"Come out, Aeno, you've had a hard time making us find. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" The voice outside the window was cold and stiff, without the slightest emotion, and it was darker than night.

Maureen turned his head slowly, only to see a tattered black cloak floating outside the window.

No, not just a tattered cloak, but in that cloak, there was also a faintly blurred face, taking on the appearance of a pale green rotting corpse, a ghost, a ghost in a cloak. Seeing this scene, the red and yellow flames around Xiao Hei's body exploded, and he threw the towel he was holding on his arm to the ground, and hid behind the young man with his slender arm, and his slender arm grabbed the young man's collar, revealing only one eye to watch quietly.

Ghosts are a very special kind of dead, unlike others, the body of ghosts is almost entirely composed of souls, mixed with only a small amount of physical material elements, can dodge almost any ordinary weapon attacks, but is very vulnerable to magic or enchanted weapons, belongs to the third order of the class.

But the one in front of him was obviously much more powerful, not only wearing a cloak, but Merlin could even see the dark armor under the cloak, and the weapons draped, wearing these metals, but still floating in the air. And the more equipment they can wear, the more condensed the ghost's body, that is, the stronger their strength.

The boy gave Aeno a wink and motioned for her to hurry up and find a way to hold the ghost down. He quickly recalled the relevant books in his mind, and desperately thought that there must be some way, there must be something.

But the girl just shook her head and said, "They can't run away, they can track my location now, go out with me, remember what I asked you to do." She looked at Merlin earnestly, "Take my body into the distance, bury it in a quiet corner, and plant a small tree if you can...... Please. ”

"But ......," the young man said hurriedly, "If you really can't escape, it may be a choice to follow them back." ”

"No," Aeno shook her head again, and she took out a silver dagger from her bosom, which was inlaid with dark red gems, but it looked very old and dull, "they will forcibly take me back, and I will pierce me in the heart with this dagger, and I will leave the rest to you." Although I am not very old, I know that at least I think," the girl said firmly, "that there are things more important than life." ”

After saying that, she jumped out of bed, walked to the door, and said: "You can return that wand to the old man if you have a chance, I shouldn't need it, don't be sad, after I die, maybe I can reunite with my parents and the village chief." Her voice was so calm, as if she was just going to do something very ordinary.

Merlin looked at Eminor, then at the ghost outside the window, gritted his teeth, hung the dagger and the strange musket on the table back to his waist, and followed him out of the room. And Xiao Hei, feeling the young man's determination, floated around the room, and his two slender arms each rolled up a dinner knife, pursed his dark red mouth, and followed closely behind the young man.

It was late at night, the lighting crystals had been mostly extinguished, and the dimly lit streets could still be seen occasionally drunk and reckless, staggering in search of their homes.

But even a drunken reckless man will subconsciously avoid this place. Because there are three guys in black cloaks here, exuding a terrifying aura, especially the one in the middle, who is actually half-floating in the air.

In addition to the avatar body, another characteristic of the ghost is that it spreads fear.

On either side of the ghost, there were two walking corpse swordsmen in black armor, and from time to time a few fat maggots came out of their rotting bodies, which they pulled out casually, and then threw them into their mouths without care, and yellow pus overflowed from their tattered esophagus.

Holding back the discomfort in his stomach, Merlin moved forward, keeping Aeno behind. Blackie, wielding a dinner knife, landed on the young man's shoulder, plucking up the courage to glare at the three dead in front of him.

"Aeno, Lord Lordship has sent me to take you back. The floating ghost said, his voice cold and stiff, without the slightest emotion, "Alive." ”

"Threost, I won't go back," Aeno shook her head, and said firmly, "in life or death. ”

"It's naïve, I think, I'm afraid it's not up to you," the ghost, known as Threost, gestured as he stretched out the glove under his cloak, and the walking corpse warriors on either side of him immediately put their hands on the long sword at their waists.

"Wait a minute!" Ignoring Aeno tugging at him behind him, Merlin shouted, "I don't agree!"

Threost turned his gaze slightly, and there seemed to be a pale green flame burning in his hollow eyes, and with a hint of mockery in his voice, he said, "Aeno, you've only been out for a few days, and you know the other little mice?" ”

With the gaze of the ghost, Merlin felt a cold shiver spread throughout his body, he brushed the short sword at his waist and pulled it out of his waist, put it sideways in front of him, and said boldly: "Aeno, she doesn't want to go back, why did you forcibly take her away, kidnap her, this is not the land of the dead that you can run amok!"

"Oh, don't you know that every dead belong to the lord who evokes them. Why do you think the little vampire around you is still alive after running away for so long?" Threost sneered, "Because Lord Blood Scepter appreciates her talent and is unwilling to kill her directly with a contract, Lord Lord's letting her die only needs a slight thought." With that, he waved his hand again, motioning for the walking corpse swordsman next to him to step forward and grab Eminor.

Hearing this, the young man was startled, and looked at Aeno, and saw that the girl did not deny it, and his heart sank, but when he saw the girl's resolute eyes and the dagger hidden under her cloak, he finally turned to Threost.

The Walking Corpse Swordsman was slowly approaching, and seeing that he could not delay any longer, Merlin took a deep breath, put the small flower in his left hand into his pocket, screamed, and rushed towards the floating ghost with his short sword.

"Ahh

To Morin's surprise, he was met with no resistance, and the dagger plunged directly into the ghost's face, even piercing the cloak behind his head.

However, it was obvious that this sword would not have any effect, and the young man's heart sank, thinking that if this was really on the battlefield, he would have died, and sure enough, what the book said was still true.

