24. The Warriors of Tyrion (Part 1)

The soldiers led by Keeshan successfully crushed the first wave of tentative attacks by the undead.

They killed at least 3,000 undead in a violent manner, but to the Dark Blade Legion who came out in force, this was only the most insignificant loss. It would not even appear in the battle damage list. It is impossible to describe this kind of loss with just a drop in the bucket.

...fail?

"There are also warriors among humans."

Tyrion said to the silent high-ranking knight beside him:

"Warriors like you, there are many such outstanding people in the human kingdom, but in that rotten system, you can only be used as expendables. It is a pity... The existence of warriors should not be wasted in such a meaningless manner.

.”

"Go, Knight Jor-El, and bring me a victory. By the way, "invite" the warrior over. I want to talk to him."

The silent former paladin nodded and controlled the skeleton war horses to come out. The sea of ​​undead in front made way for him, and behind him, more and more high-level knights followed the galloping high-level knights.

Rush to the frontline battlefield.

If humans think that the walking corpses and undead infantry they have just defeated represent the combat power of the Dark Blade, and they feel proud and complacent because of this, their doom...will soon come.

"Al is different from all of us. He was a paladin during his lifetime, an extremely sincere one."

Tyrion watched his most elite knights rush into the battlefield, and he whispered:

"I'm curious, how did you eliminate the influence of the Holy Light on him, or do you already have a way to corrupt the Paladin? Are you hiding something from me? My friend Khadgar."

"It's not what you think, Your Majesty."

The great lich said calmly:

"Jor El's recruitment was an accident. Thanks to Ms. Nasa's actions, this paladin was exposed to a large amount of void energy before his death. The power that was seriously opposed to the Holy Light destroyed the Holy Light in his body.

Most of it was corroded, and because of this, I had the opportunity to inject death into his body."

"Such an approach is opportunistic and cannot be replicated."

Khadgar shook his head:

"Compared with Al, I think you should pay more attention to the Elf Paladin who was imprisoned by Lord Myra, Alex Flameblade. Myra and his wife used a special method to control his mind and let him

The holy light used has mutated, and I have never seen that kind of corrupted holy light..."

"That's just Myra implanting the fragments of the dead Narukara into Erics' body. You should know, Naru, these holy light creatures will transform into the deep void before death. What they represent

The holy light itself is not pure. The reason why the holy light used by Erics has a corrupting effect is just because the holy light and the void are entangled in his body."

The Dark Blade King returned his attention to the battlefield, where the death knights led by Jor-El were already fighting against the human soldiers led by Keeshan.

"The example of Erics cannot be replicated either, so for the next stage of exploration, my friend, I need your outstanding wisdom to study the method of corrupting the Paladins... You have to know how much the Holy Light favors them.

When they embrace death, they will become stronger... I need those paladins, I need them to add to our cause."

"But now, let us put aside our doubts and enjoy this life and death battle."

———————————————————————-

"They're coming!"

Keshan saw the death knights rushing over from the rolling tide of undead. There were more than 300 of them, all of them were powerful knights riding death horses, wearing black armor, and holding heavy weapons. This menacing silence

, making Keeshan feel threatened.

He re-tightened the handle of the continuous-firing machine gun in his hand. Under his command, with two steam tanks as the main body of the defense line, the human infantry quickly reorganized the defense on both sides of the battle line.

"Go to hell!"

Keeshan raised the machine gun and put the body of the leader of the death knight into the scope. The next moment, the low roar of the machine gun sounded on the battlefield again.

"Bang bang bang bang bang"

The powerful bullets shot out in a scattering manner hit the high-ranking knight Jor Al. The latter continued to charge without dodging. In the wave of his cold black iron gauntlet, a layer of dark green

A shield appeared in front of his body. When those bullets hit the shield, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, being corroded by the death energy silently.

However, the crazy impact of the bullets fired at high speed also weakened the death knight's charging speed a lot. Al stared at Keeshan, he grabbed the reins, and the death horse began to accelerate again.

Behind him, the high-ranking knights galloped faster and faster. The moment they approached the battle line, the mage Major Menason waved his arm fiercely, and the human musketeers who were waiting for him started to fire.

He pulled the trigger, and in an instant, a hail of bullets rained down.

But as if a switch was turned on, the bodies of those high-level knights became illusory at this moment. The darkness surrounding them temporarily transformed their bodies into ghosts. Purely physical attacks could no longer harm them. Those whistling gunpowders

Bullets penetrated the bodies of the ghosts.

High-level knight skill-Ghost Step!

"Wow"

The knight impact imagined by the human warriors holding large shields at the front did not appear at all. Those pale knights seemed to have no entity, easily piercing through their defenses and passing through their bodies like ghosts.

, the severe cold of death made these warriors tremble all over.

And where the ghost knights were running past, the large shields in the hands of those warriors were covered with frost, and the disaster also happened at this moment. After passing through the human warriors holding heavy shields, the ghost state of the death knights

At the end, the Death Knight, who had re-formed into a physical entity, slammed into the unsuspecting human musketeers' position with unparalleled impact.

"Shua"

Warm blood filled the battlefield at this moment, and they were knocked away by the death knight's horse, pierced by the icy cold blade, or directly decapitated.

