Chapter 1121: Chapter 772 Demigod

The golden knight’s large golden shield was cleaved in two, and he himself crashed heavily to the ground.

However, as the guardian of this stage, the moment he was knocked down, he relaxed his body, twisted, rolled, and quickly got up swinging his long halberd.

But as he was rising, he saw his mount, the golden warhorse, turn its head and unleash a fireball at him.

Golden Knight: ?!

In fact, it was because Li Changhe had already landed on the golden warhorse’s back, his feet planted on it, disregarding the vigorous resistance of the golden warhorse.

Riding EX was activated in an instant, forcibly seizing control of the warhorse.

When his Riding skill was at level A, Li Changhe could already take control away from Dog Brother. And he had mastered various vehicles.

Now, Li Changhe’s Riding ability had reached EX, surpassing his mastery of ’vehicles’ even further.

Theoretically, he could even replace the captain of the Dream Cruise, becoming the true controller of the Dream Cruise.

After all, that captain had only Riding level A. If necessary, Li Changhe could even take the Dream Cruise from her hands.

So at this moment, the golden warhorse neighed, without any hesitation, it turned its head and launched a fireball attack on its former master.

The golden knight roared out loud, his long halberd flashing with crimson lightning. He swung it, directly shattering the fireball.

At the same time, the other knights did not hesitate to immediately launch their attacks. With the golden knight’s delay, they had successfully surrounded Li Changhe.

A heavily armored knight wielding twin swords, the moment he got close, performed a somersaulting whirlwind double slash, the frosty twin swords aimed at the golden warhorse’s legs.

Another knight, armed with a scythe, swung it through the air from a distance, and a golden blade circle slashed through the air, speeding swiftly towards Li Changhe.

The closest knight, holding a two-handed flame sword, touched the tip to the ground to leap up, somersaulting mid-air, then came down with a slash. A dazzling flame traced an eye-catching ring of fire in mid-air.

Apart from the golden knight, these knights were no ordinary foes either.

Faced with the siege of several knights, Li Changhe who stood on the horseback, seemed unmoved.

Underneath him, the warhorse suddenly sidestepped, dodging the knights’ attacks with an inconceivable angle and immediately spat a fireball in the face of the first knight.

The second knight’s blade circle missed as well due to the warhorse’s sudden movement. The third knight, having missed his attack, was kicked in the chest by the golden warhorse’s hind leg and sent flying several meters.

The knights were all shocked, instinctively turning to the golden knight. It was as if they were saying, this horse didn’t seem this strong in your hands.

However, they were not given time to be astonished, as the golden warhorse neighed and galloped towards the checkpoint. Clearly intent on forcing its way through.

After all, the distance of several hundred meters was a matter of seconds for the golden warhorse.

Some knights roared angrily, seemingly giving orders.

At the same time, on the walls of the checkpoint, soldiers maneuvered heavy crossbows to aim and fire.

The volley of crossbow bolts, however, twisted strangely and veered off course as they approached the golden warhorse, failing to inflict any damage on either the horse or Li Changhe.

The soldiers at the gate of the checkpoint, however, decisively lowered the heavy metal gate which crashed down.

Only to find the golden warhorse aiming straight for the wall, and at about ten meters away from it, leaped up in one bound.

"Foolish, the walls of the checkpoint are over ten meters high, even the golden warhorse cannot leap over them!" thought the knights, as they sped up to chase, hoping to catch him in a trap.

But they saw, at the apex of the leap, the figure on the horseback vanish instantly.

Following that, the warhorse landed with a thud, shaking its head, appearing somewhat confused.

The golden knight then let out an enraged roar. A large number of soldiers were mobilized, and the converging twisted beasts were killed in a venting frenzy.

In reality, Li Changhe had already infiltrated the interior of the checkpoint.

Using the warhorse to approach the wall, he was ready to use Shadow Step. As the warhorse reached the peak of its jump, Li Changhe used Shadow Step to appear behind one of the soldiers controlling the crossbow cannons on the wall.

He had entered the checkpoint’s inner sanctum without the guards even noticing a whisper of his presence.

While the knights were still searching for him in the wilderness and atop the city walls,

Li Changhe had already infiltrated their abode, right under their eyelids, so to speak.

Owing to the previous encirclement, there weren’t many defenders inside the checkpoint.

This made Li Changhe’s infiltration considerably easier.

Donning the Dark Feather Cloak, Li Changhe quietly evaded the watchful eyes of the guards.

He discovered a room guarded more stringently. Two knights stood at the door, with a patrol of soldiers walking by nearby.

Yun Ting, using Mental Perception, confirmed that there was no one inside.

After pondering for a moment, Li Changhe used an earth-traveling technique in the corner of the room.

Although the curse on this area had been devoured by Old Lead and was gradually regenerating, it could not hinder the earth-traveling technique at the moment.

Shortly, Li Changhe entered the room, curious to find what treasures it held.

"So it’s a meeting room..." Li Changhe surveyed the room’s layout.

The small room was filled with dust. For some reason, the soldiers guarded it closely but never bothered to clean it.

In the center of the room stood a large table that bore a map.

The table flanked by exceedingly large chairs, likely meant for the knights.

At the head of the table sat an elaborate yet aged black stone chair.

Li Changhe approached the table, glanced at the map, and quickly recognized it as a map of Godfall Canyon, marked with numerous buildings and landmarks.

The lengthy canyon had many tributaries, and at each significant junction, a fortress or checkpoint stood defiantly.

Gauged by the power system of this world, it represented a terrain that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

One would need to breach at least seven checkpoints or fortresses to traverse the canyon from the outside world without a map, perhaps even more.

Additionally, the map indicated military routes and supply points for the forts.

"An army on the march...could it be the one assembled by the Demigod?" Li Changhe mused as his gaze swept over the map, "Sadly, that Demigod ultimately failed and even fell within the line of defense he erected."

"That means this principal seat...was it the Demigod’s?" Yun Ting analyzed in his mind, "After the Demigod’s death, did his followers choose not to clean this room as a way to honor him?"

"We’ll find out soon enough. Let’s see what sort of character that Demigod was," Li Changhe said, looking at the stone chair as a subtle light flickered in his eyes—Hawk Eye Magic Eye, activate!

Triggered by Tracing Insight, Li Changhe saw the blurry figure of someone sitting on the stone chair.

The figure was clad in golden armor and draped in a black cloak, with a massive black bow on his back, as if he were commanding his subordinates.

Many knights around him forcefully thumped their chests in what seemed to be a show of deep respect for the Demigod.

Even though his face was unclear, the lingering impression left by his phantom projection exuded an indescribable aura of command.

"Also an Archer, I instantly feel a sense of kinship," Li Changhe chuckled lightly as he gazed at the great bow carried by the Demigod, always considering himself to be an Archer.

But unexpectedly, the phantom projection on the stone seat seemed to notice him and then looked away, continuing to discuss something with the knights.

A thought struck Li Changhe—this was no illusion.

That piercing gaze seemed to cross the span of centuries, locking eyes with his own.

Could a mere replay of the Demigod’s residual traces give him such a sensation?

Could it mean...
