Chapter 213 Star Enchantment
Poluo pricked up his ears, and the sound of horse hooves behind him became closer and closer.
But closer, there is the cold murderous intent from King Sri!
It's like a sharp blade, one inch by one, slowly approaching...
In this strange fear, Poluo suddenly remembered the headless soldiers of Luoxing City that he had seen before in front of the ruins of the city.
"But fortunately, Luoxing City is coming, and Luoxing City is not destroyed in the hands of King Sri, which means that there must be some means that the Kingdom of Sri fears in Luoxing City."
Not far away, the defenders of Luoxing City have appeared in their sight.
Like the corpses I saw in the destruction city, each of them was wearing silver-white armor. Poluo noticed that there was a silver light spot on the forehead of each of these defenders in Luoxing City.
The shape is like a star.
But what puzzled Poluo the most was that in front of these Xingluo City defenders, there was a silver light curtain. The color and aura of this light curtain were very similar to Lake's Star Killing Sword - like a starlight condensed into shape!
"Is the layer of magic protection in front of me a layer of glimmering light?"
As they got closer and closer to the Xingluo City defenders, the defenders responded quickly and raised their weapons in an orderly manner, with a cold light shining and ready for battle.
Their eyes were full of vigilance, as if they were facing an invading beast, tensing every nerve.
"Oz, where are the signs you mentioned before?"
The horse Oz rode was very special and could even rush to the front of the team.
And this card is because several people did not contact Luoxing City but still chose to cross the defense line of the Sri Kingdom.
"Of course, I know."
Oz said as he reached into his arms and took out a token engraved with silver patterns, which were painted on it, a starry sky, and a simple painting of looking up with a mask.
"This is the king's seal!"
Oz raised the token with one hand and shouted loudly, "I will return to Luoxing City today, follow the king's order to seek allies, and come with Goethe and other envoys. Now the army of the Kingdom of Sri is huge, and we need to work together to help each other, so that we can hope to resolve the difficulties of Xingxing City, and even counterattack against the Kingdom of Sri and end this battle!"
After hearing Oz's words, the defenders of Luoxing City were stunned.
A general in charge narrowed his eyes and looked at the token, looking a little surprised. He raised his hand and pressed it down, causing the soldiers in Xingluocheng behind him to put down the bows and arrows in their hands.
"That's... the King's Seal?"
The general began to shout something backward, pointing at Lake and the others.
Soon, a man in a silver robe came on a horse with a silver necklace around his neck.
Seeing that the soldiers in Luoxing City were no longer guarding themselves and others, Oz rode his horse toward the protective cover where the starlight gathered, and reached his hand towards the silver light curtain.
But the next moment, he touched the light curtain, like a transparent wall.
"The pursuers of the Sri Kingdom have arrived behind us. Please open the barrier and let us enter..."
Oz saluted and said anxiously.
He knew that Xingluo City had some kind of barrier, and he knew that these barriers could be opened freely, allowing his own people to enter freely, and rejected the Sri people.
But the commander of Xingluo City did not immediately open the barrier, but frowned and argued with the man in the silver robe beside him.
"His token is indeed real. I have seen it. It is indeed the token that was held by the special envoy appointed by the old king, so they will not be Sri's people and should be let in."
The general said anxiously, but the man in the silver robe on the side just glanced at Lake and others outside the barrier, shook his head, and remained indifferent.
"No, now is a special period. The prince's order is not allowed to cross the barrier anymore - what if the Kingdom of Sri killed the special and obtained the token of the special envoy?"
"No."
The general glanced at Oz, who was holding the token, and said again, "I have seen this man. He is indeed the person appointed by the old king, and he will not be a traitor..."
"But I am His Highness the Prince's man. The old king no longer controls this battle. It is His Highness the Prince who protects Xingluo City."
The man in silver robe shook his head again, and the information he revealed in his words made everyone outside the barrier feel chill.
"But if those Sri people catch up, they will die—"
"If you die, you will die. No reinforcements are of no use. Our victory is only on His Highness the Prince. In any case, I will not violate His Highness the Prince's orders."
The man in silver robe did not change his face, but he had already turned around and was about to leave, "I won't make trouble."
"Wait a minute!"
Oz's face showed a trace of despair filled with anger, and raised his hand to pat the light curtain, "I remember being able to open a small part and let us in--"
"It may have been possible before, but according to the orders of His Highness the Prince, it is no longer possible."
The man in silver robe paused for a moment, raised his hand and pointed to the other side, in the direction of the Lancao Valley, "There are many mountains there, you can walk from there, maybe you can survive."
