Alien Knights

Under the attack of the monster's giant axe, the knight blocked from left to right, extremely embarrassed.

"I have to find a way to help him!" Todd understood that if things went on like this, Alfonso alone would not be able to contend with this "Frankenstein".

Just as he was looking around for something to use, Leslie's actions refreshed his understanding of the boy.

First, the flames in both hands were extinguished, and then the thick cloth jacket was thrown to the ground, and the single shirt with the lining was also taken off. Leslie, whose back was engraved with the image of a lion's roar in red ink, squatted down halfway, hugging his arms into his arms, his face flushed from suffocation, and with a loud roar, a large amount of white steam emerged from the pores of his upper body and filled a corner of the room.

Leslie stood up straight in the "white mist", raised his right hand in front of him, pinched his thumb and index finger together, snapped his fingers lightly, a spark flashed, and the mist was instantly ignited like a purgatory fire rising from the ground. With a bang, it burned and enveloped his upper body.

Twisting his lower neck from side to side, accompanied by the creaking sound of bones, "Flame Boy" exhaled comfortably into the air, and a person-high flame burst into the ceiling, burning the stone red and gasping.

The eyes in the flames danced wildly and happily, and their eyes were firmly locked on the big ugly guy not far away. The corner of Leslie's mouth curved into a smile: "Come dance with the flames..."

He picked up the copper cylinder hidden in the thick cloth coat on the ground, put it in his waist, and started running with both legs.

"Boss!"

Alfonso, who was in a hard fight, heard the shout behind him, knelt down on one knee, and sank slightly. Leslie jumped towards the knight's body, and stepped on the opponent's back with one foot.

Alfonso, who was acting as a pedal, raised his body abruptly, and sent the "Flame Boy" into the air with the counterforce.

The body twisted in the air and made a beautiful front somersault. When passing the monster's head, Leslie turned his head down and his feet up, and spit out a "fire dragon" from his mouth, which fell on the enemy below, the top of the head and the connecting pipe without any protection.

Accompanied by the explosion and flames, the monster's scorched black head, blood vessels and nerves beside the bone spine burned violently. Shaking his body in pain, he temporarily stopped moving.

Alfonso held the hilt of the big sword tightly with both hands, took advantage of the gap, and stabbed towards the opponent's chest. The blade pierced the skin and pierced directly from the other side.

Falling behind the enemy, seeing the opponent's back, a three-centimeter wound was pierced by the sword. Leslie took out two burning balls from the copper pipe and stuffed them into the wound.

Two dull explosions came from the monster's body, and the light flashed by, instantly illuminating the outline of his internal organs under the skin.

The severely injured monster took a few steps back, and finally sat down on the ground.

nailed it?

Todd, who was paddling and watching the show from beginning to end, saw this scene and was about to cheer when he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the monster's body.

It's like the vibration of a rattlesnake's tail.

A moment later, a human roar was heard in the distance.

Leslie was the first to realize what happened, and he shouted at the knight: "Boss! This bastard has started summoning a 'puppet', and he has to find a way to destroy the 'hive' on his body!"

Speeding up his steps, Alfonso swung his great sword and fought with the enemy again. The seriously injured monster lost to the knight and was completely at a disadvantage, with several holes and wounds on its body.

But the sound of the rattlesnake's tail still continues!

Soon, the first "puppet" figure appeared at the door of the room. Then, more and more infected people squeezed into the small room.

Todd glanced at their figures, they were clearly the group of "puppets" who had been given up control at the door. They should have used Wilder to defend against the barbarians and climbed up the city wall secretly.

Seeing that there were more and more enemies in front of him, the priest knew that it was time to burn his eyebrows, and he could no longer worry about other things.

While leading Karin to avoid the "puppets", he yelled at Leslie and Alfonso: "Who of you know what the body of the "hive" looks like?!"

Although surprised that Todd would ask such a question, "Flame Boy" answered it immediately: "It's like an upside-down bowl with many tentacles growing underneath!"

Getting closer to the monster, Todd used the "see-through" ability to look at the opponent's whole body. After some inspection, he finally found a similar parasite. Pointing his finger at the monster's torso, he said, "On the back! Near the middle right of the spine!"

Alfonso and Leslie heard the words, glanced at the speaker, and then focused their attack on the back.

Due to the ability of the monster "Jelly", the "Flame Boy", who lacks effective physical attack means, has to take the risk of taking on the role of attracting firepower.

After some twists and turns, the knight moved sideways to the enemy's back, and the big sword slashed off the bulge on his back. At the same time, the giant arm of the monster also hit Leslie, knocking the boy to the opposite wall, and losing his ability to move.

