Alien Knights

The roar that resounded through the sky came from the mouth of the tyrant, shaking everything in the world.

In the face of such a powerful monster, human beings are like dwarfs in front of giants, weak and powerless.

Looking at the fleeing sailors, No. 21 mustered up his courage, condensed a fireball in the palm of his hand, and threw it hard at the monster.

As soon as the hot fireball touched the frost armor on the tyrant's body, it disappeared completely without even a single ripple appearing.

The tyrant turned his head and looked at the small and ignorant enemy in front of him. His huge mouth opened suddenly, and a biting ice storm swept across the entire hull in an instant.

Creatures standing on the deck were frozen into ice blocks, and even large pieces of floating ice appeared on the river near the hull.

The tyrant stretched out his giant claws and slammed the deck under his feet. The hull was bumped up and down, and the bodies that had been frozen into ice sculptures rose into the air and fell to the ground, turning into piles of shattered ice slag.

Thelma, who was hiding behind the partition of the slipway, hugged Hyatt tightly, her purple lips were trembling with cold: "Father, there is no way we can defeat that monster!"

The weak Hyatt nodded. He turned his head and glanced at the tyrant who was searching everywhere on the deck, and said to his daughter: "In the secret compartment of the captain's cabin, there is an iron box containing the 'Resurrection Insect'. Take it and leave this ship. The sooner the better!"

Selma's teardrops instantly condensed into ice crystals in the cold air: "No! Father, I can't abandon you! Come with me!"

Hyatt pulled his daughter up to him with all his strength, and looked at her decisively: "Selma, listen carefully! The 'Resurrected Worm' must never fall into the hands of the church. You must bring it back to the Temple of the Mother God safely! Also, tell my compatriots who believe in the Mother God that we have misjudged the power of the Church! If the Church can breed monsters with such destructive power, then we must reconsider the plan we made at the beginning!"

Thelma held onto Hyatt's sleeve tightly and shook her head desperately: "Father! I can't just watch you die!"

"Listen! My daughter!" Hyatt held Selma's cheeks and said with a smile: "Death is not terrible. What I have to experience is to return to the embrace of the Mother God. What really scares me is seeing our compatriots go to destruction without knowing it! So, I put all my hopes on you, and bring the news of the "Resurrection Worm" and the monster back to the Temple of the Mother God!"

Seeing Thelma nodding in tears, Hyatt smiled gratifiedly. He patted his daughter's head, and ran to the deck at the right time, stood in front of the tyrant, and shouted: "You damn monster! Come to me! If you have the guts, try to kill me!"

The tyrant stopped and turned his head to look at Hyatt, with a little light reflected in the golden animal pupils.

Hyatt looked into the monster's eyes, and after a moment of astonishment, he suddenly realized that he had made a big mistake.

The behemoth in front of me is not the bloodthirsty and violent monster as imagined, "it" possesses wisdom...

"Pretty poor acting." The monster's voice was like a rumbling thunder, but it was a clear and unmistakable lingua franca.

Hyatt was completely stunned: "You...you can talk?!"

Seeing Hyatt's staggering pace and tired figure, the monster curled its lips, its shape suddenly changed, its huge body shrunk slowly, and the human figure of an adult man appeared in front of him.

Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Hyatt opened his mouth wide and said in disbelief, "You are the church deacon in the sewer!"

Todd, who turned into the appearance of Felicchild, randomly found a rag from the deck, and while covering his lower body, he pointed to the tops of the two people's heads.

Hyatt looked up and saw six griffins hovering over the ship, carefully searching the surroundings of the ship and the nearby water.

"I know you're playing the role of bait." Todd gestured toward the sky, and the two griffins slowly landed on the devastated deck with the Valkyries on their backs: "I also know that you understand the gap in strength, why don't we skip those embarrassing hostility and bickering and talk about the deal directly."

Hyatt groaned, trying to delay the time while praying anxiously that his daughter had escaped.

To his despair, a few minutes later, a Valkyrie appeared in front of him holding the unconscious Thelma.

Todd first glanced at the woman in Evie's arms, then looked at Hyatt with a worried expression, and finally said with a smile: "It seems that I have another important chip in my hand."

After controlling the Hyatt father and daughter with the magic magnetic crystal, Todd ordered the Valkyries to keep an eye on the two alien species.

