Chapter 249: Happiness and Sorrow

The new knight was just a civilian a year ago, and in a year, even if there is an increase in physical fitness, it will not be too exaggerated, on the other hand, the young man has made sufficient preparations for the counter-kill, so the backstab around the back was completed so smoothly.

With a pain in his heart, the knight looked at the tip of the knife that emerged from his chest, and his eyeballs almost bulged.

"You, how dare you ......"

Before the knight could finish speaking, the boy kicked him in the back and drew his knife. The wound bloomed, and in an instant, blood rained all over the sky. The knight staggered forward a few steps and fell to his knees, his face now like gold paper.

The boy is also half-kneeling on the ground, and his detached state allows him to easily find the weakness of the other party, and then kill him with one blow, although it is powerful, but at the same time, the burden on his body should not be underestimated. However, at this time, he still has some strength compared to the knights.

Taking a breath, he braced himself on his knees and moved to the knight, who was trying to cover his wounds. He crouched down and came face to face with the knight, whose face was full of resentment and fear.

"In my hometown, there is a saying called murder, and empty explanations may not make you understand it, so let's give an example. The young man buried his head in wiping the more shiny and sharp kitchen knife in his hand, and chatted with his friends as if he was talking lightly, "It's like telling you now, you were just a nameless commoner like me last year, and then, you became a so-called aristocratic lord, and you can enjoy the superiority of others, but unfortunately, such a good day, you only tasted a sweetness, just because you are just a commoner, you have no chance to enjoy it." You were once ordinary, but you died so silently, and in the end, what are you? No, you are nothing. With your concept, your life is in vain. ”

After the young man finished speaking, he wiped the knife in his hand clean. He picked up his broadsword, threw away the rag he had brought with him to wrap his knife and wipe it, and turned and left.

In the dappled moonlight, the knight's stiff body froze like a wax figure. A bloodstained rag covered his head, obscuring his countenance, and only through the holes could he see a pair of round eyes.

......

Walking in the wilderness, the young man felt a trace of regret in his heart, and the armor had not yet been taken off. It's just that it was not far from the main army at that time, and it was too late to have time, so he only picked up the broadsword. Thinking of this now, the boy couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"People, it's really greedy, no one is an exception. ”

However, according to his original character, he was not so greedy, and the cruel act of tossing others before they died was not something that he could have done before. These thoughts and behaviors are already about to break through their own reason and bottom line, which is very abnormal.

Is it the environment that changes people? or is it ...... Another way to say it?

The young man stopped, put down the broadsword in his hand, took out the kitchen knife in his arms, put it in the moonlight, and looked at it carefully.

All the abnormal changes in myself started from getting this knife.

This knife was familiar to him, after all, he had used the furniture for more than half a year, and he had cleaned up a stubborn stain that was difficult to remove. But now that he was looking back at the knife with a greatly changed appearance, a stronger and stronger sense of strangeness emerged in his heart.

It's a witch, right?

He immediately thought of this, and it was hard for him not to think about it, after all, the knife he had found at the scene of the witch's murder.

With a hint of vigilance in his heart, he tore a strip of cloth from his clothes and wrapped it around the handle of the knife, and carried the strange kitchen knife in one hand through a strip of cloth.

After doing all this, he picked up his broadsword and was about to hit the road, but suddenly his figure flickered, and he had to stop where he was.

Here it is, the third memory, the memory of the dead knight.

The human mind is much more complex than that of ordinary animals, and correspondingly, the memory is more complex. Rubbing his head, which was a little dizzy and swollen because of the momentary discomfort, the young man eliminated all the subjective thoughts that were useless to himself in this memory, and then found the most valuable part of his current self.

That's a set of cultivation methods called the Knight Advanced Method.,This guy just got it when he was promoted to a knight not long ago.,I haven't practiced much.,Now it's cheap.。

As a new knight, that guy's vision is not much bigger than him, so apart from this set of advanced methods, he has no other valuable new discoveries.

After retrieving his memory, he immediately studied this advanced method with all his heart and soul as soon as he thought of the exaggerated strength of the high-level knight.

The knight's advanced method is divided into three parts, breathing, forging the body and medicinal bath, which is similar to the traditional Chinese martial arts in the previous life.

Breathing, as the name suggests, is to stimulate the potential of the human body through a special breathing rhythm, and the same is true for body training, which is complementary to each other.

The medicated bath is used to remove dark injuries caused by exercise and repair muscle strain. After all, this set of knight advancement methods is not superior, and there are many drawbacks.

As the old saying goes, the poor are rich and martial, and this is no exception to another world.

After figuring out this set of advanced methods, the heat in my heart also cooled down.

Breathing and forging the body are fine, this is not a clever method, it is not difficult to learn, the key is the medicinal bath. If you want to obtain those precious medicinal materials, it is time-consuming and laborious to rely on one person, you have to integrate into the human society of this world, and with the help of various channels, you can improve a little efficiency, and the most convenient channel is to serve the upper nobles, so as to obtain the rations they distribute, and the rations include the materials used as medicinal baths.

