Chapter 120: Into the Darkness
But just when John was full of confidence to plan the attack, the appearance of an ice pick turned his sneer into consternation, which is one of the biggest advantages of ice professionals, surprise! The first two stabs of the icicle were blocked by the Dou Qi defense, but the most powerful third blow managed to break through the blockade of the Earth Dou Qi and pierce John's right shoulder! If it weren't for John's quick reaction, I'm afraid that this stab would have pierced the heart and killed him!
After all, John is still a light enemy, in the face of Chu Li, who was seriously injured, he didn't use his out-of-body fighting spirit to bombard from a distance, but tried to crush and crack the opponent's trap with physical violence, and resist the opponent's tricks, this idea was a little wrong.
Chu Li struck a blow, and his body retreated violently, and on the way back, he didn't forget to stomp on the ground with his foot, raising a large cloud of dust to block John's sight.
But no matter how John said it, he was also a ninth-order peak powerhouse, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, even if he hit the plot first, he was still much stronger than Chu Li, how could a little dust be effective? I saw him step out, and the speed of the little short leg was actually one or two times faster than Chu Li! John struck a headbutt right in the abdomen, knocking him back away.
"Ahem!" Chu Li's back slammed into the wall, and the huge impact force knocked out a huge hole in the rammed earth wall on that side.
"Chu Li, cheer up a little!" Elena tore her cuffs and broke free of the ice shield, she quickly rushed in front of Chu Li, leaned over and threw a healing technique on Chu Li.
Chu Li moved slightly, but he couldn't get up anymore, Elena was a spiritual magician after all, although any attribute of divine power could perform a primary healing technique, but in terms of effect, the spiritual divine technique was too bad.
"Don't look at it, he's dead!" Like a demon in the abyss, John stepped out of the dust and smoke step by step, his hand pulled out the ice pick on his shoulder, and threw it towards Chu Li. This ice pick is worthy of being transformed by Chu Li's ice magic, even if it has pierced John's right shoulder, it is still extremely sharp. Looking at this posture, if Chu Li doesn't dodge or dodge, he will inevitably be swept through by an ice pick!
"Don't!" Elena snorted and pounced on Chu Li's body, protecting him with her back.
Time seemed to freeze at that moment.
Chu Li opened his eyes and saw not John with a murderous face, but Elena's gentle and concerned eyes, which made him seek the warmth for many years! In an instant, the pain in his whole body and the shadow of death turned into incomparable consternation.
For 10,000 years, there has been an age-old question: If you are about to die in the world, who is the last person you want to see? In the past, whenever he thought of this, Chu Li would always show a sneer of disdain. It was only at this moment that a faint crack appeared in his heart, which had been frozen since childhood.
"Let's go!" At the last moment, Chu Li condensed the fighting spirit of his whole body and pushed Elena violently, pushing her away from the flight trajectory of the ice pick.
"This is probably fate..."Chu Li looked at the ice pick that was getting closer and closer, and a trace of serenity appeared on his indifferent face: "Dying at the hands of a thief, this can be regarded as the best fate for me..."
"Chu Li!" Elena's tears couldn't help but stay.
"Hmph, die!" John seemed to have heard the enchanting sound of an ice pick coming into his head.
Seeing that the ice pick was about to pierce Chu Li's head, suddenly a spherical black curtain appeared beside him, enveloping him inside. The castration of the icicle was extremely fast and powerful, but when it hit the black curtain, it did not make the slightest sound, but only in an instant, it was completely annihilated, leaving no trace.
John's expression changed! The men behind him looked even more panicked.
"Wilson, what do you mean by that?!" John's face was extremely ugly.
The dark curtain around Chu Li suddenly disappeared, and a man in a black cloak slowly walked in through the hole in the rammed earth wall. It's strange to say, after the black curtain disappeared, the black cloak obviously didn't release a trace of fighting magic or divine power, and he didn't even show his face. But his proximity caused John's men to retreat one after another.
The black cloak stood still in front of Chu Li, and said in a somewhat fluctuating voice: "This kid, I like it very much, he wants to join the Blood Demon Knights, and I agreed." β
Character introduction: Wilson, unknown race, unknown strength, unknown gender, one of the deputy leaders of the Blood Demon Knights, has an extremely mysterious origin, and never shows his face in front of outsiders. Even in the Blood Demon Knights, there is only one person who has seen his true face, the head of the group, "Thief Saint".
