Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Belated Victory
"How are you?" Al stepped forward and asked, if it wasn't for the knight boss who suppressed the demon parasitic on him in the end, everyone would not be able to output so comfortably, so half of the credit for this victory is this knight's. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"I'm fine, better than ever." The knight said, but Alvin felt a little wrong, raised his hand, and brushed up a healing spell, only to find that the other party no longer showed a health bar.
"How can I save you?" Alvin asked directly, although he knew that according to the setting of the game, this knight was probably mortal, but Alvin still had a lot of hole cards in his hand, and there may not be no room for recovery.
"There's no need for it." The knight said, "More than two hundred years have passed, and even if it were not for the erosion of demonic power, I would have died a long time ago, and I have earned it to live to this day." ”
"......" everyone is silent, birth, old age, sickness and death, it is the law of nature, no matter who can avoid it, although everyone can't bear it, but at this time, they can only choose to follow their own wishes.
"Well, don't feel sorry for me, you can be freed from endless torture, you have done me a great favor. By the way, in the basement of the church, there are some weapons, and if there is anything useful, just take them, and it will be a reward for you, and besides...... knight turned to Alvin, "can you tell me your name?" ”
As soon as everyone saw this posture, they knew that the most important reward was coming, but no one felt jealous, firstly, everyone already had a considerable recognition of Alvin's strength and felt that he deserved it, and secondly, this legendary knight was obviously a figure of the Templar forces, and most of the rewards were also related to the priesthood profession, so everyone's envy was much lighter.
Alvin reported his name, the knight pondered for a moment, and then asked Alvin a few questions, all about the details of the battle just now, Alvin answered one by one, the legendary knight listened, nodded endlessly, not only him, but the people around him also had an eye-opening feeling when they heard Alvin's answer, before they just felt that Alvin was in command, and the copy of the wasteland was actually over once! But now they know that between the lightning and flint, Alvin actually thought about so many things, to do this, a calm mind, insight, logical reasoning ability, accurate calculation, and instantaneous reaction ability can be said to be indispensable, before they thought that they were somewhat lucky, but now it seems that what others have to rely on luck to do, Alvin has done it by strength.
"Well, sure enough, I read that right, you're the kind of person who was born to be fit for the battlefield." The Legend Knight nodded, "As a senior, I don't have anything to give you, only the certificate saved in my early years of cultivation, and now it is useless to me, I will give him to you, I hope you can make good use of it." ”
"This ......" Alvin wanted to speak, but he didn't know how to speak, the so-called proof of cultivation, of course, is talking about the number of demon removal points, Alvin is also a priest, knowing that there is no point of demon removal to the priest What surprises, NPC priests only have one life, and they can't get a copy, so for them, every magic point is a condensation of blood and tears, and they are all beautiful hopes and pursuits for the future. The Destroyer is not gold, but it is more precious than gold.
"I see." Alvin nodded, there is only one way to inherit the demon elimination points, that is, when a priest is dying, all his demon elimination points are transferred to another trustworthy priest, and after the transfer is completed, even if the priest does not die, he will lose his status as a priest from now on, so this can be said to be a method that will not be used until forced to do so.
The inheritance ceremony of the demon slaying point was very simple, Alvin leaned down according to the other party's request, and after a few seconds the inheritance was completed, Alvin stood up and found that the knight's figure was a little more clumsy.
"Senpai!" Alvin couldn't help but exclaim, "Do you have any unfulfilled wishes, tell me, and I will do my best to fulfill them!" ”
Hearing this, the people around couldn't help but put their eyes on the legendary knight, under normal circumstances, such a boss will have a task, even if he can't receive the task, everyone wants to hear what kind of faith this knight has relied on to survive these two hundred years.
"Wish?" Hearing this, the knight fell silent, looked at the sky with his sword, and seemed to have countless thoughts for a while, and after a long time, the knight spoke again, "There is no more." ”
"What, no wishes?" One of them cried out in surprise, "Then you have been here for so long......
"You're asking me why I've been here for so long, right?" The knight said freely.
"Uh...... Be. The man who had just spoken nodded.
"For the sake of victory, of course." The knight said, "I can hold out for so long only because I don't want to lose to the demon's power, that's all. ”
"Then don't you have any other concerns?" Someone asked, but as soon as the words came out, he himself felt that this sentence was inappropriate.
"Concerned ......" The knight chewed these two words, when he looked up at the sky before, he didn't think about this problem, but more than two hundred years have passed, even if he still has descendants alive, it will be seven or eight generations later, even if it is a noble and rich businessman, he can't bless so many generations. Thinking of this, he didn't plan to let Alvin and the others go to great lengths to find his descendants. Moreover, if he really wanted to talk about it, he would not remember the faces of his wife and children for a long time.
Some things, from the moment they set foot on the battlefield, have been left behind. Now recalling the things before the demonization, all he can remember is the dark red sky, countless demons, countless people fell under the claws of demons, when one of their knights was responsible for covering the retreat of civilians, and as a result, they were besieged in this church, more than thirty people, and in the end only he survived, under grief and anger, he broke through his own limits and successfully advanced to the legendary level, relying on this power, he barely resisted the erosion of demons, although he still failed to save anything, but relative to others, He's already one of the lucky ones.
The knight held his sword in his hand and looked in the direction of E-Shangge for a long time before he asked, "Which side do you think can win the battle between humans and demons?" ”
"This ......" Alvin hesitated for a moment, of course Alvin would say good things by the way, but Alvin had an intuition, this knight, at the last moment of his life, wanted not to hear words of comfort. So, Alvin pondered for a moment, and finally said, "I don't know. ”
"Don't know?" The knight was a little surprised by his answer, but after thinking about it, he found that this was the only answer that best suited his current feelings. Can humans defeat demons? This question has been answered for a long time, since the war of the godslayer, I don't know how many cities have been destroyed by the devil's plots, countless people have fallen under the claws of the demons, and several kingdom-sized lands have become twisted places. Humanity, has it really won a battle? No! Has humanity ever managed to regain a lost ground? Not even more.
Demons are almost invincible to humans, but some people don't want to believe that. These people are not fools, they just need a belief that will allow them to keep fighting, and they are the same people who defended this church in the first place.
However, many things are not transferred by will, especially on the battlefield, one defense line after another, one by one comrades fell, if it was just to cover the evacuation of the people, they did enough. But why are they still fighting? The knight had been at a loss for a moment, but he had undoubtedly found the answer.
"Soldiers, from the moment they set foot on the battlefield, have put everything out of the way, wives and children, we have never looked back and looked back." The knight said with his sword in hand, and the cricket figure seemed to stretch again, "Once we set foot on the battlefield, we only have one thing left." If you want to live, if you want to be reunited with your family, if you want to defend your country, if you want to continue your race, there is only one way, and that is to win. In a war where everything is meaningless, there is only one thing that still makes sense, and that is victory! At least in that respect, I was luckier than everyone else, and I finally waited for the victory. ”
"I don't know the answer to the question of whether humans can defeat demons in the end, and I don't want to ask you to give me an answer, but at least I'm standing here now, and behind me is still the land of humans, and I promised me a fight, and the rest is up to you."
