Death Knight - v2 Chapter 9

It was a windless night, and the surrounding plants seemed to stop breathing. The silent trees entangled their branches and weaves a draped curtain that cut off the connection between the ground and the moonlight, while the suffocation took the opportunity to quickly grow until it filled the entire jungle, making everything wet and quiet In the darkness.

But the death knight in it is very clear. The stagnant stasis is just the appearance. Below that, the power from the underworld is violently ramming, making the present world like rippled ripples.

It feels exactly the same as in the village of Belial … Somewhere near not far, the demons who twist the void have come to this world. Roland wondered, of course he could infer what it meant-Cattolic and others must be nearby, because the demon had no reason to come here except her.

The hills of Santill are not the village of Belil. There are no buildings or residents here. Not only that, the dense forest is also very suitable for hiding their whereabouts. Although there seem to be more demons this time, there should be no problem if you want to escape. The death knight recalled the fighting seventeen years ago and made his judgment. But the next moment, the corner of the cold mouth was slightly bent, sketching a self-deprecating smile.

Why … I actually think about her subconsciously … When facing Catoli, not only will the sword in my hand hesitate, but also the eyes will be attracted to it? Like an iceberg surfacing, the snowy morning seven years ago came to Roland’s mind again. The same was the case. When the trembling Catoli flew on her to protect Dilithia, my sword hesitated.

The blood of the person I hated was flowing in her body, and not only that, but now she was going to fight against Ishtoli according to the will of Lucis. She is my enemy ~! How could I be attracted to her?

“Descendants of the enemy? It ’s funny, now the word hate is still binding on you? Or is it because you do n’t know what kind of expression to treat, so you voluntarily turn to the past of hatred?”

“Think about yourself, if you can really understand your heart, maybe Ishtoli will let you know everything one day.”

Richard’s rebuttal and counsel rang again in the ears of the death knight. As if in order to get rid of his hesitation, Roland shook his head vigorously: “Wait until you meet and make plans. After all, the initiative is in my hands. I can choose to fight or hide. Before that … For such a large number of demons, it is unknown whether she can get out of the hills of Santill.

However, the death knight’s thoughts were soon interrupted, and Roland immediately stopped his light steps and pulled out the big sword lost behind him. The snarling growl from deep in the jungle and the moaning when the trees fell to the ground made his warrior instinct quickly wake up and quickly spread throughout the nerves and muscles of the whole body. But even though the death knight was invincible defense, when the violent **** dog came into sight, he was still shocked.

On the back of that devil was a human with a bare hand on his back ~!

The helldog looks very scary. The unmelted ice arrow is still inserted on the left first stage. The completely dead head has been stained red with blood, and the left eye of the middle head has been dug out. The sticky body tissue caused half of the eyeballs to hang near the swollen eye sockets. Not only that, the wounds on the **** dog kept spraying blood outside, making the places he walked with dazzling scarlet, which looked extraordinarily weird under the moonlight.

The severe pain caused by this caused the demon to crash into everything that could be encountered, and plowed the ground with his claws. However, Roland was not stunned by this scene, and he quickly made a judgment-first kill the devil first, and then slowly decide whether the person carrying it on its back has value.

The highly skilled undead warrior immediately moved into action, he elegantly avoided the onslaught of the **** dog, and quickly entered the confrontation distance. The moment the opponent exposed the flaw, the sharp blade of the great sword flew up immediately, and at the moment that reflected the cold moonlight, the front claw of the **** dog was cut off.

The out-of-balance demon sobbed and fell to the ground, and Roland rushed forward to make up a sword again-this time it penetrated its chest, and Frost’s tip accurately smashed the demon’s heart. With the crackling sound of the glass, the helldog’s body immediately stopped struggling, and the jungle returned to silence. The victorious death knight turned his attention to the human being-at this moment he was like a rag and fell to the ground without moving. Roland walked cautiously, turning the opponent over with the big sword in his hand, and when the familiar look reflected in the pupil, the death knight frowned.

The man who tried to drive the hellhound was a companion to Catoli, and also Ren, the Aquamarine. And since he would make such a crazy move, it is not difficult to infer the girl’s current situation.

Does Destiny love me so much? Roland sighed.

