The Silman River Valley has been turned into a land of ashes. It's still dark at night. Under the moonlight, the army of the undead divided into several groups and marched along the rolling hills. Looking down the river beach, only a few scattered stars were left in Owl Town.
The remains of ruins and countless skeletons circled both sides of the town, and the wilderness echoed with a monotonous and neat sound of clicking. Between the long queues, there were towering piles of corpses, and the corpse witches were picking them out.
The intact remains were then reawakened as warriors. The cold wind at night blew from the direction of the pass, seeming to carry the eerie spells they chanted, making the atmosphere of the entire valley even more eerie.
The blood staff stood alone in the night wind, the cold wind still tugging at the corners of the ghoul's robe. It glanced at a mutilated corpse not far away. It should be a human militiaman. Judging from the wounds, he should have died.
Only half of the body was left in the hands of the fear spirit, and the hand was still tightly grasping a sharp rock on the ground. It could imagine that he must have desperately tried to break free before he died, but the fear spirit used its sharp claws to tear him apart.
His body was dead. It raised its head again and looked into the river valley. The battle in the river valley had long ended. There was no living creature anywhere it could see, only a dead silence.
This is a perfect victory.
As if witnessing the prophecy in the Black Prophecy Book, the kingdom in the darkness in the east will surely rise.
"Those pathetic Eruin bastards must not understand why they lost so miserably." Behind the blood stick, a young man with a face as pale as a dead man showed his snow-white teeth and smiled. He did not have fangs, nor did he look like one.
He had the eyes of a black knight with ghostly eyes. He had no psychic marks on his body and was not a necromancer. He was wearing a neat black dress, as if he had just returned from a funeral. He took a deep breath: "The magic power in the land
The taste is really fragrant. If it is in the Sea of Dead Moon, only the real great lords are qualified to own such a territory."
He looked at the blood staff again and shook his head with great pity: "I really don't understand why you can't defeat such a weak opponent. I don't understand, but such a humble guy is not qualified to occupy such a good land. This kingdom will
All that's left is the tombstones and the cemetery."
The blood staff snorted coldly. These dark lords came from the Sea of the Dead Moon. It is said that in the magic barren lands in the east, the conflict between necromancers and necromancers is even more ruthless. That is the place of the Four Wars. But these unruly people
The untamed guy is indeed very powerful. The necromancer there invented the spell to extract the half-corporeal and half-spirit fear spirit from the body of the pterosaur, as well as a method for the corpse witch to command the skeleton knights. Their addition greatly enriched the story.
His army, now Eruin, no longer puts it in his eyes. In his opinion, whether it is the Southern Army or the Vanmere Army, they are all vulnerable. Only the Highland Knights are worth fighting.
"I heard that there is a white lion army in the north of the human kingdom. I wonder what its combat capability is?" the young man turned around and asked.
"There used to be one, but it was defeated by the Southern Army. I heard that the little princess dismembered the army belonging to her brother. Now that army has ceased to exist in name only for this kingdom." Eruin's civil war between the north and the south was only
Less than four months after it ended, the Blood Staff was not very clear about the details of that war, but even so, there were still many rumors and losers who had experienced the war flow into the dark country. What he chose to believe was that most of the darkness at the moment
A statement recognized by all the lords.
"That's not worth mentioning."
The young man's contemptuous tone spread far away along the night wind. Above his head, under the starry night, a fear spirit was screaming through the night, and behind it were dozens of monsters with the same wings spread.
Like a floating shadow, it swept over the entire valley area. Viewed from the sky, dots of phosphorescent light appeared on the ground. Three neat long dragons were formed, and the heads of the long dragons were passing through the Golan-Elsen Passage and entering the Slovak region.
In front of them, there is already an endless lowland area.
That's the capital of the province. It's in the direction of Fort Kurk.
But in the hilly area further to the east, a small group of people and horses is standing on the edge of the forest. "One, two, three, four..." A group of fourteen people, standing next to the horse, is a skinny young man with a sallow complexion.
He was counting the fires in the valley below in a low voice. From this distance, the nearest fire looked no more than the size of a fingernail, while the farther ones looked like embers and sparks from a campfire. These fires were distributed far and near throughout Silman.
In the river valley, it was like a string of beads in the dark night. The young man's face became a little ugly. After he finished counting, he turned back to the others and replied: "The White Wings Cavalry Regiment should be complete. Owl Town, Roden, and Mo Town are complete.
, I don’t know how many people survived, I guess not many, Thumbs and the others just came back from Roden a few days ago, and they said there are not many people who escaped, these people should all be dead."
"Can you please say a few words less, it sounds really harsh." The young man who was still sitting on the horse was a little annoyed. If they had heard in the past that the White Wings Cavalry Regiment had been wiped out, they would have high-fived each other, but seeing it with their own eyes
Seeing such a scene, everyone present felt a little unable to laugh. Every ball of fire in the darkness was countless lives. This reminded them of their hometown. If it was true as the Lord Lord said, maybe one day the entire Egypt
Lu Yin would become like this, and he couldn't help but shudder.
