Tome of Blood
Chapter 158 -8- Lord Earl... so amazing!
"Undead! A lot of undead!"
"My lord, be careful!"
The extraordinary knights exclaimed, and immediately raised their swords and steel shields to protect Charlotte.
"Roar--!"
Hearing the knights' voices, the undead in the dense forest let out a low growl, rushing towards the crowd like a wave of zombies in a movie.
Fighting broke out in an instant.
The extraordinary knights swung their swords and chopped down the rushing corpses to the ground.
However, the next moment, those living corpses that were cut down by the knights stood up unsteadily again, and continued to charge towards the knights.
"Cut off their heads! Extinguish the flames of their souls!"
The experienced knight leading the team said loudly.
The remaining extraordinary knights immediately changed their attack direction and greeted the head of the living corpse.
One after another, the rotten heads were chopped off by them, and foul-smelling black blood spewed out, while the living corpses that lost their heads shook slightly, fell to the ground and turned into ordinary corpses again.
The strength of these living corpses is not strong.
Although the strength is much higher than that of ordinary people, and they don't know pain, there are almost no advanced practitioners.
As long as they are not attacked by surprise, they are not opponents of supernatural beings at all.
However, the number of living corpses is simply too much.
The dense flames of dead souls lit up in the dense forest, and more and more living corpses rushed out, and the extraordinary knights couldn't kill them at all.
Almost instantly, Charlotte and the others were surrounded.
"Protect the earl! Break out!"
The extraordinary knight who led the team chopped down a living corpse to the ground again, and ordered loudly.
As the only Starry Knight who came out to investigate with the Earl, he rushed to the forefront and had already opened a faint way back to the camp.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind came from his side, and a living corpse that was much faster than other undead rushed towards him.
This advanced living corpse is obviously more intelligent than other living corpses.
It held up the rusty steel sword, leaped up, and unexpectedly displayed its sword skills directly, slashing towards the knight captain's head.
"It's a step-by-step! Captain be careful!"
The extraordinary knights said in amazement.
The captain of the Cavaliers shuddered, and quickly turned back to defend.
However, he had just let go of his strength just now, and he didn't have enough time to regroup his defenses, let alone face the surprise attack of a living corpse that had already advanced.
Barely making a defensive posture, the attack of the living corpse has already fallen.
The knight captain only felt a huge force coming from the tiger's mouth, making his hands numb, and the long sword in his hand was hit directly on the ground by a living corpse.
But the attack of the living corpses did not end.
It twisted its body back at a strange angle that a normal person would never be able to do, raised the rusted sword again, and slashed at the captain of the knight.
"team leader!"
The extraordinary knights exclaimed.
Looking at the rusty sword slashing towards him, the knight captain's face paled.
He knew that he couldn't stop this blow!
However, just when he thought he was about to die, a piercing sound came from behind.
A crossbow arrow directly penetrated the head of the advanced living corpse, and flew the rotten head out, nailing it to a tree trunk not far away.
The living corpse that lost its head shook a few times, and slowly fell limp.
The anxious extraordinary knights were slightly taken aback, as was the cavalry captain.
He turned his head subconsciously, and saw his beautiful and lovely Earl standing not far away, unhurriedly put away the hand crossbow that he did not know where he took it out, and skillfully reloaded a crossbow bolt.
It's different from the elegant, generous and pitiful ones at the banquet, and it's also different from the innocent, cute and innocent ones on weekdays...
At this moment, Charlotte's expression was calm, and she didn't see the slightest fear of the horrible living corpses. She didn't look like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl at all.
She carried a hand crossbow, jumped over the corpse on the ground, and came to the side of the knight captain. She pulled out the rusty sword used by the living corpse who had just entered the rank, and weighed it in her hand.
However, after pulling out the rusty sword, the girl seemed to have discovered something, frowned slightly, raised the sword and sniffed.
Then, she raised her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Count... my lord?"
Noticing the girl's thoughtful gaze, the knight captain couldn't help calling out.
Hearing the knight's voice, Charlotte regained consciousness.
She swung the rusty sword, looked at the tide of living corpses not far away, took a light breath, and said calmly:
"Break out with me."
After finishing speaking, she passed the knight captain and walked towards the camp first.
