rune hunter

Chapter 382
The soaring fire on the altar was clearly visible even more than ten kilometers away, and half of the sky was even reddened after the sunset.The fire ignited by thousands of undead remains as fuel can burn for a whole day and night, and a hundred miles away from this hillside are wheat fields that are about to mature. If you are not careful, it will easily lead to an irreparable disaster.

However, El didn't think about controlling the fire at all. Instead, he let Delair and Jessica, a pair of arsonist brother and sister, fueled the flames behind.You must know that the demon construction ability represented by the law of chaos may not be good, but they are all born masters in destroying this aspect.With the concerted efforts of the two brothers and sisters, the entire plain was directly ignited!
The undead army has broken through the defense line built by humans, and the Death Cult is just one of the troops going south.El tried his best to set up such a trap in Bamblore, and almost emptied all his hole cards. Although he gained his reputation, he also exposed the shortcomings of insufficient manpower and weak successors, and it was impossible to continue to hold his ground .

His purpose has never been to defend his home and country, but to show his fangs and make those who follow the exile's buttocks stalk them.I believe that after this battle, the high-level gang of the Cursed Sect should feel pain in the flesh. If the talents of the politicians in their minds have not rotted, what they need to do at this time is definitely not to think about revenge, but to find them as soon as possible. scapegoat.

As for which unlucky ghost will encounter unexpected disasters because of this, El is not a saint, so he can't care so much.

Although the Death Cult was defeated, the Shadow Legion under its command still retained some strength.After the fall of Stallon, the lord of the Black Knight, the rest of the Lich and the Black Knight immediately dispersed, which was completely beyond El's expectations.The main force of the Shadow Legion, the ghouls and gargoyles, can be said to be the fastest-moving unit in the undead sequence. If they want to run, the human side will not be able to catch up without sending out light cavalry.

Although these troops have fled, it also means that they will spread the news of the unfavorable battle here, and the undead troops of other numbers nearby will definitely come to meet them, leaving not enough time for the human troops to retreat.

Anyway, I want to retreat, and now the food in the field can't be harvested, so it's better to set it on fire and burn it. It can not only hinder the pursuit of the undead army, but also completely purify the land and burn all the corpses. Let them not dig out anything - in a sense, this can also be said to be a tactic of fortifying the wall and clearing the field.

Giving the devil brothers and sisters the best use of things like arson. Fearing that the fire would not be big enough, these two guys even used magic to summon a strong wind, blowing the flames around.It is roughly estimated that this fire is enough to burn thousands of square kilometers of fertile plains north of Bamblore to ashes.If those skeletons didn't have the awareness of fire fighting, it would be a lot of fun if they were caught in the fire.

Of course, no matter how the fire turns out, it has nothing to do with El. The temporary defense line he built can be used as both a dam and a firewall. Anyway, he has no worries.As for the north, there are no longer any living people anyway, so who would bother with that carelessness.

Compared with the skeletons behind him, El is more worried about the people around him now.After a series of fierce battles, his team was already full of wounded soldiers.Diana, the only quasi-sword master with the strength of the gold rank, is still in a coma, and Laurana, who exists at the brain level of the army, is unconscious, and now Pallanti has collapsed again inexplicably.If there is no way to solve it as soon as possible, God knows what accidents will happen.

After accepting the gift from the wild walker Siwa, almost all human soldiers have greatly improved their perception ability. Compared with pure physical strength, whether they have perception ability is the most obvious dividing line between black iron and bronze ranks .After this baptism, more than a hundred soldiers in the army were promoted to the bronze rank. The sudden increase in strength caused these soldiers to fall into a crazy excitement that they could not extricate themselves from.

After personally experiencing this kind of magic, many soldiers of the Southern Army began to have different thoughts in their hearts.Compared with those stingy lords who can't even pay a penny, this northern army with a mysterious origin is obviously more attractive.By this time, these southern soldiers who had been forcibly recruited began to have trust and expectations for this army, which was obviously a good start.

But not everyone has benefited greatly, and Pallanti is an obvious exception.After being baptized, she did not increase her strength, but instead vomited blood and fell into a coma and lost consciousness. The priest accompanying the army couldn't see anything wrong with her at all, so she couldn't do anything about it.

In the end, the experienced Ahmed came up with a more reliable inference after careful observation. This little girl may have been promoted to the silver rank after being baptized.Her strength has already reached the level of the bronze peak, and with the help of the white lion inheritance, she can even display the combat effectiveness of the silver level.