But herein comes the problem.

Killing a knight, after gaining the knight's memory, he deeply understood the nature of this matter - killing a nobleman as a commoner is challenging the authority of the entire aristocratic class, and it will be punished by capital punishment wherever it is placed, which is not just a murder case.

Join the lords, and the next second will be sent to the gallows. Don't even think about it.

What's worse is that the rulers of the vast majority of human societies in this world are either nobles or the Holy See.

And what about the Holy See? He did not feel that he could alone be worthy of the intimacy between the Holy See and the lords, even though the lords were mostly vassals of the Holy See. Therefore, let alone just returning to the rule of the Holy See, even if he joins the Holy See and becomes a clergyman, I am afraid that I will not escape death in the end.

Besides, joining the Holy See can learn a high level of divine art, so what's the use of him still needing this low-level knight advanced method?

After thinking about it for a while and returning to the original point, he suddenly found that the originally precious cultivation method had turned out to be a piece of chicken ribs that were tasteless and discarded.

Worst of all, he also found that he had just started his journey to the Atlas from Hardmode to Nightmare Mode just because he killed a mob - it was difficult for human society to integrate, and the wild where Warcraft was rampant was extremely dangerous, and there was no place in the world, was it Nightmare Mode?

As for not regretting killing the knight later, the situation was urgent, and he didn't bother to consider whether there was any other more appropriate way to deal with it, and thinking about it now was purely an afterthought, and it was of no help to the current situation.

Fortunately, there is still a golden finger to get memories. This is a world of extraordinary power, so this must be a world of great power and individual strength. He believes that as long as he gives himself a little chance, he can definitely easily get out of the current predicament.

He was so engrossed that when a broadsword was placed on his shoulder, the boy realized that he was in a desperate situation before he knew it.

Oops, forgetting that he is still just an ordinary person, and he doesn't even know how to hide the traces of escape, so he stands in place in a daze so boldly, and now it's a big deal.

"Turn around. ”

The deep voice of the high-ranking knight sounded behind him, and the young man turned around honestly and saw that the other party was squinting at the broadsword in his hand, so he immediately let go.

With a loud bang, the broadsword slammed into the ground, and the high-ranking knight turned to look at the boy.

"It's a pity. He put down his broadsword, but the killing intent in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest, "Come back with me, the others are still waiting in place, and everything will be said when they get to the arbitration hall." ”

The boy was very obedient, and as soon as the knight finished speaking, he set off. It's just that the high-ranking knight raised his eyebrows, but he didn't take a step. The broadsword was raised again, the tip of the sword pointing at the boy's hand that was reaching for the hilt of the kitchen knife.

"If I'm right, the problem is with this knife, right?"

The boy froze and stopped. Seeing this, a subtle smile appeared on the corner of the knight's mouth.

The smile was unfolded, and the knight's eyes quickly narrowed again.

At this time, the young man was respectfully burying his head, and the kitchen knife had already been honestly carried by him in front of the knight.

"What does that mean?"

The knight didn't take the sword, he wanted to know the young man's thoughts, but unfortunately, from his perspective at this time, he couldn't see the young man's expression, let alone speculate on it.

"Buy me a life. ”

"Oh?" the knight smiled, letting down his vigilance slightly, and became a little interested in the knife in front of him, "This should be your hole card, right? You should know that in this wilderness, without the means to save your life, a person will not live long." Left and right are dead, if you want me to let you go, there's no need for that, right?"

"Rather than die in a state of restraint, I would rather die fighting the monster in the wild, at least I have a chance to struggle. The boy muttered, revealing a sense of stubbornness.

"Okay, backbone, if you hadn't committed a big taboo, I would have wanted to take you as my attendant. The knight's eyes were full of approval, but in the end he was only talking, "Let's talk about it, I'm satisfied, I'll give you the opportunity to open a hundred steps away from me, if you escape, you can still keep your hole cards, and have one more chance to live." ”

The boy knew that the knight was not going to let himself go. But he didn't care, after all, his original plan was not to buy his life with a knife, he thought clearly, the other party wanted this knife, wouldn't it be more convenient to kill people directly? Looking at the other party like that, it is estimated that he already knew that the source of his abnormality was in this knife, and the other party did not take the initiative to ask for a knife and did not take the knife because he still had a suspicion. And what he has to do is to dispel this suspicion.

He raised his head tentatively, his eyes dodging, and said, "This is a treasure sword, which can assist in the training of knightly skills. ”

The high-level knight's pupils shrank visibly with the naked eye, and he said hurriedly: "Exercise knight skills? What other functions do you have?"

Knight skills are the best way to press the bottom of the box in each knight inheritance, and it is especially valued by knights, which the young man knows from the knight's memory, and the reaction of the high-level knight is really not beyond his expectations.

