Although it is almost noon, a sad gray color appears in the dim sky over the battlefield, as silent as a winter day when heavy snow falls from morning to night. The earth is silent black, extending into the thick fog:
A dead-looking heather drooped to the ground.
Beside the wall outside the wall, the black bark is almost the same as the soil on the ground. It may rot and collapse at any time and become one with the ground. In fact, the twisted appearance may even make people doubt that this plant
How on earth did it take root in a place like this?
"The enemy is not a large group of people... Otherwise, they would have already surrounded us. Even if the number is only half of ours, they can make up for it through the undead. But the problem now is that they can easily cause us losses."
Elena stood next to Edward, looking at the gray fog in the distance. In the misty gray, there seemed to be little shadows constantly shaking: "I can defeat most of the undead, but the magic can only barely
It's just first aid, and if it's completely exhausted, it can only treat one or two seriously injured patients... It would be great if we had a priest accompanying us."
"They were a group of lucky hunters. They originally expected to find a few fat short-haired rabbits, but instead they encountered a group of fat sheep."
Edward smiled and retracted his gaze, pausing slightly on the white skin exposed under the paladin's helmet: "If I were that hunter, I wouldn't expect to capture these fat sheep in one fell swoop. That's beyond my limit. I just want to capture as many as possible."
Just kill them, and if you want to kill more, you have to try your best to cause confusion to them. Otherwise, even a group of sheep's hooves and horns can still kill several hunters in a charge. Typical hemp pole shooting
The wolf is afraid of both sides."
"But they don't know the value of these fat... I mean, these noble knights. Otherwise we will be very passive."
The paladin nodded, but then rolled his eyes at the person who guided the speech because of his gaffe - but it obviously had no effect, because the culprit laughed heartlessly. ===.∞b∞

"What do you want to ask? If it is based on the current situation, then my strategy is the same as that of Viscount Rudolf, which is to light the beacon and wait for reinforcements. Although this small outpost is somewhat dilapidated, we need to find a few points to hold on to.
It’s not like Hourglass can’t hold on until reinforcements arrive.”
Although it was almost half covered by the helmet's visor, the slightly angry expression still made Edward's heart move slightly: "If it's anything else, well, as for what happened in the morning, I can only say that you came in time to save me.
Got my..."
"Stop joking, and don't remind me of that incident! Otherwise, I will handcuff you until the end of this internship!" The paladin's voice froze for a moment, but then softened, and the mask could not hide it.
Blushing blush on cheeks: "But don't you have a teleportation scroll with you?"
"I'm sorry, I can't use that kind of thing yet, and it's worthless to carry it with me." Edward curled his lips: "Even if there is, I can't use it. I thought I told you before?"
"Please don't be angry, I just feel, I just feel..."
"You think a cunning guy like me always has some ways to save his life?"
"Yes. You never take the initiative to tell others anything, but it's not cunning, but the wisdom of mages, isn't it?"
"This is just another way of saying it... Arguing is not what a paladin should do.
Edward shook his head angrily and amusedly, but in fact, he was not opposed to this way of relieving his nervousness - at the far end of his sight, in the twisting gray mist, only he could see more things -
—Swaying like a mirage, keeping a distance from this dilapidated outpost, but at the same time tightening the ambush circle in an orderly manner.
The enemy has sped up, they must sped up.
Because the beacon lighted quickly.
Just when Edward turned his attention, the billowing black smoke had already reached a height of dozens of feet. The knights had each obtained a tower shield and began to form a formation relying on the walls inside the outpost.
It has to be said that Lord Rudolf is still somewhat majestic - or at least the tense atmosphere can bring obvious benefits, at least it can make the rich second generation realize that they are now in the enemy's camp rather than traveling in the mountains.
The dangers of playing with water are not just words. Unless you like to report to the God of Death first and let him give you a suitable journey.
But Edward didn't want to get involved.
"When you are in a truly serious situation, separate yourself from the timid fools and weaklings, and be clear about your mission and destiny. This will give you enough courage and reason to travel where no one dares to tread.
Domain." The spiritual crystal servant slowly climbed out of the shadow of the hood and looked around his mirror-like body: "If you follow my advice, you'd better not get too close to these unlucky people. It's necessary.
When, they can be your shield
"What's the meaning?"
"I feel some unpleasant disturbances..." The voice of the spiritual crystal servant fell silent, steady and dry: "I can't explain it yet, but it is very dangerous."
Edward
The main body of the first wave of attacks is still the undead.
Although not as terrifying as the giant combined corpses, the agile steps of these attackers are even more frowning - their hunched bodies show a deeply rotten ocher color, and are hung with tattered and decayed clothes.
The fabric is in strips, but it moves surprisingly quickly, without the stumbling of a zombie at all. The knight
Wave's feather arrows were dodged without achieving any actual killing purpose. Before the third wave opened their bows, the undead came to the outer wall of the outpost from the edge of the mist!
