Violet and the Thorn Bird

The kiss was a light touch, and Gal felt the coolness of Borg's lips.It was very cold in the snow, and neither of them felt very well.Borg's dream wasn't good, Gal touched his back, sweat drenched his clothes.

Warlock lay curled up in the snow, and Borg sat up.He felt that the imprint on the back of his neck was calming down, and the feeling of alternating hot and cold was very uncomfortable.

"We need to reassess the opponent's strength." Gal turned over to the warlock, "His magic spell even blinded my eyes, unlike the kid we met before, this is a very powerful guy. But it's strange, I didn't find the puppet .”

"The branch of the warlock." Borg touched the warlock from his chest to his waist, but he didn't find what he expected.He said, "The Alliance of Warlocks used to be active in St. Forth, and manipulating puppets is indeed their main business, but there are also people who are not good at dealing with puppets and delve into magic spells."

This kind of mental coaxing requires psychological hints. Perhaps these guys have already appeared, but they have not noticed it.Borg has been able to determine that he is becoming dull, which may be related to the recent restlessness of the imprint.

"Only two people came, and it seems that they are also very proud of this." Gall looked at the warlock, his face seemed to be aging, and he looked weaker than before.

"It's backfire," Borg said. "He won't survive tonight."

If it hadn't been for Belle to wake up Gal, and then Gall to find the warlock, then these two people are indeed enough.But can just two warlocks be safe?Could there be any backup on the way?The Rose Guard should have reached the east of the Deep Soldiers Forest, but Garr still didn't feel the pleasure of solving the problem.

Borg sensed Garl's unusual concern for the warlock.

"Let's talk in a whisper." Gall said, "Most of the puppets controlled by warlocks are the people they kill, which allows them to send the souls of the dead to the abyss in time, so as to gain the right to exercise their bodies. But there are some differences , You once said that the Warlock Alliance stole the Heroes' Cemetery. Although I haven't met it yet, I guess they may have found a way to replace the soul to obtain the right to exercise. In this way, as long as you can create a body that matches it, what All heroes can be manipulated by them. In fact, this is not a fantasy." Gal felt his chest beating, and he raised his hand to put his hand on the tip of his nose, "For example, I woke up in this way."

Ge Lan and Zhi Shu shaped his body, and what replaced the heart was the tree man's tears.But what was it that woke Gall up?Where did Grant get the idea from?Is Gal also being manipulated by others?

Many questions followed.

Is the current "Gal" really the "Devil King"?But if he is not, then why is Xia Ge's forbidden curse in his left eye?The more he knew about this so-called resurrection, the more doubtful Gal was. His eyes were confused by the memory, and he was unable to distinguish the essence of the matter at this moment.

Gal bit the tip of his tongue and waved to Borg.

Of course he is the Demon King, and his memory of the past is very clear, even how hot the throne is.

the other side.

Gray sat under the crude defense tower, with beer and barbecue piled up around him.Now there was only the firelight of the dwarves in the forest, and the starless night seemed very dark.The cold wind blows through the dead branches, and the boots will make a loud sound when they step on the ground.

"Didn't you see Fanny?" Gray asked his companion while drinking.

"No, she didn't come out of the ground. But the plants climbing at the entrance are healthy, which means she hasn't met the enemy yet." The black cloak took over the barbecue and divided it with a dagger, "Compared to the underground, it's more dangerous here now. The Roseguard have approached the edge of the forest, and our men have seen their horses and equipment. The Greens have shown their devotion to this war."

"A very strong horse," Gray said, biting the meat. "Of course, as you can imagine, it is a specialty of the Greens. Roseanne must have paid a lot of money for the equipment of the army, because the human armor wants to resist the dwarves. An easy thing."

The beer and barbecue allowed Gray to dissipate some of the cold. He stepped on the ax and tapped his shoulder, but the thick leather made no sound.

"We don't even need armor, we only need to swing an ax to face the Grimm. Money can arm Roseanne's army to the teeth, but that's all. The dwarves are better at fighting, maybe we are few, but we will not be afraid .” Gray exhaled, “Although we have no allies.”

