Civilization Guardian Front

Ding!

The tip of the sword hit the powerless side of the broad-edged sword, and when it bounced off the enemy's sword, it also dissipated the ghost energy attached to it.

The offensive was dismissed lightly, and there was no slight fluctuation on Chios' stern face.

After many days of sparring, he has a deep understanding of how exaggerated the martial arts of the Maiden of the Spear is. If he is still surprised by this, it will be an insult to the instructor.

Instead of wasting time on shock, it is better to seize every millisecond and do everything possible to display your skills.

The endless ghost energy attached to the blade again, and before the opponent pursued, the sword retreated slightly.

The back foot draws a quarter circle along the ground, and the front foot follows up, driving the body to rotate at a high speed. The body strengthened by the ghost aura inspires unimaginable power, and stretches it into a straight line with the skill of the Absolute Sword Skill. On the blade.

"Absolute Sound? Turn"

Where the broad-edged long sword passed, a purple-black airflow burst out like a sharp blade, forming a huge suction force like a typhoon, engulfing everything within five meters.

"That's a good move..."

Liana, who was within the radius of the storm and did not use any special power, moved lightly amidst the ghostly aura, avoided most of the air blades that were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, swung her simple long sword to push away the fish that slipped through the net, and was still able to express her approval own students.

The heavy armor on her body seemed to be unable to bring her any burden at all, and the white cloak danced with her figure, and her dignified and noble appearance was not messed up in the slightest.

Like a saint who dances with the devil with a sword...

It's a pity that "Extinct Sound? Turn" is an explosive skill, even with a body strengthened by ghostly aura, seven seconds is the limit.

Even at the sixth second, the sword skills tended to weaken.

"almost..."

Sensing keenly that the power of the surrounding air knives began to weaken, the blond woman stepped into the center of the storm.

After waving the long sword to block the air blade, he took advantage of the rebounding force to catch the next ghost air. After repeating this, the silver sword light was as fast as thunder, protecting her from top to bottom, opening a way for her to go forward.

When she came to Chios, the spinning sword skill had just come to an end.

Clang!

"The last blow..." Holding back the young man's weakened sword, Liana stared at Chios, who was a little out of breath, and said in a gentle tone:

"As long as you can block it and not be knocked down, you will pass the level."

After finishing speaking, he pushed the young man's chest with his left palm wearing an iron glove, pushing him ten steps away.

"Ha...ha..."

Staggering back and forth, Chios, who managed to stand still, panted and looked at the instructor in front of him.

I saw the saint of the gun holding up the long sword with one hand, pointing directly at the sky.

The next moment, the golden and blue two-colored lightning flashed and converged, enveloping the entire sword in an instant.

Seeing this, Chios didn't have any intention of rushing forward to interrupt the opponent.Instead, he concentrated, stretched out his left hand, put his index and middle fingers together and quickly drew three crossing lines in the void.

Yuanli followed the young man's gestures, forming silver-gray runes with protective effects in the air.

"steel"

Immediately afterwards, Chios turned his wrist, drew a circle around the text, and finally cut through the middle of the rune with his finger knife...

"Woe"

The steel rune that was originally shining with silver light was instantly stained with a layer of dark blue.

The entire process of drawing runes takes less than a second.

Then, the awe-inspiring shout of the Holy Maiden of the Spear came:

"Earth Thunder Hammer!"

The thunder light on the long sword shot towards the sky, and a burst of golden ripples spread from Liana's feet, quickly capturing where Chios was.

The lightning that rushed into the sky, as if guided by positioning, aimed at the top of the young man's head and fell.

hum...

The blue-black rune trembled slightly, and opened a translucent barrier to block the thunder.

boom!

The Thunder Hammer smashed heavily on the barrier, digging a large crack in it.

Seeing that the runes were powerless to resist, a black glow passed over the transparent barrier. When the black glow disappeared, the cracks on the barrier also disappeared without a trace.

Whenever the barrier is overwhelmed, the black light will flash again.

Under the ebb and flow, the powerless Lei Guang finally exhausted one step ahead.

And the runes that fulfilled their protective duties also faded and dissipated into the void.

"This is..." The simple steel sword retracted the heraldic space, Liana walked forward slowly, and said to Chios with approval:

"Can absorb a certain amount of impact to repair itself, combined with the "Steel of Misfortune" rune born from your original characteristics..."

"Yes, Instructor Liana."

Seeing the instructor put away his weapon, Chios also withdrew the source power that supplied the eye of robbery and ghost energy.

The young man whose appearance had returned to normal shrugged his shoulders at the blond woman in response:

"It's just that the degree of absorption is also limited. If you had increased the power a little bit just now, I wouldn't be able to stand firmly here."

"Heh..." Liana showed a faint smile on her awe-inspiring face.

"I want to test your ability, not pure oppression, and the result also proves that you have indeed made great progress in six days."

Even Chios, who has always been good at hiding his emotions, couldn't help feeling excited to be recognized by the Maiden of the Spear.

Even the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Without hurting the young man's mood, Liana happily gave the evaluation she had in mind:

"In the past six days, you have not only demonstrated your excellent aptitude, but also proved your perseverance and perseverance. It is precisely because of the above two points that you can reach Rank? D in a short period of time, and through my set The tests of... You can't stand here with just one of them, so you can hold your head high and be proud."

"You have temporarily passed, Chios..."

Having said that, the blond woman turned around and walked towards the main hall.

"Now, come with me to the conference hall to meet the lord... It's time to let you know the information about the next mission."

Chapter 170 Two? The task difficulty is a bit high

Enter the main hall, climb up the spiral staircase at the end of the corridor on the west side, go to the second floor, walk through the corridor, and the conference hall is in the middle of the floor.

