Chapter 729 Weapons and Black Knight
"Okay, so what we know now is that we don't have any weapons. Although we can use some combat skills with our bare hands, the power is very small."
"Another known condition is that we are in a narrow passage. There is no ventilation duct upwards and no cells on either side. There is only a straight passage going back and forth."
"The last known condition is that there's a guaranteed elite-level black knight standing in the passage. He has a shield, and his straight sword is not incapable of shield stabbing."
"so."
Hervey glanced at the people in front of him with a serious look, and everyone responded with a serious look.
"Who's willing to go and beat up the Black Knight with nothing?"
Deathly silence.
"Who wants to go get beaten up by the Black Knight with nothing?" he repeated.
Hey, hey, hey, what you said seems a little different from what you said just now? Todd seemed to have noticed some insignificant blind spot.
The silent atmosphere lasted for a while, and then, somehow, it suddenly became tragic.
"I'll go!" A Spark Knight stepped out and shouted passionately, "I'm almost forty, still single, and the weakest in the team. I'm the most qualified to go!"
"Count me in!" Another person stepped forward, loudly stating his own qualifications and arguing why he was the most suitable person to go.
"Everyone." Hervey and the others were so moved that their eyes filled with tears. Some of them even hugged each other while crying.
Hey, hey, hey, can't you just resurrect at the bonfire after you die? This isn't some other dungeon where dying without a teleport crystal is a death sentence. Why are you being so sentimental? Todd didn't understand the point of this group of people playing tricks on him.
Then he saw the Black Knight's pointy head popping out from around the corner.
"You guys are too noisy! You're attracting all the enemies!"
As soon as Todd finished speaking, the black knight rushed over with his shield raised.
The Spark Knights were caught off guard and fled in a panic, running towards the space where the campfire had existed before.
"If you guys stopped being weird I'd respect you more!"
Todd shouted out his inner dissatisfaction loudly.
It was not until the Black Knight was lured into the small room, which was like a vast plain compared to the narrow passage, that the Spark Knights organized a decent resistance and resumed their fighting stance, using the same formation they had used in their previous battle against the Undead Asylum demons.
"We can understand why it's useless against large monsters, but we can definitely handle a humanoid enemy like you!"
The Spark Knights raised their voices confidently, shouting to Hervey, "Hurry, Hervey, go find some weapons! We're all waiting for you!"
"Okay." Hervey didn't waste any words or be pretentious. He turned around and ran away, leaving the people here to confront the Black Knight.
"Well, then me too." Todd also wanted to follow, but the next moment the black knight's straight sword suddenly chopped from the side!
If the Spark Knight behind him hadn't pulled him back, he would have been split in half vertically.
"Master, please go to the back. This is not a place for you to join in the fun."
The Spark Knight who saved him dodged the Black Knight's shield attack with a small step, went around behind the opponent and punched him in the neck.
"Bang!"
After the attack, the Black Knight's body even trembled slightly!
However, it was the Spark Knight whose expression turned ugly. He said in disbelief:
"Why does it feel harder than anything I've encountered before?"
The next moment, the Black Knight turned around and smashed his shield directly into his chest. The Spark Knight instantly flew backwards and hit the wall, vomiting a lot of blood.
"What's wrong with you?" The teammates nearby rushed over to support, with shocked expressions on their faces.
He had just poured the healing potion on his companion when another person flew backwards.
Looking back, the number of people surrounding the Black Knight has decreased sharply!
"What's going on?" The Spark Knight fell into a vortex of confusion, and when he faced the Black Knight in person, he suddenly realized.
"How come his power is even stronger than the previous Black Knight!"
The Spark Knight covered his fist, which felt like it was about to break after the punch with the opponent, and his eyelids twitched wildly for a while.
I'm so stupid, really.
If I had known that the zombies would become stronger, I would have known that the Black Knight would become stronger as well.
But why, what's the reason? Why are these monsters so much stronger than the same type of monsters in the old areas of the Thane Dungeon?
I don’t understand. I don’t understand at all.
Unable to inflict effective damage to the enemy, the Spark Knights were forced to fight without taking any damage, because once they were hit by a decent attack, they would lose their combat effectiveness.
Todd next to him also tried his best to help, but the magic he was best at was fireball.
The Black Knight happens to have the highest fire resistance.
His repeated throwing of fireballs finally angered the opponent, who rushed towards them directly, and the Spark Knights couldn't even stop him.
“Help!”
