The gray-haired man spit out another puff of smoke. Seeing Josk staring at his female companion, his sweaty face was full of horror, and then continued to speak in a friendly manner.
"Oh, that's the way it is, Mr. Knight."
While the Olympian Hunter was confronting the Holy Light Knight, the brown-haired woman walked quickly into the flower field, deliberately avoiding the petite flowers, and walked towards the boy who was sitting paralyzed on the soil.
At this moment, Yechen, with a difficult face, was trying to keep his consciousness clear, covering his bleeding wrist, and at the same time using "self-healing" to continuously stop the bleeding from his incision.
However, his physical and mental wear-and-tear is too serious now, causing the flow rate of the mysterious power between the wounds to be extremely disordered, and it is impossible to fill the bleeding hole smoothly, causing the blood to still flow out continuously.
"You're really messing around."
Hearing this soft voice, Ye Chen looked up and saw that the brown-haired woman was already half-kneeling beside him, and then he stretched out his hand directly to look at Ye Chen's bloody wrist.
Knowing that the other party was an Olympian hunter, the boy didn't resist, but just kept silent and let him act.
After a quick check, the brunette then held up the jewelry she wore on her right wrist.
It was a thin black ring, with a miniature round clock similar to a pocket watch embedded in the top of the black ring, and a rune similar to Yechen's handkerchief engraved on the bottom.
The boy knew in his heart that those were the runes needed for the "Space Access" technology.
And after the brown-haired woman instilled the power of the mysterious spirit into the black ring, a gray-white bandage of suitable length appeared from the rune of the black ring, and was quickly wrapped around the incision on Yechen's wrist by the brown-haired woman.
Then, the boy's heart full of pain received a mixed feeling of freshness and anesthesia.
The blood flowing out of his wound stopped spreading immediately after a one-centimeter-radius blush appeared on the surface of the bandage. Even though the young man took the initiative to relax his mind and postponed the use of "self-healing", the blush still did not continue to expand.
Yechen's cut wrist was forcibly stopped bleeding by this bandage.
What an amazing prop...
The young man sighed in shock, blinked his heavy eyelids, and was about to nod his thanks to the brown-haired woman, but felt his eyes tingle, and reached out to touch them, and found that the corners of his eyes were also dripping with blood.
Seeing this, the woman took out gauze to stop the bleeding from Yechen's eyelids.
Although the situation was unclear, the boy still read the words of thanks.
"Thank you, Ah..."
Having said that, he saw the brown-haired woman's eyes suddenly change, and immediately changed his words.
"Thank you, sister."
The brown-haired woman smiled in relief after hearing this, and took out more gray and white bandages from the black ring, and while treating other injuries on Ye Chen's body, she issued a friendly reminder.
"You won't be in danger anymore, just relax and leave the rest to him."
After hearing this, Yechen turned his attention to the two figures on the rocky ground in front of him.
At this moment, the gray-haired man was still smoking a cigarette leisurely, while the old knight was standing still, holding his long sword tightly, not daring to act rashly, his eyes were constantly changing under his frowning brows.
After thinking quickly for a while, Josk finally opened his mouth to break the silence.
"Even within the realm of hunters, you Olympian hunters absolutely have no right to obstruct us Holy Light Knights from carrying out our official duties!"
"Your behavior just now still violated the law of the Holy Light and committed a serious crime!"
"However, I can give you a chance now. If you return that kid to me, then I will forget the past. Otherwise, after I report today's situation to the Holy Light Central, not only you, but all of you Olympian hunters Regiment, they will all be severely punished by the Knights of the Holy Light—!"
Josk spoke louder and louder, and even roared at the end. His voice mixed with the powerful power of the Holy Light shook the surrounding rocky ground into cracks, exuding a ferocious aura that did not back down.
However, this aura condensed instantly after the gray-haired man's cold words fell.
"Hehe, Mr. Knight, you still don't seem to understand the current situation, we don't need you to let the past go."
"Because, you are destined not to go back to the Holy Light headquarters today."
"Those high-level church officials won't even see your dead body."
The moment the gray-haired man finished speaking, he immediately put the cigarette end in his mouth, and his figure directly turned into a phantom, rushing towards the old knight.
Josk's pupils shrank at this moment. Although he had expected such a situation in his heart, after feeling the fierce murderous aura rushing towards his face, Josk couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
When Josk tried to pierce Yechen's shoulder with a sword just now, but was hit by the gray-haired man, Josk didn't see the method used by the opponent, but he was able to smash his "Holy Barrier" with a single blow. It is enough to show that the strength of the gray-haired man should not be underestimated, and he is definitely not an opponent that Josk can neglect.
However, this Knight of the Holy Light had a career of more than 40 years, and he was naturally a seasoned veteran. He only took a short breath, and immediately regained his composure.
He held his breath and concentrated, held the sword in both hands, and at the same time condensed the power of the holy light around him, reorganized and built the fragmented "Holy Barrier" in front of him, ready to meet the attack of the gray-haired man.
