Zora City.
This was a medium-sized city with a population of fifty thousand. It mainly traded the fish from Lake Kascara and transported them to other parts of the Zambiz Empire through the convenient waterways.
Therefore, when Grim arrived at the trade route leading to Zola City, he found that almost all the people coming and going here were loaded wagons full of fish.
In order to better conceal himself, Grim used Witchcraft to alter his appearance.
The eye-catching wizard robes and equipment were now hidden. He was now wearing a simple set of leather armor and trousers, a two-handed sword on his back, and a grey traveller's cloak. He looked like an adventurer who was on the move.
His appearance had also changed slightly. The eye-catching dark red hair and black pupils had disappeared. He looked no different from the citizens of the empire.
Grimm stopped a caravan on the road and paid two imperial silver coins to become a member of the caravan. He and the coachman, Old Tom, squeezed into a carriage full of fresh fish and slowly headed for Zora City in the distance.
The closer they got to Zora City, the more caravans and pedestrians there were on the trade route.
Amidst the heavy traffic, the merchants and coachmen who passed by each other kept shouting and greeting each other, looking very friendly and friendly.
However, when they were less than ten miles away from Zora City, the thunderous sound of horse hooves came from the front.
The carriages and pedestrians on the trade route all moved to the side of the road, allowing a group of knights in silver armour to charge past them on their tall horses, kicking up a cloud of dust behind them.
Although the caravan was a little panicked because of the knights in silver armour, no one complained when they saw the knights passing by. Instead, when the knights disappeared, the caravan returned to the trade route. The merchants and coachmen began to discuss the reason why the knights were in such a hurry.
"It must be because of the strange things that happened at Lake Cascara …" Old Tom muttered as he waved his whip, "Something terrible must have happened there. The paladins will definitely investigate it!"
"The strange things at Lake Kascara?" Grim asked doubtfully.
"You don't know? Look at you. Didn't you just come back from Lake Kascara? Did … did you not see the terrifying flint that fell from the sky yesterday? "Old Tom looked incredulous.
"Oh, you're talking about that flint! It's not that strange, so there's no need to make a fuss, "Grim replied with a relaxed expression.
"You're an adventurer, so you've seen a lot of things. But this is the first time I've seen such a terrifying scene in Zora City in thirty years. You may not have seen it with your own eyes, but after the flint fell, half of the lake boiled. The dead fish and shrimps that floated on the surface of the water were so dense that it looked terrifying … "Old Tom was obviously a rather talkative person. Once he started talking about yesterday's strange event, he would not stop talking. It was as if he was going to spill everything he knew.
While Grim was chatting with Old Tom, his thoughts drifted to the group of Holy Knights that had just galloped past. There were six Grade 1 Black Iron Knights, but not even a Grade 2 Silver Knight. This made Grim lower his expectation about the Holy Light Chapel in Zora City.
If the Holy Light Chapel in Zola City was big enough, Grim wouldn't mind doing a big job here. However, if the Holy Light Chapel was too small, it would not be worth exposing his identity and whereabouts.
… …
Natagu was in a terrible mood at this moment!
Although he had been warned many times by the lord that this young fire wizard was very hard to deal with, he was still very confident about this trip. Although it was three against one, Natagu was still very confident about this trip.
However, his idea of hunting happily didn't last for more than half a day before the cruel reality in front of him crushed him.
That bastard escaped in such an ostentatious and arrogant way. Obviously, he was challenging Natagu's patience.
However, just when he was about to chase after the young fire wizard without caring about anything else, a short SOS message came through the air and made Natagu calm down.
The message was sent by the mechanical witch, Katy, who had left alone. The message was short and only contained two words: "Save me." After the message was sent, when Natagu and the other two tried to contact her again, they could not get any response.
"What happened to Katy?"
The three Magi who had just landed couldn't help but feel suspicious.
Logically speaking, in a low-level plane like Envik Plane, a Grade 3 wizard could almost do whatever he wanted here. As long as they did not encounter those terrifying Grade 4 wizards, the rest of the Grade 3 Holy Knights were just a bunch of fake "charlatans" without the protection of the gods!
The so-called Holy Knights seemed to have the combat skills of a high-grade knight and the Holy Light Theurgy that was similar to spellcasters. They could use both long-range and short-range spells, and they cultivated both magic and physical skills. However, in the eyes of the wizards, they were a typical "trash profession" that was neither good at literature nor martial arts.
The wizards who came this time were all combat wizards, and each of them had the identity of a hunter. With such strength, how could they be in danger in this low-level plane? Even if Katy were to be surrounded by multiple Grade 3 Paladins, she would still be able to easily break out of the encirclement and escape!