Liana pushed open the two three-meter-high wooden doors in front of her, and led Chios into the hall.

Unlike the audience hall, which is spacious and towering in order to create a solemn atmosphere, the ceiling of the conference hall is no more than five meters from the ground; there are no gorgeous murals, and a brass chandelier hangs down, and the firelight in the lamp holder can just illuminate the room; the four corners of the room, A double sofa is placed respectively; the slightly more ornate seat faces the floor-to-ceiling windows, and flags embroidered with ouroboros patterns are hung on the walls on both sides.

A beautiful woman in a white sleeveless gown with a somewhat languid figure is sitting on the gorgeous seat, her crystal nails are gently scraping the gold armrest, she is thinking of something.

The head of the Seventh Legion, the Grand Consul of the Eternal City, Athena.

Seeing Liana and Chios pushing the door in, she first glanced at Chios, and then looked at the blonde woman in front of her.

"It seems that Chios has been fully trained under your command these days, Liana."

"Just try to teach him as much as possible..." The Holy Maiden of the Spear replied as a matter of course, with a calm expression.

"Is it just a guide?" The plain hand held her chin lightly, and a few strands of violet hair fell from her fingers like a waterfall. The goddess looked at the other party with a smile and asked:

"I feel that your relationship has become quite harmonious, or is this just an illusion?"

"From unfamiliarity to familiarity, from vigilance to trust..." Saying this, Liana turned her face to look at Chios, and replied with a calm smile:

"If you use the way of my world, it's probably a bond."

"Bond..." whispered softly, the emerald eyes slowly closed for a while, and Athena showed a gratified smile.

"I once thought that it would take more time to influence a child with a dark temperament and lack of love like Chios, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated you."

Inexplicably being poked by the goddess' words, and unable to refute his tough boss, the black-haired young man could only maintain a gentle smile.

It's a pity that the goddess didn't understand his difficulties at all, and continued to tease:

"Look, he's smirking again."

I really want to go home...

The young man who couldn't hold back his smiling face resisted the urge to turn around and leave.

"I'm sorry, the joke is a joke, I just like to see you troubled..." Seeing Chios' embarrassment at this time, Athena looked at the young man's handsome but tense face, and comforted him gently:

"I know that you two get along well, of course, I am very happy."

The boss has offered to apologize, what more can I ask for...

Chios could only nod helplessly to express his understanding.

"Okay..." After a short greeting, Athena's lazy demeanor subsided, and her eyes became sharper.

"I asked Lianna to bring you here today to inform you of the next mission world and let you know what preparations you should make."

Although he had already guessed the purpose of summoning him today, Chios still pretended to be surprised.

"I thought this would be told to the executor a moment before the mission begins."

"Stop acting... Otherwise, I'll wonder if you've read too many infinite novels about the envoys of the main gods fighting each other, or you just drank too much..."

Seeing every detail of the deliberate change in the young man's expression, Athena waved to Chios, indicating that his acting skills were not enough.

"The failure of the executor mission is of no benefit to the Civilization Defense Front, and the deliberate concealment of information is equally unreasonable."

At this time...

"But the lord may increase the difficulty of the task according to your ability through the dual authority of the commander of the Seventh Army and the directly subordinate superior..." the saint of the gun spoke after being quiet for a while:

"Like the two main quests in your trial world, it would be impossible for a normal trialer to pass."

(I knew it... )

The black-haired young man who had noticed it for a long time didn't say anything, but just narrowed his gaze at the goddess.

"However, your mission rewards have also been increased accordingly, otherwise it would be completely impossible for you, an ordinary rookie, to be promoted to Rank?D for the first mission..."

Glancing at Liana, Athena wondered for the first time whether she was right or wrong in letting this woman guide Chios.

But it was just a thought, and soon, she turned her eyes to Chios' deep purple eyes again.

"I can tell you frankly that the difficulty of the mission world will still increase this time."

"I don't know why, I'm not surprised at all." The young man spread his arms and replied as if appointed:

"You might as well tell me directly what difficulties you are facing."

Hearing Chios' reply, the two women in the conference hall could not help but smile at the same time.

Although he is deep-minded and glib, he does not complain or act coquettishly in the face of the difficulties in front of him, but actively seeks more information quietly.

"Heh, you look like a qualified man..." Athena leaned on the back of the chair lightly, with emotion and relief intertwined in her tone.

She stretched out her finger, and the sofa by the wall seemed to be pulled, and it was quickly dragged five steps in front of her.

"You guys sit down first."

After the two of them took their seats, the goddess snapped her fingers.

The steaming black tea was served in a white porcelain gold-rimmed earcup, and a tray of the same style was placed on the base, appearing in front of them out of thin air.

After taking the teacup, she took a sip elegantly and silently, and then Athena spoke:

"Your next mission world is "Aria of the Scarlet Bullet". Have you seen related works?"

"I've heard of it..." Chios nodded after searching his memory for a while.

Swipe your fingers vertically in the void, and the ice-blue runes that exude a faint chill quickly cool down the black tea in the cup.

"Essentially the same 21st century setting as our world, with an armed detective story with superpowers."

"You're right..." The goddess put the teacup back on the tray in her left hand, without making a sound during the process, her lips moistened by black tea lightly parted:

"It's just that the superpowers in this world are not weak. The bloodlines of the descendants inherited from the great ancestors often have good abilities. In addition, firearms are widely used by military reconnaissance, as well as the secret struggle between underground organizations and various countries. The danger in this world is beyond imagination...Even if the Rank?C executor goes there, it will not be easy."

Although his direct supervisor said so, Chios has every reason to believe that the reason why his second mission world is so difficult is absolutely inseparable from the operation of the elegant woman in front of him.

"This time, you have to complete five main quests, and the difficulty is slightly higher..."
