Chapter 247: [Power of the Holy Source]

"Jingle bell—"

The crisp sound of the bell spread from the neck of the war horse under the crotch of the green and silver knight, and the flickering spear broke through the layers of air, bringing a piercing whistling wind.

Leo's eyes froze slightly.

The speed of the Green and Silver Knight's attack is amazingly fast, and in the environment of the Sacred Tree Flvedea's hundred-fold gravity, it means that purely with the power of the flesh, the strength of the Green Silver Knight has the lowest legendary limit.

However, how could the Green and Silver Knight, who was a combat professional, not possess any supernatural power like the "Sacred Tree Dweller"?

Under Leo's gaze, a layer of surging green light appeared on the surface of the green and silver knight and the body surface of the war horse under his crotch.

As soon as the light appeared, the speed of the green and silver knight suddenly increased, reaching a level close to the speed of sound in an instant.

At such a speed, the distance of hundreds of meters was fleeting, and the howling cold wind greeted him, causing the hem of Leo's clothes to rise backwards and rattle.

"Bell—"

The light-chasing sword was unsheathed, and the blade rubbed against the body of the spear, exploding into violent sparks.

The spear in the green and silver knight's hand looked ordinary, but the quality was surprisingly good, and in the face of the [Extreme Sharpness] of the artifact-level light-chasing sword, there were not too many signs of breakage.

And when the guns and swords collided, a strange force came from the opponent's spear, wanting to invade Leo's body.

This force is extremely corrosive, and as soon as it enters the body, it will destroy Leo's body tissue.

The magic rushes up and consumes each other with this force.

Soon, this strange power was worn away, but when it disappeared with it, there was about 10% of Leo's magic power.

"Thorn-"

In the sparks that exploded, Leo's long sword entered the sheath, and the "Mystery Sword Technique: Ring Break" slashed out without warning!

The diffuse ring-shaped concussive sword qi caused the green and silver knight on the war horse to fall like a heavy blow.

"Appeal ......"

The horse was half raised high, the horse neighed, and the reddened eyes stared at Leo, and the hooves stepped down heavily.

"Winter—"

In the dull loud noise, a deep pit appeared on the ground, and at this moment, Leo had already come to the side of the war horse, and the sharp long sword slashed through the gap in the war horse's neck armor.

"Scratch the ......"

In the splash of black blood, the horse's head broke, and the long sword in Leo's hand flashed, and the tip of the sword pierced into the eyebrows of the green and silver knight who fell to the ground.

The green and silver knight's body trembled when the magic power was slashed, the sword intent broke the soul, and the armor and eyebrows were pierced, and then died completely.

"Qiang—"

The black blood shattered, the sword returned to its sheath, and a large mass of soul condensed from the dead green and silver knight's body, floating in front of Leo's body.

——

[Obtain [Sacred Tree Knight]'s Soul of the Weaker King......]

——

Looking at the green soul glowing with a slight gold in his hand, Leo's eyes flashed with solemnity.

The identity of the Green and Silver Knight is the Knight of the Holy Tree, which Leo has long guessed, but what he expected is the strength of the Knight of the Holy Tree.

Don't look at the fact that he just solved the Sacred Tree Knight in three or two moves, but this does not mean that the Sacred Tree Knight is weak.

The soul of a weak king means that the strength of the Sacred Tree Knight has reached the level of a pseudo-demigod.

According to the information previously seen in the "Tree Chronicle", the tower sage Lukecius had transformed 1,323 Sacred Tree Knights into a pure-blood ritual, which means that the number of Sacred Tree Knights must far exceed the number of 1,323.

The Sacred Tree Knight who has not undergone a pure-blood ritual has the strength of a pseudo-demigod, so what extent will the strength of the Sacred Tree Pure-Blood Knight who has undergone ritual transformation reach?

Demigod Beginner? Intermediate? Or is it advanced?

"Hoo ......"

Leo exhaled lightly and set his gaze on the location of the Sacred Tree Knight's corpse.

As the soul was ingested, the corpse of the Sacred Tree Knight gradually dissipated into ashes, but the armor on its body remained, and did not disappear with other objects.

——

[Sacred Tree Armor]: The Guardian Knight of the Sacred Tree Flvidea - The standard armor worn by the Sacred Tree Knight is forged by superb craftsmanship, is lightweight, has strong defensive performance, and has additional resistance to fire damage.

The sacred tree gives power to the knights who guard it!

——

After a brief glance at the introduction of [Sacred Tree Armor] on the character panel, Leo locked his gaze on the last sentence.

"The sacred tree gives power to the knights who guard it!"

In the previous battle, Leo had a weapon collision with the Sacred Tree Knight, and it was that collision that caused the strange power of the Sacred Tree Knight's weapon to consume a full 10% of his magic before it was worn out.