The gray-haired man leaned over and rushed to Josk's five meters, but his hands were empty, he didn't take out any weapon, he just stomped on the ground, the whole person circled in the air, and finally performed a volley Turning around and kicking horizontally, he lashed towards Josk's chest.
This guy, what's going on! ?
Seeing this, Josk's originally calm face suddenly became extremely weird.
Because at this moment, his cross sword was firmly in front of him, and the gray-haired man didn't mind going into battle empty-handed, but he rushed directly to Josk's sword with his flesh and blood.
Such behaviors are enough to be called mindless, and they simply don't take Josk seriously!
You bastard, I'm going to make you pay for your arrogance!
The behavior of the gray-haired man completely aroused Josk's fighting spirit, making him furiously condense all the power of the holy light in his body on the long cross sword, and fully displayed his unique skill of holy light.
"Holy Light Cross Sword"!
While Josk was roaring in his heart, the power of the holy light instilled on the sword quickly doubled the blade length and width of the cross sword, causing Josk's offensive and power to skyrocket instantly.
Then, when the Olympian hunter leaped to three meters in front of the Holy Light Knight, the latter's radiant "Holy Light Cross Sword" immediately took a step ahead and slammed down on the former's body in the air.
At this moment, the gray-haired man was in the air, without any foothold, obviously unable to avoid the slashing sword.
Mindless idiot, turn into two halves—!
Josk, who swung his arms fiercely, thought so with a ferocious face, and the corners of his mouth immediately twisted up.
However, just when Josk thought he had overestimated his opponent's level, just when Josk's "Holy Light Cross Sword" was about to hit the gray-haired man's limbs, the opponent's body suddenly changed into a Dark purple phantom.
Under Josk's unimaginable and terrified gaze, the phantom of the gray-haired man passed through his "Holy Light Cross Sword" without injury, and even penetrated Josk himself, and then re-condensed behind him As an entity, he pointed at Josk's back door and pumped up his shiny black leather shoes.
The next moment, the armor shattered and the knight flew high.
Josk's facial expressions were distorted by astonishment, shock, and severe pain. The whole person turned several times at a height of 50 meters, and finally smashed hard on the hard rock, leaving thousands of holes. Fine cracks.
Josk lay down on the ground, dizzy for a while, and then couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Pfft!"
Smear the blood, and then dye the gray-yellow rocky ground with dazzling red.
And the gray-haired man stood beside the old knight with a calm face, holding the cigarette butt with his fingertips, looking at the sky with his eyes, and opened his mouth to spit out another puff of smoke.
"Whoo~"
Then, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his expression looked extremely satisfied...
Chapter 0103 Cigarette Butts
"Uhhhh..."
Josk lay down on the rocky ground, groaning in pain continuously, his face turned from ashen to pale, and he was twitching ferociously because of the severe pain in his back.
As for his long cross sword, it fell ten meters away. The originally shining sword body was now as dim as gray, which was very commensurate with the weakened state of its owner at this time.
Josk secretly used the power of the holy light to condense his back that was about to fall apart, and then struggled to turn over and get up, but with this movement, a more intense pain was born in his back again.
"Uh--!"
Josk couldn't help screaming in pain again, reached out and touched his spine, and found that the middle of it had been broken.
If Josk hadn't used the power of the holy light to tie his front and back tightly, thus temporarily saving most of his nerves, he would have already been reduced to a paralyzed cripple.
this man...
Just turned into a phantom...
That is his arcane technique?
After Josk was shocked, these questions immediately appeared in his mind. The grey-haired man's methods were strange and extraordinary, which was the first time Josk had seen it with his own eyes in his career, but he seemed to have heard of such strange tactics before.
However, before Josk could find the answer in his memories, the gray-haired man who kicked his back armor and broke his spine with his hand bent down immediately after pinching the last bit of cigarette butt with his hands. Half-kneeling in front of Josk, he gave a compliment with a bright smile.
"Hey, as expected of a butcher knight, he can still maintain his sanity. The sense of self-preservation is quite strong."
Josk glanced at the gray-haired man. Although he didn't know when he had the title of "Butcher Knight", after seeing the gray-haired man's defenseless squatting posture, his arm that was originally on the ground immediately followed the battle plan. Instinct moved.
A dagger shot out from the gap in Josk's wrist armor, and was held tightly in Josk's hand again, blooming with his last power of holy light, turning into a gorgeous afterimage, stabbing straight at the gray-haired man A gaping belly.
Although there is nothing to do with the way the gray-haired man turns into a phantom, as long as he is unprepared, Josk believes that he still has a way to cause a situation where both sides suffer!
However, this is only his personal idea after all, and it does not mean that the reality will be as he wishes.
The next moment, the gray-haired man's outstretched palm immediately grasped the dagger that Josk had struck, not only stopped it firmly in front of his belly with his bare hands, but also crushed it with his bare hands.
