Wizarding World Beekeeper

There was almost no obstruction, and the sword edge split the abyss crack in half from the middle.

what sound?

There was a strange noise coming from the gap in the abyss, like... the sound of a horn.

It lasted only a second and then ended abruptly.

The two abyss cracks also suddenly shrank to nothing.

The pulsating panic in the air was gone.

The laser emitted by the fire also retracted at the same time.

The mass of black energy let out a shrill roar, and a slender figure fell from it.

Uno's whole body was filled with black energy, and he lay on the ground, roaring in this direction.

Hua Mi was holding the Demon-Breaking Sword, sweating profusely.

it hurts!

Neurotoxins had entered his body, and the pain that penetrated into his bone marrow was constantly stimulating his brain.

It hurt so much that he almost wanted to chop off the hand.

However, Uno was still yelling at him at this time, which made him even more upset.

I saw Uno getting up from the ground, staggering towards him like an evil ghost wrapped in black energy.

Hua Mi cursed, stood up and raised his heavy sword.

Just then, there was a muffled bang.

The fire exploded in a circle of fire in all directions.

Hua Mi subconsciously blocked the Demon-Breaking Sword in front of her and saw the shock wave sweeping across Uno.

The latter's whole body immediately ignited with raging flames, and in less than half a second, his entire body was turned into powder in the flames.

After the fire marks spread to a certain distance, they quickly retracted.

The entire fire suddenly shrunk to the size of a ping pong ball, and stopped burning. Its brightness suddenly decreased, and it hung there quietly, like an ordinary luminous pearl.

Hua Mi held the hilt of the sword, the tip of the sword touched the ground, looked up at the sky, there was endless melancholy in his eyes - he was numb with pain.

But then he discovered something unusual.

"Why does it feel like the sky is getting darker?"

Outside the dome, the storm vortex was still there, making thunderous sounds when it collided with the sky, but the skyfire looked much dimmer, and the brightness of the entire city also dropped significantly.

How long can the fire continue to supply energy to the sky?

"It needs to be restarted... Fire needs to be restarted."

Can Can came here at some unknown time, looked at Hua Mi with some fear, and whispered.

"How to restart?"

"The fire has entered a self-locking state, and you need to use the magic-breaking sword in your hand to split its shell..." Can said respectfully, "Only you can do it here."

"..."

Hua Mi glanced at the fire and found that there seemed to be a light shell surrounding it.

Just split it open?

Kaka——

There was a heart-stopping shattering sound from the sky.

Looking up, a gap has opened in the sky.

"It must be done as soon as possible. Without fire power, the sky will not last long." Can Can said eagerly.

Hua Mi had no time to hesitate and raised the Demon-Breaking Sword again.

The fire slaves below suddenly started shouting in unison, which sounded like some ancient bronze musical instruments playing at the same time.

After asking the cans later, I found out that they were calling "The Sword Bearer".

Amidst the shouts of all the fire slaves.

Hua Mi held swords in both hands.

Woo——

The broad blade swept across the barely visible shell.

The fire quickly returned to its normal size, and pale flames ignited on it.

Immediately afterwards, a white light rose into the sky and reached the sky.

…

"Abyss scholar?"

The voice of King Huonu echoed in the hall: "What is an abyss scholar?"

Alais replied: "After the second abyss invasion, a new profession emerged. Mainly responsible for researching the abyss..."

"Study the Abyss?!" King Huo Slave's tone increased significantly, "You are really crazy!"

The fire slaves in the main hall whispered.

Dang Dang Dang——

King Huonu clapped his hands to silence them, and then said: "We originally showed great kindness to the elves, but the companions you brought made a big mistake and almost destroyed our city. If I still I’m afraid my people won’t agree if I treat you as an honored guest.”

Alais remained silent.

Hua Mi glanced at her.

At that time, after the abyss crack was closed, Alais immediately returned to normal.

