons clashing and metal clashing echoed on the city walls.

This was a siege initiated by Kalia against Stonewell.

The siege began during the day and it was already evening.

Group after group of Kalia's soldiers climbed up the city wall fearlessly and fought with the defenders on the wall. At this time, the city wall was in chaos.

Under the city wall, more Kalia soldiers were charging and climbing the ladders.

There were also several goblin knights wearing helmets and cloaks, pushing giant battering rams straight towards the city gate.

On the city wall, Knight Greg was already overwhelmed by the struggle to deal with the Kalia soldiers who had scaled the walls. Then, upon seeing several gigantic goblin knights pushing battering rams towards the city gate, he was horrified and shouted to his followers:

"Hurry and request reinforcements from Lord Greg! Tell Lord Greg that the North Gate will be lost without reinforcements!"

……

At the same time, in the wilderness 800 meters away from the southern wall of Stonewell City, a thousand-man army composed almost entirely of hybrids and subhumans was ready to move.

At the battlefront, a lion hybrid that resembled Leomon from Digimon whispered to Li Meifeng, who was standing beside him, "Why haven't you ordered an attack yet? With us threatening the south gate, Greg won't necessarily send all of his mobile forces to reinforce the north gate. If Kalia is really storming the north gate as you say, we should also attack with all our might, joining Kalia on both sides to put maximum pressure on Stonewell's defenses!"

"I know you're anxious, but don't worry." Li Meifeng crossed her arms and said confidently to the lion hybrid beside her who was already eager to attack, "Trust me, someone will soon open this southern city gate from the inside..."

"..." The lion hybrid fell silent, not arguing with Li Meifeng. He didn't know why, but whenever he had to make an important decision, he always found it difficult to refute the mysterious woman next to him. She was the one who had found him over a week ago and helped him eliminate all the remaining defenders of Morn City.

The lion hybrid still vividly remembers what the mysterious woman said to him at that time:

"Want revenge? Do you also want to kill the source of this oppression, the culprit who brought all of this upon you, 'Limb-Graco'? Morn City is simply too remote and too cramped. With so many hybrids like you, you need a larger base. Stonewell, for example, would be a good choice."

The woman's voice seemed to contain some kind of magic.

Deep down, the lion hybrid felt something was amiss. But under the woman's instigation, he couldn't refuse and, for some reason, nodded and agreed to cooperate.

And in fact.

Li Meifeng just used a little bit of illusion to magnify the hybrid army led by the lion hybrid's desire for revenge against "limb-replacing" Greg a little bit.

The hybrids who rebelled in Morn City weren't clueless—they'd always known that Morn City was under Greg's rule. Therefore, from the outset, the hybrids were filled with hostility towards Greg, and this hostility was the fundamental reason they were bewitched by the illusion.

...at the same time.

A rugged mountain road leading directly to the city of Stonewell.

"It's almost time, let's prepare to attack." Lin Zhiyu, wearing the armor of the Kalia Knight, put on his helmet and drew out the Sword of Night and Fire that he was carrying with him.

Behind Lin Zhiyu.

Millicent holding a weapon with a prosthetic hand, Saeko Busujima holding an iron meteorite knife, and Laura holding a short bow.

They are a four-man special assault team.

Stonewell City was built on a cliff, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, this also resulted in some defensive loopholes. For example, a section of the city wall, long in disrepair on the cliff edge, actually connected to an extremely rugged mountain road. Normally, no one could enter Stonewell through this mountain road because it was too steep and dangerous.

Even if someone can successfully pass this mountain road, it is only a very rare case and not enough to cause any waves.

But if it was a small team led by Lin Zhiyu, with Millicent, Busujima Saeko and Laura, this configuration would not only break into Stonewell but also cause chaos in the city.

Even if we face a demigod, we have a good chance of winning!

So, today, Lin Zhiyu is determined to get Shi Dongweier!

Or rather, it should be said that Greg's Great Rune must be obtained at all costs.

As the husband of the Dark Moon King, and a knight of Kalia recognized by Reinara after she regained consciousness, Lin Zhiyu asked Kalia's troops for help. Although Kalia had long been in decline, once Reinara regained consciousness and raised her arms, she could naturally gather a decent army.

Plus the hybrid and subhuman armies in the south.

Facing attacks from both sides, Greg must be under a lot of pressure.

