Steel steam and flame

"The Holy Emperor's Hall has now become the enemy of most forces?" Someone among the three asked, but later he answered himself, "This is just that many people are afraid that after the Holy Emperor's Hall succeeds, the Holy Fathers will not give it to them. Let others leave a way to survive. So I have to put more obstacles in the way."

"If the Holy Fathers are willing to share some of their achievements over such a long time, and if their style of doing things in the past is slightly gentler, so that others can see their absolute credibility and build a good reputation for themselves, then in this forest at this moment , there won’t be so many high-level surgeons wearing masks. This time the time will end a long time ago, how could it be delayed until now and the stalemate is here?" Defoni was very angry, but his tone Some of them lamented, "If we do this, those few people will not be sitting in the position of the Holy Father."

"Our strength is limited. In this short period of time, if we can liberate a certain high-level combat force on Qila Andi's side, it will be the best result for us to descend from the Deep Blue Realm."

Defoni looked behind him when he spoke: "You three have been studying behind me for a long time. This time it is time for me, the teacher, to check your self-study results."

"It's very difficult, Master Defoni." The man whom Defoni called Molocher smiled bitterly, "According to the information given to us in the communication not long ago, the person more than forty kilometers ahead is very likely to be The instructor of the Saint Dorag Military School is Bei Dao. The strength of those who can compete with him can be imagined. This time, there are three people standing on the side of the Holy Emperor's Hall who are the most threatening people. Break away. McOnis of the Chiraandi family, Satric who was able to escape from the black dragon Monikoloa, and the remaining one is Otto, the remote priest of the Holy Emperor Hall. Each of them is a fifth-stage surgeon. Among them, we are the most famous people. The three of us..."

"In front of the teacher and the three of them, we are just nobody." The only woman in the team said. He has short hair, a tall figure, and wears a tight-fitting leather battle suit. There are black and gray wooden armors on his knees and elbows, and the handles of two short scimitars are exposed from the back of his waist. And there is not much difference from this female member. Molocher and the other member have the same configuration at the elbows and knees, with armor with a strong wooden texture.

"In the southern forest, except for Cassia, the center of the incident, MacOnis and the others are three small centers surrounding Cassia. They are destined to attract everything around them. The country has also informed us long ago that the Theocracy is coming. The eleven people in the country have set out secretly. They were only used as a deterrent at first. They must have received the latest order soon after, and they need to put this deterrence into action, not just stand there and face this. Looking at the forest in the distance. If they really have the idea of ​​​​taking action, they will definitely capture the key figures from the Qilaandi family. Simply transform the relationship, that is, Otto and Satric."

"Maybe at this moment, in other places, there are others preparing on the edge like us."

"The eleven people in the Theocracy are thinking this way, and the Saint Dorag Empire must be thinking the same way. They will definitely have a team from the Empire to contain and deal with it, I think." Another male member said, "Hidden in the People in the dark are the most dangerous, because hiding means that most of the information about these people is unknown, and once they come out in front of everyone, they won’t have much time to think.”

Defoni looked at the discussion of the three adjutants and students behind him with great interest. He was also like this when he was young, the only difference was that at that time he thought more comprehensively and was stronger. However, the status of this discussion is a good thing.

"Don't worry too much about strength. Even if the opponent is Bordeaux's opponent, with your current strength, it is absolutely feasible to ensure that you will not be killed all at once." Defoni seemed to be incapable of saying comforting words. When he saw the three The students all had wry smiles and helpless expressions. He continued, "Only by feeling the feeling of walking on the edge of death from time to time can we maintain a positive mood. At the fifth stage, in addition to competing for resources, the rest is related to one's own will. You know this very well. In the fifth stage, there is no need to worry about the danger of alienation and withering of assimilation and fusion, but similarly, if you want to go further and complete your own evolution, there is no way to activate your own potential without relying on your own will."

"Even if we include the history of the Theocracy and the Natural Society, people who transcend the five stages of surgery and become the second type of creatures without relying on other means can be counted with two hands and ten fingers. How many. You must know that the population base of the three continents, plus the surrounding island communities, is based on trillions. Such a huge base, or such a long time, can only have so many people, you should know It’s so difficult. One of the reasons why the Theocratic State and the Nature Association are so fond of the Saint Dorag Empire is this. Having said that, the environment you are in now cannot be said to be a greenhouse or a laboratory. No medium is too much.”

