Chapter 441

441 Big Boss Blood Knight

In the basement, standing in an environment filled with a moldy smell, the Dragon Knight closed his book and rubbed the space between his eyebrows.

The part that had disappeared was not long. He finished reading it in a few minutes. He rubbed his eyebrows, not because he was tired, but because he was used to it when he was thinking.

If he had not seen it today, he would not have known that there was such a story in the past. There was nothing wrong with this mission. It was recorded in the data of 1972, and just like other missions, it was ordinary.

If one had to say that it was extraordinary, it would probably be that the Pope and the commander of the temple Knights had gone to war together.

There must be a deeper meaning for Quinn to show me this past. Also, what kind of mission would require the Supreme Pontiff and the captain of the temple Knights to be dispatched?” The Dragon Knight frowned.

With this kind of arrangement, it would definitely be a big deal to complete a certain mission.

However, the description of the quest was very ordinary. There was not much writing to describe it, and the Dragon Knight did not remember such a big event in the church. He wasn’t born 48 years ago, but if it was something big, as the commandment Captain, he would have known.

“The incident in February, and more than a month later, Grimm Adolf mysteriously died. There must be a connection between the two.”

But what did this have to do with the fallen angel and the betrayal of the blood Knights?

The Dragon Knight suddenly thought of something. He opened the book again and looked at the first half of the mission. The evil sect used human blood as a guide to refine vengeful spirits and hold some kind of summoning ritual …

“Refine the vengeful spirit, refine the vengeful spirit …”

Vaguely, he felt that he had caught onto something.

”

The incandescent light above his head suddenly made a sound, flickered, and then completely extinguished.

The basement was pitch-black and silent, and the air was filled with a musty smell.

Hu …

Clang!

A gust of cold wind blew in, followed by the slight sound of the iron door opening.

The basement was still bright one moment, but the next moment it was pitch black, so the Dragon Knight’s pupils temporarily adapted to the darkness, and it was the time when his vision was completely dark.

Someone had entered the basement while he was ” blinded.

“Bang!”

The sound of palms clashing came from the darkness, and a violent Qi instantly swept through the basement. The iron bookshelves fell, and the papers exploded.

“Hmph!”

This was the Dragon Knight’s cold snort.

After the clash, his pupils adapted to the darkness and he saw a blurry figure standing not far from him.

“Forbidden!”

The Dragon Knight didn’t say anything. He shot out a wave of spiritual power and locked the other party’s dantian.

He was a mental power Awakener, and he cultivated the Orthodox forbidden spell of the church, a secret technique that belonged only to the commandment group. There were a total of nine types of curse seals that could seal off one’s aura, mental energy, and blood Qi.

The other party used his Qi to block it, and the forbidden technique formed by his mental energy still successfully entered his dantian. However, the other party was also an expert, so he offset a large part of the effect of the forbidden technique.

That was enough.

The Dragon Knight stretched out his left hand, and his Qi wrapped around the iron bookshelf beside him, compressing the steel into the shape of a spear. The hot Qi instantly heated the steel like a soldering iron, refining it into a sharp battle spear.

He had come to the database to search for information, so of course, he would not have brought any weapons with him. There was no need to do so in the first place. As a Dragon Knight of the church, how could he have been ambushed in the headquarters of the church?

In the face of such an accident, he could only make a suitable weapon on the spot.

The Dragon Knight was extremely fast. His figure seemed to teleport in the dark and appeared on top of the black Shadow’s head, stabbing down with his spear.

Although he was a spiritual Awakener, he had a deep understanding of fighting techniques. He and the Blood Knight had studied fighting techniques under Quinn for a while, and they often sparred with each other.

The Blood Knight was the best fighting technique master in the church, a master in close combat, and a terrifying existence who could kill a half-step Gokudo master with three punches.

“Dang!”

The crisp sound of metal clashing rang out, and a spark exploded in the darkness.

The other party drew his weapon to block, using the most common Knight’s long sword, not a magic weapon. Every magic tool in the Supreme Court had a record. Using a magic tool was equivalent to exposing one’s identity.

The Dragon Knight cast another forbidden technique. This time, it sealed the opponent’s qi and blood. Similar to the previous forbidden technique, it did not cause much hindrance to the opponent, but it still made his body stiffen and his moves slow down.

“Pa!”

He struck his opponent’s chest with his palm and sent him flying. He hit the wall, and the wall exploded with a muffled sound. At the same time, the Dragon Knight had already thrown his spear and nailed the man to the wall.

The spear was broken by the opponent’s sword, and the opponent returned a tooth for a tooth, throwing the Knight’s longsword at him.

As the Dragon Knight dodged, he heard the metal door clang. The other party had taken the opportunity to escape.

He chased out of the basement and followed the other party’s aura. He came to the archive and found the young manager lying in a pool of blood at the reception counter.

The Dragon Knight’s light brown eyes flashed with anger.

After leaving the library, the other party’s aura headed towards the living area, and the Dragon Knight followed it closely.

The other party was very smart. After entering the residential area, he did not mix in. Instead, he turned around halfway and headed in the direction of Cathedral No. 2.

The Dragon Knight chased after him, but when he approached Cathedral No. 2, he suddenly lost track of the other party. He chased for a while more and saw that the meeting hall next to the Cathedral was brightly lit.

Pushing open the door, he saw that the Pope was in a meeting with everyone. In the hall, there were the red-robed Cardinal, the deputy head of the Paladins, and the people in charge of the major departments, a total of twelve people.

When they saw the Dragon Knight rush in, they were all shocked.

The current head of the pivotal Council, the red-robed Cardinal, Lauren Nicholas, frowned and said, ” “Dragon Knight, what’s the matter?”

