Chapter 197: The Golden Tree

Nezumi?

Seeing these rat people, everyone immediately entered a state of tension, but soon they realized that these rat people were not the same as the ones they saw outside.

How so......... They look cleaner and don't seem so brutal, and they have white fur that looks a little cute.

Let's put it this way, if Skaven looks as dirty, ugly, and disgusting as rats in the gutter sewers, then these rats feel like those guinea pigs in the lab.

Not to mention anything else, it's still pretty clean and beautiful.

"Don't get any closer!"

"If you get closer, we're going to bite you!"

The appearance of the bluff is also speechless.

"Humph!"

Seeing these rat men, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, and then took a step forward. At this time, these rat people also trembled in fright, raised their heads to look at Duanmu Huai——— and then the next moment, they let out a frightened cry, turned around and quickly flew away into the jungle.

"That's the nezumi? Bambi doesn't think they're dangerous at all?"

Bambi was also lying on Duanmu Huai's shoulder at this time, looking curiously at the fleeing rat people. It's no wonder that Bambi thinks this way, as they don't feel the same way compared to the nezumi that Duanmu and Lorena had met in Mordheim before. They are shorter than the Skaven Rats, and although they also look like rats, they are not as disgusting as the Skaven Rats, of course, this is just appearance, and Duanmu Locust will not trust a group of rats so easily.

And......... Maybe these rats have something to do with the Skaven rats?

After all, there are different theories about how the nezumi came to be, and there is no other evidence other than the origin of a similar legend. And although I don't know when this fragment is, it is certain that this place definitely appeared earlier than the Skaven people, and these rats are the origin of the Skaven people.

"Anyway, let's move on."

Duanmu Huai glanced around, and then spoke.

Under the leadership of Duanmu Huai, the group walked towards the towering tree in the distance, although I don't know what place this is, but it is certain that the huge tree is definitely not ordinary, as long as you go there, you should be able to find something more or less.

Of course, along the way, Duanmu Huai and others also encountered a lot of animals——— it seems that this forest is indeed a paradise for animals, all kinds of animals are everywhere, but there are no primitive species such as dinosaurs in "Journey to the Center of the Earth", but there are more animals such as squirrels, hedgehogs, moles, etc., but they are all aware of the fear aura on Duanmu Huai, almost as soon as Duanmu Huai appears, they run away and disappear.

"It's really fun here."

Perhaps because they didn't encounter any enemies along the way, the girls gradually relaxed, curiously looking at the scenery around them. For them, this kind of underground natural jungle appearance is probably the first time they have seen it, and it is no wonder that these girls show such expressions.

"Ah, really, Bambi wanted to play with the birds here."

Watching another group of birds perched on the branches spread their wings and quickly leave, Bambi pouted unhappily.

"As long as the owner isn't here, those little animals shouldn't be afraid."

At this time, Ogis also put forward a pertinent opinion as always, and stabbed Duanmu Huai by the way.

"We're not here for tourism."

Duanmu Huai patted Okis's head and replied angrily.

"That's fine, but it can save a lot of trouble!"

As for whether there will be small animals close to him, Duanmu Huai doesn't care, it's a big deal to find a small animal's soul card in the future?

As they spoke, the group also walked through the jungle and came to a grassland.

"Ah, Knight, there seems to be one over there

Buildings."

At this time, Lorena seemed to have discovered something, and hurriedly stretched out her hand and pointed towards the hillside not far away, Duanmu Huai followed the direction of her finger, and sure enough, she saw that on the hillside not far away, there was a building like a monastery, so everyone hurriedly turned around and walked there.

"Winter ............ Winter ..............."

However, just as they were approaching the bottom of the hillside, suddenly, with a few loud noises, they saw a knight appear in front of them. He held a halberd in one hand, a huge shield in the other, and was wearing golden armor all over his body, and even the war horse under him was wearing full body armor.

Well, if nothing else, it looks like it's rich.

"Ah, we can ask him how to go."

Seeing this knight, Duanmu Huai also stepped forward, and then raised his hand.

"Hey, bro.........

However, before Duanmu Huai's words were finished, he saw that the golden knight waved his war halberd reluctantly, and actually drove the war horse like this, rushing towards him without warning! I saw him come to Duanmu Huai's body, and suddenly pulled the reins, and the front hooves of the war horse in front of him jumped high, and then the golden knight swung down with a halberd and slammed directly at Duanmu Huai's head!