Threost shook his head, as if feeling the dagger stirring through his body, and said, "Ignorant boy. ”

He flew up with a leg like thunder, and the cold and hard armor hit the boy's abdomen directly, and before he realized the pain, his body was already flying in the air.

His young body slammed into the wall on the side of the street and fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"It's so strong...... Far more than the strength of the third order of troops...... "The young man didn't care about his injuries, but secretly speculated about the strength of the other party, the ghost is not a deceased who is known for his strength, from this point of view, the other party may not be as powerful as Minelma, but the gargoyle should not be able to stop him.

Equino ran to the young man's side and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Morin, "Don't worry, I have a way, it's okay." ”

He got up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and once again rushed towards the ghost, shouting and mocking: "Lowly ghost, you should not be as good as those stupid walking corpses, lose your cloak, see how you walk in the sun." As he spoke, he slashed at the same part as before.

Sure enough, Seleost did not let Merlin continue to destroy his cloak, he pulled out the scimitar at his waist, which was a long scimitar that was as dark as night, and casually blocked Morin's short sword, and said: "It's none of your business here, if you hinder us any longer, it won't be as simple as being beaten and vomiting blood." ”

"Then you can try. The corners of Morin's mouth curled slightly, revealing a smug expression.

He held the short sword with his right hand and pushed hard, and with the help of the reaction, his body retreated slightly by a distance, half leaning on the ground, and with his left hand, he pulled out the strange musket on his waist, aimed it at the face of Sereost diagonally above, and said, "You can taste this first." ”

There was a soft "click".

And yet nothing happened.

"Ahh

"Are you here to be a clown," said Threost harshly, "but alas, I can't laugh anymore." He floated some distance forward, and with another kick, he kicked Maureen into the wall.

"There should have been two broken ribs...... There's really nothing to fight back......" Merlin sighed inwardly and spat blood again, but he gritted his teeth and struggled to get up.

Seeing that the boy was beaten to vomit blood, Xiao Hei, who was floating beside the girl, looked at the ghost, puffed up, the edge of the black flame ignited a red fire, and the slender arm brandished a dinner knife and rushed towards the ghost.

But he didn't even touch the ghost's cloak, he was slapped and scattered, the dinner knife jingled and fell to the ground, wisps of flame floated back to the young man's shoulder and regrouped, the little black chirp that was much weaker chirped twice, and the dark green eyes looked at Mo Lin aggrievedly, and then hid back in the inky ring marks, I tried my best, the opponent is too strong, young man, you take me away.

Sensing that the black fire was no big deal, Maureen turned his attention back to the present.

He threw his dagger and musket on the ground, ignoring Aeno on the side, and once again waved his fist at the armored ghost floating in mid-air, shouting angrily, "Don't try to take her unless you kill me!"

"Stupid. Threost snorted coldly, and no longer kept his hand, and the pitch-black sharp scimitar appeared in front of Morin's neck like a nightmare, and the young man was about to be beheaded.

But as if in some obstacle, the scimitar was blocked.

A black light rushed out of Merin's shoulder, turning into a vicious gargoyle in the air, flapping its massive wings, and the black scimitar was blocked by the gargoyle's arm, stopping halfway. And Maureen was pushed aside and away from the battle.

Seeing that the gargoyle was finally summoned, the boy breathed a sigh of relief.

Aeno walked up to help Morin, she clutched the old dagger in one hand, and said in a low voice: "The gargoyle should not be able to resist, Threost is a ghost captain who is very appreciated by the blood staff, he is very powerful, but anyway, thank you, wait, if there is a chance......"

"There's a way," Merlin interrupted the girl, looking earnestly into her brown eyes, "there's a way, don't worry." ”

He looked up at the sky, where the gargoyle and Captain Ghost were fighting in mid-air, but the gargoyle's situation was clearly not optimistic.

Its strong arms and sharp teeth couldn't touch the agile ghost, and every time the jet-black scimitar slashed through the gargoyle's body, it left a deep scar, and the gargoyle's powerful recovery ability was useless.

I only heard Threost say slowly: "The legendary magical mechanical creatures of Ashen Valley are nothing more than that, no wonder the dead will eventually rise." ”

He exerted his strength suddenly, and for a moment it seemed as if he was in several directions, and there was a stabbing sound, and the gargoyle suddenly stopped moving.

Slowly, the gargoyle in mid-air broke his arm, then another arm, then wings, legs, and head. In a short time, it was completely torn apart, falling to the ground with a clatter, petrified into scattered parts.

Threost floated to the ground, thrust his scimitar back into his waist, and said coldly, "That's enough, the farce is over here." Go ahead and get that little vampire and kill the boy. ”

The two walking corpse warriors drew their swords, shivering in the darkness, and slowly approached the two.

But at such a juncture, Morin laughed: "I think about it, I think about it, what would I say if it was Marcas......"

The boy struggled to raise his head, trying to pronounce it in his nose, and said contemptuously in the aristocratic tone of Marcus, "Ignorant ghost, have you not read the books, how sad it is, do you think that this is your remote land of the dead?

"You wouldn't be naïve enough to think," the boy continued, "that you could fight in this city, right?"

With that, his gaze turned to the end of the street.

I saw a small group of soldiers, soldiers in light armor and spears in hand, led by a swordsman in heavy armor, hurrying here. The soldiers were lined up in two neat columns, and their movements were as uniform as if they were one person, and at first glance they were the elite of long-trained training.

At the same time, the swordsman who led the team had already shouted: "Those in front, stop your current movements immediately, leave your weapons with both hands, and stand in place, otherwise you will be regarded as an enemy by Zororumi!"
