Lord Highlander

Suldak half-kneeled on the gravel-filled hillside, seeing the rushing ice-rock flow about to fall from the top of his head, and the pervasive snow and fog filled every inch of the hillside.

Facing the mighty coercion of the Headless Horseman, the only thing he could do was to lift up the golden shield with difficulty, and draw the rune words of the 'Ancient Oath' on his chest.

At the same time, with the help of Basil, Delia turned over and stepped onto the magic handle.

She only felt that her body was engulfed by snow and fog, as if she was about to be frozen, and even her movements became slow. Every time she took a breath, a large amount of ice slag rushed into her lungs, making her feel like her upper body was being frozen The same, the kind of cold almost went deep into the bone marrow.

The magician Basil was also frozen in the snow and mist, his face was livid, and he manipulated the magic handle extremely stiffly.

The next moment, the floating device of the magic scorpion trembled violently. Fortunately, the propulsion device at the tail of the scorpion did not fail at the critical moment. With the continuous injection of mana, a huge thrust made the magic scorpion carry the two people forward snow fog...

The Headless Horseman stood in the snow fog. The extreme cold had obviously affected it, but it completely ignored the rushing snow fog and stood firmly in place.

The flow of ice and rocks overhead was close at hand, and it was too late even if he wanted to dodge it.

He stared at Suldak who was squatting on the ground not far away, and stretched out the blue long sword in his hand, and slashed at Suldak.

It didn't avoid the ice flow at this time, obviously it had enough confidence.

Suldak's heart suddenly turned cold, but at the moment when he saw the long sword that the Headless Horseman had slashed down, he could only grit his teeth and lift up the golden shield in his hand, preparing to take the blow abruptly.

After all, it was the strength of a third-rank grandmaster. Suldak recited the words of the runes, and then showed his 'potential'.

The ancient oath made the surface of the golden shield appear the pattern of the Naga Sea clan, the silver cross pattern of the holy shield, and the large cross pattern of the blessing shield. The three overlapped and looked particularly messy.

And the phantom of the archangel spreading its wings became extremely solid, exuding divine radiance from its body, holding Suldak in its arms with its wings, making it look like it was protected layer by layer.

The Headless Horseman slashed down with his sword.

The shield was broken layer by layer.

Finally, the blue long sword stopped when it hit the golden shield. At this critical moment, the Kuerwen sword in Suldak's left hand also blocked the blue blade. Suldak used the sword and shield to parry the headless The knight cut down this sword.

It's a pity that even so, Suldak still couldn't completely block the huge momentum transmitted by the cyan blade.

That huge force hit the shield, and the golden shield slammed hard on Suldak's chest. Fortunately, he was wearing an epic-level armor like Shaft Stamb, and the magic patterns that appeared on the armor instantly blocked it completely. The headless horseman's sharp blow.

It made Suldak feel that there was a thrust like a sea tide rushing towards him.

He couldn't resist at this moment, his body was pushed by the huge force and fell down the hillside...

Facing the oncoming ice and stone flow, the evil ghost leader did not escape. Just a second before an ice cube hit the headless horseman, the headless horseman was covered with a layer of solid black armor.

The next moment, the collapsing glacier engulfed the huge rock like an earth dragon, completely devouring the evil spirit leader.

The figure of General Evil Ghost completely disappeared in the ice flow.

This was the last sight Suldak saw of the Headless Horseman after falling down the hillside.

At this time, Suldak, who was already unable to stabilize his body, looked up at the oncoming ice and rock flow, but he couldn't avoid it.

He muttered 'Aphrodite' in his heart...

Just as a piece of solid ice with a diameter of one meter hit his chest, a door to the void opened behind him.

At this moment, Suldak couldn't support the golden shield at all, and the heavy ice hit Suldak, and a layer of golden light shield erupted from Scheftstambu's armor for the second time, and then a huge impact force He pushed him into the gate of the void.

...

Aphrodite sat in the yard, looking at the messy backyard speechlessly.