The close distance makes those rotten appearances look even more disgusting, but in the rotten eye sockets, a deep dark red color replaces the pupils, making them seem to be able to express that crazy bloodthirsty impulse.
What's even more peculiar is that they are extremely developed, showing a strange kind of open forelimbs - the yellow bones extend there for several inches, and the sharp ends actually have a metallic reflection!
"This is a zombie! Their fingernails are highly poisonous, so don't touch them! They can move even if their heads are cut off. Their joints must be broken!"
The paladin issued a loud warning and took a few steps forward. The long sword in his hand had already passed over the bodies of the three corpse demons. The gushing positive energy burned away the bodies of the undead like strong acid, leaving them untouched.
A scream that made teeth and bones hurt was squeezed out of the completely corrupted throat!
The noble knights at the rear let out a cheer, but they were like a duck that was suddenly choked: they couldn't laugh anymore - the spears in the hands of the regular knights penetrated the bodies of more than a dozen corpse monsters,
But just as they put their guns away, some huge shadows jumped up from the zombies in front of them!
To be precise, they are some shadows that are expanding and growing. They were originally stained with mud and rot, and their appearance was no different from that of corpse monsters. With the jumping movements, they expanded. In almost a short breath, they had far exceeded the figure.
Height of an ordinary person!
The muscles swelled as if they were inflated, and were covered with thick hair. Almost in a breath, the originally thin and shriveled corpse demon had turned into a huge beast. Its body over eight feet rushed forward, with a simple lance.
The tip of the spear just pierced their tough and smooth skin
, had been jammed to death by the huge force. The solid jujube wood gun barrels burst one after another, and the gun holder and the armored body weighing three to four hundred pounds were pushed back directly. A few particularly unlucky guys were even thrown away.
Up in the air! The wood is dancing in the air uu@Shao Shan囝
"Lycanthrope! Change to magic weapon!"
The commander's voice rose a little higher, but he did not lose his composure, but then he stopped for a moment - in his sight, the long bow in the hands of the companion in black robe not far away made a sharp buzzing sound.
, a shadow rushed towards him!
There was a soft clanking sound, and the arrow was knocked away by a sharp blade.
The commander reflexively took two steps back and looked at the figure who had just stepped out of the void. The figure was slender and tall, wrapped in black clothes. He looked a bit elegance of the legendary elves, but the sharp blade was
It is full of spikes, has a weird shape, and flows with silver light! His figure also does not fall to the ground, floating like flying leaves in the wind, with a cold breath of death.
But this shadow just flashed and then retreated, just like a real light and shadow.
Edward squinted his eyes and noticed that the other party disappeared into the air again, just as suddenly as when he appeared - he could not be seen near the original movement trajectory, only the unique ripples of spatial disturbance were trembling slightly - the other party was not
It has become invisible, but has entered another space.
"Damn it!" he cursed.
The psychic tendons suddenly contracted, tightened, and relaxed, drawing an arc in the air like a stone bullet thrown by a trebuchet, and then turned over in the air!
Kick away a ball that just flew up and was thrown in the direction of the paladin!
Phew!冖＝asbs.∞#★b婷｜Valerian Shanshan Eucalyptus 锱
The ball didn't fly very far. The moment it hit the ground, it exploded with a terrifying muffled sound.
Yes, with the terrible muffled sound, a series of changes occurred.
First of all, it’s a strange rotten smell, okay? This simple word can’t actually describe this smell accurately at all. To be more precise, it is feces, rotten organic matter plus hydrogen sulfide and concentrated
The sour and bitter stench mixed with the smell of sulfuric acid is concentrated ten times or almost. Even from a distance of dozens of feet, the terrible smell still rushes into the nasal cavity like a living thing.
Wantlessly ravaging every olfactory cell.
This is not the green body, but just the smell.
One can imagine how it would be a nightmare within a nightmare to be sprayed in the face by such a ball of stuff, even if the person who suffered it was a paladin protected by divine power.
"How vicious." Edward murmured. After landing, he reached to his waist and pulled out a three-edged dagger and a black thing!
But just when he was distracted, Edward was shocked by the strong wind coming from the side!
The sound was so close, and the illusion on the cloak didn't seem to affect the opponent's judgment at all. The hunter twisted his body reflexively, trying to avoid the surprise attack. However, the surprise attack was much faster and faster than he imagined.
He imagined it was much heavier - the moment before the hunter tried to move, it had already arrived first and reached his side!
Snap!
The mage's armor flashed into an entity, pushing the metal away a little, but then it collapsed into countless fragments with a click! Then, the moment his toes occupied the ground, Edward jumped to the side reflexively!
However, it seemed that it was still too late - after the loud noise, he only felt a dull pain under his ribs. When he stepped back, his ribs made a snapping sound - the opponent's sharp blade cut open his robe, and he was pushed by the chain armor.
