Seeing the army of dryads rushing down from the mountain, Arthur smiled coldly.
Those monsters turned from trees actually move very slowly. Their legs, which are specially made from tree roots, are comparable to elephant legs. Every step they take will cause a small earthquake on the ground. Their arms are those countless
When the branches are highly activated with magic, even hard branches can be waved freely like whips, whipping everything around them.
They neither bleed nor feel pain, and cutting them with ordinary swords is like tickling them. Even Arthur's Seraph Holy Sword cannot approach these giant monsters and chop them down without being counterattacked.
These monsters are almost invincible. Fernandez probably thought that as long as he summoned the tree demon, he would be invincible.
But.
As Arthur moved, he continuously fired the crystal gun in the direction of the tree demon.
"Oh, so dangerous!" Looking at the oncoming crystal gun, the cardinal controlled the tree demon to block it. The tree demon's branch arms, which were full of leaves and extremely dense, easily blocked the crystal gun, which was highly poisonous.
The crystallized gun was completely unable to harm Fernandez at all.
"You want to use that poisonous thing to attack my body and kill me with one blow? ------ Unfortunately, there is no point if you can't hit!" He said, still standing at the back of the dryad army,
The tallest tree demon's shoulders were closely protected.
Arthur smiled again, and while walking to keep a distance from the dryads, he quickly threw the crystallized gun, still firing continuously around Fernandez. The dryads gradually surrounded the King of Knights, but the four knight golems beside him
He was also fighting hard, fighting against the dryads. Although it was not evenly matched, he was at least able to hold off the dryad army for a few more seconds.
A few seconds is enough.
By the time Fernandez discovered the problem, the surrounding locust army had already surrounded him.
"Huh? Get out of here!" he ordered, thinking that the locusts would still obey his orders.
However, these hundreds of locusts were pierced with fragments of the crystallized gun and were already undead animals controlled by Arthur. Not only did they not obey Fernandez's instructions, they even flew towards the cardinal like crazy and began to eat them.
Those dryad branches and leaves!
Normally, the nature of locusts is not to eat things that cannot be eaten, so the familiar locusts controlled by Fernandez did not bite Arthur to death immediately.
However, after becoming undead, these locusts are no longer restricted by their nature and have become more "free". They only obey a simple command from Arthur--"eat"!
They will eat trees when they see them, even if the tree monster is hundreds of times more powerful than them. The tree monsters wave their branches and fight back violently, beating the locusts to pieces, but the undead are not afraid of death and still cling to the trees.
The demon army won’t let go!
And Arthur is also ready. Unlike the previous poisonous necromancy crystal gun, he has enchanted the crystal gun with [Fire] this time, and it is also a high-heat flame enchantment!
Whoosh!------The fiery crimson crystal gun flew out and hit the tree demon controlled by Fernandez.
Fernandez, who was being pestered by locusts and whose vision was restricted, didn't even realize that what was coming was a dangerous flame crystal gun. He still let the tree demon wave his branches to deflect the crystal gun!
As a result, the crystal gun that hit the branch naturally shattered instantly and turned into hundreds of burning crystal fragments, contaminating everything around it!
To say that the Dryad is "invincible" is naturally to say that it is "invincible" compared to ordinary attacks. But Arthur's crystallized gun has already surpassed the fighting methods of this era, and so has the [Fire] enchantment on it. Crystallization
The fragments of the gun easily set the dryads on fire!
"What? How could that happen!?" Fernandez exclaimed while waving his staff to drive away the locusts around him.
"I will." Arthur sneered.
That's right. There's nothing wrong with it. Dryads have their only weakness, they are flammable. And as the action time prolongs, they will become more and more flammable!
After all, they are not creatures that should normally appear in nature, they are just puppets evoked by magic. The roots of these dryads broke away from the ground and stopped absorbing water from the soil. But they have to move, and every movement consumes
Heat, this makes the transpiration that the dryads originally had become a hundred times more intense, and the water stored in the big trees naturally evaporates at an alarming speed!
Dryads that have lost moisture and started to dry up due to long-term action are naturally easily devoured by fire. Arthur calculated the time and only used the fire attack in one go after seeing that the branches and leaves of the tree demons had become dry.
!
Not only that. The King of Knights threw three more flame crystal guns in succession, igniting the locusts flying in the air. These locusts that were on fire and went crazy became even crazier, and kept pounced on Fernandez, killing the red-coated man.
The bishop's crimson robes were also ablaze.
Fernandez screamed and struggled, trying to extinguish the flames on his body, but he did not realize that he was already in a sea of fire, and even the dryad under his feet had been violently burned.
"Damn it! I'm going to bury you with you------!" the guy roared. A dozen fiercely burning dryads pressed towards Arthur, and the high heat forced the King of Knights to the edge of the beach. He could do it
All he wanted to do was escape to the sea, but at a glance he knew it was a death trap. There were swarms of fish in the sea, which should be the piranhas that almost ate Arthur before!
Arthur smiled and shot a crystal gun with his backhand, creating ice floes on the water. He ran over in a few steps, stepped on the ice floes, jumped up, and landed on the boat lightly and accurately. Piranhas must also act according to their nature.
, they had nothing to do with Arthur on the boat!
The dryads rushed towards Arthur frantically, thinking that with this swoop they could catch the King of Knights who was about to retreat in time!
"Goodbye!" Arthur grabbed the edge of the boat with one hand, raised the other hand, and activated the alchemy glove. A powerful shock wave hit forward, and its reaction force pushed Arthur's boat back to speed up, and five people rushed out in an instant.
