Chapter 145 The Third Apostle and the Seventh Seat at the Round Table
Genos left the Temple of Angels with a sacred crystal of light in his arms. Not long ago, the Saint discovered that the power of the magic seal set by the Holy See somewhere in the human kingdom had weakened sharply. You must know that anything that can be sealed by the Holy See can at least be called a "disaster", which is a threat to the entire human kingdom. If a seal is really broken somewhere and those disastrous existences are released, it will be too late to regret.
Therefore, the Holy See attached great importance to it. Not only did it take out the few remaining Crystals of Light from the treasury, it also sent a Knight of the Round Table to escort it, with the aim of completing the seal as soon as possible.
"It's actually near the Kendenia Empire. I heard that the goddess singer is going to hold a concert there soon. Is this the favor of fate?" Genos touched his chin and smiled happily.
"It seems that I have a hope to meet the goddess singer again, but I don't know if she will agree to my last proposal. Well, she shouldn't refuse, after all, it's me, Genos, the perfect knight, no woman can refuse me. It seems that I need to consider the wedding schedule for next year." Genos thought happily.
The Holy See has set up coordinates for long-distance teleportation magic in the sealed places. This ultra-long-distance teleportation magic is already at the domain level. It took the Holy See a hundred years of strength to build one. It is also the only teleportation magic array in the human kingdom that spans across countries.
The priestess in charge of opening the teleportation array twitched her face when she saw Genos. She quickly lowered her head and opened the teleportation array silently, saying in a low voice, "Master Genos, please come in."
Genos focused his attention on Nyris and did not bother the priestess. Instead, he went straight into the teleportation array.
A silver-white light flashed, and Genos' figure disappeared in the teleportation array. Seeing this, the priestess breathed a sigh of relief.
After coming out of the teleportation magic, Genos looked around and saw a sparsely populated plain.
Genos's expression changed slightly as he just landed. He had sensed that something was eroding the magic circle of light not far away.
Although he sensed something, Genos did not move immediately. Instead, he asked loudly on the spot: "Which friend is waiting for me here? Are you giving me face?"
There was no one around, and it seemed a bit weird that Genos was talking to the air, but he didn't care about it and waited patiently.
two minutes later
"Haha, I didn't expect that the Holy See would send you this time, Genos." A slightly feminine male voice sounded.
"What voice is this?" Genos frowned, feeling that the voice seemed a little familiar.
"You've forgotten your old friend after just a few months of not seeing him. That's really sad."
Jero's brows raised as he looked towards the old tree on his left that had been dead for who knows how many years.
A shadow on the top of the old tree began to wriggle and gradually took on a human shape. Two or three seconds later, a little boy about twelve or thirteen years old was sitting on the treetop, his two little feet still swinging there.
"I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be you, little brat." Genos sneered and said, "What a pity! I will never forget a female voice once I've heard it, but I don't have enough brain capacity to remember the voice of a dwarf like you."
"Your mouth is still so nasty. I really want to tear it apart." The little boy muttered to himself and jumped down from the treetop with a whoosh.
"The third apostle of 'Black Heaven' actually appeared in such a place. It seems that this incident was planned by you?" Genos asked casually.
It is not difficult to tell from his words that the little boy in front of him whose hair has not yet grown fully is actually the third apostle 'Killing Death' who is hidden deep in 'Black Heaven'.
The real name of the Third Apostle is still unknown to anyone except the First Apostle and the Second Apostle of 'Black Heaven'. Even the Holy See has no relevant information, so when outsiders call him, they usually call him the Third Apostle directly, or call him by his title 'Killing Death'.
"We can't say it's us, but one of our little brothers who is a little crazy. Since he is so enthusiastic, why shouldn't we help him?" The third apostle raised a pure smile on his face. If someone who didn't know him might really regard him as an immature child.
"Is that the fifth apostle who got the magic sword Kruvim?" "Well, the intelligence of the Holy See is pretty good. You even know about the magic sword." The third apostle praised with a smile.
But if you look closely, there is no trace of smile in his eyes.
The moment Genos saw the third apostle, he knew that something serious was going to happen. He originally thought that the seal was damaged due to an accident, but he didn't expect that it was the people of "Black Heaven" who were deliberately destroying it. If the people of "Black Heaven" only knew how to remove the seal of this place, it would be okay. But if they completely mastered this technology, then the human kingdom would be in real danger. After all, in order to maintain the stability of the human kingdom, the Holy See has sealed a lot of "disasters" over the years.
"The technology to remove the magic seal should be the method that the second prophet came up with."
"Yes, she is the only one who likes to study these weird things."
"Is it really her?" Genos understood in his heart. Unlike the mysterious Revelation, the Holy See was very familiar with the 'Black Heaven'. It was a pity that the apostles inside were too cautious and cunning, and the Round Table failed to take them down several times.
For example, Genos was not sure he could keep the third apostle in front of him.
However, although I'm not sure, I still have to give it a try. After all, there are not many such opportunities. With this guy here, my mission is almost a failure. However, if I bring his head back, the punishment should be reduced.
The third apostle was not surprised to feel the fighting spirit emanating from Genos. He was here to prevent Bernie and Mantu from accidentally being disturbed in the process of lifting the seal. From the beginning, he had never thought that he would be able to watch the excitement so easily.
I just thought that the Holy See would at most send a round table substitute, but I didn't expect that the seventh seat of the round table would come directly. It seems that the Holy See still attaches great importance to the seal of this place.
"The more you value it, the better." The third apostle smiled. He pulled out two daggers from his back, twirled them in his hands flexibly, and said, "Let's get started. You're not just going to stand here with me, are you?"
"Of course not." Genos also drew out his sword. Like the color of his armor, Genos's cross sword was also snow-white, and there was a layer of bright holy light on the sword body.
You can tell at first glance that it is a high-grade magic item.
Two men, one tall and one short, stood facing each other, confronting each other silently. At their level, they would not take action easily, but once they took action, it would be with the force of thunder.
A light breeze blew by, and a dead leaf floated in the wind, swaying and falling between the two people. A dead leaf could not affect the two people's momentum, but at the moment the dead leaf fell to the ground, the third apostle moved. He turned into a black shadow and rushed straight towards Genos, the double daggers wielded in his hands were floating with dark sharpness, aiming at Genos' neck.
Because that was the only place not covered by armor.
In other words, this is the flaw of the perfect knight.
Facing the third apostle's sudden attack, Genos did not panic. He calmly calculated the distance, and when the third apostle's dagger was almost reaching the tip of his nose, Genos swung his sword.
"Holy Sword Skill - Punishment!"
The holy light blooming on the cross sword was like a thunder of punishment, and its speed was beyond the third apostle's expectation. If left unchecked, there would be only one result.
Before his dagger touched Genos' throat, his body would be pierced by the thunder of punishment.
