When the bard tells adventure stories, he likes to describe at length the adventurer and the evil monster fought for 300 rounds, each of them bruised, and finally both sides are exhausted, and then the adventurer thinks of justice, of his companions, of honor, of distant relatives and those who are looking forward to help, so he bursts into his potential, jumps up, and slays the monster with a sword in the midst of a tense and passionate music......

Of course, if it is a knight-themed story, then the knight must always be personable, no matter how powerful the monster is, he is also vulnerable in front of him, and the battle must be accompanied by relaxing music to prove how easy it is for the knight to win.

But these are far from the real battle.

In real battles, adventurers, especially those with low and intermediate levels, are often fierce and short. One is that they don't have the physical strength to support a long fight, and the other is that they can't meet such a formidable enemy.

Therefore, their battles are generally cautious temptations and maneuvers, and finally they suddenly erupt, and life and death are quickly separated.

Just like this time.

The preparation and planning stage of the two sides is very long, and the time to test and maneuver with each other is also very long, but the time for the real fight is extremely short. Even if it starts from the time the evil spirit tries to trap the adventurers with the illusion, it won't take more than a minute.

And if you count from the battle between the evil spirit and Yui, it will only be about twenty seconds before and after.

Here's what happened in the next ten seconds: The evil spirit confronts Yui - Yui sends out a cryo ray - the evil spirit is hit and rushes over angrily - Yui draws his sword and meets it - Yui uses two wooden swords that are slightly attractive to both negative energy and the undead to attract the attention of the evil spirit, and at the same time sends out a flash spell, which catches the evil spirit off guard - The evil spirit is frightened by the flash spell, and the power of the illusion is greatly weakened - the priest breaks free from the illusion and releases it to disperse - the evil spirit is hit again, and the illusion completely collapses - knight, The warrior and ranger emerge from the illusion - the knight and warrior take over from the slightly weary Yui after casting the spell, and the left and right limit the spirit's movements—the ranger rushes up and pours all the remaining bottles of holy water on the spirit's body.

"It's actually longer than it actually is......" When everyone summed up after the battle, the warrior couldn't help but sigh, "This is almost the most successful battle I've ever fought." ”

"Yes, especially since the enemy is still strong. The Ranger smiled and said, "It's a miracle that we can win so easily in the face of an evil spirit that can create illusions, and not even one of them is injured!"

"yes...... If only we had you as a companion back then. The priest smiled and nodded.

Yui was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look, only to see that the figures of the warrior, ranger, and priest were gradually blurred, and the knight was slowly getting older, and finally became an old man with white hair, but his spirit was more powerful.

"This ...... What's going on?" she asked in surprise.

"You've passed. A figure suddenly sounded behind her, and she hurriedly turned around in fright, only to see a transparent figure with the same white hair standing less than three steps away from her, judging from the transparent body and the negative energy fluctuations exuded from her body, it was clearly a ghost.

At this time, she was really frightened, and almost threw away the wooden sword in one fell swoop.

"I'm glad to see you scared me a little bit. The old ghost smiled and said, "You used to behave so well, you didn't look like a little girl of your age, full of unreal feelings—now you are much better, you look like a normal person." ”

Yui couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't expect that he would even defeat the evil spirit, but he was startled by this old ghost whose strength was obviously far inferior to the evil spirit.

"Would you like to hear the old man's story?" said the aged knight, "my story, the story of this castle." ”

"Of course I am. Yoi smiled and nodded, "But...... Are you real now, or is it an illusion?"

"For our Lord, there is no difference between reality and illusion as long as He wills. The old knight replied, "But I am a real person at this moment. ”

Of course, this is not a lie, just now Sui Xiong found out that Yui and they might be victorious, and he had an idea and contacted the believer who provided this experience, that is, the only survivor of this group of adventurers back then, the knight.

The knight was surprised to learn that someone who had been receptive to the adventure had reversed the battle, and asked Sui Xiong to let him talk to the wonderful young man.

Of course, Sui Xiong agreed, so although the two sides were in a virtual environment at the moment, this conversation was real.

The old knight praised Yuy's calm and rational thinking and accurate judgment, and praised her for her certain future career and become a great man to look up to, while Yui praised the old knight after learning that he had spent twenty years fulfilling his promise to the ghost, praising him as a heroic figure who could be called a model of knighthood.

"What happened to that castle?" asked Yui curiously.

"Maybe it's still there. The old knight said with some nostalgia, "Counting the time, it has been almost sixty years since I visited the castle with the descendants of its owner. If it had not been repaired and maintained, it might have collapsed. But there was already a new lord there, and perhaps the new lord would take good care of it. ”

"It's a shame that this story didn't end well!" Yui said, sighing.

"Overall, it's not a bad ending. The old knight had already seen it, and said with a smile, "The descendants of the owner of the castle will live well in the future." He was a devotee of the Golden Crown (the goddess of wealth), and I had the privilege of meeting him later during the friendly exchange between the two kingdoms of God, and I thought it was good that they could both have a home after death. ”

"But it's a shame that the castle fell into someone else's hands!"

"It's a little bit of a pity, but there's nothing wrong with that. The old knight smiled and said, "After all, almost a hundred years have passed, and the great lord who controls that land has waited for its heir for so long, and he is worthy of it." ”

"Is a hundred years a long time?" said Yui dissatisfiedly, "Besides, a hundred years have been waiting, why not wait a few more decades?"

The old knight laughed heartily: "Little girl, when you grow up, you will understand, it is really benevolent to spend a hundred years waiting for the possible heir of the castle to appear. The world of adults is not so simple, and the big lord himself has pressure. ”

"What's more...... In a hundred years, most of the great lords have changed several generations, maybe the first generation of the great lords are very persistent, and the subsequent lords are mainly concerned about the mood of the elders...... But a hundred years from now, the parties and their sons and even grandchildren may all die, and who will care about the feelings and thoughts of the old men from generations ago?"

Yoe pouted, upset.

Such a result, such a reality, made her very dissatisfied.

"So you have to work hard, and become an immortal who can stand outside of time as soon as possible, laughing at the old age, sickness and death, and the rise and fall of the country, then you can not take time seriously. The old knight smiled kindly, and the figure faded away, and the whole castle gradually became transparent, turning into a warm pure white.

In the midst of the pure white, Yue heard a gentle voice.

"You're doing a great job, what kind of reward do you want?" (To be continued.) )