Rennes finally recovered his consciousness. The first thing that caught his eyes was the dense branches that blocked the sky, as if a large net was hanging over the Paladin’s head. This scene not only prevented the moonlight from transmitting, but also blocked Rennes’ thoughts. . After a long time, he finally remembered everything that had just happened-he planned to use the crazy demon to highlight the encirclement-it seems that this reckless struggle has succeeded, but … the companions are still in Fahdo German camp.

“Katoli ~!” Rain sat up from the ground, the injured body immediately protested, the pain flowing through the body like a current, he couldn’t help snorting.

“Are you awake? How do you feel?” The demon hunter’s voice rang aside. “I thought water was needed to wake you up.”

“Is it you … Kaos?” Rain turned and looked at Roland. “How are you here?”

“Because I am a demon hunter, there is me where there is a demon.” The death knight lied perfectly for himself, but Rennes did not listen to his explanation.

The Paladin stood up, and for the first time in this face-to-face distance, he carefully looked at each other. Although there was only a few rays of moonlight in the forest, it was enough to outline his face clearly. The silky blonde hair was neatly bundled behind the demon hunter’s head, set off Roland’s delicate features, and those eyes that seemed to be flowing clear water. The Paladin had to admit that it was more appropriate to describe him in terms of beauty than handsome.

But Catoli will definitely not care about you for this boring reason. With her for five years, I know this better than anyone ~! Ryan licked his lips subconsciously while avoiding the other’s eyes.

“What’s wrong with you? Aren’t you hurt?” Roland was surprised by the other’s silence. “And where are they, Katoli? There are many demons around here, and the situation doesn’t seem to be optimistic.”

How bad the situation is, Rennes knows better than Roland. If you can get the assistance of this powerful demon hunter, things will definitely get a lot easier, but the prepared wording came to the paladin’s throat, but was pulled back by some idea hidden deep inside.

If you ask Kaos for help, he will probably impress Catoli … maybe she will invite this demon hunter to join the team again … how good it would be if she could solve the current crisis alone ~! Then Catolie will definitely look at herself differently ~!

“Maybe I’m more attentive. If nothing is wrong, please forgive me.” Seeing Ren’s hesitation, Roland showed a reassuring smile, “but I remember the next time I rode a hellhound. Be careful. “The demon hunter patted the opponent’s shoulder, and then headed deeper into the jungle without looking back.

Wren, you idiot, what are you doing? The paladin’s lips trembled at the sound of footsteps going away. Not to mention a weapon, you don’t even have a stick in your hand. How do you fight against those Fahdodo knights? How do I fight against sword fighting? If you still want to be stubborn … Katori may die ~!

No matter what it will look like in the future, even if I ask that person for help, I can’t let that happen ~!

“Wait … Kaos, please wait ~!” Rain shouted loudly.

“What else?” The death knight stopped, staring at the young man who was subtly hostile to himself.

“Excuse me for my misbehavior, but that ’s because it matters. I hope you understand.” The Paladin bowed his head deeply, letting darkness hide his expression. Get your help, otherwise my companion might be in danger … “

“So, to make a long story short, tell me what’s going on.” Roland nodded.

In the gap between the words, Ray had already cured his body with holy light, but the paladin’s movements could not keep up with the demon hunter during the sprint. The opponent’s pace seemed to be gliding, and the sturdy figure shuttled through the leafy forest, like a ghost under the refraction of moonlight, light and quiet. While Ren is completely the opposite. In order to keep up with Roland’s speed, the only thing he can do is to open a path in the jungle with brute force, just like the **** dog just now.

This level of nerve reflex ability … is he really human? The Paladin felt incredible.

“Did you just say that there is a swordsman among the Hodors?” Roland’s voice floated from the front, interrupting his emotions.

“Yes, he would use sword fighting. If we knew it earlier, we wouldn’t have a direct confrontation with him.” Rennes regretted it. “The power of the attack can’t be countered by the sword at all. Even magical enchantments cannot be defended. “

“It’s a very rare swordsmanship. It originated from the Canados continent and has a strong destructive power. It is the first choice for face-to-face killing,” said the death knight with a shrug. “But if you say duel, sword fighting is deadly Weaknesses. “

“You mean … you can defeat Swordmaster ~ !?” The voice of the young Paladin immediately increased by eight degrees.

“There is nothing certain on the battlefield, but since it is necessary to save people, confrontation with him is inevitable.” Roland said, pulling out frost, “In short, try it.”

