Chapter 603

"Hum!"

Just as Capelin and her Broken Blade Knights gradually walked further away, a buzzing sound rang out from within the rumbling waterfall. Finally, a different kind of movement appeared once again.

A stone wall slowly rose up, separating the water, splitting the waterfall, revealing a stone wall passage, which was imprinted in Shien's eyes.

Inside the stone wall passage, there were far more people squeezing there than before.

In the next second, they suddenly spurted out, like a fish, accompanied by a monstrous momentum, rushing out.

They were all Knights.

Knights from all over the world.

Even the equipment they wore was different, but at this time, they were divided into batches of armies, rushing out of the passage while surrounding the entire scene.

Shien watched this scene, but he didn't even make the slightest movement. He just stood there, motionless, like a statue.

As a result, many knights filled the place and completely surrounded it.

Shien was surrounded by a large number of Knights, and he was even shrouded by the monstrous momentum carried by the Knights.

The Knights all looked at the mysterious man in front of them, who was wearing a cloak and whose appearance couldn't be seen clearly. Their eyes bloomed with murderous light.

Looking closely, their eyes were flickering with a pale green color, rendering them like ghost soldiers from hell. It was very frightening.

And among them, the most frightening, the most ferocious, and the one with the most pale green eyes was Limjow.

Limjow was the leader of this army, standing in front of many Knights, facing Shien from afar, his face extremely gloomy.

"— —"

The atmosphere was condensing.

The air pressure was dropping sharply.

At this moment, a heavy pressure pervaded the entire place, causing a deathly silence to spread out.

"Is that you?"

Limjow spoke.

"The rat who sneaked into our Holy Land, is that you?"

Limjow looked at Shien coldly, and there was a trace of doubt in his heart for a moment.

Why does this person seem a little familiar?

Limjow had such a thought.

However, this thought was quickly replaced by killing intent and anger.

There was no other way.

Limjow was indeed very angry, and he really had the urge to cut this mysterious man into a thousand pieces.

In the beginning, Limjow was sent outside by the high priest to be in charge of searching for strange intruders.

In the end, Limjow didn't find anything. After he went back to report, not long after, something happened in the base.

And it was a big matter.

Just now, the high priest called Limcho back and scolded him with murderous intent. He told him that someone had snuck into the base and silently taken away the entertainment props of the Imperial Concubine in the basement.

This made Limjow really unable to believe it.

This was because he had thoroughly searched the area. Furthermore, the base was well-hidden, and the High Priest's [Death Corridor] was constantly on guard. Logically speaking, it should not be possible for a Saint to sneak in without a trace and bring the person out without a trace.

In particular, there were so many female Knights in the basement, yet they were all taken out of the base without a sound. This was too unbelievable.

No matter how he thought about it, it was impossible to do this.

But no matter what, the truth was the truth. The basement was indeed empty.

Although Limjow had never been to the basement, and even the high priest had never been there, except for the Imperial Concubine, no one had been there. However, the high priest's [Death Corridor] could no longer find any aura of living beings in the basement, which proved that there was no one left except for a group of dead people.

This was the dereliction of duty of the high priest, and at the same time, it was also Limjow's dereliction of duty.

The high priest was furious and vented all his anger on Limjow, so Limjow could only vent all his anger on Shien who was the culprit.

"Speak!"

Limjow's face was full of anger, and he released a huge murderous aura and magic power, even mixed with some gloomy aura, toward Shien.

"How did you do it?"

This was the only thing Limjow cared about.

He suspected that there might be some problems in the base that allowed someone to sneak in and take away so many people.

Maybe there was someone inside.

Or maybe there was some secret passage.

No matter which one it was, he had to figure it out.

Otherwise, that Poison Concubine was not someone to be trifled with. Once she blamed him, not only him, even the high priest would not be able to bear the consequences.

Unfortunately …

"Clang …"

Shien did not say anything, but the corners of his mouth curled up, as if he was mocking something, and he pulled out the holy sword from his waist.

That posture, that appearance, what it meant, there was no need to say more.

"Very good."

Limjow's eyes turned cold, and the murderous intent and hostility in his heart became even heavier.

Ever since he obtained the [Spiritual Essence] to refine his body, Limjow's strength greatly increased, and the dark side of his heart was constantly magnified.

This caused Limjow to no longer hide his heart, and he became completely free to do whatever he wanted.

