Chapter 228: The Dark Wizard Who Disappeared
"Ahh
"No, don't!" Seeing the lightning sword in Murphy's hand, Catherine hurriedly pushed away his sword-holding hand, opened her arms to stop in front of Rogge, and shook her head anxiously, Murphy was stunned for a moment when she saw this, and put down the sword in her hand at a loss.
"Good girl made a bad decision!" said Rogge, who was standing behind Catherine, suddenly lowered his head, kissed her on the ear, and whispered.
Catherine looked back in surprise and saw him walking towards Lilith and saying, "If I had become a vampire just now, I would have bitten you to death, I wouldn't know who you were, newborn vampires are the most hungry and bloodthirsty, and few people's will can compete with this nature." ”
"You...... So you're all right......" Catherine said, looking at Rogge with surprise and delight.
"A stupid girl is a stupid girl, I already knew that the bad wolf was playing tricks!" Lilith laughed as she sat on the dragon's back with her little belly in her arms.
"That's why I always say you know too much!" said Rog as he leaned over and pinched Lilith's little face.
"Lady Louise said that only children who know more can eat candy!" said Lilith, pouting with her face up.
"Uh-huh, that's not necessarily, you don't have any candy to eat!" Rog touched her little head, turned back to Grace who was guarding the treeman, and said, "Grace, please help fill in that big pit, we'd better not let these dead corpses here." ”
The green dragon let out a long roar, spread its wings and flew to the edge of the cliff, cutting the earth and rocks on the mountain wall and filling it into the mass grave, and the werewolves also used their claws to dig the soil to help fill the pit from the other side.
Rogge and the others stood on the body of Jim, the tree man, watching the skulls in the pit gradually being buried by the earth and rocks, silently mourning the dead in their hearts, at this time Antonio quietly walked to Rogge's side and said, "It seems that your medicine is still very effective." ”
"The old man always has something unexpected, and as a druid master, he always has something amazing. Rogge shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
"Since you have such a medicine in your hand, why don't you use it to save those who have been bitten by vampires?" asked Antonio, staring at Rog's side.
"The bitten person?" Rogge glanced back at the serious face under the mask he lifted, and said unhurriedly, "You mean David and his friends who are convicted?"
"And, of course, the people who are hanging from the shelves. Antonio added.
"Who do you think I should save?" Rogge smiled and asked, "I only have such a small bottle of medicine here, the amount of medicine is only enough to save one person, who do you think I should give it to?"
"At least you can save David before he becomes a vampire. Antonio was enraged by his indifferent reaction, and he glared at Rogge and said in a majestic tone, "We have already saved his life before this, you shouldn't just give up on him!"
"It was he who gave up on himself, not me who gave up on him. Rogge shook his head nonchalantly and said, "As I said, I only have this bottle of medicine, and we have so many places to deal with vampires, I can't waste it on a stupid person who is bent on dying!"
He waved his hand to stop Antonio, who was about to speak, and continued: "I must leave this bottle of medicine to an important person, such as you, such as Murphy, like Catherine, such as myself, and that is why I can stand here and talk to you now......"
"If we were really bitten, would you really give that potion to one of us?" Antonio asked, staring at him distrustfully.
"Well, I'm a little hesitant when you say that, maybe I really won't!" Rog smiled, turned and jumped off the treeman, and slowly walked towards Grace, who had completed the task of filling the pit, Antonio stood there and looked at his back, sighing angrily and helplessly.
"This guy is really cold-blooded and unreasonable sometimes!" he said, glancing back at Murphy standing on a branch behind him.
"He's always been like that, I remember what he did outside of the Serpent Residency when he was on the Ice Island, and his coldness was terrifying to me at times. Murphy gazed at Rogge's back side by side with him and sighed, "What will such a man bring to the woman who loves him?"
Antonio glanced back at him curiously, followed his gaze and fell on Catherine, thinking of Catherine's actions just now, he nodded suddenly, looked at the worried expression on Murphy's face, patted him on the shoulder clearly, turned and walked away.
After burying the mass grave, everyone rested in place, and then Rog and the werewolves climbed the treemen, and Antonio and the surviving knights of the Order still rode griffins, leaving the burial place along the way, and embarked on the road back to the Valley of the Dragon.
By this time the sky had gradually begun to lighten, relying on the knights to lead the way in the air, the team smoothly advanced to the valley mouth of the buried bones, because of the night of fierce fighting, the people were very tired, the little furball had shrunk in Rog's broken hat and fell asleep, and the others sitting on the tree man also leaned on the tree man and fell asleep.
When Antonio, who led the griffon team to open the way, woke up the sleeping people, they found that the sky had dawned, and their team had returned to the Dragon Valley, and the Dragon Valley presented in front of them at this time was very different from when they left.
