Rumble!!
A deafening sound rang out. In that instant, two figures clashed, and one of them was sent flying far away, crashing into the wall and creating a huge crater.
It was Anum. There was a shocking wound on his chest, from which fresh blood flowed, and his internal organs could be vaguely seen.
After all, he was only a Heavenly Knight, and was still a long way from a Conferred Knight like Oris. Moreover, his broken limbs had just been reattached by Adil not too long ago, and he had yet to get used to it.
Without any luck, he was easily suppressed by Oris the moment they made contact, not even able to block a single blow.
Looking at the pitiful Anum, Oris stood where he was, breathing unsteadily. A hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes as he looked at Anum.
He quickly walked forward, not intending to show any mercy, and was prepared to take advantage of this opportunity to finish off Anum.
However, just as he took a step forward, his figure involuntarily paused and came to a halt.
As a powerful warrior who had been through hundreds of battles, at this moment, Oris could clearly sense a scalp-numbing sense of danger coming from behind him, causing his gaze to turn solemn.
Bang!!
The sound of metal clashing rang out, accompanied by the vibrations and collisions of life force.
Caught off guard, Adil unleashed his power, the longsword in his hand stabbing towards his opponent, clashing with his opponent's longsword.
Both of their life forces exploded, and their strength was transmitted to each other through their swords.
In that instant, Oris's expression changed, and the hand holding the sword trembled slightly.
"How can there be such a huge amount of life force!!" This thought flashed through his mind, and he looked at Adil in shock.
In this clash with Adil, he could clearly feel the life force from Adil's body. It was powerful, but it was only at the level of an ordinary Heavenly Knight, far inferior to him.
But even though it was lacking in quality, the quantity had reached a level that shocked and puzzled him. It was several times his own, and he could not help but be shocked.
This was the benefit of having a powerful life force.
Although Adil was just a heavenly knight, his life level had far surpassed this level.
The life force of a rank 2 Magus, along with the addition of the moon elf bloodline, gave Adil a powerful life force and physique.
In this aspect, not to mention a Heavenly Knight, even a real Radiant Knight could only be on par with him.
The stronger one's physique and life force were, the corresponding life force would increase. Even though the quality of life force couldn't compare to that of Oris, the quantity was more than enough to bury Oris.
"Could he be a descendant of the royal family?" At this moment, this thought suddenly appeared in Oris's mind.
As a Conferred Knight, as well as a great aristocrat with a legacy of several hundred years, he was already at the top of the Malan Empire. He had some understanding of many things that ordinary aristocrats would not be able to come into contact with.
The so-called Royal Descendants, as the name suggested, referred to the descendants of the King.
Legend has it that tens of thousands of years ago, during the Epic Era, there was a period of glory.
During that period, Ancestor Knights appeared one after another, wantonly fighting in the world, and their power shook the entire world.
Later on, historians who studied this period called it the Era of the Rise of the Kings. Those Ancestor Knights who achieved success during that period, if placed in the future, would be able to unify the entire world like the King of Earth.
Because of this, in this world, the descendants of the Ancestor Knights were known as the Royal Descendants.
As the descendants of the King, once these Royal Descendants awakened their bloodline, they would awaken various talents. Not only would their Knight's talent far surpass that of ordinary people, they would also be able to inherit some of the characteristics of their ancestors.
And now, facing such a terrifying performance from Adil, Oris immediately linked this to the Royal Descendants.
Before he could think further, the life force in front of him exploded again.
* Boom!! *
A violent explosion suddenly sounded, accompanied by strands of silver and green Dou Qi.
In front of him, Oris and Adil both retreated at the same time, their expressions turning solemn.
After composing himself, Adil's expression was calm. He looked at Oris, who was in front of him, and directly swung his sword.
The silver Moon King's Sword instantly shone brightly, and streaks of silver life force flickered on it. In an instant, it turned into a terrifying silver sword light, rushing into the distance.
However, what shocked Oris was that the final target of this sword light was not him, but a corner in the distance.
There, a middle-aged man wrapped in tattered black clothes, with a huge dent in his chest, was struggling to support himself against the wall. His face looked very pale. It was the middle-aged man who had attacked Adil before.
He had been standing there watching the battle, thinking that after Oris made his move, everything would be settled. He did not expect Adil to suddenly appear.
At this moment, seeing the silver sword light in the distance, his expression instantly changed, and his eyes were filled with shock and fear.
He subconsciously wanted to escape, but he was still heavily injured. Even if he was a Heavenly Knight, it was already very good that he could stand there, let alone escape quickly.
"Damn it!" Seeing this scene, Oris cursed inwardly, but he did not hesitate at all. He directly rushed in front of the middle-aged man, blocking the silver battle qi with his sword.
Taking advantage of this time, Adil had already walked in front of Anum. After carrying him with one hand, he quickly rushed out, with no intention of continuing the battle with Oris.
On the other side, seeing Adil's figure in the distance, Oris's expression was uncertain. Looking at the middle-aged man behind him who could no longer move, he hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he did not chase after him.
It was not easy to train a Heavenly Knight. Even an old noble like Count Oris only had two Heavenly Knights in his family, and they could not be easily lost.
It was not worth it to lose a Heavenly Knight just to chase after Adil and Anum.
After all, today's attack was not just from the eldest prince's side. The Turing Sect was the main force, and there was no need for him to fight them to the death.
This was especially so for Adil, who was suspected to be a descendant of the royal family. The life force in his body had reached a terrifying level. Even if an old Conferred Knight like Oris were to personally make a move, he might not be able to take him down within a short period of time.
