10. Finally see the black knife
It is also unknown if the prayer of the ashes worked, or if the tomb was indeed in disrepair. The steel needles on the trap begin to break when they touch the shield as gravity presses down.
An azure glow covered the shield, completely preventing the trap from continuing to press down. After staying for half an hour, with a creak, the trap began to rise slowly.
Taking advantage of the gap between the trap's ascent, Ash immediately beckoned to Roger and ran towards the entrance. When the two of them came to the entrance, the trap was restored to its original state. If it weren't for the fact that there were still broken steel needle fragments on the floor, it would seem that the moment of life and death just now was just an illusion.
Ash didn't wait for Roger to speak, and then he was the first to speak. "Don't blame yourself too much, this kind of yin trap, an inexperienced magician like you, will die as many as you come."
"So if you want to live longer, you need to be cautious no matter what happens. There's nothing wrong with being careful. ”
"Moreover, it is my personal choice to rush in and save you, even if I die because of it, for the sake of my friends, I will die without regrets!"
Hearing Ash say this, Roger couldn't speak again. It's just that I secretly made up my mind in my heart that if the ashes are in trouble, I will sacrifice my life to save them.
"As a magician, why do you remember the magic of shield defense, I remember the last time I met you, you didn't know this trick?"
"Moreover, the mage's memory space should be precious, shouldn't it be focused on attacking magic?"
Ash's sudden question made Roger a little embarrassed, and after a smile, Roger began to explain.
"With a shield to defend, mainly because it can better assist you."
"When I was in Stoneville City before, I found that the sword and shield are your best weapons, especially the shield, which is almost impenetrable to defense."
"The shield defense spell can continue to increase the strength of the shield, and it can also resist magic attacks, and the weapon of the black knife is very deadly."
After listening to Roger's explanation, Ash spread his hands. "You see, wasting precious memory spaces also has to increase the strength of my equipment, so what I did for you, you can also afford it."
After the two finished talking, they calmed down the emotions that were stimulated by the trap props just now, and began to slowly look at the room. It's another dead end, is the clue broken here?
Although Roger still suspected that there were phantom walls in this room, the time for the trap to fall was not enough for him to search carefully.
When he was at a loss, Ash thought of another solution. Since it is a gravity trap, it will be triggered as soon as an adult weight steps on it, so why not trigger it again and observe it carefully.
Ash retrieved some gravel from the hole in the knife and threw it all over the gravity trap. Sure enough, the trap was triggered again, and Roger and Ash stood at the door to observe, and it was only then that the two suddenly realized.
It turns out that this so-called gravity trap is not the steel needle of the ceiling pressed down, when people step on it, the floor is slowly rising. Because the walls around are exactly the same, coupled with fear and panic, there is the illusion that the ceiling is pressing down.
Knowing all this, a new path naturally emerged, hidden beneath the floor. Taking advantage of the gap on the floor that had not yet recovered, Ash jumped first, followed by Roger.
Looking at the gravity trap above his head that had been restored again, Roger couldn't help but curse. "The designer of this tomb has done all the bad things!" Ash is also the first time to encounter this kind of trap in the game, and he also complained. "Designer, no heart."
Scolding and scolding, venting and venting, the pace of the two is still unswerving. This time, there were finally no traps and traps, and through the long corridor, you could already see the figure of the black knife wandering in the hall at the end of the corridor.
The enemy has appeared, and the Ash decisively drops his longbow and crossbow. Left hand shield, right hand sword, no other superfluous items. Roger also prepared a shield defense spell at this time, and after blessing the ashes, he began to prepare the next spell.
Now that everything was ready, Ash did not hesitate to charge. By the time Ash stepped into the hall, the Black Knife had already spotted the intruder. Directly bent over, and the figure had disappeared into thin air.
Ash did not panic when he encountered this situation, Rogier had already carefully introduced the special skills of the black knife, they were all assassins, and stealth was expected. So Roger's second magic is illumination.
It turns out that when Roger was preparing to investigate the night of the Black Knife conspiracy, he learned that the Black Knife could be invisible, and only the Sentinel Torch could shine on his figure. However, the Sentinel Torch was lost for many years, and Roger had to improve his illumination technique.
This is not nonsense, because Sir Hundred has already succeeded.
Sir Wisdom attaches the True Eye effect to his weapons, allowing all shadow units to hide. This inspired Roger to make a fuss about illumination.
As the light of the illumination filled the hall, a blue mark appeared in the air behind the ashes. Before Roger could open his mouth to remind, the ashes suddenly rolled forward, dodging the sneak attack of the black knife. The Black Knife also found that his plan had failed, and stealth was useless, and he did not waste his physical strength, and went straight to Roger. It seems that he also knows that the best choice is to kill the magician first.
