Chris's Faith of Fire

"Lian, Mr. Lian! Help me!"

Before the boy finished speaking, Lian used the same technique to knock out the succubus and held the boy in her other hand.

"Who is that?" Ollie asked looking at Rebekah held in Lian's hand.

"I'm in the same situation as you, but this girl is a good person. Putting aside this, can you still maintain your consciousness?"

"Well, I felt so sick after eating that meal...I, I threw it up."

"Good boy... your magical ability seems to be extraordinary."

"Before, I did do enchanting when I was in Rodculu Saint, although, although I was just an apprentice..."

"really?"

"Yeah!" The boy used to stutter when speaking, but when faced with questions, he nodded firmly.

Lian remembered that he still had jewelry on his body that could be used for enchantment. These were hidden in an invisible void bag. For him, as a true citizen of Nefera, this was a privilege.

He took out a large bag of jewelry and handed it to the boy, then separately found a large coral gemstone and gem cutting tools.

"Can I cut off the enchantment immediately?"

"It should be fine...but I'm not in a good state right now."

Lian took out another bottle of potion.

"Drink this and your Mana will be full immediately."

"Ok!"

When the young man drank the potion given by Lian, he suddenly felt as light as a swallow.

He immediately picked up the jewelry enchanting tool, placed the coral gem on the ground and started working.

"What kind of magical effect do you want to elicit...?"

"Light! The most powerful light attack, even if it is only durable and can be used once, there is no problem. Try to increase the power as much as possible."

"Hey! But adding such a big piece will increase the power."

"Just do as I tell you!"

"Yes!"

Lian's expression was not a joke. It was the first time that Ollie saw such a terrifying face from the always gentle young man.

The boy immediately worked hard. Even though the amount of mana he drank increased, he was still sweating profusely. This job is not easy for any enchanter. Kelian felt that the boy could do it. This seemingly slow child also had hidden secrets. His incredible talent was discovered in time, and Lian felt a glimmer of hope.

The gentle strokes of the hammer are accompanied by the sharp strokes of the diamond knife forming a concerto.

The work was done... After seeing the reddish coral gem, Lian wiped the sweat off her forehead, put it back into her void bag, and handed the other gems to the boy.

"Put these away, they may be a bit heavy... but don't lose them. If anything happens to me, just take this part and exchange it for money, and then cut a part of the gem that has the ability to break the curse and bring it with you. Everyone here will be affected by it." Cursed, Haggar too, they will be saved by you."

"Yeah! Yeah!" The young man nodded repeatedly.

"Then go find Princess Crystal. She left the city not long ago... The mercenary office should be able to find out her whereabouts. If you find her, take her to Latiana!"

In Rebekah's memory, it was Chris who caused the riots in the city.

She seems to have done something extraordinary, and Mia's change may also have something to do with her.

Maybe it was just intuition, but Lian felt that everything would be solved if he found her.

"Yeah! But Mr. Lian... what about you?"

"Lilim won't let me go," he whispered, hugging Rebekah and Ollie tightly.

"Eh?"

"Hold on first."

"Ok!"

Lian held the young girl in her arms and spread out her demon wings. They floated in mid-air, and Ollie's eyes widened in surprise.

The stars surrounded the twin moons in the dark night sky. Looking down at the city made Ollie feel dizzy. He had just exhausted most of his energy and almost fainted.Lian slapped him awake, but he couldn't sleep yet.

He wanted to just fly out of this city. There should be a few towns in the south where he could stay, but it was no longer safe here.

Just when she was thinking about this, Lian felt something approaching.

He shook his body...a dark spear flew past where he was just now.

There is no need to guess who did it.

What he saw when he turned around was a red-haired beauty, wearing revealing tight clothes, with wings growing out of her back and using a long tail to maintain balance. Sure enough, she had possessed Akagi's body, and Lilim looked different from her original appearance. .

"Lilim..." Lian whispered helplessly.

The succubus also showed a happy expression when she heard her name.

"A handsome guy like you actually remembers me, Lord Arkad~"

"No one will forget being slept with for 300 years."

"Hahahaha~ What, that impure statement." Lilim covered her mouth and laughed exaggeratedly. "I just let you sleep for a while. I didn't look at your cute sleeping face or do anything weird~"

"That's really thankful. Although it's not as exaggerated as Duke Asha, I hate old women the most."

Lian smiled slightly. His provocation had an effect, and Lilim's expression immediately became ferocious.

"What are you talking about... You don't seem to understand the situation now, little bat. Now you are like a turtle in a urn. Half of the people in this city are my subordinates. I have gained a lot of energy. Do you think you can defeat me? 300 years You couldn't do it before when you were strengthened by the hero, let alone now."

"Really, if I remember correctly, I have never lost to you in a duel. By the way, I just sucked blood~"

A confident smile appeared on the young man's face.

The succubus looked at the girl he was holding.

