Chapter 499: Identity of the Third Knight
Xiuman once imagined what he could do if the legendary third knight personally led a team to surround and kill him.
It was a symbolic resistance for a period of time, so that Revo could communicate with his spirit;
Or use all the strength you can muster to fight the enemy to the death.
However, Shuman thought he had another solution.
He is a politician, and what politicians are best at is playing hypocritical and flattering.
If the goal is to delay time, fighting shouldn't be the only option.
Xiuman gave a look to Ruiwo next to him, then lifted the door curtain and walked out openly.
This cavalry unit quickly surrounded the Temple Knights' base.
A tall figure wearing bright silver armor and a helmet that covered his head tightly walked over with a thin woman.
As soon as she got close, the thin woman performed the etiquette of a royal noble towards Xiuman and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Young Lord Huiyao, if you want to visit the headquarters of the Kingdom Knights, there is no need to use such a sneaky method."
The voice was not loud and lacked the sweetness that is unique to a female voice. Instead, it sounded like a hissing venomous snake.
Xiuman observed the two men carefully.
The tall one meets the appearance requirements of a titled knight—much taller than an ordinary person, always wearing full armor, and never showing his face. He is probably the third knight.
But Xuman had no idea of the identity of this woman, who was about thirty years old.
He does look somewhat familiar.
Before Xiuman could speak, a hand gently touched him from behind.
Sensing this implicit signal, Shuman closed his mouth as he was about to speak, and stepped slightly to the side, revealing Nordman Glory behind him.
After arriving at the military camp, the Northern Archon of the Temple of Tyr took off the troublesome armor.
But in order to avoid being seen, she changed into male aristocratic clothing.
Nordman walked to a distance from the other party and stood still. After a long while, he squeezed out two words from between his teeth.
"Qina...long time no see..."
The thin woman raised her eyebrows with a teasing look on her face.
“Oh my, Sister Nordman!
Weren't you absent when we went to recruit the Knights Templar?
Why, are you still worried about these Paladins and come here on your own?"
Facing Qina's teasing, Nordman's face looked a little unhappy.
She glanced at the tall figure next to her, then at her sister of the same race, her expression extremely complicated.
"Qina, why are you in this army... and beside this gentleman?
Shouldn't you marry a great southern nobleman?"
"Second sister, you who stole your identity and ran away to the North to become a priest, please don't worry about my marriage.
As for why I am here..."
As Qina's tone changed, the tall knight next to her instantly drew out the two-handed warhammer behind his back.
This fierce weapon smashed directly into the ground, creating a deep hole in the ground that had been trampled compactly by the horses and knights.
"That's because I'm sending you, the traitors who betrayed Tyr, to face the judgment of the God of Justice!"
The surrounding temple knights had already gathered together, and now they all drew their weapons and took a defensive stance.
And Xiuman's whole body was burning with magical flames, and his feet were off the ground.
He knew that his plan to delay time by talking had failed.
At this moment, one can only hope that Revo’s prayers can be faster, so that the suffering girl far away in the elves can bring the news to the elven gods.
Compared to the Temple Knights' fear of a formidable enemy, the reaction of this team of cavalry could be described as - no reaction at all.
They simply formed a circle on their war horses and had no intention of drawing their weapons for a confrontation.
The tall third knight did not make any further movements after smashing down the heavy hammer. He just held the end of the two-handed hammer motionless.
"What are they waiting for..."
Terry, holding a one-handed knight sword, cautiously asked Shuman next to him.
At this time, the doubt in Xiuman's eyes became more and more intense.
According to common sense, a titled knight with powerful combat power could just rush over with weapons and easily take care of these people.
A group of high-level professionals could never be the opponent of this legendary being.
However, the Third Knight's reaction was truly bizarre.
It's not just the weird motionless posture he's in now, but also the fact that he obeys everything the woman next to him says.
Just like... a puppet...
Xiuman suddenly remembered what the old skeleton Rillifen said during the battle on the banks of the Miral River.
The true form of the titled knight is armor...
"Be careful! This woman is the Third Knight!"
Xuman suddenly shouted loudly, hoping that Nordman, who was closest to the opponent, would be alert.
But he was still one step late.
The unarmed high-ranking priest was grabbed by the neck and lifted up by the thin woman.
Qina's movements were as fast as a ghost, making it impossible for anyone to notice.
"Qi, Qina...what on earth are you..."
Nordman, whose throat was pinched, looked terrified.
She really couldn't imagine how her sister could possess such abnormal power.
In her memory, Qina was just a girl who liked gardening and reading, not a professional at all.
Not to mention having the strength to lift himself up with one hand.
Just as Nordman was about to fall into a coma due to lack of oxygen, River suddenly rushed out of the tent.
He nodded heavily at Xiuman, then took out a small mace and assumed a fighting stance.
The appearance of Ruiwo means that the Elf Courtyard has received the attack signal.
Xiuman's eyes flickered as he thought quickly about how to rescue Nordman and then charge out with this group of knights.
Most of the targets marked by [Clairvoyance] are on the west side, some distance away from the east side where you are.
It is obviously unrealistic to rely on the chaos caused by those spells to break out.
Do I really have to fight this Third Knight head-on...
Before he could think of a countermeasure, the light above his head suddenly illuminated the entire camp.
The ultra-long-range magic emitted from the Elf Courtyard has arrived here.
"No! No!"
Xiuman reacted immediately.
"The trajectories of these spells are not heading to the west!"
The thin Qina threw Nordman to the ground, took two steps towards Xiuman, and the words that came out of her mouth almost made Xiuman's soul burst into tears.
"How slow you are, Lord Huiyao.
The marks you made secretly have long been transferred by Her Royal Highness the Princess to the group of paladins behind you.
Master Xiuman..."
