Chapter 1307: Chapter 568: Ambush and Counter-Ambush! (Part 2)
“You repelled the sea monster?” the knight asked with emphasis.
“Indeed,” Aloys replied.
The knights exchanged glances and nodded slightly.
One knight turned and shouted loudly:
“We need a priest! Soone is critically injured, hurry!”
Several priests jumped onto the deck, crouched down to examine Shen Ye’s condition, and imdiately began to heal him.
Their thod of healing was quite strange.
They simply chanted so spells, then invoked a holy light to fall upon Shen Ye, and that was it.
Shen Ye’s injuries healed rapidly at a visible rate.
His life was saved.
Aloys was astonished, his mouth agape.
—Could this be called dical skill?
How could it be so imdiately effective?
In his own mory, there were indeed so images related to healing, but he had only seen these images, knowing the profound knowledge within.
With his current all attributes (in Shen Ye’s words), he did not yet have enough spiritual power to practice similar techniques.
But no matter what—
Brother Shen survived!
“That’s great, Shen Ye, you got your life back,” Aloys said excitedly.
“Yes, I got my life back,” Shen Ye himself was relieved.
He still appeared very weak.
—After all, having lost so much blood, at this mont, one could only say he narrowly escaped death, and further healing was needed.
At this mont, a knight jumped over from the opposite ship and addressed the two of them:
“I heard you are the heroes who repelled the sea monster?”
“We’re not really heroes. We just did our part to defend the empire’s mariti territory,” Shen Ye said.
“Very well, the king wishes to summon you,” the knight said.
The king?
Aloys was taken aback.
Through the guidance of Shen Ye, he had co to know that outside Earth, there existed a “Spirit Realm” dedicated to guarding the planet.
This “Spirit Realm” had four major races: humans, elves, beastn, and the undead.
Could it be that he was about to et the king of the human race?
“You go ahead, I can’t move right now.”
Shen Ye leaned against the wall, pale-faced, breathing weakly.
“Hmm, his injuries are not simple. Do not move him for now; continued treatnt is necessary,” said the leading priest.
Aloys said, “Please heal him imdiately.”
The priest imdiately shook his head and said, “We must obtain the king’s consent for further treatnt—the spellcasting materials we consu are very expensive.”
Blood started to flow from Shen Ye’s mouth again.
Aloys grew a bit anxious.
You can’t die here.
If you die, I’ll also end up dead here.
No choice then.
There’s only one way—
“I’ll go see the king, please lead the way,” Aloys said.
“Alright,” the knight replied.
A few minutes later.
On the battleship.
Aloys stood in front of the young and valiant king.
“What is your na?”
“Aloys.”
“Aloys? Nice na— I am the lord of all humans, King Norton of the Holy Violet Empire.”
“Your Majesty the King, please save my friend. He was grievously injured by the sea monster and urgently needs treatnt,” Aloys directly requested.
“You repelled the sea monster?” King Norton asked with interest.
“Yes, Your Majesty, my companion is severely injured and still needs your assistance,” Aloys said.
Norton asked his advisor beside him, “How is that person injured?”
“Very seriously. It would likely require a large amount of materials to save him, which is very uneconomical,” the advisor said.
Norton hesitated for a mont and decided: “But they were able to repel the sea monster. They should be considered brave citizens. I think it is necessary to save them.”
“Your Majesty, there are many swindlers these days. We can’t just take soone’s word for it,” the advisor reminded.
That was true as well.
Norton pondered briefly before making a decision:
“Here’s what we’ll do, Aloys.”
“As long as you can prove you have the power to repel the sea monster, I’ll have the priests save your companion.”
“But if you are deceiving the king—”
“You don’t need to spell out your fate.”
Aloys was naturally not afraid to prove his strength.
“Your Majesty, I can’t wait to prove my strength, but what should I do?”
He asked.
Norton, in an utterly casual manner, took out a Nightmare Crystal and tossed it over.
“I have a set of sword techniques here. After you watch it, if you can co up with a counter-move to these techniques, I’ll consider you passed, and will order the imdiate rescue of your companion.”
Sword techniques?
To break the opponent’s sword techniques?
Aloys found it sowhat novel, yet also a bit tense.
The novelty was due to never encountering such an assessnt thod before; the tension naturally stemd from the fear of failure, of Shen Ye dying, and of himself being punished as a fraud by the king.
He grasped the Nightmare Crystal, following the thod Shen Ye had explained, and crushed it in one swift motion.
Crack—
The crystal shattered, and the sealed, ethereal mist within rose up, engulfing him.
Soon enough.
A set of sword techniques appeared in Aloys’s mind.
“Secret Record of World-Destroying Dual Slashes…”
Aloys quietly comprehended the profound mysteries of these sword techniques, and quickly beca deeply moved by them.
Irrelevant of anything else.
The power of these techniques exceeded his imaginations, reaching a truly terrifying extent.
To counter these sword techniques?
?
Aloys racked his brain, rapidly searching his mories for a counterasure.
Fortunately—
The things in his mory were even more terrifying.
“Your Majesty, please give a Nightmare Crystal. I’ll infuse it with the counterasure,”
Aloys said.
“No problem.”
Norton readily retrieved a Nightmare Crystal and handed it over.
Aloys accepted the crystal and imdiately began infusing various techniques—
He was determined to ensure the other party was convincingly impressed, so he directly inscribed seven thods to break the “Secret Record of World-Destroying Dual Slashes.”