Although this small courtyard is not very big, it is a rare place to enjoy the cool air in summer, especially when the dense branches and leaves of creepers completely cover the corridor and gazebo. Aphrodite set up a wicker chair.

Before that, the rattan chair had been placed on the terrace on the roof floor.

This small courtyard has been arranged very comfortably by her, and her daughter Vivienne can even run around chasing a kobold.

Just now, Suldak, who was wearing epic armor, flew out of the void gate in a mess, followed by some ice cubes mixed with gravel.

Suldak fell into a rose wall full of thorns, and those stones and ice blocks almost buried most of her flower wall.

If Aphrodite hadn't closed the void gate in time, there would probably be more ice stones pouring out.

Benson, the gardener weeding next door, was so frightened that he dropped the flower scissors in his hand to the ground, and he squatted on the ladder, dumbfounded.

The painter who was painting the roof almost fell from the side, but fortunately he was tied with a safety rope and hung him on the slope of the roof in time.

Aphrodite's yard was filled with ice and rocks, which made the place a lot cooler.

She didn't rush to rescue Suldak who was buried under the ice pile, but waited for him to push away a few ice blocks from inside, and crawled out in an extremely embarrassing manner.

Looking at Suldak's face covered in dirt, he was lying powerlessly on the grass, and the sword and shield in his hand were casually discarded aside, without any treatment that epic weapons should enjoy.

Aphrodite then stood up from the wicker chair, walked up to Suldak with her skirt and squatted down.

Suldak lay on his back on the grass, looked at the blue sky, white clouds and roofs, and knew that he escaped the catastrophe with the help of Aphrodite.

He exhaled all the cold air in his lungs, then closed his eyes and let his body relax completely.

Aphrodite held half of his cheek with one hand, moved her head closer and said:

"I found that your courage is getting bigger and bigger. If the evil spirit commander is counted according to the hierarchy system of the Green Empire, he should be a third-rank grandmaster. Do you think you already have the strength to challenge the third-rank grandmaster? "

Suldak opened his eyes, and he probably touched the wound when he grinned, with a painful expression on his face.

"It suddenly ran out from the evil ghost army, what can I do?" Suldak said casually.

He paused, glanced at Aphrodi's face secretly, and then said:

"Originally, I wanted to call Iser for help, but Basil said that it could be buried with an avalanche, so we tried it. Who would have thought that the avalanche would be a bit big, and I thought about it by the way. Rescue that aboriginal female warrior as well, so as not to be buried in the ice flow, I didn't expect that headless horseman to stare at me."

His tone seemed to be pretending to be relaxed, and then he added:

"Fortunately, I ran fast." It was unclear whether this sentence was referring to Basil and Delia, or himself.

Delia let go, washed her hands in the basin on the top of the stone pillar, and then said to Suldak:

"You should thank the goddess of luck. Not every time the gate of the void can be opened just right, and you won't have such good luck every time."

Suldak struggled to get up from the lawn, ignoring how dirty his body was, first gave Aphrodite a big hug, and then pressed his forehead against her forehead and said softly: "Okay, I know you It will definitely work."

Aphrodite's face finally changed, looking at the mess in the courtyard, she complained:

"What should I do now! The yard is full of ice, and I have to find someone to clean it up...it's really troublesome."

Unexpectedly, the gardener who was pruning the green plants in the garden next door climbed up the ladder and said to Aphrodite from outside the wall:

"Madam, if you want to clean up the rubbish, we are willing to help you, and finally we will restore the lawn and flower wall for you..."

Suldak knew that Aphrodite had murderous intentions at this moment, but then she changed her mind.

He said to the somewhat unruly gardener Benson: "Then finish these things before the evening, and remember to restore exactly the same as in the morning."

"I will, ma'am!" said gardener Benson happily.

What the gardener didn't know was that just now, he really walked around the edge of life and death.

Seeing the gardener happily carrying the ladder away from the back garden next door, Suldak stood beside the stone pillar and washed his face with the water in the stone basin, feeling full of strength again, and then said to Aphrodite :

"That... can I go back now?"

