"Are we friends from Dark Side City in front of you!? Do you know the Black Knight Emperor Piero?" Negris asked loudly.
The shadow had withdrawn its sword and retreated a distance, standing in the void: "Are you the God of Knowledge?"
"Yes, that's me. Hey, no, how do you know that I am the God of Knowledge?" Nigris was surprised that Lisa and Felin had not revealed the identity of the God of Knowledge to the people in Darkside City.
The shadow said bitterly: "That traitor Piero told you about your situation in a code. When I saw you, I remembered that the twelve black knights under Strong Bones, Rogge, had met the God of Knowledge.
"
As soon as he said this name, Negris remembered something: "Rogg, the Twelve Black Knights, is that you? Have you been promoted to the Black Knight Emperor?"
"Yes, Lord God of Knowledge, you...you have lost weight." Rogge said sadly.
"..."
"..."
"Why do you call Piero a traitor? What's going on with the code? Why are you in the Dark Side City? What's going on with you raising a family?" Nigris asked a bunch of questions in one breath, but he didn't answer.
Thinking of meeting old acquaintances.
"It's not convenient in the air. Otherwise, Lord God of Knowledge, let's sit down on the ground and talk." Rogge said.
A group of people fell to the ground, and the bone dragon hovering in the air also landed. As the distance got closer, many people could clearly see the situation of the bone dragon, which immediately caused an uproar: "Bone, bone dragon!? The bone dragon can fly into the sky.
?How can it be?"
Following Rogge's order, countless people emerged from the sand and returned to the long queue they had seen in the air. Some of them ran over to set up tables and chairs.
Place chairs and a simple open-air venue is quickly set up.
Nigris noticed that all of these people were lichs. Their bodies were shriveled and tattered, but they were very clean. The rotten areas were specially filled with metals or plates of different materials, making them look like decorations on their bodies.
The guests and hosts sat down respectively, but Negris found that the only host opposite was Rogge, which made him couldn't help but ask: "Where are the other black knights?"
Rogge said: "The twelve black knights are dead, and I am the only one left."
"Huh? What happened?" Nigris asked.
Maybe Rogge had held it in for too long and couldn't help but talk nonsense when he met an acquaintance.
After the king disappeared, Piero brought the Twelve Black Knights to the main material plane. After quietly lurking for a while, the Twelve Black Knights and Piero had differences.
The Twelve Black Knights said they would conquer a large territory and re-establish an undead empire on the main material plane.
But Piero felt that they were out of their minds. Undead creatures were like rootless water in the main material plane, and it was impossible to grow. They might as well reincarnate into humans and integrate into the human world.
Neither side could convince the other, and a fight finally broke out. Piero singled out the Twelve Black Knights.
At that time, Piero was an imperial-level black warrior, and the twelve black knights were only at the duke level, but there were so many that no one could do anything to anyone in a fight. Of course, Piero still held back, otherwise the twelve black knights would have
One or two will die.
So they simply parted ways, and the Twelve Black Knights teamed up to explore the main material plane. It didn't take long before they were attacked by the Church of Light, the Human Empire, and the elves, and they had to hide.
After hiding for about 20 to 30 years, the news passed, and they reappeared and continued to wander around, triggering an encirclement and suppression by the Church of Light and humans, and had no choice but to hide again, but at this time there were only ten of them left.
Then one day, they suddenly found a letter in their hiding place. There were only two words on the letter: Run quickly. It was signed with Piero's emblem. The letter was opened for five seconds, which was only enough for them to read these two words. The paper was
It burned automatically and turned into ashes.
Rather than believe it, the black knights ran away quickly. As soon as they ran out of the circle, they discovered that the Church of Light had already laid a dragnet around the old castle where they were hiding. Just the Holy Spirit who could fly into the air could
There are more than a dozen.
From then on, whenever they encountered danger, some very confidential letters or messages would be delivered to them. The method was different each time, but they were all very confidential and would be destroyed after reading.
There was also a black knight who came to summon him in person, claiming to be Piero's subordinate.
Obviously, Piero reincarnated as the Black Knight again. This is not surprising, because the method of reincarnating the Black Knight was invented by Piero.
