Chapter 345: Killing someone with a borrowed knife
"Holy water!" Seeing Vatel rushing towards him, Roger flipped his wrist and threw a cup filled with liquid towards it.【】
What undead creatures are most afraid of are these things that contain sacred power. Wattel, who had just suffered a bitter experience, instinctively shrank his head and hid, and his steps involuntarily slowed down.
However, although the cup still hit Vatel accurately, he did not feel any pain. The cup contained only ordinary wine, not the holy water that undead creatures were afraid of.
Holy water is not tap water on earth. Just turn on the faucet and a bucket will be poured out. Holy water is originally taken from pure mountain spring water. After it comes from a distant place, it must be prayed for by high-ranking clergy for a long time.
, can it contain abundant sacred energy and become a weapon that can restrain undead creatures.
When ordinary people enter the cathedral, they have to show enough piety, and the clergy just dip their fingers into a little holy water on the believers' heads. This is already considered a great honor. Roger showed his identity as a noble, and then donated
He spent a large amount of money to express his piety, and only then did he get more than one glass of holy water. All the holy water had been used up just now, and now Roger could only use fine wine to scare Vattel.
"Idiot!" Roger coldly laughed at the embarrassed Walter, then turned around and ran away.
Taking advantage of the few extra seconds, Roger ran directly towards the nobles gathered in the distance. Wattel, who was repeatedly angered, followed closely, hoping to kill this annoying human before the guards arrived.
Kill.
However, Roger's flexibility was far beyond Vattle's expectations. He ran to a nobleman in a few steps, and then hid behind the man in a flash.
In his rage, Watter had no intention of avoiding him. The soul fire in his eyes was burning, and he rushed directly towards the noble who blocked him.
The fierce-looking Wattle rushed towards him, and the nobleman was so frightened that he peeed. Of course, the nobleman wanted to avoid the oncoming Wattle, but Roger quietly punched him in the waist, immediately causing the unlucky man to die.
The ghost lost the ability to move.
"Don't..." As soon as the panicked noble said a word, Vatel had already rushed in front of him. After restoring his true appearance as an undead creature, Vattle would certainly not disguise himself with a polite mask like before. Only
Seeing its sharp claws thrust forward, it tore the unfortunate guy in half in an instant.
Blood mixed with internal organs splashed all over the floor, and the two halves of the corpse fell to the ground. This bloody scene frightened other nobles, and two ladies who were close by screamed and passed out.
But at this critical moment of life and death, no one cared about the two unconscious people. Everyone fled to both sides, not wanting to be the unlucky ones blocking Wattle.
In the midst of the bloody chaos, Roger had already run far away. His eyes swept over the frightened crowd, and he immediately changed direction and rushed towards the left corner of the hall.
There were several nobles gathered there. When Roger ran over, they were not shocked, but it was already too late to run away. Roger hid behind them at a dizzying speed, and Vattel, who was following them, had already started driving.
He gave up the killing order, no longer hesitating at this time, and swung his sharp claws several times, turning those nobles into corpses on the ground.
Roger took advantage of the opportunity of Vattel being blocked and quickly ran in the other direction, where he had already chosen the target. It was almost exactly the same as before. Vattel, who just wanted to kill Roger, killed everyone in the way.
There were people in front, but Roger took this opportunity to slip away again.
"There are seven left..." Roger, who seemed to be running for his life, looked around calmly, and then looked at the other two guys who were on the list provided by Anna.
If anyone is calm enough at this time, they will find that the people killed by the undead Vattel are the nobles who are usually loyal to him. Roger, who is running for his life in panic, leads Vattel to him every time.
His most loyal subordinate in the past. This is why Roger asked Anna for the list. He had planned from the beginning to use Vattel's hands to uproot his influence in the Kingdom of Thorne.
After several screams, several more nobles became the victims of Vattel. So far, more than 20 nobles have died under it. The thick smell of blood filled the hall, and seven hundred and eighty
The fallen corpses formed a horrific sight that frightened all the nobles.
In fact, among the nobles attending the ball, there were still many capable people. However, everyone was here to attend the New Year's ball, and no one carried weapons at all. Who would have thought that the important ministers of the kingdom would suddenly turn into undead creatures? So they were all beaten.
caught off guard.
In addition, no one knows how powerful the undead Vatel is. How can these nobles who are usually pampered and enjoy life to the fullest dare to take risks? The members of the palace guard are all on guard, and they have never thought of participating.
