Chapter 11 [Black Snuff Bottle] and [Lamp Spirit] (for further reading)
The lid of the mouth of the black snuff pot opened by itself, and a strange black smoke came out from it. The black smoke quickly rose and condensed into a distorted human figure, just like a cry in an abstract painting.
"What kind of witchcraft is this?" The rock bear knight was shocked, and the heavy hammer hit the twisted figure.
The Hog Rider watched quietly with complacency in his eyes.
The heavy hammer passed through the twisted black smoke, and finally hit the ground, cracking the ground.
The Frostwolf Knight also slashed his sword, but he also passed through the body of the black smoke. He finally woke up, and then screamed: "Big man, this is an evil spirit, **** it, our attacks are ineffective against evil spirits! Run away!" We must report this matter..."
Before the Frostwolf Knight finished speaking, two streams of black smoke emerged from the distorted figure, and penetrated into the nostrils of the Frostwolf Knight and Rock Bear Knight.
For a split second, the two knights stayed where they were, unable to move.
The rock bear knight's arm glowed with black light, and he used the power of black energy. Suddenly, a terrifying and strange howl resounded from the rock bear knight's body.
It seemed that two forces were fighting in his body, but in the end, the rock bear knight's face lost its brilliance, and the blackness on his arms began to dissipate.
Obviously, although the black gas has the power to resist this black smoke, it is limited to this.
The situation of the Frostwolf knights was the same, they all resisted for a while before being able to continue.
Finally, the two knights fell to the ground, their eyes wide open, their expressions distorted, as if they saw something horrifying.
The vigor and energy of their bodies seemed to be emptied in an instant, and wisps of white air poured into the body of the snuff bottle "Evil Spirit", making the "Evil Spirit"'s body more solid.
These two knights looked like ordinary people in appearance, but they had no breath at all, and they were already dead.
"Hic."
The snuff bottle evil spirit seemed to be full, so he hiccupped, and then got into the black snuff bottle, leaving only one sentence echoed in the conference hall: "I am very satisfied with this transaction, according to the [principle of equivalent exchange] ], as a gift, I will make a move for your Brotherhood in the Wilderness. Next time you trade, you need to offer three knights."
"Evil Spirit" actually spoke.
Boar Rider quickly lowered his head, and said respectfully to the snuff bottle, "Okay, Lord Lantern Spirit."
After finishing all this, they looked at the corpse on the ground.
The boar knight said coldly: "As discussed at the beginning, when the three of you participated in the noble ball, you were attacked by a legendary evil spirit. The rock bear knight and the frost wolf knight were unfortunately killed. Because of your pious wearing Only the chapter of the holy brilliance of the loving father of the sky escaped the catastrophe."
"But, people in the kingdom and the church, will they believe it? Murdering other nobles is a serious crime." Silver Fox Knight asked, obviously feeling a little uncertain.
"Don't worry, no matter whether they believe it or not, no one will pursue you. Instead, they may take this opportunity to spread the word and make their Lord even more omnipotent. Moreover, the Millennium Jihad has exhausted the kingdom and the church. The following The feudal lords are already restless, I think the king doesn't care much about the death of these two barons, but will secretly breathe a sigh of relief." The boar knight sneered.
"In addition, it is an indisputable fact that the two of them were attacked by evil spirits. You did not lie on this point, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the phenomenon that these two people were completely intact and died suddenly without being poisoned. But they absolutely Unexpectedly, this evil spirit is controlled by humans, you have to believe that in this world, only our Brotherhood of the Wilderness has the ability to control this legendary terrifying evil spirit."
"The cooperation was pleasant, and the matter was successfully completed. The fly in the ointment is that the Griffin Knight did not come."
"This is a thousand gold coins. I hope our future cooperation will become more and more pleasant."
"Chaos will come eventually, may the Lord of the Wild bless you..."
After the Hog Rider finished speaking, he dropped a large bag of gold coins, then turned and left.
Only the silver fox knight was left with a cloudy expression, finally sighed, and picked up the gold coin bag on the ground.
For a small territory like Silver Moon Territory, one thousand gold coins is almost ten years of fiscal revenue.
In this world, the purchasing power of gold coins is very strong. For the Silver Fox Knight who urgently needs to expand his armaments, this is a huge sum of money, which means dozens of sets of excellent knight armor.
For this huge sum of money, even at the risk of being discovered by the Church, he still has to do so.
"The evil spirit is too terrifying. Two official knights are powerless in front of it, but it seems that the black energy can fight against the evil spirit, but the effect is very weak. In other words, the quality of the black energy of the Rock Bear Knight and the Frostwolf Knight Quantity, no."
The silver fox knight had lingering fears. Whether it was the weird invisible attack or the illusory body that could be immune to attacks, the evil spirit was invincible against the knight.
"The Brotherhood of the Wilderness has mastered the power of the evil spirits, and now it's the Kingdom and the Church's turn to struggle."
The real "winter" is coming, and no one can survive alone. What the Silver Fox Knight can do is to become as strong as possible before the winter comes.
…
A few days later, Li Wei learned of the news that the Rock Bear Knight and the Frostwolf Knight encountered the legendary evil spirit and died suddenly through the mouths of some traveling merchants in the territory.
Li Wei couldn't help sweating.
"It's a good thing I didn't go, no matter whether the rumor of the evil spirit is true or not, the silver fox knight invited me back then, he must have no good intentions." Li Wei muttered in his heart.
He is dubious about the rumors of evil spirits attacking. He has encountered evil spirits before, and he knows that evil spirits are not just legends, but this evil spirit killed Rock Bear Knight and Frostwolf Knight, but the host, Silver Fox Knight, was fine. It's a little strange.
But this is not something Li Wei should worry about.
"Knights are not opponents of evil spirits. What kind of existence are these ghosts? Finding clues to wizards has to be put on the agenda. Magic must be used to deal with magic."
…
Spring is over, and the summer of the Fire Moon is here.
After more than a month, the Holy Radiance Church's investigation into the deaths of Rock Bear Knight and Frostwolf Knight finally came out.
The final result of the investigation was that he died from an attack by evil spirits.
For a while, the whole country was panicked.
For a long time, everyone thought that evil spirits were just ancient legends.
is a lie that adults tell to scare sleepless children.
Now, its existence has been confirmed by the most authoritative church in the world!
In this regard, the Pope of the Holy Radiance Church warmly reminded the nobles and commoners that if they wear the Church’s Holy Radiance Medal with them, it will have the effect of exorcising evil spirits. It is precisely because of this that the Silver Fox Knight will be protected from evil spirits.
For a while, the commemorative badges worth one gold coin that were originally issued by the church on the occasion of the millennium were hyped to an outrageous price of one hundred gold coins.
From princes and aristocrats to wealthy merchants, they don’t feel at ease without wearing a holy badge when they go out.
After all, the evil spirits were just legends before, but now, the evil spirits are real.
Even a high-ranking knight is so vulnerable in front of evil spirits.
Of course, all of this has nothing to do with the peaceful Black Water Valley.