But this kind of false combat power is obviously difficult to satisfy the girl's appetite. As a vanguard leader who is always rushing to the front line, her desire for power is far beyond other people's imagination.According to Ahmed's judgment, she may have stepped into the Silver Secret Realm impatiently after her own strength was promoted to Silver.

Although the White Lion family is not as rich as the Beifeng family, it is still a warlord faction with a history of 300 years.As the last inheritor of the family, Pallanti does not need to explore blindly like El. Her ancestors have already planned a flat road for her. Unless she wants to show her personality and be unconventional, the family inheritance alone is enough for her to be stable. promoted to the Silver rank.

Although this road has become smooth, its most basic requirements cannot be changed - if you want to embark on this road, you must at least have enough accumulated strength.Pallanti, who was so impatient, didn't think about this at all, so he rushed in rashly, and he was bound to suffer backlash.

For this situation, outsiders can't help at all, and can only rely on her own will to recover slowly.But El didn't have this free time. He had to solve the problem of the camp full of wounded soldiers now, or else he would face the embarrassing situation where no one was available.

After leading the troops to catch up with the marching exiles, El and Tiana greeted each other in private, and stayed sneakily with a few of their cronies.

The place where they stayed before was also a town, but it was empty now.The news of the undead army going south has spread, and almost all humans who got the news, regardless of nobles and civilians, began to flee to the south.I have to say that the southerners are indeed better than the northerners in this regard, and the speed at which they escape is simply breathtaking.

After nightfall, El found the magic power node near the town, and began to arrange altars again - the main reason why such a suitable magic power node can always be found near the town is because when humans opened up this land, it was Relying on the magic power provided by these magic power nodes, settlements can be built one by one.It's just that after thousands of years of history, these common senses have long been forgotten by ordinary people.

This time, the main people who participated in the sacrificial ceremony were the wounded and sick, including the three beautiful girls in El's hands.As Diana's protector and brother, Simaco originally had reservations about this, but under the current circumstances, it is impossible for him to find a way to heal Diana's injury, so he can only follow El's advice with a fluke mentality. arrange.

To be honest, El didn't have a clue in his mind. The several sacrifices he has performed so far have received completely different responses, with no rules to follow.Even Tiana couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't expect anything to be done.There is an old saying that "whatever is empty cannot be filled".If something goes wrong, and a warm-hearted ancestor pops out to leave some big surprises, these wounded people will kneel down directly in eight or nine out of ten.

Although he knew that there would be such a risk, El didn't tell anyone the truth, and Tiana, who also knew about it, also kept silent about it.Now is not the time to consider risks. The problem is that they have no other way, they can only talk about the fate that they hope for in the dark.

However, he soon felt the deep malice from fate.

This time, the sacrifices were the soul of Stallon, the leader of the black knight, and the soul fragments of Klein, the lich.These high-level undead are usually experts in soul science, but they are restrained by the power of the El rune, which is one of the reasons why they lost so quickly.

Without the existence of the Lich's phylactery, El could even capture the complete Lich's soul.But being able to leave this part of the soul fragment is also a surprise. It may not be so easy for the archbishop to be reborn now.

The souls of the two silver-level powerhouses are absolutely different from the remains of ordinary undead in terms of quality alone, but there is still a certain gap compared to the remains of the puppeteer last time.El didn't expect to get another rune for himself, he just hoped to heal the wounds of his subordinates, and this wish didn't seem too difficult.

However, the reality is always so cruel. After he sincerely prayed and offered sacrifices, the phantom summoned from the altar was still the Feathered Serpent!

"You have a fucking relationship with our human ancestors!" Seeing the reappearance of the feathered snake, El's heart was already half cold. Although the feathered snake god also has the name of a god, this one is not good reputation.If you want it to save people, it's a world-class joke.

Although he knew that he was probably going to play off this time, El still had to maintain a fearful expression on his face.Under the huge phantom of the Feathered Serpent that almost covered the entire sky, he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction.

The souls of Stallon and Klein struggled in the flames for a moment, then turned into a wisp of black smoke and floated into the air.The huge Feathered Serpent God swung its wings, and then gradually disappeared into the air.

There was a wry smile on El's face. Others thought the sacrifice was anticlimactic, but only he knew that he had obtained a new rune.
