Masked Knight

Chapter 281: The dark hand under the light (Part 2)

There was silence in the air, and it seemed that the other party did not retort.

Rody was on alert. He had already seen that the other party must have mastered a high-level magic that could make him invisible, just like the blood escape attack of the Vampire Clan—even Fatty Tianlie, who was a strong man in the field, could not crack it. It's like the invisibility method of the Silver Moon Clan that Dan Yue Wu uses.

Roddy remained calm and slowly opened his domain. He held the hilt of the knife in his hand and smiled coldly: "Why don't you speak? I said it right, right? Then do you want me to continue talking? Woolen cloth?"

His tone changed and he spoke faster: "I was originally thinking about why the dwarves suddenly became everyone's target. With the current situation in Roland Continent so turbulent, everyone is so anxious to take action against the dwarves. Naturally, it is for They have something that can threaten the temple! My guess is right! King Sauron naturally wants to get it... but the temple doesn't want to get it either!

Before Rody finished speaking, the voice finally spoke again: "So you think someone from the temple secretly manipulated this fool? Really?"

Rody said coldly: "There seems to be only one explanation, right? The reason is very simple... Hum, those who oppose the temple want to get that thing, doesn't the temple itself not want to get that thing?"

The voice sighed and said calmly: "Yes, yes, it makes sense. If it were normal times, that thing would just be left with the dwarves. But the current situation is too tense, and it is difficult to put such a thing in the hands of others." , naturally it can’t make people feel reassured.”

Rody smiled and said: "Yes. As early as when I came to Baqi Country, when that thing existed, I started to feel doubtful in my heart. I always felt that it was impossible for the temple to remain silent on such a matter... And I stood in the meeting hall of the shogunate today, and I understood it as soon as I saw Oda Nobunaga and Kikukawa Koichi. "

The voice was finally a little surprised: "You understood it at that time? How did you see it?"

"Murderous aura!" Rody said calmly: "Only those who have been on the battlefield and experienced the bloody storm can feel that murderous aura! At that time, before the samurai was preparing to kill, the body could not control the aura emitted! Hmph... It was obviously a gathering of everyone. They are discussing matters, but they carry murderous intent, which naturally makes me suspicious. "

The voice was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "I learned a lesson! If I do something like this again next time, I will definitely remember your reminder." The voice smiled again: "It's best to avoid you. ”

Roddy had already walked to Kikukawa Koichi, looked around cautiously, and said in a deep voice: "Okay! Enough of the nonsense! I want to take this person back! If you have any skills, use them quickly. !”

The voice was still very calm, and seemed to have a bit of regret: "It's a pity, you are the strongest human being I have ever seen, and I really don't want to be your enemy now... But. Since I know If you want to take this person back, of course I won’t leave this mouth to you. After all, the temple symbolizes light, and we can’t let this beast’s mouth tarnish the light of the temple.”

The scimitar in Rody's hand gave a false strike and said sternly: "What is light and darkness? If what you do is dark, then no matter how much you claim to be bright, it is just a lie!"

silence…

Roddy suddenly raised the hilt of the knife and hit Kikukawa Koichi lightly on the head. Kikukawa Koichi passed out without even making a sound. Rody gritted his teeth and lifted him up. Holding a scimitar in one hand, he strode towards Kyoto.

The air suddenly changed!

A spiral blade of light suddenly appeared in front of Rody out of thin air and shot toward Rody's chest with roaring energy. Rody sneered, without even raising the scimitar, and shouted coldly: "Broken!"

The entire space suddenly distorted in Rody's thoughts, and the huge spiral blade of light quickly dissipated in a matter of seconds. But then suddenly a dense network of light suddenly appeared from the sky!

The light net faced Rody head-on with a strange light and went down. A stern look flashed in Rody's eyes, the Dragon Curse Scimitar quickly drew a cross, and two light blades, one horizontal and one vertical, shot into the sky!

After a loud bang, the light network disappeared.

