Amuffled sound rang out from this place, resounding in all directions.
In front of the Crimson Knight, the wall behind Lu Yao shattered inch by inch.
Affected by the power contained within the Crimson Knight’s body, the wall
started to shatter from its most basic structure, turning into a pile of dust.
Lu Yao spat out a large mouthful of blood. It seemed that her injuries had
become even more serious. She fell to the ground weakly. Lu Yao looked at the
Crimson Knight who was standing in front of her, with her eyes filled witha
strong sense of unwillingness.
After experiencing this series of battles and cruel battles, not only did Lu Yao
not feel fear like a normal person, but she also became braver. The will in her
heart had never been extinguished. This kind of tenacious attitude surprised
the Crimson Knight.
“Not a bad expression.”
The Crimson Knight looked at Lu Yao in front of her and could not help but
nod, affirming her spirit and battle will. No matter what, as an ordinary girl, Lu
Yao was able to fight against her until now, and she was still able to persevere
tenaciously.
Putting everything else aside, just this spiritual momentum alone was enough
to make people praise her. In this aspect, the Crimson Knight was not stingy
with her affimation. However, she still had to do what she had to do.
With a thought, Lu Yao flew out once again. This time, she was directly fixed in
mid-air bya powerful force. In front of her forehead, the Golden Mark was still
appearing. There was a faint golden radiance blooming on it, enveloping her
entire body.
This was the power of the Golden King. At this moment, it was still
continuously providing power. Even after fighting for such a long time, it did
not fade away. However, after such a long time, the power of the Golden Mark
had finally reached its limit.
After all, no matter what it was, there was still a limit. Even if it was the Golden
Mark, which was left behind by the Golden King, it was still nothing too
extraordinary.
At this moment, there were tiny cracks on the originally bright golden mark.
On it, the mark had dimmed, and it looked a little weak.
Looking at the golden mark in front of her, the Crimson Knight stood where
she was. Her face was covered by the Crimson Mask, and she could not see
clearlv. She onlv silently stretched out her hand,
She stretched out one hand and pressed it towards the golden mark. This
action seemed ordinary, but it actually containeda terrifying power.
At this moment, Lu Yao had an inexplicable feeling in her heart. If she were to
be touched by the Crimson Knight in front of her, something extremely bad
would happen.
In reality, it was the same. In her body, the power that originated from the
Golden King suddenly rOse. At this moment, the Golden Mark was glowing. It
seemed to have sensed some danger and started to vibrate spontaneously.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard Lu Yao struggled, it was already over. Her
power could not compete with the Crimson Knight. It had always been like
this, even when she was at her peak. There was no reason for her to be able to
win now when she was weakened.
Therefore, her struggle was destined to be very powerless.
“Be quiet!”
Standing on the spot, the Crimson Knight casually waved her hand. A powerful
force surged out and casually suppressed the power that emerged from Lu
Yao’s body. Then, she continued to extend her hand.
Bang!
A crisp sound rang out in this place. It sounded exceptionally clear, like the
sound of glass shattering, appearing exceptionally bright and clear. At this
moment, Lu Yao’s body completely froze. She was unable to make any
movement
In her body, the power that had originally become one with her, almost unable
to be separated, was being affected by the Crimson Knight’s power. At this
moment, it was in a violent state, as if it was about to be extracted.
She wants to… extract the Golden Mark from my body?
Floating in mid-air, Lu Yao endured the intense pain that surfaced in her body.
At this moment, this thought flashed through her mind. At this moment, she
did not need the other party to explain. She could understand the other party’s
intention.
It was very obvious that the Crimson Knight had already lost all of her
patience. She was prepared to directly extract the Golden Mark from Lu Yao’s
body.
Once the Golden imprint was extracted, Lu Yao’s power would be completely
stripped away. She would only be an ordinary girl.
No, it was not just that. In a long period of time, the Golden Mark had already
been unable to be separated from Lu Yao. It was a part of her life. The two of
them could not be separated at all.
Hence, when the Golden Mark was completely stripped away and separated, Lu
Yao’s life would be pushed to its limits. At that time, she would die.
Die?
At this moment, this thought flashed through Lu Yao’s mind, but there was no
fear at all for some reason. Death was something that she had thought about in
the past.
Regarding this, she had had many fears and had also been at a loss. But at this
moment, when it was really time to face it, she realized that she did not seem
to have much fear in her heart. There was only a faint sense of regret.
“AfterI die, my parents and brother will be very sad…”
Under the pressure of a powerful force, as time slowly passed, Lu Yao’s mind
gradually became blurry. At this moment, her mind was becoming more and
more muddled.
If she really died here, let’s not talk about others for now. However, her parents
and brother should be very sad, right? And Ye Zi. She had spent so much effort
on her, hoping that she could restore the glory of the Golden King in the
future.
But now, looking at the situation, all of this has been wasted. She had let Ye Zi
down and also let down the expectations of others. She was going to die here
just like that.
