She is not someone who would abandon her compatriots and escape alone. The most orthodox education she received since childhood gave her the commanding power that a midnight noble should have.
She knew exactly what it meant to run away without a fight in a situation like this within the family.
But she can't go back and choose to fight.
Because she has no compatriots left to speak of, when facing a gold-level enemy who bursts into the battlefield, the destruction of the Midnight Hunters is a foregone conclusion.
The opponent is a white knight who is good at natural psychic tactics and can use divine magic. The terrain here is still forest!
It is simply full of life-threatening elements.
For her, a vampire psionicist who has not yet passed the trial of the Silver Body, to be able to escape from such an enemy is already an undeniable victory.
However, a huge question was echoing in Femis' mind.
Even if these remnants of the old religion are not welcome in the Plantagenet Kingdom, even if the witch hunter group is used as expendable cannon fodder and spread into the Transia region, there is still no one who can restrain a strong man of the gold rank.
action.
Even if Finok really serves the Plantagenet Kingdom now, he should be left with General Loren, the commander of the Pioneer Legion!
Unless the general had lost his mind and gone crazy, he would have dared to let such a "humanoid monster" roam around carelessly.
The most important thing is, if Nofic had been active in Transia before, why did his father know nothing about it?
White knights are not a profession that is good at hiding.
As long as old Finok shows up, he will definitely be caught by the spies of the Blood Vulture clan. His sudden appearance is completely unreasonable, unless
"There is a traitor in the family! The local intelligence network has been disrupted."
A terrible guess appeared in the eldest lady's mind, and perfectly explained the reason for her desperate situation. There was a problem with the Blood Vulture Clan's control of Transia, and the family was unable to detect the real threat.
All the powerful men in the gold rank are being used, and the enemy's goals can be imagined.
Cadman City.
They're going to attack Cadman City!
Coming to this conclusion, the eldest lady held her breath for a moment. The moment she realized that the clan was in danger of being destroyed, Femis became more determined to escape.
She must inform her father of the news immediately, otherwise the loss of the entire Blood Eagle clan will be imminent.
However, the outcome of escape is never determined by the escapee himself.
All she could do was to continuously use psychic skills to disperse more illusions and release them in all directions to interfere with the perception of the pursuers. However, a few minutes later, when the eldest lady was finally about to rush out of the smuggler's woodland, an explosion erupted from behind.
The blazing sunlight swept across the entire forest in an instant like a waterfall of light.
"ah!"
Femis let out a cry of pain.
She seemed to be thrown into a boiling pot. She could feel the coking and burning caused by the ripples of solar energy sweeping across her skin. She was unable to even maintain her flight at this moment, and her whole body was trailing billowing black smoke.
Hit the ground.
This level of psychic burst completely drained the life force of the high-level psychic master of the Ring Tower, who basically launched the final attack with a death wish.
But the effect is gratifying.
The eldest lady, who was lying on the ground in a panic, didn't even need to feel it.
She was certain that the midnight hunters she had gathered had suffered a tragic loss just now, and the question now was, would she still have a chance to escape from this deadly forest that was originally reserved for the enemy?
the answer is negative.
After the eldest lady spent a few minutes to recover from the burns and paralysis, before she could spread her blood wings and take off, the figure holding the oak sword appeared in front of her.
right!
It's the front! Not the back.
This proves that the eldest lady's breakout just now was also under the exquisite control of the white knight. The entire forest confused her, so that instead of getting closer to the border, she went deeper into the forest.
Like a desperate prey being played by a skilled hunter, in the face of crushing strength, no matter how noble her bloodline is, she can't save her from this quagmire and desperate situation.
Old Finok carried the burning oak holy blade and approached Femis in front of him, and the surrounding trees continued to twist with his steps.
Those branches and vines were intertwined to form a dense "birdcage" that even intertwined above the two people's heads, isolating the road to the sky.
"What a cute little girl, but it's a pity that she has a vicious heart. Just like other vampires, you should hide in your darkness and live your life like a mouse.
But you always want to get involved in the world under the sun."
The old knight said with disgust:
"It was you who started the war and made the whole world uneasy. Now it's your turn to pay the price, so don't look like you were bullied, kid.
You asked for this!"
Miss Femis knew she had no way to escape.
At the last moment, she did not want to face eternal silence with a cowardly attitude, so she simply went all out and planned to have a life-and-death battle that she actually didn't like.
The left hand drew out the ceremonial magic blade sword, and the five fingers of the right hand moved to absorb the free dark spiritual energy from the night. Scarlet light danced on the fingertips, and he quickly created a psychic throwing spear with thorns entwined at both ends.
This is also an advanced extension technique of psychic impact, and it is not recorded in the eldest lady's handbook that Murphy learned it.
It's not that the eldest lady is unwilling to teach, it's just that this thing is an advanced application and obviously cannot be mastered by a psychic rookie like Murphy in a short time.
She took a deep breath.
His black hair was flying in the chaotic wind of the forest, but he stared at the old Finock opposite without fear, and provocatively said in his cold voice:
"You bastards of the old religion, don't show the hypocrisy of being forced to fight! Isn't it because you have fallen to this point because you betrayed your oath and pointed your weapons at the people and country you swore to defend ten years ago?
The dignified state religion actually colluded with those idiots in East Prussia who had brains no bigger than walnuts to launch a rebellion!
After you were suppressed, you turned into a lost dog. Is it because we are secretly instigating your King Louis?
The entire Confederation of Portia was involved in the Ten Years' War because of your stupid rebellion! You are part of the chaos and darkness that you hate!
What were you doing at that time, as a self-proclaimed righteous person?
