Just as Joseph finished speaking, something strange happened.
call out!
A sharp sound of breaking through the air came without any warning.
After three seconds of silence, the leading imperial knight reacted the fastest and yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Back off!"
All the knights retreated more than ten meters in unison, looking at Joseph who was standing still in fear.
It's not that he doesn't want to move, but that he can't move anymore.
What suddenly flew out from the fire just now was a sharp piece of an armor fragment.
By this time they reacted, the fragments had already been deeply embedded in Joseph's head.
The flames on it also set Joseph's golden hair on fire.
Plop!
Poor Joseph had no idea what was happening unit the time he died, his body fell heavily to the ground.
At the same time, under the fearful gaze of a group of imperial knights.
A figure walked out from the raging fire!
From the knights' perspective, the scene looked like a powerful demon that had just escaped from the edge of the abyss.
"The burn really hurts..."
The one who came out was naturally Jimmy.
At this time, he took off the armor that was burned hot and put on a purple cloak.
It was the equipment I had drawn before, belonging to "Glory of the King" - [Witch's Cape]
Its effect is to reduce 50% of magic damage of level 3 spells and below!
Thanks to this equipment and his own strong vampire physique, Jimmy was not seriously injured.
Looking at Joseph who had died on the ground, Jimmy nodded with satisfaction.
As expected, I was right. The magic items on this guy can only defend against close-range attacks and have no effect on Projectiles.
"Yo!"
Shaking off the soot on his body, Jimmy glanced around and said in amazement.
"When did so many people come?"
Just then, the leading knight stepped forward and spoke.
"Excuse me, are you Jimmy?"
The attitude is unexpectedly friendly?
"It's me." Jimmy nodded and looked at the group of imperial knights ready to go.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
"It is like this. Our great Majesty Jerkney asked us to bring you a message."
The tone was really respectful. In addition to the emperor's order, it was also due to the shock and awe of the strong man brought by the scene of Jimmy walking out of the fire just now.
And Jerkney is the king of the empire known as the 'Blood Emperor'.
"Are you trying to recruit me?" Jimmy raised his eyebrows.
"Yes."
The leading knight nodded heavily and said, "Our Majesty has said so."
"It's a pity for a talent like you to stay in a feudal and decadent kingdom."
"If possible, I would like to invite you to come to our empire and serve as a general!"
This is really generous. He speaks like a general right away.
"It sounds tempting..." Jimmy touched his chin, thought about it seriously, and then answered.
"But forget it."
Of course, Jimmy had his reasons for rejecting such conditions.
And the most fundamental point is his true identity - a vampire.
The military strength and magical power of the Empire are far beyond the Kingdom's reach.
Not to mention the others, just the one court magician who reached the sixth level, Fluder Paradine.
Nothing you hide in front of him will be able to escape, and you can imagine what the outcome will be.
"That's the situation."
Jimmy waved his hand and spoke.
"Thank your Majesty for your kindness. We will meet again if we are lucky. Goodbye!"
call out!
A sharp arrow was nailed into the ground, blocking Jimmy's way.
Then, the leading knight's voice of regret was heard from behind.
"That's a real shame."
"Is that really the case?" Jimmy also sighed, shook his head and turned around.
"If you don't accept it, you'll kill me, right?"
"That's right!" The leading knight waved his hand, and the two hundred knights behind him immediately dispersed.
Soon, Jimmy was surrounded tightly in the middle.
"Even if it's Gazef, he alone may not be able to defeat so many of us."
The leading knight raised his sword solemnly, pointing the tip at Jimmy.
"One last chance, please answer my question again!"
"I don't want to say the same thing a second time." Jimmy sighed softly and looked around with a sharp gaze.
"bring it on!"
"If you want to fight, then fight!"
…
Although he pretended to be cool, they were actually two hundred well-trained imperial knights.
Even Jimmy felt a little unsure.
What supported him in uttering the words just now seemed to be an object in his mind.
It is the familiar [Luck Dice]
While speaking just now, Jimmy subconsciously chose to use it.
He had already thought about it. If the result of the throw was not good, he would immediately use [Bat Incarnation] to retreat in all directions.
When fighting Brain before, I gave up using this skill because of Brain's skills and speed.
But now it seems that it is no longer necessary.
Because at this moment, the side of the luck dice facing up had big golden words on it.
[God-level good luck]
It seems that after being burned by the fire, it has become more lucky!!
'Ding! The luck dice starts to take effect, and the effect lasts for 5 minutes!'
