Chapter 66: Following and Probing

  Chapter 66: Following and Probing

  Creak... creak...

  The horseshoes and wheels rolled over the snow-covered ground, making a unique sound.

  On the snow, the traces of the wheels were exceptionally clear, with wheel prints as deep as half a foot, even in the dense forest of snow, it would take quite some time to melt - of course, as long as it doesn't snow again. In the dense forest of snow, once it snows, that's enough to bury an adult alive.

  "Yilai!"

  Hed shouted loudly, while the high-ranking knight in the distance was a solemn wave of his hand, and instantly, the entire team came to a standstill.

  As the vanguard, Eile took on the task of scouting ahead. After giving a warning gesture, no one in the convoy dared to be careless, not even the leader, High Knight Gao, and Wizard Momo.

  After exchanging a glance with each other, the tall knight jumped off his warhorse and quickly ran forward.

  Mo Mong, who was sitting in the carriage, quietly recited a spell.

  At that moment, a strange and inexplicable feeling of palpitations spread out.

  Of course, it's not just humans, but also the animals hidden in the snowy forest who felt it; especially those that were originally malicious.

  Roar!

  With a loud roar, a massive polar bear burst out of the snowy forest next to them, and its first target was Elail.

  Clang!

  The sound of the long sword being unsheathed rang out instantly, two long swords of different lengths but sufficient thickness crossed each other, and in the next moment, Snow Bear's paw had arrived.

  Ouch!

  The fierce wind sound, at this moment just like the night wind howling in the snowy forest, with a force of thousands of kilograms, smashed onto those crossed double swords.

  Bang!

  Creaking...

  After clashing swords, amidst the sound of twisting metal, Eirlys flew up like this; however, this flight wasn't being knocked flying, but rather retreating after borrowing force.

  Just as Eirlys retreated, the great knight suddenly appeared before the snow bear, his long sword flashing by, and that streak of cold light burst forth in the snowy forest. Then white turned to red, instantly dyeing everything crimson, and the upper half of the snow bear's body soared high into the air.

  Wow!

  The blood that was about to splatter onto the grand knight's body was suddenly halted by the long sword, which had been swung out but then quickly pulled back. The sword then slashed into the snow beside him, and in an instant, the splattered blood was sucked back onto the blade, as if the sword had an endless adhesive quality.

  Then, with the long sword flying out, a straight blood stain appeared on the snowy ground.

  Undoubtedly, this is a special skill.

  And before that, Elaire had also used a special technique - after all, he was still walking lightly at this moment, and nothing had happened at all.

  What about that polar bear?

  It's been a long time since he passed away.

  "Dinner is served!"

  Hedda burst out laughing loudly.

  "If it weren't for Mr. Sukebe's sake, you would be the one getting added to the menu!"

  Eliel said in a very disdainful tone - it's clear that although they were colleagues, they absolutely didn't reach the level of true companions.

  In any national power, such internal strife is completely justified.

  After all, no matter where you are, it is impossible for anyone to be welcomed by everyone.

  Add some ideas from the superior ones, and such situations are almost everywhere - whether it's Feicui or Gao Sai.

  What about Xiti?

  Under the prestige of that King of Xiti, the whole of Xiti has become a different place, and it is said that everything is flourishing.

  Of course, the contradiction between these two knights in front of us is more due to their inner pride and contempt for others.

  Herd and Elier are like this too.

  "You this..."

  The irascible Hurd was about to say something, but was interrupted by the Grand Knight the next moment.

  "Alright, don't forget our mission!"

  The great knight waved his hand and walked towards the convoy, while the two knights who stayed in place stared at each other with wide eyes. It wasn't until the great knight urged them again that they finally lifted the snow bear and followed - for the two knights with special talents and skills, lifting a dead snow bear was obviously not a problem.

  And in the high-speed racing team, once again started, and after going far away, a seemingly flat snow surface began to appear with a bulge, then rapidly expanded.

  Finally, Dean crawled out of it.

