Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 741 World Choice
Only in that way can we win a chance of winning!

"Time..."

Enzo sighed and flew away with fluttering wings. For him now, the most lacking thing is time.

……

At the same time, within the Kingdom of Tucker.

The kingdom ravaged by war is full of refugees and bandits. The sudden death of the old king Ander quickly plunged the peaceful kingdom of Tucker into chaos. In order to win the throne, all the kings fought as much as possible.

Southern Territory, Eagle City.

As the southern border city of Eagle City, it has always been regarded as the southern barrier, and it is also the first line of defense for the nobles of the southern border against the fourth prince Anthony. The cliffs like blades, combined with the towering city walls, are enough to withstand thousands of troops.

Of course, no matter how steep the city defense is, it can only stop ordinary soldiers.

For the truly strong, even a thousand-meter cliff can't stop their footsteps in the slightest.

At this time, above the eagle wall.

A few months ago, Black, who had just been appointed as the lord of Eagle City, looked at the plain below with serious eyes, with an inexplicable gleam in his eyes.

In the distance, the land was in a mess.

Gusts of cold wind swept across the ground, blowing away the gray mist, and the battlefield where dead bodies piled up like a mountain was full of oppressive atmosphere, and ghostly figures were moving through the gray mist.

"There are more and more monsters!"

As a great knight, Black has eagle-eyed vision. Through the gray-white mist, he can clearly see monsters wandering in the wilderness, looking for fresh flesh to devour.

It was a humanoid creature, generally more than three meters in size, covered with black scales, with scarlet eyes, cruel and bloodthirsty, very much like the legendary ancient creature ghoul.

Looking at the monster in the gray mist, Black's face was serious.

No one knows where this group of ghouls came from, and no one knows whether the appearance of this monster is related to the recent changes in the scarlet world.

"Could it be... everything has something to do with that red moon?"

Black muttered to himself, couldn't help raising his head, and looked at the sky above the crimson moon covered by dark clouds.

In recent months, the scarlet world has experienced drastic changes one after another.

Not only the territory of the Tucker Kingdom fell into chaos due to the war, but the surrounding kingdoms even experienced previous events, and even the more distant Bingxin Kingdom was destroyed and disappeared in one day, reduced to the dust of history.

And all of this starts with the appearance of the red moon.

About three months ago, a crimson moon suddenly appeared above the sky, and a strange scene appeared in the eyes of the living beings in the entire scarlet world. Immediately afterwards, all kinds of terrible disasters followed one after another.

Mountains and rivers collapsed, black water swept across!
The appearance of that red moon seemed to symbolize the end of the scarlet world and the beginning of all disasters. In the Kingdom of Tucker, Black was considered a strong man, but he had no clue about what happened recently.

Even the entire Tucker kingdom was terrified of the appearance of the red moon.

"Master Black, the Duke of the South has issued an order to report to the main city of the South immediately."

Suddenly a voice came from behind.

Blake turned his head and saw a southern knight, half kneeling in front of him, conveying the order of the Duke of the South to himself.

"Going to Blue Sky City?"

Black frowned slightly, with a hint of confusion on his face. Blue Sky City is the main city in the southern border of the Tucker Kingdom, and it is also the territory directly under the Duke of the Southern Territory.

Today's Tucker Kingdom is in the midst of war.

As the southern barrier, Eagle City is the first line of defense against the army of the four princes. As the lord of this place, Black is responsible for commanding tens of thousands of troops. His responsibility is very important, and he can even affect the situation of the Kingdom of Tucker.

But now, the Duke of the Southern Territory suddenly issued an edict.

This made Black very puzzled, but as a knight, since he had sworn allegiance to the Duke of the South, Black was unwilling to violate his oath, so he had no choice but to go to Blue Sky City.

Three days later, Blue Sky City.

As the hinterland of the southern border, the defense of Blue Sky City is very steep. The [-]-meter-high city wall is difficult for even knights to climb. In addition, the black iron bows and crossbows ready to go on the city wall are enough to make the enemy fearful.