Poluo and his men have investigated Lancao Valley and also knew that the blockade was laid out by the Sri Kingdom there.
If the search starts with the density of Esri's army, perhaps except for Laik and Poluo, there may be a few people from the Sadi Kingdom, and the rest of the ordinary people, there is probably no hope of surviving.
Even more likely, they are to be killed one by one on the way to escape.
"You are killing your own people!"
Oz was even more furious at this time.
It can be seen that there are too many accidents that have exceeded his plan along the way, not to mention that now, the close end has become a dead end because of some short-term change!
"What to do?"
Lake also exchanged glances with Polo, and behind him, a Goethe warrior who was following quickly had already shown a desperate look at this time.
"I might be able..."
And just then, Lake gritted his teeth and suddenly said, "This layer of light curtain seems to have the same power as my Star Killing Sword. I feel that I may be able to control it to a certain extent."
"Can you control the barrier of Xingluocheng?"
After hearing this, Poluo was stunned for a moment. He looked at the silver-white light curtain close at hand and stretched out his claws to touch the surface.
A touch of cold touch was like touching an ice surface.
This barrier is slightly different from the energy of magic, heaven, and hell. In short, with Poluo's current magical attainments, it is still impossible to break it in a short period of time.
"If you control it, it shouldn't cause any damage, right?"
Poluo asked again, if he recklessly controlled the power and let the shield protecting Xingluo City be destroyed - he would probably have become the "traitor" of the Sri Kingdom.
"No, I can sense the essence of this energy through the Star Killing Sword..."
Lake stared at the streaming barrier in front of him and continued, "I can control the energy close to us to retreat, revealing a small hole that can make people enter and exit.
Then, after we go in, I can re-control the hole and close it without damaging this barrier. ”
"Okay, then give it a try."
When Poluo heard this, he responded decisively. He knew that Lake was not arrogant and that what he said would only be said after confirming it.
The next moment, Lake raised his hand and pulled out the Star Killing Sword from his waist, and the sword body quickly shone with silver light.
This time, whether it was the guards of Luoxing City inside the barrier or the people outside the barrier, they all saw it clearly—
The starlight emitted by the sword of Lake Star Killing is exactly the same as the light curtain of the Star Lost City barrier!
Lake pointed the sword flat and gently tapped the sword tip to the surface of the barrier.
In an instant, at the point where the sword tip contacted, layers of war-like microwaves swept open on the smooth barrier surface, and an oval hole slowly appeared in the center of the ripple.
"You guys, how can you--"
At this time, the previous general of Xingluo City opened his eyes widened. All the soldiers of Xingluo City who saw this scene opened their mouths and looked stunned. No one thought of this scene. After all, most of the time, this seemingly thin barrier is indestructible!
They raised the sword in their hands, but didn't know if they should stop it.
"What's going on!? Is there a fluctuation in the Fanxing barrier? Are they the damn Sri people..."
The man in silver robe who had just left rushed over again.
After seeing the starlight on Lake's body and the sudden void appearing on the barrier, his face stagnated, and his previous cold expression faded, replaced by extreme shock.
"You..."
After that, he finally made some decision.
Holding his hand towards the silver necklace on his neck, the next moment, the string of necklaces lit up at the same time, and the lit light quickly opened a regular door on the barrier.
"You guys come in."
The man in silver robe said as he looked at General Xingluo City beside him and said again in an unspoken tone, "Don't let King Sri kill one of them, you take people out and block Sri's army."
"Yes."
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
The general of the Xingluo City defender responded in a deep voice without thinking. He waved his hand and behind him, the Xingluo City defenders who had already prepared had turned over their horses, raised their spears and shields, passed through the barrier, and welcomed the chasing Sri army!
Poluo noticed that even if there were no empty places, these defenders could pass through the barrier freely.
After leaving the barrier, a faint silver light appeared on them—
It's exactly the same as when Lake fought through the Star Killing Sword!
"Louxing City... Star Killing Sword... are all the same power?"
Poluo narrowed his eyes.
"Since you have come in, just retreat to the back soon. Otherwise, if King Sri launches an attack, I may not be able to protect you!"
The man in silver robe said sternly, but his tone was still much softer than at the beginning.
For the others, just a little glance, more attention was placed entirely on Lake.
Or, above the starlight on Shilek's body.
Poluo looked behind him with some concern, and the ominous oppression given by King Sri was still not over.
The defenders of Xingluo City had already passed the last person and blocked the troops of the Sri Kingdom.