How could the ashes let the black knife slip through, the swords were already raised in both hands, and the fire storm was taking shape. The furious, scorching breath made the black knife feel mortally dangerous, and he hurriedly dodged to the left, the fire storm grazing his body and annihilating in front of him. Although this blow did not attack the Black Knife, it completely discouraged the Black Knife's intention to continue in the direction of Roger.
Ash continued to approach with his shield, and although the hall was not small, the space for movement was gradually compressed by the ash. Behind him, Roger waved his wand, 4 Kalia swords, formed in the air, and shot towards the black knife, followed by 4 Kalia swords.
At this time, the pressure is given to the black knife, the ash defense is impenetrable, and the rear of Roger continues to output, once the black knife wants to raid, the fire storm will inevitably start to lock. Seeing that he had been forced into a corner, the black knife couldn't take care of it too much, so he could only fight to the death. Immediately put on a squatting position, and then suddenly gathered strength, jumped high, and the black blade in his hand glowed with scarlet light.
At this time, Ash didn't give him time to continue performing, and suddenly jumped up from the ground, and the stabbing sword in his hand was thrown out by him, and the air was cut. With a "poof", the black knife that was still stagnant in the air, as if it was shot by a giant's big bow, its body was deflected by the inertia of the sword, and finally it was nailed to the ceiling, and it was impossible to live.
Even so, Ash did not rush forward to investigate, but instructed Roger to shoot four more Kalia swords, and only after confirming that the black knife was really dead did he pull out his own bayone. The battle of the ashes has taught Roger a vivid lesson, what is prudent.
Interrupt the enemy's ultimate, and tentatively mend the knife after death, who knows if there is a second phase of the black knife, or it is better to nip the danger in the bud. That kind of behavior of watching the enemy wait for the CD is really stupid.
With the death of the Black Knife, the entire cemetery has been cleared, and now it is time to distribute the loot. Ash was not polite, and went up and took off the armor of the black knife, which he was already greedy for when he first saw it. Made of thin unknown metal, the surface glows with a bluish-gray light, and Roger's magic can also be effectively defended. The most important thing is that this armor is handsome.
It's rare to encounter something that is heartwarming to the ashes, and Roger also said that he can take it casually, and he is a magician himself, and he can't use it. As for the black knife dagger, the ashes are not interested, and the dagger is only suitable for assassination, not for head-on combat, so it is better to hand it over to Roger and send it to the round table for consignment.
Roger agreed, but he had to go back first and extract the black knife brand from the black knife dagger.
"Black knife brand, what?" The ashes are puzzled.
"That's what we're doing this mission."
"Isn't this mission for you to become Fiya's companion?"
"This, this is just by the way, the black knife brand is my purpose." Roger replied with a bit of hesitation.
Seeing Roger's embarrassment, Ash didn't tease much, but continued to ask about the [Black Knife Brand].
"This black knife brand is the murder weapon that killed [Golden Godwin]."
"It is said that an unknown being stole the [Death of Destiny] and then performed a ritual, and created the [Black Knife Brand], and then the Black Knife Organization held the [Black Knife Brand] and assassinated the [Golden Godwin]."
"Although everyone knows that the Black Knife Organization is the murderer, it is still confusing who is behind the scenes."
Roger's explanation made Ash even more confused.
"What is [Destiny's Death]?"
Looking at Ash's curious look, Roger had no choice but to sit down on the ground, ready to give him a good science popularization.
"According to ancient legends, there are some local powerhouses in the continent of Elden, and they are all in charge of some of their own laws, and they also have their own believers."
"However, when the Golden Tree descended, it began to fight everywhere, and in the end only the Golden Law became orthodox."
"According to legend, the [Death of Destiny] was the power of a certain queen, and as a result, she was defeated, and [Death of Destiny] was also taken away and sealed in a place that no one knew."
"According to the propaganda of the Divine Skin Apostle, [Destiny Death] can hunt gods, but since [Destiny Death] was sealed, the Black Yan of the Divine Skin Apostle has lost the ability to kill gods."
"So the death of the eldest prince involves many forces, the Black Knife Organization is from the Eternal City, and it is relatively close to the goddess Marika, and the theft of [Destiny's Death] is unknown to anyone, and the godskin apostles still want to restore their former glory."
"Now that you have obtained the [Black Knife Brand], you can unravel it first, who stole the [Death of Destiny]."
After saying this, Roger was also more excited, and the mystery that had been silent for decades finally made a breakthrough.
"Then, let's go back, go back to the round table, you crack the [Black Knife Brand], and I'll see if Rodrica adapts to her new life."
