In the hall of Xia Jin Tower, Leya and Tang De suddenly stopped after a brief conversation. Or rather, they didn't stop, but they both looked in the direction of the door, where the high arched door was tight.
It was closed, and there was nothing unusual. At this time, Lich Tang De took the initiative to speak: "Ms. Leya——"
"Is this what you are talking about...?" Leya's voice is still crisp, with some childishness unique to the Papal people, but as the leader of the Knights of the Holy Word, it also has irresistible majesty.
.
"Those with evil intentions," Tang De helped her complete the rest of the words and nodded: "These guys came so fast, I'm afraid they chased me all the way from Du Lun to here."
"Chasing you?"
"Ha, it's a long story."
But there was a flash of fire in Tang De's dark eyes, and he pulled out his chair and stood up to salute Leya: "Ms. Leya, if we fight side by side, these are actually——"
But before he could finish his words, there was a loud bang, and the huge shield in the hand of the knight leader was heavily inserted into the ground. She pulled out the long sword from behind the shield with one hand, and looked seriously towards the direction behind the door - where
, below the steps outside Xia Jin Tower, the messenger was stopping with the young alchemist.
An army of the undead also stopped behind them. They were countless skeletons, ghosts and ghost wolves at a glance.
The former was raising his head and looking at this chronological building. But beside him, the young man was looking at a black knight in the courtyard - the latter looked like an armored statue, holding a sword in both hands.
Standing still in that place - the young alchemist took a step back and said cautiously: "Mr. Messenger, then, the lich is also in this place."
The messenger looked back at him with a hint of contempt: "Are you scared?"
"That's not true, it's just..." the young man said as he glanced around nervously. At the outermost periphery, the skeletons were already making a commotion, and they seemed to be trying to move forward crookedly.
But the messenger raised the undead staff in his hand - compared with the one lost during the battle of Elmao Castle, this undead staff was obviously much more gorgeous. A white bone claw on the head of the staff tightly grasped a
A black crystal - at this moment, the light appeared on the black crystal, and these undead souls immediately fell silent.
He sneered: "Sir Tang De, we have been chasing you for so long, you don't think we can't even guard against this little trick of yours, do you?"
"The Staff of Shadows," Lich Tang De's voice came from the tower: "It seems that you four-legged snake worshipers have gained something from the Tomb of the King..."
The messenger's face turned cold: "Donde, do you think everything will be fine if you hide in this place? Hand over the boy and the Dragon-Slaying Holy Sword in your hand, and I can spare your life for the sake of Lord Nicol Bolas.
.”
"Spare my life?" Tang De Jiejie laughed twice, without explaining the other party's misunderstanding. But as soon as his laughter ended, the door of the Xia Jin Tower suddenly rumbled and cracked, and slowly opened to both sides.
But on the stairs, the first thing that appeared was not the figure of the lich Tang De, but a short little lady and the big shield in her hand.
Leya remained motionless, standing inside the gate, looking down at the sea of undead outside, but she was not afraid at all.
The messenger immediately recognized that it was a Holy Chosen One, because the Papalar people were not keen on the profession of knights. However, it was within his expectation that one or two of these Holy Chosen Ones would be left in this place.
Knowing that a battle was inevitable, he didn't waste any time, so he lowered the 'Shadow Staff' in his hand and placed it heavily on the ground.
Beside the two of them, the undead army surged forward as if they had received an order.
and passed two people.
Walking at the forefront was the crooked army of skeletons, but they had just passed through the courtyard. A red light appeared under the armor of the black knight standing in the courtyard. He seemed to suddenly come to life. He raised his head and held the sword with both hands.
, a sword was swung forward.
I saw a dark half-moon light sweeping across the sea of skeletons, and all the bones in front of me were missing.
The messenger didn't feel any heartache when he saw this, he just urged the undead army to move forward——
The green ghost army passed through the skeletons and caught up from behind. The black knight, who mainly attacked with physical attacks, had no way to deal with these spiritual creatures. He could only let them scream past him - if they were living bodies, they would have been killed by the ghosts when they penetrated.
