Chapter 8: Attack on the Constructed Knights

"Holt!"

Just when everyone in the castle was trembling, they only heard Baron Brod shouting angrily.

Then an unusually tall and burly knight in heavy armor walked out of the way.

As he walked, the knight's thick and unusual armor made a constant sound of steel colliding, but it did not affect the knight's movements in the slightest.

The knight walked not far in front of Baron Broad, slammed, knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice:

"Lord Baron Broad, Knight Holt reports to you, and swears allegiance to Lord Baron, please command!"

Just as the knight knelt down and swore allegiance to Lord Baron, the people around the hall standing next to him all looked at Knight Edmund, who was standing beside Brod in bright golden armor.

It is well known that according to the knightly code of the kingdom, a noble baron like Brod was always allowed to have the allegiance of only one official knight.

And today's appearance of Knight Holt here represents the departure of Knight Edmund, the nephew of Baron Broad.

Sure enough, Edmund had some bad premonitions after seeing Holt appear in the castle, and now it has finally become a reality.

After looking at the Holt knight who was kneeling in the oath of allegiance, and then at his uncle Baron Broad, Edmund sneered, and then walked directly to the castle gate without saying a word.

"Maybe I know too much of his dirty things, or maybe I have been distrusting myself since the beginning, and coupled with the distrust of Lord Viscount Louis for him yesterday, Baron Broad finally broke out of his dissatisfaction with himself!"

On the way out of the castle, Edmund knew why, but he didn't care!

I really don't care, as a person who aspires to be a knight and go out of the world Edmund, it's really nothing.

Even if he wanted to, a young knight with a bright future like him could easily find the next nobleman to pay his alleiance within a month.

However, he was unwilling.

"Perhaps, I should try to go to the north to see ......!"

Edmund looked at the rising light in the distance, thoughtful.

It's just that Edmund never imagined that in the distant future, his fate would be closely linked to the little male pet who fled yesterday.

......

"Knight Holt, these people will be handed over to you!"

"Also, the little guy who escaped yesterday, you go and bring him back to me, whether he lives or dies!"

As if there was no anomaly to the departure of his nephew, Edmund Knight, Broad sat down at the main table and continued.

"Yes, Lord Baron, your will will be best manifested!"

As soon as Holt had finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the castle.

......

In the stone cave tunnel, after Gordon was familiar with several zero-level witchcraft, his spirit just fell into exhaustion.

For him, the little mental power he meditates on now is simply not enough, and he can't do anything more than continue to meditate.

Time was fast, and after the light in the sky dimmed, the night fell again.

At this time, Gordon, who was sitting in the stone cave, opened his eyes and woke up from meditation on time.

After quickly eating the rest of the bread and water, Gordon stood up and began to walk out of the stone gate.

For him, it was time to get rid of the ghost that slipped away yesterday, which was why he woke up.

Although time is a little short, Gordon will not leave this ghost to roam here, and this is also the end of the 'shame' he received yesterday.

Besides, Gordon didn't want a ghost to wander around him all the time, let alone when he was so weak.

"Dark Vision"

After a flash of sorcery, in the darkness where he could not see his fingers, a clear stone tunnel appeared in front of Gordon's eyes.

The 'Dark Vision', like the previous 'Wizard's Hand', belongs to the category of Level 0 sorcery.

What it does: it can see clearly in the darkness after the caster's blessing.

Like almost all Level Zero sorcery, Dark Vision is a very useful Level 0 sorcery.

At the very beginning of Gordon's predecessor wizarding career, there was a saying that 'wizards' strength is made up of one zero-level witchcraft after another. ’

Although such a statement is only circulated among the lowest wizard apprentices in the wizarding world, it is also biased.

But it is undeniable that this does have some truth, and it has been recognized by many official wizard-level mentors.

The importance of Level 0 witchcraft can be seen from here.

......

The rustling of footsteps echoed in the dark and empty stone tunnel.

In the darkness, Gordon continued to walk along the passage he had walked before.

In his memory, he now remembered that this was the most humid and gloomy environment near the entrance of the cave where he had come down before, and the place with the most negative energy.

If there is a place in this cave tunnel where ghosts are most likely to be born and hidden, then it must be there.

As Gordon's footsteps got closer and closer to the hole, the surroundings became colder and colder.

Finally, after Gordon turned a corner, a pale white ghost appeared in Gordon's field of vision.

Ghosts of this color belong to the kind that have just been born and have not yet killed people, and they are also the lowest beings in the spirit body.

And the ghost that had fought Gordon yesterday with a reddish glow had killed at least one person.

After absorbing the strong resentment, the ghost's body will emit a blood-colored light, and the more people you kill, the more resentment you absorb, the stronger the blood-colored light around the ghost's body will become, and the strength will become more powerful.

Until the ghost's strength changes to a certain level, the ghost will be promoted to a resentful spirit, and at that time, it will be equivalent to the strength of a formal wizard apprentice, and it will be more difficult to deal with.

But now, Gordon is facing only one of the lowest ghosts.

It's just that apparently the ghost hasn't noticed Gordon's arrival, and is constantly floating around the corner.

Finally, as Gordon gets closer, the ghost finally finds Gordon as an uninvited guest.

The moment the ghost turned around and saw Gordon, it was obvious that he was frightened by Gordon, and the entire phantom trembled and began to retreat continuously.

But Gordon didn't have that much time and mood to spend with the ghost, so he stepped forward, his lips moving slightly, and then reached out and pointed at the retreating ghost.

'Flashing'

A bit of extreme light appeared in the pitch-black tunnel, and the light filled all the vision.

Then I heard the ghost scream suddenly.

Then Gordon saw the ghost tremble and shake in the brightness of the light.

Finally, it suddenly exploded, turning into bits of pale white light and dissipating into the air.