  Dean's face had already been frozen to a purplish hue, yet he seemed to feel no chill in his body, but the furrowed brow indicated that he was deeply troubled at this moment.

  Although he had long since stopped underestimating the team of High Sages sent to find Conquest King's inheritance, Dean was still surprised when he actually saw their fighting strength.

  No matter what kind of coordination between each other, or the strength and skills shown by the opponent, all made Dean surprised.

  Two knights, Ilere used dual swords, was a nimble warrior himself, and the dual swordsmanship he showed made Dein understand that apart from being agile, this high-ranking knight also had considerable strength.

  And that great knight had a power close to that of the Silver Knight - although the great knight could defeat the Snow Bear, the ability to split the Snow Bear in two was absolutely not something a great knight should have; at least it would take a power close to that of the Silver Knight to do so. And having a great knight with a power close to that of the Silver Knight as one of the leaders of this team searching for the Conqueror King's legacy seemed even more appropriate.

  As for White Silver Knights and Golden Grades?

  For ordinary people, this is simply a legend, and the Great Knight is already at the pinnacle.

  Fendel's subordinates would certainly have silver and gold level knights; however, once such a level of knight moves out, it will inevitably attract more people's attention.

  Although white silver and yellow gold are legendary for ordinary people, they are absolutely no secret for the royal families of various countries.

  In fact, each country has a special organization composed of two levels of strong men in white silver and yellow gold - the Imperial Guard, the Palace Guard, etc.

  However, the number of people involved remains sparse.

  But also enough to monitor those who need to be closely monitored.

  As a prince of the country, Fendel would be watched by countless people wherever he went, whether in Gao Sai or elsewhere, and even among them were people from Gao Sai itself.

  After all, his younger brother was also a capable prince.

  So if possible, Fender would absolutely not mobilize the two strongest levels of White Silver and Gold, because this could only expose his purpose.

  Therefore, a knight above a great knight who is not of the white silver rank became the best candidate.

  Even more so, Dean can be certain that this Sike and Momon are generally the same as Fender's own confidants - such a task would not have been entrusted to them if they were not.

  And this was absolutely not good news for Dean.

  After all, his trusted subordinates had already made up their minds and he couldn't buy them off, at least not in the short term.

  In addition to his opponent's strength being enough to kill him instantly, it was clear that he needed to deal with his opponent in a different way.

  Of course, Dean was satisfied with this probe - such a probe was a habit that Dean had developed after becoming an assassin.

  Sometimes it seems redundant, but sometimes it can help oneself escape a disaster.

  Compared with wasting some energy, Dean who wants to live longer will undoubtedly choose the latter.

  For example, this time, after Dean's probing, there were no more ideas, just following the other party - he needed the Conqueror King's legacy mechanism to take down these High Saiyans.

  As for hating one's own powerlessness?

  Such emotions, Dean had long learned how to overcome.

  It's not about escaping or recklessly jumping out and engaging in a fierce battle with others.

  The former is a timid fellow, while the latter is a reckless one.

  Neither of which suited Dean—

  Patience and calmness are what a true knight must possess, although most knights nowadays would rather believe in strength than brains, but once the brain is filled with muscles, he will soon meet his demise, at least, he will become a pawn to be discarded at will.

  These words did not come from the Duchess, but from an old knight who owed Dean a life debt.

  It was also thanks to this old knight that Dean was able to survive the annihilation battle against the Grand Duchess and find an opportunity for revenge.

  He introduced himself and went to the Thieves' Guild, where he found an experienced thief who became his mentor.

  Of course, Dean also gave the other party enough profit - within a year and a half, three tenths of the income from each task became the remuneration for this old knight and instructor.

  At this moment, Dean was just like the old knight and thief teacher taught, responding to everything in front of him with patience and calmness.

  In fact, it's not difficult at all.

  It's easy to see that compared to those targets he had in the past where he didn't know how to proceed, this Gao Sai Ren is really too easy to judge.
