The last headhunter

66 Death Knight
taste.

Long-lost. The taste of a living person.

The undead wandering around fell into a frenzy of hunger and thirst when they smelled the complete and lustrous flesh fragrance of Jeska, the boy and Michelle.

Nearly all the undead monsters within a radius of nearly a hundred miles woke up from their sleepy sleep in an instant, and began to rush towards the place where the group of people stayed following the guidance of their instincts.

Thirst for blood, longing for limbs, longing for human flesh.Shred, chew, gnaw.

They greedily sucked the life essence that spewed out along with the blood, and then let out twisted and painful screams.

They become stronger by devouring humans.Their speed will become faster from killing, and their flesh will become tougher from eating.What's more, even the most basic gluttonous monsters will undergo unimaginable and astonishing mutations due to the strong devouring human beings.

This is the power of the undead.While it is extremely difficult to completely smash, it also possesses terrifying evolution and mutation abilities.

Exactly where their power comes from remains a mystery.

But now is not the time to think about that
Ghouls, bats, butchers, mutants, infected wolves, mutants... This land of purgatory is simply a hodgepodge of undead creatures, everything you expect to find.

The destructive impact of the fall of Oan Town on the surrounding towns is expanding, and with the necropolis as nourishment, a large-scale undead army has begun to take shape.

These undead beings born from corpses... are merely the advance troops of this great legion, mere prophecies of the Scourge coming true.The coming of the undead is a curse that is a hundred times more terrifying than any natural disaster, and it is a heart-wrenching blow that will cause a fatal blow to the Luo'an continent.

They will make the world miserable, and it will be difficult to recover even if it takes a thousand years.

When the foul-smelling wind approached the young man, the fear that had once faced Malos surged into his heart again.

But this time, Jie Shika patted the boy on the shoulder lightly.

【It's fine.Sooner or later. It will be all right. 】

he smiled.

[The curse of the undead. Sooner or later, it will completely dissipate. 】

【Stop talking nonsense.A lowly servant of King Halwara.Has your God only taught you how to comfort others?Still think about how to deal with such a large number of undead. 】

De Leago drew out his dagger, squinted his eyes and looked at the slightly dim moon.

[At night, the combat power of the undead will reach its peak, and its combat state will become extremely fierce due to the rage, making it difficult to parry.Confronting it head-on will be pretty tough.So it is better to evacuate as the best policy.】

[Where did your self-confidence go, Kurst?You who can easily kill so many resurrected people should definitely not be so afraid of these undead.You just don't want to do your best and have reservations? 】

【.ignorance. 】

A cloud of ghostly aura filled with black smoke appeared in Yisha's hands, and he glanced at Jie Shika lightly.

[Small-scale battles are okay, but once it involves the use of high-intensity skills, it will consume a lot of divine sense.My Lord Higgs needs to use most of the divine sense, that is, the belief of God in the battle against the traitor, and cannot support too much. 】

[Once the spiritual thoughts are exhausted, we must return to the Sanctuary of the Night and return the bodies and spirits of these believers.]

【Our goal is not to save the world, nor to save anyone.We are just to open up the belief land of the human world.Therefore, we must reduce the consumption of divine sense as much as possible, so we cannot put all our efforts into it. 】

"But these undead men are not threatening you, but me."

The boy interrupted Yisha's indifferent talk, but he sneered.

"I refuse to run away pointlessly. If you don't help me, if you don't give your all, if I die here without a body left, the agreement between you and Lipani will be broken. Higgs' plan will be ruined! Where is there What dark night holy land!"

"I want to see how you will bear this fault! It is not too much to peel and cramp countless times!"

"The order to protect the headhunter, the promise of King Higgs, have you forgotten!"

The boy roared hysterically.

When disgust overwhelms fear, there is no need to hide the resentment in the heart.

The boy was very important to these Kursters, the foundation upon which the alliance was built, and without him there would be no loyalty to Lipani!
So they must not sit idly by.Absolutely can't save a little combat power!

I am a headhunter so you must follow my orders and fight for me!

This is the only kindness fate has left for headhunters.

------

There was a brief silence.

Although the young man who had calmed down a little bit still hesitated about his anger just now, it was obvious that the angry accusation just now played a very good role.

De Leago's slightly dazed gaze is the best proof.

At that moment, he seemed to feel something.Certain, awe from the depths of the soul.

In ancient times, Luo'an Continent was also known as "Iss Continent", meaning a land of disaster.Natural disasters and man-made disasters continue, the undead are rampant in the world, and the Dragon City is caught in a sea of ​​flames.

Headhunters emerged from that environment.Without any special abilities of their own, they rely on leading the heroes to save the world step by step.