The Fahdod’s camp is near, and the flames caused by the flames are spreading rapidly from the east of the camp. The towering fire wall is like a cascading wave rolling on the ground and blocking it. Everything in front of it. The outermost tents were caught in the red light, and at the moment they beeped.

In that eye-catching background, the collision of metal weapons with sharp teeth, the shouting of knights, and the angry roar of the demon have been completely intertwined, and finally turned into a hot wind.

“Some people are retreating, and the knights are responsible for defending against the devil. The tactical thinking is correct, but it seems that the situation is very chaotic,” the demon hunter said to the paladin next to him, and they were hiding in the trees and watching the surroundings. The situation “is a good opportunity. This situation is very conducive to our actions.”

“But how do we find it? Where is Katori? You know, Xiuyin was beaten by a sword and he can’t act now … he has no ability to defend himself at all …” Rain looked at the scene in anxiety.

“This is a cage formation. The Fahdods are specifically used to hold prisoners. The camp is vulnerable to external attacks, so these knights are now so embarrassed.” Roland took a closer look at the tent or The location of the tent wreckage later concluded, “But no wonder they probably never dreamed of a demon here.”

“What about a circle?”

“This camp is set up with tents in a double-circle radiation mode, the purpose is to be able to most effectively guard and isolate the captives-Catori and Xiu Yin must be in some tents in another center, just go there , They will definitely be found. “Roland explained.

“But they may have been taken away ~!” Rennes disputed.

“If that’s the case, according to my way of action, the **** team will definitely be met halfway,” the death knight answered in an unquestionable tone, “go pick a sword now and follow me ~!” Falling, he has jumped out of the bush and landed lightly on the battlefield. At the moment, against the firelight, the golden hair of Demon Hunter looked particularly brilliant.

The angry roar came to the girl’s ears, and then brought the human screams and the muffled sound of the sword cutting the flesh.

It’s a demon … a hellhound, and a fire demon … have the Fahdodo’s line of defense been breached, what happened to Rennes, Shuin, and Josephine? Catoli guessed, frowning a little uneasily. But she was still sitting quietly in the chair, and did not have any intention to escape-the knights outside were still holding on to their posts, Catoli heard their fierce arguments, and the shackles on her feet were too heavy. If you act now, it is likely to lead to an irreversible ending.

Losing patience when there is no hope will only drive away hope that may come, and the girl warns herself. In order to calm down the restlessness, she began to chant the prayers dedicated to Luvis. However, only halfway through, Catoli stopped involuntarily-the quarrel outside the tent disappeared ~!

Should I rush out? When the girl was hesitant, the heavy curtain was lifted open, and a thin figure was reflected in her emerald eyes.

“Josephine!” Catolie’s expression changed from surprise to joy. “Not hurt? How did you escape?”

“It was a long story after the escape, but fortunately there were no dangerous battles along the way,” said the Ranger with a smile. “Captain, am I not late?”

“It’s time ~!”

“First use this to remove the shackles, and then we will go to Xiu Yin.” Josephine said, passing a throwing axe, “pry off the hinge axis, so that the shackles can be released from the feet, just now It is exactly what I have done.”

Although there is still a lot to say, the girl is very aware of the value of time. She just nodded and began to bury her head on her knees. The Paladins were equally educated in mechanics, but Mithril products were much stronger than normal fetters, and after a few minutes-enough time for Catoli to remove the two fetters-biting on the left The shackles on his feet finally loosened.

“We were lucky that no one noticed that the guards had been killed here.” Josephine said that the Ranger had not been idle during this time either. He had dragged the two knights who had fallen out of the door. This not only minimizes the eye-catching degree here, but also solves the problem of Catoli’s weapons-although the Cavalier Two-Handed Sword is not the best for her, at least it is better than facing the Fahdud and the bare hands. The devil is much better.

“Well, pry open your left foot ~!” Catoli took a breath and wiped the fine sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.

“Don’t worry, take your time, now we have the initiative.” Josephine tried to relax the atmosphere, but when he peered out of the crevice of the curtain again, the figure fell into view. But made Ranger’s heart tighten.

The man who defeated them a few days ago, the user of the sword, Austin, was slowly walking towards the tent.

