Chapter 2: Rangers
Simon noticed that although the roof of the chapel had been broken to make the hall a little brighter, there was not the slightest light coming in, either sunlight or moonlight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć The terrifying Black Knight stood silently in the dimly lit hall, its presence as if it had absorbed all the air in the hall, making Simon feel sullen.
What a monster this is.
Obviously experienced in a hundred battles, Simon's hand holding the sword was still a little sweaty, compared to all the mutant beasts encountered in the past, the oppressive force of the black knight was several times that of it.
Simon breathes gently and rhythmically, constantly adjusting his state. Simon knows his skills, and when facing this supernatural monster, his past experience is useless, and it is only wise to rely on Vanessa to be responsible for the frontal attack, and to be on his side.
Vanessa slowly took three steps forward in her stance, and then suddenly sprinted forward with a short body. Simon then quickly followed, his eyes fixed on the black knight, and he saw the black halo on the black knight's body suddenly rise and turn into a circle of light and spread outward.
"Be careful!"
However, the speed of the aperture was too fast, and neither Simon nor Vanessa dodged it, and the aperture passed through the two of them and spread outward for a distance before dissipating.
Simon felt the sword in his hand suddenly double in weight, and he almost fell off his hand and fell to the ground. And Vanessa almost tripped and fell to the ground, and the speed of the sprint was a lot slower. It wasn't that the sword had become heavier, Simon's face was ugly and he realized that it was his own strength that had become smaller.
At this time, the black knight suddenly rushed towards Simon, and Simon hurriedly retreated.
"Don't think!"
Vanessa's face flushed with anger at the Black Knight's ignorance, and she sped up running towards the Black Knight's back.
Vanessa's speed is much faster than the black knight, and when he saw Vanessa almost behind the black knight, Simon felt that something was wrong, and the black knight's speed seemed to have slowed down.
Just as Vanessa approached the Black Knight, the Black Knight's body stopped strangely, and he turned around sharply and swung his axe, bringing up the wind and waves that even blew Simon's hair not far away.
This monster even feints! Simon found that he still underestimated the cunning of the Black Knight, but he didn't expect that he was a monster but had intelligence no less than that of a normal human.
However, what reassured Simon was that Vanessa seemed to have predicted the Black Knight's attack, and rushed forward into the air in advance, and after dodging the attack of the giant axe, she stabbed the long sword into the mask hard, and then let go of the right hand holding the sword, and with the power of the sprint, when flying over the Black Knight's head, the short sword in her left hand swung and slashed at the Black Knight's neck, almost beheading the Black Knight on the spot. The mortally wounded Black Knight let out a beastly howl, the black halo on his body crumbling into shards and emitting a pungent black smoke.
Pretty! A warrior of the supernatural world! If it weren't for this level, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago.
Vanessa rolled around on the ground and then turned around and half-crouched on the ground, looking at Simon with a grim face.
"Get out of the way!"
But isn't the Black Knight already ......
Before Simon could figure it out, a black shadow suddenly appeared from the smoke, and Simon was horrified to find that the black knight was not affected by the injury at all, but instead stepped forward and slammed sideways into it. In an instant, Simon felt as if he had been hit by a speeding truck, and his whole body was knocked apart, and his whole body was slammed into the wall of the hall. And in the air, Simon watched in despair as the Black Knight raised his axe in his right hand and swung it down!
"Boom!"
At the moment when Simon was about to be hit, Vanessa rushed over and pushed Simon away, but she herself was swept back by the aftermath of the Black Knight's attack, and the heavy crossbow behind her was directly turned into pieces, and Vanessa lay on the ground and did not get up.
The Black Knight was so badly wounded in the head that he was not even killed when he was nearly decapitated, and Vanessa was seriously injured by the wind brought up by the axe alone!
The current situation is very unfavorable for Simon and them, Simon is seriously injured, and Vanessa seems to be unconscious, and although the black knight has been cut off most of his neck, his combat effectiveness has not diminished at all.
Simon struggled to his feet with his sword.
Is that the end of it? I'm going to die here? Died in such an inexplicable place where you don't even know your name?!
No! I've never given up, not even in a situation that is a hundred times more dangerous! As long as there is a glimmer of hope, a possibility, I will never let go!
"Do you want my life! Come on! I'm right here! My life is not easy to take, let you see the stubbornness of the wastelanders! ā
Simon shouted loudly, shouting out all the confusion after coming to this world, Simon finally realized at this time that no matter what the world is, there is no shortage of dangers, only self-improvement can have a glimmer of life, he is a wasteland ranger, and the spirit of never say die is engraved in his bones.
