Chapter 87: Shadow Empire (1)

The Knights of Light, formerly known as the Ark Guardians, made great contributions to humanity. In IC22, the Escort changed its name, taking the meaning of "Guardian Knight of Human Light", and officially changed its name. Prior to the Wall War, the Knights of Light were the most powerful and violent organization under the Global Human Alliance. During the war, the Knights suffered heavy losses, and two third-order abilities, Mo Siwu was seriously injured and transferred to civilian positions, and Li Dajiang died and disappeared. In the post-war period, the origin gradually became known, and the return came from behind, coupled with the active performance of the Futu Legion and the Kunlun Organ affiliated to the Huaxia Alliance, the Holy Light Knights gradually withdrew from the front-line combat power. At the end of IC64, the Knights of Light merged with the Les Misérables Institution under the six-member Inquisitor, collectively known as the Ark Legion, and the Knights were officially disbanded.

- "The Biography of Su Zhi", IC89, Fei Jie. stan

IC64 January 8, late at night, by the Nameless Lake of Eden.

Fanor stood in front of the villa, far and near, lying the corpses of a dozen young female warriors, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she had seen the best scene before she died.

"Independent power supply, wide area underfloor heating." The evening breeze came slowly, blowing the rustle of leaves, like a lover whispering, smiling and smiling. The air was mixed with the aroma of moist earth, not at all like deep winter, as if it had completed the alternation of spring and winter, and entered the season of recovery of all things in advance, "Is Su Zhi hiding here?" ”

"Yes, yes." Maddie beside him trembled, and her speech trembled a little. In his opinion, the response of those female warriors was orderly and there was no fault, but no matter how well they were hidden, in just an instant, they were all dead, there were no wounds on their bodies, there was no blood after death, Maddie did not see any signs of action from Fanor, this man, is it really a second-order ability? Maddie was even more respectful to him, fearing that if he was slightly provoked, he would die violently at any time.

"Go knock on the door, be polite." Fanol stretched out his hand and pointed to the door, which was closed, and through the window, he could see the glow of the fireplace, like an entrance to hell.

Maddie didn't dare to show the slightest hesitation, trotted up, and stepped up the steps.

Jingle bell, crisp bell remembered, Maddie looked up and saw the two strings of paper cranes hanging on the window lattice, and suddenly remembered Chen Duze, his feet stiffened, and before his brain reacted, his body had already jumped out sideways and flew to pounce.

Nothing happened, Chen Duze was not here at all, it was just two strings of ordinary paper cranes, if you want to say anything special, it was made by Lin Ke himself, and each one was printed with her lip print.

Fanol chuckled, walked up to himself, overtook the quail lying on the ground, and knocked on the door. "Knock knock", like an old friend.

It was very late, Su Zhi was still looking at the documents in the light of the fireplace, his mind was a little drifting, he was always like this recently, he couldn't concentrate, a little touch could make him think of the things of his youth, the most of which was the expedition to discover Shangri-La.

The knock on the door pulled him back from his thoughts, and he frowned and glanced at the clock, which was past 10 p.m. At this point, Lin Ke's personal guards would not disturb his work, and even if he came in, he would not knock on the door like this.

Still is...... Lost? Su Zhi smiled bitterly, and casually threw the documents in his hand into the fireplace, and in the flames, these ancient paper documents quickly burned and turned into ashes.

"Come in, the door is unlocked." Su answered the door, pressed his finger on the blower button, and a strong upward wind blew from under the fireplace, crushing the ashes, mixing into the cinders and never recovering.

When Fanol entered, he saw an old man nestled in the corner of the couch, closest to the fireplace.

The room temperature was very high, which made him a little uncomfortable, but the old man still seemed to be cold, and tightened the blanket in front of him.

"Professor Su." Fanor stood still in the hallway, bowing his chin and bowing, completely ignoring the problem of Maddie being blocked by him at the door.

"I remember your name was Fanor, Arthur. Fanor, who quit the Order after the war, formed a powerhouse called Les Misérables under the hands of those 6 fools. Su Zhi took off his reading glasses, squinted his eyes for a long time, and finally determined the identity of the person who came, "Make a cup of tea, I want green tea." Su Zhi raised his hand and pointed to a corner of the living room, where there were teacups and tea jars, only one cup, obviously no one for the guests.

Fanol went over to make tea, and when he left, he brought the door and shut Maddie out.

Su Zhi smiled at him: "Yes, it's very considerate, I know that my old man doesn't like to look at those villains." ”

"It should." Because there was no ready-made boiling water, Fanor lifted the kettle and looked at Su Zhi, who showed with his eyes that it was the direction of the kitchen.

"Could it be true that it's the same as the legend, Les Miserables has been open for so many years, and you are the only one who can do it?" The old man is very old, and his curiosity is still very strong.

"No, there are 4 more, one of them is rushing over, and his specialty is searching." After boiling the water, Fanor made tea slowly, "The other three have gone to General Lin, I'm worried that she will be a little excited." ”

"Young people, always impulsive. You said that you weren't there, if Xiao Ke hurt someone, wouldn't it hurt the peace. Su Zhi patted the armrest of the sofa and signaled that the tea should be made faster.

Fanor had already walked out, holding a cup of hot tea, and his palms did not tremble at all: "Two third-order, one second-order with two types of attack and defense, probably won't be injured by General Lin, don't worry." Gently, he handed the teacup to Su Zhi, who was there, not noticing how hot the cup of tea was.

……

Lin Ke flew to the hospital like an electric shot, and Maddie lived in the VIP ward on the 29th floor, where the windows were now closed and thick curtains were drawn. Lin Ke was so anxious that his ability activated, and colored light shot out from all around his body, dotting on those explosion-proof glasses.

