Chapter Seventy-One: The First Strongest Under the Stars

Hussein was definitely not a good companion by any measure.

Du Wei had been with him for a day. They had everything ready, and Dewey chopped off some branches with a knife, made a suggested snowboard, and put the unconscious Dardanelles on the skateboard - you don't expect Hussein to drag the skateboard, that's impossible. This knight himself was injured, and he didn't know the texture of his body, Du Wei couldn't help but feel like vomiting after just a few glances!

Those wounds were terrible! In many places, the flesh was turned open, revealing the white bones inside! There were also some wounds, which smelled of burning, and were only tightly wrapped in layers of cloth.

The most terrifying thing is the position of Hussein's lower abdomen, there is a scar the size of a black sè's fist in that place, I don't know what it was used to hurt it, probably magic or something, the circle of muscles around the wound has completely turned into black sè. Even those black sè muscles were still slowly squirming, healing minute by minute...... But while healing, there was a subtle popping sound in the muscles!

The wound healed again and again, and burst open again and again! One can imagine the level of pain this is.

Hussein's bandaging of the wound only followed by an explanation that the wound had been left to him by the inquisitor of the temple, a kind of magical corrosion. Not even holy water can cure it. To be cured. It takes a great mage to spend a lot of mana to perform top-level healing spells on him.

The strength of the inquisitor of the temple was extraordinary, and the wound left behind almost cost Hussein's life. If it weren't for the fact that Hussein's strength was already close to that of the Paladin, he could already use his fighting spirit to heal his wounds to a certain extent......

But in this way, it caused great pain to the knight. He had to heal the wound every minute and every second, and the wound itself was corroding and bursting every minute under the magic damage.

In this way, a delicate balance is formed, but Hussein is in a "fresh pain" every moment.

A man, with a terrible scar, walked in this ice and snow for so long. endured pain that was enough to break people all the time...... Hussein, on the other hand, had a cold face, and he couldn't even snort except for the occasional glimmer of pain in his eyes. When walking, I also try to straighten my waist as much as possible.

This person is not ordinary tenacity.

In this case, he is a little short-tempered, and it is understandable.

Even in his previous life, when Du Wei occasionally had a toothache. He would also be in a violent mood, not to mention that this knight was suffering from that level of pain and torture at all times, and he could still endure the collapse of the gods. It's already remarkable.

Dewey tried not to mess with this powder keg-like fellow, and he silently pulled the sleigh and followed the knight through the snow.

They went north along the Great Round Lake, and the further north they went, the stronger and stronger the wind became, and Du Wei had already erected Pi Zhen's collar. There was also a fur hat, which blocked most of the face, revealing only a pair of eyes, but it was still so blown by the wind that it was almost impossible to open it.

He couldn't even speak, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was immediately a wind of light that swept snowflakes into his mouth.

It's almost entirely instinctive. Du Wei walked completely behind Hussein, whose tall body blocked Du Wei a little from the wind.

Walking in the snow is extremely physically demanding. The two took two breaks in between, and Du Wei ran to the side with a knife to cut down those trees to make a fire to keep warm. Hussein didn't say a word, he just sat silently with his eyes closed. There is occasionally a hint of luck on the body.

Du Wei knew that this knight was suppressing his injuries with his fighting spirit. At the same time heating.

It was a kind of drinking to quench his thirst, and even if Du Wei was not a doctor, he was a learned magic apothecary after all, and he could see that the injuries on this knight's body were very bad, and his physical condition was on the verge of collapse. Forcibly suppressing the pain with such a fighting spirit can only endure it for a while, but it will make the injury continue to worsen.

But what about that?

"Why don't you use holy water?" Du Wei sighed, "I still have a little here, which the old guy left when he left." ”

Hussein hugged the stick, closed his eyes and said coldly: "I can't touch the holy water." I am a traitor to the temple, and I am cursed. The holy water of the temple is indeed a good thing to heal, but because of the curse on my body, the holy water will not heal me, but my skin will corrode when it touches the holy water! ”

Du Wei thought for a while, and found some medicines from his arms, some of which were left by the old magician, and some of which were some magic plants that Du Wei had collected on the way to walk in the frozen forest with the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group these days, and the potions he had simply made.

Although I hate this guy, after all, I'm a companion now, and in this hellish place, if you encounter danger, I'm afraid you have to count on this guy to protect yourself. Du Wei took out some of his own wound medicine.

Hussein's face was a little kinder, but his tone was still cold: "Thank you, but no need." ”

He returned the drugs to Du Wei and continued to close his eyes and recuperate.

"Why?" Du Wei frowned, "This is what I configured, it is synthesized with the powder of frost moss and Chikel grass juice, which can heal wounds, and this is the only wound medicine that can be found in this forest." ”

Hussein opened his eyes: "No, I said it, thank you, but no." ”

After a pause, the knight finally added: "The injury on my body was broken by the ninth-level knight with his fighting spirit, and this injury carries the power of the opponent's fighting spirit, and it is not an ordinary medicine that can heal." Unless there is a powerful mage who uses top-notch healing techniques to dispel those vindictive spirits and curses. I can recover, otherwise, your medication will only add to my pain.

