However, at this moment, a sense of foreboding suddenly flashed through his mind. He was very familiar with this feeling - he had also had this feeling when the old goblin used the prophet's ability to guide him. Isidor held his sword and looked around, but he did not see any enemies, and there was no sign that the evil creatures in the square had been attacked. Although it was night, the moon was high in the sky and the weather was clear. With Emmeline's eyesight, she would not miss any enemy. Moreover, she had arranged many evil creatures with perception abilities, so it was unlikely that someone could break in silently. And because of Isidor's fierce reputation and the evil creature guarding the place, there were naturally no people coming to watch the fun. Besides Isidor, only Emmeline was present, standing nervously by the side waiting. So where did this feeling of uneasiness come from? Isidore lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and suddenly noticed that the white ash on the ground did not seem to be blown away by the evening breeze, but accumulated on the ground, and even gradually blended into the surrounding environment, dyeing nearby things gray and white. The next second, a white beast leaped out and headed straight for the statue of Esina. Seeing this scene, Isidor suddenly realized: No wonder he had destroyed all the white beasts at the beginning, but the workers who went in to dig the crystal stones were still attacked. It seems that the white ashes themselves have the function of breeding white beasts, or even these ashes are the white beasts themselves! In a flash, Isidor had split the white beast in half with one sword, but another white beast soon jumped out from behind the statue. Fortunately, Emmeline was standing there. She had no other weapons, so she grabbed the tail of the white beast with one hand and smashed it to pieces. However, more white beasts soon sprang out from the ground, seemingly endless. Under normal circumstances, Isidor could have wiped them out with a whirlwind slash, but now he had to consider Esina's safety, so he couldn't use any large-scale killing moves, and he didn't even dare to swing his sword. He had to use Esina's sword, which was not very handy, to kill the white beasts.
Although he was concerned about Emilyne's injury, he couldn't take care of her back after all, so he had to let her fight with her injury. At this time, the evil creatures guarding nearby quickly rushed over, but the evil creatures were too aggressive, and Isidor did not dare to let them get too close. He could only let them stay on the periphery to contain the attack of the white beast. The battle lasted for more than an hour before Isidor finally killed all the white beasts that emerged from the ashes. After the white beasts were killed, the ashes seemed to have lost their ability to infect the outside world and gradually dissipated with the evening breeze. "Hu..." After killing the white beast, Isidor finally put down his sword tiredly. His nerves had been tense during this period. Even with the blessing of the "moderation" skill, the continuous use of fantasy construction and evil advent also consumed him a lot. Isidor turned his head and looked at Emilyne behind him. Although she had to deal with relatively fewer monsters, she was fighting with only one arm after all, and she had no weapons, and she had several wounds on her body. "Are you okay?" Isidor asked worriedly. "I'm out of the way. Let's go see how my sister is doing," said Emmeline. Upon hearing this, Isidor hurriedly turned his gaze towards the statue, only to see that the statue's shattered shell had finally shattered completely, and Esna, having lost her support, fell down all of a sudden. Isidor quickly hugged Esna and let her fall into his arms. Esna's clothes had long been torn and could no longer cover her beautiful body. Fortunately, there was no one around, and Emmeline quickly took clothes to cover her. "Isidor, is that you? You come... to save me?" Esina slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Isidor's face clearly, she couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile. "Sister! You're awake! I was so worried about you, so worried, so worried, so worried!!" Emmeline finally couldn't control her emotions and buried her head in Esna's chest and burst into tears. "Be good, sister, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired. What's wrong with your arm?" asked Esna. "I got hurt during the battle." Emmeline replied, covering her arm. "Silly child, you don't know how to protect yourself. I will treat you when I recover. What about the dark elves and vampires?" Esina asked again. "They got separated during the teleportation. Emmeline and I are together. We haven't found them yet. It's a long story. Let me take you into the house to rest for a while." Isidor noticed that Esna was tired, so he carried her into the makeshift hut, put some soft blankets on the bed and let her lie down to rest. "Would you like to get some sleep?" Isidor asked. "No need, I just exhausted my magic power and I'm not sleepy for the time being. By the way, are all my belongings still there?" Esna asked. "All the luggage was lost. The only things we found were the bookcase, medicine bag and sword." Isidor said as he handed the things to Esna one by one.
