The sound of dense footsteps and the sound of armor colliding sounded very regularly, and under the illumination of the flames, the neat figures of the soldiers shuttled through the tent.

Xilan was also awakened, and walked out with a knight's sword wearing only a close-fitting inner armor.

"What's going on?"

The officer on duty quickly ran to Xi Lan's side, and responded in a concise tone: "My lord, we have been attacked!" A squad of soldiers has been killed, and a new victim appeared just two minutes ago, and we are mobilizing soldiers to determine the enemy's position!"

Xi Lan looked in the direction of the soldiers, nodded and said, "It must be the remnants or supporters of the Void Ancestor Royal Family, taking advantage of the night to sneak attack, let's take a look!"

"My lord, it doesn't have to be the remnants of the royal family, you didn't see those traces, they don't look like humans can leave them. The officer on duty explained: "It's like a beast or something." ”

"I have never seen a beast that fears fire and crowds, and dares to penetrate into the tents of the army to attack. Xilan was silent for a moment, remembering the ancient books that recorded ancient monsters hidden in the deepest secret room of the Holy See, he licked his lips: "Maybe it's something, something unexpected." ”

"My lord, let's ...... first"

There was another scream from the barracks, different from the previous one, this time the scream resounded behind him, and the officer on duty widened his eyes and turned his head stiffly to look at the camp tent that had been burned.

The screams came from that direction!

"Alert, alert, watch the rear!" the officer on duty was horrified to realize that the attacker had probably not left at all, it had been hiding in the tent, and who knew how it had escaped the spears and flames, and when the soldiers let their guard down and left, it reappeared and began to attack the soldiers.

Because the attack came so suddenly, the soldiers didn't have time to react, only to see a thin black shadow tear through the sky, and the movement was like lightning to pounce on the nearest soldier, and then blood splattered.

The attacked soldier had a pained look on his face, staggered back a few steps with his hands clutched to his throat, and then fell to the ground abruptly, spasming and pouring a large amount of blood from his mouth.

The throat of the soldier who had been attacked had been slashed, and the wound was so deep that there was no chance of survival.

The soldier next to him took out his dagger and knelt beside him, covered his companion's eyes with his palm, and looked sacred, "May you return to the arms of the Father." ”

Then a dagger was stabbed into his heart, ending his suffering.

The soldiers of the Holy See are not afraid of death at all, they think that death is only the passing of the body, and the pious soul will return to the bosom of God the Father with the starlight.

Death is like home.

That's the horror of the Judgment Temple soldiers.

But at this time, no one cared about this somewhat tragic scene, and the soldiers turned around and gathered their torches to look at the mysterious attacker.

Even Xilan was attracted to this guy.

When he saw the appearance of this creature clearly, even the adjudicating archbishop, who had been dealing with monsters for many years, couldn't help but feel a little chilly, the creature in front of him was a bit like a monkey, the body was thin and restrained, but the limbs were strangely long and very incongruous with the body, as if they were put together temporarily, covered with pitch-black and hard hair, like spikes standing upside down, and the blade in front of the claw emitted an extremely dazzling cold light, more than twenty centimeters long, reflecting the texture of steel under the light of the fire.

With just one glance, Xilan was sure that it was definitely not the claw of the beast, it was definitely a weapon made of steel, but it was deeply embedded in the beast's body.

The most important thing is that the head of this creature is like an orangutan, but it is a human face, and its eyes are full of cunning, and there is no rigidity of beasts at all.

What the hell is this monster?

Xilan frowned, there was no record of this kind of thing in ancient books, and judging from the appearance of the monster, this thing was not innate, but like a fusion creature with various limbs, and the iron claws were the best proof of this.

He remembered hearing the Pope mention when he was a young boy that in the westernmost part of the continent, some people could use necromancy to drive corpses, but it turned out to be the power of a demon seed, and the guy in front of him always gave him a sense of familiarity.

Not in appearance, but in breath, this familiar stench is......

Xilan narrowed his eyes, a bit like a demon in the Badlands.

Although the Crusaders couldn't figure out what it was for a moment, if Rand was placed here, he would immediately recognize the monster's true identity and shout out loud.

"Corpse slave!"

But for now, the main problem facing Xilan is to organize this monster as quickly as possible and kill it before it can do more damage.

The monster stared at the army surrounding it with turquoise eyes, its hind legs slightly bent like a taut bow, its front paws dragging in the ground to send out a series of sparks, and the piercing friction sound sounded, and the monster was ready to attack, with a cruel look on its face, picking its next target.

"Catch him!" Xilan calmly ordered.

As soon as Xilan's words fell, the monster immediately flew and leaped towards the nearest soldier, and the cold light flashed again.

However, there was a sound of gold and iron clashing, and the two soldiers raised their knightly swords in their hands to block the attack for their companions, and the monster's figure suddenly froze, and the soldiers on the side seized the opportunity and directly stabbed the long sword in their hands into its chest.

"It's hit!" Someone shouted, the monster was so fast that if it escaped, it wouldn't be so easy to catch it next time.

More than a dozen knight's swords slashed at the monster at the same time, leaving deep wounds on the monster's body.

But the monster's movements did not weaken because of this, and it braved the attacks of the soldiers, completely ignoring its own broken body, and rushed straight to the camp on the left.

It's fast like a shadow.

With a scream, another soldier died at its hands.

"No, this monster doesn't seem to feel pain!" The soldiers finally discovered a fact, and in the light of the fire, they found that there was no blood flowing from the wounds on the monster's body at all!

"This thing ......," Xilan whispered to herself.

......

Less than a kilometer away from the tent, on the top of a dark-shrouded hill, two men in pitch-black cloaks stood side by side, silently watching the chaos in the Crusader camp below, and when they saw the monster taking the soldiers' lives, the slightly taller man smiled: "How is it, Prime Minister. Are you still satisfied with my product?"

The man known as the Prime Minister coughed lightly twice, then turned around and asked, "Your Royal Highness, what do you think?"

"Extremely lethal, and intimidating and painless, it's a natural killing machine. A smaller woman nodded, clearly satisfied.

"It's the result of our refinement, which is stronger than the previous semi-finished products. The man who spoke earlier bared his teeth and laughed silently.

The princess turned her gaze back from the crusader tent, and while the scene was indeed pleasing to the eye, she had more important things to do at the moment, and she looked into the man's eyes, as if to see through the other's whole body and mind.

"Well, I have a question. ”

"Why are you helping me? ...... from the Far North "The princess said slowly, "Your Excellency!"
