Chapter 2047 The Origin of the Strange Knight
When Horn Helmet and others entered the underground mining area in the city and tried to rescue the desperate people, the dwarfs and the others were not idle either.
They rummaged around the battlefield, collected useful materials, and piled them together.
All things are interdependent, and even ferocious monsters still have many things that can be used.
Non-poisonous meat can be eaten, scale bones can be used to make armor, sharp teeth can be polished into swords, spears and arrows, and certain organs can be used to refine medicine and make poison.
It is no exaggeration to say that the whole body is a treasure.
When resources are scarce, monsters that can produce various materials are also targets of hunting.
The remnants of the Kingdom of God and the desperate will hunt monsters in order to obtain various materials from the monsters. However, they hunt only low-level monsters, and those high-level monsters must not be provoked.
Otherwise, they would not be hunting monsters, but they would be hunted by monsters and become a meal for those monsters.
Because there were so many monsters killed in this battle, there were countless materials collected. Many materials that required special collection methods and careful preservation were piled randomly on the road.
No one cares about these things, because they are too busy and there is no way to waste some.
The officers, soldiers and spell casters who were previously captured are now also participating in the collection under the custody of the Desperate. They know more and know what kind of monster materials are more valuable.
Looking at the piles of monster corpses and the city that had been turned into ruins, these officers, soldiers and spell casters were frightened, and they did not dare to act rashly.
At this moment, the city has been occupied by desperate people. The remaining people of the Kingdom of God are afraid that there will be no survivors, and it is impossible to make a comeback.
The forest outside the city was guarded by the Strange Knights again. Even if they got rid of the Desperate Ones, they still had nowhere to escape.
In this case, the wisest thing to do is to obey the instructions honestly and wait for the opportunity to escape safely.
Otherwise, with the cruelty of these desperate people, they will definitely kill them all, instead of being afraid of them like tigers and avoiding them as much as in the past.
After all, the more severe the oppression, the more powerful the rebound will be, and you will even have no scruples when retaliating.
Tang Zhen walked slowly down from the giant puppet tree and walked to the edge of the forest. The leader of the Guilty Cavalry was sitting on a big stone on the side of the road, gently wiping the bloody sword in his hand.
You can tell by the look on his face that he obviously loves this sword very much, and his eyes look very focused.
Hearing the footsteps, the leader of the Guiqi looked up, stood up and saluted Tang Zhen with his fists clasped.
"Your Excellency!"
He has decided that Tang Zhen is a strong man, so he must respect him. This is the most basic etiquette among monks.
Looking at the movements of the leader of the Guilty Cavalry, Tang Zhen frowned slightly, feeling vaguely familiar.
“If I guessed correctly, you were not a desperate person before, right?”
The leader of the Riders nodded and replied in a hoarse voice: "Yes, I was once a desperate person, just like you.
First I came to the City of Despair in a daze, and then I was caught by the remnants of the Kingdom of God. Thrown into the mine.
After digging for the sacred stone day and night for several years, we accidentally discovered an ancient mine and successfully escaped into the forest."
When the leader of Guiqi said this, he showed a hint of emotion. The color seems to be trapped in memories.
“Needless to say, there are dangers in the forest. The desperate people who escaped together at the beginning kept dying at the hands of monsters. It was simply impossible to guard against.
Everyone's hearts are filled with despair. They don't know where to go next, and whether they can get out of this forest alive?
In fact, everyone knows that even if you leave this forest, you may not be able to find stability, and you may die for various reasons.
In this panic atmosphere, we once again encountered a large group of monsters chasing us, and in the panic, we accidentally entered a huge dilapidated temple.
After we entered the temple, the monsters stopped chasing them and squatted outside the temple refusing to leave, but they still refused to take a step closer.
Everyone was happy to be able to survive the monsters' pursuit, but the abnormal behavior of these monsters also aroused everyone's vigilance. Why don't these monsters enter the temple? Is it possible that the temple has the same function of resisting monsters as the city?
If this is the case, it will definitely be the biggest surprise for us. At least we can have a safe place to stay. "
Speaking of this, the leader of the Guilty Cavalry showed a hint of fear: "Then we began to observe the temple carefully and found that there were hundreds of statues enshrined in it. The appearance of each statue is different.
These statues are vivid, and when we observe them, they seem to be looking at us with cold eyes.
Everyone felt something was wrong. This temple was definitely not simple, and there might be some danger hidden there.
But if you leave, you will be attacked by those monsters, and there will definitely be no way to survive.
After everyone discussed it, they finally decided to take the risk and stay. After all, this temple may only be dangerous, but if you leave, you will definitely die.
How to choose, you can’t think too much about it..."
Tang Zhen listened quietly to the leader of the Guilty Cavalry, nodding lightly from time to time, and recorded every detail he said. In his heart.
Tang Zhen was also very interested in the temple they had entered. He even had a vague guess that maybe he could find a satisfactory answer from the temple as to why his memory was sealed. .
The leader of the Riders' eyes wandered, and he continued to tell his story, but there was a hint of trembling and unwillingness in his voice.
“Although we stayed in the temple, we were all very careful for fear of encountering any unexpected dangers.
But even though we were more vigilant, we still encountered strange things. That night, one after another, the desperate people suddenly disappeared. r>
They disappeared right before our eyes, but no one saw where they went from beginning to end?
Everyone was in chaos, trying to escape from the temple. But it was only then that we discovered that the temple door had also disappeared.
Not only that, the surrounding statues of gods have all disappeared, and the empty walls are covered with shiny things like eyes, staring at us.
I was scared to death. I held a stone in my hand as a weapon and kept looking around, fearing that danger would befall me.
As a result, at this moment, I felt that the sky was dark and the earth was dark. When my vision recovered, I found that I was standing in an unknown space.
The statues of gods that had disappeared strangely before were surrounding me and looking at me intently.
The way they looked at me was full of indifference and teasing, as if they were looking down at ants.
In that place, I saw a statue of God, which felt very familiar to me, as if I had believed in Him before entering the city of despair.
It’s just that this statue of a god that I worshiped crazily cannot make me feel at ease. On the contrary, it makes me even more frightened and shocked.
Just when I was confused, the statue suddenly spoke and gave me two choices.
Either use your soul in exchange to become a knight, so that you can avoid being chased by monsters.
But I will also become a monster, a test subject for the apostles of the gods, and may be killed at any time.
Either become an apostle of the gods, and after obtaining enough sacred stones, go to a higher level area to accept the trial.
The statue told me that I only have a hundred breaths of time to make a choice. If I exceed this time, I will completely lose the chance to choose and be sent out of the temple.
However, the prerequisite for becoming an apostle of the gods is that you must have enough sacred stones in exchange, otherwise you will not be eligible to choose at all.
From the moment I entered the temple, I had only one chance to choose, and I only had three sacred stones on my body, which simply could not meet the basic conditions for becoming an apostle of the gods.
Seeing that the time to choose is about to end, in desperation, I can only choose to become a strange knight, so that I can at least temporarily save my life..."
Thanks to: "The Master of Xiaoyao Pavilion" for the reward, and to the book friends for their support.