Everyone present had the same idea at the moment. They all turned around and looked at the young man wearing a vest and shirt standing at the end. Caglis was putting down the brass telescope in his hand and handed it to a man next to him.
The young non-commissioned officer of the White Lion Guard, after experiencing the Battle of Ampersel, he and the young people around him rarely see the youthfulness they had in Tonigel, and their every move has become calmer, or
He said, like a real soldier. He looked at these teenagers dressed like mountain people. Some of them should be the people who were rescued from the Shaflund mine by the lord at that time. Brando once and he
He still didn't believe it when he said that these people were destined to achieve great success, but now it seemed that the Lord's ability to foresee the future was indeed extraordinary.
The young man named Ke Wen led a group of them directly over the Grahal Mountain after leaving Schavlund. When the Southern Army left, they attacked the mining area south of the Tosankad Forest and dragged out a large number of torture prisoners there.
Then go east and enter the hills of the Silman area, where you are the king of the mountains. Although you can't get rid of the atmosphere of bandits, it has gradually become the climate. The key is that the group of torture prisoners selected by the young man were almost all
Those who offended the nobles and were exiled. But none of the truly tough and rebellious people were wanted. On the surface, it seemed a little unwise, but if you taste it carefully, there is another meaning in it. That young man is a little bit
It's not simple either, Kagliris thought silently in his heart, "Mr. Kalilis. What should we do now? Should we go back first?" At this time, the young man on horseback asked.
"Shh-" Caglis raised a finger and made a silent gesture to the others.
"Is there something wrong?"
Caglis nodded.
"Hurry and take cover!"
The group of people quickly retreated from the open area on the top of the hill into the forest behind them. About a minute later, a whistling wind passed overhead. The young people hiding in the bushes stared at the shadows flying overhead with pale faces.
There were seven of them in total, flying back and forth. Caglis was the first to pull the horse up from the ground. The white lion sergeant beside him shook his head and said: "It's not a white-bone vulture. I have never seen such a thing before."
"Is it a bone dragon?" the young people were chattering.
But Caglis pursed his lips and shook his head. It was not a bone dragon. The bone dragon had the innate fear aura of advanced undead creatures. He had seen Aloz in Valhalla, and he had no idea about the aura of dragon creatures.
There was some impact. When those things passed over their heads just now, he didn't feel the panic from the bottom of his heart at all. What's more, for a bone dragon, the size of those things was too small.
"Mr. Caglis?"
"They seem to be looking for something." Caglis replied, "Let's take a look first. It is not so easy for them to find us in the hills. When daytime comes, the undead will shrink their defenses and return by then."
"
…
A dozen skeleton knights were galloping along the mountain road. The metal chainmail armor on the war horses clashed and clattered in the night. When the horses' hooves hit the ground heavily, the sound they made was far different from the thick and heavy sound of ordinary war horses.
There were some hollows, like sounds coming from the netherworld. They were always looking into the valley below, and their eyes burning with soul fire soon saw two human cavalry running wildly, each other walking along the
They had been fleeing in this direction for half an hour, and the horse that was sitting down was almost unable to hold on anymore.
The leading skeleton knight pointed the Stygian steel scimitar in his hand downwards, and dozens of undead knights immediately turned around. They rushed into the forest and chased them up the hillside. In this area, the woods and shrubs on the hillside were relatively sparse.
But there were still skeleton knights crashing into trees from time to time and being shattered to pieces. However, the remaining undead didn't even look at their defeated counterparts. After passing through the nearly 100-meter-long forest, they suddenly emerged from the meadow area.
Ivan happened to see this scene when he turned around. Under the bright moonlight, eleven skeleton knights shot out of the dark and dense forest with green phosphorus fire in their eyes. Their bare arms held up spears and scimitars in the moonlight.
The cold light reflected brightly, and he couldn't help but be frightened out of his wits.
"Xianali, we are dead!"
"Shut up!" Shanali replied angrily, but he knew in his heart that he might really die this time. These damn skeletons don't know what endurance is, and they might just keep chasing until dawn.
, but there was still a long time before dawn. After such a long period of galloping, and still in the mountains, the horses they sat on could no longer hold on for that long.
"Hey, kid." He suddenly shouted.
"What?" Ivan replied out of breath. His face was pale and there was cold sweat on his forehead, as if he had a serious illness. His riding skills were only average, and he was limited to being able to ride a horse.
It is a miracle that he was able to gallop through the mountains due to the pressure of survival despite being on such a long journey. However, the things he encountered along the way were enough to scare him out of his courage. If
If it weren't for his luck, he would have fallen down the mountain stream or hit that tree and died.
"I'll lure them away. You run eastward and abandon your horse when you enter a dense forest. Once you get there, you'll be safe." Shanali took a breath and replied.
The young man's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the back of the old cavalry and almost cried. He quickly shook his head firmly: "No, let's go together. You rescued me. How could I leave you and run for my life? I can't do it."
arrive!"
