Chapter Ninety-Six: Sword Light

Duke, who was far away in the middle of the position, also spotted the same direction as Lenia.

When he looked at it, his head was instantly filled with surprise, and the people on the other side were wearing familiar white robes and chain mail, wearing helmets like tin cans on their heads, and the important thing was the golden emblem on their chests that was still a little dazzling even in the thick fog.

All of this indicates that this group of people is the Holy Maiden Guard who appeared in the Northern Fortress before, Tiger's men.

It's just that at this time, they didn't say a word, and they slowly approached their side with their spears with gloomy faces, and the surrounding demonic beasts strangely did not attack them, and even avoided them intentionally or unintentionally.

"Lord, I don't feel the breath of life in these people. ”

After observing for a moment, Lenia cautiously approached Duke and whispered in his ear, trying to keep her volume from the soldiers around her.

Hiss!

After Lenia's reminder, Duke took a closer look again and noticed that the "people" were not only slow, but also a little stiff and strange.

Thinking that these people had no breath of life again, Duke's brain immediately flashed countless rumors about zombies and zombies.

He didn't expect that the scene that he could only see in the movie in his previous life would now appear in front of him alive, or in reality, and he was obviously hostile to himself, and he was about to attack.

"How are we going to deal with these zombies attacking, and can we defend ourselves against them now?"

After looking around for a week, Duke immediately realized that there were no agents in his team related to the Church of Light. Previously, Tiger was barely a Templar with the blessing of light, and had a natural advantage and effect in dealing with such filth, but now he is gone.

Generally speaking, the vitality of these ghosts is very tenacious, even if they have suffered some fatal injuries for humans, they can continue to fight, and they have good resistance to spells other than light magic, and the key is that these people are still good Templars in life, which is an invisible step up a notch for the threat to the position.

It just so happened that the place where Duke and Lenia stayed was the line of defense in charge of the anvil, and after hearing the discussion between the two of them, he said a little carelessly: "No matter how weird the evil thing is, it looks pale in the face of absolute power. ”

As he spoke, he picked up his steam rifle and carefully aimed ahead with his raised lookout with bated breath, and with a muffled bang, the nearest "iron can" more than a dozen meters away almost shattered in response, and scattered pieces of iron and all kinds of brain contents splashed all around.

However, the former Templar who had lost his head only paused, slightly dazed, and touched the place that had once been his head with his empty left and right, and soon continued to stagger forward as if nothing had happened.

"This ......"

The strength of the zombie's body is a bit beyond the anvil's imagination, he originally thought that knocking off the head that is the center of everything would also be a fatal blow to the zombie, but he didn't expect the other party to continue to walk this way like no one.

However, Duke discovers that the zombies are not unstoppable, and although they cannot be completely destroyed, they can use some clever distribution to break their bodies to achieve the same goal.

"Pass the order, shoot at the limbs of these zombies as soon as they get close, and let them stay where they are and walk with their heads. ”

After observing for a while, Duke felt more and more that his idea was feasible, so he ordered the soldiers to do it, I don't know if it was because of the loss of vitality and the various joints of the body became weak, even if the magic energy rifle could easily shatter it as long as it hit.

The soldiers followed Duke's method to confirm that the results would soon be visible, and the knight zombies who were about to become a great threat were now all broken limbs and wriggling on the ground in a strange position, but they couldn't move forward in any way.

Seeing that the entire formation was still relatively stable overall, and would not be scattered by the surging demonic beasts for a while, Lenia walked in another direction with her sword in hand. Duke continued to return to the material accumulation in the middle of the formation to guard, and from time to time he also helped the soldiers who managed the logistics to carry boxes of ammunition.

At first, the soldiers resisted, but eventually they all acquiesced to the lord's help when Duke demanded and did need manpower.

On the other hand, Duke also quietly took advantage of everyone's inattention to bring out the five boxes of magic bombs he had stored in the system's inventory, and then placed them in an inconspicuous corner, only waiting for the wrong time to distribute them as a killer tool.

Due to the proper tactics and strong firepower, even though the circle formed by the rescue team was surrounded by water, it was able to maintain the formation without a single casualty, and it stubbornly fought against the constantly gushing monsters for about half an hour.

However, just when Duke thought that the current situation would be able to maintain a stalemate until the hidden manipulators of the Church of the End could not help but throw more chips or retreat, a mutation occurred.

A fiery white sword shadow suddenly flashed on the battlefield that had maintained a delicate balance, and without warning, it approached the formation formed by the rescue team, and in the blink of an eye, it was about to cut the nearest few soldiers and war horses into pieces.

Fortunately, Lenia, who was supervising the battle on the side, was very vigilant, and when a little light appeared in the mist, it was captured by her powerful perceptual ability, and she immediately carried her saber and spewed out a fiery red fighting qi, stabbing out to shatter the approaching sword shadow.

With a bang, the two swords clashed together after a brief long-range probe with a pleasant crisp sound.

A female knight dressed in silver-white plate armor appeared in front of Lenia, the silent female knight who had been with Tiger earlier as the captain of the vice-guard.

It's just that at this time, her condition is very miserable, a large wound piercing her left chest, through this hole, you can still see the blurred flesh and missing heart at the wound.

Her lips were blackened and her face was pale, and she had apparently been dead for a long time, and was now being manipulated by some unknown evil art of the Church of the End to launch an unconscious attack on them.

Duke couldn't see it well from a distance, so he looked closer, and soon he was horrified to find that the wound was a fatal wound caused by some kind of sharp weapon in the back.

"Lenia, watch out for her accomplices!"

However, Duke's reminder was still a little late, and almost as he spoke, the space behind Lenia seemed to appear a ripple-like twist, and another figure in silver plate armor slashed an unusual red-black sword light at the neck of the chief knight who had not yet had time to notice.
