In the team led by Deed, there were a total of five high-level swordsmen and four middle-level swordsmen besides him. and five mid-level priests, both in terms of number and strength, they are quite good. Especially those priests, they can not only chant divine arts, strengthen the bodies of those swordsmen, speed them up, and even help them recover from their injuries in battle, which is considered a very threatening figure. In fact, in the face of battle, the Church of Holy Grace also has its own unique way of fighting, they do not completely protect the priests, but use a triangular cross to encircle them, and if the enemy thinks that it is a loophole and wants to kill those priests first, then they will find that they will enter the encirclement instead. Like the mages, the priests will also bless themselves with some unique protective magic in battle, and as long as they have these magic protection, it is impossible for four or five people to get close. Even high-level swordsmen want to break their magical defenses, but it will take a lot of work.

When those black-armored warriors began to act, the people who had already stood in their positions also sneered inwardly, in their opinion, it was obvious that the other party's target was the priest behind them, and even high-level swordsmen, once they entered their encirclement, it would be difficult to escape. So, seeing that the black-armored warriors took action, the people on the side of the church immediately shifted their direction and opened their "pockets" to each other, waiting for this group of stupid guys to throw themselves into the net.

However, what happened next was completely unexpected by everyone.

Those black-armored warriors didn't seem to notice the loopholes they deliberately released at all, on the contrary, before entering the siege, their speed slowed down suddenly, although no one spoke, but at that moment, as if a silent order came into the ears of the black-armored warriors, I saw them all stop, and at the same time slid backwards quite tacitly, only then did they draw the giant sword in their hands, and then, the figure flashed.

Although the pause of these black-armored warriors was only a few seconds, but this had completely disrupted the pace of the church warriors, they had already launched an equal encirclement according to the speed of the opponent's action, but because of the momentary pause just now, they were not able to react at the first time, which also caused a trace of panic in their movements, and just before they had time to adjust their pace, they saw that those black-armored warriors had already raised their two-handed giant swords in their hands and rushed towards them.

This sudden anomaly made the church warriors stunned, they had never seen anyone who did not take the first attack on the priest after they put on this formation, after all, people with a little adventure experience know very well that in battle, the priest and mage are the first targets that need to be dealt with, otherwise, things will become very tricky, and how can these guys do the opposite, to say that they have no combat experience, no matter how the other party looks at it, they are all high-level swordsmen, it is impossible not to even have this bit of common sense.

Although they had doubts in their hearts, in the face of the giant sword of the black-armored warrior, the church warriors still rushed forward and became entangled with each other. The Spirit Warriors did not all participate in this battle, they divided three to protect the mercenaries, and the remaining seven were the main force of the battle. And because of this, the battle situation is difficult to understand for a while, although the spirit warriors have the power of ancient sword skills and elemental caste and are powerful, but after all, the other party has a large number of people, plus the priest treats in the back from time to time to help the church warriors defend, and it also makes the spirit warriors have no way to easily succeed, so the battle fell into a stalemate for a while, only the sound of weapons and calls was heard, echoing under this blue sky.

For the Church warriors in battle, they had plenty of confidence, and although the other side was not surrounded as they thought, it was more relaxed for them in the current situation, after all, if these black-armored warriors were really determined to kill them first, then they were on an impossible mission. You know, right now, the priests have blessed them with divine techniques such as protection and power blessings, and relying on the support of these divine techniques, they are completely sure that they can take down these black-armored warriors.

Although the samurai were very optimistic about the situation of the battle, Deed had a solemn face, unlike his own subordinates, Deed, who had not yet joined the battle, found a big problem at the moment when the melee between the two sides began. Those black-armored warriors did not make such judgments because of their lack of combat experience, on the contrary, they were well aware of the shortcomings of the priests!!

The pastor of the Church of Grace has always been responsible for his own healing, protection, and so on. But they are not without their weaknesses, and the fatal weakness of them is the balance of the surname.

As a priest, the first thing he needs to do in battle is not to protect himself, but to protect other warriors. This requires the pastor to have a high degree of concentration and reflexes, but after all, people have limits, and the more attention the pastor puts into others, the more he will subconsciously weaken his own protection. And in such a state, they are vulnerable to sneak attacks. After all, and this is also the priest's fatal injury, after all, magic requires a reaction time, but if a priest focuses too much on other target characters, even if he comes back to his senses at the moment of attack, there is no way to resist the attack. And this is where the priest is more vulnerable than the mage, after all, although the mage's body is also very weak, but in battle, he only needs to take care of himself, and he can give himself absolute attention all the time. But many times pastors tend to focus their attention outside of themselves, which naturally brings more danger.

And now these black-armored warriors are exactly what they are doing, desperately attacking the church warriors, forcing the priests' attention to focus on them, in case anything happens. And in this way, the priests will neglect to protect themselves, and now, all these black-armored warriors have to do is wait for a sufficient time!

