Chapter 72 Silver Knight

"I know what you're going to say, but you're welcome!"

As if she had been stared at by Li Re with an expressionless face for too long, Xiao Se, who also had an expressionless face, opened her red lips and spoke calmly. The shadow cast by the brim of her hat swayed gently in the light of the fire in the distance. Her figure was also half shrouded in darkness, but she still looked tall and heroic.

Lu Fang's whole body tensed up even more at this moment. He looked at Li Re, and then at the other female player who had suddenly arrived. Although his first reaction when Su Anxiao was attacked was that he had fallen into a trap, looking at the situation now, he quickly overturned his speculation at that moment.

Look at this performance,

This female player didn’t seem like she was the one who had planned an ambush in advance by the supernatural player named Li Re!

At this moment, he had no time to care about Su Anxiao, who was seeing her vent becoming less and less. He just hoped that these two equally expressionless guys could have some conflict - preferably a fight!

This way he can escape...

At this time, Li Re finally spoke——

"Do you want to fight?"

Damn, is this person so considerate?

Lu Fang suddenly felt touched.

"It seems like you don't thank me at all." Xiao Se raised his eyebrows, a little confused: "It's fine if you don't thank me, but why are you so hostile to me?"

"Guess?" Li Re's expression became more and more unfriendly!

Anyone would feel unhappy if their plans were suddenly disrupted.

Of course, the more important reason was that he felt that the girl in military uniform in front of him was also very strong - he was deeply impressed by the silver light that was similar to the sword light emitted by the other party when she swung her saber.

Now that the formation of the illegal trio has been broken,

Then if you change your opponent to the woman in front of you, the result will be similar!

However, facing Li Re's unkind words, Xiao Se avoided the question and said, "I heard your reasoning just now. It's very interesting."

"I can let you get your weapon back, and let you fight me at your best!" Li Re continued.

Xiao Se also continued: "Your ability is very good. I can see that your ability to steal darkness in exchange for a brief moment of light is not the real limit. How about it, are you interested in cooperating with me... to complete this mission, or even complete all the side quests and solve the mystery of the world?"

At this moment, the two of them stood in a corner between light and darkness, talking to each other face to face.

Lu Fang and Zhou Yu, who were trapped in the middle, looked at Li Re and then at Xiao Se, wanting to take the opportunity to escape, but found that their way was blocked by the two!

It’s over.

Lu Fang thought.

A look of despair also appeared on Zhou Yu's face.

One professional psychic player was already enough for the three of them to be on high alert, and now with the addition of an unknown but definitely powerful player...the trio without one member could never be their match!

So Li Re frowned:

"Aren't you going to take action?"

The girl with the player codename "Xiao Se" also said:

"Not cooperating?"

Both of them were talking to themselves as if they were chatting across servers.

But in fact, it was not just Li Re, Xiao Se's words were also serious - she was really seeking cooperation with Li Re, and she really valued the ability of this psychic player.

I have already attached great importance to it before.

As the first person to walk out of the tent, she did not actually leave, but hid around the tent and followed Li Re secretly.

That's why it appears at this seemingly appropriate time.

I wanted to help.

It just seems like... it backfired?

Xiao Se felt quite regretful, and it was even more impossible for her to really fight with Li Re.

Li Re confirmed that she really had no intention of taking action, so he could only give up - he couldn't take action first, right?

This girl is obviously a high attack and low imitation type player,

What if I lose control of my strength and kill her? Wouldn't that be a waste of such a powerful attack?

But Li Re still wants to try more...

clang!clang!clang!

Suddenly, a loud and shocking sound rang out from the center of the entire camp.

Li Re paused and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw that the fire at the core was still glowing, but it had been visibly extinguished - the fireworks gradually collapsed downwards, and the blazing outer flame seemed to be gradually swallowed up in the darkness.

An old figure stood in front of the stove, and his hoarse voice echoed as the world gradually dimmed.

"It's time to add more wood to the fire."

"Darkness is coming."

"Those who remain, please prepare yourself!"

Time to add firewood?

Li Re's heart moved slightly.

Xiao Se's expression suddenly became nervous!

She moved directly to the female illegal player who was completely dead, and pulled out her saber that was pinning her to the ground.

The blade lightly brushed across her sleeve to wipe off the blood, and the girl turned around, sheathed the saber, and prepared to leave.

But before leaving, she glanced at Li Re who was nailed to the spot.

Suddenly, he reminded, "It's time to add more wood to the fire. From now on, the entire camp, except for the inside of each tent, will fall into a darkness like an abyss, a realm that you can never escape from."

"Then the giants will attack - the only safe place is the fire!"

