Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 300 The Light Killer

Seeing Grossel who seemed to be in nostalgia, Ember slowly asked:

"You or I?"

Grossel hummed:
"Let me come."

He hoped to personally confirm the status of the two silver knights.

If they were alive, they might still have a chance to negotiate.

If they are dead, they become monsters similar to those rotting giants.

Then, he will personally send them a ride and give them the last decency.

Surrounded by the strong wind, the four-meter-high gray-blue giants climbed up layer by layer, approaching the main entrance of the 'Giant King's Court'.

Grossel walked up the stone stairs step by step, and came to the area near the main entrance at the top of the stairs.

And it wasn't until this time that the two silver knight guards outside the main gate of the Giant King's Court finally responded.

They turned their heads, and the orange light behind the visor flickered twice, as if confirming the identity of the visitor.

Snapped!
Groselle stopped at the last step and did not step onto the platform where the main entrance of the King's Court of Giants was located.

The two guards stared closely at the giant in front of them, but they didn't make a move. The orange light behind their cheeks flickered slightly.

Grossel didn't speak, his eyes were full of uncontrollable sadness.

He should have thought of it earlier.

More than 3000 years have passed, how could they survive to the present with only Sequence 3?

They were once demigods, heroes, noble warriors who guarded the court of giants.But now, they are nothing more than puppets controlled by some residual power.

They can't think, can't leave, they can only guard the gate behind them like sculptures for thousands of years.

But they still didn't do anything, just looked at the giant in front of them with a little confusion.

Now they are like dolls who have been programmed, and the preset program tells them to kill all intruders.But another preset program told them that the giant is not an intruder.

At this moment, Grossel raised his palm slowly and firmly, as if saying goodbye to them.

And at the same time, a silvery white gap suddenly cracked on the forehead of the silver knight holding the giant axe, and countless sharp silvery rays burst out from his body.In the blink of an eye, the silver knight was instantly cut into countless pieces by the sharp silver light bursting out of his body.

On the other side, even though he had lost his sanity, the fighting instinct still allowed the other silver knight holding a long sword to take advantage of the light to hide, hide his figure, and launched a counterattack against Groselle at the same time.

It's just that compared with them controlled by the 'preset program', Grossel's movements are much faster!

While the Silver Knight took advantage of the light to hide, a huge sword that seemed to be condensed by the morning light appeared in Grossel's hands.Without the slightest hesitation, he decisively raised his giant sword and slashed down towards the seemingly blank area in front of him.

The bright morning light bloomed in an instant, and the tall giant hidden in the light finally couldn't hide himself anymore, fell powerlessly from the light, and was dominated by the huge sword that looked bulky but was extremely sharp exuding the light of morning light!
"Feel sorry."

Grossel murmured to himself slightly sadly, slowly but firmly walked over the corpses of the two silver knights, picked up the great sword left by the dead silver knight, and inserted it into the crack of the ground.

He lowered his body, stretched out his hands, and pressed against the tens of meters high main entrance.

Amidst the heavy rattling sound, the door with many golden nails slowly opened.

At this time, the high-altitude 'sun' jumped, and the entire 'Royal Court of Giants' was frozen in the orange-red evening light.The huge front door opened faster and faster, and the scene inside was gradually exposed to Ember's eyes.

A gray and white, covered with orange light, there are countless steps going up from behind the door, until it reaches the tallest and most magnificent giant king's residence. tower;
Giant statues carrying halberds and covered in iron-colored armor are lined up in front of different buildings, guarding the road leading to the residence of the gods.

Behind him, flames covered the Silver Knight's body, burning it to ashes in an instant.

Ember put away the ashes of the two silver knights, and asked strangely:

"Why are you so sure that there are still living giants in the Giant King's Court?"

Grossel looked at the embers that came to him, was silent for a long time, and said in a deep voice:
"The queen once taught us a secret technique that can prolong the lifespan of giants..."

Grossel paused for a while and didn't explain any more. He looked at the giant statue in front of him and said firmly:
"I'm still here."

"it is good."

