Kunna watched in disbelief as Edson's head was stepped on by Matthew.
Of course she knew that there was a strange necromancer living in this oak forest, and he was suspected to be the one who had the ability to summon the bone dragon, but she never expected that Edson would be defeated so quickly.
Come.
He is the Southern Patriarch of the Calamity Religion, a real fourth-level magician, the organizer of this trip for the three major organizations, and the strongest among them!
This scene also shocked other members.
Their unsteady fighting spirit suddenly melted away like ice and snow.
Many people subconsciously stepped back, wanting to get behind everyone - but found that everyone had stepped back, which meant that no one had stepped back.
After Ederson's head fell to the ground.
The battlefield ahead also instantly became clear.
The originally fearless kobolds scurried towards the cave entrance one by one with their heads in their hands.
However, their way back was blocked by Eli.
The saber-toothed tiger shows off its majesty when it beats up a drowned dog.
One slap at a time, and all the kobolds were quickly wiped out.
The only fish that slipped through the net was the Susuwa demon dog.
This demon's vitality is astonishingly tenacious.
Even though Peggy's head was opened and a small amount of brain fluid was leaked from the side, it still staggered away.
This scene fell in Matthew's eyes.
His brows furrowed.
"The Susuwa Demonic Dog is a creature from another world. It shouldn't be able to maintain its existence in the main material world after the death of the Jackal - wait, there is no kill prompt!?"
Almost at the same time.
Suddenly there was a violent tremor under his feet.
Matthew responded very quickly.
He raised his foot and fired a powerful volley like muscle memory.
boom!
Edson's head exploded in mid-air and turned into a strange blood mist.
Matthew saw it clearly.
There were human faces, bugs, flaky brain grooves, and clusters of extremely evil runes in the blood mist!
at the same time.
The badge of the Moonlight Goddess on his chest actually began to tremble violently.
"retreat!"
Matthew gave a low drink.
Under the cover of the skeletons, he quickly left the vicinity of the blood mist and the headless corpse.
The blood mist octopus pounced on the jackal corpse.
next moment.
A serious and solemn voice came from the blood mist.
The man's speech was very rigid and clear.
It seemed to be echoing in the hearts of everyone present:
"Give you an immortal body. Wherever the night comes, you will live forever and be immortal!"
The voice fell.
The headless corpse of the jackal slowly stood up from the ground.
Unconsciously.
The flat neck of a completely intact head grew again.
Everyone was stunned by this strange scene.
Even for members of evil organizations, this kind of resurrection from the dead is extremely rare!
"Hey hey hey, I'm immortal."
Edson shook his neck unnaturally from side to side, seeming to be adapting to his new head.
His eyes were evil and unscrupulous, locked on Matthew, as if he wanted to eat him alive.
The blood mist still hasn't dissipated.
It envelopes the Gnoll like a halo of protection.
Matthew could sense the strong smell of the realm from the blood mist.
at this time.
A text message composed of moonlight suddenly appeared on the constantly shaking badge.
…
"The master that Jackal Edson believes in is the demon Trier in the Land of the Ancients, and Trier is actually the incarnation of the God of Midnight. The blessing of the God of Midnight is only effective at midnight, and his immortality lasts until dawn.
Blessings will destroy themselves without attack.
——Asiya Moonlight"
…
The god of midnight?
This matter is actually related to Tianlun Palace?
Matthew did not doubt the authenticity of this information.
After all, this is in line with the Moonlight Goddess's many near-pleasant actions. Even if she has plans for him, it will happen later.
But whether it is Assia who releases good intentions, or the God of Midnight who incarnates as a demon to control the sorcerer, it means that the exiled gods seem to be ready to move for some reason.
This is not good news for a stagnant world.
Such thoughts flashed through Matthew's mind.
He suddenly pulled out a crossbow and pointed it at Edson in the blood mist.
"Come on, you can't kill me!"
Ederson yelled crazily.
Matthew judged that he was still in a state of temporary stiffness after resurrection, so he no longer hesitated. The crossbow shot out from the pile of skeleton soldiers and hit Edson in the chest!
The arrow was inserted into the jackal's chest, and the latter pulled it out directly as if he felt no pain, and twisted the arrow into two pieces in front of Matthew.
But Matthew didn't stop.
But seeing his hands rise and fall, he quickly took another strung crossbow from Miaofa's bag and pointed it at Edson again.
Whoosh!
Another arrow.
Edson glared angrily:
"You are doing useless work!"
As soon as he pulled out the second arrow from his chest, the third arrow had already flown, but this time Matthew shot it crookedly, and the arrow stuck in the Gnoll's knee.
Three consecutive arrows made Ederson furious.
The blood mist began to move slowly towards Matthew.
However, Matthew, who had missed three hand crossbows, cunningly retreated towards the oak forest.
He and Eli joined together.
Using Silver Moon Zombies and Skeleton Soldiers as protection, conduct a tactical retreat in an orderly manner.
Only A Bing was ordered by Matthew to harass the sorcerer in the blood mist.
After receiving the order, the soldier immediately limped towards Edson.
His dance steps are sometimes stiff and sometimes silky.
Everyone could only see the skeleton that was always twisting its hips, circling around the blood mist in a tentative manner.
From time to time he would take a stab.
The short knife could always easily tear open the wolf man's skin, leaving traces on his body that were neither deep nor shallow.
But the effect only goes so far.
The blood mist seems to have given Edson an unparalleled vitality.
No matter how A Bing inflicted wounds on him.
He can always recover quickly and his aura becomes stronger and stronger.
"This jackal's melee combat ability is too strong."
