"Damn you guy, if you have the ability, show your true identity now!"
Listening to the Nightmare Knight's joking laughter, Ariel's fair face was already filled with anger.
She took a step forward and shouted coldly: "You are doing so many conspiracies in secret, what's the point of being complacent about it?"
"You are the fifth princess, Ariel, right? Just like the rumors, you are just a pampered little princess."
Looking at Ariel's angry and delicate cheeks, the Nightmare Knight's joking laughter became even louder, and he said playfully: "The people you want to protect the most are now in a precarious state where they can't sleep peacefully even to death, and you
But you can’t do all this. This feeling of powerlessness is very uncomfortable, right?”
At this point, the Nightmare Knight's laughter became even more arrogant, and he said fiercely: "Don't worry, it won't be long before you will be on the road with them, Jie Jie Jie."
"You actually use the lives of so many innocent Lengyan people as a means to achieve your goal. Even my second brother Wang will never agree to such an approach!"
Ariel did not continue to be angry, but changed the subject and said: "You must think carefully about the consequences of such actions!"
"You are such an innocent guy. Do you think your incompetent brother can control my will?"
The Nightmare Knight snorted disdainfully and said viciously: "Before you die, I might as well tell you that before long, this kingdom will be completely under our control. By then, I will
Destroy as many cities as you want!"
"You...you bastard!"
Ariel was speechless for a moment, her cheeks turned red and she said, "I, the Lengyan royal family, will never let you go!"
"Jie Jie Jie, is it just you, an incompetent little princess who grew up in a greenhouse?"
The Nightmare Knight laughed wildly and said openly: "It really makes people laugh out loud!"
"Not just Ariel, but me too."
Lei Xiao first signaled Ariel to be calm, then looked at the culprit of all this not far away, and said calmly: "Nightmare Knight, you want to use this low-level behavior of making nonsense to interfere with our actions. I'm afraid you want to
too much."
"I have said it before, verbal threats and ridicules cannot sway me or everyone present."
After a pause, Lei Xiao added: "The reason why you show up again and again is because you are afraid that I will find you, so you come out to delay time, right?"
"Lord Kong Qing, I'm sorry, I'm just here to have some fun."
Looking at Lei Xiao's calm face, the Nightmare Knight's voice revealed a touch of disdain, and said coldly: "Based on these two fifth-level experts under your command, I haven't taken them seriously yet.
inside!"
"Then let's meet Zhenzhang."
Lei Xiao still had that calm look on his face. He ignored the Nightmare Knight and signaled his subordinates to get ready to go.
"Lord Kong Qing, aren't you curious as to why those incompetent men under your command continue to resist in vain even though they know that attacks are ineffective against the fearful clay figures?"
The Nightmare Knight's joking voice was heard again from behind the group of people.
"Nightmare Knight, what exactly do you want to say?"
After hearing the other party's obviously meaningful words, Lei Xiao turned around again and said with a gloomy look.
At this time, Lei Xiao clearly understood.
Just as I had thought before, in the square ahead, there were not only many subordinates who were gritting their teeth and persisting in fighting, but also a large number of ordinary residents and soldiers.
Once the Nightmare Knight makes any changes, the consequences will undoubtedly be disastrous.
"I might as well tell you that in the square ahead, there were originally only fearful clay warriors. As long as those incompetent warriors under your command show any slack, the clay warriors will immediately rush into the crowd and turn more people into undead.
!The look of extreme despair and fear is simply irresistible!"
Noticing the fluctuation of emotions on Lei Xiao's face, the Nightmare Knight's words became more and more playful. He laughed again and said hilariously: "You know now? It's not that they don't want to stop, it's that they don't want to stop at all.
Can’t stop! Jie Jie Jie.”
Hearing this, Lei Xiao did not reply, but continued to listen to the other party's increasingly arrogant words.
"I have just said that it is not an easy task to reach the center of the formation where I am."
