"Something's coming." Berelith held the magic guide in her arms vigilantly, her light brown eyes looking in the direction of the sound in the sockets under her eyebrows.

Koto's fortress shield took cover at the little girl's side as soon as the movement came, and the rest of the Thorn Squad were all ready to fight—but there were not a few trees in the forest in sight at their feet, not so much woodland as a clearing in the forest, causing the fog in the air to become hazy again.

The sound of hooves in the fog soon stretched out a path of flames, and a skeletal horse with a burning skeleton and a skeleton knight riding on its back immediately came into view, and behind the skeleton knight was about twenty skeleton soldiers who had been scattered by Dorothy's magic missiles before.

The flames on the bone horse's body were normal red, in stark contrast to the two dark green soul fires in his eye sockets. Its owner, the skeletal knight who sat on its back with his legs apart, was dressed in charcoal-black, full-body metal armor, and was surrounded by the same conspicuous fire, while the soul fire beneath the helmet was a dark gold color.

"High-level undead." Able noticed the dark golden soul fire and immediately recognized the other party's status as an undead creature.

The high-level undead have free will, and from the moment they are successfully transformed by evil rituals, they are destined to become the masters of the low-level undead, such as the skeleton soldiers of Byron Tas, who cannot disobey the order to die, and the power of the law is engraved in the deepest part of their souls like the oath of a slave.

Urs's knowledge of undead creatures is also familiar. He wielded a cross-shaped two-handed greatsword, and the moment he saw the comer, he recognized it as the Necro Knight named Karpath, and the flamebone horse beneath his seat was, if not accidental, its Nightmare Beast mount - of course, the Nightmare Beast with the undead creature template.

"Give up your senseless resistance, lost travelers." The skeleton on the back of the Undead Nightmare pulled a curved scimitar from its sheath at its waist, and the off-hand grasped the reins of the mount, a blackened iron shield tied to its forearm.

The crowd looked at him, and he looked at the crowd, and a faint voice burst out of his leaky jaw like smoke: "Then bow down to the great Knight of Karpath, so that I may consider giving you an easy death without having to be tormented." ”

As he spoke, the undead Nightmare Beast took a few more steps forward under his control, the skeletal soldiers following him hobbling closely behind.

Karpas held his scimitar in his hand, the unsheathed blade of the blade glowing red as if flowing with a layer of lava like a membrane, and the silhouette of his figure appeared from the fog and approached the team little by little, thinking that his minions would add a few more-

Unexpectedly, in the vision provided to him by two dark golden soul fires in his eye sockets, the tallest thing, which looked like a steel golem, stood between the team and raised a hand to him, and his hard fingers quickly made a series of finger movements with a faint muffled voice.

Spell system 4 ring spell - Iva Black Tentacles!

Black tentacles stretched out from beneath the ground, but instead of breaking through the ground, they appeared as if they had appeared without warning, and suddenly the four hooves of the undead nightmare beast that looked like several whips slashed towards the necromantic rider on horseback.

Those pitch-black tentacles are elastic and flexible, and they try to grab Karpas from the horse in a grappling way! Abel's sudden first attack surprised the boss-level field boss that everyone was facing, and the burning scimitar hurriedly swung left and right in his hand, and the actions of the mechanical mage were naturally quietly instructed by Urs.

The Thorn Squad made some simple tactical gestures, and the black-haired young man released his left hand from the hilt of the Cross Greatsword the next second after recognizing Karpass, and turned his back behind him to signal to his companions.

The magically created black tentacles were not afraid of the Necroknight's scimitar, and then succeeded in pulling Karpas away from the skeleton-like Nightmare Beast. The skeleton soldiers who followed him froze for a moment, and then received orders from the Necro Knight and heard him roar in exasperation: "Very well, you brought it on yourself!" ”

Then he sat up and broke free of the black tentacles on his body—but it was Abel who then took the initiative to interrupt the continued effect of the spell—and the flaming scient-bladed long knife in his hand took advantage of the momentum, like a general's weapon, raised his arms high, and waved his fingers forward.