I must protect Catoli, and not let her fight against Swordmaster again, otherwise something will happen ~! Josephine clenched his lips in silence, and after thinking for a few seconds, he went to the opposite side of the curtain and cut a large opening sharply in the tent with the sword in his hand.

“Josephine?” Cattoli stopped the action at hand.

“An enemy is coming, you need to find a place to take a break first, and untie the shackles on your right foot, by the way.” The Ranger explained, handing her a sword, “I’ll take care of it here.”

“But … I can fight already, two people are better than one ~!”

“Trust me, this pair of shackles is heavier than you think. If you don’t remove it from your feet, you won’t be able to exercise vigorously,” Josephine pushed her out of the tent indiscriminately. There are not many enemies here, and I will get away as soon as possible to find you. “

“Are you really okay by yourself?” The girl asked a little bit again, uneasy.

“Of course, otherwise how can I reach an agreement with you?” The Ranger’s mouth rose slightly. “Relax.”

“Be careful, then I’ll go to Xiuyin.” Cattoli nodded determinedly, and the sloppy figure soon merged into the night reddish with flames. Watching the girl go, the Ranger’s heart finally let go, and at the same time, another voice sounded behind him.

“From the enemy’s point of view, you are very sharp, Josephine, the son of the forest.” When Austin saw the big hole in the tent, he immediately understood everything, and the two eyebrows were screwed together.

“Thanks for the compliments, Austin, Chief of the Faldotus Chief Cavalry.” The Ranger slowly turned around, staring at the other side. “Before the outbreak of the Undead War, you and my troops had fought many times, but I didn’t expect to meet old opponents on the battlefield in such a situation. “

“If you could solve it a few years ago, you wouldn’t have so much trouble now,” Austin’s tone was mixed with the cold scent of death. “But I think there is still time to remedy, right?” Sword Master said Pointing the sword in his hand at the ranger, the sharp blade reflected the flashing candlelight, like the bloodthirsty fangs of the beast.

As Josephine stated, Mithril’s fetters are very heavy, and even if their feet are free, they cannot move freely without getting rid of it completely. After running for a while, Catolie, panting, finally decided to remove the shackles before continuing to find her lost companion. Soon, she found a relatively hidden place in the tent, and the girl immediately bent down and started dismantling.

Catoli had to move fast, and she knew very well that the situation in front of her was the most dangerous. Without the companion’s cover, half-kneeling here is almost like a living target, but the bad thing is that while she was worried, there were hurried footsteps not far away.

I would come here at such a time … Obviously give me five minutes to untie the shackles ~! Thinking of being so unlucky, Catoli could not help crying. However, as the voice approached, the Paladin calmed down gradually-she still did not have any certainty of victory, but her body naturally assumed the best assault posture. The girl’s back was close to the surface of the tent, and her whole body’s nerves and muscles were tightened tightly. She seemed to be a catch trap, waiting quietly for the arrival of the prey.

Relying on listening skills, Catoli judged that the enemy was aside, and as long as she advanced a little further, she could see herself next to the tent. She leaped out of the shelter in a lightning flash, wielding the sword in her hand, and slanting it towards the opponent’s upper body-even if this attack could not cut off the first level of the target, it had already caused fatal injuries.

The next moment, the crisp sound of metal friction rang in the air.

“Katoli?” Roland, who was attacked by Frost, was a little surprised, but a slight ironic smile quickly appeared on his face. “You are more energetic than I thought.”

“… Kaos?” The girl couldn’t believe her eyes.

Aside, Rain, carrying a high-ranking mage, stared at the scene in front of him, stunned.

“In short, we have rescued Xiu Yin.” After a brief explanation, Roland concluded. The death knight then waved a sword carefully, and Frost’s Blade accurately split the Mithril tied to the girl’s ankle in half.

“I didn’t expect to meet you at this time.” Catoli’s expression was a little complicated.

“Where there is a demon, there will be a demon hunter, which is a natural reason.” The corner of the demon hunter’s mouth raised a bit. “Let’s go to Josephine first, the others explain slowly.” The Death Knight said Going forward.

Don’t sneak away this time. Looking at each other’s back, the girl thought secretly.

“Katoli, it’s great that you’re okay.” Ryan gave a knowing smile, and the senior mage on his back nodded weakly to the captain.

