The infinite journey of knights

Chapter 78 Herder Strikes Again (First order with more updates)
"Who?"

Looking at the long arrow beside him, Yatimu frowned, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the long arrow.

There, he saw a familiar figure.

It was a rather tall man, tall and straight, wearing a black armor.

But compared to the previous killer, the person in front of him didn't hide his appearance, so Yatim quickly recognized him.

"Mr. Herder."

Looking at the figure walking out in front of him, Yadimu was a little surprised: "Are you also here to attack me?"

From the appearance of Herder in front of him, one could see that the visitor was not kind.

Besides, as early as the last time Yatimu challenged, he had already offended him.

It is just a normal thing to suffer revenge from the other party.

Yatimu has long been mentally prepared for this.

But even so, the occasion in front of him was really too unique.

At the edge of the academy, Herder walked slowly from the front.

"Yatimu!"

He said, his voice was very dull and hoarse: "After the last competition, I have been looking for opportunities to fight with you again."

"If you just want to challenge me, then I'm always welcome."

Yatimu spoke softly, and said calmly: "But Mr. Herder's current appearance does not look like a simple competition."

"Competition?"

Hearing Yatimu's words, a cruel smile appeared on Herder's face: "No, I want your life!"

After the words fell, he rushed directly towards Yatimu.

His speed was very fast, and he arrived in front of Yatimu in the blink of an eye. The golden long sword in his hand drew a golden afterimage in midair, and slashed down towards Yatimu fiercely.

boom!
The sound of gold and iron intertwined sounded again.

After one blow, the two retreated separately.

Yatimu thought about it and realized something was wrong.

"Your strength."

He looked at Herder in front of him with doubts on his face.

Yatimu had tried it in Heldby before, and he knew the opponent's strength very well.

However, just now, the strength used by the other party was far more than before. Although it was still not as good as him, it also greatly exceeded the level that a normal knight apprentice should have.

What happened to the other party?
Yatimu couldn't help but flash this thought in his mind.

"Feel it?"

Seeming to feel Yatimu's surprise, Herder had a sneer on his face: "I'm no longer the same as before."

"You can no longer be my opponent!"

While speaking, he charged forward, the long sword in his hand fell again, and rushed towards Yadimu's body fiercely.

"Feel it!"

In the blink of an eye, he came to Yatimu: "This is the power of a real knight!"

Boom!

A huge pothole appeared on the ground in front of him.

The terrifying power between the two is transmitted, even if it brings up the sword wind, it is extraordinarily violent, and even the power of just a casual blow can cause huge damage.

"The power of a true knight?"

Using force with one hand, he casually knocked Herder back. Looking at Herder in front of him, Yatimu shook his head: "No, you are not the power of a real knight."

As a knight, Yatim himself knows the power of a knight very well.

However, in front of Herder's body, he did not feel the life energy that belonged exclusively to the knight.

The opponent's strength is indeed very strong, regardless of speed or strength, it exceeds the level that a knight apprentice should have, but there is no trace of life energy.

It feels very weird.

And the opponent's state is also somewhat special.

At least in Yatimu's view, Herder's state is obviously not right.

The opponent's aura is too chaotic, and there is a lack of discipline in the actions, which has a big problem.

"what happened?"

Farther away, Tina was lurking in the corner, watching the fight between the two of Yatimu at this moment, she couldn't help showing surprise on her face: "After taking the potion, Herder's strength should have surpassed the opponent's." , why haven't you been able to take down your opponent?"

"Is there any problem with the effect of the potions you gave?"

"impossible."

Oli also frowned, feeling a little puzzled: "I prepared the potion myself. It's hard to say what the sequelae will be, but the effect is absolutely fine."

"Taking those medicines, even though it will bring serious side effects, they will maintain a strong power for quite a period of time."

"With Herder's previous strength, let alone a knight apprentice after taking the potion, even if a real knight stands in front of him, he may not be able to take him down."

"Then what's going on in front of you?"

Looking at the scene in front of her, Tina couldn't help asking again.

Following her line of sight, I saw that Herder was at a disadvantage at the moment.

He and Yatimu are still fighting, but their strength has been gradually exhausted, and their movements have become sluggish.

Looking at this scene, Ollie was speechless, and even he began to doubt himself.

Is there really something wrong with the medicine?
"No, it's impossible!"

