Nok sat on the ground, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.
But he still held on to his spirit and unleashed several healing spells on himself.
Especially the Holy Healing Technique for treating internal injuries, he threw two of them in a row.
If he wasn't afraid of being weak and being exploited, he would have wanted to release a "Holy Light Salvation".
With the recovery of therapy,
Nok finally regained his composure.
The pain in the bones in my body finally eased.
He was afraid of his impulsiveness.
It seems that fighting with the holy spear is too easy.
It made him a little drifting.
He, a priest of the legal system, actually went to compete with others in swordsmanship.
Thanks to the fact that the Dark Knight is a dead man and has great sword skills,
He has no ability in life.
Otherwise, Nok felt that he would definitely die miserably.
What's rare is that the mage didn't make a sneak attack when he was fighting the Dark Knight.
Nok didn't think it was because the mage was fair.
That mage should be unable to make a move.
Otherwise, with his methods in the canyon fortress,
How could it not be a sneak attack on Nok?
Nok rested for a while, then stood up and looked around worriedly.
I don’t know how many students will survive.
He was busy fighting before,
He didn't pay attention to the students' situation.
It wasn't until the battle with the Dark Knight that I discovered that the idiot Kebi actually went to challenge Sophia.
Not to mention that today's Sophia is infinitely close to gold-level strength.
Even if Sophia only has the original bronze level,
Her combat experience is not comparable to that of Kirby.
Let alone Kebi, even if all the students are included,
No one can be a match for Bronze-level Sophia!
After all, adventurers who have seen blood are beyond the reach of students in ivory towers.
Nok was hesitating at this time. He wanted to go into Stone Village to see the situation in the village.
Or looking for the lost students?
Just when Nok hesitated,
A rapid sound of hoofbeats startled him.
Nok quickly made a defensive posture,
He looked towards the direction where the sound of horse hooves came from.
"Ta-la, tap-la, tap-la."
Captain Gill rushed towards Nok with hundreds of cavalry.
The rushing team kicked up billows of dust.
Call!
Before the man reached Nok, Gil pulled his mount to slow down.
When the horse reached Nok, he had already dismounted.
"Bishop Ryan, are you okay? Are you injured? Where is the enemy?"
Jill was very nervous. After all, the Lord had an explanation.
Before Bishop Lane goes to the Holy Court to report his duties, his safety must be protected.
After he was notified by Custer who had fled back to the city,
Angela Di didn't even have time to notify her, so she ran out with her people.
The task of informing Angeladi was given to Custer.
Fortunately, Bishop Lane seemed to be undressed and safe.
Thank you Holy Lord!
"Captain Gill, I'm fine. I just don't know if my students are fine."
"Don't worry, Bishop Lane, they have all fled back to the city, not a single one is missing.
On the contrary, there is no news about you and Mr. Kerby of the Kate family, which is worrying.
Fortunately, we are relieved that you are okay.
Where is Master Kebi? "
Nok recalled the scene during the battle. Kerby seemed to have run towards the quarry.
After all, Sophia stood at the entrance of the village, and Nok and the Dark Knight blocked the direction of the woods.
The magician stood on the way back to the city.
The only option Kebi could choose was the mine.
"Send someone to look for him at the mine. He seems to be injured.
Find the person and immediately send him back to the cathedral for treatment. "
"Yes!" Captain Gill respectfully accepted the order.
"You guys, go to the mine and look for Deacon Kate." (Note 1)
After ordering his men to do things, Gil looked at Nok and asked in a low voice:
"Bishop Ryan, could you please tell me more carefully, what happened here?"
Nok glanced at Gil and knew what he meant.
"It's hard to say now. I originally wanted to bring students to Stone Village for practical teaching today.
Because Kebi said that the villagers in Stone Village in their territory seemed to have a cough that was difficult to cure.
But when he arrived at the village with the students that night, he noticed something unusual and dangerous.
So I wanted to take the students and leave.
Unexpectedly, two dark magicians were killed.
I fought fiercely with the magician and couldn't care about the students, so I could only tell them to run away.
But the enemy is so powerful that I have no time to care about him.