"Let those things be lost. I can make them again sooner or later with some time. The important thing is, where is the Cup of Babylon?" asked Esna. "Oh no! I forgot about this! The person who bought these things only mentioned these few things, but forgot to ask about such an important thing as the Cup of Babylon!" Isidor said, slapping his thigh. "It's okay, you don't have to blame yourself. It's my fault that I didn't protect the Cup of Babylon. Let's not talk about this for now. What happened after the transmission was interrupted by Taimur? How did you find me?" Esina asked. Isidor and Emily told Esna what happened after they got separated. Esna nodded repeatedly, "I took note, but there is too much information in it, and I can't sort it out for the time being. In short, killing a demon king is always a good thing, but the demon king's obsession with Isidor is indeed a bit abnormal. Logically speaking, they can have as many goblins as they want who can absorb soul power. Even if Isidor is a little special, he shouldn't receive so much attention. Could this matter be related to the prophet of that year?" As Aisina spoke, she frowned and seemed to be in pain. "Don't think about it anymore, Esina. Let's analyze the intelligence after you have rested well." Isidor reminded hurriedly. "Yes, I should change this bad habit of mine. Let's talk about some less stressful topics - you must be very interested in my experiences during this period, right?" Esna said with a smile. Chapter 136: The Price of Magic "Of course I'm interested. Emmeline calls your name every day. Since you still have the energy, tell us about it." Isidor said with a smile. "Okay, let me tell you briefly: Taimur's main purpose was to take the Cup of Babylon from me, so after the teleportation magic took effect, he chased me all the way. Relying on the defense ability of a perfect virgin, his attacks could not hurt me, but in this case, the Cup of Babylon would inevitably be taken away by him. So I used the forbidden technique in ancient books - directly using my own memory to cast telepathic magic. You may have seen that I used memory crystals as consumables to cast telepathic magic, and the same principle applies to directly using memory, but the price is also extremely heavy." Esna said, reaching out and touching Emmeline's face. "He is the strongest opponent I have ever faced in my life. Even though I have burned my memories without reservation, I still cannot defeat him. We fought all the way for several days and nights. When we got here, Taimur became furious and didn't care about the Cup of Babylon. He simply gave up all his defenses and attacked desperately, trying to kill me. I had to concentrate all my strength on the defense of the perfect virgin, but I didn't expect that I strengthened it too much and sealed myself. I don't know much about what happened after that." said Esna. "The place where we found you formed a large gray area. From the ashes, a white monster would jump out and hurt people. It is said that many feathers fell nearby, and many crystal stones were buried on the ground. Dice Lady asked me to collect those crystal stones, and then I lifted your seal." Isidor said. "You saved my life again. But now the perfect virgin's protective spell can no longer be used. If another demon king jumps out, I will be powerless." Esina laughed miserably. "If another demon king appears, I will be responsible for dealing with him. Anyway, I have already killed one, and one more won't be too many." Isidor said, holding her hand. "It seems that I will really need your protection in the future." Aisina said with a smile. That night, the three of them squeezed into a narrow room and slept for the night. Early the next morning, Isidor summoned the new leader of the Knights Templar and asked for a female knight's uniform for Esna to change into. "I haven't worn knight's clothes for a long time. Although they are not as beautiful as the uniforms of the Noldor knights, they still fit me well." Esna put on the uniform and turned to ask Isidor. Isidor looked at Esuna in uniform and felt that she looked heroic and capable, and her whole temperament seemed to have changed. "Oh? If you say so, I'm actually looking forward to what you'll look like in the uniform of the Noldor Knights." Isidor said, helping her adjust the hem of her skirt and then handing her the sword. "Okay, there are so many things to do. Where should I start?" Esina asked as she took the sword. "Sister, since you don't know whether Taimur is really dead, let's go outside the city to take a look. After all, at this moment, the Demon Lord poses the greatest threat to us." Emily suggested. "You actually took the initiative to offer your opinions. You've really grown. But the most important thing right now is to treat your arm," said Esna. "You still have a lot of important things to do. My injury is not urgent. It's been so long anyway, so it doesn't matter if I delay it a little longer." Emmeline said. "Be obedient, Emilyne. You are an important force in the team. Helping you recover your arm is of course an important matter. Don't underestimate yourself." Isidor advised. Sure enough, after hearing what Isidor said, Emilyne fell silent and let Esna untie the bandage and check the injury on her arm. "The situation is very bad. The tendons are broken in many places, the muscles are dissolved due to excessive force, and many places are necrotic." Esna picked up Emily's arm and examined it carefully, her expression becoming more and more solemn. "Is there any way to treat it?" Isidor asked worriedly. "It's not that there is no solution, but the necessary materials and equipment are not here." Aisina said with a frown.
