The eyes of the Paladins in front of them were filled with disbelief. They didn't understand what was happening.
Obviously, Calvis just closed and opened his eyes, and then he gained such powerful power.
Their experience was not enough to know what exactly happened, and they could only attribute it to the heretics sacrificing themselves to ghosts and gods in exchange for power.
The eyes of the leader, Hawkeye Mordekaiser, gradually became serious. He could feel that the power currently controlled by Calvis was no less than him.
His pupils became extremely sharp, which was the sequence ability he possessed.
The 199th ranked ability is the famous Eagle Condensation.
When this sequence of abilities is activated, his perception will become sharper, and he can easily understand the enemy's weaknesses and actions. When he breaks the opponent's weaknesses, he will cause incurable wounds.
The activation of the sequence ability means that this fifth-level powerhouse has to get serious.
Mordekaiser is not a paladin who abides by the code of knights. He takes action first and does not intend to wait for Ye Qiong to continue to gain strength.
Upon seeing this, the surrounding paladins immediately took up their positions and began hunting heretics.
Before Ye Qiong had time to feel the changes in the power within his body, a black sword had already struck first, attacking exactly at his heart.
His reaction was also extremely quick, and he swung his sword to intercept.
It's a pity that the long sword in his hand is a mediocre silver sword, which is no match for the black sword in Mordekaiser's hand.
Only a cracking sound was heard, and the silver sword in Ye Qiong's hand shattered.
Mordekaiser also pursued the victory, and there was a small dagger-like dagger hidden in his left hand. This time, the target he attacked was Ye Qiong's throat.
The paladin behind him was not idle either. He raised his musket and aimed it at Ye Qiong mercilessly.
With so many attacks, Ye Qiong could not avoid them, and he had no intention of retreating.
He smiled contemptuously at the knight captain in front of him, and grabbed the dagger with his right arm. His bright red ghost hand seemed to feel no pain at all, and easily crushed the dagger to pieces.
Even without the perception of his mind's eye, Ye Qiong knew that the paladin was pointing a musket at him.
With the help of Sky Eye Sky Monitor's ability, he could clearly see the positions of all the Paladins.
Facing the incoming muskets, he did not dodge at all. He stood straight on the spot and withstood the more than twenty attacks.
Normally, the bullets had passed through multiple fatal wounds on Ye Qiong's body, and a large amount of blood should have flowed out of his body.
But the strange thing is that there was no trace of blood flowing out of him, and there were only traces of bullet holes on his body.
Immediately afterwards, an unexpected scene happened. With a low roar, the bullet left in Ye Qiong's body was squeezed out.
Attacking the Holy Knight in front of him at a fast speed.
Because of the vision provided by the sky monitor, Ye Qiong completed precise strikes, and each bullet accurately landed on the paladin's head.
Only the most powerful Mordekaiser swung his sword in time to cut off the incoming bullets.
The screams coming from all directions distracted him. When he looked in the direction of Ye Qiong again, no one was there.
Seeing this scene, he also looked decisively in the direction of the city gate, looked at the back of the departing figure, and cursed secretly:
"Damned heresy."
Then he grew eagle wings on his back and chased in the direction of Ye Qiong.
Looking at all the mess in front of him, Bishop Abele remembered his identity as the bishop of the Holy Light Church and exclaimed insincerely:
"Oh my God, what the hell is going on?"
Then he quickly walked towards the paladin closest to him and helped him up. Although he knew that this paladin had already lost his breath, he still shook him a few times and said:
"Kid, wake up, wake up."
Then he looked at Mother Teresa and urged:
"Mother Teresa, come help quickly."
But his urging did not receive the slightest reply.
The blond woman wearing a nun's uniform still had her eyes fixed on the direction Ye Qiong left.
"Mother Teresa!"
Bishop Abele's voice became much more irritable, and he was obviously dissatisfied that the other party ignored him.
Looking over with her blue eyes, Mother Teresa's face was still expressionless. Just when Bishop Abele thought she was coming to help him, he didn't expect that she would turn around and walk towards the city gate.
