Bathed in the light of the silver moon that filtered through the dense leaves, Lucien turned into an afterimage, galloping cautiously in the slightly dark Melzer Forest. The route he chose was on the periphery where ordinary adventurers often appeared and powerful dark creatures were hidden.
At the junction of the depths of the mountains and rivers, you can occasionally see small goblin tribes surrounding campfires and simple camps along the way, as well as ferocious creatures such as wild wolves and black bears.
Phyllis's manor is opposite to the "Larnaca Canyon" and "Masol River", and is relatively far away. However, after Lucien inspired the power of his blood, his speed was amazing and his endurance was not bad. He was gone in more than 20 minutes.
I have seen the dreamy and beautiful Masol River with a layer of moonlight undulating gently from a distance.
So Lucien stopped and became more cautious.
…………
Outside the eastern entrance of the "Larnaca" canyon is the "Marsol River" flowing through it. It flows all the way east and finally merges into the "Belem River", so this is a river beach with beautiful river pebbles everywhere.
In the black forest, a black figure walked out. He was tall and his face was covered in blurry shadows by a hood. On his shoulders squatted a strange bird with bright red skin but no feathers.
"Fire Wolf" looked around vigilantly, and at the same time used detection magic to check the surroundings, but there was nothing unusual.
He walked slowly step by step, feeling full of anxiety, but he did not dare to look back, because the captain of the night watchman, the "Joker", was afraid that a premature ambush would cause the cunning "Professor" to discover the problem and not show up again, so
He hid far away and waited for his signal.
"I hope that after this success, I can get the 'Magic Gate' potion from the Inquisition, become an official magician, and then join the Night Watch team, and no longer be such a dangerous spy with no guarantee of safety."
Even though Fire Wolf maintained his concentration on casting spells, his heartbeat could not help but speed up. In the past, he had always been on tenterhooks, fearing that if his identity was revealed, he would be hunted to death by magicians. But now, he had to directly face a person with at least three rings.
He is a powerful magician. Although the captain of the night watchman is very fast, it takes up to thirty seconds to come from the hiding place, but in these thirty seconds, can he block the professor's attack?
Thinking of this, Fire Wolf touched his bracelet. It was a three-pole magic item "Fireweaver's Bracelet" awarded by the church. He could only rely on it to hope to hold off the professor for thirty seconds and save his life.
life.
It was already ten forty, and Fire Wolf walked to the entrance of the canyon. The "Professor" had not yet appeared, and the area was so quiet that only the roar of distant beasts could be heard.
After waiting anxiously for a while, seeing that the professor still hadn't arrived, Fire Wolf looked around and suddenly saw fluorescent lights flashing on a huge rock in the canyon.
Holding the casting materials, Fire Wolf cautiously walked over and saw a line of words written in green fluorescent powder on the boulder:
"Change the location and meet you in the black forest south of the canyon..." The corresponding constellation sign is attached at the back.
Although Fire Wolf is not good at astrological magic, he can still calculate the position based on the clear zodiac signs, and he can quickly calculate the specific location.
Fire Wolf is not surprised by the "Professor"'s temporary change of approach. This is a common way to prevent being followed and monitored. When meeting with relatively unfamiliar magic apprentices, if the Professor doesn't do this, Fire Wolf will
I feel like there's something very wrong with this incident.
After notifying the captain of the night watchman of the change with a few normal-sounding chirps of the demon pet "Fire Feather Bird", the fire wolf walked towards the black forest.
The location given by the "Professor" this time was relatively far away. It took more than ten minutes for Fire Wolf to reach the designated location. It was surrounded by tall black fir trees, completely blocking the moonlight and creating complete darkness.
From another direction in the black forest, there were several more roars of beasts, which made people's hair stand on end.
However, these howls made the fire wolf feel slightly relieved, because they were signals that the night watchman had tracked and hidden.
Some of the night watchmen who were good at hiding dispersed and quietly checked the area, fearing that they would be ambushed by the "Professor".