Here, he could kill whoever he wanted, even if it was his former subordinates.

Here, he could go to whomever he wanted. He had completely lost the arrogance he used to have when he looked down on everyone except Rosie.

If it wasn't for Mara not allowing anyone to enter the basement and attack those female knights, those female knights might not only be whipped by Mara and used to provoke Capeline, but they would also be humiliated by people like Limjow until they completely collapsed. They wouldn't even be able to feel despair, and they would become broken dolls.

Even Capeline might be harmed by Limjow. Not to mention being alive and kicking like now, he would probably kill himself. It was impossible for him to live an ignoble life, right?

This Limjow was no longer the Limjow of the past, but a devil who had fallen into the abyss.

The reason why his uncle Yuri and Yuri's brother-in-law Sona became ghouls was because the high priest promised Limjow that as long as he killed those two people in the name of righteousness, he could get everything.

From that time on, the past Limjow might have been dead.

The current Limjow was just a humanoid monster occupied by the dark side and desire in his heart. The murderous intent and strength in his heart almost instantly rose to the peak.

"Kill him."

At that moment, Limjow didn't hesitate to order the knights around him.

Suddenly, the green light in the knights' eyes flickered.

The next moment, all the knights rushed towards Shien.

The weapons in their hands became pure murder weapons. They stabbed out one by one, covering the direction where Shien was.

Shien's figure was instantly drowned by countless knights.

However …

"Boom!"

With a roar, an incomparably huge magic power swept out from the center of the knights who drowned Shien.

"Bang!"

The knights who drowned Shien were all shaken away by the sweeping magic power.

"Ahhhhhh …!"

With a burst of screams, the knights who were shaken away smashed around like garbage one after another. Some fell to the ground, some smashed into the grass and trees, and some were even blown into the sky, directly disappearing, causing a wave of mournful cries.

"What …!?"

Limjow was shocked.

The rest of the knights stopped charging. The green light in their eyes disappeared and was replaced by a wave of fear.

Shien still stood in the same place.

On his body, the magic power rose into the sky like a tornado, going straight into the clouds, causing the atmosphere to be chaotic.

The trapped turtle in a jar suddenly became a god who shocked everyone.

The god even tilted his head and twitched the corner of his mouth as if he was puzzled and spat out two words.

"That's it?"

The clear and audible word fell into Limcho's ears, but it could be said to be the greatest insult.

But before Limjow could react, Shien's figure suddenly disappeared.

"…!"

Limjow suddenly felt a great sense of crisis.

He was a genius, and as the son of a duke who was related to the royal family, he also had the blood of the Brave in his body. Although it was very thin and could not be compared to the royal family, he was much more talented than the average person.

When Limjow became a Guard Knight, he was already seen by countless people as a promising new generation, and he was even thought to be a talent who could take over Alidia Albein's class. Even though he was only in his twenties and had not reached level 80, he still had extremely high combat qualities.

Now, with the help of [Spiritual Essence], Limjow, who had leveled up to level 84, was not an ordinary knight.

So, without thinking, Limjow pulled out his sword and slashed in front of him.

"Swoosh!"

There, in the faint sound of air breaking, a cloaked figure suddenly appeared without any warning, just entering Limjow's attack range.

"Huh?"

Under the opponent's hood, a slightly surprised voice came, proving that the opponent did not expect Limjow to be so sharp and decisive.

But …

"Clang!"

With a loud knocking sound, Limcho's slash was deflected away.

It was swatted away by Shien's empty hand as if he was swatting a fly.

"Impossible!"

Limjow's heart shook.

But, this was the difference between him and Shien.

Level 84?

The son of a duke with the blood of the Brave?

It was a pity.

Such an opponent, in front of the current Shien, was no longer enough.

"Bang!"

Sean did not swing his sword. He just kicked Limjow's chest fiercely, causing him to fall to the ground.

"Guah!"

Limjow only felt a sharp pain in his chest, his whole body was kicked, and he cried out.

At this moment, Shien had already raised his foot towards Limjow, who had fallen to the ground, and landed it heavily on his chest.

"Bang!"

At the same time, Shien's foot landed on Limjow's body.

"Pu!"

Limjow couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"That's it?"

The same evaluation came from Shien's mouth again.

Immediately after, Sean aimed at Limjow's chest, and continued to kick him.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" …

Muffled sounds rang continuously, causing Limjow's muffled groans and wails to ring out for a long time.
