"Uh oh~~~huh..."
A huge dark cloud was gathering over the monster's head, and the terrifying roar in the wind was everywhere.
“Swoosh~” “Puff~”
Black blood rushed down like rain, and the strange visions in the sky and the strange sounds around all came to an abrupt end.
The aura of the "devil" dissipated like melting ice and snow.
Zhao Kai fell to the ground at once, and the magic steel hand cannons in his hands slipped off. Fox and the others also collapsed to the ground like dead dogs, breathing in the fresh air in big gulps.
The pressure brought by these dozen strange and powerful monsters is no less than a protracted life-and-death battle.
With the battlefield as the center, large tracts of woodland around it were completely destroyed, with countless broken trees, cracks in the ground, and large craters caused by bombardment.
Just at a glance it is not difficult to imagine how intense the previous battle was.
Except for Zhao Kai who had known Hilbert for a long time and was happy for him, the other six newcomers, even the four who collapsed on the ground, were all so excited that they wanted to shout out.
Only now did Fox gasp for breath and look at Zhao Kai and Hilbert in the distance in amazement.
"Captain, it's Baron Lionheart!!! We are so lucky to witness the Baron's awakening with our own eyes!!! He is so powerful..."
"Yes, yes..."
The only female team member who was still able to move pinched her thigh tightly, trying not to lose her composure.
"Hey, I have an acquaintance in the editorial office..."
Zhao Kai whispered to himself in the back.
In the distance, Hilbert's body was trembling slightly. His newly awakened magic power was almost exhausted, and the overdrawn physical and mental strength also made him slightly dizzy.
There was a subtle heat current from the Lionheart King's sword that continuously flowed into his body, preventing Hilbert from fainting after killing the demon.
The black blood of the monster slid down the sword one by one, without a single drop of blood stained it.
The Book of Oath in the distance gradually turned into powder in his eyes.
Hilbert understood that the purpose of the book's existence was to wait for the moment when the descendants of the Chakus family would kill the devil. It had completed its mission.
A happy smile gradually appeared on his face.
"Father, ancestors... I did it!!!"
Buzz~~
The air around them vibrated with the trembling and buzzing of the Lionheart King's sword.
…
Hilbert and others carried the wounded away, while Sheng Ling and Qin Xiaoxia followed slowly in the distance to prevent the awakened Baron Lionheart from encountering a powerful monster and dying when he was at his weakest.
The eight association members in front, regardless of whether they were able to move or not, remained vigilant. Even though they were carrying the wounded, their superhuman stamina made them run quite fast, but it was obviously far behind Zhao Kai's extreme speed racing.
It would probably only take half an hour to drive the rest of the way, but the injured and disabled ran for nearly two hours before they met a convoy of British Army patrol soldiers. They were relieved to get a ride.
This distance is already within the control range of the main force of the British Army. The density of sky and ground reconnaissance is quite high, and the firepower sweep is never slackened. It can be said that there will be no monsters that can threaten the eight people. In addition, Hilbert has slowly recovered some of his physical strength through the Vermillion Fruit and the Flower of Life within two hours, so he can rest assured.
Qin Xiaoxia and Sheng Ling stopped there and did not continue to follow.
Watching the convoy going away, the Holy Spirit stood behind Qin Xiaoxia. The light and radiance in the corners of his eyes showed that he was not calm.
"Sage, you once said that the real Lionheart Sword had long been destroyed in the long river of history. But after witnessing the awakening of Baron Chakus's bloodline, I believe that the Lionheart Sword has not been destroyed. It was born from the Chakus family and is part of their bloodline power."
"As long as the bloodline of the Chakus family is not cut off, given a good weapon, coupled with their faith and oath spirit, the Lionheart Sword will be reborn!"
Hearing the Holy Spirit's sigh, Qin Xiaoxia was filled with mixed emotions.
It was worth it that he had previously acted as the devil, and that he had been recognized by Kingsmere the Lionheart and Sword Master, Hilbert, and that he had even shamelessly made a cameo appearance as the ancestor of the Chakus family to pretend to be cool and educate his descendants.
"Yes, as a sage of the dawn, I am not omniscient and omnipotent. Perhaps, the Lionheart Sword is just one of the symbols of the Chakus family's spirit. As long as Baron Lionheart is still here, the Lionheart Sword will live forever."