Sensing this, Deed felt himself break out in a cold sweat, who are these guys? How could they be so familiar with the weaknesses of the church? From the order of stagnant attacks just now to disrupt the formation, to now attract the attention of the priest by storming, this is definitely not something ordinary warriors and adventurers can do! In fact, for these weaknesses, even in the church, only those experienced, sophisticated, and senior priests and knights know about it, how do these people perceive this?

Deed wanted to join the battle and change the situation in front of him, and with the strength of his Holy Grace Knight, it would not be a problem to deal with only seven high-level swordsmen, but at the moment, he couldn't move, because at this moment, the tall young man, holding a black long sword in his hand, with a smile that was obviously mocking, stood in front of him.

"Don't be so surprised, knockoffs. ”

Yulian leaned slightly on the side of the hill and stood on the hillside, he was not directly in front of Deed, but the knight of Holy Grace knew very well that with his current angle and direction, whether he was going to rescue his companions or trying to rush down the hill and hold those mercenaries, it was absolutely impossible to do so. Julien was pinpointedly stuck in the center of the two best offensive lines, and no matter which side he chose, Deed had no doubt that he would be killed in an instant by a thunderous blow.

If he said that the person standing in front of him was a high-level swordsman, then he could still fight to break through, after all, no matter how subtle the skill was, if there was no assistance from power, it was still a little weak. But standing in front of him was a knight, a gifted knight, and a quasi-knight.

Thinking of this, Deed couldn't help but gasp, of course he understood the gap between the Holy Grace Knight and the real knight, their power did not come from their own souls, they did not have their own knightly swordsmanship, they didn't even have their own ............... It can be said that compared to real knights, these knights of the Holy Grace are only half-finished products, and they are not qualified to fight with them at all, which is why when Julien mocks himself as a copycat, Deed has no way to refute it - he knows very well that this is true.

It is true that the knights of the Holy Grace are very powerful, and they can easily win in the face of high-level swordsmen, so they are considered by the world to be knights, but in fact, they are just sandwiched between high-level swordsmen and knights, and they are just an existence that is not up or down. There's no way they've become true knights, there's no way they've turned back into high-level swordsmen, that's all.

"Who the hell are you?"

Deed glanced uneasily at the nearby hillside, the situation was deteriorating, but his men did not seem to be aware of the other party's plot at all, which made him nervous, and he wished he could call out to them now to warn them of the danger they were encountering. But now, Deed can't even do this, because at this moment, standing in front of him is a knight, and in the face of a knight, you must not be careless at any time, otherwise, in the end, you will only lose your own surname.

Therefore, the only thing this half-elf knight can do at the moment is to keep an eye on the man in front of him to prevent him from sneaking up again, the other party is obviously not a person who likes to abide by the spirit of chivalry, which has already been detected in the battle just now.

No, the so-called rules of knighthood, in fact, were originally only for those pseudo-knights, people who can really become knights, have their own invincible beliefs, they will not necessarily protect the weak, obey justice, and in fact, "only the powerful can be king" and "through killing to achieve self", such beliefs are not uncommon among real knights, although there are also knights with the same noble virtues, but their number is extremely rare. And from the blow just now, Deed already understood that although he did not understand what kind of beliefs this young gifted knight was fighting to, it was absolutely impossible for him to be included in the virtues. Therefore, the only thing he can do now is to delay time and find flaws in the other party's words, at the very least, to find out the power of the other party's caste. Otherwise, if your strength, strength, and even the trajectory and direction of the sword suddenly disappear during the fight, then you will never be in trouble.

"I think I've introduced myself. ”

In the face of Deed's question, Yulian only raised his eyebrows.

"I am the lord of this twilight forest, Julien Felix, and as an intruder trespassing on someone else's territory, I think it's polite that you should remember my name. ”

“.................. I recognize your strength, my lord. ”

Deed opened his mouth, as if considering how to convince the other party.

"However, I hope you don't blur your eyes because of your strength, you know, there are many things in this world that cannot be fought against by strength......... And .................."

“............ Ah!!h

At this moment, a scream was heard, which startled Deed.

Judy reversed the long sword, and the bright red flames burning on it completely wrapped the church warrior in front of her in the blink of an eye, just now, she suddenly jumped up when she was originally resisting the attack of the three high-level swordsmen, and suddenly rushed forward after dodging the long swords on the left and right sides, although in the face of Judy's strong attack, the high-level swordsman in front of him also shouted and stabbed out the long sword in his hand, in a vain attempt to force the other party to turn with this kind of trick that ended up together, but he didn't expect that in the face of the bright long sword on his chest, Judy didn't have the slightest intention of dodging, she let the shining long sword penetrate her armor, and then raised the giant sword with both hands, slashing into the shoulder of the swordsman in front of him.

