Chapter 201: The Great Purge (10)
Heklas only issued the quest, and he himself could not force the hero to do anything. It's just that he didn't want to continue to wait here alone for a hundred years or more after missing Chen Mo, so he used deception to get Chen Mo to accept the task.
Strictly speaking, Heklas violated the oracle. Therefore, after Chen Mo made a request, he still chose to give Chen Mo compensation as a hush money.
Heklas came to a place that resembled a sink, and from the bottles and jars on it, he concocted different liquids of various colors and mixed them to get a red potion.
"Take it. There was a hint of weariness in Heklas's voice, "This can be regarded as canceling out what happened before." ”
'Enhancement potion, from the world of heroic invincibility. After taking it, you can randomly improve a certain physical fitness by 5 to 10 points. It can only be taken once per person. ’
Chen Mo was happy in his heart, this is a good thing. Then he looked eagerly at Heklas, "Can you give me a few more bottles?"
"You guy!" Heklas stood up angrily, "Do you know how expensive it is to make this thing?
"Don't be angry. Chen Mo looked at Heklas with a smile, "I don't want much, just give me three more bottles." ”
"Hmph. Heklas snorted heavily, "Wait until you come over with Rodhart's head." ”
"Good. Chen Mo felt the movement outside, smiled and nodded, and then turned to leave.
"Gotta win. Looking at Chen Mo's departing back, Heklas whispered to himself, "I don't want to stay here any longer." ”
For Heklas, only after the hero has completed the tasks assigned by the oracle can he be considered to have completed the oracle before he can leave here. In contrast, he may be more eager than Chen Mo to be able to complete the task!
For a hundred years, that terrible loneliness is unimaginable pain for ordinary people!
"You're here?" After Chen Mo walked out of the room, he saw King Ida and the others standing outside with nervous expressions. Behind them were the soldiers under Chen Mo's command.
"What's wrong?" King Ida stepped forward to look at the mushroom-like house behind Chen Mo.
Chen Mo briefly recounted what happened, and then looked at King Ida and them with a smile: "I found a very interesting thing. If you walk in the direction of the dungeon at that three-way intersection, you may be able to go to the imperial capital of the Hell Clan through the underground!"
Walking in the steep, mountainous Doomsday Mountains is too much of a drain and a waste of time. And the closer you get to the Imperial City, the stronger the defense of the Hell Clan will be. Chen Mo estimated that it wouldn't be long before his team would encounter a large-scale Hell Clan legion.
When Chen Mo heard Heklas say that there was a road to the dungeon, he had already considered that he might be able to go to the Imperial City of the Hell Clan from underground. You must know that the Hell Clan and the Dungeon are allies, and the Hell Clan's defense force against the underground must be very weak, which gave Chen Mo the opportunity to quietly approach the Imperial City.
"Can you really pass?" Lin Yun'er asked with an eager face. She really couldn't continue to climb the mountains.
"It's not clear yet. Chen Mo turned around and looked at the Prophet's hut behind him, "Wait until you finish the task and ask him." ”
Although it is underground, the environment here is not dark at all. The moss that covers almost the entire underground space glows green, and the entire underground world is reflected brightly.
It didn't take long for Chen Mo and his party to come to the three-way intersection, and then walked in the direction of the prison.
At the end of this passage is an unusually wide space, about the size of a mega stadium. In the middle of this space is a prison surrounded by a tall wall. The thick and dark gate is intricately carved with patterns, and it looks very mysterious.
Chen Mo couldn't understand what these so-called gods were thinking, since they had already locked people up here, it was good to kill them if they wanted to. Why take off your pants and fart for more.
But since I couldn't figure it out, I didn't think about it at all, and went straight to push the door open.
The thick door slowly opened amid the harsh sound of steel twisting, and Chen Mo jumped back almost instantly!
Just as Chen Mo was retreating, a snow-bright long knife flashed with an autumn-like halo and slashed at the position he was before!
Tall body, pale complexion, long blonde hair, and red eyes. When the gate was completely opened, a death knight dressed in black armor rode out on a war horse with a black body, black metal armor, a pair of eyes full of blood-red light, and four hooves burning with turquoise flames!
Rodhart, the strongest Death Knight!
At this moment, Rodhart was holding a long war knife in his hand, and a dazzling halo was constantly flashing on the blade. What didn't cut Chen Mo just now was this knife!
"All retreat!!" Feeling the strong desire to fight in Rodhart's body, Chen Mo's heart began to burn as if he was infected. It's a waste to meet such a strong person and not fight heartily!
