Mythical Card Master: Start with the Knight

Burrett left the church distraught.

Defending is definitely impossible. There are more than a dozen epic wizards in the Truth Society, and including High Priest Lysa, there are only seven epic wizards in the royal capital.

These epics also have their own agendas. Needless to say, the three epics from the royal family will definitely run away.

"Alas, has the empire fallen to this point?"

Burrett sighed and returned to the carriage. Before the horses could run, a knight came running over quickly on a war horse.

The knight shouted loudly: "Count Burrett, there is something strange happening outside the city. Dark wizards have begun to gather near the city wall."

Burrett's expression changed. He forced himself to calm down and quickly ordered the knight: "Go and notify the church and the major wizard towers and ask them to send priests and wizards to support them. As many as they can come."

After saying that, the man urged the knight in front to drive the carriage and run towards the city wall.

Ten minutes later, the carriage came galloping. Burrett got off the carriage and quickly summoned the knights to climb the city wall.

Looking outside the city, hundreds of dark wizards gathered towards the city wall with strange eyes. The deformed parts of their bodies pulsed and glowed red, like some kind of evil sacrificial blood pattern.

Burrett's eyes were solemn. When all the knights arrived, he commanded: "Fire the arrow."

The muscles in the hands of the surrounding knights were pulsating, the bow strings were tightened, and the arrows were shot out quickly.

Arrows fell all over the sky, and the dark wizard looked up indifferently.

Within the group of dark wizards, an old wizard raised his staff and activated his witchcraft.

A large amount of black mist emerged from the other wizards, and then filled the sky above everyone. When the arrows were shot into the mud, they lost kinetic energy and fell to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Burrett looked at the knight next to him and asked, "Are those wizards here?"

The knight quickly responded: "Two epic wizards have already arrived."

"Over at the church, High Priest Lysa is also on the way with the Holy Girl."

Burrett nodded and continued to watch the actions of the dark wizard below.

What he didn't expect was that the group of dark wizards actually retreated into the wild forest after being attacked.

Before he could figure it out, some chaotic footsteps sounded in the dark night, and he saw dense red lights shining slightly at the end of his field of vision.

Burrett was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed drastically.

He discovered that those dense red lights were all distorted dark creatures!

Although he didn't know how the dark wizard could drive the dark creatures, it was obvious that he had no time to think about it.

Burrett anxiously gave the attack order to the knights, and then looked back at the knights he had brought from the earl's tie.

"Knights, use rune equipment freely!"

Burrett's voice sounded, and the knights nodded and showed their gauntlets.

In fact, these knights are not witch knights, and their meditation skills are not even up to the level of apprentices.

But the rune equipment they carry is loaded with some very simple three-rune witchcraft, which even ordinary knights can barely drive.

The power of a three-rune witchcraft may be a little weak, but if it is released by an entire team of knights at the same time, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, even a small three-rune witchcraft may exert a completely different power.

Under the city wall, the roars of dark creatures came closer and closer, and black mist filled the air.

The feather arrows kept shooting. Under the influence of the knight's huge power, the power of each arrow was astonishingly terrifying. Every second, several dark creatures would be connected with the feather arrows, and the dark creatures fell like wheat being cut. go.

In the first few minutes of the battle, more than a few hundred dark creatures were killed or injured. This number seemed like a lot, but it was insignificant in the entire vast beast tide.

Looking from a distance, the flashing red light has no end in sight.

Fortunately, these dark creatures seem to come from the surrounding wilderness or the border of the Dark Land, not from the depths of the Dark Land.

You must know that the dark creatures in the border are much more terrifying than the dark creatures in the empire, and even epic creatures will appear.

He wasn't afraid of just one or two epic creatures, but if there were hundreds or thousands of them, they wouldn't even be able to resist.

"Roar!!"

The tide of beasts quickly surged under the city wall, and black mist filled the air, blocking the starry sky.

At this time, the knight behind Burrett was also ready.

Under the incomprehensible gazes of some knights, the gauntlets on the hands of these knights from the Earldom of Kutz shimmered, and balls of purple fireballs shot out towards the bottom of the city wall.

boom!

