Chapter 7: The Black Knight
"I feel like killing ghouls is a bit less supernatural than I get." Sidlifa said.
"First of all, the experience points gained through killing, that is, supernatural strength, will have a natural attrition in itself." "Second, if the other person's sequence is very different from yours, then there will be another loss of difference. ”
"An undead like a ghoul, if its extraordinary strength is 100%, then Peggy, as an undead transcendent, can probably absorb about 14% of it, and the others are only single digits at most."
"The easiest thing to brush up on extraordinary strength is still like the Frankish knight we fought last time. I've never taken any potions, and my level is level0, but I've accumulated a lot of pure transcendent power in my body. ”
"If you only consider natural attrition, this extraordinary power with no characteristics can achieve an absorption rate of 20%."
"According to you, it's not worth fighting supernatural creatures." Eleanor pondered for a moment and said, "No, fighting with transcendent beings should be for the purpose of harvesting spiritual materials. ”
"That's right." Aske agreed, "If you want to fight spiritual materials, you can go to the next dungeon, archaeology, explore ruins, and fight supernatural beings; If you want to improve your attributes, you have to become a mercenary, go to the battlefield, and fight with humans like you and me. ”
"What are the spiritual materials of these ghouls?" Peggy asked.
"Aberrant pituitary gland." "But we don't need it, the ghoul pituitary gland is the potion material for the undead sequence. We can sell it directly to the Night's Watch Knight. ”
"Then I'll talk to them later." Nora said.
The men of the Teal Sword mercenary group were talking and discussing here, while the Night Watch men stood far away from the mercenaries and the corpses of ghouls.
This is actually an attitude that the Night Watch Knights will not get involved in the harvesting of materials on the ghouls, and they belong to the Azure Sword.
"Don't worry, the boss seems to be coming." Asker looked at the hills in the distance and didn't speak.
The girls followed his gaze, and that direction was the same direction that the ghoul group had rushed in before.
"That's?" Eleanor suddenly noticed a faint dark figure on the high ground opposite, which seemed to be walking towards this direction.
Mi'er immediately picked up the sniper rifle and observed through the high-magnification eyepiece, warning herd:
"It's a knight, a ...... Eccentric knight. ”
The night watchmen on the opposite side couldn't help but cast their eyes over there when they saw the Azure Sword looking into the distance. At this glance, the existence of the black shadow was immediately discovered.
"It's the Black Knight!"
If you encounter a black knight in the field, the first thing to shoot is already a dogma in the organization of night watchmen with strict military training.
Four crimson fiery rays immediately shot towards the black knight a few hundred meters away.
Failed.
The black knight on the hill just rolled and dodged four laser attacks at the same time, and at the same time quickly charged towards this side.
"Tactical dispersion!" Quasimodo roared angrily and quickly shot in the direction of the Black Knight, "The mercenary leader over there! Let your melee warriors stay away and keep their guns back! ”
"Wait, why do we want to stay away in close combat!" Sidlifa yelled in displeasure.
"He just thinks you can't beat the Black Knight." Asker said.
Sidlifa fell silent.
She wanted to say, "How do you know if you haven't fought", but the Black Knight's fierce reputation, even in the Northland, is so loud that a three-year-old can stop crying.
Won't be afraid, won't be tired, wearing invulnerable heavy armor (and some are wearing power armor, it's even worse), has all the martial arts experience before his death, with an instinctive hatred for living beings, it's an undead monster that only knows how to kill, and almost every time it appears, it's the existence of slaughtering villages and destroying towns.
Fortunately, on our side, there are night watchmen and captains...... She glanced at the people around her, thinking to herself.
"When the boss approaches, everyone is ready to listen to my command." Asker said in the channel, "Keep the channel open! ”
"Understood!" All the girls answered in unison.
All that was left was the roars of the Night Watch Knights, the dull explosion of laser rifles scorching the air, and the sound of used batteries being thrown out of their chambers.
Everyone was holding their breath as they watched the dark shadows in the distance quickly approach.
It was only when the dark shadow approached that everyone could see that it was a power armored knight.
The power armor is covered with rust marks, and some of the exoskeletons show signs of breakage and twisting. The helmet was covered with moss, and at the top there was a small flower that shook in the wind.
However, no one dared to laugh at the Black Knight, for he ran at great speed, dodging most of the Night's Watch Knights' shots.
Even after more than a thousand years, the single-phase fusion battery of this power armor is still powering, and the deceased inside the armor still has the martial arts and military qualities of the previous life.
This is very terrifying, it is equivalent to facing a power armored knight with full combat power, and the opponent also has the characteristics of an undead, and there is no disadvantage of the so-called lethal parts.
Even if you are stabbed directly in the brain or heart, you will not die immediately.
The Knights of the Night's Watch also dealt with the Black Knights with a simple tactic: keep a distance, shoot with a gun, and shoot until they are killed.
The Black Knight had already rushed within 50 meters, and everyone could almost smell the faint stench of rotting mud, and the two shotgun knights immediately joined in the firing sequence.
Gunfire roared, thunder exploded, and a dense stream of shotguns shot at the Black Knight.
The latter simply raised his shield on his left arm and blocked all of these shotguns, to put it mildly. It continued to lunge forward, its right sword slashing forward.
"Get out of the way!" Asker suddenly shouted a warning voice.
The girls were well-trained, and when they heard Asker's sudden order, they immediately jumped back sharply without thinking. However, the Night Watch Knights did not react, and they were still steadily retreating and firing at the first time.
