Chapter 13: The Black Knight

It was a tattered hat, a pair of stinking boots, a dirty cloak. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Magellan stood in front of this pile of rags, looking at the faces of the two teenagers who were taller than him on the left and right, and his heart was full of surprise and doubt, and he almost froze.

"You must be the one in the prophecy!"

"Yes, that's the man!"

"You must be able to divide these inheritances in two parts fairly!"

"Two equal copies!"

"Please, stranger, we will give you a reward worthy of this hard work!"

"It will be!" said the prince on the left viciously to the prince on the right, "Come out!"

"You come out!"

"......" Magellan pulled his arms out of the arms of the two princes and hugged them to his chest in a thoughtful look.

"I have a way of dividing the inheritance into two equal parts, but you must first tell me what the remuneration is, and I will only help you if I am satisfied. ”

"Great!"

"But these three things are magical magical items, do you really know how to divide them?"

"That hat can make the person carrying it shrink ......"

"I know. Magellan interrupted the prince's introduction with a slight rudeness, "The boots make the person wearing it run fast, and the cloak makes the person wearing it invisible." ”

"You know ......"

The two princes froze, and to be honest, their faces were very handsome, and that childishness was still mixed in with a strange charm, even if the expressions were dull.

Magellan endured the absurdity, sneaked his right hand into his arms, touched the "sun", and lit the lamp.

In this instant, the two princes disappeared along with the three treasures.

Magellan shook his head violently, trying to shake his head out of the absurd feeling that had been lingering just now. He looked around, and the glade was still there, but the prince and the inheritance were missing.

He remembered what had just happened, it was like a dream, but the strange thing was that the "sun" had been lit and he could not see anything that created the illusion, which was really incredible, unless it was all reality, and the prince and the treasure left or became invisible the moment he lit the lamp.

But Magellan, thinking about it, preferred to believe that the two burly princes were hallucinators.

He was about to turn away, but he saw a cliff and Magellan stopped.

It is an upright cliff, and when you look up from below, you can see the gorgeous orange and yellow flowers on the cliff face.

As Magellan stood beneath the stone wall and tapped his fingers on the rocks, he remembered the well-known fairy tale.

There are many different versions of these stories, one of which mentions that the kingdom of the goblins was built in the belly of a mountain, and the gate was on a cliff.

This was the first time Magellan had seen rocks outcropping from the ground in the forest, and he thought about it and walked forward along the foot of the cliff.

It is surrounded by the usual scenery of the forest, with competing flowers, towering cedar trees, and meadows covered with a thick layer of leaves.

After walking a short time, he saw a lake.

After a long absence, Magellan saw the sky.

The tall cedar trees on the edge of the lake leave a large shadow, and only a small spot in the center of the lake can be seen where the reflection of the sky can be seen, where the stars are dotted like a few shining diamonds at the bottom of the lake.

The lake was shallow, and the grass on the shore was white sand, and Magellan sat on the ground, wondering for the first time how long it had been since he had seen the sun.

There is not a single wind on the surface of the lake, and it looks like a mirror.

Magellan touched the lamp and took it out and held it high.

The darkness in the forest has not dissipated, and the rays of the "sun" can only illuminate a small area.

He shook his head and extinguished the oil lamp.

Nothing happened.

The two princes did not reappear, and there was no gate on the cliff face.

Magellan stood up to leave, only to find a knight in black armor on the lake.

It was as if the surface of the lake had turned into a smooth floor, and the knight stood on it, carrying an ornately decorated bayonet sword.

Magellan put his hand into his arms and wanted to take out the "sun". At this moment, the knight moved, and like an arrow from the string, he rushed to Magellan in one step, and stabbed him in the chest with a sword.

The sword stabbed into the air, and Magellan dodged the attack in a very embarrassed position, and he got up from the ground with his hands and feet, only to find the knight already standing in front of him.

Oddly enough, the knight did not attack again.

From a closer distance, the knight's jet-black armor is very pompous, with many hollows and reliefs, although there is only one color, it gives people a very gorgeous and gorgeous feeling. The knight stood still, neither breathing nor tense, like a ghost, or a statue.

Magellan thought for a moment, did not touch the lamp in his arms again, and just faced the knight, circled in a semicircle, and walked backwards towards the place from which he came.

The knight did not seem to have any intention of following, although he followed Magellan in a semicircle, always facing him.

Magellan stepped back, and then backed, until the trunk of a large tree blocked the knight. He turned, and then saw the knight, standing in front of him, face to face with him.

The black knight's visor is a gorgeous butterfly mask, and Magellan is complaining in his heart about this ghost-like situation while crying and laughing at the disobedience of this mask.

He thought for a moment and pulled out the long sword Glory Jade behind him.

The knight, who had been standing quietly, moved, raised his sword and performed a standard knightly salute.

Magellan was stunned for a moment, and then saw the knight stab with a sword.

The sword was incredibly fast, and as soon as Magellan removed the sword from his back, he didn't have time to react when he saw that the sword had stabbed him in the chest.

It doesn't hurt.

Magellan was covered in a cold sweat and looked at the bayonet sword that was supposed to be stabbed in his chest and retracted it.

He had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the knight once again raise his bayonet sword in front of his eyes.

Then another sword stabbed at him, and Magellan lifted his sword and swept it aside, and as soon as he wanted to breathe, the knight stabbed again.

For a while, the attack was like a storm, and although it was only the same place with the bayonet, Magellan felt that he was overstretched.

He felt that it was not a way to go on like this, so he was busy blocking with his right hand, and reached into his arms with his left hand to ignite the "sun". At that moment, the knight burst out with incredible speed, and a sword broke through Magellan's defenses, piercing his left hand in his arms.

The back of Magellan's hand was cold, he subconsciously withdrew his hand, and glanced at the rest of his eyes, only to find that his left hand was not injured.

This made him wonder even more, what did this strange knight want to do?
