The knight in the abyss

Chapter 700 Idelgrand

In front of everyone there was a road paved with stone slabs. From a road sign that fell on the ground, Lancelot deduced that the name of the road was Edel Road.It was the only street in the small town. There were a lot of sundries and freshly killed corpses scattered on the stone pavement, and the burning flames of buildings were reflected in the pool of flowing blood.Several gnoll squads are looting the shops on both sides, while the demons are frantically destroying anything within their vision.Lancelow noticed that a few guys he thought were gnolls were actually mutant cowards, and some other easily recognizable demons also had obvious gnoll characteristics.

At the end of the road hundreds of feet away, there is the most interesting thing in this illusion.It was a statue at least as tall as four human knights, and depicted a blindfolded angel in armor.The angel spread its wings and held a sharp sword in a protective posture, and the companions immediately noticed that the sword in the statue's hand was the one they had just seen in the volcano castle.

"Look around." Lancelot said calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, this place should be some kind of illusion."

After hearing the words, everyone turned their eyes away from the nightmarish scene in front of them, only to notice that there was a layer of thick smoke on the edge of the town, which was obviously not something that would exist in a natural state.At this moment, a stern, cold, ageless female voice suddenly sounded in everyone's hearts:
'This is Edelgran, a small town that was once plagued by the gnoll tribe.During a gnoll attack, a Lathander cleric led the townspeople to his god for help.The Lord of Dawn responded enthusiastically, and he sent the angel Zariel, who easily repelled the attack of the gnolls.However, several generations later, the gnolls came back again, this time with them came the dirty beasts from the bottomless abyss.The town is in danger and needs your help! '

As soon as the female voice ended, the attackers on the street suddenly noticed the human knight and his companions, as if they had been invisible just now.Dozens of jackals were besieging a shop with its doors closed and its roof on fire, but their leader decided that Lancelot and his party were more interesting targets.

The captain of the gnoll was covered in ornaments that were obviously just stolen, and he looked like a monkey performing acrobatics at a country fair.However, its vicious expression and salivating wolf mouth are not very flattering, not to mention that it is pointing a dirty machete at everyone, and giving orders to the minions to attack with a malicious voice .Those gnolls turned their heads in unison, dozens of pairs of cloudy gray eyes suddenly opened wide, and evil, joyful and crazy rays of light shot out from them, and then they rushed towards them like a wild dog that found a wounded prey.

"It seems that if we want to get out of this illusion, we must move our muscles and bones." Lancelow pulled out the hand and half sword behind his back, "Even if everything here is fake, the damage we receive will definitely produce reality. Influenced by everyone, cheer up!"

"it is good!"

The partners responded enthusiastically. They had faced the devil's army directly on the bloody battlefield, and this level of battle could not scare them.Lancelot took the lead, and rushed out facing the enemy without fear, waving the long sword in his hand like a windmill, and easily pushed aside the two crossbow arrows that were shot at him, followed by a swift and violent slash, sending the charged The Gnoll at the front was split in half together with its weapon.

Although the attack was visually stunning, it failed to have any effect on the other enemies.Giggling maniacally, two more jackals leaped over the remains of their companions and thrust their dirty spears at Lancelot.

Lancelot easily took a step to the side, and completely missed the enemy's thrusts. The weapon in his hand took advantage of the trend, and a hyena-like head spun and flew into the air.Another enemy turned his head away because he was staring at Lancelot's figure, and just missed the throwing dwarf and the hammer that killed him.

Before returning the hammer to his hand, Brutal rushed forward with the shield on his back, knocking several enemies to the ground one after another.Compared with Lancelot's approach, the dwarf looked much more embarrassed, and a large amount of gnoll filth was stained on his body, but he had to admit that this fighting style was extremely efficient when dealing with large groups of relatively weak enemies , combined with his dwarf warrior armor full of sharp blades and spikes, the whole person looks like a humanoid meat grinder that ran over the station, leaving only bloody corpses in its path.

On the other side of Lancelot, the white-haired and red-eyed half-elf walked confidently, using her shadow halberd to harvest the lives of the gnoll thugs.As a Cursed Swordsman, her weapon is attached to the power from the Fallen Shadow Realm. A gnoll who was killed by her stood up again in the form of a shadow, but succumbed to the Cursed Swordsman's will and swung his claws to attack its former companion.

On a roof not far away, two Jackals huddled in an area that hadn't caught fire, trying hard to load the crossbow in their hands.Their clumsy claws were clearly not suited for the job, but after a few tries they succeeded.

The Gnoll Sentinel raised his crossbow and aimed at the elf who seemed to be doing nothing at the end of the line, but an iron rod that came out of nowhere smashed the No.1 Gnoll's weapon, and the No.2 Gnoll was Under its influence, the fired arrows deviated far from the target.

The Gnoll didn't realize he had been attacked, but blamed his companion for the mistake.It threw away the weapon in its hand, turned around and pushed its companion to the ground, while letting out a threatening growl.

Another jackal showed a terrified expression, which made him very proud, and he yelled at him several times.The monster monkey girl squatted on the fence next to her, looking at everything in front of her with great interest. Seeing that the wolf man wanted to pick up the crossbow on the ground, she flicked her tail and hit it with a stick. The heavenly spirit cover.

The attack of the crowd was like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. In less than a minute, the last jackal who was still standing also fell down.The house that was still under siege just now creaked open, and a middle-aged man dressed as a shopkeeper with a dark face covered in thick smoke ran out from inside. Obviously, he had been observing the movement outside through the crack of the door.

The man ran up to his companions, saluted hastily, and said eagerly:
"Well-meaning knights, you must be rescuers sent by Zariel. Jessa's prayer was indeed answered! She took most of the townspeople to hide in the church at the end of the road. Go and help her!"
