The Devil Priest and the Brave Beautiful Girl

To Ulysses's surprise, even though he told the fact that he had formed a team, the invitees seemed to be totally unconcerned. For a while, all kinds of attractive conditions were brought up.

"Astarot, quit your team! I'll help introduce you to the princesses of our country. It's pretty good. If it weren't for my interest in women, I might get married." A man in bright silver armor The knight threw out conditions that were enough to make ordinary people's heads hot. For most people, marrying a princess is already a lifetime hope.

"What's the use of a vase-like princess, Astaroth, let's come here. I know that there are many ancient magical era treasures in an ancient ruin, but unfortunately it is difficult to find a suitable companion to explore. After this conference, , How about let's go together?" After several magicians discussed it, they also took out their bargaining chips. Compared with the princess, these things are more attractive to the real strong.

"Huh, the ruins that have not been explored are also used as a bargaining chip, Astaroth, come to our orcs. You should know that the most important promise of our orcs clan, as long as you come, you will be the eternal guest of our tiger clan "The tiger warrior with black and white lines on his face patted his chest and made his promise. Judging from this tone, he should be an important figure in the tiger clan.

"Excuse me, Mr. Astaroth, I don't know if you are interested in golden orchids. We happen to have a few collections here..." After a few goblins bit their ears, they launched a representative to ask Ulysses. .

...

"Sorry, thank you for your invitation, but I will not quit my team." Ulysses wearing a black mask shook his head, and at the same time refused everyone's invitations.

"Weird, Astaroth, are you so confident in your team?" Luo Luo looked at Ulysses curiously, no matter what conditions other people offered. Among the teams invited just now, some of them are quite strong, and even he dare not look down upon them.

"It's not a question of confidence, because I am the leader of this team." Ulysses explained his reasons.

"That's it. It seems that your team is good. There are a few people, four or five." Luo Luo asked tentatively.

"Because there are a few people who don't plan to participate, probably fifteen people." Ulysses said with some regret.

Because Saya and the others seem to have no interest in this, the final list of the Apostle’s team is Ulysses, Arseria, Aya, Helen, Lulu (registered by Arseria), Mina, Iphia, Hercules, Mihalu, Tina, Sharon, Lasputin, and Farrie, Leilu, and the heroic king Yuke beside her. Except for the maid team, all members participated in the preliminaries of the brave tournament.

"Fifteen? Astaroth, are you sure you didn't mistake the number?" Luo Luo scratched his head and looked around.

Although the preliminaries of this brave tournament are an unprecedented team adventure, the rules also say that the more teams there are, the harder the test will be, and more people will only increase the difficulty of the test. A team of fifteen members, I am afraid there is only one in this brave tournament. Generally speaking, they are formed into teams of three to five people to act.

The combination of warriors or knights, priests, wizards, and thieves is an example of the best team for adventure. Among them, the priests who can heal and use all kinds of auxiliary magic arts are the rarest, and almost all teams will welcome them. Powerful fighters like Astaroth are also very popular. In general, a five-man squad will find suitable ones from these professions to form a team.

"Yeah." Ulysses nodded. He still has a good impression of this straightforward orc warrior.

"Then I wish you a smooth pass, I hope I can see you in the next stage." Luo Luo patted Ulysses on the shoulder, and went back to discuss the tactics with his team.

The contestants of this brave tournament are also very strong...Although they have refused the invitation of other teams, it is not that Ulysses can't feel the strength of others. He was quietly observing other team members from the side, and he could observe the opponent's strength more clearly.

The fighter wearing black gloves and ordinary cloth clothes seemed to be a fighter like Mihalu. He has a special rhythm when he walks, the distance of each step is exactly the same, and his body is slightly arched, like a black panther that can initiate a sprint at any time.

The one who was talking with several fairies was his new friend, Kira, the sword dancer of the fairies clan. The pair of slender double-edged swords were still by his side. He didn't win the battle in the ruins. A real victory.

If it weren't for the fact that he was too surprised to expose his body because he used the Dragon Slay Destructive Sword Style, that battle would probably evolve into a protracted battle.

Sitting on a wooden barrel in the corner eating bananas is the gorilla who once demonstrated the horror and frenzied ability of giantization. Although he looks more like a real monster than an orc, the power after the giantization is no joke. of. In the eyes of the orc warrior who respects the strong, he is an extremely powerful warrior, so it is easy to find the team.

Mr. Schumacher, the captain of the seventh squad of the Paladins who had been with him, was also here, talking to a young man with a crescent mark on his forehead, that was probably his seventh squad.

Wait, that's... Ulysses opened his eyes wide, because he saw familiar figures, and more than one.

Lornie with glasses and beautiful long blond hair; Kuna, Iphia's sister, whose whole body is surrounded by the breath of ice; Ayu, who is carrying an angel wing backpack and is turning around curiously. They are all people he knows, in terms of strength, they are almost the strongest team he has seen, and the only team with an eighth-level strong.