As if attracted by the girl's exuberant breath of life, the living corpses screamed and rushed towards her.
"Master Earl!"
The knight captain's expression changed slightly.
He quickly picked up the long sword again, ready to step forward to support.
However, before he could rush up, he saw his own earl attacking first.
Under the clear moonlight, the girl's blond hair moved with the wind, shining a little silver.
She swung the rusty sword and slashed at the charging corpse.
The girl's movements don't have too complicated skills, just the simplest and most basic sword skills.
However, the knight captain was shocked to find that his sight could not keep up with the movements of his own earl.
Fast... very fast!
I saw Charlotte dodge, and the silver sword light refracted by the moonlight flickered around her.
A sharp sword light flashed, and she ran a few steps towards the living corpse that was rushing towards her, and instantly fell to the ground with her head in a different place.
The living corpse that rushed to the front was cut off by the sword light, and even the tattered armor on its body was cut in half.
But the girl who made all these attacks was quite relaxed.
She flicked the rusty sword casually, and the black blood left on it was thrown to the ground, and the crimson light flickered faintly in the blue eyes.
For the first time, the extraordinary breath spread from Charlotte's body, with profound magic fluctuations...
That powerful aura made the starry captain feel a slight tingling on his skin.
It was an instinct that came from the body of a transcendent when encountering a more powerful transcendent.
Advanced!
The Earl turned out to be an advanced person!
The knight captain's eyes widened.
However, at this moment, another swift figure rushed out from the tide of living corpses.
That turned out to be another living corpse that had entered the stage!
Like the first living corpse, this living corpse is extremely cunning.
The timing and position it chose were so ingenious, it rushed over when the girl had just finished a round of attack, and launched a sneak attack directly from behind the girl!
The knight captain's expression changed drastically, and he was about to warn, but saw his earl raised his hand crossbow and shot an arrow behind him as if he had eyes behind him.
The sharp crossbow shot out, as if the angle had been calculated long ago, it was unbiased, and it directly penetrated the jumping corpse's head, flew it out, and nailed it directly to the big tree.
The advanced living corpse twitched twice, and the dark green flames in its eye sockets slowly extinguished.
Quiet.
It was quiet.
Obviously the living corpses were still roaring and roaring, but at this moment the extraordinary knights fell into an eerie silence.
They all looked at the girl walking in the front with incredulous eyes, as if they were meeting their newly succeeded countess for the first time.
Regarding Charlotte's strength, the extraordinary knights from Castel Territory were not clear.
They only knew from the quasi-guard knights who were loyal to the girl in Castel Manor that she was also a Transcendent.
But those stingy guys didn't reveal the specific power to them.
After the start, the powerful Castel convoy has not been attacked so far, so no one knows Charlotte's strength.
The knights just relied on their first impressions, thinking that the young Earl should have just awakened the power of blood.
It is difficult for them to connect the beautiful, lovely, innocent, and unbearably protective earl with the powerful transcendent.
However, at this moment, the girl's combat power exceeded their expectations.
God my lord, the Earl is actually a novice!
And... still quite a powerful beginner!
starry? Or Silver Moon?
With such great power at such a young age, is it possible that there will be another Chi Yang in Castel in the future?
As if sensing the sight of the knights, the girl turned slightly and turned her head.
Seeing the gazes of the crowd focusing on her, she smiled and said:
"What are you doing in a daze? Break out with me."
As she spoke, she conveniently put away the hand crossbow that had no more arrows left, and at the same time threw the rusty sword behind her, nailing another living corpse that was trying to sneak attack to the tree.
The silver moonlight shone on the young girl's body, coating her with a layer of mysterious brilliance.
The girl casually pulled out the rusty sword nailed to the corpse, and shook the dirty blood off it again.
"Oh, right."
As if remembering something, she put the index finger of her left hand on her lips, and smiled slightly at the knight behind her. The corner of her mouth curled up in a beautiful arc, and blood flashed faintly in her pupils:
"My strength, keep it a secret."
After finishing speaking, she chuckled lightly, turned around and continued to attack towards the camp.
The extraordinary knights stared blankly at the girl's petite figure, a blush also flashed in their pupils, and they all showed bewilderment and obsession.
It took a while for them to react, and quickly followed behind, also rushing forward.
