Chapter 330 The Afterglow of the Setting Sun

In an unaffected residential building not far from the battlefield, the original owner of the house seemed to have left in a hurry. The firewood in the stove had already dried up the thick soup in the pot, giving off a burst of burnt smell.The vanity mirror that was originally placed beside the bed in the bedroom was moved to the window at some point, refracting the sunlight from outside into the bedroom, making the whole room warm and inviting to fall asleep.

The sunlight in the mirror suddenly dimmed, and then a human-shaped luminous body quietly emerged from the refracted sunlight, and fell headlong on the soft bed.The dazzling light gradually dissipated, revealing the scarred figure of the girl.

The fluffy pillow let Tiana's tense nerves relax a little. She held her breath and listened to the sound outside the window.There seemed to be a roar in the distance, although it wasn't very clear, but it was enough for Tiana to confirm that the master puppeteer didn't come after her, and she was really relieved.

Tiana didn't think she could escape the puppeteer's clutches with this little trick of her own, but she had to bet that the chance would always be won by herself rather than handouts from others.She bet that the puppeteer would quit, and that she, as Diana's ally, would be protected by the Northwind family.This possibility is actually not very reliable, but fortunately, the puppeteer seems to have encountered other troubles, and it is obviously impossible to focus on himself in a short time.

No matter how powerful the gold rank powerhouse is, he is not a god after all. As long as the puppeteer diverts his attention and erases the traces on his side in a low-key way, he is not afraid of being approached by others.

After relaxing, the girl felt the sharp pain in her abdomen again.In just a few short breaths, the quilt under her body was soaked with blood.Although the temperature in the room was not low due to sunlight, her hands and feet began to turn cold, which is a typical symptom of excessive blood loss.

The vitality of the strong gold rank is stronger than that of cockroaches. Even if the blood on the body dries up, they may not necessarily die. Even if the body dies, the soul can continue to survive.But the silver rank does not have such a favor. Except for very few special cases, the vast majority of silver rank powerhouses are still mortals. Even if their strength has reached the threshold of the gold rank, they still cannot get rid of it. The basic law of birth, old age, sickness and death.

If it were El who had two holes in her stomach, it wouldn't be a problem, but as a spellcaster, Tiana herself was weak and didn't have a particularly effective recovery ability.She endured the severe pain and sensed the situation in her body. It was not particularly dangerous, because it was a penetrating injury, so it did not deteriorate to the extent of extensive internal bleeding. As for the broken ribs and damaged internal organs, they were not particularly serious. As long as it is treated in time it is not a problem.

The question is where to find "timely treatment"?
The blue veil, a magic robe inherited from Archmage Doria's mage tower, was once a well-known legendary item in history, but it is still doomed by the gold rank powerhouse. The protective magic is all shattered, and the magic pattern array drawn is all overloaded. If no professional can be found to repair it, I am afraid it will be scrapped from then on.

Compared with the physical pain, the loss of this magic robe made Tiana feel more heartbroken, which meant that her strength would drop by at least one-fifth.Fortunately, the Arc Smasher was put away by her in advance and was not affected, otherwise this adventure would really be worth the candle.

A sense of tiredness spread from her mind, and the girl knew that this was a very dangerous signal. If she fell asleep right away, she might not be able to sleep at all.The dark experience of struggling among the dead for three months allowed her to accumulate sufficient experience and lessons in this regard.

Gritting her teeth and turning over to sit up, the girl tore off a seemingly clean sheet from the bed, took off her magic robe and began to bandage the wound herself.Judging from the scale and interior of this building, the owner should not be an ordinary civilian, at least he should have a big family and the living conditions are not too bad, otherwise he must not be able to afford high-end furniture like a dressing table. Generally speaking, People like this will start to pay attention to hygiene issues.

But even if the bed sheet was not clean, there was nothing she could do about it. She had no other choice now.

Because of her rich experience, she is extremely proficient in her technique, but the girl doesn't think this is a reason to be happy. Although there is a healing potion in her pocket, she dare not take it now.The principle of the drug is to stimulate the body's potential to accelerate recovery, but the side effect will cause a slight paralysis of the nerves.This kind of paralysis is insignificant to ordinary people, but it can affect the mental power of the caster.Without guaranteeing one's own relative safety, the consequence of rashly using drugs is tantamount to handing one's fate into the hands of the enemy.

