43 Surrender and Conquest

The convoy stopped in front of the town, and a handsome silver-haired young man jumped off his horse.

He was dressed in light silver metal armor and carried a slender knight's salute sword at his waist with barbs all over it. He gave an order: "Treat the wounded!"

Several hunters jumped out of the carriage and removed bandages and medicines from the huge carriage to treat their wounded companions. The centurion finally got hope: "Rhodes, please!"

"Understood!" Rhodes burst into the flooded town at full speed, without hesitation. The moment he stepped onto the water, a hard sound sounded beneath his feet, turning into a thin sheet of ice that supported him as he went.

Rod Eureka is a noble knight of Nokmar and a mid-level ice mage who studied under the Wessell Council.

The sea water turned into thin ice under his boots, and then quickly shattered when he stepped on it. This is a mid-level ice magic that freezes the water instantly, but it can't last long, and the durability is poor, but it's enough for Rhodes to come to the rescue.

The armor on Yugxia's body began to crumble, and she forced her hands to grab the tentacles on her neck, causing the bleeding magic to burn, but the black tentacles seemed to grow a layer of hard, which only slightly melted in the flames, and the black slime dripped into the water.

"Your Highness!" Rhodes joined the fray, his sword drawn, a blue ring reflected in his left hand, and the tentacles wrapped around Yugxia's neck began to freeze.

He moved nimbly, dodging Bawen's slash and smashing the icy tentacles to pieces with his sword. Yugshia finally gasped for breath, her limbs still unable to move. Rhodes quickly used Frost again, shattering the four tentacles.

"Rod!" Yugshia rolled over behind Babin and wrapped up with Rod. Her armor was almost shattered, and the Rose Spear had turned into a blood-red light, and she had no choice but to draw her twin swords to fight.

"Your Highness. Rod stared at Babin with a grim gaze, "I'm late." ”

"Up!" Yugshia ordered, and Rhodes used frost again, temporarily freezing Bavin's legs. Bawen was about to rush forward and slash, but he was frozen in place, his heavy upper body falling into the current.

The ceremonial sword and the twin blades were infused with frost and blood magic, respectively, and they both struck at the back of Bawen's head. Thinking that he could defeat the enemy with one move, Bawen's right arm swung the cleaver behind his back at a twisted angle, ricocheting the two men's weapons away.

Rhodes took two steps back, creating a patch of ice at Yugshia's feet. Her Celine strength was about to run out, and she couldn't support herself to continue standing on the water.

But Rhodes came all the way, and his condition was not good, and he came to fight without replenishing his mental power, and after using magic many times, he is now a little vague.

Bawen stood up again, shattered the frost on his leg with all his might, and lunged, but grabbed the meat cleaver with both hands and began to whirl quickly, unleashing a whirlwind slash. Between the rotation of the blade, there was also a sneak attack of the tentacles, and Rod couldn't dodge, and the armor on his shoulders was swept away.

"Your Highness, where are you going!" Rod exclaimed, forced to jump away.

Yughya dived into the water and swam in the direction of the hospital: "Drag him to the entrance of the town!"

Rhodes didn't understand her intentions to swim in the opposite direction, but as a noble knight, he had to obey orders and flee quickly towards the entrance of the town. The centurion and the others were ready to go into battle once they had led Bawen over.

But Bavin's fighting instincts told him that all he had to do was chase the lone man. Even if that person is capable, but it is difficult to speak alone, one-on-one in this sea water, his chances of winning must be greater.

So he stopped wielding the meat cleaver, turned around, and walked towards the hospital step by step. Moving along the current, he walked steadily, faster and faster, searching for traces of Yugoxia in the water.

Yugshia dived all the way, not daring to surface, and swam towards the hospital by feeling. She didn't dare to open her eyes, the murky waters were littered with debris and fish scales. One of her level 1 abilities is Fish Breath, which can hold her breath in the water for longer.

After diving for a while, Yugshia burst out of the water and climbed over the wall into the vestibule of the hospital. She was soaking wet, her long dark red hair was scattered, and her white shirt was clinging to her body, but she didn't have time to comb it, and shouted in the courtyard, "Lorne!"

Still no response, Lorne and Erin didn't know where they had been washed away. In despair, Yugshia rushed into the flooded hospital.

She saw many companions in the dimly lit corridors, soaking face down in the water, floating with the current. Yugxia's heart ached, and she knew there was nothing more she could do. There is no other way than to use the level 4 ability against Bawin.

But even if Bawen can be solved, it will be difficult for him to continue to fight against Najian on his own state. If she chooses to lead the people to flee, Nagian will wreak havoc, destroying the entire southern coast, and then all hopes of recovering Nokmaar will be dashed in the first place.

So now the only way was to find Lorne, but there was a stream of water everywhere, where had they gone? It had been so long, and their fate was uncertain, and Yughia was in despair.

"Lorne! Irene!" yurged Yugshia as she climbed onto the fourth floor of the hospital to get a bird's-eye view of the panoramic view, trying to find the two of them. But there was not a single figure in the vast water.

Unbeknownst to her, in the slightly softening water behind the hospital, a confused Lorne was supporting Erin with both hands, allowing her face to surface. Lorne tried to shout, but was drowning in the water and couldn't make a sound.

He was almost out of breath, and his abdomen was strangely deflated. But no matter what, even if you take your life, you have to keep Erin from sinking into the water. But he really couldn't hold on, his hands gradually lost his strength, and Irene's body began to sink.

Yughya ...... Why didn't you come to her rescue?

Consciousness was about to dissipate, and a hint of blame arose in Lorne's mind. He sank into the water with Erin, who was still unconscious, her mouth slightly open, spat out some bubbles, and began to drown.

Lorne hugged her, drifting with the current. He felt that he was dying, and perhaps his fate as a savior would come to an end today.

But...... I want to save Irene. He thought.

The voice in my head began to emerge, from the first vague whisper to the clearer. The voice was laughing, and it said, "Do you see? The dust is lost in the tide, and you will cease to exist." ”

"O family of Hagarn, ugly gods. Najian, ugly thing that stands in the way of the new order, I want to tear its tail with my own hands!" the voice became manic, "but it's up to you to do it today." ”

Lorne listened to the voice echo in his head, as if a powerful and ancient will had been added to him.

"Surrender. It says, "The people you want to protect, the gods you want to destroy, all you need is your piety to do all this!"

Lorne could no longer tell if the voice was evil, it was true or false. He hugged Erin, his hollow eyes beginning to glow green.

I...... Surrender to you.

Lorne's skin began to peel off inch by inch, and green venom flowed from all around him, revealing his bones. The venom hardened into sharp patches of armor that covered his body, and four massive scythe knots grew out behind him, ejecting him from the water.

"Conquer!" the voice resounded in his head, turning into Lorne's muffled words, "Purify the filth!
