Chapter 4684
Their purpose for this trip had long since changed; it was no longer to explore further or search for the spark, but rather—to escape.
They came to the moon on a mission from the Papacy.
Head to the Dark Sun Forest in search of a spark of fire?
Sorry, that's not their main task.
However, they were quite pleased to see Zhang Yi and the others trapped in this area, which meant that no one would interfere with their plans.
Now is the perfect time to leave. If they complete the task assigned by His Holiness the Pope, they will be one step closer to achieving their ultimate glory.
Both Father Orion and Sister Leibniz were filled with a burning piety, and they walked resolutely toward the edge of the Dark Sun Forest.
As for the assembly signal issued by Zhang Yi?
In his view, it was more like an invitation to hell.
However, just as they were about to step into the dim, black fog that seemed to be the exit, a sudden change occurred!
The black mist surged violently as if it were alive, and then figures slowly emerged from it, carrying a murderous aura, blocking their path.
On the left is a group of knights in bright armor, exuding a magnificent aura.
The leader, with blond hair and blue eyes, a resolute face, and holding the Sword of Victory and Oath that shone with dazzling golden light, was none other than King Arthur, the strongest man in Britannia.
Beside him stood Merlin, a handsome young man dressed in a dark blue robe and holding a magnificent alloy staff, his wise eyes now carrying a hint of coldness.
Behind them were the members of the Knights of the Round Table, who, despite the fierce battle, maintained their formation and fighting spirit.
To their right were a group of figures shrouded in shadow.
They were like ghosts, their figures elusive and unpredictable; they were the Shadow Demon Legion of the Kuton Empire, led by Saladin.
Saladin usually didn't bring many people with him when he went to war.
Aside from his right-hand men, the sage Harald and his prince Amir, the rest were Shadowfiends who entered his shadow in undead form.
Saladin himself still looked like a lean and imposing ruler. He held a black scimitar and his eyes were sharp as an eagle as he surveyed every member of the Knights Templar.
This seems like a trial, a rebuke of cowards who deserted their posts.
"Are you planning to betray humanity and desert your posts?"
Saladin coldly rebuked him.
Father Orion frowned immediately, and his heart sank.
The entire Knights Templar were on tenterhooks.
Just as they were about to leave the Dark Sun Forest, they were stopped by them at the last moment.
This didn't seem like a coincidence; it was as if they knew all along that they would choose to leave and were deliberately waiting here.
A bad feeling crept into Father Orion's mind.
Could it be that they've discovered what's going on?
No, perhaps they came purely to ambush and kill them!
Because they already knew that Saladin, the emperor of the Kuton Empire, and King Arthur of Britannia were members of the Eye Organization.
The Templar warriors tensed up, immediately forming a defensive formation, drawing their weapons, and faint fluctuations of holy light and undead power emanating from their bodies.
Wings of light sprouted from the back of the sun and moon angels, their holy light enveloping all things around them, exuding a powerful aura and serving as a deterrent to their opponents.
Father Orion stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "King Arthur, Saladin, you are blocking our way. Are you suggesting we start a war against the Holy See?"
King Arthur did not answer immediately; his gaze swept over the Knights Templar, lingering for a moment, especially on Orion and Leibniz.
His eyes were cold and stern, carrying a hint of judgment, as he coldly asked, "Father Orion, Sister Leibniz, where are you headed? The gathering signal from Chaos points to the center of the Dark Sun Forest."
