The black knight emerged from the cold air, with obvious hostility on his body, and at a glance he knew that it was not his own people, or a quiet bystander. The Black Knight wore a fully enclosed horn helmet and couldn't see what she looked like, but the only thing that could be confirmed was the Black Knight's gender, as the bulges on the cuirass and the slim waist armor were clearly made to fit a woman's body - beyond that, nothing else was known about her.

"Whew" - the female black knight didn't say a word, and as soon as she came up, she waved her spear at Sophia.

Although they were more than thirty meters apart, Sophia still felt the sharp edge scratching pain from the spear, and she subconsciously avoided it. In an instant, a few strands of hair were cut off. The water elemental in the air condensed into ice, extending the length of the spear, and Sophia's head was almost pierced by the ice spear.

Sophia dodged very wolfly, but the other party did not let her go at all, and stabbed the spear at Sophia continuously, firing an ice spear in the air. Sophia retreated step by step, constantly dodging, there was no room to fight back, she shivered in the cold, she couldn't let those ice spears touch her, because she had a terrible death aura from these ice, it seemed that as long as she was touched by these ice, the energy of life would be completely absorbed.

However, the Black Knight's attack was not just a long-range fire of ice spears, as she galloped while Sophia dodged and was flawless. Out of the corner of her eye, Sophia caught a glimpse of the terrifying black shadow rushing towards her, and in a panic, she raised her short sword to block it.

The dagger made a dull sound when it collided with the spear, and the force of the impact made Sophia feel like her arm was completely unconscious, but it wasn't the strictest thing, as she noticed that the dagger was freezing rapidly.

Frightened, Sophia hurriedly threw away the short sword, which was completely covered in ice in the short time between the time it was taken off and when it fell to the ground. Not only does the ice of death wipe out the energy of life, but it also turns inorganic matter into a fragile one, and the short sword that fell to the ground, along with the silver cross wrapped around it, shattered like inferior glass.

Sophia, who was completely unarmed, panicked, and she even wanted to summon the Valkyrie's soul for a moment, even though she also knew that it was impossible for her body to last long. But what Sophia thought, the black knight didn't care at all, she raised her spear, swung it twice in the air, and then plunged it into the ground.

An unimaginably large amount of frozen magic was poured into the ground along the spear, and then converged on Sophia's side. Sophia was startled and turned to run, but her efforts were ultimately in vain, for the area of the freeze was too large for her to escape.

"Ah......h

With Sophia's scream, a huge ice "rose from the ground", freezing Sophia's whole person inside, becoming an "ice grave" with a radius of more than ten meters and a height of three or four meters.

The black knight pulled out his spear and threw it at the "ice mound", only to hear a "quack", and the huge ice cubes were continuously sealed inside, and they shattered into ice slag together, and then the ice slag sublimated into water vapor, forming a white mist with a larger range, and after a few seconds, the white mist completely dissipated, whether it was a person or a fragment of cold ice, all of them were invisible, as if they had never appeared in the world.

Blair watched the whole process from the side. He didn't know what the grudge between the Black Knight and Sophia was, but as soon as he made a move, he killed Sophia and completely destroyed the corpse without hesitation, which made this murderous cold-blooded assassin chill.

"Tuk", "Tuk", "Duk" ...... The Black Knight turned his horse's head and faced Blair.

From the moment the Black Knight appeared, Blair didn't think she was his own, and after eliminating Sophia, it was finally his turn. Blair was not going to sit still, he knew that he could not outrun four horse's hooves on his two legs, and the only thing left to do now was to fight to the death.

However, Blair soon discovered that he was unable to lift the Soul Blade at all, and that the commands given by his brain could not be conveyed to his limbs. Because unconsciously, the black knight's frozen magic has been transmitted to Blair through the surface, freezing his blood and nerves. At this time, Blair looked no different from usual on the surface, but his body was already frozen, but he couldn't feel the cold at all, because the nerves responsible for controlling his feelings were also frozen.

The Black Knight trotted his horse to Blair's side, and with one hand lifted the poor "ghost assassin" on his horse, and placed it sideways on his mount.

A cloud of cold fog appeared in front of the black knight, and the black knight and the war horse rushed into the cold mist, and after 2 or 3 seconds, the cold fog disappeared, and there was no trace of the black knight, the war horse, and Blair again.

