Chapter 295 Gray Mist Knight

After coming out of the corridor, Chu Ming immediately checked the training progress of the Knights. What satisfied him was that the Knights did not slack off because he was away for a few days. They trained on time every day, and the growth rate of the Knights' strength exceeded Chu Ming's expectations.

If they continue to maintain this rate of improvement, the Burning Knights may be able to break through the Deep Blue level in another year, which is much faster than the three years Chu Ming stipulated before.

What is the concept of a Knights' Order composed entirely of Deep Blue Knights?

It is enough to rival the elite knights of some small and medium-sized families in the City of Sauron. Even in the Brick family, it can be regarded as a relatively large force, which can help Chu Ming gain a lot of voice in the family.

What's more, the Burning Knights are not an ordinary Knights' Order. Not only do they have three Lawsmen to assist in the battle, but the knights themselves can also condense a burning will far beyond their own strength. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the strongest Knights' Order under the epic.

It can be said that even if the Burning Knights want to monopolize the entire Sauron City's hiring business, there is no problem. Most of the knights in the city are at the top knights of the blue level. Facing the overlord-level Burning Knights, they have no resistance at all, and their only fate is to be swallowed up by the guild.

Of course, for the sake of keeping a low profile, Chu Ming will not do this, otherwise he will not only provoke some families in Sauron City, but also affect the interests of some members of the Brick family.

"After the Knights break through the deep blue collectively, Master Sidi should have built the Knights' magic-forbidden armor. Just wait for Krono to deliver the magic-forbidden armor, and the Knights' strength will be upgraded to a higher level."

"With the magic-forbidden armor, the Knights' performance when facing the attack of the mage troops is worth looking forward to."

In the training hall, Chu Ming's eyes were pulled away from the knights, and he set his eyes on the fox knight Nathan who was holding a heavy book and thinking hard.

He walked towards Nathan. The man who was reading a book realized that someone was approaching. He looked up and saw that it was Chu Ming. He stood up and said, "Good afternoon, Captain."

Chu Ming smiled and motioned him to sit down, and then sat beside him.

"How is the strengthening law learning going?"

The strengthening law he was talking about was the first crimson law he practiced himself - physical strengthening. After the law field was unfolded, it could strengthen the physical strength of the knight.

The crimson law code in Nathan's hand was not the original. Chu Ming asked the wizard of the newspaper in the city of Sauron to use the engraving magic to print the law code in his memory on a blank book.

Not only this law code, but other law codes were also copied by Chu Ming in the same way. More than a dozen copies were distributed to the guild members who were suspected of having the qualifications of the law. He only kept the original in the training hall.

However, after Pedro visited the guild, Irina put away the original law code on display and put it back in Chu Ming's bookcase.

In fact, compared with the original Law Code, the effect of the law revelation of these rubbings is much weaker, which seems to be caused by the different materials of the books.

Nathan heard Chu Ming's question, carefully closed the Law Code, and said helplessly: "Captain, you are right, the practice of the second crimson law is much more difficult. I have practiced for more than four months, and I have no clue at present."

Chu Ming was not disappointed when he heard that the man had no progress, because this was normal.

Although Nathan has the qualifications of a lawgiver, his qualifications are much worse than Chu Ming. Chu Ming spent half a year without any insights, so how could he understand it so easily.

If Amy was given a second Law Code of Order, with her excellent qualifications as a lawgiver, it would be possible to complete the practice of the second law within half a year.

Unfortunately, Chu Ming did not have the second Law Code of Order in his hands, and he had to wait for Lawrence's news.

"How is your knight power training going? I remember you were already a deep blue knight a long time ago."

When talking about knight training, Nathan was in high spirits, with a bit of joy in his tone, "With the guidance of the captain, my knight level has reached the limit of deep blue, and the progress is much faster than I thought before."

"Before I met you, I set a goal for myself to break through the epic within forty years. Now, I am sure that I can break through to the epic within two years."

Chu Ming patted his shoulder and said with relief: "Nathan, keep working hard, I look forward to you becoming the second epic knight in the Knights."

Nathan's head was full of blood, and he nodded excitedly: "Captain, don't worry, I won't let anyone take away the title of the second epic."

"If I have the opportunity to return to the Simon Kingdom in the future, I have to show off to the villagers and let them know that the poor boy Nathan has also become an epic master."

Chu Ming quietly looked at Nathan who was talking a lot, and he smiled and nodded from time to time.

After the chat, Chu Ming gathered the knights and answered their confusion about training.

…

Four days later, in the courtyard of the Mercenary Guild at night, Chu Ming's legs were rooted to the ground like old tree roots. Between his rhythmic breathing, a golden light flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly swung the dark sword, leaving a lightning mark in the air.

The long sword fell, Chu Ming slowly exhaled, picked up the towel hanging on the tree and wiped the sweat from his training.

"Huh, calculate the time, Pedro should be out of the city to welcome the upcoming Princess Katie, and I don't know when they will arrive in the city of Sauron."

"It seems that the meeting with Princess Katie is inevitable."

