Chapter 630 Shocking Discovery (please vote!)
Plop.
Kelu's body fell down.
Only then did the four knights come to their senses.
"Neil Lucius! You damn bastard!"
"Get him!"
"Baron Miller must be informed of this matter as soon as possible!"
They shouted loudly, and immediately pulled out the cross swords from their waists in unison, and rushed over wearing fully armed metal armor and oval helmets like steel eggs on their heads.
Neil grinned.
He threw away the scythe in his hand with a clang. This thing couldn't cut through the knight's armor at all. Ke Lu was wearing leather armor and was killed by his sneak attack. In the next battle, he still had to use regular weapons.
So he immediately picked up Kelu's sword. After pulling it out, he faced the four knights head-on.
It's hard to describe this battle.
The nearly a hundred militiamen who were watching were stunned, from Master Kelu being beheaded to the "mute" boy facing off against the four knights.
They all just froze in place.
Neither dared to step forward to help, nor dared to leave rashly.
Everyone screamed in surprise, staring at the dazzling fight.
The sword skills of the four knights are very exquisite. At the same time, even though they wear armor weighing dozens of kilograms, their bodies are not clumsy. They draw swords, move around, and even use knee kicks and elbow attacks to display various combat skills, which are quite powerful.
But Neil's performance was even more unexpected than they expected.
I originally thought that this little guy just took advantage of the convenience of a sneak attack to kill Master Kelu, who had just become a knight and was unprepared. With four knights on his side, they should be able to capture him without any effort.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they fought, the expressions of the four people changed drastically!
This young man is too strong!
I saw Neil holding the cross sword tightly, using the tip and blade of the sword to pick or deflect it with precision, and hit the incoming sword with a crisp clashing sound and sparks, but in fact, the force had already been deflected. Oblique transfer.
His posture is weird and twisted, sometimes bending down, sometimes leaning back, and the hand holding the sword is swinging...
At first glance, he doesn't appear to be fighting for his life.
But dancing!
Weird, bizarre and murderous dance!
bass!
A clear cry.
The cross sword in Neil's hand trembled several times in succession, blocking a knight's sword, and quickly popped out like a poisonous snake hunting, hitting the man's throat.
The sharp sword tip easily penetrated the lock's neck guard, piercing his neck!
"Uh-huh..."
The sword in the knight's hand clattered to the ground.
He clutched the bleeding wound on his neck and fell down.
The other three knights felt the coldness rising from their hearts to their heads!
Neil Lucius…
This little guy lives under their eyes every day, and no one knows better than them what an ordinary boy he is.
Neal, who usually wields a practice sword with difficulty, and can easily ravage even Master Fokker, can now compete with knights like them who have experienced battles on the battlefield.
No, to be precise, one against four, and they were suppressed!
"You are not Neil Lucius!"
"His thumb should have been chopped off by Lord Miller!"
"Devil! He must have made a deal with the devil in exchange for the power of fire. This is obviously the 'Dance of Fire' that only church priests have!"
The knights' voices came out excitedly from under their helmets.
Neil's face was twisted and ferocious, and his eyes were filled with the pleasure and excitement of revenge. He simply stopped pretending and said in a deep voice:
"I have endured humiliation and hardship for two years, just for today... everyone in the Dutt family, as well as your accomplices, will all die!"
Dang Dang Dang! !
He exerted his sword skills with all his strength, deflected the long sword, and immediately bumped into the arms of a knight with quick steps, knocking him away with a standard shoulder support.
The cross sword in his hand followed closely, slicing across his neck.
Blood splattered everywhere.
Neil never looked at the knight again and danced the killing dance towards the remaining two knights.
The ending is no surprise.
In disbelief, the two knights were killed by Neil piercing their throats with a cross sword.
Not long after, Neil was holding a bloody cross sword, with the corpses of Kelu and four knights lying at his feet. He turned around and looked at the militiamen coldly.
"Lord Neil!"
"Please forgive me, Lord Neal!"
"We are also forced to have no choice. After Lord Birch died in the battle, the adults in our villages and even the knights did not actually succumb to that despicable guy Miledut..."
"Now that you have killed Koldut, we are willing to work for you, and only you are qualified to inherit the Black Horn Territory!"