In the end, I could only rely on my bluff to scare away the two dark mages.
After scaring them away, I sat on the ground and rested, and then you came.
So, you ask me what happened, I really don’t know.
Why don't you take a few people with you and follow me into the village to check it out?
It would be nice to have an explanation when I go back.
But I don't know if there is still any danger in the village.
You'd better tell your men that if we haven't come out of the village in an hour,
Let them return to the city immediately, notify Lord Angeladi, and then ask for help from the royal capital!
You must not send people here blindly. "
This is not because Nok is too careful;
But if Nok himself is trapped in the village, then the entire city of Reims and even the Champagne Territory,
No one has the ability to rescue them from the village.
This is not just a matter of strength;
There are also eyesight problems.
Sophia and the mage, both of them have obviously fallen into darkness.
Even if there are any traps, they are dark.
As the bishop of the Holy Church, Nok has accumulated church knowledge since childhood.
If Nok is trapped, who else in Lance City can be stronger than Nok?
Even if they are stronger than Nok, without light restraint, they are not even as good as Nok.
"Understood, I'll give the order right now."
Gil heard Nok's caution and immediately turned around to order his men.
Then, he personally named ten knights with good strength and followed him.
After meeting Nok, we walked towards the village together.
"You all come closer and I'll apply some buffing spells to you.
Then you protect me and must not stay away from me and enter the village together.
After entering the village, no matter what you find, you must report it to Captain Gill and me.
Unauthorized action is not allowed.
Otherwise, if something unexpected happens, don’t blame me for not warning you.
In addition, if you encounter danger, you must ask me to come closer and follow my command.
Although I am not good at combat command, when dealing with the fallen dark mage,
I believe I am the professional. Do you understand everything? "
"I understand!" the knights replied together, even Gil was no exception.
"Very good, now I'll add bUFF to you, and then enter the village."
After Nok cast a little attribute gain spell on everyone,
Another divine protection was given to everyone.
Only then, under the guard of ten knights, and Gil, stepped into the stone village.
However, as soon as they stepped into the village, they realized something was wrong.
"Where is this? This isn't Stone Village!"
"Damn it, are we in a teleportation trap?"
"No! Teleportation traps are almost lost! Only the black market can master the teleportation array!"
The knights looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and panicked.
"Quiet! What are you doing! Be alert! If there is any problem, wait until you check it out before making a conclusion!"
Gil yelled angrily, saying that these men were embarrassing him in front of the bishop.
Didn’t he suddenly fall into darkness? What’s all the fuss about!
"Illumination!"
Nok didn't care about the knights' reactions.
Suddenly, it is daytime outside and step into darkness. Anyone will be nervous and scared.
It was just instinct, and Nok himself was shocked.
When the lighting technique takes off and illuminates the surrounding environment,
Nok's face was full of weirdness.
"Mr. Bishop, what's wrong? Have you made a discovery?"
Gil looked at Nok's expression as if he had a toothache and asked carefully.
Nok looked at the familiar environment around him and felt like he had a toothache.
He nodded and said, "Don't worry, I've been to this place before. I'm familiar with it."
Then, Nok shouted loudly: "Everyone, don't move, pick up your weapons and prepare to fight!"
Let me go. Is this going to be a fight?
Some knights heard Nok's words about fighting before they could react.
They didn't even know where they were, and the bishop could see that they were about to fight.
As expected of someone who took the position of bishop at the age of twenty!
There is no way they can compare!
After receiving Nok's instructions, the knights immediately got into battle formation.
Knock reminded loudly: "No matter what happens, you just need to protect your position and teammates.
Don't take the initiative, follow my command and follow my footsteps!
I understand everything! "
"I understand!" the knights replied in unison.
"Okay! The battle begins! I launch an attack!"
Nok waved his hand, and balls of white flames appeared above everyone.
"Holy Flame, purify all these evil beings! Go!"
Nok waved his right hand, and the flames in the air flew around.
Bear!
The flames fell on the surrounding dead trees, igniting a raging fire.
The knights panicked, wondering why the bishop set fire to the tree!
Because they are in the woods now!
There are dead trees all around!
This is a dead forest!
Just when they wanted to stop Nok.