And the military front of the Sri Kingdom still had no intention of stopping.
Through the silver light of the star barrier, Poluo's eyes narrowed. He saw King Sri's hand in the Sri army formation, holding the hilt of the sword, gently pulling out the sword out!
"Clang——"
In an instant, the entire space seemed to stagnate instantly, and the colors between heaven and earth fell into dark smoke at this moment. Under the dark illusion, blood light emerged behind the Sri Army, and the sky cracked - the sharp sound of swords and guns was twisted into the thorn of sharp claws scratching the glass...
In the mirage of hell, King Sri's long sword in his hand, and the sword body was covered with blood, making it difficult to see its true appearance.
It fell in the sky, and the warning sign in Poluo's heart reached its extreme at this time--
After a scream, curse, curse, or whimpering at death...the illusion began to fade, and King Sri took his sword and put it into the sheath.
Poluo saw that the sparkling star barrier, which had just been shimmering, became dark at this time.
But its distance from itself has been shortened!
This also means that... the Xingluo City territory it protects has been reduced by another piece.
Outside the star barrier, all the soldiers of Xingluo City who attacked fell to the ground, blood pouring on their heads, and their heads rolled on the ground at this moment.
Just like what Poluo saw before in front of the ruined city.
"King Sri, he—"
Lake also looked shocked. Although several people had imagined such a scene in the ruined city before, they saw it with their own eyes and experienced a fear that could not be confronted with it!
"Yes, this is King Sri, so I said that no matter how many reinforcements and allies come, it is meaningless."
In front of him, the man in silver robe said coldly, "If there was no star barrier, you and I would have lost their heads here!"
"So, in order to save us, you let the defenders... go..."
Lake knew it was a bit bad to say this, but the face of the silver-robed man in front of him seemed to be without grief, "Send to death?"
"Send to death? No, you people are not as valuable as any warrior in Xingluo City."
When the man in silver robe heard this, he sneered and shook his head, "What they did was to block King Sri as quickly as possible and let him draw his sword in advance.
In this way, the loss of the star barrier will be smaller. ”
"But they didn't even start the battle, they already..."
"No, they will not die under the protection of the Son of Stars."
The man in silver robe pointed not far away. Behind the defense line of Xingluo City, a silver-white city appeared in front of him, and that was Luoxing City.
And a new team of cavalry came from the direction of Luoxing City.
Following the direction pointed by the man in the silver robe, Poluo and Lek saw the general in front. They were surprised to find that the general's appearance was the one who had just rushed out of the star barrier to fight!
At this time, there was no blood on his body, and the same was true for the other soldiers behind him.
"Why... aren't they dead?"
"Under the protection of the Son of Stars, the souls of the warriors will not be taken away by the minions of hell. They will gain new bodies in Xingluo City, healthier and stronger."
The man in silver robes led Lake and his party into the city, and the guards around him made way.
Poluo saw that the entire Xingluo City's buildings and walls showed a mirror-like silver color, and the closer they were to the city, the darker the color of the sky became.
But the sky did not appear dim, the sunlight disappeared, and the stars were shining brightly, and the nebula flashed, weaving a net of light on the sky.
"In the prophecy of the stars, King Sri will be killed by the starlight in the city of Luoxing in twenty-four days, and that day is the fifteenth birthday of our prince, the son of Star, and his power will rise again."
The man in silver robe looked at the stars in the sky and put a mirror-like mask on his face. His voice became a little dull under the obstruction of the mask. "So, we don't need any allies or help, we just need to wait - the day of victory."
"Prophecy?"
Lake was stunned for a moment, "Can anyone really see through the future?"
"You fools naturally won't understand.
For the god hanging in the sky, everything in time has long been doomed. ”
Take everyone through the streets of Xingluo City and enter the entrance of the inner city palace. The entire palace group looks even more dazzling, and the starry sky on the dome is brighter than seen elsewhere.
The unblocked starlight was reflected by the silver buildings around it, like mercury streaming light.
The man in silver robe waved his hand, and several guards stepped forward and stopped the others behind Lake.
"What does this mean?"
Lake was stunned for a moment, and Oz and others behind him also showed doubts, "We are the envoys who formed an alliance to resist the Kingdom of Sri..."
"I said that we Luoxing City do not need any useless reinforcements or allies."
The man in silver robe said in a deep voice again, the surrounding palace guards were also wearing silver masks, with no expression on them, only the stars reflected.
"You can get here just because His Highness wants to see you alone."
The man in silver robe looked towards Lake, "That's all."