"We can ask the Ratmen to help." The black cloak glanced to the south, "They have minions."

"Yes, they have minions." Gray wiped his beard. "But they won't help, because it's not worth it. They are not friends of the dwarves, and they don't get any benefit from helping us." He thought of Gal, and was silent for a while , muttered, "Naked transactions are everywhere in this world, which makes people sick to my stomach."

In the light of the fire, Gray put on his cloak, and he wrapped himself and leaned aside.He has been guarding here for two days, and he has little time to sleep. The progress of the fortifications is driven out by the dwarves around the clock. You can't expect them to resist the Rose Guard Army, but you can expect them to hinder the progress of the Guard Army. The essential.

Gray is always on edge, and his constant drinking of beer is the way to digest it.For a moment he misses when his father was still standing, and it frustrates him a little, because the thought of it proves he's still a kid.

Even the wind died down in the middle of the night.

Gray heard the horn in his sleep, and he got up at once, and grasped his ax in the cold.

"Are they coming?" Gray asked aloud. "Are they coming!"

"In the west!" The dwarves put their axes on their backs. "They are going to attack from the west! The horns of the Greens have sounded!"

"Tighten your belts!" Gray rubbed his palms and raised his arms and shouted, "This will be the time when the dwarves will be feared again! Let the shepherds in the east know who they are about to face!" He was boiling He raised his ax high and spun around in a loud shout, then knelt on the ground and kissed the ground, "Bless the god of the earth, victory belongs to the dwarves!"

The fire in front suddenly raged, Gray dragged the ax and rushed out.

The guard's shield is hard and surprisingly thick.Roseanne gave up the long sword and chose the spear.Roses grew on the new armor, and they formed the shield into a solid wall, which was pierced by the spear when they hit it.The forging ability of dwarves is the best in the world, and no one is willing to compete with them in weapons.Compared to a savage fight, Roseanne prefers to minimize sacrifices and accomplish her goal by killing.

The soil rolled under the snow, and Gray's raised palm drove the soil to protrude into thorns, which penetrated into the shield and became the beginning of the screams of the guards.He slashed off the opponent's head with the axe, and the shield crashed and fell.

If the defense of the shield is lost, it will be difficult for the relatively slender guards to resist the strong dwarves with high fighting spirit, so no matter how the dwarves hit, the shield will only tilt back and will not be abandoned.However, if you get close to the shield, you will face the threat of being stabbed by a spear. The strengths and weaknesses of both sides are equal, and a protracted stalemate will start at the edge of the forest.But soon the dwarves' advantage became difficult to maintain, because the soil manipulated by Gray met the six-pointed star array in the rampage, and the wizards who had been prepared for a long time held their staffs behind the guards.

"As you can see, this is a tragic war." Roseanne clasped her hands. She sat at the table with two peeping eyes floating in front of her. One was the battlefield and the other was the temple.She looked at the battlefield, "Grey is much worse than old Brown, which gives us a little chance to breathe, and thanks to your great help. My supreme master, His Majesty the Pope."

"The temple must maintain the peace of the kingdom." The pope was in the temple, and he was eating dinner. "It is our responsibility to fight for justice. Gray has a good talent, but he is too anxious to leave school and waste too much time in the wilderness. As for becoming mediocre." Touching the knife and fork lightly, he smiled slightly, "Sometimes the wild dog mistakenly thinks that his strength is coincidence, and uses this to deceive many people, but in reality he is not that powerful."

"Borg doesn't seem to be here," Roseanne said.

"Maybe he's still in a dream." The Pope wiped his fingers and leaned back in his chair. "The Goddess of Victory told me that the Greens will get everything. Now, tell me about Arthur, how is my little king?"

"The body is as bad as ever." Roseanne twirled the rose ring on her index finger, "The cold is his worst enemy at this moment."

"I think he's in good spirits." The Pope laughed. "He opened the door for you."

"That's because he has no choice. He is very smart, and judging the situation is his most lovely place." Roseanne said humbly, "This is all given by you. The temple has opened up the safest shelter for the Green family, so we can Survive. Your Majesty fears me, but respects the temple. You are his entrusted person and the elder he trusts. But I am just a wild rose in his eyes, an upstart who herds sheep in the east."

