.Chapter 2049
2049 The origins of the Bizarro Knights (1)
When the horned helmet and the others entered the city’s underground mining area in an attempt to rescue the despaired, the dwarf’s group was not idle.
They rummaged around the battlefield to collect useful materials and piled them together.
Everything in the world had a natural counter to each other. Even a ferocious monster still had many things that could be used.
Non-poisonous meat could be eaten, scales and bones could be made into armor, sharp horns and teeth could be ground into knives, Spears, and arrows, and some internal organs could be used to make medicine and poison.
It was not an exaggeration to say that his entire body was a treasure.
In a situation where resources were scarce, monsters that could produce various materials were also targets to be hunted.
Both the remnants of the divine Kingdom and the desperators would hunt monsters to obtain various materials from the monsters. However, the monsters they hunted were all low-level monsters, and the high-level monsters would not dare to provoke them.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be the ones hunting the monsters. They would be hunted by the monsters and become the food of the monsters.
As they had killed too many monsters in this battle, the amount of materials they had collected was uncountable. Many of the materials that needed to be collected using special methods and carefully preserved were randomly piled on the road.
No one cared about these things, because they were too busy, and there was no use in wasting some.
The soldiers and spellcasters who had been captured earlier were also participating in the collection under the watch of the desperator. They knew more and knew what kind of monster materials were more valuable.
Looking at the mountain-like piles of monster corpses and the city that had been reduced to ruins, the soldiers and spellcasters were all shocked and did not dare to act rashly.
At this moment, the city had been occupied by the desperators, and the survivors of the kingdom of God were probably less than one in a hundred. It was impossible for them to make a comeback.
In this situation, the wisest thing to do was to listen to the command and wait for the opportunity to escape safely.
Otherwise, with the ruthlessness of these deserters, they would definitely kill them all and not be like in the past, where they feared them like tigers and avoided them like the plague.
After all, the more ruthless the oppression, the more powerful the rebound would be, and he would not even have any scruples when he retaliated.
Tang Zhen slowly walked down from the puppet tree and walked to the edge of the forest. The leader of the sly cavalry was sitting on a large rock by the side of the road, gently wiping the blood-red saber in his hand.
From his expression, it was obvious that he liked this battle sword very much. His eyes were very focused.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the leader of the sly cavalry raised his head and took a look. He got up and cupped his fists towards Tang Zhen.
“Your Excellency!”
He had already determined that Tang Zhen was an expert. Naturally, he had to give him respect. This was the most basic etiquette between cultivators.
Tang Zhen frowned slightly when he saw the actions of the leader of the sly cavalry. He faintly felt that it was somewhat familiar.
“If I’m not wrong, you weren’t a deserter in the past, right?”
The leader of the sly cavalry nodded and replied in a hoarse voice, ” “That’s right, I used to be a deserter, just like you.
First, he came to the city of despair in a daze, then he was caught by the remnants of the kingdom of God and thrown into the mine.
After digging for God’s stones day and night for a few years, we accidentally discovered an old mine and successfully escaped into the forest.”
When the leader of the sly cavalry said this, his face revealed a trace of emotion, as if he had fallen into his memories.
“There’s no need to talk about the dangers in the forest. The desperators who fled with us back then kept dying at the hands of the monsters.
Everyone’s heart was filled with despair. They didn’t know where they should go next, or if they could walk out of this forest alive.
In fact, everyone knew that even if they left this forest, they might not be able to find peace. They might even die for various reasons.
In this fearful atmosphere, we were once again chased by a large group of monsters. In the midst of our panic, we accidentally entered a huge, dilapidated temple.
After we entered the temple, those monsters actually stopped chasing us and waited outside the temple, not willing to leave.
Everyone was very happy to be able to survive the monsters ‘pursuit, but the abnormal situation of these monsters also raised everyone’s vigilance.
Why didn’t the monsters enter the temple? could it be that the temple was like a city, having the ability to resist monsters?
If that’s the case, then it’ll definitely be the greatest surprise for us. At least we’ll have a safe place to stay.”
The leader of the sly cavalry showed a hint of fear. “Then we began to carefully observe the temple and found that there were hundreds of god statues worshiped here, each of which had a different appearance.
&Nbsp; these statues were so lifelike that when we observed them, they seemed to be looking at us with cold eyes.
Everyone felt that something was not right. This temple was definitely not simple, and there might be some hidden danger.
However, if he left, he would be attacked by those monsters and would definitely not be able to survive.
After some discussion, they finally decided to take the risk and stay. After all, the temple might be dangerous, but if they left, they would definitely die.
I can’t think too much about the choice, Yingluo.”
Tang Zhen quietly listened to the sly cavalry leader’s story. He would nod his head from time to time, remembering every detail he said.
Tang Zhen was similarly very interested in the divine temple that they had once entered. He even had a faint guess that perhaps he could find a satisfactory answer from the divine temple regarding the reason why his memories were sealed.
The sly cavalry leader’s eyes were unfocused as he continued to tell his story, but his voice was trembling with unwillingness.
“Even though we stayed in the temple, we were extremely careful, afraid of encountering any unexpected danger.
However, even though we were on high alert, we still encountered strange things. That night, desperators suddenly disappeared one after another.
They disappeared right before our eyes, but from the beginning to the end, no one saw where they went.
Everyone was in a mess, trying to escape from the temple, but it was only then that we realized that the temple’s Gate had also disappeared.
“Not only that, the surrounding god statues have all disappeared. The empty walls are filled with things that shine like eyes, staring at us.
I was so scared that I held a stone in my hand as a weapon and kept looking around, afraid that danger would befall me.
At that moment, I felt the sky turn dark. When my vision recovered, I found myself standing in an unknown space.
The God statues that had disappeared earlier surrounded me and were staring at me.
The way they looked at me was full of indifference and ridicule. They looked high and mighty, as if they were looking down on an ant.
It was there that I saw a statue of a God. It felt very familiar to me, as if I had believed in him before I entered the city of despair.
However, this god statue that I crazily worshipped didn’t make me feel at ease. On the contrary, it made me even more terrified and shocked.
Just as I was bewildered, the God statue suddenly opened its mouth and gave me two choices.
He could either use his soul as an exchange to become a bizarrely Knight, which would save him from the monsters ‘pursuit.
but I will also become a monster, a test subject for the God’s Apostle. I can be killed at any time.
The other option was to become an Apostle of a God, obtain enough divine stones, and head to a higher level area to accept the trial.
The statue told me that I only had a hundred breaths to make a choice. If I exceeded this time, I would completely lose the chance to make a choice and be sent out of the temple.
However, the prerequisite to becoming a god’s Apostle was to have enough God’s stones as an exchange. Otherwise, one would not be qualified to choose.
From the moment I entered the temple, I only had one chance to choose, and I only had three God’s stones on me. I simply couldn’t meet the basic conditions to become a God’s Apostle.
Seeing that the time to make a choice was about to end, I could only choose to become a Bizarro Knight. This way, I could at least save my life for the time being, hehe.”
