Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Roy and Toran acted simultaneously, standing in front of the Nightmare Knight.

Faced with these two who suddenly rushed at him, the Nightmare Knight charged without hesitation.

Roy tried to swing his longbow to stop the Nightmare Knight, but the moment the longbow made contact with the blade, he groaned and was sent flying backward.

Toran glared at him: "You're still hiding things at a time like this!"

"I'm an assassin! Have you ever seen an assassin who can go toe-to-toe with Nightmare in terms of strength?" Roy finally managed to stop himself and angrily cursed, "Why are you running around the Nightmare Knight? If this hothead hurts Qi Lin, we'll all be dead!"

"I'm a bounty hunter, and I also do surprise attacks!" Toran retorted decisively.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the soles of the Nightmare Knight's shoes rapidly enlarging in his field of vision.

With a scream, Toran rolled a long way away like a ball.

The Nightmare Knight, having achieved consecutive successes, gained even more momentum and stepped forward to press his advantage.

But as soon as he landed, the ground caved in and made a crisp sound of a mechanism being triggered.

The bounty hunter's skills, honed in the wilderness, are beginning to shine in this city, giving the young Nightmare a taste of his own medicine.

The Nightmare Knight staggered as he leaped out of the fire from the exploding trap. Before he could regain his footing, three blue arrows shot towards him.

He quickly swung his sword to deflect the arrows, but the next second, Toran charged from the side with standard knightly charge techniques, knocking the Nightmare Knight flying and sending him tumbling several times.

The Nightmare Knight wasn't angry; instead, after regaining his footing, he let out a hearty laugh.

"This city finally has a few worthy rivals!"

Seeing that this guy was still not giving up, Roy gritted his teeth and launched a verbal attack:

"Nightmare, stop. Your opponent shouldn't be an assassin or a bounty hunter, but a knight."

Your goal in coming to this city wasn't to become a warmonger, but to find your own kind and undergo trials, right?

"Hmph, a knight?"

The Nightmare Knight sneered: "This city is already corrupt, the knights are dead in name only, and the once mighty Pegasus has become weak and powerless. I have only gained disappointment in this city."

After defeating you, the Radiant Knights and Blood Knights will follow, and then I will leave this place.

“But if you continue like this, then… oh no, I can’t say that.”

For the first time, Roy felt a bit tongue-tied: "You're looking for the Heavenly Path, your goal is to follow the Khan, why are you targeting us? We're not the Khan."

“That’s right, that’s right!” Toran nodded vigorously.

"This is my own glory, and I don't need your judgment!"

The Nightmare Knight was enraged, his aura surging.

Just as his momentum reached its peak, a sudden blast of cold air poured down on him, covering the Nightmare Knight's body with ice crystals.

Qi Lin's golden eyes remained unmoved as she calmly said:

"First of all, I don't need to be protected."

Secondly, you carry his scent, and you are one of his chosen ones. I won't kill you; leave.

"Just you?"

The Nightmare Knight roared, shattering the ice crystals on his body.

But before he could act, an even more terrifying cold wave descended from the sky, and the air in the street began to be shrouded in a thin layer of white mist.

Roy, Toran, and the others were so shocked that their eyelids twitched.

This was the first time they had ever seen Qi Lin take a serious stance.

Monique was so shocked that she was speechless on the spot.

Only now did she realize that Qi Lin had not used her true strength when they fought before.

Chapter 453 Qi Lin: Everyone likes me and is willing to teach me a skill

A cold front swept through the streets, and everyone instinctively huddled up to ward off the chill.

They were only affected by the cold wave and this is how they felt. How terrifying must the people in the heart of the cold wave be experiencing?

Everyone looked at the spot where the figure had been swallowed by the cold current, their eyes filled with fear.

What kind of monsters are these brother and sister?

"You are strong!"

The Nightmare Knight's roar pierced the cold current, as did the blade in his hand.

The Nightmare Knight, covered in ice crystals, stepped out of the cold front.

His steps were difficult, yet incredibly determined.

A hint of surprise flashed in Qi Lin's eyes as she carefully examined the stubborn, even somewhat obsessive, guy in front of her.

The other person should be very young, not much older than me.

The blade sliced ​​through the cold air, seemingly transcending the constraints of space, passing over Roy and Toran, and striking the ice pillar beside Qilin.

The ice pillar that Qi Lin casually conjured was clearly no match for the power of the Nightmare Knight. It quickly developed large cracks and eventually shattered into pieces.

Qi Lin ducked to avoid the blade, recalling Gavial's teachings in her mind. She lunged forward, gathering her strength, and punched the Nightmare Knight in the abdomen.

The immense force even caused the air to burst.

The Nightmare Knight arrived quickly and returned even faster, his body flying backward like a cannonball.

Roy, Toran, and the others felt their eyelids twitching.

They had never seen anyone like Luper with such a physique, making them feel that even if it were Vayvan standing in front of Zilin, he might not gain any advantage.

Qi Lin struck successfully, yet her expression remained calm.

She knew that this level of attack could not defeat her opponent.

The chill that permeated the street swirled back and gathered in Qi Lin's palm. She recalled the techniques that Froststar had taught her and compressed the chill to its maximum extent.