A wave of charges by 300 high-level knights directly shattered all order in the human position. Amidst the screams of people falling on their backs, the soldiers in the front row of defense came to their senses in shock and looked at those who were slashing at the comrades behind them.

Kill the high-ranking knights.

The black cloaks of the knights buzzed in the human camp, and the low ringing of horse bells hanging on the necks of the high-ranking knights' horses added a pale cruelty to this crazy massacre amidst the dying screams.

footnote.

The human position collapsed.

And the undead tide that was silent before their eyes also began to surge again at this fatal moment.

"No! Jorgensen! Get your knights into action!"

Kishaun witnessed the massacre completely. In his anxiety, he no longer pointed the muzzle at the speeding Jor-El, but in the chaos, he pointed the muzzle toward the rear, where,

Some death knights who had penetrated the position were rushing towards the camp of the wounded soldiers in the rear, where the remaining explosives were still stored.

Can't let them destroy those!

"Stop! Stop!"

Amidst Keeshan's roar, the continuous machine guns of the two steam tanks sounded at the same time. The high-level knights who crossed the position were hit by the storm of bullets coming from behind. Their bodies were protected by the energy of death, but they

The war horse under his crotch could not be protected.

The body of the skeleton war horse was shattered by bullets. For a moment, the fast-running high-level knights turned into slow-moving infantry, and were once again surrounded by soldiers.

But this kind of rescue move brought big trouble to Keeshan.

When approaching the slowly turning steam tank, the high-ranking knight jumped up from his horse, and like a dark shadow, he fell next to Keshan. He held the rune sword in his hand and stabbed hard at his feet.

The steel chariot, with a harsh sound, the thick steel plate was torn apart directly, and when the rune sword was drawn out, the blade was already stained with blood.

"Karkel!"

When Keshan saw this scene, he turned away from the gun with red eyes, but the next moment, the solid steel machine gun was cut off by Al's sword. In the sparks caused by the metal collision, the death knight's sword blade was

He flipped around in the air and slashed hard at Keeshan's neck.

The naked human veteran gritted his teeth and lowered his body to avoid the blow. He pulled out the tactical dagger from his waist with his backhand, and escaped with a bottle filled with holy water with his other hand. With a howl, Ji

Shane's dagger accurately followed the crack in the armor and pierced Al's abdomen.

The bottle of scorching holy water was slapped hard on Al's horn helmet by Keeshan.

"Wow"

The moment the pure holy water came into contact with the death energy on Al's body, a storm like ashes arose. The high-ranking knight took a step back. This gave Keeshan hope. He grabbed Al's holder with both hands.

The sword's left arm and left leg swept across the death knight's legs, knocking the high-ranking knight over on top of the stopped steam tank.

"Let go! Let go! Let me... let go!"

"Bang bang"

He grabbed Al's wrist and smashed it hard on the steel on the edge of the tank. Keeshan, who was in close combat, howled like a wild beast. During his crazy impact, the rune epee in Al's hand fell to the ground.

He fell to the ground, but the next moment, Keshan's body was clasped by a dark red death grip from behind, and he was thrown to the ground hard.

"Bang"

The human warrior quickly got up from the ground. Opposite him, Al moved his wrists and opened his hands. The cold frost gathered in his palms and turned into two long swords of ice. The two looked at each other. The next moment

, the two guys pounced on each other like wild beasts looking for food.

On the battlefield filled with dust and blood, the former paladin and the human warrior fought hand to hand in a frenzied manner. Unfortunately, no matter how powerful the veteran was, he was only made of flesh and blood, and what he had to face was a

A monster strengthened by both death energy and dragon blood.

"Bang"

Al's cold, heavily armored fist hit Keeshan's cheek, sending the veteran flying into the air and falling to the ground in a panic. The blow made Keeshan dizzy, and he struggled to get up.

For a moment, he saw the painful Jorgensen leading the remaining paladins towards the Sea of ​​the Undead in a sacrificial gesture.

He saw the mage Menason, who was surrounded by high-ranking knights, struck by four swords and fell from his chariot.

He saw the tragedy of Karakol, a warrior who was seriously injured by Al, holding gunpowder and dying together with a high-ranking knight.

He saw the Grand Earl and Major Danforth, who had just entered the battlefield, back to back, holding weapons in hand and struggling to resist the sea of ​​​​the dead in despair.

There were also the shadows of the heroic soldiers who followed him to resist the undead invasion and fought to the death in despair. All of this, this cruel war, once again showed the most bloody scene before his eyes.

With the taste of blood surging in his mouth, Keeshan once again stood in a battlefield full of blood and dust. He looked at the high-ranking knight in front of him. He stretched out his hand to tie the red cloth strip on his forehead tightly, and then bent

He lowered his waist, took the sword and shield from the dead soldier, and slapped the sword on the shield, provoking the death knight in front of him in this way.

"Come! Villain, come! Kill me and take my life for your master!"

The hatred that shattered his teeth made him look like the last wolf king of a pack of wolves that had been wiped out.

The silent Al still didn't answer. He flipped his wrists, and the two ice-thorn swords turned in two icy arcs in the air, and finally pointed at Keishaan in front of him.

"Veteran, you will not die..."

Al spoke for the first time in the battle, accompanied by his tall figure charging towards Keshan:

"But you will face a hell that is more terrifying than death."
