For the kingdom of Karen, the peaceful years that lasted for more than seventy years have long made people forget the horror of the undead and orcs.

Even the battle-hardened Wellington had never fought the undead - so when countless figures running in strange postures appeared in the field of vision, everyone hesitated and stunned for a moment.

"They are the lowest-level undead soldiers, they are not much more powerful than wild boars, and they will die if they slash their heads with a sword!"

"We must kill these guys, or thousands of Evta's people will be transformed into their likeness!"

Roddy's voice brought the soldiers back to their senses, there were only more than eighty enemies in front of them, and they had the advantage of the mobility of war horses - cavalry against infantry, and they had the advantage in this kind of battle.

"Keep the lights on - Akasha, watch the shields and blessings!"

"Night" was a terrible condition for cavalry, but at this time, because of the presence of Akasha, the originally dark vision was clear: the escaped undead apothecaries, the rows of cages, and they could even see the tattered clothes of the ghouls...

The coarse cloth shorts of the farmer, the sumptuous cloth robes of the merchants, and the messy leather armor of the mercenaries represented the identities of these "ghouls" before they were converted, and among them, Roddy saw seven or eight sets of robes that belonged only to the priests of the sect.

Apparently, the team of the "Rosicrucius" who came to disperse the plague met with misfortune.

The team accelerated to charge, the Knight of Wellington raised his sword high, and with an angry shout of "ha", a long phantom instantly condensed behind him because of the "battle qi"-

"Don't fight! Don't be dragged off your horse!"

Roddy reminded the soldiers around him again, he took a deep breath, endured the rancid air, adjusted the horse's head slightly, and clenched the giant axe to protect Akasha's front...

Fifty meters.

The ghouls who broke out of the cage opened their mouths wide and pounced on the cavalry that formed the "Trident" charge, some of them crawling with their hands and feet like wild beasts, and some of them running forward, although they still looked "humanoid", but their hands grew sharp claws, and a mouthful of protruding sharp teeth stained with black blood plasma, filled with a strong rancid stench.

Twenty meters.

Fifty knights raised their weapons, reins clenched, and rushed into the tide of more than two hundred ghouls...

"Puff puff!"

The shadow of the sword flickered, and countless broken flesh instantly soared into the sky.

The battle axe swung violently, and Luo Di slashed three black shadows in succession with his attribute advantage, and after the "Bloodthirsty Technique" was triggered, his figure emitted a faint red light in the dark night. The entire front platoon quickly tore a wound in the enemy line with the protection of the "Holy Shield", and led the cavalry behind them to crush one ghoul after another into pieces...

In just fifteen seconds, fifty knights penetrated the scattered line of more than eighty ghouls without any suspense.

Akasha's "Purification Ring" dispelled the disgusting stench around them, and the soldiers breathed heavily, but there was something "unbelievable" in their eyes—

These ghouls... Why is it so weak?

The team immediately turned to the second harvest, and the screams of ghouls were heard as the blades slashed, but some soldiers were dragged off their horses by their claws, and in a matter of seconds, they were dissected alive.

Although there were casualties, the victory of the cavalry was only a matter of time. Roddy was not surprised by this, because he knew that the greatest role of ghouls was not to fight, but to "contag".

Killed or scratched by these evil creatures, humans transform into bloodthirsty and crazy ghoul kinds. These evil deeds that the undead did to humans at the beginning, Roddy will never forget.

But these released ghouls were only about level six, and they were completely crushed by the cavalry, so after the second encirclement, Roddy turned around and rushed directly to the wooden building in the darkness - he knew very well... His first task is not to take out the ghouls, but to destroy the source of the plague infection.

The Wellington knight pulled the reins and chased after the fleeing undead apothecary. The "Bone Spear Technique" that flew out of the dark corner was blocked by his "Battle Qi Armor", and with a wave of the long sword, the "Ghost Blade" immediately cut down a piece of wooden stake, causing the undead hiding behind to be in a different place in an instant.

Akasha was surrounded and protected by six cavalry regiments, and after the rings of holy light, shields, healing, and purification were cast one after another, the shining ring turned the approaching ghoul into a black ash...

By the fourth minute of the battle, the victory was decided.

On the other side, Luo Di rushed to a wooden house by the river with the [Purification Blade], raised his foot and kicked the door out, he dodged the shadow arrow flying out of the house, rushed in one step, and the blade in his hand "clicked" to slash a bone shield, and the other hand was directly placed on the face of the undead hiding in the house, casting the "Arcane Impact" in the hedron...

"Boom!"

The undead's head was directly shattered, and Roddy could see the barrels of marked green potions in the room through this light...

