After Mrs. Christie thanked Suldak, she also chatted with Baron Llewellyn. She planned to go to the oak forest to capture Llewellyn together when reinforcements from Helensa City arrived at Ice Lake Manor at dawn tomorrow.
Baron Aylin's body was recovered. Although Baron Llewellyn was a close friend with Karl, he was also very familiar with Mrs. Christie due to Miss Brenda's relationship, so the two of them found Suldak tonight.
help.
Although Surdak and Baron Llewellyn were just ordinary friends, Surdak didn't even have many ordinary friends, so when Karl mentioned this matter, Surdak didn't think much about it and agreed.
After sending Carl and Mrs. Christie away, Suldak took a candlestick to the fireplace and sat down on the wooden chair next to the fireplace. The candlelight in the room was soft, and as the flames danced, Suldak
The shadow reflected on the wall was also shaking slightly. He originally wanted to flip through the book "Self-Cultivation of the Magic Swordsman" to see how Ambrose had made a breakthrough. However, when he reached out and learned from the magic sword
When he was taking out a book from his pocket, he accidentally pulled out the magic notes of the black magician Cyrus Hickok.
Picking up the magic notebook, Surdak discovered that the magic notebook was shaking constantly. It seemed to have life and thinking ability, constantly conveying a feeling of fear to Surdak. Surdak
Ke pressed the magic notebook on the table with both hands, but it still couldn't stop the magic notebook from shaking.
Surdak's heart moved slightly, and then he opened the pages of the magic notebook. This magic notebook was originally written by the magician Cyrus Hickok to record his practice experience. The notebook also recorded several information about black magic.
runes, properties of some magic herbs and magic materials. Surdak has opened this notebook countless times before, but never like this.
Opening the first page of the magic notebook, Surdak saw that a line of words appeared out of thin air on the page of the notebook. The letters of each word emerged one by one, as if there was an invisible big hand holding a pen and trembling on the page.
'Watch out, they're coming.'
Seeing this line of words appear completely in front of his eyes, Suldak immediately felt that the pores on his back were standing up, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
He initially suspected that someone was playing a prank, but after he looked around carefully and found no clues, the more he tried to find the answer, the colder his heart became. When he realized that he was the only one in the room, he rushed
Go over and close the magic notebook at once.
This is just a magic notebook made of magic parchment bound in a volume. In it, a black magician recorded some of his experiences in learning magic. There were many things that Surdak couldn't understand, but he didn't expect this.
This magic notebook is actually alive and warns him of danger tonight.
Suldak quickly tied the dwarf chain shield beside the bed to his arm, and re-inserted the sharpened Artisan's Sword into the scabbard on his waist.
At this time, under the blessing of the 'Blessed Body' state, his physical strength had almost recovered. He walked to the window in a few steps, opened the window and let the cold wind from outside blow in. He felt that the fog at night was getting bigger.
, the torch at the gate of the manor became very blurry in his sight, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
Suldak closed the window, turned around and walked out of the room.

Darcy Christie was sitting on the soft leather sofa in the lobby on the first floor of the villa, with one hand on her forehead, watching the maids in the manor carrying water basins coming in and out of the corridor on one side, and she felt a little inexplicable.
irritable.
In just one day, not only so many nobles died in front of her eyes, but also some injured nobles were lying in the manor. Such a thing happened during this winter hunting. Darcy Christie didn't know how it would end afterwards.
, and tonight seems to be the most difficult night. All guards are deployed in every corner of the manor, both in the light and in the dark. They have also pushed out bed crossbows from the observation decks in the four corners of the manor, and are already in preparation for war.
.
She saw a scratch on the leather armor of her arm, which was left by a ghost who suddenly appeared next to her in the oak forest. If it weren't for the spiked tail crystal lion leather armor that instantly burst out with power, she would be able to survive in a short time.
It can explode with extreme speed, and I'm afraid this arm has been severed by that terrifying scythe.
I didn’t expect that Holden Knight, who was usually steady and dull, could actually step forward at a critical moment and unleash such a powerful fighting force.
The housekeeper stood beside Darcy Christie, took a cup of tea from a maid, and placed it on the coffee table in front of Darcy.
