Chapter 138: A Sharp Turn

Malthus smiled, "But how can you be sure that it must be your reinforcements?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a miserable white mist filled the courtyard. In the canopy of the undead, there were screams of soldiers. It was almost impossible to see outside the window, and in the dim darkness there was a sudden strong wind, as if some ghost was pounding on the window of the reception room, shaking the glass to a crackling sound.

Outside the hallway, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and the soldiers who arrived screamed loudly, and then the cries for help gradually faded and were replaced by the cold giggles of women. The sound was like a cold poisonous snake, slowly crawling into people's ears, making people shudder to listen.

Charlotte and the others were in the shadow of the hallway. When they heard the screams, they had been peeking into the room only to see a dozen or so ghosts surrounding the soldiers who had arrived, and by the time they wanted to save them, it was already too late. Those ghosts just hugged the soldiers' heads and sucked them up, sucking the souls of those soldiers who were not strong.

These ghosts hovered and flew in the air as if they had eaten some delicious meal, and from time to time they let out a cold laugh, even from the other plane, which made Charlotte's heart unhappy.

In the reception room, Malthus had the chance to win. He looked at the frightened crowd and asked, "What now?"

But as soon as the words fell, a series of violent explosions were heard on the outskirts of the city. Malthus subconsciously looked out the window, and the canopy of the dead had no effect on him, and at a glance, he saw a monstrous fire in the mage prison on the outskirts of the city.

- Someone robbed the prison!

Malthus's face changed, his lips moved, and he was about to say something when a mage's retinue behind him stepped forward tremblingly, whispering to him that he had just received the message that a group had destroyed Malthus's sacrificial place.

This time, Malthus's expression became even more exciting. But soon he calmed down, and instead smiled and applauded at Zenas and the others.

"Remarkable! This was a harsh remark, causing Zenas to frown, "Did you suspect me early in the morning? You can still think of sending people to raid the manor and the mage prison, it's amazing, it's amazing! But even so, you all have to die here today!"

Malthus was about to do it, but Zenas's answer made him stunned.

"I didn't send a raid on the manor or prison. "It seems that there are quite a few people who want the life of Master Malthus." ”

At this time, Malthus could no longer remain indifferent, his face changed, and he subconsciously muttered, "Could it be that guy made a move?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the screams of the ghosts of panic and resentment could be heard outside the door. The sound was like a cold knife in the bottom of people's hearts, and two officers in the reception room who were not strong fell to the ground on the spot. Zenas's face changed, and he summoned up his magic energy to fight back, when he heard the screams of the wraiths come to an abrupt end as if someone had choked his neck.

"These guys are really ugly. Someone said outside the door.

"You'll have to be glad they don't have a banshee, or the howl will be enough to make the soul come out of your shell. The other replied.

"Have you seen that?" asked the man in front of him.

"Of course!" replied the latter, "don't forget, I've been a demon hunter for a while. ”

"Amazing. Despite this, there was no respect in the tone of the former person.

"Two, now is not the time to flatter each other. A third man's voice rang out.

"Yes, let's go and meet this Mr. Malthus. also let him see how bad his popularity is. ”

The three people outside the door were talking, but the expressions of everyone inside the door were different.

Malthus quietly changed his position, and the atmosphere in the room became strange due to the unexpected arrival of the guest. They maintained strange composure, and looked at the comer together.

The door was pushed open, and it turned out to be all acquaintances. From left to right, Charlotte, Elbert, and Neham stand, three young men standing in the doorway, with an astonishing momentum of their own.

Malthus's face changed, and this time his face really became extremely ugly. He knew all the three people who came, and each of them was a powerful opponent who could cheer Malthus up to twelve points, but now, these three people actually came together.

His mind raced, and he knew that if he fought in this meeting room, he would definitely lose. The point is that he has to stall for time, as long as he is allowed to merge into the canopy of the dead, then he can use that killer weapon to turn the situation around in an instant.

