Chapter 663 Luo Wei's First Stance
The sky was overcast and gloomy.

When Luo Wei and his entourage arrived at the center of Caias's royal city, the battle appeared to be over.

Corpses lay scattered in the mist, and countless Templar Knights stood along the street, lined up in order, weapons in hand, motionless, forming a cold, steel ocean of dark white knight armor.

Meanwhile, the four Dark Familiar Kings were being forced down on the execution platform.

The old king of Caias, with his hands and feet bound and his face pressed to the ground, still angrily cursed the majestic man in his golden armor who stood there, a stark contrast to his behavior when he was held hostage in the palace.

The man simply laughed it off.

He turned around on the high platform, his majestic red cloak hanging behind him, with Knight Commander Byven and Templar Knight generals such as "Pure Light Knight" Lukiran following beside him, coldly looking down at the group that had just arrived.

"I thought you'd be a little later," the man said sarcastically. "Have you dealt with enough of these trivial matters these past few days?"

The Knights Templar, Grand Master, Knight among Knights, King of the Templars—Fao Belmont Zacharias.

Before this figure, the adventurers and Templar priests instinctively showed fear on their faces, only the Darkmoon Knights gritted their teeth and placed their hands on their sword hilts.

They never imagined they would actually have to confront this person directly.

"Ants."

"...!"

The adventurers' faces showed difficulty; they had known from the beginning that this figure was invincible.

Since the enemy led their army to the Kingdom of Darkness, all resistance has been futile. No matter what forbidden methods the kings used, they could not achieve anything.

Just like now.

To be honest, they had no clear reason to stop the Knights Templar, nor any motive to support the Dark Families royal family, who were secretly plotting something. Although they were here to resolve the incident, what position or identity did they have to stop all of this from happening in the face of the current situation?

Taking a stance has now become the most troublesome thing.

Therefore, they need a force to break the deadlock.

I believe that Princess Marusir's request was probably because the dark-haired young man in front of me was ruthless towards both sides and had his own insights.

"Will you make the first move, or should I?"

"I can't believe it," said Luo Wei, who was standing in front.

Ok?
Fao glanced down at him, his mountain-like gaze fixed on him, while Rowe remained unmoved and indifferent.

"What do you want to say?"

“It’s nothing,” Rowe said, still looking at him. “If you’re going to execute these kings, do it quickly. I’m not in a rush, so I can wait until you’ve finished killing them before I start.”

"So that's how it is. You're the one who stole our information and caused chaos in the city, aren't you? And what are you planning to do standing with the demon god whose name you stole?"

With a reminder from Knight Commander Byven, Fao recognized Rowe's identity.

Lowe simply stood below and watched him.

Why else do you think I'd be here?

“What,” Fao looked at him and smiled contemptuously, “you don’t think you can stop us with these people?”

"In some ways, you're right."

“Ha…” Fao looked at him from the high platform, “We have perfectly legitimate reasons for being here, and you don’t care about the lives of these kings, yet you want to try to stop us?”

"Yes."

"So, your stance is clearly to provoke both sides, without even knowing which side you support," Fao almost laughed. "Are you planning to choose neither side, or are you trying to cultivate a new force from here?"

“No—” Luo Wei shook his head, standing still. “I have a clear stance between the two of you.”

"Oh? Whom do you support?"

"I support these five Dark Families."

Fao wondered if he had misheard. He glanced back at the four kings who were being held down on the execution racks, and their expressions also seemed to suggest that they had misheard.

“You mean…” Fao narrowed his eyes and turned around, “you don’t care about the lives of these kings, yet you support their countries? If you are fighting for the people here, shouldn’t you stand with us?”

Lo Wei shook his head again.

"I am not fighting for their people."

"So you mean..." Fao chuckled, almost completely bewildered by his words, "that you support the regimes of these kings, but their lives or deaths are none of your concern?"

Lo Wei finally nodded this time:
"I don't know if they'll live or die, but you're definitely going to die today."

The oppressive atmosphere in the square suddenly made the sky seem several degrees darker.

The adventurer standing behind Luo Wei was momentarily speechless, feeling a bit like he couldn't breathe for him. To openly support the Dark Familia and say such things in front of the other side, was he courting death...?
Just standing behind him, he couldn't help but sweat from squeezing the other person's palms.

He whispered a reminder from behind, "...Don't you want to look at our current situation?"

There's more than just that Knight King here.

On the streets shrouded in black mist, thousands of Templar Knights stood in a cold, imposing line, as cold as soulless armor, yet also steel weapons that swept across the kingdom and were invincible, a testament to the might of their army.

If he's either insane or blind, how could he openly declare support for the other side when faced with such a massive army of knights who have already occupied the entire city with a legitimate reason?

They had considered it, but they hadn't expected him to be so resolute, without even the slightest hesitation.

Even the Darkmoon Knight in the squad hadn't anticipated this. He didn't even dare to hope that the other side would support their country without hesitation. Why?
why?
Given the undeniable problems on both sides, and the high probability that he would unexpectedly choose a third or even fourth path, why did he actually choose the simplest answer, contrary to his usual behavior?!
What lies before them.

This was absolute force, a vast and mighty army of knights, rightfully eliminating evil and sweeping away its evil; any resistance would be futile.

Fao's gaze was filled with mockery, and his words were utterly disdainful.

"What can you, a mere ant, change?"

"Ants?" Luo Wei chuckled. "Heh, that's interesting."

No one expected him to step forward and support the five Dark Families at this time, nor did they understand why he did so. But his laughter seemed to mock Fao's overestimation of his abilities, as if this so-called Knight King was utterly insignificant in his presence and did not take him seriously at all.