"Ranger Simon is here! Die, monster! ā
Simon felt that the blood in his body seemed to be burning, his whole body was hot, he didn't feel the pain in his body, his limbs were full of strength, his spirit was extremely excited, he felt like a dynamite keg, he could be ignited at any time, and the explosive energy was about to come out!
Simon unconsciously opened his left hand towards the Black Knight, and he was surprised to find a fireball glowing with blazing light appeared between his palms as wisps of flame converged from the void into his hand.
"Kill him!"
Simon let out a loud shout, and the fireball flew towards the Black Knight, who leapt to try to dodge, but was hit by the tracking fireball.
"Boom!"
A violent explosion sounded, Simon blocked the hot air with his hand, and then looked in the direction of the explosion, and found that the black knight was severely burned, and his head and body were almost only connected by a skin, but the black knight was still not dead.
Under Simon's shocked gaze, the Black Knight reached out and plucked his head off, tossed it aside, and then lunged at Simon.
It turns out that the head is not a weak point! All of Vanessa's previous attacks turned out to be useless!
Simon gritted his teeth and fought with the headless black knight with his inexplicable strength. Although Simon's current strength is comparable to that of the Black Knight, the Black Knight's near-immortal ability gives the Black Knight the upper hand in battle. Suddenly, the black knight raised his hand and pointed at Simon's chest, and a black-green beam of light pierced Simon's heart and hit the thin man not far away, after which the thin man was burned alive by a black fire that emitted negative energy. Simon then touched the hollow in his chest in fear, if it was his original body, he would have been killed on the spot.
If you can't go on like this, you will be consumed alive!
Simon carefully observed the black knight with his eyes, trying to find out the weak point, but several tentative attacks did not have a good effect, the black knight had no weakness at all, it was likely to be a real immortal! However, Simon still did not give up, and after fighting fiercely with the Black Knight, with the help of strength, Simon jumped backwards and distanced himself from the Black Knight. The black knight seemed to be waiting for something, and did not chase after him, Simon found that the black knight's body seemed to begin to condense the previous black halo again, if he hit another aura that weakened his strength, Simon was worried that he would not even be able to pick up the weapon.
The sweat on his forehead dripped into his eyes, and it hurt hotly, but Simon still kept his eyes open and tried to find the Black Knight's weakness. Simon took a few deep breaths, even he was a little desperate, and he couldn't help but look at Vanessa, maybe this was the last look before he died. At this time, Simon found that Vanessa was next to the head of the Black Knight, and strangely enough, the long sword that was originally inserted on it was missing.
No, what's wrong, Vanessa recognized the Black Knight as soon as she looked at her face, how could she do useless work, there must be a reason why she attacked the head, it is very likely that the head of the Black Knight is the weakness! I understand that decapitation is naturally a fatal wound for humans, but for moving corpses, destroying the head is the real heavy blow!
Simon, who figured it out, ran towards Vanessa with all his might, and the black knight behind him let out a terrifying roar and threw the longaxe directly. Simon didn't care about the axe flying past him, and without looking back, he ran to the black knight's head, kicked his head into the air, a white light flashed, and the long sword stabbed nearly halfway through the neck connection, and then smashed it to the ground.
"Whoa
A vicious scream came from the shattered Black Knight's head, and the Black Knight behind Simon finally fell to the ground and didn't move. The Black Knight's strength is so strong, not only is his martial arts exquisite, but he can also use debilitating spells, and what impresses Simon even more is the Black Knight's insidiousness and cunning, and it was pure luck to be able to defeat the Black Knight.
"Huhuhu"
Simon gasped violently, the strange heat in his body had disappeared, and his whole body was in severe pain, but Simon still did not lie down, he used his sword as a crutch, and walked to the church door step by step. Looking at the dark door in front of him, Simon pushed hard.
A fresh breeze blew through the door, lifting Simon's spirits.
Let me see for myself what the world looks like!
Simon's vision was filled with the remains of buildings and skeletons and zombies roaming the streets, oozing wails echoing everywhere, the sky was completely obscured by lead-gray clouds, and in the distance there seemed to be monsters as huge as mountains heading towards the city.
The terrifying Black Knight only showed Simon the insignificant side of the world, and even more terrifying monsters awaited him not far away.
"Hahahaha
An irrepressible smile leaked out of Simon's mouth.
"yes, that's how it has to be! This can be regarded as the end, this can be regarded as despair, and this can be regarded as the end! ā
"Only such an apocalypse is the stage for me, the Wasteland Ranger! Whether it's a god or a demon, open your eyes and see! I will live well and live with more people until the end of this last world! ā