“Well, thank you very much this time, Rennes.” Cattoli stared at the other side seriously, “Without you, we wouldn’t have got help from Kaos, and maybe we can’t escape the siege … Thank you.”

“It’s nothing, I just did what I should do.” Under the eyes of those emerald eyes, the young Paladin’s face suddenly turned red.

“It’s so modest, it’s nothing like you.” The girl laughed. “Come on, as long as you find Josephine, the team can move forward ~!”

“Well.” Rennes nodded.

That’s right, soon everything can be restored, and you can continue to complete the task entrusted by Luvis. And … this time, I must convince Kaos to join our team ~! With this in mind, Catolie couldn’t hide her mood at the moment, and a smile spread on her face unconsciously.

Just find Josephine, now he has solved those enemies? The girl speculated, but the next moment, the sight in front of her looked like the coldest storm in the north, freezing her smile in an instant.

How could it be … wasn’t it agreed with me … Katori subconsciously covered his mouth with both hands to avoid shouting.

The fiery flame brought by the devil is near, and the winding and twisting wall of fire is like a serpent spitting a letter, making a hissing sound slowly over the cracked ground, and opening its mouth to lick the black Night sky.

Austin was standing in front of this python, and countless golden tinders flying in the air surrounded him, which not only made the edge of the black cape clearer, but also reflected the wild light of the swordmaster’s pupil. Josephine’s broken body fell six meters away from him. There was only a protruding broken bone left in the place of the right arm. The bleak white was particularly dazzling against the large blood.

“Josephine!” The girl rushed up desperately, and raised the unconscious ranger. Until now, she found out how serious Josephine’s injury was. Not only was the right arm below the shoulder joint truncated, but his upper body was cut from the left shoulder to the right abdomen with a deep and wide wound. This extremely brutal force pierced a hole-no doubt, this is a masterpiece of sword fighting spirit. At this moment, these horrible wounds were extracting the blood of the Ranger without care, and spraying it out forcefully. It was just a blink of an eye, and Catoli’s clothes were dyed red.

“Ryan, drop Xiuyin, come and help me, hurry ~!” The girl quickly ordered.

“How could it be like this! This, this is a fatal injury!” Rayne knelt beside the Ranger, his voice trembling irresistibly.

“Don’t talk nonsense ~! Don’t think about anything else, calm down and concentrate, so that you can use the power of the Holy Light ~!” Cattoli replied briefly, “No matter what happens, I must also Pull him back from the edge of death ~! “

With the frustrated prayers, the golden warm current poured out of the hands of the two Paladins, gently covering the dying Josephine.

Anyway … I must rescue my companion from the mouth of death ~! The girl stared at the sight in front of her eyes, tightened her pale lips, and couldn’t even relax her breathing.

When Catori and Ren tried their best to use Holy Light, Roland took a step forward, blocking them from Austin. The followers of Luvis are the enemies of the Undead Legion, but now they are not the death knights, but Kaos the Demon Hunter-there is no need to hesitate, since they have agreed when they accepted Rennes’ help, then There is only one thing.

“You are the Swordmaster, aren’t you?” Roland looked at the other side vigilantly. Austin’s coat had many traces of flame friction left-apparently, he had fought with several Fire Demon and obtained all of them. Victory-and this is not good news for the Demon Hunter.

“I’m Austin Stewart,” said the other person with a hint of arrogance, “quote your name ~!”

“I’m Kaos, this is really nostalgic etiquette,” Roland replied ironically. “Are we in a noble knightly duel?”

Austin was not irritated by such words, he still kept a proper distance from the death knight: “It seems that I have been to the extreme today, the devil, the mercenary … everyone comes here for fun, I will give you five seconds, immediately Disappear from my eyes, otherwise, die ~! “

“It is impossible for me to leave.” The Demon Hunter raised the big sword in his hand and replied calmly.

“Then I have to kill you. Since the situation has reached such a point, I don’t care how many people will die, anyway, as long as there is a living mouth, it is not easy to manage more prisoners ~” The sword danced in the hands of Juggernaut, “You will soon become a fragmented rag like that ranger ~! You should be honored to die under the strongest sword skill in the world ~”

“That’s not the strongest swordplay in the world,” Roland said.

Austin did not answer, his sword was the answer. The wind and rage condensed and contracted on the long sword, and then turned into a sharp air blade, with a sharp whistling, rushed to the target in front of them.
