Chapter 47: Talking to the Skeleton Knight
Huang Shurong's sword qi instantly crossed the distance between the two, and the skeleton knight turned to the left as expected, and the cloak behind him was raised, revealing the shield on his left arm, steadily blocking the sword qi, and lifting it to the left.
The roar of the two colliding exploded, and the sword qi of the shot was actually blocked by it lightly, and flew into the air.
You must know that Huang Shurong's sword qi was even faster and more powerful than Barrett's shooting at close range, but the shield with a pure white background and thorn flower pattern that the skeleton knight used to block the sword qi actually only cut through the damage less than a centimeter deep.
After the defense, the skeleton knight's eyes glowing red and glowed deeply at Huang Shurong, then withdrew his shield and turned his head and ran towards the big tree in the center.
Da Da Da β
Monte, who ran away from the team, caught up with Huang Shurong, who was slowing down, and said to him eagerly.
"Quick! Otherwise, this trip will be in vain."
The troops he brought behind him spread out to the left and right, following the orders left by Monte, blocking the entrance to the valley, but for the skeleton knights who could stand up to Zod, Monte didn't have much hope for them, as long as he created some obstacles.
In a moment, the skeleton knight had already reached the bottom of the tree, and the ominous aura of the powerful creatures of the Netherworld spread wantonly, as if it should not exist in the world. The little bee beasts perched on the big tree were immediately terrified, and they all changed from the appearance of normal elves to hideous faces, and then swooped down on the arriving skeleton knights in groups.
The Skeleton Knight held a noble sword in his right hand, and the ghost horse under his seat leaped to his feet, and slashed at the swarm of bees and beasts that attacked him, slicing a large area of bees in two in an instant.
In this way, the skeleton knight made an invincible advance towards the inconspicuous little hole under the big tree amid the constant swarm of bees and beasts.
Monte and Huang Shurong saw the battle of the skeleton knight from a distance, and when they came closer, they could realize the superb swordsmanship of the knight, the sharp and accurate swing, and the impermeable sword curtain, so that all the bees and beasts could not get close to their arms, and not even the splashes of blood were not stained with a trace.
The Skeleton Knight successfully reached the tree hole, raised his left leg on his horse and stepped to the right, slid off the horse skillfully, handed the sword to his left hand, crouched down and dug into the tree hole, and took out a Behelette with a messy appearance.
Then he stood up with his tall body, immediately raised his head and opened his mouth, and took the Behellet and passed it to his mouth.
Monte and Huang Shurong walked on the path where the skeleton knight had fought just now, and when he saw this scene, Monte raised his hand and shouted eagerly.
"Stop ββ!"
However, the Skeleton Knight's movements did not stop, and no one was waiting to devour Behlet.
In the Fog Forest outside the valley, Song Jing only put a healing talisman on his left shoulder, and pressed the position of the heart on the incarnation of the Apostle Luo Silian with his right hand, and launched the alchemy with a serious face, the flesh and blood of the wound next to the heart squirmed as quickly as if it had life, and the split wounds continued to converge with each other, and suddenly he said a person's name from his mouth.
"Flora!"
"Floraββ!
Hearing this person's name, the movement of the skeleton knight's hand stopped abruptly, closed his mouth, and looked at Huang Shurong, who suddenly said this name, and a serious voice came from his mouth that did not open and close.
"Who are you? How do you know her?! β
Listening to the voices coming from the team channel, their thoughts flowed quickly, and the slightest thought kept flashing.
"A messenger of God?" Yuyama said hesitantly.
"No, his enemy is the Hand of God, and it would be even worse!" Song Jing immediately retorted, and at the same time kept thinking about it in his heart, and finally made up his mind and said, "No matter how much you say, he won't trust us, so just say what we do!" β
Huang Shurong had an idea in his heart, and said seriously to the skeleton knight who was shooting directly at him, "We are the ones who hunted down the Apostle and captured Behlet. β
"Human?!"
The skeleton knight asked very calmly, but Huang Shurong could clearly perceive that the skeleton's eyes shot out a gaze that kept looking at him, thinking that the sword qi attack just now made him have a little doubt.
"Among us are knights, magicians and other people with lofty ideals, and the fairy apostle who has just defeated the troubled side here is our proof!" Monte stepped forward, his blue eyes staring earnestly at the Skeleton Knight.
Seeing the great sword on Monte's back that didn't look like a human being and the current situation in the Valley of Mist, the Skeleton Knight gradually had a certain idea in his heart.
In fact, the most important thing is the human troops in formation at the entrance not far away, in his observation, those people did not have the fear of Monte and Huang Shurong using extraordinary powers, but instead trusted the two, making him remember the years buried in his heart.
As if he had an idea of communication, he asked the two of them, "So, how do you know her name?!" β
"It's a story told by the magicians in the team, I heard that in the distant past, the witch who followed the skeleton knight happened to be Flora!" Huang Shurong said according to Song Jing's original words in the team channel without changing his face, if the skeleton knight is asking about the details or content, he can only continue to explain the story due to its age and word of mouth, which leads to the distortion of the story.
However, the skeleton knight only thought quietly for a while, not caring whether what everyone said was true or false, and raised Behelet, who was holding it in his right hand, and said:
"You want this?"
"Yes, it has been interpreted all along, that this is the key to the two worlds, and we note that this is undoubtedly the instrument for the birth of the apostles. So in order to prevent more apostles from causing trouble to the world, we decided to crusade against the apostles and collect these Behlets. The crowd had no other reason, and in desperation, Monte could only bite the bullet and say in one breath.
"You are doing this by the way of death..."
The skull knight's isolated posture retracted, and he looked at the two people in front of him seriously, although he couldn't believe that there were really humans doing such a thing, but the karma generated by killing the apostle could not be faked.
"Hahaha..."
Monte stopped talking and burst into laughter, shaking his head as he said:
"We already knew..."
And Huang Shurong next to him did not highlight his timid expression, and said with a serious face.
"Although doing so will provoke the existence in the depths of the Netherworld, for the sake of this peace in the world, we will not back down and will not give up!"
"Hahaha..."
A low laugh rang out, and the Skeleton Knight laughed, but not at the two of them, but at the sudden anxiety in his heart for the two of them. Is there really such a person in this world? Even the magicians who control the power of the elements are huddled in the nodes of the netherworld and reality, and do not interfere too much with the existence of the apostles, and are even more taboo about the hand of the gods. But whether they were motivated by the preservation of peace on earth or by peering on the power of the apostles, the crusade against the apostles is now a fact.