Leaving behind these words that were obviously meant well, the girl left swiftly.

Li Re's heart moved again.

"The Abyss... doesn't sound like a place I want to go."

He thought so.

"Lee hot!"

A clear and pleasant voice was heard in the camp, which had not yet completely darkened. Lu Baixi ran over with her shapely legs and skirt swaying, and said breathlessly, "It's dark...it's getting dark. Let's go back!"

That's what she said.

There was no need for any reminder as to what darkness represented in this world. Having experienced it once, she knew it very clearly!

But even though it was dangerous, her first reaction was not to return to the tent.

Instead, he came over and pulled Li Re along.

This time Li Re did not refute, but nodded and said, "Then let's go."

"Use the key I gave you!"

soon.

A breath colder than darkness blew out, and the crack in nothingness opened in an instant. Li Re held the "key to the underworld" in his hand and opened the gap in the underworld, intending to use it as a passage. He instantly crossed a distance of nearly 100 meters and brought Lu Baixi directly back to the tent.

But before stepping into the gap, he suddenly looked back at the fire.

I saw that the figure of the old man who was standing there had disappeared.

Instead, there was a figure like a classic knight wearing silver armor and holding a huge sword.

Silver Knight.

Silver Knight

He thought of the title mentioned by the old man who was called 'Gatekeeper' earlier.

Is that the 'owner' of this camp?

His eyes moved and in a flash, Li Re stepped into the gap, and then disappeared in the gap that closed in an instant.

At this time, Lu Fang and Zhou Yu, who had been ignored, finally dared to speak.

"Finally left... I thought I was going to die!" Lu Fang said this in a quick tone:

"Hurry up and find a tent with a fire. I have a feeling that something bad will happen if we continue to stay here—"

If they stayed here any longer, Lu Fang felt that even if the mission they accepted was to help the giants destroy the remaining human civilization and eliminate the 'Silver Knights', it would be useless if they still had the tool that could summon giants in their hands!

You have to know that although they can summon giants, they cannot control them - that prop is just a signal!

"We should still make it in time." Zhou Yu also nodded: "Luckily, those two guys seem to have forgotten about us, and the meteorite daggers in our hands are still there... Shit, where's my dagger?"

He subconsciously grasped the dagger and found that his hand was empty without him knowing when.

Lu Fang was stunned for a moment, and his expression suddenly changed - his hands became empty, and even the prop for summoning giants hidden in his arms was gone!

They also looked at Su Anxiao's body at the same time.

The woman who was gradually swallowed by the darkness also had empty hands.

At this moment, under the cold wind, the two suddenly felt a chill on their backs - an inexplicable shudder arose spontaneously!

It is also this moment.

The 'Silver Knight' standing in front of the fire slightly opened his eyes.

He glanced toward the edge of the camp.

That was exactly where Li Re was standing before he disappeared.

"It's time to add more firewood."

An old voice sounded behind the Silver Knight. The Gatekeeper whispered, "All the firewood has been prepared."

"Then put out the fire and throw it into the furnace!"

The Silver Knight turned around and said so.

Everywhere I looked, I saw old figures that looked just like the gatekeepers.

It is also the tenacious will of those who have gone through hardships and struggled to survive in a world on the verge of ruin.

"I will pray for you in the new world."

The Silver Knight said finally.

The last words fell.

The afterglow of the fire finally faded away completely.

The whole world then fell into complete darkness, without a trace of light.

Chapter 73: Putting out the fire and adding fuel

【Meteor Dagger】X3.

【Giant's Beacon】.

The bonfire in the tent was still burning fiercely, but outside the tent it was gradually sinking into darkness. As the stove in the center of the entire camp went out, all the external light seemed to be blocked - the indoor and outdoor areas of the camp almost became two different worlds.

The two lone players still stood in their respective corners illuminated by the fire, silent.

Li Re opened a passage directly through the gap in the underworld and teleported into this tent. He sat down in front of the campfire with Lu Baixi. He glanced at the furnishings in the tent which had not changed much, and stared at the darkness outside. He thought that no wonder the old man had asked them to protect the campfire. Under normal circumstances, if there was no campfire, they would probably have been swallowed up by the darkness and be visited by the group of giants again!

At this time, Xiao Se hurriedly walked in from the world outside that was gradually being swallowed by the abyss.

Her pretty and heroic face, with her blonde hair swaying under the hat brim, revealed a hint of surprise in the firelight.

When she saw the young man and woman in front of the campfire, she was stunned - she seemed surprised that Li Re came back here faster than her.

Li Re ignored her and turned his gaze away from outside.

Then I silently calculated what I had gained from this trip...
