He raised his eyes in confusion, looking at the adventurer who gradually turned into white light and left the top of the city tower. He held the Hanyun Sword tightly, unwilling to let it end, but there was nothing he could do.
"laugh!"
Suddenly, a spear stabbed Herbert from behind.
"Yijiang Hanshui, leave quickly!" Kanter, who lost his skeleton horse, yelled.
"boom!"
The next second, Herbert swung his arm, moved the silver spear pointed at Jiang Han back, and hit Kanter cleanly, killing him easily and instantly, turning him into exploding bone fragments and littering the ground.
-3285704!
Bright red numbers pop up.
Even Kanter, who was at full health, couldn't bear more than three million damage, let alone the serious injury now.
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Since [Undead Knight Kanter] was killed by Holy Knight Herbert, the point reward has been cancelled!
"This is indeed a loyal dog." Herbert spoke calmly, glanced at Kanter's bone fragments on the ground, and focused on Jiang Han again, "If you don't have any last words...then die!"
The silver light is sharp and straight.
He stabbed out with his spear without any mercy.
The dark swordsman grew up to be extremely terrifying. How could he let the other party leave alive?
"Qiang——"
The crisp collision of the sword and the gun shattered the ground where Herbert was standing, and a strong wave of air blew up Jiang Han and Daniel nearby.
"!!"
Herbert's body trembled slightly, and he took a step back uncontrollably. He looked at the person coming and couldn't help showing a surprised look: "It is impossible for an ordinary undead swordsman to reach your level of strength. Who were you when you were alive?"
"..."
Although he is called an undead swordsman, the blocker does not look like a skeleton, but a thin man with a pale face. He said nothing. After blocking Herbert's inevitable attack, he turned around and rushed out, grabbing him.
Zhu Jiang Han's armored arms jumped up suddenly.
"Bang!"
A deep pit broke out in the ground, and shocking cracks extended at the edge, as if to describe the tyrannical force of that leap.
The undead swordsman led Jiang Han to the city tower easily and then used his strength again. Using the city wall as a cover, he disappeared from Herbert's sight and lost his trace.
Looking at this scene, Herbert did not pursue him.
Because he does not have the confidence to defeat the opponent, if he really angers the opponent, the consequences will be disastrous.
"call……"
Seeing Jiang Han being taken away by Sherrill, Daniel was relieved. His whole body fell limply to the ground, and in the black light, he turned into a strange bead that exuded a strange aura.
"I have met the Holy Knight..."
Not long after, the city gate opened wide, and when the soldiers of the two legions saw Herbert, they all knelt down and bowed their heads.
Although the Holy See of Light and the Imperial Power are two institutions, the connection between the two is ambiguous and difficult to describe. The holy knights have a high status, and are naturally not lower than the status of the leader who leads them.
Bending down to pick up the bead, Herbert observed it silently for a long time, then held it tightly and ordered: "Give me an increased wanted reward for the Dark Swordsman. No matter life or death, I want to see his head!"
"yes!"
…
In the strong wind, the surrounding scenery was retreating rapidly.
"Why not rescue Daniel together?" Jiang Han, who was led away by the undead swordsman, asked.
Sherrill kept running, still running with all his strength: "Daniel triggered the celestial phenomena, which was the last blow of the necromancer. After using it, he could not move. He had entered the death countdown, and..."
"and?"
"The Necromancer is very important to the Holy See of Light. If I take you two away, Herbert will definitely start to hunt you down. Not only will I not be able to save you, I will even be involved," Sherrill explained, "
Herbert is okay, I can handle it, but there were other strong men hiding in the darkness in the City of Darkness just now..."
"..."
Jiang Han was speechless.
Are there any hidden strong men?
How many powerful men were watching this city defense battle?
Until they arrived at the mist-shrouded ghost swamp, hiding deep in the dead and ruined forest, Sherrill let go of Jiang Han and said calmly: "It should be safe now."
"Thank you." Jiang Han said sincerely.
He wouldn't ask more questions about why Sherrill showed up at the end.
To put it bluntly, this is the rule.
Otherwise, even if there is a need to attack and defend the city in waves, perhaps Herbert alone can defeat the entire city's defenders in the City of Darkness and win.
Sherrill shook his head: "There is no need to thank you. Daniel has already said in the letter that he hopes I will save your life at a critical moment. I am just fulfilling the agreement!"
After speaking, he took out a map and handed it to Jiang Han.
This is……
Jiang Han immediately took the map and found that there was a red mark in the center of the map, which seemed to be a treasure map.
"From today on, I am your new mentor." Sherrill said in a serious tone, "Your performance in the City of Darkness is very good. I appreciate it very much, but if you want me to accept you as my disciple, you still need to accept the test.
!”
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Do you want to accept the task [Looking for Treasures]?
"yes!"
How could Jiang Han not know what is good and what is bad?
It is true that he regretted not being able to defend the City of Darkness, but Daniel said more than once that as long as he lived long enough, they would meet again in the future, and presumably Daniel also left himself a backup plan.
All he needs to do is to become stronger, explore, and understand the entire Tianheng Continent.
"Ding!~"
System prompt: You accept the task [Looking for Treasures] (Difficulty: b)!
【Looking for treasure】(Difficulty: b)
Introduction: The undead swordsman Sherrill placed a mysterious treasure at the end of the map. Please dig it out.

"Go for it!"
Sherrill waved his hand, stepped forward and disappeared into the mist, and said: "I know this kind of task is not difficult for you, go and come back quickly."
"Um."
Jiang Han nodded and began to study the treasure map carefully, preparing to leave.
However, before he could concentrate, a series of system ringtones rang in his ears, interrupting his train of thought——