Todd, who was forced into a corner and had no way to retreat, shouted.
The black knight's sword chopped down towards the head!
At this critical moment, he suddenly felt something cutting his body, and hot liquid was flowing into his body.
The next moment, the black knight's sword was hit by an external force, causing the sword to deflect. The original slashing blow turned into a slap when it fell on Todd, causing him to fly backwards and hit the wall.
"Oh, it hurts so much." He remained embedded in the wall and unable to move. It was estimated that countless bones in his body were broken.
"Huh?" The Spark Knight beside him asked in surprise, "How come you're still alive after getting hit head-on like that?"
".Yeah, how come I'm still alive?"
Todd realized it later, looked down at his body in a daze, and suddenly burst out with a swear word filled with surprise.
"How did I get so strong!?"
His typical thin body of a magician had expanded into the size of a muscular man, with so much muscle that it looked disgusting!
What's going on? Why did he suddenly become a muscular guy?
But it was this muscle that helped him withstand the attack of the Black Knight. Although his bones were broken, at least he didn't die!
"This ability. Hervey is back!"
The Spark Knights recognized the changes in Todd's body. As soon as they finished speaking in surprise, they saw several burning red lights streaking across the sky and landing accurately on each person.
Drew finally saw clearly that the red lights were actually the scales of some creature.
The moment the scales cut through everyone's bodies, their muscles swelled like Todd's!
The bleeding of the cut wounds was stopped, the broken bones were forcibly reassembled, and the unconscious consciousness was stimulated to wake up. Each of them looked like they had been transformed by some mad scientist, and all of them regained the ability to move.
It's just the style of painting. It feels like I've gone from being a member of a mysterious organization with a bit of prestige to a cannon fodder super soldier.
A large number of scales suddenly burst out from the tunnel and wrapped around the Black Knight. The other party was wielding a sharp blade in it, and the collision between the sword and the scales produced fierce sparks.
The hardness of these scales is beyond imagination, and there is no end to their number.
They seemed to lack aggressiveness and did not cause any visible damage to the Black Knight, but relying on their large numbers and hardness, they temporarily trapped him inside.
"Hey everyone, I'm back!"
Todd swore that this was the first time he found Hervey's frivolous voice touching.
The blazing flames illuminated the passage, and Hervey, whose cloak had once again turned into flames, finally appeared. He looked a little different from before.
Red lines suddenly appeared on the black armor, looking sharp like fangs. Eight strips like phoenix tail feathers extended from under the cloak and fluttered in the air. Upon closer inspection, those things were made up of the scales.
More scales flew from behind him, carrying everyone's weapons. With the weapons in hand, people's spirits immediately changed.
Todd carefully took his magic wand from Scales and couldn't help asking, "What is this?"
Hervey raised his cloak as usual and said:
"Weaponry: [Strangling Dragon Fang]."
"Weapons!?"
Todd never thought that he would see such a rare weapon in Skamiron. In fact, this was the first time he had seen a weapon.
No wonder Hervey said that he fought with weapons. Weapons can bring huge improvements to one's health!
"[Strangling Dragon Fang], a weapon left behind by a brave dragonblood warrior. His divine weapon merged with his own body, so after his death, the scales on his body fell off and formed this weapon."
Under Hervey's control, the scales were easily manipulated and suited his temperament very well.
"The scales contain all the skills that hero learned. Sometimes I can't use them all, but thanks to so many abilities, I can always escape from desperate situations."
"Becoming stronger is one of my abilities?" Todd asked.
"That's right."
Hervey gave himself a thumbs-up.
"Believe me, as long as we have the weapons in hand and believe in my abilities, we will be invincible!"
For some reason, Todd felt that the words of the man in front of him were very trustworthy.
"Huh?"
He suddenly looked down at himself, his brows furrowed in confusion.
It seemed like for a moment, he felt his muscles swell, as if he had become stronger?
But this feeling is fleeting, perhaps it is an illusion.
He saw that the Spark Knights who had obtained their weapons had regained their former spirits and were all rushing forward. They must be going to kill the Black Knight to avenge their previous humiliation, right?
It must be, right?
"Where are you going?!" Todd couldn't help but shout as he saw the crowd leaving the Black Knight behind and running towards the passage.
"Run!"
Hervey turned around and said, "Why are you going through all that trouble to fight him?"
“.”
On second thought, it seems to be true.
So Todd pulled himself off the wall and hurriedly ran away with the crowd.