"Still sneaking around!" Rody shouted, and the entire domain space suddenly shrank violently, forming cyclones in the air that squeezed and stirred each other. In the midst of this dense cyclone, there was indeed a faint groan. Rody raised his eyebrows and slashed with the scimitar in his hand.

I saw a rainbow-like half-moon slashing past, and amidst the whistling sound, a milky-white wall of air suddenly appeared in front of me - it was indeed a protective barrier created by light magic!

"You can't stop it!" Rody sneered, and the scimitar in his hand slashed across seven or eight times quickly. Several light blades whizzed past like lightning and hit the protective barrier hard almost at the same time. above!

The entire space was distorted again, and the barrier and the light blade disappeared at the same time. Rody's body trembled, his eyes showing shock: "How is that possible!"

"Of course it's possible." The voice suddenly appeared beside Rody, and then said quickly: "Because I am also a domain!"

Rody felt a cold palm on the back of his heart, and then a bone-chilling force rushed down.

He didn't even have time to hum, his body shook violently, and he flew out. Kikukawa Koichi in his hand was also grabbed by the opponent.

Although Rody was knocked away by the opponent's sneak attack, he had already regained his balance while he was still in mid-air. He knelt heavily on one knee and choked out a mouthful of blood!

Roddy was injured for the first time after breaking through the field!

A dazzling light suddenly burst out in his eyes, and the scimitar in his hand went out sideways again!

quick!

It can only be described in one word!

This ray of light didn't look dazzling, as if it seemed to be there or not, but almost in an instant, the entire space was locked by Rody's aura! The arc-shaped light flew out with a roar, and the other party suddenly groaned in pain!

At that moment, Rody finally saw the figure of his enemy! I saw a slender figure flashing in front of me in the distance. He was vaguely tall and slender, wearing an extremely ordinary white robe that was the hallmark of the temple. The white robe was obviously a bit old, but it still looked so luxurious and sacred when worn on him, with a strange majesty! Her long black hair was simply tied back with a ribbon...

But what impressed Roddy deeply was that face!

He wore a sterling silver mask on his face, covering his face above the nose. Only the mouth is exposed. The two lips were pursed slightly, showing a slight upward arc, making him look like he was always smiling.

In just such a moment, this man's shadow has been engraved in Rody's mind forever!

The man's face did not change, but a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Then Rody's light blade was suddenly shot away by him, and the other person's figure disappeared!

Rody stood up vigilantly, carefully expanded his territory, and after making sure there were no enemies around, he slowly walked over.

But on the ground where the man was standing just now, there seemed to be a string of bright red blood stains on the dust, and the blood had been mixed with the dust...

The mysterious strong man finally failed to get any benefits and was injured under Rody's knife!

The voice appeared again, but this time it was obviously very far away. I could only vaguely hear the voice saying intermittently: "A strong man in the field, if you want to get that thing, you might as well think about it carefully. You can't see the sky or the ground." , no one can be seen. This sentence... cough cough cough... "

Then the voice seemed to cough a few times and disappeared. It was obvious that the injury was not serious under Rody's hands.

Roddy was sure that the other party was gone, and finally couldn't hold on any longer. He staggered and almost fell down. At this moment, he felt a burning pain in his back, and a surly force was surging back and forth rapidly in his body. His chest was boiling, as if it was about to explode. Half of his body was cold, and the other half was hot.

He bit his lip hard, and the pain in his vagina made him reluctantly cheer up. But when I looked at Kikukawa Koichi who was lying on the ground, he was already dead!

Kikukawa Kouichi opened his eyes wide, which were already gray and lifeless.

Roddy sighed, and he released a trace of "hell fire" to burn away the traces, leaving no trace of dust.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth vigorously, but he used too much force just now, and another mouthful of blood spurted out. Rody simply sat down on the ground, smiled bitterly and said to himself: "This time, the situation is too great. I didn't even know who the other party was, yet I suffered such a serious injury... Hum, it seems that even a strong person in the field can't." It’s not really invincible…”

He simply went to the ground, put his head in his hands and looked up at the sky.

