..................... ..

After sending away some of the wounded, Her Royal Highness's crusade team continued to advance deeper, because the main force of the [Eternal Throne] stronghold here had been basically wiped out, so Lilia did not continue to dismantle the team.

Nearly a hundred people of at least black steel level powerhouses, including warriors and knights, archers, mages, and priests, cautiously moved forward.

In addition, although Miss Natalie has been sent out for treatment due to exhaustion and continuous drug experiments, Miss Edwina, who is in better condition, volunteered to join and is currently in the team .

After a period of rest and treatment, her injuries have basically recovered. Although the excessively depleted holy power cannot be recharged immediately, her combat power is not too weak. She, who is at the sky level, can still help to some extent.

The main reason is that, as the only person who escaped from the prison, Edwina is currently the only one who knows the internal path of the orphanage. With her guidance, a lot of time for exploration can be saved, so Lilia did not refuse her proposal.

Of course, Her Royal Highness has asked about the details of this Miss Paladin, and made some tests to confirm that she is fine.

Right now, Edwina is walking and chatting casually with the other eye in the team, a middle-aged swordsman named Nicholas.

"So that's it. Mr. Nichols is a man of the empire. He is a master of Gaifengliu. No wonder his swordsmanship is so superb. I'm afraid there are few people in the world who can easily defeat you, right?"

"Hehe, Miss Edwina is awesome. I'm just a rough martial artist, and my swordsmanship is only superficial of my master's. How can I match the four characters of supernatural?"

[Wild Wolf] With a wry smile, the five fingers of his right hand pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist, moving slightly, in the enemy camp, while maintaining the posture of being ready to draw the sword at any time, the words in his mouth did not stop.

"The world is so big, there are countless strong people, and there are extremely strong beings who can crush me with just one finger. I still know how much I have."

"Eh? One finger, crush you...? Isn't that an exaggeration?"

Edwina turned her head in surprise, she had seen the strength of this Blastful Swordsman with her own eyes, a sky-level peak powerhouse, not to mention a saint, but there is no problem calling him a "sword hero".

What kind of existence can defeat Mr. Nicholas so crushingly?Even the super-class Gale Sword Saint can't do it, can he?

Suddenly, two figures of girls appeared in the girl's heart, and she was relieved as if she understood.

"Yes, there are truly strong people in this world, and we are still far behind."

"Hehe, what Miss Edwina said is true. It's quite rare for young people nowadays to have such a humble attitude..."

Chapter 127: Chapter 67: The Peeping in the Shadows (Gageng)

To be honest, when Nicholas first saw this silly girl in front of him, he was a little disapproving.

This kind of family daughter, who has never experienced social beatings at first glance, and who ran out of a deep boudoir, is usually unclear about her own abilities.He likes to be brave, to be reckless, and to bring the things at home to the outside world, especially because he doesn't have enough awe for the real horror.

Basically, they have to go through a few profound lessons before they learn to be good. If one is not good, they may lose their lives in the process.

Especially when he heard that Miss Edwina was seriously injured and was almost exhausted and forced to follow the crusade team, similar thoughts became even stronger.

In Nichols' view, the correct approach is to be like that Miss Natalie, obediently recognize the identity of the wounded, lie down and rest obediently, instead of running to cause trouble for others.

However, Edwina's previous words caught Mister Wolf unexpectedly.

She... can actually understand the deep gap between that kind of person and the absolute powerhouse?

Sky class is a very high-level existence in the United Kingdom or the Holy Empire. Even after I met those two, I clearly understood the ignorance of the past. Could it be that Miss Edwina also encountered something terrible?

Although a bit curious, similar experiences should be secret or painful traumas that everyone does not want to mention. Naturally, Nicholas would not take the initiative to ask.

In the end, the two just looked at each other and smiled, and there was a bit of sympathy and sympathy for each other.

The team moved forward slowly, clearing the fish that slipped through the net along the way, and finally, they came to a somewhat confusing place.

【Immortal Throne】Experimental field.

Because Natalie said before that this is the most concentrated and weirdest place in the entire cult organization's high-end combat power, so the two of them bypassed it at the time.

