Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The time that passed in a hurry never stopped, and while everyone in Stormwind and the Imperial Capital was in full swing preparing everything for the challenge, the hall of the other continent was dim and dull and full of rust smell......

The huge rough torch was inserted in the groove of the wall that seemed to be violently punched, and the crackling sound of the flame not fully burned was particularly harsh in the silence, which, combined with the lifeless atmosphere and empty environment around it, made normal people have the illusion of being in hell

With his head bowed and his face hidden in the darkness was expressionless, Rhodes knelt quietly on one knee in the middle of the hall with his helmet in his hand, and only the occasional slight tremor of his body in silence indicated that Finn's sword was still causing pain to his body before

Above him, the mysterious leader was still wearing a visor, his thick arms resting on one cheek, and his burly body straddled the Iron Throne, and most of his whole person was naturally hidden in shadows that could not be illuminated by the light

Unlike the last time he met Rhodes alone, there were eleven knights with similar armor standing straight on both sides of the leader, but they were extremely tall knights, but their extra-long arms made them look a little out of harmony, and the coldness that continued to emanate from their bodies made them seem to have no trace of breath......

After a long silence, perhaps seeing that the leader did not mean to speak for the time being, the person on the left moved a step forward, and the eyes under the visor seemed to be staring at Rhodes with playfulness and mockery, and his mouth spoke dryly in a somewhat awkward lingua franca

"I said a long time ago, human beings are cowardly and incompetent beings, and their only role is to be the food and slave of our people, Quack, Rod, Rod Weir, what kind of courage made you come back here like a dog after living up to the high expectations of adults, do you really think that after putting on this armor, you will have the same status as us, stupid poor fellow!"

With this person's words, the other ten people around couldn't help but let out a hoarse strange laugh, and there was no trace of warmth in the eyes of Rhodes, who was supposed to be their companion, as if it was like ...... It's like the way humans look at ants and poultry

Clenching his fists tightly, Rod glanced coldly at the person who spoke, and then stubbornly raised his head and looked at the still silent leader in the center without dodging, and the same cold words burst out of his mouth

"Nefarian, keep your mouth in mind or I can't guarantee you'll be able to use it in the future, maybe you're missing the idiot who was killed for pissing me off?"

"Boom!"

The man who was called Nefarian by Rhodes took a step forward when he heard this, the heavy armor and great force made the floor tremble slightly, and his palm had already touched the hilt of the sword with a cold face, and his eyes were even more ill-intentioned at the position of Rod's neck

"Don't compare that waste killed by humans to me, Rod, even if you are qualified to be on an equal footing with us real horror knights with the mercy and mercy of your lords, arrogance is still the way to die, as long as I, Nefarian, am here, the first warrior under my lordship will never be able to take the turn of you, a weak human!"

"That's enough, stand down!"

The voice like the bell rang faintly came out of the leader's mouth, although there were only two words that gradually faded, but Nefarian, who had just been invincible, was like a lightning strike, and he did not hesitate to return to his original position, and his hands were placed respectfully at his side without leaving the weapon, making people almost think that there was an illusion, as if the arrogant and domineering person before did not exist at all......

With the sound of metal rubbing, the leader slowly stood up, his height of more than two meters almost blocked all the light behind him, and he raised his foot and walked to Rod, who was still kneeling there on one knee, and looked at it for a long time before speaking

"I'm disappointed Rhodes, you have almost failed all my expectations, although it seems to me that your strength is not enough to complete the task, but under your prayers and stubbornness I tolerated your willfulness, but how did you repay my gifts, huh?"

Seemingly hesitant, the leader paused, then turned to the other eleven terror knights who were gloating

"A thousand Dark Knights are almost gone, and the heads of thirty thousand devout disciples are now being eaten by insects and ants piled up outside the Imperial Capital of Humanity, and what about our enemies? The pressure and fear that had been given to them before is gone, and your defeat has made those humans mistakenly and optimistically believe that they still have hope of victory, and while that doesn't change anything, it still makes me angry......"

The palm of his hand seemed to be placed on Rod's shoulder casually, but the ensuing huge pressure made the bones of his shoulder moan in pain, and cold sweat instantly poured out from his pale face

"Do you have anything to defend yourself? My baby! ”

Struggling to raise his head, holding back the increasingly unbearable force, Rhodes stubbornly opened his bitten blood-soaked lips

"I don't have anything to defend my lord, I accept any punishment under your will unconditionally, I'm just unwilling, unwilling to fail after such efforts, power, I desire more than ever to be strong and can destroy everything!"

As if with some satisfaction, the leader slowly let go of the arm that was pressing Rod, and the complete and deeply sunken palm print on the heavy armor on his shoulder was shocking, and he looked down at Rod's unevasive gaze and sighed

"Yes, power! The ignorance of the world makes them chase too much after those useless things, but they do not know that only power is eternal, remember this defeat my child, he will make you stronger, as for those punishment knights...... Hmph, there will be a chance, they seem to have forgotten that this is not Pande......"

The last few words were barely audible, and the leader slowly crossed the Iron Throne, waving his hand at Nefarian, who was reluctant to speak

"How many failures have you not been able to see the reality clearly? Our few clansmen alone will never be able to win, and Rhodes has accepted my punishment to complete the task of that supreme being, so that our clan can leave this damn place of confinement, and in the future, I don't want to see any accidents against each other, understand? ”

Everyone, including Rod, subconsciously bent down deeply

"Under your will, this land will belong to us......"

Nodding noncommittally, the leader's cold gaze quickly swept over everyone, including Rod

"We don't have any excuses to fail, kill them and let us go back to our hometown......"