The dead tree on fire suddenly moved!
Squeak!
The dead tree sprouted mouths and eyes, and screamed urgently.
Then, in the horrified eyes of the knights.
The whole dry forest came alive!
Yes, this is the strange space that Nok encountered in Corel Village.
That dead forest with the King of Trees!
I just don’t know, if I face the Tree King again this time,
Who wins and who loses!
Roar!
Along with the commotion among the dead trees, a roar came from deep in the forest.
Afterwards, the dead trees became quiet, and a passage opened in front of Nok and the others.
Along with the sound of heavy footsteps "donglong, donglong" came.
The tree king appeared in front of everyone with anger.
"Roar!"
His mental power was shaken, and he rushed towards Nok and the others.
"Soothing spirit!"
Nok raised his hand to protect the knights.
He himself received the spiritual power of the Tree King.
"Human! Why are you here again! Get out!"
Nok was astonished as he analyzed the information contained in the tree king's spirit.
I thought I had translated it wrong.
Nok also used the method of using mental power learned from the fishmen.
Pass your words to the Tree King.
"You think we want to come, because we were sent in just like last time.
If you don't want us to stay here, then send us away! "
Nok was not polite. When dealing with foreigners, being direct was the best choice.
Because they don't have the complicated guts of humans.
"Don't even think about it! Get out of here!"
The tree king roared angrily.
But Nok was unhappy and said: "No! You are responsible for opening the door and sending us away.
Otherwise, I will set fire to all your descendants!
Don’t forget, you couldn’t do anything to me last time I was alone.
Now I have helpers and I am stronger.
How many descendants do you think you have enough for me to burn? "
After receiving Nok's threat, the tree king was very angry.
But it had to compromise.
There is no way, this human spell is too restraining them.
Not to mention he also knows how to set fire!
If it were an ordinary flame, the Tree King could still put it out.
But he felt those white flames just now,
The power inside made it feel scared.
It even felt that if the flame fell on it,
I'm afraid it will all be burned to death!
Therefore, the tree king was unwilling to give in, but had to compromise.
"I agree to open the door for you, please leave immediately. Don't touch my offspring again!"
"OK!"
One man, one tree, a deal was negotiated.
Nok clapped his hands with satisfaction and said to the others:
“I talked to the tree king, he sent us out, we will not harm his offspring.
But be careful, lest it pull any tricks.
These trees are afraid of fire. If they dare to cheat for a while, if you have fire, set it out to burn them. "
Nok said this openly and openly, and he was not afraid at all whether the Tree King would understand.
After hearing a few words from Nok, he negotiated terms with the Tree King.
All eleven people admired Jill.
Even if there were doubts in their hearts, they were wise enough not to ask them at this time.
Soon, with the help of the Tree King, the space barrier was opened.
Knock urged the eleven knights to go first, but he stopped.
Just kidding, Nok in the early days of Silver dared to face the entire Dead Tree Realm.
Not to mention Knock today.
If Nok hadn't wanted to figure something out,
I'm afraid he will pull out his gun and give the tree king a big mushroom now!
When everyone was gone, Nok looked at the Tree King,
Suddenly he smiled and said: "Brother Tree King, goodbye, I'll see you next time."
With that said, Nok quickly jumped into the space door.
Bang!
The space door exploded.
The tree king's roar echoed in the space:
"See you, uncle! I'll blow you up, you annoying human being!"
Nok, who escaped earlier, looked at the surviving knights around him.
Looking again at the deserted village in front of me,
He immediately asked: "Does anyone know if this is inside Stone Village?"
"I'm reporting to you, Lord Bishop, this is Stone Village. I came here with my family to buy stones.
I recognize the architectural pattern here. "
A knight stood up and told Nok the answer.
Nok thought thoughtfully. It seemed that he thought the dead tree world was an illusion.
Now it seems that it was not an illusion,
Instead, someone arranged a fake phantom array to confuse Nok.
But who is that person?
Why go to all this trouble?
He was fully capable of killing Nok at that time!
"Note 1: There was a mistake in the previous article. Kerby Kate should be called Butler Kate, not Butler Kerby."