Aphrodite glanced at the direction of the door, and suggested to Suldak:

"Actually, we have time to eat something first, at least we have to wait for those collapsed glaciers to stabilize, so that the opened void door will not be re-buried by ice stones, and I heard that the pies in the pie shop opposite are very delicious. good."

It was only then that Suldak remembered that he didn't even have time to eat lunch. Hearing what Aphrodite said, he felt really hungry.

"That's great, we haven't had lunch together for a long time!"

...

The waiter at the Golden Oak Pie Shop carried a plate across the street, and when he arrived at the gate of Aphrodite's house, he found that the nanny had been waiting here for a long time.

"Plates can be returned before we close..."

said the waiter to the young nurse, and cast a sharp glance at the nurse's distended chest as he turned to leave.

The young nanny was hired by Aphrodite in the winter to take care of her daughter Vivienne. At the beginning, the nanny thought that Aphrodite was no different from other single ladies in the city. Very wealthy single woman with an illegitimate daughter.

After getting along for a long time, I found out that the hostess is actually a great magician, and she has an extremely huge property in her hands.

Usually, she is full of awe of Aphrodite, only when she takes care of Vivienne alone will she be a little more relaxed.

When she was holding Vivian upstairs, she saw Suldak suddenly appearing on the lawn in the backyard. She was startled by Suldak at first, but now she is also very careful...

Suldak was sitting on a rattan chair in the yard. He was wearing metal armor, so he hugged Vivian very carefully.

Vivienne stared at Suldak with her big blue eyes, and occasionally gave him a big 'giggle' smile, and her two round, white and tender hands always tried to grab something on Suldak's face. Bundle.

Seeing his daughter Vivienne, Suldak showed a trace of tenderness on his face.

The beautiful daughter is still so young, her eyes are full of curiosity about Surdak.

Probably because he felt this kind of family affection that blood is thicker than water, which made him miss Wen Te in Ruyter City.

Aphrodite sat quietly by the side, smiling as she watched Suldak put Vivian to sleep with her own hands.

The daughter was sleeping in her arms, and the nanny standing beside her passed by...

Suldak sat in front of the small table, took out a piece of pie from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth, Aphrodite didn't seem to want to eat it, she picked up a cup of tea, and Suldak who was sitting opposite , Talking about things in the aboriginal tribe.

Probably because he had been worrying about the situation on the North Pass battlefield, Suldak seemed a little absent-minded. The two talked about Delia, and Suldak said it casually.

It also talked about the factors of the awakening of the Nephalem's power, Aphrodite told Suldak that every female demon actually has the ability to awaken the Nephalem...

Aphrodite soon finds out why the Headless Horseman is after Delia:

"It should be the 'ancestor's blessing' that attracted the evil spirit commander. This kind of high-level blessing power often gives birth to a trace of ancestor's breath!"

"The headless horseman should be a strong man who has lived in the dark place of the abyss for a long time. It is estimated that he should also be a great lord in the evil ghost army. It's just that he lost his head and all his memories in a certain battle. But It just happened to meet the warriors of the Aegrod tribe on the battlefield, and now it is acting on instinct, so it lost its reason and chased the aboriginal female warrior all the way."

"It's very strong. It's not that easy to die after living for so long. Be careful when you go back."

"Okay, it should be almost time." Aphrodite said.

Suldak heard Aphrodite say this, and immediately stood up.

A door to the void appeared in front of him.

"knew……"

After finishing speaking, Suldak strode through the void gate, and the next second, he stood on top of the collapsing iceberg.

There are fragments of ice and rocks all around.

The ice and rock flow rushing down from the peak almost filled the foot of the mountain. The place where Suerdak was standing now should be halfway up the mountain, and the original terrain had been completely buried.

The snow and fog cleared, and although the temperature here was extremely low, at least a gentle slope was formed.

Suldak scanned the spot for a week, trying to find the leader of the evil spirits who was buried in ice and snow, but unfortunately, the surrounding area was completely white, occasionally revealing some frost-covered stones.

Suldak saw a huge protruding ice block, ran over quickly, and rushed to the boulder with one stride.

Not long after, Basil flew over from the sky with Delia...
