The Man Standing on Top of the Food Chain

Chapter 312: Prelude (2)

Views:

There are still two days left before Li Anping ascends the throne.

In the Western Continent, in the Canonized Province of Codex, somewhere in an underground cave.

Loud chants resounded throughout the underground space, and on the huge square were thousands of men wearing metal power armor. They are the Templars of the Order of Truth.

At this moment, they knelt on one knee at the same time, clasped their hands in front of their chests, and prayed quietly towards the icon in the middle of the square. Thousands of templar knights spoke in unison, matching the hymns in the space, giving people a strange feeling. A sense of holiness.

"What am I waiting for!"

"Swords and short spears!"

"Why are we waiting!"

"Slay all the evil spirits in the dark!"

"I'm waiting for you!"

"I implore the Lord's mercy, may we go to hell together and wipe out all human evils!"

Accompanied by thousands of people praying in unison, three tall men slowly walked towards the icon in the center. They wore black cloaks that covered their entire bodies.

But even so, with every step of their footsteps, they could still hear the rattling sound of metal clashing. These three are the grand master and deputy commander of the Knights Templar.

In the underground cave at this moment, except for the knights who were led by the deputy head Klein and went to Xindongyang but were completely wiped out, all 4454 Templars of the Order of Truth had arrived.

With prayer after prayer, the atmosphere at the scene became more and more frenzied. Under the illumination of the lights, the shadows under the feet of the Templars danced wildly like demons.

The three men shrouded in cloaks finally walked under the icon.

The leader gently lifted the cloak covering his head, revealing his platinum hair. It was a very rare hair color, and when it fell in this dark cave, it even gave off faint traces of fluorescence, making the man look full of sacredness.

Under the prayers of the 4,454 Templars around him, he slowly knelt down on one knee and stretched out his hands under the cloak. Those are a pair of very clean and strong hands, as if they do not touch a little bit of dust from the world.

But now, this pair of white hands were lightly pressing on the ground. Like a holy angel came to the world.

The moment his hands touched the ground, nine strands of gray energy spewed out from the ground. Nine Dao Nian Qi is like nine gates leading to the endless underground world, directly opening nine tunnels on the ground that can only allow one person to pass through.

In the superpower sequence, the strongest known ability of the external system, the kingdom of the underworld—is activated at this moment.

When this ability was activated, the voices of prayers all around became louder and louder, as if the holy war was about to begin, every templar's face showed bursts of fanatical smiles.

"We pray for the blessings of Heaven!"

"Until the end of the earth, everything belongs to the Lord!"

"We are the God of the Earth, the Punisher!"

"With the wrath of heaven, burn all the sins of the world!"

In the nine dark passages, something seemed to rise up, and with the prayers of the knights, more thought energy was thrown into the passages from the man's body.

A terrifying howling sound came from the depths of the passage, and a pitch-black hand stretched out from the passage.

The surface of the entire passage seemed to be covered with an invisible barrier, and this palm squeezed against the thin black barrier and stretched out.

First the hands, then the arms, shoulders, and even the head.

The one who wanted to get out of the tunnel was actually a person

It's just that no matter how hard the man tried, the black film would never break, like a firm layer of plastic wrap, tightly wrapping the figure's surface, making him look like a pitch-black ghost, angrily trying to get out of hell. climb out.

In the situation before him, the man who activated the ability user suddenly gave a low shout, and more thoughts rushed out from the passage. And as more thought energy rushed out, the black ghost seemed to be boosted, and rushed upwards.

There was only a thud, as if the barrier of the world was broken, the black film burst and the figure under the film came out of the passage in an instant.

Then there were eight more rings in a row, and a total of nine people came out of the passage.

They were naked from top to bottom, and their skin was all a strange gray color, especially their eyes, which had no pupils at all, and were completely white.

The man who climbed out first stood up slowly. He scratched his head and murmured, "Where is this place? I remember I was with Li Anping..."

"You are already dead."

The man who got up had a look of disbelief. He looked at the golden-haired knight and said angrily, "What are you talking about? Who are you? Where is this place? Do you know that I am..."

"The fifth-level ability user of Daxia Longque, Song Bang." The knight smiled: "My name is Paladin, the Grand Master of the Knights Templar. Song Bang, you are dead, but I brought you into the world again .

Although the time to stay in time is only three days, you have a chance to get revenge. "

But Song Bang didn't pay attention to him, but stared blankly at his gray body, and said to himself in disbelief: "I'm dead... I'm actually dead?"

And the other eight people were all attracted by the conversation between the two.

Seeing them all looking over, Paladin smiled and said, "Everyone, you all remember how you died, right?"

"Song Bang."

"Thunder Emperor."

"Blood demon."

"Zhu Rong."

"Pluto."

"The Qilin King."

"Samael."

"And Krahn." With Paladin's roll call, the people in front of him looked over one by one: "You all died at the hands of Li Anping more or less. But now I wake you up from hell, This is a chance for you to take revenge."

The Qilin King snorted coldly, and said rebelliously, "What if I say no?"

Paladin shook his head and snapped his fingers lightly.

The Qilin King's face immediately changed drastically, and he saw a black substance emerging from the ground, like layers of mud, moving upwards along the Qilin King's legs, gradually wrapping him completely, and finally completely enveloping him. It was dragged back into the underground passage and disappeared completely.

Paladin said coldly: "Then, is there anyone who disagrees?"

Except for Klein's respectful face, the remaining eight people had different expressions, but no one objected.

Then the Templars presented clothes and armor to the eight fifth-level ability users. But with their gray complexions and pure white eyes, they looked more like zombies than people.

Then each of them sent a piece of information to them, which recorded some things that happened after their death, as well as a rough estimate of Li Anping's current strength.

Among them, Song Bang reacted the most, his face kept changing, and he shouted: "How is it possible? That bastard Li Anping, how could he... how could..."

As for Lei Di, the blood demon's reaction was also unsightly. They never expected that after they died, the world would undergo such a big change, and Li Anping's strength would rise even more rapidly, reaching an unbelievable situation.

In contrast, the other ability users who died later were not so surprised. After all, when he killed them, Li Anping's fighting power was already astonishing. However, Daxia's development in the past year, as well as Li Anping's strength in New Dongyang, are still enough to shock them.

Pluto said coldly: "Counting the eight dead people here, plus the three of you, there are eleven fifth-level ability users in total. But even so, they may not be able to deal with the current Li Anping."

Behind Paladin, a man also lifted his cloak. This middle-aged man with silver hair had a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything.

He is one of the three deputy commanders of the Knights Templar, the Eye of God, Walford.

"Exactly so, with the combat power of everyone present, it may not be possible to win against the current Li Anping. Moreover, as time goes by, his strength is getting stronger and stronger, and there is not much time left for us.

That's why we must hurry up, the sooner we eliminate it, the lower the danger, and this time it's not just our family that besieged Li Anping. "

After hearing these words, Pluto and the others had different expressions. And Walford didn't care, he suddenly turned his head and looked into the crowd: "There."

Accompanied by Walford's words, Tang Weihan, who was disguised in the crowd, felt his heart palpitate, and felt that his heartbeat seemed to be still at this moment.

In front of him, there were eleven level five ability users.

Just when he was lucky, Walford walked towards him directly.

Without doubt or pause, he walked straight to Tang Weihan.

Behind him, the other ten level 5 ability users looked over at the same time, feeling the eyes of these monsters, Tang Weihan's heart sank.
