The older knight only took a step back, then put the sword blade in his hand on the little girl's neck, shook his head at the big cat man, and said: "I'm sorry, friend, I can't do that. This is about loyalty and faith.
, This is an internal matter of the Kingdom of Kaulin-Ithurion, and I hope you will not interfere."
The cold steel sword touched her skin, and the little girl could almost feel the cold air coming from the blade. She shuddered, and she was obviously frightened to death. Tears rolled in her golden eyes, and she looked like she was about to cry.
, but he clenched his fists and said nothing.
Rhett looked into her eyes and comforted: "Don't be afraid, little lady, they don't dare to do anything to you."
The little girl was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly as she looked at this strange big cat man.
The lion paladin raised his head, holding the scepter, and his red mane and beard were spread out. He showed his white fangs and let out a deep roar from his throat: "The believers of Malan never accept threats.
Give me an answer before three -"
Rhett took a heavy step forward, frightening all the Duron City Guards to retreat. "If you are a man, come out and fight me openly. I will give you a chance, or you will die in humiliation here."
He raised his pointed paws and shook it slightly: "Otherwise, no matter what the situation, you will not have any delusions today. Unless you die, you will not have a second way to leave here."
The young knight was very excited. Hearing this, he drew his sword and held it in his hand, looking eager to do so. But the older knight stopped his companion and shook his head: "It's my duty, I can't do it."
.”
The latter pointed the tip of his sword at the little girl's snow-white neck and said in a hoarse voice: "If you are still worried about her safety, let us leave."
Dark Fairy Tale stood aside and watched this scene, and couldn't help but touch his cheek.
The big cat man shook his head slightly.
The sunlight made his mane shine. The paladin pressed his paws on his chest. His tall figure suddenly dwarfed, and he suddenly knelt down on one knee towards the little girl.
Rhett raised his head and replied warmly: "Little lady, although I don't know your name. But in the name of the brave lady I serve, I swear that I will rescue you and keep you away from all despicable and dangerous things. On this I
I swear an oath, under the witness of Ms. Marland - to use bravery as a sword and justice as a shield."
The little girl looked at this scene in disbelief, her face flushed. "I believe you, Mr. Knight." A trace of emotion flashed in her golden eyes, and she shouted in a childish voice: "My name is Delis, please don't mind me.
!”
The older knight suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart. He pulled the little girl back, and before the big cat man got up, he threw the sword in his hand at the big cat man. When Delis saw this, he screamed: "Be careful!
"
But Rhett did not dodge or evade. Between the knife marks on his cheek, a glint of light flashed in his pale silver pupils - he raised his paw to block, but before the sword could reach close to him, he lightly swatted it away.
.
The knight's steel sword spun a few times and fell into the snow.
"Don't come over." The older knight realized what was wrong and shouted sternly: "——I really know how to do it!"
"If you kill her, I will kill you——"
"There is not only a temple of Ori nearby, but your mission is doomed to fail, and your loyalty is worthless."
"Foolish loyalty will not honor your gods."
The lion man jumped up, his voice as cold as ice.
The elder knight's face changed drastically, and he cursed these damn freedom paladins in his heart. The knights of Malan always acted only in accordance with 'true justice', and regarded the laws and power of the mortal world as nothing.
But the big cat man's words hit the point that the knight is most worried about. There is not necessarily only a temple of Ori nearby. If the other party rushes to the resurrection point first and robs the target, all their efforts will be in vain.
Although the Temple of Light is willing to sell the kingdom to save face for this mission, Roman, the believer of Amaya, is different from Ori, who advocates loyalty, justice and order. One of the owners of the two temples is indifferent to the royal power, and the other simply
Indifferent to humans.
Both temples are not that easy to talk about.
He was so confused that he forgot that the real danger was still in front of him. When he came to his senses, he realized that the tall shadow of the Lion Paladin had shrouded his head. The older knight subconsciously wanted to defend, but it was already a moment too late.
.
A cold light flashed in Rhett's eyes, knowing that it was now.
He suddenly slapped the opponent's chest with a claw, and sent her flying away, rolling down into the snow. She didn't know whether she was alive or dead - and then the big cat turned around and grabbed Delis. The little girl was about to stretch out her hand, but at this moment
, sudden changes occurred.
It turned out that Dark Fairy Tale came to the side at some point, and suddenly took a quick step, grabbed Delis, and rolled the latter aside.
"Mr. Knight!" Delis struggled for a moment, but how could he be the opponent of the dark fairy tale? She could only shout anxiously.
But the big cat man took a step forward, and the young knight stopped him in front of him. "Help stop them!" Dark Fairy Tale shouted to the knight.
The young knight nodded and raised his long sword horizontally. "Everyone, line up!" He took over the command of the older knight and shouted: "This is a battle to the death, and you will be rewarded after you complete the mission and return!"
