Chapter 197 "Exiled Knight" Mordred (5k2)

[You have arrived at the "Land of Exile"].

In front of Luo Xiu, the panel flashing with dark yellow light soon "broken", and rolled into the dust along with the dancing sand.

Luo Xiu looked around, "Faceless" Intis, and the other five apostles of "Holy Abyss" were standing behind him at this time, with expressions of surprise and shock on their faces.

The wind and sand blocked their sight, and even Intis, who had the highest "perception", could not see what was hidden behind the storm.

But everyone could feel that an extremely surging and powerful spiritual surge was entrenched opposite the sand wall.

Luo Xiu noticed that the "shadows" behind him had a sense of fear.

But this is normal, Luo Xiu thought.

Even himself, who had the "fourfold destiny", felt a slight fear when he pieced together the three "crown fragments" and was teleported to this "Land of Exile".

At the origin of the storm, the "Exiled Knight" Mordred was waiting for these "intruders" to pass through the storm...

As the holder of three "Fragments of King Isol's Crown", Luo Xiu could clearly feel the exact location of the last "Fragment of King Isol's Crown".

And its location coincided with the surging and powerful spirituality, which allowed Luo Xiu to almost confirm the true level of the other party.

Luo Xiu then raised his vigilance, cheered up, and took steps to the depths of the storm.

...

This is an ancient battlefield.

When he really passed through the storm and arrived at the center of the "Land of Exile", Luo Xiu saw this scene.

The broken armor formed a small hill, and the broken half of the long spear was buried deep under the yellow sand. The feathers of the flag had long faded, but they were still fluttering stubbornly.

Skeletons, deep pits, broken walls, and dried-up blood rivers all indicate that this place has experienced a war and a catastrophe, and these scenes carry such broken memories.

At the end of the field of vision, there is the skeleton of a huge beast.

A knight is sitting on the skull of the beast.

He is a knight of small size, and looks very petite compared to the beast under him.

He is wearing armor interwoven with red and gold, and his head is half covered by an exquisite feather helmet, revealing only his eyes and the lower half of his face covered with etched lines.

The knight embraces a big sword, and its blade pierces his armor and penetrates his chest.

Blood flows out along the blade and gradually drips onto the skeleton of the beast under the knight.

...

Luo Xiu, Intis and other "shadows" are standing at the edge of the inner circle of the storm, facing the knight sitting on the skeleton.

That was the "Exiled Knight" Mordred.

That was the "Lord", the "unprecedented powerful existence" that everyone had talked about...

The "Dream Thief" Pior, his body trembled violently, and fear could not stop spreading from his heart.

That was the pressure from the "spiritual" level. Not only Pior, but all the shadows also had similar feelings.

But no one said to retreat. The "Lord" had already told them that this was a "trial", a life-and-death battle.

Surviving the "trial" would allow them to reach a higher position in the "Holy Abyss", which was a great temptation for all the shadow apostles.

And from Luo Xiu's perspective.

Even if he looked at the "tiny" figure of Mordred from a distance, Luo Xiu could feel that the heart-pounding power was constantly shaking his soul.

Due to the distance, Luo Xiu has not been able to detect Mordred, but the source of that terrifying breath is undoubtedly far beyond the "distortion" and "distortion +" of the previous "Immortal Knight" and "Wandering Knight", and is completely on a different level.

That is the real "madness", and even more than that. Luo Xiu can feel that the breath coming back from Mordred is at the same level as the "Star Shattering Ring" summoned by the "Generalist" Rocklan before, and even higher.

This shows that the threat level of "Exiled Knight" Mordred should be rated as "madness +"...

That is almost equivalent to the "Saint" who has just entered the fifth level of destiny!

Compared with those "National Knights", the real "National Knight" has to span two major levels!

While Luo Xiu was watching from afar, the "Exiled Knight" Mordred from the end of his vision suddenly made a new move.

——Crack, snap… the sharp, frosted sound was clearly heard by everyone.

“Exiled Knight” Mordred, his hands, which were originally wrapped around the greatsword that pierced his body, suddenly stretched forward a little sluggishly and tightly grasped the hilt of the greatsword.

A deep red air wave instantly rose from around Mordred, and the damaged blade of the greatsword was immediately stained with scarlet color and was pulled out of his body bit by bit!

Under the feather helmet worn by Mordred, the eyes that were originally closed suddenly opened. There was a dark gold and a red pupil, which were mixed with many complex emotions such as coldness, depth, hostility, etc.

“How long has it been…”

“Exiled Knight” Mordred, he let out a long sigh indifferently.

Then, he raised the scarlet-stained long sword in his hand, and the surging spirituality in it immediately spread out to the surroundings, and he quickly ran to the edge of the battlefield.

Visible to the naked eye, the storm that originally swept across the edge of the battlefield gradually stopped raging when it touched those scarlet spirits.

But the storm did not return to dust, but was frozen at a certain moment - the sand and dust suspended in the air were connected by fine scarlet threads, quickly forming a giant net, a barrier, and a A high wall that separates the inside and outside.

"you……"

When the storm was forcibly stopped, Mordred's deep eyes looked at Luo Xiu and the "intruders" behind him.

