Chapter 48 The battle of knights, the seal of the king
It was windy and snowy.
The pure and beautiful pale roots grow freely.
Fluorescent white light feathers fall down.
Fang-like stone pillars soared into the sky.
On the broad snowfield, two proud warriors faced off.
The vigorous princess in red dress, with her back to the silent Hollow Knight.
She pointed the long needle backward to signal the other party to stop advancing.
"So, you plan to dig out a deeper truth? This kind of truth is not something that the weak can bear."
She turned and looked directly at the Hollow Knight.
"You have to prove that you are qualified to face the truth. I will not show mercy. My needles are very deadly, and I will not feel sad because of the death of the weak.
Prove to me that you can accept this kingdom's past and take responsibility for its future."
She leaned down, and transparent silk threads danced at the tail of her long needle.
The little knight pulled out the bone nail.
"kill!"
Flying needle!
The Wasp threw out the long needle and shot it towards the Knight.
"Ding!" Block.
The Wasp pulled the thread in her hand, and the long needle flew back, while the cloak behind the knight spread out like moth wings and rushed forward.
The short bone nails chop, but the sharp sword energy extends to an extremely long distance. This is the effect of the talisman from the mantis tribe, the mark of pride.
The Wasp jumped to avoid it, and in mid-air, she raised her hand and flung out a continuous thread, which penetrated everywhere like an iron rope. On the thread, one by one, the spikes exploded, and thin needles were ejected into the sky.
The little knight leaned over, and a transparent carapace ball enveloped him. For a moment, the rain hit the window panes, and the tinkling sounds were heard together. This was the shell of Baldur, which resisted all needle pricks.
The Wasp swooped down with the needle, like a goshawk swooping down on a rabbit. The Knight took a few steps back and easily dodged it.
The bone nails were still chopping, without any unnecessary moves. The little knight kept attacking, forcing the Wasp to retreat step by step.
"Edino!" The Wasp yelled, and a circle of rapidly surging threads erupted around her, like a whirlpool, and any enemies caught in it would be torn apart.
The little knight took off, but the height was not high enough. The next moment, the silk thread was about to cut his body.
A pair of white wings of light stretched out, and the little knight flew higher into the sky.
These are the wings of the emperor, allowing the holder to jump twice in the air.
"Drink!" The Wasp put away the silk thread and threw a long needle into the air. This slender bone nail was as silent and lethal as a javelin, and its trajectory across the sky was like a bird flying through the clouds.
The little knight slashed downwards, then struck the long needle without missing a beat, and used the force to fly upward.
The Wasp jumped up, held the long needle in mid-air, and stabbed straight at the Knight. She followed closely, and the series of attacks were as dense as a net.
The Knight turned into a ball of solid white light and dived downwards. The Wasp felt a huge crisis, but in the end she was unable to dodge the rapid blow.
The light fell to the ground, and the shadows of nothingness exploded like flowers.
This is Spell Darkness, formerly known as Soul Master's Desolate Dive. Later, the little knight met a snail shaman trapped in the crystal on the Crystal Mountain. After breaking the crystal cage, the shaman turned into black light and merged with the little knight.
, upgrade Desolation Dive to a more powerful Darkness Fall.
After receiving such a blow, the Wasp threw out threads and thorns to block the Knight's attack, then jumped aside and gathered soul energy to heal the injury. She also had a container mask, just like Lu Zhengkang.
Taking advantage of the state of nothingness after darkness fell, the Little Knight was not afraid of attacks and summoned a group of shadows that charged forward. The black energy wave exuded destructive power, forcing away the wind and snow, directly hitting the Wasp.
The Wasp was forced to break off the gathering and dodge the attack from the Shadow Soul.
Lu Zhengkang once saw a dissected snail shaman in a research room of the Soul Sanctuary. This shadow soul was the shaman's spell and was taken away by the little knight.
The Wasp was at a disadvantage, knowing that if she didn't use her full strength, it would be difficult to regain the disadvantage. She didn't want to lose both sides, and at the same time she recognized the strength of the Little Knight, so she simply stopped.
"...so powerful...as long as you want it, you can do it.
But after knowing this tragic idea, can you still wield your bone nails? What if you knew your own life experience? "
The little knight remained silent and determined. The Wasp looked at him as if she were seeing a mountainous fortress that would never fall.
She praised: "Then go ahead and do it, Ghost of Hallownest! Go forward. Go and stamp that mark on your shell, and then claim the throne."
After saying that, she jumped up slightly, stabbed the long needle in her hand into the distance, pulled the silk thread and left, looking cool and vigorous.
The little knight retracted the bone nails, continued to move forward, stepped onto the platform below, and came to a hideous ruins.
The entire ruins start from nowhere and extend back into the deep darkness.
The ruins are covered with huge silver tusks, with giant thorns extending outward from the front, surrounding the entrance in the middle, like giant worms with their mouths open, waiting for prey to walk into the mouth.
Here is an abandoned shell, said to be related to the White King.
Entering it is like entering the petrified intestines of an ancient creature, or like an air-dried pupa shell, with layers of rings forming this long structure.
The little knight stood at the entrance and took out a crystal device from his arms. This crystal heart was taken from a huge and ancient mining golem in the Crystal Peak. It is also a necessary item for super sprint.
Huge energy surged out, condensing into a ring of crystal around the little knight. The next moment, the energy storage was completed, the crystal belt shattered, and the little knight was launched forward by the Crystal Heart at a dangerous high speed.
He rushed into the depths of the ruins without slowing down, and then stopped guiding the Crystal Heart. His speed suddenly slowed down, and he floated forward a little distance due to inertia before stopping and falling to the ground.
This is the deepest part of the abandoned shell.
A structure like a broken egg lights up with the seal's image and text, and a four-branched short white halberd is placed inside.
The little knight stretched out his hand and held the halberd. This was the mark of the king.
Marks the bearer as the King of Hallownest.
"Hownest will have a new ruler.
The gates of the kingdom will be opened. "This is a prophecy.
With the separation of the King's Mark.
The abandoned shell begins to crumble.
The little knight sprinted out, but before reaching the exit, he was knocked to the ground by the heavy shell pressed down from above, and was buried deeply under the thick layer of snow.
…
Not long after.
The Wasp rushed into the snow, picked up the little knight, put him on the ground, and flew away.
The little knight stood up and stared at the Wasp's leaving figure.
It's time to go to the appointed place.
In front of the deep nest gate, deep at the edge of the kingdom, the eyes of the two warriors met invisibly.