When the laughter stopped, the phantom of the nightmare knight riding on the skeleton horse looked down at Lei Xiao and said coldly: "Since you have brought people here, I naturally have to speed up the frequency of attacks. If these fearful clay figures
The soldier rushes into the crowd again, and I'm afraid it will immediately ignite the despair to the extreme, right?"
The Nightmare Knight just said this, Lei Xiao could clearly notice it.
The large number of clay warriors in the square immediately began to attack more and more fiercely. The battle situation, which had maintained a strange balance, immediately became one-sided.
Although the main players such as Ju Bai, Nan Xing, and Nan Yue were still gritting their teeth and persisting, it was obvious that there was only one step left before the shaky defense line was breached.
At this moment, the Nightmare Knight's joking voice rang out again: "City Lord Kongqing, I have also sent a large number of fearful clay warriors to various parts of this city. Those incompetent people you just saved
The subordinates are going to be brutally slaughtered again, Jie Jie Jie."
"Okay, now it's up to you to decide. Should you continue to lead the strong men to look for me, or should you join the incompetent subordinates in the square and resist the attack of the fearful clay warriors in vain?"
After the phantom of the Nightmare Knight finished speaking, a burst of black mist rose up, and it merged into the surrounding fog again.
Watching the phantom of the Nightmare Knight merge into the darkness again, Lei Xiao's face became extremely solemn.
Just like what the Nightmare Knight said, the current situation has indeed reached a dilemma.
With the pressure on the square suddenly increasing, if we continue to attack with all our strength according to the current lineup, I am afraid that the undead storm will completely erupt before we can reach the location of the Nightmare Knight's real body.
And if we divide our forces to help the strong men in the square and resist the invincible clay warriors, even if we find the Nightmare Knight, our chances of winning will be greatly reduced.
"Lord, my subordinates just detected the position of the formation eye, it's over there!"
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, Lina's clear voice immediately rang out: "Since the formation eye is the core of the entire field, it exudes a completely different kind of pure death energy, so no matter how dense the fog is,
It’s also easy to find!”
Looking in the direction of Lina's finger, Lei Xiao noticed.
That was where the slums of the West District used to be. During the reign of the previous city lord, most of the people living in the slums were businessmen and civilians who had offended the previous city lord and his lackeys.
After taking control of Kongqing Town, all the slums were demolished and planned as new residential areas, which are currently under construction.
"So that's it. That former slum has buried countless souls who died tragically at the hands of the previous city lord. It's quite reasonable that the formation is in that location."
Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded thoughtfully.
"Lord, please leave this place to your subordinates."
I saw Ariel holding the staff tightly, her fair face full of seriousness as she said: "My light spells are just enough to restrain those clay warriors, and I will definitely persist until the moment when the lord wins!"
"Lord, Princess Ariel is right."
Lina took a step forward and echoed: "No matter how powerful the Nightmare Knight is, controlling so many clay warriors and undead soldiers will inevitably distract a lot of energy. In addition, it will also consume a lot of energy to support the two realms themselves.
Magic power is obviously not as powerful as it appears!"
After Lina finished speaking, Randall, Ye Cang, and Lina on the side also nodded, their faces full of determination.
As for Hong Ye, her delicate face had frowning eyebrows that were already covered with vague anger.
She has been looked down upon by an ant over and over again. As a dragon, she will definitely make her pay the due price!
"I understand, I'll leave it to you. You don't need to keep the potions on you, just use them as much as you like."
Looking at the determination on the faces of his subordinates, Lei Xiao nodded.
With five Tier 4 experts joining the battle in the square, it can indeed greatly reduce the pressure on Ju Bai, Nan Xing, Nan Yue and others.
In particular, Ariel, who has restrained the undead, and Randall, who is the fourth-level peak powerhouse, will undoubtedly exert great combat power.
Lina, who is also a necromancer, Chaoyan with strong firepower, and Ye Cang, who can handle both healing and physical attacks, are also existences that cannot be underestimated.
