Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Orgrim plunged into the huge mouth of Black Worm, and the white color was instantly swallowed up by the darkness without any ripples.

The tendrils swinging in front of Delia and Zemor paused slightly, and then began to wave again.

Hegmer broke free from the tendrils entwining himself, and swung his giant hammer frantically close to Black Worm, trying to find the signs left by Orgrim in its mouth, but countless small tendrils came at him again, and again He stopped where he was.

"Orgrim!"

"Can you hear me? Orgrim! If you hear it, please reply! Orgrim!"

Haigmer kept calling Orgrim's name in the direction of Black Worm, but the only response to him was the endless sound of tendrils breaking through the air, and the sound of the White King and Black Worm fighting.

The results of the plan seem to be self-evident.

"Hagemer, Delia, Zemor, stay back!"

The White King shouted loudly, very puzzled in his heart. If Black Worm has something in common with his body, the weakness must be the core of its body. But now Orgrim's silence hints at him everywhere. An error in judgment directly led to the fall of a knight.

After hearing this, Delia and Zemore were ready to pull out the bone nails and evacuate, but Hegemer was still swinging the giant hammer vigorously, staring at Black Worm. The sudden violence on his body made them both People feel strange.

"Brother! Retreat quickly! We can no longer continue the plan now!"

Delia's tone was anxious, but Hegmo didn't react at all until she repeated it the first, second, and third time.

"What about Orgrim! What should he do?!"

"Are we just going to give up on him?!"

Hegmo suddenly turned his head to look at Delia, his eyes were slightly bulging with anger and covered with bloodshot eyes. He couldn't tell that he was the kind 'big brother' from before.

Zemor tugged at the hem of Delia's skirt and shook his head at her, signaling with his eyes that they should retreat first.

Seeing that Hegmo still went his own way, Delia sighed helplessly, and the two of them retreated to the White King's side.

"Your Majesty, Brother Hegemer..."

"I understand, just leave it to me."

The White King held the bone nail and drove straight in. Wherever he passed, the tendrils were like catkins floating down, unable to stop him in the slightest. Not long after, he came to Hegemer's side.

"Have you been affected by void matter?"

The breath exhaled by Hagmo made the White King easily detect the abnormality. This was probably because when he sacrificed his life and entered the mouth of Black Worm just now, he was contaminated with the void material full of resentment, coupled with the death of Orgrim, The negative emotions he had suppressed for a long time were easily provoked by the void material and turned into what he is now.

Fortunately, the situation was not serious and he still maintained his sense.

King Bai put his hand on Hegemo's back, and the pure energy slowly moved towards his body. Then wisps of black smoke evaporated from Hegemo's body, and his confused eyes gradually became clear.

"King! Orgrim..."

"Evacuate here first, and we'll talk about Orgrim later."

Haigmo's deep voice did not conceal his sadness. Little did King Bai know that the big man in front of him cared more about his teammates than anyone else, but in the current situation, relying on his lonesome courage was no better than a moth. Put out the fire.

......

Isma sat cross-legged inside the lighthouse and breathed a long sigh of relief. She looked at the tendrils in the sky outside the window and the occasional vibrations under her feet. She couldn't let go.

King Bai seems to be saying that as long as she is hurt again, she may be left with hidden diseases.

Then as long as she is more flexible and helps, she won't be hurt.

Isma nodded, feeling more and more that she was right, and prepared to adjust her breath for a while before rushing to the battlefield to help others.

"Your Majesty the King! Leave it to me!"

Orgrim's passionate voice passed through the window. It was much quieter, but it was still easily caught by Isma's ears.

"That guy Orgrim, isn't he doing something stupid again..."

Isma's heart that had just calmed down began to fluctuate again. She knew Orgrim's temperament. The guy didn't think about himself at all. He always wanted to be the first to deal with any trouble.

Although this is not a shortcoming, she always feels uncomfortable, even if it is for her to do those stupid things.

He should take some responsibility for himself.

The more Isma thought about it, the more her heart fluctuated.

"No, I have to go see him...ugh!"

She took a long breath. After calming down, she slowly stood up, but on the way to her feet, her heart throbbed inexplicably. Although it was only for a moment, it still made her a little suspicious.

"Isn't there any hidden illness left on my body..."

Isma clutched her chest and murmured to herself, walking towards the outside of the lighthouse, her steps becoming more hurried, already impatient to see the figure that worried her.

"Your Majesty, how is the battle going?"

In order to act more naturally, she decided to say hello to King Bai first so that her purpose would not be so obvious.

But after she finished asking, she secretly glanced around and saw no sign of Orgrim. What was even more strange was that the other three knights were more or less deliberately avoiding her gaze, which made her She had some bad premonitions.

"Isma, why did you come out? Didn't I tell you to rest in the lighthouse?"

The White King said softly, but Isma no longer paid attention to what he said. Her eyes swept across the crowd, looking towards Black Worm waving tendrils, towards the deep pit on the ground, towards Looking above nothing.

Not here, not there.

There was no sign of that guy anywhere.

Where did he go?

Isma didn't want to look for Orgrim anymore, so she turned around and walked to the knights on the side, her voice trembling slightly.

"Drea, where is Orgrim?"

"Zemore?"

"Brother Hegmo?"

All three of them lowered their heads and remained silent. Isma's tone became more urgent and panicked. She turned around and walked directly to King Bai, her eyes filled with hope, but King Bai could see that there was helplessness hidden in it.

"Your Majesty, you must know, right? Where is Orgrim?"

King Bai put his hand on Isma's shoulder, and a white light appeared, making her feel much calmer.

"Isma, you must be mentally prepared for what I will say next."

The three knights lowered their heads, not daring to see Isma's reaction.

"Orgrim was sacrificed."

When Isma heard the word 'sacrifice', her body felt like a bolt from the blue. She froze in place for a moment. Two lines of clear tears fell uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes, and she kept mumbling: "No." It's possible...how could that fool...how could he..."

She looked up at Black Worm in the distance, her legs instantly softened, and she knelt on the ground.

Isma's body trembled, and the injuries that had just recovered soon rebounded again. Bright red flowed down the corners of her mouth. Her eyes were already out of focus. The huge grief was about to shock her to the point of losing consciousness. When she fainted on the ground, a strange feeling Change happens again.