The dense purple fireballs smashed into the beast tide and exploded in an instant.

The dark creatures roared and rolled all over the ground, emitting a burning smell from their bodies.

A few minutes later, thousands of corpses of dark creatures were left under the city wall. The dark creatures stepped on these corpses and continued to climb toward the city wall.

Burrett looked back and saw that the knights' faces turned pale. It was obvious that their spirits had reached the extreme.

Seeing this, he waved his hand and shouted: "Give the rune gauntlet to the knight next to you, quickly."

The knights of Kutz were stunned, and they took off the rune gauntlets and clasped them on the hands of the confused knights.

Seeing that they were still in a daze, Burrett loudly urged: "Use your mental power to trigger it quickly."

When the knights heard this shout, they all came back to their senses and input their spirits into it. Countless purple fireballs fell downwards. Some dark creatures were already wrapped in a ball of flames before they climbed up, and fell with a scream. He got into the beast tide and ignited other dark creatures.

For a time, the beast tide was in chaos, and the knights finally got a chance to breathe.

It's just that Burrett's face was solemn and he didn't relax at all.

He knew that this situation would not last long. Those knights had exhausted their mental power after just releasing a round of witchcraft. If this continued, sooner or later all the knights would be unable to touch the rune equipment.

But apart from using rune equipment, he had no other way to deal with it. He could only urge the knights to give the rune gauntlets to knights who had not used witchcraft and let them trigger the rune gauntlets.

All the time, knights would climb up the city wall, release purple fireballs, and then retreat after exhausting their mental energy.

The knights took turns in the battle, and the situation improved a lot.

This situation lasted for more than ten minutes, and finally the wizards and priests from the royal capital rushed over.

The two epic wizards who arrived were named Emeka Ezugo and Dino Gavric. They were both well-known figures in the royal capital.

Behind them, Isabel helped High Priest Lysa climb onto the city wall.

The two wizards didn't waste any time after climbing onto the city wall. They faced the beast tide and raised their staffs.

Bang!

White light shone out from the city wall. In an instant, the light resounded throughout the battlefield and illuminated the dark wizard hidden in the forest.

The next second, a hole seemed to open in the sky, and a strong wind fell from mid-air.

Buzz! !

The strong wind was like a sharp blade, and a black bear instantly dispersed into blood mist.

The wind blade was bloodthirsty, and the beast tide was instantly defeated, leaving a bloody clearing in the middle of the battlefield.

After seeing this, Burrett couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Beside Burrett, Isabel also stepped forward.

I saw her hands clasped together, and the golden crown on her head bloomed with dazzling light.

The girl's eyes narrowed, and she raised the ball of light in her hands above her head. Then she let go of her hands, and the ball of light floated away into the wild forest.

call out!

A beam of light shot out from the light group, and there was a loud bang. All the dark creatures along the way were turned into charcoal, and a pit was formed on the ground.

The light group was like a floating cannon, harvesting the dark creatures on the field under Isabel's mental control.

Then the light group got closer to the wild forest, and a ray of light shot through.

Sizzle!

Black mist rose, blocking the light beam.

Isabel was stunned. Under her gaze, the black mist surged and swallowed up the light group.

However, these dark wizards did not fight back after being attacked. After taking a look at the city wall, they retreated into the dense forest.

Everyone was stunned when they saw this, and suddenly there was another rushing sound. Everyone looked into the darkness and saw that the dense beast tide appeared again, and the number was even greater than before.

Burrett's face turned ugly, "Damn it, how come these dark wizards suddenly have the ability to control dark creatures."

The epic wizard named Emeka glanced at him, waved his staff and released witchcraft again, "No matter what, let's deal with the beast tide first, otherwise we will all be trapped in the royal capital."

"These beasts have surrounded the entire king's capital, and there are dark wizards outside who are watching..."

Having said this, Emeka shook his head and did not continue, but it was obvious that he was not optimistic about the situation.

At this time, High Priest Lysa said: "Count Burrett, let the knights go down and rest first, we are here."

Burrett nodded heavily and directed the knight to walk down.