The nature of this force is very strange, it does not need to deal damage to the enemy, it only needs to touch, and it will have an effect.

This means that if multiple individuals with this strange power attack Leo at the same time, regardless of whether their attacks cause damage or not, touching Leo will consume Leo's mana.

10% at a time, up to 10 times, to completely reset Leo's magic to zero.

Once he loses his magic power, Leo's combat power will be greatly reduced.

Never fight more than three Sacred Tree Knights who wield this strange power at the same time!

Leo thought silently.

This strange power is called the "power of the sacred tree".

The existence of the power of the sacred tree makes the Sacred Tree Knights extremely useful in dealing with beings who are stronger than them.

All it takes is a few Tree Knights to entangle your opponent, while the rest of the Tree Knights perform ranged attacks, using the power of the Sacred Tree to wear down the enemy's mana, and when their mana is exhausted, they can be easily defeated.

The influence of a hundredfold gravity already makes high-level existences unable to ignore low-level existences, and coupled with the power of the holy tree, the power of individuals in this world will be greatly limited......

Leo's heart was heavy.

Crushing the soul of the Sacred Tree Knight in his hand, in the ethereal soul airflow, Leo felt the brightness of the soul fire increase slightly.

Although it does not reach 0.01, absorbing at most one of these souls will surely give you a 0.01 boost.

The brightness of the soul fire of 19.0 is extremely difficult to improve, even if it is the soul of a weak king, the effect is very weak.

But to Leo's surprise, absorbing the soul of the Sacred Tree Knight, in addition to the increase in the brightness of the soul fire, actually brought an additional skill.

- [Power of the Divine Source Lv.1 (0/100)]

[Power of the Sacred Source Lv.1]: The Sacred Tree grants its Guardian Knight special powers, which can inflict burning damage equal to 10% of the maximum mana value to enemies when attacking.

(The Power of the Sacred Origin, which represents the bond between the Sacred Tree Knight and the Sacred Tree Flvedia, the higher the level of this skill, the less suppressed it will be when approaching the Sacred Tree.) )

——

Looking at the introduction of [Sacred Source Power Lv.1] in front of him, Leo showed a sudden look in his eyes.

Is the power of the Divine Origin......

However, what does the so-called "suppression" refer to?

Leo thought about it for a while, and didn't dwell too much, anyway, as he went deeper, he would eventually understand what "suppression" was.

……

[Sacred Tree Armor] is of little use to Leo, he has always been accustomed to fighting with light armor or even no armor, and although heavy armor can bring defensive blessings, it will lead to a decrease in agility.

Pay for one's whistle.

Therefore, for the [Sacred Tree Armor], Leo's way of dealing with it was very simple, and he directly threw it into the tree hole when he woke up.

After processing things, Leo continued to explore the streets.

There are many tree holes on both sides of the street, and all the way through, there are on average one or two residents of the sacred tree in each tree hole.

Leo easily eliminated it, and after searching about twenty or so tree holes, the soul increase brought by killing the inhabitants of the sacred tree, plus the increase brought by the previous Sacred Tree Knight, increased Leo's soul fire brightness to 19.01.

Although the increase of 0.01 is not much, it does bring an increase in strength.

Just as Leo was about to make the next tree hole in front of him, the low sound of horses' hooves could be heard again in the distance of the street.

Leo was overjoyed.

He prefers the Sacred Tree Knight to the Sacred Tree Rider, who gains little after being killed.

Not only is the soul growth of one of the top fifty Sacred Tree residents, but there is also the additional harvest of [Holy Source Power].

"Winter Winter ......"

As the gray mist surged, a knight of the sacred tree galloped out of it on a warhorse, and unlike the knight of the sacred tree that Leo had encountered earlier, the weapon of the knight was not a spear, but a shield and a sword.

The first time he spotted Leo, the Sacred Tree Knight did not sprint, but quickly picked up something like a horn from his waist and blew it hard.

"Whew-"

A deep voice spread throughout the four fields, and when he heard this voice, Leo's face changed suddenly.

Because as the sound and shadow fell, he faintly heard the sound of many horses' hooves in the distance, and quickly approached this place.

Damn it!

Looking at the knight of the sacred tree who rushed towards him with a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, Leo couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

This thing even "calls friends".

The existence of [Sacred Source Power] greatly increases the danger of the gathered Sacred Tree Knights, and Leo's strength is one-on-one for the Sacred Tree Knights, which has a crushing advantage, but if more than ten Sacred Tree Knights come, then even he can only flee from the wind.

The Sacred Tree Knight in front of you must be dealt with as soon as possible, and then find a place to take refuge.

