Evil skulls infiltrated from all sides, wandering aimlessly through the camp, but the soldiers in their path were reduced to dried corpses without realizing it.

Baron Jin Yanhua's army was too stretched, so he was assigned by Ryan to be in charge of the relatively relaxed first half of the night, but he didn't expect that the enemy couldn't wait to show his fangs at night.

The first to notice the anomaly was Ryan, the skull was so weird that even he couldn't spot it at the first time, and when he sensed the soldiers at the gate falling to the ground, he knew that the war had begun.

Ryan jumped down from a height, his spiritual power spread out like an endless tide, everything around him became so clear that he could even feel the presence of ants.

He soon found the skull that did not hide his whereabouts, hundreds of people have lost their lives in a short period of time, and the soldiers who found this anomaly were immediately panicked, they were only temporarily caught on the battlefield, and suddenly encountered such a strange method, and their morale was on the verge of collapse in an instant.

Ryan raised his head and let out a long roar: "The rebels are attacking at night, and the whole army is facing the enemy!" ”

After giving the warning, Ryan drew his longbow and fired several arrows in succession, which accurately hit the skull wandering in the air, and the skell let out a terrible howl, twisted and dissipated into a black smoke.

Xiyue, who had been on guard, also came quickly, and one by one the fierce magic arrows killed the remaining skeletons, although these skeletons had strange attack methods, they were extremely fragile, and they were all quickly killed.

But Ryan was not happy at all, because the first wave of the enemy's attack turned their camp upside down, and the morale of the soldiers who guarded the gate of the camp had collapsed, resulting in a series of riots.

"Don't mess up, don't mess up, hold your weapons tightly and be wary of enemies outside the camp!

Those who dare to retreat will be killed, those who dare to disturb the will be killed, and those who dare to disturb the morale of the army will die! Allen slashed a soldier who was about to flee to the ground with a knife, and shouted at the panicked Jin Yanhua leading soldier with a bloody horizontal knife.

Hundreds of people were shocked by him for a while, and they were forced to retreat in fear, and at this time, the soldiers of Kanna were finally assembled, and rushed to the gate of the camp with neat steps under the leadership of Levi and Kavin.

"Woohoo"

Under the dark night sky, a stream of inky light fell from the sky, and they blended perfectly with the night sky, and in an instant they landed in the middle of the horses and antlers set up outside the camp.

With a violent explosion, most of the horses were swept away, replaced by large potholes.

This was followed by a dense crowd of rebels, numb, ragged, armed with all kinds of weapons and surging up in a disorderly manner.

The soldiers led by Jin Yanhua, who had been frightened, suddenly collapsed completely, making a noise and commotion, if it weren't for the fact that the retreat at both ends was blocked, they would have dispersed in a hurry.

"Courage and Protection"

A golden circle of light appeared under Ryan's feet, spreading in all directions like water waves with a majestic fighting spirit, and the originally timid and turbulent soldiers finally slowly stabilized.

Knights such as Eren and Kavin also quartised knightly combat skills, giving these soldiers the courage to fight the enemy, which is the difference between knights and magicians.

Even a rabble, led by knights, can have the courage to fight the enemy to the death!

"Warriors, follow me to the death!"

Ryan raised his sword and shouted, and the soldiers who had gradually stabilized finally turned around and put on a loose formation to prepare to meet the enemy, although their bodies were still trembling slightly, but there was already a breath of qi in their hearts to support them.

Alan knew that this qi would not last long, and he couldn't let them take the lead, so he hurriedly commanded Kaven to lead the soldiers led by Kana to the front.

At this time, the rebels had come to the camp, and the soldiers in the front row filled the trench outside the camp with their lives, and the soldiers in the back row stepped on the corpses of their comrades without saying a word and charged forward silently, so indifferent that it was terrifying.

"Crossbowman, three volleys, three volleys!"

The crossbowmen unswiped the bowstrings in their hands and shot deadly arrows at the rebels, as blood flowers bloomed like gorgeous roses, and groups of rebels fell on the way to the charge.

The blood did not terrify the rebels, but accelerated their attack. Under the dark night sky, the rebels could not see their heads at a glance, and rushed up in waves.

