A moment later, in the hall of the house that had been cleaned up.

"Admitting defeat under Xia, Chu Lie's swordsmanship is powerful, and it is far from what I can compete with at this time."

The young knight sitting in front of the wooden table still had his back straight, his right arm wrapped around a few bandages with runes, and said calmly: "It seems that I still need to go through a longer and diligent cultivation before I can inherit the glory of my ancestors." ”

The old knight's brows furrowed slightly, and there was obviously a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and just as he was about to say something, the pope on the side smiled lightly-

"Ambitious~ I hope you can realize your dreams."

The old man's palm gently rubbed the porcelain cup in his hand, and the Pope's gentle gaze swept over Dylan, who was solemnly bowed, and then fell to the side, still with his eyebrows lowered, and Chu Lie, who was silent, asked.

"Still ...... Want to think about what just happened? ”

"Hmm."

Chu Lie bowed his head slightly, the knight's sword that had been mostly corroded was placed in front of him, the right hand of the demon hunter was slightly raised, and the basic runes in his palm were connected, and then a warm and warm white light bloomed——

Spell Rune - Radiance.

Pure positive energy, this spell mastered through the system, even if the major exercise is changed, it can still be used.

The white light representing 'positive' and 'light' fell lightly on the sword, but it did not reflect in the slightest - there was neither the elemental swirl created by the neutralization of dark energy, nor the black smoke produced by the expulsion of dark aura.

Buzz Buzz......

The brilliance in his palm dissipated gently, Chu Lie's right hand was slowly lowered, his fist was lowered on his lap, and his cold voice fell unhurriedly.

“…… It is not a dark creature, at least in the most basic classification, it does not belong to a dark creature, and even the power it uses does not belong to the negative energy system, but the characteristic embodied is corrosion. ”

"Being able to avoid the detection of the teacher and His Excellency the Pope, and even under the protective protection of His Excellency the Pope, he can leave quickly without leaving the slightest trace."

The demon hunter's body straightened steadily, his eyes looked at the Pope, and he said in a deep voice.

"I apply, the highest level of security is adopted, the scope is the entire Holy City, and I am willing to participate in the ...... for the arrows"

"Haha~~ No need for ......"

A chuckle interrupted Chu Lie's voice, the demon hunter frowned slightly, the Pope smiled lightly in his vision, the slight fluorescent light on the ring on the finger of his right hand flickered, and the next moment, after a faint spatial fluctuation, a heavy book appeared directly in his palm.

He then handed it to Chu Lie.

The Pope said with a smile.

"Let's take a look at what is written after page 271...... As an S-rank paladin, the information itself should be open to you. ”

“…… If you read it right, it's not the first time this thing has appeared in the Holy City, and it hasn't left, it's like that after it's killed, there's nothing left......"

Chu Lie's brows furrowed slightly-

…… It's not the first time it's been ???

Stretching out his hand to take the book, Chu Lie didn't hesitate at all, and directly opened the number of pages that the Pope said, but as soon as he opened it, the familiar drawings were reflected in Chu Lie's field of vision.

With lines of information in different handwriting.

'In the seventh year of the Stigmata Calendar, thirteen new types of monsters appeared, all black, humanoid, no abnormal energy reflection, extremely strong stealth ability, the characteristic is corrosion, the lowest strength appears at the knight level, and the strongest is the peak level of the great knight......

……………………

'Frontal attack on the Knights Templar, annihilated, no combat experience, strong fighting instincts, aggressive towards humans, unable to distinguish between human strength and weakness...... Named the Black Devil'

……………………

'In the thirteenth year of the Extraction Calendar, after eliminating the work, seventy-three black devils were found and killed. ’

At the bottom of the page, one by one, the brushstrokes delicately depicted the monster, humanoid, pitch black, the head had no facial features, Chu Lie's pupils shrank, nailed to the center of the eyebrows of the monster illustrated-

There wasn't the scarlet that surged like blood.

Brush~

Brush~

The pages of the book were turned backwards in a row, and then dozens of pages were recorded of the Black Devil's attack on the Holy City, and each page had an illustrated book, from the paintings, to the black-and-white photographs of recent years, until the most recent one, a stereoscopic projection formed by the latest light spells, but ...... No.

Although they were all pitch black, they all had the ability to corrode, and they were all able to sneak silently, but at the center of their eyebrows, there was no blood color that made Chu Liedu's heart chill.

Syllable~

Gently closing the heavy book, Chu Lie looked at the three people who were communicating softly, and said in a deep voice.

"That's not what I've encountered."

"There is a red mark on the center of the monster's eyebrows, and I didn't have the upper hand in the instantaneous confrontation, so I don't think this monster will die directly in the next attack."

"Well, you can rest assured."

The old knight gently wiped the long sword he had just unsheathed, stroked the small gaps on the sword, and said in a deep voice: "The monster is just a variant, judging from the theory of monster mutation, it is only a subtle change, and it will not increase the strength much. ”

"I've dealt with these guys many times, and according to the characteristics you said, they are indeed dark devils."

"As a monster, the black devil's own defense is very weak, and there is no ability to distinguish between strength and weakness, so even if the attack is very strong, it will be easily killed by the knights in formation, so it is listed as a monster with a lower threat."

"Every year during this time, it will appear in the Holy City and some cities in the north of the Circle Alliance, and the explanation given by the Twelve Councils of the Circle is that the spatial turbulence has teleported the monsters in the abyss here, and during this time, there will be three groups of knights patrolling around the Holy City and killing them."

"It's been almost four thousand years, and it's all been like this, it's a secret that is not a secret, and the old residents of the Holy City basically know it."

“…………”

Looking at the determined old knight and the disapproving pope, Chu Lie's brows furrowed slightly-

The basis on which they came to their conclusions was very sufficient, so sufficient that even Chu Lie could hardly refute it-

4,000 years of practice, common sense accumulated over a long period of time.

Perhaps in their cognition, the appearance of the black devil, and the weakness, are already close to the truth.

Without a systematic prompt, Chu Lie would not have any objections to the conventions that had been summed up for four thousand years.

But......

Pursing his lips slightly, Chu Lie's pupils were shrouded in a haze.

…… The breath of the immortals, the black devil that has not appeared for 4,000 years......

It is not negative energy, but it has the characteristics of corrosion......

I'm not sure if it's going to be dangerous, so I can't disrupt the Holy See's arrangements, so I'm afraid I'll have to figure it out on my own this time......

"Haha, then it depends on what Chu Lie thinks about himself~"

At this moment, a gentle laugh sounded in Chu Lie's ears, calling his consciousness back to reality from his thoughts, and the Pope, who was dressed in a white robe, walked up to him at some point and was looking at him with a smile.

So, what are your thoughts? Do you have any objections to your arrangement? ”

"Arrangement?"

Chu Lie's expression was slightly stunned, but then he returned to his usual calm.

Answered:

“…… Everything is willing to follow the teacher's arrangement. ”

PS: Well, the first one is offered, cough cough, ask for a ticket a little, everyone's ticket for every chapter is a great encouragement to the author~