"Youβ" John's face turned blue and white, but he didn't dare to attack. Wilson's fame among the upper echelons of the Blood Demon Knights is too great, and although he is extremely mysterious, it is undeniable that his strength is unfathomable! It was once rumored that after a drunken experience, a thief who was one of the top ten commanders used his sword to pick open Wilson's black cloak because he was upset with his sword. What happened was horrific, and a dark curtain enveloped the entire camp tent, and almost in the blink of an eye, the darkness disappeared and the tent disappeared, leaving only a miserable corpse. But even so, the leader of the Holy Thieves did not punish Wilson, but strictly ordered the commanders not to challenge Wilson's majesty again.
"Huh? Do you have objections? Wilson's black cloak moved, he obviously didn't do anything, but for some reason, the terrifying momentum enveloped the audience, and cold sweat broke out on John's forehead.
Wilson's momentum was so terrifying that John instinctively felt boundless fear as if he had encountered a low-level demonic beast from a natural enemy. He took a few steps back before he stabilized his figure: "Wei... Lord Wilson, damn your subordinates, everything is at your command. After saying that, he couldn't bear the oppression of the terrifying momentum, turned around and flew out of the equipment shop, as if in another second, he would encounter something terrible. John's entourage, apparently aware of Wilson's prestige, scrambled out, all in utter fear.
"Chu Li, how are you?" Wilson scared John away, but his aura didn't seem to be aimed at Elena and Chu Li, Elena quickly ran to Chu Li's side and squatted down: "Your old injuries are not healed, and you have so many new injuries, I'll help you bandage them..."
"He's fine, I'll comeβ" Wilson's faint voice came, sending a shiver in Elena's heart.
Black permeated Chu Li's body from the shadows, enveloping him. But before Elena could exclaim, the blackness quickly subsided again, and Chu Li's body was presented in front of Elena intact as if it had never been injured!
Elena covered her mouth in surprise: "Chu Li, have you recovered?" β
"Thank you seniors for saving your life!" Chu Li nodded to Elena and said to Wilson.
"Let's go, thenβ" Wilson's voice faltered.
"Where are you going?"
"Aren't you going to join us..."
"Are you really, willing to take me in for the Blood Demon Knights?" Chu Li's cold face showed a hint of joy.
Wilson walked out of the hole in the rammed earth wall: "No, I am willing to take you in, plus whether I join the Blood Demon Knights with you." β
"Good! I'll go with you! Chu Li picked up the ice blade again.
"Chu Li, you... Are you sure you want to go with him? Elena bit her lip, "That's the Blood Demon Knights, why are you..."
Chu Li glanced back at her, his eyes flashed with inexplicable brilliance: "That was my dream since I was a child, in order to join the Blood Demon Knights, I have been pursuing it for many years. β
"But what is there to chase such a dream!" Elena stomped her foot: "Blood Demon Knights, what is it about such a dark organization that combines thousands of evils to attract you?!" With her temper, it is not easy to say such things. But seeing Chu Li go astray, Elena really couldn't do it.
Listening to Elena's words, Chu Li seemed to remember something, and his expression suddenly turned cold: "My path, no matter how wrong it is, it will not be the turn of others to blame!" Leaving this sentence behind, he ignored Elena and went straight to Wilson's whereabouts.
"No, Chu Li, don't go!" As if she was about to grasp the last straw, Elena hugged Chu Li tightly from behind, and tears flowed down her beautiful cheeks: "Okay to stay?" β
Chu Li's body trembled, but in the next second, as if he remembered something, inch by inch, he pulled away Elena's hands around his waist with difficulty.
"Chu... Chu Li, don't you know how sad it is in my heart to see you walk into the darkness inch by inch? Elena clutched her chest, crying as she shouted at Chu Li's back, "Do you really, don't care about my feelings at all?" β
"I'm sorry, I really don't care about you, I have my way, it's two gold coins, farewell!" Chu Li took a deep breath and strode out of the big hole in the rammed earth wall.
"Chu Li!" Elena sat down limply.
The two gold coin bones rolled up to Elena's side, and she subconsciously glanced at them, only to notice that there were a few faint lines on the gold coins.
Elena picked up the two gold coins and looked at them carefully, only to find that they had been carved with several words on them, one of which read "I care" and the other "Thank you".
"Chu Li, you liar~" Elena couldn't hold back any longer, fell to the ground and cried bitterly.
**********
"Done?" Wilson asked without looking back.
"Hmm." Chu Li replied in a deep voice.
"Obviously a little reluctant, why don't you tell her directly?" Rarely, Wilson asked with interest.
Chu Li thrust the ice blade into his waist, and the confusion in his eyes flashed: "I know that it is separation, why do you want to increase sadness?" β
"You have a very good heart, follow me in the future, the Blood Demon Knights welcome you." Wilson's voice was full of appreciation.
"Thank you for your life-saving grace and support!"