The militiamen threw down their farm tools and weapons and knelt down to salute the young man.
Their faces were full of awe, and a few of them even showed expressions of joy and expectation...
These people have lived in the Black Horn Territory for generations and have feelings for the original lord Lucius and his family. They surrendered to Baron Miller before but were forced by the situation. Now Neil, as the only surviving bloodline, has enough strength to join the militia Most of them are willing to join their ranks.
"Thank you."
Neil said calmly with an expressionless face.
He took a deep breath.
He raised his finger and pointed to a few familiar militiamen, temporarily appointed them as captains, and ordered them to lead the team into the main building of the castle and bring out Dutt's family.
"Yes, Lord Neil!"
Four or five relatively strong men picked up their axes and machetes again, shouted, and rushed towards the main building of Black Horn Castle with the swarming militiamen.
The door to the main building was closed tightly. It was obvious that the battle just now had already attracted the attention of the people inside.
Some guards did not dare to resist at all, so they quickly discarded their weapons, crawled on the ground, and were tied up and controlled by the militiamen.
The door was knocked open, and a woman's screams came from inside.
Neil just sneered and looked back.
He turned around, bent down and groped for Kelu's headless corpse, found a silver lion's head token, and quickly took off his leather armor and put it on himself.
Compared to fully enclosed knight armor, Neil prefers lighter leather armor, which is more conducive to his swordsmanship.
He then searched for trophies from the other four knights.
Complete knight armor, helmets and cross swords are all very valuable and rare strategic materials. Often such a set of knight equipment is equivalent to what hundreds of farmers earn from a year of hard work.
If a territory could collect twenty sets of such equipment, it would be considered extremely wealthy.
Click!
There was a crisp click sound.
Neil took off a knight's helmet and looked at the man with wide eyes and a twisted expression. He recognized the man's name as Kurus, and he called him "Uncle Straw" when he was a child.
He moved the corpse's head.
His fingers suddenly stiffened.
At this moment, Chen Lun, who was possessing Neil, also discovered something extremely incredible——
'Um? This is? ! ’
Chen Lun's perception, together with Neil's sight, was placed behind the corpse's ear, where there was a small, rectangular black indentation, and a perfect circular indentation below.
Neil looked at the "wound" with a puzzled expression, unable to understand what it was.
But Chen Lun is so familiar that he couldn't be more familiar——
Data interface!
This is clearly the "Azure 1.0 Protocol Data Interface" that became popular in 2070 AD in the previous life, and every newborn must be equipped with it!
‘It’s unmistakable… Even the spacing between the black dots next to the input port is exactly right. This is definitely a data interface, but why? ’
Chen Lun was quite shocked.
He immediately asked Neil to check the bodies of the other three knights, and even Kelu's head was picked up for inspection.
The results are without exception.
Behind the left ears of these people, there was a strip-shaped and circular notch hidden. Chen Lun suddenly understood that the so-called "baptism of salvation" was most likely to have a data interface installed on these people!
‘Since a data interface is installed, it must be necessary to transmit data or download data... Is there any large-scale federal technology equipment within the Redemption Church? But how does this make sense? ! ’
Chen Lun was shocked by the facts for a moment, and his thoughts couldn't help but wander.
'So these so-called "knights" are actually programs or chips that have been transmitted with certain combat skills? What is the connection between the outer continent and reality...'
This moment.
He suddenly thought of the dream he had had.
In the dream, Duke Huan reminded him that the last one of the Four Seasons Bookmark was particularly crucial, and the clue was in the outer continent...
‘Could it be related to the Redemption Church? ’
Chen Lun calmed down and thought carefully.
He decided to continue to use Neil as a "probe" to go deep into the Redemption Church to investigate and find the important clues he needed!
"Lord Snake, this... what is this?"
Neil pointed to the data interface and asked in his mind.
Chen Lun replied calmly:
"The biggest secret of the Redemption Church is also the source of the knight's power."
"So that's it."
Neil was stunned and speechless.
At this time, he suddenly heard fierce scoldings and even hysterical roars coming from behind him:
"Let me go! You damn pariahs! I am the son of a baron, how dare you treat me so roughly?!"
Neil's eyes grew cold.
He stood up slowly, turned his head, and looked at Young Master Fokker with an indifferent expression.