Ember nodded and did not fight him.

click!
As Grossel approached, the giant statues on both sides suddenly moved.The halberds in the hands of the giant statues on both sides of them crossed each other, blocking their way.

The giant statues stood up slowly, their eyes bursting with orange light.

However, in the next second, sharp silver lights burst out from their bodies one after another, and a broken sound resounded from within.

clap clap clap!
The blooming 'silver flowers' continue to spread upwards, as if welcoming distinguished guests.

Any giant statues that tried to get up were destroyed one by one, while those that stood still remained intact.

Grossel passed through the broken or intact statues, and stepped onto the platform on the replacement.

Grossel looked at the palace ahead, and said in a low voice:
"Further ahead is the king's residence. Should we go straight ahead, or explore the surroundings first?"

His tone returned to calm, but he still couldn't hide his disappointment.

He no longer has any expectations about whether he can find a living giant in the Giant King's Court, but if he can, he still doesn't want to leave so soon.

Yes, he has his own selfishness.Because he knew that Ember's purpose was to open the gate to the giant king's palace and take something from it.

But in Grossel's view, opening that door itself may hide unimaginable dangers.

Before that, Grossel hopes to take a good look at this place again, because this may be his last exploration here, and his last homecoming...

Ember saw Grossel's entanglement, and took the initiative to say:

"We have plenty of time, and you can explore on your own terms."

"Thank you."

Grossell said hummingly, he made a little identification of the direction, and walked into the hall in front of the giant king's residence.

On the left side of the hall, there is a row of railings made of stone pillars. Beyond the railings are diffuse orange-red clouds. The light of dusk falls from the sky, reflecting the gently surging, endless dark blue in the distance, emitting The dark blue that made a clattering sound.

Grossel stood in front of the railing, staring at the deep blue ocean, his eyes a little out of focus.

"You used to stand here in a daze before, and you haven't made any progress after all these years."

Amidst the heavy footsteps, there was a nostalgic voice behind Grossel.

A huge figure was quickly outlined on the side of the giant king's palace. He was wearing silver full-body armor, and there were distinctive patterns on his arm armor. One was on the right side, blood-red in color, wrapped around his arm, and the other was on the left at the same position. , dotted with black patches.

He was nearly five meters tall, and what flashed behind his visor was not a deep red or orange light, but a real one-eyed vertical eye!
Grossel turned his head, the astonishment on his face quickly turned into surprise:

"Master Milgungen, are you still alive? I knew it, I knew there must be living giants in the royal court!"

"Alive?"

There was a momentary pause in the footsteps of 'Light Killer' Milgungen:
"Grossel, if you are here to find other giants, then you should give up as soon as possible. I am the only giant who can communicate in the entire giant court."

His tone was full of mockery, and he didn't know whether he was laughing at himself or Grossel's innocence.

"I……"

Grossel opened his mouth, his eyes quickly became lonely.

Milgungen stopped not far from Grossel and said in a low voice:
"I don't know why you disappeared suddenly back then, and I don't know why you only came back now."

"But for the sake of you being a guard of the royal court, leave as soon as possible, and don't disturb Lord Saslier's deep sleep."

"'Dark Angel' Saslier?"

There was a slight change in Grossel's eyes, he had heard this name from the ascetic Snowman before——

That is the king of angels of the ancient sun god, the former left hand of the god, the vice-king of heaven, and the leader of the king of angels.

Snowman was his friend, so even if he already knew that the giant king was killed by the ancient sun god, he would not attack Snowman.In Grosser's view, it was nothing more than an act of cowardice to blame Snowman for his beliefs.

But this does not mean that Grossel can accept all this calmly!
He would not be angry with Snowman, because Snowman was just an ordinary person, he just followed the times and chose the orthodox belief at that time.Snowman wasn't even born when the ancient sun god killed the giant king.

But if he is asked to believe in the ancient sun god, the real creator, or any one of the king of angels, this is unacceptable to Grossel!
He will not be angry with Snowman who believes in the ancient sun god, but he will never turn to the ancient sun god, because he is the enemy who killed the giant king!
But now, the former leader of the king's court hunters, the 'Light Killer' Mirgungen, who had received the blessing of the king himself, chose to serve the 'Dark Angel' Saslier after experiencing everything in person, and surrendered against their enemies!

