Chapter 118: An Ambush Outside the Forest of Rest
"Da ......" to the dense and rhythmic sound of horses' hooves, a snow-white bone carriage galloped quickly on the moon-white stone avenue in the Forest of Rest.
The dark, tall figure of the Tree of Rest swept swiftly across the carriage. These trees of rest are pure black, with no leaves on them, only a straight trunk that is several feet tall and a horizontal branch that grows at the top of the canopy.
The bone wagon was fast because it was in the safety of the Forest of Rest. With the protection of the barrier and the strict restraint of the undead kings, no fighting is allowed in this resting forest, which is located at the entrance to the entrance between the outer undead realm and this special territory.
Unless, you're brave enough to risk offending more than twenty undead kings at the same time, and defy the rule of no fighting in the Forest of Scarcity! But obviously, this is undoubtedly an act of seeking death!
The high-ranking lich in the carriage, Darel, held the soul wood box in his arms tightly, and the blood-red soul light in his eyes gradually brightened, as if revealing a feeling that gradually became solemn. Because after most of the day's running, the bone carriage was about to gallop out of this forest of rest.
Outside the Forest of Sabbath is a fairly vast area of plains. The carriage of the bones on this flat plain was not much different from the road of the moon white stone in the forest of rest. But it is clear that now the speed of the white bone carriage is at least doubled.
The eight Death Knights who followed closely around the carriage got closer at this time, and the eight high-ranking lichs above the carriage also lowered their flying heights. A group of undead creatures, including the high-level undead lich Darel, all put on a posture of full alert!
This is not the first time that the high-level undead lich Darel has been working in this special territory. In fact, more than a hundred years ago, it also represented the Lich King Bardell entering this special territory to find His Majesty the Undead King Stere.
It wasn't a pleasant experience on the road. It and its men suffered a total of three accidents and five attacks on the way from the Forest of Rest to the location of the Undead King Sterr in the northeast corner. By the time they finally reached the location of the Undead King Stell, two Death Knights and a High Lich had been completely destroyed along the way, and a Death Knight and a High Lich had been severely damaged.
Just from the encounter of the high-level undead lich Darel on the road, it can be seen that in this special area, under the general calm, there are countless undercurrents that are surging wildly!
It was precisely because of the difficult travel experience more than a hundred years ago that the high-level undead lich Darel at this time seemed more and more cautious. It stood up directly in the carriage, and under the wide black ** magic cloak, a strong magical aura surged from time to time. It's a sign of being ready to strike.
Just after the bone carriage that had passed through the Forest of Rest had been running for more than an hour, the high-level undead lich in the carriage, Darel, suddenly had a blood-red soul light in his eyes. With a tremor of the black cloak, the Grim Reaper's gaze attack magic was immediately released, and a pale ray directly pierced the bone wall of the carriage on the left side of the carriage, shooting straight into the clearing in the direction of the left side of the carriage.
On the seemingly empty flat ground, under the shot of this pale ray, a wave of energy fluctuated out of thin air. In the pale light, a vague figure flashed.
With this pale ray attack, the ambusher, who had apparently used some kind of invisible magic item, was forced to manifest.
The reason why it is certain that the ambusher is using invisible magic items is because only under the influence of invisible magic items will there be a restriction that they cannot use their own defense magic and other defense magic items. As a result, the ambusher faced the pale ray attack of the Grim Reaper's gaze, and had to use another defensive magic item on his body, resulting in the failure of the invisible magic item.
With the invisibility of the magic item deactivated, the true face of the ambusher was revealed: a handsome young man with blond hair, pale blue eyes, and a tall body. He was dressed in armor that emitted a pale white glow, and he also held a large sword that was shiny white all over. Obviously, looking at this image, this young man should be a high-ranking warrior.
The high-ranking undead lich Darel floating out of the carriage saw the ambusher clearly, and couldn't help but let out a terrible roar of rage: "You nasty, damned cathar knights again!" ”
Before the voice fell, the high-level undead lich Darel activated the magic equipment on his body one after another. In an instant, all kinds of low-level and mid-level magic quickly flew towards the young blonde warrior known as the Aphar Knight.
At the same time, six of the eight Death Knights were still tightly guarding the perimeter of the carriage, and only two Death Knights drove their hips to rush towards the blonde warrior. And the high-ranking lichs in the air above their heads were also on alert, and had no intention of attacking the blonde warriors in unison.
This is the arrangement of the high-ranking undead lich Darrell. It's not worth using too much force against an aphar knight. It is more wary of enemies that are still hiding in the shadows and have not yet appeared.
Sure enough, just as the magic attack and the two Death Knights flew towards the blonde warrior. A faint wave of magic came from the right rear and directly in front of the bone carriage at the same time. Obviously, this is the real ambush launched!
The high-level undead lich Darel's usual caution has given it the means and strength to deal with these ambushes. A pure black chain of guardianship quickly spread, protecting the carriage and all his subordinates.
This extremely strong chain of guardians is not the magic unleashed by the high-level undead lich Darel himself. Darel would not lightly expend a large amount of his soul energy to unleash this large-scale, high-intensity protective magic. This is a protective spell released by a precious one-time magic item bestowed by the Lich King Badair.
This kind of magic props that can only be used once are very precious, and they are generally not used lightly. And the high-level undead lich Darel did not hesitate to inspire and use it. Because of Darel's keen intuition and rich experience, it realized that this ambush attack was not simple.
The ambushers who appeared in front were three warriors who were also wearing white light armor, while the ambushers who appeared in the back right were two cultists wearing holy light robes.
Sensing all the opponents, the high-level undead lich Darel immediately affirmed the accuracy of his soul's intuition. This ambush enemy lineup is quite tough.