In the 1,000-kilometer endurance race, he confirmed Ayu's status as an eighth-level powerhouse. Whether it was the magical magic of the "Sonic Hedgehog" or the girl called Xuehua Crystal, they were all powers far surpassing the level of the seventh-level powerhouse. Although it looked confused, Ayu's strength was definitely not to be underestimated.

"It seems that their team will be a strong contender for the championship." Although I haven't really seen Ayu fighting, Ulysses still unconsciously listed that team as a championship reserve. After all, the existence of the eighth-level powerhouse is far superior to the seventh-level powerhouse.

Although there is no such an insurmountable difference in strength between the sixth and seventh levels, as a strong person who has cultivated his strength to the limit, the eighth-level strong is almost impossible to lose to the seventh-level strong, and the strength is absolute. The difference is too big. However, it is not without exception, because of the existence of the special weapon of Treasure, it is still possible for some seventh-level powerhouses to compete with the eighth-level powerhouse, but it is almost impossible to defeat it.

Even with the Devil Sword Abyss Conviction, he would not have any chance of winning when faced with an eighth-level powerhouse who truly fought with all his strength. Unless, as in that dream, you can freely use the greatest mystery of starry sky magic-the power of the world of galaxies.

By the way, that dream... Ulysses turned his gaze to Kuna, as if, in that dream, he did something very rude to her. Fortunately, it was just a dream. But why, when he saw her now, he felt an unexpected sense of familiarity, as if there was some invisible thread connecting them. What is this feeling...

Before Ulysses thought about what that feeling was, the person in charge of the registration office stood up and announced loudly:

"The registration for this brave tournament has all ended. Please go to the competition venue and prepare for the upcoming competition."

It's finally about to start! Seeing the confident expressions of the contestants and the light radiating from various treasures, Ulysses smiled and left here. Perhaps, he just wanted to see what these seven-level powerhouses he had dreamed of before would look like.

In fact, the seventh-level powerhouses are also humans, and they also have their own feelings. In just one hour here, there were people who invited him warmly, people who didn't care about him, people who greeted him friendly, and people who showed obvious hostility.

They, human beings just like him, are happy, angry, and look forward to victory. It is not because they have surpassed the limits of human beings to become other races. Even if they master the power that surpasses the limits of human beings, they are still human beings with their own feelings and beliefs.

Perhaps, in the eyes of ordinary people, these seven-level powerhouses are already mythical characters. However, if you really have contact, you will find that they also have their own preferences, and they also understand their shortcomings, and they have not lost themselves because of their strong power.

In fact, because all 7th-level powerhouses have made countless efforts to surpass their limits, they all respect the same 7th-level powerhouses. Even people who are hostile to him will not provoke verbally at will.

In the world of the seventh-level powerhouse, strength is everything. People with strength will naturally be respected.

After seeing the strong people who signed up for this brave tournament, Ulysses quickly returned to the companions of the Apostles. At this time, the game is actually about to start. Some teams have entered the starting point of the game ahead of schedule, in a small town some distance from the festival venue.

"Big Brother is here!"

"Dad, here." Helen and Farrie waved their little hands, welcoming Ulysses' return.

"How about, Ulysses, I have seen a lot of seventh-level powerhouses that I have never seen before." Lasputin greeted with a smile.

"Well, there are indeed many strong contestants. It seems that the competition for this brave tournament will be very fierce." Ulysses nodded, and even Yayu, who is an eighth-level strong, came to participate, no Fierce is impossible.

"Well, our preliminaries seem to have been decided. According to the rules this time, let's go to that small town to collect intelligence. If it's just a title, who knows what kind of test it is." Lasputin handed over. A piece of paper to Ulysses, the above is the test that the organizer of the brave tournament just told.

"War..." Ulysses read the above question.

"Yes, it's war, the highest-level challenge item. The other teams get dungeon exploration, maze monster crusade and other topics. We need to be tested by war, and probably only our group." Putin shrugged and said helplessly.

Even for the seventh-level powerhouse, war is not an easy thing. After thousands of years of exploration, the army has also found some ways to fight against the average seventh-level powerhouse. For example, the kind of magic that is used jointly by many magicians, and the forbidden black magic ritual that temporarily superimposes the life force of many people on one person, are all methods that can compete with the seventh-level strong.

Of course, these methods can only be used by those big countries, but this time the brave congress can only be held by the Supreme Cult and the Mage Guild. In the space created by this space demon, no one knows how perverted tests there will be.

"War..." Arcelia cast her gaze into the distance, this term was commonplace in the era when she was still a mortal. No matter it is she, or other kings, they often have to face all kinds of wars.

Before the Necrolord appeared, the entire continent had lost a lot of power in endless wars, and her hands were also stained with the blood of several seventh-level powerhouses.

Kingship, glory, wealth, these are all reasons to go to war. However, after the demon king appeared, people realized that the most precious things in the world were not these things, but the lives that would always be ignored by people. In the last desperate war, people did not fight for kingship, glory, and wealth. Just to survive, to fight for the continuation of one's own race.

