The Witcher: Darkness Falls

This Holy Light Knight is very fast. If it weren’t for the Knight’s Breathing Technique that enhanced Leon’s physique, he might not be able to catch up.

"It's far inferior to McLaren in terms of strength, speed, and swordsmanship skills..." Lyon quickly closed the distance between him and the Holy Light Knight and forced the other party to fight with him.

He swung his sword violently, and the opponent hurriedly raised his sword to block.

Keng——

A sharp sound of metal collision was heard, and the Holy Light Knight groaned, his face becoming extremely ugly.

He leaned forward, but still managed to block Leon's attack.

However, the holy light wrapped around the sword of his knight completely dissipated under this attack and could not be gathered together again.

"The power of God!" the Holy Light Knight roared.

Leon felt the magical power increasing in the other person's body, and at the same time, a powerful force came from his hands.

The Holy Light Knight exerted force suddenly, pushed Leon's sword away, then took a step forward and chopped down with the sword in both hands.

Leon blocked with both hands holding the sword.

Keng——

Sparks flew, and Leon felt his hands sink slightly.

"It's much weaker than I am now, but stronger than when my physique hadn't been enhanced." Lyon immediately had a more accurate assessment of the strength of the Holy Light Knight in front of him.

Moreover, he discovered that the other party's power should have been enhanced by holy light.

He saw the holy light on the Holy Light Knight shrinking into the opponent's body, and the phantom of the holy light heavy armor around the body became more illusory.

Lyon remained calm and pushed his opponent hard, knocking him over.

Then, while the Holy Light Knight had no time to defend himself, he stepped forward and slashed with his sword.

"Shield of God!" The Holy Light Knight roared immediately before he could block.

The holy light on his body gathered violently and formed a knight's shield in front of him.

Leon swung his steel sword forward. Although his sword was forged from a magic-blocking gold alloy, the holy light condensed into a shield still blocked it for a moment, giving the Holy Light Knight time to retreat.

The Holy Light Knight gasped and stared at Leon with an unpleasant expression, “Impossible! Why is your power so strong?”

Leon said coldly: "Because I am a demon hunter, my body has been strengthened!"

The Holy Light Knight still shouted in disbelief: "My body has been blessed by the True God. Even if your body has been strengthened, it can't be this strong!"

Leon asked calmly, “What is the true God’s blessing?”

The Holy Light Knight immediately kept silent.

"Is this the reason why McLaren is so strong?" Lyon thought to himself.

When McLaren invited him to become an apologist, he also mentioned the so-called blessing of the true God.

But when he pressed the issue further, McLaren kept silent.

Apparently, this blessing from the True God is a unique means of strengthening the True God Church against its defenders, or the True God Church’s believers.

Just like the Demon Hunter's mutation potion, it is kept secret.

The Holy Light Knight stared at Leon intently, his body constantly retreating backwards.

At the same time, he tempted, "Demon Hunter, if you retreat now, I will recommend you to the Bishop and directly promote you to the Silver Knight. How do you think?"

"Silver Knight, is this a title for official defenders of the faith? It's really appropriate." Leon thought to himself.

Although McLaren wanted to recruit him, he did not say that he could skip the trainee guardian and directly become a formal guardian.

The man in front of him was far less powerful than McLaren, yet he dared to say that he could directly promote him to a formal protector of the religion.

Oh! It's just a lie.

Seeing that Leon was silent, the Holy Light Knight seemed to think there was hope, so he immediately said: “I know you are very powerful, but what I want to tell you is that I am only a silver knight who has experienced the blessing of the True God once.

As long as you are willing to contribute to the True God Church, you will naturally receive the second blessing of the True God, and then you can be promoted to a Platinum Knight.

You are very strong now, but not as strong as the Platinum Knight! "

Leon stared at the Holy Light Knight in front of him. Although the other party was tempting him, his words now contained more threats.

This is to tell him that if he dares to stop him again, there will definitely be a more powerful Platinum Knight to deal with him.

Just like...

"McLaren should be the Platinum Knight." Lyon thought to himself.

Lyon looked at the Holy Light Knight in front of him and sneered in his heart.

It seemed that the other party thought that he did not know the other Holy Light Knights and had never come into contact with the True God Church.

Otherwise, this Holy Light Knight would definitely not have to use the promise of recommending him to become an official defender of the faith to get out of this situation.

Just kidding, Camaro, the Serious Preacher, and McLaren, the Platinum Knight, can't guarantee it.

Why does he, a lowly Silver Knight, have the right to do so?

"How is it? Even though you are a demon hunter, your mutation has stopped, right? Obtaining the blessing of the true God can make you stronger, and you can also use the power of the true God!" The Holy Light Knight felt that there was hope and immediately added.

"Real God?" Leon looked at the other person calmly and said, "I don't believe in God!"

In the past he would not have said so much. Now he just wanted to get more information about the True God Church from the other party.

But now that so much has been said, the other party is unwilling to reveal more information, so there is no need for Lyon to waste any more time.

He rushed forward and launched an attack.

The Holy Light Knight was greatly surprised, not knowing that there was something wrong with what he said.

"Monster Hunter! I'm here on behalf of the true God, how dare you do this to me!" The Holy Light Knight was anxious and angry.

Leon didn't say another word and just kept attacking.

He found that the swordsmanship of the man in front of him was comparable to his own.

Perhaps it was the suppression of the special steel sword in his hand that caused the opponent to panic, so he made frequent mistakes, allowing him to discover many flaws.

Leon calmly found a flaw and struck out with his sword, causing a lot of injuries to the opponent in a short period of time, with blood flowing.

However, during the battle, he was also observing the Holy Light Knight in front of him.

"Demagic Metal has a strong suppressive effect on magical creatures and magical forces, and it has a more weakening effect on wizards immersed in magic.

But for the Holy Light Knights, it seemed that apart from interfering with their magic, it did not seem to weaken their bodies. "As Leon fought, he thought quickly in his mind.

His special steel sword is made of a magic-blocking gold alloy, which has a significant inhibitory effect on magical creatures.

When he swung his sword at the opponent, the steel sword would get closer and immediately cause the Holy Light Heavy Armor on the Holy Light Knight to fall apart.

However, it did not have much impact on the Holy Light Knight itself.

"There is no magic in his body." Leon concluded.

Otherwise, facing the suppression of the special steel sword, the Holy Light Knight himself should have been weakened.

Just like a wizard.

"Is it a magic system different from that of wizards? Magic does not exist directly in the bodies of Holy Light Knights, so how do they use magic?" Leon pondered.

Neither McLaren nor Bishop Alec, nor the appearance of the golden knight, his witcher medal nor he himself noticed the magical fluctuations.

He could only sense it when they transformed into the Holy Light Knights, and only ordinary demon hunters could detect it.

"Could it be that it was directly bestowed by the so-called true God?" Leon frowned.

He seized the opportunity to knock the sword out of the Holy Light Knight's hand, then stabbed it with his sword, nailing it to the stone wall.

At this moment, the holy light on the opponent's body completely dissipated and disappeared.
