Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Request for an Armistice

As soon as the one-on-two declaration came out, Moresm raised his palms upwards with his palms facing up, and the seven weapons inserted on the ground rose on their own as if they were being manipulated by invisible hands, and then Morais stretched out his hands, and the seven weapons were "shot" at Sparrow and Yushi in two directions.

A knight's spirit usually greatly increases the knight's speed, strength, or resistance to magic, but there are a few that are more different, such as Moresm's spirit, which allows him to manipulate weapons in the air with his mental power. The more the battle spirit burns, the more weapons Moresim can control, and the more flexible he becomes.

However, these weapons failed to hurt the Sparrow or Yu Shi, because the shadows on the ground surged, transforming into countless "tentacles", rolling towards the weapons that were in flight, and the three weapons that were fired at the Sparrow and the four weapons that were fired at Yu Shi were all intercepted.

"What?" Moreth was a little stunned.

It was not only the expressions on Moresm, Sparrow, and Yusz that were surprised, but also that they did not expect such a development.

"Ouch, as a big man, it's not right to bully girls. A thick man's voice rang out from all directions.

The shadow behind the sparrow suddenly elongated, and a man in a black robe, sleepy-eyed, and decadent "drilled" out of it.

"Black Fox? You Shi actually knew that this was the handiwork of the black fox, who was good at shadow magic, when the shadow helped her block the attack just now, and she wondered how this sleepy ghost, who never participated in group action, could get involved.

The sparrow was furious, and she pointed at the black fox like thunder and scolded: "When did you hide in Miss Ben's shadow? What did you see? voyeurism, pervert, dead pervert...... And what you just said 'bullying girls' is not right, which eye do you see that Miss Ben is being bullied? Just this knight boy who has no hair can bully Miss Ben, are you blind? You speak! Hey......"

The black fox plucked out his ears in boredom, and responded to the sparrow's roar in an extremely unbeaten tone: "When I say 'girl', I mean ours, Miss You Shi. As for you...... The old woman, who is hundreds of years older than me, should not join in the fun. ”

This is simply adding fuel to the fire! The "furious" sparrow really slashed at the black fox with two blades, swinging the knife even faster than when he was fighting the real enemy just now. But the blade slashed into nothingness, and the black fox turned into a shadow, materializing far from the sparrow's attack range. He waved his hand and said to Ma Yu: "Stop playing, you can continue to deal with this enemy, and I will guard the portal for you." ”

"Guarding the portal is the task given to Miss Ben by the master, so you dare to rob Miss Ben?" The sparrow was angry and rushed up the hill without looking back, leaving behind a black fox with a tired face, You Shi who shook his head and sighed, and an inexplicable knight.

In fact, letting the sparrow return to the portal is the real purpose of the black fox, although he has been asleep for a long time, he also knows the personality of the sparrow, and if she wants her to do what she wants, she can only say the opposite.

"Miss You Shi," the black fox changed his teasing tone when he said to the sparrow just now, "the thousand people I brought with me will be under your command." ”

"Okay. You Shi didn't shirk either, she knew that the black fox was a person who was very afraid of trouble.

The two daughters were gone, and the black fox yawned, and lazily looked at Moresmu, who had been watching: "You are not a simple person. I didn't say anything like 'the three of you go together.'" ”

"Hmph, because you're also not an easy opponent. Moresmu sneered and replied.

Although Moresmu's expression looked calm, his heart was shocked. When the black fox was teasing the sparrow just now, Moresm did not take advantage of the weakness to attack, not because he was happy to be a bystander, but because he did not have a chance to attack, because he deeply felt that the black fox scattered his magic power in the shadows around him, monitoring his every move in all directions and without dead ends, and an indescribable sense of urgency was not there when he was playing against the sparrow or Yu Shi. Moresmu knows very well that the Black Fox is a strong enemy of a higher level, and in the face of such an opponent, he must not have any thoughts of underestimating the enemy.

"Since we both feel that the other party is not an idle person, it is not good for anyone to make a move. I have the best of both worlds, I don't know what you think. To Moreth's surprise, the black fox didn't make a direct move, but sold a pass.

"What's the mention of yì?"

"I have no grudges against the Central Church, and I have not harmed your companions, which means that there is no reason to fight between you and me. Why don't we just stop fighting here and leave when it's over. What do you think?"

The black fox made Moresmu dumbfounded, he didn't expect that there would be such a strange person among vampires, which was very different from the concept that he knew before that "vampires are bloodthirsty and warlike fanatics", if the black fox wants to play any conspiracy, an enemy like him should not have any need to engage in conspiracy at all.

Still, Moreth stuck to his decision: "Foolish dreams!" he waved his hand to the eight attendants behind him, "You put down the arsenal and get out of here." ”

The squires removed all the weapon racks from their backs and mules, and then rode their mules away from sight as fast as they could. The last time Morethm asked them to do so was a long time ago, and the squires knew that their master was fighting against a fierce opponent who could not cope with all his might, and that they would not only do no good, but would distract him.

"Hey, can't you think about it again?" Black Fox was very disappointed with Moreth's decision.

"No more nonsense. As long as I'm a knight in the Holy See, you're unlikely to hear the second answer. Moresm took two swords and held them in his hands, and with his actions he once again broke off the Black Fox's request for a truce.

"Oops...... Is there no room for negotiation? The black fox stretched exaggeratedly, "You're a paladin, right? ”

At the same time, another paladin received a similar request for a truce.

Two sturdy figures jumped and chased each other on a continuous stretch of rooftops, making the sound of metal clashing from time to time.

The inhabitants of the area have been evacuated to safety, and the two can fight to their heart's content without fear of harming innocents. Two long swords and a round shield collided with each other a thousand times, sputtering out bursts of sparks, but they never could tell the winner.