Time passed little by little, but the professor still did not appear. Fire Wolf gradually became impatient and paced back and forth: "Did the professor discover a problem?"
It was 11:30, half an hour had passed since the agreed time, and there was no movement in the dark forest.
The night watchman who was ambushing in the distance gradually lost his patience, thinking that the professor might have noticed something was wrong, so a night watch captain wearing black leather armor, black gloves and a clown mask used a unique method to order his hidden companions.
: "With the Fire Wolf's position as the center of the circle, everyone searched within 500 meters of the nearby black forest. The professor had either discovered the abnormality and left, or he was still hiding within this distance."
The captain of the night watchman, "Joker", makes a last-ditch effort.
The night watchmen Minsk and others in white uniforms immediately took action, diving into the darkness and searching everywhere.
After searching a hundred meters into the black forest to the west of "Fire Wolf", the red-haired Minsk found an ordinary ranger's hut. There was no light shining inside, it was dark and quiet.
…………
In the forest on the other side of the ranger's hut, a night watchman had quietly fallen to the ground, his expression full of shock and fear. Boiling blood mixed with white brains flowed out of the hole in his head and seeped into the black earth.
Moisturize them to make them more fertile.
Next to the dead night watchman, stood a tall and thin man. He was wearing a black windbreaker with silver-white corners. He had a mysterious and terrifying feeling all over his body, and he was putting his right index finger, which was stained with brains, into his mouth.
.
After sucking for a few times, the tall and thin man doubtfully said to the crystal ball held in his left hand: "Your Majesty the High Priest, they are here to hunt down a magician. They should just happen to meet him."
"Such a coincidence? And if they continue searching like this, they will soon find the entrance to the ruins, so Dragan will cooperate with other temple knights to kill them all. Anyway, they can push the magician into an ambush." Inside the crystal ball.
An old and decaying voice came out.
Since Silver Horn is hiding here, he will definitely monitor the nearby area closely. Therefore, after the fire wolf came, he was quickly discovered by the priests. Then the night watchman checked the ambush and search for the "Professor", and exposed their traces.
In the eyes of cultists.
"Everything is as you wish, Your Excellency the High Priest. Haha, killing is like dancing, I like this feeling." Dragan sucked his fingers again, and the black windbreaker floated back, and the whole person merged directly into the darkness.
Under the joint efforts of "Night Killer" Dragan and other dark knights, the night watchmen, who had no idea who the enemy was and their current situation, were silently strangled one by one.
…………
Because they suspected that the "Professor" knew that there were spies in the magic circle, and that this incident was a trap deliberately arranged by him, in order to capture alive the "Professor", a magician with at least three rings, and his possible helpers, the Inquisition dispatched two night watchmen.
There are a total of thirty official priests in the team, strong knights, and there are even four captains and vice-captains at the level of knights!
Except for the high-level forces being held back by the news of the "huge conspiracy" from Camille, this is already nearly half of the strength of the Violite Parish Inquisition, because there are only five such full Night Watch teams!
According to the church's intelligence and judgment, no matter what ambushes or traps the "Professor" has, with the strength of the Night Watch team, they can be solved directly.
Each of these night watchmen is a strong man who has experienced many battles in the dark. Therefore, after the first seven or eight night watchmen died silently, the remaining night watchmen noticed that something was not right in the atmosphere. It seemed that there was something wrong in the forest.
The smell of blood and death wafted!
In the darkness, the captain of the night watchman "Joker" began to try to contact his team members, but as soon as he used his unique method, he immediately felt something was wrong in his heart, so he threw himself forward without hesitation and rolled forward regardless of any image.
A cloud of darkness flew out of the forest and hit the spot where the clown was originally hiding. The soil, stones, grass, and trees disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if they had evaporated out of thin air.
As for the rapidly rolling "Joker", its ten fingers began to play rapidly, as if playing a piano. As he manipulated it, a blurry figure was pulled out from the darkness of the forest, with its hands and feet moving uncoordinatedly.
