The sun poured its scorching rays from within the clouds onto the treetops of the Aleister Border Forest.
The extremely strong sunlight in midsummer cannot even be completely blocked by the extremely dense black oak forest, and it successfully illuminates the bottom layer of the oak forest with an average tree height of more than ten meters.
Blood was scattered on the tree trunk, leaving behind horrific evidence of crime.
The dead bodies were sparsely distributed in the grass and at the bottom of tree trunks, and their clothes were in tatters.
There was no decent armor on the corpse. Most of them were hung with a few ropes and tied with wood chips on the outside of the linen clothes as the simplest defense measure.
Occasionally, some have one or two pieces of decent iron armor, which can really block some fatal attacks.
But now that it has become a corpse, these things naturally do not play their intended role.
Most of the corpses had their necks wiped off with a sword, and a few had their heads split open more brutally.
No one can tell who is who, red and white, and the instigator of all this was two people who were surrounded by a group of ferocious-looking bandits in the middle of the forest.
An old knight wearing full knight armor, his face under the helmet was serious and resolute, full of traces of wind and frost.
The gray hair and beard are like the silver hair of an old wolf, full of spirit and majesty.
At this time, he was following the cover of the knight attendants around him, and inserted the long sword with a sharp and cold light into the chest of a thief who was trying to sneak attack from behind...
Blood spurted out, screams were heard, and then he lost his voice due to exhaustion.
As for the knight's attendant, his upper body was naked, and his rock-tough muscles were covered with large and small scars.
The left hand is holding a shield, and the right hand is holding a short ax, ready to go. The smelly blood dripping from the ax also shows whose hand the previous more tragic corpses came from.
The knight's squire with black hair and black eyes, and the knight with silver hair and blue eyes, are not an ordinary pairing.
But it seems not that important compared to traveling to this different world.
The knight's attendant is called Wang Yu. If you think about it, it has been more than a year since he traveled through time.
I still remember when I first arrived, when I opened my eyes, I was lying on my back in a forest that was unimaginably lush.
The strange world confused Wang Yu, and the first surprise to welcome him to the new world was a hungry wild wolf.
When Wang Yu got up and was about to see what was going on, the wild wolf roared and pounced on him.
Wang Yu, who was thrown to the ground, desperately held the wolf's mouth to prevent it from attacking his fragile neck.
The two fighting men were in a stalemate for a long time, and the final outcome was that before Wang Yu, who tried his best, was bitten through the throat by the wolf, the passing old knight Leonard killed the wild wolf with a sword.
But by that time, Wang Yu was already covered in blood, and his palms and arms had huge cracks and holes deep enough to show the bones.
The old knight thought that the massive bleeding would soon kill the unfortunate fellow.
However, as a kind-hearted wandering knight, Leonard still bandaged up the strange black-haired boy and put him on the horse. As for what happened after that, he would just leave it to fate.
Miraculously, despite massive blood loss and inevitable wound infection, Wang Yu survived in the end.
The old knight Leonard was also surprised by Wang Yu's tenacious vitality, and casually accepted him as a knight's attendant, living a traveling life with him.
When he first came to this world, Wang Yu didn't even know the language of another world.
When he tried to communicate with Leonard in Chinese, Leonard looked at him as if he were facing a savage on the snowy field.
Fortunately, Wang Yu's appearance looks pretty good, at least he doesn't look like a disgusting thing like a troll or a goblin.
After Leonard realized that Wang Yu's language was different from his own, he patiently taught Wang Yu language and writing.
Wang Yu has never been a person with high IQ or learning ability. Learning is very difficult, especially when there is a language barrier.
Fortunately, Wang Yu's endurance and will are his most extraordinary qualities. After eight months of study, he was finally able to use Professor Leonard's lingua franca to communicate smoothly with others.
Wang Yu and Leonard have been adventuring together for a long time so far.
Before Wang Yu traveled through time, he was an ordinary man in his twenties, not handsome.
On a scale of 100, if the most common passerby scored 50, Wang Yu would only score 55, which is the level of a normal person.
The IQ is not beyond ordinary people. If you take the college entrance examination or something, you can get average scores.
But his physique and willpower are pretty good. He was already in his twenties, but after traveling through time, he found that his body had returned to that of a 17-year-old.
Many dark diseases caused by work and study seem to have disappeared, and some myopia is no longer a problem.
And this was also the reason why he did not die despite being extremely seriously injured for the first time.