"
Although the Duron City Guards had no concept of faith and loyalty, when they heard the word reward, they all regained their morale, raised their spears, and stood in front of Red. Of course, they were no match for the big cat man.
But it's okay to cause some trouble.
Dark Fairy Tale was relieved when he saw this.
Although it was a bit embarrassing to rely on a little girl to escape, the mission goal was important, and he didn't care about that much at the moment. He hurriedly got up and ran in the direction of Allie and the priest.
At the same time, he waved to the two of them and shouted: "Break out from behind!"
Behind is the depth of the valley. A group of people on the platform blocked the entrance to the valley, but in the other direction of the valley, there were only the two people Fang Plover and Sophie who had blocked there before - it would be okay to add one more at most.
The fighting power of Jieta.
Although the battle craftsman made Dark Fairy Tale feel extremely fearful, but with only two people, it was much easier to deal with than a group of people anyway.
It was just that they were deep in the Ash Mountain Forest, which was completely different from their destination, but he didn't care about that much at the moment. He had the mission target in hand, so in short, he would get rid of these people first.
At this time, a gunshot was heard in the snow, and the flying projectiles hit a place not far from the dark fairy tale, creating a snow pillar.
Dark Fairy Tale subconsciously blocked the little girl behind her, glanced at the ship officer from a distance, frowned, and then put down the gun in her hand. She said to Tianlan beside her: "Tell the captain, please save her."
Delis."
Tian Lan glanced at the valley curiously before nodding.
"Brother Ed."
She whispered something to the communication crystal.
In fact, no need to be reminded, Fang Plover and Sophie were already blocking each other in the valley.
Dark Fairy Tale took a deep breath when he saw the two people appearing. He had not forgotten the previous scene in his mind. The other party was extremely fearful and quickly waved his hand to Aille on the side: "You left me, you take the treatment."
Deal with that battle craftsman."
Aille grimaced. He had seen the previous scene with his own eyes and knew the opponent's level better than Dark Fairy Tale. However, the mission target was in the hands of Dark Fairy Tale, and the latter was also the commander of the team, so he could only choose to obey orders.
Fortunately, the opponent couldn't take back the huge knight's structure for a while——
Ragnarok's iron guard made no mistakes in his judgment this time.
The Alien Dreadnought is close to the platform. Although Orphen's Double Star is more flexible than the ordinary Dreadnought, it is still a heavy structure and is far less nimble than a light structure.
Moreover, Fang Yu also estimated the distance and just shook his head, knowing that he would not have time to take it back.
He raised his hand, and a blue light spread out behind him, tracing a gorgeous curve downwards. Its slender four blades reflected the light in the snow. Above his head, a white-gold force field ring shone in the sunlight.
Sparkling underneath.
It is the capable angel.
However, Fang Plover's summoning action was only halfway completed when he suddenly stopped - he frowned, raised his head and glanced behind Ragnarok's Iron Guard in surprise.
He seemed to see a dark shadow flashing there, but when he looked carefully, there was nothing there. Fang Yu was slightly startled, thinking that he was hallucinating.
Aille was paying attention to him all the time, and naturally saw the look on Fang Plover's face.
He saw Fang Plover had stopped his summons, and was wondering what other conspiracy the other party had. Suddenly, he heard an exclamation coming from behind - it was the voice of the priest: "Be careful, Aille, behind you.
…!”
The Iron Guard was startled and turned around, but this was his last action.
The next moment, he felt a chill on his neck, and then darkness enveloped his vision.
…
On the other side, Dark Fairy Tale obviously did not notice the changes in this direction.
The one he chose to face was the female knight holding the pale blade - she was a great beauty, and she looked familiar to him - but Dark Fairy Tale was so nervous that he didn't think much about it for a moment.
In fact, Shesta and Baggins had already taught him a lesson before, so that he did not dare to underestimate anyone in the opponent's team. However, the Cavaliers were a fairly decent profession. If the strength levels were not much different, at least self-protection should not be possible.
question.
And he has another plan. The knight is a heavily armored profession, and the opponent's thick magic armor speaks for itself. The ranger is just the opposite. If he can break away from the opponent's fight in one or two blows, once
In the midst of a chase, even if you take one person with you, the other party may not be able to catch up with you.
His confidence comes from the other side.
He had already learned from the alchemist that Fang Plover was the leader of this adventure group.
Generally speaking, the leader of an adventure group is undoubtedly the most powerful person. And an adventure group cannot have two leaders, right? As long as Aille holds Fang Plover back, he will always have the chance to leave with the mission goal.
Opportunity.
It's a pity that what the dark fairy tale never expected was——
It is true that a team has only one leader, but that is not necessarily the case for two teams.
Sophie held up her hands, breathed lightly, and slowly blinked her black and white eyes - she was a little surprised to see the ranger rushing towards her, and she was also a little curious.