He will be dead after that moment.
However, both sides are undead, so they can only have nothing to do with each other.
At this moment, Tang De's figure finally appeared in another direction.
I saw it falling to the ground like a black smoke, and immediately formed a skeleton - the lich did not need to use the undead staff, just pointed on the ground with his hand, and a three-dimensional creature many times larger than the ghosts controlled by the messenger appeared.
A giant dog leaps out from the ground.
It was also green and transparent, and also in the form of a spirit body. The three giant heads swallowed the ghosts rushing towards it, and the screaming banshees were instantly wiped out.
But when the two sides were fighting fiercely, in the shadow of the ruins, dozens of ghost wolves were walking along the edge of the broken wall. Their target was not the lich Tang De who was commanding the three giant mastiffs to fight.
, but headed straight towards the gate of Xia Jin Tower.
Ghost wolves are good at sneaking, and they are creatures of the Kingdom of Shadows - some people say they are the king of hounds under the Throne of Shadows, and the descendants of Aches. Although their appearance is unremarkable, they are actually a very high-level creature.
Undead creatures.
Their individual strength is between level 35 and 40, and what's even more frightening is that they are often good at group hunting tactics.
When these 'hounds' from the Kingdom of Shadow sneaked into the battlefield silently, Tang De was actually trying to find their traces - ghost wolves are undead creatures, but they are also shadow creatures - they cannot be summoned by ordinary necromancy.
, even Tang De himself is no exception.
Therefore, although it can sense undead creatures, it is somewhat powerless against these uninvited guests from the Kingdom of Shadows.
Moreover, the staff of shadow in the messenger's hand has been interfering with its control over the dark power.
The messenger watched this scene from a distance and couldn't help but sneer. He looked at the shadow and was thinking about the direction of the Xia Jin Tower, but the two people above didn't check anything, and then suddenly raised their hands
He raised the Shadow Staff in his hand and pointed in that direction.
The shadow suddenly turned into seven or eight giant black wolves with strong physiques. With white phosphorus fire in their eyes, they jumped up and rushed towards the female knight leader on the steps.
But the next moment, the messenger's face turned gloomy.
In his somewhat surprised gaze, the Papalar lady turned around as if she had expected it, and raised the sword in her hand.
I saw a cross sword light blooming between the seven and eight ghost wolves. Wherever the sword passed, it was as powerful as breaking bamboo. The golden light blade seemed to tear apart a dark shadow, causing the ghost wolves to fly back one after another. Seven Zero
Eight fell to the ground.
Then Leya turned around again and raised the big shield in her hand, allowing the ghost wolves that rushed behind to hit her big shield. And these undead creatures from the Kingdom of Shadow opened their huge mouths,
He bit down on the shield, but a circle of golden light suddenly bounced off the huge shield in the hand of the female knight leader.
Any ghost wolf touched by this golden light will explode from the head back, and finally turn into a rain of light.
Shield reverse.
Among the Iron Guards, all the top selectors are familiar with this move. When Leya was training with Fang Plover, she had never actively used this move.
Because this is one of the Iron Guard's trump cards, and it is almost impossible to prevent. Even if she teaches Fang Plover, she can't come up with any way to deal with it given Fang Plover's level. However, for the combat craftsman, the threat of shield counterattack is actually
It's not that big.
Just like she could only kill these ghost wolves at this moment, but could not pose a threat to the necromancer himself.
But enough is enough.
"Be careful behind you," Tang De also reminded: "Ms. Leya."
A ghost that had slipped through the net was coming out of the wall and heading towards her.
But in fact, Leia didn't need it to remind her. The little female knight leader seemed to have eyes behind her back, and struck out with a sword in her backhand - before the sword blade came, a golden rain swayed out from her sword, but with a trace of brilliance,
The ghost and the nearby undead were instantly turned into ashes.
"Dragon Knight Domain."
Only then did the messenger feel a little bit in trouble. This Holy Chosen One was much more powerful than he had imagined.