"Belittle yourself is your speaking skill." The Pope tapped his fingertips on his forehead, "Cunning little girl, he has a good relationship with your brother."

Roseanne saw his cuffs slide down, exposing a section of wrist bone, from where the legendary sealing thread of the devil's heart was buried deep into his sleeve.She remained calm, "Randolph's loyalty is unquestionable, but whether His Majesty is equally infatuated with him worries me all the time. After all, as a sister, His Majesty is not a good partner in my opinion, and he will always marry someone else."

"Oh?" The Pope's voice was slow, "Didn't the Greens consider shouldering the lion?"

"We are loyal to our true master." Roseanne's face remained unchanged, "The only master."

"Then let me attach a commendation to this steadfast loyalty." The Pope looked at Roseanne, his eyes seemed to see everything, and cold sweat rolled down the back of Roseanne's smile.But the Pope said softly, "Don't be nervous, it's just a little compliment. When spring comes, let Randolph come here, and I will give him a small gift."

"Thank you for your gift." Roseanne asked carefully, "It makes me very curious."

"Your brother's desire is well known," said the pope. "He has already got one of them, and I will give him the other—the Vulcan mark that was taken by the Borg."

Roseanne was rarely in a daze. She opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer, and her astonished expression pleased the Pope.

"But...there is only one mark." Roseanne's chest was beating violently, and she raised her hand to slightly cover her mouth, "Borg didn't die either."

"The blessing of the true God is the mark." The Pope's eyes slightly curved, "I will give it to him, in the spring. The time is up, and your other team is already in place, and they are waiting for your order. Looking forward to your good news , Roseanne."

The peeping eye stops turning, and the image disappears, turning into fire to illuminate.The battlefield was still going on, but Roseanne kept her posture and sat quietly for half a minute.

what did she hear.

The Pope is going to bestow the Vulcan mark on Randolph, but Borg isn't dead yet!what does that mean?Is Vulcan reappearing, or has Feiji become a true god?If the Pope really became a "god", it would not be good news for Green, because the hand of the temple is longer than that of the royal family, and the title "Master" has revealed Fei Ji's desire to control.Roseanne can bend down to borrow the power of others, but this does not mean that she is willing to let Green abandon the family badge and become someone else's vassal.

"Miss." The peeping eyes dimmed again, and the man on the opposite side was riding on the horse, looking up at the towering shield wall, "We have reached the back of the giant shield, and we are ready to wait for your command at any time."

"There's no need to wait." Roseanne settled down, "Let Zilo use him to the end, to give the dwarves a late-night surprise." Then she stood up, "Let the person who was handed over from the Free Mercenary Group come to see me last time, I want to know if Borg is in good shape."

Gray was scrambled by the wizard, and the clay was hindered by the fireball, leaving him in a pinch.

"You guys are working together!" Gray leaned against a shield, turned it over vigorously, and swung an ax to split the armor. "The Pope is also spying on the dwarves' territory!"

The iron locks laid by the dwarves clamped the defenders' ankles. Under Gray's leadership, the dwarves dragged the guards to the ground, causing the shields to collapse.

Gray kicked away the corpses on the high ground and climbed up to a relatively high place.He raised his ax and shouted, "Fight! Cut off their heads! We don't need any prisoners! Go ahead boys! The dirt will protect you..."

The ground shook first, and Gray thought it was the movement of the soil rising, but he quickly realized that it was definitely not the case, because at the same time as the vibration was violent, there was a piercing explosion.A huge star array pulled out from the sky behind him, and fireballs rushed down like rain.The dwarves all held their heads, and Gray turned his head.

"No..." Gray lamented in disbelief.

He saw that the mighty shield that he had sworn "will never collapse" suddenly fell under the heavy blow of the fireball.

No.

Gray staggered down, he ran there.

Do not!

Dwarven houses were smashed and buried, and wailing was heard throughout the forest.The star array is still raining fireballs, and the dead branches on the ground are burning.

Cal's voice seemed to echo in his ears.

"The wall is very old."
