Chapter 492: A Raid from the Bottom of the Lake

The walls of Purgatory City are similar in shape to the Devil's Lake, in the shape of a 'U' shaped like a horseshoe, and are divided into two walls, the outer wall and the inner wall, separated by a waterway about 100 meters wide.

In fact, because of the existence of the Devil's Lake, Purgatory City has been impregnable, but the designer of Purgatory City is obviously the kind of cautious, plus a model of ingenuity, and he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build an extra inner city wall! In fact, it is not only Purgatory City, many large cities have built two inner and outer city walls! Such advantages are also obvious, once the enemy breaks through the city gate, it will fall into the urn area formed between the inner and outer city walls, with rangers, mages, Lancers and other ranged attack forces can deal a fatal blow to enemies who enter the urn area!

And for Purgatory City, the existence of the urn area, that is, the waterway, has the advantage of being able to close the surface of the lake and protect the ships that can sail on the surface of the Devil's Lake in times of war, so as to achieve the purpose of blocking the lake and protecting the ships!

Due to the siege of the city by the army of the Guardians of the Holy Sepulchre, the Death Knights imposed an extremely strict curfew on Infernal City, prohibiting anyone from walking the streets after six o'clock every day, except for the patrolling soldiers.

It's May 27, 10 p.m. At this time, the entire Purgatory City was already quiet, there was no human figure in the empty streets, and most of the attics were black-lit.

"Click-click-click-"

At this moment, on the main road where the three gates were located, there was a sudden and continuous sound of knocking, which immediately woke up the citizens on both sides of the street who were unable to sleep completely because they were afraid. With apprehension, they crept up from their beds and carefully opened the curtains, and suddenly they saw a large number of black-armored knights who were constantly pouring out in the direction of the city gate - death charging horses with fiery eyes, black-armored knights wearing short black cloaks, and the jet-black death lance held by the black-armored knights, this is the most elite and powerful death knight in the city, and there can be no mistake!

Could it be that the knight lord has finally decided to fight back?! The citizens who saw this scene couldn't help but think in ecstasy. Although the heretic army outside the city is twice as large as the defenders in the city, under the leadership of the Knight Elder, they are convinced that the Death Knights will never fail!

"Giggles, it's finally going to start, it's really exciting!" Somewhere in the shadows, there was a faint faint sound of delicate and charming low laughter. There seems to be some kind of magic in this laughter, and just listening to it is enough to make any male's blood stir!

"I don't know how many more people will die now—" Immediately after, a low sigh came from the shadows, holy and elegant, and the voice was full of pity for life.

"Leia, you are really always so compassionate and world-minded, no wonder the master often says ****, your are really big, giggle-"

Immediately after, a shy cry suddenly came from the shadows, making people can't help but imagine what is happening inside is very pure and ambiguous...... Immediately, you can hear the noble one scolding in a slightly angry voice: "You shameless witch, if you dare to touch it again, I will have to tie you up and give it to your lustful master!"

"Giggles, you're really funny, I'm a witch, and I'm a succubus!" can be heard, the enchanter who claimed to be a succubus didn't take the threat of the other person to heart at all, and even said in a tone full of tease and expectation, "And tie up or something, in fact, I like it a lot, giggle-"

"I really can't stand you!" It is conceivable that the noble man had an expression of 'completely defeated by you' at this time, "Let's leave quickly, since the Death Knights are preparing to fight back, maybe there will be a Templar-level powerhouse to patrol later, I don't want to suffer because you, a witch, are discovered!"

"Eh, I can tell you still care about me, you really deserve to be my good sister! I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to charm the master under our short skirt!"

"Damn it, who would wear that kind of nasty dress!" It can be heard that the shyness of the noble has suddenly increased by a hundred percent!

"Giggles, I see, you actually prefer that kind of strapless corset! Well, you dress like that, even I will be jealous when I see it, and the owner will even stare out of the eyes when I see it! But are you sure you don't wear the ****** that your master said he was going to give us?

"Is that a question of whether it's cool or not?!"

Soon, the conversation between the two faded into the boundless darkness......

Now there are a large number of Death Knights and Death Knights converging in the direction of the three gates, the strange thing is that although the inner gates are open, the three outer gates are still closed, and the ships moored in the urn area have no intention of starting, are these Death Knights still planning to fly over and raid the army of the Guardians of the Holy Sepulchre on the other side of the lake?