The women quickly retreated with Chen Mo's legions, leaving space. However, although King Ida retreated, he led his men and horses to block the only entrance and exit of this huge space.
'Huh~~~' Chen Mo exhaled lightly, held the sword of relief with both hands, and suddenly exerted force under his feet, jumped up and slashed at Rodhart fiercely!
'Pyro~~~' The Sword of Relief and Rodhart's long knife intersected in mid-air, and the violent impact sound shook Lin Yun'er's scalp in the distance.
After Chen Mo landed, he jumped up again, and the sword of relief in his hand kept swinging and slashing towards Rodhart. And this powerful death knight also did not show weakness and slashed against Chen Mo. The speed of action on both sides is getting faster and faster, and when they get to the back, it is almost Chen Mo who keeps turning his body and slashing around Rodhart!
"So fast. Lin Yun'er in the distance looked at Chen Mo almost as if he was about to move his body like an afterimage, staring at her with a stunned expression. Such a swift speed of movement is beyond the scope of humans.
Rodhart is the strongest Death Knight and is extremely powerful in personal combat. However, it is a ghost clan after all, and the strongest thing about the ghost clan is not its single combat ability, but its ability to continuously create an almost endless army of death under its command!
And at this moment, Rodhart, who has been imprisoned here all the year round, has not a single brother by his side. Relying on his own strength to fight against Chen Mo. And the Sword of Relief in Chen Mo's hand has an unstoppable attribute. It has more than three times the destructive power against metal, and it also has five percent slash damage that ignores defense! Not to mention the bonus damage and deterrence of the Sword of Relief against a ghost character like Rodhart.
Rodhart and Chen Mo, who were alone, went head-to-head, and there was almost no chance of winning.
!!After many exchanges, the long knife in Rodhart's hand was finally cut off by the Sword of Relief! Chen Mo, who had been waiting for this moment for a long time, did not hesitate to directly turn his arm and flick the Sword of Relief's backhand, ready to cut Rodhart directly into two from his waist!
It's just that Rodhart, who is the strongest hero of the ghost clan, is by no means such a simple character. Just when its long knife was just cut off, the war horse under Rodhart's crotch actually rose directly from the ground in an instant, completely violating the laws of physics!
One of the warhorse's hooves lightly touched on the Sword of Relief, and then jumped out directly from the top of Chen Mo's head like a black phantom, roaring and rushing towards the exit passage!
Rodhart is a knight of death, not a knight who values honor above life. Running away after defeat is no pressure for it, as long as it can escape from the place where it has been held for years, it is a victory!
The many priests blocking the passage raised their hands one after another, and the bright spiritual power balls began to condense between their hands. The knights, on the other hand, drew their weapons and faced Rodhart.
However, the speed of the war horse was too fast, and it was even more exaggerated that it was as light as a feather and had no weight. Directly in mid-air, he turned around and avoided a series of spiritual power balls, and then rushed into the group of knights!
'Ah~~~' A knight with a two-handed sword was about to attack, but lost the figure of Rodhart in front of him. Before he could react, the flaming hooves of the horse, which had already jumped on top of the knight's head, stomped on his head, and a cloud of turquoise flames enveloped the unfortunate knight almost instantly!
'Huh~~~' The long knife in the hand of Rodhart, who was in mid-air, was cut off by a third with a slight wave, and the heads of the two knights nearby were already in different places!
Rodhart couldn't beat Chen Mo who was holding the Sword of Relief, but it was extremely easy to deal with these ordinary knights. The name of the strongest death knight of the ghost clan is not just a casual talk!
The warhorse, which had not landed at all in mid-air, once again moved in an unbelievably straight lateral line, avoiding the spears and swords stabbed by the knights around it. Stepping on a knight's head again, the same is to burn it with soul fire!
Rodhart waved his long knife with ease, and once again cut off the head of a knight. Seeing that he was about to break out of the encirclement and enter the passage.
With the speed at which its strange horse moves, once it escapes, no one really wants to catch up with it!
King Ida leaped to his feet, holding Remington in both hands, and instantly rained down a rain of bullets on Rodhart in midair. The spiritual bullet shattered the cloak on Rodhart's body to smithereens, and even the armor of the war horse under him was mostly shattered.
It wasn't until the armor broke, that everyone realized that it wasn't an ordinary horse at all, but a skeletal war horse whose entire body was shrouded in black mist!
Instead of turning to deal with King Ada, Rodhart hurried towards the passage to escape. But at this moment, Xu Zhuxian, who was also holding Remington, stood in front of it with a firm gaze!8)
