Chapter 553 Sky Temple

From Lins's perspective, after learning about the wizard's strength, he should have thought that Asuna was dead.

The entire Norn Kingdom had lost most of its territory, and no one could stop the invasion of the wizard plane.

Asuna was not even a formal spellcaster, and she went directly into the wizard's lair, so she must have gone there without return.

When Lins had just become a knight a few years ago, he was full of ambition to participate in the front-line war, trying to rush directly into the mountains to rescue Asuna.

However, the reality was cruel.

The great knight was as fragile as a piece of paper on that battlefield, and even the mysterious and powerful spellcaster could only barely survive.

That was the first time that Lins intuitively felt his own weakness, and the huge gap in strength almost impacted his cognition of the world.

Originally, I thought that the knight was a very powerful existence, and he could go anywhere in the world.

After Lins survived the battlefield, he trained himself more diligently and embarked on the path of adventurer in order to improve his strength as soon as possible.

Over the years, his strength has indeed improved a lot, and he has had many adventures.

But he has also experienced a lot. The boy who knew nothing at the beginning has now become a vicissitudes of life uncle.

Lins sat by the campfire, holding the wine he had just heated, thinking of the past.

…

At dawn, a ray of sunlight cut through the sky, dividing the mountain forest into yin and yang halves.

The camp gradually became noisy from the quietness of the night. Many people have gotten up and started to pack up and prepare for departure.

Lins woke up a long time ago and directed the members of the adventure team to work in an orderly manner.

Herag was lying on the hay, about to get up and drink a sip of water, when he suddenly felt something and looked behind him.

Behind him was a high mountain with steep cliffs.

This is also the reason why Lins and others used this place as a camp, with a wall like a high wall to lean on so as not to be attacked from all sides.

A moment after Herag looked at the peak, three giant swords fell from the sky and landed around the camp, blocking everyone's retreat.

The three giant swords were about nine meters high, very thick, like walls, and generally sky blue.

Three people in sky blue robes stood on the hilts of the swords, their bodies hidden in the robes, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

At the same time, an old man with a white beard appeared in front of the camp, wearing a bloated robe.

The robe was also sky blue, but there were many complex patterns painted on it.

"Lins, that's the name, right? Where is the betrayer Levi? Why is he not with you?" said the old man with a white beard.

Lins said expressionlessly: "Elder Renai, he is dead."

The other people in the camp quickly formed a defensive formation to guard against these four people.

Although there were only four people on the other side, they brought them a lot of pressure.

Years of adventurer life have long trained them to have the instinct to perceive danger, and these few people brought them a huge sense of threat.

They felt the murderous intent from these four people, and the strong murderous intent almost made them breathless.

These people were willing to accept Herag because Herag had no murderous intent and showed no malice.

Despite this, there were still people who secretly watched Herag all night.

Elder Renai deliberately made an unexpected expression: "Dead? That's a pity. I taught him to practice sword when he was this tall."

He gestured with his hands, with a look of pity on his face.

"Don't be hypocritical here. You know better than me why he died." Lins looked at Renai fiercely.

"Everything he had was given by the Temple. They just wanted him to do something, but he didn't want to. Then we can only take back everything the Temple gave him, including his life." Renai put away that expression and said calmly.

"What you call it is to let him sacrifice hundreds of thousands of residents and become a traitor?" Lins asked angrily.

"Look further ahead, Lins. Levi just didn't understand this truth. Our lives are much longer than ordinary people. It's just that some people died temporarily. These lives will grow again sooner or later, just like the vegetables in the field. But it can bring the temple a longer-term development. Only when we are stronger can we protect more people." Renai said as a matter of course.

"To protect more people, we have to let hundreds of thousands of people die first? It's ridiculous." Lins sneered.

Renai said: "Okay, Lins, I'm not here to reminisce. Since Levi is dead, the Heart of the Earth should be in your hands."

"What Heart of the Earth? I haven't heard of it." Lins said.

Renai smiled and said, "You really can't lie, just like Levi, both are good kids who can't lie. You and your master are exactly the same, no wonder he likes you, who is not very talented."

"You are his only disciple, and the Heart of the Earth must be in your hands."

"Leave it to me, kid."

Renai looked very kind, amiable, and spoke very kindly, like a kind old man.

"I said, I don't know what the Heart of the Earth is." Lins said.

Renai instantly put away his expression and said coldly: "Lins, I know you are not afraid of death, but can you watch them die?"

After Renai finished speaking, he looked around and glanced at the very alert adventurers.

Lins' pupils shrank slightly and his fists clenched tightly.

These adventurers are all companions who have been with Lins through thick and thin. Lins would never watch them die, nor would he want them to die because of him.

"Captain, don't be afraid of him. There are only four of them. We have so many people, so we can kill them easily!" Someone laughed behind him.

Although his words were light-hearted, everyone understood the seriousness of the situation.

"Oh? Really? Young people nowadays are really confident. It's normal that you don't take me seriously when I'm old. But it's a bit too much that you don't take the three Sky Knights seriously either." Rena said.

When the words Sky Knight came out, everyone's heart seemed to be hit hard by a huge hammer.

They are all experienced and knowledgeable adventurers, so they naturally know what Sky Knight represents.

Sky Knight comes from Sky Temple, which is an extremely mysterious and powerful organization.

Sky Temple can be said to be the dream place of countless knights in the Elf Plane, and almost all knights want to join Sky Temple one day.

It is said that the Sky Temple is blessed by the gods, and the knights in the Sky Temple all have the power granted by the gods, and are extremely powerful.

However, the number of knights in the Sky Temple is very small, and they rarely appear in the world.

But once they appear, they are definitely far superior to knights of the same level. (End of this chapter)