During the confrontation, Herder let out a roar.

He looked at Yatim in disbelief: "I'm already a knight, why are you stronger than me!"

"knight?"

Yatimu looked at Herder with some pity: "No, you are not."

Although I don't know why Herder thinks he has become a knight, one thing is certain is that he was probably deceived by someone.

As for the cheater, he must be the opponent of Aishus.

As the voice fell, Yatimu took a step forward.

In his hand, the pale golden long sword began to shine slowly.

Life energy is instilled at this moment and integrated into this long sword, making the long sword at this moment glow with a new brilliance, which is extremely bright.

Afterwards, Yatim stepped forward, and the long sword collided with the sword in Herder's hand.

With a soft bang, brand new changes began to appear.

In Herder's hands, the golden long sword he was holding was cut off abruptly, and even the best materials could not withstand the impact of life energy.

Herder himself also flew out directly.

The life energy remaining in the long sword poured into his body, injuring him all of a sudden, causing him to fall to the ground, unable to get up.

Looking at this scene, the two secretly watching suddenly changed color.

"Damn!"

Looking at the movement in front of her, Tina's face changed drastically. At this moment, she finally realized what happened: "Life energy! He has awakened the life seed and became a real knight!"

"No wonder Herder is not his opponent!"

On the side, Oli didn't speak, but his face was quite ugly at the moment, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"cough"

Heavy coughing sounded everywhere.

Knocked down to the ground, Herder looked weakly at Yatim in front of him, feeling the unique breath of life energy, and his face was full of unwillingness: "So, this is."

"I don't see why, Mr. Herder, you think you've succeeded in the promotion."

Then Yatim's voice sounded.

After knocking Herder down, he put away the long sword in his hand, looked at Herder in front of him and said softly: "But I think, you must have been deceived by someone to behave like this." look."

"Now that you understand the fact of being deceived, you can solve the misunderstanding if you think about it."

"Of course, if you still want to challenge me in the future, I welcome it at any time."

After speaking, he stood there, quietly looking at Herder's appearance.

Although he had two fights with Herder, Yatimu didn't have any bad feelings towards Herder himself.

The other party is not a villain himself, at most he is a bit withdrawn and arrogant in character.

For such a person, Yatimu didn't want to kill him unless necessary.

Of course, not killing killers is one thing, but those killers are another.

Judging from the situation just now, there is a high probability that the killer who appeared in Aishus' residence before has some kind of connection with Herder.

Yatimu can bypass Herder with his life, but he must find those who hide behind Herder.

Yatim thought so.

It was only later that he realized something was wrong.

On the flat ground in front of him, Herder was lying there, and blood suddenly flowed from his mouth and nose.

Not only that, but his face was also very stiff, looking like he was dead.

died?

This thought flashed in Yatimu's mind, and then he hurried forward and checked it carefully.

Then, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Because at this moment, Herder's heartbeat is gone.

No matter how you check, the only result you can get is this result.

Herder in front of him was indeed dead.

But how could this be?
Yatim was a little puzzled.

In that blow just now, he did use his life energy, thereby cutting off Herder's weapon and wounding it.

But he didn't use all his strength, and the purpose was just to stop Herder's movements, and he didn't want to continue fighting with him.

In terms of the physical fitness of the knight apprentice, how could that injury be directly fatal?
Yatim didn't understand.

But he didn't understand, but the two of Tina who were lurking in the distance knew it very well.

"It's the backlash of the boiling blood potion that appeared"

Oli said in a low voice, his face looked a bit ugly: "The potion of boiling blood will cause great damage to the body, especially the heart, but it's just not visible at ordinary times."

"But just now, that guy Herder had a lot of emotional ups and downs, and his mental state was not good. In addition, the remaining life energy in his body matched the damage caused before."

Simply put, it was an accident.

In order to enhance Herder's strength and give him the illusion that he has been promoted to a knight, Ollie and the others added a lot of ingredients to Herder's knight potion.

Those medicines will make Herder stronger, but they will also bring about a strong backlash.

But if this is the case, according to the normal situation, it will at most paralyze Herder's body in the end, so that he won't really die.

But just now, Herder had just fought a battle, and learned that he was deceived, and his mental and physical condition was very poor.

Coupled with the impact of the life energy left by Yatimu just now.
The combination of several factors directly cost Herder his life.