Of course, the high-level magic potions carried by the subordinates also played an important role in greatly enhancing the subordinates' continuous combat capabilities. This is also an important reason why Ju Bai and others in the square can persist until now.
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, the group immediately split into two forces. Lei Xiao and Hong Ye galloped towards the direction of the original slum, while the remaining five subordinates flew to the square below.
At the same time that Lei Xiao's two figures disappeared into the black mist, Randall, Ye Cang, Ariel, Chao Yan, and Lina also landed on the precarious square one after another.
"Iron Guards!"
Following the brief chant, Randall shouted loudly, and as the staff waved, the metal energy particles in the air vibrated, and thousands of steel heavy infantrymen holding giant shields condensed out of thin air.
As a fourth-level peak powerhouse, Randall is not only good at metal attack magic, he is also very good at metal summoning spells. Summoning an army of ordinary golem puppets with a size of 1,000 people is naturally no problem.
Under Randall's control, these golem puppets, whose strength was only at the peak of the first level, did not directly participate in the battle, but were evenly distributed around the panicked crowd, forming a barrier.
Even though the strength of these golem puppets is limited, with fully armed soldiers standing around to guard them, they can undoubtedly alleviate the despair among the crowd.
When Randall summoned the golem puppet, Ariel also chose the same response method.
"Glorious Holy Lion!"
A burst of dazzling golden light burst out from the small crown worn by Ariel.
Not long after, ten third-order peak level golden lion puppets appeared beside her, wagging their tails.
This is a summoning spell sealed on Ariel's crown. It was sealed by Rose King Esther, the fifteenth generation monarch of the Cold Flame Kingdom. Only royal members with royal blood can use it.
At that time, after learning this, Lei Xiao originally planned to upgrade this fourth-level princess crown.
But then I considered that once a qualitative change occurred and the shape of the crown was changed, Ariel would undoubtedly lose the symbol of a princess, and a quantitative change would not be of much use, so I decided to give it up temporarily.
On the increasingly fierce battlefield, under the control of Ariel, ten golden holy lions pounced on the ten fearful clay warriors who were trying to break through the defense line.
The moment the clay warrior who was knocked down came into contact with the golden lion puppet, a thick black mist erupted from his body, and soon disappeared into nothing.
Those who attacked later also received the same treatment. In front of the light attribute golem puppets that absolutely restrained them, even the clay warriors who could infinitely regenerate were unable to get any closer.
Not far from Ariel, the elegant Ye Cang was already walking among several clay warriors as if he were dancing.
I saw that Ye Cang's big hand had already been shrouded in a cloud of black energy. As he swung his sword again and again, the clay warriors who were hit immediately dissipated into the air and were killed on the spot.
.
For the battle priest Ye Cang, who is a dark healer, he naturally knows how to resolve the darkness best, which is to fight the darkness with the power of darkness, just like the reason why his profession was born.
"Reverse Summon Annihilation!"
As for Lina, who was also a necromancer, the black magic circle under her feet rotated rapidly, and soon the fearful clay warriors around her were restored to the rising rich death energy.
"The fire dragon is coming!"
As for Chaoyan, the great flame magician, he opened up all his firepower and summoned several giant flame dragons hovering in the air. Each dive could burn several fearful clay warriors into nothingness.
At this point, with the addition of Lei Xiao's five fourth-level main powerhouses, the extremely unfavorable battle situation in the square was quickly greatly alleviated.
"Your Highness Princess! Captain Randall!"
The fair face was already full of tired orange. When he saw Ariel and others, he couldn't help but cheered up: "Everyone, it's Her Royal Highness and others who are here to support me!"
"Her Royal Highness, it is really Her Royal Highness Princess Ariel!"
For a time, the atmosphere of despair that filled the square gradually subsided.
Whether it was the strong men who fought hard or the ordinary soldiers and civilians who heard Orange and White's shouts, they all looked excited and cheered.
However, no one present expected that the nightmare would really begin next.
