Chapter 107: Swordsman
At night, inside the dwarven village.
The dwarves who had been stationed on the watchtowers inside the village returned to the camp to rest, and in their place were elves with better visibility and better reconnaissance skills at night.
Necromancers are very fond of attacking through the darkness of the night, and this is known to both dwarves and elves. It is the night that should be strengthened more than the bright day.
With the aid of the elves, the previous attacks of the necromancers were repulsed one after another.
During this time, the necromancer seemed to have fallen completely silent and did not launch any attacks on the dwarven village, but both the dwarves and elves knew that this was only a harbinger of an even more powerful attack.
The dwarves in the village may still be worried about not being able to withstand the more powerful necromancers, but the elves on the watchtower have received the news that if they hold out for a few more days, the powerful court mages will arrive here and establish a space-time gate inside the village to help the dwarves and ordinary people evacuate.
The successive pampering and the long absence of a battle have made the high-level of the elves lose their keen sense of war.
The elves did not anticipate the start of the war in time, and although necromancers had previously attacked villages in Eri, the elves were convinced that this was just a petty fight at the apprentice level.
No matter how many omen are revealed, most of the elves still do not believe that war will come, and still maintain their original life trajectory, even if a few visionary elves have repeatedly raised this point, but to no avail.
It wasn't until the necromancer breached the towns on the border of Eli one after another that the elves were convinced of the arrival of war, which also made the entire elven royal family feel fiercely offended.
Even if the elves quickly organize a counterattack, they also lose the best opportunity to guide the border dwellers to evacuate.
The current border is full of necromancers, and it will be extremely dangerous to guide the inhabitants to evacuate. But the elves on the watchtower were sure that once the court mages arrived, they would be able to expel the necromancers from the border.
Although they were on guard in the long night, the spirits on the watchtower did not distract or converse, but were attentive to their surroundings.
At this moment, the sound of weapons clashing appeared in the ears of the elves on the watchtower, and these elves looked in the direction from which the sound came.
In front, two figures were engaged in a fierce battle, one was dressed in a single coat and held an iron sword in his hand, his body flickered, bringing out countless sword lights, while the other was wearing a black robe, and he was waving the claws in his hand at the swordsman one after another.
Around these two figures, there are also traces of many undead creatures.
The undead creatures were clearly helping the black-robed man to attack the swordsman on the other side. Through this situation, the elves on the watchtower instantly confirmed the camp of the two people.
At this point, the swordsman grasped the weapon and slashed his sword upwards at the same time. In the process of dodging, the other party completely exposed his face under the black robe to the elves on the watchtower.
Due to his excellent eyesight, the elf on the watchtower could recognize at a glance that the man in black robe was a vampire.
During the time that the elves confirmed, the battle between the vampire and the swordsman had obviously changed, and under the full force of the vampire's attack, the swordsman was unable to parry for a while, and multiple blood marks appeared on his body.
As the vampire's attack struck again, seeing that the swordsman could not avoid it, he had to stab his sword and force a counterattack, a magical arrow shot at the vampire from the top of the watchtower.
In order to dodge the magic arrow, the vampire in front of the swordsman instantly turned into a cloud of black mist, and then, countless bats rushed towards the swordsman.
The blades in the swordsman's hands swung one after another, and with the flash of the sword light, many bats were killed in an instant. However, there were a large number of these bats around, and coupled with the speed of flight, there were still a large number of bats gathered around the swordsman.
On the top of the watchtower, another fireball shot in time, and the explosion generated by the fireball killed a large number of bats in an instant.
At the same time, the impact of the fireball explosion also allowed the swordsman to safely escape the attack range of the bat.
Due to the successive attacks of magic, the remaining bats did not continue to attack the swordsman, but quickly flew backwards, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
After the bat departed, the swordsman did not choose to pursue the bat, but quickly killed the surrounding undead creatures.
Under the attack of the swordsman, the walking corpses around him could not even have any room to resist, and they were killed in an instant. In the course of the battle, the swordsman showed his superb swordsmanship.
And this scene was completely watched by the elves on the watchtower.
During the swordsman's battle, the elves on the watchtower chose to help the swordsman fight the vampires, but the elves did not know the origin of the swordsman himself.
At this time, seeing the swordsman's swordsmanship, the doubts of these elves were dispelled a lot. In their minds, it was impossible for a necromancer to master such a superb swordsmanship.
It didn't take long for the swordsman to kill the undead creatures around him.
As the last undead creature fell to the ground, the swordsman also used all his strength, and the blade in his hand was stuck in the ground, holding the iron sword with his hand, and began to gasp rapidly.
As he breathed, blood dripped down the swordsman's side. In the original battle against the vampires, although the elves on the watchtower came to their aid, the swordsman was still seriously injured.
In front of the elves on the watchtower, the swordsman quickly sat down, then tore a strip of cloth from his cloth and began to bandage the wounds on his body.
In the process of bandaging, due to the recklessness of his movements, a large amount of blood flowed from the wound on the swordsman's body that was scratched by the vampire, but the swordsman did not say a word, just tied the wound area tightly with a cloth.
During the whole process, the elves above the watchtower did not show any signs, just stood there and observed. Although none of the elves spoke out to ask the swordsman, the expressions on their faces undoubtedly showed that they were a little unbearable.
After briefly treating his wounds, the swordsman stood up and went to the place where the battle had been taking place, collecting the arrows around him one by one.
The swordsman placed the arrows in a handful at the entrance of the village, and nodded to the elves on the sentry tower paper as a token of gratitude.
Then the swordsman turned and tried to walk into the dark forest.
The direction chosen by the swordsman was the same as where the vampire had left.
"Wait a minute!"
At this time, seeing the swordsman trying to leave, the elf on the sentry tower finally spoke up and shouted such a sentence to the back of the swordsman.
