Chapter 145 Attack from Dark Cultists
As night fell, a black shadow appeared in Ashes Town. It looked in the direction of the castle, murmured twice, and then rushed over.
In the room, Linn opened his eyes. He could feel someone by the window, and reached out to grab the knight's sword placed next to him.
Ever since Rafe's last sneak attack in the dark, he had made full preparations, sealing the windows tightly and always keeping weapons at his side.
The black shadow reached out and touched the window, and the surrounding wooden boards began to rot and turn into ashes. Just when he was about to rush in, a fierce attack came from behind.
He turned over and entered the castle, followed closely by Matthew.
Linn jumped up from the bed, pointing the knight's sword at the opponent, "Who are you?"
Behind the black shadow, Matthew felt the energy radiating around him and said, "Be careful, it's a dark cultist."
Lin En raised his eyebrows. He thought it was the clergy's revenge, but he didn't expect the dark cultists to come here.
The shadow was silent and wanted to leave.
The knight sword in Matthew's hand condensed with fire, and a large amount of fire elements gathered on the sword. A red lotus bloomed, and the sword blade attacked the black shadow.
The shadow was filled with black energy, but it was unstable and moved slowly. He staggered a little and was directly bombarded by Red Lotus.
Linn's Knight Sword followed closely behind, stabbing straight into the opponent's chest.
The shadow hurriedly avoided, but was still stabbed in the arm. With Lin En's long sword, most of the black robe on the opponent's body was cut open.
Matthew a knight charges.
Lynn shouted: "Save him a life."
After Matthew heard this, the long sword in his hand turned into a thorn and slapped the opponent hard.
A powerful force came, and the black shadow was directly bombarded against the wall, struggled a few times, and fell to the ground.
"Huh?" Linn was confused.
Matthew said: "He was seriously injured. He was in the weakest state when he fought with us just now."
He stepped forward and pulled apart all of the other party's black robe, revealing a pale face with his eyes closed tightly and no longer breathing much.
There were injuries all over his body, all caused by Holy Light spells, and several of them were still working, preventing the opponent from recovering from his injuries.
"This is the dark cultist that the church is tracking. What is he doing here?" Matthew was surprised.
"I don't know, but he must have something to ask for. He came here with a seriously injured body. Maybe he wanted to threaten me to give him a hiding place, or even help him treat his injuries. Maybe he saw me teaching those two clergymen during the day.
, think that I am different from other nobles."
Lin En mentioned two possibilities. The former is the most likely, but it also means that the other party is betting on his lack of strength.
But this dark cultist should have also seen Matthew. The two knights are here, and the probability of his bet succeeding is too low.
"Maybe, he has other reasons." Linn said uncertainly.
"How to deal with him? This is a dark cultist, an enemy of all churches. If he is really the person with a bounty on his head in Aulis City, you can take him to collect the bounty. Moreover, he killed your brother, kill him,
You take revenge." Matthew said.
Linn shook his head, "No, Phoenix was not killed by the dark cultists, but by the lone wolf."
He told the general story of the matter so that Matthew would not misunderstand.
Matthew's tone was somewhat serious, "According to my intuition, this matter is very involved and may eventually affect the kingdom and the church."
"I think so too." Linn nodded.
One inconspicuous little thing may be over in the past, but when many small things add up, it will be different.
Phoenix's death was like a trigger, first instigating the relationship between the earl and the royal family, and then the Kingdom of Kais and the church.
The dispute between divine power and royal power cannot be settled, especially in this world where gods and supernatural beings exist.
If it had been left in the past, Matthew wouldn't have cared about this at all. It didn't matter who he fought with, as long as it didn't affect his battle. But now that he has become Linn's knight, he must fully consider his
Safety.
"Sir, what are you going to do with this dark cultist? Should you hand it over, or"
"Stay and let him live." Linn said, "This is my first time coming into contact with dark cultists. I remember someone said before that not all dark cultists are evil. Besides, I still want to ask him some things.
"
Lin En walked over and took out the recovery potion. This stuff was quite scarce, and he didn't have many in his hand right now.
The other party had fallen into a coma and could not drink it by himself. Lin En simply helped with his hands, opened the other party's mouth and poured the potion in.
Fortunately, he wasn't in a coma and couldn't even drink the medicine.
Karis's voice came from downstairs, and he heard the fighting here.
"Go and explain."
Matthew went out and stopped Caris.
Linn tore his torn clothes apart, preparing to see other injuries on his body before further treatment.
When his clothes were torn open, two bright, oversized rice balls came into view.
Lin En was stunned for a moment, and then put his clothes back on. He didn't expect that the other person would be a woman.
Caris and Matthew also came in.
Seeing the dark cultist lying on the ground, Karis said: "Sir, I strongly recommend that you build a strong castle to at least prevent such a thing from happening."
Lin En held his head and said, "We'll talk about the castle later. There's no rush now, and there's no danger here. Go to bed quickly."
Karis said quite honestly: "Something happens every night these days, which makes me afraid to sleep."
"Ahem, don't worry too much, sleep peacefully." Lin En coughed twice, feeling a little embarrassed.
Caris then left.
Harlin slowly opened her eyes and felt that her body had recovered a little. She wanted to get up, but found that she was tightly tied.
A red-haired tiger cub in front of her was looking at her curiously.
There was a sound, and a man came in from outside the house and put down a plate of goat's milk. The little tiger rushed over and drank it in big gulps.
"You're awake." Linn said, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
"Oh, you are still tied up and can't eat." Linn added.
Harlem: "."
She struggled for a few times and found that there was no way to break free. There was magic protection on the rope. She could use magic to break it, but she also knew that if she dared to do so, the other party would definitely kill her.
"Tell me why you come here." Linn took a piece of white bread with honey and jam and ate it with big mouthfuls.
Eat two mouthfuls and then drink a sip of milk.
Harlem just wanted to speak.
"Gululu~~"
Her stomach growled unsatisfactorily, and she felt a little embarrassed.