Rumble! The glass on the south side of the entire side shattered, hitting the curtains, and Lin Ke rushed in. It was empty, the hospital bed was scattered, bandages, hanging bottles, and hospital gowns were scattered all over the place, but Maddie wasn't here.

Piercing sirens sounded in the corridors, and the security guards and sturdy doctors on this floor slammed open the door and rushed in, only to see the angry Lieutenant General Lin Ke.

"What about the patient?"

"Colonel, he was discharged from the hospital in the evening, and the dean persuaded him, but he couldn't stop ......," replied the quick-talking young doctor.

"Why didn't anyone tell me!"

"We thought ......" Before the words were finished, Lin Ke had already turned into a streamer of light through the curtain and flew into the vast night again, this time, her target was Su Zhi's villa.

Eden is very large, but it is not big enough for a speed-type third-order ability, Lin Ke flew with all his strength, broke through the sound barrier, and in a short moment, he had already rushed out of the city and entered the sky above the anti-sand forest.

Airplanes! The air was humming, and a fireball flew from the front, and the speed was also extremely fast, Lin Ke didn't have time to dodge, the two collided, boom! Lin Ke spat out a mouthful of blood, which had already fallen from the air.

"Les Miserables! You're the ghostface. Suspended in the air, Lin Ke wiped the blood from his mouth, and stared viciously at the burly man in the air wearing a cloak and a ghostly face, like a she-wolf guarding her cubs.

Click! A gap cracked at the top of the ghost face, the gap expanded, and the mask split into two halves and fell from the air, revealing a face covered with old age spots, and it looked almost no younger than Su Zhi.

"Are you...... Li Dajiang! "I had guessed that the role of the mask was to hide my identity, Lin Ke had thought of all kinds of possibilities, but how could it be him? Didn't he fall off a cliff and disappear in the Battle of the Peak? Even the wheel of fortune made a prophecy, but he couldn't find his body. Suddenly, Lin Ke was shocked, "Wheel of Fortune! You're the one who can escape the prophecy! ”

"Not me." Li Dajiang finally spoke, his voice was very old, but full of neutrality, "But that person is indeed my comrade." ”

"Since you're not dead, have you betrayed the old man!" Lin Ke was furious, Li Dajiang was the idol of the Su Mansion general, and the young people were not familiar with him, but none of them did not grow up listening to his stories.

He is Mo Gang's chosen successor, Su Zhi's most trustworthy person except for the Mo family, his disappearance and Mo Siwu's serious injury have given Su Zhi the heaviest blow, and this blow is even more than the death of Mo Ju and Su Dingchen later.

"Don't ask him, personal loyalty and family loyalty, this old man has been struggling, so he will definitely not be able to answer your question." Beneath the woods, another ghostface came out, he was not wearing a cloak, but wearing an exaggerated puff sleeve, listening to the voice, it was undoubtedly a man.

"This is a matter between Su Zhi believers, and I suggest that you better not interject." The third ghost face is the same as Li Dajiang's dress, and his voice has the magnetism of a middle-aged man, just by looking at his standing posture, he knows that he is a man with a good upbringing.

The three of them were in the shape of a zigzag, in the sky and on the ground, blocking Lin Ke's way, and Lin Ke had no way out.

"Li Dajiang, if you are still a believer of Su Zhi, get out of the way, I will go to find the old man!" Lin Ke said sharply.

"You can't go." After being silent for a long time, Li Dajiang finally made a choice, he stretched out a hand, and the lava flowed out of the cuff, condensing into a sword, "I can't attack the professor, so I chose you, I am responsible for it, and I can't turn my back on my comrades anymore." ”

"Hypocrite!" Lin Ke roared, his hands wrapped around his chest, "Laser!" ”

A beam of light as thick as a pillar gushed out from between her hands, instantly hitting Li Dajiang, Li Dajiang slashed with a horizontal sword, the dark red lava was like a tide, cutting the laser layer by layer, the beam was dispersed, he smashed through the lava at the same time, and an elbow slammed into Lin Ke's lower abdomen.

Burst! Lin Ke flew out upside down, spurting out not blood, but a steaming dark red crystal, that elbow seeped into the bloodline with ultra-high heat, if it weren't for the strong body of the third-order ability, just this blow would have killed Lin Ke.

"Flash!" Enduring the severe pain all over his body, Lin Ke did not wait to stand firm, his body had already emitted ten thousand rays of light like a huge luminous body, these lights did not have high heat and tangible impact, but the brightness of a moment dispersed the entire dark night, like a small artificial sun.

First of all, Li Dajiang hurriedly closed his eyes, but after all, he reacted only after the ability was issued, and when he closed it, his eyes were already red and swollen, and there were bursts of hot pain.

Interfering with the opponent, Lin Ke was about to fly away around him, but a thorn vine flew up from below, wrapped around her leg at once, and the barbs were long, piercing from the flesh and pulling out a bloody and blurred scar.

"Your opponents are not one, but three!" The ghost face of the magnetic voice dragged the tail of the tree vine with one hand, and with a hard pull, Lin Ke was forcibly dragged down and smashed into the woods.

"Vladino. El. Josiah! Lin Ke was shocked, if Greenwich's queen guards were also involved, then the inside story of this matter would be too terrible.

"Vladino? Sorry, I'm not the gardener. The grimace covered his forehead, a deeply hurt look, and his other free hand was wide open, pointing in the direction of Lin Ke.

Whoa! More than a dozen big trees around them suddenly activated, turning into tree people more than ten meters high, with no shortage of eyes, ears, mouths and noses, they shouted silently, raised the thick branches representing their arms, and slapped them towards Lin Ke together.

The third masquerade jumped out and pointed at the center of the collision, boom! Flames soar into the sky.
