Chapter 256 Trap

Just when Malu was still thinking about how to get the rare ingredients that had just appeared.

The chessboard map suddenly changed again.

That was the location of Levi, the deputy leader of the Paladin Order. Unlike other knights, Levi did not participate in this search. He stood there almost without moving.

Even the screams and sounds of fighting in the woods not long ago, he seemed not to hear.

The black armor just stood there like a rock.

About half a minute later, a woman next to him, about thirty years old, plump, holding a golden staff, opened her eyes.

"I found her."

Levi spoke again and asked, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure, I've fought with her before, and I'm familiar with her magic." The woman holding the golden staff said.

"Very good." Levi nodded.

The woman holding the golden staff then reminded, "You said that as long as I take you to find the Shrike, you will let me and my daughter go..."

She suddenly stopped talking halfway because Levi turned his head.

She could only see the cold helmet without any expression, and could not know what the person behind the helmet was thinking.

Fortunately, Levi's voice soon sounded again, with a hint of playfulness, "You took me to find the Shrike, didn't you bring me to the Shrike?"

The woman holding the golden staff trembled in her heart when she heard the words, and then knelt on one knee, "Lord of Order, nothing can be hidden from your eyes, the Shrike set this trap to deal with you.

"But I didn't know that you had seen through her tricks a long time ago, and in turn used this action to find her whereabouts, and took this opportunity to clean up the Knights again, and cleaned up all the knights who you thought were not firm in their faith, and solved the hidden dangers in the future. "

Levi shook his head, "You are wrong about one thing, the faith of those people I brought is very firm, otherwise the Shrike would have sensed the danger before I took action, but it's a pity that their faith is a little too firm. "

"Ah? "The middle-aged witch lying on the ground showed a look of confusion on her face.

Levi patiently explained to her, "I am only the deputy leader of the Paladin Order. Although I have been handling all the affairs of the Paladin Order in recent years, there is still a leader above me.

"He is the real leader of the Paladin Order, but unfortunately he is too old and has all the problems that old people have, such as poor energy, slow reaction, and most importantly, a small courage.

"When encountering troubles, he is always unwilling to face them head-on, always thinking of escaping, turning big things into small things, and it is because of his connivance that the Shrike was created, allowing those fallen witches to develop to this point today, which indirectly led to the accident that occurred in the Goradot Mountains not long ago.

"I need to correct the mistakes he made. It is not enough to catch the Shrike. I have to prevent new Shrike from appearing in the future, so I must replace him, take that position, and become the new leader of the Paladin Order."

The woman holding the golden staff was a little confused at first, but after hearing the end, she finally understood what Levi wanted to do.

"Are all the knights you summoned this time supporters of that lord?"

"Yes." Levi nodded and admitted it very straightforwardly.

The heart of the woman holding the golden staff also sank.

Levi should not have told others about the secret of the power struggle among the top leaders of the Paladin Order.

Unless... he no longer intends to keep anyone alive.

The deputy leader of the Paladin Order admired the fear on the face of the middle-aged witch for a while before continuing.

"Although your strength is average, your skills are quite rare. I will still be able to use you in the future. Don't leave, stay with me, and I will take your daughter back later."

The woman holding the golden staff didn't know what Levi was thinking, but what made her helpless was that she also knew that she didn't refuse the other party's power, so she could only bow and salute.

"I am willing to be your witch, follow you, serve you, never betray you, and become the sharp blade in your hand, Lord Knight."

"Very good." Levi decided the fate of the people around him with just a few words, and then said, "Take me to find the Shrike."

However, before he set out, someone had already come to the door.

13 witches walked out of the forest. Their ages ranged from teenagers to dozens of years old. Most of their clothes were dirty, and their equipment was also varied, which looked a bit ridiculous.

However, if you know the origin of these equipment, probably no one can laugh.

They are like a group of hungry wolves with red eyes, eyeing new prey again!

However, Levi, who was surrounded by them, did not look panicked at all, even though the knights he brought were dead and wounded, leaving only a few.

But this did not seem to affect Levi's confidence at all.

The 13 fallen witches did not have any extra nonsense, and did not even need to communicate. As if they had a telepathic connection, they attacked the deputy leader of the Holy Knights in front of them together.

As a result, one of them lost her head as soon as they started fighting. Another of her companions also had a black hole in her chest from the whistling bullets.

The harvest had just begun!

Those fallen witches fell one after another as if they were being targeted by an invisible vengeful spirit.

Someone barely caught a glimpse of a figure in the shadow, but the shadow's movements were too fast.

They had no time to launch an attack, and the man had already entered another shadow.

In addition, there was a gunman hiding in the dark, who kept shooting cold guns.

She didn't shoot frequently, but each bullet could take a life.

Efficient and stable.

In addition, Levi had a mage under his command, who was also busy, using magic to distort the space.

The fallen witch on the opposite side wanted to take Levi away by force with the advantage of numbers, but she couldn't get close to the target despite trying every possible means.

And their attacks, whether long-range or close combat, were also very off.

Soon, only two of the 13 fallen witches were still able to fight.

However, even though they knew they were going to die, they still didn't retreat, and their eyes were full of fighting spirit.

There was even an older witch who took the initiative to enter a lost state, and her body visibly swelled up, becoming like a balloon, but before the balloon burst.

A scimitar had already cut her throat in advance, and then her body was blocked in the middle by the earth wall rising from the ground.

The explosion that followed made the earth shake, and the earth wall that had just been summoned was blown away in half. Fortunately, the remaining aftermath could no longer threaten others.

But Levi could feel that the plants around him were obviously agitated.

He looked at the time and realized that he had to find the Shrike within half an hour. Fortunately, such a long time was enough for him.