This makes people wonder if her abnormal behavior at that time was related to the abyss?

Thinking of her strange red eyes at that time, it was obviously not as simple as an ordinary disease.

curse?

still……

Although she was curious, Hua Mi did not ask her.

Seeing her being speechless by the Fire Slave King, she felt inexplicably happy.

The arrogance inherent in elves makes it difficult for them to listen to other people's opinions - and as a top figure in a certain field, her flaw is even more serious.

She is convinced of her own decisions and does not consider what others think.

Hua Mi had warned her to be careful about Uno more than once before, but she had always been stubborn and never took his words seriously.

After this incident, I don’t know if I will have a long memory.

"From now on, you are no longer welcome in the City of Brass."

King Huonu announced his "sentence" to her.

Alais didn't say anything, but just bowed according to etiquette, saying that he had no objection.

"As for you," King Huonu turned to Hua Mi and said, "Although you also bear the same responsibility as her, you showed extraordinary courage and strength at a critical moment, and single-handedly saved Bronze The city, I think, can outweigh its merits and demerits.”

The fire slaves nearby all made sounds of approval.

"You are still welcome in the City of Brass, Sword Bearer!"

…

While waiting for the fire to return to stability, the fire slaves on both sides made a temporary truce and reached an agreement after discussion—not to have contact with the main world for the time being.

Alais also promised not to disclose the coordinates of the City of Brass.

Hua Mi got a pack of seeds from the "Mother Goddess' Gift" as she wished, as well as some other bits and pieces of alchemy materials.

On this journey, there was also an unexpected harvest of the Blue Fire Bee.

In addition, he also gained some information and the friendship of the fire slaves.

He said that "the merits are equal to the faults", but the fire slaves actually worshiped him.

After all, he was the first person after King Lulu to lift the Demon-Breaking Sword.

The fire slaves all called him "The Sword Bearer".

The Fire Slave Kings on both sides reached an agreement and gave him the right to use the Demon-Breaking Sword.

He also forged a magic-blocking gold nameplate and gave it to him as a certificate, with "Sword Holder" written on it in human and Huonu languages ​​respectively.

It’s a right of use, not ownership.

As the most precious treasure of the Huo Slave clan, the Demon-Breaking Sword cannot be given away casually.

It belongs to the City of Brass forever.

Hua Mi didn't have any objections to this. "Sword Bearer" sounded very powerful, so it must be just an honorary title.

Although the Demon-Breaking Sword has a very powerful demon-banning effect, it is difficult to operate, especially for humans.

It's okay for short bursts, but who can bear using this thing for a long time without straining a muscle?

Due to its own magic-forbidden effect, space equipment cannot be stored in it and can only be carried around. Think about how far you can go carrying this thing, I'm afraid you will run out of energy before you reach your destination.

…

After about three days, the fire returned to stability.

Alais built a portal in the square where he came from and opened the passage.

Before leaving, a group of fire slaves came to see him off.

Of course, they are all here to see off the "sword bearer" Hua Mi.

They were rather indifferent to Alais.

After passing through the plane passage, the two travelers returned to Alais's study smoothly.

Outside the window is the familiar black forest.

Familiar air, familiar sounds of nature.

Hua Mi suddenly felt much more at ease.

"Before departure, you never said that this trip would be so dangerous, and you bear the main responsibility for this danger."

Hua Mi paused and said, "I have to pay more."

"I can satisfy your needs for free in the future. Is this enough?"

"OK."

After receiving such a promise from a top architect, many people were so envious that their teeth were sore, and he had no choice but to act cheaply.

"But you provide the materials yourself. I don't have time to collect them for you."

Alais said as he started to pack his things: "I need to return to Emerald City immediately. The Abyss is ready to move, and the Abyss Research Association is no longer trustworthy. Emerald City must know this as soon as possible."

Hua Mi understood her mood: "I have to go back quickly. I don't know how the greenhouse is doing."