The beast tide continued to attack and the battle continued. Several epics took turns releasing witchcraft on the city wall to kill the dark creatures.

It wasn't until dawn that the beast tide finally receded.

Just when everyone wanted to take a breath, a black and dense beast wave suddenly appeared on the horizon.

Isabel and the others could only cheer up and continue to face the beast tide.

One day passed, the beast tide gradually subsided, and there was no sign of continuing to appear, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But in the early morning of the next day, the beast tide swept through again, and there were many more epic creatures inside.

"Damn it!" Burrett's eyes turned red. "These dark wizards obviously want to consume us alive."

As he spoke, he asked the knight next to him: "Has the royal family responded? Why haven't reinforcements come yet?"

The knight hesitated and said: "The royal knights said they had more important tasks to perform and asked me to go back and wait for news."

When Berrett heard this, he couldn't help but cursed: "Damn it, William Sterman, I'll take your head off and use it as a ball."

The wizard who was resting on the side turned a blind eye when he heard Burrett's words and did not object.

After the anger passed, Burrett began to think.

Those dark creatures all have traces of distortion, and dark wizards should control those dark creatures through distortion.

However, these dark creatures should have come from the nearby mountains and forests and the border of the Dark Land. They certainly would not dare to go into the depths of the Dark Land to spread the aberrant plague.

In other words, when the beast tide is almost consumed, it will definitely subside in a few days, and then it will be a good time to break out.

Borrett sighed and looked at High Priest Lysa and the epics.

"Everyone, the royal family is planning to escape. There is no way we can stay here and wait to die."

"When the beast tide decreases, let's start to break out."

Everyone nodded and said nothing.

After Isabel listened silently, she looked at the surging beast tide outside the city wall, then squatted next to High Priest Lysa and closed her eyes tiredly.

Lysa stroked her golden hair and said softly: "Isabel, what's wrong, we will get out successfully."

"Well..." Isabel shook her head, feeling inexplicably depressed, "I just feel empty inside."

The old man smiled and said, "Are you expecting Narender to come?"

Isabel nodded, then immediately shook her head, "I don't want to. I will find him myself. I promised him that I would go to Earl Kutz to find him."

…

field.

The tide of beasts rushed past, and the grass beside the road moved.

Chu Ming and Edel hid behind the dark wizard's base camp and observed from a distance.

In fact, they had arrived near the royal capital half a day ago, but because the beast tide surrounded the royal capital, they could not enter for the time being, so they hid here.

"Ah sneeze!"

Chu Ming couldn't help but sneeze. After hearing the sound, the dark creatures around him did not react and continued to run towards the royal capital.

"Why did you sneeze suddenly?"

Chu Ming rubbed his nose, looking strange.

Next to him, Edel looked nervous and said, "You're scaring me to death."

"Now that the beast tide has surrounded the royal capital, how are we going to get over now?"

Chu Ming couldn't help but glance at him, "Who said we were going in."

"Ah?" Edel looked confused and asked in a low voice: "If we don't go in, what else can we do?"

Chu Ming's eyes flashed with a strange light, "Of course, we will sneak attack on the hometown of these dark wizards and kill the guys who control the beast tide."

"With Isabel and the others in the capital, we should be able to hold on for a while, so we don't need to worry."

"Isn't it too risky?" Edel's face was solemn. "There are more than a dozen epic wizards inside."

Chu Ming sighed and said, "Because of this, the dark wizard would never think that anyone would dare to attack them."

"Be a little more obscene and you might be able to succeed with one strike."

"When the time comes, we will run towards the royal capital and don't look back."

With that said, Chu Mingliang revealed the crystal staff that had been preserved for a long time.

Edel swallowed hard, gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two of them were hiding in a hole in the grass and silently observed the dark wizard's base camp.

Looking from a distance, the black fog floating in the dark wizard's camp seems to be the witchcraft released by an epic wizard.

The black mist covered the camp, and the two could not see clearly what was going on inside. They could only see a faint flash of blood.

Chu Ming touched his chin, "The black mist should be used to prevent attacks, and the blood light should be the key to their ability to control the distorted dark creatures."

"Even if it isn't, the witchcraft that lasts for such a long time must be some sort of secret."