She glanced at the housekeeper, who bent down and said respectfully to Darcy: "Miss Darcy, you should rest for a while. I will stay here for you. If anything happens, I will wake you up as soon as possible!"
Darcy sat up straight and took a deep breath. She hesitated for a moment, but finally shook her head.
Her Suldak walked down the stairs quickly and asked Suldak: "Why are you down? You should have a good rest."
Several nobles who were keeping vigil with Darcy Christie in the hall on the first floor also cast their eyes on Suldak, and their eyes also showed admiration.
Obviously, it was because of Surdak's behavior in the oak forest that these nobles looked at him differently.
Suldak strode up to Darcy Christie and said in a deep voice: "There may be something going on outside. I want to go out for a walk."
Hearing what Suldak said, Darcy Christie also realized that she should go to the manor for a tour, so she stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
Suldak put his hand on her shoulders, asked her to sit down on the sofa again, and said in a tone that left no room for doubt: "You stay here."
Dacy Christie glared at Suldak, suppressed the anger rising in her heart, and sat back on the sofa with a straight face and angrily.
Under the surprised gazes of the surrounding butlers and maids, who could not believe that under such circumstances, Darcy Christie did not lose her temper.
At times like this in the past, even in front of her father, Marquis Bernard Christie, she would be like a rabbit with fried hair, making a fuss at Marquis Christie, but in front of Suldak, she actually
She just glared at him fiercely and sat back on the sofa angrily. The surrounding maids looked at Suldak with an elusive meaning.
Dacy paused and said to Suldak: "Then I will send someone to go out with you."
“Okay.” Suldak replied simply.
Christie arranged for a manor guard who stayed in the hall to follow Suldak out of the hall. As soon as he opened the door of the villa and walked out, Suldak felt as if he had entered an environment of ice and snow. As soon as he walked a few steps away, the cold wave of the night hit him.
His fingers stung a little, the cold wind felt like a knife cutting into his face, and some trees and low shrub walls in the manor were covered with a thick layer of white frost.
A group of guards, wrapped in thick leather coats and holding torches in the wind and snow, came from behind the manor. They exchanged commands with the guards around Suldak, then put down their standard military crossbows and stepped forward to confront him.
Looking at Suldak, he said: "Everything is normal in the backyard. It's just that the weather is really too cold."
"Keep warm and stay vigilant." Suldak said to the guards, and then said to the guards around him: "Let's go to the front gate and take a look."
The guard followed Surdak out to help him coordinate these matters, and then accompanied Surdak to the front door.
After walking a hundred or ten meters away, a nobleman wearing a thick cloak walked towards him on the main road of the manor. He wore a hood on his head to cover his face, but the emblem on the cloak and the excellent weapon on his back made him look like a nobleman.
With an extraordinary background, Suldak thought he was the guard chief walking back from the front door. The two got closer and closer, but Suldak felt something was wrong. Not only did the man in front of him not say a word, but his body was moving when walking.
It seems extremely uncoordinated.
Suldak secretly pulled the guard accompanying him.
The guard was also smart and said hurriedly: "Password!"
The man opposite showed no sign of wanting to answer. Only when there was a gurgling sound in his throat did Surdak react. Just when the man opposite turned into an afterimage and rushed towards the two of Surdak.
, Surdak propped up the dwarf chain shield in his hand in time to block the spear suddenly thrust out by the man on the opposite side. The spear collided with the dwarf chain shield, and suddenly there was a harsh metal friction sound, and then
A series of sparks burst out in the dark night.
A layer of silver glow appeared on the dwarf chain shield, and the effect of the 'Blessing Shield' was also activated.
Suldak was stabbed by the spear from the opposite person and took two steps back. If it were not for the blessing of the 'divine body', Suldak felt that he might not be able to catch this thrust.
The moment the man rushed towards Suldak, the hood on his head was lifted by the north wind.
What was inside was the face of a middle-aged man, but his eyes were hollow and his face was expressionless. Upon closer inspection, Surdak realized that this man did not need to breathe. He was clearly a zombie, but his
Their movements are more flexible than zombies, and they may be called living zombies.