Eli said with fear:
"I'm afraid only shield guardians of the same level can receive his hammer head-on, not ordinary warriors."
Matthew nodded slightly.
Paige and Eli are both good melee players at level three, but they are almost no match for Edson. This guy is really too oppressive on the frontal battlefield.
It was precisely because he saw this that he chose to lure the enemy deep and cooperate with the soldiers to successfully attack in a sneak attack.
However, it is not as good as God, who knows that a magician has the blessing of the righteous god. Although Tianlun Palace is far away and the God of Midnight cannot directly intervene on the battlefield, the blessing he gives through the vest is troublesome enough.
"Eli, I need you to cooperate with my skeleton assassin and continue to put pressure on him. I will give you some support later."
Matthew spoke his mind.
Eli didn't refuse, he just said doubtfully:
"He is immortal now. Will your crossbows and our harassment be of any use?"
"I'm not trying to kill him now, I'm just trying to find ways to weaken him as much as possible."
Matthew said calmly:
"Didn't you notice that his movements were much slower than at the beginning?"
Eli suddenly realized:
"Have you tempered the poison?"
Matthew nodded:
"It seems that his immortal body is not omnipotent. The effects of the powerful depletion ray and negative armor have been purified, but the toxins on the crossbow arrows will still make his movements slow, which is not enough to kill him. We are facing a crisis.
It’s a protracted battle.”
Eli took a deep breath:
"I understand, you need me to squeeze out his other abilities."
Matthew's eyes also flashed with deep fear:
"Yes, while others are still hesitant, try to put pressure on him. I suspect that besides resurrection, he still has powerful killing moves, so you have to be careful."
Edson is the most powerful enemy Matthew has faced since time travel.
Since it was an encounter, both sides were almost unprepared. The attack just now was already the best decision made by Matthew through on-the-spot responses.
By now.
Matthew actually doesn't have many cards in his hand. The Bone Dragon, his trump card, must not be played first for two reasons -
First, showing his trump card means that he has to be ready to escape, and it is obvious that he has not reached that stage yet.
Second, Matthew’s trump card is actually an open card.
The Natural Disaster Cult is aware of the existence of the Bone Dragon, but they still dare to come here to cause trouble, which shows that they most likely have the means to fight against the Bone Dragon.
In this situation, showing the bright card first is almost equal to death.
Matthew must rely on other methods to delay and squeeze Ederson!
now.
His eyes were firmly fixed on the gnoll warlock.
His attention was unprecedentedly concentrated and he refused to miss any detail.
Eli understood Matthew's tactics, and switched his wilderness form from a saber-toothed tiger to a more agile jungle lynx, and cooperated with the soldiers to harass Edson.
The injured Peggy was in charge of the rescue a little further away.
Matthew, on the other hand, kept retreating at a neither fast nor slow pace.
In the blood mist.
Ederson was attacked from both sides.
Even though his recovery ability is amazing, he is still harassed endlessly.
The mace in his hand was extremely destructive, but it could not hit A Bing and Eli. The former's steps were weird, he was obviously a skeleton, and his movements were as smooth as an earthworm!
The latter's performance skyrocketed after he transformed into a Bobcat. Moreover, he suffered losses from Mace and was not willing to fight at all, giving Ederson no chance.
The group fought and retreated.
Gradually approaching the edge of the oak forest.
finally.
Ederson also realized that his slow movements were a bit too much.
He threw himself a purification spell to temporarily suppress the poison.
The blood mist dissipated little by little.
He seemed to be completely freed from resurrection catalepsy.
suddenly.
He charged forward with a lunge, and his unexpected acceleration almost hurt Eli, but under Matthew's command, A Bing rushed behind Edson like a ghost!
The firefly and the bright moon are about to repeat their old tricks.
But this time, Edson dodged at the critical moment. The pair of short knives only tore the scalp of the wolf man and did not behead him again.
Unable to succeed, A Bing quickly blended into the shadows.
Ederson was made red-faced by this fly tactic.
He finally couldn't stand it anymore.
In Matthew's fiery gaze.
The jackal suddenly tore off a piece of fur as big as a palm on his chest!
The back of the fur is covered with densely twisted words.
Edson held the fur, glared in the direction where the soldier disappeared, and shouted loudly:
"You don't belong here!"
As he spoke, the fur actually burned out of thin air.
A Bing's figure suddenly appeared.
His movements were a little stiff at first, and then a dark gray negative energy aperture lit up under his feet.
"You don't belong here!"
Edson roared again.
The aperture completely engulfed A Bing.
…
"Tip: Warlock Edson used "Exile Document" on your summon, and the soldier was exiled for a short period of time!
The soldier is currently in the negative energy plane, and there are still: 4 hours left until the next time the soldier is summoned.
…
Exile Document (Magic Pact Enhancement): An exile spell stained with the blood of the great evil demon Triel, which can expel any non-legendary alien creature from the main material world for a short period of time. The duration depends on the level of the exile and the will of the summoner.
"
…
A Bing was exiled.
Ederson was completely reborn, his movements became swift and violent, and Eli's pressure suddenly became much greater.
Ederson forced Eli back with a hammer blow.
Then he rushed towards Matthew desperately.
However, Matthew's eyes shone with unspeakable excitement.
"So, the exile document is your trump card against the bone dragon?"
He didn't rush to take action.
Instead, he ordered the skeleton soldiers and zombies to disperse.
But he ran quickly towards the oak forest.
In the woods.
The sound of horse hooves could already be heard.
Matthew ran with a smile on his face.
he knows.
You will never fight alone.
