Along with the sky castle that appeared over the Kingdom of Liberl, the stagnation of the guide force that swept across Liberl before reappeared. However, this time it was even larger in scale, not only covering the entire territory of Liberl, but also affecting the Empire and the Republic.
Although after the previous coup in the capital, in order to ensure that such a thing would not happen again, Chase Central Workshop and Dr. Russell have been actively researching countermeasures, but after all, it is still too short, and there is no way to use large-scale countermeasures so far. Therefore, facing such a large-scale stoppage of the power of conduction, they are also helpless.
At the same time, taking advantage of the fact that the entire Liberl area was paralyzed due to the cessation of its guiding force, the "Snake of the Body" association led the Hunter Corps to make a comeback and directly invade the Liberl royal city Gransel.
However, their footsteps only reached the city gate.
"It's you again."
Looking at Reinhardt standing opposite him, Xiao Hei sighed helplessly.
"You are such an indestructible bug. It's ok for you to survive a few times, but you always come looking for trouble. Do you think you have lived too long?"
"I never realized that you, a little girl, are so sharp-tongued."
Hearing Xiao Hei's complaint, a green-haired woman wearing a kimono and holding a fan standing behind Reinhardt sneered and glanced at Reinhardt.
"Sword Emperor, look at what you have done. Now even a child can speak nonsense to us at will."
"If you feel unhappy, you can go and argue with her, Illusion Bell."
Reinhardt looked solemn and stared at Xiao Hei seriously.
"But I have to tell you, this little girl is very difficult to deal with."
"Yes, this big brother is lucky, but you, old lady, are different."
While laughing, Xiao Hei looked at the Bell of Illusion.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you are an old woman, but you are still wearing such revealing clothes. Are you trying to make up for your lack of beauty with sex appeal? But your skin is full of wrinkles, and you may even have age spots. You want to seduce people by dressing like this? You are so ignorant."
"What did you say? Little devil!"
Hearing Xiao Hei's ridicule, the Illusion Bell's face suddenly turned gloomy.
"You are so young, but you are so sharp-tongued. I want to see if you have what it takes to speak so arrogantly in front of me!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you get angry so easily. You look like a menopausal woman. And why are you so furious? Did I get it right?"
"you……!!!"
"alright."
Just when the two sides were about to fight, suddenly, a figure came out and blocked the two people. It was a woman wearing white armor and a helmet. She stood in front of the Illusion Bell and the Sword Emperor, looking at Xiao Hei in front of her.
"We don't want to engage in a meaningless fight. Little sister, could you please move aside?"
"Wow, at this point, you're still talking about 'pointless fighting'. Are you kidding me? It's obvious that everything was started by you rats."
"Disrespectful fellow!"
After hearing this, the Illusion Bell could no longer bear it.
"Do you know who this lady is? She is the 'Saint of Steel'..."
"Leftover woman? The leftover woman of steel? How miserable is this woman, no one wants her and she has a nickname?"
Xiao Hei laughed again, showing no fear at all.
"So what if she's rude? Why should I be polite to you guys? Your association is causing trouble everywhere and harming the country. It's crazy to be polite to you. I don't care if she's a steel leftover girl, an iron leftover girl, or a steel leftover girl. In short, since she's a member of the association, she's a rat or a mouse, a product of the sewer and can't escape."
As she spoke, Xiao Hei raised her hands, and as she moved, a double blade of black and white appeared in her hands.
"Last time, big brother said he wanted to capture them alive, so I didn't use my full strength. But this time it's different, big brother is very angry, and the order he gave me is to kill without mercy... So, are you ready to die?!"
"In that case, there is nothing we can do."
Hearing Xiao Hei's answer, the Leftover Steel Girl - ahem, the Saint of Steel sighed, then she raised her right hand, and then a spear appeared out of thin air and fell into her hand.
"The Seventh Pillar of the Serpent's Apostle, Arianhed of Steel, will fight it out here!!"
The two sides looked at each other, and then the next moment, there was a flash of light.
The whirling spear rushed forward, like a gust of wind across the earth, roaring and rushing towards the city gate, sending flying sand and rocks everywhere it passed, shaking the earth. Like a roaring wave, it crashed into the earth.
"Rho Aias!"
A petal-shaped round shield shining with purple light suddenly appeared, blocking the roaring and rushing gunfire like a dam, accompanied by explosions again, and gravel flying. Even the stone bridge behind Xiao Hei that connected to the royal city collapsed and shattered because it could not withstand the aftermath of the battle between the two sides.
When the dust settled, Xiao Hei was still standing there, smiling triumphantly. She stretched out her right hand, and in front of her palm, the purple light shield was intact.
"How is that possible?"
Seeing this scene, the Illusion Bell's expression changed.
"Can you even block the Saint Lady's strongest attack?!"
"This level is worthy of being called the strongest. It seems that the association is really nothing great. Well, now it's my turn!"
Vaccine said this to you, Xiao Hei waved his hand suddenly.
"Trace on (projection starts), Roll Gancel (full stroke destruction)!"