The "puppets" approaching in the room stopped and fell to the ground.

Thinking of Todd, who was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, he bent down and took a breath, and suddenly heard Karin's voice in his ear.

"careful!"

The huge enemy who had destroyed the "Hive" fell into madness, and unexpectedly dropped the knight behind him, and slashed the ax at Todd who was the closest in front of him. At this critical moment, Karin pushed away the victim vigorously, and was exposed to the attack of the broad axe, staying in place at a loss.

However, the attack was aborted.

The monster stopped in front of the girl, and the ax hung in the air, never falling. As if remembering something, the humanoid creature trembled slightly.

Todd, who was still in shock, turned to look at Karin. A shiny pendant dropped from her chest caught his attention. It was a piece of translucent glass hung by a string and polished into a disc by hand.

Suddenly, he remembered what it was...

That was the first failure of the duo to make optical glass when they first met. Originally, I thought I had thrown it away long ago, but I didn't expect this silly girl to keep it by her side like a treasured treasure.

All thoughts were only in an instant. Looking at the ax blade less than 30 centimeters away from Karin's head, Todd's mind went blank. Using the "weakening" ability with both hands, he rushed between Karin and the monster, holding the thick arm holding the giant ax tightly with both hands. The black gas radiated from the palm of the hand and penetrated into the enemy's body, causing the opponent's arm to become weak, and the ax also fell to the ground not far away.

Following that, Todd stopped the "weaken" ability, picked up Karin, used the "speed" ability, and rushed to a relatively safe place.

To his surprise, Alfonso and Leslie didn't help from the beginning to the end, but looked at him with hellish eyes.

The monster picked up the ax again, and turned to Karin's direction. After staying for a while, the monster started to retreat. It seemed that it had lost its fighting spirit and wanted to escape from this place.

The knight who came back to his senses looked away from Todd, moved his steps, raised his big sword, and blocked all the enemy's retreat routes.

The huge humanoid scooped up the blood from the wound with its hands, and swayed it towards the fourth winch. The blood that should have fallen to the ground tightly wrapped the iron chain on the winch.

After a while, the blood spontaneously ignited, and the rising flames were not ordinary red and yellow, but faintly purple-black. The iron chain was burned red and gradually deformed.

Alfonso froze, he was faced with a choice.

Todd and Karin are simply not capable of fighting the monster, and Leslie is too far away. You can either extinguish the flame of the winch and let go of the monster carrying the "Sutherland Relic" in front of you; or continue to entangle the enemy, but the iron chain may be melted and broken, the drawbridge will be lowered, and the northern barbarians will invade the castle.

After a few seconds of thinking, the knight chose the former option.

Just as he turned around and ran towards the winch, he was unable to dodge the sudden attack of the huge ax behind him. He was directly smashed through the armor and cut into the flesh on his back.

After a successful blow, the monster did not choose to pursue, but left the battlefield after "looking" at Karin again.

"Boss!" Leslie, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, dissipated the flames all over his body. Seeing that the knight was seriously injured, he crawled towards Alfonso on the ground.

The latter supported his body with a big sword, walked step by step to the position of the winch, pressed the black and purple flames with his palms, the blazing flames were sucked into his body, and the iron chains cooled slowly, returning to their original color.

Todd put down the girl in his arms, ran to the knight in a hurry, and searched for the medicine bottle in his arms.

What he never expected was that Alfonso used his last strength to reverse the sword, pointed the blade at his throat, and said weakly, "Father Todd, please forgive me, the successor of Sutherland must die..."

———————————————

Looking at the fierce battle between the defenders and the barbarians in front of the suspension bridge of the Fort Watch in the distance, he sat on a stone with his throat and legs crossed, and took a sip of warm ale in his spare time.

Seeing the worried expression on the face of Master Meilis beside him, he said relaxedly: "If I remember correctly, it should be the third iron chain just now, right? Success is not far away..."

The old man retracted his hands into his sleeves, his stooped body motionless.

The young man paused, and then said: "When Mr. Bourne was hunted down by the Inquisitor on the way of transporting the "Sutherland Relic", no one would have thought that in order to prevent the holy relic from falling into the hands of the church, he would choose to swallow the copper pipe and use his body to hide the relic."

"The judge's blade pierced the copper tube in his stomach cavity, and the relics entered his body, including his head, before he died."

Hearing this, Master Myris' body trembled slightly.

In the distance, a huge figure jumped off the castle wall, but the fourth sound of the chain breaking was delayed, and the suspension bridge was still not put down.

Frowning on his throat, he took another sip of ale and sighed: "The wine is cold..."
