1829 The Knife That Destroys the Sky and Earth

After the eleventh knife rain, there were so many knives on the ground . They were all over the place, and there was hardly a place to step .
Han Sen’s feet walked across the handles, and Black Steel was standing in front of a knife . Han Sen thought the knife looked fairly normal .
But Black Steel looked surprised . He pulled it out carefully and held it with both hands . He happily said, “This is a Duke weapon!”
“It doesn’t look like one . ” Han Sen saw the dim-looking light of the blade, and felt impartial towards it .
“We are in the Knife Grave . It is still sleeping, mind you: the power is suppressed . Once you leave this place, you’ll be able to see how great this is . ” After that, Black Steel gave the knife to Han Sen . “The knife you have wanted me to find you is this . Now, we no longer owe each other anything . ”
“You don’t want it?” Han Sen waved it around a bit . It felt great, but Han Sen was not wholly satisfied .
“There is still a lot of time to go, so there is the chance I’ll be able to find another . ” Black Steel continued walking . He didn’t look back once .
Han Sen followed Black Steel for a long time, and marveled at the amount he knew about the place . After the eleventh knife rain, there were many more higher-tier weapons on the ground . But finding something of Duke class was still not a simple task . Aside from having the ability to spot one, you’d need more than a modicum of luck .
On that giant planet, which was covered in millions of knives, finding a Duke weapon would be harder than finding a needle in a haystack .

There were more higher-tier knives, but the ordinary ones still rained in countless numbers . The ratio of good knives and bad knives didn’t change, though . There were just more of both .
Black Steel had randomly given Han Sen the Duke knife, which had surprised Han Sen .
The land was wide . Han Sen and Black Steel were like two ants, afloat in a sharp sea . Knives were everywhere, and the sight of them made Han Sen’s eyes go funny .
Han Sen swore he had never seen so many knives in his life before .
Time passed, and Black Steel was unable to find another Duke knife . He hadn’t been able to find a Marquise one, even .
It looked like the Duke knife had exhausted both of their luck .
Boom!
The ground began to rumble as the volcano of knives began to rattle and shake again . The pillar fired up into the sky and illuminated the clouds . It made the sky look like an ocean of lava .
“Again!” Han Sen shouted at Black Steel . He pulled out the Duke scimitar and looked up at the crimson clouds .

Black Steel raised his head and stood up straight . He was holding two knives now . One of them was the horse knife, and the other was a short knife . The latter was an Earl weapon .
Boom!
The lava in the sky rumbled and roared like thunder . The knives came soaring down, dripping with the steel juice of their origin .
The sky was filled by what looked like an endless display of meteors .
Han Sen looked grim . They were all Viscount weapons, and they were accelerating as they descended to the ground with full power .
Han Sen was holding a Duke weapon, but its power was asleep . Han Sen needed his power to activate it . But being the Baron he was, there was a limit to what he was able to do . So, all he had to rely on was the sharpness of the blade itself .
In the eleventh rain, Han Sen had seen how powerful a Viscount’s sword could be . He and Black Steel had barely managed to hold on and make it through . This knife rain was much scarier than the eleventh, though; that much was for certain .
Pang! Pang! Pang! Pang!
All the knives came racing down like a barrage of infinite missiles . They annihilated the earth, as countless knives shattered into pieces .

The scariest thing about all of this was how the knife rain was falling . It wasn’t a shower; it was a fuH-on heavy rain that did not seem to relent .
Han Sen was waving his Duke knife . He clutched it tight, swinging at every knife that looked set to land on him . His finesse insured none touched him .
But Han Sen only had one knife, and he did not have a shield . He cut the knives that were raining down from directly above, but he wasn’t able to cut the ones that were in his proximity .
The falling knives exploded when struck, shattering . Many were broken, scattershotting Han Sen . They gave him a number of cuts, proving his Baron armor could not stop them .
Black Steel was faring much worse, though . Han Sen had mutant blood power, so his wounds would not bleed . If he hurt his skin, he could still keep going . But Black Steel could bleed, and he was soaked with the many lacerations that covered his body .
The knives rained down like a bombing run . It was scarier than the blitz . At least bombings sometimes provided a gap or berth to breathe: these knives wouldn’t stop for a moment
Han Sen’s Duke knife was sharp, but hitting those knives made his arm numb . His hands slowly began to crack .
The knife rain, after lasting ten minutes, showed no sign of stopping .
Han Sen and Black Steel were fighting the knives back-to-back . They both held a side, and slowly, things began to get better .
“This knife rain is lasting too long! We can’t hold on . We have to leave!” Han Sen shouted, as he continued slashing and slashing .
“You go first! I haven’t found the knife I am looking for,” Black Steel said, while swinging his knife like a madman .
“I’ll give you mine, and I’ll take any,” Han Sen said .
“It’s yours, not mine,” Black Steel said calmly .
“Are you crazy?” Han Sen kept swinging his knife .
“You leave first,” Black Steel insisted, continuing to wave his knife .
“F*ck no!” Han Sen slashed, cutting through a number of knives that were about to skewer his head .
Boom!
The sky trumpeted with thunderous sounds again . The lava in the sky seemed to explode . The rain poured from the sky . Knives! Countless knives!
The knives came down like a torrential flood . They streamed down from above with the strength of a raging river . It’d be enough to destroy the sky and earth .