"Mother Teresa, what are you going to do?"
Bishop Abere's tone became much more anxious. He felt that he had been abandoned. This woman must have seen Calvis' potential, so she turned around and left to find the fugitive.
"You promised me, you can't leave!"
He didn't understand the details of this woman, but he understood that the other party could give him everything he wanted. The status and sequence ability he had now were all given to him by the other party.
He absolutely cannot lose her.
Bishop Abele dropped the paladin he picked up to the ground without hesitation and hurriedly ran to Mother Teresa.
Seeing her looking at him, he was about to speak, but was frightened away by that cold gaze.
"Let's go back."
"Are you going to find Calvis?"
"Nothing to do with you."
Mother Teresa didn't say anything more and just walked silently towards the city gate.
This time, Bishop Abele no longer dared to pursue her. He understood that once this woman with a mysterious background wanted to do something, he would not be able to stop it with his own abilities.
Recalling Calvis's appearance when he left, the only thing he could do was grit his teeth and curse inwardly:
"Damned heresy."
Ye Qiong was running through the woods. Did he really think that he had done nothing while floating above St. Kaner City for hundreds of years?
When he had nothing to do, he had already firmly remembered everything around him in his mind.
Even if the Eye of the Sky comes, he can still say confidently in front of this guy who likes to peek:
"No one knows San Cana better than me."
But having said that, the knight captain seems to be a lot more troublesome than expected.
The name of Eagle Eye is truly well-deserved. Even if Ye Qiong escapes so fast, he can still follow closely behind.
Fortunately, it is sunset now, and it will be dark soon.
Then he can lure Mordekaiser to a place.
He continued to run towards the depths of the woods, occasionally using the ability of the Eye of the Sky to send out a few rays to interfere with Mordekaiser's flight.
Because he had multiple wounds on his body, he was greeted by many wild beasts.
However, after they felt the powerful aura coming from Ye Qiong, they immediately chose to leave.
There were only a few relatively powerful monsters peeking at him from behind.
Ye Qiong didn't care, and seemed to be running aimlessly in the woods. In fact, it was not the case. He had been heading towards an area in the northeast.
The monsters in this area are the means used by Ye Qiong to kill Mordekaiser.
The battle had dragged on for far too long, and Mordekaiser had not lost patience.
He understood that the fugitive below deserved such treatment.
He had seen the fate of the Eye of the Sky before. If he didn't pay attention, he was killed by Calvis.
What he has to do is very simple, that is, to put pressure on Ye Qiong and constantly consume Ye Qiong's endurance. When he is exhausted, he will kill him with one more blow.
Ye Qiong's body already had many wounds. Even though he had the ability to heal himself with the War Ghost's Sorrow, he was not much better.
He was out of breath from exhaustion after running for several seconds.
This was not a sign of weakness, but he was really tired.
Mordekaiser is a very patient hunter who rarely initiates attacks. What he seeks is the opportunity to kill with one strike.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Mordekaiser flew towards the low altitude, swung the black sword in his hand, and a sharp sword light struck behind Ye Qiong.
Under the power of Sky Monitor, Ye Qiong saw Mordekaiser's every move.
Although this attack was extremely fast, with Ye Qiong's reaction ability, he was still able to resist it, but he did not do so.
The attack was directly received from behind, but no screams were made.
Continuous battles and endless escapes are undoubtedly extremely difficult for a third-level paladin. It is normal for him not to react to attacks from behind.
Mordekaiser didn't doubt his presence, he just assumed that his prey was completely exhausted.
But he was not completely relieved. As a hunter, he understood better than anyone else that the prey's most violent counterattack was before it died.
Flying in mid-air, still maintaining a certain distance.
However, Mordekaiser, who focused all his attention on Ye Qiong, probably never expected that he would unintentionally follow Ye Qiong and break into the territory of a powerful monster.
Shadow Demon of the Forest.