However, despite Piero's tip, the number of black knights such as Rogge continued to decrease. After all, humans are not vegetarians. Sufficient manpower and resources allow them to fail a hundred times. As long as they succeed once, they can give Rogge and others a chance.
causing serious losses.
They have realized that it is impossible to conquer the territory and establish an immortal empire. During the days when they were chased and intercepted by humans, they were driven step by step to the location of the Dark Side City in the desert. Only then did they find a safe place to live.
So three hundred years ago, they established Darkside City and truly took root there.
On their way into exile, they gathered and rescued many undead creatures, including undead and lich. Many people were just living in a haze of misery and loneliness. They didn't even know how they became like this, let alone what undead creatures were.
.
They gathered up such undead creatures and brought them to Dark Side City. The biggest activity of Dark Side City was to wander around, search for undead creatures all over the world, and either teach or guide them to rescue them from human territory.
Over the past few hundred years, the Dark Side City has had more than 3,000 undead creatures and more than 20,000 affiliated life races. However, they have also been under siege and suppression by the Church of Light. Only Rogge remains among the twelve knights.
By myself.
Some time ago, a password dedicated to Piero appeared in a corner of the Dark Side City, telling him that there was news from the Palace of Rest, and that the God of Knowledge transformed into a young brass dragon and came to the human world.
So when Jelica told him that Lord Ange had a young brass dragon under his command, he immediately thought of the God of Knowledge. After confirming that Ange had the ability to purify undead germs, he even sent everyone to
Brought over.
"These are the core people of Dark Side City. I brought them all here. God of Knowledge, is the Palace of Rest open? Can I go back?" Rogge suddenly asked.
"Ah? Go back? What are you going back for?" Nigris asked in confusion.
"I'm tired. I want to entrust these people to you, sir, and I will go back to the Palace of Rest to sleep forever." Rogge said tiredly.
"Eternal sleep? What does eternal sleep mean? Eternal sleep? Isn't that tantamount to suicide? Are you crazy?" Nigris was surprised.
Rogge shook his head tiredly: "I'm not crazy, I'm just tired. I've lived for too long and all my brothers are dead. It's boring and tired."
Nigris suddenly discovered that this Rogge was very determined to die. No matter how he tried to persuade him, he said he was tired and boring. The only ones he couldn't let go of were these subordinates. He hoped Nigris would accept him and let him return to the Palace of Rest.
Sleep forever.
Let’s not talk about whether he can enter the Palace of Rest, but let’s talk about the idea of eternal sleep. Nigris absolutely does not support it. He is immortal and wants to sleep forever?
Don't say it's tiring or boring. It's been several thousand years since I was sealed in the Book of Brass. In the last thousand years, not even a ghost was seen. Finally, a skeleton appeared, but
It's a vegetable-growing skeleton that's even more boring than that.
That's it. Have you ever thought about sleeping forever? Wouldn't it be even less interesting if Ange has cultivated the land for more than a thousand years? Do you have any plans to sleep forever?
After persuading for a long time, but still unable to change Rogge's mind, Nigris quietly motioned Ange to contact Anthony.
Anthony said as soon as he heard this: "It's normal, it's too normal. That guy Roger is delicate and artistic. He thinks too much easily. I'm surprised that he can persist until now. The solution is very easy. Wait a minute. I'll go there. Remember."
Have someone open the teleportation array for me."
Ten minutes later, Lisa, who was in the oasis, opened the teleportation array. Anthony, dressed in a white robe and cloak, with his head and face covered, stepped out of the teleportation array, hitting the ground with his scepter: "Come out, old man."
The point where the scepter landed rolled up a puff of black smoke, which grew bigger and bigger, as if a black hole had been torn open. A black horse with red eyes stepped out and sucked in the black smoke like a black hole.
Walk and condense into form.
"Who called me in the middle of the night!" As soon as he landed, the black horse snorted impatiently.
Anthony said awkwardly: "It's me, old man, it's me. Roger is not in a good mood. Let's go treat him."
"That Rogge again? Where is he?" Dark Horse asked impatiently.
Anthony pointed in a direction based on the coordinates sent by Ange, and then asked in a flattering manner: "Old man, can you give me a ride."
The black horse snorted and sneered: "If you're dreaming, run away by yourself."