Near the entrance to the cave where the Knights and Priests were stationed, many other troops had been stationed, and the Elven High Knights, led by their commander Shilon, rushed to reinforce them.
Shillong sends greetings to Rog and Antonio to the Elven Queen Sophia and the eldest princess Eva, and tells them that all the Black Elves in the Elven Territory have been cleared and the remnants have fled to the neutral zone to hide.
The leader of the Torch Regiment conveyed to Rog the greetings of the Dwarven King Odin and the Prince Thor, and told Rog that the Dwarven King's injuries had been completely healed, and the centaurs in the Dwarven Territory had been driven into the Death Swamp under the leadership of Prince Thor's army, and the Dwarven Territory was no longer in trouble.
At the same time, the head of the regiment also brought a message from the dwarf king Odin, who said that he had received a letter from the elven princess Eva, and the eldest princess's attitude made King Odin very appreciative, and he wrote a handwritten reply to express his condolences to the dead elf king, and expressed his willingness to abandon his past suspicions and form an alliance with the elves forever.
Hearing the news of the reconciliation between the two clans, Rogge and the others were very happy, especially Rogge secretly felt relieved for Eva in his heart, believing that the reconciliation and alliance between the two clans would bring a little comfort to her heart of apologetic torture because of her father's murder.
In addition to the elves and dwarves, the bear king and the wolf king in the forest were ordered by the great druids to send a large number of beasts to the dragon valley to serve as patrol and guard tasks.
"Elizabeth suffered a great defeat in the Bones Field, and she should not pose a threat to the Hallows in the short term, so we can only focus on William. Overlooking the scene from the high hill of Dragon Valley, Rogge said to the leaders of the armies of the various tribes.
"There are so many blockades in the Dragon's Nest, no matter how many tricks the dark wizards have, it is impossible to take away the holy weapon under so many blockades. Shilon, the head of the Elven High Knights, responded.
"That's right, even if they dodge our eyes, there are still two regiments of guards of the Holy Order under the cliff where the Golden Dragon King lives, and there are still a large number of golden dragon guards inside and outside the Golden Dragon King's lair, even if the dark wizard turns into a fly, don't even think about getting half a step close to the holy weapon!" said the leader of the Dwarven Fire Gun Regiment.
"Don't be careless, William's cunning is beyond our expectations, I have been thinking about what weaknesses our current defense still has these days, once there is a mistake and William catches the flaw, it is likely to fall short. Rogge cautiously admonished the crowd.
"Did you find any problems?" asked Antonio, concerned.
"Not yet, but I've always remembered the advice I received in Pan's cave: a spark can burn an entire forest, and I've always wondered if there is any point in our impregnable line of defense that will become that spark?" said Rogge, with a serious expression.
"Is there any news from Master Augustine about William's movements?" Murphy reminded from the side.
"I spoke with the Eagle King's heralds this morning, and they gather news from the birds throughout the forest every day, but I have never found any information related to William, including the Void Hunter. Rogge frowned and looked around at the crowd and said, "This situation is a bit abnormal, everything is too quiet. ”
At this moment, a silver dragon knight suddenly climbed the cliff along the main road, came to Antonio's side and presented a golden letterbox, and reported loudly: "Commander, His Majesty the Holy Emperor!"
Everyone was surprised when they heard this, Antonio took the letter and opened it, took out a piece of gold paper with exquisite workmanship, looked down for a moment, his face suddenly changed, and turned back to Rogge and said: "Not long ago, an unidentified black-robed man invaded the Holy Imperial Palace, and His Majesty the Holy Emperor summoned me to return to Bahrain to protect the safety of the Holy Artifact!"
"Could it be that William's actions in the Sun and Moon Forest are just releasing smoke and fog bombs?" Rogge couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, the two regiments of the Holy Society were in the Valley of the Dragons, and the imperial capital of Bahrain was empty, in case William attacked on a large scale, with only the garrison of the Holy Emperor and the imperial capital, I am afraid it would be difficult to keep the third holy weapon safe.
"In any case, I will leave for Bahrain immediately, His Majesty the Holy Emperor will leave the High Priest and the Priesthood Corps here to assist in the defense, even if William does invade the Dragon Valley, I believe that the Priesthood Corps and all of you here will be enough to deal with it. Antonio couldn't wait to say to everyone.
Everyone nodded in agreement and sent Antonio away, and the chief of the knights said goodbye to everyone, boarded the griffin and led the knights to the imperial capital of Bahrain, and all the areas originally under the responsibility of the knights were guarded by the priesthood.
A week after Antonio's departure, everything in Dragon Nest was extremely peaceful, and William and his Void Hunters were never heard from.
Just when Rogge was wondering about this, suddenly one day, Lilith, who was playing with Grace outside the cave, ran in in a panic and shouted: "Bad wolf, bad wolf, Sister Grace was captured by the big ugly dragon!"
