"Stay back later, the smell of blood on you is too strong to attract the attention of those knights. Leo said as he looked at Sylvia, who was splattered with blood.

"Don't you have blood on you, too?" Sylvia said, pointing to the blood on Leo's body and hands.

Leo didn't just use the power of blood to cause slight vibrations on his clothes and body, and then he saw that all the blood seemed to drip down, and not a drop remained on Leo's body.

Sylvia saw Leo's use of the power of blood, and she felt in her heart that she should find this power in her body when she was free, and she might use it in the future.

After disposing of the blood on his body, Leo was about to continue walking, but after his eyes swept over the headless corpse under his feet, he stopped as if he had found something, and then crouched down and examined it carefully.

This passage was not in the remains of the battleship, there were no metal plates around it that could glow for a long time, and although light sources such as braziers were installed at intervals, because these passages were rarely used, these braziers were not lit, and the entire passage was pitch black.

In this environment, it is difficult for ordinary people to see objects clearly, but for Leo and Sylvia, this environment does not affect them in any way, and what they can see under normal circumstances can still be seen clearly at this time.

The headless corpses in the underground caught Leo's attention only because of the exposed skin on the necks of the corpses, which clearly did not look like human skin, but rather like the skin of some kind of reptile.

After confirming this, Leo immediately took off the royal guard knight's armor and motioned for Sylvia to do so.

However, Sylvia just took off the helmets of the two Royal Guard knights who died in her hands and stopped, because there was no need to take off the armor on her body, just by looking at the heads of these two knights, it was already certain that the two Royal Guard knights were completely inhuman.

I saw that the appearance of these two heads was completely inhuman, a huge mouth was split to both sides, until the ear, the mouth was covered with uneven layers of sharp teeth, there was only one hole left in the original nose, and the hole was full of tentacle-like granulations, and only the eye sockets were left in the parts of the glasses, and the original eyeballs had been replaced by a lump of flesh, which was covered with tiny spikes.

On the other side, the headless corpse that was unarmored by Leo also fully presented, although from the outside, he looks like a person, but in fact he is very different from a human, the skin on the surface of the body is all reptilian skin, the hands and feet are all tentacles, and there are some things similar to cancerous sarcoma on the chest, and each sarcoma has an eyeball inside.

"What the hell is this?" asked Sylvia, surprised.

"Don't know?" Leo shook his head.

As he said, he couldn't figure out what the monsters in front of him were, and at first he guessed that they were some kind of clan or mutant, but in his memory, he couldn't find any of the clans and mutants whose appearance matched the monsters in front of him, and more importantly, the pattern of their mutations was completely different from that of the clan and mutants.

The mutations of the clans and mutants are caused by the influence of the forces and cells of the superior existence, and no matter how strange their mutations are, they must conform to the power characteristics and appearance characteristics of the superior existence, but the mutations on the bodies of these knights in front of them are like several different mutation forces kneaded together, and more importantly, they have mutated so badly, but the vital organs of the body have not mutated with their bodies.

Sylvia was a little surprised to hear that Leo didn't know the origin of these knight mutants, and then looked at the corpse under her feet and said, "The knights in the lounge didn't seem to have changed like this before?"

"Yes. Leo nodded, and then, as if thinking of something, he squatted down and carefully examined the armor on these royal guards, then pointed to some of the special-looking floral insignia on the armor, and said, "Although the armor is the same in appearance, the insignia on it is somewhat different, do you know the meaning of these patterns?"

Sylvia followed Leo's finger and was slightly stunned when she saw the pattern on the armor, but quickly remembered something and said, "It's the insignia of the Knights of Silence." ”

"Knights of Silence?" Leo was stunned when he heard this, and quickly remembered the relevant information, and said, "It's just the knights related to the Black Forest?"

"Hmm. Sylvia nodded.

Although the French Royal Guard claims to be a complete knight order on the outside, there are actually various small knights of all sizes inside, but most of these small knights have not been able to leave any traces in the history of the knights of the French Empire from their establishment to their disappearance for various reasons, but the Knights of Silence are different.

This is one of the few knights of the Royal Guard Knights to participate in frontal battles in the name of a single knight, and they are also the last knights to defeat the phalanx of steam engine crossbow infantry from the frontal battlefield, so it can be said that they are the last light of the Knights' frontal battlefield era, and since then, no knights of any country have been able to defeat the enemy on the frontal battlefield, and all of them have implemented tactics such as surprise attacks from the flank battlefield or long-distance enemy rear.

There are many legends about the Knights of the Silence, not only because they are the last light of the Order, but also because they were very brief from the time they appeared to the time they disappeared, less than four months, after which the Knights of the Silence announced their dissolution and never reappeared.

Because the royal guard knight armor they wear is standard armor, it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them from ordinary royal guard knights, the only thing they know is that each of their knights cannot speak, which also makes some people think that the prerequisite for joining the Silent Knights is to cut off their tongues.

