Chapter 516: Concealment and Suspicion

"Do you think that you can completely absolve yourself of responsibility by saying 'you are also victims'?"

However, Sid did not buy into Talina's explanation.

"Hand over the murderer and the Sword of the King Chosen, or start the war immediately. I will not repeat it for the third time!"

Sid laughed in anger and stared at Talina fiercely. Under him, the golden dragon, which was as big as a hill, also roared and was ready for battle.

"First, Skarsa is currently in a state of mental sleep. I can't give you any answer until he wakes up and finds out the situation.

Second, are you sure that what your prophet foresaw is the truth? As the magic world has developed to this day, there have been more than one secret technique that can interfere with the results of the prophecy. At our level, I think you should also know these.

Finally, the sword that Skarsa brought back was just a counterfeit, and I will not repeat it for the third time."

Standing on the top of the Arcane Tower, Talina clenched her Silver Moon Heart Staff, her silver eyes staring at the golden knight standing on the back of the pure golden dragon in front of her, and spoke in a cold tone, not afraid of the opponent's threat.

Although her strength has only reached the old ninth-level level, for high-level spellcasters, the combat effectiveness will be far different with and without the blessing of the Mage Tower.

As one of the four great families, the Enoch family is famous for its profound magical attainments. No one can run wild against the people of the Enoch family in the Thousand Towers Forest of Magnum, not even the ninth-level dragon knight.

"... I often hear people say that if the Thousand Towers City of the Enoch family is fully operational, its power is even comparable to the floating city of the Continental Magic Council."

Holding the hilt of the sword behind his back with both hands, Sid pulled out the dark golden giant sword with mysterious patterns from his back inch by inch.

In this process, the invisible momentum exuded by his whole body gradually began to rise. When the giant sword was almost completely pulled out, the huge pressure was almost turned into substance, making the air stagnant and stopped flowing.

"It seems that I, Sid, will have the honor to experience the power of the world-famous Thousand Towers Forest of the Enoch family today."

The cold words fell, and under the momentum that had been raised to the limit, Sid's arm muscles bulged, as if holding a mountain, and he slashed at Talina very slowly.

The air showed a strange distortion wherever the sword passed. It was as if a drop of detergent suddenly dripped on the surface of an oil painting, melting all the paint into one piece.

This is the result of attacking with the power of rules. When the operating rules of the surface world are distorted, things that exist by relying on the world itself will also be inevitably distorted and destroyed.

Facing this terrible attack, Talina's eyes were extremely calm. With the staff emitting silver moonlight in her hand raised high, a huge hexagonal translucent magic barrier instantly blocked the front of the slash.

At the same time, the Thousand Towers Forest behind her glowed at the same time, and an incredible power was bestowed on her, which suddenly greatly increased her ability to control the rules.

The next moment, the slash collided with the barrier.

There was no earth-shattering momentum or blazing light. At the place where the collision occurred, everything turned into a strange black mass. Even the concepts of "sound" and "light" were distorted and obliterated.

After a very short stalemate, the concept of "blocking" of the barrier was also distorted, breaking a large chaotic hole, but the second and third layers of defense barriers continued to block the slash.

When this slash penetrated the twelve layers of barriers in succession and was less than fifty meters away from the main body of the magic tower, it was finally blocked by the thirteenth layer of barrier and disintegrated into the invisible with it.

"... It's a good tortoise shell."

Seeing this scene, Sid's eyebrows were slightly raised.

Although the previous sword seemed to be not very powerful, he had really used all his strength. In his estimation, this slash could at least cause minor rule injuries to [Silver Moon Traveler] himself.

But things were a little different from what he thought. Although it seemed difficult, the other party used the help of those magic towers to really block his attack.

"Hmph! Not bad... Fontis, please!"

Finding that his normal form seemed to have no way to deal with Talina, Sid snorted coldly, closed his eyes, and then opened them again. When his pupils completely turned into vertical pupils like a giant dragon, his entire aura instantly merged with the giant dragon under him.

"Roar--!"

The violent magic storm burst out from Sid's body, and the huge momentum even affected the celestial phenomena, causing heavy lead clouds like the eye of a storm to gather in the sky, covering the entire forest of thousands of towers.

"Don't let someone use you as a pawn for nothing, Sir Sid."

Looking coldly at the arrogant golden dragon in the sky, Talina poked the ground with her staff, and countless silver-white lines spread out from the end of the staff, flowing and climbing along the lines on the surface of the entire Mage Tower, and even made the thousands of towers behind it emit a faint silver light at the same time.

A creepy sense of crisis instantly enveloped Sid's body. Even though he moved several times in an instant, this sense of danger always locked him like a thorn in his flesh.

"..."

Silence.

After both sides revealed their trump cards, they fell into a special state of confrontation.

Both sides can feel that in this state, the next attack collision is likely to cause unpredictable serious consequences.

In this case, both sides had deep concerns in their hearts.

Even the bellicose Aslade must consider whether it is worth engaging in a deadly battle that may lead to hundreds of years of rest when the authenticity of the target is questionable.

"... Sir Sid, before you arrived, we had also made a prophecy, so we can understand your current mood.

But the injuries suffered by Skatha are very strange and cannot be explained by the aftermath of the ruins' self-destruction. I hope that we can stop temporarily and thoroughly find out what happened before deciding how to act. "

Maintaining this state of intimidation, Talina suddenly spoke.

Since both sides have serious concerns, it means that it is possible to solve the problem through methods other than fighting.

"...Give me that sword and I'll leave."

Looking at the Forest of Thousand Towers below with a gloomy expression, Sid suddenly spoke after a while.

"I can only decide and give you half."

After thinking about it, Talina also spoke and took a step back.

After a moment, watching the golden dragon disappear from the clouds, Talina turned around and entered the tower with the other half of the broken sword.

"According to the fragment of fate, someone from the other two families is also involved in this matter, right? Arrange manpower, I need to find out their situation."
