Volume 4: The Winds and Clouds of the Western Blue Sky Chapter 57: Cutting Steel
“Stop!” The Fairy of the Lake was now a little overwhelmed. The light on her body became brighter and a terrifying aura began to condense.
At this moment, Qi Ji suddenly realized that this beautiful woman actually possessed extremely terrifying strength.
This kind of oppressive feeling is absolutely impossible for the fourth level.
At least level five!
He looked at the Fairy of the Lake warily and asked calmly, "Why? I heard that elves like you are very strict in abiding by rules and agreements. Are you going back on your word?"
The breath of the lake fairy was suddenly choked.
Qi Ji was right. For elves like her who were born by heaven and earth, their powers were bestowed by the world. Others could violate oaths and rules at will, but if they violated them, at best their magic powers would disappear, and at worst they would even have difficulty maintaining their lives.
Although Qi Ji's method of "pulling out" the Broken Steel Sword was a trick, it was in a sense within the rules, so she could not use this as a reason to punish the other party.
If anyone was to blame, it was because she was bewitched by Qi Ji's aura, which was less than the third level, and did not extend the power of confinement to the entire land around him.
She was about to argue and find a new excuse to make Qi Ji give up, or continue to complete a trial as she requested.
The next moment, an old sigh appeared out of nowhere in the air.
Hearing this voice, the Fairy of the Lake was shocked.
After a long silence, she asked in a trembling voice, "Merlin, is that you?"
"It's me."
"Why does your voice sound so old?" She found something wrong.
"I am a human. A thousand years is too long for a human..." There was a hint of bitterness in Merlin's old voice.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Regret flashed across the face of the Fairy of the Lake. "If you had told me earlier..."
"It's no use saying it earlier. The imitation of the 'Chain of Heaven' also possesses an irresistible force. It's only now that I have a chance to break free. Please let this knight go. Just consider it as helping me." Merlin said seriously.
Qi Ji could no longer hear any communication between Merlin and the Fairy of the Lake. He could only see that the Fairy of the Lake, who had been looking like a shrew, gradually smiled.
Apparently, Merlin's face still works.
After a while, the fairy of the lake floated over, looked at Qi Ji with a smile, then moved her fingers slightly and a wave was emitted.
I saw that there was a huge stone weighing at least several tons hanging on the broken steel sword in Qi Ji's hand, and now the stone fell off and fell to the ground.
The gorgeous, gleaming broken steel sword was revealed in its entirety.
She smiled at Qi Ji and said, "Knight, there was a misunderstanding just now. You can go back now. Hurry up."
Qi Ji nodded and immediately said goodbye.
Unexpectedly, the Lake Fairy thought about it and called him back: "I originally wanted to give you a reward after you passed my lake bottom test. Now that you have indeed pulled out the Broken Steel Sword, I will bless you as well."
Compared with the previous movement of her fingers, she seemed to be particularly serious in casting the spell this time. She chanted mysterious syllables, and a large number of extraordinary factors between heaven and earth quickly gathered together, and then condensed into a strange rune in front of her.
The next second, as her chanting ended, she pointed her slender finger lightly at Qi Ji, and then the rune flew towards Qi Ji quickly and instantly sank into his chest.
[You have accepted the blessing of the Lake Fairy Vivian——"The Blessing of the Elves"]
[Protection of the Elves: A blessing from the elves. The recipient of the blessing will have priority in receiving the favor of luck in any situation.]
Wow, does this count as luck +1?
Qi Ji nodded with satisfaction, then formally said goodbye to Vivian again.
This time, it’s a real farewell.
…
At night, Qi Ji returned to the Fairy Island safely.
Then they soon arrived in front of the altar where Merlin was. In addition to Merlin, there were also Lani and many fairies flying back and forth in the air.
Obviously, everyone was waiting for Qi Ji.
Lani smiled and looked at Qi Ji: "I didn't expect it. I thought the journey would take at least three days, but you've already returned on the second day."
"It's because I'm afraid of delaying important business that I'm always on the road." Qi Ji said with a smile.
As he said this, he looked at Merlin who was chained in the air and said, "Merlin the wise, I have fulfilled my mission and retrieved the Broken Steel Sword."
Merlin floated in the air, looking at Qi Ji with a smile, his eyes full of approval.
He smiled and said, "This trip is indeed going well, so let go of your hand."
Upon hearing this, Qi Ji immediately did as he was told and gently loosened his hand holding the broken steel sword. However, he found that the broken steel sword did not fall down because of his loosening of his hand, but floated up quickly.
Merlin moved his fingers slightly, and the broken steel sword began to tremble along with his fingers.
Merlin said solemnly: "The Broken Steel Sword contains the power of the concept of "Domination and Destruction". Although after so many years since Arthur's death, the concept on it has become as thin as the concept of the chain that locks me, it can still withstand the next few attacks."
After saying this, a lot of divine light suddenly emerged from his eyes, and then countless golden lights immediately ignited on the broken steel sword like flames.
The next second, he hooked his finger.
whoosh!
The broken steel sword turned into a stream of light and instantly cut the chain wrapped around his right hand into pieces!
After his right hand was free, Merlin's command became faster. In an instant, the broken steel sword flew and slashed continuously, and with just a few strokes, all the chains on Merlin's limbs and waist were cut off. Only the chain tied around Merlin's neck was still faithfully maintaining its mission.
Merlin smiled happily and swung his arm. The broken steel sword, which was on the verge of collapse and dissipation due to consuming too much conceptual power, emitted a final dazzling golden light and flew to his neck almost in an instant.
At this moment, something strange happened!
Suddenly, a huge amount of black air emerged from Merlin's eyes.
From the void came overlapping vibration sounds, hoarse and evil, like demons and ghosts. Just hearing it made people excited and almost faint.
"Merlin! Did you think I had disappeared?"
"In fact, I've been waiting for this moment! I'll use this remaining soul to stop you at the last moment and make you fail ! Hahahahaha!"
"Ni! Miao!" Merlin's face turned pale, and he said a name with great reluctance.
Nimue is the fallen fairy, the dark opposite of Lady of the Lake Vivian, and the evil being who deceived and plotted against Merlin thousands of years ago.
Merlin thought he had destroyed it, but he didn't expect...
A large amount of black gas blocked the magic power he used to control the Broken Steel Sword, and the golden concept fire of the Broken Steel Sword had burned to the extreme at this moment and would soon dissipate.
By then, who knows how many years this final chain will lock up this great sage.
The magic of darkness and the pure magic of Merlin surged at a high speed, and the aftermath of the confrontation suppressed the witch Lani and the magical creatures and fairies present, making them unable to move.
At this extremely urgent moment, a strong hand firmly grasped the broken steel sword wrapped in golden light that was trembling in the air and had not been cut down yet!
It was a slender, beautiful, yet powerful right hand.
The next second, Qi Ji, who was holding the broken steel sword tightly, had a blank look in his eyes. A vertical eye-like pattern appeared between his eyebrows, and his whole body exuded an extremely terrifying aura.
Formless·Pattern·Crazy Armor!
Even bring the double burst created by the hero!
He was like a god in the wind, riding on the wind, leaving countless phantoms behind him, and swung the broken steel sword fiercely at the illusory chain behind Merlin's neck!
The god of ignorance and style——Jiao!
Snap!
The chain and the broken steel sword collided with each other, and the two golden lights collided violently.
The next second, the sword and the lock broke at the same time!