That guy seemed to be injured no less than himself... But I didn't expect that there was someone more powerful than the Holy Knight in the temple, so who was it

A name immediately emerged from Roddy's mind.

Prometheus! !

Hum hum… No sight of the sky, no ground, no people… What does this mean

Rody lay down for a while and felt a little better. He couldn't help but whisper something, and then he reluctantly supported himself and went to Kyoto.

When Rody rushed back to Kyoto, it was already getting dark.

After all, when he came out, he relied on his great strength and ran very far in a moment. But when he came back, he was seriously injured. He didn't dare to force himself to go, so he could only walk slowly... If he didn't force himself, he could still jump. After crossing the city wall, I'm afraid I won't even be able to enter Kyoto City.

Naturally, there is no need for the shogunate to go back. After so long, the matter must have been almost resolved. Rody randomly picked up a person on the street and asked Kikukawa Yukinari where he lived, but the other person just looked at him coldly and ignored him.

Rody was angry in his heart and put on a fierce look on his face. He once grabbed a person and the other person saw that he had a ferocious look on his face, so he spoke honestly.

It seems that among the dwarves, only those who are fierce and domineering can be respected - what a damn nation.

Kikukawa Yukinari's residence is far away from the shogunate. From a distance, it looks like an extremely elegant place. It seems to occupy a large area, and the green wall outside is surrounded by rows of green trees. But at this moment, groups of soldiers outside were walking back and forth, looking extremely busy.

Rody saw Nidis standing there waiting from a distance, and immediately strode over.

Nidis seemed to be a little anxious. She finally saw Roddy coming back, but she didn't expect him to look so embarrassed. Seeing him staggering, his body was obviously unstable, and his body was covered with some dust, and his face was pale. A little pale, with a faint trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Since Nidis met Rody, she has always seen him invincible. When has she ever seen him in such a mess? He ran over in panic, helped Roddy, and asked in surprise: "What's wrong with you?"

Rody sighed: "Let's talk after we go in first."

Nidis nodded and whispered: "In the shogunate today, after you left, the shogunate announced that Kikukawa Yukinari would be responsible for investigating this matter. This Kikukawa Yukinari has not been so important in his life, and the old general also The Kyoto City Guards were handed over to his command... Look at the troops coming and going, Kikukawa Yukinari has already led people to check Kikukawa Koichi's residence. "

Looking at Roddy's seemingly inquiring eyes, Nidis quickly said: "The old magician followed him, don't worry."

Then Nidis whispered: "They are probably coming back soon. Let me help you go in and rest first. The shogun will summon us later!" Looking at Rody's eyes, Nidis continued: "What are you doing today?" He blocked the sword, and the world must thank you in person for saving his life."

At this moment, Roddy has been supported by Nidis and walked into Kikukawa Yukinari's residence. The decoration here is indeed extremely elegant. It is obvious that the owner is a scholar who likes elegance. It's just that Rody is no longer interested in paying attention to these things at the moment.

He was almost pulled into a cleanly decorated room by Nidis, and immediately fell on the soft floor. After resting for a while, he smiled bitterly and said: "We suffered a big loss today. Someone got into a fight for no apparent reason, and even Kikukawa Koichi was not caught."

Nidis had already closed the door and made sure there was no one outside. Then she whispered: "What's going on? How did you come back so seriously injured? There are still people who can hurt you in the Yamata Kingdom." people?"

"Even if there is no Baqi Kingdom, there are always some in this world." Rody forced a smile and whispered: "If I guessed correctly, the person who hurt me is probably Prometheus!"

"Ah!" Nidis' color suddenly changed!

Rody waved his hand and said calmly: "Things are not that simple. If the person who attacked me just now is really Prometheus, then what I am worried about now is the safety of another person."

"who?"

Roddy's expression seemed a little strange and he said calmly: "A friend of mine... Paladin Fielding!"
