Chapter 71

After setting up the teleportation array, Ang had to head out to the fields. Not long after setting off, he saw a skeleton kneeling in the distance, its posture quite good. Upon closer inspection, there were wing bones on its back, and beside the skeleton, there were two not very noticeable shadows.

The two parties passed each other, and their mental activities were intense.

"What is this? An angel's skeleton?"

"What are these two? Ghosts? No, black knights? Actually black knights? There are black knights in this world?"

"What are they doing here? Digging up the angel's skeleton? Is there an angel's grave here? No, it doesn't look like it's been dug up. This skeleton walked out on its own, an angel's skull?"

"Should I greet them and ask? What should I ask? Have you eaten?"

"Oh, how should I greet strangers on the road? I am the God of Knowledge, but I have no experience in this."

"This is overloaded..."

"Carrying four things, what kind of horse is this?"

"Is the one in front an angel?"

"Uh, aren't these the guys in the goblin's memory? Are we here to kill them?"

"This is too coincidental, what should we do? Should we greet them? How do you greet strangers?"

The above is the mental activity of Nigris and the two black knights. The mental activities of the others were much simpler.

Ang: What is this? Black.

Little Zombie: What is this? Can't beat it.

Lightning: What is this? Can't outrun me.

Angel Skull: Mine.

He immediately dismounted and rushed towards the skeleton on the ground.

"Bad, they are going to steal the holy remains!" The black knight was shocked and rushed forward, a sharp blade materializing in his hand, as if his arm had extended, slicing towards the angel skull.

"Ow!" The little zombie jumped off the horse, roaring and charging at the black knight.

Screech! A sharp sound of hooves braking, Lightning stopped its forward momentum, turned sideways, and moved laterally, its legs alternating like in dressage.

An ordinary warhorse could never achieve such a transition from movement to stillness and lateral movement.

The first black knight quickly changed his attack to a horizontal slash at the little zombie, who rolled to the side, dodging the black knight's blade.

The second black knight's blade was about to strike the angel skull when it raised its arm, a layer of holy light forming a wrist guard, blocking the black knight's shadow blade with a clang.

The second black knight pressed the tip of his blade down, pressing the angel skull's wrist, slicing horizontally.

The angel skull's other hand, wrapped in a glove of holy light, tried to grab the shadow blade.

The second black knight twisted his blade, the blade flipping and passing between the angel skull's hands, piercing into its chest, entering through the rib gaps, and penetrating half its body before being stopped by the bones in its back, unable to pierce through.

"Done, got it." Just as the second black knight thought this, the angel skull clenched its fist, wrapped in holy light, and punched towards his eye socket.

The second black knight quickly retreated, pulling out his blade and swinging it in front of him, forming a wall of blades.

Clang, clang, clang! The angel skull punched three times, all hitting the wall of blades, and both sides separated.

The black knight was uncertain, looking hard at the angel skull.

The angel skull looked like an angel, so the black knight used the methods for dealing with angels, using a shadow blade formed from soul energy to cut into the angel's body, which would cause significant damage.

The power of angels has additional damage against undead, and conversely, the power of the undead has additional damage against angels.

However, it didn't work. The angel skull showed no reaction, and the holy light on its hand made the black knight nervous.

"Not an angel, it's a skeleton in a skin!" The second black knight shouted loudly, warning his companion.

The first black knight had already run away. As he passed the little zombie, Lightning had already moved to his side.

Ang threw Nigris in front of the little zombie as a shield and swung his scythe.

The first black knight could only run away, pulling away to create distance, summoning his mount, transforming into a black knight, and then charging at Ang.

Lightning, not to be outdone, charged at the enemy.

Huh? Ang tilted his head and pulled hard on the reins. No, he didn't want to charge; he wasn't familiar with this move.

Ang and Lightning disagreed, losing the initiative, unable to build up speed, and losing the greatest advantage of cavalry.

The first black knight was overjoyed, urging his mount to full speed, his entire arm transforming into a shadow blade, slicing towards Ang. As long as the blade was steady, the speed of the mount would be enough to split the enemy's bones in two.

Just as the two were about to pass each other, Lightning tilted its body.

The black knight mistook Lightning for a horse, but Lightning wasn't a horse. Its limbs could spread out like a human's, doing a split, which ordinary horses couldn't do. With its evasion attributes maxed out, it was as agile as a monkey.

Misjudging the enemy's mount, the black knight's blade missed, and the two passed each other.

They passed each other, but the weapons didn't. A scythe blade hooked towards him, and he quickly slowed down and raised his shadow blade.

Clang! The black knight was hooked off his mount.

His shadow blade was a sword, relying on slashing, while Ang's weapon was a scythe, relying on hooking, so Ang refused Lightning's charge.

Losing his mount and landing, the black knight lost the advantage of speed and height, and Ang, from a higher position, stabbed down with his scythe.

The black knight cautiously retreated, unable to be careless. As a black knight who could be both real and illusory, even if he was cut a few times, he wouldn't be harmed, at most losing some form.

What he needed to be concerned about was a special kind of weapon that could cause additional damage to spiritual bodies and souls, like the scythe of death.

Well, the skeleton in front of him was wielding the scythe of death. Why could a gray bone skeleton use the scythe of death?

Retreat, block, parry, retreat, block, block, dodge. After a few rounds, the black knight decided to take a risk. As the scythe of death was raised, he suddenly lunged forward, rolling and aiming to cut Lightning's legs.

Ang had been waiting for this opportunity, staring at the black knight and shouting, "Die!"

Holy Word: Die!
