The young man opened his eyes slightly and took about half a second to clear his thoughts before finally remembering that he had been poisoned and fainted. So, how long had it passed since he fainted? Daniel
I can't help but feel a little confused.
"Are you awake?" A voice rang in the young knight's ears, and Daniel immediately recognized the owner of the voice--Juliet Rutherford.
"I...where am I?" the young man asked in a low voice with a hoarse voice.
"You are in the battleship of Great Britain--Rodel." The blond girl replied.
"Rodel?" Daniel still looked confused.
"It's an expedition ship. We're on our way to Neverland." Juliet further explained and poured a glass of water from the kettle on the side to lubricate Daniel.
Daniel took the cup, drank the water in one gulp, calmed down temporarily, and then began to think about his situation.
By the way, because he has a special resistance to poison, he was spotted by the Knight of the Round Table Parcival and asked him to participate in the expedition to Neverland.
In that terrifying demonic realm, there are countless dangerous areas that mortals cannot easily set foot on, such as woods full of poisonous miasma. The Knights of the Round Table must also wear heavy protective clothing to enter, but Daniel can walk directly in the miasma without wearing anything.
Among them------this is the "privilege" of him who transformed into a dark green knight with succubus blood flowing in his body.
However, this does not bring any particular advantage to Daniel, it is just because he does not need to wear heavy armor and will be more flexible when rolling and dodging. The dangerous monsters in this area can still easily kill him who lacks ability.
"What's wrong? Is he awake?" Hearing a small commotion in the room, someone else walked in. It was Percival, the Knight of the Round Table.
"You brought me directly to the Land of Neverland without asking me?" Daniel couldn't help but feel angry when he saw the Knights of the Round Table. He didn't dare to scold his superiors openly, so he just complained in a low voice.
That's all.
"Oh, this?" Pasiva looked at the sea outside from the window of the room a little absent-mindedly, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to enter Neverland. There is a teleportation device on the ship. If you use that, you can go back to Great Britain directly. But.
Now that you are here, why not get off the boat and take a look around to increase your knowledge. Ordinary people will never have the opportunity to set foot in the Land of Nowhere."
Daniel didn't say anything. He knew that it was all a ruse. But he also knew that the Knight of the Round Table, Percival, must have great expectations for him, so he secretly took Daniel with him despite the opposition of everyone in the knights.
Come aboard this battleship.
Although the Neverland should be an extremely dangerous area, Daniel might not be able to survive for even a minute if he sets foot in this area randomly. However, since he is so expected, he can't just show weakness like this, right? This is even a good thing for him
Performance, a good opportunity to accelerate promotion.
"Okay, I'll just go." Daniel replied.
As if he saw the Black Iron Knight boy fishing, Knight Persiva of the Round Table smiled happily, took out a small instrument from his arms and threw it to the boy: "Put this on, it can detect your vital signs.
In this way, we can measure your limit at any time. When walking in the miasma forest, you should always pay attention to the reading of this meter, because there are also areas with extremely toxic poisons in the forest. When the alarm of the meter sounds, you should retreat quickly.
Already."
Daniel didn't say anything and put on the instrument respectfully. Moreover, this thing was not a watch, but something worn around his neck like a dog collar. When Daniel put this on, he couldn't help feeling slightly unhappy.
However, this thing is an important life-saving tool. Once he puts it on, he doesn't intend to take it off easily. At least in this dangerous [Neverland], he doesn't dare to take off the collar easily.
Down.
With a slight rumble from outside the battleship, the British battleship Rodel docked.
Is there a never-ending land outside? Daniel couldn't help but wonder. What a terrifying ghost place it must be, capable of eating alive anyone who sets foot in it at any time?
"Come with me." Knight of the Round Table Percival said: "And Juliet, go back to Great Britain and finish everything you are doing."
"Is it really okay if I don't come with you?" the blonde girl asked with a smile.
"Who has been complaining before that the protective clothing is filled with the smell of men's sweat?" Pasiva also replied humorously: "But if you like, let you wear protective clothing filled with the smell of sweat."
It’s not impossible to take a walk outside.”
"Ah ha ha ha, I won't do it." Juliet excused herself.
Ten minutes later, a group of people put on protective clothing and gathered on the deck of the battleship. Daniel, who was traveling in light clothing without any protective clothing, naturally became the focus of everyone's attention.