This guy was only wearing pajamas and was being held up by two sturdy militiamen, forcing him to kneel down in front of Neil.
"Neil! How dare you bastard do this?!"
Fokker looked up at Neil with a ferocious expression.
The despicable man in front of him, who used to be unable to fight back or even retaliate, was now wearing leather armor and holding a cross sword in his hand, looking down at him in a dignified manner.
This made Fogg feel ridiculous and angry in his heart.
The huge gap made him forget his own situation.
The old butler Rolf, a dozen maids and male servants, the three wives of Baron Miller, and the eight young heirs of the Dut family all knelt on the ground and looked at the blond boy with horror on their faces.
"Brother Neil, don't kill me!"
"Please don't hurt me!"
"Neil, I breastfed you when you were a child, do you remember? Please show mercy and don't hurt your younger siblings..."
There were constant cries and pleas.
Neil turned a blind eye.
He raised his cross sword with a loud sound and pointed it at Fok's eyes.
The latter is a thrill.
The originally fierce expression suddenly became distorted.
It turned into fear in an instant.
"Don't... don't kill me! Neil! Kill me and you're done!"
"Death!!"
Neil's eyes were violent and he turned his cross sword.
With a pop, Fokdut's head spun and fell to the ground. Amid screams and cries, he fell in front of his younger brothers and sisters.
He kept moving, and the sword edge passed through the necks of these people one by one, killing everyone in the Dut family.
Blood was spread all over the ground, and corpses were scattered everywhere.
The militiamen looked at each other speechlessly, but they were all shocked by a fifteen or sixteen year old boy.
Among the people captured, Neil only left one person alive but not killed, and that was the old butler Rolf.
"Rolfe, you have served my Lucius family for decades, and you have taken good care of me. I will not kill you."
Neil's face was stained with blood, and he looked at the old man coldly while holding his sword.
The old housekeeper was trembling, kneeling on the ground and lowering his head.
"Master Neal, I am incompetent and cannot help you!"
"I just need you to do one thing for me. If you do it well, you will still be the steward of Blackhorn Castle from now on. If you don't do it well, you will have no choice but to die."
Neil said calmly.
"What's the matter? Neil... Sir?"
Butler Rolf asked anxiously.
Neil took out a letter he had written in advance and handed it over.
"Hurry to the Land of Yadan on horseback and deliver the letter to Baron Shabotai."
The old housekeeper took the letter and was slightly stunned.
Neil looked up and looked at the horizon outside the castle.
Next, he will lead people to catch up with Uncle Miller and give them a fatal blow!
"None of you can escape!"
*
*
*
Half a day later.
Things in Blackhorn Castle spread and fermented.
None of the people expected that the former lord's heir, Master Neil Lucius, would actually kill four knights with one against four in front of hundreds of people!
In addition, he also killed his uncle Miledut and his family!
knight!
That was an existence that everyone feared, but Neil, a young boy, actually killed four of them! He even left the territory with the remaining militiamen!
Countless people in the territory were horrified and thought that Neil was blessed by the God of Fire to obtain such magical power.
But some people believe that Neil was able to gain such power in just two years, mostly because he was bewitched by the devil.
It was the power he gained in exchange for his soul.
These sounds quietly spread into the Redemption Church and into the ears of Pastor Jordan.
The old priest was standing in front of the statue of the Candlestick Goddess to pray, his face solemn.
In the past two years, he had been secretly paying attention to Neil, so he knew him quite well...otherwise, he would not have offered to protect Neil during the mass a month ago.
But now it seems that Neil's performance was completely beyond his imagination.
Pastor Jordan does not think that Neil's past is hiding his clumsiness, let alone a so-called "miracle" that allowed him to suddenly gain power.
He was even more partial to believing that it was the work of the devil.
"Could it be that Neil Lucius is really possessed by a demon... If this is the case, it must be an extremely powerful demon that can escape the test of the 'Candlelight Ceremony'!"
Pastor Jordan took a deep breath.
Just in case, he decided to report the matter to the church as soon as possible. Regardless of whether Neil was possessed by a demon or not, it would not be wrong to let the church check him out.
"I hope not, alas..."
Happy Children’s Day to all the beauties!
