Chapter 53: The Night Ghost and the Bound Spirit
Valed's words were full of anger - although it was still difficult to regard Anne as his fiancée. However, after a period of time, the heroic female knight's position in Valed's heart has indeed become a little "different". Perhaps Valed himself did not feel that he had vaguely regarded Anne as his own person. Now that Anne is in danger, how can Valed not be in a hurry?
There is another reason why Vared was angry. The battle situation is stable now, and the development direction is no different from what he thought. There is no need for Anne, a fool, to show off. Even if she goes out like this, it is very likely that the deployment of the battle will be disrupted and add variables to this battle...
He cursed this sentence, but no one responded. Valed knew that this was not the time to hold him accountable. He snorted coldly and turned around and began to pay attention to the battlefield. However, he had already felt murderous intent in his heart.
"Mother..." Vared said in a low voice, raised his head and looked at Madame Windsor with a look of help, and then suggested: "I think it is a good idea to send another group of knights to attack at this time. Our defense can be slightly lowered. Draw a company of blood Holy Grail Knights to dispatch. Is this possible?"
"Valid, I'll ask you a question." Mrs. Windsor did not say yes, nor did she say yes. Instead, she asked Valid, "What would you do if I reject you? Keep defending, or lose your temper, and run out to help her?"
Valed was stunned for a moment, and then said his answer: "I won't do that."
"Very good." Madame Windsor smiled satisfied: "You must know that you are Count Castein, the ruler and the commander of the army. Nothing is more important than your own safety."
Just as the two of them were talking, Anne and her Black Knights team were trapped. The Strygh rebels sent out all the evil ghosts in the tombs near her. In addition, the number of skeleton troops dozens of times more than them, and the auxiliary magic increase of Strygh Ghoul King finally limited the mobility of these black knights. They surrounded them three layers inside and three layers outside, and then launched an uninterrupted attack.
Just like a few years ago, Valed had a mock battle with one of his cousins at a July banquet.
Fortunately, at this time, a group of bloody Holy Grail Knights suddenly appeared. A charge broke the encirclement and helped the besieged black knights. At this time, Annie did not dare to say anything more. She quickly commanded the troops to take advantage of this opportunity to break through.
Seeing that group of black knights rode away, many Stryg's Ghost Kings roared unwillingly. They had no resources to support such advanced and expensive troops as the Black Knight. A small number of skeleton cavalry were definitely not the enemy's opponents, so they could only watch the other party escape.
Just when Valed breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly, a strange scream came from the Strygh army! The sound was extremely harsh and unacceptable. I just wanted to cover my ears. Even in such a noisy battlefield, I could hear it clearly. Then dozens of black shadows rose from the rebels. The sound also increased a lot.
This noise is by no means inferior to any weapon of mass destruction. The servants in the castle were first hit by the seedlings, covered their ears and bleeding, and they all died and could not die anymore. Then there were the banshees of the semi-unneire creatures. They were dizzy by the noise and lost their combat power. Fortunately, the main force of Castein's side was all undead, and they would not be affected by this noise. Otherwise, there would be no battle in this battle.
"Why are those ghouls and evil ghosts in the tombs?!" Vared was surprised and couldn't help blurting out. Then he looked at the corpse of the ghoul next to him. The monster should have only two blood holes left in the ears, which actually pierced the eardrum. No wonder it was not affected by this.
"It's the Youye Tian Ghost! The other party is going to fight to the death!" Madam Windsor said solemnly, reminding Valed. Valed also nodded, shook his sleeves, and clenched his staff.
As these ghosts approached quickly, their form was exposed to the moonlight. Their skin was gray, their muscles were twisted, and their limbs were powerful. They had huge flesh wings like bats stretched out their tongues, their mouths covered with sharp teeth, their beastly chaotic eyes and an extremely ugly head. It is hard to imagine that these huge monsters weighing more than one ton were once small bats weighing less than five kilograms.
Seeing these huge monsters approaching quickly, Vared's hand holding the staff raised it up, and a series of ice arrows that had long been stored in the staff were shot out, continuously bombarding the body of the Youye Tian Ghost, who was targeting him. The ice edge that could rival any sharp blade of the world pierced the Youye Tian Ghost's body without mercy, tearing his wings to pieces, chopping off his head and limbs, and punching him like a sieve.
"Is this for you?" Mrs. Windsor asked when she saw the staff in Vared's hand seemed familiar.
"Well, the birthday gift that Teacher Tracy gave me last year." Vared nodded and admitted.
"I didn't expect that she even gave you this." Madam Windsor didn't say anything more. Seeing the dozens of Youyetian ghosts who were standing in the box on the opponent, they were bombarded into pieces by the magic tower. She clapped her hands and signaled that she could launch a counterattack.
Immediately afterwards, Vared felt that the magic wind around him had changed, and the defensive barrier of the Dekenhof Castle suddenly became different. At the same time, a group of spirit-bound demons rode their undead war horses and roared past the wall. The Dekenhof Castle's solid exterior wall was as solid as pure gold in their eyes, shaped like nothing, without any obstacles!
These warriors wearing tattered black robes and covered with green ghost fires waved their long-handled sickles in their hands to harvest the lives of ghouls and skeleton soldiers outside the city. The sickle passed by the living ghouls, as if they were illusory, and could easily penetrate their bodies. Then, the ghouls became a pile of ashes with the smell of sulfur. If they hit the skeleton soldiers, the sickle would be like a real thing, and could directly crush its bones.
Every spirit-bound demon was like a harvester. They kept charging forward, their bodies turned into illusions, and freely shuttled through thousands of troops. Wherever they went, the ugly souls of the zombie ghoul were crushed into powder, and the skeleton soldiers lost the magic power that supported them to restore them to bones. A scan of the sickle, and both living creatures and undead were all killed in one fell swoop!
This is one of the ace troops of the Castein family. There are a total of fifty spirit-bound demons in a team. Their combat power can even be compared with that of the giant dragon!
While the spirit-binding demons launched a charge, the Strygh Ghoul Kings cursed and wanted to stop these crazy cavalry. However, their speed was too fast to control their figures. What's more, they were galloping in the array of rebels. Using magic attacks is likely to hit their own people. This makes the Ghoul Kings helpless.
Even the zombie kings targeted by the spirit-bound demons often cannot escape and die. They have almost no magical equipment and are extremely poor, but they have no means to resist the spirit-bound demons. Those with strong strength can survive, while those with insufficient strength can only be killed.
After the rebel army was disturbed by the spirit-binding demons, another company of blood Holy Grail Knights appeared outside through one-way teleportation magic circles and launched a charge. At the same time, the city gate of the outer wall suddenly opened. A large number of ancient tomb guards and stone tomb corpse monsters flocked out and launched a general attack on the rebels. The roar of the undead sounded behind the rebels. It must be that the local garrison and the reinforcements of the vampire nobles arrived. At this point, there was no suspense in this battle, and the Castein family would achieve complete victory.
