I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 336: Escape and prepare to leave

"I'm really surrendering this time, believe it or not." Alpha looked at the dark knight outside and slowly approached, and immediately begged for mercy. There was a hint of trembling and helplessness in his voice, because he knew that facing such a powerful enemy, he could not fight with his own strength alone.

This time, everyone Alpha cared about was sent away, and he no longer had any regrets. As for Jenossen, they were not familiar with him, and Alpha had no intention of rescuing him. He knew that the most important thing for him now was to save his life so that he could make plans later.

"You said we believe it or not." Trusgaia raised his lips, obviously not ready to let them go easily. His eyes revealed a kind of coldness and ruthlessness, as if telling Alpha that their life and death depended on his decision.

"Savage, can you keep up with me?" Alpha handed the last potion of fighting spirit to Genoson. This was his last means of survival. He knew that only by relying on the power of this potion could they have the strength to compete with the Dark Knight in a short period of time.

"There's no way. The teleportation array has been closed. It can't be opened again within an hour. We can't hold on for an hour." Jenossen seemed to have given up struggling. His eyes were full of despair and helplessness, as if he saw the tragic fate he was about to face.

"If you believe in me, then follow me." Alpha still has a magic scroll. This is their chance, but they must fight their way out. He knows that only in this way can they escape the pursuit of the Dark Knight.

"You can't escape. The Dark Council Chairman has woken up. None of you can escape." The Night King knew that the last one to make a move was their king, the demon king who could tear apart space. His voice was full of confidence and arrogance, as if in their eyes, Alpha and the others were nothing more than ants.

"That guy is still asleep, don't worry about it." Jenossen also knew that the one who pulled them down was the Dark Council President, a terrifying creature more powerful than the Pope. However, the other party had not really woken up, so they still had a chance. A glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, as if he saw a glimmer of hope.

"Then let's fight our way out." Alpha's eyes were determined, and a powerful force was gushing out of his body. This was the first time he used the Wings of Chaos, a legendary powerful skill. He knew that only by relying on this power could he break through the encirclement of the Dark Knights.

"Who gave him the wings of space?" The Night King roared angrily. Chaos Wings were called wings of space and wings of death by them. Because they were as fast as lightning, they were called wings of space; because they consumed too much energy, they were called wings of death. But no matter what it was called, it could be called one of the fastest skills.

As the Night King roared, he felt a powerful force coming and he was knocked away. In the blink of an eye, the Night King was knocked 10,000 meters into the sky by Alpha. Of course, Alpha also followed him up to the nearby area.

"You will surely die if you fall down like this!" The Night King looked at Alpha, who was breathing heavily, with a mocking smile on his face and said, "Do you think you can escape from my grasp like this?"

"Then you can go down with me." Alpha gave up the action of controlling his body to fall at high speed and responded: "If you are not afraid of being smashed to pieces, just follow me!"

"Madman." The Night King stared at Alpha's accelerating figure, and an unprecedented sense of uneasiness surged in his heart. He knew very well that with the speed Alpha was showing at the moment, if he rashly chased after him, even a being as powerful as him would most likely be smashed to pieces during the high-speed fall.

The Night King frowned, with a complex light flashing in his eyes. He was not afraid of failure or injury, but was shocked by Alpha's desperate and almost crazy speed. He realized that such a speed was beyond his control, and continuing to chase would only lead to unnecessary sacrifices.

After a brief thought, the Night King finally made a decision. He took a deep breath, slowly retracted his steps, and gave up the direct pursuit of Alpha. He knew that sometimes giving up does not mean failure, but a wiser choice.

The Night King used dark energy to slow down his descent. His back looked a little lonely, but his steps were firm and powerful. He knew that the battle was not over, but just a temporary pause.

Alpha continued to sprint forward at an astonishing speed, as if trying to break through all constraints and pursue endless freedom and victory.