The Dragon Knight stood at the door, covered in silver armor. His golden hair was shining, and he was tall and straight. The light shone on his cold face, and his entire temperament suppressed everyone except the Pope.

He did not answer the arch-Cardinal’s question, but instead frowned in deep thought.

If the unknown assassin didn’t have any special escape skills, it would be impossible for him to escape from his eyes. If he did, he would have lost track of him when he left the archive.

It was very likely that the guy was hiding among these people.

you’re causing trouble right under my nose. Even if you’re a half-step Gokudo master, I’ll find you. The Dragon Knight snorted coldly in his heart. He strode into the meeting hall and reached out to hold down the deputy head of the Knights Templar, Messiah Oliver.

“Let me see your chest.”

Everyone present was weak, and the first target of the Dragon Knight was Messiah Oliver. Only he, a peak S-Class, was qualified to exchange a few moves with him.

Messiah Oliver looked at him blankly and said, ” “why?”

The Dragon Knight ignored him. He moved his fingertips and cut the clothes on his chest into pieces, revealing Messiah Oliver’s hard pectoral muscles.

Not him? The Dragon Knight frowned.

“Everyone, take off your clothes.” The Dragon Knight said in a clear voice.

Everyone was stunned.

“Dragon Knight, what are you …” The arch-Cardinal asked again.

“I encountered an assassination in the archives. I followed the Assassin’s aura here, but I lost his trail. He took a palm strike from me and won’t be able to heal the wound on his chest in a short time.” The Dragon Knight said.

“You suspect that we are assassins?” In the meeting hall, everyone understood and their expressions changed slightly.

they actually suspect that we’re assassins? what do they take us for? ”

“So you tore my clothes because you think I’m an assassin? Kai er, you’ve gone too far.”

how presumptuous! You’re suspecting us of being assassins in front of the Pope.

To them, the suspicion of a Dragon Knight was indeed an insult to their character.

“Your Excellency, this is a matter of great importance. Please make sure they cooperate.” The Dragon Knight didn’t waste time and directly asked the Pope.

The Pope sat on a high seat. He was used to being like this. The current Pope was not ” friendly “. Ever since the Dragon Knights joined the church, their impression of him was as such: He was high and mighty.

the meeting is over. You may leave. I have something to say to the Dragon Knight. The Pope’s voice was calm, but it carried an inviolable dignity.

The Dragon Knight frowned slightly. Since the Pope had said so, he could not refute.

The man left and the door closed, leaving only the Dragon Knight and the Pope in the meeting hall.

“Have you noticed something?” The Pope asked.

The Dragon Knight felt that his gaze was particularly sharp. He pondered for a moment.”Your Excellency, I think the blood Knights ‘betrayal of the Royal Court is not as simple as it seems. The blood Knights are loyal and devoted their entire lives to the Royal Court. Today, I …”

He told the Pope in detail about what had happened in the database, including the note left by Quinn Adams.

“I see.” “Then, do you want to know the truth of what happened back then?” the Pope nodded.

The truth of that year …

The Dragon Knight nodded at the Pope’s calm gaze.

“Back then, I was dealing with a cult rebellion with Grimm Adolf. In that incident, the cult leader summoned an evil god …” The Pope continued, ” that was a very terrifying Gokudo master. I joined forces with Grimm and fought with the church for a long time. Grimm was no match for him and his primordial spirit was defeated. I used all my strength to kill the church and brought Grimm back to the church. However, when I was treating him, I accidentally discovered …”

After a pause, the Pope continued in a deep voice, ” the evil God is not dead. It is residing in Grimm’s body. I tried everything I could to get rid of the parasite, but I was unable to do so. One night, more than a month later, Grimm was controlled by the evil god and sneaked into my chamber to assassinate me. However, the Holy See underestimated my strength and was countered by me. ”

The Dragon Knight’s pupils contracted. Was this the inside story behind the sudden death of Grimm Adolf? Thinking back to the unusual part of the mission to encircle and annihilate the cult, and corroborating with the Pope’s words, everything made sense.

It was no wonder that the Pope and Grimm Adolf had to work together, because the other party was a Gokudo master.

“After I discussed with Quinn Adams, I locked green Adolf in purgatory and watched him closely. However, we still underestimated the evil god. The Holy See did not leave the church with Adolf and has always been hiding by our side.”

The Dragon Knight took a long time to digest this shocking news. He stared at the Pope.”Why don’t you publicize this matter?”

“It’s not that simple. The evil god can bewitch people’s hearts and make them fall. When I first came to my senses, many people in the church had already been bewitched by it and fallen. That’s why I’ve been watching from the side and investigating in secret all these years. Most importantly, we have to find Yi’s true body. Otherwise, it would not solve the root of the problem, and it would alert the enemy. Even close friends might slowly rot in the dark.”

the previous red cardinal was a fallen? ”

“Yes, I am.” The Pope nodded. the evil gods are scrambling for powerful primordial spirits. The church’s fallen ones are refining fallen angels to satisfy the church’s desires. Now you know why I didn’t investigate the land of extreme Yin and let pace be refined into a fallen angel. Not long ago, I sensed the aura of a fallen angel and thought that the time had finally come.”

“Blood Knights!” Dragon Knight Kyle exclaimed.

“You finally understand. That’s right, the evil god is living on the blood Knights. The church is hiding by our side as a loyal servant of the Lord and one of the two knights of the church.”

“There are still his accomplices in the church?”

“You don’t need to worry about that. I’ll investigate it myself. The most important thing now is to capture the Blood Knight. He was injured by me last time, so he can’t do it in a short time. But if he continues to recuperate and build up his strength, he will be a big problem in the future.”

“Your Majesty, I understand.” The Dragon Knight clenched his fist and pressed it against his chest.