Depend on! If you don't talk about martial arts, you will fight when you come up! Are you a knight?!

In the face of the Golden Knight's attack, Duanmu Huai was startled, but he did not retreat because of this, although this Golden Knight is very burly and majestic, but Duanmu Huai's height is not covered, in fact, he is almost as tall as the Golden Knight on a war horse just standing there.

So in the face of the Golden Knight's attack, Duanmu Huai also roared angrily, rushed forward directly, and put one shoulder on the belly of the war horse with its body held high, and directly flipped it to the ground along with the Golden Knight above!

However, the golden knight obviously didn't cover it, he rolled directly on the spot, dodged the overturned war horse, and then swept it with a halberd, hitting Duanmu Huai again——— and then the halberd he swung was directly grabbed by Duanmu Huai in his hand.

"You don't listen to people, do you?"

Duanmu Huai grabbed the halberd in one hand, stepped forward and kicked out at the Golden Knight——— the moment the Golden Knight flew upside down as if he had been hit by a trebuchet, and fell heavily to the ground. But even so, the golden knight still did not give up, but tried to stand up and continue to attack.

But at this time, Duanmu Huai had already stretched out his hands, grabbed the golden knight's war horse, and smashed it down on him!

"Winter!

!」

The heavy war horse smashed directly on the golden knight's body, and the next moment, only the war horse was heard to wail, and then it turned into dust along with the golden knight under him and disappeared into the air.

Only the halberd was still stuck in the ground, showing that a battle had just passed.

"This......... What the hell is going on?"

At this time, the girls also gathered around, looking at the scene in front of them in surprise, not knowing how to react at all.

"Looks like there's something wrong with this place."

Duanmu Huai clapped his hands, picked up the halberd next to him, looked at it, and then showed it to Lorena and them.

"Have you ever seen anything like this?"

If it were the same era, I would have heard something about it.

"This......... I'm sorry, Lord Knight."

Lorena looked at the halberd carefully and shook her head.

"I've never heard of a place like this underground."

"I don't know ......... either."

Audrey also gave an answer, as the aristocratic daughter of Manalia, she can be regarded as knowledgeable, and even she doesn't know it.........

"Ah, Bambi seems to have heard from Her Majesty!"

However, in the end, it was Bambi who gave the answer.

"Have you heard?"

"Hmm!"

Faced with Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Bambi nodded vigorously.

"Madara

I remember that Her Majesty said that there is a very powerful underground world somewhere, and I heard that there is a golden tree in it.........

"I guess that thing didn't run away."

Duanmu Locust raised his head and looked at the huge tree in the distance again, exuding golden brilliance, and from a distance, it did look like it was made of gold.

All the fragments of the world are the reflection of the remnants of the things destroyed in reality, so that is to say, the world has been destroyed in reality, so how ——— they are destroyed?

What does this have to do with those Skaven rat people?

Duanmu Huai thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Anyway, let's move on."

After defeating the inexplicable Golden Knight, Duanmu Huai and his party walked up the hill to the monastery, but unfortunately, it looked like the building had been abandoned. Although the front looks fairly intact, the ceiling, roof, and walls inside are mostly dilapidated, with only a few pillars remaining.

The entire ruins were rightfully empty.

"We'll rest here today."

Duanmu Huai looked at the time displayed on the helmet, although this is underground, but it seems that there is a certain amount of time, at least now the light above his head is starting to become dark. This makes the golden tree look more like some kind of signature illumination in the distance that shines brightly at night.

Lorena and Bambi didn't object, although they didn't do anything along the way, but the previous rat incident alone made them tired enough, and they also sat down to rest at this time.

But at this moment, I saw Duanmu Huai turn his head and look at the bushes next to him.

"After following all the way, it's time for you to come out."

Then, he asked in a low voice.

Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, the girls were startled, only Ogie still sat there reading without saying anything, while the bushes shook for a moment, and then, a petite figure walked out of it.

It was a petite girl, dressed in a princess-like dress with armor attached to it, and a thin sword in her hand——— most striking of course, the mouse-like semi-round ears on the girl's head, and the long, mouse-like tail protruding from behind her.

"Hello, uninvited intruder."

Staring at Duanmu Huai, the girl spoke.

"I'm the princess of the Spirit Rat Clan, Mirfi, and I can ask you why you came to this cursed place?"