What a pity
Silently, many thoughts flashed through her mind at this moment. As time
passed, her life would eventually come to an end. However, at this moment,
there were still variables.
A faint golden light appeared and spread out from not far away. In an instant,
the Golden Mark in Lu Yao’s body was connected, forming a mysterious
change.
A huge power bloomed in an instant, blocking the Crimson Knight’s
movements. Although it was only for an instant, it was enough. A figure passed
by from a distance took advantage of this gap to carry Lu Yao away, forcibly
allowing her to escape from the dangerous state she was in previously.
After escaping from the previous state, Lu Yao’s mind gradually recovered. In
front of her eyes, her vision was gradually becoming clear. A young girl’s face
appeared in front of her eyes. She looked very cute, giving her a very familiar
feeling
Ye Zi?
Looking at Ye Zi’s face in front of her, Lu Yao instantly woke up.
“My king, it’s not time to give up yet!”
After forcefully carrying Lu Yao down, Ye Zi gritted her teeth, looked at Lu Yao
in front of her, and said, “We still have a chance!”
Bang!
Not far away, a crisp sound was heard. The Crimson Knight’s figure appeared
once again. At this moment, it appeared in front of the two of them.
“She’s still quite loyal…”
Standing on the spot, the Crimson Knight looked at Ye Zi, who had rushed over
and saved Lu Yao at the critical moment. She did not show much surprise and
only shookher head. “It’s a pity that she was just throwing her life away.”
Ye Zi’s strength was indeed much stronger than Lu Yao’s. At this moment, she
had already recovered more than half of her strength and was able to unleash
the strength of a Fourth Ranked knight in a short period of time.
But it was a pity. The strength of a Fourth Ranked knight might be considered
strong to others, and to a certain extent, it could even be considered as a
powerhouse.
But to the Crimson Knight, not to mention a Fourth Ranked knight, even a
Fifth Ranked knight was nothing more than a piece of trash seeking death. In
this world, the Crimson Knight was the epitome of strength and power.
In front of such a strong person, she was just a Fourth Ranked knight. Even if
she came, she would just be a piece of cake. Therefore, the Crimson Knight did
not notice the arrival of Ye Zi.
“Then count me in.”
Not far away, a voice sounded again. It sounded a little old and had an
inexplicable meaning. Hearing the voice, the Crimson Knight did not look
surprised. She just turned around and looked in that direction.
There, the figure of an old man appeared and stood there. This was an
extremely old man. He looked very, very old. There was a bitter look on his old
face. At this moment, he was wearinga decent formal suit and just stood there.
It was none other than Ferrier. Standing in the same place, looking at Ferrier s
appearance, the Crimson Knight revealed an expression of interest. “I heard
that among the followers who once followed the Golden King, there was a
person named Ferrier who pledged allegiance.
1 originally thought that some of you old fogeys had finally opened your
minds.
But now, it seems that’s not the case.
She spoke with great interest. From the looks of it, she had already understood
everything Ferrier’s actions and posture at this moment had clearly displayed
his attitude.
His allegiance was not sincere. It was just a disguise, probably to better support
the Golden King. And now, he finally could not sit stil. Regarding this, the
Crimson Knight was not discouraged, nor did she have any extra emotions.
There was never a lack of smart people in this world. In the Round Table, there
were already people who had guessed the true purpose of Ferier’s allegiance,
and they had doubts about him.
It was just that in the past, Ferrier’s performance was passable, and he spared
no effort in the pursuit of the Golden King, so they temporarily put down their
doubts.
However, in reality, the seeds of uspicion had always been there. Therefore, at
this moment, the other party’s rebellion was only a matter of course.
Traitor!”
Not far away, a shout sounded.
Avril walked out from a corner and brought a group of people from the round
table to this place. At this moment, she looked at Ferrier in front of her with
thick anger on her face. “You killed Olly?
Previously, Avril and the others had not been idle. In order to avoid any
accidents, they had been wandering around this area, ready to step forward
and provide support at all times.
Just now, when the Crimson Knight and Lu Yao were fighting alone, they did
not intervene, nor could they intervene to such an extent in the battle. But
now, after Ye Zi and Ferrier appeared one after another, they immediately
rushed over.
After all, it was fine for the Crimson Knight to take down Lu Yao herself since
she was facing the Golden King. However, if she has to deal with even the
followers of the Golden King herself, then what was the use of her
subordinates for?
So, in order to show their worth, they immediately ran over. Avril stood in
place, looking at Ferrier in front of her, her face full of anger. However, Ferrier
did not show any reaction to her anger.
In the past, Avril and the others had the impression that Ferrier had always
lowered his head, looking very humble and respectful. Therefore, after a long
time, no one took him seriously.
However, at this moment, the result was a little different. Standing alone on
the spot, Ferrier was dressed in formal clothes, looking very energetic. His
body was alittle skinny, and he was already very old. However, he still stood
straight like a tall tower and would never lower his head.