"It's this little bitch. Then let's try it and defeat me with those two children." The finger claws of Lilim's hands grew longer and became as hard as steel in an instant. "Let's see if you are the opponent of the Four Heavenly Kings~"

"The familiar, the big devil!"

When the succubus finished speaking, Lian was not far behind. He summoned a winged demon, and the demon ran out of the shadows with its dark wings stretched out.

This is the most powerful familiar that Lian Neng can summon. It may be a little willful at times, but due to the contract, it will never betray its master.

The battle with the Four Heavenly Kings is very risky, and he must try his best...

Under the light of the pale red moons, the fierce battle between demons...

At the touch of a hair.

Chapter 178 178. The Illusionary Heir——1

"We are in this night together! Although the journey is long, we are not afraid of the darkness and dangers."

"Invincible under the protection of the stars."

"The free hands are only for holding the sword."

"Not as a king, not as a noble, not as a brave man."

"Not for my parents, not for my wife, not for my children."

"But the patron saint of the weak."

"Because we are all..."

"Son of Zersi!"

The long dark night was surrounded by several crow sounds. It fluttered its black wings and came to the eaves, but was frightened away by the falling rubble on the eaves. The crows in the Holy City are never afraid of people. No one drives them away and no one will give them a second glance. .All loud sounds are extremely harsh in Neferait.Alves looked around at the people staring at them, and he lowered his head with a blush.

"Captain, are we too noisy?" Alves blocked it with his palm and whispered in the commander's ear.

The leader of the group, Ma Kai, blushed slightly because he was drunk and pushed the boy away. "Hmph, don't say anything to spoil the fun... If you are a mercenary, you have to live like a mercenary." He took another sip of wine mid-sentence. "The fork in my hand is skewered with the most fragrant pork, the sharpest sword is on my waist, I am drunk on the most delicious wine, and I sleep in the arms of the most charming beauties. This is what the adults of Neferait promise. Yes, that's why we came. 100 gold coins for each person. If you lose one, I will turn around and leave. The Demon King of the North's army is very strong. I can save you cowards who are hiding from chanting sutras. Why! Why bother even if you sing a few songs here? Are you monks here?"

Ma Kai's roar echoed through the entire store, and the customers who had been glaring at them immediately shrank their necks and lowered their heads in frustration.

"Haha, you coward." Ma Kai still laughed loudly. Several guests immediately paid their bills and left. It seemed like they were asking for trouble in this place.

Looking around, he only saw a petite hooded guest in the corner. Apart from him, the only people left in the hotel were members of their mercenary group, Ma Kai and himself, two warriors, and two archers. Two wizards and one paladin who is no longer a member of the Holy See.After defeating the red giant dog last time, Alvis became famous as he wished. They got countless gold, ate delicacies, drank all the hotels in the empire, and used the best brothel in the empire as a hotel.Ma Kai changed the name of the group to "Sons of Zersi". Although many mercenaries were dissatisfied with this, Ma Kai beat them all down, and Alves would leave them wounded as soon as he took action.

Ma Kai kept talking about their heroic deeds, but the young proprietress still clamored for them to leave.

Ma Kai, who couldn't stand the boss's wife's nagging, gave her a silver coin and then took her into his arms.

Alves shook his head, and the brothers in the group patted him on the shoulder. He wore glasses and was an elegant wizard, but at this moment, the mead was stained with gray robes. "Boss is excited. Besides, we now have the qualifications."

"Qualifications..." Alves looked at the sword hanging on his waist. The sword grid was inlaid with crosses, and there was a hooded man's head on the hilt. The sword was a beautiful purple color after being pulled out, and the blade was There is a perfect recurve bow, and the barbs on the blade seem to be able to take away the flesh and fat of any creature.

"Am I really qualified to hold this sword?"

"At least others can't use it, so that's what it thinks you mean." The wizard took a bite of the meat skewer, and Alvis sighed. He wanted to gain glory before fighting the red two-headed dog Otrus. I want to become famous, I want to be the dream lover of every girl...

He once wanted everything, fame and fortune.

It was not in vain that he left his family, abandoned his sister and father, and went out to take risks.

But now that everything is in Alves' hands, he no longer yearns for it.

"It's not me who's powerful, it's this sword."

That day the monster stepped on the ground, and Alvis fell into the abyss.

But he did not die there. Instead, he discovered a ruins with a transparent and shiny floor that reflected water patterns.

Before his consciousness fell into darkness, he saw a person. His long hood almost covered his entire face. His thin and not tall body exuded a strong sense of coercion. There were two long swords hanging on his waist. , approaching Alves step by step.

"Master Phantom God..." Alves subconsciously thought as he squatted down and nodded slightly, took one of the long swords from his waist and handed it to Alves, and then disappeared without a trace.

