Alien Knights

Mairis sat in front of the desk, his dry and white eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, calm and calm.

There were manuscripts and pictures in front of him, and a bookcase not far away was filled with various specimens.

The door to the room was opened.

Marcus, who was sewn together by various corpses, was huge and ugly in appearance, cautiously walked into the room, glanced at his father, and sat quietly on the ground without saying a word.

Myris turned to Marcus and whispered, "You're blaming me."

Marcus muttered under his breath.

Mairis: "Don't forget, it was you who wanted to keep her in the first place. What I always thought about was how to send her away."

Marcus nodded first, then shook his head vigorously.

Myris turned around: "You should know that as long as Karin is alive, you cannot leave her behind. Once Throat Bone comes back and finds her, I can't guarantee what will happen."

Marcus raised his arm and made a vicious punching motion.

Mairis said helplessly: "Now is not the time to break up with the throat bone... It's not just the throat bone, we can't keep the living Karin in this place forever. As long as she goes out, no matter what is filled in the ground, The undead, or the Imperials on the ground, will tear her to pieces."

"Transforming her into a dead soul and staying with us is the safest way at the moment. But the prerequisite is that she must give up her life."

Marcus was silent.

Mairis let out a long sigh: "I know that your feelings for her made you unable to do anything. I watched that child grow up, and I can't end her life myself."

Mairis's vision gradually became blurred, and he fell into memories: "Marcus, as an old man, I still remember the time in San Sidro Monastery. You were only fourteen years old at that time, and Karin was eleven years old. .You are like an older brother, protecting her no matter where you are."

"When Karin is insulted, you will stand up for her; when Karin gets into trouble, you will do everything you can to help her deal with the aftermath. Once, Karin stole Theodore's experimental materials ——A rabbit, and let it go. Theodore got angry, hung Karin from a tree, let her endure the sun and rain, and ordered that no one could let her down. Do you remember what you did? What?"

At this point, there was a rare smile in Melis's words: "You caught ten big sacks of rabbits, used them as 'atonement' gifts, and threw them all into Theodore's laboratory. Can you imagine Ten big sacks of rabbits. Hahaha, I can still remember that day, that old guy Theodore’s expression when he saw his laboratory being overwhelmed by hundreds of rabbits... As a result, you also Hanged up by Theodore.”

Marcus's body trembled slightly, as if he was remembering the past.

Melis slowly stopped smiling, looked at Marcus, and said word by word: "But, like you, you are unwilling to let her go, and you are unwilling to end her life. Sooner or later, before she dies, She’ll go crazy first.”

Marcus raised his head when he heard this and made anxious gestures with his hands.

Mairis waved his hand: "My son, the time has come to make a decision. If you keep her, you have to kill her with your own hands; otherwise, you should give her freedom."

Marcus stopped moving and froze.

In the cell, Karin sat on the ground, still immersed in shock and fear.

The old monk he knew when he was a child turned out to be the mastermind behind the black plague. He was no longer even a human being, but an undead spirit.

Karin grabbed her arm hard, with only one thought in her mind.

Everything you know here must be told to Todd.

Just as she was thinking hard, there were heavy footsteps again in the corridor outside the door.

Distinguishing the master's footsteps, Karin said to the door: "Why are you alone? Where is your master, the old man who wants me dead?"

Marcus opened the iron door and looked at Karin without saying a word.

Karin moved back and whispered: "That bastard old man refused to do it himself, so he let his servants do these dirty things?"

Marcus took a step forward, looked at Karin's neck, and continued to remain silent.

Karin moved back again: "Get away from me!"

Marcus stretched out his huge arms and slowly moved towards Karin's neck.

Karin had no retreat. She raised her head and said loudly: "I would rather be burned to ashes in the fire than become a monster like you!"

Marcus' palm stopped just five centimeters in front of Karin's neck. This creature, which looked like a corpse-stitching monster, slowly showed complicated emotions in its eyes when it looked at Karin.

Marcus grabbed Karin's arm and pulled her up from the ground. Then he picked up the bread and sausages in the corner and strode towards the door.

"Let me go! Where are you taking me?!"

Ignoring Karin's struggles and shouts, Marcus made an inarticulate sound and walked along the corridor toward the exit.

Karin, who was pulled to her feet, stumbled forward.

Soon, she heard the sound of dense footsteps and piercing screams ringing in her ears.

She knew this voice.

This sound has appeared in Taylor City before, coming from the tide of parasitic corpses.

Marcus slowed down, looked at the parasitic corpses swarming at the end of the corridor, opened his mouth, and let out an earth-shattering roar.

The movement of the parasitic corpse was stopped by the roar.

Some living corpses began to retreat, but more of them were attracted by the living breath of Karin, and moved closer to Marcus step by step.

Marcus pulled Karin behind him, spotted the fastest parasitic corpse, grabbed its head, squeezed it gently, and shattered it instantly.

Grabbing the parasitic corpse that fell limply to the ground, Marcus threw it forcefully, knocking down a group of enemies.

After kicking away the squirming black parasites that fell to the ground, Marcus took a few steps back while protecting Karin.

Soon, the second and third parasite zombies attacked Karin.

Marcus stretched out his arm as thick as a tree trunk, and purple flames suddenly rose above it.

With a forceful wave outward, the purple flames instantly surged, forming a huge wall of fire that burned straight along the corridor.

In an instant, nearly a hundred parasitic corpses were burned into piles of black charcoal.

Marcus turned around, lifted Karin up, let her sit on his shoulders, stepped over the parasite remains on the ground, and walked quickly towards the exit.

In the darkness of the corridor, Mairis' figure slowly appeared.

He watched Marcus and Karin leave and said softly: "My child, when life and death meet, how will fate be chosen?"