And Riel, the great headhunting prophet. It is his strong leadership and courage that can deter and unite these dazzling heroes.If it wasn't for Riel, then the world would have been completely occupied by the undead, and there would be no more dawn.

Today's young man has lost his childishness, and has become courageous in the difficult and difficult struggles, showing his sharpness, and has some shadows of Ruier.

That's why he was able to say what he just said.Only his unyielding and tenacious soul could cry out such an earth-shattering roar.

Maybe this young man can really inherit Reel's mantle.

At that time, what will King Higgs do?
"Fight the enemy with all your strength, Kursters. Put away your little fluffy intestines."

Facing the three silent Kursters, Michelle, who had been silent all the time, tapped his staff.The slightly squinted eyes finally opened a little at this moment.

"This headhunter is your leader, and it is also the basis for all your plans. Only by serving him can your king have the possibility of accepting faith."

"The prophecy has made everything clear. Let the development of all these continue to move forward according to the proper track."

No one answered him.He just turned around again.

And the ancient Kurst leaders, once again ignited raging ghost flames, enough to burn their bodies to transparency.

[In this case. 】

Dleagu wrapped the dagger around the purple smoke breathing poisonous mist like a snake, and immediately, his thin body was squeezed and cracked into countless chaotic phantoms, and the separated purple smoke was enlarged enough to Black soul crystals that cover the sky and the sun.

[God bestowed, will continue to chant at this moment. 】

[Please witness the arrival of Huang Quan——]

The black soul crystals soared into the sky amid Dleague's chant, and burst like fireworks, forming small crystals that filled the sky.

These small crystals separated into countless black streamer fragments, and the massive undead emerging from the fragments began to dance in a whirlwind, blowing a huge black tornado gathered by the black gust of wind on the huge Yanan Plain.

The tornado began to absorb and tear apart all nearby life forms indiscriminately. The moment the undead entered it, they were cut into meat by the sharp wind breath like a meat grinder. In an instant, the undead cried and wailed The roaring sound was completely covered by the wind, and the pungent smell of blood was intertwined with the rancid cold wind.

And its adsorption force is no exception even for the boy and his party, tearing everyone trying to pull into it together.Thanks to Jie Shika, who had learned the Holy Light Barrier Technique, he used Neta's Pride to create a dangerous barrier to resist.

This astonishingly destructive tornado in the night strangled the undead army eager for the flesh and blood of the young man in just a few minutes, leaving no bones left.

But just when the young man was astonished, the energy pouring out of the fragments stopped abruptly, and the dark night tornado that lost its soul supply stopped quietly like a still mural, and was cut in half like a collapsed crystal tower in the next second. It turned into nothingness after a short and fast, breath-like cyclone flow.

Everything calmed down again after this moment.The large number of undead legions, no one survived after this rampage, leaving only a few uncut limbs twitching and trembling on the ground.

[My lord Higgs' fetish. Black Soul Crystal. 】

[It can release the residual tornado in the sanctuary of the night, and use the fusion of the undead and the power of the night to construct a deadly vortex like thousands of blades. 】

[Although it takes a lot of divine sense, the damage it causes in a short period of time is extremely significant, enough to help us open the way. 】

Dleagu lovingly caressed the black soul crystal that had been reassembled from fragments, and put it in his bag.Immediately turned around to face the boy.

[I think this is enough to show our sincerity.Young headhunter. We have to admit that you may indeed become a tiny variable in this hopeless world. 】

[So our goal is not to turn you into our puppet, but a cooperation.A cooperation that divides the territory. 】

[We need a place of faith, and you need to purify the infection of the undead in many places.I think it's a win-win deal. 】

"Aren't you stubborn? I thought you always used me as a tool."

[Who is the tool and who is the master? Maybe it's not so clear yet. 】

De Leago smiled, showing a gentle expression of kindness.

【Perhaps we should continue—】

At this time, some majestic dancing in the wind made his nerves suddenly alert.

He suddenly turned around and looked behind him, where the [Residual Breath Tornado] was released.

The broken limbs and shells there are emitting a cold light.

And a male knight in heavy armor and a cross-shaped helmet was leaning down, gently touching those limbs.

[Who is that knight?still--】

"Stop him! Quick!"

The boy immersed in memories finally remembered the true origin of that heavy armored knight.

As early as when he was recruiting heroes in Ao'an Town, he had already seen so many things happened to this knight. After so long, he had already put this matter behind him
But today's familiar feeling has once again brought back that unbearable past.

"Who is he?"

Jeska held Neta's pride tightly, and rushed towards the knight.

"That is."

"Death knight."

In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains shook.

The undead who had been torn apart.
From the abyss of Hades and hell, climb up again.
