"Who the hell are you?" Daron held Alicia in his arms with his left hand, and pointed his sword at the shadow. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Unlike just now, the shadow now seemed unusually honest. It was as if the outside world could not reach his ears, and his eyes remained on Alicia's body.

"Are you the master of this magic mountain?" Answer me!" Seeing the shadow ignoring him, Daron raised his voice and asked in a fierce voice.

At this moment, the shadow seemed to notice that someone was talking to him, and he turned his head to look at Daron, and then lowered his head to look at his outstretched hands. The holy sword had been sealed in its sheath at some point, and the black shadow in front of him was contrary to the fierce attitude just now, and there was no desire to attack at all.

The stone pillars that rose to the sky slowly descended after the master lifted the magic power, and the trembling soldiers fled from the black shadow as soon as they returned to the ground, hiding far away.

Looking up again, the shadow's gaze met with Alicia again, and an unspeakable urge choked on Alicia's throat. She wanted to open her mouth to call out the name of the black shadow, but then she was taken aback by her own nonsensical thought, how could she know the name of the black shadow.

"Huh!" After a pause of staring, the black shadow spread its full wings, and a faint black mist rose in the middle. Daron hugged Alicia tightly, hunched over to defend herself against an attack that could come at any moment.

Surprisingly, however, the shadow did not take any action to attack. He jumped on the spot, and as soon as he turned, he waved his wings and flew quickly into the distance, gradually turning into a black dot until it disappeared.

Everyone was overwhelmed by the sudden turn of events, but after a few moments, cheers began to ring out among the soldiers. The soldiers who didn't know why, just saw that after Alicia made that high-altitude jump, things started to turn for the better. Some even began to whisper to their teammates that the reason why the Black Shadow withdrew was because of Alicia's work.

Daron was also confused by the dark shadow's reaction, and he first helped Alicia to the side, and then took the greatsword behind him. Sid walked over, touching his chin and looking Alicia up and down:

"I said, little girl, what did the monster say to go away, what did you do to him?"

Alicia was very wronged by this question, although she felt that she did have some inexplicable feelings for the black shadow, but to say that the black shadow withdrew because of her, she herself felt that this matter was a bit ridiculous. At this time, Daron closed his eyes and thought for a while, and suddenly had an expression of sudden realization:

"It must have been because he noticed that Alicia's blood didn't taste good, and he felt that he had no appetite, so he went home. ”

"Smack!" an unceremonious punch came from the side, and Alicia directly knocked Daron flying. Ah, what terrible strength! Sid on the side suddenly became more afraid of the girl than of the dark shadow.

"Okay, ignore him...... Uncle Sid, I'm going to have bad news for you. ”

Patting the dust off her hands, Alicia said to Sid.

"How?"

"That dark shadow just now is not the undead prince we are looking for. ”

Seeing Alicia's decisive judgment, there must have been a reliable basis, so West Germany motioned for Alicia to continue.

"I found out when I was in contact with him just now. Alicia's expression was serious, and her gaze began to move towards the depression in the middle of the blood lake, "That black shadow also has the same black serpentine mark on its neck as the other monsters. ”

"Oh?!" Daron walked over from the side, rubbing his head, as if surprised, "how powerful does that necromancer have to be to be able to enslave such a powerful thing." ”

"Finally, the mark is gone, so the shadow is free from the master's control, and suddenly there is no reason to fight. Under Alicia's calm analysis, everyone understood the reason for the black shadow's sudden retreat.

"So that's the case, then, the real owner of this mountain, must still be watching us somewhere. West Germany also moved his gaze to the huge skull that stood in the center of the depression.

"How many people are still alive?" said Talon as he looked around.

Most of the soldiers who can now stand up by the lake are also scarred. After a few battles, only a quarter of the original number of people survived.

"Do you think it's worth it for a mission, West Germany?" Daron looked at the corpses of the soldiers nearby, and a solemnity welled up between his brows.

"They are all mentally prepared for this......"

"Are you mentally prepared to die?"

"Before I came, no one knew what it was like, so everyone was quite conscious and followed me. ”

Daron knew that his friend was not in a good mood at this time, so he didn't say much. He looked at the lake and said calmly:

"Forget the mission or something, Sid, I think you should stop in moderation now. ”

Sid raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard this, and in an instant, his face was full of anger,

"Do you mean to shed the blood of those dead brethren in vain?!"

"You promised me before you went up the mountain that if I said give up, you would give up. ”

"It's all come to this, why give up?"

Daron sighed meaningfully and said:

"Sid, you should have already discovered, including the black shadow just now, a monster that can control so many undead creatures, and we can't defeat it with our strength. Before we have yet to fight, we should go down the mountain immediately, so that we can withdraw from the mountain while the losses can be controlled. ”

"How can you know that we can't beat you without fighting? ”

"That would only add to the new sacrifice!"

Sid's hands clenched into fists excitedly, and Daron also saw something strange in his expression.

"What's wrong with you, Sid? You weren't so uncool before, what is forcing you to complete this task?"

Under Daron's questioning, Sid's expression was a little moved, and then, he slowly relaxed the strength of his fist, and said slowly:

"Darlon, you know I have a daughter, right?"

