She Is Not a Witch

It was the first time for Rock to take this amazing magical creation. The steel body flew in the sky like a bird. I really don't know how those mages did it. It seems to be similar to the airship, but it is very different .

The propellers on both sides of the wing rotate rapidly, and the noise can be heard clearly even in the cabin. This environment is not particularly comfortable, and there are often violent vibrations during the flight, but when he looks at the soldiers around him , I found that many people have gotten used to it, and even leaned against the bulkhead to sleep with their weapons in their arms, unaware of the huge roaring sound outside.

Because of the closed engine room, the people sitting inside don't know where they are now, but Rock can roughly feel that the place where he is now should be deep into the hinterland of the North by virtue of the slight change in the temperature of the bulkhead.

Even through the metal cabin, the bone-piercing cold is still transmitted, making people sober.

"It has arrived over the target and is ready to fight."

"It has arrived over the target and is ready to fight."

"It has arrived over the target and is ready to fight."

The driver's repeated voice came from the horn loudspeaker in the cabin, and then a captain picked up the metal speaker beside him and responded.

"Got it, it's ready." The voice was transmitted to the cab in front through the slender metal pipe, and then there was a response, which was the end of the call.

Then, the interior of the cabin began to tilt, and the plane began to dive and reduce altitude.

Giant birds made of steel descend from the clouds and pass through the thick sea of ​​clouds, as if entering a brand new world. Different from the clean and empty world in the sea of ​​clouds, here is a place where countless snowflakes are dancing and the cold ice sealed world.

Violently oscillating flames came from the front of the field of vision, and the explosion cloud that soared into the sky swayed countless snowflakes, shaking this almost static world, and then the flames dissipated, revealing the ruins below, and the ground full of dark red embers.

The belly of the cabin was opened, and a gust of cold wind poured in, making people sober up instantly, and then one after another, the soldiers who had prepared jumped off for it and entered this extremely cold world.

Rock, like these soldiers, jumped into the snow-covered world below, and after passing a certain distance in the air, he opened the parachute behind him unhurriedly. In fact, for him, such things are dispensable. But still want to experience it.

Passing through the sky whistling by the north wind, and landing on the slightly icy ground after the snow melted, Rock moved his hands and feet and followed the team in front.

Down the roads and watchtowers on the mountainside, the battle has already begun. Although there had been bombing before, some small targets remained. There were still many defenders stationed here. Facing the sudden arrival of the Dryas soldiers, these people were surprised, but they quickly reacted and started firing.

The sound of musket firing echoed in the mountains, and then there was the sound of swords clashing. For some extraordinary people, bullets are not as useful as imagined. As long as they don't stop casually, it is almost impossible for ordinary soldiers to Shooting at high-speed moving targets has been known to both sides in recent years of combat.

But this time, the soldiers who can participate in the battle are all elites of the Fairy Wood, and all of them are superhumans of level 3 or above. Facing such masters as the enemy, they did not expect to rely on muskets and bullets alone. can win.

After landing on the ground, many people pulled out the mechanical blunderbuss swords carried on their backs. The iron-gray sword was engraved with clear and orange-red rune marks, and the magic spar on the scabbard had fully charged the rune marks. Finally, it can play a great role in the battle, and can easily cut through the opposite weapons and armor.

At the same time, the armor worn by these soldiers is also a simplified version of magic armor. Although the defense is not fully covered, and it has no flight function, it comes with anti-gravity and lightening enchantments, which can easily browse through various obstacles and jump to At a very high place, a limited shield can also be opened at the same time to resist the weak arrow shooting.

With such excellent equipment, these soldiers quickly broke through the blockade of the northern garrison and approached the ruins of the collapsed castle.

Extraordinary people will not die easily. Although the explosion just now was huge, its power was not concentrated. A transcendental person of level 6-7 would not be killed unless he was holding a bomb, so the battle has not ended so quickly .

From time to time, orange-red arcs of sword blades flashed in the snow, and the voice of the command was constantly shouted. These soldiers broke through the defense line of the garrison at an unprecedented speed, gradually surrounded the entire ruins, and then began to clean and search for the ruins Hidden figure.