This is the name of this area. In this area, everything that the shadow can do is its territory. This powerful monster noticed the invasion of two outsiders early on.
From beginning to end, it focused on Mordekaiser, who was following closely behind.
After all, there is a dying third level and a powerful fifth level. It is obvious which one is more threatening.
The reason why he didn't take action immediately was simply to wait for an opportunity to kill with one strike.
Right now, this fifth-level powerhouse has focused all his attention on the third-level paladin, and now is the best opportunity.
The Shadow Demon of the Forest struck so decisively that the shadows on the ground began to squirm and turned into spikes, attacking Mordekaiser at a speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye.
Mordekaiser, who focused all his attention on Ye Qiong, did not immediately notice the danger coming. When he saw the thorn of shadow, it was already too late.
Swinging the black sword in his hand, the silver-white sword was about to cut off the thorn of shadow.
Seeing this scene, Ye Qiong silently shook his head. In the hundreds of years he had been floating above Shengkan City, he had seen the hunting process of the Shadow Demon of the Forest hundreds of times.
This sword light cannot cut off the thorn of shadow.
The attacks issued by the shadow will not be intercepted by physical attacks.
Only by killing the Shadow Demon of the Forest can the incoming Shadow Thorn be stopped.
If you want to kill the Shadow Demon of the Forest, you need to find its true body.
This may be extremely difficult for others, but for Ye Qiong, it couldn't be easier.
Just by turning on his Death Eye and taking a glance, he immediately saw an extremely conspicuous line of death.
However, he did not take action to cut it off. After all, at this stage, he still needed the Shadow Demon of the Forest to help him stop Mordekaiser.
The moment the conflict broke out between the two, he immediately ran towards the northwest.
Seeing this scene, the Shadow Demon of the Forest did not intend to let Ye Qiong go. It did not intend to let go of any of the intruders who entered its territory this time.
Just as the thorns of shadow were about to condense on the ground, they were interrupted by a golden ray.
It stared at the direction of the ray, feeling somewhat panicked.
It turned out to be the place where its body was located.
Is it a coincidence, or does it have special means?
When it set its sights on Ye Qiong again, it encountered a pair of blue-red magic eyes.
For some reason, when it saw these magic eyes, it felt cold all over, as if these eyes had seen through everything about itself.
After just a moment's hesitation, the third-level paladin disappeared into the shadows.
If it wanted to chase, it could definitely catch up, but it didn't dare.
Its actual combat power is not very strong. When fighting against others, it has an information gap.
If the other party can detect the location of his own body, it would be unwise to rashly become an enemy.
Besides, the current fifth-level paladin is not an easy being to deal with.
He returned his attention to Mordekaiser and did not choose to pursue him.
While Ye Qiong was running, he had been observing the actions of the Shadow Demon in the Forest with the help of the Sky Monitor.
Only after confirming that the other party did not pursue his thoughts did he feel relieved.
It is true that he is the natural enemy of the Shadow Demon of the Forest, but right now he is covered in injuries. He is able to sustain himself until now only because of his extraordinary willpower. He has no extra energy to deal with the Shadow Demon of the Forest.
Without the threat of Mordekaiser, Ye Qiong's pace slowed down a lot, but he did not stop immediately.
Because now he is still in the territory of the Shadow Demon of the Forest.
If he waits for this monster to free his hands, he will definitely notice that his situation is not good, and he will definitely take advantage of it later.
This place is not safe for him at all.
His goal was extremely clear, and he ran all the way to the northwest. He knew that there was a powerful existence there that could provide him with a temporary resting place.
It can only be said that the hundreds of years he spent floating above Saint Kaner City were not in vain.
At least he could remember clearly some of the things around him.
Large amounts of blood continued to drip to the ground, and his wounds were getting worse. He forced himself to move his legs and ran towards the front.
On the verge of death, he only wanted to do one thing.
As long as he reaches that place, as long as he goes there, he has a chance of survival.
It was obviously only a thousand meters away, but it seemed extremely long at the moment. (End of chapter)
