Anvimar Province.
The sun had already sunk below the horizon, the sky was rapidly darkening, and the temperature was plummeting.
On a gravel road beside a highland ice lake, a Black Stone car slowly stopped.
On the right side of the road is an endless lake, and on the left side is an endless grassland with occasional crooked trees, which are perfect places to hide and ambush.
The black spots in the distant sky have turned into two very obvious large airships, less than five kilometers away.
The black rock fuel has been completely exhausted and it is no longer possible to fight the airship in the wilderness.
Inside the car, Rosen looked at the dense grass on the left that was more than a meter high, and whispered to Alena, "Next, it will be a real challenge."
Aliena knew the underlying meaning of this.
Even though her soul had reached the pinnacle of the Ten Rings, she still felt a slight shudder, because this was her first time participating in hunting such a powerful void creature.
If she succeeds in the end, her name will shine brightly in the history books of the Republic of Nahuatia and will be remembered by the people of the Republic from generation to generation, becoming an indelible monument in the history of the Republic.
For the guardian mage, this is the highest honor in life!
At this moment, Alena's thoughts were very pure. As long as the plan could succeed, she would sacrifice her soul without hesitation when necessary.
Through the soul connection, Rosen clearly felt the other party's unshakable belief.
He was secretly shocked.
The most outstanding figures in a country are always ready to sacrifice, so it is no wonder that they can gather the beliefs of countless mortals and create a great power that can shock gods and demons.
"Click~"
Rosen opened the car door and walked to the lakeside. He washed his face with the cold lake water and took a deep breath of the damp and cold air of the plateau at dusk. He immediately felt refreshed.
There were footsteps beside me. It was Alena.
This guardian mage has thick long flaxen hair and well-proportioned facial features. He is not beautiful, but very attractive.
She was wearing a plain grey dress, the hem of which was about ten centimeters below her knees. She wore cotton tights underneath to facilitate movement, and a pair of warm deerskin boots.
Although he is in his early thirties and his temperament shows that he is very experienced, he still retains a bit of innocence.
It is not the innocence of a young girl, but the innocence of pursuing magic and faith.
She squatted beside Rosen and washed her face with ice water. She looked up at the airship that was still approaching and estimated that it would take another five or six minutes to arrive.
"Mage Rosen, it is rumored that a demon died in the Druitan plane. Is it related to you?"
However, she used honorifics for Rosen because Rosen was a legendary wizard.
At this point, Rosen also admitted it frankly.
"Yes, I killed him, but I didn't kill him alone. I had the help of many brave warriors."
"very nice!"
Aliena's face showed a mixture of admiration and relief.
"It's great to hear such good news from other planes. It's really exciting."
"This makes me feel that Nahuat is not fighting alone, and we mortals are not ants that can be ravaged by demons."
Rosen fully understood the guardian mage's feelings.
He smiled and said, "I feel the same as you. When I first learned about the existence of demons, I was very depressed, but when I heard about the deeds of the Republic of Nahuat, I was deeply inspired."
"I was able to successfully kill the demon, in large part because of the knowledge shared by Archmage Naya, and a lot of my courage came from Nawat."
He looked up at the sky. It was cloudless and the stars were shining brightly in the dim sky.
"I also believe that mortals will not always be mortals."
"One day, the wisdom of countless mortals will come together to form a great force that will make all the void gods and demons famous and terrified."
"One day, we will have the wisdom and power to expedition into the void and hunt down void life."
Aliena's heart was shaken when she heard this: "Is this really possible?"
Rosen nodded: "I think so."
The mortal leaders of this world can live for thousands of years. As long as they take the right path, they can keep going all the way without going through the same old troubles.
Therefore, the speed of social development will be much faster than in his previous life. During his lifetime, he will definitely see the emergence of many magical creations that are unimaginable on Earth.
By then, the demons that now scare mortals will become an insignificant term in history, just like the man-eating beasts on the earth, which will eventually become protected animals.
When the two of them were talking, they did not hide anything and were easily sensed by the powerful magician.
