Summoning the Holy Sword

"Click."

Looking at the crystal ball in front of him, Duck frowned in surprise. He stared blankly at the crystal ball in front of him, as if he couldn't believe everything he saw, but he couldn't ignore it. The clarity of it even made him find no excuse at all.

Vulture lost?

Duck is unwilling to believe this fact, but it is a fact. As Rhodes expected, there are always some means by which undead can determine each other's life and death. Now, the vulture's life stone is broken and broken in his eyelids, which makes Duck feel a little anxiety-and unprecedented fear.

This is very rare for undead creatures, but at this moment, Duck is truly frightened. Because this is a big trouble for Dak, now this poor necromancer has even started to tremble a little, just think of the adult who knew that he had lost the bone list, and even returned If the vultures are killed, then their good will come to an end.

It's no wonder that Duck will be so nervous, after all, this task is a very heavy courage for him. Within the Dragon Kingdom of the Night, the four major families have been competing with each other for a long time. With the appearance of the new successor of the Dark Dragon Soul, the Dragon Kingdom of the Night is undergoing unprecedented changes. The struggle for power and power is what is happening in this country.

Duck is a member of the Barend family of the "Soul Chaser" in the four major families of the Dragon Kingdom of the Night. This family is the pillar of the Dragon Kingdom of the Night. Most of the members in the family are Necromancer and Lich. As well as death knights. The Ballende family was once the head of the four major families of the Dragon Kingdom of the night, but now their status is somewhat loose. Although it has not reached a precarious position, it is no longer as reliable as before.

The current Barend family is facing internal and external problems. Within the four major families, they want to replace them, and the "Countess of Blood" and "Angel of Fallen" who have won the title of the first family have always been watching. The weak "Master" family this time did not know where to be seen by the Dark Dragon, and suddenly emerged, becoming the most powerful rival of the "Soul Chaser" family. And this is just an internal struggle among the four major families. If you look outward, there are still many emerging forces that are not afraid of tigers in newborn calves, and they are delusional about pulling this powerful first family off and replacing them.

In this case, Barend, the "soul chaser," naturally did not capture it. The Barend family was able to maintain their position within the Dragon Kingdom of the Night by relying on strong history, loyalty, and merit --- That's right, merit is the root of the Ballund family. After all, in a kingdom of death, the death knight, the Lich, and the Necromancer are counted as the main force of the battle, and because of this, they can master the foundation of the Dragon Kingdom of the Night. Unlike those vampires who hide in the night, except for intelligence and assassination work, the group of guys are useless. The humans led by "Master" Garcia have the largest number of supporters in the Dragon Kingdom of the Night, but those who are vulnerable cannot fight like the undead legion. They may be able to bring dynamism to the empire, but they will develop lastingly. As for the "fallen angels", it is impossible for a group of betrayal betrayers to deceive into the atmosphere.

Once upon a time, the Ballund family was so glorious, but now they must also fight to show their abilities to the new emperor.

It was also in this context that Duck was sent here in order to expect him to make a contribution here and become a cornerstone of the rise of the Barende family. But now, Duck feels that this wonderful future is getting farther and farther away from himself.

You know, because of the sensitive identity of the Principality of Muen, there has been a special person here for a long time. And this time, in order to achieve the purpose, the Barende family even carried out some means, which only reluctantly inserted Duck himself into this place. All he had to do was accept the work of his predecessors, continue to develop eyeliners in the Principality of Munn, and then obtain intelligence. Of course, the most important thing is not to let people in the Principality of Munn discover that in a country ruled by angels, necromancers are more than just unwelcome.

Duck has always been very cautious, and frankly, his strength is not weak, and he can sit in this position in a country based on strength. Duck's own strength should not be underestimated. He and Like a vulture, he has master-level power, and is also a Necromancer who stepped into the inner ring. Within the Barend family, Duck is still a very loyal "genius" character, and it is also because of his care and caution Finally, the Ballund family sent him here.

However, a spell-casting genius does not mean that he also has a political mind. Duck can reach the master level in decades. Those difficult and obscure necromancy spells are as simple as a subject for him. However, he didn't know much about this work. In many cases, experience can be used to make up for. However, some things are not so simple.

As if this time it was in conflict with his own eyeliner. In the words of the present, Duck is a typical IQ with high EQ and no understanding of other people's minds. Not to mention, it hasn't been long before he left the Dragon Kingdom of the night. For Duck, those fragile beasts are just "cheesy bugs" that are not worthy of their own attention. They just need to do what they want like dogs.

Because of this, after Duck found that he had captured such a valuable goal as the daughter of the lord of the eagle city, he decisively abandoned the unlucky eyeliner and tried to convert Natasha into his heartfelt subordinates. --- For Duck, a daughter of the city owner is obviously more valuable than an ordinary officer general, and he has no interest in the idea of ​​the guy who was abandoned by him, it is just a bug. Now that you have found a more expensive bug than it, then you just need to throw it away. Why care what it thinks?

