The Black Knight stopped moving forward.
However, it did not mean that they would give up.
Sou Sou Sou!
Black spears were hurled out of the Knights' hands.
With a deafening whistle, the spears rained down on the Picard like a rainstorm, engulfing it.
"Stand behind me!"
Kieran said.
The Knight swung his dark red greatsword like a shield, protecting Schmidt, Raul, and Cidney in the driver's seat. Clang!
Clang! Clang!
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Kieran blocked every single one of the spears that were hurled at him.
But the ones that were aimed at the Picard …
The back of the Picard had been pierced like a hornet's nest by the spears. When one of the spears pierced through the bottom of the back of the Picard and lodged itself in the wheel bearings, the Picard started to wobble forward like a snake.
Cidney held the steering wheel tightly, but he did not seem to be able to move.
Quite the contrary, the situation was getting worse.
"Jump!"
Kieran shouted.
Everyone jumped out of the speeding Picard.
Kieran was holding Schmidt's belt, and Raul was hugging her husband, Cidney. Both of them landed safely on the ground, and the Picard rolled over on the side of the road.
The Black Knight shook the reins again.
The clattering of horse hooves sounded again.
"Retreat!"
Kieran signaled to everyone.
The situation before them was extremely dangerous.
He could not hold back anymore.
Maybe if he left Schmidt and Raul behind, he could escape safely.
However, Kieran's personality prevented him from doing so.
Even if he kept reminding himself that Schmidt and Raul were just natives, he couldn't help it.
However, he could not do it.
He did not want to do it.
He did not want to do it.
Huu!
He took a deep breath.
Kieran was ready to transform into his Devil form.
A thick sulphuric aura started to appear on Kieran's body, and his rampant, chaotic aura started to show.
Huala! Huala!
Kieran's cloak fluttered despite the lack of wind.
The wind blew against his hair, revealing a pair of black, determined eyes.
This, this is …
Schmidt, Raul and Cidney, who were forced to retreat, widened their eyes at the scene.
Although they already knew that Kieran had the ability to transform into a demon, they had never seen it with their own eyes.
Naturally, he would not let go of the opportunity in front of him.
At the next moment, just as Kieran was about to turn into the Heaven Scorching Flame, an extremely dense gray mist suddenly appeared. It was so dense that one couldn't even see their own fingers.
The fog hit Xuan 'er and enveloped the charging Black Knight.
Then …
As the fog surged, the Black Knight disappeared!
Kieran was stunned.
Schmidt even rubbed his eyes.
"What's going on?"
Schmidt asked in confusion.
"I don't know!"
Kieran shook his head and gestured to Schmidt and Raul to stay alert. Then, he walked towards the direction where the Black Knight had disappeared.
The tracks on the ground were clearly visible.
However, the Black Knight that should have been there was nowhere to be found.
Kieran frowned.
He instinctively checked the direction where the Black Knight had come from.
The Night Owl's hoof prints were clear as day.
This proved that the Black Knight had used the Night Owl's Charge to attack him.
"What is that mist?"
"Did the fog appear when Forende disappeared?"
After a round of searching, he didn't find any valuable clues, so he went back to the overturned car.
With Raul's help, Schmidt and Cidney flipped the car over. Schmidt started to inspect it. Kieran asked Raul and Cidney.
"Nothing!
"Although we were being chased, I remember very clearly that there was no fog at all during the whole process of us rushing out of Forende Town!"
When we tried to return to Forende Town, we realized that it had disappeared!
It was as if it had never been there! "
Raul said confidently.
Sydney also nodded in agreement with his wife's words.
"Is that so?"
Kieran believed that Raul and Cidney would not lie to him.
Then …
What had happened just now?
Had the Black Knight sensed that something was wrong and used a special method to retreat?
Or had something else appeared that he did not know about?
Kieran wondered.
Unfortunately, he did not have any evidence to prove his guesses.
Although he was sure that the Black Knight was organized and had a certain level of intelligence, it was still the same.
This ambush was the best proof of that.
However, that was all there was to it. It could not prove anything else.
"Hey guys, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"
Schmidt walked over to Kieran while he was deep in thought.
"The good news, I guess.
What happened just now was bad enough. I was hoping for some good news to soothe my bad mood! "
Kieran said.
Raul and Cidney nodded in agreement.
"The good news is that after some simple repairs, our car is still working!"
Schmidt said with a smile.
"What about the bad news?"
Kieran asked.
"The bad news is that it might break down at any time. Based on my ten years of driving experience, I can tell.
"That's why we need to get to the next town before it completely collapses!"
Otherwise, we'll have to walk! "
Schmidt said with a shrug.
"What are we waiting for?"
Kieran did not need to open the door to get into the front passenger seat.
When Schmidt, Raul, and Cidney got in the car, the truck squeaked and turned off the engine.
"I think we have a better chance of walking!"
Sydney sighed pessimistically.
Raul patted the back of her husband's hand, communicating in a way that only they could understand. She carefully picked up the glass shards that Cidney had touched with a pair of tweezers and started to bandage her husband's wound.
Kieran and Schmidt looked at each other.
Although they knew they were husband and wife, it was strange to see Raul take care of Cidney like a bandaged person.
"Don't expect me to bandage your wound!"
Schmidt pursed his lips and joked.
"F * ck off!"
Kieran answered without hesitation.
After another four or five tries, the Picard started moving.
The Picard moved at a fifth of its original speed.
By the time they arrived at Johnny Town, which they had not planned to stop at, the sky had already turned dark.
However, the dark sky did not stop Kieran from seeing someone standing at the entrance of the town.
On top of that, he was armed.
Kieran picked up the box with the [Arrogant Word].

In the afternoon, Dispirited Kieran wanted to eat braised meat rice to replenish his energy.
However, the braised meat rice was gone!
