This knight is too perfect

Chapter 41 The sky before dawn is the darkest

On Valentine Plain before dawn.

At this time, the Thorn Cavalry Regiment was almost about to leave the plain.

As long as they walk out of this plain, it means that they have completely left the Emerald Territory and returned to the Thorn Territory that belongs to them.

Therefore, although most of the knights of the Thorn Cavalry Regiment did not say anything, each of them showed joy to a greater or lesser extent in their eyes, a joy that they were about to reach home.

But before these knights could relax, the cavalry in the front suddenly heard noises coming from afar and the roars of some unclear monsters.

The sudden change made the entire Thorn Cavalry Regiment become serious in an instant.

Without waiting for the order from the knight commander Jem in the team.

The scouts on both sides of the cavalry regiment spontaneously left the team and galloped towards the direction of the movement.

A moment later, the scouts who went out to investigate quickly sent back the news.

"Knight Commander Jem, we have found out that a group of soul stealers are chasing a young man, and that young man is now heading towards us. What should we do?"

Hearing his men's words, Jem's eyes narrowed, and then he said without hesitation: "Stop them, including the boy. If they dare to get closer, kill them without mercy."

"This……"

Hearing this cold order, the Thorn Knight hesitated.

After all, normally, shouldn't they get rid of those soul stealers, rescue the boy, and then ask what happened?

Seeing that the Thorn Cavalryman had not taken any action, Knight Commander Jem immediately said coldly: "Cavalryman, are you going to disobey my order?"

As soon as these words came out, the Thorn Knight trembled all over, and then said without hesitation: "Yes, Lord Knight."

Looking at the back of the Thorn Cavalry who had gone to convey the order to everyone, the eyes of Knight Commander Jem revealed from his helmet were extremely cold.

Afterwards, perhaps because he was worried about something unexpected happening, Knight Commander Jem actually left the center of the team and took the initiative to rush forward.

This is undoubtedly a very abnormal thing for a knight commander who is supposed to be in command...

At the same time, Rhine, who was being chased by a large number of soul stealers, was riding a horse he found from somewhere and galloping across the Valentine Plain.

At this moment, it is already the third day since Rhine left the castle.

During these three days, Rhine almost stayed awake and ran all the way towards the route where Baron Angelo was mentioned by Fergus and others.

Although Rhine is now an extraordinary person of the Black Iron level.

But as an extraordinary person on the fate side, he is far inferior to those extraordinary people on the life side in terms of physical fitness.

Therefore, these three days of sleepless nights almost exhausted Rhine's physical strength and energy.

Right now, he is supported entirely by a strong belief.

But Rhine thought he was getting closer to the Thorn Cavalry Regiment.

Those cavalrymen would first help him get rid of the soul stealer behind him, and then ask him what happened.

But when Rhine saw the situation in the distance through the Shadow Crow in the sky, he found that the reaction of the Thorn Cavalry Regiment was completely different from what he expected.

The knights at the front of the cavalry regiment not only did not go out at this time, but also drew their bows early and shot a field of arrows on the plain in front of the Rhine.

And this arrow was undoubtedly a warning to Rhine.

Warn him that if he dares to come any closer, the arrows will eventually hit him.

There are cavalry in front and soul stealers in the back.

The worst-case scenario Rhine had imagined happened.

That is, the tentacles of the Holy Communion not only extended to the ancient castle, but also to the Thorn Cavalry Regiment.

As to whether this was Baron Angelo's order.

Rhine never thought of it that way.

Because if the Holy Communion had the ability to control Baron Angelo, nothing would have happened in the Territory of Thorns.

In a flash, Rhine's brain worked rapidly and he finally made a decision.

He ignored the cavalrymen's warnings and continued to gallop towards the Thorn Cavalry Regiment.

And as Rhine crossed the field of warning arrows.

The cavalrymen, who had already drawn their bows again, immediately shot at Rhine and the soul stealers behind him.

Faced with the dense rain of arrows whistling overhead, Rhine's eyes were instantly bloodshot and some blood flowed from his nose.

This is the result of Rhine fully activating 'Knight's Protection: Humility (Absolute Concentration)' and his brain power reaching overload.

In an instant, in Rhine's eyes, the dense arrows above his head not only slowed down several times, but there were also a large number of illusory arrow shadows, which were one step ahead of the real arrows and were clearly reflected in Rhine's mind.

These illusory arrow shadows are the falling trajectories of the arrows predicted by Rhine through calculations.