"Describe to me what materials you need and I might be able to build it," said Isidor. "Well, there's no harm in giving it a try." Esna said, and told them what was needed one by one. Isidor tried to build it according to her description, and the narrow room was soon filled with a mess of things. "It is indeed a bit difficult. The equipment I need is very sophisticated. Your skills are sufficient for making raw materials, but it is not easy to directly make finished products. The materials are all organic, and what you make is just an imitation product without actual performance." Aisina shook her head. "So that's why. No wonder it hurt so much when I took the atavism potion..." Isidor complained. "Sister, I can fight with one hand. Please teach me swordsmanship! If brother Isidor can learn it, I can definitely learn it too! Emmeline doesn't want to make things difficult for her!" Emmeline interrupted. "Don't worry, I won't let your arm become disabled. It will take at most a year, at least half a year, for me to find all the materials to heal your arm. Before that, let's find some substitutes so that it can be used temporarily." As Esina said, she drew out her sword, took the scabbard in her hand and fiddled with it, pulling out a dozen thin white silk threads from it. "What is this?" Isidor asked curiously. "This thing is a very rare material, but you have actually seen it." Esna said, taking the fine needle made by Isidor, polishing it slightly, and then began to thread the needle. "Have I seen this thing?" "Haha, I won't keep you in suspense. This is actually Noelle's hair. Noelle was born with a purifying constitution. No part of her body will not cause infection or rejection reaction, so her hair can be said to be the most suitable fiber for implantation in the body. If Noelle hadn't strongly opposed it, I would have wanted to pluck her hair out to make a close-fitting thin armor." Esna laughed. "Oh, come to think of it, I haven't seen Noelle-chan for a long time. I miss her a little." Isidor said, and Noelle's cold and beautiful face appeared in his mind. "You'd better not hope to see her again." Esna said, stabbing the needle into Emmeline's arm, using magic to guide the needle through the gap in the muscle, allowing Noelle's hair to fill the damaged tendon. After burying twelve strands of hair, Esna finally stopped. Then she used a tiny needle to inject the purple potion that revitalized the body, supplemented by the magic potion she took internally. "This is done. Although this method cannot really cure the disease, it can control the movement of the arm with magic. The hair I buried is the circuit for running magic. Magic nodes are set at each joint. You can try to inject magic into it." Aisina said. Emmeline nodded and tried to inject magic power into her arm. The arm that had already been necrotic actually began to move. "How does it feel?" Isidor asked. "Feeling... no feeling. It's like I'm controlling a mechanism, and I don't have the real feeling of an arm. It may be difficult to use it to pull the bowstring, but it should be okay to use it to hold a bow." Emmeline tried to move her fingers and then answered. "Well, let's go outside the city first, so that little Emmeline can recover a little," Isidor said with a smile. Chapter 137: Silver Eyes Reappear After Esina recovered, the Knights only knew that a battle seemed to have taken place in the square, and the mountains of crystal stones were all reduced to ashes. However, because of the ferocious evil creatures guarding nearby, they did not know what had happened. When Esna and Isidor, dressed in the attire of the Knights of the White Hart, appeared together, the members of the Knights of the White Hart were very surprised. They talked a lot about Esna's appearance. Some people guessed from her figure and temperament that Esna might be the "goddess" in the statue, while others guessed that she was the helper invited by Isidor to fight the "goddess". The sound of fighting in the square yesterday was the best evidence. Isidor didn't care about these speculations. He took the sisters Esna and left Bailu City directly and came to the vast white area outside the city. Because all the crystal stones had been dug out and white beasts were roaming inside, this area had actually been designated a restricted area by the White Deer Knights - but facing Isidor and his party, the attendants in charge of guarding naturally did not dare to stop them. "Are these white powders the residues left by the 'white beast' you mentioned?" Esna said, reaching out and grabbing a little white powder with her index and middle fingers, and looking at it carefully in front of her eyes. "How should I put it? Rather than saying it's a residue, it's better to say it's a mother body. When you return to your original state, a white beast will appear out of thin air in the ashes. The killed white beast will turn into ashes, and a new white beast will be generated in the ashes. It will be killed until it completely loses its activity, and then it will turn into ashes." Isidor replied. "So, the white beast is not hiding under the ashes, but the ashes gave rise to the white beast? Interesting, I have never seen this form of life - no, can this thing really be called life?" Esina pinched the ashes in her hand and smiled with interest. "Is this thing related to the Demon Lord?" Isidor asked. "More than just being related, I think this is probably the Demon Lord's true form - let's go for a walk. If you encounter a white beast, please don't take action yet. I want to do some research." Esina said, drawing her sword and walking into the depths.
