Chapter 367: Chapter 363: Encountering the Death Knight Again
“Have we met before?”
At these words, Bai Qi was taken aback. Leaving aside what could possibly make Beta feel threatened, he had run into a few powerful creatures, but how could he meet one in the Twilight Tomb?
“How far away is it from us?”
Bai Qi immediately became alert and asked.
Awooo…
(It’s just ahead…)
Using Insight into Everything, Beta clearly felt the horrifying aura not far away. Instinctively, he shrank his neck, and even Alpha seemed to notice something, gripping his sword tightly, blocking Bai Qi’s front.
This presence, it was a legendary creature!
Seeing Alpha and the other pets preparing for battle, Bai Qi covered his face and sighed, then he was the first to ride on Delta, saying, “Knowing we can’t win, why are we still standing here? Run!”
Although it was unclear whether the party on the opposite side was friend or foe, meeting in such a place, even if not an enemy, would become one; it was better to be a bit more cowardly.
Awooo awooo!
(Human, I support your decision!)
Hearing Bai Qi’s command, Beta nodded repeatedly and began running in the opposite direction.
Boom!
Just then, a large skeletal creature fell from the sky, landing in front of Beta, causing him to fall to the ground in a panic.
Awooo!
(Which monster dares to ambush me!)
Beta climbed up from the ground, intending to see what on earth had ambushed him. Yet his body involuntarily began to shudder, and Jerry immediately took over the body, warily looking ahead.
Above the skeletal creature, a full-body black knight’s armor descended from the sky, stepping on the skeletal creature. However, this skeletal creature, seemingly unheard, lay still on the ground.
“A Death Knight?!”
Looking at the familiar armor in front of him, Bai Qi’s hair stood on end. Without hesitation, he took out the Teleportation Rune Stone that the Magma Man had given him, poured his spirit power into it, preparing to activate it.
Out of all the people he had encountered, why did he have to run into this one?
The Teleportation Rune Stone activated quickly. A huge array appeared directly under Bai Qi’s feet, wrapping Bai Qi and the pets inside.
Just as Bai Qi was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the Death Knight came directly into the Teleportation Circle, his broad Knight Sword stabbing directly into the ground, breaking the already formed Teleportation Circle.
“I’m doomed!”
Seeing the situation, Bai Qi was filled with sadness. Then he gritted his teeth and said, “Guys, let’s fight him!”
Hearing Bai Qi’s words, even the Death Knight seemed surprised. He didn’t take the initiative to strike, seemingly wanting to see what Bai Qi could do.
Seeing this, Bai Qi didn’t hesitate at all. He directly rode on Delta, with Alpha and Husky standing on his left and right, respectively. While the Glowworm was lying on Bai Qi’s head, shining with golden light.
Then, Bai Qi looked serious, grabbed Gamma, and threw it toward the Death Knight.
“Hold on tight!”
Bai Qi patted Delta, who immediately recalled and transformed into the Wind God Winged Dragon, grabbing Alpha and Husky and delving into the void, fleeing directly.
On the other hand, Gamma, who was left alone, looked at the Death Knight close ahead and directly activated the Twin-Life Contract.
Boom!
An unprecedentedly large mushroom cloud rose. The enormous power produced by the conflict of Evil Power and Holy Light enveloped the Death Knight. Even Bai Qi and others, who had run hundreds of meters away, were affected by the shock wave generated by the explosion.
“After reaching the Fifth Stage, this explosion has become even more horrifying.”
Looking at the strong power generated by Gamma’s self-explosion, Bai Qi couldn’t help licking his lips. His left Mark Rune flashed, and Gamma, who had just used Golden Cicada Shelling, appeared in Bai Qi’s hand.
Kapukapu.
(Master, Gamma is a little tired and wants to sleep for a while.)
At this time, Gamma was completely dull, like a melted ice cream limp in Bai Qi’s hand, almost out of strength to speak.
In order to ensure the maximum power, Gamma had left only the energy for the Golden Cicada Shelling, and all the rest had been infused into the Twin-Life Contract. Now, there was not a bit of energy left in Gamma’s body.
“It’s okay, you rest. You did a good job this time.”
Bai Qi nodded, put Gamma back into the Beast Control Space, and took out the Teleportation Rune Stone again, intending to leave.
Although Gamma’s self-explosion was strong, that was, after all, a legendary creature, and it was related to the Power of Death. Who knows how much effect it could have? It was better to run away early.
As for whether the Death Knight could catch up, Bai Qi was not sure.
First the Sun Secret Realm, then the Twilight Tomb. Did the Death Round Table seem to have a direct way into the secret realm?
Or was it that the one who came also had the capacity for Breaking the Void talent?
Then this time, before Bai Qi could activate the Rune Stone, a black long sword came from afar, breaking the void.
Seeing this, Alpha promptly swung his sword to block. The long sword flew back, and Alpha’s arm was filled with fine cracks from the enormous force of the long sword.
“Damn, it is not easy to defeat a legendary creature after all.”
Bai Qi’s brain was working at high speed, thinking about strategies for escape, while his pets like Alpha were standing in front of him, already prepared for battle.
