Destiny Thief

Chapter 43 Alisa's question
Miss Knight's eyes wandered in the church's prayer hall.

The furnishings in the hall are very simple, a statue of a god, a dozen chairs, and a large cabinet full of books.

Different from other places, the church in Baishi town is not very old, and the stones on the walls even have white grinding marks. Bishop Clover is telling the knights under his command about the church. The evil of the Necromancer is just that his narration skills are not outstanding. The original tortuous legends in his mouth have added too many unnecessary and gorgeous modifiers, coupled with the low tone, gradually making Miss Knight Drowsy.

Cody, who was at the side of the crowd, patted her hand lightly, which surprised her suddenly—but this still couldn't stop Miss Knight from wandering in the sky, and her thoughts kept floating from this unique building with a tall spire , scattered, and finally dissipated in the layers of white clouds in the sky.

goo—

The roar from the belly made the hall completely silent. Bishop Clover narrowed his eyes and looked at Miss Knight.

"Young men, haven't you had lunch yet?"

asked Bishop Cliver in a kindly voice.The church has its own meals, but today, in order to meet his nephew Chris, who just arrived, he chose to go to the tavern.

However, because most church members are still stationed in the church, there is still some processed food in the church kitchen.

Bishop Clover clapped his hands, and an old servant walked in with a bow. He looked at the three young men. The servant quickly understood, walked up to the three hungry knights, and shouted in a low voice. road:

"Please come with me!"

"thanks--"

Alyssa blushed suddenly because of her belly's honesty, and her voice was lowered.Only then did she retract her rambling thoughts and start dreaming about the lunch that would follow.

However, she was disappointed.

A plate of peeled beans, a few pieces of dry and hard cornbread, and a large bowl of potato soup with a few sprinklings of oil floating around were neatly placed on clean tableware and placed on a long wooden table. On the table—Alyssa rolled her eyelids and looked at Cody and Lars.

Cody, expressionless, sat on the chair and began to scoop up potato soup.

Lars frowned, but didn't speak - Alisa saw that the food lover didn't have much reaction, so she sat down silently.

Strictly speaking, this kind of food is a bit disrespectful as entertaining guests-it is not the first time Alisa has enjoyed church food, but compared to the churches she and her parents have visited, the hospitality in Baishi Town is too much. Too shabby.As a knight who has undergone rigorous training, he is not too picky about food, but as a high-ranking nobleman, his appetite will definitely not be very good in the face of these simple foods.

Grabbing a piece of bread and stuffing it into her mouth, the rough texture slid over the coating of her tongue, and the taste was very light. After Alisa swallowed a mouthful of potato soup, she finally swallowed the food.

And her companion is also sitting in a different seat and eating lunch quietly.

Alisa felt a little uneasy in her heart. After swallowing a few slices of bread to relieve her stomach discomfort, she picked up the spoon and stirred the remaining pieces of potatoes in the bowl back and forth.

Inadvertently, her finger touched her cheek again, which caused her thoughts to fly back to the original point. However, the current Miss Knight did not go into a rage, she was very calm—a woman who is full of food and drink will always become Gentle and harmless.

"Cody, what level do you think the skeleton is?"

Alisa asked Cody on the opposite side of the wooden table.Cody was born in a military noble family in the kingdom, and he is more knowledgeable than the two in terms of judging combat effectiveness.Alisa has also participated in the mission of "Suppressing Darkness" of the Church of the Holy Radiance in the past. This is not the first time she has fought against undead sequences such as skeletons. However, with her current strength, she has never seen such a powerful skeleton. .

This can't help but make her hate it, and her curiosity arouses.

"Probably—equivalent to the level of a regular member of the knight order!"

Cody thought for a while, and quickly answered.The knights he was talking about were the Iris Knights to which the three belonged. In the kingdom, this is a small but amazingly powerful organization.In fact, it is also one of the few core elites belonging to the royal family.

For the regular members of the Iris Knights, the only threshold is strength—every member, at this period, has at least LV20+ strength.Although professional level cannot be completely equated with combat effectiveness, in the eyes of outsiders, every member who is lucky enough to be selected into the knight order is a true elite.

In some weak local legions, this level of strength is even enough to be a battalion captain.

Cody's judgment fell into the ears of Miss Knight, and she frowned—she remembered the shocking sword in the night rain of lightning and thunder last night.The sword edge pierced through the dull air and made a sharp scream. She didn't have time to think, but subconsciously avoided it for a while.The sense of power brought by the high-speed impact transferred to her armor, and at that moment, she actually felt her whole body enter a brief paralysis.

This is an extremely dangerous message!

In "Dispute", when a character suffers an attack that exceeds a certain range, he will become frozen-this setting makes it possible to attack continuously like a storm.Those military nobles who are proficient in swordsmanship are all familiar with this skill.Alisa vaguely remembered that when she was young, her swordsmanship teacher, a retired mid-level military officer of the Kingdom, once said to her:
"In a real fight, when you lose control of your body, you've lost it!"

Yes, failed!

But Alyssa never had any depression. At this time, she finally had a chance to sit down quietly, and she tried to recall every detail that happened in her memory—the stabbing sword that rushed towards her face made her face hurt The wind pressure, the flash of light and flint...

In that instant, she was almost irresistible.If there is no accident, she is now lying in the cold coffin——Thinking about all the changes at that moment, Alisa gradually became suspicious:

Could it be that the other party showed mercy!

But he was just a skeleton—Alyssa's ice-blue eyes blinked, she stared at Cody, but didn't speak.

The other party obviously possesses quite a level of swordsmanship—truly superb swordsmanship comes from the high degree of harmony between body and will!Alisa suddenly remembered the description of skeletons in the "Illustrated Book of Undead Creatures" in the church——

At the bottom of the undead sequence, the body that lost its flesh and blood has lost too much strength and agility compared to its lifetime. It moves slowly, reacts slowly, and does not have the ability to respond to fierce battles. Most of them are made by the evil alchemy of necromancers... …

But the skeleton she faced, judging from the memories of the battle, was completely superior to her in strength and agility, and had a very good sense of combat - Cody and Lars said it was probably a skeleton. The "Resurrectionist" from Dill, however, Alyssa didn't agree with it a bit.

Because, the moment her knight mask fell, she faintly felt the other person's psychological change in her heart - it was a kind of surprise and appreciation.In the subsequent battle, the opponent suddenly gave up the attack and completely adopted a defensive posture, which further verified her suspicion.

The "Resurrected One" has no emotions, but the skeleton looks like a real human being with flesh and blood.

As if thinking of something, Alisa narrowed her eyes and poked the spoon into a piece of boiled potato.
