Chapter 126 The Benefits of the Knights
Chapter 126 The Benefits of the Knights
The Starship was unusually quiet. Zhou Yuan looked at the distant sea, but his mind subconsciously turned to Silver Branch's abilities.
He couldn't help but ask:
How did you manage to do that just now?
To be honest, Zhou Yuan felt that if he hadn't entered the Path of Fate before and seen the colossal creature at the beginning of the Path of Fate, he would have been controlled for a long time.
"Its name is the Decree of Pure Beauty, which allows one to glimpse the power of the pure goddess Idrila in the light," Silver Branch explained generously. "Normally, one would be unable to move for a long time after being hit... It seems that Lord Zhou Yuan has already gone in?"
Zhou Yuan nodded, without revealing the specific time he entered.
“If that’s the case, it means you’ve forged your own path on the road to purity,” Silver Branch asked, puzzled. “Then why did you do something like forcibly seizing the Star Chariot?”
Seeing that he had brought up the topic of the Star Chariot again, Zhou Yuan turned his head away speechlessly and stopped talking.
Seeing that Zhou Yuan was ignoring her, Yinzhi still wouldn't give up and asked again:
"Now that you have embarked on the path of destiny, why not choose to join the Order of Pure Beauty?"
"The Pure Knights... What are the benefits of joining you?" Zhou Yuan thought of the Pure Knights in the simulated universe.
Hmm... there are indeed quite a few good things, and because of fate, they are also very generous.
"The advantage is that the Knights are united and harmonious, all striving for the same goal," Silver Bough said earnestly. "You can also exchange for various skills or artifacts left behind by the organization's predecessors to strengthen yourself and thus practice purity and beauty."
“Not enough,” Zhou Yuan said.
"And...and as long as you stay in the organization long enough, when you run out of power on your path of destiny, the Knights' power will be at your disposal," Silver Branch added.
At this point, Zhou Yuan finally became somewhat interested in fighting:
"That power, can it be used by someone else?"
He clearly remembered that on that path of destiny, there were countless wills with power stronger than his own.
If I could use those powers for my own purposes, wouldn't I become a "perpetual motion machine"?
“Yes,” Silver Branch nodded, “As long as the owner of the power allows it, it can be absorbed and used directly.”
"I'll consider it," Zhou Yuan nodded seriously.
He was really moved.
Joining the Pure Knights has many benefits. Putting aside the skills and rare items they possess, the ability to divert the power stored up by others in their destiny is enough to shake Zhou Yuan's resolve.
According to Zhou Yuan's estimate, he only needs a few cubic meters of energy sea around him to "fill" himself several times!
"In this way, even if I cast a dozen or more 'Great Memory Restoration Spells', my strength won't be weakened in the slightest, and I can still control the opponent to death... Wait a minute, this isn't right."
Zhou Yuan's expression froze, realizing that he was utterly inadequate as the Pure and Beautiful Envoy.
"How can I only think about fighting? Pure Beauty isn't about fighting and killing... I have to repay Lady Idrila..."
Just as he was about to ask Silverbrush about matters concerning the Knights, he felt the steering wheel suddenly drop to the bottom.
Before Zhou Yuan and Yin Zhi could react, the smoothly sailing Star Raft plunged into the sea, splashing up huge waves.
The surging seawater rushed in through the breach at the top, and the Starship immediately short-circuited and lost control.
Accompanied by a string of fine bubbles, two heads surfaced and looked at each other.
"Your Excellency Zhou Yuan, what just happened?" Yinzhi's red hair was wet and clung to her cheeks, yet she remained very elegant.
“You might have damaged the Starship,” Zhou Yuan pondered. “The elevator suddenly locked up.”
"Swim across." He didn't explain much, found the right direction, and began to move his arms.
Then he saw Silver Branch slowly rise from the sea, standing on a shield.
“I see. I’m very sorry, Lord Zhou Yuan,” Yinzhi bowed to Zhou Yuan. “Please allow me to take you for a ride on the Star Chariot.”
Zhou Yuan agreed, and then felt a solid ground beneath his feet as he flew up, stepping on the shield.
Where did you pull this out from?
"This skill is called Summoning of the Shield, and it is unique to the Knights. If Lord Zhou Yuan is interested, why not join the Knights and exchange for it yourself?"
......
As they talked, Lin Yuanjing revealed his outline, and the expressions of the two gradually became solemn.
They both saw two figures on the shore.
"Wasn't this place sealed off? Why are there still people on the outskirts?" Yinzhi asked.
"Have you heard of the Star Core Hunters?" Zhou Yuan recognized the two people on the shore at a glance; their color scheme was all too familiar.
"Star Core Hunter?" Silver Branch's eyes sharpened, eager to pounce.
rustle.