Then, a sound came from a distant airship.
"Rosen, Alena, you two can't even see tomorrow's sunrise, yet you still have the mind to dream about thousands of years from now. How ridiculous!"
As soon as Aliena heard the voice, she recognized the identity of the speaker, and a trace of anger suddenly appeared on her face.
"Seglin, you have betrayed the people's trust. Your name will be on the Republic's pillar of shame and you will be cursed for a thousand years, ten thousand years!"
For a native Nahuatl, these words were extremely devastating.
Master Seglin fell silent.
This reaction made Rosen's heart slightly moved: "It seems that this Seglin is not completely corrupt."
But there are always shameless people in the world.
Another voice came: "Aleena, under the leadership of the master, it is questionable whether Nahuat can survive for 10 years, how can it survive for thousands of years?"
It's another fallen guardian mage, Dato.
Aliena was full of fire: "A legendary demon dares to say such big words, and there are people in this world who believe such words."
"Sure enough, a fool and a fool have always been a perfect match."
These two sentences made Dato angry and embarrassed.
"Aleena, we have the legendary power given by the master. It doesn't matter if you are stubborn now, but when I torture your soul later, don't be unable to help but beg for mercy."
Aliena's eyes showed pity: "Ah~ Dato, your family is all shamed because of you."
At this time, two airships had flown nearby and began to land.
Rosen immediately used the Eye of Legend to carefully check the number of attackers.
"There are 50 people on one airship, and 100 people on two airships. Each person has at least 7th level of magic power and carries powerful attack magic weapons."
"Besides that, they must have been granted the power of the void by the Shadow Lord. Especially Seglin and Dato, they are very difficult to deal with."
With a head-on attack, they could certainly kill many pursuers, but it would also consume a huge amount of energy, and there was a high possibility that they would perish together with these pursuers.
The problem is, there is no point in killing as many pursuers as possible, because their real target is the Shadow Lord hiding in the void!
So Rosen stood up and pointed to the dense grass: "Let's go, we can use the grass to play hide-and-seek with the pursuers, maybe we can escape."
Then he switched to soul communication: "Remember, don't leave me five meters away, my destiny spell will be able to dissolve the attacks on both of us."
They still maintained their soul connection, so the power connection was also maintained, which allowed Rosen to not worry too much about mana consumption.
Rosen used the original mana of Legend 2 to release the 9th-level natural spell "Son of Nature" from the Mighty Father for himself and Alena.
This spell will grant both people incredible stamina and agility.
Then, the two of them flashed and entered the endless grassland by the lake.
Less than ten seconds after they entered, the pursuers arrived.
The images of Seglin and Dato changed slightly, and their eyes were covered by a ball of jumping black flames.
This grants them the ability to see through mortal matter.
As soon as they looked, they saw two people running wildly in the grass, less than 200 meters away.
Dato had gray hair and looked to be about thirty-five or thirty-six years old.
He chuckled, raised a spiral-shaped magical weapon in his hand, whispered a few words, and poured a magical power that emitted the starry night into it.
"Taste the curse of imprisonment from the Lord of Shadows."
The star-like light on the magic weapon flashed and disappeared, and according to the effect, the two people in front should be restrained by a force and unable to move.
But the magic power was consumed, the light flashed, but the target was not affected and continued to run happily.
On the other side, Rosen was secretly shocked: "It's worthy of the power of Legend 6. It consumes 3 tubes of my mana in one go!"
If it weren't for the additional power of protective faith provided by Alena, he really wouldn't have been able to hold on.
On the other side, Datto subconsciously looked at the magic weapon in his hand, and couldn't help but wonder if the owner had deceived him and gave him a defective product.
Just as he was wondering, a voice came from his mind: "Chase him, keep attacking him, and consume his fate spell!"
It is the voice of the Lord of Shadows.
Dato was also one of the top mages. He immediately understood the reason and shouted, "Chase!"
He caught up first.
For some reason, Seglin slowed down a little, as if hesitating.
