201 Charles
Chen Yi saw an undisguised killing intent in the eyes of this gloomy man.
"Die."
The moment the two made eye contact, the sword in the man's hand stabbed over, not giving him time to react at all, the speed was extremely fast, and it was in front of his eyes in an instant.
As soon as he raised his hand, an ice arrow shot at the other party's eyes very abruptly.
The man subconsciously flashed to the side, a ball of blood had burst out of his throat, his body stiffened, and he fell to the ground with a bang.
Chen Yi put away his sword and looked at the man's face, which had not changed in the slightest from beginning to end, and a trace of extremely strange feeling surged in his heart.
Just from the speed and strength of the opponent's sword, he judged that this man had the strength of a great knight, so as soon as he struck, it was the strongest combination of moves.
That ice arrow was condensed directly by him with the magic power in his body. This is also the only spell that can achieve an instantaneous effect during the apprenticeship stage. Unfortunately, the power is too small.
Ice arrows of this power are not even zero-level spells, he can only release two in a row, and then, the magic power in his body will be exhausted, and he can only recover through meditation.
The magic power that can be stored in the apprentice's body is limited, and spells are the magic power that uses physical strength, through resonance and other methods, to pry the magic elements of the heavenly space, so as to form such a great power.
Only when you reach the realm of a formal wizard can you have the luxury of directly using the magic power in your body to trigger spells.
At the beginning, when he watched Karen fight with that holy knight, he really realized the gap between a third-order apprentice and a formal wizard, and from beginning to end, the spells she used were instantaneous.
That kind of powerful spell, with all his magic power, can't release a single one.
And the sword he had just used was also using a technique he had obtained from the Holy Knight.
For nearly two months, he had been using the Holy Knight's way every day to hone his physique and hone his swordsmanship. The melee strength that had been stagnant for a long time has finally improved dramatically again.
The speed of the sword alone is a few points faster than before. The moment the other party was attracted by the ice arrow, his sword had already cut the opponent's throat.
Such a combination, even if it was Barrow, who had almost no power to fight back at the beginning, he might not be able to dodge.
His gaze moved to the pool of dark red blood on the ground, and he confirmed his judgment even more, "It doesn't feel like a living person." ”
Just now, when his sword cut the throat of the other party, the feeling transmitted from the sword did not look like it was slashed on the flesh and blood. So he temporarily added a little strength and cut the opponent's neck bones together. lest there be any extraneous branches.
"Could it be a puppet made from a living person?"
He guessed in his heart, and there was some secret shock in his heart, a puppet equivalent to the strength of a great knight was by no means something that ordinary forces could have.
"Could it be a group of people who are spying on Nina?"
He hesitated for a moment, then walked out the door and silently approached the house where the two Novi were staying.
"Charles, who the hell are you?" Novi's angry voice came from inside, "You have always hidden your true strength, and even Master Karen has not seen it, and you are by no means an ordinary apprentice. Which force are you from? ”
When Chen Yi heard the name Charles, he felt a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
Then, I heard a familiar voice, "It's better that you don't want to know this, as long as you hand over the things, I will let you go." ”
"It's him!" Chen Yi recognized this voice, it was the skinny third-order apprentice who survived the battle of Rose City. I was very surprised in my heart, listening to the meaning of Novie's words, it was this thin junior apprentice who forced the two of them to this point.
"Do you think I'm stupid enough to believe you? I know the two great knights beside you, and they've been missing for months. Not only them, but also several other great knights also disappeared at the same time. ”
Novi sneered, "It turned out that it was the forces behind you who captured them, and I don't know how to control them." ”
When Chen Yi heard this, his head suddenly exploded, and he finally remembered where he had heard the name Charles.
He and John and two other apprentices went on an expedition to the estate of the inventor of the "Sky Elixir", Wizard Baldwin. When it turns out that it was a conspiracy, John tells him that the map was originally owned by a man named Charles.
"It turns out that he is Charles." He never imagined that the skinny apprentice would be the one John had mentioned.
Because when he set off with Karen, time was relatively tight, and he didn't even ask the names of the other apprentices.
He couldn't help but feel a suddenness in his heart when he thought of the terrible presence he sensed when he left Baldwin's manor. Judging from various clues, this Charles must have some connection with the existence in the manor.
The so-called map of Baldwin Manor should be a game for the Great Knights, and the purpose is to use the "Sky Elixir" to attract the Great Knights to throw themselves into the net.
If he hadn't been cautious enough, he might have ended up like that puppet right now.
Inside, Charles's voice continued, "The lord behind me demolished all your Sauron's castles in order to find something like that, and he didn't find it. Therefore, send me to hunt you down. ”
"You can't imagine what that adult is. If you are willing to hand it over, your Excellency will be happy, and you may be able to give you great strength. ”
He was answered with a loud bang.
When Chen Yi heard the movement, he knew that they had moved. But with a wall, he couldn't tell what was going on.
"You can't escape."
With a bang, a section of the wall next to him was pierced, and Novi fell out, her body was blurred with flesh and blood, and she looked extremely miserable, and inside, her companion with a broken arm also fell to the ground, and no one knew it.
Winners and losers at a glance.
Although Novi was seriously injured, she did not lose consciousness, and she was the first to see Chen Yi standing outside, her eyes suddenly widened, and then she saw a flower in front of her eyes, her body was light, and she was already picked up by the man and ran out.
"Who? Stop me. Behind him, Charles' angry voice rang out.
The whirring wind sounded in her ears, and she listened to Charles's voice getting smaller and smaller, and her heart was relieved and she fainted.
I don't know how long later, she woke up, and when she opened her eyes, she found herself in a small wood, and a middle-aged man sat opposite, she struggled to sit up, and asked in a hoarse voice, "You saved me?" ”
The man smiled and said, "Don't thank me, I just want to know what that man named Charles wants." ”
Hearing this undisguised sentence, her heart couldn't help but sink.