A hint popped up from the Battle Log, and Roddy looked down to find that [Judgment of the Throne of Bones] displayed the words "Mission Accomplished".

"That's all... Done?"

Roddy frowned, his eyes moved to these potions, and confirmed that the "plague pollution source" displayed on them was correct, and after a little hesitation, it suddenly dawned on him: the first step of the task was only to "find out" the location of the pollution source, and did not say that the pollution source must be "destroyed", so by the time he found this place, this step of the task had been completed.

The quest rewarded 8,000 XP, which was a far cry from the millions of rewards after killing Belom in the first phase, and Roddy couldn't wait to open the quest bar, only to find that the second phase of the quest did not show "destroy the source of the plague", but "continue to search for clues to the plague and find out the truth about the plague." ”

The reward for this step of the quest is "30,000 XP, the title 'Undead Slayer'", judging from the color of the quest font, this quest is actually marked as "orange", which means that it is difficult to complete it independently with Roddy's current level.

This is an epic task after all, and Roddy never thought that he could complete it easily, so the problem in front of him at this time did not cause him much distress - finding problems, finding solutions, trying and solving them, he already had a set of plans for the task that he knew by heart.

He carefully searched the paper scroll and the corpse of the undead in the house, confirmed that there was no letter, turned around and walked out of the house, thought about it, dragged the horse to run more than thirty meters away, took out a "mutant magic crystal fragment" belonging to the Kemera beast, injected energy to activate it, and threw it into the house with all his strength.

"Boom!"

In the violent explosion, the source of the plague pollution was completely destroyed along with all the nearby buildings, and Luo Di, who was standing thirty meters away, was caught off guard and was directly blown back a few steps by the air wave... He touched his face in surprise, secretly glad that he hadn't stood too close just now.

Then Roddy stepped on the war horse and found Welling, who had already killed the fleeing undead apothecaries... At this time, the knight had caught up with the last undead who had no way to escape, and was about to swing his sword to hack the opponent to death, but was stopped by Roddy's shout.

"Don't kill him yet, it's better to get something out of his mouth. ”

Despite his disgust with the undead, Roddy felt that the plague and the Judgment of the Throne of Bones mission were a little strange at the moment, so he decided to keep a prisoner of war.

"You don't want to ask anything from me!I-"

"Smack!"

The undead wanted to shout at Roddy, but before he could finish speaking, Wellington crushed seven or eight teeth with the back of his sword, and the tall knight picked him up like a cargo, pinched a match, "click, click", pouted his limbs and removed his chin, and dragged him away, while asking Roddy, "Our mission is complete?"

"At the moment... That's right. Roddy nodded, the trip was extremely smooth, more than forty ghouls, more than a dozen undead apothecaries and mages were cleaned up, and the source of the plague was destroyed, which was an overfulfilled task.

However, looking at the remains of the corpse belonging to the deputy, Bishop Cross and several priests, Roddy sighed slightly and said in a low voice: "Prepare to return, we need to relay this news to the monastery as soon as possible." ”

A curfew was imposed in the city of Houllier.

After patrolling outside the Duke's mansion, Knight Titus was returning from the main gate with his team, the sound of horses' hooves echoed in the silent streets, because of the summer heat, the big knight wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to the cavalry beside him: "Tuga's team seems to be a few minutes late, you take a few people to check it, don't let there be a patrol gap in the middle." ”

"It's... Ahem... My lord. ”

The answering cavalry coughed twice, and Titus raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

"No... It's okay, my lord, maybe I've been drinking less water lately. ”

Titus nodded and walked off his horse, only to find Steward John walking out of the door as he reached the mansion.

"Knight Titus, my lord has a letter asking you to send it to the monastery now," Butler John looked to the left and right, and said in a low voice, "The situation is a bit urgent, so make sure it is delivered to the bishop's table." ”

"Okay. ”

Knight Titus did not suspect him, nodded and took the letter, turned and disappeared into the night with the group.

Looking at his departing back, the corners of John's mouth curled up slightly, and he turned around and returned to the mansion.

And in a house in the Cambay district of Hollier, the apothecary Wembsk was throwing bottles of semi-finished potions into the crucible in front of him with a gloomy face.

He arrived with the Assassins this afternoon, and according to the pre-planned plan, after the assassination, the mission of Wembsk would begin after the city was curfew and locked... However, no one expected that the assassination would be a complete failure, which gave rise to some unspeakable frustration in his heart, as a "rising star" of Tasman.

"Heh... Let's just keep you alive for a few days. ”

The elemental mana jumped in his hand, Wembusk frowned slightly, carefully brewed the potion, and whispered to himself: "Lord Faranir really can't wait, this semi-finished potion is still unstable..."