A blue ice blade appeared in Qi Lin's palm, then she slashed vertically, which met the long-handled scimitar of the Nightmare Knight who was charging forward again.

The ground shattered as the two struggled.

Qi Lin calmly observed the Nightmare Chaser Knight engulfed in fanaticism before her, and suddenly spoke:

"You're not as determined as you seem; you're the most confused guy I've ever met."

"If you want war, then let's fight! Why all this nonsense!" The Nightmare Knight seemed a bit agitated.

"Because Qi Yan chose you."

Qi Lin moved with elegance and precision, using the combat techniques she learned from Thorn to easily deflect the Nightmare Knight's scimitar.

Then, taking advantage of the moment when the Nightmare Knight was exposed, she reached out her fair fingers and pressed them against the Nightmare Knight's chest.

Qi Lin used the techniques she learned from Shining, and the terrifying chill that could freeze the soul seeped into the Nightmare Knight's body through her fingertips.

The Nightmare Knight's alarm bells rang loudly.

If he doesn't dodge this attack, he'll die!

Countless black arms emerged from the shadows beneath his feet, grabbing his body and forcibly changing his position, severing the connection between Qi Lin's fingertips and the chilling energy.

"I still haven't mastered this technique enough," Qi Lin commented on herself.

The Nightmare Knight's breathing was somewhat disordered, and he tightened his grip on his weapon.

Qi Lin recalled the knowledge she had learned from Kal'tsit and said calmly:

"Only those who are lost like to talk about their goals. This land has never lacked madmen, but losing your goal will only drive you crazy. You are moving forward, but you don't know where you are going."

Perhaps you need to find someone willing to help you, or someone who can wake you up, but unfortunately, that person isn't me.

While the surrounding crowd was shocked by Qi Lin's strength, they were also puzzled by her nonsensical words.

Only the Nightmare Knight trembled:

"Don't ask me, just keep going. Someone will take care of everything." Qi Lin planted the ice blade in her hand into the ground. "Do you still want to continue fighting?"

Should we continue this pointless farce?

"This is my trial..."

Before the Nightmare Knight could finish speaking, Roy interrupted him.

"You silly kid, keep hitting me! Look at yourself, you're shivering from the cold," Roy said with a grin. "It's not just you, we're all shivering from the cold. We're all out here, we should have some sense of public decency."

"I'm not shivering because of the cold!" Nightmare Knight roared.

"Okay, okay, I believe you. It's not cold, it's not cold. Oh, we're not cold," Roy reassured him repeatedly.

Unfortunately, his reassurance made the Nightmare Knight feel misunderstood, especially as if he was the one who was afraid.

He is a nightmare, born to spread fear, how could he possibly tremble because of fear?

"You...you're trying to provoke me!" The Nightmare Knight was unusually clever for once. "You're trying to divert my attention to you, huh!"

"This kid has been smart since he was little." Roy gave him a thumbs up.

Nightmare Knight: "..."

Just as Roy was preparing to take the pony for the third time, the Nightmare Knight, contrary to his usual behavior, suddenly calmed down.

“Tell me your name,” Nightmare Knight said to Qi Lin.

"Hmph, until we meet again!"

The Nightmare Knight turned and left without any hesitation.

Roy turned to the others, grinned, and said, "Hey, everyone's happy!"

Toran and Sona looked displeased, giving a cold shoulder to this guy who had suddenly integrated himself into their lives as if he were an old friend.

"Don't be like that, we've been beaten up together before, after all."

Roy rubbed his hands together and said to Sona with a forced smile, "I was just joking with you guys. Please, have mercy and give me the chip related to the Unarmored Alliance."

I guarantee this matter will be resolved, and the Unarmored Alliance will vanish from this land. Are you satisfied now?

“I’m sorry, I’m fed up with being controlled by others.” Sona refused without hesitation.

"Then... please take care."

Roy put on a tearful expression, moved to the side, and bowed like a hotel doorman to see the group off.

Monique approached Roy, her face grim, and asked in a low voice:

"Are you just going to let them leave like that?"

"if not?"

Roy gestured towards the ice blade that Qi Lin had stuck in the ground, "You want to spar with the lovely Miss Qi Lin a couple more times?"

Monique showed a look of lingering fear, but her anger quickly returned.

"Did you already know Qi Lin's strength, and still send me to restrain her?!"

"I know, but not entirely... Hey, hey, don't hit me, I was wrong!"

Roy fled in panic ahead, while Monique followed closely behind, gritting her teeth in anger.

After everyone had left, a candle suddenly lit up in the shadows.

Viviana emerged from the shadows carrying the candlestick, glanced at the ice blades on the ground, and then at the direction where Qilin and Sona had left.

"That person certainly didn't expect their arrangements to turn out this way."

Viviana couldn't help but smile wryly: "This is the first time I've seen that miscalculator, Qi Lin, the Nightmare Knight... Just who sent these people to cause trouble?"

This woman, as beautiful as a poem, shook her head, no longer dwelling on things she wasn't good at, and turned to go back and report the failure of her plan.

But before she could take a few steps, the terminal in her pocket vibrated.

Viviana connected to the terminal and was startled by the report.

At that moment, not only Viviana, but many people in this city plunged into darkness received a message that shocked them almost simultaneously.

A group of people entered the city.