At the same time, the space was shattered.
A huge emerald green sword appeared out of thin air and swept across the three people in front of it. It was like a moving mountain collapse, with flying sand and rocks, swallowing everything!
"Lglima (Hypothesis: Opening up the green land of thousands of mountains)!"
"not good!!"
Facing this giant sword that seemed to move mountains, the three of them suddenly changed their expressions. The Steel Saint also waved the spear in her hand and shouted an order.
"You guys retreat!!"
While roaring, the Steel Saint raised her spear. Soon, golden spiritual energy rushed up into the sky. Then she gripped the spear tightly, roared, and both she and the spear turned into a dazzling golden light. She rushed towards the giant sword that was almost sweeping across the entire earth, and collided with each other.
“Boom!!!!”
With a dull collision sound, the speed of the giant sword slowly slowed down, and then it fell to the ground with a "bang" and shattered completely.
"Not bad, then what about this attack?!"
Seeing her projection attack blocked, Xiao Hei did not feel frustrated at all. On the contrary, she raised the corner of her mouth and showed a smug smile. At the same time, her right hand once again grasped the air, and with the emergence of magical brilliance, a seemingly non-existent, strange and bizarre greatsword appeared in Xiao Hei's hand. Then Xiao Hei grasped the greatsword tightly and swung it forward!
"Sul-sagana (The dawn horizon of the absolute burning sea)!"
As Xiao Hei swung his sword vigorously, flames emerged from under the earth. The ground in front of him suddenly collapsed and shattered. The erupting flames shot up into the sky, directly covering everything in front of him.
"boom!!!"
However, just as the flames were about to engulf the entire earth, the golden light burst out again, breaking through the restraints of the flames. Soon, the roaring flames scattered in all directions, and in the midst of them, the Saint of Steel half-knelt on the ground, holding a spear in her hand, gasping for breath.
"She's quite tough, no wonder she's called the Saint of Steel..."
Seeing this scene, Xiao Hei curled her lips, then she seemed to have discovered something and her eyes lit up.
"Hmm? This aura...ah, I see!"
Having said that, Xiao Hei suddenly chuckled.
"I was wondering why I couldn't kill you. After all this time, it turns out you're immortal... No wonder, so that's why you're called the 'Steel Leftover Girl'? No man has wanted you for hundreds of years? How pitiful..."
"Oops!!"
Hearing what Xiao Hei said, Steel Remaining… Saint’s face also changed greatly. In fact, until now, she still hadn’t figured out the origin of this little girl in front of her. The fighting skills she used were unheard of by her. It was as if she had created powerful weapons out of thin air to fight, and looking at the little girl’s appearance, she didn’t seem to feel the slightest bit of fatigue.
Where does she get such powerful strength?
Of course, the Steel Saint didn't know that this was the ability Xiao Hei gained after becoming a five-star Heroic Spirit. In the past, she had not been able to use projection magic so freely, but after Fang Zheng helped Xiao Hei to upgrade her level, Xiao Hei now possessed spiritual power as powerful as Illya's Lesser Holy Grail. In addition, she was a Heroic Spirit - Heroic Spirits and MASTERs are connected and supply magic power. With Fang Zheng's magic as a backing, for Xiao Hei, there was nothing she could not project.
Although the Steel Saint does not know Xiao Hei's origins, she has now discovered that this little girl possesses strength far beyond her own - perhaps even if the seven Serpent Apostles gathered together, they would not be able to contend with her!
"Retreat immediately and leave here!!"
Thinking of this, the Saint of Steel immediately gave the order, and the Illusion Bell and the Sword Emperor did not hesitate at all and quickly chose to retreat.
"Do you think running away is so easy?!"
Seeing that the three people wanted to retreat, Xiao Hei sneered and then raised her hands.
"I am the bone of my sword..."
No one knew what Xiao Hei was thinking. Led by the Saint of Steel, the Sword Emperor and the Illusion Bell retreated hastily, trying to leave. But before they could move, a howling gust of wind came towards them, enveloping the three of them.
When the storm disappeared and the three opened their eyes again, they were shocked.
What they saw before them was no longer the Royal City of Gransel, but an endless expanse of hills filled with all kinds of weapons. Under the thick bright red clouds in the sky, they could see huge gears turning constantly.
The smell of steel, smoke and fire.
"What is this? This is not an illusion!!"
Looking around in horror, Bell of Illusion shouted loudly in surprise. She was good at using illusions, so she was able to react immediately and realized that the three of them were not trapped in some kind of illusion.
"My elder brother warned me last time not to destroy the castle again. Now I don't have to worry about that."
At the same time, Xiao Hei's figure appeared in front of them again, and along with her, there were hundreds of sharp blades emerging from the sky. They were quietly suspended in the air, with the sword tips pointing forward, aiming at the Saint of Steel, the Illusion Bell, and the Sword Emperor in front of them. It was like a silent army, waiting for the battle to begin.
"So, are you ready, Rats of the Society?"
As Xiao Hei spoke, the next moment, the sharp blade turned into heavy rain and fell from the sky.