Upon arriving at Lin Yuan Realm, the two stepped onto the sand and faced the Star Core Hunter.
“We meet again, Kafka,” Zhou Yuan said first.
“Star Core Hunter Kafka, and Blade?” Silverbranch recognized the two as well. He stepped forward, his expression solemn, his armor clashing as he quickly closed the distance to within a few meters of the two.
Yinzhi stood there staring at the two men, and the atmosphere inexplicably became tense.
Without any warning, Silver Branch made her move.
He brought his right hand to his chest, then quickly extended it towards Kafka.
The Edict of Pure Beauty is activated.
From Zhou Yuan's perspective, it was as if a spotlight shone down on Kafka's head, enveloping her.
However, instead of taking action, he spoke gently.
“This beautiful lady,” he said, turning his arm slightly so that the tip of his blade lit up, “this handsome gentleman.”
"Please allow me to introduce you to my beautiful goddess Idrila, and to Pure Beauty."
Then, to the astonishment of the others, Yinzhi began to speak eloquently.
Kafka seemed unaffected by the Edict of Pure Beauty. She remained silent for a few seconds, then turned to look at the blade.
Ren immediately understood, and the cloth strip on the longsword in his bosom fell off, revealing the cracked blade.
"Stop arguing." He hissed and swung his longsword at the silver branch.
Yinzhi's expression changed, and a golden light flashed in his hand as a long spear appeared.
The two fought fiercely, their guns and swords clashing and buzzing incessantly.
"What do you mean?" Zhou Yuan looked at Kafka.
This woman still exudes mature charm, but compared to before, she has lost some of her shrewd arrogance.
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly as she raised her gun and aimed it at Zhou Yuan.
You can't go there.
"You know guns are useless against me, yet you use them to threaten me?" Zhou Yuan said jokingly. "But you can try it if you want."
As he spoke, he waved his right hand with a smile.
Kafka's breath hitched, her red lips clenched tightly, and after struggling for a long time, she finally did not pull the trigger.
She put the gun away:
"How about we make a deal? You stay away from the train crew, and the Star Core Hunter will meet your needs."
"Hmm...any request is fine?" Zhou Yuan took a few steps closer with a playful expression.
"No...why don't you tell me first?"
“Let Elio answer three questions about the future for me,” Zhou Yuan said thoughtfully.
His memory only goes back to version 2.6. To find out what happens next, he can only ask the being who seems to be able to foresee the future.
“I really want to say yes, but I’m sorry,” Kafka shook her head, “we’ve also lost contact with Elio.”
"How many days can I use the...Sam's armor?"
"..." Kafka smiled and shook her head, clearly refusing.
"Then what's there to discuss?" Zhou Yuan shrugged and pushed Kafka away.
“Listen to me,” Kafka suddenly said, “Your companions are in danger, but you believe in their abilities, so you plan to stay out of the way and just observe from the sidelines.”
Zhou Yuan flashed into the black domain and then quickly exited.
"I already said, your words of power are useless against me... and I never intended to make a move anyway."
After saying that, Zhou Yuan pushed off with his feet, and his whole body soared into the air, heading towards the depths of the Lin Yuan Realm.
"Ren, let's follow him." Kafka hesitated for a moment, then called out. Ren immediately stopped and retreated, chasing after Zhou Yuan with Kafka.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" Seeing the enemy retreat, Yinzhi was stunned. The spear in her hand disappeared, and she chased after them. "Please listen to my advice. Your fighting style is really dangerous."
......
Deep within the Lin Yuan Realm, clouds and mist swirl.
The body formed by the illusory Jianmu Xuangen was over several zhang tall, and could still be seen even from a great distance.
Around Huanlong, figures flitted about, flashes of light occasionally erupted, and the sounds of battle could be heard.
Standing atop the sacrificial pillar, Zhou Yuan did not advance further but instead began to observe the battle situation.
The battle seemed to have reached its final stage. Zhou Yuan saw that Huanlong's crown had been severed and the branches representing abundant power on his body had been damaged to the point that they could hardly grow.
"Is it over?"
On the battlefield, with the blessing of dual destinies, Huanlong's perception was stronger than ever before, and she discovered Zhou Yuan almost immediately.
Our benefactor has arrived... Suddenly, Huanlong slammed his hand on the ground, and jagged spikes protruded from the ground, forcing all the train crew members around him to retreat.
Then, gazing in Zhou Yuan's direction, she slowly placed her hands behind her head.
Like a student showing off to a teacher, she flicked her right hand behind her head, and a card with a flashing red light quietly appeared.
She inserted the card into her body, and her stagnant energy immediately surged, returning her to her peak condition.
Zhou Yuan: "???"
Train crew: "??????"
