Chapter 164: Twists and Turns
"Don't run!" Richard led everyone into an alley, stopping.
The magic of the two generals is limited, and it is simply unrealistic to expect them to use spells to delay all the time. Moreover, the endurance of a super-heavy mount like the Earth Walking Dragon is far from outstanding. It is better to waste all your physical energy on endless running, than to fight desperately.
Rather than leaving fate to unknowable luck, the people of Alpine Castle prefer to take it into their own hands. It's not recklessness, it's self-confidence, incomparably strong self-confidence.
"Is the holy water that was given to you in the morning still there?" the lord clenched his fists.
"In. The voices that responded to him were lazy. It was clear that the situation was critical and a strong enemy was approaching, but the faces of the soldiers of the Alpine Fort were giggling, and there was no tension in sight, as if they were on an outing.
"the handlebars!" Richard punched.
"the handlebars!" this time it was immediately a cloud of responders.
Bottles of concentrated holy water were opened, and the warriors smeared the viscous liquid on their blades like a maintenance oil. After the holy water was exposed to the air, the divine power contained in it began to slowly evaporate, forming a pale golden shimmer visible to the naked eye.
If it is said that in the night, the warriors of the High Mountain Castle holding glowing blades are like warriors of the Kingdom of God. Then, the zombie warriors that followed were definitely from purgatory, a symbol of the dark side.
The hoarse whispers and roars are connected into one piece, converging into a cold and weird tune that makes people feel creepy!
The distance between the two sides quickly closes, and a head-on duel ensues.
Richard tried to slash directly without holy water, and after slaying the dragon and cutting through the armor, it actually rubbed a spark on the flesh. You must know that the sword of the lord of the mountain castle was only slashed from the head to the navel instead of the whole person being separated left and right, which can definitely be regarded as a symbol of the strength of the heavy gold and the naked body.
However, the holy water was indeed fierce enough to restrain them, and even if they were rubbed slightly, a scorching smell would immediately waft away.
The lord didn't pay much attention to it, after all, the zombie warrior was far from the biggest threat to the castle, and the undead dragoon above his head was. He saw the timing when the undead dragon was about to pounce, took a spare battle axe, and directly threw off his arms and slashed out.
Driven by a powerful force, the heavy tomahawk accelerated to an astonishing point, breaking through the air and setting off a seeping scream, and the momentum was extremely amazing!
It's a pity that the head is really lacking, and I didn't even catch a single hair, and went straight to the moon.
The rank of the undead dragoon is many times higher than that of the walking corpse, and the intelligence is completely incomparable. Although it didn't hit it directly, it immediately realized that the living creature on the ground had the ability to pose a threat to it, and became noticeably cautious.
This has risen to a safe height and refuses to fall easily. But at the same time, he did not leave, but circled around the periphery looking for opportunities, ready to move.
Richard's heart sank, and the situation he feared most still appeared.
Aside from himself, there was absolutely no one in the entire Alpine Fort who could pose a threat to the dragon, not even a dead dragon. But once the lord was forced to devote all his energy to defending against the dragon, these hundreds of people would be crucified in place and unable to move.
"How can the people who walk on the ground fight with the ones who fly in the sky? Richard smiled bitterly. He swore that when he went back this time, he would have to get a mount that could go to the sky.
"Your Excellency. Dracula's eyes couldn't help but drift to Chiqiu, as one of the few people who knew the inside story of the 'Sky and Thunder Ring', he had also learned the secret of Chiqiu's background, "From the information I found before, that ring can give the Titan Imperial Qi and the ability of the thunder and lightning element. ”
"That means, can you make me fly?" Richard pulled the ring out of his pocket.
"Hmm. Dracula nodded vigorously.
"And what is going to do with this thing?" the lord looked at it over and over again, clueless.
"It's simple, just ......," Dracula said halfway through, when suddenly a crossbow bolt "grew" from the left side of his chest. "Ho-ho-......" he spurted blood from his mouth and collapsed to the ground trembling.
There are archers among the zombie warriors, but the arrows are not much of a threat to the heavily armored warriors of the mountain castle. However, Dracula only wore a light leather armor in order to run errands before, and his defense was not enough at all.
The arrow entered the back of his heart, and then came out of his chest, and you didn't have to look to know that the heart in his chest must have pierced!
The lord reached out to catch Dracula's body, and with the support of his fighting spirit, he could hold on for a while. Hendra tried his best to finish the second half of the sentence with his lips, but he couldn't do it anymore, and only spat out a cloud of caviar-like blood foam from his mouth.
"This ......"
The method of using the Sky and Thunder Ring was known to Dracula himself, and Richard hadn't thought about it before, so he hadn't asked. But with such a fatal wound as a broken heart, even if the Pope of the Holy Light Church is brought in, it remains to be said whether it can be saved, not to mention that there are no such conditions at all now.
"Where's the Destiny Stone!" the lord's mind has always been very active.
He also remembered that in the small town of Chakesh against the Blood Knights, he accidentally harvested a complete Destiny Stone. And using the Magic Stone of Destiny has to cut off the heart, and replacing the original heart function with the magic stone is completely suitable for Dracula's situation at the moment.
Richard flicked another battle axe, and once again startled the undead dragoons back to the swaying dragoon. He didn't know how many times the same technique would work, but if he kept doing this, he would sooner or later be found to be on the wrong track.
Hurt, who had been in charge of logistics lately, had stopped shooting arrows and stepped back a few steps to allow another centaur to fill the void.
"My lord, I remembered, in the logistics carriage. Hurt's words almost made Richard angry - the logistics carriage was still in their original camp, and they didn't take it with them when they left!
"Damn, who the put that!"
"Boss, you put it. Gunther looked at his lord as he slashed at the zombie warrior and said with great seriousness, "I used to be in your hands when I was in Chakesh, but then you thought it was too troublesome to march, so you put all your brains in the carriage." ”
Gunther became more and more energetic, and continued: "When I left just now, I asked if I wanted to pull the carriage, and you said no. He also said that even if our mountain fort was robbed, we would definitely not be hungry. ”
The lord was reminded of this, and he remembered it all.
"Isn't this fate?" Richard, who had never believed in any gods, couldn't help but think like this.
The undead dragoon in the sky swooped down again, and even though he knew that the monster might be tempting, Richard had no choice but to throw his battle axe again. The standoff continues, but it is clear that it is unlikely to last.
"Isn't it just a magic stone, I'll go to the camp again and get it back. Gunther took off his helmet and grinned at Richard, his teeth dazzlingly white.