The power of the holy light that Josk displayed at the end was just like that between the five fingers of the gray-haired man, shattered and scattered dimly.
Josk himself was dumbfounded by this.
After witnessing the overwhelming gap in front of him, a certain piece of memory rushed into his mind, making him finally aware of the identity of the gray-haired man in front of him.
"You...you...could you be... the empty-footed hunter in "Extreme Hunting", Niesuo?"
Josk murmured in a shocking and desperate voice.
"Ha, I'm really honored to be recognized by you."
Nie Suo straightened his hair, responded leisurely and kindly, and then asked back: "However, Mr. Josk, you are also very popular in our hunter group... You know, why did I say that just now?" Call you Butcher Knight?"
Josk was taken aback when he heard the words, apparently he hadn't expected that his name would have been noticed by Nesuo, and he was speechless immediately.
"Your information has long been mastered by our hunter group."
"I know what happened to you in your childhood, and I also know that you hate us Olympian hunters because of a traitor code-named Butcher Hunter, and I also know that in your subsequent knight career, you have continuously sent a large number of people to the stake ..."
"You don't bother to escort the vast majority of those people to the Holy Light Center for threat detection, and just based on your personal assumptions and whims, you condemn them all as heresies tainted with the "abyss breath", and these innocent people Burn them all."
"You know, what do the relatives of the few survivors of these people think? They think you are cruel and innocent, just like that butcher hunter, so they call you the butcher knight. They want you to die and want to be miserable. The deceased loved ones have revenge."
"However, even though these mortals report your actions to the Holy Light headquarters, they can't produce any substantive evidence, because they have been completely cleaned up by you, so in the end they can only turn to us mysterious people for help. Spirit Hunter, I hope we can do justice for the heavens and get rid of you, a scumbag."
"However, the law is supreme. Although we really want to get rid of you, a lunatic who has a great prejudice against Olympian hunters, we can't do it on the bright side. We can only collect your information secretly to see if there is a chance to secretly kill you in the future. Got you..."
Having said that, Niesuo took another puff of the cigarette, and then slowly exhaled it in the form of a cloud. His originally soft and calm eyes gradually became filled with ecstasy and cruelty.
"I didn't expect that I was given such an opportunity today... Hey, I don't know if all this was arranged by the god Angrinoander? Maybe it also wanted to get rid of you a long time ago!"
Hearing this, Josk's pale face froze for a moment, and then he cursed at Niesuo angrily.
"You bastard, you don't deserve to call the name of the Holy Spirit—!"
"I am loyal to it, how could the Holy Spirit want to get rid of me—!"
"Also, the group of people you mentioned, what's wrong with me killing them! Who can guarantee that more people will not be infected with the abyssal breath when I escort them to the Holy Light headquarters! Who can guarantee that among these people Abyssal spies who are not bewitched by the abyss and attempt to bring disaster to the headquarters of the Holy Light!"
"In a situation like this, only by adhering to the concept of 'wrongly killing one hundred and not letting one go' can the order and prosperity of the Holy Light Pure Land be maintained for a long time! What's more, some mere mortals with spare labor can abandon their ego and achieve success." Shouldn’t it be their honor? The interests of the majority are always based on the sacrifices of a small number of people. Don’t you understand such a simple truth!”
"So, I'm not wrong at all."
"Wrong, only you fools who don't know how to take into account the overall situation—!"
Josk yelled, ignoring the severe pain all over his body, obviously extremely angry by Niesuo's remarks.
However, Niesuo shook his head helplessly in response to the lunatic's rebuttal, took the cigarette butt with a few traces of sparks from his mouth, and sighed softly: "So... this is why you, as the Holy Light, Cavaliers, but broke the law with their bodies, indiscriminately killing innocent people indiscriminately?"
Josk grinned his bloody mouth, showing a ferocious and paranoid smile.
"Yeah, what's the matter? How can my loyalty to the Holy Lord and my concern for the Kingdom of the Holy Light be something that can be obstructed by mere laws! How can it be a concept that you fools can understand!"
When Niesuo heard this, his body moved, and he punched Josk in the face without hesitation, breaking the bridge of his nose and knocking his front teeth away.
"Pfft!"
Josk vomited blood, and felt the world spinning in front of his eyes, and then suddenly realized that his left eyelid had been forcibly opened by Niesuo's extended fingers.
"Enough, I'm tired of your bastard's ramblings."
Niesuo was expressionless and his tone was cold.
At the same time, his other hand was holding the cigarette butt that still had sparks, hovering steadily above Josk's bloodshot eyeball.
"hiss."
Seeing this scene, the Knight of the Holy Light couldn't help but gasped, his mind went blank, and his originally firm face immediately turned gray again due to wavering.
Then, without hesitation, Niesuo stuffed the cigarette butt in without hesitation, and put out the smoke with his eyes.
