A foreigner's journey

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal hitting metal continued to ring out on the shore of Lake Lienia.

The old man, a great swordsman from the Reed Country, forced three powerful faded people from the famous borderland to retreat continuously with just one sword. They could only barely save their lives by constantly blocking and dodging, and there was no room for even a little counterattack.

You should know that these three people are all very famous.

The ‘female warrior’ Newenli Lu is the adopted daughter of Sir Baizhi. It is rumored that she is a descendant of the Storm King and has the legal system to inherit the Stonewell City. Newenli, who can drive the Storm Eagle and is proficient in using the former Storm King’s fighting skills, is a rough stone with the qualifications of a ‘king’.

‘The famous Khosrow family’ Diaros was born in the famous Khosrow family. His brother Yuno is the most likely candidate to become the ‘king’ now. The phrase [Khosrow speaks for himself with blood] is not just a casual remark. Even the many rebels headed by Bernard in the Volcano Mansion can’t do anything to Yuno Khosrow. As Yuno’s younger brother, Diaros, who wears the same luxurious silver-iron armor, is also highly anticipated.

‘The Dusk is Coming’ Riley is the chief assassin of the Round Table Hall. He inherited the mantle of the former chief of the Round Table assassins, ‘the head of the secret envoy’ Krep. In the darkness where no blessing can be seen, he becomes the sharpest blade with two fingers, assassinating all the faded ones who deviate from the guidance and go astray, and can even counter the assassins of the Volcano Mansion.

These three strong men are now in a very awkward situation.

All because they are facing the legendary strong man, the old man.

Swish! Assassin Riley was not good at frontal close combat. He wanted to seize the opportunity to retreat to a relatively safe distance and then launch a fatal attack on the old man with the crossbow ‘Krepp’s Black Key’.

But it was this retreating mood that gave the great swordsman ‘old man’ an opportunity.

Boom! The old man slashed down with a cassock, bringing up a large piece of scarlet blood flame. Riley, who was about to take out the crossbow, hurriedly dodged backwards. The blade avoided but the blood flame did not. A large amount of blood flame stained his emissary suit, and it burned extremely vigorously in an instant.

Riley fell to the ground and rolled hurriedly to put out the flames. He saw a red light coming from the corner of his eyes, and the old man raised his knife and slashed at him.

Clang! Nevinli held the double-edged battle axe tightly in both hands and blocked Riley. The moment the axe blade touched the sea of ​​corpses and blood, it trembled violently. Nevinli, who was usually known for her brute force and endurance, almost fell to her knees. She gritted her teeth and mustered all her strength to barely hold on. The muscles in her arms were bulging.

The old man held the knife with both hands and pressed the blade down silently. Nevinli's teeth creaked, and her body couldn't help but shrunk down a little bit.

At this moment, the sound of a whistling whip came from behind the old man. In order to save his teammates, the coward Diaros still plucked up the courage to attack the old man. He held a huge shield in his left hand to block in front of him, and waved the family-inherited Khoslau petal whip with his right hand. The long whip covered with sharp metal thorn petals broke through the moist air and whistled towards the old man.

The old man suddenly lowered his body and retracted his sword. Nie Wenli lost her balance and raised her double-edged battle axe upwards, just in time to be entangled with the incoming petal whip, which wrapped around the axe blade and axe handle several times.

Before the two separated their weapons, the old man jumped up and chopped, and the bloody sea of ​​corpses wrapped in blood flames neatly cut off the petal whip that was forced to stretch straight.

The broken petal blades flew in all directions, and Nie Wenli blocked it with one hand. A large amount of metal debris was deeply inserted into her chest, abdomen, thighs and arms, and blood was pouring out.

She roared and wanted to hold the battle axe tightly to fight the old man, but she saw the blood light rising into the sky. The power of the Storm King in her blood allowed her to react very quickly and hurriedly evaded to the side.

The knife light fell, and Nie Wenli's left arm full of metal debris flew into the air. Nie Wenli, whose arm was cut off by a knife, lost her balance and fell to the ground.

Ding ding ding! The old man held a knife in his right hand and a short sword with a wavy backfire pattern in his left hand. He swung it a few times and deflected all the crossbow arrows shot by Riley.

Then the old man turned around and stomped heavily on the back of Diaros who was trying to escape, knocking him to the ground with a clang, and slashed Diaros' back with a knife.

Ne Wenli didn't care about her left arm being cut off. She grabbed the giant axe in her right hand and roared to launch the storm fighting skills.