"But it seems much quieter than usual today. I always feel like something is going to happen. I hope I'm over-worrying."

Chu Ming shook the bad guess out of his head, put away his sword, went into the bathroom to take a shower, and changed into a clean casual aristocratic robe.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Master, it's time to eat!"

There was a knock on the wooden door of the bathroom, and Irina's naive voice came in from outside.

"coming."

Chu Ming picked up the belt with the sword hanging on it and buckled it tightly around his waist, then walked out.

"I'm almost hungry. Master, let's go quickly."

The little maid took Chu Ming's hand and walked to the back hall.

In the corridor leading to the back hall, Chu Ming saw Jerome walking leisurely.

He asked strangely: "Uncle Jerome, didn't you say that you would not come out for the time being to avoid Pedro?"

Jerome looked back at Chu Ming, waved his hand and said, "Hey, stop talking. I almost vomited after eating the food over there. Why don't you come out to improve the taste?"

"I don't believe that this guy Pedro would be so ungrateful as to visit the master while he is having dinner."

"Forget it, I won't tell you so much, I have to hurry over and get a good seat."

After the man finished speaking, he seemed to be starving to death, his steps became hurried, and he disappeared in front of Chu Ming and Chu Ming as soon as he took a cigarette.

"Uncle Jerome is still the same character."

Chu Ming shook his head helplessly, took Irina's hand, and arrived in the back hall a few minutes later.

Under the illumination of the magic spar lamp, the food on the three dining tables in the back hall exudes an attractive luster, especially the huge roast chicken in the middle of the dining table. Its burnt red sebum is flowing with oil, exuding a hint of smoke. The smell of meat makes people want to eat.

Chu Ming sat in front of the dining table. After all the guild members took their seats, he held the knife and fork and cut the steaks on the delicate plate. Seeing this, the others started to start.

Irina held a fork and stuffed a piece of steak into her mouth, bulging her cheeks, and the sauce on the steak was stained near her red lips. She chewed the steak and said inarticulately: "Good time."

A satisfied smile appeared on the girl's face. She quickly urged Chu Ming on the side: "Master, it's really delicious. Try it quickly."

Chu Ming smiled and said, "When did you not say it was delicious?"

Having said that, he still put the cut steak into his mouth and chewed it slowly.

He praised: "It's really good."

Irina smiled happily and was about to speak when suddenly an inexplicable explosion came from outside, and the magic crystal lamp on the ceiling shook as well as the dining table.

Chu Ming was stunned and suddenly stood up from the chair.

"That was just now..."

Jerome, who was sitting not far away, turned serious and replied: "The aftermath of the battle."

When Chu Ming heard this, he was shocked. The aftermath of the battle could actually reach the guild.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and there was some speculation in his heart.

Jerome stood up and walked out without looking back.

"Ren, put on your armor and follow me."

Chu Ming nodded and glanced at the anxious people in front of the dining table, who all looked at him.

He ordered in a steady voice: "All knights should return to their rooms immediately, put on their armors, and go out with me. The others should stay here."

"Yes, Captain."

The knights could see from Chu Ming's serious expression that this inexplicable shock was not simple. They did not dare to neglect and immediately got up and walked into the courtyard.

Chu Ming watched the knights send off, lowered his head to look at Irina, and wiped the oil stains from the corners of her mouth, "Irina, can you help me get the armor? Just follow the knights back to the courtyard. I also want to ask Ai Mi gave me some instructions.”

"Okay, Master."

Irina nodded obediently, jumped off the chair, and followed the knights to the courtyard.

Chu Ming's eyes left Irina. He glanced at Amy. The girl knew that he had something to say, so she quickly got up and walked to Chu Ming.

"Lord Ren, what are your orders?"

"I may leave the streets of Vasco soon, and you will be in charge of managing the guild. I will leave some knights to assist you."

Amy realized the seriousness of the situation. She nodded directly without being pretentious and said: "Don't worry, leave it to me. I will take good care of everyone."

A few minutes later, before the knights came out, the tiny Irina ran up to Chu Ming with her short legs and panting, holding an armor that was taller than her.

"Young...Master, your armor."

"Thanks."

Chu Ming stroked Irina's head, took the armor, and quickly put it on with the help of Amy and the maids.

At this time, the knights also returned to the back hall one after another. Chu Ming did not wait for everyone to gather and directly ordered: "Everyone follow me out. Miguel, you stay. You and Amy are responsible for the safety of the guild."

Miguel put his arms in front of his chest and said solemnly: "Yes, leader."

Chu Ming nodded, bid farewell to Irina and everyone, and led the knight outside.

When he had just walked out of the door, a hurried sound came from the guild.

"Brother Ren, wait for me, I'll go too."

Milissa wore slender armor, and the helmet covered her face so that others could not see her appearance.

Before Chu Ming could speak, she walked up to Chu Ming and told her family's information:

"I heard that there is a legend that a battle took place outside the city. Now the royal legends stationed in the city have rushed to the place where the battle took place."

"The family's order is that we should guard the walls of Sauron City and not leave the city at will."

Chu Ming's heart was shocked. It was just as he thought. Only the battle between legends would cause such a big commotion.

