The knight in the abyss

Chapter 198 Pakos' Invitation

"Transformation? Is that why he is so powerful?" Lancelot was still worried about not being able to defeat Enrique, and asked after hearing the words, "What exactly is the dark guard?"

"When a paladin completely betrays the sacred oath he once made, he can be transformed into a dark guard through a series of evil rituals such as sacrificing innocent creatures, renewing the dark oath, signing a contract with powerful demons, etc. "The succubus paladin glanced at Lancelot, "His original skills, magic spells, and auras used to fight evil will all be transformed into versions used to spread evil and destruction, but this will not gain additional power. In addition to acting from now on, I no longer have to care about the constraints of morality."

"Well, it seems that his own strength is so strong." Lancelow shrugged.

"He is simply the opposite of you." Karaline sighed to Helotesia, "You turned out to be a succubus, and he was a beloved paladin. You sought self-salvation, but he went downhill Your former master sent him to hunt you down, and I am afraid he also appreciated the irony in it."

"His strength is indeed very strong. If I were to fight alone, I would definitely not be his opponent." Elotesia looked at everyone apologetically, "I'm really sorry, it's all because of me that you provoked such a dangerous enemy ..."

"It's just a fallen human being. To save you, I even dared to go to the six-armed snake. Of course, she was seriously injured at the time..." Lancelot joked, and then his face became very serious. Don't have any weird ideas. We help you because we recognize your choices and your experiences. To some extent, helping you is helping ourselves."

"When I first embarked on this path, I had anticipated all the difficulties, but I never expected to receive so much support." The succubus paladin had a complicated look on his face, "Thank you very much .”

"You're welcome." Lancelow waved his hand, "As for that dark guard, I haven't finished with him yet, I believe he won't give up so easily. Next time we meet, we must compete with him and prove that I am the strongest human knight in the abyss."

"Grumbling."

Brutal protested with his stomach, interrupting Lancelot's rhetoric.

"We've been exercising vigorously since we woke up this morning." The dwarf looked at everyone in embarrassment, "The innkeeper seemed to mention breakfast, right?"

"That's right, I heard that too." Cora echoed, "Does our room rate include breakfast?"

"Not included." Lancelot spread his hands helplessly, "But our wallet is already heavy enough."

"This is the attitude of life." The halfling laughed, and was the first to walk to the door of the room, which was the only way to the restaurant.

There are others in the restaurant.Before Lancelot's figure appeared at the corner of the stairs, the noise below seemed to be a farce of a bar fight, but when he sat on the chair, the surrounding was eerily quiet, and their table of knives and forks The crackle of hitting the plate became the only sound in the air.

People looked at Lancelot with awe.The hotel guards who were in charge of moving the corpses had already spread the scene of what they saw.Everyone also saw dozens of corpses carried down from upstairs, which was the most irrefutable evidence, silently explaining the strength of this tall human knight.

In this weird atmosphere, everyone finished their breakfast as quickly as possible. Ten minutes later, a group of people pushed open a heavy door on the second floor of the hotel and walked into a room with no windows at all.

This is the office of Pacos the 'Immortal', the former Lord of Blight.A chandelier hung on the ceiling, burning with blue magic flames; on the surrounding walls stood many bookshelves and cabinets, filled with scrolls of dubious materials, all kinds of magical items with strange auras, and many The skull of an unknown creature.

Those skulls might have once belonged to one of Pacos' enemies, but are now in the innkeeper's collection.

Or a cup.

"Welcome to my office." The innkeeper sat behind a desk in the center of the room that was a little too big for his current size.Lancelot noticed that there were no chairs or sofas in the room, and all who came to see him had to stand.

"First let me tell you a piece of news. According to those gnolls, a few days ago a rumor began to appear in the Beggar's Deep, saying that a succubus will bring a very rich human knight to Moglondar. The succubus has a black Short hair and red pupils, and the human has a height of 6 and a half feet, black hair and blue eyes." Pacos tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table, "Sounds familiar, Is not it?"

"Then how rich is the rumored me that these guys dare to attack your hotel?" Lancelot asked skillfully.

"No matter how rich they are, it's not enough to explain their stupidity." Pacos shrugged, "Those gnolls argue that they are controlled by a guy in black armor, and they wouldn't dare to do such a thing if they had a hundred guts. But those are obviously ridiculous excuses made up to avoid being sent to the slave pen, and who would believe them?"

"That guy is indeed an enemy of ours." Lancelot didn't intend to hide this matter, after all, the man in front of him also saw the knight in black armor. "But I believe he will not come to trouble again in a short time."

"But my reputation has been seriously damaged." The halfling boss jumped onto the table, "You must compensate me."

"What reputation? The guests don't have to worry about being attacked in the room?" Brutal interjected suspiciously, but Lancelot knew that the dwarf must have done it on purpose.

"Maybe I didn't express what I mean clearly." Pacos looked at Lancelot, "I invite you to be my representatives to participate in the search for the whereabouts of the Eye of Tharizdun. You are not in a hurry to get the map and then leave This city? As long as you successfully find the artifact, you will definitely be able to get the map as soon as possible."

"We have no objection." Lancelot nodded, "But what about you? What can you get out of it?"

"Do you plan to settle in this city for a long time?"

"No, we don't have that plan."

"Then it has nothing to do with you." Pacos sat back in his chair. "How is it? Any other questions?"

"There are many more, such as where do we go to find the Eye of Sarrizdun?"