Lin Zhiyu also arranged in advance for a Desire Demon who was good at stealth to sneak into the south gate of Stonewell and cooperate with the hybrid subhuman army to seize the south gate of Stonewell when the time came.

It can be said that even if Lin Zhiyu did not carry out any decapitation operation, Stonewell would most likely be breached.

But on the other hand——

When all of Stonewell's garrison forces were mobilized to the north and south walls due to excessive pressure on the city's defense, wasn't it the perfect time for Lin Zhiyu and his small team to raid the Stonewell Palace and take Greg directly?

Greg is not scary, he is the weakest among the many "Fragment Kings".

But Greg has many powerful Lost Home Knights and a large number of other guards under his command.

As long as these defensive forces are transferred away, killing Greg and taking Darun will naturally be a piece of cake!

The author says:

Author's words: Speed ​​up, speed up! If I don't write faster, this chapter of the Ring of Magic will take 150 chapters to finish. Brothers who see this, please understand me. It's true that the response to the Ring of Magic was not particularly good, so I have to speed up the pace and finish this volume as soon as possible.

Chapter 81: The Least “Guaranteed” Episode

In the city of Stonewell, on the passage in front of the Lord's Palace.

bass--

The sword flashes!

Purple arcs symbolizing gravity danced on the blade.

Swish!

In an instant, blood splattered and a thick arm was cut off and fell to the ground.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--!"

Greg, whose bloated body was covered with arms, cried out in pain, and his pale face had a hideous expression.

Saeko Busujima, who cut off one of Greg's arms, held an iron meteorite knife that contained gravity and had purple arcs flashing on the blade. There was no expression on her pretty face, but her heart was full of contempt for Greg, who was neither human nor ghost.

"If that's the case, maybe I can take care of him alone!"

Originally, Saeko Busujima thought that as a "Fragment King" who possessed the Great Rune, Greg's combat power should be on the same level as the Star-Breaking General Ratan - even if he couldn't compare to Ratan, he wouldn't be much worse, right?

As a result, as soon as they fought, she found that although they were both Fragment Kings, Greg was really weak and could not be compared with Latarn at all!

"This time, just chop off his head!"

All thoughts only last for a moment.

At this moment, Busujima Saeko, whose murderous intent was rising, was about to attack Greg again with her lightning speed.

Having lost an arm, Greg was furious. He had many arms grafted onto his body, so losing one shouldn't be a cause for concern. But this was "Golden" Greg! He was determined to accumulate strength through grafting and become the king of the borderland!

He couldn't accept the fact that one of his hands was chopped off by an unknown woman as soon as they met!

"Ah...damn woman, I want you to pay the price!"

Greg roared, gripping a large axe in one hand and began to spin and swing it in place.

Busujima Saeko rushed towards Greg with the iron meteorite knife in her hand. She always felt that Greg's movement of spinning and swinging the axe was very familiar.

Just when Busujima Saeko closed the distance to where she could draw her sword and hit Greg.

"call!"

A violent storm suddenly arose with Greg at its center.

"not good!"

Busujima Saeko opened her eyes wide in shock, quickly braked, did a somersault and jumped back. With her "snake body", she had a body flexibility far beyond the limits of humans. Things like rushing too fast and not being able to stop the car or forcing the brakes and causing muscle strain would never happen to her.

And just at the moment when Busujima Saeko did a somersault and jumped back, she avoided being hit by Greg's "Call the Storm" and landed on the ground.

"Whoosh!"

A pretty figure suddenly flew into the air behind Busujima Saeko, her body seemed unaffected by gravity, and then she paused in mid-air, her shadow covering Busujima Saeko.

Greg didn't see that much. He only noticed that his "Call the Storm" easily forced Saeko Busujima back, and then he laughed heartily:

"Hahahaha! Witness it with fear! This is the power of a king!"

As he finished speaking, Greg stopped "Raise the Storm", dragged the axe on the ground and looked at Busujima Saeko with a haughty look.

Although one of his hands was cut off by Busujima Saeko just now, Greg did not think that Busujima Saeko was his opponent. He was just careless just now!

"What an arrogant and stupid guy." Seeing Greg's eyes full of arrogance, Busujima Saeko couldn't help but shook her head, then raised her left hand and pointed her index finger at the sky above where she was.

Greg then raised his head slightly and shifted his gaze upwards.
