Chapter 13: Death Knight!

The camp began to be tense and busy, the soldiers formed formations, the knights and horses exchanged feelings, and the logistics troops were also transported non-stop.

Murphy divided the eighty knights into two teams, one team of fifty knights and the earth mage led by Captain Ford, arranged in a wedge-shaped battle formation, used to attack the undead formation, and the other team of thirty people, arranged in a phalanx, to protect Murphy in the middle, to protect himself and mend the knife, under the command of Murphy himself; after two waves of knightly impact, there will be a clearing, at this time, the Knight Colin will command the infantry to protect the wounded and non-combatants to quickly pass through and achieve a breakthrough.

Plan to pass!

Although he lost all his baggage, as long as he had money, he could buy twice as many supplies in Rhine City, which was enough to support the needs of Remlosburg.

The ranks were quickly lined up, and although they had only suffered heavy casualties last night, the army quickly regained its morale and combat effectiveness thanks to Murphy's mobilization.

"First team obeys!" said the Ford knight, holding his rifle aloft, while the other knights clenched the reins with the tip of their spear.

The horses neighed restlessly, digging the ground with their hooves, ready to charge.

"Attack!" the knight of Ford raised his spear, the reins of his hand tightened, and the horse suddenly raised its front hooves, neighed, and then ran quickly, followed by the other knights.

Fifty-one war horses rushed unstoppably towards the north with a thousand horses.

Colorful fighting energy gathered at the tip of the knight's spear, and the moment the tip of the spear touched the undead, lightning flashed and sparks flew everywhere.

It was still the first Knight Captain Ford to come into contact with the undead, and his thunder fighting spirit was gathered on the tip of the gun and the front armor of the war horse, and he didn't need to make any movements at all, a few zombies were directly hung on the tip of the gun, and there were also a few bones stuck in the gap in the front armor of the war horse.

The same is true of Charles Knight next to him, the blazing fighting spirit lingers around the tip of the gun, from a distance, the fiery red tip of the gun is like a red-hot soldering iron, and the zombies that were hit were directly burned to ashes by this fighting flame.

The cavalry of fifty people directly broke through this part of the undead and successfully broke out.

Fortunately, it is daytime, and the undead's desire to attack is not strong.

The successful breakthrough of the first team of knights gave great encouragement to the warriors who were still in the encirclement.

"Second team attack!" Murphy waved his staff, condensing a blazing locking magic "Scorch" and a newly learned order inscription "Aggravated" on it, and then pulled the reins, and even men and horses rushed out.

There are not many knights in the second team, and they don't need to be as fast as the first team, and their job is to protect the prince and clear out the remnants of the enemy.

Thirty-one people, including Murphy, kept waving their spears, staffs, and half-swords in their hands, and finally cleared the bushes, oh no, now it can be said that the ground is flat.

When the first team broke through, the earth mage was constantly clearing the trees and leveling the land in front of them.

It made it easier for the knight to move in the bushes.

"The third team is leaving!" Knight Colin shouted as he waved his knight's sword.

A team of spearmen and shields consciously lined up on either side of the line to keep the Crispy ranged soldiers safe, while the other team was followed by mages to protect the wounded, non-combatants, and royal grants.

From time to time, a few zombie skeletons and the like would rush up, but the sun greatly weakened their combat effectiveness, and with the cooperation of the spear and shield man, they were killed on the spot without a few moves.

The whole process took less than half an hour, and all three teams broke through the encirclement and returned to the official road.

Everyone's face was filled with the joy of the aftermath of the catastrophe.

But at that moment, a heavy fog suddenly began to rise all around.

The trees in front of the official road suddenly withered and blackened, and only the breathtaking sound of horses' hooves could be heard, and the more than 1,000 people were all standing on the spot.

Two tall figures stepped out of the mist.

They rode skeletal horses, one of them with an evil glint in his eyes, and his skin was as pale as snow and very handsome, but unfortunately half of his skull was missing, and his rotting brain was a mess.

The other, with most of his face rotten and bare bones, one eye was well preserved and shining with that evil light, and the other had no eyeballs, and the dark sockets danced with a dark green soul fire.

The two figures came out of the mist and stopped not far away, their horses constantly scraping the ground with their hooves, raising wisps of dark green flames.

"It's the Death Knight!" shouted one of the well-informed knights in despair, and the entire army began to panic.

"Isn't Heaven going to keep us alive?"

"I haven't seen my baby born yet!"

"Odelan, great god of order, save your faithful believers!"

Not only ordinary soldiers, but even brave knights, all they can do at this time is pray to the gods.

Murphy was also desperate at this time, he hadn't been long after he had just passed through, was he going to die here?

He had seen descriptions of Death Knights in ancient books, who were once paladins who fought for the people, but after their deaths they were transformed by the Lich, and the goodness in their hearts was transformed into infinite evil, and they became murderous and tyrannical.

Moreover, the strength of these death knights is extremely powerful, and their strength is comparable to that of a fifth-level ace warrior or magic master.

There was once a death knight massacre in the Russell Kingdom, and the town of 100,000 people was left overnight, including some powerful mages and warriors, but in the hands of the death knight, there were no less than two moves.

It's just three death knights, but they slaughtered a town with a population of nearly 100,000!

However, such a terrifying existence, there are two of them here at once!

Dispatching two Death Knights to wipe out our 1,000-odd men is really a cannon to fight mosquitoes.

Murphy thought to himself and swallowed.

Many of the warriors were on the verge of collapse under the pressure of the Death Knights, and the two Death Knights did nothing but sit on their horses and look at this place with evil eyes, and the deterrence was enough to break people.

Quiet, suffocating quiet, the breath of death in the air oppresses the breathless......

"Ahh

A young soldier completely broke down and rushed towards the two death knights in front of him with a spear in his hand.

"Bastard, you come back to me!" Ford, who was barely able to keep his senses, scolded.

However, it was too late, and the Death Knight, whose face was rotten like a zombie, turned his head, and the light in his left eye locked on the rushing soldier.

The light flickered slightly, and the soldier could not move, his eyes full of fear.

A grayish-black mist drifted towards the soldier, enveloping him directly.

The soldier wanted to shout, but he couldn't, his body was out of his control.

The soldier's body was eroded by the gray and black mist, and the flesh and blood continued to wither and fall off, turning into a puddle of black liquid, and even the skeleton was corroded into black ashes, melting in the puddle of liquid.

The whole process lasted less than twenty seconds, and a large living person turned into a puddle of liquid in full view of everyone.

As described in the Book of the Dead: At the behest of the Lich, the Death Knight came out of Hell with the breath of death, leading the legions of the undead to corrupt every living creature they could see, the land they trampled on was tainted with ghostly fire, everything they touched was corrupted by the breath of death, and they came with the breath of death, and they returned with death.

Wait! Lich!Murphy thought of something.