The guests of the ball have not yet received news of the appearance of undead creatures in the hall, let alone expect them to come to the rescue.
Although Alonso III has several personal guards, they are all focused on protecting His Majesty the King. As for other nobles being killed by undead creatures, these people neither have the power nor want to care.
For these reasons, Vatel was like a human being in the hall, and he actually killed twenty-eight people in a row. Many of them were his former confidants, and many of them were the kingdom's established nobles and many people.
An important minister with real power. After such a series of killings, the power that Walter had worked so hard to manage was almost completely collapsed, and just as Roger said, he himself became the enemy of the entire Kingdom of Thorne.
In fact, in the list Anna gave Roger, there were still a few of Vatel's confidants who had not been killed. However, these guys were quick-thinking and had already hid with Alonso III. Roger hesitated for a while, but still didn't.
Take Vattel to the king.
The king must be protected by a strong person. Even if he takes Wattel there, he won't be able to kill anyone. Instead, someone with ulterior motives will use him as a pretext to frame the king. Roger would not do such a thing.
Now that all those who can and should be killed have been killed, Roger can finally take action to eliminate Vattel. This guy is his biggest enemy in the Kingdom of Thorne. Now that he can finally be killed legitimately, Roger can't help but feel comfortable.
.
At the same time, Vatel, who had fallen into a rage, also came to his senses. He glanced back at the bloody hall and knew that he had wasted a lot of time in chasing Roger. The palace guards outside would soon come in. By then,
It will be difficult to escape.
When Bievatl slaughtered the nobles, he was very powerful and looked like a super strong man. In fact, his strength was far from that. Because of the limitations of his original strength, the undead Vattel only had silver-level strength. If it weren't for Luo
Jay wanted to use Vattel's hand to get rid of its own henchmen, and he could kill it alone. Of course Vattel also knew his own strength, and knew that if he waited for the palace guard to react, he would have basically no chance to escape.
Although strictly speaking, undead creatures have lost their lives, Vattle is still very afraid of "death". After thinking of this, it immediately stopped chasing Roger, changed its direction and ran directly towards the door of the hall.
Along the way, two unlucky waiters blocked Vattel's path, and as expected, they were dismembered in an instant, causing some ladies to exclaim.
But now everyone has to come out, and Vatter wants to escape now, so the fear of the exclamation has been significantly reduced. Most people are so selfish. As long as their own safety is guaranteed, other people's misfortune will only cause them
was surprised.
"Run!" At this time, there was only one thought in Vattle's mind. It moved forward at the fastest speed. The door was getting closer and closer, and Vattle's terrifying and ferocious face seemed to relax a little.
At this moment, a red figure suddenly appeared in front of the door, blocking Vattel's escape route. Vattel noticed this change immediately, and the soul fire burning in his eyes suddenly beat more happily. It remembered this
The woman in red is Roger's dance partner tonight.
Although Vatel doesn't know the origin of this woman, she is definitely Roger's person anyway. Since he can't kill Roger for the time being, killing his woman can be considered a relief! This is what Vatel thought at this time,
He had no idea what a terrifying existence he had gotten into.
Everyone else in the hall also came to Sophia to block the door, and many men let out a soft sigh. This beauty in red was the most eye-catching woman at the ball tonight, but she blocked the door at this time.
Knowing Walter's path, her fate was naturally imaginable. When they thought that Sophia's hot and alluring body would soon be torn in half, many men secretly cried out that it was a pity.
However, although he felt pity in his heart, no man had any intention of stepping forward to rescue the beauty. Even the men who had been courting Sophia before were hiding silently. This hot beauty is certainly very beautiful.
It's attractive, but it's not that important compared to life.
Some women were secretly proud of themselves. They were jealous of Sophia's beauty, which had attracted the attention of most of the men in the room, and they wished that she would be unlucky. Now this gorgeous woman actually appeared at the door without dying, blocking the undead.
A creature's escape route
, the eyes will turn into a pile of minced meat on the floor, which naturally makes many women very happy. A few particularly vicious women have already shown proud smiles on their faces. Although others are not so happy, they are absolutely
I don't have any sympathy for Sophia.
Just as men and women had completely different mentality, Vatel had already rushed to a place not far from Sophia. It grinned ferociously and raised its sharp claws, and swung it hard at Sophia.