Looking at the seemingly frail figure who walked comfortably among the living corpses like a Valkyrie, the knight captain couldn't help but murmured:
"Your Earl...that's amazing!"
...
Night is the home of the Blood Race.
Charlotte, who had trained in Boulder for more than half a year, was no longer what it used to be. These besieged undead were no match for her at all.
Compared to cleaning up these living corpses, perhaps it would be more difficult to bring the extraordinary knights behind them back to the camp intact.
Of course, the group didn't leave the camp too far, and it didn't take long for them to return to the camp under Charlotte's lead.
But the camp, too, was in turmoil.
As soon as Charlotte walked out of the dense forest, she saw a holy radiance shrouded the top of the camp. It was Lottie and the accompanying trainee priests who performed the magic of purification and blessing.
Not only that, but a silver light shot up into the sky and turned into a translucent cover, protecting everyone inside.
Charlotte recognized it, it was Nice's magic contract.
Around the camp, countless living corpses were attacking the fortifications that the accompanying mages had temporarily fashioned with earth elemental magic.
Charlotte looked towards both ends of the road, and could only see dense green soul flames.
This is no ordinary undead.
This is obviously an undead army controlled by someone behind it!
"Master Earl!"
Seeing Charlotte returning safely surrounded by extraordinary knights, Baron Sharon, who led the team, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly called the knights to open a path for everyone.
Charlotte returned to the camp and dropped the blood-stained rusty sword. The black cat Niss quickly rushed over:
"Meow! Miss Charlotte, you are back! If you don't come back, we are going to rescue you!"
Charlotte picked up its stamina in disgust, stopped its pounce, and then asked:
"How's the camp?"
Nice cat's face is serious:
"It's not good! There are too many undead besieging! And many of them are enterers!"
"Although they can't attack the camp now, everyone will always be tired...Unless there is God's blessing, otherwise, the stalemate will only become more and more dangerous."
When it comes to "gods", it deliberately emphasizes the tone, which obviously means something.
Charlotte glanced at it with a half-smile, but Nice coughed lightly and said:
"Miss Charlotte, I'm afraid we have encountered an ambush. So many undead are definitely being manipulated by someone, and...if we are not fully prepared, we will definitely not ambush so many undead!"
Charlotte was noncommittal.
She nodded slightly, looked left and right, and looked for another figure:
"Where's Sebas?"
"Meow! I don't know! That guy disappeared once the battle started!"
Ness the black cat is outraged.
Charlotte glanced at it lightly again.
Stared at by the girl's deep eyes, Niss shrank his tail slightly, and then said honestly:
"Meow...probably...probably looking for the necromancer behind it?"
Charlotte just put it down.
She wondered if she should call Sebas back through a secret connection first, but suddenly her heart moved slightly, and she looked into the air.
The nimble Sebastian jumped lightly, jumped down from the towering trees on both sides of the road, and jumped directly in front of him.
"Back? How's the situation?"
Charlotte asked.
Sebastian's eyes stopped on the other knights, and he said seriously:
"Owner……"
Noticing his sight, Charlotte's heart moved slightly, and she ordered the other extraordinary knights to continue to assist in the battle, leaving only Sebastian, she and Nice with one cat.
"Let's talk, how many undead are there, and what about their strength?"
"A lot! A lot! I'm afraid the number is more than five thousand! There may be more! Not only that... There are also some necromancers outside!"
Sebas said in a low voice.
Charlotte raised an eyebrow.
The Servant of the Necromancer is at the second level of Silver Moon.
However, in such a large-scale undead wave, there was no Dark Knight of the third rank of Blazing Sun, indicating that the manipulator behind the scenes should be only a Necromancer of Silver Moon level, but there may be more than one person.
"Have you found the location of the mage behind the scenes?"
Charlotte asked.
Sebastian's complexion was a little ugly:
"No, the other party... seems to be very good at hiding aura."
Charlotte nodded clearly, as if she had expected it:
"It's normal, after all... the night is the blood race's home field."
"Bloodlines?"
Sebas's eyelids twitched, and his expression suddenly became strange.
"Yes, Bloodline."
"From the tainted blood of those living corpses, I smell some aura of the same origin..."
Charlotte narrowed her eyes and said.
Recommend a friend's book, "The Holy King of Wu Temple is My Father"