The Holy Spirit bowed his head slightly and saluted Qin Xiaoxia.
"You are too modest, sage!"
Qin Xiaoxia smiled at it. It was a good feeling to occasionally witness a well-deserved hero being born in his hands.
'No one is born great!'
Of course, it is equally important that the research on mental power, because of Hilbert's awakening, achieved success beyond his imagination.
…
Just one day later, "The Secret History of the Association" updated the new chapter "Awakening in Front of the Sword of the Lionheart King" with superb efficiency.
And within just a few days, the news spread throughout the Dawn Association through association members looking up magic patterns and information and spreading it word by word of mouth.
It is both an honor and a pressure for Hilbert, but compared with the heavy burden on his shoulders in the past, he is now confident enough to live up to this honorary title.
I have to say that Zhong Bolun and the editors who wrote "The Secret History of the Association" are really a group of talents. Qin Xiaoxia even thinks that the live version he watched was not as exciting as what they wrote, but after reading it, he still had a feeling that it was "well-reasoned and convincing."
This will naturally have a very positive promoting effect on the entire Dawn Association.
…
Gansu Province, China’s No. 2 R&D super base.
A large number of high-end scientific talents gather here to jointly develop the latest technologies and serve as the main force of cutting-edge quantum technology for China within the World Alliance.
Although the earth is now being attacked by the tide of darkness, human society has maintained relatively intact production capacity due to proper response.
But no one within the World Alliance, including the Dawn Association and major countries, dared to let down their guard.
The expert team combined the current state of the world with Dawn's data and came up with a very calm and objective analysis.
The current situation is because humans have mastered the power of technology. If it had happened in ancient times, the world would have definitely been in chaos. In ancient times, there were even terrifying creatures like the alien ancient demon Jilian, and there is no guarantee that they will not appear in the future.
However, thanks to the control of the situation, not only the shelters around the world and the super bases of major countries, but also the top research facilities in conventional cities, except for the occupied areas due to force majeure, are able to operate perfectly.
R&D Super Base No. 2 is equivalent to a hub, leading the joint progress of research teams from all over China.
As a requirement for joint research and development, this part of the military optical cable was restored by the engineering corps with the highest priority so that research teams in various places would not be out of touch with the overall progress and plan.
Huang Jiutian was lying on the back seat of a jeep at this time, occupying a row of seats alone. The front driver's seat and the co-pilot's seat were both his direct subordinates, two men and women in black military uniforms.
The girl's name is Luo Wei. She has a trendy pigtail with a fluffy tail. Her soft long hair is wrapped around her neck and hangs on her chest. The driver is a capable middle-aged man named Lu Gang.
They are considered Jiutian's old subordinates. No one knows when it started, perhaps when Jiutian's rank reached colonel, the superiors began to equip Jiutian with personal guards.
God have mercy on him. Huang Jiutian is very clear about his position on the official list of evolvers in China. With the title of the strongest perception type at the world's national level, does he still need someone to protect him?
Jiutian knew what the higher-ups were planning. Even Tao Xingzhi teased him privately, "Who told you to be single?"
As the only official magic awakener in China and a role model figure, Huang Jiutian's lifelong affairs are no longer a concern for his parents.
Scientists at the Special Security Group's directly affiliated research institute, which has mostly moved into the super base, even said that there is an absolute high probability that Colonel Huang's genes will give rise to an evolver.
Luo Wei has long admired Captain Huang, who is gentle, handsome, considerate and powerful. Everyone in the special security team knows this. The higher-ups directly appointed her as Huang Jiutian's personal bodyguard, which is simply Sima Zhao's intention.
As the saying goes, it’s easy for a girl to chase a boy. Even Tao Xingzhi wanted to encourage Luo Wei directly, “Comrade, you have to work harder!”
Well, Jiutian was also very clear that the higher-ups did have this intention, but after all, free love is important nowadays, so they didn't mention it explicitly. Fortunately, they didn't directly arrange two female senior agents to be his personal guards, but instead sent in Lu Gang.
At this moment, the jeep was one of a group of cars in a convoy. On the road, the once barren Gobi desert around it had been covered with green, and towering trees had been erected in many places.
This is a team of escort vehicles. The large trucks in the middle section are carrying the heavyweight scientific research results of Base No. 2. The importance of the research was so great that the central government directly dispatched Huang Jiutian.