But Duck didn't expect that it was this bug that bit him hard. This is no wonder, after all, the other party is just an ordinary human, his life is limited, in order to obtain unlimited life, even if it is false, he betrayed his soul, and now he finds that his choice has not brought him When he wants the result, naturally he will not be so willing to give up.

So while he was conducting the ceremony, he led his subordinates to launch a raid on Duck, and finally forced Duck to interrupt the ceremony to deal with this nasty bastard, although he successfully stopped the idiot's idiot. But Duck didn't expect that in the end, his efforts would fall short. The woman ran away! !! !!

This is an absolutely unacceptable failure for Dak, but fortunately, as a Necromancer, he has lost the action that will be stunned by anger, so Dak first controlled that with a necromancy spell. Trying to betray his general, he ordered his men to catch Natasha and Grundi, and he took the opportunity to send vultures and others from another place, avoiding everyone's eyes and trying to regain the bones.

For Duck, this plan should be foolproof, but now he finds that his plan has completely failed! !!

Not only did those stupid humans fail to achieve their missions, but even the vultures led the elite troops without a lifetime—when he wanted to hit here, Duck's head immediately became big. The identity of the vulture is not simple. He is one of the dead knights in the Balende family who is highly valued and praised. In fact, the Barendt family also knows that Duck lacks experience, so he sent the vulture to assist him and expected him. Be able to stand alone.

But now ... the list of white bones was taken away, the vultures were killed, and even the whole elite was killed, which made Duck a bit frightened. The two people had absolutely no such strength, otherwise they would not have to escape at all. But why is this happening?

Who did they meet?

Dak knows nothing about this. After all, Ming Shi can only respond to life and death, but can't transmit the situation at the time. This also makes Dak a little panic. Has his action been detected by the Duchy of Muen? If so, under the siege of those war angels, his own son would be sad!

With such an idea, Dak was quite entangled at the moment, although, logically, he should now decisively attack, recapture the bone-bone list, and then quickly leave this area of ​​right and wrong. However, the deep inside of Dak is quite complicated now, because he knows that even if he regains the bones list, then he will inevitably die if he returns to the family. After all, his negligence caused the death of the vulture, which is very Obviously, the death knights in the family will be dissatisfied with himself. Although he is a genius necromancer, but ... in the face of this situation, even a genius can not keep him.

"Damn !!"

Thinking of this, Duck banged on the table with a fist, he bit his teeth, his brain was blank, and now Duck is not thinking about how to build a career for the family ......... Let's go through the difficulties before us.

Thinking of this, Duck raised his head with a dark face, he stared at the crystal ball fragment in front of his eyes. After a moment, the necromancer gritted his teeth, and then he waved. Soon, the wind blew past, and the figure of the necromancer disappeared completely in this violent wind.

At this time, Rhodes and others came all the way to Hobbit Village before they finally settled.

This is the only inhabited place in the Baihe Valley. It is also a place for many caravans and travelers to rest and rest. This village is different from other places. It is built on the hillside of the river valley, and the river flows down the river. , And their houses are not built of wood like other places. On the contrary, the houses in Hobbit Village are caves dug out in the river valley. These caves are warm in winter and cool in summer, but they are very suitable for people to live in.

It ’s just that the Hobbit village has been a bit deserted recently, and it ’s not yet the peak trade season. Not many people come here, which makes the village, which was originally very busy, relatively calm, but for those who have been there for generations For the villagers, this allowed them to enjoy a rare peace.

But this calmness was quickly broken.

"Well."

The door of the tavern was pushed open rudely, which surprised the owner of the tavern who was lying on the table. He raised his head subconsciously and looked at the door, where he saw five dusty servants standing there. Traveler. They looked a little tired, and looked anxious. And what attracts the boss's attention is that there are several very beautiful girls among them. Standing in front is a person wearing a black aristocratic gown, with flat shoulder-length short hair, which looks rather like a beautiful young girl from the appearance, except that "She" is too male-like. It's also a bit elusive. Not to mention the indifference of the other person's face at the moment, as if it were an ice sculpture, it was hard to look straight.

And the pink ponytail **** the left side of that person was the most leisurely of the crowd. She looked around from time to time, looking left and right, as if she was traveling leisurely. However, her ears and the unsteady tail behind her still revealed her identity, but even so, the beauty of the girl was still unsettling.

And behind the Fox-eared girl is a blonde girl wearing a **** leather armor. Her two big eyes are always turning slowly, giving a feeling of vitality and vigor. But what attracted the eye was not the pretty and lovely face of the blonde girl, but her slender thighs-the beautiful curves were revealed perfectly and immediately attracted the few men in the tavern. Gaze, and even someone looked at the white skin and swallowed involuntarily.

Compared with these three people, the latter two people are much inferior, their clothes are a bit shabby, their faces are flustered, and they even look as if they are fugitives from somewhere.

