Chapter 113: Chess pieces

Although Cassius and Sophia have not studied military affairs, it is common knowledge that it is a common sense that there will be a heavy knight on a horse in such a narrow corridor

However, the knight in front of him did not pay attention to the questions of his companions at all, he gently raised the reins of the horse, urging the horse to move forward, and the four iron hooves struck the wooden staircase heavily, causing the whole staircase to vibrate, making a rattling sound, and the knight approached his companions step by step, and the three companions stepped back step by step, just as Ray was thinking about how to use the terrain to knock down the heavy knight who was blocked in the passage, and at the bend just now, another heavy knight turned out

In a few moments, the knight's spear in front of him was almost attached to Ray's face

How could this be the case, the knight's actions provoked Ray, and the blood pact dragon spear in his hand slammed into the knight's steel spear, making a dull metal collision sound, and the knight's spear was pulled aside

But the strange scene happened again, only to see that at the intersection of the two spears, the familiar miniature black hole appeared again, and Lei was startled, but before he could react, he had been sucked into the miniature black hole - along with the knight and the war horse in front of him......

Great, when he met a hard idea, Joyka gasped and rubbed his numb right hand just now, he was too light on the enemy, he didn't expect these seemingly ordinary soldiers to be so difficult

The eight infantry seemed to be connected as a whole, like an impenetrable wall, no matter which one Joika chose to attack, he would be flanked by the two soldiers on the left and right, their defenses were impenetrable, Joika could not knock down any of them after several attacks, not only that, but this wall was also approaching Joika step by step, not to mention that at this time, Joika was seriously wounded, and his combat effectiveness was affected by Yanzhòng, even when he was in his best condition, it was definitely not an easy task to defeat these eight sergeants who were so skillfully coordinated

Damn, don't they have a little flaw, the observant Joey cartoon Guò, with his keen observation and adaptability, has repeatedly defeated enemies stronger than him, completed impossible and unfinished tasks, even now this battle is no exception, Joika is convinced that any enemy will have weaknesses and flaws, as long as he observes it carefully, he will be able to succeed in one blow, reverse the disadvantage, and turn defeat into victory

Taking a moment of respite, Joyka's eyes swept quickly like a condor, and then his gaze fell on the floor at his feet-the black and white lattices, and Joika's head was racing at this time: the lattices on the ground were eight vertically and horizontally, and there were sixty-four squares, and they were all black and white...... Ah, is it --

At this time, Joika's head flashed with inspiration, he seemed to think of something, in order to verify it, Joika took a deep breath, took off the longbow on his back, held it in his left hand, and then suddenly rushed towards one of the soldiers, and the three soldiers saw Joika rushing towards him, and immediately put on an attacking posture, Joica's sword suddenly stopped when it was less than half a meter away from the soldier in the middle, and the blade turned to the soldier on the left, and the soldier raised his shield to block - but then there was no metal-to-metal collision sound, but there was a heavy sound like other objects hitting the iron shield- -It turns out that it was not the sword that came into close contact with the iron shield, but Joika's leather boots, and when he tricked the soldier into raising his shield to block his sword, he suddenly withdrew his sword and kicked his right foot on the shield, and his left foot jumped

Huh, with the strength of the round shield's blocking, Joyka's whole body jumped in the air with several weapons and attacked Joyka in mid-air at the same time, but Joyka had already expected that he threw down the Mithril Longbow in his left hand - making a series of flower-la-la sounds, and the longbow took the place of its owner, and the longbow was knocked out, and the bowstring was split, but the bow made of Mithril alloy was not damaged at all

With the cover of the longbow, Joyka escaped the range of the soldiers with a beautiful backflip in the air and landed safely on the ground......

Even Ray was tricked, and there was no trace of Ray everywhere, so Sophia returned to Cassius and said

Cassius ignored her, and the fat mage seemed to be lost in thought, standing still

Cassius Sophia shouted, even your own brother is missing, aren't you in a hurry

Yes...... I'm sorry, at Sophia's shout, Cassius seemed to come to his senses, and he looked up and said, "I've been thinking about a question just now."