Not far away, Blake pulls the reins.

The guard soldiers behind him also stopped along with Black, looking at the blue sky city in the distance, their hearts throbbed one after another.

On the city wall, an elite soldier is waiting in battle.

"what happened?"

Black frowned slightly, with a trace of solemnity on his face. He didn't know exactly what happened in Blue Sky City, but just seeing the guards on the city wall, he knew that something big must happen.

So much so that Blue Sky City was so on guard.

You know, when the third prince Andre was assassinated, and the southern border lost the prince who had been supporting him, the situation in Blue Sky City was not so urgent, and there was even a sense of panic.

"Let's talk about the advanced city."

Black shook his head, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and was about to enter Blue Sky City with his guards.

But at this moment, a smear of black suddenly appeared in the sky.

Startled, Blake couldn't help raising his head to look at the sky, but saw a black vortex appearing above the sky.

Immediately afterwards, the black river water that seemed to be able to swallow everything surged directly onto the ground.

"Blake, get into town!"

Just when Black was in a daze, a familiar voice came from Blue Sky City. Black looked over and found that it was a great knight who was better than him.

Immediately, Black didn't hesitate anymore, and led his men to ride into Blue Sky City.

Boom!

As the city gate was locked, Blake's heart suddenly relaxed. Although he didn't know what the black vortex that appeared above the sky represented, that terrible sense of oppression was always shrouded in Blake's heart.

"What the hell is going on, Jack?"

On the blue sky wall, the most elite soldiers in the southern region were waiting in battle. Blake looked up at the sky in shock, and asked Jack beside him.

The great knight Jack shook his head, his face full of dignity.

Not long after, the vortex above the sky disappeared.

But the dark creatures that came out of the vortex stayed outside the blue sky city. Seeing the dense army of darkness, Black couldn't help but gasped, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

Above the sky, the red moon is like blood.

The crimson light spread, dispelling the surrounding dark clouds. With the spread of the red moon, the dark army below also turned into a black torrent and launched an attack towards the blue sky city.

Blake gasped.

He didn't know what these dark creatures represented, but as a great knight, Blake could clearly feel the horror of the monsters in front of him, which was a kind of fear from the depths of his soul.

"Soldiers! Don't be afraid!"

Suddenly, a muffled voice sounded, and Blake looked over, and saw the Duke of the Southern Territory appearing on the city wall at some point.

The old man who is over half a hundred years old seems to be in high spirits at this moment.

The Duke of the Southern Territory was wearing golden armor. His body, which was supposed to be old and unbearably old, exuded a strong aura at this moment, and his eyes released a luster like new life.

"This is……"

Black's pupils shrank for a while, and a certain idea suddenly appeared in his mind. He couldn't help but feel throbbing, and murmured, "Paladin!!"

Scarlet world, the limit of the knight's road.

In Black's concept, paladins are a level that only exists in legends, and there are only a few words about it in history. The appearance of every paladin means that the mainland will usher in a turmoil.

In history, all the existences that can complete the great unification are paladins.

Black never imagined that, according to the rumors, the old Duke of the Southern Region was actually a paladin. If this is the case, then what happened to the chaos in the kingdom before.

The Kingdom of Tucker advocates force and has always respected the strong.

The combat power of a paladin is as powerful as a god to a mortal. If the Duke of the South Realm is really a paladin, then he can completely choose any prince to take the throne by virtue of his own powerful strength.

Even directly become the king himself!

You must know that King Ander, who was able to suppress the Kingdom of Tucker, was nothing more than a shining knight, equivalent to a second-order life form, while a paladin was a third-order life form, and there was an essential difference between the two.

At this moment, Black's mind was in turmoil.

But before he had time to react, the army of dark creatures in the distance had already launched a fierce attack on Blue Sky City. The dark creatures at the front were a group of skeleton soldiers, with dark flames burning in their skulls.

"Meet the enemy!"