Defoni was very impressed, with a smile on his face: "I won't talk about it beyond the fifth stage. You are still far from the top of the fifth stage. You have to work harder. Almost every era will emerge. A large number of famous and powerful people represent the five-stage pyramid of that era. I hope to see your names appear among that group of people while I am alive."

"Having said that, this is also the reason why there are always a large number of famous and powerful people during wars. No matter the environment during the war, the intensity of the battle, or the desire to survive and become stronger, they will all passively reach the top. If you don't grow, surviving is the best outcome. Otherwise, death is fair to everyone, including us surgeons."

"I will watch you carefully from the sidelines." Defoni took a breath after finishing speaking, "I am very optimistic about the potential of the three of you. This is why you will be selected and why I am willing to accept you as my students. Speaking of which, during the last war, Bolei and I met on the battlefield several times. Although in the end everyone said that I was the most famous person after the last war, as an opponent at that time, what did Bolei do? You must have seen it in the information."

"Please treat it with care!" Defoni finally reminded. After receiving nods from the three students, he turned around, put on the mask hanging on his waist, and suddenly stood still for two or three seconds, then raised his hand and stepped forward. wave. The next moment, the solidified shadows of the four people suddenly disintegrated. There was a sudden explosion in the air here, and countless fallen leaves rolled up and were torn into pieces by the wind. Four closely spaced human-shaped air passages slowly appeared at this time, extending to the place in front that was blocked by numerous ancient trees. A twisted horizontal hurricane was generated out of thin air, and followed the human-shaped passage, sweeping forward at a rapid speed.

Everyone exceeds the speed of sound. What is a fifth-stage surgeon? Steel is no different from soft clay in front of them. Their own energy can exceed that of a fleet of airships. With their speed, defense and flexibility, they can be seen as moving humanoid natural disasters or as a whole. In a small extreme area, you can rely on the bioelectric induction force field and your own surgical development ability route to create various fantasy scenes that only exist in fantasy books.

Each person is wrapped in an invisible and colorless film. The four of them move forward at a speed of more than 500 meters per second. The distance of more than 40 kilometers is only a matter of more than a minute.

But just a little later than Defoni and the others, with a certain area of ​​the forest as the center, the vibrations caused by the rapid running also appeared from the other two directions, all moving closer to the center.

But it's too late. In terms of speed, the other two directions are also slightly slower.

At this moment, the two people in the central area also noticed the strange movement around them. With their heads, it was impossible not to know what the surrounding energy reactions and vibrations meant. These situations were expected by both of them. They both understood that they would become the center of a small whirlpool, and before they came to the southern forest, or before they landed on the ground from the airship, both sides would list out a variety of situations. , conduct analysis, and formulate corresponding plans.

They did not retreat due to the commotion around them, because in their respective heads, this situation had been arranged long ago - either several groups of people rushed here, and then everyone started a melee; The respective teams intercepted each other on the way and started their own battles. Except that the battle areas were adjacent, nothing else remained the same.

The battle continued, but the vibration in a certain direction became stronger and stronger. It was the sound of running at high speed, and the two people present were familiar with it. In just a few breaths, even if the other party tried his best to hide it, it was still captured by perception.

The two people at the center began to have doubts, and the battle between them also began to discuss how to reduce their strength. Because neither of them knew what was going on with the member who was approaching quickly. According to the plan or analysis and simulation, the people approaching can come from one direction, but due to mutual checks and balances, there must be two teams or two different groups to meet expectations.

When both parties were speculating and analyzing, thinking that it was the other party's additional support, the energy body in the perception suddenly separated into two, finally allowing both of them to let go of most of their wariness at the same time.

The two stood apart at this time, hundreds of meters apart, in a tacit understanding, waiting for the two teams to arrive. At this moment, the people arriving were only a few thousand meters away, which was just two or three breaths away.

After a breath and a half, two separate teams, a total of four people, appeared in the flat and open field created by the battle between the two. After another half breath, the four of them were only two kilometers away from each other.

"Dong..." At this moment, a loud noise broke out. The ground melted instantly, countless gray and black dust was generated, and then it was given power. A large man-made smoke bomb spread instantly, covering a radius of several hundred meters.

"Ha! It's Otto!" The excited voice rang out, but when it saw the gray and black dust that spread instantly, the voice suddenly became darker, "He has been discovered! He is going to run, all attack!"

"Brother Bolei, hurry up and catch up. At least you have to cripple Otto. We don't have much time!"
