Chapter 376 Black Knight Lord

No matter in every sense, the bone servant is worthy of its cannon fodder status.In addition to being sufficient in number and cheap to summon, after consuming the enemy's physical strength, they can also pollute the earth with their own remains.

Although the humans' expulsion of evil enchantment has cleared the death aura on the line of defense, but outside this line of defense, a huge amount of death aura has turned this place into a temporary death zone.Like the dark sky, this strategic-level large-scale magic can also enhance the combat effectiveness of the undead army, increasing all necromancer spells in this area.

The Death Cult finally showed its true strength in the second attack, and directly summoned an organized skeleton army from the Death Plane.After three thousand real skeleton warriors joined the battle, they immediately put heavy pressure on the human defense line.

With the strength of the Death Cultist under Lich Klein's command, it is not easy to directly summon an undead army of this size, but with the increase in the death area, this goal can still be achieved after all.However, even if they are successfully summoned to the world, it will also require a huge amount of spiritual power to manipulate these three thousand skeleton warriors to attack in an organized manner.

Many of the Cultists of the Curse were sweating like dead dogs, but their opponents, the priests of the Gods' sect who stood on the human side, were also suffering.In order to maintain this not-so-reliable front, they had to do their best.

The second attack lasted for a full four hours. According to the time, it should have been early in the morning, but there was still no light in the sky.The entire army of [-] skeleton warriors was annihilated, and nearly [-] Curse Cultists were exhausted and died of vomiting blood.But the human side also suffered heavy losses, with nearly a thousand casualties in the defenders. El invested almost all of his reserve troops, and even his elite lineage suffered losses.

The more serious problem is that the priests of the sect of the gods under him have overdrawn all their divine power, and have completely become useless—and this is exactly what the Lich Klein wants to achieve.

"I can feel that the aura of divine power on the other side has disappeared. It seems that they have indeed run out of ammunition and food." Klein withdrew his gaze from the distance, with a smile of conspiracy on his face: "They thought they could still see today. The sun rises in the sky, but that's wishful thinking. Stallon, it's time for your knights to go."

The black knight lord watched the human defense line sinking like water. Hearing what the Lich said, he couldn't help but said: "Their defense line has not collapsed yet, and there must be a hidden card. And until now, I haven't seen them yet. cavalry."

"You're right, I believe they still have some reservations, but when the priests of the god sects have exhausted their divine power, how can conventional force in the world stop the footsteps of death?" Klein looked at the black knight The lord, with a meaningful look in his eyes, said with a strange laugh: "We have already lost their wings. Could it be that at this time you are overwhelmed by the courage of those humans and dare not move forward?"

"I don't have that intention." Stallon said after a moment of silence and bowed his head.Because he was wearing a steel visor, no one could see the expression on his face, but the slightly flickering soul fire in his eyes revealed his emotions.

The Lord of the Black Knights knew very well that Klein had no good intentions for him.In the past, the Shadow Legion was the most elite and loyal armed force of the Church of the Damned, but that force has disappeared into history.The new generation of Shadow Legion comes from the gift of the Lord of Death. As the commander, Stallon nominally obeys the order of the Sect of the Damned, but in fact he is a diehard loyalist of the Lord of Death.

No one likes subordinates who are disobedient and hold great power, and the Cult of the Damned is the same.Stallon was regarded as a thorn in the side of the Cursed Sect, but feared by the majesty of the Lord of Death, they did not dare to attack this army blatantly. They could only frame it without a trace like the Lich Klein is doing now.

Ugly and filthy politics... Stallon thought to himself, mortal humans are always afraid of death like snakes and scorpions, lest they avoid it, but they never realize that it is born in the dark corners of their hearts. Those filth and filth are far more filthy and uglier than death.

The current human army can be said to be a cornered beast, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that they still have something to rely on. Although they may not be able to turn the tide of the battle, it may not be too difficult to get a group of unlucky ghosts to be buried with them.Although Stallon is already an undead, he has no interest in being such an unlucky ghost and dying again.

However, since he had to obey the leadership of the Cursed Sect in name, he could only follow orders at this time.

It is necessary to be careful to guard against the enemy's counterattack cards, but also to always pay attention to the cold arrows of his own people behind him. Stallon has no idea how to grasp this measure, but he can't show it on the surface.As a fighter, sometimes thinking too much may not be a good thing.