The skeletal soldiers who followed him immediately burst into an uproar, cascading strange screams accompanied by their seemingly unbalanced steps to launch a tooth-and-claw charge at the group.

Urs knew Karpas and knew that this undead blackguard was an arrogant megalomaniac, but his own strength was not necessarily enough to support his own spirit in front of his own group - so the black-haired young man arranged for Able to give him a surprise dismount first, and then his body clenched the giant sword in his hand and charged back against more than twenty skeleton soldiers who were killing him!

The young man moved quickly, the cloak of the Shadow Scales swaying long as his running form raised a grayish-black line in the hazy fog, and the line blurred his form as he sprinted, as if blending into the fog.

That's the spell-like ability that the Cloak of Shadowscales gave him—Shadow Strike!

Urs was confident that he would find a bit of unparalleled pleasure in the hordes of skeletal monsters, but he decided to get past the inconsequential minions and choose to kill Karpas himself, who was pulled down by Abel's Ava Black Tentacles.

As a result, his figure quickly passed over the skeleton soldiers as he was about to confront them head-on, and then reached Karpath's eyes, the cross-shaped +1 enchanted two-handed greatsword in his hand driven by power to slash at the Necro Knight's body!

Urs's attack came suddenly—Karpas was fortunate to react in time, and the deputy's iron shield was under the control of his arm as he tried to deflect the young man's slash from the side of the blade, a combat technique known as the "shield counter" that he had excelled in his mercenary career.

Use the convex round shield to find a sideways angle to bounce off the opponent's attack, and then take advantage of the opportunity to stab your opponent forward with the weapon of the main hand. In an emergency, he did not have time to re-mount, and he intended to defuse Urs's attack and counterattack in this way.

Unfortunately, the young man's weapon slashed at him with a terrifying force, and the brutality of that force completely ignored the obstacles of opportunism - Karpas was immediately shocked to find that although the iron round shield on his left arm had hit the back of the greatsword from the side direction at the right time, the sharp blade had no sign of deflection at all, and still fell down along the original trajectory of gravity.

"It's broken!" Karpas knew something was wrong, and before he could retract his left hand, he tilted his body, and his entire left arm was severed by the blade of the giant sword from his arm, and the iron sheet with the armor spun and flew out to the side.

Urs's greatsword slammed heavily on the ground, and his brown eyes hadn't yet turned into a furious blood-red, but his character attributes had clearly thrown the Necroknight boss a few streets apart in terms of strength.

If it weren't for the fact that the flames burning all over his body caused Karpas to tilt his body and lean towards the young man without dying, and the nightmare beast warhorse next to the necromantic knight then took action, raising the horse's hooves and kicking Urs quickly, the black-haired young man would definitely choose to send the necromantic knight in front of him to meet his Lord Des in one go.

Instead of immediately following the chopping action just now, a nimble roll was connected to dodge the fiery hooves of the undead nightmare beast.

At the same time, the rest of the Thorn Squad are engaged in battle with hordes of skeleton soldiers. Bellelis's magic guide was like a horn to send out a signal, magic missiles literally shot out of her long-range weapons at her enemies like a steady stream of cannonballs, and the righteous dwarven warriors joined the battle with a loud voice after making sure that the agility of the skeletons was really clumsy, and the blue tower shield and tough warhammer rampaged through the monster pile with his fierce war cry!

Seeing that the dwarf was already so brave, the two who were standing closer to each other then looked at each other, although they did not say half a word to each other, but a subtle tacit understanding drove them to determine their next course of action - that is, to take the opportunity to catch up with Urs, who had already killed Karpass, and assist the barbarian captain to kill the local leader.