He hurriedly asked: "Do you know the identity of the legend in the battle?"

Milissa said uncertainly: "I heard from other knights that Lord Pedro left the city today. I don't know where he went. Maybe this battle will be related to him."

"Pedro..."

Chu Ming muttered the man's name and frowned slightly.

"How can it be so coincidental that Pedro just went out to welcome the royal family today and something happened. Could it be that someone is attacking the royal family?"

Milissa's tone was a little surprised, "Who is so bold?"

In Milissa's view, the Clinton royal family has many legends and is the absolute ruler of the Clinton Kingdom. She didn't expect that someone would dare to attack the royal legend.

"Uncle Jerome should know something. Let's catch up with him."

Due to the urgency of time, everyone had no time to go to the stable to lead the warhorse out. In addition, it was said that a battle was taking place outside the city of Sauron. It was unknown how chaotic it would be next, and the warhorse might be lost after being led out.

Chu Ming led the knights to walk on the sparsely populated streets, and he soon saw Jerome talking to other knights.

"Uncle Jerome, what is the situation outside the city of Sauron now?"

Jerome stopped talking to the knight, and the knight bowed slightly to him and left in a hurry.

The man turned his head and looked at Chu Ming, "Let's talk while we walk."

Chu Ming walked forward quickly, parallel to the man, and pricked up his ears to listen to the information he was going to say.

Jerome took a deep breath, his face a little solemn, "You should understand that this kind of battle can only be done by legends. One of the legends fighting outside the city should be Pedro, and the other one, or there may be more than one, is very likely to be the followers of the evil god."

"The followers of the evil god?!"

Milisa couldn't help but exclaimed.

Jerome nodded and didn't continue.

If it was a domestic family force that launched an attack on the royal legend, he would still feel happy and think that the opportunity to resist the royal hegemony has come, but if it was the evil god's followers who were making trouble, the nature of this incident would be much more serious.

Chu Ming pondered for a while and asked, "Uncle Jerome, do you know which evil god's followers it is?"

Jerome shook his head, "Now on the great plain of Sauron City, due to the influence of the aftermath of the battle, there is a gray fog that is difficult to dispel. This gray fog is like a life, floating in the direction of Sauron City. Some monsters that even I have never seen were born in it. I don't know..."

Chu Ming frowned, "A new evil god?"

The evil god who can control the gray fog, plus the evil god who controls flesh and blood and the blasphemous witch in the Violet Principality, there are currently three known evil gods, which is really terrifying.

Chu Ming and his group hurriedly joined the other knights who rushed to the city wall. After running at full speed, they took more than ten minutes to reach the city wall.

"Go up and take a look."

Jerome walked in front, showed his ID card to the guards, and took Chu Ming and a group of knights to the top of the wall.

Chu Ming leaned on the parapet with both hands, looked far away, and saw a light shining at the end of the great plain, illuminating the gray fog that was spreading towards the city of Sauron.

He focused his eyes on the gray fog and seemed to see a group of knights riding war horses hiding in it.

Jerome said: "These are not human beings. I smelled the rotten smell on them from a long distance away."

As the man said, when the gray fog got closer to the city of Sauron, the "knights" in the gray fog made an inhuman roar. They clamped their legs around the war horses under them and ran out of the gray fog quickly, revealing their rotten appearance.

The bodies of these knights were like quicksand, and the gray fog flowed on their bodies, like tattered robes, covering their bodies that were rotten to the point of gray bones and dry muscles. The war horses under their crotch were also so thin that only bones were left, and their manes were floating like gray fog.

Their eye sockets were empty, dark and deep, and Chu Ming saw a hint of madness in them.

Jerome drew his sword, left a word for Chu Ming, and jumped down directly.

"Boy, be ready to support me at any time."

Chu Ming nodded unconsciously, staring at these Gray Mist Knights, and a familiar feeling emerged in his heart.

"Where have I seen these Gray Mist Knights?"

"No, no, these Gray Mist Knights seem to have more than one breath, and the other familiar breath is... blasphemy?"

Chu Ming sensed the chaotic breath of the Gray Mist Knights, and his heart became more and more certain of this guess.

"Why is it blasphemy again?"

He still remembered that the spider he had killed in the Moss Water Forest before was a blasphemous creation, and he didn't expect that he would see the power of blasphemy again today.

"Things are getting more and more complicated..."

Under the city wall, Jerome and a group of Cloud Thunder Knights faced the mighty Gray Mist Knights' charge. He grasped the hilt of his sword and swung it. Thunderclouds gathered and a mighty thunderstorm raged all over the sky, destroying the Gray Mist Army's charge completely. Thunder flashed and exploded on the Gray Mist Knights, and their solid flesh and bones were instantly blown into gray mist.

These gray fog knights were not very strong. Facing a group of epic knights, they had no power to resist. Chu Ming did not even need to take action. The gray fog was quickly dispersed by thunder.

However, the knights did not show any relaxed expressions, because they knew that as long as the legendary battle on the great plains did not end, the gray fog army formed by the aftermath of the battle would continue to attack.
