Hollow Knight: Hallownest

The wail that burst out from Mo Rong's mouth resounded through the sky and hit Gallian's body.

"Did you make it?"

Mo Rong's body had reached its limit at this time, and he fell straight down before seeing the result.

"puff!"

"This power is powerful, but complicated. It is not my path."

Gallian spat out a mouthful of blood in the air and staggered down, but his eyes were strangely satisfied.

A white figure flashed past and caught Mo Rong who was about to hit the ground. He looked closely and saw that it was Delia who was sitting high in the audience.

After handing Mo Rong to the medical staff, he returned and signaled the referee with his eyes.

The referee was still stunned at this time. After several days of competition, he had never seen anyone so tenacious. Even if his teammates fell one by one, he would not give up the game.

Seeing Delia's eyes, the referee was excited and hurriedly walked to the stage to announce the result.

"Dear viewers, I declare that this guard selection competition is over!"

"Please take a break, we will hold the awards ceremony in two hours!"

Delia also returned to the audience, waiting for the award ceremony, but at this time she felt tired for no reason, so she began to close her eyes to rest.

During these two hours, the three of them, Mo Rong, gradually woke up.

"Did you make it?"

Mo Rong straightened up and looked around, only to realize that the game was over.

Ida and Kui Ruo were standing by, seeing Mo Rong wake up and hurriedly stepped forward.

"How's it going? Are you okay?"

The two said in unison, and Mo Rong waved his hand.

He was already feeling very tired after releasing the spell, but when he was unconscious, he felt a force entering his body. It was a pure and flawless feeling, which made his body feel relieved a lot.

"Did we win?"

The two of them sighed after hearing this, and Ida looked a little disappointed.

"I heard the referee say we lost."

Quiruo patted the two of them on the back and said.

"But we have tried our best, haven't we? At least we have no regrets."

"Qui Ruo is right. We have tried our best. There is no need to regret this. The same goes for you, Ida. You have tried your best."

Ida nodded, but it would be a lie to say that she wasn't uncomfortable. After all, she was only one step away from the championship.

"By the way, Ida, how are you feeling?"

"Me? It's fine. If you rest, it'll be fine."

"No, I mean, do you feel anything different?"

Mo Rong didn't believe that there would be no side effects after pulling out the Dream Nail. Although the dream language would appear in the game, since the soul could be obtained through it, there would be no harm at all.

"A different feeling? Hiss~ It seems to be true!"

"where?!"

"I'm hungry. I didn't eat lunch."

"..."

Yes, he was worried in vain, but Mo Rong was also very strange. In the game, you can get souls by attacking enemies with bone nails, so why not now?

It is estimated that only the shaman can solve this problem.

Two hours passed quickly, and the referee stepped onto the ring and shouted to the surrounding people:

"Friends in the audience, the next step is the awards ceremony of this guard selection competition. Please invite No. 29 and No. 1 to the podium!"

"The awards ceremony? And this?"

When Morong read the announcement before, he didn't see any mention of awards. He thought that the end of this event was just to select guards.

"Yes, yes, it's just some medals. You can't win runner-up and get nothing. Doesn't this dampen people's enthusiasm?"

Ida waved her hand and called the two of them to the stage. Her nonchalant look made people think she had won many awards.

The referee first went to Gallian's side, took his hand and held it up.

"The winner of this competition is No. 29!"

There was a burst of cheers from the audience, and everyone was filled with joy.

"Please, Lord Knight, present the award!"

After saying that, Delia's figure appeared on the ring, holding a shining golden medal in her hand.

Gallian bowed, and Delia put the medal on his chest.

"Is your name Gallian?"

Gallian nodded.

"Galian, are you willing to accept the honor and become a guard to maintain the safety of the palace?"

Ida looked on with sadness.

"I really envy that guy. He has the knight presenting the award in person, and he can go to the palace as a guard. Maybe he can see the king from time to time."

"What's wrong, you want to go to the palace too?"

"Nonsense, I'm just here to be a guard, aren't you two?"

"I came with you because I saw you participating. I really haven't thought about guarding or anything."

"Me too. I got second place this time. My teacher will be proud of me, hehe."

Qui Ruo smiled on the side, as if he had already seen the beautiful scenery of his adventures in various places in the future.

Ida was silent, since he was the only one here to guard.

On the other side, Gallian did not answer immediately after hearing Delia's words. Instead, he was silent for a moment, and then said:

"Lord Knight, may I make a request of you?"

