Chapter 09 The Traitor

Chapter 09 Traitor This chapter is free

The black knight Lear rode a bone horse and looked coldly at Van Doren's body and several skeletons that had turned into pieces. Although they were all subordinates of the leader, Lear could not afford to be a necromancer apprentice. In

In the eyes of the Black Knight, Van Doren is just a coward who only dares to hide behind skeletons and play tricks. A true brave man will not hide behind his companions when he encounters an enemy.

Of course, even if he doesn't like Van Doren, Lear still has to obey the leader's order, find the murderer and take his soul back. The two skull dogs are sniffing hard around Van Doren's body, and then the souls in their eyes

The fire suddenly lit up and ran forward along the road.

"Follow everyone!" Lear raised his black-gloved hand and gave the order, then took the lead in urging the horse to follow. Behind it were a dozen skeleton warriors and several zombies, heading in the direction Roger left in a mighty manner.

Run away.

Roger didn't know that he had been targeted by undead creatures, and he just wanted to go to the safety of Rose Castle to avoid the limelight. Under the leadership of Mike, he and others set foot on a rugged and difficult path, slowly

Head towards Roseburg.

As a hunter, Mike was very familiar with this terrain. After the sky darkened, he took everyone to a cave to camp. The cave was as big as a basketball court, and Roger and others didn't feel crowded at all when they came in.

Allen and others were very conscious of being servants and started busy building the camp without waiting for Roger's instructions.

The women found long grass nearby to make a temporary bed, and gave the softest and driest long grass to Roger. Mike had already lit a bonfire in the cave, and then led a few men to look for food.

.A woman made some hot tea and asked Lisa to deliver it to Roger first. Everyone was not blind. They all knew that the master had a very good impression of the girl, so the task of serving Roger personally was naturally given to her.

"Master, please drink tea." Lisa carefully handed the tin cup filled with hot tea to Roger and said, "It's not hot anymore."

"Ah, thank you!" Roger took the cup and took a sip. Although the tea tasted ordinary, it made him feel great.

From the beginning of camping until now, Roger has not even moved a finger, but he is already lying on the dry and soft long grass to warm himself up and drink tea. And there is a pretty and lovely maid waiting beside him. He is treated like this.

I don't even think about the other world.

"Alas... we can be considered as enjoying the treatment of nobles now." Looking at Lisa's pretty face that was flushed by the firelight, Roger couldn't help but sigh to himself: "The decision to agree to these people to follow me was so right!

"

Just when Roger was sighing, Mike and a few people had already hunted a giant-horned deer and returned. The others immediately got busy to help Mike handle the prey. Although Roger didn't do it at all, after the best piece of meat was roasted,

It will definitely be delivered to him first.

Seeing everyone busy, Roger was in a good mood. He needed a lot of materials to build the castle, and it would definitely not be possible to rely on the strength of one person alone. But if he could recruit a group of hard-working men, then this would be nothing.

There was a problem, which also made Roger plan to recruit more people. But now he didn't even have a safe place to stay, so this plan could only be implemented slowly in the future.

Just when Roger was planning for the future, a warning sign suddenly arose in his heart. Knowing that it was the spear militiamen he had deployed outside the cave who had discovered the danger, Roger quickly shouted: "Everyone, be careful!"

As the warning echoed in the cave, the spear militiamen who had been standing by the cave had formed a defensive formation under Roger's command, protecting everyone behind them. Only then did the others react.

They all stopped what they were doing and looked at Roger with a solemn expression in puzzlement, wondering why he suddenly lost his composure.

At this time, Roger didn't have time to explain to others. He nervously stood at the entrance of the cave and would not hesitate to order the spear militia to attack whenever there was any threat.

In the unsettling silence, a figure appeared at the entrance of the cave, making everyone feel uneasy. However, when he slowly walked into the area illuminated by the bonfire, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Many people had already cleared their faces.