Oh, Sophia cast an inquiring look, Cassius was a learned man, known for his calmness in battle, and the issues that would make him still think about it at such a critical juncture must have been very important

I'm wondering if Joyka and Ray were attacking the enemy when they disappeared, could it be that if we start a war with these enemies, we will be teleported somewhere else, Cassiusto raise your chin, Sophia, think about it, if that's the case, what is the purpose of the enemy, the eight soldiers and the two knights, will they just want to fight Joyka and Ray, and if so, as long as Joyka and Ray can win their respective enemies, they will be able to come back

Really, Sophia winked, you sure

No, Cassius shook his head and said that this is just the best I can guess, and I can't be sure yet...... Originally, Cassius wanted to say the worst possible outcome, but the words came to his lips and swallowed back

What are you afraid of, Sophia asked

It's not much to speculate on my part, and I'm not sure yet, and Cassius doesn't want to say the worst, but one thing is for sure, new enemies will emerge next

You mean keep walking, Sophia asked

Well, Cassius nodded, but I have another inference, but it will only be answered when we move on

Ray patted his head to see if what he saw was real, and he found himself in a sealed space, seemingly with nothing but the black and white squares under his feet......

Suddenly, Ray sensed a slight fluctuation of the air behind him, and a thick murderous aura, Thunder subconsciously rolled forward on the spot, and a sharp submachine spear swept past the base of his ear - just like Ray was half a second late to dodge, at this time his head had been knocked open

After stabilizing his body, Ray turned around and saw that the two heavily armored knights he had met in the stairwell just now were riding their war horses, one left and one right, appeared in front of Ray, and the knight on the right stabbed the steel spear in his hand to where Ray was just now, and saw Ray escape his attack, the knight withdrew his spear, tightened the reins of the horse, and the two front hooves of the war horse rose into the air - this was the precursor of the knight's charge

Come on, Ray takes up the Blood Pact Dragon Lance and gladly accepts the challenge of these two enigmatic enemies

As soon as they kept up and did not encounter any more enemies, Cassius and Sophia ran to the end of the stairs, where the last of the seven sins came into view, and the arrogant stone door came into view, but this did not mean that Cassius's prophecy was wrong, because when they had fully ascended the last step of the stairs, they clearly saw that there were two new enemies waiting for them in front of the big stone gate

The two men looked like elderly men, dressed in ornate friars' robes, symbolizing bishopship, with a cross hanging from their necks and the Holy Book in their hands

Looking at the bishopric marks on their bodies, at least the archbishop of a country is a high position in the Holy See, why would they stay in this place, Sophia noticed the attire of the two men and asked her questions

One of the bishops answered her in the most direct way, and he opened the Holy Book in his hand, and from the book a red light the size of a bowl shone directly at Sophia

Boom - the wall behind Sophia was hit by the red light, and it was pierced through a large hole about one meter in diameter, and the sand and gravel continued to cut from the fracture of the hole, judging from the power of the red light, if Sophia was hit head-on, her upper body was no longer at this time

Ah, you're hurt, Sophia looked at Cassius who threw her to the ground at the last moment, and was about to thank him, but found that the magic robe on the mage's right hand had been burned off most of it, revealing a section of blackened skin, apparently Cassius had been injured by the afterglow of the red light just now

It doesn't matter if the skin hurts, Cassius gritted his teeth and said, let's not talk about this for now...... Sophia, you have to understand that standing in front of you and me right now is not human

No, Sophia couldn't help but look at the two clergy who had just attacked her

My guess was right, they were pawns, Cassius said

chessman

Haven't you seen it yet, Sophia, Cassius explained: soldiers, knights, bishops have already appeared, which means that there are castles, queens, and kings that have not yet appeared.
