628. Death Knell
Imperial towns.
The foggy sky occasionally pierced the miasma with a few rays of light.
The weather-beaten walls were covered with dried and still mottled blood, and the dim light that appeared from time to time made it look even more dilapidated.
Under the 30-meter-high castle tower, there is a huge gate of heavy steel with a diameter of 10 meters, on which the swords, guns and axes have left deep and shallow scars, as well as the dent marks left by the siege equipment, which seem to reflect its past and experience.
Captain Kemon returned with the Knights, and the heavy steel gates were once again opened, greeted with cheers and flowers, and the elven archers with quivers on the towers and the human crossbowmen with delicate crossbows cast respectful glances.
"Hero Gu Fan!!"
Dylan stood at the front of the line, raised the magic stick in his hand, and called out Gu Fan's name in an old and majestic voice, and the voice was also spread throughout the town with the power of the magic amplification.
"Hero Gufan, Hero Gufan, Hero Gufan!!"
The cheers roared.
The warriors all held their weapons aloft and celebrated this miraculous victory, and their eyes became even hotter when they looked at Gu Fan.
Gu Fan walked forward among the flowers.
The beautiful village girl held a basket full of all kinds of precious fruits and food, and looked at the hero with shyness and admiration.
The window on the second floor of the tavern opened, and the plump maid also cast a spring-like gaze, and the white and deep ravines appeared in spring under the loose cloth, and a flying kiss showed a somewhat seductive posture.
"Hero Gu Fan, it seems that the girls in the town have taken a fancy to you."
Captain Kemon smiled a gentleman's smile, heroes should be treated this way.
But...... All this is too false and dramatic in Gu Fan's eyes.
It's like a written script.,The hero who defeated the enemy returns to the town.,It's going to accept everyone's admiration.,And the love of the young girl.,It's like a template for a single-player game.。
Go back.
Gu Fan glanced at the ruined city tower, the bodies of many warriors on the defense node were pierced by spears and harpoons, and until now the weapons had not been drawn, and as the low wail became weaker and weaker, the blood and corpses turned into dust particles and disappeared.
No one cares if they live or die.
And in the dark corners of the town, there was this shivering woman, who coughed heavily and spat out the blood of her palm, and her breath was weak to the limit, and then she fell hard, and after she died, she also turned into dust and particles.
This condition is widespread.
In addition to the beautiful maids, the tavern girls, the beautiful girls with spring, and some important characters, many of them became very weak, as if they were seriously ill.
"What's wrong with them??"
Gu Fan sat on a white horse and pointed to a thin man who was seriously ill and asked.
"Back to the heroes, they are all infected with a disease called the [Black Plague]."
Dylan glanced at Gu Fan with some surprise, the black plague is a common disease in this world, and it stands to reason that Lord Hero should know about it, but he still explained respectfully: "Since Lord Lord was seriously injured, the Light of Faith can no longer protect those who are weak-willed. ”
Black plague.
The Light of Faith.
Gu Fan accepted two new terms.
They are related to each other, and they are related to the "lordship".
First, the lord was wounded.
Second, the lord was injured, causing the so-called "Light of Faith" to be unable to protect the townspeople, causing them to contract the Black Plague.
"Hero, we have a grand banquet for you."
Captain Kemon leads the way, wanting to take Gu Fan to a certain banquet venue, where it will be set like in a game or an anime, full of delicacies from the mountains and seas for Gu Fan to eat, and there are many young or sexy beauties to pick.
In other words...... As long as you are a hero, you can live a heavenly life here.
Boom!!
Knock knock!!
Suddenly, there was a lot of change.
Before Gu Fan could reply, the village suddenly remembered a dull bell ringing.
As the bell rang, a dark force swept across the town, and the wooden beams supporting the surrounding houses began to decay, followed by a large number of collapses, and the villagers in the houses began to emit a black gas when they heard the bell.
"Ahhh
The villagers' mouths opened wide, their bodies decaying rapidly in a painful howl, and their souls seemed to burst out of their shells, and in just a few seconds, their flesh and blood turned into black sand and dust and disappeared with the wind.
The maid, who had just been as beautiful as a flower, turned into dust in the blink of an eye, and rolled towards the foggy sky.
Not only the villagers, but also the warriors behind Captain Kemon and Mage Dylan, their willpower was as hard as iron, and their bodies exuded a black dead air, and their skin began to peel off little by little, but the speed of corruption was not so fast.
Tears.
The rest of the warriors who had not yet died, as well as Knight Captain Caymon and Mage Dylan, tears of sadness flowed from the corners of their eyes.
"The sound of the death knell."
"That is the death knell of the lord, he can no longer protect us."
The lord is the strongest of faiths, and as the dull death knell sounds, it proves that a hero is about to fall.
Gu Fan opened the Hell Phantom Pupil and found that a certain "thread" on the bodies of those villagers was suddenly broken, and then the weak consciousness was exposed to the air, and the black and cold wind blew them into haze and swept them into the sky.
The light of faith, that's what it's talking about??
Gu Fan suddenly remembered that he had killed the orc hero named Liu Qing before, and a large army had also perished so quickly.
It's just that the lords of the town don't seem to be really dead, and the faint light of faith still hangs over the warriors.
"I'm going to meet your lords."
Gu Fan wanted to figure out these strange and bizarre things, and powerful thoughts scattered around the town, and a powerful consciousness was found in a lighthouse-like building.
Gu Fan disappeared almost instantly, and appeared in the lighthouse in the next second.
The lighthouse is the most central building in the town, topped by a silver-white pendulum, but now black with the death of the lord.
It was like a base station, emitting a soft glow that enveloped the town, protecting all the inhabitants, who were now turned into a reminder, and the sound of the death knell hastened the death of the inhabitants.
Inside this lighthouse, Gu Fan met the so-called lord.
He was even more burly and tall, sitting on a majestic seat inlaid with gold patterns, his shining golden armor and giant helmet draped around every corner of his body, and holding a giant hammer weighing dozens of tons.
The lord sits here, like a Tarzan suppressing the town from being invaded by foreign monsters.
But now...... The lord was dying, because the black sword wound on his chest was slashed, and the darkness full of filth made it impossible for the wound to heal.
After a long time, his life had finally come to an end, and he no longer had the strength to defend the town, and the corruption left by the sword wound had spread to every corner of his body under his armor.
Gu Fan glanced at the inscription on the huge war hammer, which was the name of the lord's hero.
Wang Yan.
Really...... The lord is also a hero unit!!
He must be the human brain that has gone through thousands of years in a nutrition cabin, and the powerful mind has formed a heroic force in this illusory world.