Perhaps it was precisely because too many lives were lost in that war. This world will be as peaceful as it is now.

"In short, everyone is here. What we need to collect is war intelligence. Go to the specially set up town to inquire. The time is half an hour, regardless of whether it is collected or not. We will gather in the square in the town, okay? "Lasputin, who has traveled alone for a long time, has the most experience in gathering intelligence, and quickly formulated a suitable strategy.

...

"War..." For Ulysses who grew up in peaceful times. This is really a very distant term. The closest he ever experienced to the war was probably the scene where Lei Lu was fighting with the group of strong ogres in the Temple of Despair.

However, it was not so much a war as it was a one-sided massacre. In front of Leilu, those strong ogres were as fragile as pieces of paper. Until now, Ulysses could not forget the attitude of Relu when he held the halberd and chopped all the ogres into pieces.

Under the red halberd, the ogres didn't even have a whole corpse. Such cruel and **** battles were beyond ordinary people's acceptance. That is the best explanation for the red ghosts and red-eyed demons that the heroic king Yu Ke said.

The real battlefield is probably like that.

"Would you like to take a look? This is the humanoid collection of the demon kings of the past. How about it? It's spectacular enough." A strange voice awakened Ulysses from his memories. He found that he didn't know when he had come to this small The market side of the town is now.

"The Devil?" Ulysses looked at the businessman who stopped him, and there were indeed many weird human figures on his booth. There is a demon with wings, a dragon that looks up to the sky, and an angel with a huge moon behind...The last one is the appearance of a smiling young man in a priest's robe.

"How about, do you want to buy one back? Since ancient times, the statue of the Devil King has mysterious powers. It is said that all kinds of wishes can be realized. Whether it is lack of money, priest exams, love, amnesia, missing people, family members Safe, smooth delivery, or--becoming the new demon king.” The smiling stall owner looked at Ulysses and recommended his products to him.

"Sorry, I don't need this kind of thing." Ulysses shook his head and left here.

Strange, the last figure is a bit familiar, who is it, is it the priest he has seen? Ulysses was thinking about the few figures sold just now, while inquiring about information in the town. Because the people in this town are actually members of the Supreme Cult and the Wizards’ Guild, everyone will provide some information, but it is up to the contestants to judge whether they need the information or not. There seems to be some inexplicable intelligence mixed in.

"Weapons and armor are meaningless if they are not equipped on the body."

"If you are injured, you can use herbs to recover."

"The legendary cross is in the hands of the great priest of the church."

"There seems to be a monster in the north cave. Please be careful."

"If you find silverware, you can ask me to appraise it, and I will pay a relative reward."

"The rod of thunder is hidden on the body of a certain prisoner."

"If you use the fragments of the moon, you can retreat the ocean tide."

"The devil's wrist has sharp claws, which can be used to make the most terrifying weapons."

"Where the Holy Grail is, we need to ask Western sages."

"..." After questioning all the townspeople in the area he was in charge of, Ulysses returned to the square in confusion. He didn't hear any war-related intelligence, but heard a lot of weird intelligence, which should be the intelligence needed by other contestants' missions.

The preliminaries of this brave tournament refer to the adventure in reality. It is necessary to collect all the information here and determine the specific task before proceeding. The first hint is only the keywords on the paper.

"Lasputin, have you figured out what the task is?" Ulysses was the last to return to the square, and the others had already assembled.

"Probably I figured it out, but there is still the last piece of information, Ulysses. It should be the information in your area." Lasputin nodded. The large number of people still has an advantage in collecting information.

"which one?"

"Let me tell you, this is the collected intelligence fragments." Lasputin took out the note, which had written the intelligence gathered by Iphia, Helen, and Tina.

"The war is about to begin. In a distant country, the evil prince and the perfect king are about to go to war."

"This will be a cruel war, please be fully prepared."

"If you have the courage to protect this country, please go find the legendary holy thing."

"The sacred thing in the legend is the sacred cup containing the blood of God."

"Where the Holy Grail is, you need to ask Western sages." Ulysses blurted out.

"Very good, then the key is to go to that sage." Lasputin clapped his hands and cast his eyes to the west. There, there is a tall minaret, the name of the tower is-the tower of the sage.

...

"You guys, are you going to challenge the evil brave?" A gray-bearded wizard looked at Ulysses and Arcelia, when he saw that there were still a few children in the team. , Obviously surprised.

"Yes." Ulysses nodded. Behind him are the companions of the Apostles.

"I hope you understand the cruelty of this war. I ask one last time. Are you not going to quit?" The wizard is still looking at Helen and Iphia. Obviously, he doesn't seem to want them to participate in the preliminaries. .

"Fali will go with Big Brother."

"No matter where Dad goes, I will follow." Fali and Helen declared their beliefs at the same time, and they will never give up.

The old wizard shook his head, sighed, and raised his wand.

"Well, then, let's start, belonging to the legendary knight king-the Holy Grail War."