His body seemed to be absorbing some elements of this new world.
And those ingredients make up for the "extraordinary" ingredients related to this world that this body lacks, so Wang Yu's physical fitness is actually constantly improving.
Compared with the normal physical fitness in the previous life, the average level of physical fitness in this world is much higher, so Wang Yu is much weaker in comparison.
And this kind of physical activity that spontaneously optimizes towards the local average physical fitness also makes Wang Yu's cell activity very good, and his metabolism speed reaches a somewhat exaggerated level.
At least until his body stopped optimizing, his self-healing ability was very strong. It was this self-healing ability that allowed Wang Yu to survive the fatal trauma.
This adaptation not only brings strong self-healing ability, but also doubles the effect of Wang Yu's knight training.
In just over a year, Wang Yu's physical fitness has become quite good.
If the limit attributes of the human body on earth are 1 and the attributes of a normal person are 0.5, then Wang Yu's current attributes are about 0.8.
He calls this body's adaptive period the "bonus period", and he estimates that this spontaneous body strengthening should take more than a year.
Although he is a wandering knight, his job is very down-to-earth. He can capture wild beasts, hunt down fugitives, and protect caravans. He does many jobs.
He knows a little bit about everything, and his ability to survive in the wilderness is second to none.
Wang Yu once asked Leonard, a high-level trainee knight who was very powerful in this area, why he wanted to be a wandering knight. The old knight just shook his head and had no intention of answering.
Because he has a very good self-healing ability, in Wang Yu's opinion, injury is not too serious.
Spontaneously acting as Leonard's shield, blocking enemy attacks during battle to create a safe environment and convenience for Leonard to kill enemies.
The cooperation between the two has become very tacit over time. Compared with the squire and the knight, they are even a bit like comrades-in-arms.
After more than a year of experience, Wang Yu and veteran knight Leonard have taken on a lot of work and have plenty of experience.
This time, I accepted a commission to help the village clear out thieves. Unexpectedly, when they met the village client, Wang Yu and Leonard were greeted by a joint attack by bandits and villagers.
There is nothing to think about and they work together. The villagers issue commissions to attract others, while the thieves gang is responsible for killing people.
I don’t know how much the property is divided into, but the villagers who posted the fake tasks probably made a lot of money.
Thinking of this, the old knight was itching with hatred. He was kind and lawful, and he hated this kind of behavior that deceived those who accepted the mission.
He once again thrust the long sword in his hand into the neck of a charging robber wearing tattered armor, turned back and drew the sword, and sprayed out a large amount of blood mist from the neck of the fallen corpse.
The old knight wiped the sweat and blood off his face with the back of his hand, and solemnly and quietly informed his attendant Wang Yu.
"Prepare to break out...then let the guild deal with them."
Nodding silently, Wang Yu tightened his ax in his hand and his steps suddenly quickened.
A shield attack caught off guard and knocked over a bandit in front, and then rushed towards the outer circle where the village bandits and bandits were relatively sparse.
Wang Yu was responsible for opening the way, and the old knight was responsible for killing, slashing with long swords quickly.
The strength of a senior trainee knight is close to twice the physical limit of a normal human being. When facing a mob whose average quality is no different from that of a healthy ordinary person, his fierce power is fully displayed.
Under the premise of causing as much damage as possible to open the exit, the harvest started at high speed almost as soon as Wang Yu suddenly attacked.
Following Wang Yu's sprint, the old knight's sword flew in the air. Every time he suddenly applied force to accelerate, a silver track flashed through the air.
Then, someone would cover his throat and fall down with a "ho ho" sound.
"After all, it's just a mob. It's still too difficult to intercept Knight Leonard." Wang Yu thought to himself as he split the chest of the enemy in the way with his axe.
After more than a year of experience, Wang Yu realized that Leonard was very powerful in this area.
Although he does not have such high physical fitness, the experience and skills accumulated over the years almost ensure that the old knight will basically not have any problems due to lack of strength in the mission.
Therefore, seeing that these bandits who colluded with the villagers were so miserable and could not resist Leonard's forced breakout, Wang Yu also felt a little relaxed and that it was indeed the case.
Extraordinariness is not uncommon in this world, but it is also limited to those big places, royal capitals and battlefields.
Some Don Quixote-like Leonard is not that arrogant, but more of a righteous heart, doing chivalry and changing some things with his own power.
After all, none of the drunkards in the tavern would say that Leonard was missing.
