Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 196 Knight
Everyone began to praise Aqua, saying that this Akusis cultist with a dull mind seemed to be useful sometimes.

Aqua, who was praised, couldn't control herself now. Whenever Aqua was proud, she would lose her composure.

Kazuma hit her head with a dagger and forced her to turn over, and Aqua continued to struggle.

The two of them have always been in a state of juxtaposition between father and son, and who is the boss depends on whether Aqua makes any mistakes.

Dust sat on the ground, not caring about his image. He said, "I'm really exhausted. If this kind of enemy comes a few more times, I should consider moving to another place."

Lynn directly punctured his words: "You haven't made any contribution at all, so quickly pack up your things and go on the mission with us."

Kazuma and Aqua weren't the only two who were fraternal; this world was full of them. Dust was immediately dragged away.

Because the threat of the Headless Horseman was successfully resolved, the adventurers walked back to the town one by one, and Lu Chen followed the crowd back.

At this time, Aqua broke free from Kazuma's restraints and rushed to Lu Chen's side.

She angrily said to Lu Chen, "You haven't paid me for dispelling the curse yet! Hurry up and pay me, then join the Akusis Cult devoutly and pray to the goddess every day."

"This incident was originally caused by our team. Don't do anything that would embarrass others."

"If I remove curses for others for free, the importance of priests will decline, which will cause trouble to all priests. So quickly offer me tribute."

Lu Chen felt that what Aqua said actually made some sense, so he took out some coins from his pocket and handed them to Aqua.

Aqua was even more proud now. She went up to Lu Chen, patted his shoulder and said, "You are much better than the guy next to me who is disrespectful to the goddess. I will definitely pray for you."

I feel like this guy is actually pretty easy to deal with. He didn't even look at how much money Lu Chen gave him.

The adventurers who had defeated the Headless Horseman had already started drinking in the tavern. After all, they claimed that they had defeated the vicious Demon King's army cadres and had to celebrate.

Especially Aqua, who made money, spent lavishly in the tavern.

Next, Lu Chen began to plan to challenge the Headless Knight. He had not been able to grasp the top combat power of this world before, so he needed to stay by Aqua's side to be resurrected.

After the previous fight, Lu Chen believed that he could deal with the Headless Horseman if he used all his strength.

In this case, I have to make preparations first. I am the type of person who will only fight after making sure everything is absolutely safe.

Lu Chen remembered that water flow seemed to restrain the Headless Knight. After Aqua summoned the flood, it really weakened him. Moreover, water also has extremely important significance in mysticism.

I should buy some purified holy water from Aqua. It's easy; Aqua spends money quickly. I can just buy some when she's short on cash. It won't be long before Aqua squanders all the money she earned today.

Sure enough, the next day I saw Aqua at the street corner picking up things.

"I'm so short of money!"

A certain high priest received another oracle.

So Lu Chen easily bought some holy water purified by the goddess herself from Aqua.

Then, after getting ready, he headed to the castle alone.

Lu Chen had invited the two again. Dust refused to go, saying he had borrowed money and was about to buy some tomatoes. Edgeworth, still recovering from his previous injury, declined Lu Chen's invitation, citing his current lack of ability to defeat the Dullahan. Although Lu Chen hadn't recruited any teammates, he did bring a few of his own.

Anderson can be used as a scapegoat at that time, and I don’t think he will mind.

After leaving the town, Lu Chen summoned his mount, Curse Spirit, and rode it towards the ancient castle in the distance.

Then I started thinking that maybe I could get a dragon in this world to use as a mount.

Landing near the hill, the army of the dead led by the headless knight was stationed here. He was also prepared to deal with the adventurers' attack.

These ordinary skeleton soldiers had no way of resisting Lu Chen, and the Headless Knight, as a boss, was definitely very arrogant. He stayed at the top of the castle waiting for the challenger to arrive.

During the fight, suddenly a huge ball of fire fell from the sky.

Then a violent tremor occurred, so powerful that no one in the castle could stand. This was all because of the barrier cast by the Headless Horseman on the castle.

Otherwise, with the power of Huihui's explosion magic, the castle would be blown into powder in an instant.

Even when threatened by the Dullahan, Huihui did not change her style, but now it is Aqua who leads her to do these things.

The angry Dullahan rushed out from the top floor of the castle. Seeing Lu Chen, he complained, "It's this time every day. That Crimson Demon girl with a mental problem comes here every day and casts magic at my castle. The castle I worked so hard to repair was destroyed by her."

Then she shouted angrily, "The reason I didn't stay in the Demon King's Castle was because a group of mentally ill Crimson Demons often went there to cast magic. I came here under the pretext of investigating the divine light that appeared in the novice town of Axel, but after I got here, there were still mentally ill Crimson Demons here. I cursed her teammates, hoping she would quiet down, but I didn't expect she would still do this kind of thing."

"I didn't interfere because you were from the Novice Village, but you dared to push your luck!"

Generally speaking, the villains in this world have no class at all and are miserable in every sense of the word.

Lu Chen looked at the miserable state of the Dullahan and said, "Do you need me to comfort you?"

The Dullahan held up his own head and replied, "If it were a beautiful female adventurer, I would definitely hope she could comfort me, but for a male adventurer like you, forget it. Are you here to ask me to lift your curse? You're quite brave to have come this far. As long as you can show me your courage, I can't lift the curse for you."

After saying that, the headless knight posed handsomely.

And this has already constituted the conditions for activating Lu Chen's technique.

This kind of enemy who poses before a battle is exactly what Lu Chen has always dreamed of. This is the first time he has encountered it and he must not miss it.

So Lu Chen took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, forming seals with his hands and shouting: "The technique is reversed. The microscopic microscopic."

The cursed energy in his body was consumed madly in an attempt to shrink the Dullahan.

Black magic also burned on the headless knight's body to resist Lu Chen's magic.

"This spell is completely useless to me! I didn't expect you to be able to launch a sneak attack. I thought you were a knight as well."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure seemed to become a little smaller. Then he didn't dare to speak anymore and focused on releasing magic power.
