Hollow Knight: Hallownest

The questions about the remaining two missing knights have not been answered yet, and the appearance of Galion makes Mo Rong even more confused.

Is it out of order?

He thought about it roughly and it seemed that things started to go wrong after defeating Weaver Bumblebee. First it was the three Bone Nail Brothers and then the Five Knights of the Kingdom. The difficulty skyrocketed and he almost stayed in this place forever.

According to this logic, is it possible that...

Mo Rong fixed his gaze on Galion, his expression full of suspicion.

No matter how much this guy is enhanced, there is no reason for him to be ranked behind the Five Knights, right?

If the difficulty curve continued to rise, then his guess would be wrong, but Mo Rong had a hunch that the appearance of the Five Knights was definitely an exception, so he decided to take Galion's attack head-on.

The giant sickle hit the bone nails on the chest with both hands crossed with great force, making a loud impact sound, followed by a continuous harsh friction sound, but the giant sickle did not move forward even half an inch.

Blocked!

Mo Rong's heart was shocked. He felt the vibration transmitted to his arms along the nail handle, and there was still some disbelief in his heart.

"That's it, blocked it?"

He had already planned to release the black charge, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't even be able to use the force to relieve it, and he was hit head-on.

Is this still the Galian in my memory?

How come...it’s so much weaker?

He exerted force with both arms forward, and the spinning sickle was knocked away by the bone nails. It flew back to Galian's side in the direction it came from, and even retreated a long way before being stopped by the latter's force and continued to fly backwards.

Galian raised his hand and called the giant sickle back to his side. He did not launch the next attack immediately. In his pupils, which were almost integrated with his face, there seemed to be some different emotions, as if he was also caught off guard by the situation just now.

The next moment, the sharp claws on both sides of his body suddenly broke spontaneously, and then they expanded while suspended in the air. After a short while, they turned into a giant sickle and two small sickles, which began to rotate and smashed towards Mo Rong again.

The scene looked extremely intimidating. If it had happened not long ago, Mo Rong would probably have panicked at the first moment, but it was completely different now. Facing such multiple attacks, his emotions were like an old monk in meditation, without any ripples.

many?

Is there anything like Isma's almost all-round thorn whipping?

powerful?

No matter how strong you are, can you be as powerful as Hegmer when he swings his giant hammer and exerts the overwhelming force?

The combined attack of the four flying sickles arrived at his side almost at the same time, and at this moment, the two bone nails pointing obliquely at the ground also disappeared. The intertwined black and white tails passed through his body, and four crisp sounds sounded together.

"No, it's not that Galian has become weaker, but..."

“I’m too strong.”

The four flying sickles were repelled again. Mo Rong swung the two bone nails back to his side in a sword flower-like motion. Even such a simple action left faint scratches and sharp sounds in the air.

Mo Rong was not bragging. After the hellish baptism with the three brothers and the three knights just now, it would be difficult for a boss that had been amplified by the void to pose a threat to him. Not only in front of Galion, but even in many battles to come, he would probably have a great advantage.

This is the extremely wide range of benefits brought about by the great improvement, and not only that, you must know that every victory in a battle will bring him a gain in strength, which means that in the next battle, the growth curve of his own strength has been steadily higher than the difficulty curve.

Furthermore, from now on, he can have unimpeded access to the Void Pantheon.

As Mo Rong's figure disappeared from the spot, Galian began to float and run around randomly like a frightened bird or beast, and the four flying sickles also flew towards somewhere, but this time they were no longer in a straight line, but turning in an arc, from far away from him to close to him, without any pause.

They locked onto Mo Rong like this until he chopped down their wielder with bone nails, then they exploded into void particles and dissipated, and then all gathered into the former's body.

"As expected, the increase in the power of the three brothers and three knights is too great, so great that one of them can almost match the total gain of several times the bosses."

Mo Rong carefully experienced it and realized that Galian's increase in his power was completely incomparable to the previous battle. Risk and benefit are directly proportional. This sentence was fully reflected at this time.

While immersed in the afterglow, questions that I had not yet finished thinking about popped up in my mind again.

why?

If the appearance of the three brothers was just a temporary arrangement of the Void Pantheon and a means for the Void God to wipe him out, then what about the three knights?

Given their strength, they would never be ranked so high, which is almost equivalent to the existence of the second Pantheon in God's Residence.

Challenge the Five Knights in the Second Pantheon?

If there were only three pantheons in the entire God's Residence, he could still be slightly convinced, but the reality was completely different. It was obvious that they were different, different from all the void bosses he had encountered.

They were real emergencies, and perhaps... they were not arranged by the God of the Void at all.

Mo Rong's beating heart suddenly calmed down. He always felt that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, the five knights are one body. If only Orgrim and Isma appeared, he could understand it as a couple's battle. After all, he had encountered it in the game. But even Hegmer appeared here, but there was no sign of Drya and Zemor. This was very unusual.

With the appearance of a new boss, he temporarily kept this doubt aside and focused on practicing his bone nailing skills.

In the following battles, it took him a lot of time to defeat a boss. At full strength, he was able to defeat three or four bosses in a row. It usually took him a lot of time to pass through one Pantheon, but now he had already passed nearly three Pantheons. His progress was frighteningly fast.

However, he still didn't see Zemor and Delia.

"The Void Pantheon is essentially still a Pantheon, with the same nature as the God's Residence. It can only tune the warriors that exist on this land, so it should be able to tune the two knights as well. But why..."

Mo Rong pondered for a long time, but could not find the answer.

"Could it be that these two knights have some special means to resist the tuning of the Void Pantheon?"

"Or rather..."

His face darkened and he quickened his pace to advance into the Pantheon, beginning his charge through it without holding back.

Although he didn't know what had happened in the outside world, he had a hunch -

Things have changed in Hallownest!
