Chapter 19 The Jet-Black Swordsman

Seeing a ray of hope in a desperate situation was undoubtedly exciting.

“Everyone!!! Let these evil things meet the end they deserve!!!!!” Nisha pointed her sword at the black-armored knights, her beautiful brows tightly knitted.

After Nisha's words rang out, the roars of the adventurers followed.

“Damned monster!!!! Give her back to me!!!”

“Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!! Go die!! Go die!!”

“I don't want it to end here!! You bastard!!!!!!!”

Roaring can dispel the fear in a person's heart. The more desperate the situation, the more prone people are to roar.

The black-armored knights turned a deaf ear to the roars of the adventurers.

They seemed to only know how to advance and not retreat, moving forward step by step in a neat formation.

Faced with the adventurers' frenzied attacks, the black-armored knights raised their greatshields, their greatswords in their right hands dragging on the ground, creating sparks from the friction.

“Ya!!!” Nisha broke through the front line, her knightly longsword flicking open the greatshield held by a black-armored knight.

The next moment, Nisha nimbly moved back to the front line, and countless offensive spells landed on the black-armored knight's chest.

Each spell made this black-armored knight take half a step back——

In the end, this black-armored knight's head was chopped off by a warrior who had rushed forward.

However, even with its head severed, the black-armored knight's head still showed no signs of falling to the ground.

“Haaaahhh!!!!” If one strike wasn't enough, two would do.

This black-armored knight finally fell backward and could no longer stand up.

The blood that flowed from the black-armored knight was also red——

But compared to a living person, its color seemed darker and colder.

There were only 6 black-armored knights left, but similarly, there were only a few dozen adventurers still fighting.

“Adventurers in the back! Don't be afraid anymore!! Stand up!!”

“Stand up!!! Take up your weapons to live!!”

Nisha roared at the more than three hundred adventurers huddled in the back row.

“「Flame Blast Art」!” A girl in a grand mage robe stood up trembling, mustering her courage to raise her staff.

A huge ball of fire smashed onto a black-armored knight, but it didn't cause it the slightest bit of damage.

With the first person standing up again, more people followed.

Virginia looked blankly at the adventurers around her who had originally been as terrified as she was.

“Blanche… Blanche?”

Virginia tugged at Blanche's clothes.

“Young Miss, we must fight.”

Blanche said softly to Virginia.

“...” Virginia was silent.

She didn't stand up, still paralyzed on the cold brick floor.

“Young Miss, don't force yourself.”

No one was more familiar with the girl she had accompanied for thirteen years than Blanche.

Virginia had grown up in a greenhouse and should never have had to face such a scene of blood and fire.

“We will win.”

Blanche gave Virginia a smile.

Now there were only 6 black-armored knights left.

As long as they fought a little harder, it would be enough.

“You will die.”

Bray, who had recovered at some unknown time, stood behind Blanche and patted her shoulder.

“If a useless fish like you didn't die… why would I?” Blanche said.

“That's true.”

Bray removed his hand from Blanche's shoulder, then looked at the center of the battle without speaking for a long time, seemingly deep in thought.

Bray's brows were tightly knitted, with neither fear of death nor the joy of seeing the dawn of hope.

There was only confusion.

——“Something is not right.”

It wasn't a doubt about whether other monsters would appear after finishing off these black-armored knights.

This was a problem that the adventurers present were no fools and had all considered.

Bray, who had just recovered from his injuries, had asked the other adventurers hiding in the back various questions.

This arena was the lowest level, and an exit existed, but the exit was sealed by a complex magic array.

There was no setting where there were still a large number of other monsters hiding, or that they had to continue to clear levels after defeating these monsters.

After a magical reconnaissance of the empty arena, apart from possibly missing some lone, scattered monsters, a large gathering of monsters would not go undiscovered.

The adventurers believed that they only needed to deal with the black-armored knights, and then they could slowly consider the matter of the exit.

——“Everyone was teleported here…”

——“Not a single person was missed.”

——“What is the purpose…”

It couldn't be to trap and kill the people who invaded the ruin.

Just as Blanche had said, it was too stupid.

“What are you doing here spacing out by yourself?” Blanche frowned and glanced at Bray.

From just now, Bray had been absent-minded.

“You'll be killed like this.”

For some reason, Blanche's tone was very gentle.

But right now, Bray didn't have the energy to care about these things.

——“One person…”

——“What if, from the very beginning, it was to capture something…”

——“To capture something that was running away, and then kill it.”

——“And a lone existence is easily missed…”

Bray's train of thought suddenly opened up, and then cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

As if to confirm Bray's thoughts——

A black shadow walked over faintly from a great distance.

The sound of harsh metal scraping also rang out.

Sparks that occasionally flew up in the distance illuminated the figure of the newcomer.

Nisha glanced at the newcomer, her heart full of doubt.

“Who is it! If you are an adventurer, please answer!” Nisha shouted delicately, but the knightly longsword in her hand did not stop its attack on the black-armored knight.

But the newcomer did not answer.

That person just walked over, gradually entering everyone's field of vision.

The faint blue firelight shone on the newcomer's suit of jet-black armor.

The hearts of all the adventurers skipped a beat.

Was it a missed black-armored knight? If so, that would be very bad.

The powerful black-armored knights, each individual was terrifyingly strong.

If there was one more, the casualties of the adventurers would be even more severe.

All the adventurers probably only felt a slight headache, only Bray felt fear.

Bray observed more carefully than the others——

Although the armor was also jet-black, its style was more exquisite.

The sharp edges and wild design all indicated the power of this suit of armor.

The silver light on the armor shone along the patterns, emitting a different brilliance from this faint blue ghost fire.

The newcomer was not holding a greatsword in one hand and a greatshield in the other, but was holding two greatswords.

Each greatsword was nearly as tall as a person, and their shape could be described as an iron block.

At a glance, they were incomparably heavy weapons.

But these two greatswords were each held firmly in one hand by this jet-black swordsman.

——A jet-black swordsman, holding two greatswords, stood on the corpses of countless angels, demons, and sea tribes, raising his weapons high.

——The surrounding crowd cheered, and even the sun broke through the dark clouds and fell on this jet-black swordsman.

——Slaying the Bronze Species who regarded the Black Iron Species as ants, saving countless massacred people.

——Simply a heroic figure.

This was the content of the mural, which many people did not understand because they did not know the secrets of the world.

It was only now that Bray realized that the patterns carved on the pillars were exactly the same as the story told on the stone wall.

And the hero in the mural was now standing in front of everyone.

From the very beginning, the target of the teleportation from those stone bricks was just one.

And that was this jet-black swordsman.