Isidor and Emmeline followed closely behind, and after the three of them had taken only a dozen steps, a white beast suddenly jumped out from the ground. Aisina lightly stabbed the sword into its chest, piercing through its heart. However, the white beast did not fall down, but tried to scratch Aisina with its claws. Esna dodged sideways and stabbed its head with another sword. Although the sword stabbed deep, the white beast still did not fall down, so Esina shook the sword and crushed the white beast's head from the inside, which completely turned it into ashes. "Although it has the shape of a beast, its head and heart are not its weaknesses," Isidor said, looking at the ashes on the ground. "Oh? You actually know my intention. That's really progress. Then you should be able to guess my next move, right?" Esina asked with a smile. "You just mentioned that these ashes might be the Demon Lord's true body. Does this mean that the Demon Lord still has a possibility of resurrection?" Isidor guessed. "Yes, the next step is to verify this." Esina said and closed her eyes. She opened them again after a few seconds, and her eyes had turned into a cold silver. "Oh? Your silver eyes can be opened so quickly?" Isidor said in surprise. "Without having to bear the consumption of a perfect virgin, I can focus better. And after the battle with the Demon Lord, I have grown a lot." Esna said with a smile. "But what's the point of using the silver eyes? These white beasts don't have any so-called weaknesses. They have to be completely smashed to pieces before they can be killed." Emmeline asked curiously. "The function of the silver eyes is to see through the nature of the white beast - don't move yet." Esina said, holding the sword in one hand, slowly pacing forward sideways, as cautiously as if there were traps on the ground. Suddenly, her eyes fell on a certain spot on the ground. She pointed her sword in that direction and shouted, "Emilyn, shoot that spot." When Emmeline heard her sister's instructions, she took out the longbow without hesitation, bent the bow with her right hand, put the arrow in her left hand, and shot three arrows at the ground where Esna pointed. "Aoao!" A huge white beast jumped up from the ground, carrying three feather arrows shot by Emmeline. "Mr. Isidor, I am in no condition to use magic right now. Could you please trouble me for a moment?" Esina turned her head and looked at Isidor pitifully. "Okay, just don't provoke the Demon Lord." Isidor said, and threw out an ice cone, smashing the white beast as tall as a hill into pieces. "Can you beat a bigger one?" asked Esina. "of course." Esna nodded, and immediately a taller white beast jumped out from the ground. Isidor was startled, but reacted quickly and destroyed it with a cone of ice. "You seemed to know it would appear?" Isidor asked in surprise. "It seems that this place is the limit of its size. Let's go deeper. I'll answer your questions when we get there." Esina said, leading the two of them deeper into the center. "This should be about the same - Isidor, what does the strongest white beast you have ever seen look like?" asked Esina. "The strongest white beast I have encountered is an oversized Cyclops. Their eyes emit a white light that is very powerful and has a wide range. If you want to fight that thing, I can't guarantee your safety." said Isidor. "In other words, if you don't care about us, you can win?" asked Esina. "They are just big and can't hurt me at all. It's no problem even if I take on several of them together. Compared to the super disgusting Demon Lord that I defeated in the north, these guys are at most elite monsters." Isidor said confidently. "It seems that you have really become much stronger. Don't worry, I will protect Emilyne, you just need to fight." Esna said. “Wait, could it be that you summoned these white beasts?” As soon as Isidor finished speaking, the earth shook violently and seven Cyclops stood up from the ashes one after another.
... "Huhu, now you should explain what's going on, right?" After a fierce battle in which he defeated the seven giants one by one, Isidor returned to Esna breathlessly and asked. "Thank you for your hard work. The reason I didn't tell you just now was not to keep you in suspense, but I can't guarantee that this guess is correct. However, since the largest giant also conforms to this rule, we should be able to draw a preliminary conclusion: this piece of ash is not a loose structure, but a living whole. It can sense the murderous intent from the outside, and release the white beast to eliminate the enemies that pose a threat to itself according to the intensity of the murderous intent." Esna explained. "So, you are not able to summon the white beast, nor can you predict its appearance, but you use murderous intent to stimulate the appearance of the white beast?" Isidor said in surprise.
