Chapter 171: The Messenger
"Master Mills, I'm alright......" It only took a few minutes for Martin Burroughs to reopen his eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I don't want to delay everyone's trip because I'm alone!" He struggled to his feet from the ground, and Karin Redpass rushed over to hold him.
Martin declined Carlin's support and mounted his horse, his face pale, but at least able to keep his balance.
"Mistress Mills!" He glanced at Jon.
Jon nodded, "Alright, then everyone is ready to go!" ”
The real purpose of this trip is to travel to the easternmost poisonous woodlands of the Eastern Plaguelands and destroy the group of stitching monsters that spread the plague there!
……
Just as the group was about to set off again, they suddenly heard a faint sound from the bushes at the foot of the mountain.
Everyone's faces suddenly changed, Kitaya is an area controlled by the undead, and there shouldn't be any living creatures here except for some trees that are about to die!
"Don't worry, I'll go over and have a look!" Karin mounted his steed and charged.
Two minutes later, he returned, his face much more relaxed.
"It's all right, it's a messenger of the Scarlet Crusade, he's heading north...... I saw his decoration from afar, so I didn't bother him......" Carlin said with a big grin.
Hearing his explanation, most people immediately relaxed their vigilance...... Like them, the Scarlet Crusaders are also on a mission to destroy the undead in the Eastern Plague Lands, so everyone has a lot of good feelings about them!
Only Marlan's face became more solemn when he heard this: "It's strange, the territory of the Scarlet Crusaders is all south of the North Valley, why would a messenger of the Scarlet Crusaders appear here, and still walking north?" ”
Marlan's words were like waking up a person in a dream.
"Quick! Stop him! Jon commanded directly.
The galloping horses hurried in the direction of the messenger's departure.
……
An ordinary courier was naturally not as fast as the heavily armed paladins, and soon everyone caught up with him.
"Are you ......" the messenger asked, looking like a very energetic young man, a little surprised.
"On orders from Lord Mills, we're going to check you!" Marlan rushed to the front and said majestically.
"Wait...... Master Mills...... Are you the Sage Mills and his paladins...... Oh my God, I can meet such a legendary figure here! The messenger seemed agitated.
His reaction made Marlan stunned, and she wondered if she was too suspicious.
Her tone softened slightly: "Yes, I'm sorry sir we need to do a routine check on you, after all, there are many undead in the Eastern Plague Land now, so we ......"
Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly heard Jon shouting from behind, "Be careful, Marlan! ”
Jon was naturally not as fast as Marlan and Carlin, so it was no surprise that he was lagging behind...... But even from a distance, he could clearly feel that the aura emanating from the messenger was not ordinary.
Almost intuitively, Malan stretched out his right arm in front of him.
Then, a massive impact was sent from the messenger's body, accompanied by a strong foul odor.
"Necromancer!"
I don't know who shouted, and then Marlan fell to the ground, her entire right arm covered with the liquid of the plague...... At the same time, the necromancer had already taken advantage of the fact that everyone was stunned, and flashed dozens of yards away!
Carlin hurriedly rushed over to hold her.
"Don't touch me...... Get hold of him......" Marlan said as she struggled.
Jon had already arrived, his voice very calm: "I'm here to heal Marlan, you go and recover that necromancer, remember to live!"
Carlin nodded, raised his spear, and rushed forward.
……
Even though this is a very good necromancer, it is impossible to escape the pursuit of the eight blood knights.
Ten minutes later, Karin Redpass brought the necromancer back, mercilessly breaking the necromancer's arms and legs with his spear and dragging him behind his horse with a rope.
The plague liquid on Marlan's right hand was gone, replaced by a white bandage!
"Miss Marlan, she ......," Carlin asked quickly.
"She's fine!" Jon replied.
Marlan nodded to her companions, she was the strongest of all for the Light's talent, and she was the one who absorbed the most Muru's energy at the time...... This low-level plague, if it weren't released on her at such a close distance, wouldn't have caused her any harm at all, not to mention that Jon was still by her side and could be healed at any time.
Jon turned his gaze to the necromancer, his face looking like he was dead even though his limbs had been broken by Carlin and he couldn't move......
"Your name!" Jon asked indifferently.
"Huh......" the necromancer closed his eyes.
"Your name!" Jon's voice became overwhelming!
"I ......"
"Tell me your name!"
"My name is Innigo Montor!" The necromancer soon couldn't take the pressure anymore, and he replied honestly, "I was ordered by my master to break into the Scarlet Crusaders and become a mid-ranking priest there, and my master called me Serzan the Twilight Bringer!" ”
"Are you a spy sent by the Scourge to the Scarlet Crusade?" Jon continued.
"No, I'm not going to be a slave of the Scourge of slaves...... My master is the mighty Dreadlord Banazal! The necromancer's voice was full of pride.
"Banazal!" Everyone's faces changed suddenly.
"Isn't this demon dead?" Carlin asked quietly.
The Dreadlord Barnazar, the commander of the Scourge Legion's previous attack on Lordaeron, was killed in the Lordaeron Fortress by Marshal Gavinrad using the reforged Quelzaram, a fact that all of Lordaeron are well aware of.
"How could my master be killed by a mortal so easily, he just faked his death and escaped, the real one has already incarnated into the Scarlet Crusaders!"
Has Banazar entered the Scarlet Crusaders? Jon's face suddenly didn't look good!
"What is your master's status in the Scarlet Crusade?" He hurriedly asked.
"What is the identity of the master, how will I know...... All I know is that the master's purpose is to instigate the Scarlet Crusaders to launch an attack on Stratholme, and at the same time take advantage of the chaos to completely seize the leadership of the Scarlet Crusaders!
