CHAPTER IX
With the cooperation of everyone, Kaz finally killed the black-armored knight, which also made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, the prince of Taida spoke amazingly, saying that the black-armored knight was dead but not stiff, and the two bodies that were cut off by the sword qi were recovering quickly.
The soldier commander made a quick decision, clutching the steel knife and cutting off the head of the black-armored knight and holding it in his hand.
At this time, the mask covering the black-armored knight's face fell to the ground, but what was revealed was a miserable white skeletal face.
The skull's eyes glowed red, and the weathered teeth were striking each other with a banging sound.
Edmund and the others were shocked in their hearts, and their faces were also stunned, they all thought that the black armor knight was a master with good strength, but they didn't expect that his true face turned out to be a dead thing after fighting for a long time.
Kaz reacted the fastest, swept away the shock in his heart and shouted at the soldier commander, "Give me your head quickly!"
The soldier captain struck a stir and quickly threw the skull he was holding in his hand into Kaz's hand.
Kaz took the skull and slapped the skull in his hand with brute force. He slapped the ashes in his hand clean, thinking that this thing was gone, and it was time for him to make another disturbance.
Edmund looked at the ashes raised in the wind but was still not at ease, and sure enough, when he looked at the remains of the black-armored knight scattered on the ground, his face instantly pale: "This... This thing... Still... It's alive!"
Teddar quickly pulled Edmund back a few steps, the captain trembling in his hand gripping the steel sword, and Kaz had pulled his greatsword from the ground, trying to completely crush the pile into powder.
But Kaz was a step too late, and he didn't have time to make a move, and the headless black-armored knight was already standing upright.
Strange things happened, the Headless Horseman was like a stake, without any movement or attack.
Then, a sound of horses' hooves approached, and the black-armored knight's horse came by itself and stopped at his master's side.
Kaz didn't dare to make a rash move, but only protected Edmund and the others behind him, while the headless black-armored knight mounted his horse and held the reins stiffly with both hands.
After the black-armored knight got on the horse, he did not drive the war horse to move, but the war horse took the initiative to carry him away.
Everyone looked at each other, and their expressions were uncertain.
Kaz, who was confused, quickly shook his spirits and said, "Your Highness, Lord Wang, we will discuss this matter when we go back, and we must leave here now." ”
The captain of the soldiers hurriedly chimed in, "I agree with General Kaz, we must leave quickly and report this strange matter to the king of the town." ”
As soon as the soldier's words fell, everyone heard the sound of people and horses surging around them.
Edmund clapped his hand at Kaz and asked, "Do you have any other backups?"
Kaz couldn't figure it out in his heart, and replied with a complicated expression: "The soldiers brought by the minister have all been killed, and there is no other backup." ”
Before they could make a judgment, dozens of black-armored knights on their horses and red eyes swung their swords at them.
Kaz and the Captain were forced to fight, and although they had learned of the weakness of the Black Knights and beheaded several of their enemies in succession, the terrible thing was that not only did the number of enemies suddenly increase, but also the strength of the previous enemy was no different.
While fighting and looking for a way out, they were forced to the bank of the river at this moment.
This river is the Diluo River, which runs through the Yurasno Empire, and the downstream water is not too turbulent.
There are a few small wooden boats parked next to the simple ferry on the bank of the river, and since it is not early in the day, there is no one to cross the river to fish nearby.
Seeing that there was no way back behind him, Kaz frowned and shouted to Edmund, "Your Highness, get on board!"
Edmund they did not dare to doubt, and jumped into the boat one after another.
Kaz stood on the shore and first cut the rope with his sword, and then told the soldier commander to hurry up and find the pulp to row, but he mustered all his strength and waved the broad-bladed giant sword in his hand to cut out a majestic sword aura.
Kaz's sword was like a landslide, knocking down a large part of the pursuing enemy, and then he leaped at the ferry towards the small boat that had been rowed out, and he was too strong to overturn the small wooden boat.
Edmund almost fell into the river because of Kaz's recklessness, but Tedda's reaction was not slow and he was dragged back.
Teda was terrified, and almost roared at Kaz, "Are you trying to kill the king!"
Kaz didn't care, he was still observing the enemy's follow-up movements, and after hearing Tedda's reprimand, he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down to Edmund to apologize: "Such disloyalty, you will never dare to be lowly, please forgive Your Highness for being lowly because..."
Edmund grabbed the side of the boat tightly with both hands, and couldn't spare his hands to help Kaz, so he hurriedly interrupted: "Don't be like this, you hurry up, it's not that serious, now we can only go down the river first, and it's not realistic to row up." ”
Kaz stood up by the side of the boat, and after observing the surroundings, he also very much agreed with Edmund's proposal: "It seems that those things dare not wade into the water, Your Highness is right, and please use the wind to help us ride." ”
Edmund also chimed in: "That's right, cousin can be of great use at this time. ”
Seeing that Edmund had changed the subject, Tedda was not in a good position, so he had to conclude the Dharma Seal and spawn a strong wind that quickly separated them from this right and wrong land.
......
After Edmund and the others escaped, the wooden boat they were in followed the river all the way south.
————
On the other side, Bette, who was severely injured by the black-armored knight, has been rescued.
The night breeze was gentle, and a bonfire was lit on a mountain bag somewhere, and Bet lay quietly on the side, with many abrasions on her face, and a man sitting on the stone opposite him.
His white hair was as white as snow, his facial features were unclear, he wore a silver carved mask, a slightly thin silver-gray brocade coat, a pair of silver bells hanging from his waist, trousers, and boots on his feet were also silver-gray.
Bette had actually woken up a long time ago, and he knew that there was a strangely dressed person next to him, and he was also thinking about what the other party's purpose was.
At this time, a hoarse and deep voice sounded: "Wake up, just talk to this seat, maybe it can solve the doubts in your heart." ”
Seeing that he was broken, Bate simply sat up from the ground and looked at the strange man with a wary look: "You saved me." ”
"Stupid question, I don't want to answer. ”
Bette pressed her temperament and asked, "Who are you?"
"Your savior. ”
Bate stood up directly and glanced around: "Thank you for help, I have recorded your kindness." ”
Bette was about to turn away after speaking, because he really didn't want to waste his time on this weirdo.
"You don't have to go back, Meliwitz has already led his army to break through the camp, and going back at this time is undoubtedly killing yourself. ”