So, 100 people chased into the bushes.
While chasing, they kept shooting at the target with the muskets they carried.
"Bang~~Bang~~Bang~~"
The strange thing is that even though they had a hundred automatic muskets, the final firing sounds were sparse, here and there, like constipation.
Either it jams, misfires, or explodes.
After chasing for a while, the number of casualties due to accidental explosion of the gun was as high as 18.
Dato couldn't help but curse: "Isn't this destiny spell too weird?!"
There were 100 of them, shooting at the same time, and he thought it was understandable that the other side used the spell of fate to interfere with two or three, or even four or five, or even a dozen.
Now he directly interfered with 100 people, forcing them to become constipated. Isn't this spell control too terrible? Not only did he think so, but Alena also felt so.
She even suspected that Rosen was the mortal substitute of the Void God and Demon, because only the Void God and Demon had such a high level of magic control.
Rosen immediately learned about Alena's thoughts through the soul connection and explained, "This is because I have developed a new magic technique."
"I'll explain the specific principles to you in detail after the battle is over."
Most of Alena's doubts were immediately dispelled, and she soon realized that if Rosen was a substitute for the gods and demons, he would not have been restricted from obtaining his source of power by the Lord of Shadows.
As a result, the remaining doubts were dissipated, and he became very interested in the "new magic skills" mentioned by Rosen.
The effect is really powerful.
It feels like if they just run away, the pursuers will be wiped out.
Rosen naturally sensed her thoughts, and with a deep "bitter smile" on his face, he said: "Master Alena, this will consume a great deal of energy and mana."
Aliena sensed Rosen's thoughts and immediately cooperated, with despair on her face: "Master Rosen, you must hold on!"
The conversation between the two was immediately noticed by the pursuers behind them.
Dato was overjoyed: "Attack! Keep attacking! If the musket is broken, use magic to consume the target's mana!"
"Don't be stingy with the power the master has given you. Use it all!"
Then, various attacks were thrown at Rosen.
Finally, Rosen and Alena stopped running.
The two ran for more than ten kilometers in one breath and finally stopped in a low-lying area.
The two men were gasping for breath, sweating all over, their faces pale, and they stood back to back.
Dato and Seglin were also exhausted, and various inexplicable accidents caused a large number of combat casualties.
There were more than 100 pursuers, but only less than 30 people were left.
But their situation seems to be much better.
Dato walked up first, sneering, "Run~~ Why don't you run anymore? Have you run out of mana?"
He seemed to want to torture his opponent.
But Seglin strode forward.
"Stop talking nonsense and kill them quickly. We still have a lot of things to take care of."
As he spoke, he raised the musket that he had been reluctant to use, pointed it at Rosen, and was about to pull the trigger.
At the same time, Rosen clearly felt that a huge monster was approaching from the void.
This huge monster stared at everything that happened in the mortal world through the magic ring. At the same time, it increased the strength of the "Void Confinement" to the limit, completely cutting off the source of power for Rosen's Soul Burning Secret Technique.
Obviously, this 'giant creature' is the Lord of Shadows.
He cooperated with the mortal believers to complete the final kill on Rosen!
Rosen knew the time was ripe.
He shouted, "Now!"
Before he finished speaking, an extremely powerful wave of force suddenly surged around the low-lying area.
It was the Blood Soul Corps from Anweimar Province! Time was too short, so naturally the other forces of the Republic were too late to provide support.
Even if support is possible, mobilizing forces across provinces will definitely alert the Lord of Shadows.
But the power of the Blood Soul Legion in the province is enough to set traps.
This trap was coordinated by the outgoing Archmage Naya who was far away in the capital, and the new Archmage Sassmar secretly mobilized and arranged it, and quietly ambushed here three hours ago! And all of Rosen's previous actions were to attract the Lord of Shadows here.
At this moment, the Blood Soul suddenly attacked.
By borrowing the Republic's protective faith, a demon cage was successfully created in the void! (End of this chapter)