In the next second, the knight Langri's figure fell backwards and fell to the ground, the flamethrower in his hand had been split in two, and the black military fuel was flowing all over the ground.
How can there be two Black Knights? Everyone present couldn't help but widen their eyes, and they saw a black knight holding a sword and shield, still continuing to charge towards this side.
Another black knight was standing in front of Langri, burned by the splitting flamethrower, and then his form dissipated in the air.
"What the hell is that?" Knight Lorente roared, aiming his shotgun at the Black Knight and firing fiercely.
The latter held his shield to block the bombardment, and the long sword in his right hand slashed again.
With the experience of the previous car, this time without Ask's reminder, all the girls and the Night's Watch Knight quickly dodged.
Then I saw a figure rushing out of the black knight, and it was another black knight who was exactly the same in appearance, even the power armor and sword and shield were exactly the same.
The figure was a few points faster than the main body, and almost instantaneously rushed in front of Peggy, the long sword in his hand slashing straight down.
A gunshot rang out, and the black knight swung his sword and slashed his arm, which was broken and knocked away in an instant.
Peggy looked up in disbelief, only to realize that it was Asker in the distance, drawing his gun in the midst of the lightning and fire, stopping the deadly attack with an elephant hunting bullet and shattering the Black Knight's phantom.
"That's ......," she said in a trance, her voice trembling.
"Transcendent Swordsmanship - Phantom Sword." Aske sighed, "Let's get away first, this boss...... It's not something you can deal with head-on. ”
The girls hurriedly retreated, only to hear Asker continue in the channel:
"Sidlifa, give me the tomahawk."
"Medea, desire manipulation, target me."
"Sheila, bless me with the Light Weight Technique."
A series of orders were issued, and the girls acted like a chain. The tomahawk was tossed by Sidlifa, and Asker reached out to catch it, feeling the light spell quickly taking effect on his body—the air pressure was counteracting his own gravity.
In the distance, the Black Knight, who was affected by the manipulation of desire, had locked the target of his attack on Asker.
"I'll only demonstrate the next various techniques, not explain." With a sword in his right hand and an axe in his left, Asker calmly faced the Black Knight and said to the girls in the channel, "The main thing is to let you experience what a professional-level battle is like." ”
The Black Knight slashed out a sword again, and the phantom detached from its main body, and launched a charge and lunge in this direction with the sword.
Asker's body sank slightly, and suddenly disappeared in place.
The Illania Assassin Body, instantaneously.
"So fast!" Peggy and Mia shouted at the same time.
The two of them were agile warriors, so they naturally knew what the picture in front of them meant—Asker's burst speed just now was much faster than they had mentioned at full speed.
The Black Knight Phantom turned into a slash as it charged, its sword slashing towards the oncoming figure.
Asker, who was rushing forward, had already leaned over, flipped, and the sword light flashed, and he couldn't see what the move was, and the phantom had been split in two.
In less than two seconds, Asker rushed through a distance of 20 meters and instantly approached the front of the Black Knight's body.
"Be careful!" The Night Watch Knights roared as the Black Knights swung their shields and slammed them forward.
With Asker's current high-speed sprint, if he was hit head-on by this shield strike, it was not impossible to shatter his skull on the spot.
The shield slammed into it like a mountain, and Asker's figure suddenly stopped in front of the shield, and then jumped backwards as if ignoring inertia, and jumped back like lightning, and the tomahawk slashed at the shield.
Illania Assassin body, two reflexive folds.
With a "click", the inner edge arc of the tomahawk stuck the upper edge of the shield, and Asker had already spun around and flew up with the help of his strength, delivering a straight stab in the air that was extremely fast!
Caucasus Assassination, Shadow Eagle Raid!
The Black Knight quickly turned his head to dodge, but the sword deflected at the same time in an eerie way, still stabbing straight at the Black Knight's armored helmet.
The first form of the nine styles of the stars, folded sharply. Ignore any blocks and dodges and you're bound to hit.
The moment the long sword was about to pierce the armored helmet, the blade suddenly buzzed and trembled. This strange vibration is maintained at a tiny amplitude, almost imperceptible to the naked eye, except for the faint sound of the sword.
However, under the trembling thrust of the power armor helmet, the originally hard steel seemed to turn into papier-mâché, and the long sword easily broke through it, and plunged straight into the black knight's head, piercing out from the other side.
The second type of the nine styles of the stars, breaking the weight. Penetrates all physical defenses.
Although a long sword was stuck in his head, the undead black knight did not die, but simply waved his shield in a rage and rage.
Asker kicked on his shield in the air, accelerated to the ground, and rolled five or six paces away, and when he got up, he threw an axe.
Norman axe throwing.
The tomahawk whirled in the air, smashing the Black Knight's helmet - the place that had been pierced by the sword had already opened a fine crack, and it was instantly torn apart by the chisel of the tomahawk.
Fragments of steel burst and scattered, revealing the heads of the undead below. The hair color is scorched, the skin is shriveled, and the nose is completely rotten, leaving only two bare holes.
"Here come the guns!" Asker shouted.
Before the others could react, Eleanor took a step forward and threw the adamantite spear in her hand.
Asker sideways to avoid the Black Knight's slash and catch the spear falling from the sky. The psoas muscles are twisted, the arms are rotated, and a standard iron chop can no longer be standard.
The tip of the spear struck the Black Knight's shriveled head from the side, like a long stick hitting a watermelon, blasting the Black Knight's head.
