MTL - Medieval Empire Soldier-Chapter 173 ·black Knight
"咻咻咻~" The garrisoned archers shot down a few more zombies, and the undead creatures swarmed towards the gate. The distance between two or three rough-skinned tomb ghouls and the guards had narrowed, and Lallen immediately Li Duan asked the garrisoned swordsmen to close the gates from both sides, and shouted at the same time: "Adrian! Push them out!"
"Understood!" Adrian pierced the stomach of a ghoul with a long rune sword and cut it in half. The rotten intestines and dirty blood of the tomb ghoul spilled on the ground, dripping with blood. Derian grabbed a shield and rushed forward to push out the influx of zombies.
Laylen had already rushed out of the outpost, intercepting as many corpses as possible. The veteran captain and a few swordsmen also moved forward bravely, beheading the undead creatures that rushed into the outpost, and closed the gate together with Adrian. , while the witch hunters under Eureka were wielding rapiers, pulling the trigger, and spewing out a tongue of flame in the darkness. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Laren raised his legs and kicked a dire wolf that was pounced on him. , and returned to the outpost at the moment when the door was finally closed.
The archers on the wooden wall kept shooting flaming arrows, and the number of corpses far exceeded everyone's imagination.
Fortunately, there are trenches with wooden thorns around the outpost, and the main defense pressure is on the front gate. door.
"What are your people doing? Are all the soldiers on duty at night going to be lazy?" On the wooden fence, Adrian's anger was vented on the veteran captain, and he shouted angrily, and the guards who were still in shock looked at The corpses outside the wall were all timid.
"Things have already happened. Let's not investigate their negligence for the time being. Adrian, take a few people to the stables, the horses will be more dangerous if they are frightened." Laylen walked to the sentry, and the Hammer of Heram was in the dark. Conspicuous.
"Okay!" Adrian glared at the veteran captain and rushed behind the outpost with two eternal knights.
The soldiers garrisoned at the outpost also left the outpost voluntarily and ran to support the defense on the wall.
The lasing guns never stopped, the smoke of black gunpowder diffused in the cold wind of the night, and the zombies fell one after another, barely keeping a short distance from the outpost.
"Eureka, did you find anything?" Lailen stood on the side of the sentry. Unlike before, the group of corpses outside was like a mess of sand, not attacking, but staggering aimlessly.
"There are too many. It is a common phenomenon that zombies appear in the wild. Where the magic wind gathers, the deceased will climb out of the grave, but in that kind of phenomenon, the number will only be between a few and a dozen, which is no longer a part of It’s a common category.” Eureka pointed at the dire wolves with blue fire eyes, “Especially the undead dire wolves, they never act collectively in the wild.”
"You mean that there are necromancers controlling them." Laren heard what Eureka meant, and his eyes swept across the field outside the outpost, but he didn't find anything unexpected.
"The necromancer is well hidden, the wizard who practices undead magic, their body and breath are no different from the dead, and it is not easy to find him." Yurika's tone was very calm: "It is not long before night, and it is still before dawn. For a long time, we couldn't just sit still, we had to lure him out."
"Woooooooooo!!" At this moment, there was some change in the black forest in front of the outpost, and a long whistle sounded from the depths of the forest, startling a flying bird.
A burly crypt ghoul emerged from the black forest. The huge monster was closely followed by more than 50 barren tomb guards. The undead wielded cursed swords, long swords and halberds, and their bodies were covered in rust. Ground armor and bat-winged helmets marched tirelessly in neat strides, their shriveled and withered bodies only skeletons not yet rotting, blue fire burning in their hollow eye sockets.
"Be careful, the necromancer wants to attack the gate directly." While speaking, Eureka raised her hand and fired several shots at the underground ghost in the crypt. Under the action of black powder, the rotten skin was unexpectedly solid, and the powerful lead bullets Only a few bullet marks were left on the body of the crypt evil spirit.
"Rocket salvo, stop it from approaching!" Lallen on the sentry ordered the flustered archers. The archers stretched their bows and set up arrows, ignited the arrows, and as the bowstrings stretched, the feathered arrows drew arcs in mid-air. , shot straight at the crypt demon.
The archer's head is too poor, only one or two feather arrows hit the target, but the arrows can't even shoot through the solid skin of the undead creature, let alone cause effective damage.
