"It's actually Lord Pilar who came. This time, it's really …"
Looking at the mighty middle-aged knight in the distance, a strange expression appeared on Deere's face.
At the side, Adil also had the same expression on his face. "Indeed, this time …"
He looked at the cold-faced middle-aged knight in the distance, and his expression was also very strange.
Adil had an impression of that knight in his memories. He was the guard officer of Count Poria's castle, leading the most elite guards in the entire castle, and was responsible for protecting the castle. Thus, even though the battle at the frontlines had become so intense, this knight had never been transferred away.
Moreover, even among the many knights under Count Poria, this knight was also one of the top ones. It was said that in the early years of the war with the Pod Kingdom, he had personally killed three enemy knight experts, establishing a meritorious service. This was why he was valued by Count Poria and made him protect the safety of his castle.
However, if Adil remembered correctly, this knight's only son seemed to be the knight apprentice who led the team out a while ago. In the end, even his corpse was not found, and he was reckoned to have been eaten by the wild beasts on the roadside.
His only child's corpse was nowhere to be found. It was no wonder that this knight would have such a cold expression, even leaving the castle that he had been guarding and personally leading the team here.
"This place is going to be lively." Thinking of this, Adil sighed inwardly.
During this period of time, the border was already very chaotic. All kinds of bandit groups and savage tribes kept surging out, and there were even faint traces of beastmen.
In such a chaotic situation, with another top-notch knight coming, it was really hard to say how the situation would develop in the end.
Thinking of this, Adil shook his head. Looking at the knight's gradually disappearing figure, he followed Deere who was at the side and walked into the camp.
No matter what, the power brought by a knight was obvious.
After the arrival of this Knight Pilar, the camp that was originally in a bit of panic immediately calmed down.
This was the result brought about by the power and prestige of a knight.
In this dangerous world, without power, one would not be able to live in peace. And in this world, the power of a knight was easily enough to suppress a territory and maintain the stability of an area. It was the symbol of power in the hearts of the people.
Especially in such a dangerous situation, the arrival of a powerful knight was enough to stabilize the hearts of the people, causing the pervasive panic to disappear.
Once the Knight of Prahl arrived, he first summoned the leader of the camp and had him give a detailed report of what had happened in the area and analyze the current situation. Only then did he arrange for the people he had brought to the south side of the camp.
After doing this, he walked with a cold face to the corpse in the middle of the camp, accompanied by a few people. It seemed that he was going to observe it.
During this period of time, the surrounding weather was very hot, and the sun hung high all day long. More than ten days had passed since these corpses died and were placed here. They had already begun to rot and stink. The corpse had already been bitten to pieces by wild beasts. Now that it was rotting, it looked even more horrifying. Even Adil couldn't help but frown.
Prahl didn't have any special reaction. With a cold face, he looked at the miserable rotting corpses, and even used his hands to touch the wounds, not at all disgusted by it.
Not much could be seen from the rotting corpses. Even the large wounds on the corpses had been eaten by wild beasts and rotted away.
Prahl brought a few people to observe for a period of time. In the end, he couldn't find anything, so he left with a cold face.
"A.I. Chip, display the corpse's stats."
After the Knight left, Adil walked to the side and spoke to the A.I. Chip in his mind.
[Name: Prahl. Strength: 4.7. Agility: 4.4. Vitality: 4.5.]
[Beep! This life form is extremely dangerous. In the event of conflict, the host's survival rate is less than 8.7%. Recommended to stay far away.]
The A.I. Chip's data caused Adil to gasp, and his mind to tremble.
'How is this possible? This kind of physique has already broken through the physiological limits of humans! '
His heart trembled, and he stared at the Knight who was gradually walking further away. Shock appeared on his face.
As a biologist from his previous life, he knew that in this world, no matter what life form it was, there were limits.
Humans were intelligent beings, and in this aspect, they were no exception.
These limits were the limits of a person's physiological structure, as well as the limits of their genes. Under natural conditions, unless they underwent countless years of effective evolution, it was impossible to break through these limits.
In Adil's previous world, in which technology was extremely advanced, there was such genetic modification. Through the improvement of the human genes, one could break through the genetic limits and create genetic warriors that surpassed the limits of the human body.
However, although this backward world was mysterious, it was obvious that the methods from his previous world did not exist. Even if they did, it would not appear in this backward little place.
'Is this the effect of activating the Seed of Life? Breaking through the natural genetic limits of the human body, allowing the body's strength, which had already reached its limits, to rise once again.
'Rather than saying that it's breaking through the limits, it's better to say that it's a unique evolution.'
At this thought, Adil's eyes shone with extreme excitement, and he could not help but look at the Knight with a passionate gaze.
'It's a pity that I don't have the conditions to conduct research on hand. If I could dissect the corpse of a Knight with an activated Seed of Life, I should be able to unravel some mysteries.'
His professional instincts from his past life made Adil subconsciously feel a desire to conduct research.
He shook his head, temporarily dispelling those unrealistic thoughts in his mind. He walked towards a quiet place to the side, preparing to train for a while by himself.
That night, under Knight Pralar's orders, the corpses that had been placed in the camp were dragged out and cremated.
The scorching flames burned fiercely in the center, the firelight reflecting the silent faces of many people, also casting their shadows on the ground.
In the following period of time, the influence brought about by Knight Pralar began to show.
Compared to the original leader, this knight's attack power was obviously much stronger, and his strength was also much greater.
After the first few days of investigation, he personally led his men and ruthlessly swept through a few savage tribes that had been causing trouble in the area, chopping off their heads and hanging them in front of the camp's gates to deter the surrounding enemies.
This cruel method was very popular in this world, and the results were not bad.