But a cassock slash fell on her chest, leaving a huge wound from her right shoulder to her left ribs that was so deep that her internal organs could be seen. She stammered a few times but couldn't make a sound. She just spit out a lot of bubbles and blood, and fell to the ground with a plop.

In a flash, the battle was decided.

The old man held the sea of ​​corpses and blood in his hand and walked towards Riley in silence. The latter wanted to crawl back in fear but couldn't crawl fast at all, because when the petal whip broke just now, many petal blades also pierced his body, especially his hands and feet, and the blood flame on his body had not yet extinguished, which made it difficult for him to move.

Standing in front of Riley, the old man slightly spread his legs and held the handle of the bloody sea with both hands above his head, and a hoarse and low voice sounded:

"...Are you the successor of Krepp? You are so weak. But for my lord and the reward promised to me by that lord, just do it well..."

Puff!

The blade fell, this time without the blessing of blood flames, only the bloody sea blade fell. Riley was split in two from head to toe, shook twice and fell to the ground, and a large pool of blood immediately appeared under him.

The old man shook the blade and turned his head to look behind him.

Nie Wenli stood up again with her own perseverance, waving the double-edged battle axe with one arm while making an indistinct roar:

"For Sir Baizhi!"

The old man took a few steps back to avoid Nevinli's slash, sheathed the bloody corpse, and bowed slightly to the female warrior to show respect.

Then, the blade and the axe blade collided again.

Not far away, Diaros, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, barely climbed up. Because of the amazing defense of his family armor, he was not killed by the slash. He was completely frightened and just looked back at Nevinli who was fighting bloody, and then fled the battlefield in a hurry.

Although he had the surname of the famous Khoslau, Diaros was a coward.

After stumbling away for dozens of meters, Diaros immediately couldn't wait to activate the seal given to them by Sir Baizhi, and the whole person was swept into the golden light and floated away.

At this time, in the round table hall of the 'Great Blessing', Sir Baizhi was talking with other faded people.

Suddenly, the clergyman Colin in the corridor exclaimed: "Diaros, what happened to you... Queen Marika! You are seriously injured!"

Everyone rushed to the corridor and found that Diaros, covered in blood, stumbled forward a few steps, and then leaned against the wall and gasped.

Sir Baizhi immediately stepped forward to support him: "Diaros, what happened? Where is Nevenli? Where is Riley?"

"Dead... dead... they are all dead... Heather and the Blood King colluded and sent the old man to stop us!"

Tears flowed down Diaros' pale face stained with blood, and he cried loudly:

"The old man is an out-and-out Shura! Nevenli and Riley are all dead! All dead!"

"Then you abandoned Riley and Nevenli and escaped back?" Magician Roger shouted angrily.

"Please don't blame him too much, Lord Roger. Lord Diaros is frightened. Don't worry, the Round Table Hall is independent of time and space, and it's safe here." The dead sleeping girl Fia gently comforted.

"Wait... Diaros, how did you get back to the Round Table Hall?"

Sir Baizhi suddenly asked vigilantly.

"The situation was urgent at the time, and I used the seal you gave me to connect to the Great Blessing of the Round Table Hall." Diaros said tremblingly.

"Not good... The old man may have observed the way you use the seal, and then used Nevenli's--"

Before Sir Baizhi finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from afar.

I saw that the main door of the Round Table Hall, which had been closed and never opened, was heavily knocked open, and the door hit the wall twice.

Heather, wearing a dark blue windbreaker, held the golden seal engraved with Sir Baizhi's emblem and walked into the front hall of the Round Table Hall.

"This is the Hall of the Round Table, where the Faded Ones who intend to resist me gather."

He looked around, threw the seal on the carpet and crushed it with one foot:

"Very good, this place belongs to me. My dears, come in."

Galahad, Bedivere, Kay, Lanmarlock... one after another, the Knights of the Round Table walked in from the darkness outside the door. Except for Lancelot, Tristan and Gawain, all the Knights of the Round Table were present.

The last one to come in was King Arthur, whose majestic and extraordinary posture made it difficult for the Faded Ones to breathe smoothly.

Sir Baizhi protected everyone in front of him, quietly took out an exquisite seal and crushed it, and he wanted to leave here immediately.

But nothing happened. The Hall of the Round Table, which was independent of time and space, seemed to be completely closed, and no escape was allowed.

"If you can break through the time and space blockade set by ZERO, I will laugh at him severely."

Heather smiled and snapped her fingers:

"Gentlemen, clear the area."
