Chapter 36 The Knights' Trivial Turmoil
Chapter 36 The Knights' Trivial Turmoil
John seemed to feel no pain after being injured. He stood there, trembling, making meaningless, beast-like heavy breathing sounds.
He stared intently at Leo, his eyes becoming utterly irrational, like a complete wild beast.
John then charged at Leo again.
Leo stepped back with his right foot, then leaned forward and swung the Magic Hand longsword.
John was ripped open again.
However, John seemed oblivious and charged at Leo again.
Leo frowned. In terms of strength, Leo naturally had the advantage.
But something was wrong with John, and Leo didn't want to kill him before he figured it out.
Of course, this is also because Leo's strength far surpasses John's. If it were a great knight like Eiffel or Carella, Leo would choose to kill them with a single blow.
For the knight, there was no way to subdue John at this moment except to kill him.
However, Leo does have a way to subdue John without killing him.
The longsword in Leo's hand dissipated, and the magical hand transformed into a large net, enveloping John.
John reached out, wanting to tear the net apart.
However, the part of John's body that came into contact with the net quickly began to twist and change.
This is a corrosive phenomenon resulting from the release of spiritual energy.
This tactic is similar to how Ryan killed that Prosman.
However, thanks to the protection of the Knight's Breathing Technique, John did not die immediately.
However, being trapped in the vast web of spiritual energy was also very torturous for John.
John let out a painful howl.
John continued to howl and struggle.
However, the more one struggles, the more one is twisted and tormented by this corrosive net.
However, Leo was somewhat surprised: "After activating this Knight's Breathing Technique, my body feels even more solid than steel."
If it were an ordinary human body, it would probably have been corroded beyond recognition by now.
However, John, who practiced the Knight's Breathing Technique, only suffered minor corrosion; his physical body remained relatively intact.
John's painful cries attracted many of the knights on the ship.
They were armed, ready to avenge their comrades.
But when they saw Leo and John, who was wrapped in a net on the ground.
But no one dared to take another step forward.
Even the Knights' captain, Eiffel, only watched from afar.
None of them dared to plead for John.
After all, Leo was not only a wizard, but also a god of war in their eyes.
Leo's gaze was indifferent as he looked at Eiffel in the crowd and said, "Sir Eiffel, I need an explanation. Your knights suddenly attacked me just now. Did you order that?"
Upon hearing this, Eiffel opened his mouth, his expression complex, and said, "Lord Danville Wizard, this is a misunderstanding. We don't know why John suddenly attacked you."
"Please believe me, this has nothing to do with us!"
"If possible, please allow me to take John away for questioning, and I will give you a satisfactory explanation."
Eiffel seemed flustered, as if it had nothing to do with the matter.
However, Leo does not rule out the possibility that Eiffel is acting.
Leo hesitated for a moment, pondering whether he should hand John over to Eiffel.
Just then, several knights nearby suddenly shouted, "Damn wizard, I'll kill you!"
"I am the true god, wizard, die!"
"Wizard, give me back my dignity!"
The knights, as if possessed, shouted loudly and then charged towards Leo.
When Eiffel saw this, his brain immediately went blank.
He knew in his heart that he was doomed.
John could also explain.
But then several knights suddenly jumped out and attacked Leo. How could he explain that?
Leo frowned, noticing that the knights were in the same dazed state as John.
Just then, a figure blocked the way for the knights.
Carrera used the back of her sword to swat the knights away, saying, "Eiffel, stop thinking. These knights are not behaving properly; subdue them quickly."
"Wizard Danville, you don't need to do anything to deal with them, leave it to me."
Leo was both amused and exasperated by Kerry's obvious attempts to curry favor.
The great knight who had previously been arrogant and rude to him was now trying to please him in every way.
Before the others could even react to what was happening to their comrades, they discovered that their vice-captain had actually run over and swatted the knights away.
The knights who were knocked away quickly got up.
Just as Leo was about to make his move, he saw that the knights' shoes suddenly sprouted a pair of bird wings.
The next moment, with the flapping of the bird's wings, several knights who were trying to attack Leo instantly lost their balance.
They fell to the ground.
Nova made his move.
Strangely, after these knights fell, their limbs swung upwards unconsciously, like reptiles.
It was as if they had forgotten that they could get up and walk on two legs.
This scene looks truly bizarre.
Many knights couldn't help but swallow hard, their faces filled with fear.
The bird wings remained intact even after the knights fell.
While keeping an eye on the knights, Leo said, "Thank you for your help, Wizard Nova."
Of course, Leo could handle it even without Nova's help.
Eiffel and Carrera quickly and respectfully said, "Thank you for your help, Wizard Nova."
Nova, dressed in a long robe, came onto the deck.
Just then, a figure ran out of the cabin, shouting, "What's going on? Are you knights plotting against us? You attacked me while I was sleeping! If I hadn't been alert, you would have killed me!"
Hughes came onto the deck, looking displeased.
At this moment, his clothes were disheveled, and there was a scratch on his clothes.
Although there were no wounds at the scratches, the area still looked quite messy.
After Hughes ran out, a knight followed behind him.
The knight was quickly subdued by Nova.
Seeing Hughes's expression, Leo frowned, looked at Eiffel, and said, "Sir Eiffel, I need an explanation. Could it be that your hiring of us wizards was just a trap? And you actually intended to kill us?"
Leo truly hadn't expected that he wasn't the only one attacked; Hughes was too.
"No...that's not it...I...I don't know the reason either." Eiffel's face was pale. He didn't understand why John and the others would attack Leo and Hughes. "Respected Wizard, please believe me, our team doesn't have the guts to provoke a wizard."
Eiffel was inwardly groaning. He truly didn't understand why his knights had suddenly started attacking Leo like madmen.
Leo raised an eyebrow, unsure whether he could believe Eiffel's words.
However, as the victim of the attack, Leo adhered to the principle of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free."
Thinking of this, Leo tightened his grip on the Magic Hand longsword.
In the tense moment, Nova said, "Danville, I do know the reason behind this."
"These knights must have been affected by the siren's song and have gone mad."
