Section C Chapter 120: Abyss Knight (Beverly)
...... Just when Beverly and the Black Mist Blood Cultists were a little overwhelmed, there was a sudden noise, and a lot of gray smoke re-emerged from the window. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
And the figure formed by the smoke this time made Beverly's heart tremble: it was the most tricky character of the Dark Church Longkar.
...... Black Knight.
No, it's not!
To be exact...... It's the Knight of the Abyss.
The Abyssal Knight held a heavy shield and a heavy sword in his hands, and his eyes under the helmet glowed faintly red.
The evil god Longkar, who bears the name of the Abyss, has bestowed great power on his followers.
The Black Knight, on the other hand, is his quite elite warrior. Among these elite warriors, there is also the most outstanding group.
...... They are known as the Knights of the Abyss, and as the name suggests, they are people who have walked the Abyss.
It was precisely because of the pollution of the abyss that their eyes were glowing with a dim red light, and even the light could pass through the helmet when they moved, forming an ethereal silk thread that floated outside.
Because of this, the concealment of these Abyss Knights is fatally weak. Even if they hide in the shadows, people can see their red eyes from far away. Rather, it is in their favorite darkness that they have the least hidden advantage.
The Abyssal Knight has a major weakness that must be kept in mind. That is the fear of bright light and natural daylight. Although they can normally use pitch-black smoke to protect themselves from the light, as they are traumatized, the smoke will become thinner and thinner, and eventually they will lose their ability to protect.
In fact, many of the monsters in the Black Mist Demon Realm are related to the abyss. The World Tree and the Abyss are originally two planes, so they are not affiliations. However, this is interesting: the Black Mist Realm's exploitation of the Abyss is only part of the potential. At the same time, many of the forces in the Abyss seem to be in a chaotic and disorderly state, so the meaning of the Abyss is different for different organizations.
The point now is that the smoke coming from the window is clearly the same way the hooded man appears. And how did the Black Tower organization get involved with the Black Church Longkar?
...... I don't know, but if they do cooperate, it's not necessarily a bad thing. However, it is hard to imagine the heart-to-heart cooperation between two organizations whose codes of conduct and ideals are so far apart.
No, not to mention the heart-to-heart - even ordinary cooperation is almost impossible.
The people of the Black Tower are so strange that no one even knows their purpose. But because humans and animals are harmless and low-key, no one thinks they are a threat. Therefore, there is no sense of existence and no attention.
The Black Church of Longkar is notorious almost to the point where everyone speaks of them with hatred and disgust. The organization is completely dismissive of hiding its motives, and often acts openly and positively – and of course, resorts and tricks.
Behind many dirty deeds, there is a leg of Loncar.
"Longkar ......" It seemed that the Black Mist Blood Sect disciple was angry: "What kind of trick?!Just the caretaker of the Black Tower, and now Longkar's lackey?"
"......" The Abyss Knight of Longkar also didn't say anything, just took a threatening step forward before whispering in an extremely hoarse and gloomy tone, "...... The man, hand it over. ”
"What does he have to do with you?" disagreed the Black Mist Blood Cultist.
“...... I won't repeat it again. Hand over the man. He has some grievances with our church that need to be sorted out, and this is not for outsiders to interfere with. The Abyss Knight briefly explained his request, and at the same time added another line of contempt: "It only takes three seconds to crush a waste like you, if you don't want to die, let me decide quickly." ”
In the noisy environment, no one could hear what was going on in the already well-soundproofed room, and Beverly was uneasy.
The reason for this uneasiness comes from the fact that she doesn't know if she has made a mistake.
Could it be that the merchant was some kind of key person? Beverly was a little surprised: if that was the case, I would lose too much. It's all well and good to ask for information, but if he happens to be an important person, I lose a lot of opportunities to ask questions.
...... Even if I hadn't gotten to this point, I wouldn't have known that he was an important person.
"Miss Beverly?" Salander noticed that Beverly's hand had stopped combing her hair, and turned to look at her with concern, "You...... Are you alright?"
“...... It's okay. Beverly nodded, indicating that nothing had happened. However, in my heart, I was nervous and beat the drums.
...... Let's see how things play out for the time being.
"You think this threat will work?" The cultist didn't seem to be afraid of the Abyss Knight at all, but waved his dagger in the air, and exclaimed angrily, "What a coincidence...... I also have something to ask him. Do you think I'm going to stop there? What the hell do you want him to do?"
"I said it, I don't bother to repeat it a second time. The red light in the Abyss Knight's eyes has become more and more bloody: "Although it is impossible to spare your life, if you hand it over now, at least you can die a happy death." ”
The red light drifted out as he straightened slightly, and a red mark drifted out.
He waited a little for three seconds, and before the other could speak, the Abyssal Knight was completely tired of the boring conversation.
"Illiterate fellow......" After simply saying these few emotionless words, the Abyssal Knight swung his shield and rushed forward, crashing directly into the cultist at an extremely rapid speed.
The speed at which the face changes is like the air currents that a griffin bursts out when it takes off.
Suddenly she felt that she had made a good analogy, and Beverly was a little intoxicated: because she remembered the griffin with whom she had once been very good. This kind of beast has to eat dozens of catties of meat every day, and ordinary people can't afford to raise it at all.
In general, taking it hunting is a good choice for food, affection, and combat effectiveness. And the griffin is a creature that likes to fly, so there's nothing wrong with flying with it. Dwarves, humans, and orcs are particularly fond of using griffons as flying mounts and powerful comrades.
The griffin is as powerful as it looks, with the strong body of a lion and the head, hard beak and strong wings of an eagle. A strong griffin that can even kill several wyverns on its own. The Griffin Knight is a long-established class of troops that is still active on the battlefield today.
In some empires, griffins are used as flying tools to open flying spots. For a fee, you can ride it to the designated flight point. Griffin knights are generally archers, after all, griffons are good enough in close combat.
Hippogriffs may be able to fight against it.