What irony is this?
Grossel asked in a deep voice:
"Master Milgungen, have you betrayed the king?"

"betray?"

'Light Killer' Mirgungen's eyes narrowed, he suddenly raised the broadsword in his hand, and his voice was like thunder:

"Grossel, you are not qualified to evaluate my choice!"

Grossel also clenched the big sword in his hand, and said in a deep voice:

"He is not qualified to live in the king's house!"

The great sword in his hand came from the silver knight he killed at the main gate.

Grossel thought that although the two silver knights had been dead for a long time, they still fulfilled their duties and guarded the king's palace!

But now, Milkungen, the leader of all royal court hunters, has obviously reneged on his oath.He still guards the giant royal court, but the object he guards is no longer the king, but the enemy who once killed the king!
This is undoubtedly a kind of depravity, and Grossel cannot accept this kind of depravity!
He moved his gaze to the palace guarded by the giant knight——

It is the tallest and most magnificent building in the King's Court of Giants. The twilight light seems to have turned into substance, covering its surface, giving it a distinct sense of decay, giving people a feeling that dusk is ending and eternal night is coming.

It is flanked by a minaret on one side and a round tower on the other. The main entrance is opposite to each other. It is mainly gray and blue, and its height is far more than ten meters.

Three or four meters above the gate, on the left side of the crack, there is a dark hole, which is equivalent to an adult's fist.

It used to be the residence of the king, but now it is the enemy of the king who occupies it majestically!
"Why don't you do it?"

Milgungen pointed the broadsword at Grossel, and said coldly:
"As your leader, I will teach you another truth."

"If you don't have the awareness to kill the enemy, don't draw your sword!"

As soon as the words fell, Milgongen's figure disappeared instantly, leaving only a piece of silver in Grossel's vision!
His pupils shrank, and he instinctively raised the big sword in his hand to defend.

when!when!when!
The silver glow shone, and the sound of metal collisions reverberated.

Grossel struggled to resist Milgungen's attack, and the morning light around him was broken and scattered.

A series of sharp silver rays stood out in different places, trying their best to cut through the morning light barrier around Grossel, like insects struggling desperately in amber.

Dangdang!
At that time, the thin and sometimes thick silver light continued to emerge, making Grossel struggling to resist the continuous retreat.Even though he tried many times to hide in the light like Milgongen, every time he would be forced out of his position by the constantly emerging silver light.

Unlike Grossel who just became the 'Silver Knight' of Sequence 3, Milgungen, who has been immersed in the Silver Knight level for many years, is obviously much stronger than Grossel!

Dangdang!
In the continuous impact, Grossel's parry became more and more difficult, and his position was constantly forced back.

at last.

When the last silver light finally broke through Grossel's defense, the continuous silver light disappeared suddenly.

Mirgungen fell from the light with a bang, and knelt down on one knee. His breath was rapidly decaying, and his flesh and blood were rapidly aging, and the rot 'evaporated'.

Milgungen subconsciously looked outside the giant court. The human who was traveling with Grossel was standing in front of the last intact giant statue, waving a long sword.

In the continuous clicking sound, the statue collapsed and fell to the ground.

Milgungen looked at Grossel who was panting heavily not far away, with a gratified smile on the corner of his mouth, and said softly:

"Go to the hall of oath, there is the answer you are looking for."

In the orange light, the royal court full of vitality seemed to appear in front of his eyes again. In the frozen dusk, giants came and went, playing the lyre, playing the bone flute, doing gladiatorial fights, enjoying The delicacy of the people, life passed extremely slowly, and their king, sitting on a high throne, watched everything majestically.

After that time, it no longer existed, so he chose to follow the 'Dark Angel' Saslier.

Milgungen showed a smile on his face, opened his mouth, and shouted in a low voice:
"king……"

This 'royal court stalker' lowered his head, and the flesh and blood on his body 'evaporated', leaving only a huge white skeleton and the re-condensed silver light.