Therefore, the place where Leonard wandered was also a small place. I heard that he actually had an estate near the royal capital, but for some reason he chose to abandon it and then wandered out.
I also heard this news while chatting with acquaintances in the pub. However, at that time, Wang Yu had not yet learned the language proficiently, and he could basically listen to everything. To communicate smoothly with others, he could only talk to each other.
He himself is not a person who likes to inquire about other people's secrets, so he just listened to it for fun.
Generally speaking, extraordinary powers are not common in the place where they ventured together. Formal knights are basically not seen. High-level trainee knights like Leonard are also rare. Mages and the like have not been seen in more than a year. Pass.
Therefore, taking risks is not particularly dangerous for Wang Yu and Leonard.
As long as they are careful, the sharp sword and strong shield in their hands are enough to ensure their safety.
As the two men advanced, the density of the surrounding villagers and bandits surrounding the two men became increasingly dense.
We will soon break out of the siege. As long as we can escape, what will greet these guys is the guild's siege.
The old knight's long sword fell again, and an unlucky guy became the ghost under his sword.
"Poof!" The long sword was pulled out from the corpse's chest by the old knight. The blade of the sword had been soaked in blood red from the blood of an unknown number of people.
"Huh..." He took two big breaths. Sweat had soaked the armor, and the falling sweat beads rolled down from the bottom of the leg armor.
He was getting old after all, and the old knight had begun to feel tired.
The constant waving of the sword and the running in heavy armor all consumed Leonard's physical strength, which had begun to decline due to age.
"Huh..." Take a deep breath again, the soreness and numbness in your arms is so obvious. If you were ten years younger, how could you feel so incompetent now?
Even when I pulled out the long sword from the enemy's chest, I had the illusion that it was difficult to do. Although it was just an illusion, I had to accept it.
But fortunately, this time is over, and I may have to look at that kid again in the future.
With a smile that was about to end, Leonard sheathed his sword and continued to follow the pace of the attendant who opened the way for him.
There seemed to be no enemies ahead, and the forest was no longer dense.
The enemies behind them also seemed to realize that it was difficult to stop them, shouting unknown words loudly, and immediately, no one could stop them as they rushed out of the forest.
But at this moment, a skinny old man in black robes suddenly jumped down from a tree with a crazy expression.
A mage in black robe appeared at the junction of the forest and the outside world in front of the old knight and Wang Yu, blocking the way.
Wang Yu couldn't understand what happened for a while, but the experienced old knight's pupils shrank suddenly and his expression changed drastically.
The old knight pulled Wang Yu's collar and wanted to change lanes, but the sudden fatigue accumulated all the way broke out on the old knight's already somewhat old body.
His movements were a beat slower than usual. The moment he saw the exit, the old knight undeniably relaxed, and that relaxation also brought fatal sluggishness.
The man in black robe had been waiting for a long time, and he lurked on a tree directly in front of Wang Yu and Leonard's way of breaking out. Strange syllables sounded in his mouth, and the magic power gathered at high speed began to surround his palm.
A faint light flashed, and the third-ring spell "Advanced Mind Explosion!"
A group of ripples spread out quickly, like translucent water waves conducted in the air, and enveloped the old knight and Wang Yu in it. In an instant, a strong mental shock exploded into their minds.
Almost immediately, the old knight stumbled uncontrollably and fell to the ground.
Everything in front of him seemed to be frosted, and the severe pain, which was scarlet and stained with blood, destroyed his sanity, which almost made a trainee knight lose all his resistance.
After Wang Yu was hit by the sweep, there was no reaction at all. The fluctuations entered his brain, but disappeared without a trace like a mud cow entering the sea.
Just as he was about to turn around and pull the old knight down, he saw a figure leaping down from another tree, the sword in his hand shining with cold light, and his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty light.
The old knight is under the tree, and the target of this sudden figure is the old knight.
The old knight was indeed a skilled warrior who had experienced hundreds of battles, and the pain caused by the third-ring spell did not completely make him lose his ability to resist.
The old knight who was kneeling on the ground suddenly turned over, his kneeling body facing up, with a ferocious face, and his teeth bit into his lip until blood oozed, using physical pain to fight against the mental torture.
He raised his hands with all his strength to resist the sword of the jumping figure.
But the strength of this jumping guy is not weaker than that of the old knight.
In other words, after experiencing a series of running, killing, and even suffering a mental blow, the old knight's strength level inevitably dropped by nearly half.