"explain."

"Actually, I don't want to be a guard. Rather, I want to be a knight."

"So, can I challenge you?"

Gallian raised his head and looked at Delia, with no fear in his eyes but full of desire for the strong.

The audience was far away, so naturally they didn't know what was going on, but the three people on the side heard it clearly, and they were shocked.

"What did he say? He doesn't want to be a guard? Then he can steal from me!" Ida said angrily.

"Do you want to challenge the knight? I haven't seen a knight fight yet!" Quiruo looked like he was watching a good show.

"Is it the confidence we gave him?" Mo Rong was dumbfounded when he heard this.

Delia looked directly at Galien in front of her. As a pursuer of strength, she could understand Galien's mood, but this did not mean that anyone could challenge her.

"Okay, but you want to use this championship as your ticket, are you willing?"

"Of course, a championship is not worth mentioning in exchange for the opportunity to fight with you!"

Ida：%￥&*￥#@

Delia took off Gallian's medal, called the referee to her side, and whispered a few words.

The more the referee listened, the weirder his eyes looked at Gallian. Then he nodded and asked the three of them to wait for a moment while he walked to the middle of the ring to speak.

"Viewers, you are in for a treat! Today, you will see the Lord Knight personally taking action to bring you a wonderful battle!"

The audience was still a little confused after hearing what the referee said. Why did the knight take action?

"Team No. 29 has challenged the Lord Knight as the champion. Will the challenge be successful? Let's wait and see!"

After saying that, the referee hurriedly ran off the stage and began to stare at the two people on the ring intently.

"What?! He wants to challenge the Lord Knight?!"

"You can't find your way after winning a championship? Do you still want to challenge the Cavaliers?"

"Maybe it can really happen..."

"You're thinking shit! This is too bad, fifty euros are wasted."

After listening to the referee's speech, the audience immediately became lively. Some people were admonishing and even cursing Gallian for overestimating his capabilities, but most people were booing. Who doesn't want to watch the knights fight?

On the ring, Gallian slowly rose into the air, and the giant scythe beside him began to rotate rapidly. He had been expressionless during the game, and now a lot of cold sweat broke out on his face.

The pressure that Delia gave him was too strong.

"Are you ready?"

Delia took out the bone nails, held her hands on her chest, looked at Gallian in the air and said.

"Ready."

Gallian in the air stared at Delia, who was not far away from his feet, and nodded solemnly.

"The challenge begins!"

As soon as Delia finished speaking, the giant scythe flying in the air quickly fell towards her, with a momentum that was faster and more powerful than in all the previous games.

The joy in Gallian's eyes showed, and he clearly saw that the giant scythe had touched Delia!

But what he saw in the next moment shocked him. The giant scythe didn't pause at all after touching Delia, and passed through her and smashed straight to the ground, smashing her location into pieces.

Looking closely, Delia's figure slowly dissipated, and it turned out to be an afterimage!

"where is the guy?!"

Gallian frantically patrolled the ring, trying to find the disappearing white figure. Losing the enemy's sight during the battle was tantamount to letting the enemy put a knife on his neck.

There was a flash of silver light in the corner of his eyes. Gallian glanced over and saw a bone nail placed next to him. He looked up with a stiff neck. Delia was standing on his back, looking down at him with her mouth open. Opening and closing.

"I'll give you another chance. This time I won't get close."

After saying that, he disappeared on his back and appeared in the dent that was smashed before.

"Are you ready?"

Gallian still refused to believe the fact that he had lost. His throat moved slightly, he swallowed a sip of water and nodded towards Delia.

If he didn't get close, he would probably have the advantage in this battle.

"The challenge begins!"

The giant scythe flew towards Delia again, but she made a move that made everyone confused. Even though the giant scythe was still far away, she had already started to wave the bone nails.

Gallian didn't think so. He thought Delia had thrown some hidden weapon, so he looked around hurriedly, but found nothing. But in the next moment, his hair stood on end!

The giant scythe did not hit Delia this time. To be more precise, it seemed to lose power halfway through the flight and fell straight to the ground.

"I lost."

Gallian didn't dare to move in the air. The soldier's instinct told him that if he moved, he might be killed on the spot.

It wasn't until all the sharpness around him disappeared that Gallian dared to slowly fall down, lowering his head and half-kneeling in front of Delia. Looking at the white figure in front of him, he just felt like a joke.

He lost.

A complete defeat.