That's a dragon knight.
And it is the type of dragon knight that causes the summoning system the most headaches - the dragon knight of the protection system.
The summoning system, including the undead system, is mostly good at using more to defeat the smaller, but when the quantity increases, just like the construction lords of the combat craftsmen, the quality is not necessarily high. When low-quality creatures face the protection profession, they often
Seems a little too weak.
This is especially true for a full-time protector like Leia who came from the Iron Guard all the way. The undead creatures in the hands of the messenger are not actually unable to get close to the opponent. They only attack the opponent once, and the opponent is not harmed. However, his own undead are injured due to the counterattack.
It disappeared into ashes.
If Fang Plover were here, he would probably laugh out loud when he saw this scene. Of course he would not tell these two people - because this female knight leader not only represents the pinnacle of protection in the domestic competition area, but is also the
A person who carries forward the current of anti-injury.
Wouldn't it be a waste of reputation to stick to the knighthood?
Moreover, in this genre, Leya is one of the few who is equipped with both offense and defense.
"Ms. Leya," Tang De obviously saw that the female knight was very skillful, so he said: "The Shadow Staff can continuously summon the undead from the Shadow Realm. This is not the way to go. I will delay the opponent's offensive. You
Find a way to deal with the other side's necromancer."
Leya didn't speak when she heard the words, she just responded with actions. She suddenly sheathed her sword and inserted it into the shield. Then she raised her head and blocked the shield in front of her.
When the young alchemist saw this scene, his expression changed: "Be careful, that's——!"
But of course the messenger knew what this move was, but his expression only changed slightly and he turned around.
"Petrified Shield."
A dazzling light radiated from the big shield in Leya's hand, and everything illuminated by this light - whether it was a spirit body or a non-spirit body, whether it was the enemy or ourselves, was all turned to stone. But Leya didn't stop for a moment,
Then he raised the big shield with both hands and put it heavily in front of him.
"revenge."
A loud noise came, and with the female knight leader as the center - or the giant shield in her hand as the center, it was like a giant fist stretched out from the void, hitting the ground with one punch - the steps and the ground began to sink.
, and a shock wave swept across in all directions.
At that moment, it was as if all the damage she had absorbed before was released under this blow, and wherever the shock wave passed, the undead were wiped out.
The subsided ground extended forward in a conical shape, spreading to nearly a hundred meters before stopping. At this moment, in the courtyard, except for the black knight who could barely stand, there was only a wreckage left.
Although the sinking ground stopped, the air waves continued to move forward, sweeping through the newly emerged undead army behind - the thirty or forty level undead summoned by these shadow staffs were okay, but the young people around the messenger
He spat out a mouthful of blood with a whoosh, flew out, and hit the privet tree behind him.
The messenger turned back and looked at this scene coldly.
He looked at Leya again, then raised the Shadow Staff in his hand and made a strange gesture.
On the other side, Leya's offensive did not stop. The female knight leader said nothing, just raised the giant shield slightly with both hands, and then charged forward with the giant shield on her head. Because the fulcrum of the giant shield was still in contact with the ground
, when she charged, she actually drew a long spark on the stone slab.
Under the twilight, it looked like a fire dragon winding towards the messenger.
The momentum was so astonishing that the messenger couldn't help but take a step back, but the expression on his face did not change. After making the gesture, he gently put the staff on the ground - the shadow creatures on the battlefield seemed to be still, no longer there.
Fighting with Tang De's undead.
Only a few skeletons and ghosts were still approaching the female knight leader.
But before they could get close to her, Leya's long sword stuck behind her shield was unsheathed again. Others didn't even see clearly how she took action. They saw that the winding golden sparks suddenly burst out from left and right.
Light rain.
After the light rain, thirty or forty meters apart, all the surrounding undead were broken at the waist, fell sideways, and turned into a burning golden flame.
"The sword of the first enemy..."
The young man lying under the privet tree almost groaned.
Revenge the enemy first, attack the enemy first.
In the domestic competition area, there is only one person who can use this trick.
