After the male protagonist

With the help of the shimmering light from the stone, Keria walked to the only door in the room.

He couldn't open it after a push, so he pushed the door open with a little effort.

There was a burst of dust coming towards him. Keria stood at the door and walked in slowly. The scene inside made him feel a little surprised: the room is not big, at least smaller than the outside room. There is a row of bookshelves on the left, and some books On the bookshelf, other books were thrown on the ground in a mess; on the right was a row of utensils of unknown use, which had been broken a lot.

There should have been books in this ruins when they were inhabited, and they took away a lot when they evacuated, but some books they thought were unimportant or too late to pack were left here.

Keria's eyes fell on these books. There were not many books, but they seemed to have some history. He still remembered that his mission on this trip was to find a book—"A Knight's Handbook".

It's unlikely it will show up here, but what if?

Bringing the stone closer to the book, he could see the words on the cover: "Study on the Difference Between Contracts between Necromancer Knights and Ordinary Knights", "Complete Methods of Maintaining Corpse Bones", "How to Prevent Necromancer Knights from Being Corrupted by Darkness"...

Keriya read them one by one, and stacked the books whose names he had read by the way.

These books didn't have what he was looking for, most of them were books about death knights, and a few were others.

……

But Karl and the priests went back along the corridor, and when they reached the meeting place, they chose the road that Karl and the others had come over, and they didn't stop until they turned a corner and couldn't hear the sound from Keria's side. .

Once you stop, you can't help but think wildly.

A priest thought of his companion and Eisen who died under the mouth of the spirit beast, feeling ashamed and terrified.

"Eisen..."

"Don't talk about him yet, it's hard to say whether we can go out."

As soon as the words came out, the voice paused for a few seconds before someone held back the tears and shouted: "We are probably going to die here."

"Don't think about it." Surprisingly, the person who refuted it was Carl, probably because he saw someone more desperate than him, so he calmed down, "Where did you come in and then go out? The time to go out is always faster than the time to come in, right?"

"No. The way out was blocked when we came in."

Carl was surprised: "But Eisen didn't..."

"He's a liar, in order to deceive the two of you to be his back." The speaker paused, as if thinking of something, he continued, "When he first came in, he had already taken our companion It's a backstop."

Karl didn't know how to comfort them. After hearing these words, he even panicked in his heart. He was not a strong person in the first place, otherwise he wouldn't have asked "what are we?" Can you get out?" With questions like this, who knows that even more devastating news is yet to come.

The priest continued: "And it's very dangerous inside. We encountered several waves of skeletons, and our companions were killed, leaving us alone."

Karl was a little skeptical of what the priest said. He and Keria had been in the ruins for so long, and this was the only time they encountered danger.

Priest: "Our food also..."

Carl couldn't help it now: "Is there no food?"

Before Eisen promised them food, he thought that the other party's food should be a lot.

The person who spoke was inexplicably ashamed: "A lot of food was lost during the battle."

Speaking of this, it seemed that there was no other way, and the surroundings became quiet again. Many people seemed to have lost their desire to live, and sat on the sidelines motionless.

Karl was also silent, and after a long time, he stood up and walked aside.

"No matter what happens to you, I will go back alive."

He had already figured it out now, instead of staying with these people who had lost their fighting spirit, it would be better to go to Keria.

The priest who spoke before looked at his direction and asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'll go and see Keke. If I'm lucky, the spirit beast has already left there."

"Then what if the spirit beast is still there?"

Carl: "I can't just leave it alone. The reason why he stayed there was to save us. Although my strength is not good, I am still a knight after all. If I evacuate when I encounter danger, I can't improve it no matter what. of."

He is already faintly regretting that he left his comrades who fought side by side and ran away.

Carl's words are not actually inspirational, nor inspiring, they only trigger thinking, and then what to do or what to do.

Just like now, only one priest followed him.

After the people left, the remaining priests began to discuss.

"Are they going to die?"

"...Can we survive if we stay here?"

……

I didn't feel it when I ran away, but now that I'm back, I feel that the distance they ran was a bit long.

Karl and a priest walked in the corridor without talking, only their footsteps could be heard, and the footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, making people more nervous.

Ordinary doors are only about one meter wide, and the spirit beasts attacking them cannot get in. Keriya has already noticed that this dead spirit beast cannot destroy the wall, and Keria doesn't mind if the door is open .

The spirit beast was staring at him outside the door, but Keria could still do his own thing here freely.

It wasn't until a slightly panicked voice sounded outside that he was attracted to look back.

Keria watched them dodge in embarrassment for a while, and then said, "Why are you here?"

After all, this spirit beast was already dead, and the stiff flesh and blood on its body could not move freely. Although the dodging of these two people was in a mess, they would not be killed immediately.

"I..." After all, their strength is not as good as that of Keria. As soon as Karl opened his mouth, he was interrupted by the oncoming attack.

Keriya stopped harassing him, and only said, "Come into this room, I..." I probably found a way out of here.

Keriya didn't say the latter sentence, he was afraid that Karl and the priest would have to explain it here.

Karl and the priest entered the room one after another.

The priest saw the things in the room, his eyes lit up, and he walked a few steps quickly, but soon realized that Eisen was dead, and his excitement was poured with cold water.

Keriya: "Why are you here?"

Carl was not interested in the things in the room: "We came here to look for you. We thought you might not survive, but I didn't expect... This spirit beast seems to be not as powerful as imagined."

"That's because you probably seldom see spirit beasts of this size, so you were so frightened that you didn't even pull out your sword, and the contracted beast didn't help at all, so you think it's powerful." Ke Ria explained, "If you look closely, it's a little stiff in its actions."

Both Karl and the priest were listening to Kria's analysis: "And then?"

Keria glanced at their faces, and then continued: "Didn't you notice that this spirit beast is dead?"

Carl was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "How did you see that?"

Keria glanced at him, originally intending to mock him, but in the end he just said, "Think about it yourself." He pointed out the door, facing the spirit beast that was only one meter away from them, "Okay observe."