Although this originally powerful blow did not kill the Church Warrior under the effect of the Protective Divine Technique, the damage caused by it was not negligible. However, just as the priest behind him was about to treat his injuries, Judy's greatsword suddenly burst into bright, dazzling flames, and the hot flames broke through the divine protection in an instant, and then completely reduced the poor creature to charcoal.

The situation on the battlefield has changed abruptly.

In the face of this sudden change, the samurai side of the church were a little overwhelmed, they had no idea that the other party would actually carry out a forcible killing in such a situation!

Holy grace above, are these guys still human?

It was only a moment, but it was this moment that the spirit warriors had been waiting for.

At the moment when the warriors of the church were shaken and panicked by the death of their companions, those wandering warriors who were originally engaged in their struggle suddenly changed direction, they did not hesitate at all, let alone waver or hesitate, as if they had expected this moment, they raised their long swords, and while the beating elemental power covered the huge sword body, they had already turned into several black shadows and rushed towards the three priests in the rear.

"Be careful!!"

It was only then that the church warriors reacted, and they tried to come forward to intercept it, but it was too late.

Due to the fierce fighting before, the priests had been focusing on healing and protecting the Church warriors, and of course, although they had also applied a layer of protection to themselves before the battle, but that was the end of it. After all, the target of the opponent's attack was not himself, but the samurai, and in such a fierce battle situation, they naturally did not allow them to have the leisure to exert new protection on themselves.

Because of this, when the poor church warrior wailed under the flames, the three priests' originally tense nerves immediately rose to the highest, and when they came back from that moment of trance, they found that the huge and sharp sword body that shone with the power of the elemental caste had already come to them.

The battle is decided.

"That's it. ”

Yuren didn't turn his head to look at the battlefield, but for him, it was not difficult to imagine what was going on there.

"Goodbye, then, Copycat Knight. ”

"Dreaming!"

Deed shouted angrily and swung out his sword, the blade of which slashed through the air, then suddenly retracted, colliding with the pitch-black fangs again.

This time, however, things are different.

The light on the sword in Deed's hand became brighter and brighter, but on the contrary, the pitch-black sword in Yuren's hand began to bend gradually, twisting and spinning like an illusion in the water.

"We, the Knights of Holy Grace, have served the Templars all our lives, we fight to protect the balance of Mana, to protect this world!

With these words, the surroundings began to change, the air began to become solemn, and Deed's body began to have a strange appearance, the originally soft skin has now turned into a hard crystal, even the unique graceful face of the half-elf, at this moment also changed like a stone sculpture without color, the soft long hair condensed, the original emerald green eyes suddenly disappeared, but what remained was a white pupil shining with white light.

"Die!!"

A flash of silver.

The cold light tore through the ground like an invisible, massive claw that pounced on Yuren. In the face of this powerful attack, Yu Lian frowned, and then, his body swayed, and the accelerated charge made him dodge the opponent's fatal blow in an instant, leaving only five shocking scars on the ground. At the same moment, a faint, near-nothingness black line leaped out of Julien's hand and slashed Deed's left arm.

"Boom!!"

What was somewhat surprising was that the sword had slashed into Deed's left hand, but it did not cause any damage at all, on the contrary, a low sound like a metal collision sounded, and in the next moment, the uncertain black fangs lost their original power for the first time, and had to curl up back into their master's hand.

"Manna crystallization?"

You Lian held the long sword, and the expression on his face was very indifferent, as if the futile blow just now was not a failure for him at all.

"I didn't expect the current Holy Grace Knight to do this, I really should have brought Ofaril as a meat shield............ But forget it, it's up to me to do the same. ”

As he spoke, Yuren stretched out his right hand, raised his palm, looked at the knight in front of him who was rushing towards him, and shrugged his shoulders.

"Okay, it's not a big deal, let's wash up. ”

As he spoke, a white, strange mark appeared in the center of Julien's palm, and then vanished.

The air settled.

Deed had already rushed in front of Yuren, but he didn't go any further, he just raised the long sword in his hand like that, and kept the posture of preparing to slash down, and the Manna crystal that had originally wrapped his body had now fallen like snowflakes, merged, and disappeared into the air. And at this moment, one of Yu Lian's fingers was on his breastplate, although as long as he chopped off the long sword in his hand, it was enough to make Yu Lian have nowhere to escape, but now, Dee Dee was pale, trembling and trembling, as if he couldn't even do this.

"How is this possible............ How could you possibly have this power............"

His eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the young man in front of him, as if to see him thoroughly. In the face of his inquiry, Yulian only shrugged his shoulders.

"So I said, I've never liked the Church of Holy Grace. ”

This was the last word that Deed heard, Yuren's words.
