The knight in the abyss

Chapter 848 Unbelievable
In Lancelot's arsenal, in terms of sharpness, Strike of the Starry Sky is firmly on the championship throne, followed by Zariel's Sword, and Frost Slash under the blessing of Qingyuan Sword Art can only rank third, and it is not as good as the top two. There is still a big gap.

However, Liches are not known for their sturdy armor or tyrannical vitality. No matter which weapon it is, it is enough to deal with this kind of enemy. The premise is of course that it can touch its body, and that is Lance Why would Luo take the risk? With such a long distance, Peyton Derek couldn't think of anything that could pose a threat to his body. Even if there was, it wouldn't be too late to respond.

In fact, the lich still has some protective spells and magic items, but because Lancelow released the power of the forbidden stone, all the "preventive measures" of the lich lost their effect (while Lancelow's own transformation state was not disarmed, as that is not a magical effect).

Bet right.When the tip of the sword sank into the lich's shriveled face like a zombie, Lancelot thought so.

But at this moment, what he thought was impossible happened, happened.Lancelot clearly saw that before the long sword smashed through the skull, three magical auras of different colors lit up on the Lich's body at the same time.The first aura injected a large amount of negative energy into the lich, which is life force for undead creatures; the second aura of magic created a translucent protective shield around the lich's body, with the general orchid Si Luo's long sword 'squeezed' out; the third magical aura opened a portal of just the right size behind the lich, like a big mouth that appeared out of thin air, swallowing Peyton Derek in one gulp. And immediately disappeared without a trace.

Lancelow looked at the position where the enemy was just now in disbelief, it was now empty.There are too many whys in his heart to ask, the Lich absolutely did not make any action to cast spells, even if the other party has the ability to silently cast spells like Tijana, it is impossible to cast three spells with high ranks at the same time; moreover The important thing is that he had activated the Stone of Forbidden Demon, and the Lich was definitely within the range of the magic net's failure just now, but why could he still cast spells and escape from a dead end that was completely inevitable?

Unfortunately, no matter how hard it is to accept, facts are facts.The sudden roar pulled Lancelow's thoughts back to reality, and now he had to face the consequences of failure - he was in the center of an army of over ten thousand undead, and because their masters were still alive in a corner , so these undead were not destroyed, but still stood intact.

From the perspective of the companions on the city wall, the corpses in the distance boiled like hot oil splashed with water droplets, and all the undead soldiers moved almost at the same time, throwing themselves at the tall Barlow flame demon desperately. go.

The flames and sword light exploded fiercely, and Lancelot, like a lion besieged by hyenas, instantly tore all the enemies within fifteen feet around him to pieces.But there are too many enemies around him, and those undead soldiers who have no self-awareness don't know what fear is at all.Baloo's body seemed to be some kind of powerful magnet, while those skeletons and zombies were countless broken metal fragments, which instantly covered Balrog's body.

Although they are burned to a cloud of ashes in a few breaths, more of their kind will be on their backs before then.If Lancelot is a real Ballow, or at least can maintain the form of Ballow for a long time, then he still has a chance to escape from this storm.

Unfortunately, neither of the above two assumptions holds true.

"We have to help him!"

Brutal yelled, but it wasn't a proposal.As he spoke, the young dwarf leaped from the edge of the wall—the top of the wall was less than ten feet above the ground due to the earthquake spell.Karaline and Aramiel just exchanged a look, and jumped down together, while Barend and Tanya behind them hesitated a little, but quickly made a decision, and turned to their companions. The figure chased after him.

Not only them, those ravens that had just flown into the sky also landed one after another, transformed back into human form, and charged towards the sea of ​​undead together with their running partners.

The distance between the place where Lancelot was besieged and the city wall was actually only about [-] feet. If it was on flat ground, even ordinary people could cross this distance in half a minute. The battlefield was covered with corpses that could trip people up if they didn't pay attention, and when they approached, the undead creatures that were originally attracted by the Barlow demon also attacked them.

Fierce fighting broke out again, this time with the living gaining the upper hand.Brutal, Aramir, and Tanya were at the forefront like the tips of spears, constantly tearing apart the enemies in front, while the rest followed closely behind them, supporting the breach made by the forwards.Yet, despite their local superiority, the advance was inevitably slowed, and Lancelot was running out of time.

When the distance between the two sides was only the last two hundred feet, a sudden explosion declared the failure of the rescue operation.

The flash reached everyone's senses one step earlier than the loud noise, and everything in the world seemed to lose its color in an instant, leaving only pure white light and black shadows; and after the flash, the color of the flame was restored first - an orange-red The fireball rose slowly under the lift of the smoke column, like a smoke ring spit out by a dwarf miner, followed by a deafening loud noise and a shock wave that knocked everyone to the ground.

It took about ten seconds before someone staggered up from the ground.Apart from severe dizziness and bruises from an accidental fall, no one suffered any serious injuries.

But if it goes a little further, I am afraid the result will be completely different.

On the ground ahead, a deep pit with a radius of more than sixty feet appeared. The diffuse gunpowder smoke blocked the sight of onlookers, but within thirty feet from the edge of the deep pit, not even a complete corpse could be seen on the ground. No, the bodies of skeletons and zombies were completely shattered by the shock wave of the explosion on the spot. One can imagine what kind of scene it would be in the central area of ​​the explosion.

"No! No! No!!!!!!"

Brutal let out a desperate, piercing cry, repeating the same word over and over again.However, his words failed to change the reality. On the contrary, they awakened the surrounding skeletons and zombies that were also overturned to the ground. on living people.

"It's time for us to leave." Soveris' voice sounded behind Bruto, and a hand covered in gunpowder smoke and blood was placed on the dwarf's shoulder, "Let's go, don't forget the promise of the Lord of the Dead, He will surely resurrect our friend..."