I have to say that such a combination is really eye-catching, but the boss has reconciled his poor curiosity and sitting here in the business, he already knows whether to ask or not, not to think, since the other party Come to the store, then no matter who they are, they will be treated as guests. Thinking of this, the boss quickly stood up and came to the five men.

"Welcome everyone to 'Harvest Fruit'. What do you need? We have grilled meat, bread, cheese and specialty green rattan jam. If you feel tired, we also have comfortable rooms and bathrooms for you to wash. Fatigue. There are very few customers staying at this time. I can prepare comfortable rooms for you. Of course, I can guarantee that the price is fair ... "

But before the boss's words were finished, Rhode reached out and interrupted the other person.

"Sorry, we're in a hurry, and you can also prepare us dinner. Of course, we don't need to waste time. As for the room, we don't need it. And ..." said here, Rhode paused. He frowned, and then turned his head, sighing helplessly at Annie, who was pulling her horns poorly.

"Twenty loaves of bread and grilled meat."

"Twenty?"

Hearing here, the tavern owner could not help but widen his eyes in surprise. He looked at these five people in surprise, but eventually said nothing, and nodded, and then planned to leave. Just then, Rhodes stopped him again.

"Well, I would like to ask, are there any carriages or horses for hire here? If possible, we want to get on the road as soon as possible. Of course, money is not a problem."

"This one……………"

Hearing this question from Rhodes, the tavern owner couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He thought for a moment, and then replied somewhat helplessly.

"I'm very sorry, this guest. Recently, there are no passenger carriages in our village, only trucks ... I am afraid there is no way ..."

"The truck doesn't matter, I hope you can contact me and we will leave immediately after dinner."

"Okay, I'll get ready."

Although there was some suspicion deep in his heart, the shop owner nodded and quickly turned away. Only then was Rhodes relieved, he glanced silently at the somewhat deserted hotel, and then walked to the table and sat down. At this time, others were relieved.

"Huh ...!"

Annie threw the salute and shield in one hand, and then sat down on the chair with her buttocks. The whole person was lying on the table like a cat, motionless.

"It's so exhausting, Annie has never run so far ..."

Although the other people did not speak, but from their expressions, everyone had similar thoughts.

After a fire wrecked the carriage, Rhode raced non-stop. Although they didn't run all the way to maintain their strength, even the marathon didn't run that way. Both Rhodes and Annie have strong physiques, so there is no problem in hurrying, and Qi Lian is a beast in itself, and naturally it does not care about such wild marches. On the contrary, Grundi and Natasha have never experienced such experience. It is even more difficult to follow Rhodes and others across the mountains, if not considering that there is a Necromancer behind them. At any moment, I am afraid the two men will be tired and paralyzed. And now, there is no last trace of motivation to support them. Like Anne, Natasha and Grandi almost lie on the table.

"Luo, Luo, Mr. Rhodes ......... I think we should rest for a night before leaving ......... This is a village with so many people and militiamen. The Necromancer should not bother us Right ... "

Natasha was so tired she even said that she was unfavorable. Now she even felt that her feet were unconscious, as if two wooden sticks were under her. As a man, Grandi did not ask for mercy, but looking at his complexion, he also knew that this guy had reached the limit.

"No."

Although Natasha's request was reasonable, Rhodes rejected the request mercilessly. This girl doesn't understand the terribleness of Necromancers at all. If she can, Rodney would rather single out with a Necromancer in the middle of the desert, and would definitely not want to face a Necromancer in a densely populated place. Many people are not just obstacles for Necromancers, but their help. If Rhodes and others really spend the night here, then once the Necromancer comes to the door, they will not only face the Necromancer alone, but may even face the villagers who have become dead. Their bodies ......... This is definitely not a good situation for Rhodes.

Of course, Rhodes is also a man. He naturally understands that Natasha and Grandi can no longer walk, but ... "You can rest on the carriage for a while, at least, you don't have to walk for the time being."

"..................... well, Mr. Rhodes."

After hearing Rhodes's words, Natasha and Grandi glanced helplessly and nodded. Although the truck is not as comfortable as a passenger carriage, hard and uncomfortable, but now they can have a place to rest It's already hard to come by, as long as you can stop yourself from walking, no matter what he is ............... When the crowd seized the time to rest, suddenly, the door of the tavern was pushed open again, and then the bustle of noise Several mercenary-dressed men walked in. Obviously, the mercenaries also noticed the Rhodes and his party sitting in the tavern, and immediately hurled them a few whistle. However, Rhodes did not pay attention to the response of these mercenaries, and the animated Anne, who was tired now, did not want to move any more, and naturally did not respond to the mercy of the mercenaries. Instead, Qilian turned around and blinked at them, and this action immediately caused cheers from the mercenaries over there.

But at this time, a quiet voice among these mercenaries suddenly sounded.

"Ok?"

Hearing this voice, the mercenaries who were still excited just closed their mouths obediently, and then they quickly separated a road. Then, a woman wearing a mask came out of it and came to Rhode and others. .

"I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Rhodes."

Then she spoke.