Now that the offensive and defensive forces are reversed, Edwina will naturally bring a large force to this place, which is obviously the enemy's lair.

but…….

Lilia stepped forward, staring at the big hole that seemed to be opened by some kind of huge force, the corners of her eyes twitched a few times.

If you think about it with your feet, you can know who is capable of doing similar things at this time, and who is in a hostile relationship with the Immortal Throne.

It seems that she has already come earlier.

If you have a headache, can't you open the door in a slightly normal way? If you didn't know this in advance, it would be too scary.

"Cough...well, you can go in, this may be an important place for the enemy, be careful, remember not to destroy important evidence and clues."

Under the command of Her Royal Highness, the shadow guards and adventurers who were stunned by this scene carefully drilled into the experimental field through the big hole.

So, they saw a chaotic room that was destroyed by the aftermath of the battle, and corpses all over the floor that seemed to be torn to pieces by some kind of terrifying force.

"This…….."

Edwina, Nicholas, and several adventurers came to the most conspicuous place in the audience, the huge iron door that was directly and deeply recessed in the wall, and the "meat trap" sandwiched between the wall and the door. Momo".

Nicholas tried to pry the iron door in the wall with his sword, trying to see if it was solid.

Not moving.

There is no doubt that this thing must weigh at least several tons, let alone him, even a legendary fighter may not be able to lift it up, let alone smash it directly into the wall in this violent form...

Mr. Dire Wolf wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, it was hard to imagine what kind of terrifying creature invaded this place before them?

Miss Priest naturally wouldn't specifically tell Nichols that she would also come to participate in this siege operation, and as an insider, Princess Lilia must have kept her mouth shut.

But even without knowing it, when encountering such an unimaginable scene, the seemingly slender figure of the master and servant still appeared uncontrollably in Nicholas' mind.

If it's the blond girl, maybe she can...

"My God, come and see, what kind of enemies did these three people encounter..."

Miss Paladin's exclamation could not be suppressed, even mixed with fear, Nicholas's heart skipped a beat, and he hurried to Edwina's side with a few companions.

Those were three ordinary-looking cultists, who were also struck hard by some kind of force and embedded in the wall.

But what was unbelievable was that these three guys kept their bodies intact and lost their breath even though they were living dead who couldn't really die without their heads being chopped off.

Their eyes were wide open, and their pupils still reflected the horror and puzzlement that hadn't dissipated. Black blood flowed from every corner of their bodies at the same time, and their entire bodies seemed to be deflated.

"I rely on!"

Nicholas stepped forward to examine it carefully, but the terrifying truth scared him so much that he almost dropped the sword in his hand on the ground.

Except for a layer of skin, these three people's internal bones and internal organs were all shaken into flesh!

After the experienced high-level adventurers checked, they all showed shock and hurried back a few steps, apparently quite frightened.

Here, it's too scary, not only the scenes beyond human comprehension, but also the lingering chill that makes the scalp numb unconsciously, and consumes the heart durability of the people present all the time.

What kind of strong man is he who slaughtered the enemies here beforehand?Whether it's an enemy or a friend, will she come back?

And the only one who knew the truth, a certain princess, and the two legendary masters who vaguely guessed a little bit, also had weird faces, and the corners of their eyes kept twitching.

That guy is still as unreasonable as ever.

Fortunately, most of the information has been preserved. Lilia basically understood the situation here after looking through it briefly, and found the children who were kept here for experiments in several large iron cages in the corner.

After a simple check, the crusade team also confirmed that these were the children of the residents of the royal capital who had disappeared inexplicably.

Although the process became a bit bizarre due to someone's intervention, as long as they go to the prison that Edwina mentioned and liberate the rest of the people, the operation will be considered complete.

For the remaining [Eternal Throne] remnants, the knights outside will not catch or kill any of them.

But...why didn't I see the throne?

While breathing a sigh of relief, Lilia also felt a little puzzled. She had originally planned to have at least one throne here, and brought all the legendary and high-end combat power that her subordinates could mobilize.

But in fact, although I encountered some troubles along the way, I didn't meet too many sky, or even legendary high-end powerhouses.

Could it be that Wei Lisi killed him in advance?

