Neither Lucien, nor Gary, nor Correa heard the sound of fighting, screaming, or rushing away.
The tall, strong, taciturn, and powerful high-ranking knight squire Haosen disappeared silently A chill quickly rose from the soles of his feet and spread throughout his body, and Lucian's breathing became slightly heavier.
Clutching the Sword of Radiance, Lucien quickly turned his head and looked behind him.
On the wall of the sewer on the other side, the blue moss shimmered faintly, but there was no trace of Haosen, which made them look very strange.
Suddenly, a scream sounded, and Lucien, who had just turned his head and was nervous, subconsciously looked over.
A large human-like rat had already knocked Correa to the ground, its sharp claws piercing his shoulder, breaking through the hard chain mail, blood flowing out, staining the silver-gray armor red, and its red eyes seemed to contain a bit of mockery in it.
It's just that its gaping mouth, with its formidable array of teeth, bite into Correa's longsword, which he struck in time.
As a high-ranking knight squire, Correa saved his life with the most standard swordsmanship at the most dangerous time, and the shield he held in his left hand swung out and struck the giant rat in the abdomen.
The fear that has emerged is far lower than the unknown, at least for Lucien, a red-eyed giant rat the size of an ordinary human and moves silently is much easier to accept than the "mysterious disappearance".
Taking a breath, Lucien didn't delay, and the lightsaber he held slashed towards the red-eyed giant rat to rescue Correa.
But then, a low, beast-like roar rang out behind Lucian.
"Gary has an accident too" As Lucien remembered Gary standing behind him, a sharp knight's sword slashed Lucien in the back.
The pale white light of the Holy Light Shield shook violently, and it dimmed a lot, and at the same time, the huge impact made Lucien stand unsteadily, and he staggered forward a few steps in front of the side.
The knight's sword pursued and slashed out continuously, making Lucien completely unable to grasp the balance between his hastiness, and it was difficult to even swing the sword of brilliance, let alone concentrate, rubbing the holy emblem, and using the spell to stimulate the divine arts.
Lucien dodged in a panic, shocked and confused in his heart: "Why did Gary attack me?"
The attack from the knight's sword was slashed from behind again, and if it wasn't Gary, there was only one possibility, Gary was dead The rhythm of the knight's sword attack was very good, and it didn't give Lucian a chance to stabilize his center of gravity at all, forcing Lucian to stumble into the secret room.
But after Lucien was slashed in a row, he found that he had not been hurt in any way, and the panic in his heart gradually calmed down, he had a shield of holy light, why did he still have to find a way to restore his balance and fight him hand-to-hand The thought flashed through him, and when the knight's sword slashed again, Lucien fell to the ground, rolled over, and grasped the emblem in his prepared left hand.
At this point, Lucien finally saw who was attacking him.
It is indeed Gary, a calm and introverted Gary.
But the muscles on his face were distorted, his eyes glowed red, and there was a naked wildness.
"Could it be that the poison contained in that red-eyed rat has not been completely eliminated, and it can also make people lose their rationality and become bloodthirsty beasts" Lucien thought of this aspect as soon as he saw Gary's appearance, "but why am I fine, I don't feel anything abnormal?"
Lucien didn't have time to think about the doubt and the strangeness, but he concentrated his mind and felt the cross on the emblem with his left hand, and was about to open his mouth to recite the incantation.
The round shield wrapped in iron skin swung out and struck the Holy Light Shield, shaking the Holy Light Shield.
Although this shield blow did not break the shield of holy light, the shaking and impact that came from it caused Lucien to suffocate his chest, he couldn't breathe, and the half-chanted incantation was stuck in his throat.
The blow of the shield made Lucian's breathing rhythm frequently disrupted, and he could no longer concentrate.
As a squire who is expected to become a true knight, Gary has good, formal training when it comes to interrupting spellcasting.
Of course, whether it is a priest, a magician, or even other spellcasters, they will shake their heads and sigh when they see Lucien like this, only those who have not even learned the most basic spell-casting concentration will be interrupted by the knight's squire to cast spells, and if any probationary priest or magic apprentice comes in, there is a first-order Truth Emblem and a Holy Light Shield that has been activated, Gary should have died a long time ago.
When faced with peers, the caster always has the absolute advantage Lucien was frustrated by the inability to concentrate and activate the divine arts, and Correa was becoming more and more dangerous, and seemed to be starting to weaken his hands and feet, and his right hand, which held the long sword, had been pressed against his chest, and there was a slight tremor in his wrist.
Fortunately, the humanoid giant rat entangled with him seems to be unable to continue, and it is not as fierce as before.
Unable to recite the incantation, Lucien simply slashed the radiant sword he held in his right hand upward, no longer obsessed with the Divine Activation.
After fighting with the red-eyed rats, Lucien already has a certain understanding of the sharpness of this summoned lightsaber, and it is definitely far better than the knight's sword held in Gary's hand.
Under the heavy blow of Gary's shield, Lucian's sword swung as if it was indiscriminate, unable to maintain stability and unable to aim at Gary's vital point.
