Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Incident Thirty-Six Years Ago

"It is said that when Morteris was still a bishop, he once saved a shadow stalker, who has been with him since then, and has become his shadow, he is the person that the old thing trusts the most, I have been looking for that guy at the banquet, but I have never found him, and now I finally know where he is. ”

As soon as D'Ardarion finished speaking, the poison-coated scimitar had already slashed at the back of the paladin, and he didn't know what material the scimitar was made of, and the heavy knight's armor carefully forged by the temple was as fragile as a piece of paper in front of it, and it was easily cut by the poison-coated blade, and then the knife slashed at the young paladin's spine.

The latter let out a roar of pain, and the knife slashed deeply, as if it was about to cut his whole body off at the waist, but he

He also had a lot of combat experience, and at the first time, he used the strength of his whole body, tensed his muscles, and clamped the scimitar to prevent it from going any further, while he turned his head in severe pain, and did not pay attention to the shadow stalker who sneaked up on him, but looked at the old bishop who had always maintained a kind look next to him.

The knife almost cut his spine just now, but relying on the paladin's super defensive ability, he did not fall immediately, but raised the sword in his hand and aimed it at the latter's head, at this moment his eyes radiated a terrifying light, like a wounded beast, he didn't even notice that his pupils had turned a strange light gray.

"This perseverance is really admirable, ordinary people will be killed on the spot if they are poisoned by Dean's knife, even a paladin will be incapacitated immediately, you can even turn around, should you say that the power of hatred is really extraordinary?"

The paladin, who was stabbed in the back, opened his eyes angrily, "You devil, do you remember what you did back then?"

Motellis said lightly, "I'm an old man, and I can't remember many things for a long time. ”

"No, you will not forget this incident, thirty-six years ago, in that small village with less than ten families in the mountains, in order to get out of there, you tried to make an iron-backed rhinoceros go crazy, rushed into the village and slaughtered everywhere, killing all the people in the village......" The paladin was obviously at the end of his crossbow, but he still insisted on saying this, because he was afraid that once he died, no one would know about it, so he stuck his sword in the ground to support his body and did not fall.

"That thing...... I really remember. For the first time tonight, Mortelis looked surprised, "Do you have anything to do with that little village?"

"You're not the only one in that little village who survived, my brother and I escaped the night before when we were sent to my uncle's house in town, and by the time we got back to the village, everyone was gone...... Father and mother, as well as the aunt and uncle of the next door, everyone has become the funeral object of your ambition. ”

Moteris thought for a moment, "Joel and Tom, I remember you, I baptized you on the day you were born, and I went back to look for your body for a long time when I didn't see your corpse when I counted the personnel. ”

"Hehe, you're afraid that we will take revenge on you when we grow up. The black-clad assassin gritted his teeth as he helped the crumbling paladin.

Who would have thought that a killer and a paladin would be a pair of brothers, no wonder he would stop the paladin at all costs when he saw the shadow stalker named Dean before, but it was also because of his brotherly love that they both were in danger now.

The old bishop shook his head, " I've done a lot of things in my life, and there have been times when I have to sacrifice some people to achieve a greater goal, and although each of us pays lip service to our belief in the gods, I don't expect others to be as strong in their faith as I am, and willing to give up what they hold dear without hesitation, so sometimes I have to use some extreme measures, but this does not include the incident thirty-six years ago, and I have to thank you for saying that, there are many people who want to kill me over the years, and at least half of them have died under your sword。 ”

Blood flowed from the paladin's facial features named Joel, making him look particularly hideous, "You think I'm going to believe you?" No one knows your viciousness and cunning better than me, I have saved your life so many times over the years, but you have never really trusted me and Kaul, you deliberately provoke the relationship between us, let us contain each other, in your eyes we are just your two knives, do you think I don't know, even if I don't make a move, those people have no chance to hurt you, so in order not to make you suspicious of me, I can only be forced to kill them. ”

"You see, each of us is actually the same, and in order to achieve our goals, we can always find reasons to convince ourselves to ignore the suffering of others. Motellis said lightly, "But you have a lot of perseverance to get to this point in order to seek revenge on me, an eighth-order paladin in his early forties, there are few people in the knights who can do it, I heard that the head of the second knight order attaches great importance to you, and even intends to train you to take over his class, why bother, isn't it good to live like this?"

"Live well...... What are you kidding?!" The paladin named Joel grinned, not knowing what poison was on that scimitar, and his skin was now starting to fall down when he spoke, making him look even more terrifying," My life was ruined by you when I was six years old, if it weren't for the hatred I would have died a long time ago, my whole life has been waiting for a day, for this I have been planning for thirty years, I have been living carefully in all these years by your side, I have waited so long to meet today's opportunity, how could I give up!!"

The paladin used all his strength to pull out the saber stuck in the ground and finish the final blow.

It's just ...... It was only one last point, he had quietly narrowed the distance between him and the old bishop under the cover of the fight with the black-clad assassin, and if he was given a little more time, he and his brother would be able to complete the final combo together, the one they had practiced thousands of times.

Then the justice they have been looking for for so long will come.

However, this action, which would normally be easy for him, was now more difficult than ever, and the black-clothed assassin hugged him and cried bitterly, "Brother Joel, cheer up, I'll take you out of here." ”

But at this moment, the two of them were already surrounded by the guards of the Earl's Court, not to mention that there was a mysterious shadow stalker beside Moteris.

The female Assassin behind the flowers also burst into tears, looking at Rob and D'Addarion with pleading eyes.

The president of the Wizards Association shook his head, "It's hopeless, if I'm not mistaken, he should be a mixture of gray dolphin and blue thread grass, it's been so long since his muscle fibers were destroyed by the toxin, and he can survive until now by relying on one breath, uh...... Could it be that you like him?"

The female assassin nodded, tears blurring her eyes.

"I should have guessed what power could make a woman willing to accompany a man to a mortal covenant. ”

D'Ardarion sighed, "It's not that we don't want to help you, it's just that the knight is hopeless, but his brother still has a chance to live, so let's just treat Moteris to a cup of tea, and I will remove the petrification on you before we do it, and it's up to your luck to see if you can seize the opportunity to escape with your companions." ”