When Avril and the others looked at him, a powerful aura spread out and
spread in all directions. The powerful power of true spirit swept in all
directions.
Avril’s expression quickly froze. Then, it changed with a hint of disbelief.
“N.. Impossible!”
She looked at Ferrier, who was standing there with a faint smile on his face,
and said in disbelief, “Your strength!
At this moment, Ferrier had already removed all of his disguises. All of his
aurae spread out, no longer concealed. And that Aura of the Fifth Rank. And
even among the Fifth Ranks, it was an absolute powerhouse.
At least, it was much stronger than Avril, who was also at Fifth Rank. Ferrier’s
strength was even stronger than Avril’s.
Thinking back to Ferrier’s humble and respectful past, almost wanting to kneel
down to show her loyalty, Avril’s face could not help but turn green. At this
time, she felt like she was being mocked.
“I see.”
Beside her, the Crimson Knight was still standing there. At this moment, she
looked at Ferrier in front of him and said with interest, “There’s a serious
disability within your body. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be far away from
becoming an Eternal Rank”
“For such a powerhouse to be loyal to the Golden King, you could actually
disguise yourself as before and even bend your knees to some ants who are far
inferior to you, enduring such humiliation?
“From this point of view, your loyalty to the Golden King is truly moving”
Standing on the spot, the Crimson Knight said calmly. She did not care about
the feelings of Avril and the others behind her. She only looked at Lu Yao and
the other two with interest before continuing, “It’s just that this isn’t enough.”
“Even if you were standing in front of me at your Peak state, you still wouldn’t
be able to block a few of my moves, let alone at your current state.
“What do you intend to do in the current situation?”
She asked softly, extremely curious. Hearing the Crimson Knight’s words,
Ferrier, who was sitting opposite her, revealeda decent smile. “Of course, I
won’t be a match for you.
“But compared to this old man, you shouldn’t be in a very good state right
now.
“So what if I am?”
The Crimson Knight did not comment on Ferrier’s words. He only said
indifferently, “It’s enough to take you all down”
The Crimson Knight was not in his original body. He was just a clone. Although
the Crimson Knight’s clone was still powerful, it was not as terrifying as its
original form.
And before this, the Crimson Knight had fought with Lu Yao for a long time.
Even though Lu Yao’s combat strength was great, the power of the Golden
Mark was real.
With the terrifying power of the Golden Mark, even if it was the Crimson
Knight, it would be very difficult to deal with just a clone.
If it was not for the fact that Lu Yao, the carrier, was really weak, be it her
battle will or other aspects, the winner of this battle could still be either side.
Even if the Crimson Knight won in the end, her own condition might not be
very good. Most likely, she had already used up a huge amount of power.
“Yes.”
Standing on the spot, hearing the Crimson Knight’s words, Ferrier nodded
calmly and said, “Even so, I’m still not your match.
“But if I were to risk my life, I think it shouldn’t be a problem to delay for some
time.”
“Not bad.”
The Crimson Knight nodded and did not deny Ferrier’s words. No matter what,
Ferrier was a powerhouse who was once close to the Eternal Rank. Even though
his strength had declined, he could not be seen as an ordinary Fifth Rank.
In this world, the Eternal Rank was already at the level of Sixth Rank. Even the
high and mighty Five Knights could only reach the limit of this level. They
were not completely unreachable.
Once Ferrier went all out, with the Crimson Knight’s current strength, it would
not be difficult to take him down. However, it would inevitably take a lot of
time.
This was a very normal thing. And this must be Ferrier’s plan.
“What a pity…”
Standing on the spot, the Crimson Knight sighed. Then, the aura on her body
began to slowly change. On her body, an inexplicable power emerged. The
terrifying injuries caused by the previous battle appeared at this moment.
Then, under the nourishment of brand new power, she slowly recovered.
On the spot, the Crimson Knight’s power once again recovered to its previous
state. It seemed as if it did not suffer much damage.
“This.. how is this possible..”
Feeling the Crimson Knight’s power in front of them, the expressions of Ferrier
and the others instantly changed. From what they could sense, the Crimson
Knight’s power had already reached a terrifying level.
That terrifying and powerful aura was even more terrifying and powerful than
when he was fighting Lu Yao. But how was this possible
“You didn’t use your fll strength just now?”
Many thoughts suddenly flashed through Ferrier’s mind. Then, he raised his
head and said subconsciously.
“Your interence isn’t bad.”
The Crimson Knight raised his head and forgot about Ferrier’s gaze. Then, she
shook her head. “I only intentionally used the same strength as the Golden
King to fight her.
“It doesn’t mean that I will use my full power.”
Boom!
As soon as he finished his words, the storm started to sweep across the area. It
was as if there was an angry dragon roaring in the area. It rushed into the sky
and swept across the entire planet
At this moment, Crimson Sky covered everything in the area, blocking the
vision of the entire planet. Such a terrifying aura that it covered the sky and
the Sun!
