Chapter 1739 - 1028: Peerless Wolf Knight

"This, this, this... it’s the fresh Artorias!"

"Looks a hundred times stronger than the one in the Painting World!"

"So cool!"

Upon seeing Artorias unleash unrivaled fury among the Abyss Monsters, everyone exclaimed with delight.

The events unfolding before their eyes couldn’t be more typical of a hero saving the day, the descent of justice by the advent of a hero!

For some inexplicable reason, the vast number of Abyss Monsters suddenly found courage and charged at Artorias, as the densely packed monsters made the black sea surge into a tsunami, and it was the Wolf Knight who tore the tsunami apart.

The Abyss Monsters hardly had time to show off before being torn apart alive, whether their mutated claws or spells from the Abyss, Artorias parried them all. The Wolf Knight’s Shield in his hand held immense resistance against the Abyss, the light emitted from the shield enveloping Artorias entirely, so even letting one or two Abyss spells slip through wasn’t a big deal. Those dark magic spells couldn’t break through the protective shield.

Even if they managed by luck to break through the protective shield and hit his body with an extremely low probability, don’t forget there’s the silver necklace as a second barrier.

[Silver Necklace]

[A silver necklace engraved with the emblem of Knight Artorias, one of Yanor Londo’s ancient treasures, specially gifted to the knight who challenged the Abyss]

[Once used, it can make the Abyss Darkness retreat, especially effective against magic]

On Artorias, this necklace automatically releases its effect, perfectly deflecting all Abyss Magic that gets close.

As for himself, his swordsmanship and stats were far beyond expectations, even when surrounded by a group of Abyss Monsters, he didn’t show any signs of fatigue. Each Wolf Jump inevitably brought blood and storm, the pitch-black Great Sword cleaving through the monsters completely.

Maru and the others, even with the King’s Soul activated and jumping in, could only achieve similar results, but just from watching this bloody scene, they always felt Artorias could fight much longer than they could.

"Let’s go help, too, and take down this group of Monsters in one go." Chaos, like a competent member of the Skyrim Strategy Group, pulled out the Image Stone and began recording this rare scene.

Artorias was currently at the peak of his condition.

Having suffered no Abyssal corruption at all, both his arms and legs were intact, the Great Sword and Big Shield perfectly placed in his accustomed hands, this state was far better than the one in the Painting World.

Thus, under his lone offensive, the ocean formed by Abyss Monsters quickly receded, achieving the effect of suppressing the enemy forces single-handedly!

It seems likely that Maru and the others might join in and annihilate the Abyss Monsters completely, then naturally converse with Artorias and team up to take on Manus.

Wait a minute, historically speaking, Artorias supposedly didn’t defeat Manus?

Never mind, history is history, and now is now; now we have our invincible adventurers here!

The Master of the Abyss has become just a target with a price on his head!

Yet, just as everyone was reinvigorated and set to battle alongside the Wolf Knight, reinforcements for the Abyss Monsters suddenly arrived.

The ground kept cracking, one Abyss Monster after another emerged from the lightless underground into the town, their appearance was swift and startling, almost in the blink of an eye, filling the gaps left by the slain monsters.

"Gasp—" Upon witnessing this, everyone present couldn’t help but suck in a breath at the rapid spawn rate of the Abyss.

Chaos suddenly jumped towards a building near Artorias at this moment, this bold maneuver prompted Tami to repeatedly call him back.

The monsters around them had initially been cleared out by Artorias, but with Chaos’s startling leap, the ground suddenly sprouted Abyss Monsters, refilling the vacant space.

He tried to further approach the Wolf Knight, but the overwhelmingly increased number of monsters piled up to form a twisted human wall, he couldn’t possibly break through the monsters’ obstruction.

Whenever Chaos tried to approach, he faced attacks, and stepping back, the monsters turned their weapons towards Artorias.

Even the most oblivious person witnessing this knew what to do next.

"Let’s go, treasure the time Artorias has fought to secure." Tami said.

Although Tami spoke of treasuring the time Artorias gained for them, he knew internally that he was following the arrangement of the Sain Dungeon.

In the Sain Dungeon, while adventuring, often you encounter events without a choice, like now.

It seemed they had plenty of choices, such as helping Artorias resist the Abyss Monsters. If someone more chaotic were here, they might even choose to help the Abyss Monsters backstab Artorias, but all these choices were purely hypothetical.

Just a glance at the Abyss Monsters obstructing Chaos’s actions a moment ago clarified their course of action; the only thing they could do now was turn around and escape.

Escaping, a task that was not explicitly stated but necessary within Sain Dungeon.

So, let’s leave.

Someone in the group cast a longing look at Artorias before turning to join the main force’s stride.
