Chapter 294 Banishing the Prisoner and the Oath Knight
Phew!
What was exposed in the abdominal cavity that was cut into two sections was not the flesh and blood as imagined, but a black gelatinous substance that was difficult to describe in words.
Most people who are careless in the sea will not live long.
Seeing such a strange scene, the leader Haimo already realized that something was wrong:
"No! Back off!"
Roar!
There seemed to be a terrifying monster hidden in the gelatin, which was constantly rolling out of the witch's abdomen.
After landing, he transformed into a tall man holding a butcher knife in his hand, floating as if he was weightless, and rushed towards the pirate cadres who were retreating when they saw the situation was not going well.
Especially the pirates who were previously cursed by the witch and were unable to dodge in time.
"die die die"
Even though the entire body is composed of a strange black gelatinous liquid, the once handsome look on the man's face can still be vaguely seen.
But at this moment, his body was completely dark, his face was distorted, and only his eyes were like two burning coals, emitting endless hatred and anger!
Just like a life-seeking evil ghost who just crawled out of the abyss of hell!
呲
"Well"
The butcher's knife cut across the chest of a pirate cadre whose senses were stripped away. There was no skin damage or any blood flowing, but there was a gray-white scar that gradually spread across the body.
Half stepping into the senior level pirate cadre, he groaned and fell to the ground.
Features: Soul-killing!
Even if the appearance is intact, part of the soul of the person who was stabbed has actually been cut off. Even if he is a devout believer in a certain true god, he should not think about being able to ascend to heaven after death.
The essence of this evil spirit is clearly close to that of an immortal evil spirit! Strictly speaking, it is no worse than the "murderous ghost" that once wreaked havoc in New York.
"snort!"
Seeing this unexpected and strange thing that suddenly appeared, Huggins let out a cold snort and was about to kill it personally.
But they found that the strange "evil spirit" had retreated to the dying witch after killing three pirate cadres.
Normally, wizards of the Curse School have a high risk of losing control. People often die from the backlash of "core curses", especially when their strength is greatly reduced or they are near death. It is common for their souls to be eaten away by the backlash of "curses".
matter.
However, the witch is obviously an exception.
One person and one ghost look at each other "affectionately".
"Dina, you are so beautiful!"
"Lind, I'm sorry!"
Although they are a couple who "eat" and "be eaten", their past relationships seem to have never changed even if their identities have changed.
For "Witch" Dana, the deeper the love was, the more painful it was now, and the more painful it was, the stronger the power. This was also the reason why she could almost kill a large species with one blow in the beginning.
For "Evil Spirit" Linde, it is obvious that even in this situation, he has no resentment towards his girlfriend. It can only be said that the joy of licking a dog is completely incomprehensible to outsiders.
However, no matter how unforgettable their past stories were, they are all over now.
Teng!
The blue evil fire rose, and the evil spirit and the witch finally embraced each other and disappeared into the air.
From beginning to end, the witch had an enigmatic smile on her face, and it was unclear whether she was satisfied or dissatisfied with this experience of death.
Later.
Even the "Golem Knight" who lost his teammates couldn't hold on for long.
Outnumbered, the armor was constantly damaged by the claws of a group of "Spiny-backed Crocodile Lizards", and the mobility was gradually lost. Then, the lightning-fast tentacles of a "Large Species Spiral Brain Coral" grabbed the ankle and sent it into a trap full of sharp teeth.
in the huge mouthparts.
creak creak
The terrifying bite force of the mouthparts is no worse than that of a hydraulic press.
Sea monsters in the Black Sea come from a wide range of sources.
All sea creatures can turn into sea monsters under the power of Eketor, the "Mother of Sea Monsters".
The same goes for "Spiral Brain Coral", which is a large polyp stony coral. However, it does not live in groups like ordinary coral polyps. It is a round single coral with a bright appearance.
It has zooxanthellae similar to other corals in its body. It relies on a symbiotic relationship to survive through photosynthesis, and it can also use its countless lightning-fast tentacles to actively prey on small marine organisms.
Now transformed into a large sea monster, the three-meter-tall "Golem Knight" is nothing more than a plate of snacks to it.
Well, it's not that easy to digest.
With no hope of escape, Hefman also had the pride of being a wizard. He would never accept the end of being turned into sea monster feces and detonated his steam furnace without hesitation.
Boom!
After the loud noise, the dust settled
Wow! Wow!
Mud water surged out of the big hole again, and this time no one jumped out to hinder the sea monsters' "construction".
Even though it was interrupted three times and a total of one and a half "earthquake two-headed turtles" and one "earth-bellied snake lizard" were lost, the impact on the scheduled "construction period" after the reorganization was not too great.
However, as we go deeper, there are more and more witchcraft traps attached to the rock wall.