After saying that, he rushed forward fiercely, spread his four hooves and brought out a black line, and slipped away. Anthony sighed, pulled the hem of his cloak over his knees, spread his legs and chased in the direction of the black horse.
It started a little slowly, but then started running at full speed. The Yingying Holy Light on Anthony's body became brighter and brighter, and his speed became faster and faster, and he actually caught up with the dark horse.
All the mounts of the Black Knight are condensed by themselves. The arms and fingers are like one body. The Black Knight even uses his hands and feet, plus the four hooves of the mount, to play musical instruments together.
But as the inventor of the Black Warrior, Anthony suddenly thought one day, if his mount is an independent undead creature, then wouldn't he and it be equal to two Black Warriors? What's the use of being as one? It's stronger than himself.
Two against one?
So he found the ghost of a horse and reincarnated it into the Dark Knight.
After the death of intelligent beings, the chance of being born as undead is very small. Even if a hundred lichs are born, one undead may not be born. Horses are not considered intelligent beings, so the chance of being born as undead is even smaller. However, there are quite a lot of lich horses.
.
Anthony, this old guy, is probably the only undead horse in the Eight Hundred Abyss.
Anthony reincarnated the undead horse into a black warrior, taught it martial arts, tempered its soul, trained it to cooperate, and forcibly taught it to become a duke-level black warrior horse...
It's just that Anthony was involved in the Church of Light, so he sealed it for a long time. This made it very angry, and firmly broke off relations with Anthony, and even forbade Anthony to call it by its name.
If Rogge hadn't relapsed into his old habit, Anthony wouldn't have dared to summon it out. But if he hadn't summoned it out, he might not be able to defeat Rogge, who was now the emperor, as an archbishop of the legal system.
Twenty minutes later, they galloped on six legs and arrived at the place where Ange and others were. As soon as they met, without even saying hello, the black horse rushed in front of Rogge, raised its big hoof and whipped him over.
Rogge got to know the black horse. As soon as he felt the joy of meeting again, he was stunned by the black horse's big hooves. He subconsciously dispersed his body and retreated to regroup.
Anthony rushed over panting, and started to shine a holy light, illuminating Rogge's position in detail.
After breaking up, Dark Horse took control of Rogge's soul and asked Anthony to search the memory and erase some inexplicable memories.
"The meaning of life? What the hell, erase it."
"If you can't be strong,... let yourself not be weak? What bullshit? Delete it."
"In life... you always have to... walk by yourself... carry it by yourself??? Is he out of his mind? Where do you see unnecessary moaning? Erase it."
Anthony looked through Rogge's memories and found a lot of inexplicable things. Apparently, Rogge was in the main material plane and was corroded by many corrupt human thoughts.
But this is not surprising. Rogge used to be a kind of delicate character who would resonate with those inexplicable things. This is not the first time that Anthony has deleted his memory. Even Dark Horse has cooperated with him skillfully.
The operation was as fierce as a tiger's, but it may have been too harsh. After Rogge regained his form, he looked at Anthony in shock: "Who are you? What did you do to me? Where is this place?"
The dark horse snorted, nudged Anthony with his neck, made him stand up, accelerated, and bumped into Anthony.
Soar! A puff of black smoke rolled into a hole, and the black horse seemed to have gotten into a black hole. With a swish, it disappeared as the black hole disappeared.
"Okay, it's cured." Anthony stroked his shoulder and saluted Angel, but did not respond to Rogge. He turned around and ran away, and he was far away after a while.
Coming and going like the wind, Nigris was stunned for a moment. He couldn't help but turn to Rogge and asked: "Do you still want to go back to the Palace of Rest?"
"The Palace of Rest? The Palace of Rest has been restarted? Can I go back? Is Your Majesty still there? Your Majesty is not there? There is no one in the Palace of Rest? What are you going to do?" Rogge said in surprise.
"Then do you still want to sleep forever?"
"Eternal sleep? Doesn't eternal sleep mean death? Am I crazy? By the way, who was that guy just now? He smells like a lackey of the light. Just don't hold me back and let me hack him to death." Rogge complained.
"..." Nigris was speechless: "This treatment is so thorough, he has become a different person."
Suddenly, a fluorescent figure ran back from a distance. It was Anthony who had just run away. He panted and said urgently: "Run quickly, light!"
