The petite figure sprang through the trees, turning into a meteor and speeding in the direction of the river valley.

Sidwig was still dressed in the same strange way at the moment, her body was firmly controlled by the tight straitjacket, her two slender arms were also tied behind her with heavy belts, and four long swords of the same length were carried behind her. Although the black blindfold completely obscured the girl's eyes, her movements did not pause in the slightest, even in this precipitous, full of obstacles and trees, she was able to move quickly, even perfectly avoiding the rocks and scattered branches, although her speed was fast, but nothing could touch her body.

“――！！”

Just as he was about to reach his destination, Sidwig suddenly stopped, and at that moment, his body that had been running suddenly stood still, and if people saw this strange scene, he was afraid that he would vomit blood because of the perfect contradiction between movement and stillness. But Sidwig didn't react, and although her speed was unimaginably fast, when she stopped, she was completely unaffected by any reaction force, which was beyond anyone could imagine.

Of course, Sidwig didn't stop by chance, because at this moment, not far in front of her, a young girl was standing quietly, wearing a silver-white armor, and her long red hair dancing like flames in the wind.

“..................”

Sidwig didn't speak, her brow furrowed, a palpable hint of impatience and irritability on her face - but it only lasted for a moment, and it immediately turned to caution and calm.

Because at this moment, two figures, one black and one white, walked out from the left and right sides of Sidwig, they looked slightly younger than Sidwig, and the two innocent faces had exactly the same smile. Sensing this, Sidwig's body moved slightly, and her left foot slowly took a step back—half a step back.

"Long time no see, Miss Sidwig. ”

With this greeting, Julien appeared behind Sidwig, and at this moment, he, Messiah, Semia, and Judy formed a perfect encirclement network, completely encircling Sidwig.

"Is that you?"

Xi Dewei's face sank slightly, and from the voice and breath of her voice, she had already sensed that the people in front of her were the three people who had a relationship with her. It's just that they didn't bring any unusual feelings to themselves at that time. But now it was different, Sidwig could clearly feel the shining soul power emanating from them.

Knight class.

This discovery even Sidwig couldn't help but be a little surprised, she never thought that in this ghost place where birds don't, she would meet four people with knightly strength. She immediately became cautious, what was going on? Who were they, why were they here?

"Yes, it's us, Miss Sidway. ”

In the face of Sidwig's inquiry, Yulian nodded easily, and then, he shrugged his shoulders with a smile.

"Frankly, I was quite surprised. Originally, I was going to look for you, but I didn't expect it...... You actually took the initiative to appear in front of us, it seems that this mission was not in vain, and there are still some gains. ”

"Humph!"

Sidwig snorted coldly.

"Who are you?"

"Let me introduce myself first. ”

As he spoke, You Lian bowed slightly elegantly, and then said with a smile.

"I'm the lord of the Twilight Forest, Julien Felix, and I'm meeting you for the second time, so please advise. ”

"You're a Wester?"

Sidway's face changed slightly, of course she knew where the Twilight Forest was, and what it was like. Thinking of this, Sidwig suddenly remembered, didn't they still jokingly mention that place at the previous imperial meeting? I heard that there was a noble lord there who had the strength of a high-ranking swordsman, and he also had two subordinates of equal strength. It's just that no one took this rumor to heart at the time, and the four generals all regarded this as a propaganda strategy used by the West Kingdom to boost morale, and if they took 10,000 steps back, even if they were really high-level swordsmen, they were definitely no match for gifted knights.

However, Sidwig did not expect that this person was the protagonist of the rumored rumor. And, unlike the rumors, he doesn't have the strength of a high-level swordsman, but a complete knight class!

However, even so, Sidwig still did not show confusion or panic. Although she has been surrounded by four people with knightly strength, it is the same, on the mainland, the gap in strength between low-level swordsmen, middle-level swordsmen, high-level swordsmen, and knights is absolute and cannot be crossed. And even in the same level, it is the same, it is impossible for a mid-level and low-level swordsman to beat the mid-level and high-rank, and the same is true for the high-rank. In the same way, in the knight class, there is also a hierarchy of strength and weakness.

Among them, the weakest is the Holy Grace Knights, they are also known as copycat knights, because the beliefs of these people do not belong to themselves, and their strength is only half and half, so they are also the weakest, the Holy Grace Knights bully and bully high-level swordsmen or have no pressure, but in the face of genuine knights, there is no way to fight back.

Soul knights, on the other hand, have truly reached the existence of the knightly class, but they are not without weaknesses. The first characteristic of knights is their ability to manifest their beliefs into swordsmanship, so that they can show their might in battle. And the battle between the two knights is more of a collision between faith and belief. It is as if one knight's belief in immortality and the other's belief in never killing people, then when the two beliefs manifest swordsmanship will collide directly.

