But.
In his opinion, swinging the sword at the man with grayish-white skin was tantamount to jumping into an abyss.
And if he returned to the royal city, the king would definitely crush his head.
What to do?
What should he do?
Escape?
No, he couldn't escape.
The king is the sky! The king is the world! The king is everywhere! The king is omnipotent!
He couldn't escape!
He would definitely be found by the king, and then his fragile skull would be smashed bit by bit.
But he wanted to live.
Not for the king, but for himself...
"Pop!"
Without any warning, the black-armored knight's head exploded.
Like a firecracker with the fuse burning to the end, it exploded into blood flowers all over the sky.
With a "thump", the headless corpse knelt on the ground in the direction of the royal city, and his upper body fell over, completing the last kowtow of his life.

In the distant royal city, the tyrant who was taking a nap on the throne opened his eyes.
He felt that one of his inferior generals had just lost his life.
And in the last moment of his life, the emotion he conveyed back was endless fear.
To be honest, this is quite rare.
Since the world's last great secret master Rhine died at his hands, it has been a long time since there has been an existence that can scare his generals.
"That desert that separates the continent, ha, it's interesting, I'll go and see it myself later," the tyrant thought, closing his eyes.
Having just finished this deep-sea marathon that lasted for two hundred years, he should give himself a break and take a short nap.

In the living room of the ancient desert city.
It seems that Mowent's injury has almost healed, and he is chatting with Kalidora about his experiences along the way.
Jilunini sat on Osa's lap, talking to Osa while rubbing the cat hair on his face.
Osa didn't care, so she rubbed it as she pleased.
Ya Yin leaned against the window, looking at the city outside and thinking about something alone, holding a cup of shaved ice in her hand, putting a spoonful into her mouth.
As for Liu Ji, he was sitting in front of Misa, staring at him.
He had just introduced himself to everyone and the situation here. At first, Liu Ji didn't find anything wrong when listening to his introduction, but then he suddenly realized a problem.
He could actually understand what this person said!
And he was very sure that this person was not speaking any language he knew, but listening to him speak was like having subtitles, and he could understand it.
It was a ghost.
And Misa also stared at Liu Ji. He always felt that there was something familiar about this person, but he just couldn't remember what it was.
Liu Ji was silent for a moment, and tried to ask in Chinese: "Well, hello, can you understand what I'm saying?"
"Huh?" When he heard Liu Ji speak, Misa immediately showed a surprised expression.
He had never heard of Liu Ji's language!
No, it's not that I haven't heard it before. This pronunciation doesn't fit any language in this world. He is 90% sure that this is not the language of this world!
Suddenly, he realized where his familiar feeling came from...
"Uh, you really don't understand?" Liu Ji saw that Misa didn't respond, and subconsciously thought that Misa didn't understand, so he quickly said sorry with a spell.
"Ah no, wait, you don't have to say the spell," Misa waved his hand, "I can understand what you are saying."
"Huh?!" Liu Ji was stunned, and then his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, "Huh?! You can understand? Do you also speak Chinese?"
"Oh, this language is called Chinese, right? Unfortunately, I don't know it," Misa spread his hands, "but even if I don't know it, I can understand it, and I can even make you think I'm speaking Chinese."
"Hey... it can be like this, it's amazing," Liu Ji was a little surprised.
"No, compared to me, you may be more amazing," Misa rubbed his temple and licked his lips. Then, just as he said, Liu Ji clearly heard him say in Chinese, "You... should be a brave man, right?"
"Ah?" Liu Ji was stunned, tilted his head, and asked in confusion, "Yong... swimmer? Uh, I can swim, is that what you mean?"
"No, no, no, uh, let me put it another way," Misa continued in Chinese, "First of all, you should be from another world, right?"
Liu Ji was shocked, and subconsciously thought "How does he know?"
But the next second he reacted. His language, which was not heard by the world, was heard by a person who could understand any language. If there was a similar precedent before, it would be natural for him to be guessed.
Seeing Liu Ji's dull reaction, Misa smiled and said, "It seems that I was right... By the way, there should be stories about heroes saving the world in your original world, right?"
"Ah, yes, there are quite a lot," Liu Ji nodded, "It's just that the demons in the recent stories are either loli or big-breasted girls... Wait, heroes? Are you talking about me?"
"Yes, it's you," Misa said with a subtle expression, "and... you seem to have retired?"
33. What? I lost the protagonist's halo because I was a potato?
Ya Yin was a little surprised. Others present may not have noticed, but she, who had been observing the surrounding environment, noticed that Liu Ji was actually chatting with Misa.
And the two of them were talking in the same language that she had never heard of.
But think about it, Liu Ji is from the other side of the desert, so it makes sense that someone here can speak the same language as him.
Watching Liu Ji and Misa talking one sentence after another, Ya Yin hugged her knees unconsciously and shrank in the chair.
For some reason, she felt bad...
Think about it, Liu Ji has only known them for more than a week, and she doesn't even know Liu Ji's name. She just teaches Liu Ji spells on her own and wants to be his teacher.
In the end, she did this just to recall her past.
Sometimes she thought that Liu Ji might not need to learn any magic at all.
He can turn into a potato, a giant bear, or even...
If she was not mistaken, Liu Ji seemed to have turned into an elemental elf for a moment before.
She had never heard of such an ability, even the druids who were proud of their shape-changing abilities were not as outrageous as him.
With such abilities, it seems unnecessary to learn any magic. Perhaps he learned spells just to talk to them.
Now that he has found another person with whom he can communicate directly, will he still be willing to learn spells?
Yayin sighed. It was originally a happy thing to reunite with her companions, but she just felt a little...
"Tsk, no, I'm thinking about something messy," Yayin sighed.
It would be best if Liu Ji was willing to follow them, but if Liu Ji decided to leave, she had no reason to stop him.
If that day really came, she could just accept other students in the future.
It's not a big deal.
The most urgent thing now is to find a way to gather all the separated companions, cross the desert, open up new land, continue to practice and research.
Then one day...
"Crunch"!
Yayin took a big bite of shaved ice.
She looked out the window...
Over there, she had someone to kill.
Even if she had to risk her life, she would kill her.