At this moment, the strength of the sneak attack guy had surpassed that of the old knight. It seemed like a stalemate between life and death, but in fact it was extremely fast. After all, the old knight's hands could not withstand the huge force of the sneak attack man.
The sword inserted into the gap in the helmet and penetrated the old knight's throat.
Blood spurted out from inside, smearing a large area of dazzling blood red on the armor and the ground, and the old but powerful hands hung down feebly.
Almost instantly, the figure that suddenly jumped down killed the struggling old knight.
Wang Yu could see that the person who made the sneak attack was not as strong as the old knight, otherwise he would not have chosen to sneak attack, but with the cooperation of the spell caster, he almost irresistibly killed the old knight.
After more than a year of getting along, Leonard gave Wang Yu the impression that he was an experienced and strong man who knew a little bit about everything and was good at everything.
But this man, who was far more powerful than Wang Yu, had his strength greatly reduced by the caster's spell.
Although his experience and willpower allowed him to fight to the death, he was still suppressed and killed by another sneak attacker.
Although the desperate situation at this time almost makes everyone despair.
A mage, damn it, who can tell Wang Yu how there could be a mage in a small border place where trainee knights are rare.
Or is it the kind of mage who can emit such power that the strength of high-level trainee knights is greatly suppressed and almost loses its ability to counteract it? !
Wang Yu seems to have fallen into a desperate situation, but Wang Yu's will is the most extraordinary thing about him.
Nothing can shake his will, which is why mind blast is ineffective against him...
Desperate situations cannot make him fall into despair. He is not afraid of death, or in other words, he does not mind death.
The sense of fear has been basically insulated from him a long time ago, but the current situation is that he cannot die so early. At least he must kill all these scum before meeting the God of this world.
"What should I do... I can't beat him." The level of this mage is not low, and the guy who killed Leonard is definitely a trainee knight. "
"How can I, a middle-level knight servant, fight... If I fight for my life, I will definitely die, so I can only hope in their greed."
Wang Yu's mind was electrified and he thought for a long time, but the reality only passed for less than a second.
A strategy that seemed to leave his fate to luck and other people's decisions appeared in Wang Yu's mind, but this seemed to be the only feasible option!
The next moment after the old knight was killed by a sneak attack, seemingly unaffected, Wang Yu froze in the same position as before, and then fell straight face down.
The bridge of his nose hit a stone, making a cracking sound.
Blood continued to flow from the side of Wang Yu who landed on his face, and it was extremely scarlet.
The shield was still hanging on his hand, and the short ax flew away due to the weakness of his hand.
"Tch, I thought this kid had some kind of defensive magic weapon."
The mage came with mockery from a distance, his gloomy and ugly face filled with mockery and greed.
But now it seems that Wang Yu was directly knocked into coma by the psychic blast, so it seems that he is standing still and unaffected, rather than having something valuable, and there is a hint of disappointment in his tone.
"Use your own brain. What powerful characters can there be in this place? Who else can there be except you, a useless spiritual mage who specializes in psychic attacks?"
"Magic weapon, just go and have your dream. And this kid...ah? I've killed so many people, is it too easy for you to let you die like this?"
The man who killed the old knight laughed at the mage's whims, and the conversation turned to Wang Yu.
"Bang!" He kicked Wang Yu in the stomach, who was lying on the ground. The sound of bones breaking could be heard with such force.
Seeing Wang Yu, whose face was already covered in blood, vomiting out another mouthful of blood while unconscious, he nodded as if to calm down and showed a ferocious and dangerous smile.
"Take him back, give him a little treatment, and let him play death battle with all the dogs in the village tomorrow. I don't want him to die with intact flesh on his bones."
"This old guy's knight armor is quite good. How can a knight come from such a rich place to come to this small place? Ha, you brought me money. Although many people died, let's have a good drink tonight!"
He waved his hand and called for the robbers who cheered at his words to come over and take Wang Yu back. The robbers walked past the corpses of their own people, talking and laughing, without paying any attention to those who died.
Two robbers wearing shabby clothes and thin bodies held Wang Yu up.
While they were talking about what they could drink and eat tonight, they complained about Wang Yu's body that didn't look very strong but was solid and heavy.
What they didn't notice was that Wang Yu, who was lifted up, opened his closed eyes slightly and opened his lips, letting blood that might cause suffocation or coughing drop by drop leak out from his mouth.