Surdak blocked the blow, drew his sword and slashed it on the neck of the living corpse. The thick and sharp craftsman's sword actually seemed to have been chopped on a piece of frozen meat, except for a shallow mark.
, nothing was left behind. The living corpse didn’t even react. He raised his leg and kicked towards Surdak. Surdak quickly waved his shield to block it, but was kicked by the living corpse and fell backwards.
go out.
The guard next to Surdak quickly pulled out his sword and stabbed it into the chest of the living corpse. The living corpse grabbed the edge of the sword with one hand and raised the spear with the other hand.
The guard's throat was caught in the flash of lightning, and Surdak had no time to rescue him.
Unexpectedly, this living corpse was much more powerful than the evil ghost. There was no warning at the gate of the manor. It seemed that all the guards there had been wiped out. Just when Surdak hesitated, he found this corpse.
Behind the living corpses, a large number of zombies stumbled out of the thick fog. What shocked Surdak even more was that many of the costumes on these zombies were worn by nobles who died in the oak forest during the day.
Leather armor.
The sound of the fight spread far away, and the pair of manor guards who had just passed by heard the sound and quickly ran towards Suldak.
The living corpse trampled the dying guard in front of him, pulled out the sentry sword embedded in his chest and threw it into the snow aside. Dragging the spear in his hand, he quickly rushed towards Surdak, his throat again
Make a cooing sound.
Surdak knew that this living corpse had huge power, and he released his power without hesitation. A two-faced and four-armed demonic figure appeared from behind. Surdak felt the power inside his body explode.
Zeng, then faced the spear thrust by the living corpse, blocked it with his shield, and released a faint power of holy light on the craftsman's sword, which smeared across the neck of the living corpse.
Although the neck of the living corpse was as strong as fine iron, the holy light on the Sword of Surdak's Craftsman was obviously very restrained. The sword edge passed across the neck, and immediately cut the living corpse's neck with a wound as deep as the bone. The wound appeared to be extremely restrained.
It was extremely ferocious. The spine of the neck was cut open with a sword, but the head did not fall off. The head of the living corpse folded back uncontrollably, and blood flowed out.
The living corpse did not fall down, but his movements seemed staggering, without any sense of coordination, and he quickly retreated into the zombie group.
In the night fog, more zombies and skeleton soldiers broke in from outside the manor, and the sound of fighting could be heard faintly from all over the manor.
At the same time, magic flares were lit up everywhere in the manor. In the thick fog, the red light emitted by the flares did not spread very far.
Four skeleton soldiers with soul fire flashing in their eyes rushed in front of Surdak. These four skeletons blocked Surdak, allowing him to watch the seriously injured living corpse escape back into the zombie group, and then the skeleton
The soldiers launched continuous attacks on Surdak, and four heavy axes fell in succession, almost making Surdak unable to fight back.
A powerful crossbow flew out from behind Suldak through the night. The crossbow arrows with these fine steel arrows hit the skeletons, which could only slow down their movements. Occasionally, the extremely accurate crossbow arrows shot through the eye sockets of the skeleton soldiers and went out.
The soul flame in the eye socket will completely scatter the skeleton into a pile of broken bones.
The crossbow arrows were more effective than nothing against the slow-moving zombies behind. Even if the zombie walking in front was covered in a hedgehog, it could not stop its progress. Looking at the approaching undead, Surdak could only
Keep retreating.
Fortunately, there was a reaction in the villa at this time. Darcy Christie led some nobles who took up arms and rushed out of the villa.
Swordsman Leonard was also mixed in the crowd. Seeing the large number of undead pouring in from outside the manor, the faces of these young nobles showed horror. The manor guards held standard military crossbows at the front, constantly firing at the skeletons and
A crossbow arrow was fired from the zombie group.
Just as Surdak was retreating, the skeleton soldier who was chasing him with an ax and slashing wildly was suddenly penetrated by a huge force. A three-meter-long crossbow arrow penetrated from the top of the skull's head, instantly killing him.
The skeleton soldier was blasted into a pile of broken bones. The crossbow arrows penetrated deeply into the frozen hard soil. The tail of the giant crossbow trembled continuously and made a loud buzzing sound...