"I'll make a bet with ten gold coins. That kid can only live for ten minutes at most in the miasma forest." One of the knights whispered to his colleagues. He thought his voice was low enough that Daniel would not be able to hear him clearly.
Unfortunately this is not the case.
Daniel didn't say much, but tried to identify acquaintances he could hug among the knights wearing protective clothing. Fortunately, the protective clothing of the Knights of the Round Table was higher than that of ordinary knights. Among the crowd,
There are three Knights of the Round Table wearing this kind of dark blue high-standard protective clothing. And one of these three must be Knight of the Round Table Persiva.
"Quiet!" One of the Knights of the Round Table said at this time, asking the crowd to quiet down: "I know that everyone present has already understood the content of this mission, but for the sake of safety, I'll repeat it again."
Daniel thought to himself, it's a good thing that you retell the mission content just to be on the safe side, otherwise I would have suffered a lot if I didn't know about it from beginning to end.
"Our mission this time is very simple. It is to reactivate the previously buried detectors in the Miasma Forest area of Neverland and conduct manual exploration of unexplored areas in this area. Although the detectors show this
There are no abnormalities in this area. I think the possibility of finding [that thing] is very small. However, recent reports point out that the detector is not omnipotent. There is also the possibility that it is affected by specific electromagnetic shielding and cannot detect properly.
of."
Everyone was whispering in low voices.
"Silence! Silence! Do you have any questions?" The Knight of the Round Table was a little unhappy.
"But, Lord Draven." A knight said: "The terrain of the Miasma Forest is so complex and the area is so huge. It is not just us who can simply complete the search! And the air in the protective clothing
The filtration system can only last for a maximum of three hours..."
"Then you need to use your brains more and focus on finding the most suspicious parts of this forest." The Knight of the Round Table smiled lightly and said: "In any case, if you haven't found anything, we will have no choice but to
Return to the battleship every three hours to resupply, and repeat this cycle until the entire area is captured. His Majesty King Arthur has given an explicit order, it is better to spend time and effort than to leak any corner!"
That's of course. Daniel murmured in his heart. After all, there may be a [certain treasure] that those in Great Britain want to find buried in this area. I'm afraid they won't give up until they get the treasure.
"In the worst case scenario," Draven, the knight of the round table, turned to look at the only young black iron knight in the crowd who was not wearing any protective clothing, and snorted coldly: "Don't we have someone here who can survive the miasma without supplies?"
A guy who can move around freely? Just leave all the troubles to him!"
At this point, almost every knight present laughed maliciously, which made Daniel feel terrified. In fact, that's right, most of the knights here are high-ranking knights of Great Britain, and they are all experienced in many battles. Even though
Not to mention the three Knights of the Round Table, almost all of the remaining knights are Gaia Knights or Honorary Gaia Knights, and the lowest ranking person is at least a Golden Knight.
And Daniel, a mere black iron knight, to put it bluntly, he was just a pawn who had just started, was lucky enough to sneak into this group of big shots, and advance and retreat together with this group of high-level knights in this area full of death. This was not supposed to be possible.
It's a good thing like a dream. And the bargaining chip that makes this dream-like reality come true is Daniel's poison-resistant physique mutated by the succubus' poison.
Daniel shouldn't be here in the first place. But now that he's here, sure enough, he still can't just return halfway without doing anything. He uses practical actions to make these knights who are far higher in rank and more powerful than him in combat
See, even the lowest newcomer in the Knights still has backbone.
Five minutes later, the exploration team, consisting of three knights and a total of seven teams, began to enter the miasma forest.
"Don't hold back." One of the knights leading the team said to Daniel. Judging from the special-colored protective clothing, this knight should be a Gaia knight. Daniel did not reply and just followed the others quietly.
The group of people stepped into the jungle that was full of weeds. Daniel was a little curious why he was not included in the group with the Knight of the Round Table Percival. But then he thought about it, Percival brought Daniel to a place like this to estimate
He has already used many connections, and he will definitely not continue to take care of Daniel in order to avoid suspicion. Next, Daniel can only rely on himself. With his skills, can he survive in this forest with a harsh environment and full of murderous intentions?
?
While the young black iron knight was wondering, a strange mist began to float around him.
