Being a knight is not easy

Chapter 12 Merit (Both chapters are released at the same time, please read them later)
Seeing this, Robin decided to take the initiative.

He lowered his body and rushed towards the man in black robe.

While running, he kept changing his route, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, making it difficult for the man in black to grasp his movements.

When he was still a few steps away from the man in black robe, Robin suddenly threw the armor fragment in his hand with force.

The armor fragments were like flying knives, piercing the black-robed man's throat with a whistling sound.

The man in black robe didn't expect Robin to suddenly attack, and the attack was so fierce.

He quickly dodged to the side, and the armor fragments flew past his cheek, leaving a shallow bloody mark.

While the man in black robe was dodging, Robin had already arrived in front of him.

He jumped high and punched the black-robed man in the face with his right fist with all his strength.

The man in black robe was in a panic and could only raise his arms to resist.

Robin's fist landed heavily on the black-robed man's arm, making a dull sound.

The man in black robe was shocked by this powerful force and took a few steps back, almost falling to the ground.

"Sure enough, the physique that the other party doesn't have is only slightly better than mine."

However, Robin did not give the black-robed man a chance to breathe. He immediately launched a series of attacks, using both fists and feet, each move carrying a deadly threat.

The man in black robe could only defend himself while looking for opportunities to cast magic.

But Robin's attacks were as intense as a storm, making it impossible for him to concentrate on chanting spells.

The man in black robe slammed his hands on both sides of his thighs. Accompanied by a gloomy breath, the darkness around him seemed to be stirred up, and two huge shadow wolves slowly emerged from it.

The shadow wolf's body was illusory, and its eyes flickered with a faint green light, as if two balls of ghost fire were swaying in the darkness. It opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, let out a low roar, and pounced towards Robin like a gust of wind.

At the same time, the black-robed man raised a sinister smile, quickly formed seals with his hands, muttered something, and cast a dark binding magic.

In an instant, several black vines suddenly sprang out from the ground, like poisonous snakes with bared fangs and claws, and wrapped around Robin's legs at lightning speed.

Robin was unable to dodge and was tightly entangled by the black vines, his legs unable to move.

The trapped Robin cried out in his heart that something was wrong, and the two shadow wolves had already pounced in front of him. One of the shadow wolves jumped high, opened its bloody mouth, and went straight to Robin's neck, about to bite it off.

At this critical moment, "bang!" a loud noise broke the tense atmosphere.

Knight Malizzi came flying like a cannonball, with an ochre-colored light condensed on the sword in his hand, like a golden lightning, and he slashed down with one sword with great power.

This sword directly cut the shadow wolf that pounced on Robin into two halves.

The Shadow Wolf let out a shrill howl and turned into a cloud of black smoke before dissipating into the air.

The powerful impact not only broke the black vines on Robin's legs, but also forced the man in black robe back a few steps.

The man in black robe steadied his body and looked up, only to see that the giant python that had originally entangled Knight Malizzi had been killed by him.

He thought to himself that the situation was already unfavorable to him and if he continued to fight, his life might be in danger.

Without any hesitation, the man in black robe waved his hands and quickly chanted a spell.

Suddenly, as if summoned, the surrounding fog quickly gathered and spread, completely enveloping the entire battlefield. Under the cover of the fog, the black-robed man and the remaining giant pythons flashed and disappeared simultaneously.

Only a gloomy word remained in the air: "We will meet again."

Robin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling incredibly relieved at having survived. He looked at Knight Malizzi, his eyes filled with gratitude. "Thank you, Knight Commander! If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have been in danger today."

Knight Malizzi patted Robin on the shoulder and said solemnly, "Don't relax yet. These wizards have strange methods. We must meet up with the lord as soon as possible and strengthen our defenses."

Knight Fitz also came to Robin, leaned over slightly, and carefully examined the wound on his back.

Although the wound was not deep, there were several bloodstains and blood was slowly oozing out.

Knight Fitz said as he checked, "It's okay. Treat the wound. According to the effect of the Earth Dragon Breathing Technique, the bleeding should stop soon." After that, he took out some herbs from the leather bag on his waist, crushed them skillfully and applied them on Robin's wound.

Then, he smiled and patted Robin on the shoulder. "How dare a knight apprentice attack a wizard apprentice? Fortunately, the other party should be majoring in biological transformation and summoning. If he was majoring in combat spells, you would have died long ago."

After hearing this, Robin felt a little scared.

Thinking back to the thrilling confrontation with the black-robed wizard just now, if it weren't for his good luck, he would probably have died long ago.

He couldn't help but shudder, and a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

Knight Malizzi said angrily, "Don't scare this kid. If he hadn't interrupted the black wizard's spell, once he had refined the Wild Boar Knight's body into a puppet, all of us here would be in danger."

Knight Malizi knew very well that once the black-robed wizard successfully transformed the corpse into a puppet, with the puppet's strength and the black-robed wizard's magic, everyone would have no chance of winning in this foggy place.

Then, Knight Malizzi looked at Robin with a firm gaze and said solemnly, "You have performed a great service this time. When I return, I will personally commend you to Grand Knight Commander Damia."

After hearing this, Robin's eyes flashed with surprise.

Seeing this, Eric, Lily and Thompson couldn't help but feel sincerely happy for Robin.

Eric smiled and patted Robin's shoulder, saying, "Well done, Robin. I didn't expect you to be so brave at the critical moment. You're going to be famous now!"

Lily's eyes were full of praise, and she said gently, "Robin, you are really amazing. We are all proud of you."

Thomson nodded continuously with a sincere smile on his face.

However, the expressions of Sylvan and the other two were not so good.

The corners of their mouths turned down slightly, and their eyes revealed a hint of unwillingness and jealousy, as if Robin had taken all the credit.

Sylvan snorted coldly and muttered softly, "Humph, it's just good luck, what's so great about it."

Dain and Camille also echoed from the side, their faces full of dissatisfaction.

The team continued to move forward, everyone with different thoughts in their minds, walking on this road where the fog had not yet completely dissipated.

However, when they were halfway there, they met up with the lord's team.

The scene before them made Malizzi and the others feel depressed. They saw that the six knights, including Lord Blot, were more or less injured.

Lord Blot's arm was wrapped in a bandage, and the bright red blood seeping through it was particularly glaring;

The other knights also looked exhausted. Some walked with a limp, while others held their chests, obviously having suffered serious injuries in the previous battle.