"Lord Klein, there are many silver-level powerhouses on the other side, and I hope to get some help." The black knight lord pondered for a moment, then whispered to Klein.

In all fairness, his request is not too much. The strength of silver rank powerhouses lies in their ability to dominate the battle situation. So far, there have been two silver rank powerhouses on the opposite side, and this does not include that Kemal The offspring of the family.With Stallon alone, it is unlikely that he can completely defeat the opponent.

It is impossible for the Death Cult to break through this line of defense if they cannot kill the opponent's silver-ranked powerhouse.

"Don't worry, those self-righteous so-called strong men will be left to me to deal with. I think those human soldiers are exhausted. As long as you break through their defense line, they will definitely collapse without fighting." Klein is full of confidence Said calmly, looking at the confident expression on his face, it seems that he has forgotten the embarrassment when he was attacked just now.

Stallon nodded, wisely not asking questions.Since he said that he was prepared, as a subordinate, he should carry out the order unconditionally.He didn't believe in the lich's nonsense, but he believed that the fellow wouldn't dare to slack in public.

The Lord of Death is not a benevolent deity.

The chest-thinning horn sounded from the darkness. It sounded like the wailing of a drowning man, obviously not from the human side.Not long after closing his eyes, the guarding soldier suddenly shuddered and struggled to get up from the ground.

These southern soldiers have persisted in fighting all night, which has exceeded El's psychological expectations.Due to being too tired, many of them didn't have time to finish their breakfast during the break just now, and fell asleep with bread in their mouths.

Now they heard the ominous sound of the horn again, and the hearts of the soldiers who woke up were icy cold.They tried to escape, but found sadly that they had lost the strength to do so.

The sun should have risen, but the sky is still shrouded in darkness, and only a little clear visibility can make people feel the arrival of day.It's a pity that this kind of visibility is worse than none. Soldiers with good eyesight have already seen the movement of the black knight in the distance, and the waves in the endless wheat fields are violently undulating. It is obvious that a troop is advancing rapidly.

The black knights lined up neatly, holding spears and walking side by side.Although there were less than 20 people, the momentum of gathering together was suffocating.Hundreds of ghouls followed behind them, moving swiftly between the ravines in the wheat fields.The great lich who manipulated the gargoyle followed behind the team unhurriedly, the staff in his hand shone with magical aura.

This is the Shadow Legion, the real main force of the Death Order.

"They're just playing cat and mouse, waiting for us to run out of energy..." Ron sighed and sat down slowly.No matter how glorious energy he had when he was young, he is just an old man now, and being able to follow El on the defensive line for a night is his limit.

"General El, take your troops and leave. As long as you are still alive, there will always be hope of revenge, but if you die here, you will really have nothing." Ron coughed twice , leaning on his crutches and smiled wryly at El.

Although there were some complaints about El's approach, Ron knew in his heart that at that time they had no other choice. Human beings were ultimately the weaker side, and it was just the difference between early death and late death.

Ron never expected that these improvised southern soldiers would win, but after going through this battle, the remnant army did not disappoint.As long as they can survive and train a little later, they can become real fighters.

These young people are the future of the country and they should not waste their lives in this pointless place.

Ron wanted to beg El, hoping that he could stay sane and not be impulsive and die here with the Sect of the Damned.But when El raised his head, what he saw in El's eyes was a light that frightened him.

"After waiting for so long, the dinner is finally on the table." El stood up with a smile, stretched his arms and stretched his body.His muscles tensed suddenly, and there was a sound of joint friction in his body.

There were seven or eight broken thick wooden sticks piled up under his feet, and the palms of his hands were covered with bloody wounds, but when he opened his palms, these wounds healed quickly.

"Mr. Ron, do you think I'm just a brave and foolhardy warrior?" El stared at the Shadow Legion that was approaching quickly, and suddenly asked Ron.

"My lord general, it's beyond my imagination that you can do what you're doing now. But with all due respect, it's not wise to carry on." Ron said with a wry smile.

"If even you think so, it would be great." El pouted, pulled out the wind marks on his waist, took a deep breath, and suddenly smiled: "Hunting Corps! Attack!"

The colorful gem lights are competing to bloom on the defense line in an instant!