Rock was also among these people. He walked among the collapsed rubble, carefully sensing the magic power below, and then turned over stones from time to time.

'Not here. '

'This doesn't feel right, not Isaiah or the Queen. '

'Not here. '

'The location here should not be wrong, wait...'

He stopped in the middle of the ruins, then walked a few steps towards the northwest corner, but stopped soon.

'Is it gone here, but at his level, it shouldn't be so obvious. ’ Thoughts turned in his mind for a while, Rock still swung his sword to sweep away the gravel under him, and pushed it aside, revealing the covered passage below.

Here is a staircase that spirals down, leading to the dark underground of the castle.

'I can only go in. '

After calling out to the soldiers around him and asking them to report, Roque jumped in directly, and then quickly walked through the dark passage without lights.

Although the underground passages in the northern border are gloomy and cold, they are not as cold as the surface. On the contrary, people who enter from the frozen world will feel a little bit warmer. After entering the ground, Rock followed the faint scent in the air and kept moving forward.

‘The smell of this perfume is very similar to that of Evelyn. ’ With such thoughts floating in his mind, Roque couldn’t help but think of Evelyn’s sister, Tesslin, the gentle and gentle princess.

At that time, he was indeed the one who controlled the fate of the two sisters and separated them, but now that he had promised Evelyn, he would do his best to bring Teslin back safely.

Even for the Dryas, catching Teslin alive is the best result, which can greatly ease the internal conflicts after the unified empire, and then make a smooth transition.

When Rock continued to go deeper into this underground spiral passage, a slight sound of dripping water also came from the front, and then became more and more clear.

Finally, he stopped before a closed iron gate.

The iron door is engraved with the coat of arms of some kind of monster, with strong rivets nailed on all sides. It looks very thick, and there is a keyhole the size of a thumb in the middle, which is now tightly locked.

At this time, Rock didn't have time to look for the key. He decisively drew out the blood-red dagger at the back of his waist, and then crossed it, leaving two marks on the iron door.

The solid iron gate was not cut open by the dagger, but it also left two deep ravines, and the metal curling blade at the edge was turned outward, exposing the silver-white part inside.

'The material is very unusual. ’ Thinking so in his mind, Rock’s hand kept slashing and cutting again and again, finally revealing the back part.

Facing the dilapidated solid iron door, Rock kicked it open, revealing the dark world behind the door.

This is a karst cave inside the mountain. It is very humid and cold. There are no traces of man-made chiseling. It should be the original terrain.

According to the faint smell remaining in the air, Rock quickly shuttled inside the cave, but soon he stopped because someone was already waiting for him in front of him.

There was a sound of "bang", and a torch was lit, and then illuminated the dark cave.

Standing opposite Roque was his childhood friend Isaiah, but compared to his handsome and unrestrained appearance in the past, he is very embarrassed now.

"It really is you, Roque."

"it's me."

Rock looked at the man in front of him, and then continued to search for Teslin's whereabouts with his perception, and soon found a small trace behind the dissolved column in the distance, where a small piece of white skirt was exposed, so far his nerves Just relax a little.

"If it was in the past, I would definitely laugh at you, but now, I don't have the capital to speak like this." Compared to the past, Isaiah has become a lot more tired, and he is no longer as calm and calm as before.

"Um."

Rock did not continue arguing with Isaiah about their ideas as in the past, and now, arguing no longer makes much sense.

The world has already given the answer, and everything is close to a foregone conclusion.

"Yes, you won in the end, but I want to know where I went wrong." Isaiah held the sword, the side of his face was uncertain under the shadow of the fire.

"I, like you, liked to read the biographies and stories of those heroes when I was a child. Of course, I would not foolishly believe in the stories in the book, because if I deduce it completely according to the content in the book, I think it is unreasonable. There are too many places that do not conform to logic."

"At first I thought it was the beautification of later generations, or the result of artistic processing, but as time went on, I became more and more convinced that these stories were just compiled to educate and convince others."

