Chapter 42: Corrupted knights
Chapter 42: Corrupted knights
'System, please tell me I am seeing things.'
{You are not.}
'Is this really the knights statue's profile? Or, are you showing me some powerful monster.'
{What are you saying host? Do you see any powerful monster around? Maybe you are going insane.}
Supreme was silent for a while, moment next, his face lit up. 'I will just ask AI, and see if you have a malfunction.'
{"....."}
'AI show me the knights profiles.'
'Are you kidding me!!'
"Hey supreme, I don't know you are scared of just twenty statues." A player with green hair stood up, walking towards supreme.
'Is this guy a fool? Wait... without AI, they won't be able to determine the levels of these knights, So, what is this fool doing?'
The guy walked up to supreme and said mockingly. "Are you afraid? I thought the legendary supreme who has a legendary weapon isn't afraid of anything."
Supreme didn't even look at him, his gaze was fixed on the statues who are standing twenty feets away in front of him.
'What are they doing? Why hasn't they attack us?'
His question was answered by AI.
A huge red circle appeared, surrounding the knights in it, and separating them from the players.
'35 minutes is gone, well...'
He thought was interrupted by the green hair player.
"Let me show you who is the boss" he said cracking his knuckles, as he walked towards the knights.
'Is this foolishness or what?' Supreme was a little confused by the player's self-confident.
'You are just a LV 30, you alone won't be able to take even one of those knights statues' he groaned inwardly.
"Go Nico! Go get them!"
"Yeah! We are with you!!"
"Show this guy who is the boss!!"
"You can do it!"
The players were cheering him up, while remaining on their spot. Non... planning to help.
The green hair player smiled from ear to ear, hearing the cheers. 'Don't worry schoolgirl, I will prove to you that I am worthy for you.'
Driven by love or stupidity, the LV 30 player, one of the silver medal one-star player in the group, entered the circle with a smile.
The knights' glowing orbs, which works like eyes, were fixed on him, the first knight, the same one supreme hit with his sword slowly raised its right hand.
Instantly, all the remaining 19 statues moved forming a Semi circle, all facing the green hair player.
"....."
The guy was a little stunned by the statues' formation, 'Don't be scared, they are just mindless monsters. I have killed a lot of their kind.'
A simple mistake, because these statutes aren't monsters.
"This guy is dead" schoolgirl muttered.
"How do you know that? He is one of the highest level player in this group." The blue hair man asked with a frown.
"Even if he is the number one strongest in the group, he won't survive with the combined teamwork of the knights, and that fool doesn't even know those knights are smarter than him"
"How do you know all these?" The man asked.
"As supreme said, 'common sense.' And the moment those knights took that formation, he is dead."
"Really?" The man observed the statues, but couldn't find anything special about them. "I don't know how you come up with this, but... we will find out if you are right or wrong."
Supreme was a little annoyed, 'This fool, fine then... just go and die. System show me the knights' profile again.'
{Ok host.}
{ Getting profile.}
{ Name given: corrupted king's knights}
{ Species: Once human.}
{ Level: 40.}
{ strength: 30,000 }
{ defense: 45,000 }
{ Agility: 23,000 }
{ Intelligence: 60% }
{ HP: 40,000 }
{ details: once the personal knights of the king of the fire empire, but out of greed and power, the leader, who is the chief knight corrupted the hearts of the knights. One day they ambushed the king, killing him in the process. After bathing in their victory they returned to the castle to claim the right to the throne and territories.
But their plans were ruined by the strongest creature in the whole empire, this monster crushed and destroyed them to the ground, then used its powers turning them into metal statues, to stand guard for eternity.}
'Whoa, this is a long background check.' Supreme commented, 'these humans or statues, are all in LV 40, with incredible strength and defense. Only two of them will be a pain in the ass, and here we are, with twenty of these things.'
"Hey you fuckers! Come and get some fist!!" The green hair player yelled at the knights, giving them a middle finger.
The knights' red eyes blazed violently. These guys were once human, so of course, they could tell when a weak human is provoking them.
"This fool is really stupid." Schoolgirl shook her head slowly.
"Let see what he is planning on doing, those statues are all armed with huge deadly weapons, while him... Is he planning on using his fist?" The man asked utterly speechless.
"That why I said he is a fool." Schoolgirl said, not knowing the guy was doing this to impress her, which was not working, not even a bit!
He simply went inside the circle to die.
The first knight finally got in a fighting stance, its huge sword's blade aimed at the ground, for now.
"Let dance" the green hair player said, with a smile as he got in his fighting stance. A pure kungfu master. "Let me show you metal heads what a black sash kungfu master can do." He said moving his hands in a strange way, that supreme and the other players hasn't seen before.
"This guy is stupid" supreme muttered with a chuckled.
Even though the players didn't understand his weird hand moves, they continue cheering for him.
"You got this!!"
"Show them you are the only master here!!"
"A black sash is said to be the highest class in kungfu, right?"
"Yeah, those with black sash are masters, some of them are even refers to as sensei."
"I heard those guys are really powerful, but after VRG took over. The number of people practicing kungfu reduced greatly, it's good someone like Nico is present."
"You are right"
All the players were in high spirit, cheering for the green hair player who goes by the name Nico.
"These guys are just as foolish as him" schoolgirl said. While the man remained silent, everyone was currently standing, waiting for the imminent battle.
The knights statues stood still, moment next.
BOOM!!!
It lunged forward with its sword, causing the ground behind it to crack instantly. The knight was so fast that, all the players could only see a flash.
"How can it move so fast?!!" The green hair player's face changed dramatically., he planned to dodge, but was a little to slow.
WHOOSH!!!!
"..."
"..."
"…?!!!"
"....."
Deadly silence...

Ouch, that hurt!!