If they couldn’t escape, all that was left was to fight.
Under the wary gaze of Bai Qi and others, the Death Knight slowly emerged from the smoke caused by the explosion.
Compared to before, the Death Knight was clearly a bit disheveled.
The explosion caused by the clash between Holy Light and Evil Power couldn’t be assessed by normal standards, even the Death Knight, despite being a Legendary creature, had suffered damage.
It was imaginable that if Gamma upgraded to King, the power of self-destruction would make a qualitative leap.
But now, it seemed like there was no chance for that anymore.
The Death Knight’s target was obviously Alpha, drawing out the Knight Sword jammed in the ground, facing Alpha with the point of the sword. Alpha clearly understood this as well, fully expanding the Death Force Field, resisting the terrifying aura emanating from the Death Knight, but a creaking sound could still be heard from his joints.
Even being sneak attacked and damaged by Gamma’s self-destruction, a Legend was a Legend. Even without opening the Domain, the pressure it brought about was not something a King creature could resist.
“This is the real deal…”
Bai Qi had a bitter look on his face, the target of these Death Round Table people was clearly not him, to run into them was really bad luck, he brought it upon himself.
To escape from a Legendary creature when it’s serious, unless a divine weapon descends from the sky to save him.
Um, the God of Thunder only needed to think of his father when he couldn’t beat his opponent, could he still think of his teacher Bai Heguang now?
At this moment, a shadow passed over Bai Qi’s head, and the Death Knight, who was slowly approaching Bai Qi, seemed to feel the threat too and quickly left the spot.
Boom!
The instant the Death Knight left, a Giant Bird descended from the sky. Its black claws plunged into the earth, at that moment, the land within a radius of tens of meters, along with the Shadow Department Power, all fell into extinction.
“Jiuyou Darkbird,Teacher?!”
Bai Qi looked ecstatic. The ‘thinking of dad’ tactic, no, ‘thinking of teacher’ tactic really worked!
“Stay farther away, a battle between Legendary creatures is not something you can participate in.”
Bai Heguang stood on the back of the Jiuyou Darkbird, looking at the Death Knight not far away, slightly frowning.
“Yes, Teacher.”
Upon hearing the words, Bai Qi obediently nodded his head, pulled Alpha and his other pets and ran to one side, picking up a black rune stone he saw at the side.
The third floor’s control rune stone.
“What good luck I have today~”
With the danger to his life resolved, Bai Qi was in high spirits, he found a safe corner and then set up his binoculars to watch his teacher’s battle.
A battle between Legendary creatures wasn’t something he could watch casually.
After confirming that Bai Qi had gone far, Bai Heguang took the initiative to attack. The giant figure of Jiuyou Darkbird appeared in front of the Death Knight like a ghost, its claws, enveloped with Netherworld Power, shone with a metallic luster and clawed at the Death Knight.
The Death Knight immediately blocked with his sword upon noticing this, but the moment he comes into contact with the Netherworld Power, his whole body vibrated, and he was thrown back directly.
“Wow, teacher is so strong!”
Bai Qi couldn’t help but exclaim when he saw this. Jerry’s power source, the Guardian of the Underworld, had also defeated the Death Knight with one blow. He didn’t expect his own teacher to be so brutal.
He’s really riding on a giant’s legs!
“Heguang, this guy seems like a low-quality product.”
Jiuyou Darkbird looked at the Death Knight, who fell easily, and scorned.
“Don’t underestimate it, try to capture it alive.”
Bai Heguang nodded his head, lately, the Federation and Association had been investigating the Death Round Table, but hadn’t made any significant progress. Now that they had encountered the Death Knight, Bai Heguang naturally wouldn’t let him go easily.
“Understood.”
The Jiuyou Darkbird nodded. Looking at the Death Knight who barely managed to stand up in front of him, a mocking look flashed in its eyes.
Through their initial encounter, Jiuyou Darkbird had already grasped the Death Knight’s strength.
The Death Knight did indeed possess the Power of Death, but compared to her Netherworld Power, it was simply a variant of the Power of Death.
Compared to Alpha, a King level creature who possessed a purer Power of Death.
Looking at Jiuyou Darkbird in the distance, menacing towards him, the Death Knight slowly stood up. His armor suddenly emitted dark red lines, resembling human blood vessels.
At the same time, the Death Knight’s body suddenly swelled up, black smoke emerged from the cracks in his armor, it was indescribably eerie.
“So it merged with something else, huh?”
A hint of curiosity flashed in the Jiuyou Darkbird’s eyes. Netherworld Fire suddenly appeared, transformed into a giant bird of fire, and charged at the Death Knight.
The Death Knight also showed no intention to dodge. With a long sword shimmering with a dark red light, he faced it head-on, taking on the scorching Netherworld Flame, and forced it into two halves.
After splitting the Netherworld Fire, the Death Knight also took a significant blow.
But the Death Knight at this moment seemed to have gone mad, completely disregarding his own wounds. The black smoke on his body became even stronger, he took a step, his body disappeared like a swift arrow from the spot and lunged at the Jiuyou Darkbird.
“Damn, is this a Berserker?”