While it would be a bit frustrating to use the backhand reserved for that man, it would not be too much to be cautious if the opponent was Charlotte Clayderman. The shadow of the famous tree of people, even if he has never seen it, but Malthus regarded Charlotte as a great danger and did not dare to despise it in the slightest.

As soon as he thought of this, he grinned instead, "Hahahaha! I am really flattered and deeply honored to let heroes such as the Emperor of San Lorenzo, the Count of Wintercastle, the Demon Hunter, the Generalissimo of the Lighthouse, and General Verus put aside their hatred and join forces against the enemy!"

As soon as the words fell, Elbert and Zenas looked at each other, the former with anger in his eyes, and the latter dodged slightly, and then straightened his chest and looked at each other without avoidance.

The two men were mortal enemies, and it was the defeat of Elbert by the Lighthouse army led by Zenas at the Battle of Arad that dashed the latter's dreams of reviving the empire. If there is no knot between the two, it is really a fantasy.

The atmosphere in the reception room changed again, and the three forces of Elbert, Zenas, and Malthus were each on their own, and they were wary of each other, and no one dared to take the lead.

In just a few words, Malthus aroused suspicion between the two sides. Hatred and suspicion together could no longer work together, but Malthus seized this rare opportunity.

"Everybody......

Just as Charlotte was planning to be a peacemaker and let the two sides work together to deal with Malthus first. The latter, as if sensing Charlotte's thoughts, rushed to the window first.

Without saying a word, Charlotte pointed at Malthus with her hand, and as soon as she struck, she was a merciless finger of death. But the latter grabbed the entourage next to him, and jumped out of the room by smashing through the window sideways. The attendant was struck by the finger of death and fell to the ground in an instant, and the other attendant tried to escape with Malthus, but was beheaded by Zenas with a sword.

Originally, with the strength of everyone here, there was a great possibility that Malthus would be able to stay indoors. But because the two sides were wary of each other, the hesitation allowed Malthus to seize the opportunity to escape outside. At this moment, Zenas stood by the broken glass window and looked out, only to see the fog billowing in the courtyard, where could there be any trace of Malthus.

"Damn! let him give ......"

Before he could finish speaking, a green light shot straight into Zenas's chest. Zenas subconsciously gave way, and an officer beside him avoided it, and suddenly collapsed to the ground like soft mud.

It was also a finger of death, and Malthus didn't flee in the first place.

"Everyone!" Charlotte immediately added to the proposal, "I know that there are irreconcilable contradictions between us, but the priority is to seize Malthus and stop the undead scourge. What do you think?"

Zenas and Elbert looked at each other, and were about to nod their heads, when they heard screams and cries coming from within the city. The whole city was like boiling water that suddenly boiled, and there was a lot of noise.

The communication badge on Charlotte's chest flickered slightly, and as soon as Charlotte pressed the button, she heard Vivien's anxious voice coming from the other end.

"Teacher, can you hear me? Many people in the city and the city have become undead creatures! There are even quite a few black knights!"

"What!?"

As soon as Charlotte was about to inquire further, she saw that Verus and other soldiers also showed painful expressions, and two of them seemed to be lacking in resistance, and suddenly convulsed and fell to the ground and died, and when they opened their eyes again, they were already emotionless black warriors.

"How?" Malthus's voice came from the courtyard, "Do you really think that the potion is to prevent the corpse from being transformed? No, its real function is to leave a primer, which can be transformed into a primer for high-level undead!"

"How is that possible!" Charlotte was shocked, "but I have checked the potion!"

"Of course you can't find a problem with the potion, because it's not a problem per se. A woman's proud voice came from the courtyard, and Charlotte's eyes froze, it was Gloria!

"Butβ€”with the addition of the Blackest Holiness in my hands, it can turn a beneficial medicine into a deadly poison!" Gloria was indeed Malthus's accomplice, and the Blackest Holiness must be the black stone he was talking about, "Charlotte, how are you going to escape from this city full of undead spirits?" ”