Not impossible...

This should be a good thing, but for some reason, Her Royal Highness has always felt a faint uneasiness in her heart, and after entering this room, her back has been slightly chilled, as if something is staring at her maliciously.

Just now.

"what!!!"

A sharp scream broke the tense and orderly search. Everyone who had raised their hearts to their throats because of the terrifying scene immediately drew their weapons as if they were facing a big enemy, and immediately turned their attention to the voice. source.

That was, a boy who had just been rescued from the cage, was clearly awake, but for some reason was weak and unable to speak.

Starting with him, one after another howls and exclamations resounded in the entire experimental field.After that, all the children who were rescued from the iron cage fell down in a daze, unable to breathe any more.

"Your Highness, Your Highness! What's going on?!"

Edwina anxiously cast a healing spell on one of them, but it was of no use.

Not only her, but even the earth-level and even sky-level adventurer priests in the team couldn't rescue the children who had stopped breathing even though they had no trauma.

In the end, the inexperienced paladins could only pin their hopes on the equally young but already quite prestigious princess.

Lilia squatted down with a serious expression, carefully inspected the state of the child in Edwina's arms, and exchanged a few words in a low voice with Fei Yanhua and the seemingly empty side.

"They are all dead..."

At the same time, the chill of being watched became more and more serious, making Her Royal Highness... feel like falling into an ice cellar.

Chapter 128: Chapter 68: 【Fear】 that seeps into the bone marrow

After examining all the children who died at the scene, Lilia concluded their cause of death.

Soul drained.

Soul and body are inseparable and interdependent communities.

The physical body bears the carrier of the soul, and the soul is the source of the driving body. The souls of these children have been completely disintegrated, and even the resurrection magic of the Holy Empire to redeem the saints cannot have the power to return to heaven.

Edwina, as an insider, has seen the dead man disappear for too long and the soul has dispersed more than once, and expressed powerlessness.

After all, the souls of ordinary people are still too fragile. If they die normally, they may survive for a while, but they are obviously directly attacked by the soul level...

"W-how could it be...it was fine just now, why did it suddenly become like this?"

All the hostages were ruthlessly killed when they were just a step away from success. It was like a slap in the face of all their side.

Not only was it difficult for Edwina to accept it for a while, but even the calm and composed Her Royal Highness, the delicate and noble face could hardly restrain the anger that surfaced.

However, Lilia remained rational after all.

"I don't know, the journey of the soul is too mysterious, and the people I brought only understand a little bit. But...they looked a little bit wrong before, I'm afraid they have been tampered with, but now they suddenly detonated."

In other words, no matter what, they couldn't save these children.

Everyone was silent, and the atmosphere fell into a trough. Just as Lilia was enduring the uneasiness of being watched, she was thinking about whether to go to the cell first to ensure the safety of the other hostages...

"Your Highness, do you feel that the air here is getting colder and colder?"

The swordsman named Nicholas suddenly looked up at the high dome of the experimental field, and subconsciously pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword.

"It does feel like this, but the level is still..."

Before she finished speaking, Her Royal Highness's pupils shrank instantly, and the hairs all over her body exploded. A chill and a strong sense of crisis far surpassed the previous one came to my heart, and the dark sense of watching climbed to the extreme!

Someone is behind her!

"Who!"

Lilia turned around instinctively, and slashed away with a sword!

"...?"

There was nothing there, only gusts of wind blew from unknown sources, and were swept up by the lingering airflow from the long sword of Her Royal Highness the Queen.

But no matter how he turned around, even if his reliable companion was behind him, the shivering feeling that made his pores shrink as if he was being stared at by something terrifying was still lingering.

For the first time, Her Royal Highness felt fear.

No, something is wrong, there is definitely something here!Where, exactly where!

"Lilia, calm down!"

A soft drink, like a heavy hammer, struck Her Highness Wang Nu's panic-stricken heart dominated by fear, causing her to wake up immediately.

Hua's arrow was already on the short bow, and she was obviously affected by the strange environment here. Although she was not as distracted as Lilia, her eyes had become dignified and sharp, and she was scanning the surrounding space back and forth. venue.

"!"

"Just now I……."