However, the opponent was able to beat her to the point that she cried for help and was quickly defeated. The three wizards could not help but think of the two famous Grade 4 Holy Knights in this plane.
Right, there were two Grade 4 Holy Knights in this plane. One was in the south, leading people to besiege the Witch Tower, and the other was seriously injured and recuperating in the empire. Could it be … Could it be that this Holy Knight, who was recuperating from his injuries, wanted to move again?
Little did they know that in a forest 120 miles north of them, a fierce battle had just ended.
More than half of the team of Holy Knights that rushed over from the Imperial Capital had been injured, and the forest they were in was a mess. Broken ancient trees could be seen everywhere, and the Strength Qi that cut through the soil could be seen everywhere.
Katy, the terrifying Katy, had both her arms and legs chopped off, and was nailed to the cliff by a huge sword.
Even though the situation was dire, the ferocious Catie still fired terrifying energy beams from her crimson mechanical eyes, shredding the ancient trees and shrubs around her into pieces, creating a scene of desolation and devastation.
The Tier 4 Holy Knight had a simple and unadorned face and a determined expression. His short, white hair stood on end, giving him the appearance of an enraged lion.
Seeing that the Wicked Witch was still so ferocious even after her arms and legs were severed, the Grade 4 Holy Knight dashed towards Katie like an arrow and extended his right hand. Unafraid of Katie's terrifying crimson energy beam, he poked and bent two of his fingers and dug out the two strange half-machine eyeballs.
"Ah …"
Catie opened her mouth and let out a shrill scream. Five or six cracks appeared on her back, and a few metal tentacles reached out, ready to attack the Holy Paladin.
"Hmph, you don't know what's good for you …" The Holy Knight snorted coldly. He reached out with his right hand and grabbed the metal tentacles with lightning speed.
With a sudden burst of strength, Katy raised her neck and let out a shrill scream. The metal tentacles that were connected to her spine were severed at the roots, and several large bloody holes appeared on her back. Purplish black blood mixed with a fishy smell flowed out from the holes, and the surrounding Holy Knights were forced to take a few steps back.
However, even after suffering such a terrible injury, Katy still twisted her body, intending to retaliate.
The Holy Knight finally lost his patience. He reached out and quickly struck a few joints on Katy's body.
Neck, shoulder, sternum, lumbar, tail …
The series of attacks immediately dislocated or ruptured the metal joints in Catie's body. Catie's control over the mechanical parts and flesh was instantly paralyzed.
Catie's body finally went limp, no longer able to resist!
After subduing the ferocious mechanical witch, the Holy Knight looked around the battlefield. He saw the forest that had been destroyed, and then looked at the Holy Knights lying on the ground. His heart was filled with shock and anger.
What shocked him was the savagery and brutality of these foreign invaders …
He was furious at their indifferent attitude towards the creatures of the Envic Plane …
This Tier 4 Divine Knight, Ader? Carly was finally thoroughly enraged!
All the wizards should die. They couldn't be allowed to continue existing in the Envik Plane …
His raging emotions had triggered Adler? The injuries on Carley's body caused him to be unable to help but cough violently, and in one breath, he spat out a large pool of black blood. Amidst the black blood, he could vaguely see some organ fragments and flesh fibers.
This clearly showed that the serious injuries he had suffered in the Witch Tower had not only not stabilized, but even showed signs of worsening.
In order to reduce the casualties of the ordinary Holy Knights besieging the Witch Tower, Ader? Carly had once relied on his powerful strength to forcibly break into the Witch Tower and destroy the inter-plane long-distance teleportation formation there. Under the joint attack of the witches in the tower, his body had suffered a near-fatal blow.
If the Holy Light in his body was not the best at healing and dissolving foreign energy, perhaps Ader? Carly would not have been able to escape the tower alive.
Although he had escaped alive, the terrible injuries on his body deeply tormented him.
Out of desperation, Ader? Carly could only leave the battlefield and return to the imperial capital to recuperate. He used the holy space in the Cathedral of Holy Light to heal his injuries.
Unfortunately, just as his injuries were getting better, the almighty Holy Light transmitted the strongest warning to his ears. According to the Holy Light, there would be new enemies invading the northern part of the Empire. Their arrival would also cause a terrible calamity for the Holy Knights!
It was because of this terrible foreboding that Adde? Carly forced himself to lead a group of Holy Knights to the northern part of the Empire through the night. In order to save time, they even crossed the AvLee Mountains, Starfall Canyon, and the Wild Forest.
It was unknown whether it was the correct guidance of the Holy Light or the bad luck of the enemies, but when their team crossed the Hammer Mountain, they actually encountered this lone witch from another world.