The guy who was pulled out was none other than "Night Killer" Dragan. He didn't panic and continued to darken deeply, trying to get rid of the invisible thin threads. At the same time, he looked at the "Joker" and sneered: "It turns out
It's you, a guy of 'puppet' blood, who escaped from the darkness and became a lackey of the Inquisition."
"I am the 'manipulation bloodline' given by the Lord, which is completely different from Dragan's 'dark bloodline'." The clown also recognized Dragan, but the funny clown smiling face mask completely covered up all his expressions.
.
While the clown continued to control the opponent's hands and feet, he activated the talisman, and a ray of light flew up into the air, about to explode into the Holy Emblem of Truth, and notified the church's higher-ups for rescue.
But at this moment, an obvious black ripple surged rapidly from the direction of the ranger's hut, hitting the light and completely disappearing before it exploded.
The sixth-level evil magic (divine-like magic) "Magic Devouring", this is a strong man at the level of a cardinal!
…………
In the underground ruins, five people wearing silver priest robes were looking at the two high priests in the center of the altar.
One of them, an old man with a bald head covered with many mysterious symbols, said in an old and decaying voice: "You are all priests who have received the gift of the true God. Now is the time for you to show your devotion to the true God. Lead the priests out and cooperate.
The knight will destroy all these lackeys of the evil god of truth."
Another high priest, his whole person was shrouded in silver robes, and he made a voice as cold as winter: "Although their call for help just now was intercepted by me, except for the people in the nearby black forest, no one else can see it.
Come, no reinforcements from the evil god will arrive in a short time, but time is precious, so in order to prevent accidents, you must solve it as soon as possible."
"Your will is the will of God, respected high priest." The five priests replied at the same time, and then left the temple, leading the priests, a small number of reserve knights, and knight attendants to the exit of the underground palace.
The two high priests stayed in the temple, on the one hand to intercept the night watchman's request for help at any time, and on the other hand to prevent other powerful enemies that may appear, so as to make timely decisions. After all, things always have some coincidences and a bit of weirdness.
.
And those night watchmen, with their own strength advantage, are very sure to solve it. If they escape, the dark forest will be a paradise for the Dark Knight to kill.
…………
Although the Joker's call for help was intercepted, it was enough for other night watchmen and fire wolves in the surrounding black forest to determine that something was abnormal, so the Dark Knights began to strangle with difficulty. The night watchmen slowly gathered in the direction of the clown, which is the ranger's cabin.
.
A night watchman wearing a white bishop's robe, devoutly holding a thick "Holy Book" in his hand, walked in the black forest. As the "Holy Book" was flipped, a huge flame-like light fell from the sky, hitting
Hit a dark knight and make him disappear into ashes.
The fourth-level magic "Flame Strike".
What's even more terrifying is that the night watchman has just performed the "Flame Strike Technique" without any buffer. As the "Sacred Scripture" is flipped again, a blazing wall of fire appears in front of him, helping the two night watchmen to resist it.
Withstood the Dark Knight's attack.
He is another captain of the night watchman, the "Token Bearer", a fifth-level bishop-level strongman who is willing to give up an upright life under the sun and fights endlessly in the darkness for the glory of the God of Truth.
Elsewhere, the night watchmen who reacted also started fighting the dark knights. There were explosions and flashes of light, allowing Lucien, who was sitting quietly on the treetop far away, to judge the situation.
Lucien swayed with the swaying of the treetops in the night wind. He had no idea of approaching the ranger's hut for the time being. Approaching at this time would only involve him in a chaotic battle. He had to wait patiently for a while. So Lucien put his hands on
Hold on to the branches and watch the "fireworks" leisurely.
…………
Minsk relied on the powerful defense capabilities of "Red Dragon Scales" to withstand the first wave of assassinations by the Dark Knight. After a difficult support, he finally waited until the "Joker", "Token Bearer" and others gathered.
Of the thirty night watchmen, only eighteen were left at this time, and nearly half were lost! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a Piaotian Literature member to recommend this work. Your support is mine.