Apparently, I knew that this young man named Vader was also one of Roger's followers.

"Vide, didn't you go looking for food with the others? Why did you come back alone?" A man who was familiar with Vader came up to him and asked, "The others..."

The man's voice stopped abruptly, and a sharp arrow shot out from the darkness behind Vader, directly piercing his chest. The man's eyes widened as he stared at the tail feathers of the sharp arrow on his chest, and fell to the ground struggling with astonishment on his face.

After a while, he took his last breath.

While the man was struggling painfully, a group of undead creatures silently walked into the cave. These undead creatures, skeleton warriors, accounted for the majority, and there were also a few zombies mixed in, and the most eye-catching ones were two

There were skeletal archers holding short bows, and the arrow just now must have been shot by one of them.

Behind these undead creatures, a knight wearing black leather armor and riding a bone horse slowly walked in. Although his face was completely covered by the same black helmet, the light blue soul fire in his eyes was

He was jumping non-stop. The knight's whole body exuded a physical pressure, making everyone who saw him feel as if a big stone was weighing on his heart.

This sudden change stunned Roger's followers. Everyone was surprised by this scene, and no one knew what to say.

"Vade...you brought these undead creatures, right?" Roger was the calmest of all, and he slowly said: "How dare you betray me...have you forgotten that you swore an oath to the Supreme God?

What?!"

In the Toulonzo world, the gods are not just legends but real, so the oaths sworn to them are also very binding. After listening to Roger's accusation, Wade also thought of the terrible consequences of breaking the oath. It turns out that it is not good.

His face became paler.

However, Vader soon thought of the terrifying existences behind him. For him, the imminent danger was obviously more terrifying than the high gods. Thinking of this, Vader's face became better, and he said to Roger with a shy face: "I'm sorry.

Mr. Li, although I have sworn an oath, life is still the most important thing. The knight has already agreed that as long as I lead him to you, let me continue to live!"

Vader's words immediately attracted everyone's contemptuous gaze. It was already despicable to betray others in order to survive, but he actually shamelessly said it in public. His character was really bad.

Everyone's reaction made Vader a little uneasy at first, but when he thought that they would soon be killed together with Roger, Vader's mood quickly improved.

"No matter what you think, I don't care anyway!" Vader said triumphantly to the others: "You will be killed soon, and I can still live. That is the most important thing!"

Looking at the proud Vader, Roger felt that he was very pitiful. He actually believed that undead creatures would keep their promises. It would be more practical to hope that the Supreme God would suddenly come to save everyone. But of course Roger was not in the mood to explain this to Vader.

He glanced at the other person with contempt, and then focused all his attention on the guy riding the bone horse.

Speaking of which, Roger had dealt with undead creatures several times, but none of them put as much pressure on him as this knight in black armor. Roger instinctively felt that this guy would come to Toulon on his own.

The first powerful enemy I encountered after joining the world.

This undead creature on horseback was the black knight Lear. He followed Roger all the way here and met Vader and several others not far away. After witnessing his companions being killed by the undead creatures, Vader decided to

He betrayed the others alive. That's why Lear was able to find the cave quickly. At this time, he was also looking at Roger with curious eyes.

The black knight with rich combat experience could tell at a glance that Roger was the leader of these humans. Moreover, those spear militiamen also made Lear feel a little threatened. He felt that with the strength possessed by this human being, it was really possible to kill Van Doren.

Just as Roger and Lear were sizing each other up, Wade couldn't stay any longer. He didn't want to stay here anymore, so he quickly walked to the black knight and said with a flattering smile: "Sir Knight, I have brought you here.

Can you let me live as we agreed?"

Lear glanced at Wade silently, and then nodded without saying a word.

"Thank you, thank you!" Vader happily thanked the Black Knight, then turned around and walked out of the cave.

However, before Vader could take two steps, he heard an eerie voice behind him: "Tear away flesh and blood!"
