The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

Chapter 80
Boka narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Sauron.

"Fun kid!"

After a while, the corners of Boka's lips raised, and he said, "Well, since you are so confident in your own strength, then I'll give you a chance."

While speaking, Poka clapped his palms.

Two knights in armor walked in and knelt down on one knee towards Polka. It seemed that they were the senior knights under Polka.

"Erbu, come and play with this kid."

Boka waved his hand and said softly: "You don't have to show mercy. If this kid is not strong enough, he can't blame others when he dies."

"Obey, Master Boka!"

The knight named Erb had an ordinary appearance, but he had a pair of blood-red pupils. He was wearing dark brown armor and had two long cross swords hanging by his side.

brush!
After receiving Polka's order, Erbu didn't talk too much nonsense, and directly drew out his two swords, and went straight to attack Sauron.

In an instant, Albu's body exuded a blood-red aura.

After entering the fighting state, his whole temperament changed, as if he had experienced countless fights and walked out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood.

Sauron's eyes flickered.

The changes in the senior knight on the opposite side should be related to the breathing method practiced by the opponent and the life seeds condensed in the body.

"Blood dance!"

Erbu let out a low cry, his eyes were as red as blood, and the two crossed long swords waved like blood-red sharp edges.

brush!
Facing Erbu's fierce offensive, Sauron's eyes were calm, and the cross sword in his hand pierced sharply, piercing through his chest in an instant.

laugh!
The cross sword pierced the flesh and blood along the gap in the armor, and then, Sauron moved back and slashed out with another sword, slashing across Albu's chest.

Not far away, a trace of surprise flashed in Boka's eyes.

"The victory and defeat are already divided."

On the spot, Sauron withdrew his cross sword and said calmly.

Albu on the opposite side had blood on his chest, and his face was slightly pale. Although it was only a moment of confrontation just now, he had indeed been defeated by Sauron.

If Sauron hadn't kept his hand, he might have fallen to the ground by now.

"No! I haven't..."

Albu gritted his teeth, seemingly unwilling to admit his failure.

"Enough, Alb."

At this time, Boka suddenly spoke, and said softly: "Go down."

"...Yes, Master Boka."

A trace of unwillingness flashed in Erbu's eyes, but he still nodded, obeyed Polka's order, and retreated to deal with the injury.

"How? Your Excellency Polka." Sauron said softly.

"good."

Polka nodded slightly, his eyes flickered and said: "You are indeed qualified to join my team, get ready and gather tomorrow morning in the north of Old Lington City."

Leaving Polka's manor, Sauron settled in a hotel.

"Dark Sea of ​​Trees!"

In the room, he unfolded a piece of parchment, which recorded a map of the dark sea of ​​trees, as well as various information and the like.

After showing his strength in front of Polkadot, Sauron successfully joined the team.

And the reason why he hides his identity as an apprentice is also to preserve some strength, after all, no one knows what will happen in this mission.

Although this mission was guaranteed by the Dayfire Tavern, Sauron still didn't trust Polkadot.

What's more, in addition to Polka, there are two apprentices in the team, and Sauron knows nothing about their origins and identities.

In a blink of an eye, a day passed.

The next day, early morning.

The sun rose high in the sky, and the light pierced through the clouds like a sharp sword, falling on the earth and turning into a radiance.

Old Warrington, Northgate.

On the overgrown field, Boka leaned on his cane and closed his eyes to rest, while two senior knights stood beside him silently.

Sauron stood there, looking into the distance.

Gradually, two figures came out from the city gate, one of them was a woman with an enchanting appearance, wearing a conspicuous red robe.

As for the other man, he looked honest and honest.

"Sorry, I'm a little late."

The enchanting woman said with a smile, looked at Sauron, and said softly, "Is this our last teammate? He really is a handsome young man."

Polka opened his eyes and nodded slightly towards the two of them.

"Everyone is here, let's go."

Afterwards, Boka said hoarsely, without wasting time, he led the crowd directly towards the dark sea of ​​trees.

Seeing this, the enchanting woman and the honest man also nodded and followed.

The crowd moved forward all the way, towards the direction of the dark sea of ​​trees. On the way, the enchanting girl often talked to the crowd, which also gave Sauron some understanding of other people.

Among them, Polka, as a third-level apprentice, is the strongest in the team.

And his two followers are high-level knights, Albu is taciturn, he has already fought against Sauron yesterday, and the other knight named Bert is a handsome man, compared to Albu, he looks cheerful many.

As for the enchanting woman and the honest man, they are both second-level apprentices and belong to a husband and wife relationship.

"Karina, Jim."

Sauron thought in his heart, remembering the names of the two.

Not long after, everyone came to the dark sea of ​​trees. In front of them was a lush forest with many trees with black leaves.

After entering the dark sea of ​​trees, everyone became vigilant.

Even Karina stopped talking, a trace of caution flashed in his eyes, Sauron looked around, and thoughts flickered in his mind.

Swish!
Suddenly, there was a sound not far away, and a black thread suddenly drilled out from the bushes, and went straight to bite Poka's face.

brush!
Next to him, Erbu quickly drew his sword, cut off the black line with a wave of his hand, and fell to the ground, twisting and struggling.

Polka was expressionless.

The black thread that attacked him was just a small snake, and now it was cut off by Erbu's sword, and he lost his movement after struggling for a moment.

After the episode, everyone moved on.

Not long after, Boka suddenly stopped and looked not far away, but saw a few strange birds with red bodies watching everyone on a big tree.

"Be careful, it's a blood bird!"

Karina frowned slightly, a trace of solemnity flashed in her eyes.

The blood bird is a kind of gregarious monster. Its combat power is not too strong, but its personality is very crazy. Once it is targeted by them, it will be attacked crazily.

Moreover, the blood bird is also very vengeful.

Even if you are only accidentally contaminated with the blood of the blood birds, you will still be hated by them. Unless all the blood birds are killed, there will be no peace.

Flutter and rinse!
Before everyone could react, the blood birds on the tree had already spread their wings and flew towards Boka and the others like falcons.

"My lord, please be careful!"

Erbu said in a deep voice, facing the attacking blood bird, he swung the cross sword in his hand, and mercilessly beheaded a blood bird.

And such a move immediately made the rest of the blood birds go crazy.

Dozens of blood birds uttered piercing calls and kept attacking everyone. Karina frowned slightly, but hesitated and did not make a move.
