Chapter 5 Upgrades
The closer you get to the battlefield, the stronger the smell of the roast and the carrion, and a few burning bushes provide enough light for Unas to hide behind a large tree, cautiously poking his head out to check.
More than a dozen undead creatures surrounded Gordon, several of them were alive like "lickers" in "Resident Evil", they had no skin, all their muscles and blood vessels were exposed to the air, and with the continuous beating, dirty saliva splashed down the two rows of fangs, and Unas did not dare to look closely again, for fear of spitting out.
And Gordon is actually a warrior of demonic and martial arts, the golden-red flame is attached to Gordon's sword, and he dances the pillar of fire in his hand to attack the enemy who dares to step forward.
It's a pity that it's always a little bit closer, the "Licker" is very flexible, can change direction in the air, and can always dodge the attack of the pillar of fire at a moment's notice.
Gordon suddenly shouted, and a golden-red flame was launched from the sword, but unfortunately the flame still missed, grazed the thigh of the "Licker", and exploded on one of the zombies on the periphery, and blew away the two hapless skeleton soldiers with a "boom".
Three small dots of light floated over and merged into Unas's body, and he could eat experience without doing anything, and it seemed that he was in a team with Gordon.
Although the mixed experience is very cool, if you can't kill the main force of the attack, "Licker", when Gordon's physical strength is exhausted, everyone will be finished together.
Unas eagerly looked around, but did not find the black-robed man riding a skeletal warhorse.
Gordon had said before that they would only have a chance of winning if they killed the Necrons' controllers.
Unas opened the skill bar and turned on "Sense the Undead" (showing the location of all nearby undead on a miniature map) to try his luck, this small spell didn't take much energy, and he could afford it.
A small three-dimensional thumbnail appeared in his mind, the dense red dots in front of him were the undead besieging Gordon, the green dot in the center of the map represented himself, and there was actually a red dot directly above the green dot!
Unas was startled and looked up suddenly, the impenetrable canopy of the tree blocked his view, could it be that the necromancer was hiding in this tree?
He held his breath and didn't dare to make any sound, "Sensing the Undead" could only show a radius of 100 meters, should you go around elsewhere?
But a strong hunch told him that the necromancer was on top of the tree.
Gotta get noticed!
"The necromancer is here!!"
Unas shouted with all his might, thrust his sword into the canopy.
The blade stabbed several side branches, and a scream came from the treetops at the same time, and the leaves flew flying, and a red figure fell.
Got it wrong?
"Humph!" A sneer came from behind him, Unas hurriedly turned around, and a black-robed man with a deadwood staff was slowly floating down to the ground.
There are two people hiding in this tree? It's really romantic.
The effect of the "levitation technique" made the necromancer's appearance very gorgeous, but Unas was not suppressed, there was nothing to be afraid of being a close mage, he raised his feet and wanted to rush over and hack this pretending to death.
There was a sudden sound behind him, the wind pressure hit, Unas tried to dodge, but unfortunately it was too late, the terrible metal impact exploded from his left shoulder, he only felt a sharp pain, his body was beaten and staggered, and he lost his balance.
The enemy behind him did not let go of this opportunity, and Unas suffered a second blow in the back of his heart, he was violently shaken, his thick plate armor was smashed and deformed, his vest was in severe pain, and hot blood surged up his throat, and he fell to the ground with a "bang".
He lowered his head and spat out a mouthful of old blood, and turned over, the red figure who had fallen from the tree earlier was slowly approaching him with a long-handled war hammer, and the Beifeng Legion soldier who had been transformed into a zombie made him suffer enough damage.
Using this time, the black-robed mage quickly completed a spell, and a green light shot from the deadwood staff in his hand towards Unas fell to the ground.
Unas had no way to hide, only to suffer, the green light hit his chest, the sky swirled, his body was completely paralyzed, and almost even the strength to breathe was taken away by this spell, and now he completely lost the ability to resist.
Can you run away and resurrect the corpse after death? He thought desperately.
"Hehe," the black-robed mage smirked, and the next words made Unas feel that it was better to die, "Young man is awesome, he can even see through my invisibility technique, I want to play with you......"
Before the word "play" could be uttered, a wave of heat hit, and golden-red flames pierced the darkness.
Gordon came so fast!
Seeing that the flames were about to hit the black-robed mage, the mage hurriedly recited a spell, a light blue shield enveloped his body, and the flames exploded a foot from his back, and the shockwave of the explosion shook him to the ground.
The blue mana shield negated most of the damage, but the necromancer's constitution was too weak, and the explosion still bleed from the corner of his mouth, and he hurriedly commanded the red-clothed zombies around him to meet the charging Gordon.
Gordon's condition didn't look good, he didn't know where he lost his helmet, his face was covered in blood, his long pale hair was almost red with blood, and he paid a lot of money to break out of the encirclement, although he killed a ghoul, and his own head was almost shattered.
The flames attached to the sword body became very weak, and the flame slash just now almost exhausted the last of his elemental energy.
The feeling of weakness that hit him like a tide, the new and old pain in the back of his head and chest, the ghouls chasing after him, and yesterday's comrades in front of him, now, he can't care about anything, only move forward!
The necromancer must die!
"Baa~~" The white smoke dispersed, and the skeleton war horse with purple flames under its feet was summoned by the black-robed mage.
Oops, this guy is going to run away!
