The Rise of the Cemetery

Chapter 0088 The real knight

Antophis snorted angrily, took off his shield, drew out his long sword, and began to accelerate the horse without saying a word.

Li Xun's heart moved, and he slowed down the speed of dismounting by arranging his equipment, but he still gave Antofes and himself protective arrows without losing his duty.

The arrival of the two alarmed the leader of the thieves who were commanding outside. Seeing a person speed up and rush towards them, with a wave of his hand, all the thieves rode up to greet them with grinning grinning.

The distance was less than a hundred meters, and as the two parties accelerated, they quickly approached. The Antophis knight held up a shield to protect his chest, tapped the shield with a long sword in the other, and drank a few prayers such as "tenacity", "courage", and "courage". Together with the horses under his crotch, the light will surge, and it will be blessed with different magical effects. When facing the thieves, he already has four different protections on his body.

A collision resounded across the wilderness, and the first thief turned into a stone that was violently kicked away by the wooden stick. With blood spurting from his mouth and howling, he passed over the heads of several thieves behind, and fell heavily to the ground. His arm has been twisted out of shape. Before the panic-stricken thieves could wait to rein in their horses to take a closer look, Antophis had already charged, passed them, and went straight to the unmoving leader of the thieves. The white light flashed, and the swords of the three thieves on the right fell to the ground and slanted off the horse's back. Blood gushed out from the cut throat, and they couldn't cover it no matter how hard they were covered. The two thieves on the other side were hit by the shield. chest, fell off the horse and rolled all over the floor.

"Church knight, it's a church knight..." An angry scream came from inside the thief.

The leader of the bandit was also surprised, and he was so unlucky that he could meet the church knights in such a remote place while eating food. Has the principality been occupied by the church? He didn't have time to think about it. Seeing the opponent coming straight towards him surrounded by halos, the leader of the bandit didn't dare to deal with the enemy, and urged a few people around him to go up and intercept him.

The church knight is indeed famous, known for being able to fight and fight hard, with a thick skin and a tough life. I never thought that I would meet him today. If it weren't for the fact that there were so few people on the other side, I really might have to retreat.

The thieves who were besieging the caravan over there turned around and rushed over, and soon joined the head of the thieves. The five or six thieves who rushed up to entangle the Antophis knight knew how powerful the church knight was, and they would never confront him head-on. Relying on the strength of his armor and the speed of his horse, Antofes chopped off two more people. Seeing that the remaining ones were too slick, he could only turn his horse's head and prepare to sprint towards the assembled band of thieves.

Li Xun followed behind confidently, looking dumbfounded. To be honest, I have been in this world for 9 months, and Li Xun is very disappointed with the so-called knight class. Where is the legendary fighting spirit? It's just stronger than most fighters, more skilled, and better equipped. Apart from that, is there anything special about it? Seeing that even the knights of the kingdom are like this, Li Xun has classified the knight class into the ranks of ordinary people. Who would have thought that his eyes were opened today, an ordinary church knight could obtain such a powerful magical blessing with just a few prayers, and he was able to kill heartily among the thieves, and now he is facing an array of more than 60 enemies Dare to charge head-on, what courage and bravery it takes!

But he can't let him specialize in beauty, the real battlefield sweeper is the patent of the mage. Li Xun tapped his finger, the magic power surged, and a chain of lightning pierced the sky, rushing into the group of thieves accompanied by the abnormal sound of "Ziz". In an instant, a burnt air filled the audience, and there was also a faint aroma of barbecue. More than ten people fell silently among the thieves. Standing too densely, each holding a sharp knife, without any magic protection, such a good target fully demonstrates the conductivity of electricity.

"Mage..." The shrill scream frightened everyone. Is there a mage here?

The thief leader couldn't help but burst into tears. How fucking lucky is it to meet the combination of church knights and mages. What day is it today? Could it be that the goddess of fortune got into her own bed yesterday?

The exasperated thief turned around and ran away without saying a word, not even daring to say hello. The lightning chain just now exploded right in front of his eyes. If he hadn't thrown the sword so fast, he might have turned into a roast. Whoever takes the lead at this time will attract the attention of the mage. The usually fine and distinctive leather armor looked so stupid now, it was like beckoning affectionately to the mage, and he could only run away while throwing away all the obtrusive things on his body.

Before he could take a few steps, the flames exploded in front of him, and a ten-meter-long and two-meter-wide wall of fire suddenly appeared. The thieves leader, who couldn't brake in time, rushed into the wall of fire screaming and cursing, and when he rushed out from the opposite side, he was already the burning man who kept screaming and screaming, struggling and rolling on the ground for a few times before crawling, becoming A charred corpse that was still burning.

The Antophis knight had crashed into the group of thieves at this time, and the long sword in his hand was flying up and down. In a blink of an eye, seven or eight thieves fell down, and the rest scattered in a hurry, no longer fighting. The knight rode his horse and killed a few more people, then stopped his horse and looked at the still burning wall of fire in a silent trance. The panic-stricken thieves ran away one after another, and went around to both ends of the fire wall. Three more thieves were squeezed into the fire wall by their own people, turning into mourning torches, adding another tragedy to the battlefield.