With the shout of the Duke of the South, the battle officially began. The soldiers on the city wall controlled the ballista and shot arrows downward, but they still couldn't stop the dark creatures.

Not long after, the army of darkness had approached the city.

The [-]-meter-high city wall may be a natural danger that is difficult for ordinary people to cross, but the dark creatures trample on each other, forming a hillside, and the top skeleton soldiers rushed to the city wall.

When Blake saw this, a trace of determination appeared on his face.

Although Black's mind was in chaos at the moment, and he didn't know what he was facing, but as a loyalist of the Duke of the South, Black must protect his monarch as much as possible.

This is his belief as a knight.

What's more, in the depths of Black's heart, when facing dark creatures, he doesn't feel too much fear, because he has seen the strength of the Duke of the South not long ago.

A paladin, an existence almost like a god.

Even if the dark creatures in front of him are menacing, in Black's eyes, they cannot pose a threat to the paladins. You must know that in history, every paladin is enough to destroy a country by one person.

However, after the battle started, there was a throbbing in Black's heart.

He underestimated the strength of the dark creatures in front of him. The skeleton soldiers who rushed to the city wall were not only not afraid of death, but also possessed extremely powerful strength. Just an ordinary skeleton soldier had a fighting power no less than that of a knight.

"Could it be...these monsters are all existences beyond knights?"

Black had such a thought in his heart, and suddenly felt a cold feeling rushing straight to his forehead.

"What are you thinking!"

Suddenly, a violent shout from beside him interrupted Blake's daze, and his friend Jack pulled out the cross sword from his waist and swung it violently.

Stab la la!
In an instant, a burst of sword energy attacked violently, killing several skeleton soldiers approaching, leaving Black stunned even more.

"Legend...a legend?"

Black froze in place. The strength that Jack showed just now has reached the legendary level. This is undoubtedly another bomb-like news for Black, and he just felt in a trance in his mind.

As a good friend for many years, Blake is very familiar with Jack.

Both of them graduated from the same Knight Academy, and compared with Jack, Black is far superior in terms of talent and perseverance. Although both of them eventually became great knights, their combat effectiveness is very different.

Black once sparred with Jack, and in just three strokes, Black won.

For Black, Jack is not a good knight.

However, now, the opponent has shown the strength of a legendary knight, which is the realm that Black has dreamed of all his life.

"In the end what happened?"

Black couldn't help asking, deep in his heart, he still couldn't believe that Jack became a knight through his own efforts, and that there should be some secrets behind the other party's promotion, and even the Duke of the South's paladin.

"Fight, Black."

Next to him, Jack shook his head and said solemnly, "If we can survive, you will also become a legend, or even a knight of a higher level. This is the power that the world bestows upon us!"

"The power of the world gift?"

Black's pupils shrank for a while, and a strange expression appeared on his face. He keenly accepted the important information from Jack's mouth. Whether it was the Duke of the South or Jack, the promotion was due to some kind of power.

And this kind of power, in Jack's mouth, is called a gift from the world!

Before Black could ask more questions, the dark creatures under the city wall had already rushed to the top of the city wall. The soldiers of the southern border fought hard, and the two sides fell into a bitter battle. Only then did Black realize that all the soldiers of the southern border present had reached the level of knights. Realm, even more like Jack, is already a legendary knight.

Obviously, this is all due to the power of the world's gifts.

"Live and become a legend!"

In Black's eyes, there was a flash of fire. Becoming a legendary knight was his lifelong desire, and it seemed to be close at hand at this moment. As long as he received the power of the world, he could get his wish.

But the premise is that he can survive this battle.

The invasion of the dark army plunged Blue Sky City into chaos. Only then did Black understand why the Duke of the Southern Region summoned him, probably to resist these dark creatures that came from nowhere.

At the same time, the reason why the world gave power to the Duke of the South may also be related to these dark creatures.

　Recently, due to personal reasons, the update has been interrupted. I can only say sorry to everyone, and the normal update will resume tomorrow.
