Being a knight is not easy

Chapter 11: The Man in Black Robe
In the fierce battle with the transformed python, Robin's nerves were stretched to the extreme.

Suddenly, the system's sharp warning sound rang in his mind again.

He subconsciously turned his head and saw that not far away, the body of the Boar Knight was in the center of an evil magic circle emitting a strange light.

A man in a black robe was standing next to the magic circle, constantly sprinkling some unknown materials on the body of the Boar Knight. Those materials emitted strange colors and quickly melted away once they came into contact with the body.

The man in black robe was muttering to himself in a low and obscure voice, as if it was a curse from hell.

Robin looked at the weird scene and couldn't help cursing in his heart: "Fuck!"

As someone with many years of experience in reading online articles, he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

If the other party is allowed to continue to cast this evil magic, an extremely terrifying opponent will inevitably appear.

At this moment, the situation on the battlefield was already precarious, and everyone was fighting a life-and-death battle with the transformed giant python.

If another powerful enemy comes, I'm afraid everyone will be in danger.

Robin was extremely anxious. He wanted to warn others, but he was too busy being forced by the giant python to spare any time.

The giant python's huge body was like a constantly moving wall, launching fierce attacks on them again and again. Eric, Lily and Thompson were all trying their best to deal with it and could not be distracted at all.

Robin gritted his teeth and thought of a countermeasure in his heart.

Someone must stop the man in black robe at this time, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

But the giant python in front of him was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, tightly entangling them and making it difficult for him to escape.

When he was extremely anxious, the giant python attacked again. It raised its head high and rushed towards Robin like a cannonball, opening its bloody mouth wide as if it wanted to swallow him in one bite.

"Robin, get out of the way!" Eric shouted anxiously when he saw the giant python's fierce attack.

The giant python came with great force, its bloody mouth seemed to swallow Robin in an instant, the situation was extremely critical.

Robin had no intention of retreating. His eyes suddenly became sharp, as if he could see through every intention of the giant python.

Then, he took a deep breath, with only one thought in his mind: "Let's fight."

In a flash, Robin did not retreat but rushed forward to face the giant python.

Just as the giant python's jaws were about to bite him viciously, Robin seized the opportunity, leaped up, and placed his feet precisely between the python's eyebrows. Then, with a powerful kick of his feet, using the powerful impact of the giant python's attack, he shot towards the black-robed man like an arrow from a bow.

It was not until then that Eric and the others followed Robin's movements and saw the man in black robe casting evil magic.

"Stop him!" Knight Malizzi also noticed the threat posed by the man in black robes and shouted anxiously, his voice full of urgency.

"It's too late to notice now." The black-robed man slowly raised his head, a confident smile on his face, as if everything was under his control. However, before his smile could fully bloom, it froze on his face.

Because he suddenly saw that Robin's sword was stabbing towards him like lightning, the sharp tip of the sword was close at hand, flashing with cold light, as if it would pierce his body in the next second.

In a hurry, the man in black robe took out a black whistle from the magic bag he carried with him and blew it hard.

The whistle sounded sharp and piercing, and in an instant a huge bat familiar jumped out from the dense forest in the distance.

The bat familiar spread its huge wings and stood between the man in black robe and Robin like a dark cloud.

Robin's sword stabbed at the bat familiar, but the familiar nimbly dodged and struck back with its sharp claws and fangs. The black-robed figure took advantage of the moment between Robin and the bat familiar to quickly gather his belongings, chant a spell, and leave a magical mark on the ground before vanishing in a puff of black smoke.

As soon as Robin landed, he knew that the experimental materials left by the man in black robe would cause endless troubles and he could not afford to hesitate at all.

Even though the bat pet's claws were grabbing at him fiercely, he ignored it and risked being scratched. The sword in his hand fell like a storm, instantly cutting the boar rider's body into eight pieces.

Broken limbs and gushing blood splattered all over him, but there was only determination in his eyes.

"Boy, you are looking for death!" The man in black robe originally thought that he had successfully escaped, but he did not expect that Robin would dare to destroy the experimental materials he had obtained with great difficulty.

At this moment, he appeared from another corner, his eyes almost spitting fire, roaring angrily.

The black-robed man suddenly raised his left hand, and a green energy ball emitting a strange light instantly appeared in his palm.

Green threads continued to flow on the surface of the energy ball. The man in black gritted his teeth and shot the green energy ball towards Robin.

The energy ball was like a meteor, cutting through the air with a sharp whistling sound, and rushing straight towards Robin.

Robin felt the powerful energy coming towards him and his heart tightened.

He knew very well that the power of this attack was beyond his ability to withstand, so he did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

He quickly turned sideways, trying to avoid the fatal blow.

The energy ball was extremely fast and seemed to have some kind of tracking ability. It adjusted its direction slightly in mid-air and still rushed towards Robin at a high speed.

At this critical moment, Robin saw a huge rock not far away.

He pushed his feet against the ground and ran towards the rock with all his might.

At the moment when the energy ball was about to hit him, he dodged sideways and hid behind a rock.

With a loud "bang", the energy ball hit the rock heavily, erupting with a strong light and shock wave.

The rocks were instantly shattered, and countless pieces of gravel flew around like shrapnel.

Robin endured the severe pain from his wound and quickly got up from the ground. His eyes flashed with determination and anger as he stared straight at the man in black robe.

At this moment, he knew in his heart that facing such a powerful and evil enemy, he must quickly come up with a counterattack plan, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

He quickly scanned the surroundings, trying to find any weapons or items he could use. Suddenly, he noticed the broken pieces of the Boar Knight's armor scattered on the ground. One of the pieces was pointed, with an edge as sharp as a knife.

Robin didn't have time to think, he rushed over, bent down to pick up the piece of armor, and held it tightly in his hand.

Although it is not as powerful as his long sword, it can still be used as a weapon to fight back in this critical moment.

At the same time, Robin quickly recalled the battle just now. The man in black robe didn't even have the courage to stand up to the attack of his knight apprentice head-on, which showed that he was not good at close combat. This might be his only chance.

The man in black robe showed a hint of surprise when he saw Robin dodge his fatal blow, but then he returned to his fierce look.

He muttered something and quickly formed seals with his hands, as if preparing for the next round of more powerful magic attacks.