The people in the car formation were already desperate, but they didn't think it was just a matter of a cup of hot tea. The bandits who were killing them just now were already running wild, and the corpses left on the ground turned over the slope and disappeared without looking back. trace.

For a moment, there was thunderous cheers, and excited people kept waving their arms in salute. Several people in the caravan leader's uniform got out of the car formation with the help of the guards, trotted towards the two, and bowed when they were far away.

Li Xunqu immediately went to have a conversation and then understood the whole story. This caravan was composed of more than a dozen small merchants, and they came to these remote places to buy local specialties. Unexpectedly, they were targeted by bandits, and they were blocked here in a dilemma. Ignoring everyone's gratitude, rejected the merchant's gift, and escorted the caravan to a nearby town. Li Xun asked the way, and then greeted the Anthophis knight. ", "Long live the mage" and started on the road again.

Riding side by side again, the attitude of the two became much closer. They were both surprised at each other's methods, and asked each other to satisfy their curiosity. Only then did Li Xun know that church knights are the main guards of every church. Unlike church priests, they don't need to preach and preach. Apart from honing their martial arts skills, they usually pray with sincerity. Only in this way can they gain some divine grace. Prayers are blessed with divine power.

According to the different types of divine favors obtained, the ranks of church knights can be divided into knight attendants, knights, grand knights, holy knights, and templars. In terms of combat power, the secular knights cannot be compared with the divine knights at all, but the divine knights are servants of the gods and will never serve the local lords and nobles, so they are not liked by the noble group.

Antophis has served the Church of the God of Justice for 27 years, and he is still just an ordinary church knight, so he only has 7 individual blessings of divine grace, and cannot be blessed by groups like the great knights. According to Antophis, he is still far from being a great knight, and it will take at least ten years of hard work to make such a possibility.

This level of difficulty is no less than that of a mage's promotion, which made Li Xun speechless and thankful for himself.

But when it's Li Xun's turn to tell the story, it's inevitable to mix things up. The experience of becoming a level 8 mage in 9 months is comparable to a knight novel, so I can't say it. Li Xun, who searched for his stomach, started from a poor child in the Kingdom of Breland. He had little talent but was from a poor family. He was sold by his family to a mage as a slave. He survived countless magical experiments and escaped. Traveling all over the world, he worked hard to hone himself and finally realized his dream of becoming a mage.

After making up a series of lies, Li Xun's spittle splashed everywhere, and Antophis sighed when he heard it, but it relieved the loneliness in the wilderness. Li Xun even considered whether to complete this lie and treat it as his real life experience, otherwise people will continue to ask later, he makes it up differently every time, and sooner or later he will leak flaws. A suitable one, washing his identity as a black household.

The subsequent itinerary was uneventful, and the two entered the port of Ancona at noon on the 9th day.

When they arrived at their destination, the two of them would go about their own business. They said goodbye to each other, and waved goodbye at the city gate. Li Xun directly stayed in the hotel last time, while the Antophis knight went to the Temple of Justice here to report.

After entering the Port of Ancona, Li Xun found that there were many people dressed as knights. Although many of them were covered with cloaks and smocks, the fine armor and gorgeous lining were still eye-catching, and the church emblem on the chest could not be concealed. .

It seems that the principality's religious policy has undergone major adjustments.

Because this time he rode alone so fast, and there were still 4 days before the other party's agreement, Li Xun didn't have the mood to wander around, so he stayed in the room for half a step, and began to figure out the fourth-level spell in his hand.

Immersed in the study of spells, you will not notice the passage of time, and the agreed time will arrive in a blink of an eye.

Port of Ancona, Pier 7, Cargo Warehouse.

It was late at night, and the hustle and bustle of the port gradually became quieter. Most of the laborers on the pier were reduced, and the rest were squatting or squatting in twos and threes, waiting for calls in the rest area on the shore. The bright magic lights of the lighthouses at the two headlands swept across the nearby coast from time to time, and every quarter of an hour, a team of 30 fully armed patrols walked by the pier.

Basar anxiously paced back and forth at the warehouse door, the appointed time was approaching, wouldn't he not come? I stood on tiptoe and looked around the several streets leading here, but I couldn't see anything clearly under the dim street lights, which aggravated my irritability.

The person who came today was a big shot. If he hadn't been familiar with that person, the immediate supervisor would never have given the initiative to him. After this matter is done, it will save two years of Haizu Jinfeng for the company, and I don't have to travel with the ship all year round, and I can become a supervisor in a certain place. At that time, I took Emma and Sally, and the family could be together every day. Thinking of the good things, my heart was warm, and I rubbed my hands happily, but the cool night breeze from the harbor brought me back to reality.

Why don't you come?