Code! His alchemy gloves can still fire continuously. With the advancement of several consecutive shock waves, he has been far away from the beach. The flying attacks of the dryads have no effect on Arthur. They just plunge into the water!
it's over.
Wait, right? ------Where is Fernandez?
The dryad the guy was riding also plunged into the water, so he also used the sea water to extinguish the fire on his body! Now he is in the water, seemingly waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack Arthur.
"Why are you looking for death?" Arthur sighed, cut his palm and dripped his own blood, attracting a group of piranhas. The moment he saw the piranhas approaching, he shot a necromancy crystal gun into the water and was hit.
The piranha immediately turned into Arthur's puppet!
Fernandez did not expect Arthur to make this move. Before he could even surface, the undead piranhas had already caught up with him!
"Wait, uh, uh uh uh uh uh! Help! Help me!" In the distance, a burnt figure that had just surfaced was struggling for life. However, it was already too late, swarms of piranhas had already surrounded it.
Fernandez was killed and turned into a mass of bones within two seconds.
Finally won. Arthur breathed a sigh of relief. When he rowed the boat back to the beach, the battle on the beach came to an end. The out-of-control familiars scattered and fled deep into the forest. They were killed by Arthur's dead spirit.
The army of corpses controlled by magic stopped moving and stood there stupidly. They all had fragments of crystallized guns embedded in their bodies. As long as the magic power in these fragments has not been exhausted, the undead warriors will not
Will stop moving. If Arthur understands correctly, "Abyss Grimoire: Word of Vision" gave Arthur the highest level of necromancy. The consumption of magic power when manipulating the undead is minimal, so these undead can at least last
Action all day long.
Although he knew clearly that it was an army under his control, looking at the human and animal corpses standing in groups there still made him feel very frightened.
Arthur looked back and saw that the undead piranhas had found the Grimoire of the Abyss: Untold Poems held by Fernandez. A bunch of fish swam ashore carrying the strange-looking metal book and sent it to Arthur.
Come forward.
The King of Knights swallowed his saliva, walked forward and wrapped the book with cloth, picked it up and put it into his luggage. "The Untold Psalms" seems to be a very powerful magic book, and with its power, it can be manipulated
Thousands of animals serve as familiars, and trees can even be awakened to serve as dryads, which is equivalent to a huge army.
If used in conjunction with "Abyss Grimoire: Mantra of Visions", Arthur can control not only the living, but also the dead. This power will make him extremely invincible.
But if you want to possess the power of "Abyss Grimoire: Untold Poems", you must go to the Abyss Library again, negotiate with Mobius Maiyu, and exchange some [price] for [wisdom]. That guy Mobius
He likes to buy and sell by force, and just now he took Arthur's three years of memory as a "price" without permission. If he touches "The Untold Psalms" again this time, I don't know what Mobius will take away from him.
Arthur shuddered. He didn't lack strength to that extent, so he didn't plan to touch "The Untold Psalms" for the time being. Naturally, the book had to be hidden. If such a dangerous magic book fell into the wrong hands,
, the world will be in trouble - probably there will be another dark wizard who releases the plague out of thin air.
However, Fernandez just used familiars (rats) carrying the Black Death to spread the Black Death everywhere. If you guessed correctly, the Black Death has another source. Give the "Black Death" to Fernandez and let that guy go everywhere
There are other people spreading the plague.
Who the culprit is, Arthur hasn't had time to ask - and he won't have the chance to ask. The Fernandez he saw is already a madman, who has been eroded by the abyss and lost most of his sanity. Anyway, go to the church first.
Let's go to the "Inn" and see if we can find old Zuster who was taken as a hostage. The old vampire hunter may have more clues.
Arthur, who was thinking like this, passed through the army of undead warriors and walked up the mountain. Unexpectedly, the undead warriors transformed from human corpses actually followed him. There were at least ten undead warriors following him.
"Okay, don't come in." Because he felt very uncomfortable, Arthur couldn't help but ordered as he advanced into the inn. The undead warriors then stood blankly at the door.
The King of Knights shuddered and walked into the deserted inn hall. The place was dark and quiet, as if it was the tranquility before the war. He didn't even spend any effort to follow the blood stains on the ground to find the entrance to a basement. Knowing that it was a trap,
But he could only go and find out. Because old Zuster might be locked up in the basement.
"Is there anyone?" Arthur walked into the basement holding a holy sword and surrounded by four winged angel knights and golems.
"Hmm?" An old man hummed deep in the dungeon: "Who is it?"
"Zuster!" Arthur shouted from a distance: "I'm here to save you! Are you okay?"
"Save me?" Old Zuster groaned: "Is it Lord Aslan? Wait! Don't come here! This is a trap!"
Pound! It's too late. The iron door of the dungeon behind Arthur was slammed shut and locked tightly. The entire dungeon was shrouded in darkness, and began to be filled with the breath of deep cold.
"It's finally here." A voice said: "To be able to defeat Fernandez, the Sage in the Stone is really powerful."
"Stop talking nonsense and show your true colors, coward!" the King of Knights said coldly.
"Of course," a slender shadow wearing a black robe appeared deep in the dungeon and stood in front of Old Zuster.
The pale vampire bowed to King Arthur and said, "Fifth True Ancestor, [Plague King] Valendrin, see King of Knights."
"What a blessing------" Arthur suddenly fired a sacred crystal gun in the middle of saying it, and before the other party could react, he used the crystal gun to penetrate the vampire's chest!