"I am...Mordred..."

"This is my last battlefield."

"I am an exiled, abandoned, wanderer watching in this isolated place..."

"I am also the lonely, unblessed, corrupt guardian of the Court of Isol."

"..."

Mordred, the "Ride of Exile", stood aloof on top of the beast's corpse, holding the scarlet sword in his hand, narrating this to the "intruders" in a calm voice.

Unlike the "Immortal Rider" Greville and the "Wandering Rider" Miklos at the beginning, the "Exiled Rider" Mordred seems to still retain most of his sanity.

Although his eyes were cloudy, there was a bright light in them, which was impossible for those with corrupted souls to possess.

At the edge of the battlefield, Luo Xiu stood in front of the cessation of the storm barrier and watched, making such conjectures in his mind.

At the same time, he listened to Mordred continue to state "talking to himself":

"My king is insane."

"Isol doesn't need knights, let alone extraneous things to defend 'authority'..."

"However, they still need... someone to resist the disaster and suppress the broken shadow of this land."

"My hometown is on the other side, but my grave is here."

"'Shadow of Calamity'... I did it, I really killed them..."

"And you, you, suddenly appeared and disturbed my atoning sleep."

"You...are the new Shadow of Disaster..."

"..."

Mordred's words stopped abruptly. He then raised the scarlet sword high again, and dark red light quickly emerged and circulated around him, flashing with a deep and dark light.

The dark gold in his eyes disappeared and was stained by the red of the other pupil. At the same time, the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook violently, and something was about to break out of the ground.

"——Roar!" A huge roar suddenly resounded on the battlefield.

The lingering sound hovered above everyone's heads, and Luo Xiu saw at the same time that the remains of the giant beast under Mordred's feet were rising from the ground like a hill!

Dragon skeleton! Luo Xiu had already seen clearly where the huge beast's remains belonged.

Those are the bones of a giant dragon! It's just that there is no trace of flesh and blood left. What is attached and flowing on the terrifying white skeleton is Mordred's scarlet spirituality. It is the blood that supports the "resurrection" of the dragon skeleton, and Mordred is the dragon. The heart of the corpse.

The dragon's skeleton spread out its dozens of meters long bone wings, rising air flowed around it, and flew slowly and steadily towards the sky.

Mordred stood at the position of the dragon's head, and the original golden lines of his armor were gradually turning into bottomless pitch black.

After a moment, he raised the scarlet sword high, and a dark and rich crimson mist quickly filled the air around him.

"--roar!!!"

The skeleton dragon suddenly raised its head and let out a deafening roar to the sky.

It flew extremely fast, and made a terrifying hunting sound when it cut through the air. As for Mordred, who stood firmly on the dragon's head, he also completed the first "ancient inheritance" skill chant.

The rich crimson mist quickly spread outwards and gathered over the battlefield, forming a surging blood-red cloud.

The sound of rolling thunder gradually emerged from the blood cloud. The next moment, dozens of red thunders entwined with fine electric light crashed down from mid-air!

--boom! Boom boom! The lightning strike accurately hit the position where Luo Xiu was standing, but Luo Xiu, who saw a thunder pool on the ground, quickly avoided the bombardment.

The "Shadow Apostles" behind him also evacuated to avoid being blocked by the red thunder and losing all escape routes.

--boom! Boom boom! Lightning flashes fell from the sky one after another, accompanied by the roar of the bone dragon and the violent sound of flapping wings, chasing the steps of all the intruders to avoid.

Mordred still held his sword high, looking down at the fleeing enemies below with cold eyes.

And the spirituality he instilled into the sword continued to transform into violent meteorite thunder, bombarding every inch of land on the battlefield indiscriminately.

——Boom, boom, boom! Along with the roar of thunder, the dust and sand on the battlefield were raised high by the thunder and fire, making the entire battlefield turbid.

The visibility was gradually decreasing, and the blinding yellow sand was disrupting everyone's vision. Only Mordred, the "Ride of Exile" hovering high in the sky with a dragon skeleton, could clearly overlook the entire battlefield.

Suddenly, Mordred's sight was attracted by a dark figure on the battlefield.

After wandering around to avoid lightning strikes and carefully observing Mordred, the "Ride of Exile" above, Luo Xiu stopped.

Seeing this, Mordred raised the sword again, the scarlet on the blade flashing continuously, and all the scattered red thunder suddenly disappeared and converged towards the center of Luo Xiu's location.

The blood cloud above his head was still rolling, the thunder roared for a long time, and Luo Xiu also completed a new prayer at the same time:

"——The spirit of 'illusion'! The guardian of the illusion, the king who cast illusion as a shield."

"——I pray for you to come!"

"..."

——Boom! Countless scarlet thunders struck from the sky, submerging Luo Xiu's tiny figure in the raised sand and dust.

But at the same time, the golden light flowed from the origin, and the countless red thunders quickly dispersed to the surroundings, like running water washing on the smooth stone surface.

"The guardian of illusion" Amber, descended in the illusion at the moment before the thunder fell!