Du Wei was silent.

Think about it...... Think about the experience of this knight. He killed the two Knight Captains of the Holy Knights of the Temple!Two of the Temple's top knights, and a Presiding Judge! He also added an eighth-level knight, and several high-ranking Holy Knights!

It was a frighteningly glorious result, but it's not hard to imagine how badly he was injured after so many terrible battles!

"Perhaps, this will be of some use to you. Du Wei suddenly touched it in his arms for a while, but he found something like a white fruit.

This thing looks like an ice lump. But it is covered with fine lines, and when you hold it in your hand, you can feel a cool feeling along the skin, and there is also a faint, faint fragrance...... It's like the ground mint leaf that Du Wei knew in his previous life.

But this thing isn't much fun. For many people, it's scarier than demons!

The name of this thing is:

Ice Berries!

It's the kind of stuff that can be used to make psychedelics, like drugs. (Solskjaer once considered whether he could use this kind of stuff as a raw material to stimulate people's jīng powers.) But then I gave up).

"Ice berries?" the knight looked surprised.

"Yes, ice berries. Du Wei smiled: "This kind of thing is hard to find. I also stumbled upon one on the road. You should know this thing, there's a psychedelic component...... However, if you take a small amount of ground, it can be used to relieve pain. You can try it, bite a little bite, and take it. It can reduce a little bit of your pain. ”

Just ...... Opium is the same. Du Wei added in his heart that in the world of his previous life, opium and morphine were both drugs, but they were also used as painkillers.

There is no such thing as a good thing, the key is how you use it.

Hussein is a place of knowledge, and this time he did not refuse. Perhaps it was the unrelenting pain of these days that had tormented him to the point that he couldn't stand it, so he took the ice berry, gently picked it open with his fingernails, and put it in his mouth......

This magical thing is really useful, not more than a moment. The knight's brow stretched slightly, and he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. I opened my eyes, with a hint of relief, and my voice was much kinder: "Thank you...... Sure enough, I felt a little more comfortable. This damn pain has been tormenting me for days and I can't sleep. ”

After a pause, Hussein glanced at Du Wei: "You also have research on magical apothexology?few magicians now take the time to study magical apothecary, most magicians will put jīng power on magic experiments, and apothecary ...... Only those who can't learn magic will do it. ”

Du Wei smiled: "Then you are right, I am a magic apothecary. In fact, I don't even have a mage's qualification. ”

Hussein didn't feel strange, and said lightly: "Oh, then what is the relationship between you and that old immortal?"

Old immortal? Du Wei thought it was funny.

"What about you, what do you have to do with him?" Du Wei did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

Hussein was silent, he thought for a moment, and said lightly: "It's nothing, it's just that he can barely be regarded as my senior brother, and our strength comes from the same teacher." ”

Brother?

Du Wei couldn't help but laugh and said, "I heard that you are only thirty years old, right? That old guy is probably hundreds of years old...... You ......"

"No, I'm thirty-one years old this Chinese New Year's Eve. The old guy...... God knows how old he is! Hussein didn't seem to want to talk about this topic: "He and I are only brothers in name, but I don't really like him." After a pause, he stopped talking about the subject, and said, "What about you? You don't even look fifteen, who are you, and why are you here?"

"It's not that I didn't reach the age of fifteen, but I didn't even reach the age of fourteen. Du Wei shrugged his shoulders: "I'm from the Rollin family." Why did you come here...... You're going to ask the old guy this question. He took me. ”

"The ...... of the Rollin family" Hussein thought for a moment, and suddenly smiled, he actually really smiled, this guy with a murderous face, with joy in his eyes. Looking at Du Wei: "Ah! I think I've heard of you." You're in a famous place. The idiot son of the Rollin family, a few years ago, the aristocratic circles of Dìdū were talking about you. ”

"You've heard of it, too. Du Wei didn't care about the idiot's claims.

"Yes. Hussein seemed to be immersed in his memory: "Knight Captain Luke's uncle was a nobleman, and I was once invited to his uncle's banquet...... At that time, Luke told me that the biggest news of the recent time was that the son of the Count of Raymond was an idiot, and that his uncle had planned to marry the Rollins, but when he heard the news, he was too frightened to mention it. I remember Luke he ......"

At this, Hussein suddenly closed his mouth. A hint of haze flashed in his eyes.

Du Wei didn't dare to say anything, just looked at the knight quietly.

Luke ...... Killed by me. ”

After a long time, Hussein suddenly whispered this.

There was a hint of indescribable, deep sorrow in his cold voice, and a trace of deep pain flashed in the knight's eyes, and he shook his head: "Yes, Luke was killed by me, and Knight Captain Kelly." They all died by my sword. ”

Du Wei didn't speak. Hussein, however, had already turned his gaze into the distance, and his voice seemed to be saying to himself: "Oh...... Master Luke. Master Kelly...... And Gofit, poor Gofit, I'm the same age as me, we trained together in the Temple when we were kids, and we passed the test together to enter the Holy Knights, and he was like my brother...... My brother is the same...... But I pierced his heart with my own hands. Let me think. Who else...... Oh, and Stella, that enthusiastic Southerner, him

He always had a strong southern accent when he prayed, and we all laughed at him when we were kids, and I cut him in two with a sword......!