Will he join the rebels in the carnival of slaughtering the people of Ice Bay and Sachs Mountain? Or lead the mob into Bourbon and burn the pearl of Zealand to the ground?
Your words come back to you!
Everything you are suffering now is your own fault!
Do you know why the Blood Vulture Clan deliberately tortures captured witch hunters?
It's not that we are cruel by nature, but the Sealand nobles secretly paid us to do this! Unexpectedly, the people who hate you the most are not us, but your own people.
And you.
Deserve it!”
Although the eldest lady usually doesn't like to talk, her ability to talk is really impressive.
The old knight was speechless after a few sentences that went straight to the core of the problem. He could only silently pick up the holy blade and rush forward to end this meaningless debate.
The eldest lady threw a scarlet spear, but it was cut down by the white knight's sword. In front of the holy blade burning with the purifying fire, all of Femis's skills and knowledge were useless.
After resisting for less than a minute, Old Finock cut off his arm, and the White Knight summoned vines to trap him on the tree trunk.
"Rest in peace, sharp-tongued girl."
He whispered something, and then swung the holy blade and slashed down.
Femis closed her eyes in despair.
She could feel the scorching purifying fire pouring down from the top of her head, which might end all her life in the next second.
However, the pain she imagined did not come, and the eldest lady opened her eyes in surprise, and saw the oak-embellished holy blade stopping steadily in front of her head.
The purifying fire wrapped around the blade is quickly fading away, revealing the smooth sword body engraved with elven writing and the very simple and sacred ancient oak cross guard.
"Are you humiliating me? Kill me!"
The eldest lady was so angry that her fair and excessively fair cheeks were flushed with blood. She swallowed her saliva, thinking that this old knight with thick eyebrows and big eyes was also a man who indulged in evil deeds.
But this is not the case.
Although Nofic's face was expressionless, he was also surprised in his heart.
This wasn't that he was deliberately teasing the little vampire in front of him. The purifying fire on the holy blade faded by itself, and the holy blade that had just screamed in hatred of the vampire also became strangely quiet at this moment.
It was as if the Holy Blade itself was hesitating whether to harm the midnight evil spirit in front of him.
"How can this be?"
The old knight was extremely shocked at this moment.
The oak holy blade in his hand is the Watcher, one of the three holy blades of the old religion. It is a god-given thing inherited from the elves. It is the most disgusting thing for "eternal sinners" like vampires.
Just now, the Midnight Hunters were slaughtered like chickens. How could they take the initiative to recover their power?
He stared at the petite vampire in front of him, then put away his sword thoughtfully, and then took out a black seed under Femis's wide-eyed gaze, pinched her baby-fat cheeks, and forced her to swallow it.
.
"Ahem"
The seeds melted in your mouth, and the strange smell made the young lady cough violently.
She yelled:
"What on earth did you feed me? Dirty bastard! How could you treat someone like this?"
"What do you see?"
Finock ignored the eldest lady's struggle at all. The old knight pressed Femis's head and asked:
"Tell me, what do you see now?"
"Get out! I won't do such shameless things. Ah!"
The eldest lady gritted her teeth and was unwilling to respond.
However, that seed seemed to have a strong hypnotic and confusing effect, causing hallucinations to appear before her eyes, as if the whole world had been turned upside down and twisted, and she could only vaguely hear Old Finock's questions.
"Tell me, kid, what did you see? Describe what you saw! This is important to both of us!"
He continued to question.
Femis felt that his spirit was wandering in a chaotic scene, and he could vaguely see himself walking in intertwined starlight.
She shook her head in confusion and said intermittently:
"Blood, I saw a blood tree. It grew out of an endless pool of blood. It had no leaves, only branches. What was that?"
"Snapped"
This answer made the old knight narrow his eyes, and then he decisively waved his hand to release the eldest lady from the constraints of the blood-sucking vines, and threw her to the ground in the distance.
The violent impact made the eldest lady wake up from the strange illusion.
She raised her head weakly and saw that the old knight had put away his sword and walked towards the depths of the forest.
"Why?"
She shouted weakly:
"Why did you let me go? Are you humiliating me?"
This question stopped the old knight in his tracks.
He didn't look back, but said in a dull and sighing tone:
"Go home and ask your father, poor little girl. I am not letting you go, but your future fate is miserable enough. Letting you live is the best punishment!"
These words made Femis have more doubts in his heart.
But at this moment, she felt as if all her strength had been drained, and she could only watch helplessly as the monster in front of her, who had single-handedly slaughtered her entire team, disappeared into the shadows of the forest.
Such a humiliating and bitter failure made the eldest lady clutch the mud at her hand in pain. After a few seconds of silence, she screamed out of anger.
"ah!!!"
Then, this scream called her a helper that she had not expected, and the effect was as magical as the whistle summoning technique of a small pet trainer.
"Hey, Miss, are you okay?"
Murphy's voice sounded not far away, and then the little players rushed out of the forest that had returned to normal.
They ran over and surrounded the eldest lady who was lying on the ground in a very inelegant posture like a defeated dog. However, they did not reach out to help her. Instead, they started to judge and comment on the side, using weird language that the eldest lady could not understand at all.
Wai Wai.
"You bastard! Murphy! Take care of your rude servants!"
When did the eldest lady suffer this injustice?
She was already injured and weak, and being treated as amusement by a group of young players, she yelled at Murphy anxiously and angrily. Murphy walked slowly to her, stretched out his hand to help her up, and said:
"My servants are like this, rude, brutal but warm-hearted. Don't be angry now. You need to rest. Well, you actually fainted. What a fragile young lady."
