Chapter 482: Obtaining the Offerings
Chapter 482: Obtaining the Offerings
“Phew… I did succeed after all.
For such knights disturbed in their wisdom, a gradual psychological attack can make them reveal huge weaknesses… Betraying the Holy City is no small matter, and these guys are scared to death.”
Before the battle.
Han Dong, hiding in the back, had been observing this group of Fallen Knights.
When Lucius and Lenze revealed their knight status, a look of surprise passed across the faces of the three fallen knights, a clear display of their fear of ‘betrayal’.
It was because of this that Han Dong chose to use an unorthodox method to attack psychologically.
Gradually breaking down the opponent’s mental defenses, only to deliver a fatal strike.
As for how to make the arrows disappear, the principle is straightforward.
If the opponent uses physical arrows, Han Dong can’t do it at all.
But this Knight Tiffany happens to lean towards the wind attribute, combining her own wind power with crossbow equipment, thus getting rid of the dependence on regular arrows.
These wind arrows are similar to magical attacks.
Han Dong’s Little Demon Eye can clearly see the internal ‘magic network’ and ‘core’.
At the moment the arrow approaches, use a small sand needle almost invisible to the naked eye to quickly puncture the core of the arrow… The wind arrow will disintegrate on its own.
What remains is no more than a strong wind blowing on Han Dong, which is quite refreshing.
At the moment, the magical duel on the other side has also determined the victor, and Han Dong can’t help but admire Lenze’s skill.
“Lenze’s control of the dead spirits, generating groups of them with a wave of his hand, or enhancing and precisely controlling a single Skeleton Soldier… Killing the enemy’s individual skeleton soldier, completely reaching a normal knight’s standard.
He truly deserves to be a person chosen by the Death God himself into the Knight Regiment.”
Two companions were defeated.
The Lionheart Knight Group – Barrett, who is currently confronting Lucius head-on, has fallen into a state of panic… Leaning towards defense, he can’t possibly win without his two offensive teammates.
And also.
The defeat of the Mage Bill can be justified… It was due to a momentary mistake that he was found an opportunity by the Dead Spirit.
But the death of the first archer Tiffany is very strange.
Barrett is not even clear about how Tiffany suddenly ‘died suddenly’.
Mental shaken, fighting spirit faded away.
Clink!
The Blood Sword falls.
Due to a blocking mistake, the Black Crystal Sword in hand flies out… The outcome is decided.
Thumping…
At the moment of life and death, Barrett actually gives up the last dignity of being human and kneels in front of Lucius.
“No… Don’t kill me! I was like this because I was deceived by the count and forcibly fed the Blood Brew… I beseech you to take me back, I am willing to accept any punishment from the Knight’s law.”
However, just after Barrett said these words, he immediately looked up at Lucius.
In the blood-red eyes, there is no hint of pity.
The Blood Sword is already raised in the air.
Lucius is not some kind, noble knight with a heart of a saint… He is the absolute executor, executing the orders given by the Knight Regiment, and eliminating all threats to humanity.
In Lucius’ eyes, traitors like Barrett are even dirtier than the Life outside the City.
Swoosh…
Offering obtained.
The headless body fell heavily backwards.
Just as the three were about to leave the current area, a strange crimson breath oozed out from the headless body.
Barrett’s headless body was disintegrating, and small, crimson tentacles were drilling out from under the skin… The overall life activity seemed to be stronger than when he was alive.
“Hmm? Human form lost… The inner corruption has progressed this far.”
This guy consumed a lot more ‘Blood Brew’ than the other two traitors… The corrupt life spawned by knights’ bodies, their strength could be compared to the demons. Be careful.”
Just as Lucius and Lenze reentered the fighting state,
A shadow quickly flashed past.
Without any preparation, Han Dong ‘brazenly’ approached the headless corpse undergoing anomalous transformation.
A metal-edged syringe appeared in his palm.
The needle pierced the body, gently withdrawing.
A syringe full of Blood Brew essence was drawn into the syringe.
The body, which was undergoing transformation, immediately shriveled up. In less than five seconds, it was reduced to a pile of dust… As for the syringe, Han Dong put it back into his body.
The syringe for collecting ‘Cell Essence’ could not be used on conscious individuals.
Knight Barret had been executed.
The current abnormal situation was merely a result of the subsequent fermentation of the ‘Blood Brew’ in his body… His consciousness had not yet formed, so he was still in a state of death.
Taking advantage of this,
Han Dong decisively stepped forward, directly drawing out the fermenting Blood Brew essence with the syringe, eliminating the danger.
“You…”
Although Lucius was shocked at how Han Dong had managed to do it, considering Han Dong’s dual identity, he did not ask any further questions.
“You did a great job…”
Lucius placed his arm on Han Dong’s shoulder.
In this confrontation, the breakthrough was created by Han Dong.
Even Lucius himself was not quite clear about how Han Dong had ‘fooled’ his opponent to death, but Han Dong did it…
The Necromancer-Lenze’s attitude towards Han Dong changed greatly.
From a distance, he, who was controlling the dead spirits, saw clearly the [Heart Attack] tactic used by Han Dong, and how Han Dong disrupted the opponent’s wisdom step by step.
Therefore, he added Han Dong to a special list in his heart.
“It’s just that Lucius and Lenze’s reputations are too big, which led the opponent to overlook me, creating an opportunity for me.
Also, I believe our seniors must have noticed too.”
Those fallen knights are very afraid that their ‘betrayal’ would be exposed.”
When they found out we were a squad of knights, that fear manifested itself on their faces… We can use this to our advantage and take the initiative.”
Han Dong downplayed his contribution, subtly flattering his seniors, further winning their favor.
“Only cowards betray, they are all a bunch of guilty wretches.”
Returning to the stone gateway that required three offerings,
Jane was startled as she looked at the ‘offerings’ each of the three had brought back… after all, the three were experienced knights, and it seemed like the battle did not last long.
The offerings were embedded in the ‘three grooves’ on the surface of the stone door.
The mark rotated.
The stone door descended.
“Hmm? It’s different…”
Compared to the gloomy stone passageway of the ordinary old tomb before,
The passageway behind the stone door was filled with crimson colors, with soft, bloody red structures resembling nerves covering the entire passageway.
Apparently, after crossing this passageway,
The squad would enter the deep layers of the [Crimson Manor], where the Royal Blood Brew lies hidden.
“Let’s go…” Lucius stepped in without any hesitation.
