King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 608 Black Snake and Empty Shell

"Ta! Tat! Tat!"

"Tattoo!"

The sound of steel trampling on gravel became more and more urgent. The standing knight held a spear in both hands and rushed towards the embers and the gnawing Nikolai with an unstoppable momentum.

"Be careful! He is very strong!" The voice came closer and closer, and Nicholas couldn't eat anymore. He held the unfinished grilled fish in one hand, and tried to push away the embers with the other hand.

"when!"

Nicholas looked at his red palms, and without much hesitation, he immediately ran to a safe position dragging his half-numbed arms.

He really cares less than he cares about. Why should he worry about Ember?

"Only instinct is left?" Yi Yan looked at the oncoming knight and understood.

Under this body, there is no consciousness that can control it. What drives this body now is the remaining instinct of its owner.

"It smells a bit like that kid Dyne. Comes from the same system?" Yi Yan held the tip of the charging spear with one hand, stopping the knight's charging momentum.

"Bang!" And his other hand was not idle either. With one punch, the knight who had charged just now lay on the ground unconscious.

"Nicolas!"

"exist!"

Nicholas jumped out of the crack of the stone naturally.

"Carry this knight to an upside-down city."

"No problem." Nicholas picked up the knight on the ground. What surprised him was that the knight looked extremely tall, but his weight was unexpectedly light.

It was as if what he was carrying was not a knight, but an empty shell.

"But where is the Hanged City?" Nicholas asked.

"You will know if you walk along this river. There are my marks all along the road. And if you walk along this river, you can also find your sister."

Ember waved his hand to Nicholas, and then he ran to other parts of the layered rock abyss.

Before leaving, he did not forget to remind Nicholas.

"Young boy, you better not say that you are committing suicide. Otherwise, with your sister's urine, I guess she will really chop off your head."

"Understood!!!"

After responding to the empty tunnel, Nicholas finally reacted.

"No? How did he know that I was coming to commit suicide?"

But thinking about the scene where Ember killed the knight just now, Nicholas felt that it suddenly made sense.

"A strong person is good."

After sighing, Nikolai set off with the empty shell knight on his back.

……

The layered rock abyss is deep underground and is inaccessible, so naturally there is no such thing as a map.

The embers are naturally wandering around everywhere. Passing through a narrow rock gap, an upside-down city appeared above Ember's head, with a gleaming road.

"Is this a circle back?" Yi Yan scratched his head. Since he has circled back, let him see how many Qiuqiu people he brought here.

After gathering his attention, Ember ran along the glowing road into the Hanged City.

As expected, many Qiuqiu people were already lying in the open space outside the altar.

"What? You said you were hired by Ember to help?"

Paimon's exclamation sounded. It seemed that she and Ying had met Anton and the others.

"That's right, we're running out of supplies. Let's make some extra money." Anton nodded, and then he asked a question.

"Why can you still make friends with monsters from the abyss without fear of being killed?"

"Hey, hey, hey, do you really think that the monsters in the abyss can't understand human speech?" Yuan Shang's voice started to sound again, and it was so lively.

"It seems you have all met." Ember ran in and asked.

"Hmm. I didn't expect you to hire anyone without choosing anyone." Anton nodded to Ember.

"Let me tell you, if Ember recruits people, you fools will be the first to be kicked out!" Paimeng snorted coldly when he saw that Anton was still secretly poking at the abyss.

The Abyss Cult and the Fools have done more bad things, who knows who has done more!

"Fools? The brainwashing effect of your organization is very good." Dine's voice appeared, and he was holding a dark knight in his hand.

"Isn't this the knight I killed by the river? Did you meet Katarina and Nikolai?"

Ember raised his head and asked Dyne.

"We met. After all, they are carrying my former colleagues. It's hard not to notice." Daine put down the dark knight in his hand. This time, his eyes were not as sad as before.

Since the embers can purify the most cursed Qiuqiu people, there is no reason why the dark empty shell can't.

Soon, Katarina and Nikolai, who followed Dyne, returned to the team. The fools looked at the motionless knight on the ground and compared it with Daine, feeling extremely confused.

"Colleagues?"

"It used to be."

Dain nodded, "They were once Camria soldiers, but now they have lost their intelligence as human beings under the ravages of the curse."

"If you meet them in the future, don't move. I will handle it. Those who can decay from the Black Snake Knight into a dark shell are the best ones in the army who have earned titles."

"If you fight them, you will be in danger."

When Dain said this, he looked at the fools opposite. It was obvious to him that the dark empty shell could completely push these fools to the ground and rub them.

"Wow! The Dark Empty Shell is so powerful! Wouldn't a higher-level Black Snake Knight be even more powerful than them?"

Paimon exclaimed, he didn't expect such a powerful enemy under the rocky abyss.

"Theoretically, this is the case." Dyne confirmed Paimon's question, and then added: "But only those who can still retain their sanity under the curse can be called Black Snake Knights."

"I only understand it, I haven't seen it with my own eyes." Dain sighed. The possibility that one's will will survive the hardships of the curse is really low.

"Since he is conscious, the relationship is good. You can talk to him and ask him to come and help." Yu Yan never misses any opportunity to attract people.

"So this is the reason why you brought the Fools in?" Pamon looked at Ember with helpless eyes. He hired the Fools. He was really not afraid of them causing damage.

"Yes, if you meet anyone else, you can also bring them in!" Ember didn't pay attention to Paimon's eyes at all, but reminded everyone around him.

Hearing this, Ying patted his head and said, "Senior, if I hadn't told you earlier, I had seen some shadows of fools before."

"The people you met should be those who were separated from us." Anton explained to Ying, they were the only group of fools under the rocky abyss.

"Just pay attention next time and get out of the way. The purification will begin next."

"Purification?" The Fools were confused, but when they saw the others gradually retreating, they showed too much, and they also retreated.

The next scene was the same as the previous one, except that this time the object of the fire changed from one to a group.

Seeing the dark curse crawling from Qiuqiu Man's body into Yi Yan's body, even though he had seen it once, Dain couldn't help but be shocked.

"The curse of heaven has been solved so easily. It's like a dream."

Dain smiled and shook his head. Even if it was a dream, he hoped that this dream would be longer.

As for the fools nearby, they were already shocked beyond measure.

"Is this... turning the Qiuqiu people into humans?" Anton didn't know that the Qiuqiu people were once human beings. In his eyes, what Yi Yan did was to transform the Qiuqiu people into humans.

An unreasonable feeling of horror swept through his body instantly. Since Qiuqiu people can be turned into humans, can the reverse also be done?

Anton was frightened by his thoughts. He nodded to the people behind him, then raised his head and carefully watched every moment in the field, hoping to bring more information to the fools.

As for recording directly with pen and paper, firstly, there was no pen and paper, and secondly, he was afraid of being turned into a Qiuqiu man by the embers.

Paimon looked at the crowd of fools scattered around the altar, filled with questions. What are these guys planning to do?
