Chapter 298 296. The Order’s response
One week later.
There are large and small gathering places scattered in the wilderness outside Cangnan City. Some are rebuilt on the ruins of the city, some are transformed from abandoned towns, and some are newly established near monster-dense areas. They serve The targets are corps, scavengers, mercenaries exploring the wilderness... There is such a gathering place transformed from a ruined town outside Cangnan City. A new outdoor tavern has been opened in the inner block, which is very popular among the undead.
Outdoor tavern.
The undead man in combat uniform carried a firearm, opened the cotton curtain and walked into the tavern. Behind him were two team members, carrying knives and sniper rifles respectively. It looked like This appears to be a small corps of only three men.
The three of them had just entered the pub. The LCD TV hanging on the counter was playing the news. The reporter stood on the ruined building and reported against the howling wind.
“Today is the third day when the Templars declare war on doomsday cultists. Not far from me, the man sitting on the balcony is the first generation knight from the Knights Templar...”
The undead man holding the gun casually sat down on a high stool, looked up at the news, and said in surprise: "Is this the third day? Those doomsday believers haven't moved yet. They are just rats living in the gutter. "
"The same thing?" The bartender was wiping the wine glass and asked without looking up.
“Of course it’s the same as before. Alas, it’s not easy to drink alcohol these days.”
The bartender put down the wine glass and rag, turned around and looked for wine on the cupboard, "Everything will be fine."
"These doomsday believers are hiding their heads and tail. I am afraid they are too afraid to challenge."
"I heard that the knight who betrayed the Templar in the history of disaster, huh, that's all he has the courage to do."
In the dark corner of the tavern, a man in black robe suddenly spoke, "Say Maybe the Lord of the Doomsday Believers just doesn’t know the news?”
“Whatever.” The immortal shrugged, he didn’t care about it at all.
The man in the corner was silent for a moment, drank the remaining liquid in the glass, and slammed the door out.
It made everyone in the tavern look at each other.
The man turned left on the street and entered a dark alley. He crossed the collapsed brick wall. When he saw no one behind him, he opened his arms, revealing the strange patterns on his skin.
"The Great Lord of Redeemer." He muttered in a low voice, with a pious expression on his dark face covered by his hair.
“I am a sinner walking in the world, please forgive my crimes, send salvation, and open the door to the kingdom of God.”
"Deliver salvation and open the door to the Kingdom of God."
The lines on the man's arm twisted like a bug, extending a golden thread deep into the unknown space and pulling him in.
Suddenly the world changed, the dim alley disappeared, the golden light shone, the musty smell lingering on the tip of his nose was replaced by the fragrance of flowers, and he appeared in a half-collapsed church.
The golden light spreads through the broken glass window on the stone floor, dyeing the wild grass and white flowers into gold. A man in white robe stands in the light with his hands clasped together, bathing in the sacred, his face is calm and natural, like a messenger blessed by God. , listening to the oracle.
The man in white robe muttered words, as if praying. After a while, he opened his eyes and looked at the man who had returned to the church.
"Servant of Sin, are you worried?"
The man's voice was like a pebble falling into the calm water, causing waves immediately. The believers who were worshiping in the church raised their heads and looked at the sudden Men showing up at church.
The man put his hands together to show respect to the man, then knelt on his knees and kowtowed devoutly, "Lord Io, the arrogant sinner has declared war on Lord Lyons outside. Three days have passed. We...maybe we should Respond to sin."
The holy messenger named Io smiled, "I already know your purpose, and I will tell Lyons for you."
The believer became excited. , "Lord Io, I am willing to be a cow or a sheep, just to eliminate the sinful person."
"Yes." Io nodded in response and walked out of the side door of the church. Time and space were reversed, and the next second he entered the plain.
The golden river flows forever, spreading its radiance over the golden garden. On the withered plain, a naked man was soaked in the golden river water and fell into a long sleep.
Io smiled slightly, came to the upper reaches of the river, sat down on the grass, lifted up her white robe, and put her feet into the river to soak.
The river was disturbed by foreign objects, causing slight turbulence. The man soaked in the river frowned and opened his eyes.
“Io, you are still so disgusting.”
The smile on Io’s face did not change, “Oh, my foot-washing water is highly prized by those believers.”
The Uncrowned Knight stepped on the sand and gravel to the shore with a gloomy face, "Tell me, what else do you want to see me for."
Io looked up at the sky and said casually. , "I heard that the Templars from this world have declared war on you."
"It's a pity. I only received the news in the past three days. Now it's spreading everywhere that you don't dare to fight and are hiding. .”
The Uncrowned Knight's face became even more gloomy, as black as the bottom of a pot. He no longer cared about whether the man in front of him deliberately informed him now. His attention was successfully attracted and transferred to the living Templar.
“Declare war on me?”
“Haha, looking for death.”
“I also think he is looking for death.” Io agreed, “But you’d better answer. Just wait, I don’t want you to be called a coward by others.”
Lyons sneered, why didn’t he know that Io was fighting against the fire? This guy’s nature is like this, I’m afraid he’s ready to see it now. Preparation for the play.
But he was also curious about what gave the knights in this world the courage to challenge him.
"Although the violent bears are useless, they are our own people after all. Those who dare to kill us..."
A cold light flashed in the eyes of the uncrowned knight, "Io, go and inform the believers. , three days later, I will personally go to the challenge site and end his life."
"I want the world to know that my majesty, Lyons, cannot be challenged."
...
In the Garden Community, Su Hong had just gone to a nearby gathering place to replenish supplies. He turned on his phone and took a casual look. The Undead Forum was flooded with posts as if it was the Chinese New Year.
“Incredible, the Uncrowned Knight has accepted the challenge.”
“The duel between the Templars and the Templars, the duel between ancient times and the modern world, this historic scene, isn’t it in the history books? It needs to be changed.”
“It’s over, did the Champagne Party win too early? I checked, and it seems that the Uncrowned Knight is second only to the Paladin. His strength is probably stronger. It's scary."
"Do you need to ask for help from the Fire Bearer? After all, the Fire Bearer has a king's heritage."
"The Uncrowned Knight accepted the challenge?" Su Hong placed the supplies. I glanced at the forum posts for a few times, then turned off the screen of the terminal and stretched on the spot.
Three days ago, he invited the Uncrowned Knight for a duel in Cangnan City, and now he finally got a response.
To be honest, he didn't really care about this duel. The Uncrowned Knight had already lost to him in the simulation. Even without Helena's help now, the result would be the same.
He was approaching the King and was looking at the vast and magnificent scenery ahead. He might be able to reach there one day.