Thinking of this, Oris's originally gloomy expression gradually calmed down. Looking at Adil's gradually disappearing back, he felt a little regretful at the same time.
"It's a pity. An awakened descendant of the royal family. If I could get him to join the eldest prince's side, he might be able to train a true Radiant Knight." Looking at Adil in the distance, he felt a little regretful. "It's a pity that such a person had to rely on that princess."
"Since you refuse to surrender, then I can only find a chance to get rid of you."
He looked into the distance, and it was as if he could see rows of soldiers and corpses.
Thud … thud …
The sound of hurried footsteps could be heard.
On a patch of grass, Adil carried Anum on his back and quickly walked into the distance. His speed was so fast that even the sprinting champions from his previous life would feel ashamed of themselves.
However, because he was wary of Anum's injuries, his speed was not too fast. At the very least, it was far from his maximum speed. Even compared to ordinary Heavenly Knights, he was still slow.
Fortunately, there were a limited number of Heavenly Knights in this manor. Other than Oris and Anum, it would be very difficult to encounter a third Heavenly Knight.
As for the other Grand Knights, not only could they not keep up with Adil's speed, even if they managed to catch up, it would only take a single slash.
Boom!!
At this moment, there was a loud sound from afar, accompanied by the sound of metal clashing.
"It's from the princess!!" Hearing the sound, and after determining the direction and distance of the sound, Anum's expression changed. His already pale face turned even more grim. "Something's wrong. Count Oris is really going to act against us!!"
Hearing the sound, Adil's originally hurried footsteps also slowed down.
He looked in a certain direction, and hearing the sounds of fighting, he could not help but frown. He seemed a little puzzled.
"Are all the attackers so bold now? They're actually attacking in this manor without any concealment?" He looked in the direction of the sound, and his expression became much more solemn.
"Because that's the eldest prince." Behind him, Anum coughed a few times, and finally said reluctantly, "This has always been the eldest prince's style. If he wants to kill someone, he will kill them no matter what."
"Not to mention this is just Count Oris's manor, even if this was the palace, the eldest prince would definitely act if he really made up his mind." He coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his face unknowingly became paler. "This has always been the style of the military."
"How domineering and direct." Adil sighed softly.
Before deciding to join the Malan Empire, Adil had analyzed the information of the successors of the Malan Empire in detail. As the strongest, the eldest prince had naturally done the same.
This prince's style had always been domineering and direct. When he was ten years old, he dared to fight with a lion. After almost dying, not only did he not feel fear, but he also challenged the lion every day until he beat the lion to death.
Domineering and direct had always been the style of the military. Even Adil did not expect some of the situations caused by this.
Just like this time, Adil originally thought that with the other party's identity, even if he wanted to attack Elina, he would more or less consider the reputation and the Malan Empire behind him.
As long as the other party had some reservations, with Elina's current situation, she would only need to borrow the protection of the Malan Academy to delay for a few years. While the other party set his sights on other people, he could also slowly accumulate his strength.
But after all, reality and ideals were still very far apart.
The other party did not care about the consequences, and did not give Elina any time. He directly ordered his subordinates to attack Elina, leaving no room for negotiation.
This domineering and direct style made even Adil sigh. He felt that it was a little troublesome.
"Adil." Anum's voice came from behind again.
Lying on Adil's back, he said with difficulty, "Put me down, Princess Elina is more important."
"I'm already seriously injured. If I go now, not only will I not be of any help, I'll even be a burden to you."
He looked at Adil and said with difficulty, his voice getting softer and softer.
Looking at Anum behind him with some surprise, Adil did not act like what was written in some books in his previous life, where he would rather die than abandon his companions. Instead, he directly nodded.
This was not a difficult choice to make.
Just like what the other party said, Anum was seriously injured by Oris, and he did not even have a tenth of his fighting strength left. With his current strength, let alone a Firmament Knight, it would be good if he could even fight a Grand Knight.
With this kind of strength, let alone help Elina, it would be good enough if he did not get captured and used as blackmail. At that time, he would only harm himself and others.
Standing on the spot and looking up, Adil suddenly waved his hand, and a silver light flashed on the silver longsword in his hand.
Ah …
Several screams rang out, mixed with the stench of blood and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
In the surroundings, Adil directly killed all the living people around him, and then carried Anum to an inconspicuous cubicle.
The cubicle looked very small, and it was filled with straw, accompanied by a faint fragrance.
Walking here, Adil put Anum down on his back and said, "Hide here, don't let anyone find you."
"Okay!" Looking at the cubicle in front of him, Anum nodded with difficulty, and walked in without any hesitation.
After doing this, Adil turned around, wiped away all traces, and walked into the distance.
In the distance, an intense battle was starting.
Bang! Boom!!
In a spacious hall, several loud noises rang out on the spot.
Dozens of knights were lined up, their bodies more or less emanating the aura of life, and they were currently fighting each other.
And in the middle of the knights, Elina was dressed in a red robe, her red aura gradually condensing, and she was looking at the people opposite her with a solemn expression.
It was a few men in black robes, and their bodies were almost completely covered in black, revealing only a pair of inky black eyes.
These people's eyes carried a deathly stillness and calmness, and there was also an obvious sense of fanaticism and madness. When combined together, it was extremely contradictory.
And on their foreheads, a triangular mark gradually appeared, with a horizontal eye in the center. It carried a thick sense of majesty, signifying that these people were descendants of the Turin Dynasty.
"People from the Turin Sect?" Looking at the people in black robes with the triangular mark on their foreheads, Elina's expression was solemn as she took the initiative to speak.
But in response to her words, the people in black robes did not say a word. They only stood there in Silence, staring at her with a pair of deathly yet crazed eyes.
