Chapter 50: The Knight Lord

Lukka looked at the steep staircase and sighed, if only the source of mana wasn't on the top floor, but in some unknown corner of the floor below. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 With this in mind, he opened the map and walked over to the precise location on the map that marked the source of the mana.

Nothing.

There was a flat and smooth floor around the location for five meters, and there was not even furniture to hide things.

"It looks like it's still going up. Lukka sighed and slowly climbed the stairs.

Unsurprisingly, the second floor is still blocked by stone gates surrounded by inscriptions.

"This pattern is different from the one just now. "Having practiced a lot of magic in the Spirit Sky and drawing countless circles, Lukka is sensitive to the nuances of these patterns.

"It's different. The one just now is the inscription of the sixth-level knight, and this one is the fifth-level. Daniel replied.

"How many levels did those two guards have?" Lukka asked.

"The two of them are level seven. Danny replied, "Their supreme command, the so-called 'lord', should be of the first rank. ā€

"Level 1? That should be the highest rank of the Sea Knight?" Lukka asked.

Right away, he gets an affirmative reply from Daniel, which doesn't sound like a good deal to deal with.

Daniel effortlessly opened the door again. Lukka took a few steps forward before he realized another question.

"Hey, Daniel, what rank of knight are you?" Lukka asked.

Daniel paused and thought for a moment before replying, "At that time, there was no such division of knightly ranks. ā€

"Oh, then can you open ......" Before Lukka could finish the "first-level door" behind him, Danny continued:

"If you go by the current level, I'm probably level zero. ā€

"Level Zero? What is that? Is there no level?" Lukka was a little confused.

"At least one level higher than their lord. Their lord is considered level 1, then I can only be level zero. "Daniel doesn't look like bragging.

"Then even if we meet their lord, we are not afraid of going head-to-head?" Luca said excitedly.

"This ...... This is land. Daniel shook his head and replied dejectedly, "I am the first generation of sea knights, unlike them, they can play as long as the sea breeze blows, I can only exert my power at sea......"

Lukka didn't know what to say, and after a few seconds, he turned around: "Climb the stairs!"

The second layer disappointed Luca again, followed by the third, and the fourth......

Finally reaching the staircase that led to the seventh floor, Lukka felt every muscle in his leg protest. But he didn't stop, and even so, there was one word clearly in Daniel's eyes: weak and windy.

When that's over, I'm going to run at least five kilometers a day. Lukka thought as he watched Daniel open the door.

The last stone door opened, and from here, there were only twenty-four steps left from the top floor.

Lukka tried to keep his voice as low as he could, but he wasn't used to wearing armor, and every step he took would make a sound of metal colliding.

"It's so loud, I guess I haven't noticed it for a long time. Lukka muttered quietly as he mentally reviewed the "Miniature Fireball" spell, the only offensive magic he could use right now.

Ascending the final staircase, on both sides of the lobby on the top floor, huge floor-to-ceiling windows let in a lot of sunlight.

Stepping out of the dimly lit passage below, it took Lukka a full ten seconds to adjust to the change in light.

Almost like the floors below, there are no extra furnishings on this floor. The only difference is that in the middle of the hall, there is a large desk.

The person sitting behind the table was wearing a sea knight's armor that was much more ornate than the one Luca had "borrowed", and the whole person shone blue and silver. In the middle of the table in front of him, where the point of light on the magic map was, was a small walnut box, similar to a music box from a distance.

The knight in front of the meeting was clearly staring at him, and Lukka decided to try to negotiate (flickering) first.

But before he could speak, the other party made a move first.

The knight reached out and took off his helmet and placed it on the table. He looked to be in his early forties, with short, neatly trimmed brown hair and a meticulously groomed beard of the same color.

"I didn't expect it to be just two pieces of waste that couldn't even climb the stairs. The Knight Lord shook his head, as if disappointed, "I'm waiting for you to put on all my armor." ā€

"You know we're coming?" Lukka was a little surprised by his unhurried approach.

The Knight Lord sneered, "You think no one knows about your activities? I sent someone to keep an eye on you in the harbor two weeks ago. ā€

"What are you talking about?" Lukka was even more surprised, two weeks ago, he was still looking for trouble with Black Sail on the sea. Could it be that this guy has recognized the wrong person? If it's not himself, then who is he waiting for?

"Don't talk nonsense!" Daniel couldn't hold it anymore, and raised his scepter and rushed straight towards his junior.

Lukka had no choice but to cooperate with him, reciting the incantation of the miniature fireball.

Suddenly, there was a harsh sound of metal grinding, and an iron cage fell from the sky, five meters long on the side, and enveloped Lukka and Daniel directly in the middle.

Daniel couldn't hold his legs, and the whole ghost "clanged" against the iron railing, and Luka's fireball was bounced off by the shield raised by the knight lord.

"What is this?'s new gadget in the lab?" said the Knight Lord, looking at the wall that had been blackened by the fireball.

Daniel's angry roar echoed through the empty hall: "What kind of knight are you? With such despicable means, you don't even dare to fight head-to-head, and you are also worthy of commanding the knights of the sea?!"

"Well...... the other party dusted off the dust that fell on the armor when the iron cage was lowered, and said, "Do you know how the first generation of Sea Knights perished?"

"Of course I do!" Daniel roared.

The knight lord ignored his answer and said to himself: "I have studied a lot of historical clues, and those ancient knights will kill themselves because they are too old-fashioned. ā€

"When dealing with opponents who deserve my respect, of course I will follow the way of knighthood and have a real fight with dignity. But when dealing with guys like you, I'm naturally going to do the same way you do. ā€

With that, he reached out and took a flintlock pistol from a drawer and raised it at Lukka and Daniel.

"What kind of knight I am, you ask? I can tell you that I am the kind of knight who will keep the Knights of the Sea from being obsolete by the times, let it grow and grow, and always stand at the forefront of this world in this ever-changing world. ā€

"What do you say? ā€

With that, he pulled the trigger.