Leo's heart was awe-inspiring, looking at the Sacred Tree Knight rushing over, his footsteps stepped forward, his body did not retreat, but advanced, and at the same time, the light-chasing sword was instantly unsheathed.

"Aoyi Sword Technique: Lan Feng!"

In the Sacred Tree of Flvedea, due to the extremely strong solidity of space, the Uganishat Sword Technique Lanfeng has lost the ability to penetrate space, but it still has a great blessing on movement speed.

Leo's speed under the normal situation during this period was close to the speed of sound, and with the blessing of the "Arcane Sword Technique: Lan Feng", his speed suddenly broke through the sound barrier.

"Boom-"

The explosion of qi was pulled out behind him, and Leo's body appeared at the side of the galloping Sacred Tree Knight, and the long sword in his hand slashed hard.

"Ding—"

A green shield emerged from the Sacred Tree Knight's body, blocking Leo's sword.

Leo's gaze froze, and in the lightning, he saw that the jewel light of the necklace around the neck of the Sacred Tree Knight had dimmed, and it was obvious that this kind of shield needed to consume the power of the necklace and could not be continuously unfolded.

But no matter what, the appearance of the shield finally made it impossible for Leo to kill the knight of the sacred tree with a single sword.

With a missed sword, Leo kicked the belly of the horse under the crotch of the Sacred Tree Knight, causing it to fall over in a neighing, taking advantage of this opportunity, Leo landed close to him and cut off the head of the Sacred Tree Knight with a single sword.

"Hugh—"

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and a turquoise arrow broke through the layers of air and exploded in front of Leo's eyes.

At the moment of crisis, Leo flashed his head sideways, but because the arrow was too fast, he still couldn't dodge completely, and the skin on his cheek was cut by the arrow.

In the splattering of blood, Leo felt that the magic in his body plummeted by 10% all of a sudden.

In the gray mist in the distance, three Sacred Tree Knights came at a rapid pace, each holding a ranged weapon similar to a crossbow, the first knight was winding the crossbow, and the other two Sacred Tree Knights pressed the crossbow's launcher.

"Hugh! Stop! ”

Prepared, Leo avoided the two arrows and was not injured by them.

Feeling the sound of horses' hooves approaching more and more in the distance, Leo immediately made a decision, and the magic power in his body combined with the sword intent to transform into the power of transcendence, blessed his body, and then ran away.

There are so many Sacred Tree Knights, if they don't run, I'm afraid they will be left behind completely.

With the blessing of the power of transcendence, Leo's normal speed broke through the sound barrier, several points faster than the speed of the Sacred Tree Knight's attack, and about ten minutes later, when the sound of horses' hooves behind him gradually disappeared, Leo rushed into a tree hole on the side of the road, and casually solved the residents of the Holy Tree inside, gasping for breath.

It was the first time since he was promoted to legend that he had experienced the feeling of panting.

"Hoo ......"

Taking a deep breath, Leo sat cross-legged on the ground, thinking about his next plan.

As it stands, the Sacred Tree Knight's classes are complex and varied, ranging from the pure heavy weapon type he first killed, to characters who blow horns like "messengers", as well as ranged units armed with crossbows.

With a variety of troops, it is unexpectedly expected that once the Knights of the Sacred Tree are gathered, the threat will definitely be higher than Leo expected at the beginning.

And the existence of the power of the Holy Source made Leo occupy a huge advantage in the strength of a single body, but he did not dare to face more than one Sacred Tree Knights at the same time.

As a result, the situation is somewhat stalemate.

What to do?

Leo frowned, thinking.

With the blessing of the power of transcendence, although his speed is faster than that of the Sacred Tree Knights, it is only a little faster, and if a large number of Sacred Tree Knights form an encirclement, he may not be able to run away.

This time it was the encirclement that was not formed, and this was the only way to escape, but what about the next time?

I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet.

"Silk ......"

The sound of the breeze blowing came to his ears, and the long sword in Leo's hand instantly unsheathed and slashed behind him.

"Ding!"

As the voice appeared, a semi-illusory slender figure appeared in the originally empty position behind Leo, and the short blades with blood grooves crossed in front of the long sword.

The breeze just now was no different from the ordinary wind, if it was someone else, maybe he wouldn't notice it at all, but Leo's perception of the wind was incomparable to that of ordinary professionals, so the moment the wind appeared, he noticed the strangeness in the wind, so he did not hesitate to make a move.

The long sword pressed against the short blade, Leo's eyes were cold, and the magic power in his body wanted to explode further, completely crushing this guy who suddenly appeared.

"Wait! I have no ill will! Please stop! ”

A hurried voice came from the mouth of the semi-illusory slender figure, Leo's expression remained unchanged, and the long sword blessed with more magic power collapsed the parry of the short blade, and the long sword was horizontally placed across the neck of the semi-illusory figure.
