Chapter 500: The Captured Old Knight
On the other side, Levi was also holding a long sword and fighting side by side with Hua Meisi.
Compared to Levi, who used a long sword, Hua Meisi, who only had a spear as a weapon, would sometimes be accidentally hit when facing these extremely flexible witch spirits, although Hua Meisi's strength was very strong, even if it was a few hits, it would not be a big problem, but since Levi was by her side, why let her be attacked like this? Moreover, the two of them had been fighting side by side for a long time, and each was familiar with each other's various movements and attack methods, which just formed a kind of complementarity, and began to sweep all the way, slaying one crazy witch assassin after another.
A few minutes later, when Otilia was quite nimble, using her strength against the wall, and running up and running, and still carrying a pair of blue daggers in her hands, Levi knew that the other party had not only killed the witch leader, but also successfully leveled up, otherwise she was not as agile as she is now, but their results were good, and now there were few enemies in his sight.
"My lord, they are not the real guards here, they just took advantage of the chaos to break into this place and try to find a high-quality sacrifice to sacrifice to Kane, the god of the bloody hand!"
Otilia reported this information to Levi as soon as possible, and as for the pair of daggers, as well as her newly acquired skills, they were all secondary, and she still knew what really mattered.
Livingston wondered, "What about the original guards here?" ”
Otilia suddenly showed a look of disgust, "They have already sacrificed it. ”
Leviston was a little speechless, she finally knew why Otilia showed that state for the first time after the other party appeared, because she really knew the characteristics of the other party, obviously the outside was still being attacked by the High Elves, not only did they not go out to fight the enemy, but they first killed a large group of their own guards, these guys are really crazy!
"My lord, we need to move forward as soon as possible, I learned from the leader of the witch spirits who died just now, they released some medusas and tried to sacrifice them, but in the end they failed, we must go down as soon as possible, otherwise we may not have anything to gain when all the medusas are free!"
She hadn't forgotten that the reason why they chose this place as their target was to recruit some Medusa, but if the other party was all free, it would be much more difficult for them to recruit, although they had now become monsters, they were once dark elves, and they did not lack the cunning and cruelty of dark elves!
Livingston nodded very solemnly, "You're right, we'll leave immediately, and you can keep the pair of short knives for yourself." "Although the specific attributes are not clear, Levi has made a decision, and it is what the other party deserves.
With Levi's order, everyone immediately worked harder and harder to eliminate the remaining witch assassins, thanks to the madness of the other party, almost all the witch assassins did not choose to flee, but all fought to the last moment, and then they were killed, which relieved them of a worry, if the other party is hiding in the shadows, ready to launch a surprise attack on them, although there will not be many casualties, but it must be a trouble, now it is much better.
After dealing with the Witch Assassins, Levi and the others continued to move downward.
At first, there were no enemies on the road, but the smell of blood and all kinds of rancid smells became stronger and stronger, and then soon they all heard the sound of shouts and weapons clashing from below, and everyone was in good spirits, because there must be a battle ahead!
After turning a narrow passage, it is much wider as far as the eye can see.
It was a brightly lit hall, the floor was littered with broken corpses, blood almost reaching the feet, and on both sides were countless large and small rooms, most of which were empty, but there were also some terrifying half-serpentine creatures who were several meters long, but they were all lying on the filthy ground as if they were asleep, and they did not react at all to Levi's arrival.
In the center of the hall, there is a pond with a diameter of more than five meters, and the depth is unknown, at this moment the pond has been filled with viscous red liquid, and the pungent smell of blood is coming, which is disgusting, and there is no need to look closely, Levi knows that it is all blood, this is exactly the blood pool that Otilia said!
And the statues and sigils of Kane, the god of bloody hands, next to the blood-colored pond, directly explain their origins, they must have been made by those witch assassins and used to perform sacrificial rituals!
It's just that there are no living witch assassins here now, there are at least thirty or forty corpses of witch assassins on the ground, and there are a few guys in black robes who look like mages or sacrifices, but they have also turned into cold corpses like those witch assassins.
