Chapter 1434 Noisy, Night
Insects chirp at night and the evening breeze blows.
The fighting on the battlefield during the day seemed to have gone far away. Among the soldiers standing vigil on the city wall, the younger one couldn't help but take a long breath.
But, I immediately started coughing.
The air mixed with the smell of sea still makes young people uncomfortable.
In fact, no one in Navia City will be used to the fishy smell of the sea.
Even if there are some maritime merchants, most of them are suppressing the disgust in their hearts.
As for why?
Look at those monsters in the sea.
Thinking of the situation during the day, the young man couldn't help but shudder.
Although he went to the battlefield, it was still difficult for this young man to forget his fear. Even a veteran of many battles could not do it.
Ignoring death makes people brave and fearless.
But fear of death does not make anyone a coward.
In the end, the one who needs to choose is yourself.
others?
Can't make any decisions for you.
"Rolf, what are you thinking about?"
The companion next to him asked in a low voice.
"Of course it's during the day."
"That gentleman is really awesome."
The young man answered.
"Yes, if I were one-tenth as powerful as that Lord, I might be able to pass the knight test easily."
"The knight assessment..."
"well!"
Hearing his friend's words of 'Knight Assessment', the young man immediately became discouraged.
The knight assessment is held every two years and is open to all followers of the Lady of Thorns under the age of twenty-five.
As long as you pass the test, you can become a member of the Knights of the Temple of Thorns. Of course, you are not a formal knight, but a knight apprentice.
But even so, there are only very few people who pass.
Luo Fei took part in the assessment twice. He was failed in the first preliminary test, and passed the preliminary test in the second time, but was failed again in the retest.
As for the upcoming third knight assessment, Rove does not have any confidence.
Moreover, the young man couldn't help but feel depressed when he thought that it was his last chance.
Subconsciously, Luofu turned his head and looked into the distance.
Whenever something unhappy happens, he always escapes in this way.
Then, the young man was stunned.
What does he see in the distance?
Seems to be……
monster?
But why is it so quiet at the sentry tower?
The doubts in his heart did not make him hesitate. He shouted almost the next moment——
"Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
…
The high-pitched shouts pierced the silence of the night, and the outpost of Aia suddenly boiled up. With a long sword in hand, Nelson, who was fully armed, was the first to rush out of the barracks. Behind him were the knights of the Temple of Thorns , compared to ordinary soldiers, these knights' reactions are undoubtedly faster.
The knights were divided into four teams, two teams climbed to the outer city wall, one team climbed to the inner city wall, and the last team headed to the highest sentry tower.
As soon as they boarded the sentry tower, the group of knights saw the sentry lying dead.
The three sentries were all without exception.
He died miserably, as all the flesh and blood in his body seemed to have been swallowed up, leaving only the skin and bones.
The leading knight did not hesitate and sprinkled a stream of holy water on the three corpses.
Before the holy water fell completely, the corpse suddenly opened its mouth.
Countless flies flew out like a black smoke, rushing toward the group of knights overwhelmingly.
Buzz!
"careful!"
Amidst the dense noise, the leading knight immediately blocked the torch in his hand, and the flying insects were divided into two, half of which stayed in place to attack the knight team, and the other half flew towards the top of the city. , heading straight towards...Rolf.
Rolf, who had never experienced such an attack, tightened his grip on the spear and torch.
Although he didn't see clearly the scene that just happened on the sentry tower, he at least understood that the spear alone couldn't deal with these flies.
Woo!
The flying flies brought a strong wind.
Although he had a torch in his hand like the leading knight, Rolf's strength was not even the slightest bit different from that of the leading knight.
Under the strong wind, the young man lost his footing and fell to the ground.
The fly passed over the young man's head and pounced on his companion behind him.
"Ahhh!"
Amidst the screams, when the young man looked back, the partner he was talking to just now was covered in flies. The young man frantically waved the torch, trying to disperse the flies, but it was useless , his partner became a mummy at a speed visible to the naked eye.
then?
The flies flew towards him again.
The torch was waved faster, but it was almost useless. The flies spread out again and flew towards him in an enveloping manner.
It's over!
Luo Fei felt a chill all over his body.
He never thought death would come so suddenly.
I never thought he would die like this.
"I haven't become a knight yet..."
Rolf murmured softly.
Woo!
There was another sound of breaking through the air, and the young man felt dizzy. When he came back to his senses again, he realized that all the flies flying towards him were blown away and hit the hard city wall, turning into a puddle of mud.
And a black figure was standing in front of him.
"Since you have unfulfilled wishes, pick up your weapons and move forward."
"With his share... together."
In the indifferent words, the black figure pointed to the soldiers who had already died and turned into mummified corpses.
After saying these words, Qin Ran looked outside Aiya's outpost.
As for why the young man was saved?
First smooth.
Second pleasing to the eye.
The other party was willing to save the other party when his partner was in danger instead of running for his life, which made Qin Ran pleasing to his eyes.
"Lord Ryan!"
"Thanks!"
Looking at the black figure, the young man blurted out his voice, but immediately fell silent. In the end, only thanks remained.
He didn't know what to say other than thank you.
Then he looked at his partner.
There was uncontrollable sadness in his eyes.
How can a war not kill people?
Nothing more than a few.
But I know so.
He still felt sad.
He clenched the spear in his hand, stood up, and looked outside the city wall.
He wanted to fight for his partner... no, he wanted to fight with his partner, bent down, and took his partner's spear in his hand.
Then--
Throw it at the monster rushing under the city wall.
He didn't know if it was the right thing to do.
I don't know what will happen if I do this.
But he knew that if he didn't do this, he... wouldn't feel at ease.
puff!
The spear that was infused with all the strength of the young man pierced the body of a charging monster.
The tip of the long spear was sunk in half, but it wasn't fatal at all to rough-skinned and thick-skinned monsters.
Instead, it arouses the monster's ferocity.
It raised its head and roared at the city wall.
then……
The roaring stopped abruptly.
Not only the roar of this monster, but all the other monsters that kept roaring also stopped roaring.
Their bodies stopped in place.
Outside Aiya Outpost, the monsters that launched the charge just before dawn seemed to have been immobilized, standing motionless in place like puppets.
Their eyes were all looking in one direction on the wall of Aiya Outpost.
Or, to be precise, a location.
Kieran's location.
He stood at the top of the city, looking down at these monsters. After a strange light flashed in his eyes, he turned around and left slowly.
The rotating figure drove the crow feather cloak, making a crisp sound.
It was like a signal.
After this crisp sound——
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The heads of the monsters below the city exploded.
Thousands of headless corpses fell down together.
The battlefield was silent.
All people's eyes were attracted by the departing figure.
The night wind continued to blow, and the flying crow feather cloak made a sound.
Unconsciously, there was a little more noise under the night.
