Chapter 574: The Apple Tree Path

"Hey...... It's too much!'

Han Dong really wanted to end the game like this.

However......

Due to the battle with Gully (estimating the route, setting traps), plus the subsequent injuries were taken by the fairy to recover, it consumed a lot of time.

During this time, Able also fulfilled the request of a certain fairy and went to the depths of the garden.

Due to his sensitive perception and the fairy's gifts, Abel quickly locked on to Han Dong, who was not too far away, and rushed over to help.

"This intensity!?"

Abel's strength is top-notch, defeating a Cavaliers in the semi-finals and directly beating fellow Crusader students in the top 10 in the first game of the finals.

However, the headless fairy who was knocked down by Abel was not killed.

"Ultra-fast regeneration"

"Partial crystallization"

"No Weaknesses"

No matter how the limb is severed by Abel, a brand new arm will grow in a short period of time, and the surface will be covered with crystals.

Ignores bone restrictions and can perform a variety of twisted attacks.

The fairy's fingers also became like waspsβ€”the middle joints were bulging, and the tips of the nails were like pinpricks, a full fifteen centimeters long...... Leaves a deep scratch on Abel's dragon scale skin.

That's when it happened.

Wisps of centipede-like black sand crept into the body through the gap in the fairy's neck.

The sense of death spreads within him.

Equally...... Death withers slowly, and even fairies rely on super-fast regeneration to resist death.

It lasted a full half an hour before it was completely killed.

Abel was also sweating profusely...... This kind of strength does belong to the category of elite knights.

You know, there are hundreds of fairies like this in the depths of the garden.

"Nicholas...... How did you get hurt so badly? ”

Abel simply ignored the rules of the competition prohibiting cooperation, and immediately jumped to Han Dong's side, sniffing the strange smell emitted by Han Dong's body through his nose, judging the seriousness.

"That Gully was so tough to deal with, he almost quit the game.

In other words, cooperation is strictly forbidden in the finals, so Abel, you better go first. ”

Han Dong now just wants to get Abel out of the way, and then he is trying to get out of the game.

That's when it happened.

Referee Alonso's voice echoed in the ears of the two.

"Restrictions in the depths of the garden have been relaxed, allowing two-person [Golden Apple Picking] to work together, but it will receive less evaluation than a single person.

In addition, it is forbidden to shoot at other solo contestants during the cooperation period. ”

In an instant, there was a problem with Han Dong's mentality.

Why did everything go well in the early planning, but in the end, there were a series of problems when I wanted to retire?

Coincidental?

A flash of inspiration.

"It's not a coincidence, but it's deliberately targeting me?"

The Fairy's Rescue.

Abel was close to me when he stepped into the depths of the garden...... It's no simple coincidence.

Since the 'trials' were created by the council, this group of councillors should also have special means of control.

It's that I think it's a little simpler, if this group of parliamentarians really sets up 'means' specifically against me, there is basically no possibility of withdrawing from the competition.

After all, these guys are standing at the highest point in the Holy City.

Even if I deliberately lost the match against Gully, maybe they would have charged Gully with intentional injury and let me continue playing. ”

Thinking of this, Han Dong's mentality slowly returned to normal...... Indeed, if it were that simple, the "yellow seal" would not have been induced.

"Abel, can you give me half an hour to rest?"

Han Dong has put aside the idea of looking for a chance to lose the game, and his mentality has returned to normal.

Since this group of parliamentarians wanted to target him, Han Dong could only deal with it head-on.

"Row ......"

Abel guards the surroundings in the form of an owl.

It's just an ordinary recuperation, and it doesn't affect the conversation between the two.

"Nicholas, the ultimate goal of the trial should be to compete with the 'fairies' for the ripe golden apple that fell off the tree, right?"

"Possibly...... But not entirely sure. ”

"What do you mean?"

Perhaps there is something else to the real "golden apple...... Abel, what token did you get from the outer fairies? ”

"This."

A piece of "ear" that was intact and unchipped was in Abel's hand.

"Sure enough...... are all one of the facial structures. ”

Han Dong took out the "eye" and explained:

"What Gully got from the fairy was a tooth, which is equivalent to a "mouth...... If I'm not mistaken, Demps and the Hellboy should have gotten tokens like noses, tongues, or hair.

Since these tokens are allowed to be carried with us all the time, their function is not simply to assist in pathfinding.

The real golden apple must have some connection with these tokens. ”

"Indeed."

"Abel, promise me one thing...... If we find only one real golden apple, it's up to you to pick it up.

You are recognized as the first person in the Knight Academy, with a talent higher than that of Captain Kemon, and with the chivalry that the Holy City celebrates, and you are a human being who has no problems at all.

You won the first place, better than all of us. ”

"Hmmm......"

When Han Dong absorbs the remaining medicine in his body and recovers his body to about eighty percent, he will continue to set off.

"Ears, give me a look."

Han Dong was modified by the G virus, and when the back of his right hand was connected to his eye, he was connected to his ear.

Airplanes......

For a moment, there was a wonderful feeling of stepping into a new world.

The vision provided by the eyes can faintly glimpse an [undercurrent] swimming between different apple trees in the dark and strange depths of the garden, flowing to the deep area of the garden.

Hearing has also risen to the next level.

In addition to the murmurs of fairies gnawing their nails, grinding their teeth, and patting their bellies, a strange sound can be heard from the very depths of the garden, similar to the 'intertwining sounds' of fleshy growth and plant growth.

When both the sense of hearing and sight point to the depths, it is certain that the real golden apple is inside.

Now the difficulty is.

The only way to the depths is an "apple tree path".

A winding road made up of apple tree barricades...... There are about ten fairies under each tree.

Even if it's perfect, it's still possible to be discovered.

Once discovered, hundreds of fairies will be triggered, and the journey to the finals will come to an end.

Abel stared at such a dense and strange fairy, his white hair standing on end and sweat overflowing...... Abel is not very confident in his 'stealth' ability.

The Beast Knight itself is known for being wild, and in his daily training, Abel also puts the 'cheetah training' of stealth and sneak attack in a less important position.

That's when it happened.

Syllable......

Han Dong grabbed Abel's palm and whispered:

"Abel...... I will take you through the "Apple Tree Trail", and then I will fall into a state of weakness, and it will be up to you to judge for yourself and obtain the real golden apple. ”

Let's talk about it.

Han Dong took a step forward.

This step is a step into the world of death.

Everything in the surroundings turns grayish-white as a symbol of death, the apple trees are completely withered and decayed, and the fairies are nowhere to be seen...... Moving forward in the realm of death, Han Dong will also be under tremendous pressure.

Every second, the skin is clumpy and peels off from the surface.