"Are you from the Knights Templar?" asked William as he took a step back and questioned sharply after blocking Owen's side slash with his shield. He recognized Owen as using authentic Templar swordsmanship.

"No, I just spent some time in the Paladin's training camp. Owen replied lightly.

"I'm ashamed of you. You're supposed to have learned loyalty, morality, and integrity in the bootcamp, yet you're using the swordsmanship that your training gave you to serve the tiger and serve yourself as a vampire's servant. William sighed, feeling sorry for the young man in front of him.

A few months earlier, William had met and fought with another such young man, who had been a master of the Templar swordsmanship with a double sword, but had joined forces with the infidels.

William had not seen Julian since the battle with Julian had been interrupted, but he always inadvertently remembered the young man he had almost slain, for William saw in Julian's eyes not the madness or confusion of throwing himself into evil, but the goodness and firmness of guarding something, and now he saw the same look in Owen's eyes.

"I have never been a slave to anyone, and I will never be in the future, I will only follow the path that I know is right. As for the Tiger Warrior, Paladin William Mano, you are sure that what you are doing is what you think is the right way to go? You see Sophia going out of her way to protect the citizens, and yet you attack her and capture her. Don't sue me, it's up to you to decide. ”

"She didn't protect the citizens at all, she was a fellow vampire ......"

"Who's suing you? Wait a minute, don't rush to answer. Let me guess the answer, it must be His Majesty the Pope, who is respected by all the people. ”

"If you dare to speak disrespectfully to His Majesty the Pope, I cut your tongue. Although there was not a single blasphemy in Owen's words, William, who was very sensitive to this, issued a stern warning.

Owen ignored William's warning, and he suddenly changed his tone, as if the elder brother was admonishing the younger brother, "Are you teaching me a lesson? You have lost yourself. Shouldn't you think about why you obey the Pope? Is what the Pope says really necessarily right? You have to use your heart and your eyes to determine the secret behind the Pope, and the truth that has been concealed by the Central Church. ”

William was stunned for a moment, Owen's words gave him a sense of familiarity, he must have heard similar words before, but he couldn't remember when or where he heard it.

"Don't talk nonsense, give me a step down!" William shouted angrily, and rushed at Owen with his sword raised. He wants to distract himself with battles before confusion and doubt spread in his heart.

The battle between the two began again, because William was anxious to eliminate the influence of Owen's words on him, and the attack was more fierce than before, Owen saw the move-for-tat, and where the two sides fought, the outer walls of the buildings were full of traces of sword blades, and even the storm could not erase those traces.

"William, have you ever seen a knight who conceded defeat in a duel?" Owen said suddenly.

"What?" William didn't know why Owen asked like this, and in a daze, a thousandth of a second, he was slashed by Owen with a sword,

The sword was blocked by the round shield, but the attack did not collapse because of the obstruction of the blade, Owen and his sword advanced and retreated together, the weight of the whole person drove a huge impact, the two people crashed through the outer wall of a private house, and the battlefield turned from outdoor to indoor. Wherever the two swords went, wooden furniture became fragments and flew everywhere.

"Come on. All your fighting skills are taught by me, and I want to see how you beat me. ”

"Haha...... It's too early to say the winner!"

"William, Jr., it's great to see your progress, and because of that, I've decided to take this duel a little more seriously. Now that the warm-up is over, are you ready?"

"Do you think I've been hiding in the village for the past twelve years and have done nothing?"

"I often go to the woods to collect herbs that are not needed for light magic, but in fact, I have practiced in the woods day after day, year after year, in the name of collecting medicines, so my strength now is only stronger than twelve years ago. ”

......

In the midst of the fierce fight, Owen said one sentence after another that made William feel inexplicable, but very familiar. Owen imitated the moves and postures used by Uncle MΓ©cone, Putnnin McMahon, during the duel with William in Searle Village, and recounted every word that Puternin had said to William. Long before the fight, Owen had already seen that William's memory had been artificially tampered with by magic, and Owen originally planned to transfer his spiritual power to William's body through the sword body between each blade intersect, hindering the magic that tampered with his memory, but Owen soon found that things were more complicated than he thought, and the magic of tampering with memories was unexpectedly powerful, and it actually rebounded Owen's mental power. Therefore, the only way to bring William to his senses is to let him awaken that true memory from his heart.

When the Central Church tampered with William's memory, it also deleted all memories of Patnnin McMahon, but in William's subconscious, he still retained the impression of someone he respected and had a profound impact on his life, but he just couldn't remember who that person was. Now Owen is trying to recreate the battle in Serre Village, and little by little William's subconscious is triggered.

Originally, he thought that through the violent battle, he could divert his attention and stop being confused and suspicious, but it backfired, and William felt more and more confused and suspicious under Owen's "fueling the fire".

The inner hesitation made William's movements slow down involuntarily, and he was finally caught by Owen for a moment of distraction.

The sharp tip of the sword pressed against the weak throat, and the furious sword qi that filled the room immediately stopped.

"How easy it would be for me to take your life as long as I sent my sword a little forward. Owen stared at William. Despite his dominance, his tone was not overbearing, but rather "taken for granted".

"I'm losing, let's do it. Although he was controlled by the other party because of distraction, out of the dignity of a knight, William would never make excuses for winning or losing.

"I'm not going to kill you. Owen slowed his tone and said, "But I have a mention." ”

"If you want to kill, you can kill, you don't want to humiliate me. But William's attitude is still tough.

"If killing solves all problems, there will be no disputes in this world. I just want to stop this fight where there is no reason for either of us to draw our swords," Owen withdrew his sword with that, "and sit down and talk." ”
