200. Light in adversity

Lance kept running forward with Yiwen in his arms, while also thinking about the information revealed in the words of the assassins just now.

Judging from the other party's arrangement, the actions of these people were prepared in advance, and what they lacked was the opportunity to take action. Perhaps the assassin that Lance had seen at Dragon Castle was their group. He pointed at Teresia from the beginning. I'm afraid he was just a bystander. No wonder the group of gangsters didn't even look at him directly.

Thinking about it now, if Jill hadn't died yet, he would have been entangled by other assassins.

What is really doubtful is their origin. The hidden appearance can deceive the eyes, but it cannot cover up the data directly feedback on the retina of Lance. The races of these guys are not fixed, which shows that they are not a race that is hostile to the dragon clan, but a huge organization that brings so many talents. What is certain is that they are not mercenaries, Lance has never heard of any mercenary group or the assassin union raised by the great nobles who can make such a big deal.

In this way, the other party's identity was enclosed within a very small range. After all, those who dared to attack the Red Dragon Queen must have the confidence to be inferior to the dragon clan. Lance immediately thought of the female dark elf, but this seemed to be inconsistent. If she was in the same group with these people, there was no need to help her solve the assassin. But if she had nothing to do with her, how could she predict the enemy's initiative and say those words full of hints? After thinking about it, it was a bad debt. Lance vowed that he would have to get back one day.

This dead wood forest is sparse and the range is not wide. After running for a while, Lance finally arrived at the area where the Dragon Clan camp was stationed. However, the camp here has been destroyed, and five giant dragons are fighting in groups of enemies. There are many corpses lying on the ground, including the Dragon Clan and those assassins.

If it weren't for seeing it with my own eyes, it would be hard to imagine such an exaggerated scene. The opponent sent hundreds of people to target Teresia at one time. Moreover, among the people Lance saw, the professions were not just assassins, but also professional teams with balanced offense and defense. Not only were there avant-gardes responsible for melee mages and shooters, but also a priest and witch doctor responsible for auxiliary support. This configuration is like when Lance and his team were preparing for the ruins. No, it was even exaggerated.

Looking at Teresia's side again, this time she came out and only brought twenty elite dragon guards. In addition to the dragons that were still fighting fiercely, there were six who had not transformed. They protected Teresia, who was obviously different from usual, with a ring-shaped circle. Lance looked closely and found that there was a black feather arrow tied on her shoulder, leaning against her and gasping weakly.

It is impossible to believe that the powerful Red Dragon Queen will be injured by this small arrow. Moreover, it is not a fatal injury from the position of the injury, but judging from the results in front of her, there is no doubt that this arrow has something strange.

When Lance saw this situation, he was surprised to calm down. He first found a hidden place to hide Yiwen. Then he sneaked carefully and walked towards Teresia.

Teresia is in a bad condition at this moment. The arrow in her is called the Demon-Sealing Arrow, which is a magical artifact created by the legendary giant craftsman Caruso. It is forged from the darkest essence. There are only three of them in total, one of which was taken to kill the poisonous god Fapolargon. It fell into the poisonous swamp with the corpse of the god. One of them was caught by the giant hero Garak in the battle and broke. The last one has been missing, but now it is just inserted on Teresia's shoulder.

The reason why this arrow is powerful is that it can hide the user's malicious intentions and voices, and quietly approaches your back like the smartest assassin, but you suddenly realize that it is not easy to shoot Teresia like this. Although she cannot detect the aura of this arrow, she can sense the activities of creatures within a radius of one thousand meters. Therefore, if this arrow is successful, it must shoot from beyond her perception range. A guy with such ability can count a slap in this abyss, not to mention that the guy actually has this lost artifact.

Once shot by this arrow, no matter how powerful the body's divine power is, it will disappear. Thousands of years ago, the poisonous god was directly penetrated through his chest by this arrow, destroying the immortal body. Now, although the position of Teresia's arrow was not the key, the effect is still triggered - her magic power is sealed. But this is not the worst. The worst thing is that the enemy is determined to kill Teresia, so she also imposes a most vicious curse on this demon-sealing arrow. It will constantly absorb the vitality of the Red Dragon Queen until Teresia's vitality drys up. That is to say, if Teresia doesn't find a way to remove this arrow from her body faster, she will eventually die due to the exhaustion of her life.

The difficult part is that it is not so easy for you to pull out this arrow. If you force it out without any effort, the curse will still remain in Teresia's body. The cursed wound will not heal, but will accelerate the passage of life. Therefore, only after a powerful witch doctor or priest has cleared this curse can the demon-sealing arrow be removed. But in this way, you must know how to do this. Unfortunately, all the guards brought out by Teresia this time are powerful warriors of the dragon clan, and none of them can clear the curse.

At this time, people with some brains probably thought of immediately turning their subordinates into flying dragons to escort the queen away from this place of right and wrong, and then seek help for treatment. However, the problem is that the person who set up this trap has obviously considered this point long ago.

