The Hidden Knight of Mystra Chapter 037 Shadow Cloak
In the stalagmite forest.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Roger didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't say a word.
Instead, it was the Drow girl who took the initiative.
She did not suppress her voice any more, and her natural voice was as clear as an oriole:
"My name is Koi. May I know your name?"
"Kane."
Roger somehow threw out the name of his deceased old friend.
"So, Cain, you and I have been cursed by blood. It seems that quite a few gray dwarves have died at your hands."
Koi's tone became more intimate:
"Will you come with me to kill the Grey Dwarf Great Prophet?"
Roger narrowed his eyes slightly:
"The Great Prophet of the Gray Dwarf?"
"yes."
Koi nodded and said, "It's the gray dwarf you can see in the curse."
"He sacrificed all his blood relatives to curse us."
"If we want to lift the curse, we have to kill him."
"I just tested your skills and you are fully qualified. If we work together, our success rate will be much higher."
Roger nodded slightly.
"So, you agree?"
Koi asked.
"Of course." Roger smiled and said:
"I know nothing about dungeons, and more companions would be great."
"You should be a native of the underground city, right?"
Koi nodded and said:
"I came from Bande City. In order to fight against the ever-expanding power of the gray dwarves, I have been living around White Moon City for these years."
"I'm very familiar with this neighborhood."
Roger clapped his hands:
"Perfect."
"Since we have a common goal, let's set off now!"
"This curse has kept me awake and restless for even a second."
"Please lead the way."
Koi put away his scimitar, looked at Roger again, and said lightly:
"good."
"Follow me, don't lose me!"
After saying that, her figure flashed and she rushed into the depths of the dungeon at an extremely fast speed!
Roger stretched his muscles and quickly followed.
…
Stalactites of varying sizes were retreating madly.
A silent chase takes place in the underground city tunnels.
Between the rapid or steady breathing, there are countless undercurrents of fighting between dragons and tigers.
Finally, Koi came to a steady stop.
Roger slowly exhaled a breath of foul air.
"The gray dwarf in front is yours."
Koi said this very abruptly.
The next second, her figure twisted and disappeared from Roger's sight.
Roger curled his lips.
He drew out the Qingxie Sword with his backhand and moved over quietly.
In a narrow stone chamber ahead.
There is a sentry composed of six gray dwarf soldiers.
They looked very relaxed.
Having killed more than 8,000 gray dwarves, Roger knew the characteristics of these monsters very well.
Without any extra movements, he lightly tapped the ground with the tip of his right foot.
The whole person flew over like a fluttering butterfly.
By the time the gray dwarves discovered that the enemy was approaching, the Green Fly Sword was already stained with blood.
She took the Yunyan step skillfully.
Roger easily killed half of the gray dwarf soldiers with three sword strikes .
Then he rolled on the ground and adjusted his position.
Without giving the others a chance to react, he stabbed out with three consecutive swords.
Between breaths.
He put away his sword and stood up calmly.
The six gray dwarves on the ground were still warm, but they were no longer breathing.
…
"One second slower than I expected."
Ke Yi slowly appeared, his tone seemed to reveal insincere arrogance:
"Stop showing off, we are getting close to the core area of Baiyue City."
"I know a path that can bypass the city defenses and get closer to the temple area where the Great Prophet is."
"Come with me."
Roger ran after her.
They bypassed several heavily guarded checkpoints and followed a path to a deep underground location.
Along the way, Roger threw out several questions.
Koi answered all of them.
First, a little about the history of the dungeon.
According to the Zhuoer girl.
The dungeon where the gray dwarves live is called "White Moon City".
White Moon City was built on an ancient ruin.
That ruin is protected by a very powerful ban.
For decades.
The gray dwarves have always wanted to break through the restriction and explore the secrets of the ruins, but they have never been able to enter.
Coy speculated that the ruins were related to prehistoric civilization.
As for the details, she was not very clear, and she had never been close to the ruins.
…
The second question is about "martial arts".
Koy said he had heard of martial arts but had never seen one.
According to word of mouth among underground creatures, martial arts is a very powerful killing technique.
In the era before the catastrophe, only adventurers who had gone through many tests were qualified to learn "martial arts".
…
The third question was about Coy himself.
Roger wanted to know how Koi was targeted by the Grey Dwarf Great Seer.
Coy's answer was:
"Just like you, I killed too many gray dwarves and triggered the blood medium."
"As for the reason for killing the gray dwarves... hehe."
"It is said that the drow and the gray dwarves were allies a long time ago, but after the catastrophe, the gray dwarves expanded underground without restraint for decades... Now we are mortal enemies."
…
A few hours later.
In the heart of Baiyue City, near a strange and mysterious cave.
"We'll be there soon."
Koi spoke in a calm voice.
Roger nodded as well.
He also felt the throbbing of his blood.
The Great Prophet's location is no more than five kilometers away from here.
"This distance is about right."
Roger whispered to himself.
"What did you say?"
Ke Yi didn't hear clearly, and she subconsciously moved over here.
Roger smiled:
"I say, the curse on you is fake, right?"
Without saying a word, Koi suddenly jumped back, and the familiar shaking quickly appeared, and he was about to disappear on the spot.
But Roger's sword is faster!
Before the drow girl's invisibility took effect, the Green Fly Sword pierced her shoulder blade.
If Koi hadn't reacted in time, this sword would have taken her life!
In a flash.
Koi retreated again and again.
Blood gushed out from her shoulder blade and flowed continuously.
"How did you find out?"
Her voice was filled with suspicion.
"Wow, is this true? I just wanted to make a joke to liven up the atmosphere."
Roger suddenly became playful.
The drow elf was stunned for a moment.
Seizing this opportunity, Roger drew his sword again, but was dodged by Koi.
"mean."
Zhuo Er gnashed his teeth in anger.
Roger put away the green fly and seeing that the attack failed, he had to give up.
He sighed softly and said, "You have too many flaws to count. I'll just pick a few at random."
"First, what a coincidence."
"There are so many entrances to the dungeon. I bump into you right after I come in. Isn't that a coincidence?"
“Second, it was too deliberate.”
"Even though the gray dwarves and the drow have become mortal enemies, your repeated emphasis on this point in front of me can only make me suspicious. In fact, there is really no need for you to explain so much."
"Third, it's too awkward."
"When we were running just now, as soon as I slowed down, you immediately slowed down drastically. Were you afraid that I couldn't keep up?"
"This doesn't fit with the character you created, huh? You may have realized this later, so you deliberately made your tone very arrogant. I have to admit that your acting skills are still acceptable, but the contrast is too great, which makes it look superfluous."
"Fourth, you lied."
"I asked you if you knew martial arts, and you said no."
Koi growled in grievance:
"I certainly can't!"
Roger looked apologetic:
"Oh, I wronged you."
"I know you listened to all my nonsense because you were waiting for reinforcements."
"But am I not waiting for the battle to be judged?"
The next second, he pulled out the "Red Moon" with his backhand.
His figure suddenly jumped up.
As powerful as thunder.
Under the horrified gaze of the drow girl.
Promoted two levels in a row.
Killing order.
Cut pupil.
All in one go.
The shadow of the red moon is like a waltz on a moonlit night.
Ke Yi only felt his breathing was sluggish and his chest and abdomen were slightly painful. When he woke up suddenly, he found that he had been cut in half!
…
"You killed Koi (Drow/Elite)"
"You gained 26 XP"
"You have gained 12 chivalry points."
"Getting the reward for the killing order..."
"You have acquired Koi's expertise - Shadow Cloak"
…