The Orc Monk and Miss Drow Poet thought so, and then put their ideas into practice, and the sound of their swords coming out of their sheaths was pulled out of a pair of scabbards on either side of the latter's waist—

Thea's emblem was raised in front of everyone, although the druid's divine knowledge had been mastered by her combined bloodline after receiving Yustina's guidance, but when fighting against the monster enemies of the undead race, the silver-haired wolf-eared girl obviously understood that the priest's positive energy divine magic was the best choice for spell casting—and regardless of past experience or theoretical analysis, the Asmo bloodline of the beast angel would undoubtedly make her priest's divine magic produce devastating power on the undead creatures in the current battle.

So the magic she chooses to cast now is the "Group Small Healing Technique".

The whisper of prayer passed for a short time between the girl's rapidly opened lips, and the halo of holiness instantly turned into the outline of dozens of pillars of light, pouring down from the top of the heads of the skeleton monsters, and the intense positive energy of magic was like pouring ice water on the humanoid skeleton with ember sparks, rising in bursts of evaporating white smoke!

The fragile soul fire suddenly poured in the skeletons' eyes, and most of them were extinguished at once.

Even though there were a handful of two skeletons that survived the damage of the wolf-eared girl's magic, and were lucky enough to dodge the war hammer in Koto's hand, she stumbled and raised the iron sword held by her bony fingers to continue to subconsciously kill the red-haired warlock who was still standing in place-

"Bang!" "Bang!"

There were two dull thuds in succession, and the strong fists knocked the bones and heads of the two skeletons directly away, but the person who punched was not the orc warrior monk who was the best at hand-to-hand combat among the people.

Stonefist and Crow had already pulled out to Urs's side, and the person standing in front of Dorothy at this moment was Abel.

It's true that the Mechanic Mage is a mage by profession, and he's a pure mage, with no part-time component - but its steel golem-like body is certainly more than just a vase-like appearance, and the hammer-like fists can also be used as physical weapons for melee combat when he thinks he needs to save spell slots.

As for combat skills?

Unwanted ...... If you are in the world of the game, players with a good memory may tell you that a steel golem with the standard six dimensions of "33 strength/9 agility/-constitution/-intelligence/11 perception/1 charm" can teach a lot of stupid guys with a hard fist and hammer.

Able is a mechanical man from the mechanical plane, and has extraordinary intelligence attributes compared to ordinary golems. Although its fist doesn't actually have a high stat of 33 strength due to its size is not large enough, it is generally in its early 20s, which is more than enough to smash the crappy skeleton monster that Karpas transformed.

As a result, Dorothy was stunned to see that the two skeleton soldiers who had stumbled towards her had fallen to Abel's side. The red-haired Miss Warlock was still hesitant to risk the instability of the frenzied fluctuations to make another attempt at casting a spell, and the focus of her thinking suddenly shifted to the combat methods of the Mechanic Mage.

She said in her heart that Warnes was on top...... It turns out that mages can still fight like this?

The picture shifts back to the perspective of young people -

The blackened skeleton wrapped in a layer of crimson fire-clad Undead Nightmare managed to force Urs back a small limited distance from its knight master, causing the two sides to reopen a buffer area of about two meters in length.

"Damn humans...... Who the hell are you?! After losing his entire arm on his left side, the one-armed Karpas crouched up from the ground with the flame scimitar in his right hand, and through the spiritual instructions issued by the consciousness level, ordered the undead nightmaremon, which had just saved his life from the young man's sword, to move to his side and continue to protect himself.

Urs regrouped his stance, the cross-shaped greatsword in both hands in a pre-attack motion, barely bothering to answer his rebuke, eyes that didn't even need to activate the Berserk Specialty just watched him angrily and quietly—as if looking at a moving experience pack, and a metal ring on the bony finger of his right hand.

That is the "Randall's Cursed Ring", the cursed attribute on the item makes the edge of the ring like a ring of stubborn teeth biting the bone finger of Karpass, and the equipment effect of the agility attribute forcibly locking on to 14 must be very beneficial to Koto, but for Karpas it is an out-and-out burden, making his limb sensitivity much duller than when he was alive......