Generally speaking, the ranger has an advantage against the combat craftsman. Why is the opponent coming directly towards him?
In her memory, when was the last time someone challenged her head-on? Her Royal Highness the Princess of Silver Vislan thought about it carefully, and she actually couldn't remember it clearly. It seemed that she had been in the "Newcomer King" of Etalia since then.
After winning nine consecutive championships in the competition, nothing like this has happened.
She couldn't help but feel a little funny, thinking that this man was really brave.
At this time, she actually recognized that the other party was from Ragnarok, but there were so many people in Ragnarok branches, and she couldn't possibly know everyone. However, the ten major guilds were all domestic alliance guilds, and since the other party challenged her -
—
Then of course she has to deal with it seriously.
She raised her sword, and there was a silver flame on the blade.
"A burst of power," Sophie thought silently in her mind, "should it be enough?" she thought to herself. The magic furnace behind Her Royal Highness Princess Silver Vislan lit up slightly, and golden light patterns went up along her magic armor.
.
Until it blends into the blade.
A cold light.
"Silver Pegasus!"
Suddenly, the dark fairy tale was filled with chills. It wasn't anything else, but he felt that he had seen it wrong - the silver magic furnace behind Sophie, with its unique shape of overlapping wings, seemed to be the one in Lotao's Temple of Valor.
A collector's edition magic furnace priced at one and a half million lisels.
What a knight dreams of——
Only thirteen pieces of this thing were produced in total, for use by paladins and guard knights below level 20, and their owners were all extraordinary people.
He only thought that he might be hallucinating, but as an elite of ragnarok, he had not made the stupid mistake of the old knight before. He reacted in a flash, saw the opponent slashing at him with a sword, and raised a pair of daggers in his hands.
Block.
Rangers are different from crossbow archers in that they can be both far and near, but their close range abilities are far inferior to their long range abilities.
Dark Fairy knew in his heart that the knight's first sword almost always had a divine lock, and dodging was just asking for trouble. Although his melee ability was poor, if he could only block one sword, it shouldn't be a problem.
But he immediately opened his eyes wide.
He saw the opponent's sword cut down, and his own pair of daggers were broken in response - the power of breaking blades, this is not a knight's ability, but a very rare passive skill plug-in. He saw the golden guide on the opponent's armor
, suddenly remembered what it was.
Power Burst IV ‘Comet-ve’ type, the price of this plug-in alone is as much as his entire fortune.
Moreover, this plug-in is Silver Vislan’s unique technology.
He suddenly raised his head, and the more he looked at the other person, the more familiar he looked - and finally realized who he was challenging head-on. This thought made him almost want to hit his head on the rock to death - invincible in frontal battle, Silver Veslan.
And the one he challenged was the princess of Silver Vislan's generation.
Dark Fairy Tale almost shed tears. Put this operation on the community, and it is estimated that it can be ranked in the top 10 collection of mentally retarded operations in Ettaria this month.
But he was mentally retarded, and he didn't want to die. He threw away the dagger and retreated, tearing off the necklace around his neck and shouting: "Avoid!" Avoiding the necklace would give him a chance to get out of the opponent's attack range.
, Dark Fairy Tale only hopes to give itself a better direction.
He still has a hostage in his hand. The other party is not a paladin of Malan, so he still has to pay attention to the knight's code.
But what made his eyes darken was...
Before he could emit a flash of light from his necklace and wrap it around him, the opponent's armor already glowed brightly, locking him in place. "Anchor Gloves..." Dark Fairy Tale was about to cry.
He had seen this gauntlet before, and it was priced at 1.2 million lisels on the black market.
The dark fairy sat down in the snow.
There is no doubt that he has lost his last chance - but what makes him extremely frustrated is that he feels that he is not defeated by the opponent's skills.
But he was simply beaten to death by money...
"You lost." Sophie put away her sword. After all, Silver Vislan and Ragnarok were allied guilds in the country. Unlike the alchemist, she couldn't kill them all, so she just said this.
But just as Dark Fairy Tale was about to answer something, he suddenly heard a scream coming from afar.
"do not come!"
That was the voice of the priest in his team.
The two of them turned around together, only to see the body of the iron guard named Aille lying in the snow, with his head on the side, dripping with blood. But it was obvious that it was not Fang Plover who had taken action, because the latter was standing motionless.
On the other side of the valley, I watched this scene from a distance.
And not far from Ragnarok’s iron guards and priests——
There is a girl.
She has long black hair and golden eyes. In the harsh winter, she only wears a long black dress, swaying in the wind.
The girl didn't seem to hear the priest's words, nor did she see anyone in the valley. Her eyes seemed to be only looking in one direction, and then she walked forward slowly. When she passed the priest, the latter suddenly screamed.