Instead, there were several bloodstained pointed ears and a white-bearded human with a fighting style that looked like a knight, who was surrounding the pool of blood, and with the help of obstacles such as corpses in the hall, he was circling with several meters tall and snake-haired Medusa.
Since the dark elves and the high elves are both from the same race, there is not much difference in their appearance, Levi can usually only distinguish the specific race of the other party through the armor worn by the other party, so he doesn't know for a while whether these pointed ears are dark elves or high elves.
But it didn't matter, at least Levi could tell that the pointy ears were with the human, and that was enough. There are only two possibilities for the humans who appeared in the pool of brass blood on the Black Ark, either slaves or sacrifices, but either way, they are definitely captives!
"Attack, save that human and those elves first!"
With Levi's order, a large group of fanatical believers swarmed up, and in an instant, with the absolute superiority in numbers, they stopped those Medusa, and the few people who were chased and killed found that there were so many human beings behind them unconsciously, and they had just been busy fleeing for their lives under the pursuit of the Medusa, and their tense nerves had no spare strength to see other places.
Levi waved his hand and motioned to his subordinates to treat the other party first, lest he just be rescued by the other party, but the other party hung up due to negative effects such as bloodshed, then he would lose.
Several High Elves were male and female, and after receiving Levi's help, they thanked them for the first time, and then began to clean up all kinds of filth and blood stains on their bodies the second time, which immediately made Levi determine the identity of the other party, who else could there be besides the High Elves?
And the white-bearded human knight thanked him and walked straight to Levi, "You are a knight from Bretonnia?" Although it was a questioning word, looking at the other party's expression, it was obvious that Levi's identity had been determined.
Levi smiled and nodded, "That's right, I'm the knight of the goddess, Baron Landouin, the expeditionary knight Levi." ”
Although he had completed that mission, it was probably because he had not returned to Oak Village to hand over the mission, so he was still titled Baron Landuin.
As he spoke, Levi lit up his fighting spirit, white and golden, with burning flames, flickering together, which immediately made the old knight's face stunned, "Landoin? That Muslon ... ”
Then the old knight couldn't help but kneel on one knee and knelt down directly, just when Levi was surprised when he was so charming and had the skills to make people worship, the old knight burst into tears, "Goddess, how long have I been imprisoned here, I have failed your expectations!" ”
Levi knew that he was thinking too much, and the southeast was not exactly the direction where the Knight Kingdom was located? The other party must be a knight from Bretonnia, that's why this performance!
Levi immediately stretched out his hand to help the other party up, although he saved him, but he always felt bad when the old man who was so old, still covered in injuries and seemed to be mentally unstable, knelt on the ground covered with blood.
At first, the old knight wanted to kneel on the ground and not get up, as if he was praying to his goddess, but soon he found that his current strength could not be compared with the expeditionary knight in front of him, who called himself Levi, and he was directly forcibly helped up.
Just when the old knight was a little angry and wanted to question why Levi had stopped him from praying to the goddess, Levi opened his mouth lightly, and instantly weighed all his dissatisfaction back into his stomach.
"If I were you, after all this kind of accident, I would get dressed and go into the church of the Goddess, show the best side of myself to the Goddess, and then pray."
The old knight was stunned for a moment, but after he quickly looked himself up and down, he couldn't help but bow his head in shame, and had to admit that the other party was right.
The old knight turned his head and looked at Levi with a resolute expression, "Loyal believer of the goddess, please give me a weapon, whether it is a gun, a sword, or a knife, you can do it!" ”
Levi looked at the other party for two seconds, and then he didn't say anything, and directly took out the Freezing Blade that he had just obtained from the space bag, "Fellow believers of goddesses, I don't want you to fight with the other party in your current state." ”
Although he could see that these Medusas in front of him seemed to be a little weaker than the guys he had seen, especially in terms of attack power, it seemed to have been weakened a lot, at best, it was about the level of ordinary 5th-order troops, but their defense was still very strong, and the fanatics didn't seem to be able to break through the opponent's defense.