He himself put on a clean robe and went to the cabin below the deck.

Pushing open the door, the first thing Todd saw was the corpse of a man in gray robe.

The unlucky guy was hit on the back of the head by a falling wooden beam while the ship was pitching, and he died like this.

Stepping over the corpse, Todd walked in.

Sinclair and Leoric were lying on the two beds in the cabin, and both of them were fixed by ropes on the bed, unable to move.

Seeing Todd's appearance, Sinclair shouted excitedly: "Thank you, Father! I knew the church would not abandon me!"

Leoric looked at Todd with complicated eyes, and remained silent.

Sinclair twisted his body desperately, and couldn't wait to say: "Felicchild! My good brother! Hurry up and untie me!"

Todd didn't move, didn't speak, just looked at Sinclair with a smile.

Leoric glanced at Sinclair beside him, and his voice sounded like a bellows with a hole in it: "Stupid guy! You have been tricked from beginning to end!"

Sinclair opened his eyes wide, thought for a few seconds on the bed, and suddenly yelled at Todd: "No! Who are you?!"

Todd laughed and rubbed his face, and immediately returned to his original appearance.

The sudden scene in front of him caused Sinclair to scream.

Todd moved a chair from the cabin, sat in front of the two, and first said to Leoric: "King of the Holy Acropolis, I have to say that your plan surprised me. First, you used the heir election to intensify domestic conflicts and attract everyone's attention, so that you can carry out a series of preparations; then, you used the elders to control the situation in the election venue, and borrowed a crazy massacre to get rid of all the nobles who opposed you, and then transferred all the sins to Leoric's body; In the end, use the power ritual to let your soul occupy Sinclair's body and return to the throne of the Holy Acropolis..."

Leoric looked at the roof of the cabin, silent.

Todd shifted his gaze to Sinclair again: "As for you, Your Highness Sinclair, deception, hypocrisy, viciousness, and cruelty, you have all the qualities of your father, except for one thing - forbearance. When you joined forces with the Church to control the entire situation, you indulged in the upcoming victory, but forgot to be cautious and observant, and finally fell into a trap."

Leoric looked at Todd and asked in a low voice: "I don't understand, where did you see the flaws in this plan?"

Todd took out a small thing from his arms, which was the badge made of magic magnetic crystals.

"You gave Mary and me something like this, a friend happened to know the origin of it..."

Leoric looked at the badge in Todd's hand and sighed.

Sinclair rolled his eyes and hurriedly said to Todd: "My friend, let's make a deal. As long as you put me on the throne, I can give you everything you want! Wealth? Army? I know! What you want is Mary! Right? Believe me, I have a hundred ways to get you her!"

Seeing Todd staring at him in astonishment, Sinclair, who tore off his hypocritical mask, thought that the other party had already moved, so he simply let go of all his disguise, and quickly said: "I got a formula from the church that can turn the most chaste woman into the most dissolute bitch! Back then, I used this potion to take down my aunt Tania..."

"You bastard!" Leoric's eyes widened when he heard this, and infinite strength suddenly burst out from his whole body. He wanted to struggle to get up from the bed, and threw himself at Sinclair.

Seeing his father's futile appearance, Sinclair laughed loudly: "Stop pretending! My father! You and your sister Tania, what kind of scandal did you do? Do you think I don't know? Who is Mary's biological mother? Do you think you have fooled everyone?!"

Sinclair's words were like a dagger, cutting Leoric's will bit by bit.

The old man's face was ashen, and his life, which was extended by relying on supernatural powers, had finally come to the point of exhaustion.

The body arched upwards, the pupils dilated slowly, and the chest stopped rising and falling. "The Lion of Heavenly Father" swallowed his last breath, and everything came down to calm.

Sinclair squinted at his dead father, and looked at Todd with a smile: "The guy who got in the way is finally dead, let's talk..."

Before the words fell, Sinclair's chest felt cold.

Todd used the ability of "shaping" to turn his palm into a sharp blade, which directly penetrated Sinclair's heart.

"Why?"

Sinclair's mouth overflowed with blood, and he asked unwillingly.

Todd withdrew his "sharp blade", looked coldly at this despicable and dirty bastard, and said slowly: "With a person who only has darkness in his heart, sooner or later, he will also be swallowed by darkness."