"I am... a hero?" Liu Ji looked at Misa in astonishment.
"Well," Misa nodded, "to be precise, I am a retired hero."
"Uh..." Liu Ji blinked, "What's the difference?"
"The difference is that the blessing from the world that a hero should have is not on you," Misa spread his hands.
"What's the use of that blessing?" Liu Ji asked.
"It can make your luck very good, and it can allow you to communicate with people regardless of language barriers, and eventually learn a universal communication method like me," Misa said, "and it can make people want to help you unconsciously when they meet you, and even if you casually rummage through other people's cabinets and break other people's jars, no one will say anything. The women you meet on the journey will have an inexplicable liking for you, and soon you can gain a bunch of confidantes, and before you become stronger, it can also make you unconsciously avoid disasters that will take your life."
Liu Ji looked at Misa with a confused face, and it took a long time before he spit out "Fuck".
Isn't this too cool?
Isn't this the number one divine weapon, the protagonist's halo?
Did he once possess this thing? Why didn't he feel it?
Oh no, could it be that the reason why the bear didn't climb up the tree to beat him to death was because of this?
"Well, so, as a retired hero, you..." Misa propped up his face and looked Liu Ji up and down, "Didn't you save the world?"
"Ah? Uh, this..." Liu Ji scratched his head, "To be honest, I, how should I put it, since I came to this world, I have become a potato."
"Potato?" Misa was stunned, "Why did you become a potato?"
"I don't know too much, I wanted to change at that time, and then I changed," Liu Ji scratched his head, "In fact, I have been maintaining the form of a potato until recently, and I don't know what happened during this period..."
Misa put one hand on his temple, looked at Liu Ji with a confused face, pondered for a moment, and asked: "Then... do you know how long it has been in between?"
"Uh, not very clear," Liu Ji shrugged, "After turning into a potato, the concept of time is more vague, I guess it may be only a dozen or twenty years?"
"Only a dozen or twenty years?" Misa looked at Liu Ji with disbelief.
"Uh... then, thirty or forty years? Or how much more do you think is appropriate?" Liu Ji asked back.
"You're buying groceries with me, how can I add you?" Misa didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I don't know," Liu Ji spread his hands, "What can I do, I don't have a mobile calendar or anything like that."
"Well... never mind, it doesn't matter," Misa shrugged, "It's just that it's quite miserable that you lost your communication skills for no reason, but I see you seem to be learning a spell?"
"Yes, that girl over there is teaching me a spell," Liu Ji said embarrassedly, "It's a bit embarrassing to say that I have to let such a young girl teach me to speak word by word."
"Girl?" Misa raised his eyebrows, looked at Yayin with a subtle expression, and then looked at Liu Ji, "Well... Fortunately, you don't speak the same language, if she heard you say that, she probably wouldn't be willing to teach you back."
"Huh? Why?" Liu Ji was stunned.
"Because she is already in her twenties. Although she is still very young, her magical attainments are already quite high. It is really inappropriate to call a girl this name. It may even be taken as an insult if the listener intends it." Mass took a sip. Tea, "But I don't blame you for being wrong. The demon spirit race is very strange. Pure-blooded demon spirits are usually three to four meters tall. But once mixed with other races, they will end up like her, looking like a human being." Human race, but the height is much lower than the average human. The hybrid of the demon and Miffy tribe may even be only sixty or seventy centimeters tall."
"This, hiss..." Liu Ji took a breath of air, "Indeed, this, luckily I don't understand the language."
"Well, fortunately," Mass smiled, "You have to know that it's not easy to meet someone in this world who is willing to teach you spells. If I hadn't felt that the world's blessings were not on you, otherwise I would have suspected that she was influenced by The impact of this blessing.”
As he spoke, Mass took another sip of tea and continued: "You must know that teaching people mantras is a very troublesome thing. First of all, it depends on talent. Almost everyone's teaching plan is not the same, and the more this thing gets deeper, Learning becomes more complicated. Even great magicians often have hundreds or thousands of students. Only a few of them are their real students, and the rest are just odd jobs. "
Having said this, Mass patted Liu Ji on the shoulder and said, "So, do you understand how lucky you are to be the student of a powerful magician, right?"
"But..." Liu Ji scratched his head, "Although I feel that she is teaching me very carefully, she has no reason. After all, we have only known each other for a week... I think maybe she just has no other choice now. student, so you are more interested in me?”
"No, no, no, the time we've known each other doesn't determine anything, and I can see that she really cares about you as a student," Miss said, raising her chin in Yayin's direction, "Look, just because of me She's a little jealous and sulky now that she can chat with you. I've seen this expression countless times in school when she was being fought over by major mystics."
"So, I won't occupy you anymore. Go ahead. It would be too rude to make the guests unhappy because of my behavior as the master," Miss said, patting Liu Ji on the back.
"Ah, wait, I have one more thing to ask," Liu Ji said, "As this, uh, retired warrior, do I have to... uh, do something for the world or something?"
"No, nothing is needed," Mass shrugged, "You also said that you are a retired warrior. You have no blessings and no responsibilities. You can act freely and do whatever you want...