But that's not the problem. The problem is the power that exploded from the opponent's hand at that moment.
Created an astonishing sheep-head-like force field,
Edward's body rolled in the air, just like the ball he had just kicked away. It rolled in mid-air, collapsing the outer wall of a fortress, and fell heavily to the ground. It turned around a few more times before reluctantly stopping!
"Ahem..."
The fishy sweetness in his throat frightened Edward! The hunter could even clearly feel his heart stopping for a while due to the heavy blow. Even with the defense of chain armor, the inherent weakness of this armor is that it is extremely poor at buffering power.
, so the power still caused him to be injured.
No, perhaps what shocked him was the fact that the opponent came to him silently - this was the first time since he obtained the kind of vision that could see through all illusions that he could not detect the whereabouts of an opponent.
The power of the attack just now was extremely terrifying. When Edward noticed it, he had already flown hundreds of feet away from where he just landed! From a hole in the wall,
Falling outside the outpost wall!
"Very strong."
The air flickered and turned into ripples, and then a large dark red shadow emerged from it. "It is indeed very strong. You actually jumped back to avoid the attack. For a spell caster, your reaction is very sharp." He
He continued, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice: "And you are very cautious, and you don't even hesitate to wear armor. Oh, or you are not a spell caster, but you just value the protective spells on that robe? Then you are even smarter.
.”
"Aren't you going to help your friends? Ahem... Although they are indeed quite powerful, it is still a bit difficult to deal with a dozen knights."
Edward stood up slowly, feeling that all the joints in his body were whining, but he stared at the bright red robe - the long hood that almost covered most of his cheeks, and the wide cuffs were somewhat similar to the mage's robe.
But the belt around the waist makes it more suitable for flexible movement.
The red robe stood quietly, seemingly not paying attention to the battlefield between a dozen knights and werewolves.＝＝＝.∞b∞..∞★b｜霺Val嬲駗锱
"No, that is our mission, to carry out some harassment to Heyman City to help the Imperial Army win. But from the beginning, my goal is you, I am waiting for you to walk out of the castle, waiting to leave the defense, waiting for you
Relax your mind and prepare for this moment."
"Obviously you didn't succeed..." Edward stood up straight, stretched out his hand to press the broken bone on the side of his chest, and pressed hard. With a slight clicking sound, a layer of oily sweat instantly broke out on his head.
If it were not for the effect of self-hypnosis, the pain in Duan Lei's ribs would not be bearable by ordinary people, but the advantage is that subsequent actions will not cause more terrible pain like burning.
It can also create a psychological deterrent to opponents.
In fact, if he added one or two healing spells, his body should be able to recover as before, but Edward did not do this - the healing spell on the chain mail is also one of his trump cards and cannot be completely controlled by others.
,
"No, I succeeded, or in other words, there was something wrong with my thinking from the beginning. I didn't expect that your companions, huh, the main target they protect is not you, but just those stupid idiots. Although
I don’t understand what these guys value compared to the owner of an artifact, but now, you are easily separated, so I win.
"But I'm curious, what exactly do you want to do with me?"
"Haha, stop pretending. You know exactly what I want to do with you. Don't insult me, and it's best not to insult yourself. Be prepared. Although coming back to this world will consume too much power and physical things.
But how long can you hold on?"
Edward squinted his eyes, and the noise seemed to disappear. It seemed that only the sound of metal was heard around him. Everything was silent, and the only sound echoing in his ears was the wind.
So he tensed every muscle in his body, held the dagger tightly in his sleeve, and locked his eyes on his opponent's breathing and heartbeat lines. There was a metallic taste in his mouth, as if all the water had been evaporated, and he was so dry.
horrible.
He should be a spell caster, I don't know if it is a divine spell or an arcane spell, but the unique halo on his body and the unique scent of a spell caster cannot be hidden from Edward.
But it’s not just that…
"Not necessarily my friend, not necessarily." Edward let out a sinister laugh. The other party's invisibility was very disadvantageous to him, but that didn't mean that our protagonist had the slightest concern for them.

For example, this power is called Erase Consciousness.
This thing is somewhat like an invisibility spell, but it is different from the invisibility that changes the path of light through the law of distortion to deceive vision and can be heard and smelled. It is psychological invisibility - everything is happening.
It’s just that for the person being manifested, all the actions of the manifester are artificially ignored.
——It does not cover up sounds, smells or any non-visual factors, but in the perception of the unlucky guy affected by this psychic energy, there will be no presence of the manifester at all, or even some people related to him.
Objects. Even if a door opens and closes as a result, or something flies unnaturally through the air.
Of course, the shortcomings are also obvious. As long as a general invisible spell is cast on oneself, most people will ignore the existence of the caster, but this psychic power can only affect one target.