At this time, on the city wall above the three inner city gates, there was a row of priests holding scepters and wearing divine robes, only to see them constantly waving the scepters in their hands, and suddenly a large amount of divine light fell on the cavalry who were approaching below. The light of these divine spells soon disappeared into the bodies of these cavalry and the death charge warhorses beneath them, making it impossible to see what kind of magic these priests were casting.

Immediately after, an astonishing scene appeared, those cavalry who passed through the city gate, they actually slowly instigated their war horses, along the smooth slopes on both sides of the city gate, and continued to go deeper into the devil's lake, until they were completely swallowed by the lake!

Apparently, the Death Knights are planning to attack the army of the Guardians of the Holy Sepulchre from the bottom of the lake!

I have to say that this is indeed a rather difficult plan to prevent, I am afraid that no one could have expected that the Death Knights would be able to carry out a surprise attack from the bottom of the dangerous and abnormal Devil's Lake!

But if you think about it, only the Death Knights can accomplish this feat, because the existence of the Death Charge War Horse can allow the cavalry to avoid the threat from the manta rays, and if other knights dare to enter the bottom of the Devil's Lake, they will definitely be swallowed by a huge number of manta rays, and there will be no bones left!

As for the magic that the priests used for these Death Knights and Death Knight Servants when passing through the city gates, they were actually just similar to expert-level magic underwater breathing. Expert-level underwater breathing techniques can allow people to breathe normally under the water as if they were on the ground in six hours! However, it is necessary to apply a fourth-level divine skill to more than 200,000 cavalry, even if these priests are priests above the bishop level, and at the same time, with the convenience of the divine scepter, they are afraid that they will also have a serious mental breakdown in the future!

The darkness is always full of loneliness and coldness, and at the bottom of the Devil's Lake, which is tens of meters deep, it is even darker and desperate! However, the bottom of the Devil's Lake is not completely without sound, and many Death Knights and Knights can faintly hear the sound of churning water, and they know that it is caused by the swimming of the devil ray! Some people can even clearly feel that from time to time something will hit their armor, causing a low sound of "bang--", they know that these things must be devil rays!

At this time, they couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately they were wearing full armor! Although the wet armor and underwear now made them feel extremely uncomfortable and unusually heavy, it was better than being slipped into the clothes and pants of those slippery manta rays, even if they knew they would not attack themselves!

"Poof—"

At this time, a transparent blister suddenly sprang up at the bottom of a lake. As the bubble touched a death charge horse that happened to pass by, the bubble burst open, and then a dark blue flame gushed out, a flame that could burn at the bottom of the lake!

Then, like a maggot on the tarsal bone, the dark blue flame spread along the belly of the war horse to both ends of the war horse, and even the knight on the war horse was soon affected by the flames! What is even more amazing is that whether it is the tenacious death charge war horse or the high-quality heavy armor worn by the death knight on the war horse, those places affected by the dark blue flames are disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if they are constantly gnawing at a greedy invisible devil!

It could be seen that the burning of the blue flames had caused considerable pain to the Death Knight, and his body was constantly trembling as a result. However, he never made any sound, and even at the moment when he understood the horror of the dark blue flames, his first action was to strangle the mouth of the war horse under him, which he had always regarded as his second life and most important partner, and then in the next moment, he directly twisted the neck of the war horse!

Although he and Aimana were already cold, they could still see the infinite affection for themselves, and the knight felt extremely painful and self-reproachful, but he did not regret it, it was not difficult for him to let the Knights' raid plan be exposed in advance because of the sound of himself or his own warhorse! Even if this possibility was actually quite small because of the distance and the lake, he had to do his best, even if he paid for his life and that of his horse!

Because this is the glory of being a death knight, and at the same time the glory of being a member of the Inquisition! As I heard it not long ago, Viscount Blackwind said—glory, that is, my life!

Finally, with a blessing, he glanced at his comrades around him with affection, and the death knight suddenly appeared with the blue flame, and then disappeared into the boundless darkness at the bottom of the lake out of thin air......

The surrounding Death Knights all watched silently, their eyes full of sadness, but their will was not shaken by the sudden death of their comrades, on the contrary, their eyes became more determined - for their comrades! For the Knights! For the Inquisition! For the glory!

Similar scenes are not only happening in one place and one time segment, but one after another excellent Death Knights or Knight Servants are swallowed up by all kinds of tricks that keep emerging from the bottom of the lake, but none of this can stop the Death Knights from advancing!

"Whoa—"

The pitch-black spear tips continued to emerge slowly from the surface of the lake, reflecting the icy cold glow under the illumination of the moonlight!