A few hours later.

Hundreds of kilometers away from the Kuka Mountains, in the turbulent northern part of the Fayele Empire, there is a withered wood. Originally, this forest was a beautiful place full of greenery and life, but a few months ago, the troops of the Fayalu Emperor** and the alliance of the four northern countries started a large-scale battle in this forest.

The flames of the war burned the trees, the blood stained the earth red, and the soil was polluted, and the corpses of the dead on both sides were uncollected, and the stench of the rotting corpses permeated the air for a long time, even in the dog days when the sun was shining, the sky above the woods was shrouded in a foul-smelling fog, blocking the sun's rays, so that although several months had passed, the woods still did not regain their vitality.

Blair, the "ghost assassin", sat with his back against a dead tree that had been charred by fire. The blood in the frozen heart and torso had thawed, allowing him to come to his senses, but the blood flow and nerves in his limbs were still frozen.

When he opened his eyes, the first thing that caught his eye was the terrifying black horn helmet.

"Y-Who are you? Why did you arrest me?" Blair tried to calm himself down, and the fact that the Black Knight did not kill him as soon as he did to Sophia showed that he had a value worth his life, so Blair must make good use of this to keep himself alive.

"Speak!" said the Black Knight, holding his spear to Blair's throat, and from behind his horned helmet came a hollow, cold female voice that seemed to come from the void, "Lackey of the Lich King, tell me a piece of the Tower of Babel." ”

"What, the Tower of Babel!" Blair heard an unheard of name.

Suddenly, Blair felt a sharp pain in his left foot, which made him scream, and although he couldn't see any change in his left foot from the outside, the nerve concussion was very clear.

"I abolished the nerves in one of your legs, and the muscles of that leg have been completely necrotic, and this is the end of your stubborn resistance. ”

"I really don't know anything about the Tower of Babel...... Ah!!!h

Another scream came from Blair's mouth, this time with his right hand.

"Don't pretend to be confused. You are not allowed to miss a word about the Tower of Babel, its location, the progress of its construction, the status of the guards, and other parameters!" The Black Knight bent down and lifted Blair's collar.

Although he couldn't see the eyes obscured by the horned helmet, Blair still felt the deepest darkness.

"You, it's useless to ask someone who doesn't know about it. ”

"Asking for hardship!"

Once again, the Black Knight manipulated the freezing magic that had been infused into Blair's body. Unlike the previous two times, this time she did not destroy Blair's right foot at once, but let the muscles in his leg die little by little, greatly increasing his pain.

The torture lasted about two minutes before it ended with Blair's mournful screams. This brutal handcuffing caused Blair to faint in severe pain, but the Black Knight manipulated the magic injected into Blair's heart and blood vessels, strengthening his heart and lung to the limit. The poor victim awoke again in a series of screams.

"Ask for ...... Please, kill me......" Blair didn't want to endure such torture anymore, and the Black Knight begged to die to get out of his pain.

"The Lich King started building the Tower of Babel more than a thousand years ago, and there's no reason why the people of the Isle of the Dead shouldn't know. Challenge my patience again, and I will make you unable to survive or die. ”

Hearing the Black Knight's tone, Blair knew that he was finally doomed, and he closed his eyes in despair.

"I said no, but behind my back, I secretly made it bad, and Little Jack's bear child was really ignorant. A sudden voice interrupted the Black Knight's torture.

"Who are you? What a bold man to humiliate Commander Jack. The Black Knight shouted at the voice that came from within.

From her tone, you could hear that the black knight was angry and frightened, angry that the other party's words had stained her most important thing, and surprised that with her own strength, she couldn't find this person approaching.

"The Lich King...... My lord. In contrast to the Black Knight's wrath, the weak Blair smiled with joy. He heard who the voice was, and knew that his life should not be extinguished, and he had escaped death once again.

"What? you're the Lich King!" the Black Knight asked, unconvinced, to the voice.

"War, famine, disease, and sudden death support the four pillars of the city-state of Naello, and are also the four right-hand men of Little Jack's subordinates, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. I think Your Excellency should be the 'Sudden Death' of the 'Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse'. After a pause, the Lich King continued, "If you want to know anything, you can ask me directly, why bully children?"