There is not only the magic weapon of Demon-Sealing Arrow on the scene. In fact, in order to successfully snipe the Red Dragon Queen here, the opponent also prepared another magic weapon as a security after failing to hit the attack, called the prop of the Aster Ring.

This artifact can create a space isolated and present within a radius of 500 meters, drag all creatures entering or existing in this area into this space, and set up an invisible barrier around it. No one can escape from it. There is only one way to leave. That is to find this prop, destroy it or let it remove the barrier.

But the problem is that there were more than 100 masters who surrounded Teresia on the scene. It would be a good idea to find the guy who held the devil's obstacles from them. In fact, Lance also sensed it. As he gradually approached this area, the originally dark environment suddenly turned into a dark red wine-red color, and even the surrounding scenery changed.

Lance did not know the Aster Ring, but he could at least tell that it should be something similar to a barrier. Because he was worried about Teresia's situation, Lance did not go too far in this regard, but chose to speed up his pace and move towards Teresia's direction.

Because Lance had Teresia's dragon seal on her body, although it was weak, Teresia still felt the breath of Lance. She raised her head in surprise, but did not see Lance's figure. She was a little confused, but soon she remembered that Lance had a way to hide in the crowd.

The other party is getting closer and closer, and has reached a distance of only a few feet.

I have to praise the effect of the invisible cloak. Apart from Teresia, no one found Lance's traces along the way.

"You shouldn't have come here." Teresia said weakly, now she was having difficulty even speaking.

Lance knew that this was said to him, and he gently held her from behind. He allowed Teresia to rely on his power to lean on him, and asked in a low voice: "What's going on with this arrow?"

He didn't talk extra nonsense, but asked the most important thing.

"This arrow is a magical artifact that seals all the magic power in my body. I cannot transform now, and at the same time I cannot cast magic."

"How can I pull out this arrow?"

Teresia shook her head: "It's useless, this arrow also comes with a curse. It constantly absorbs my vitality and prevents my wound from healing. Only..."

"Only what?"

Teresia reached out and touched Lance's cheek in the air. She shook her head: "There's nothing to do now."

Lance was immediately annoyed when he heard this, because seeing Teresia had clearly given up now, she was still the resolute and decisive Red Dragon Queen, the woman she liked? In order to save her, Lance left her guard behind, and now she did nothing but planned to give up?

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, what kind of way can save you? I am your man, are you going to let me watch you die?"

Teresia bit her lip, and she buried her head in Lance's chest, and after a while, she spoke: "To pull this arrow, you must lift the curse in my body. To remove the curse, you need a strong purification ability, otherwise, the speed of life loss will only speed up."

In fact, Teresia does not need to remind Lance of this, because Lance stares at her retina, clearly reflecting Teresia's ever-declining health, which is also the reason why Lance feels anxious. But after listening to Teresia's words, Lance calms down.

"Just lift the curse?"

"Um?"

"Do you believe me?" Lance asked suddenly without thinking.

Teresia obviously didn't understand why he asked this, and turned her head to look at Lance's face that did not exist, so Lance repeated the words.

"Do you want to believe me?"

"Believe..." Teresia finally spoke these two words. As soon as she said that, a dazzling white light suddenly burst into her eyes.

This ray of light swallowed the darkness, softness, and warmth.

It seemed as if the sun suddenly bloomed under the dark night, robbed the eyes of those present and deprived them of their ability to move language, because this picture was too incredible and beyond everyone's expectations.

"How is that possible? That...is the Holy Light!"

This skill that can only be used by priests or angels in the race in the human world, which are chosen by God, actually appeared here, which has to be said to have broken everyone's cognition.

However, many people also reacted-

"Stop that holy light quickly, it is expelling the curse of the Red Dragon Queen!" But by the time they realized it was actually too late.

The holy light can drive away curses and diseases and heal wounds. This skill may not be so friendly to creatures in the abyss, but the dragon clan does not suffer many negative effects. Teresia can clearly feel that the curse in her body is being forced back and driven out, the demon-sealing arrow was removed, and the vitality and magic power in her body continued to roll in.

But before she could be happy, she heard a dull wail in her ear. The invisible cloak finally lost its cover, and the entire left hand that belonged to Lance was exposed, festering like a burning fire, revealing the hideous white bones inside, and the scars extended to his chest.

"No!"

Seeing this scene, Teresia couldn't help but exclaim, as if she was injured even more than her own. Although Lance was surprised by the curse in her body with the Holy Light just now, how could she forget that the Holy Light was born with great harm to evil creatures such as demons and undeads.

But before she could ask about Lance's injuries, the enemies who wanted to stop the queen were surrounded.

"I want you all to die here!"

The Red Dragon Queen was furious, and the giant dragon that was as high as a mountain appeared in a true posture before everyone's eyes. The huge pressure made everyone breathe.

Then, death came. (To be continued...)
