Chapter 41 There is mutual calculation
Just as the middle-aged knight was sweating and about to lose, Blank spoke.
"Orlando, stop! In this jungle, the Church is not our enemy. ”
Blank's timing was very good.
It not only relieved the embarrassment of the middle-aged knight's defeat, but also made the middle-aged knight realize their strength.
This is very beneficial for his next plans.
After fighting for a while, Orlando's anger also disappeared a lot, and when he heard Brack's words, he took a few steps back.
The middle-aged knight was given a chance to breathe, and he did not stubbornly insist on desperately.
However, there is still room for vigilance.
Blanc put away his weapon, took two steps forward, raised his empty hands and gestured to the middle-aged knight, and said in a kind tone: "This knight, what happened just now must be a misunderstanding, maybe we can sit down and have a good talk, if you have any questions, you can also ask me directly." Oh yes, I'm Blank, an adventurer. ”
His unusually sincere tone made the middle-aged knight, who was in a tense state mentally and physically, let go of some hostility a little.
The situation in the field eased slightly.
"Rick, a member of the Red Cross Order. ”
The middle-aged knight replied with a cold face, but his eyes were still fixed on Orlando, who had just fought him.
"Knight Rick, don't be nervous, we're not bad guys, there must have been some misunderstanding in the conflict just now, I'm a faithful believer in the Twilight God. ”
As he spoke, Blanc crossed his hands on his chest, bowed his head slightly, and made a gesture that the whole continent understood, and his humble appearance was very standard, if he didn't know Blank's details, Lance would almost believe it.
Blank is really a businessman.
This ability to "talk to people and talk to ghosts" is really getting more and more powerful.
However, after the dark ages experienced in the Kstana continent, most people believed in the legendary Twilight God, and it can be said that at least eight out of ten people on the entire continent were followers of the Twilight God.
Blank's statement wasn't abrupt.
"Twilight God bless!"
Knight Rick slowly withdrew his weapon and replied to Blank, taking his gaze back at Orlando.
It's impossible to say that Rick has completely let down his guard.
But the situation is stronger than people.
He couldn't beat the adventurer with the dark aura on his body alone, not to mention the existence of several other people.
In the face of this situation, he blindly uses strong words, and he has no chance of winning.
Moreover, he had to take Fell and Dykeley out of the forest, and now he couldn't act rashly even if he had any doubts.
Rick, who had made up his mind, quickly adjusted his expression and withdrew his originally hostile gaze.
On the surface, Rick has let his guard down.
However, Lance noticed that the mace in Rick's right hand was placed at his side according to the standard of a swordsman, so that he could quickly attack or defend if there was danger.
This is an experienced fighter.
Over there, Blanc used his unique strengths to struck up a conversation with Rick Knight.
"Knight Rick, I don't know why the church is here, but I do know that there is something unusual in the Forest of Erin. I guess your current situation must be caused by these anomalies, right?"
Blank asked very calmly.
"That's true. ”
Rick nodded calmly and self-containedly, but didn't say much.
"Is the reason why Rick Knight attacked Orlando because of the aura on his body?"
Blank asked again.
Rick looked stunned, he didn't expect Blank to make this matter clear.
He hesitated, but nodded very honestly, "Indeed." You know, the Church Knights are quite sensitive to the dark forces. ”
With that, his gaze drifted over Orlando again.
A gleam flashed in Blank's eyes, but he pretended to be sad and said, "To tell you the truth, we entered the Erin Forest this time to help Orlando solve this inexplicable power in him." ”
"Why don't you turn to the church for help?"
Rick asked.
Blanc shook his head and said, "We're not sure if the church can drive this force out, if not...... We didn't want to lose our friends, so we went to this place where he was tainted with this power and tried to find a way to get rid of it. ”
Lance & Ike: ......
If we hadn't known the truth of the matter, we would have almost believed it.
The mouth of a merchant, the ghost of deception.
Fortunately, they are in the same camp, otherwise, if this guy is sold, I'm afraid I will have to count the money for him.
Even so, you have to pay more attention in the future.
Lance and Ike glanced at each other, both seeing a hint of wariness in each other's eyes.
Blank's explanation logic was very clear, and his expression was very calm, Rick thought about it carefully, but he believed most of it.
"So, I misunderstood you. I'm so sorry!"
Rick said apologetically to Orlando.
Apologies are apologies, and as far as he is concerned, he still doesn't have a good impression of this person named Orlando.
"It doesn't matter. ”
Orlando replied coldly.
He didn't know why, he always had a very tired feeling in the face of this knight of the church, and even if Blanc made peace with him, he still couldn't raise any interest in talking to this knight.
Intellectually, however, Orlando knew very well that he was probably under the influence of that dark force.
Blanc saw that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and hurriedly spoke: "Knight Rick, my friend, looking at your embarrassed appearance, I think, you must be in trouble, I wonder if I, who am also a believer in the Twilight God, can I provide you with some help?"
"It's my pleasure. ”
Rick hurriedly thanked.
Whatever the group wanted to do, at least when the fat man named Blanc opened his mouth to help him, the others didn't object.
That alone was enough to make Rick feel good.
With their help, Fair and Dykeley will be able to get out of here safely.
It's really the protection of the twilight gods.
As they chatted, the relationship between the two sides became closer, and under Blank's deliberate guidance, Rick also opened the conversation.
"I received a support mission from the church more than a month ago, and my team and I were sent to the Forest of Irene to investigate the anomaly and rescue Pastor Orla who first discovered the anomaly. ”
Rick said this, a wry smile on his face, "However, as you can see, my team is in an unprecedented crisis here......"