"If we can't do it, we'll die together, you idiot." Shanali cursed.
"If we die together, we will die together!"
"Don't be stupid, we don't need to give them double military exploits." Shanali reprimanded loudly, and then added to himself: "Okay, although military exploits may not mean anything to them."
"Then I'll lure them away. You saved me once, and I'll save you once. We're just even." Ivan replied. Shanali glanced at him and couldn't help but sneered: "Don't be ridiculous.
Well, it's only because of your poor riding skills that you didn't get killed by Martha. If you try to distract them, the end result is not to die together." Ivan suppressed his blush, but he knew Shanali well.
What he said was true, and I couldn’t say a single word.
"Okay, you still have your fiancée to see, but I have nothing to worry about. I'll go get some helpers later, and you can live on with me." The old cavalry shook his head: "Listen up, recruits,
Don't act so coquettishly, like a bitch, I'm telling you, I owe you more lives on the battlefield than you have ever eaten, and now it's my turn to repay my old comrades, go.
Go ahead and live well."
Ivan stared at him closely, knowing that he had made up his mind. He gritted his teeth to force himself not to cry, but he couldn't make a sound and could only nod his head. "That's right." Shanali
As if talking to himself, he suddenly drew the long sword from his waist, shouted, tightened the reins, turned around and killed the skeleton knights. The young man seemed to hear what he shouted clearly -
It was for Eruin. But following the sound of the wind, it sounded vaguely like the howl of a wild beast.
He turned around and drove his horse forward desperately, but looking at Shanali's getting smaller and smaller figure behind him, he rushed into the enemy formation, chopped down a skeleton knight with one sword, and then inserted himself between them.
However, those simple-minded skeletons were obviously shaken. They quickly turned around and chased Shanali. Soon, the chasing parties disappeared.
But just a few seconds later, he heard a faint shout coming from the forest over there:
"You damn skeleton, go to hell!"
"Rosa—!"
Ivan coughed loudly, as if he felt a pungent feeling filling his lungs, but he understood that Shanali didn't have much time left for him, and those skeletons would soon catch up again. He raised his head,
I want to find the forest that Shanali told me. But I can only see the open mountainside meadow, a flat area, and some sparse woodland a little further away, but it is impossible to avoid the undead of Madala in this kind of forest.
pursuit.
He anxiously drove his mount forward, bypassing a large forest, and a more open grassland appeared behind the shrubs, but at the end of the grassland, something like a black carpet vaguely appeared at the far end of the field of vision.
It's a forest!
Ivan felt happy, but then he felt a bit bitter in his mouth. The distance was too far, at least several miles away, and he himself didn't know whether the horse he was sitting on could last so long. Suddenly there was a sound behind him.
He felt something in his heart when he heard the hollow sound of horse hoofbeats. When he turned around, he saw several skeleton knights appearing at the edge of the forest. There were seven in total. Shanali killed four skeleton knights alone——
But it's a pity that the rest is not something he can deal with. "No, you must live!" Ivan gritted his teeth and said to himself. Now his life not only belongs to himself, but also to his fiancée, and
Shanali, no matter what, he will try his best.
He clamped the horse's belly and let the spurs pierce the horse's belly to make it go faster, trying to distance itself. But the monsters behind him were as fast as floating ghosts, and the two sides kept their distance for about a few minutes.
It was time, and the forest ahead was approaching, but at this moment, Ivan felt his body lighten, as if a huge force came from behind, and his whole body rose into the air and fell heavily on the grass. He
He was beaten to pieces, and there were burning scratches all over his body and arms, but his mind was very clear and he understood what happened. He grabbed the dirt and climbed up. When he looked back, he saw his horse lying on the ground, vomiting.
Bai Mo couldn't help it anymore. Ivan couldn't help but scream. The forest was only a hundred meters away from him, but he didn't expect that he failed at the last moment. He tried to stand up and run forward, but as soon as he stood up, he fell into another trap.
Fell to the ground.
He rolled into a ball on the ground in pain, only to realize that his leg had been broken.
It's over.
Ivan was filled with despair. The terrifying riders behind him and the skeletal horses they were sitting on were getting closer and closer, but he had no choice but to close his eyes and wait for death.
But at this moment, a silver light suddenly flashed in the forest ahead. This silver light made Ivan slightly startled. Before he could react, he saw the skeleton knight rushing at the front suddenly turned over and fell off his horse. It was naked.
On the head of the skull, there was an arrow that was still shaking slightly. The cold light in the forest was just the beginning, as if suddenly, a dozen black shadows jumped out from the forest, they were cavalry,
But they were definitely not from the White Wings Cavalry Regiment, because Ivan had already seen the armor of the cavalrymen who were getting closer and closer shining faintly in the moonlight, with the lion's head shining brightly on the armor.
The cavalry staggered past him, their hooves falling like rain. The young man was still dreaming. He vaguely remembered that he seemed to have heard of such an army there.
"Soldiers, follow me to attack and crush these bastards!"
Caglis's roar resounded throughout the valley for a while.