"Archers, keep shooting! Everyone else, get ready to fight!" Seeing that the long-range killing didn't work, Laylen folded and jumped off the post, landing firmly behind the gate of the post.
Eternal knights, witch hunters, garrison swordsmen and spearmen with rune swords in their hands, except for the archers with less than ten people, all the rest stood behind the gate of the outpost. The soldiers were holding their guns in the back, and Adrian and the Eternal Knights were not afraid at all, and they were ready to fight.
"That's a crypt demon, can you handle it alone?" Eureka also fell from the post and quickly loaded the ammunition, obviously she had doubts about Laren's strength.
"Comparing a crypt demon and three Chaos God's Chosen Warriors, which one is more difficult to deal with?" Laren asked for no reason, staring calmly at the door in front of him.
"...I hope you can handle it." The witch hunter glanced at him, drew her rapier and stood by Laren's side.
"They're coming!" the archer shouted in panic from the fence.
"Warriors, get ready!" Lallen raised his warhammer, and dazzling eyes lit up around him, covering everyone in the range, "Blessed by the Holy Light!"
"Boom!!" The huge crypt evil spirit broke through the gate of the outpost, his scarlet pupils showed fierce light, and with an unstoppable momentum, he slammed straight into Laylen: "Hoho!!"
"Soul flames!" Lailun released a magical technique, and the golden holy light illuminated the surrounding area. Is it a burly body? All of them seemed to have been scalded by hot coals, emitting black smoke, melting and corroding, and a painful roar sounded: "Aah!"
"Go to hell!" Taking advantage of the opportunity, Laren charged fearlessly on top, the warhammer swept across, he smashed the weak joints of the lower limbs of the crypt demon, and swiftly avoided the swiping claws, the crypt demon was caught by Lallen. A hammer knocked it away, and then three black muzzles appeared on its face. Eureka shouted: "Laylen, watch out for the barren tomb guard, I'll cover you!"
"Okay!" Laren's holy light restrained all impurity, he charged forward, one person withstood the attacks of more than a dozen barren tomb guards, the flames of the exiled soul ignited from him, the closest to Lallen's barren tomb The guard's armor turned black, and the rotten and shriveled corpse was torn apart by the Hlam warhammer in the next second.
"For Sigmar!" Adrian's sharp sword penetrated the chest of a barren tomb guard, he pulled out his long sword, kicked the body of the barren tomb guard with one foot, and the long sword attached to the holy flame caused fatal damage , the barren tomb guard lost control and turned into a dead bone and fell to the ground.
Followed by the Eternal Knights, who wore black dwarven masterwork plate armor and swung their sharp rune swords at the enemy, back to back, resisting the attack of the undead tide with their flesh and blood.
Zombies and skeleton warriors were easily cut down by the eternal knights, and most of the barren tomb guards were intercepted by Laylen and Adrian, and they escaped the encircling net. The rusty machetes and halberds kept fighting with the weapons in the hands of the eternal knights. , but the undead can always be banished.
The attack of the barren tomb guards was withstood. Eureka and several witch hunters swung their rapiers recklessly among the zombies. These weak corpses did not have any protective tools on their bodies, and the blessed rapiers of the witch hunters were easily cut open. Sword marks.
The black magic of the necromancer controlled the corpses and surrounded the outpost. Ulrich noticed Laylen who had gone deep into the corpse. Action, the flames of Lallen's soul purify one after another withered bones, freeing them from the control of the undead black magic: "There is actually a tricky guy in the outpost, and it is impossible to do it without some means."
The reason why Ulrich can survive under the siege for decades is that he never stings with his trump cards, and he can escape every time.
"Listen to my call, my undead slave, the black knight!" Ulrich's ebony staff pointed forward, and a deep, mouthful of incantations spewed out of his mouth, releasing a terrifying hiss.
Evil black magic gathered in the black forest, darkness descended, and black mist filled the place where the necromancers were. Eleven were in heavy black armor, wearing bat-wing helmets, holding lances and shields, and riding armored skeleton warhorses. figure appeared.
On their armors and shields, the family symbols that symbolized their lives almost fell off, and terrifying undead magic lingered on them. The cursed dark winds soaked the bodies of these undead, and the souls of the heroic knights who died in battle were desecrated. Ten A black knight swept through obstacles unhindered and galloped through mud and bushes at full speed.
Eleven black knights are outstanding works collected by necromancers for many years. Each skeleton has sealed the soul of a kingdom knight. Now they are more powerful than before.