However, in the face of this sunny sword, Gary did not act like a beast that had lost his mind, but hurriedly blocked the knight's long sword forward.
He didn't seem to dare to dodge, once he distanced himself from Lucien, facing a ring of divine magic, even if it was a formal knight who had inspired the power of the bloodline, it was very dangerous, and if he was not careful, he would be seriously injured or even killed.
The sword of light slashed at the knight's sword, but there was no crisp sound of metal striking.
Silently, the knight's sword snapped in half like a piece of wood, but by this time, Gary had already withdrawn the round shield in front of him.
Deep scratches appeared on the round shield, almost splitting in half.
Lucien was about to take the opportunity to fight back, but the sword of radiance, which had dimmed a lot, shattered at this time, and pieces of light scattered and flew down.
The Radiant Sword, which began to drain its power from the moment it slashed through the wall with a magic trap, has finally exhausted everything and cannot be maintained.
Lucien was stunned for a moment, and Gary seized the opportunity to swing the round shield fiercely, slamming it into the shield of holy light, which had also become thin and dim.
Fragments of the shield flew all over the sky, and the Holy Light Shield flickered and shook for a moment, then disappeared directly.
Lucian's greatest reliance, the shield of the Holy Light, was completely shattered after withstanding the continuous attacks.
Without time to reflect on the mistakes he had made because he had too little combat experience or was not calm enough, Lucien rubbed the cross on the emblem and tried to concentrate as hard as he could, reciting the incantation.
"Ahem."
The short syllable was only half-sounded, and Gary had already prepared a punch that slammed into Lucian's abdomen, causing Lucian to curl up like a shrimp and a thick sour throat.

Interrupting Lucian's incantation, Gary eased up with his other hand, grabbed Lucian's neck violently, and slammed it in.
Lucien held Gary's five fingers with his right hand, but as a high-ranking knight squire, even after such a long battle, Gary's physical strength and energy were seriously depleted, and in the face of ordinary people like Lucian, he still had a very big advantage in strength.
Breathing became more and more difficult, his neck was painful, Lucian's eyes were black for a while, and the left hand holding the emblem was fixed to his chest by Gary's other hand, which also firmly pressed Lucian's entire body by the way.
The wheezing of the beast rang in Lucian's ears, and the cold touch of the iron gloves spread from his skin to Lucian's brain, causing Lucian, who was becoming more and more unconscious, to wake up a little.
The soul fluttered, creating a wonderful sense of spectatorship, Lucien's desire to survive exploded, and the spirit seemed to have broken through a certain boundary, spreading like the sea.
At this time, Gary's right hand, which was holding Lucian's neck, was much weaker, just like Correa and the humanoid giant rat who were beating, biting, and slashing each other until they were exhausted, giving Lucian a precious chance to breathe.
It was strange that Gary was suddenly powerless, and his strength was disappearing more and more, but Lucien learned the valuable lesson from the previous one, and instead of being stunned, in a daze, and in surprise and doubt, the spreading spirit gathered and touched towards the emblem of truth.
As soon as he came into contact, Lucian's spirit was shocked, as if he had entered a sea of holy light, and the strange patterns of lines, circles, triangles, squares, and crosses magnified countless appearances in Lucian's senses, as if with a deep mystery.
Upon closer inspection, Lucien noticed that the cross smelled of Benjamin, an indescribable smell.
Lucien touched the cross curiously, and it suddenly went berserk, as if it had been violated, and one of the strange patterns around it suddenly lit up, and the light was condensed, majestic and terrifying.
Startled, Lucien quickly withdrew his mental induction, but it was still a little slower, and a pillar of white light shot out from the holy emblem, brushing the edge of Lucian's spirit, making Lucien nauseous and sick to his stomach, and his headache seemed to be about to crack, and two cool, fishy, rusty liquids flowed out of his nostrils abruptly.
After the pillar of light shot out, it drew strength from the surroundings, getting bigger and bigger, Gary seemed to sense the great danger, and hurriedly dodged to the side, but at such a close distance, no matter how fast he reacted, he couldn't dodge, the white pillar of light completely vaporized his right hand and part of his shoulder, and the wound was scorched black, and no blood flowed out.
"You don't need spells and rubbing to activate magic spells" was the first thought that flashed through Lucian, and then he hurriedly rolled to the side, afraid that Gary would be hit by this blow, and he still had combat power.
With this roll, Lucien realized that his similar, strange hands and feet were sore and weak, and he had no strength, and then looked at Gary as he rolled.
"This is," Lucien exclaimed, for what he saw was completely unexpected.
Gary lay on the ground, his eyes half-open, nearly dying, but his distorted face and the red glow from his eyes were gone.
And around, the pools of demonic red blood left behind by the killing of those red-eyed rats, at some point, have evaporated into a faint red mist, filling the entire secret room and the nearby sewers.
In the secret room, the strange, humanoid plant stretched its branches and leaves in the pale red blood mist, which looked very pleasant.
The battle on the other side has undergone unimaginable changes, and it is not a giant mouse that is fighting for Correa's life and death, but Hausen, a taciturn Hausen.
