The necropolis that appeared before Edward's eyes was a converted man's castle, and in addition to the walls and castle covered in cobwebs and filthy death elements, there was also a towering "chimney" that constantly emitted black smoke that shrouded the entire forest of the dead in a fog.

When Edward's troops arrived, the castle was already filled with all kinds of undead creatures, and in addition to those seen in the Forest of the Dead, there were also corpse witch kings on the city walls, numbering more than fifty!

What made Edward even more troublesome was that within the city walls, there were terrifying sounds of horses neighing and dragon groans, which were probably the high-level troops of the undead forces - the Terror Knight and the Ghost Dragon.

As if to confirm Edward's conjecture, a pure black dragon head protruded from the city walls, and its empty eyes looked at the human troops approaching the city as if it were a delicacy.

"No, that's the Dragon Lich. Adela said in horror, "That's the existence that surpasses all the top classes, I've only seen it in the literature, I didn't expect it to appear here?"

"How well-informed, pastor. A man dressed in a splendid aristocratic costume appeared on the city wall, with gray skin, blood-red eyes, pointed ears and sharp canine teeth, all indicating that this was a full-grown vampire.

"Human, my name is Shante, came to this forest a year ago and established my home. The vampire didn't attack immediately, "This is my territory, and I don't think I'm going out of the confines of this forest to harm any human power." ”

"I just want to live here quietly and do my research. And now, you are slaughtering my children and coming to the city of my torment, what do you want to do?"

Vampire Shante's voice was magnetic, his expression was calm, and although his gaze was full of blood red when he looked at Edward and the others, there was no murderous aura.

"We are the Northern Expeditionary Force of the Order of Holy Ondore, this is our King His Majesty Edward Lee, and I am Adra. Adela was the first to step up and said to the vampires on the city walls, "Now, our Holy Ondore has established a kingdom in the south, and wants to open the way to the north and Erathia, and your castle and territory have appeared in front of us, and it will be up to you to decide whether to fight or make peace." ”

Adela has an excellent extravagant technique, and her ability to read words and looks is her strength. Now, the diplomat lady has discovered that the undead hero doesn't seem to want to go to war.

"Oh, do you think you can beat me with just a few of your low-ranking troops?" Shante's tone was full of disdain, but his face was a little sad, "Why are humans so self-righteous? I used to work hard for humanity, but in the end they gave me to the vampires and made me the immortal I am now. ”

The more Shante spoke, the more angry he became, and a hideous expression finally appeared on his calm face.

As his anger grew, the dragon lich opened its jaws and spewed out a black cloud at Adela.

Edward's eyes narrowed, and his figure flickered in front of Adela, and when he opened his hand, there was a holy light enchantment.

The skull-sized black cloud loomed right in Edward's enchantment, letting out a whining ghostly cry that spread out and dyed all the air around it black.

"Hmph, the power of death. Edward, who was enveloped in this black cloud, snorted heavily, and the powerful holy light that erupted instantly dispelled the black cloud with powerful corrosive power.

"Huh, is this the power of Cloudsdale?" Seeing this, Shanter's angry expression immediately fell silent, and he looked at Edward in surprise.

Adela involuntarily took a few steps back with her horse on her back, her face full of horror. If that black cloud had hit her, she would have felt like she would have turned into a skeleton.

"That's what you never do to the humans?" said Edward, pulling out the Dragonlord star, "I believe what you said before, because before entering the Forest of the Dead, the people who lived outside the forest had never heard of an undead coming out of the forest to attack them. For this reason, I now give you three choices: first, to leave here with your troops, second, to serve my holy Ondore, and third, to be killed by me. ”

"Looks like I have a lot of options? huh...... The teacher of justice, how nostalgic. "It's the first time I've heard of a human being actually letting a vampire bring his troops to the allegiance, His Majesty the Holy Ondore, if I'm an evil vampire, don't I have the first and second options?"

Shante's tone was full of sarcasm, but Edward, who was very observant of human nature, still saw a hint of remembrance in the vampire's eyes.

"I also want to be like you, living in the warm sunshine. Shante looked at the dark canopy in the sky and said, "But that's not possible, countless years of failed research have taught me that humans can easily be turned into vampires or undead, but vampires can't become humans at all." ”

This shows how precious and fragile life is. ”

"In that case, why do I continue to keep my human heart?" Speaking of this, Shante's expression became hideous again, "Your Majesty from Cloud City, I choose the third one! Now, you come and kill me!"

"As you wish!" Edward didn't continue to talk nonsense, with wings behind his back, he rushed to Shante alone.

The Corpse Witch King on the city wall raised his staff in unison, and the clouds of death all hit Edward, crashing into Edward's Holy Light Barrier, causing a violent explosion. A thick black cloud enveloped Edward, and squeezed desperately into the cloud like a mosquito with blood.

"See, I said that life is precious and fragile, even if you are an angel on high. Shante looked at Edward wrapped in black clouds with disdain and sighed.

Seeing this, the troops of Saint Ondore sent out a commotion, only Adela did not panic, and the bullets suppressed the soldiers, staring closely at the black clouds in the sky. She didn't believe that His Majesty, who was extremely powerful in her eyes, would be killed by a blow from more than fifty corpse witch kings.

"Not necessarily, in the presence of the Light, even the forgotten can be restored to life. ”

As a startled voice came from the black cloud, a huge arm of holy light sprang out of the black cloud and grabbed Shante accurately. Then, the rapidly expanding Holy Light Enchantment scorched the surrounding black clouds as if it were like a flame scorching cotton wool, revealing the unscathed Edward inside.

"Vampire Shante, I'll give you one more chance now. Edward pulled hard, and the panicked Shante, who was caught by the hand of the Holy Light, grabbed him in front of him and said, "Choose the second one, you still have hope of returning to the human race." ”