Soon, a scene that shocked the knights appeared.

Rhine first adjusted the direction of the horse, then drew out the silver-white sword at his waist and began to continuously cut down the arrows that were attacking him.

Soon, Rhine actually rushed out safely from the rain of arrows.

However, the horse under him was eventually hit by several arrows, and after running a few more steps, it fell to the ground in pain.

Rhine seemed to have predicted this. Just before the horse was about to land, Rhine jumped off the horse first, and after a roll on the ground to relieve the force, he continued to rush towards the Thorn Cavalry Regiment.

At this time, he was less than fifty meters away from the nearest Thorn Cavalry.

"How, how is it possible?!"

A cavalryman looked at Rhine who had successfully rushed out of the first wave of arrow rain and said in disbelief.

So much so that he even stopped what he was doing and forgot to continue drawing the bow.

Just as some cavalrymen were stunned, Knight Commander Jem suddenly let out a roar.

"What are you still standing there for? Keep shooting!"

Upon hearing Jem's order, the cavalrymen immediately came to their senses and drew their bows and shot arrows again.

This time, Rhine not only lost the help of the horse, but his face also turned extremely pale and he had a splitting headache.

This was his body's warning, warning him that he could not continue to maintain the overloaded brain computing power he had just experienced.

Fortunately, Rhine did not intend to continue maintaining the state just now.

Because through the vision provided by the Shadow Crow, he had already determined the distance between him and the carriage where Baron Angelo was.

And this distance was enough for him to pass the message.

shhhhhh...

Facing the dense arrows that were attacking from above again, Rhine inserted the "First Judgment" in place and took a deep breath.

"Roar!!!"

Accompanied by a deafening and terrifying sound.

The terrifying sound waves were like a huge storm, blowing away all the arrows shot at the Rhine!

Although the cavalry regiment dozens of meters away was not directly attacked by the sound waves, the shocking deterrence contained in it made everyone lose their minds, and the horses under their feet began to tremble.

It was as if the sound came from some existence that made these war horses extremely afraid.

And Jem is the only Black Iron Knight in the cavalry regiment.

Although his mind was also shocked by the Rhine Dragon's roar, he was the first to come to his senses.

Looking at Rhine, who was so weak that he could only stand with the help of a sword, Jem took out his bow and arrow without hesitation.

Just as he drew his bow and aimed the arrow at the distant Rhine, a pair of withered but powerful hands grasped the tip of the arrow on his bow first.

Seeing this scene, Jem turned his head in disbelief.

Angelo, a skinny man in casual clothes, had come to his side for some reason.

At this time, Angelo looked like he would fall down if the wind blew.

But his eyes were no longer cloudy as before, and were now filled with a terrifying sharpness.

So much so that when Jem met Angelo's eyes, he felt fear from the bottom of his heart.

It was as if what he was looking at at this moment was not an old man over a hundred years old, but a lion, a terrifying lion that would eat him up at any time.

"What are you going to do with my people now, Jim?"

Facing Angelo's calm question, Jem moved his mouth, but found that he couldn't say the words he wanted to explain at this moment.

Because he was afraid, he read murderous intent in Angelo's eyes.

The old man in front of him, who was over a hundred years old, seemed to have understood everything that was happening before his eyes, including the reason why Jem wanted to kill Rhine at all costs.

Facing Jem like this, Angelo's expression instantly became complicated.

Angry and filled with sadness.

After a moment, Angelo turned around and shouted to the people around him: "My cavalrymen, what are you still standing there for!"

"Don't you see that the brave boy has sent us his signal with his actions and roar?"

"Now, listen to my command, Thorn Cavalry Regiment... Charge!!!"

"Yes!"

On the vast Valentine Plain, Rhine looked at the Thorn Cavalry Regiment running towards him with a happy smile on his face.

Because he heard it, heard the kindness of these knights towards him, and their murderous intent towards the Soul Stealer!
There is no doubt that he made the right bet.

He was betting that his dragon roar would attract Angelo's attention in the carriage.

Angelo is a man who is hostile to the Holy Communion but valued by Lilitha and others.

He must be one of those rare people who always adheres to the way of chivalry.

Such people can be deceived, but they will never stand idly by and watch the "injustice" that is right in front of them.

Especially when the people in his territory were being hunted by monsters.

The sky before dawn is indeed dark, but as long as you persist, the warm light will completely illuminate the dark sky...