Du Wei was suddenly surprised to see it. A tear slowly rolled down Hussein's cheek.

"All of them are my friends, my brothers, my comrades-in-arms, we train together, we learn martial arts together. Sparring together, riding together...... Now they are dead by my sword......" Hussein's eyes began to grow wild. He suddenly shouted loudly, "Why!!!Do you *** know why!!"

He stood up suddenly, staring at Du Wei with bloodshot eyes, and roared, "Do you know why!!!!"

“...... I do not know. Du Wei frowned, he realized that something was wrong with the knight's jīng god state, and cautiously stepped back a little.

"Because...... Hahahaha......" Hussein suddenly laughed unconsciously, and his laughter had a hint of frivolity: "Because of His Majesty the Pope!***, His Majesty the Pope said, 'Oh, this is God's will!', and then he wants us to shed blood, he wants us to die!!!

"Knight Hussein. Du Wei said in a deep voice: "You are too excited, sit down first." ”

Hussein gave Du Wei a deep look, his eyes were still very strange, as if with a hint of ...... Disorder.

However, he still sat down, and this action made Du Wei a little relieved.

"Hey, boy, do you know why I was hunted down by the Temple? Why did I become a traitor to the Temple? I, Hussein! Since I was thirteen years old, everyone in the Order has regarded me as the pride of the Temple! They think that I am the greatest knight of a hundred years! They even think that I will definitely become the head of the Holy Knights in the future! Only a paladin can become the leader! The Holy Knights have not had a leader for a hundred years! But I will definitely become a paladin! I will be the leader of the Holy Knights of the Temple! Haha! But now, I'm being hunted down like a mouse!

Listening to Hussein's tone gradually becoming violent, his eyes became more and more disordered, and Du Wei's heart gradually became uneasy!

Suddenly, his heart moved!

Oops!

Look at the ice berry in the knight's hand that has been bitten!

Du Wei understands what the problem is!

Ice Berries!!I'm afraid I'm taking more Ice Berries!The knight's jīng god is disturbed by this magic plant, just like the jīng god chaos that people get after taking drugs!

Syllable!

With a crisp sound, Du Wei found that the stick held by the knight had been crushed in his palm!

"You know what...... If everything could be done all over again...... I'm not going to go into that damn sanctuary! damn it...... Templar!!" Hussein gritted his teeth.

Templars?

Du Wei knew the name, and the Sanctuary was the place in the temple where the badges of the deceased Holy Knights were stored.

All the dead Holy Knights, their coats of arms are stored in the Sanctuary and blessed by the gods.

"Just the year before last, before I became the third Knight Captain...... His Majesty, according to tradition, asked me to be the guardian of the Templar for one year. Hussein's voice was muffled, and his jīng state of mind was completely lost in his memory:

"Templar Keeper. This is the process that every Knight Master of the Holy Order goes through before taking office. When I was awarded the title of Templar Guardian, everyone knew that I would be a Knight Chief...... However, I didn't expect that to be the beginning of my nightmare!!!The beginning of my nightmare!" Hussein burst out laughing, his smile in the snow and ice, with the wind, the sound of the voice oscillating like a ghost......

"Boy, do you know who the most powerful and greatest Holy Knight in the history of the Temple is?

“...... Belch...... Is that you?" Du Wei replied cautiously, he felt that the knight had gone crazy, and his jīng god was a little abnormal at the moment, so it was better not to anger him.

"I—what am I! I'm just an ant compared to that man!" Hussein's tone suddenly changed to reverence:

"In the centuries...... No, even for a thousand years! There have been countless strong people on the continent, what is the first warrior in the continent, the strongest knight in the continent, the strongest magician in the continent, and the first magician in the continent...... And so on and so forth, for hundreds of years, there have been many, many such strong people...... But there is only one title, and in the past thousand years, only one person has won it!"

"What title?"

Hussein took a deep breath, and a sickly red appeared on his cheeks: "The strongest under the stars!"

The strongest under the stars?

This title is indeed more majestic than the number one samurai in the continent.

Du Wei licked his tongue: "Who is this person?"

"This man is a former Holy Knight, and his Holy Knight Badge is stored in the Sanctuary. Hussein shook his head: "Unfortunately, it has become my nightmare." ”

Du Wei had already whetted his appetite, and he carefully used soft words to guide Hussein to say: "This man is ......"

"His Majesty, the Founding Emperor of the Great Roland Empire, the Founder of the Great Empire...... The only person in the millennium who is qualified to be the number one powerhouse under the stars...... Aragorn Rolland, whose strength is such that no one can replicate him, because he is not only the top number one magician, but also the strongest knight of his time......" After a pause, Hussein added:

"Holy Knight! His Majesty the Founding Emperor, who once joined the Holy Knights! He has the Holy Knight Badge, which is stored in the Sanctuary! That badge has become my ...... Nightmare!"