"My ancestors were down-and-out knights who were demoted to commoners because of an unintentional offense, and the family heirloom knight advancement method became more and more incomplete due to the decline of the family way, and there was only one knight left in my generation. So I thought, maybe it has other functions, but I don't know what else it is. As for the effect of using it instead of the broadsword to enhance the training of knighthood, this is also what I discovered last year. ”

"Last year, I participated in the investigation of your family because of the witch incident, and you had a serious illness last year, didn't you?"

"That's what I said to the outside, in fact, because my family didn't have the money to buy medicine for me to make a medicinal bath, and I didn't have a complete knight inheritance, so I practiced and almost broke my body. ”

The knight nodded, "Sure enough." Since words like knighthood and medicinal baths that civilians don't know can come out of your mouth, it seems that what you say is somewhat convincing. Looking at it now, I finally understand why you, who look so thin, can kill a giant wolf. However, it seems that even if you don't die now and forcibly squeeze your potential, you won't have a few years to live. ”

"This ......" the young man looked suspicious, relieved for a moment, and said with a wry smile, "Whether he can live until that time, I can't say for sure." ”

"You're pretty open-minded. The knight laughed, "Forget it, if you are as kind as me, I won't mention your sadness." Let's talk about this knife. One last question, where did the knife come from?"

"I don't know. Seeing the knight's smile, the young man's tone trembled, "This, this, I really don't know! Yes, my father bought it last year, and I don't know where I bought it from, and I don't know where I got it, and the family has no money, so I will use it to buy a rag......"

In the end, the boy buried his whole head in his chest, and he couldn't say any more.

After a while, the knight pinched his eyebrows and shook his head with a smile.

"Forget it, I'm too suspicious. ”

The boy looked up suddenly, his eyes full of surprise.

"Are you satisfied?" he said, expectantly.

"So-so, but I'm a man of my word, you can start running. ”

The boy was overjoyed, his hand shook, and the kitchen knife was thrown at the knight. At the same time, he immediately turned around, picked up the broadsword on the side and ran away.

"Thank you, Lord Knight, I'll give you this knife!"

The young man's action was sudden, the knight was stunned, subconsciously took the kitchen knife, and when the shout accompanied by laughter in the distance came, he immediately pulled his hand back like an electric shock, and let the kitchen knife fall to the ground.

The high-level knight has a keen sense, and the moment he first touches the kitchen knife, he senses that there is a strange cold aura hidden in the blade, and at this moment, there is a young man's gloating laughter, where does he not know that he was deceived by the words of the young man. For a moment, his face was full of anger.

At this time, the shouts of the young man were heard again in the distance.

"Witch, it's time for you to make a move!"

Witch?!

In his mind, about the escape of the witch, the tragedy in the boy's home, the abnormal behavior of the boy, and the strange knife, all the clues were instantly connected, and the knight's expression changed abruptly.

At this time, perhaps because the blade of the knife was too smooth, the kitchen knife that had just fallen to the ground did not lie down steadily, and the surface of the stone under the blade slipped again, so that the tip of the knife touched the ground and no longer moved. It's just that this usually unnoticeable small movement makes the knight feel dead for a moment at this moment.

The dog jumped off the wall in a hurry, he didn't care about turning around and running away, let alone the dark injury and weakness caused by the secret method just now, he rose up and gathered the remaining energy in his body in the broadsword crazily, and immediately smashed it into the kitchen knife.

The sword was dazzling, reflecting a pair of blood-red eyes on the sword body that were also full of anger.

In the distance, there was a rare sense of relief in the young man's heart.

From the knight's memory, it is known that the high-ranking knight has always been quite calculating. Seeing that the sneak attack failed, he planned to throw the knife directly at him, and then throw down a sentence to call the witch to make a move, so as to stop him and let himself escape. But in this way, it is easy for him to see through. It's better to devise a plan, and after he sees through the lie of his previous one, it will be easier to believe the latter.

Seeing that the knight did not chase after him, he knew that his plan had been accomplished, and he couldn't help but be excited.

Thinking that he was in a hurry to be wise, he could come up with such a clever plan, and he really couldn't admire himself.

As for what happened next, the kitchen knife that had been unremarkable before, but suddenly changed today, it was impossible for anyone not to connect it to the witch who appeared in the same place as it not long ago.

The teenager himself had speculations about this.

There may be witch's power in the kitchen knife, or the witch's curse may be buried, no matter what, as long as the high-ranking knight is suspicious, he must be tempted. If it is really as he guessed, then the knight will inevitably be completely tripped by the kitchen knife, and he can rest easy for the time being.

It's the best-case scenario, hopefully......

Thinking like this, the boy subconsciously turned his head to look behind him.

Then, with a smile on his face, he only had time to let out a "", and was instantly blown away by a sudden shock wave.
