Chapter 16: The Blade of Fire
War, war never changes.
When Lu En opened his eyes again, there was a burst of burning wood in his ears, and all he could see was a wooden roof made of wood.
Lu En got up from the bed and exhaled, "It's the second day." β
Last night, Lu En not only gathered the horses in the entire Mu Silon's pasture, but also conveniently let about 20 people of the squire cavalry participate in the Black Dragon Knights, which can be described as a bumper harvest.
After all, when the ranch is put to a pot, the undead in Musilon will not be able to make the Black Knight, after all, there is no way to make the Black Knight without the war horses in the pasture to transform the skeleton war horses.
Lu En also gained a little talent point last night, he opened the talent system, and locked his eyes on the Black Dragon Talent Group.
[Enchantment: Flame Blade]: Enchants flame on the blade of the sword, increases the weapon's attack power by 20%, and converts attack damage into magic damage.
Lu En didn't think about it, and directly lit up the flame enchantment.
He pushed open the wooden door in front of him, and then saw the militia and horseback attendants who were still training.
They lined up in a neat line, constantly using their spears to conduct assassination training, and even in the strong sunlight, they did not fear the sun.
Lu En wanted to go to the wood elf to sacrifice, but before he could walk a few steps, he saw Sharp Claw walking in front of Lu En, and the lizardman hurriedly said, "This is the news brought by the horseback squire you sent out, you should take a good look." β
Lu En was slightly stunned, and then opened the note in his hand: "Bretonnia canonized Lu En as the knight of Musilon, and before the king's army comes to exterminate the undead, he must defend the village for the kingdom." β
A smile appeared on Lu En's face, but he didn't take the opportunity to put down the note in his hand, because the lizardman in front of him quickly said hurriedly: "Look below, there is other news." β
Lu En quickly looked at the bottom of the note, only to see a sentence written under the note: "Her Royal Highness Princess Estria's forward army has come to the north of Musilon and asks Sir Lu to go to the north to meet him." β
Lu En put the note in the palm of his hand into the bonfire beside him, he pulled out the long sword at his waist, and then stared at the long sword in his hand: "Flame, burn from the blade of my sword." β
I saw the flames light up from the blade like a fire dragon, and then Lu En gently waved the long sword in his hand: "It seems that I have a legal identity in Bretonnia, and I don't know what kind of person the princess of Bretonnia is." β
He stared at the note burning in the campfire in front of him, and then whispered in a voice that only he could hear, "Her Royal Highness Princess Estria, the Emperor's fiancΓ©e, is rumored to have grown up in the castle of Cologne...... Caged birds. β
Lu En soon led more than thirty horseback attendants in the direction of Her Royal Highness Princess Estria, and ran out of the forest, where there was an endless savannah, pale green grass fluttering in the wind, and if there was a hint of discord, it was that the soil on the ground was stained with a layer of pitch-black blood substance.
Lu En looked at the village next to the river, according to the information, the village in the north was in the hands of vampires, but there were no undead armies patrolling the area.
Everything was quiet, which made Lu En hesitate slightly, then pointed to the village not far away and said, "Everyone, follow me slowly, there are some hidden dangers in the village ahead." β
The village was quiet, almost like a deserted village, and no one lived in it. But the closer he got, the more Lu En could smell the faint smell of blood in the air.
Lu En stopped because he had discovered the undead.
There are grave ghouls gnawing on flesh and bones in the village houses, zombies wandering the village unconsciously, and of course skeleton soldiers in neat formations.
The village has been completely turned into a land of death, and the Red Duke must have implemented a scorched earth policy after realizing that he could not maintain his rule over the village.
"Wow!"
The undead let out a roar, and suddenly the undead in the village emerged from the houses, and the zombies wandering the streets trembled.
Lu En grasped the long sword in his hand vigilantly, and the horseback attendants around him also nervously clenched the weapons in their hands, but when the zombies and ghouls began to rush towards the center of the village, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Following Lu En's line of sight towards the center of the village, he saw a faint convoy resting in the center of the village, numbering about three hundred people, not only wearing bright armor from top to bottom, but also heavy armor on the horses.
In the middle of the convoy, Lu En saw a lion flag fluttering over the convoy, which was the army of the royal family of Bretonnia.
"A few inferior undead can't stop the knights of Bretonnia." Lu En muttered to himself, then pointed his sword at the center of the village: "Then, you can charge with me and dedicate our victory to the royal family of Bretonnia." β
Da-da-da-da
There was a crisp sound of horses' hooves, followed by a series of smoke and dust pulled out behind the horses, and then rushed towards the center of the village with a thunderous momentum.
Lu En rode the white horse, and he skillfully let the horse crash into one skeleton soldier after another, and thought to himself: "If it weren't for the help of the system, he wouldn't have been able to raise his equestrian skills to such a level at such a fast speed." β
"Whoa, whoa!"
A group of zombies emerged from the houses of the village, armed with wooden sticks, and staggered towards Lu En.
Lu En glanced at the militia team following behind him, and then said, "I'll rush in alone first, and you will advance slowly." β
With that, Lu En jumped down from his horse, and he took a deep breath: "Flames, float on my sword!" β
The flames burned on the edge of his long sword in an instant, and he clad in black armor and rushed towards the center of the village.
But the next moment, the tomb ghoul that came out of the surrounding houses rushed in front of Lu En, this tomb ghoul was in tatters all over his body, and there was a trace of rancid smell on his body, and from the outside, it was not much different from a zombie.
However, Lu En clearly knew that tomb ghouls were far stronger than zombies, and one tomb ghoul could even defeat ten zombies.
"Give me death!" Lu En took a step forward suddenly, and with all his strength, he slashed at the tomb ghoul in front of him, and the brilliant flames flew from the blade of the sword, fluttering like a flaming butterfly.