The round shield of the illusion infused with the spirituality of "holy light" resisted all the strikes of the scarlet thunder, and Luo Xiu's figure was hidden behind Amber, and was unharmed under a round of thunder.

"——Amber!"

The "False Guardian" made a low voice, and the arm of His left hand, which was filled with gray mist, was immediately infiltrated with mottled scarlet color, "dissolving" the spiritual belonging contained in the red thunder.

That was "flame", the "flame" attribute with extreme purity and corrosive power. Luo Xiu had identified the damage type of the red thunder.

Before that, while Luo Xiu was wandering and avoiding the lightning strikes from Mordred, he had also completed the detection of the "Exiled Rider" in the sky.

Just as Luo Xiu had predicted before, "Exiled Rider" Mordred, although he retained most of his sanity, his humanity worn out by the long river of time from the Age of Gods to the present, and his soul bound and eroded by long-term loneliness, made Mordred no longer be regarded as a "human", but as a demon, as a monster with a "threat level" definition.

"Exiled Knight" Mordred, his threat level is "Mad +" level, level 43. If divided according to the current extraordinary rank, he is a "saint" who has just reached the "fifth destiny" realm!

His various attributes are crushing compared to other "shadow apostles" with three destiny, and even Luo Xiu with four destiny, and his highest two invisible attributes are "strength" and "divinity".

In other words, this is the only enemy with a higher "divinity" attribute than Luo Xiu who has encountered head-on!

This is a bad situation, which means that Luo Xiu's two major control skills, "Eye of the Abyss" and "Imprisonment of Evil Temple", cannot work on Mordred.

Luo Xiu once speculated that the normal strength of "Exiled Knight" Mordred would not be too far behind King Isol's other national knights, and should have been at most the level of "fourth destiny".

However, out of respect for the hidden mission "Exile of Destruction" and its "hell" level mission difficulty, Luo Xiu still made sufficient preparations before entering this "exile land" to face the once exiled national knight.

In Luo Xiu's mission list, there is another mission, which is an important reference standard for Luo Xiu.

——Hidden mission "Dusk and Night"! The mission that requires the destruction of the entire "Blood of Thorns" allows Luo Xiu to make final preparations according to the configuration of facing the "Lord of Blood Sacrifice".

"Fortunately... I went through a lot of twists and turns before summoning and contracting the "False Guardian". It turned out to be the right choice..."

Luo Xiu thought with some relief, and the only existence in the field that could compete head-on with "Mordred" was his newly contracted god, "False Guardian" Amber!

……

"——Roar!!!"

The roar of the skeleton dragon echoed above the fierce wind in the sky.

When he realized that the red lightning he had dropped was completely blocked by the new enemy that suddenly appeared, Mordred's face under his feather helmet suddenly became ferocious.

"New... new shadow of disaster..."

Mordred murmured, and the scarlet light on the blade of his greatsword became more and more frantic, and the thunder in the blood cloud above the sky became more and more deafening.

The next moment, the skeleton dragon rushed towards Luo Xiu's position. Mordred, who was above the dragon head, had the blade in his hand wrapped with fine scarlet lightning, dragging a long scarlet sword trail, and then slashed towards the position of the "False Guardian" and Luo Xiu.

In this attack, Mordred and the diving dragon, like a giant sword with the power of breaking the army, dived towards Luo Xiu in a straight flight trajectory.

Before Mordred's attack arrived, the "illusion guardian" also changed the form of "illusion guardian". The round shield overflowing with golden light suddenly turned into a golden phantom, and then into a city wall emitting golden light.

"Illusion barrier"! This is the illusion form with the maximum shield value that the "illusion guardian" can conjure!

——Boom! !!! !!!

In the next moment, like thunder from the sky, the scarlet light burning the earth flashed one after another, and the thunder from the sky suddenly landed on the illusion barrier, making the sight of the "shadow apostles" who were watching from a distance around them instantly occupied by the overflowing crimson.

The red thunder heavily bombarded the position where Luo Xiu was, and Mordred, who was driving the dragon's skeleton, also swung his sword and slashed after a moment!

——Boom! !!! !!!

When the great sword wrapped in scarlet light struck the barrier, the origin of the confrontation actually made a sound like an avalanche.

Yellow sand immediately rose into the sky, engulfing Mordred, the "false guardian" Amber, and Luo Xiu.

……

When all the "Holy Abyss" apostles finally regained their sight, they only saw the diffuse yellow sand and the vague figures in it.

"My Lord... what kind of existence is fighting with my Lord..."

"That is... our trial...?"

"..."

Countless doubtful, puzzled, and awed voices began to slowly emerge from the depths of everyone's heart.

At this moment, these apostles who served the "Holy Abyss" just watched from afar, and they could only do so much.

Now, at least now... that was not a battle they could intervene in.

Everyone understood this very well.

The apostles of the "Holy Abyss", their anxious eyes, gathered at the center of the previous explosion.

At this time, the dust that rose into the sky had just dissipated, and the figures fighting fiercely in it reappeared.

Suddenly, a figure wearing gray mist armor rose into the sky.

Behind him, a golden wing suddenly spread out.

That is the "Lord", that is the figure of "Shura"!

……
