In the secret passage of the Becker Mansion.
Cass and the others were walking down quickly.
They could already faintly hear the sounds of intense fighting coming from the depths.
"It's already been more than an hour! The battle is still going on … Is the target that strong? "
Celeste, who was given the title of [Retribution Knight], was in the upper zone of normal knights … An enemy that could make her fall into a difficult battle, even if it was a normal creature outside the city walls.
The target must be extraordinary.
"Once we discover that Knight Celeste is at a disadvantage and that we can't help, immediately think of a way to contact the knights outside."
"Okay …"
Sophia, who was in the same team, was extremely nervous. She prayed silently, hoping that her sister would be safe.
Celeste was a true knight, and she was much stronger than them in all aspects.
The [Seed] in her head had already sprouted and grown into a unique talent tree.
If even Celeste couldn't deal with it, they couldn't imagine how strong the enemy was.
"Hmm? The sounds of the battle disappeared? "
Just as the three of them reached the bottom of the cave, the sounds of the battle stopped abruptly.
The sudden silence made Cass extremely nervous. The inner layer of his armor was already covered in cold sweat … The battle was over, but the result was unknown.
If Celeste was defeated, once the three of them reached the bottom of the cave, they would die without a burial place.
"Sophia, Coslin, follow behind me! Once you discover the existence of evil beings, immediately escape from here. "
The three of them slowly reached the hidden stone pillar where they could see the 'sacrificial array'.
The scene in front of them made them tremble.
The huge rock in Cass' heart was finally put down.
Disgusting tentacles scattered in all directions.
Black sludge overflowing on the ground.
A male head crushed by a heavy hammer.
[The Fallen Becker] had been killed.
Celeste's body was exhausted. She was supported by a light shield and kneeling on one knee … The Divine Energy of Retribution stored in her head was almost completely used up in this battle.
She would need at least ten days, or even longer to rest.
Han Dong pretended to be extremely uncomfortable. He sat in the mud with a dull look in his eyes.
"Sister!!"
Sophia shouted in worry.
"Don't come over for now. Although the target is dead, the 'contaminants' have not been completely removed.
The three of you quickly go up and inform the Church to clean up the contamination. Tell them that the contamination that needs to be cleaned up comes from creatures outside the city. Tell them to bring enough tools. "
"It really is a creature from outside the city!!"
Just as Cass was about to leave, he looked at Han Dong worriedly and asked, "Do we need to bring Andwa's friend back to the church for purification?"
Celeste replied, "No … Hurry and call for help. Leave this mysterious acolyte to me."
"Alright."
Since Celeste had said so, Kars could only listen to Xun's orders and immediately return with his teammates.
Cass's eyes were filled with doubt as he walked up the secret staircase.
"Why would Andwa's friend appear in the center of the battle with the creatures outside the city?
Moreover, judging from the contaminants on his body, he seems to have participated in the battle with the creatures outside the city … "
Beside him, Faye immediately put forward her own opinion, "Impossible … This is a creature from outside the city. A novice knight would be doomed eternally just by looking at it from a distance. How could he fight it head-on?
Andwa should have rushed to the scene at the end of the battle. Sister deliberately left him behind to purify the contamination in his body, otherwise it would have been too late. "
Cass did not comment.
He had always thought that Han Dong was different from the others. Perhaps he had really helped Celeste to fight against the creatures outside the city.
"Anyway, let's report the situation to the church first. It's fine as long as Andwa's friend is fine."
…
Underground area.
Celeste, who was gradually recovering her strength, looked at Han Dong, who was covered in mud and even had two broken tentacles on his head.
"Your [Level] is higher than this creature outside the city … I can consider 'keeping things' about you a secret.
However, to ensure the safety of the Holy City, I have to bring you to the mysterious academy to listen to Mr. Black And White's opinion.
If the Crow Prophet knows about your situation and verbally believes that you are harmless, I will naturally bury this matter in my heart forever. "
Celeste was not good at expressing gratitude.
If Han Dong had not done all this, this incident would have ended with her death.
However, gratitude was gratitude.
The reason why knights existed was to protect the safety of the Holy City and fight for the freedom of all humans.
Although Han Dong's current performance was harmless, it could not be concluded that he was harmless to the entire Holy City … Therefore, as a knight, Celeste had to confirm this.
"Sure … Just say it here."
Han Dong opened the mysterious scroll that Mr. Black And White had given him earlier.
Dozens of crows immediately flew out from the scroll and circled at a low altitude. They used their black beaks to peck at the filthy tentacles on the ground.
In a short period of time, all the contaminants were eaten clean.
Then, the crows gathered in the center and turned into a mysterious man wearing a black mask, a black suit, and a black walking stick.
"The Crow Prophet!" Celeste quickly lowered her head.
"Yes, I was prepared to directly tamper with and hide your memories.
Since you are willing to keep it a secret, it is naturally the best … After all, erased memories can be recovered through special means. It is not absolutely safe. "
Celeste nodded in confirmation.
"As long as the Crow Prophet agrees, then there is no problem … I will keep this matter a secret! The matter of killing the creatures outside the city will all be attributed to me. It will have nothing to do with him. "
"Okay …"
"By the way, does the 'Great Plague Leader' know about this?"
"Captain, you don't have to worry about this kind of thing … I will take care of this student's matter."
The conversation ended.
Mr. Black And White once again turned into a crow, returned to the scroll, and disappeared into thin air.
At this time, footsteps could be heard from the corridor. The church's personnel were about to arrive.
Celeste immediately got up and used Holy Light to purify the filthy residue on Han Dong's body … Then, she took the initiative to help Han Dong up from the ground.
"Kid, give me your contact information."
"Oh … Okay."
This was the first time in Han Dong's life that a member of the opposite sex asked for his contact information.
"Also … Thank you."
Every time she said such words of gratitude, Celeste would blush … This had something to do with her self-esteem.
Celeste quickly returned to her original arrogant appearance.
"Okay, when the church's personnel arrive at the cave later, you don't have to say anything! I will take you directly back to the academy to prevent you from being exposed when they take you to the church for baptism. "
"Thank you."
Just like that.
With Celeste's help, Han Dong left the mansion and boarded the train back to the academy.
[The London Street Ghost Incident] came to a perfect end.
