Chapter Twenty-Four: Helen in Blood
Late at night.
The moon gradually turned from round to wane, and the silver light still shone on the earth.
West side of the North Wind Collar, Wild Wind Village.
The villagers in the village have rested, and the village is quiet, only the occasional dog barks to break the silence.
At this moment, in the forest near the cemetery outside the village, a wisp of gray mist suddenly appeared.
Trample!
Trample!
Trample!!
The crisp sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and the dogs in the village seemed to sense something unusual and quieted down.
An undead knight in a black robe quickly walked out of the gray mist, his helmet with a pale dead light circling, his gaze sweeping over the cemetery.
Then, he raised the black greatsword in his hand, and a wisp of blue-green death power appeared on the greatsword, and his low and hoarse voice sounded: "Get up! Fight for me! ”
The turquoise power of death spread like a tidal wave, and when it entered the cemetery, the wind howled with the power of death, and the forest in the darkness shook like a ghost.
After a moment of silence, a low roar sounded, the ground in the cemetery shook, and the white bone arms suddenly poked out of the soil, and the next moment, the white bone undead turned over the soil and walked out.
They roared and slowly approached the undead knights, as if they were surrounding their own kings.
The undead knight put down his greatsword, his gaze swept over the undead, and finally looked up at the silent village, pulled the reins, and walked towards the village.
At this moment, a very beautiful magnetic voice sounded: "This time the list is really a big loss, I didn't expect to meet a fifth-order undead." When I go back, I'll have to ask that kid for more money. ”
Another cold voice sounded: "Sister, you have signed a spiritual contract with His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"Tsk...... Blood loss! ”
The two voices got closer and closer, and from the entrance of the village, two women in black robes walked out.
Beneath the cloak are two beautiful faces.
It was Helen and Yelan.
The Undead Knight looked up at the two of them, his pale eyes flashing under his helmet, and a hoarse voice rang out: "Who are you?" ”
Helen raised her eyebrows, looked at the undead knight, narrowed her eyes and said, "I should ask you this, as an undead, but in the human realm, you abuse the death spirit art and cause the death plague?" When we humans have no one? ”
As she spoke, Helen stepped forward, and wisps of crimson flames slowly ignited around her, and the wind accompanied by the flames blew up her cloak hood, and her long red hair flew, and under the flames, Helen's face was full of coldness.
Feeling Helen's powerful aura, the power of death around the undead knight surged, and the white bone war horse under him neighed and took a step back.
The pale light in the undead knight's eyes flickered, and his hoarse voice fluctuated in disbelief: "How can it be ......?" In such a weak aura environment, how could a fifth-order spirit be so powerful? You have inherited the ancient bloodline?! Who are you?! ”
Helen's face was cold, her right hand reached out, and the flames around her body danced as if they had life, condensing into a crimson spear.
With the spear in hand, Helen's momentum became even more terrifying, and wisps of incomparably powerful momentum turned into a fierce wind and spread in all directions.
Because the cold brought by the power of death was instantly dispelled, the weak undead spontaneously ignited on the spot and turned into a ball of fire.
In the face of Helen's hell-like momentum, the white-bone war horse retreated again and again, neighing constantly.
Helen raised her red lips and smiled, "Will you be scared if you die?" ”
The undead knight didn't answer, he tugged on the reins, turned and ran.
At this moment, a crimson streamer flashed, instantly passing through the back of the undead knight.
The flames engulfed the undead knight in an instant.
"No!!" The hoarse roar of the undead knight rang out from the flames, full of unwillingness.
Soon, however, the sound stopped abruptly, and his body fell to the ground with the bone warhorse, turning to ashes in the flames.
As for the undead next to the undead knight, they had all spontaneously combusted long ago, and there was not a single one left.
Helen glanced at the clumps of ashes on the ground, thought for a moment, and said, "This undead knight...... It doesn't seem to be the undead of the Pale Country. ”
Yelan, who was not far away, was a little puzzled: "Sister, how do you know?" ”
Helen's eyes flashed, and she said with a smile: "The guy in the Pale Country, you won't guess that I have inherited the ancient bloodline because of a little breath...... Although he guessed wrong. ”
"And who is this undead knight?" Yelan asked.
"I don't know. There are too many inexplicable guys in this world, and they're all dead anyway, whatever. Helen shook her head.
Then she thought of something, clasped her hands to her chest, and said with a dissatisfied face: "But no matter what, we have lost a lot this time!" The fifth-order undead knight is still a guy who wants to cause the death plague, but it can't be sent away with just two thousand gold coins! Really, that little prince didn't expect his heart to be so black, and he actually coaxed me to sign the spiritual deed! ”
Yelan said helplessly: "...... Sister, you were the first to propose to sign the spiritual deed. ”
Helen's eyes widened in disbelief: "Huh?!" Did I mention it?! ”
Yelan nodded: "Hmm." ”
"Ah......hh How can I be so stupid! Helen covered her head in despair.
At this moment, Yelan said quietly: "A few days ago, the royal family issued a reward, as long as the adventurers deal with the abnormalities of the North Wind Territory, they can receive the reward according to the situation, and there are many adventurers in the North Wind Territory these days." ”
When Helen heard this, she became even more autistic, and she was a little unwilling: "...... We should count it too, right? Isn't it Lanlan? ”
Yelan said helplessly: "We signed the spirit contract at the beginning, what do you think, sister?" ”
Helen: "......"
She felt that she had lost tens of thousands of gold coins, and she was about to cry.
I knew that she shouldn't have signed any spiritual contract in the first place! How many luxuries can you buy?
Seeing that Helen fell into self-isolation, a gentle smile appeared on Yelan's cold pretty face, and she said, "Sister, let's continue to go to other places to see, didn't you say that we are very reputable?" It's not too far from Kekeluo Village, so let's stop by and talk to His Royal Highness the prince when the time comes, maybe he himself is willing to give more money? ”
Helen's eyes lit up: "That's right! We're just stopping by and talking to His Royal Highness the Prince! Let's go! ”
…………
Morning.
Lu Ming woke up to the sound of birdsong.
After stretching his waist, Lu Ming began to cultivate.
The aura gathered with Lu Ming's operation, and the rich aura circulated around Lu Ming's body, alarming Jiang Yuge, who was resting and recovering in the fish tank.
She looked up in the direction of the bed, a little surprised.
What a fast aura absorption rate! Is this guy so talented?
Then Jiang Yuge snorted lightly in his heart, if it was before, he might be stronger than her, but now...... She has awakened a part of the ancient bloodline, and her talent has been sublimated, and she is much stronger than this guy.
But for the sake of this guy's good talent, after he becomes a slave, he will be her guard by the way!
After a while, Lu Ming stopped his cultivation and started fishing.
He has a little expectation in his heart, yesterday he had a bumper harvest in Kekeluo Lake, and today he is fishing in the brain hole, how can it not be bad, right?
His spiritual power penetrated into his brain to explore, and it didn't take long for his spiritual power to feel some familiar touches and some surprises.
Unexpectedly, the first time it was a white ball of light?
Sure enough, I was lucky today!
