Black Knight From Blue Star

 It stands to reason that when a person is in a coma, he or she is unconscious.

 But Hardy could feel that he was wrapped in a gentle force and seemed to be falling.

 Falling.

 With a final splash, he seemed to have fallen into the water.

 The gentle power disappeared, and Hardy opened his eyes suddenly.

The surroundings were pitch dark, and the cold water soaked into his whole body.

 Because it was too dark, there was no light at all, and it was impossible to tell the difference between up and down.

 Fortunately, he is a professional, his breathing is very long, he can stay in the water for about ten minutes without breathing, and he can also swim.

He calmed down and felt the buoyancy of the water. After confirming the direction, he swam upward.

 After swimming for about half a minute, he saw a faint light and the water surface. He swam up and took a deep breath.

I thought it was a breath of fresh air, but instead the smell of sulfur penetrated my lungs.

Hardy coughed twice, and then got used to the smell.

  After all, the physical fitness of a professional who is close to the legendary level is not something to be underestimated.

The surroundings were also very dark. Fortunately, Hardy also had weak dark vision in his human form. He looked around, found the shore, and swam over.

 Then climb ashore.

 The water was cold, but it seemed even colder on the shore.

Hardy flicked his fingers, and a flame appeared in front of him.

　Hardy then narrowed his eyes.

 Because something is wrong. As a strong person close to the legendary level, it is very clear how big the flames can be created by using mental power.

 The flames in front of me are too small!

 Then he used his spiritual power to sense and found that there was very little fire element in the air, pitifully little.

 In contrast, the share of dark elements is particularly high.

 Plus the strong smell of sulfur in the air!

 This is the devil's world?

If an ordinary professional falls into the water and gets wet in cold weather, and climbs ashore, no matter how good his health is, he will probably have some trouble.

  But fortunately, there is research in this area in the E.P.R magic system.

 Because the E.P.R trio discovered that sometimes mages may encounter some special circumstances.

 For example, places with relatively high single magic elements such as volcanoes and glaciers.

 In these places, it is very troublesome to use other magic.

 After all, other magical elements are relatively rare.

 Also worried about this happening, the E.P.R trio developed the special technique of ‘element conversion’ last year.

  Can transform one element into another element.

Although it will also consume some mental power, it is still much better than using mental power to desperately draw out scarce elements.

 Elements are transferred and ignited.

 A bright flame rose from the ground.

There was a lot of dead grass on the ground at this time. Hardy picked some around and threw it on the fire to make it warmer and brighter.

Hardy sat next to him and breathed a sigh of relief.

 The weather is really cold. Under normal circumstances, Hardy would not be afraid, but now he is soaked all over. He needs to be more careful in the wilderness.

 Now that I have a fire, I feel much better immediately.

Sitting and warming himself by the fire was also boring. Hardy took out the dried meat from the system backpack and chewed it slowly.

 This is a habit in his game.

 Generally, one third of the grid is filled with food in the backpack.

 The main reason is that the food in the system backpack will not deteriorate and does not take up weight.

And people like him who love to hoard food have more or less been "traumatized" before.

His trauma was when he first started playing the game, because he forgot to prepare dry food, and then got lost in the wild, and finally starved to death.

Although the hunger was only one-tenth of the reality, he still managed to have 'sequelae'.

 When there was no system in the past, this habit was not obvious.

Now that I have the system backpack, the sequelae are back all at once. He was warming himself by the fire, and soon the clothes in front of him were dry, so he turned around and faced the fire behind him.

 At the same time, he took out a piece of dried meat.

 After taking two bites, he noticed bright lights flashing from time to time in the night sky in front of him.

It's not very obvious, but it can still be seen in the almost complete darkness of the night.

 “The light of magic.”

Hardy ate the dried meat in several mouthfuls, then extinguished the fire with a ball of water element, and then raised his right hand high, preparing to summon the nightmare mount. As a result, the black tornado spun for a long time. When he walked out of the tornado, he just changed. He became a four-meter-tall giant iron man, and his nightmare mount was nowhere to be seen.

what happened?

 Where is your nightmare horse?

 He used his spiritual power to sense it, and was surprised to find that his horse was missing.

 What is the situation?

 Hardy was puzzled.

 Then he started running, but he only ran for less than half a minute before he stopped.

 The reason is very simple. The current four-meter-high iron lump is too heavy.

 The speed is not fast, and it is very tiring.

 He turned around helplessly into his human form, cast a shadow affinity magic on himself, and then ran towards the place where flashes of light appeared from time to time.

 Shadow Affinity is a magic that can make his presence less noticeable in the dark.

Although it cannot be compared with the assassin's shadow walking, the effect is actually not bad.

While running towards the destination, Hardy was also looking at the surrounding environment.

 At first he thought this was the devil's world, but now he's not sure.

 Because there are no trees or grass in the demon world.

 But here, there are trees and weeds.

 It's just that most of the trees and wild grass are dead, and the remaining trees that are still alive are wilting.

 Not long after, Hardy came to the place where flashes of light frequently appeared.

This is a town, and at the entrance of the town, a war is breaking out.

 A group of humans were guarding under the low wall of the town, resisting the attack of a group of lizardmen.

 Both sides fought fiercely, and angry roars and screams broke out one after another.

Hady observed it and found that the lizardmen would grab the human corpses that fell from the city wall directly to the rear and pile them together.

Human beings will cry out in anger and sorrow when they see this situation.

 In this situation, Hardy certainly knows which side to help.

 ‘Sensitivity improved. ’

　　　Strength enhancement. ’

 ‘To gain the upper hand over the enemy. ’

 ‘Protection from evil. ’

 Several buffing magics were applied to Hardy's body in less than two seconds.

 It has been a long time since he tried to fight as a magic warrior.

　　I quite miss it.

 “Charge!”

With a swish sound, Hardy cut into the battlefield from behind the lizard man.

More than thirty lizardmen are quite powerful, but to Hardy, who is now close to a legend, they are no different from more than thirty chicks that have just hatched.

 One for each kick, one for each knife!

 And it is fast, cruel, and deadly.

 From the time he entered the battlefield to killing all the lizards, the entire process did not take more than a minute.

  The lizardmen didn't even have a chance to escape!

 He flicked the green-scale sword in his hand, and the light blue blood of the lizard tribe was thrown away, and then sheathed the sword.

 On the city wall of the town, a group of humans dressed in rags were stunned. (End of chapter)