And this old knight who knew at a glance that he had a task was weaker, just now when he took those elves with him, he was also being chased by the Medusa vigorously, unilaterally beaten, and now if he goes to fight Medusa alone, it is probably no different from sending it directly.
After reaching out and weighing the cold sword in his hand a few times, the old knight finally showed a smile at this time, "Don't worry, I will never fall down until I go to the goddess's church to pray." ”
The old knight quickly held the big knife and made a prayer movement, and then his whole body from the inside out, emitted a faint light, and quickly spread into a halo with a diameter of tens of meters, enveloping the fanatics, followed by the old knight's thunderous shout, "I am the knight of the goddess, I swear to fight against all evil, in the name of Lucas Leonard, I designate the Medusa in front of me as the enemy of justice, and swear to kill the enemy!" ”
As the old knight shouted, Leviston was surprised to find that the fanatics, who had been pressed and beaten by those Medusa and rarely could cause any effective damage to the other party, suddenly showed their power one by one at this moment, and the hammer and mace hit Medusa's body, often instantly knocking the scales flying, blood splashing everywhere, and the damage suddenly increased!
Combined with what he just said, it was naturally not difficult for Levi to guess that this must be the old knight's own special skill!
"Haha, it looks like I still have some surplus value." The old knight laughed, then threw the two-handed broadsword back, "Thank you, Knight Levi. ”
Levi caught it with a little confusion, "Don't you need it?" ”
"Of course, it's just a medium for me to cast my skills, although I don't want to admit it, but now I can't fight in person." seems to have seen something, or has thoroughly understood his current state, and the old knight's expression is very free and easy.
Levi didn't know what to say to comfort the other party for a while, so he could only sigh, "Then follow me, after the battle here, we will go to Marion Castle, and then to the Oak Village on the border, whether you are going to the capital of the knight kingdom, or to the Cacasson Fairy Cathedral where the Lake God Fairy is located, follow us along the way, and be safer." ”
"Haha, that's great, but I can't let you help for nothing!"
The old knight laughed, and then directly threw Levi an escort mission, his purpose was very simple, he only needed Levi to send him to any of the lake fairy churches, and he would be rewarded for his unique skills.
Levi naturally had no reason to refuse, he accepted it with a smile, but he confirmed with the other party again, "By the way, are those few over there all high elves?" ”
The old knight glanced at it, then nodded slightly, "That's right, they are all captives like me, their companions have been killed a lot, and those crazy women originally planned to use us as the last sacrifice, because a few of us are more valuable, but these dark elves seem to have messed up in the end, and they released these monsters." Some of them ran to the exit, and I think you should have run into them, and the rest of them either died here or ran deeper, and it seemed that nothing would end well. ”
Although there were only a few medusas in the hall at the beginning, I don't know if it was because I was attracted by the smell of blood here, or because I was woken up by the sound of battle here, at the other end of the hall, there were constantly new medusas joining the battlefield, looking at the blood stains on their weapons, Levi knew that they must have experienced a battle before, and it is estimated that the dark elves who ran in that direction were all killed.
But listening to the meaning of the old knight's words, it's not just him, those high elves don't seem to be ordinary...
Levi casually sent some of his men to protect them, and then turned to look at Otilia, who was examining the sacrificial items scattered on the ground, as well as the imprisoned Medusa, and wondered if she had found it.
"What now? What can we do to be able to recruit these Medusa? ”
Otilia raised her head with a slightly ugly face, "My lord, these witch assassins have used forbidden magic potions, although these Medusas outside have been weakened because of this, but their sanity has also been completely disturbed, we can only kill them now, and then try to recruit these imprisoned Medusa, at least they are relatively normal!" ”
"Oh, okay then." Levi shrugged his shoulders and raised the long sword in his hand, and the surging flames spread rapidly like blooming flowers, "You heard Otilia's words, attack!" ”