I don't know if it was a moment or an instant. When Alves opened his eyes again and came to his senses, he had already returned to the ground where he was standing before falling down. He slashed the giant dog into two pieces with his sword. Ma Kai couldn't cut through it just now. The monster's muscles were easily taken away like pieces of paper.Alves stood there blankly, chanting Lord Phantom God's name repeatedly.After handling the injured and monster corpses, everyone entered the ruins. No one saw the figure of the phantom god, including Alves.

The things given by the "Illusion God" can only be manipulated by this fledgling. In the hands of others, they will become extremely heavy and even burn their palms if they are held for a long time.Ma Kai didn't care what was going on, but he knew that they would have a steady stream of gold based on this story.

"The sword chose you...you were chosen by Master Phantom God." The deep voice of the paladin in the team pulled Alvis back, and he also drank a glass of wine. "Even the best swordsman in the world can't do anything without a sword, and the best sword in the world is nothing but a piece of scrap metal without a user. Power is power. Power can be oneself, or it can be relied on tools... Understand this Only then can you become a mercenary."

He was right, Alves couldn't argue with that.Everyone is much older than Alves and speaks very maturely. Not only in terms of combat experience, they are also Alves's teachers in terms of life and life.Alvis Serel met the wandering knight Ma Kai in Rodculo Saint, and gave him gold coins to teach him swordsmanship. Ma Kai saw that he was a piece of material, so he took Alves into his mercenary group and wandered around. .

Ma Kai once had a title, but his skills in politics and interpersonal relationships were much worse than his skills with a sword. One day, he got drunk and directly hacked to death an opponent who had been besieging him in the officialdom. He had no choice but to become a mercenary. Make money with your sword.He is casual but meticulous in details. There are only men in the team because Ma Kai knows that female soldiers will destroy the unity of the team.In his words, why should you keep a woman by your side when you can just go to a prostitute?

Just follow them, you will be rich and famous... they will queue up to bring any girl you want to your door, the knight will bow to you, and if your sister survives in the North, she can live a good life and get married. To the best man.

Alves drank himself one cup after another. His eyes glanced to the side. The kid wearing a hood in the corner just happened to pay and go out.

"I'm going out for some fresh air..." Alves said.

"It's okay to come back later. Just find a place to have fun by yourself."

Ma Kai only left these words and stopped looking at Alves.

Chapter 179 179. The Illusionary Heir——2

The path was unexpectedly quiet, and the sound of four feet stepping on the fine stone echoed in the city night.There are some differences between the Holy City of Neferait and the cities of the Empire. Although they are both magnificent, the Empire is never as quiet as the Holy City at night. Everyone in the mercenary group said that the residents of the Holy City are all the goddess Neve. Loyal believers of La, they abide by every doctrine, and they even punish themselves when they accidentally violate it, and they dare not neglect.

Alves unknowingly kept up with the child's pace. Even though there was only the sound of their two pairs of shoes, the child didn't notice. He walked staggeringly, as if he was drunk and completely lost his balance. Originally, Alvis was just driven by curiosity. Affected by this, Si followed even more closely.

Is he okay? Alves was thinking as he saw the boy walking crookedly towards the alley between the chapel and the houses, shaking his body while holding on to the wall...

Maybe the child was walking home, what on earth was he doing? Alves sighed, he was too curious and shouldn't meddle in other people's business.He has been confused since he obtained the sword of the phantom god. It should be said that he is still confused to this day. Ma Kai and the soldiers in the team are no longer his opponents. He, who was just a novice, suddenly became the core of the team. Ma Kai can't help but feel confused. He only cares about what he can get. Perhaps as the Paladin said, the Sword of the Illusionary God is just a piece of scrap metal to them.It will only become a burden on your luggage during the long night.

"Go back." Alves sighed and was about to turn around and go back to the tavern. Ma Kai asked him to find a place to relax, but the Holy City is not like the Empire where the lights are lit until dawn, and the people here are very boring. Alves looked at it The child walked into the alley, shook his head and walked back. But at this time he heard other sounds. It should have been only his and the boy's footsteps, but now they became more numerous and more urgent. .It is obviously a purposeful step.

That's not right... But do you want to mind your own business?

This thought only appeared in Alves' mind for a moment. He immediately turned around again, began to exert force on his metatarsals and mobilized the energy of his whole body from his foot tendons. Alves ran, his right hand pressed on the hilt of his sword, His eyes were focused on the few people in front.Their figures were not very stable, and Alves recognized him as the guest who was laughed at by Ma Kai when they were in the tavern... Maybe he became a little excited under the influence of alcohol, and he thought that child was also a member of our group. .

Several drunkards turned the corner ahead, the road between the building and the chapel that the young man had entered.

After a while he heard voices coming from the alley.

"Let me go! What do you want to do? Do you know who I am?"

"Ah? She's still a girl. Does that mercenary group still like to raise babies?"

"What, what a mercenary group! Ugh..."

"She, she vomited!"

"Don't dirty the boots I just bought!"

"Ugh... ugh... what are you talking about? I have to let you see how powerful I am..."