During the fall, Alpha had no way to slow down. It was not because Alpha did not want to do so, but because he had exhausted all the strength in his body when he used the powerful skill of Chaos Wings.

Once this almost one-time skill is activated, it will release all the energy instantly, and it cannot be controlled or adjusted at all. Therefore, at this moment, Alpha can only let himself continue to accelerate and fall.

Just when Alpha was feeling desperate, a figure suddenly jumped up hundreds of meters from the ground. It was the wild man Jenossen. Without the Night King's obstruction, the others did not dare to confront Jenossen head-on. Jenossen was so fast that he arrived beside Alpha in the blink of an eye.

With a deafening roar, Alpha and Genoson hit the ground heavily. The collision produced a huge impact force, causing the surrounding dust to fly, covering the sky and even causing the earth to tremble.

If Alpha's body had not been strengthened by the dark power, such a collision would have been enough to kill him on the spot. But even so, he was still seriously injured.

When the smoke gradually dissipated, a group of dark knights, led by the Night King, quickly surrounded the area. Their goal was clear: not only to capture Alpha and Jenosson, but also to torture them endlessly. Facing such a powerful enemy, Alpha and Jenosson's situation became extremely difficult.

"How is it possible? Where are they? Dig deep to get them out." The Night King roared, his voice full of anger and unwillingness. They lost a lot of resources in this battle, and the enemy escaped successfully. If they fail to capture these people, their status in the Dark Council will be greatly affected, and they may even face the risk of being excluded by other forces.

However, the ground in front of them had been torn apart by the battle, and the huge cracks extended for hundreds of meters and were bottomless. For two humans, it seemed to be a very simple thing to escape in such an environment. But this was a dark space, a place that was almost isolated from the outside world. Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for anyone to escape from here.

The Night King roared again, and then immediately turned and rushed to the headquarters. He knew that no matter where the enemy fled to, they would eventually need to pass through the teleportation array to leave this place. As long as the teleportation array was guarded, those who tried to escape would sooner or later come to the door. Thinking of this, the Night King quickened his pace, secretly vowing to seize this opportunity, recover the previous losses, and deal a heavy blow to all those who dared to challenge his authority.

"It seems that we have really escaped. I didn't expect that the Church gave you so many things, even the magic scroll of fixed-point teleportation." Feeling the fresh air, Genoson knew that he had really escaped from that dark environment.

"That's not for me." Alpha lay on the ground motionless. He was so tired and really wanted to sleep here forever.

"Are you from Edward's family?" Now that the crisis is over, it's probably time to settle grudges.

"No." Alpha didn't even open his eyes. "I am myself. I don't belong to anyone else. If I had a choice, I would not join the Church."

"The power of light in you is so pure, it is something only a devout monk can possess, and you still say you are not a lackey of the Church." I'm afraid that hatred from love is what this means for Jenossen! Jenossen once gave everything for the Church, but in the end he was betrayed by the Church and captured by the Dark Council, and the Church ignored him for more than a hundred years.

"Don't confuse the Holy See with its personnel. They cannot represent the Holy See. I don't think there is anything wrong with the Holy See. The ones who are wrong are the people who control them. They distort the facts, disregard doctrines, and don't care about the lives of believers." Alpha knew that he could not leave the Holy See. At this time, he had to convince Genoson to transfer his hatred for the Holy See to certain people.

"You risked your life to save others, and you are a member of Edward's family. You still say that you are not his?" Genoson's eyes were full of murderous intent. It was obvious that all the pain he had suffered over the years was caused by Edward.

"The badness of one person does not represent the entire family. Besides, if I don't rescue Athena, I will not be able to survive. Besides, Athena is also Arthur's apprentice. They are not from the same system." Alpha now wants to distance himself from the Pope.

"What are you going to do now?" The murderous intent in Genoson's eyes had dissipated a lot, but such a master didn't seem to need to show any murderous intent when killing people. He was just trying to scare Alpha just now.

