Chapter 11: Counterattack
Inside the castle, somewhere underground in the core area of Soth Manor.
"This breath is the Purgatory Demon Dragon Scroll, but it's a pity that it's just a broken one" In the center of an ancient magic array, a ** male corpse suddenly opened his eyes, stood upright in an instant, and muttered, the strange blood symbol on his body gradually disappeared.
** The body is as perfect as a sculpture, and his inky pupils are looking in a certain direction, as if penetrating layers of barriers. That direction is where Aya and they are.
The breath of the elemental dragon summoned by Aya, the magical power of the black flames, seemed so dazzling to him.
He was a corpse before, but now he is a container for an unknown being.
The scarlet blood flowing in the magic array around the man gradually solidified and was no longer hot and boiling. The blood of the dead guards and enemies of the Soth Manor was transferred here in a steady stream through the array maps, just to summon a wisp of consciousness from the unknown being.
"Ancient being, you have been summoned to come, please fulfill our agreement" Gaia Soth said respectfully as he looked at the ** man in front of him.
Gaia sacrificed so many family guards, endured for so long, and paid so much, just to summon the existence in front of him. He pressed all the bets like a mad gambler.
The man's inky eyes looked at the old Gaia Soth, and said slowly, "Blood, such a tempting smell. The old conventions, the remnants of Tudor, hehe, after all this time, are still so interesting. โ
"I'll make it happen"
Receiving an affirmative reply, Gaia Soth's tense nerves finally relaxed, and the teenager next to him was full of curiosity.
The man's figure faded into obscurity and disappeared into the underground chamber.
Haiyan Tarot, Toron Chag, and other leaders of various forces in the castle have all appeared in the Soth Manor. They were surrounded by rubble and broken walls, as well as mangled corpses.
"What are they doing in Dorin, it's been so long, why hasn't a single piece of news come back," Hai Yanman said impatiently. Just now, his cold heart suddenly became restless, as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake in the dark, and he was uncomfortable.
The sound of fighting in front of Haiyan is still the same, but the object has been replaced by the guard knights of the Soth family, five yellow-level intermediate knights, three yellow-level high-level knights, and one Xuan-level high-level high-level knight, this is the last line of defense of the Soth family. Originally, there should have been two more Xuan-rank intermediate knights, that is, the dead knight Gehr and the departing traitor York.
After the previous continuous fighting, only five of the nine knights remained. The five people, scarred and covered in blood, never flinched and held on.
"Gaia's old thing has given up on you, if you surrender, I can let you be my guards and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth" Hai Yan looked at the five people, these five people are rare combat power.
"Phew, the Soth family will surely regain its glory", among the five knights, although the leader is over middle age, but the momentum is the most vigorous, he is the only Xuan-level intermediate knight of the Soth family-Shaga, but now he is also the end of the crossbow, the enemy knights' attacks in turn, so that their defense line gradually collapsed.
"For glory," Saga roared resolutely. The four men beside him also roared "For glory", ready to withstand another onslaught from the enemy.
"Kill" Hai Yan gave an order, but before his knights could act, a vague figure, turning from virtual to real, appeared between the five knights of the Soth family and Hai Yan's men.
Hai Yan looked at the ** man who suddenly appeared, his eyes were uncertain, "Who are you?"
"The person who came to kill you" The next moment, ** the man had already rushed into the crowd on Haiyan's side, and he kept shuttling through the crowd, leaving only a white shadow, which was gradually replaced by red, which was red dyed with blood.
"Kill him" The thin young man beside Hai Yan moved, and the shadow entered, chasing the red figure, the dagger glowing with a ghostly light would miss every time, and the red figure quickly harvested the fresh life.
The thin young man stopped, the dagger in his hand growing colder and colder, until at one point, the dagger flew out in an instant, passed through the chest of a knight and struck the red figure.
The ** man who was interrupted from the harvest process licked the blood on his fingertips, and around him were pieces of fallen corpses. Everyone looked at the man covered in blood with fear on their faces.
Hai Yan's face was gloomy and dripping, he couldn't bear to make mistakes one after another, the previous Aya and the current ** man were all mistakes that he had planned.
**The man's image has been significantly different from just now, the sturdy body has become slender and thin after being moistened by blood, and the ordinary fingers have become slender and sharp. He looked at the thin young man in front of him and licked his scarlet lips.
"Your blood is full of pain and despair, it must be a rare delicacy," he said, and the man pounced on the thin young man.
The thin young man looked at the rushing figure, he didn't intend to fight back, besides, he knew that he couldn't defeat the figure head-on.
Sharp fingers swiped, the thin young man's neck veins were cut, blood gushed out, "Just sleep quietly here" He thought silently in his heart.
"Waste" Haiyan is almost crazy "He has only one person, all of them, kill him for me".
Hai Yan roared wildly, but everyone looked at the blood-red figure, and the hands holding the weapon trembled unconsciously. Even those high-ranking knights are stagnant.
Looking at the reactions of his subordinates, Hai Yan didn't have time to give orders again, and the blood-red figure had already appeared in front of him.
One in and one out, the strength of Hai Yan's whole body dissipated instantly, and at this time, he knelt on the ground weakly, looking at the heart that was still beating in the hand of the blood-red figure, "No..." The voice stopped abruptly, and "bang" blood clots splashed everywhere.
Haiyan fell to the ground, he looked at Gaia not far away, and his eyes swelled as he was dying, staring at Tyre beside Gaia. "So the one I've painstakingly calculated is nothing more than a stand-in, Gaia." Haiyan, who was unwilling to roar in his heart, completely lost his vitality.
Toron-Chag, on the side, was shocked and frightened, and his hole cards had no effect on the figure.
"Great, my lord, I was forced by him to come, I can be a dog of the Soth family, greatโ" Before Tolon-Chag could finish speaking, he watched in horror as he flew into the air, but his body was still pinned to the ground.
"The most annoying thing is you two-faced guys" looked at Toron, who was separated from his head, and his blood-red figure was full of disgust.
From the appearance of the ** man, to the result Haiyan Tarot and Tolong Chag, it was only a matter of five minutes. Looking at the morning light on the horizon, the blood-red figure did not pay attention to the subordinates of the two major families who fled in all directions, but returned to Gaia's side.
"The blood is still delicious, but it's a pity that the sun is out, remember our agreement" The blood-red figure slowly dissipated after speaking.
The long night passed, and the sun shrouded the land again.
The five knights stood beside Gaia and Terre, greeting the first rays of the rising sun, their tattered armor glittering.
The turmoil, which lasted from the second half of the night to the early hours of the morning, began with the fall of the Sos family and ended with the downfall of the Tarot and Chag families.
Gaia looked at the rising sun, "The Soth family will surely return to glory".