"Trample the rules, be super powerful, and be admired and respected by countless people. This is a hero. People naturally worship the strong, and beautify all their actions, making them the road of heroes."

"I just need to be strong enough."

"I have done a lot of things, and I have also seized the fleeting opportunities in the tide of the times. Step by step, I have become a high-ranking, famous general, and the object of worship and follow by countless people. Even the Duke must not rely on me. Ability."

"It's just that luck is indeed a wonderful thing. Even if I did this, I was still cornered again and again in helplessness. Maybe this is fate. You are a luckier person than me."

"If I had also gone to the southern border that year, it might have been another result."

"No, Isaiah, even if you go to the southern border, it won't change the result." Rock rarely retorted.

"A lot of things have already been decided from the very beginning. You are so smart and confident that you won't change so easily."

"May I ask that in the southern border at that time, the glory of the empire had not yet fallen. Would you abandon your family and join a wandering and dangerous organization with an uncertain future?"

"Everything, the moment your sister married into Earl Wolfthorn's family and you received a letter of recommendation from this, the future has already been decided."

"If you are a person who has no emotion and is dedicated to himself, you will not let so many soldiers follow you, and you will not be able to reassure the big men. They will not let you sit in your current position. It is because of these that you can gain step by step. Follow, earn trust, grow stronger."

"You will never forget this kindness, and you also have nostalgia for your family. These things support you and make you stronger step by step, but they also bind you step by step with the Earl of Wolfthorn, the Griffin Family, and the upper echelons of the empire. .”

"However, the times have changed. It is no longer the era when the glory and bravery of nobles can convince the world. What people desire more is fairness and breaking free from shackles."

"So, I said, a lot of things have been decided from the very beginning, and it's only now that I slowly see and realize all of this."

"Perhaps, hundreds of years ago, Isaiah, you would have had more brilliant achievements, an admirable ending, and become a figure admired and sung by everyone. However, that era is no longer the case."

"Some things are still beautiful in legends and stories, but when they happen to you, you will find that they are out of date."

"In the old days, you could laugh at me for my near-fantasy and unrealistic dreams, my naive notions of fairness and the realities of clear stakes."

"It's just that some people have slowly changed this era. When the public begins to recognize new ideas and systems, the understanding of fairness will become clearer and be respected by others."

"Yes, even if it is still not 100% perfect, everyone has recognized the necessity and justice of this, so you think that you can ignore or even trample on the rules just by relying on your own strength, and gain people's cheers and admiration The era has slowly dissipated."

"Some people dare not speak out, but no one cheers and praises them anymore. When a behavior is rejected by more and more people, it's time to exit."

"The heroes of the past are no longer, and new heroes are rising for them. Although the names are the same, the meanings have long been different."

After saying this, Rock stopped slowly. He lamented that he rarely talked too much, and maybe he also realized that there might not be many opportunities to talk to this childhood friend.

"Heh...haha, is that so? Is that so?" Isaiah propped his face with one hand, crying and laughing at the same time, seeming relieved and regretful.

"I still don't understand you, how stupid."

"No, at least a few years ago, I didn't see it so clearly. Until today, when I sat on the wings made of steel, I suddenly realized that everything is different, and it is no longer the past era. .” Rock shook his head.

Standing in the dark cave, the two fell into a short silence and tranquility again.

After a long time ~www.readwn.com~ Isaiah slowly raised his head and got out of the way.

"Her Majesty Tesslin is there, you can take her away now."

Rock didn't act directly, but looked at the man.

"how about you?"

"Me? Maybe I don't know either." There was no calmness in the voice of the past, only endless exhaustion and discouragement.

"I haven't even seen the changes of the times clearly, so how can I know my own future?"

"Why do everyone firmly believe that the world will develop as they expected, when everything is full of variables, deceit, and betrayal."

"Betraying childhood dreams, friends, oaths, and yourself, it's really hard work to keep the promise." As he spoke, he slowly sat on the ground, his eyes glazed over, and the torch in his hand rolled aside.