And the battle between the knights is very cruel, because both sides are not only gambling on their own sword skills, their own lives, but also their own beliefs. Knight swordsmanship is the embodiment of faith, and once the swordsmanship is broken, then it means that the knight's belief is also broken, and in this way, he will lose the source of his own strength and become a walking corpse, and at that time, even if he is alive, then it will be no different from a dead man.

Of course, not every knight fights like this, and if it is those who have beliefs such as "one hit misses, fly a thousand miles", "fight and run", and "never fight head-on", then it is not difficult to choose to flee after fighting. But if it is those soul knights who "fight for their lives", "either you die or I die", "never retreat", etc., once they are defeated, then the consequences will be very serious. Because in this way, they can't even choose to surrender and flee in battle, but only fight to the death.

However, even if the battle between knights and knights is very brutal and the lethality is not to be underestimated, they are only one person, one person, who can face hundreds or even thousands of enemies alone. But what about tens of thousands? What about going up? There is always a limit to personal heroism, and if you are inferior in strength, you will be crushed to death by the tactics of crowds, and no matter how strong the knight's lethality is, there is a limit.

But the gifted knight is the strongest of the knightly class.

Gifted Knight.

Just by relying on these four words, it is enough to make people envious, jealous and hateful.

They have unparalleled knightly talent, they have an unrivaled understanding of combat, they have unparalleled faith, and most importantly, they have something that no one else can ever get – an aura of talent.

If it is said that the battle between the soul knights is a confrontation and conflict between two beliefs. Then the aura of the gifted knight is to completely expand the scope of his belief, and in this way, it is very disadvantageous for the knight, because it means that even if they do not fight each other head-on, as long as they enter the range of the opponent's aura, they will also have to fight against the power of the other party's faith. Therefore, the gap between the talent knight and the soul knight is also very large.

Therefore, even if she is surrounded now, Sidwig does not show panic, four knights are indeed rare, but she believes that as long as she casts her talent aura, then she still has the strength to fight. Moreover, Sidwig's belief is not to fight to the death, so she does not have any psychological burden for a temporary retreat.

But are these people really just knights?

Sidwig was a little hesitant, ordinary people couldn't see the difference between a knight and a high-level swordsman, it was very simple. Because the mark of a high-level swordsman is the ability to detach the sword qi from the body, as long as you see the sword qi detached from the body, then you can judge that it is a high-level swordsman. But the sign of a knight is very subtle, unless you really fight, unless the other party uses your own swordsmanship, it is difficult to judge whether you have reached the level of a knight. Of course, this is for ordinary people, and for knights of the same class, they can certainly feel the strength of each other's beliefs, and this strength and weakness are fused in the power of the soul, so Sidwig can feel the powerful power of faith and soul power from the four people in front of him - this is the sign of a knight.

However, such a young soul knight? Sidwi had never seen it, she was a little suspicious that the other party was a gifted knight like herself, but it was unlikely - the four knights of damnation were not idiots, if West really had four gifted knights, then he was not afraid to fight with him at all, how could that emperor agree to Sister Lintillot's request?

"Don't be so nervous, Miss Sidway. ”

Yulian didn't seem to notice the solemn atmosphere in front of him at all, but smiled and waved his hand at Sidwig.

"I'm here to talk to you about a deal. ”

"However, I'm not interested in your trade!"

At that moment, Sidwig moved!

A dark blue aura suddenly erupted from under her feet and spread out to all sides, and with the appearance of the aura, the surrounding atmosphere also changed suddenly!

Sidwig raised her foot again and tried to retreat, but this time, her foot still only moved half a step, and she stopped abruptly. And for the first time, there was a solemn and uneasy look on the girl's face.

Red, white, black.

The three auras were dead on the edge of the blue aura, preventing it from continuing to spread, while the three people in front of them were still expressionless, the red-haired girl was still calm and composed, and the smiles of the twin sisters did not change in the slightest. As for Yuren's side, although there was no aura appearing, Sidwig felt it. His talent aura couldn't move forward at all in front of the other party, and he stopped abruptly, as if he had encountered an insurmountable wall.

Sure enough, it's a gifted knight!

Sidwig gritted her teeth, and then, the four long swords behind her back made a soft "ballast" sound at the same time.

The sword is unsheathed!

"Don't be so excited, Miss Sidway. ”

And at this moment, Yu Lian still looked leisurely.

"It's better to listen to the deal before making a decision, you won't regret it. ”

“..............................”

Hearing this, Sidway's face remained unchanged, but her breathing became a little rapid, and then, she thought for a moment, and then the four long swords that were originally unsheathed on her back were retracted at the same time, and they returned to their original state. Then, Sidwig slowly turned around and looked at Yuren with her face obscured by the blindfold.

"So, let's talk, what a deal. ”

"It's simple. ”

Yuren snapped his fingers with a smile and shrugged his shoulders.

"I'll give you a chance to wipe out all the garrisons of the Red Fortress in one fell swoop, I don't know, are you interested in this deal?"