"It's Holy September!" He couldn't help shouting at the top of his lungs, and while coughing loudly, he reminded the messenger in front: "...be careful, that is the contemporary grand master of the Knights of the Holy Word."
"Léa Senal?"
"Ahem, it's her."
The messenger seemed a little calm.
The Grand Master of the Knights of the Holy Word is of course the Dragon Knight.
And what kind of fighting power a top selector of the second world, a dragon knight should be, was vividly displayed in front of the two people at this moment. And that's not all - because the dragon knight has not yet appeared. It's just that the messenger lightly
He lightly held the Shadow Staff in his hand, then raised his head and looked at the other party.
In just an instant, Leya was not far away from him.
This distance, compared to a melee profession and a necromancer, is obviously extremely disadvantageous to the latter.
But at this moment, the messenger just raised his hand gently and pointed forward - at that moment, an ominous premonition suddenly arose in Leya's heart. It was obviously not just an illusion, nor a keen intuition - but a warning from the Dragon Knight Realm.
At the same moment, the voice of Dragon Soul also came from her mind, a little dull: "Be careful, Miss Knight." Leya stopped suddenly, and took advantage of the situation to spin the big shield in her hand and throw it forward.
Under the gazes of several people, the shield roared and flew towards the messenger.
But while everyone was watching, a purple-black flame suddenly rose where the messenger was pointing. The flame rose up and instantly transformed into a human form, holding a sharp axe.
Leya could see clearly that the figure made of flames was clearly a roaring dwarf with sprouting beard and hair. The flames even depicted the equipment on the opponent's body, including thick scale armor, a horned helmet on his head, and a sharp ax in his hand.
There is also a shining anvil emblem on it.
She couldn't remember where she had seen this emblem for a while, but she instinctively felt that it looked familiar, and at the same time a huge uneasiness arose in her heart - this uneasiness naturally also came from the warnings of the Dragon Knight Realm and Dragon Soul.
The next moment, the dwarf knocked away her giant shield with one blow, and then dwarfed slightly - and disappeared from her sight the next moment.
Leia was slightly startled.
This is something she has never encountered before.
But Tang De's warning came from behind: "Be careful, behind!"
Only then did the female knight leader realize that what had been in her sight before turned out to be just an afterimage - at this moment, a shrieking wind had roared from behind her - and Leya could tell almost from the sound alone.
The ax blade deforms in the air.
How could it be so fast?
The shield was no longer in her hand. Leya frowned and could only block it with her backhand sword.
But as soon as she blocked it, there was a cracking sound from the legendary sword in her hand. She only felt a huge force coming from behind, and then the sword in her hand shattered into pieces, and the fragments burst out. Fortunately, she was
Wear heavy armor, otherwise this blow will seriously injure her.
But even so, Leya also felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but rush forward a few steps. Then she looked at the broken sword in her hand in disbelief.
Although this legendary long sword is not considered top-notch equipment, it has been with her for several years since arriving in the second world. She has fought against countless top masters, but she has never suffered damage to the sword during a sword fight.
Every cent.
Unexpectedly, it was just the first blow, and the sword shattered inch by inch.
She looked back at the purple flame monster. There had never been anything like this in her memory. What exactly was it? Why did such an existence exist in the first world?
This is obviously inconsistent with her knowledge.
Just Leya gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, then reached out to catch the giant shield that flew back, and subconsciously prepared to summon her own dragon knight. This purple flame was definitely a dragon knight-level monster. If she didn't try her best,
I'm afraid it will be difficult to fight with it.
But it was at this moment that her movements froze.
Because the messenger's hand movements were continuous, he summoned two groups of the same purple flame monsters around him - only this time, one tall and one short, they seemed to be two human beings, a man and a woman, instead of the previous dwarves.
Lich Tang De watched this scene from a distance and said nothing. He didn't care about the three-headed giant mastiff he summoned. He turned around and hurriedly escaped along the ruins on the other side of Xia Jin Tower. Only
Leave the female leader of the Knights of the Holy Word alone in this place.