"Well, it's Tessa, right, I'm 14 years old now. Daron didn't know why Sid was mentioning his daughter at this moment, but he answered his question.

"Nope. Sid suddenly lowered her head, and her bearded face looked vicissitudes, "She will never have her 14th birthday." ”

"Sid, ......" Daron and Alicia had a bad premonition when they heard this.

"Well, she was killed last year. ”

Sid's words were like a bolt from the blue, shocking both Daron and Alicia, who did not know the facts.

Daron put on an apologetic expression and said:

"I'm sorry, West Germany, I don't know ......"

"It's okay, I just didn't have a chance to tell you. "Last winter, she received a notice to pick up a letter from a neighboring town, which was a birthday present from me. According to the villagers, she was on the way and met bandits......"

Daron and Alicia had sadness and pity on their faces.

After the mission was completed, I returned home and wanted to send belated birthday wishes to my daughter. But I was greeted by a heavy black coffin. ”

The "West German ......" Daron had been separated from West Germany for many days, and he didn't have time to ask about the recent situation in the past few years when they reunited, so he only knew this shocking fact now. It was better for him not to know what words of comfort to say.

"Ever since I came to Necronomicon Mountain, I know that there is indeed an evil necromancer here. In the past, he has mutilated countless girls my daughter's age, and if he is not eradicated today, countless young girls will be slaughtered in the future. I know the pain of losing my daughter! In order to prevent more people from suffering this tragedy, I must settle with that bastard today!"

After listening to West Germany's bitter complaints, Daron finally understood the reason why he was so persistent. Aside from Sid's reason, it was actually the necromancer's cruelty that awakened the painful memories of the loss of his daughter, so he transferred his vengeful anger to the mage. Murder always requires a righteous and awe-inspiring reason.

Standing for a long time, Talon said with a painful face:

"West Germany...... I understand your feelings, but if you just insist on going your own way, everyone will probably be buried for you. I don't think we alone can beat the undead prince who controls the undead legion. ”

"Daron ......" Unexpectedly, Alicia stood in front of Sid and said to Darlon, "I think that with your martial arts, you should stay and help Uncle Sid." ”

Does this kid even know what he's talking about?!

Daron shouted inwardly. Alicia may not be able to see through West Germany's true motives because of her young age, but Daron can't put it through in front of her friends. So at this time, Alicia must have felt that West Germany was doing a good deed that would be very helpful to the people in the world. In fact, the girl's sense of justice did make him feel a little moved, but more of it was anger towards the unreasonable Alicia. In this way, Daron turned this anger into words and said:

"It's none of your business!"

When Alicia heard this, her anger swelled up, and she shouted at Darron:

"Do you think we should just let it go, this is a 100-year mission, and in a hundred years, we don't know how many people have been brutally murdered. Just look at this mountain, those zombies must have been living people before they died. But one by one, they were buried here, and after they died, they had to become slaves of others. Don't you feel pitiful?"

Looking at Alicia who was righteous, Daron was even more annoyed, and his tone became more and more intense:

"What about the pitiful, there are so many poor people in this world, should I save them one by one?"

"But here we are, and that's what we can do. ”

Hearing the words "within his ability", Talon couldn't bear it at all. Alicia had no idea what danger they would encounter if they continued to go deeper. Daron, who tried to persuade West Germany to return, was intercepted by Alicia, and now the situation has developed in the worst direction.

"Alicia, there is such a thing as a sense of justice, sometimes in front of reality, it is like a peanut, and when you pinch it, it will break. The most important thing is how to make the judgment that best suits the situation according to reality. ”

In Alicia's eyes, Daron at this time was just a coward who had no martial arts but escaped from the battle, so she said firmly:

"Based on the current situation, I have to stay. ”

Seeing that Alicia had made up his mind, Daron couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, and he shouted at the back of West Germany in front of him:

"Sid, is this what you want, are you happy to have a 16-year-old girl accompany you to your death?"

Sid's shoulders trembled slightly, a little struggled, a little hesitant, just as he turned to say something......

"Needless to say, you all have to die. A voice like the Nine Ghosts resounded out of thin air, echoing above the top of the mountain.

"Damn, it's too late. Daron had no choice but to draw his sword to fight.

The soldiers were still hopeful that Talon would be able to convince their boss to die down while they were arguing. But now, apparently, there is no turning back.

In the lake of blood facing the front of the skull, huge white objects floated up. They rise from the bottom of the lake and float to the surface. It turned out to be huge white ribs!

On the surface of the lake in the middle of the depression, a bridge of white bones made of ribs suddenly appeared. A male figure in silver armor emerged from the mouth of a huge skull, his face as dry as tree bark, and his long pale hair fluttering slowly as if floating in the water. In his hand, he held a black long sword, and the black mist on the long sword was filled, exuding a surging aura.

The man was wrapped in a strange aura of death, and he walked slowly from the bridge of bones to the crowd with unhurried footwork, and the zombies on the depression followed behind like his servants.

"Finally...... appeared. The battle-hardened West Germany was also in a cold sweat in the face of this person's strong oppressive force, "You are the prince of the undead, Shugner, right?"