"You have to keep a closer look to avoid making a mistake."

…

Soon, two days passed.

The scale of the beast tide has obviously shrunk a lot, and it is no longer as terrifying as it was a few days ago.

But at this time, bad news also came from the royal capital.

A wizard hurriedly walked up the city wall and came to another epic wizard Dino. He shouted anxiously: "The teacher is not good, the palace is empty, the nobles and the royal knights are gone."

"What?!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Burrett hurriedly asked: "The four city gates have not been opened. Where did they leave from?"

The wizard quickly said: "In the early hours of this morning, someone heard an explosion from the palace. Student, I followed the others to check it out."

"There are no more living people in the palace, and the ground is full of corpses of servants."

"The explosion came from a side hall. When we arrived, the side hall had collapsed."

When Burrett heard this, he immediately figured it out. An angry look appeared on his face, "William Stellman and the others have escaped through the secret passage."

"Not only that, they also blew up the secret passage and cut off our escape route. They want us to delay here."

After hearing the words, everyone opened their mouths, not knowing what to say, and their eyes became darker and darker.

Bert clenched his fists, glanced at everyone, and said, "Get ready to break out."

"If I can survive, I will arrest the Stellman family and beat them up."

After speaking, the man appeased everyone, then looked at the beast tide outside the city wall, and sighed secretly.

It is not easy to break out of the siege of more than a dozen epic wizards. Even if the breakout is successful, there is no telling how many people will die as a result.

But if you don't break out, you'll just have to wait to die here in vain.

"Everyone, please regain your energy first. While the beast tide is reduced, we will break out towards the north gate."

Everyone nodded and began to conserve physical and mental energy, preparing for the final resistance.

…

field.

At this time, it was just dawn, and Chu Ming and Edel were getting closer to the dark wizard's camp.

Edel asked in a low voice: "Why do I feel like these wizards are walking outside?"

Chu Ming was stunned. He looked in the direction Edel was looking. Indeed, seven epic wizards left the camp, hid among the beasts, and walked towards the city wall.

When Edel saw this, he couldn't help but said: "These guys don't want to carry out a sneak attack."

"This is a good opportunity, Edel should prepare."

Chu Ming's mind moved and he took out the crystal staff.

Energy surged inside the crystal staff, which was obviously full of energy.

However, this staff developed cracks after being strengthened with crystal once. He estimated that after using it a few more times, it would be completely scrapped.

But this is not the time to save. Seven of the twelve epic wizards in the dark wizard camp have gone out, but there are still five in the camp. If you want to cause damage under their protection, you must use all your cards.

"Our location is too far, come with me."

Chu Ming put away his staff, waved to Edel, and gradually walked towards the path.

At this time, three dark wizards were passing by holding a large box.

After seeing that there was no one else nearby, he extended his right hand to the three of them.

Evil thoughts invade!

This is a ten-rune witchcraft of the Nightmare class in the all-class set, similar to a psychic attack.

After the witchcraft was released, a manic malice instantly surrounded the three of them.

The dark wizards' faces became distorted, they dropped the boxes one after another, covered their heads, and let out inhuman screams.

However, dark creatures rushed past nearby, quickly covering up the voices of the three people.

When Edel got out of the grass and pulled the three people back, he saw that the three people had their eyes wide open, bleeding from all their orifices, their faces were in pain, and their death was very miserable.

Edel's heart was beating a little. He took off the dark wizard's robe and asked carefully: "Narende, when did you become so... powerful in witchcraft?"

Chu Ming glanced at him and put on his black robe, "Edel, I remember you still have a lot of mental capacity. Remember to learn it when you go back."

Edel nodded sheepishly, put on his black robe, walked out of the grass with Chu Ming with his head lowered, then picked up the box and headed towards the camp.

"What's so heavy?"

Chu Ming frowned slightly, and the witchcraft was activated. Two tree vines came out of his sleeves and helped him support the box.

Hearing this, Edel was also a little curious. He gently crushed a corner of the wooden crate with his fingers, revealing the contents inside.

A faint light shone in the gap between the wooden crates. The two of them were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes widened.