"Let me see the situation. If this place is far from the city of Alman, I will go directly back to my own territory. If the distance is close, I will notify the people in the city and then return to my own territory." Alpha made up his mind not to continue to be a target or cannon fodder here.

"Your own territory?" This confused old Arthur. The Holy See only had their own area. Unless they were the Knights of Light stationed in various empires, but considering Alpha's age and strength, it was impossible for him to become the leader.

"Yes, I am different from others. I am not in the Vatican headquarters. My mission is to find the scattered holy rings of the Vatican outside." Alpha did not hide anything. After all, old Arthur was once the Pope, and his secrets were open to others.

"Waste, I didn't expect that the holy ring could not be found after being lost outside. The Holy See has declined to such an extent." Old Arthur still had feelings for the Holy See. His complaints at this moment were more like watching his own children being angry at them for not fighting for it.

After a long explanation, Alpha and Old Arthur finally eased Old Arthur's doubts temporarily. However, Old Arthur was not the kind of person who could be easily convinced. He decided to check the surrounding situation in person to make a more accurate judgment. If Alpha was found to have any deception, with Old Arthur's strength, Alpha would not be able to escape.

"Get up quickly, someone is coming from a distance." At this moment, old Arthur suddenly shouted.

Although Alpha was reluctant, he still managed to get up. His face was full of fatigue, and it was obvious that he was very tired from the experiences during this period.

"Let's get closer and take a look." Alpha suggested, while carefully observing the surrounding environment. This seemed to be the outskirts of the city of Alman, but he remembered that it was still cold winter when he left, so how come it has become warm early spring now? This is obviously wrong. He has only been away for a week, and the seasons have changed so quickly, which is really puzzling.

"The time in the dark space is inconsistent with that outside." This is the only explanation Alpha could think of. In that mysterious place, time seems to pass at a different speed, causing the change of seasons in the outside world.

"Hey, this is Graya's team. Why are they still here?" Alpha looked at the team of dozens of people in front with a puzzled expression on his face.

"Glaya! Come here by yourself." Alpha shouted loudly from a distance.

"Abra, take everyone and keep moving forward. I'll be back soon." Hearing the familiar voice, Graya immediately handed the team over to his subordinates and rushed towards the figure in the distance.

"Lord Alpha, you are finally back. They all said that you died on the battlefield, but I don't believe it." Graya excitedly threw herself on Alpha.

"Don't be so excited. Tell me about Alman's current situation." Alpha quickly pulled away the excited Graia, otherwise old Arthur in front of him would have taken action.

"Lord Alpha, you have been missing for almost a month. Lady Athena and the others returned safely the day before yesterday, but there was no trace of you. They all said that you died in the dark space. I was scared, but Sister Gilliana told me that you would be fine." Graya explained simply.

"I'm back, don't tell anyone." Alpha had no intention of continuing to work for the Vatican in Alman, so of course he had to leave quietly.

"Well, Lord Alpha, now the people in the city have been almost wiped out by them. This escort is probably the last time. There are about 100,000 knights of light in the city now. They are preparing to attack the dark space. All the knights can no longer come out at will." These messages were conveyed by Glaya through Gilliana. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Glaya to know all this with her identity.

"Where is Lord Arthur?" Alpha asked this question to old Arthur.

"Lord Arthur is still in the city. They are very worried about your situation and are preparing to attack the dark space." Graya's explanation made Alpha frown. Alpha didn't think he was that important. There might be other purposes.

"Well, I'll go to the city of Alman to check out the situation. You go with them and leave first." Alpha knew that he had to go back once, otherwise he would not feel at ease.

"Lord Alpha, I will go back with you. The situation in the city has completely changed now, and you may not recognize the way." Graya was reluctant to leave when she saw Alpha.

"Okay, then you come with me." Alpha looked at old Arthur.

"You guys go over there by yourselves. I'm going to go out and find out what's going on outside."