Instead of pinning her hopes on the enemy's negligence, the girl believed in her own will.

After simply bandaging the wound, the girl quickly packed up the blood-soaked sheets, stuffed them into the closet, and then took out a bottle of potion that smelled like roasted pigskin, and sprayed it evenly in the room.No matter how weak the magic fluctuations, or sounds and smells, in fact, they can't escape the perception of the golden rank level, but such a powerful perception also has flaws - the massive amount of information collected will affect his judgment.

As long as he cleans up the traces and disappears from everyone, even a puppeteer can't lock the target in the ruins of the city full of injuries.He is a magic swordsman, or a puppet master. He may have irresistible power, but he may not be able to track traces as a professional hunter like El.

Thinking of El, the girl's heart moved.When North herself was entangled with the Sect of the Damned, she had been on the verge of extinction many times like now, but this time she didn't put all her eggs in one basket as before.Perhaps it was because the fire of hope in her heart had not been extinguished, so she chose this passive response of hiding and waiting for rescue without thinking.She subconsciously believed that the man would definitely come back to save herself.

The world outside the window has long since returned to calm, and the wind and sand in the sky have gradually calmed down.Tiana didn't know how the situation had changed, and out of caution, she still didn't dare to use any investigative methods that might cause magic fluctuations.Although she had clearly stood on Diana's side, the girl understood the evil nature of those nobles better than anyone else, otherwise she would not have designed the 3-minute reversal trap.Neither Swordsman nor the royal family can be trusted, and there is only one person she can rely on in this city.

"How long is this bastard going to play..." the girl curled up at the foot of the bed and couldn't help but whisper to herself.

I don't know how long it took, maybe only three to five minutes, Tiana suddenly raised her head, realizing that she had just fallen into a coma unconsciously.Fortunately, this kind of coma is only a shallow rest, and has not escaped her mental control.

What woke Tiana was the sound from the stairs outside, almost as faint as a cat's footsteps, but enough to alert her.

The girl pulled out the Arc Smasher calmly, held her breath, and aimed the crystal at the top of the staff at the door.Stored in that crystal is an instant lethal spell, enough to level an entire building.It has to be said that this kind of tactic of killing each other is more like the style of "Dancing Light Snake".

The faint footsteps stopped at the door, the girl took a deep breath slowly, and clenched the staff in her hand.

"Knock, knock, knock..." Although the sudden knock on the door was not loud, it startled the tense girl and almost threw the magic in the staff.But after being frightened, Tiana felt relieved. Although the people outside the door hadn't spoken yet, her intuition had already given the answer.

"Am I going to come in? There are no dangerous items inside, right?" El's voice came through from behind the door, his tone very cautious.

"Well, no..." Tiana put down her staff and let out a long breath of relief.She knew very well that the jerk outside was just joking.With his peeping ability, he must have seen enough of himself, and now he is in the mood to put on a pose like this, which at least shows that the situation outside has not turned to the bad side.

As soon as she relaxed, the tiredness in her body immediately returned, but the girl still tried her best to stay awake. It was not until the door was pushed open and she saw the familiar figure with her own eyes that she felt at ease.

"Congratulations...you succeeded." When she noticed the change in El's momentum, her eyes had already darkened, and she could only vaguely feel that she was surrounded by a pair of strong hands, and then heard the reassuring voice. And the familiar heartbeat.

"A genius like you certainly won't understand how difficult it is for a mortal like me to advance." El couldn't help frowning as he looked at the wound on the girl in his arms.His casual complaints were just to divert the girl's attention, but this time there was no response. Obviously, this kind of injury has exceeded Tiana's body's ability to bear it, causing her to fall into a real coma immediately after she relaxed.

Seeing the corners of the girl's lips curled up slightly in a coma, El lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek lightly, picked her up and walked out of the house.Little Langa, who had returned to the larva form, got out of his clothes and jumped to the ground. He opened his mouth and sprayed a mouthful of green acid on the wardrobe.

El once heard Laurana talk about the taboo about spellcasters. Their blood also has magical powers. If someone gets it, they can use the blood to cast a curse on the body.Although I don't know if this kind of thing is true, it doesn't hurt to be careful.

On this day, Sword Castle fell.

　It seems that the feeling has really recovered?Congratulations, I don't know when I will be able to return to the starting point, the fantasy version of Genesis is simply a hell of ice...