Even if Faul himself could tolerate it, the Templar Knights officers behind him couldn't stand it anymore. "Who do you think you are?" an adjutant stepped forward. "Even if the Temple of War came, they wouldn't object to the situation here. Are you trying to make yourself stand out by openly opposing everyone? We've learned of the plot here and are bringing troops to punish them. Even the people here support us. Do you think you can change the situation here?"

The demon god Astaroth gave the black-haired youth a deep look.

His decision was clearly not made on the spot; he had decided to support these five Dark Families long before, even though that was actually his own stance. But why...?
Why did he forcefully intervene as a third party in this complex situation, yet already establish his own position in his own way?

He couldn't see through it at all.

Luo Wei stood there, his back to him, without the slightest hesitation.

"Are you done talking? If you're done, I'm going to take action."

This action directly angered the adjutant, who believed that they held absolute justice here, and that any act of openly supporting the Dark Families royal family's rebellion was heresy, and no one could change that!

Without hesitation, he ordered the Templar Knights below: "Arrest this arrogant fellow and behead him on the spot!"

However, almost at the same time, Luo Wei seemed to pull something out and then put it back to its original state, so that no one could see it clearly for a moment, as if he had just made a flicking motion.

The knight, who had just drawn his weapon and stepped forward without a trace of emotion, stopped in his tracks.

"What did you do?" the adjutant demanded.

Luo Wei looked up at him expressionlessly: "Haven't you realized yet—they're all dead."

boom--!
The sudden, overwhelming force shook the entire street, as if a sudden surge of air pressure had swept through. The sides of buildings on one side were destroyed, and the whole road was shaken and roared.

Under such pressure, dozens of Templar Knights along the street were torn apart in a flash of black light, disappearing into the black ripples along with the strike.

"what!"

The adjutant on the platform, the Knight Commander Byven, and the adventurers behind Rowe all stared wide-eyed in horror. This…

What on earth is going on?!
"Didn't you see it clearly?"

Luo Wei coldly observed their reactions, then swung his sword again.

The knights on the other street were crushed like chickens and dogs. The same expanding sword energy made their armor fly like scraps of paper in front of the divine might.

adventurer:"!!!?"

What... what is this?!
They were almost completely shocked by what they saw. He chose an answer that was unexpected and the least likely to be chosen, and he displayed an attack method that was completely beyond their comprehension. Who was he?!

In contrast to the group's shock, Knight Commander Byven and "Pure Light Knight" Lukiran, along with other generals, jumped down from the high platform almost simultaneously. Reacting swiftly, they joined forces with the other Templar Knights who had sprung into action, and without hesitation, swung their swords at the arrogant black-haired swordsman.

Since they've openly admitted to being enemies, what else is there to say?

kill him! !
At this moment, Luo Wei's gaze turned cold.

"Magic Pattern Sword - Ripple Slash -"

A massive, swirling slash, the black sword ring sweeping across the scene like waves on the sea.

Swah——

The Templar's armor was pierced through like tofu. Lukiran, who had blocked the way with his holy sword, suddenly struggled. He gritted his teeth, glanced back, bent down, brushed past the sword ring, and roared as he charged toward Rowe.

“Haa ...

The Lightbringer's greatsword unleashed its divine power, and Lugiran, in coordination with several other divine beings, launched an attack. Meanwhile, Lovi merely turned sideways and raised his hand, slicing a wave of aurora that shot straight into the sky through the city.

"Demon-Patterned Sword - Lonely Moon Aurora"

The sky suddenly brightened a bit at that moment.

Two deities were instantly pierced through by the moon halo, along with more than a hundred Templar Knights along the way. Knight Commander Byven barely dodged the scene as the moon rose, and stared blankly at the terrifying light spreading across the sky behind him, speechless.

What...what is this?!
Also stunned were the four Dark Familiar Kings who were pinned down on the high platform. This power was completely beyond their comprehension; they had never even imagined it.

Luo Wei didn't give anyone present any time to be stunned.

"Demon-Patterned Sword - Black Rain of Hatred"

A sudden downpour of black rain fell on the capital of Kaias, washing over the entire battlefield. In the brief moment before everyone looked up, Luo Wei had already gathered his sword energy, the divine power in his hand turning from black to gray.

"The End Wave Sword—"

Rumble, rumble, rumble! ! ! !
A terrifying, gray divine might swept across the city.

The thick beam of light seemed to crush everything in its path to the very end of the city. No Templar Knights could be seen on this side of the street anymore; they were annihilated in a terrifying gray waterfall of light.

"You—!!"

Lukiran leaped out from one side of the gray torrent and slashed the holy sword at Lovi with all his might.

Then it was stopped by Lo Wei's blackened arm with one hand.

He glanced disdainfully at the Templar Knight, his dark left hand corroding the blade of his holy sword, and kicked the man dozens of meters away, sending him crashing into a building with a loud bang.

Then, ignoring the Templar Knights who continued to surge forward, Luo Wei coldly raised his head towards Fao himself, who was still standing on the high platform—

"Why don't you come down and try? You mere third-level god trash."

"..."

Fao looked at him with a solemn expression, but showed no fear. More knights surged toward Rowe, and the merciless swords danced like a killing dance.

Hundreds of Templar Knights surged forward, but very few even got close to him.

He was like a merciless grim reaper, descending upon the earth in the center of the battlefield, wielding his sword without the slightest hesitation.

Witness this scene.

Fao's expression turned cold for a moment.

Could it be that he...

Already know?