Gordon was temporarily blocked by Wang Da Hammer, and let this guy run away and it would be completely finished.
Lying limp on the ground, Unas ignored the pain of his torn head, and summoned the last bit of energy to the bone horse with a long-chosen skill, "Transcendent Evil" (forcing the undead or demonic targets to flee).
A purple light shrouded the head of the undead war horse, and with a "bleat", the skeleton war horse ran out eight feet away.
"You!" The black robe who had just raised his leg and was about to mount the horse was dumbfounded, and he waved his staff in a panic, trying to summon the war horse back.
There was no chance, he suddenly felt that the sky was spinning, and his head wrapped in a black hood flew into the sky, and his body was already separated.
Gordon dealt with the sledgehammer in time and mercilessly decapitated this cunning and cruel old pervert.
The golden points of light merged into Unas's body, and the melodious music sounded in his ears, and in an instant, the golden light flourished, and the heat flowed all over his body, and all the pain and fatigue were swept away in an instant.
It's finally upgraded!
Unaston was resurrected with full blood, stood up with a hundred times the spirit, checked the lower attributes, strength +2, agility +1, constitution +2, energy +3, paladin level 21, experience 5%, and also obtained a skill point, he did not hesitate to learn one of the strongest life-saving skills of Warcraft - Holy Shield (makes the paladin immune to all damage and spell attacks, lasts 12 seconds, has a cooldown of 1 hour, commonly known as "invincible").
Gordon was shocked by the golden light coming out of Unas's body, but he didn't ask much, and said in a hoarse voice: "The battle is not over yet, treat me quickly!" ”
Unas cast three Holy Light Techniques on him in a row, but with little effect, blood still kept flowing from Gordon's head, and the first-level Holy Light Technique could only relieve his pain, not heal this level of wounds.
The stench hits, and the ghouls who are in hot pursuit finally arrive at the battlefield.
Although their owners are dead, the necromancer's last orders are still valid, and it is the undead instinct to attack the living.
Skeletons and zombies are the lower undead, frightened by the light, and may scatter and flee, but the ghoul's thirst for raw meat will not fade so easily.
Unas quickly made up the "King's Blessing" to himself and Gordon, and the three "lickers", that is, ghouls, began to circle around them, they all had some burn marks on their bodies more or less, and the humans in front of them were also their jealous existence.
Unas opened the "Righteous Seal" and "Piety Aura" in turn, and a faint white light enveloped him again, and a silver shield-shaped aura appeared at Gordon's and his feet.
At this time, the faint flame attached to Gordon's sword was finally completely extinguished, which meant that Gordon had exhausted his fire power, and the ghouls were ready to move, but they still did not dare to pounce, it seemed that they lacked the control of the necromancer, and they tended to protect themselves.
It was too disadvantageous to drag it down, he was seriously injured and the energy of the flames was exhausted, and Gordon no longer had the ability to launch an active attack.
Unas couldn't help it, and if he didn't start it, Gordon's blood would run dry.
"Judgment" (unleashing the energy of a holy seal spell that deals some damage to the target), Unas suddenly activated, and a golden light shot out of his sword, hitting a ghoul, it screamed, and the place where it was hit was scorched, and the energy of the holy light burned its exposed flesh.
This lit the fuse, and the three ghouls pounced on them at once.
Gordon raised his sword to meet him, and Unas proceeded to unleash the skill "Devotion" (pouring divine energy into the ground beneath the paladin's feet, dealing divine damage to all enemies who enter the area).
The golden light spread under his feet, quickly covering the ground within a radius of 20 meters, and the three ghouls let out a scream in unison, and their bodies were all stunned.
"Chance!" , Gordon faced the ghoul who rushed to the front without hesitation, but Unas took a breath, although the benefits brought by the upgrade made him in full state, but the continuous release of multiple skills also made him unable to raise his strength for a while.
"Whew!" , Gordon pierced the ghoul in the abdomen with a sword, and the other two ghouls were enraged and pounced on him at the same time.
The pierced ghoul hugged Gordon's sword tightly, Gordon gritted his teeth and shouted, trying his best to recapture the weapon, but with a "snap", the heavy legion-style greatsword actually broke from the middle, but the other two ghouls had already pounced in front of him, and Gordon was in a desperate situation for a while.
"Transcendent evil", Unas used this skill again, and it actually worked again, purple light fell, and a ghoul fled like a headless fly.
But the other ghoul's claw had pierced Gordon's shoulder, and the vicious kiss bit his throat, and Gordon threw away the broken sword, his red-gloved left fist blasting out in a desperate way, filling the ghoul's fangy bloody mouth.
"Boom" exploded, sparks shot out, flesh and blood splattered, Gordon's punch was like a bomb, the ghoul's head was blown to pieces, and the charred headless corpse fell to the ground twitching slightly.
Gordon was also blown away by the explosion and fell to the ground, the ghoul he had impaled was not dead, it struggled to get up with the broken sword that pierced its chest, and Unas rushed forward and chopped off its head with a sword.
The enemy in front of him was cleared, but Gordon's condition looked bad, it could only be described as bruises, the armor of his left hand was crumbling and scattered, his arm was twisted and seemed to be broken, and his right shoulder was constantly oozing blood, he struggled, but he didn't even have the strength to stand up.
"Crisis...... Not yet...... In the past," Gordon reminded with a dying breath.
