Chapter 18 Margau's Journal
It has to be said that Xiao Jinsheng's order to escape is very correct. Although the female knight is powerful, she can only choose one target to pursue.
"Huh... It seems that the first target is not me, it seems that I went to the head teacher?" Bai Xiaowen breathed a sigh of relief and observed a second of silence for the fat head teacher, "However, since it is a knight in the medieval European background, it should be They believe in the way of chivalry, so they are unlikely to kill indiscriminately, right?”
Bai Xiaowen dodged and rushed into another basement on the side of the fork. Compared with the artificially excavated basement before, this basement is much narrower and lower, and the walls are uneven.
"This should be the basement dug by the plague rat."
Just as Bai Xiaowen's thought flashed by, a gust of wind blew up, and a black shadow rushed towards the door! In the dim vision, only a pair of green eyes could be seen.
"Zombie rat!"
Bai Xiaowen ignored his image and rolled to the ground to escape, avoiding the pounce of the zombie mouse. However, the agility of the zombie mouse over 6 points played a role, stepping on the rock wall, turning the direction, and continuing to pounce on Bai Xiaowen!
With a screeching sound, the zombie rat pounced on Bai Xiaowen's back, slashed with its sharp claws, and Bai Xiaowen's clothes were torn on the back. Fortunately, the machete tied behind his back blocked it, otherwise, with Bai Xiaowen's fragile physique, he would be injured with a single claw.
At the moment of crisis, Bai Xiaowen's brain was clear. He gritted his teeth to hold back the burning pain behind him, kicked his feet on the ground, and activated his strength of 4.5 with all his strength. A pair of military boots even cracked, which shows the speed of this kick!
Bang!
Bai Xiaowen's body hit the rock wall heavily.
The zombie rat lying on his back was almost squeezed into a patty by the force of the collision. Its rigid skin is of little use against this bludgeoning type of damage.
Bai Xiaowen himself was not feeling well, and he was almost out of breath. Fortunately, his spirit was higher, and he resisted the pain that his spine was almost displaced, and sat down slowly against the rock wall. The zombie rat's body was very close to him, but Bai Xiaowen had no idea of moving it.
"The battle is over, Strength 5, Accuracy 3, Continuity 3, Battle Rating: Excellent."
"Your basic specialty: increased combat proficiency."
Glancing at the fighting skill proficiency that had improved a lot, Bai Xiaowen let out a sigh of relief. He just killed the zombie rat, and he was considered to have performed exceptionally well, and all the evaluations exceeded the usual training standards.
In the era of digital psionics, the explosive power of life cannot be underestimated.
Bai Xiaowen turned on the searchlight and began to identify the parchment scroll.
The danger is not over, what is really scary is the female knight from the spiritual world. Bai Xiaowen must know more information, including the opponent's purpose, the source of the mutation of the plague rat's lair, etc., so that there is more hope of escaping!
The text on the parchment is in Old Latin, scribbled, and several pages are missing.
Ancient Latin, like classical Chinese, is a regular class subject.
Bai Xiaowen had learned Latin when he was not divided into classes in the first year of high school. With his abnormal memory, he could still recall many Latin words after searching. Of course, he had nothing to do with grammatical structures and so on. He identified this parchment, basically relying on vocabulary to guess.
(This kind of feeling is very sour and refreshing. Students who are scumbags can make up their own minds to make up the feeling of English reading comprehension. Please ignore the masters.)
Bai Xiaowen flipped through the records of the sheepskin scroll page by page, and slowly sorted out the information.
This is a diary with a line written on the title page.
"I, Margo, have the great honor to be the servant of Lord Fargar, the chief alchemist of the Lionheart Empire. I swear to the Lord of Light that I will always be loyal to my master."
Only then did Bai Xiaowen know that the identity of the deceased in the linen robe in the basement turned out to be a servant named Margao.
"July 9, 1152 on the Bright Calendar."
"The number of times the master lost his temper was increasing.
His Majesty the Emperor seemed to trust the new alchemist more, and disdain for the alchemy results offered by the master. This month, two servants have been beaten to death by the master with the whip of punishment, and I don't want to be the third. The Lord of Light is above. "
"August 11, 1152, Bright Calendar."
"Today we went to Northshire Abbey to pray. This is the third time this month. The master seems to have become a lot more pious recently."
"The master's temper has also improved, and there has been no attack this month. This must be the blessing of the Lord of Light, praise the Lord of Light!"
"September 20, 1152 in the Bright Calendar."
"Unbelievable! The master is willing to accept me as an apprentice. What a rare opportunity! Praise the master!"
"September 21, 1152 in the Bright Calendar."
"The master told me his plan and threatened me to join, otherwise he would silence me. God, I'd rather never heard of this crazy plan, he's going to steal the soul stone sealed by the Northshire Abbey!"
"That evil soul stone is closely guarded by the nuns of Northshire Abbey. Those terrible nuns who give up their desires for money, pleasure, family, love, etc., and dedicate their whole body and mind to the Lord of Light are simply unreasonable. Madman, anyone who dares to approach the Soul Stone will be mercilessly purified by them!"
The following log is missing many pages. Through some scattered descriptions, Bai Xiaowen speculated that the "evil soul stone" should have been obtained by the royal alchemist Fargar and his servant Margao.
It seems that the nuns were not as scary as Margao had described.
Bai Xiaowen continued to scroll down and found another relatively complete log page.
"April 6, 1153 in the Bright Calendar."
"This is the third time we have escaped. Those crazy nuns actually persuaded His Majesty to send powerful royal knights to hunt us down! Although the Lionheart Empire is huge, there is no place for us."
"We are destined to leave our homeland and head towards the city of Waltram, the pearl of the southern port. My master plans to find a ship there and cross the ocean to the New World. Before mastering the power of the evil soul stone and reaching the pinnacle of alchemy, He swore never to return to the Lionheart Empire."
"May 30, 1153 in the Bright Calendar."
"In this seemingly endless pursuit and escape, I gradually discovered the changes in the master. His skin is getting paler and paler day by day, like a vampire crawling out of a tomb, which is daunting. However, the master's The power is also increasing day by day, he becomes faster and stronger, are these the power brought by the evil soul stone?"
"June 2, 1153 in the Bright Calendar."
"Praise the Lord of Light! Just when the master and I were forced to the end by the Royal Knights, a space crack appeared like a miracle! No matter what world is on the other side of the crack, we have no choice."
"I can finally get rid of this eternal pursuit. I seem to hear the angry and unwilling roar of the royal knight who followed."
