The Devil Priest and the Brave Beautiful Girl

"Bang! Bang!" Ulysses panted and beat the ground with his scarred hands. The memories from the past made him feel more uncomfortable than physical pain. Countless fragments of the blurred picture flashed before his eyes, and finally turned into the lonely silver figure standing on the hill of swords.

There was no one beside her, standing alone on the hill made up of countless weapons, but her back was not shaken in the slightest, as if there was the only place suitable for her.

"... My body exists to protect justice. Never retreat! Never give up! This body is the sword of infinity!" Above the endless wasteland with countless weapons, a firm and powerful voice was on the ground. Reverberating above, it seems to announce something...

"Enough!" Ulysses raised his right hand angrily, summoned to destroy the fist lock, and blasted the ground below his feet with his last strength.

"Boom! Boom!" The already fragile ground exploded again. Amidst the rising smoke and dust, Ulysses was the lonely and sad figure.

"Go back... Go back to everyone, Kanka's commission hasn't been completed yet..." Ulysses looked around blankly, and quickly found the location of Sophia City. Leaving this sad place with his shaky body.

five minutes later……

A silver trajectory broke through the air from a distance, and then suddenly stopped in the air tens of meters above the ground. "This power..." The silver light gradually dissipated, Noah's figure appeared in the air, and three pairs of silver steel sword wings opened behind her. Although he was wearing a mask, the voice that was astonished to the uttermost could not be hidden.

She flew over from the festival venue temporarily after receiving the news of a huge explosion outside Sophia City. As the owner of the Silver Sword Angel, she has the mobility beyond the reach of other seventh-level powerhouses, so she is not the first to know this. The news she flew here first.

The traces of the battlefield are clear at a glance, without any cover up, this is definitely not the damage that one or two seventh-level powerhouses can cause. This kind of absolute power that completely smashed several kilometers of ground and easily leveled the mountains, without even thinking about it, it was definitely two eighth-level powerhouses (or maybe beasts) who fought a decisive battle here.

If this battle takes place in the city of Sofia, I am afraid that, except for the palace and a few areas, the entire city of Sofia will be crushed to ruins.

Since an eighth-level powerhouse has the power to destroy a country (yes, it is complete destruction, not defeat), on the mainland, the eighth-level powerhouse is not regarded as "human" by the kings, but Treat it as a "national" unit.

In the known places where the eighth-level powerhouses live, each country has very obvious marks, which means that it is not an area where the king's power can be used. Similarly, there is such a mark for the eighth-level monsters that are too powerful. Hydra, sleeping in the Kalal Mountains, is the default "lord of Kalal" by all countries and forces. Basically, the Kalal Mountains are its territory.

In these special areas, it is still barely the territory of the country on the bright side, but in fact the eighth-level strong living in this area is the one who can decide everything. Places like the Supreme Mountain of the Supreme Sect and the General Assembly of the Sorcerer's Union are already completely independent of the mainland country, and no king can put on airs there.

"Unexpectedly, I don't know which two started the war here. It's a pity that the duel of the eighth-level strong is not so easy to see." Io of the Wizards Guild walked leisurely on a six-pointed magic circle. Flew to Noah's side and looked at the man-made basin a few kilometers on the ground with great interest.

"Io, do you have any information about this battle?" Noah asked without emotion.

"A little bit, it has something to do with you. Half an hour ago, someone in the Sofia branch of the Wizards Guild witnessed a very special silver trajectory in the sky, very similar to the flying posture of your silver sword angel. Then there seemed to be an explosion in the air. Soon thereafter, it was a huge explosion here." Io answered Noah's question while slowly falling to the ground. After stepping on the ground and testing the temperature of the ground with his hands, he was shocked, showing a thoughtful expression.

"This power is..."

"Me? Impossible. Half an hour ago, I was still resting at the branch of the festival." Noah shook his head, denying his statement about this matter.

She is not alone in the seventh-level powerhouse with flying power. What's more, if the guess is correct, this is a trace of the fierce battle between two powerful men with eighth-level strength. For the eighth-level powerhouse, even without flying treasures, he can fly in the sky with his own magic power alone.

Soon after the arrival of Noah and Io, other seventh-level powerhouses also arrived. The scale of this battle is really too big, even if it is a hundred kilometers away, it can be noticed. Especially that huge explosion awakened half of Sophia's people. Many people's windows cracked because of the explosion, which is enough to show how powerful the explosion was.

"Oh my God, how much power is needed to blow up the ground like this!"

"Look at that mountain, it seems to be blasted away from inside!"

"Where did the strong come from fighting here, so close to Sofia, aren't they afraid of affecting ordinary people!"

"There is still temperature on the ground. It shouldn't be long before the battle is over. I don't know who won the final victory..."

Like Noah, most people believed that this was the trace left by the duel of two eighth-level powerhouses. After all, this destructive power is really shocking. And which of the two eighth-level powerhouses are, it is very debatable. Some people think it is the Nobel known as the "King of Destruction", and some people think it is Lavoisier, the great wizard of the fire system. Among the eighth-level powerhouses, these two well-known saboteurs on the mainland have caused a super-big explosion more than once, and the land flattened by them is probably equivalent to a country.

And Ulysses, one of the culprits of all this, was struggling on the way home, completely unaware that his battle with Buster had caused such a commotion.

"Huh! Huh!" As he used the power far exceeding his limit again, and after using the Dark Scar of Destruction, he even used the Scar of Sinning that he hadn't cultivated at all. Ulysses' body was really gone. It's about to collapse. He could even clearly hear the wailing of nerves injured because of too much strength.

Every step I take will bring huge pain to myself. During the battle, when the power of the domain of infinite desire burns frantically because of Ulysses's desire to fight, the body is like a tensioned string, which seems to be able to strengthen and fight unlimitedly. But after the battle is over, only after the string that has been tightened or even stretched over the limit is slackened, can you see how serious the consequences of reluctantly overdrawing one's limit power are.

Although he hadn't lost his physical strength, he could still walk on, but his eyes had already begun to blur. Vaguely, the city of Sophia began to become more and more distant, as if it was already a distant place that could never be reached again.

"Going back...Aya, Farrie, Helen, they are still waiting for me..." Ulysses's mind flashed across the faces of the girls of the Apostles, if they fell down here, They will be very worried.

Don't let people see him in pain, and definitely can't become a burden to others. Smile, face them with a smile anyway. He didn't want them to see him like this, this embarrassing look.

No matter how painful it is, how sad it is, he can survive it. This bit of pain is nothing.

"Little Yuna, if you encounter painful things or sad things, don't cry. Smile, smile. As long as you smile, no matter how sad things are, things will be weakened; so, laugh, when you laugh The cutest." In the memory, Aunt Lana pulled his face seriously and asked him to smile slowly. Perhaps, she just simply didn't want to see him cry.

"Smile... ugly face... Can't let Farrie and Helen see such a face..." Walking to the side of a stream, Ulysses saw his face that was so pale that there was hardly any blood. , Shook his head helplessly. If he was seen by Farrie and the others, he would definitely be worried to death.

"It's really ugly, are you hurt? Strange, why do I think you are familiar..." A certain Ulysses' familiar voice sounded across the stream. The owner of the voice seemed a little confused, as if the presence of Ulysses made her a little confused.

"You are..." Ulysses reluctantly raised his head and saw a somewhat unexpected person.