At the same time, in the open space in front of the outpost, Adrian kicked the barren tomb guard pierced by a long sword. When he was about to attack the next target, he found that the corpses in front of him were retreating like a tide, and he deliberately avoided it. open a road.
"Lord Lailun, these undead... have escaped?" Adrian still clenched his long sword uneasy, the armor was stained with blood and broken bones, and the soldiers who were stationed were also relieved. Several spearmen no longer maintained the line, and looked around.
"A crypt evil spirit, dozens of barren tomb guards, these are the only things a necromancer of average strength can control. He didn't want more losses, so he chose to retreat." Eureka pulled out the horse and pointed to The black forest in front: "There was some change in the black forest just now, the necromancer should be there, let's get on the horse and chase it!"
"Well, good!" Laylen nodded and replied. The threat posed by zombies and skeleton warriors was extremely small. He also felt that the Necromancer had run out of cards, so he wanted to retreat. Laylen beckoned the eternal knights to mount: "Chase!"
"oh oh!"
The witch hunters and the eternal knights mounted their horses one after another, and the rangers at the outpost also joined them. A rush of hooves from the front alarmed everyone.
Baron Draco, who was ready to pursue, saw the dozen or so black figures, and he immediately shouted: "Black Knight!"
The sudden appearance of the black knight stopped everyone who was trying to chase the necromancer. Lailun knew that the other party had already launched a charge. If he retreated to the outpost at this time, it would only make everyone panic. He immediately shot the horse forward and bore the brunt.
"Bang bang bang!"
“咻咻~~”
The witch hunters who responded in a timely manner quickly lifted their guns and fired. The archers on the fence drew their bows and arrows, and shot at the black knight. The shield soaked in dark undead magic was extremely hard, and ordinary long-range attacks could not penetrate the armor and shield of the black knight. , the buckshot of the witch hunters only hit them with a puddle of black liquid.
"Charge! For Draco!" Adrian raised his arms and shouted, and the Eternal Knights and the four Rangers followed behind Lallen.
The undead warhorses breathe white smoke, tirelessly carry their masters and charge up, the speed of the charge is as terrifying as thunder, and the eternal knights may wish to give in more. In the sound of metal cutting and the neighing of war horses, the eternal knights shouted In the name of Lallen and Sigmar, the fearless charge.
The distance of tens of meters is fleeting.
Laylen's hammer swing bounced off the lance that was pierced in the face. He turned sideways, and the Helam warhammer exuding the power of purification in his hand directly smashed a conspicuous depression from the armor of the black knight beside him. Bones were shattered.
A face-to-face, ferocious collision between lance and lance forced two Eternal Knights and a Ranger to fall from their horses, leaving only five of the eleven black knights left on horseback.
The group of corpses that retreated just now was now surrounded again. The necromancer was deliberately trying to lure them to pursue, but was dragged by the black knight and eventually fell into layers of double-teams.
"These undead have the strength of kingdom knights and are not easy to deal with." Laylen raised the Hammer of Heram in his hand, the power from the twin-tailed comet and the blessing of the white wolf **** of war Yurik surrounded him, his face was like Shen Shui: "You withdraw and leave them to me to solve!"
"My lord?!" The eternal knights wearing kite helmets exclaimed. Adrian's arm was wounded by a rusty blade, and they wanted to continue fighting, but they had to follow Laren's order and turn the horse's head. , carried the wounded on horseback to the rear outpost.
The black knights stayed quietly not far away. Their target, or the target of the necromancer, was only one, and that was Laylen. As for the others, it was dessert after the meal.
By the time Adrian and the others re-entered the outpost, Laylen was already surrounded by a mass, a black knight slapped his horse forward, and came a few steps in front of the young baron, his shriveled, withered voice like the dead from the grave. He opened his mouth to speak: "Brave guy, tell me why you didn't go back with them, that's right, you all end up the same anyway, hehe~~~"
"Well, your nonsense is good, annoying necromancer, when my warhammer smashes your head, you'll know why." Laren said calmly.
"Hehe~~ My black knights will kill you, don't be afraid, you will be one of them." Ulrich laughed, he was very interested in the strength of this arrogant guy: "Say Your name is engraved on your rib."
"The Redeemer Lyren-Wald, Baron Draco, the holder of the title of Hero of the Empire." Lyren didn't want to talk any more nonsense: "You can die."
