With the whine in the goblin lair echoing in his ears, Rogge rushed out of the cave with Catherine and Lilith. He quickly climbed up the cliff, plunged the silver sword into the snow, tore the broken coat and threw it on the ground. I walked to the edge of the cliff and stared at the cliff in trance.
Catherine stood behind him, looking at him standing shirtless on the edge of the snowy cliff with his head bowed in thought, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.
He raised his left leg to step on a stone, pressed his left arm on his knee, and pinched his waist with his right hand like a tiger or wolf standing on the top of the mountain. The veins on his arm tattooed with black wolf claws popped out, and the fierce wolf with bright stripes on his back turned around. , seemed to be staring at Catherine fiercely, making her even more frightened.
After a long time, Rogge looked back at Catherine, who was silent. He seemed to notice the girl's fear and uneasiness. He turned around and walked back to her, pulled out the silver sword from the ground and said calmly: "Let's go, it's time. Going to meet Tully and Murphy!"
Catherine nodded silently and looked back at the little owl squatting in the snow eating snow. She whistled softly and the little owl looked up at her. Catherine nuzzled at her and turned around to follow Luo. Leave.
"This stupid girl still has some conscience, remember to ask me to come with you!" The little owl muttered to itself, flapped its wings, caught up and landed on Rogge's shoulder.
"Do you know? We are in big trouble!" Rogge said while walking with his sword in hand. The little owl rested on his head with its eyes closed and ignored him at all. Catherine tentatively asked softly: "What's wrong?"
"Just before the man in black died, he said a word into my ear. Now I can't tell whether what he said is true. If it is, things will be much more troublesome!"
Rogge rubbed the stubble on his chin with his hand and said, "He told me, Titan... do you understand the meaning of this word?"
"Titan?" Catherine shook her head blankly.
Rogge was not surprised by her reaction. He said meaningfully: "Yes, Titan, it is in the north of this island. We are not far from the Titan's territory. Those giants who live on top of the snow-capped mountains, You can flatten the fishing village by the sea with one foot.”
"It's terrible!" Catherine looked at Rogge in surprise. Rogge nodded with a frown and said, "Yes, if the mastermind behind the theft of the sacred artifact is really a Titan, we will be in real trouble, but I I still haven’t figured out what the purpose of the Titan’s sacred weapon is.”
"Perhaps, they want to obtain the power of the Vampire King. I remember you and Miss Tully talked about the use of that sacred instrument." Catherine reminded cautiously.
"No, that's impossible. The vampire king's power can only possess humans, vampires or other demons. Titans cannot use it." Rogge shook his head in denial without hesitation.
Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author's consent. Report any sightings.
"Then maybe, they want to resurrect the Ghost King and make him obey their orders..." Catherine guessed again.
"Baby, have you ever seen a vampire?" Rogge suddenly turned around and stared at her and asked. The girl was stunned for a moment, bit her lip and shook her head in confusion.
"So, you don't know what the vampires are. They are not birds that will be locked in a cage, nor are they puppets at the mercy of others!" Rogge turned his attention to the snowy field ahead and sighed softly.
"I'm not a little bird who will be locked in a cage!" Lilith suddenly jumped onto his shoulder and interrupted.
"You are a little glutton who only steals my dry food!" Rogge glanced at the little fur ball and continued to say to Catherine: "The Vampire King cannot be controlled by others. He comes and goes without a trace. Only sacred power can imprison him. and seal him, but they can't kill him, the only ones who can kill him are purebred werewolves."
"Werewolf..." Catherine couldn't help but tremble, and her mind couldn't help but recall the terrible dream on the snowy field.
"Yes, so the sacred artifacts are useless to the Titans. I can't figure out why they would steal the sacred artifacts."
"And if they really want to seize the sacred artifact, why do they rely on William the Bloody Hand and these traitors? With their power, they can directly launch a war to seize the sacred artifact. The mermaid tribe cannot compete with the Titans!"
"Perhaps they have made an alliance with William the Bloody Hand, and both parties get what they need..." Catherine continued to speculate persistently.
"Maybe, no matter what, we may have to go deep into the Titan's territory to find out, but this will probably be a point of no return. Those big guys have bad tempers!"
Rogge sighed helplessly, patted Catherine on the back and said, "Come on, hurry up, let's go to the border outpost first and see if we can get something from the mouths of the great magicians!"
The two quickly arrived at the place where the sleigh was smashed, and then turned north. After crossing a vast stretch of snowy plains, they finally saw the outpost fortress.
It stands on the edge of a glacier. To the south of the river is the territory of the Mage Tower, and to the north are the towering snow-capped mountains, the territory of the Titans.
The two came to the gate of the fortress. Rogge glanced at the tower. Except for the blue triangular flag of the Mage Tower fluttering in the wind and snow, there was no one. He shouted loudly to the city, but received no response.
"What's going on? Why is there no one?"
Rogge frowned in surprise, turned around and said to Lilith: "Little guy, fly up and have a look, and try to open the door!" Lilith squirmed her butt but didn't move, so Rogge picked her up with the handbag and threw it to The direction of the city wall.
"What a rough gentleman!"
The little fur ball grumbled and flew up the city wall unsteadily. Rogge had no intention of arguing with her. He waited outside with Catherine for a long time, but the little guy was still missing, which made him secretly suspicious.
Suddenly, the gate of the fortress suddenly opened, and the two people hurriedly stepped forward to greet Lilith who was standing at the door. They saw the girl covering her lips with a little finger and said: "Shh, something happened inside. A group of bad guys took the mermaid and the Injured 'scorpions' gathered in the square!"
"Could it be that the guy who secretly helped the man in black finally showed up?" Rogge was shocked and quickly asked Lilith to lead the way. The three of them walked along the winding road in the fortress and came to a place outside the square. High on the wall.
Rogge looked up at the square below and saw a group of people wearing silver robes and holding silver tomes in their arms, surrounding Tully and Murphy with eager eyes. The mages from the Mage Tower stood on the grand staircase of the castle behind and watched. Its change.
A man holding a silver scepter stood not far in front of the two of them with a majestic look, pointing the scepter at them and shouting questions.
"Wings of Holy Light Priests! Why are these guys here?" Rogge recognized this person's identity at a glance. He was the confidant of Goethe, the leader of the Wings of Light Priests - the execution priest Bach.
"Damn executioner!" Lilith next to Rogge also recognized them. The little girl's eyes quickly ignited with a flame of hatred, and her little teeth bit her lips tightly, almost bleeding. Come.
"Calm down, dear, let's see what happens!" Roger held the trembling girl in his arms, comforted her softly, and stared at the situation in the square with Catherine.
"Your Excellency Bach, we have no grudge against the Holy Assembly," Tali's indignant voice came from the square: "I have already told you my identity. I am the guardian of the temple of the mermaid tribe, not the so-called 'witch' in your mouth. '! You are so indiscriminate, are you following His Majesty's decree?"
Before Bach could answer, a gloomy voice came from behind him: "Hmph, what a pale sophistry! The mermaids are no different from elves. They are heretical monsters. Human sailors were seduced by fish monsters at sea and devoured countless people. You are not witches, you are simply eating banshees, no different from vampires!”
A majestic man wearing a golden holy robe appeared on the grand steps of the castle behind Bach following the voice. He pointed at Tully with the shining golden scepter in his hand and said sternly: "Saints, what are you waiting for? Get rid of this succubus and execute her complicit thieves together!”
