Chapter Forty-Nine: True Strength

Whew――

In the gloomy passageway, Carnegie's body burned in flames.

In the firelight, Roger put away the Seal Spell Scroll he had found from Carnegie, as well as the unactivated metal orb Witch Equipment, and a few other items that seemed to be of little value.

"After you go out, what to say and what not to say, you don't need me to teach you, right?" Roger said, looking at Longbottom, who was trembling and worried about being killed by himself.

"No, no. Longbottom shook his hand again and again, and hurriedly said, "I don't know anything, because I was so tired from the battle that I fainted, so I didn't see anything." ”

Roger nodded, not intending to kill people.

Even if Longbottom told the truth, he did nothing wrong, and Carnegie, as an assistant teacher, wanted to kill him during the mission because of a personal vendetta, but he killed him instead. In any way, this matter will not be his fault, and the reason why he does not ask Longbottom to say more is because he does not want to cause more trouble.

If you directly blame Carnegie's death on the 'parasite', you don't have to explain so much.

"Mistress Roger, what did you just say...... You're a knight too?" Longbottom couldn't help but ask.

"Why, don't I look like me?" Roger laughed.

"This, this, I really didn't find out that you were also a knight, but...... You just said you were a Grand Knight, is that true?" Longbottom's expression was slightly agitated.

The knight system of this continent actually appeared with the arrival of the powerful wizard who broke through the sky a long time ago and established the teleportation witch array.

Because the training and cultivation methods of the knightly system, if you go back to the source, they are also created by a certain wizard and gradually perfected, which is the most suitable cultivation method for ordinary people to develop physical strength.

Because Longbottom didn't know the origin of knights, he had contempt for the existence of wizards, but despite this, he was still clear about the rank of knights, at least he knew that there were high-level knights above the middle-level knights, and the big knights meant the pinnacle of the knight's path!

Like wizards, the cultivation of knights will also be affected by many external factors, talent and perseverance is one thing, different environments, cultivation resources, which will also affect the advancement of knights.

On this continent, due to the discontinuity of the generations, the small population, and the lack of resources, not even a high-ranking knight has ever appeared in historical records. This also makes the knights on this continent more and more full of longing for the higher level of knights who have never appeared.

It is no exaggeration to say that Longbottom feels to the Grand Knight what Roger feels to the superior wizard.

"Nature is true. ”

Roger's reaction to Longbottom is not unusual, in fact, don't say that there has never been a great knight on this continent, even if there have been several great knights on the continent where Roger was born, his existence is still admired by all the knights on that continent.

"I wonder if you can ...... it, adult."

"Tell me?" said Roger, smiling.

Longbottom was told by Roger, so he didn't beat around the bush, and simply nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Roger was about to speak, but the words came to his lips and swallowed back.

His ears twitched slightly, and then he said to Longbottom: "There are parasites again, there are many more than before, deal with them first and then talk about the others." ”

Longbottom was stunned for a moment, and then, he also heard some movements, and then he realized that Roger, the great knight, was much stronger than his perception, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, my lord!"

Roger turned the dagger in his hand around, and there was still a trace of exhaustion.

In the next moment, his form had disappeared from the spot.

"It seems that the 'parasites' inside have already discovered us, and we need to solve them quickly!" Holding the dagger, two parasites appeared in Roger's sight, and they were rushing towards him with red eyes.

These two parasites are no different from the ones killed by Roger before, they were just ordinary people before they were parasitized, and after being controlled by parasites, they only have the physical quality equivalent to that of a beginner knight, and they don't have the combat experience of a beginner knight. When Roger no longer deliberately hides his strength, to him, these two parasites are not much different from ordinary people.

"Die!"

When he was about to meet the two parasites, Roger's speed exploded again, and before the two parasites had time to react, he cut off their necks!

Zizi-!!

At the same time that the two parasites were killed instantly, two high-pitched screams came from their bodies.

Roger was no stranger to this voice, because it was the 'parasitic species' that hid and possessed the parasite. When they are usually in a parasitic state, their color will become like the epidermis of a parasite, and they will cling to the parasite, and if you don't look carefully, it will be difficult for you to easily find the existence of the parasite even if the parasite is standing naked in front of you.

However, when the parasite dies, because it is in a state of being controlled by the 'parasitic seed', the 'parasitic seed' on his body will also receive a certain mental impact, and it will let out a painful sound.

"Found ......"

As soon as the screams of the 'parasitic species' came, a smile appeared on the corner of Roger's mouth, and he reflexively stabbed at the bodies of the two parasites one after another! After stabbing twice in an instant, the two 'parasitic species' fell off the parasites and changed back to their original colors.

With Roger's reflexes and explosive speed, the 'parasite' has no possibility of getting close at all.

At the same time, in the depths of the passage behind him, several more figures appeared.

Without a moment's hesitation, Roger turned and ran away to meet the arriving parasites!

It's a long story, but it only happens in the second, and when Roger has eliminated the first two parasites and moved on, Longbottom's talent catches up.

"Is this the strength of the Great Knight? Longbottom was dumbfounded.

If he had to deal with these two parasites when he had enough energy, he would have been able to deal with them as well, but he would never have been able to understate them as lightly as Roger.

Because of the parasite at the level of a knight of the first rank, what really makes him jealous is actually the 'parasitic seed' that is attached to the parasite and may raid him at any time, his reaction speed is not as fast as Roger's, and he can kill the 'parasite' in advance before the 'parasite' appears.

Soon, Roger eliminated several more parasites, and his body once again ran deeper into the passage.

Longbottom sadly found that even if Roger was moving forward while fighting, his speed was much faster than his own, and thinking of this, he put aside his distractions, gritted his teeth, and mustered up his strength to chase after Roger.

"Lord Roger, wait for me!"

Armed with his sword, Longbottom chased after Roger's back.

Lying on the ground lay the corpses of freshly dead parasites, all of which, without exception, had been stabbed in the throat with a dagger, killing them instantly.
