I suppressed the weirdness in the shelter

Chapter 98 Knight's Guard

Rowling was now completely certain that the hybrid dragon had suddenly shown up.

Although she didn't know why these monsters suddenly changed their behavior and began to actively search for targets to attack, Rowling didn't have time to think about these questions now.

Because the attacks of these monsters were so fierce and their numbers were so large, it seemed as if there were more than ten hybrid dragons living on every tree in the forest, and they could never be killed.

What terrifying creatures! Why are there so many of them? Do they really live above the clouds? Are they sure this number won’t block the sunlight?

Rowling swung her sword at a charging hybrid dragon. The scales on their bodies were very hard and could provide excellent defense.

Just like the sword that Rowling just struck, the force combined with the sharpness of the holy sword would leave a sword mark even if it hit the earth dragon's body.

However, the scales on these hybrid dragons were completely intact, without even a scratch.

Rowling could only use the holy sword as a stick, swinging the sword not to cut the enemies in two, but to knock them away.

But these irrational monsters have no idea what death is. After falling down, they will quickly get up and continue to attack all living things.

Coupled with their terrifying numbers, Rowling didn't think she could stop them.

Rowling looked at Ned behind her and was at a loss for a moment.

If she was alone, it wouldn't be a problem if she was defeated in the end, because she would not die in a dream. Even though being eaten all night was a very painful experience, Rowling was still confident that she could get through it.

But Ned couldn't do that.

She was a fallen person who was taken in by the Fallen Asylum. Her mental state was even closer to insanity than his own. Plus, she was so innocent and kind. The torture of being eaten all night would definitely cause her to have a mental breakdown.

Rowling didn't want to see Ned being corrupted by the resurrected evil, and even less did she want to see her degenerate into a creature.

This was not only to complete the task assigned by Wyatt, but also out of Rowling's own will.

Knights are born to protect. How can a knight allow the person he protects to be harmed?

Rowling planned to go deeper into the cave, but she remembered Wyatt's last words before he left.

"Don't go deep into the cave, just stay at the entrance."

As long as she could enter the narrow area inside the cave, Rowling could stand alone and hold her own, gritting her teeth and preventing any monster from passing by her.

It's a pity that Wyatt had warned us so, as there might be something even more dangerous deep in the cave.

After all, Rowling was once curious about why there were so many caves in this dream.

Now it seems that this is not just a "safe house" to spend the night, the cave itself also hides secrets.

This secret might be more dangerous than the hybrid dragon, and Rowling was unwilling to take this risk with Ned.

It seems that there is only one way now.

Use the holy light sealed in the holy sword to destroy the structure of the cave entrance, rely on the rubble to block the hybrid dragon, and then take Ned and hide in the cave to be safe.

Doing so not only ensured Ned's safety, but also did not violate Wyatt's instructions. After all, he only stayed in the area near the cave entrance. If there was danger there, Wyatt would not let him and Ned hide in the cave.

After coming up with this idea, Rowling didn't have time to consider the safety of the plan and started to implement it directly.

"Miss Ned, back off!"

"Ah? Oh oh!"

Ned obediently took a few steps back, squatted beside the rock wall with her head in her hands, and looked at the situation on Rowling's side with fear and worry.

A hybrid dragon opened its mouth and bit Rowling's shoulder. Rowling just frowned, then reached out and pinched its slender neck, and threw it out with force.

A large piece of flesh was torn off from the shoulder, which was very painful. In addition, dreams were extremely rough in repairing the body, and the lingering pain was unbearable.

Rowling laughed at herself, thinking that she could withstand a night of eating was a bit overconfident. The pain did not cause Rowling to reveal a serious flaw. She quickly adjusted her posture and continued to block the attack of the hybrid dragon. The pain did not seem to cause any slight deviation in her moves.

Each sword is extremely standard, and it can be seen that Rowling has invested a lot of time and sweat to hone herself in her daily life.

During the period of traveling around after graduation, Rowling once doubted whether the daily sword practice was useless. Now it seems that all these efforts have paid off.

Rowling doesn't want to disappoint anyone's expectations anymore.

There was a brief lull in the hybrid dragon's violent attack, and this was exactly the opportunity Rowling had been waiting for.

She took advantage of this time to prepare to release the holy light.

By pressing the button on the hilt, the output of holy light increased sharply. During the period of preparation of holy light, Rowling directly used her body to block the charge of the hybrid dragon.

Their sharp claws pierce the skin and even get stuck in the bones. These monsters pay great attention to the efficiency of killing and will not let their claws and fangs stay in the enemy's body for too long.

But just as they were about to launch a second round of attack, the holy light was already ready.

"Roar--"

The holy light seemed to be their biggest nemesis. The dazzling light made them subconsciously stay away from Rowling.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Rowling raised the tip of his sword.

The holy light bombarded the upper part of the cave entrance, leaving a golden diagonal line in the dream sky.

The rubble fell like raindrops, and in an instant a low wall was built between Rowling and the hybrid dragon.

The height of the low wall is still rising, and the collapsed area is continuing to expand.

Rowling dropped the holy sword and rushed directly towards Ned behind her.

Rowling had anticipated being affected by the collapse, so she had made preparations early on. If this situation really happened, she would use her body to protect Ned.

Rowling protected the petite girl under her body. The angular pieces of gravel hit her back. Her skin, flesh and bones were damaged by the impact again and again, but were repaired by dreams.

Thanks to the extraordinary people's strong physique, the injuries were not that serious, but the pain of constant injuries and repairs was very torturous.

As for pain, the chivalry that Rowling is proud of is the best defense.

The collapse stopped and the cave became exceptionally quiet; even the sharp screams outside could no longer be heard.

Rowling took a few breaths, not caring about the pain in her body. She groaned and began to resist the gravel pressing on her body.

"Ugh!!"

Rowling stood up from the rubble and knelt on the ground. It was pitch black in front of her eyes, so she could only rely on touch to confirm Ned's condition.

She felt something hard with a different texture, and something furry, like hair.

It must be Ned’s dragon horn. Fortunately, she is fine.

Rowling suddenly felt relieved. She felt like she was going to faint at any moment.

In a trance, she seemed to see a faint light coming from the depths of the cave.

The light became brighter and brighter, and gradually the cave was almost filled up.

Rowling recognized the object of light.

"Is this... a mural?"