"I didn't expect the famous Knights of Silence to look like this. Leo said a word of emotion without much emotion, and then analyzed: "Judging from their physical structure, their physical fitness is indeed much stronger than that of ordinary knights, but this physical strength is not enough for them to defeat the steam engine crossbow of a formation legion head-on, they should have other strength, but the environment here should limit them." ”

"If that's the case, then the Empire's research on artificial clans is probably far deeper than we expected, you must know that the Silent Knights appeared more than fifty years ago, that is to say, more than fifty years ago, the Empire has begun some experiments, and there are mature methods. Sylvia frowned and muttered, a little worried on her face, and then seemed to think that this was not the place to think, so she said, "Let's go! These things are none of our business, and when I get back I will report this matter, and it is up to them to deal with it." ”

Leo nodded, didn't bother with the corpse of the Silent Knights, continued to walk forward, after walking a distance, when he was about to approach the exit of the passage, he asked Sylvia to stay away, and then quietly sneaked forward, and soon walked out of the passage, came to the edge of a small square that was not very large, after carefully checking the surrounding situation, he quickly moved to the door of the guardhouse along the dark corner of the square, and while throwing the stun grenade into the room again, he did not hide his figure, and rushed directly to several knights of the Silent Knights who looked like they were on routine patrol outside the guardhouse。

Unsuspecting, the knights of the Knights of the Silent Order on patrol died under Leo's men before they even had time to realize what had happened, and the other knights of the Knights of the Silent Knights on the other side of the guard room, like their colleagues before, either fainted to the ground or were paralyzed by the effects of the stun grenade.

Sylvia saw Leo move from a distance, so she immediately rushed towards the guard room, and at the same time that Leo eliminated a few members of the Silent Knights outside, she also rushed to the guard room, glanced inside, and quickly eliminated the Silent Knights.

"The famous Knights of Silence disappeared silently into your hands and mine. Leo came to the guardhouse, looked at the corpse on the ground, and said.

Sylvia didn't have much emotion, but said disapprerovingly: "There are countless knights who have disappeared silently in this world, and the Knights of Silence are neither the most powerful nor the most famous. ”

The two of them didn't bother with the Knights of Silence's fall at their own hands, and their attention was quickly focused on the door of the treasury not far from the exit on the other side of the guardhouse.

Sylvia opened the door and walked out of the guardhouse, walked to the door of the treasure house, looked at Leo who walked to the side and asked, "Is it just an ordinary gate, could there be any hidden traps, traps, etc.?"

It turned out that the gate in front of them was too different from the treasure house gate they had guessed before, this gate was an ordinary metal gate, and there was nothing worth finding on the gate except for a very old card lock.

In Leo and Sylvia's previous guesses, this treasure house gate was either a high-tech gate modified from a prehistoric civilization, that is, the wreckage of a warship, or a mysterious power gate with various protective powers or Turing circles on the surface, but the ordinary metal gate in front of them without any defense power was really a bit unexpected for them.

Leo thought for a moment and speculated: "This basement should have been built later, even if there are still the remains of a prehistoric civilization that can be used, I'm afraid the builder will not know how to use it, and as for the gate containing mysterious power, it is not impossible to play a role in this situation." ”

Sylvia nodded approvingly.

Then, Leo motioned for Sylvia to step back a bit, then reached out and twisted the lock on the door, then grabbed the two dusty tabs on the doorknob and slowly pulled the door.

Although Leo thinks that there are no dangerous traps or traps on the gate, he is still very careful when he pulls, ready to let go and back away.

But as the door slowly opened, the danger he feared did not appear, and everything was very calm.

"It's as simple as that?" Sylvia said without feeling any danger, walking over to Leo's side, looking at the treasure house inside the door, and with some disbelief.

"Seemingly, it's that simple!" Leo responded in the same tone, and then couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly and said, "We seem to be thinking a little too much." ”

In fact, if you think about it carefully as a bystander, you will feel that the two of them do think too much, whether it is the current French Emperor Louis X, or the previous builders, after the death of the construction here, I am afraid that if someone can break into the core of this palace and bring it, then it means that the French Empire is late, and it is meaningless to add any means of defense to the door.

After thinking about this, Leo and Sylvia's attention began to focus on the treasure house, this treasure house is not small, but there are not many things, each item is very separated, not next to each other, it seems that this should be the treasure house where the Emperor Fran stored special items.

Leo's gaze swept through the treasury, and he soon found his primary target, the Contract Ring.

The ring was lying quietly on a stone platform in the center of the vault, surrounded by other mysterious objects that looked unusual.

However, when Leo took a cursory glance at the surrounding items and felt that there was no problem, and was about to step forward to take the contract ring away, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a stone statue placed on a stone platform.

The reason why this stone statue attracted him was not only because he felt that the mysterious power that enveloped this place all came from this stone statue, but more importantly, he had seen this stone statue before, in the stone pillar space where the stone throne was located, and this stone statue was the stone sculpture at the top of one of the stone pillars.

"Why are things here?" Muttered Leo to himself.

"What's that?" Sylvia looked at Leo with a puzzled expression.

Leo didn't answer, but turned to Sylvia and said, "You go and put away everything you see valuable." ”

After saying that, he walked directly towards the stone carving, and when he passed by the stone platform where the contract ring was stored, he took the ring off and put it on his hand.

Leo, who came to the front of the stone carving, did not rush to put his hand on it, but leaned down and carefully looked at the strange patterns on the stone carving, and what was surprising was that the mysterious power that shrouded this place came from the stone carving, but after approaching the stone carving, this power seemed very weak, so weak that if Leo had not personally felt the power of the stone throne, I am afraid he would not be able to feel it clearly.