From time to time, sparks of lightning and vicious curses will be triggered, but these are trivial to the huge sea monster.
According to the information detected by the "ghost", the first layer of granite rock layer is 15 meters thick and 3 meters high, and the second layer of granite layer is 8 meters thick and 3 meters high.
As long as you break through the second layer of rock and pull out the last nail guarding the door of the third layer of the vault, the entire vault will be open to the Pirate King.
Boom!
Soon, the second layer of rock collapsed after being eroded to the limit, exposing the second layer of the vault 29 meters deep underground.
Looking at the deep hole, Huggins did not rush to order the sea monsters to continue digging.
Instead, all the sea monsters and people retreated, and he was the only one standing on the edge of the pothole, waiting for something with interest.
Because of the smooth execution of the plan, they still have a lot of time.
Especially against the last opponent, Huggins didn't mind a little more patience.
What's more, this is a guy who even the pirate king, who is ruthless and has no bottom line, can't help but respect him.
Huggins was not kept waiting.
Tap tap tap
The sound of steel boots on gravel came from the entrance of the cave.
A tall knight wearing radiant alchemical armor and a fiery red cloak stood at the bottom of the cave and looked at Huggins, who was looking down.
crackling
The darkness underground could not block the gaze of the two powerful extraordinary beings. There seemed to be lightning crackling where the two looked at each other!
Grand Knight Grace Calvin, also known as "Knight of the Oath" and "Light of Knights", was born in the "Duchie of Calvin", a small country adjacent to the Kingdom of Cyrus.
You can tell from his surname that he was of noble birth, and he was even the second in line to the throne of the Grand Duke!
Even if it is just a pocket country as small as only eight cities compared to the powerful countries on the mainland, if you can become its master, you can still enjoy supreme secular power!
But Grace, who was superior to his brother Thackeray in terms of character, knowledge, ability, knight level, etc., adhered to the virtues of knights for the smooth transition of the principality's power and the tranquility of the people.
After he became an adult, he publicly stated that he would never compete with his brother for the position of Grand Duke.
It wasn't until their father passed away and Thackeray, as the elder brother, ascended the throne of Duke Calvin with trepidation that he realized that the excellent younger brother he was wary of had indeed no other intentions.
After giving Grace a lot of generous and free rewards to make him look good, they became peaceful, no, kept a distance from each other from then on.
However, as the expansion of Silius' land territory came to the "Principality of Calvin", they had to face a new problem.
Surrender or die?
Even though the Principality of Calvin had neither a good port nor high-quality mineral resources, nor even a large area of fertile land for farming, it was just a small and poor country. But Philip II, who was militaristic and dreamed of being an emperor, did not dislike this.
A piece of mosquito leg meat.
Outsiders don't know how the subsequent story developed. They only know that the "Netherlands Banking Group", which had huge influence on Cyrus, finally took action generously.
They received a promise from King Philip II of Cyrus that they would not send troops to destroy the country as long as Thackeray Calvin reigned.
In exchange, the Grand Duke's only younger brother, Grace Calvin, one of the few great knights in the Principality, became the guardian of the headquarters of the "Netherlands Banking Group" for life!
However, the story is far from over here.
On the night that Grace left with the bank group, his brother, the current Archduke Calvin, left several famous courtesans in the principality to continue partying after the celebration banquet, and then died in a very dishonorable manner.
The Principality of Calvin, which had no heirs to inherit, immediately went into chaos, and only a week later surrendered to Silius Kaicheng, who came to the city again.
The short-lived peace that Grace had bought for the principality by sacrificing her whole life of freedom immediately became a joke, and after identification by several bishop-level clergymen of the True God, Thackeray Calvin's death did not have external factors.
This method of death put Grace's great sacrifice into the mud.
Ridiculous and worthless!
In view of this situation, even the banking syndicate no longer forced Grace to perform the contract.
But Grace did not choose to break her oath, but went into self-exile in disguise, guarding her loneliness, loneliness and her sword, not marrying a wife, not having children, not seeking money, and silently becoming the longest-serving guardian of the underground vault.
The names "Knight of the Oath" and "Light of Knight" also spread like wildfire, and were widely spread on the mainland.
If given enough time, he can complete the fourth level of transformation and become a titled knight, and he can draw strength from the "name", maybe it will be possible to become a member of the peak knight, right?
The most important thing is that unlike the two wizards who signed a strict witchcraft contract, Grace Calvin did not sign any agreement with the banking group.
The only thing that can restrain him is his own heart!
From Huggins' perspective, what he respects is not Grace's "ridiculous" spirit of sacrifice, but his willingness to put on heavy shackles for a vow and shoulder all the firm will alone!
This is the identification of the path, even if it is the completely opposite path to "exiling prisoners"!
"Ah ha ha ha ha"
