Chapter 51
A huge gap that almost cut off the scar-faced knight suddenly emerged, infected by the power of death, and almost half-rotten reddish-brown blood spattered out.

Scarface's eyes widened, as if he wanted to look at his wound, but he had already lost this opportunity.

The wound to which the power of death was attached was soaked by the death mist, and it quickly rotted and pus flowed out, and patches of dark brown pus flowed out.

The flesh and blood around the wound also lost its vitality in an instant, completely necrotic, lost any possibility of healing, and could only be removed.

In an instant, the scar-faced knight was completely cut off from the erosion of the power of death, and his body decayed at an extremely abnormal speed.

After feeling a little bit of the merit points gained from killing a few bandits, Yi Hua nodded in satisfaction.

"This scar-faced knight has a problem..."

Feeling that the other party was exactly the same as the rest of the bandits, and the rapidly declining life energy fluctuations in his body, Yi Hua's eyes flashed doubts.

In just over ten seconds, the life energy fluctuations of the few people dropped to the level of ordinary people.

Logically speaking, even after a knight dies, the life force in his body will only slowly weaken, and will not drop to the level of an ordinary person in a short period of time.

This also led to the phenomenon that the remains of higher-level knights did not rot for many years.

The power in the bodies of the bandits in front of them dissipated instantly after they died. This situation obviously does not match the situation of a knight who has become a knight through normal cultivation.

Knight breathing is often derived from the family secrets of noble families, or from the imperial military.

Judging from the vulgar speech, behavior, and attire of these bandits, they are obviously not nobles, let alone members of the Imperial Knights.

Unless, they obtained the power with the help of external force.

Yi Hua, who knew that he could not directly get the real situation based on what he saw in front of him, turned his eyes to Lucien who was rescued by him not far away.

The teenager was still collapsed on the spot at this time and did not run away.

In fact, the other party had already fallen into a semi-conscious state due to excessive blood loss at this time.

The situation was urgent, and Yi Hua did not use second-class phototherapy for treatment.

To be on the safe side, he decided to save mana and choose the phototherapy scroll that he carried with him first.

Yi Hua tore open the scroll, and at the same time, a brilliant golden light ball a little bigger than a fist emerged, and under Yi Hua's guidance, the light ball merged into the boy's body.

I saw that as the light cluster merged, the scars on the boy's body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The rapidly growing granulation repairs the wound, and the dried blood scab falls off, revealing the new white skin.

One minute later, apart from his pale face and weak body, the wounds on the surface of the boy in front of him had healed.

"Aren't you Lucien, the son of Baron Rafael? Why are you being chased by these bandits?"

At this time, Lucien also recognized Yi Hua's identity, and he was one of the wizards who stayed overnight in Rafal Barony a few days ago.

"My lord wizard, it's like this—"

Lucien wiped away his tears, glanced at the skeleton knights with fear and curiosity, and said slowly to Yi Hua.

It turned out that not long after Yihua and others left the town, a group of bandits came to the town to burn, kill and loot.

Lucien's father, the lord Baron Rafael, came to confront the bandits with his guards after learning of the incident.

Unexpectedly, the leader of the bandits disagreed with each other and took the head of Baron Rafal, who was an official knight, with a sword.

Facing this group of bandits of unknown origin, the lord's guards were no match at all.

Relying on the strength of the apprentice knight, Lucien lured away a large number of bandits for his sister Lana, and fled here under the cover of the captain of the guard and others.

Lana also does not know whether she escaped safely, and now her life or death is unknown.

If Yi Hua hadn't shown up in time, Lucien, who was being chased by the bandits, would definitely have no chance of life.

"My lord, please save the people on the territory."

Although saving the people in the territory will definitely reap a lot of merit, Yihua did not agree hastily out of caution.

Instead, he first asked about the performance of the bandits' strength. If he could easily deal with it, Yihua didn't mind seizing this good opportunity to gain merit.

After learning that there are a few bandits who are close in strength to the small bosses Yi Hua killed earlier, they can cut trees with a single sword.

Lucien's father, Baron Rafal, who was a formal knight, was slain by the bandit leader. After being powerless to resist, Yi Hua roughly figured out the strength of the bandit group.

"The leader's strength should be at the level of a great knight, and most of the rest of his subordinates are at the level of apprentice knights, with only a few official knights."

With the strength of the great knight, he could go north and get the title of viscount in the Mar Empire, which is respected by strength.

Is it a defector from the empire?
Yi Hua's eyes flickered. With his current strength, there was absolutely no need to dodge, but why would a great knight plunder a baron's territory?
Thinking of the rapid loss of life energy in the body after the bandits died just now, Yihua knew that the gang of bandits had hidden secrets.

Thinking of the treasure mentioned by several people earlier, Yihua's eyes flashed a faint light, and asked:
"Why are they arresting you?"

Lucien is not a stupid person either. Knowing that the wizard in front of him cannot help him in vain, he hesitated for a while and said slowly:

"This is because my ancestors passed down a small branch of life tree that can increase life energy..."

According to Lucien's description, wearing the branch of life for a long time can slowly accelerate the speed of the knight's cultivation.

It is said that the wizard can even extract the life energy in it at one time and inject it directly into the body, greatly improving the progress of the knight's cultivation.

"I don't know when the news got out. They came to ask for it, but my father didn't give it to them. They actually killed me!"

Speaking of this, Lucien showed a look of grief and indignation.

Yi Hua felt a sense of familiarity when he heard Lucien's description.

He remembered a branch that was found in the treasure house of the city of Yor earlier, which contained a strong vitality, so he took out the branch from his pocket.

"Lucien, is this the branch of life you are talking about?"

Lucien looked at a branch in the box that had been cut off for many years but was still green.

Feeling the powerful life energy contained in it, a look of surprise flashed in Lucien's eyes.

"Yes, this is it!"

Yi Hua had felt before that although this branch looked inconspicuous, the life energy contained in it was not inferior to him, a great knight.

At this time, Lucien also recalled the faces of his parents and sister, gritted his teeth, and solemnly said to Yihua:
"My lord, now that my father is dead, I am the new baron. As long as you can avenge me and kill those bandits, I am willing to offer the tree of life with both hands!"

According to Lucien, the power contained in the tree of life can be extracted at one time.

If you get two life branches, maybe you can extract and absorb the life energy in the future, and you can directly reach the threshold of the earth knight.

At that time, with the help of merit points, I will be able to directly break through and reach the realm of an earth knight at the same level as a third-class wizard!

Thinking of this, Yi Hua no longer hesitated and made a decision.

"In that case, lead the way."