Ryan only felt a chill in his hands and feet, it was an organized and premeditated attack, and he couldn't help but think of one word: "Divert the tiger from the mountain".

Chels led the main force to support the baggage troops, and as soon as he entered the night camp, he was attacked by such an army, which was a coincidence and a liar.

And he had recognized their strange attack, which was a sign of a fallen priest, who was originally a priest of the church, but was lured into the abyss by the evil god, and the magic he controlled became an evil secret art.

Fallen priests are all extremely powerful existences, even in the Council of Evil God Apostles, they are also real high-end combat power, such a character appears here, no wonder he can hide the scouts sent by Ryan and quietly come outside the camp.

After a few rounds of arrow rain, the rebels had already rushed to the front, and the Ryan side had a defensive advantage, relying on the camp, with spears and shields, blocking the steps of the rebels, and began to tear and kill without fancy blood.

"You, the soldiers with the golden swallow flower collar also go up from the flanks, and you must resist no matter what." Allen summoned two officers who led the soldiers with golden swallows and said sharply.

Although the officer's face was not very good-looking, he still resolutely carried out Allen's order, after all, he knew in his heart that he was just an outcast, and if he wanted to live, he had to hold their thighs tightly.

The battle ahead was in full swing, and the sound of tearing and killing pierced through the sky, but Baron Jin Yanhua did not think of fighting, but quietly left the camp with his henchmen and knights.

From the beginning, he didn't plan to wade into this troubled water, but he was not lucky enough when he drew lots, and in order to preserve his strength, he pulled a bunch of militiamen to make up the numbers before leaving.

If the occupation is smooth, he will follow the main force to fight a tailwind battle and fish in troubled waters. If the situation is unfavorable, he is always ready to smear oil on the soles of his feet, as for the thousand militiamen, he can take them with him, and if he can't take them away, he can be regarded as making the best use of them to block the enemy.

It's just that this baron would never have thought that this was the stupidest decision he had ever made in his life......

After several hours of fierce fighting, the rebels retreated after leaving the corpses in one place, and Ryan and the others could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

But Ryan didn't relax in the slightest, but became even more uneasy, the rebels seemed to be attacking fiercely, but in fact they didn't do their best, at least the fallen priest didn't make a move.

If he unleashed a large-scale secret technique to attack the camp, not to mention the direct loss, the defense of the gate would definitely be lost, and the casualties would increase a lot.

But the other party didn't, and Ryan didn't know what he was planning, so the uneasiness in his heart became more and more condensed. In view of this situation, he also kept a hand, and the hole cards of the cavalry troops and the thousand machine crossbow were not exposed......

——————

On the other side, the sky was white, and Chels, who had traveled under the starry night, finally found David Bella and Baron John's grain and grass baggage troops along the established route.

When he saw Chels and the others, David Bella was very surprised, and said suspiciously: "Your Excellency, what are you?" ”

Chels looked at the well-formed grain transport troops, and his heart suddenly felt a sigh, and he hurriedly told the ins and outs of the matter.

Who knows that David Bella's expression was ghostly after hearing this, and he said something that made Chels's eyes dark: "We have not been attacked from beginning to end, and I have only sent a knight to report to you on the trip." ”

One word popped into Chels's mind: "Sound strikes west." ”

"If the camp is in danger, immediately return to the camp to defend it." Realizing the plan, Chelston turned his horse's head and hurried back to the defense with his troops.

But if you want to rush back here, it will take at least a day and a night......

The tearing continued, and over the course of a day, the rebels launched a dozen attacks, all of which were repulsed by Lane with his equipment and geographical superiority.

But Ryan didn't dare to take it lightly, because the fallen priest on the other side was too quiet, and the silence was terrifying.

"If you can't go on like this, you must understand the intentions and movements of the fallen priest." Repelled another round of attacks, Alan said in a deep voice.

"Based on the distance and direction of the spell, I can probably guess his location, and I'll go there myself." Ryan stood up, intending to risk his life.

Levi and the others were shocked, and immediately objected, Ryan was their coach, how could he personally spy on the enemy?

"I'll go, you're the boss, you can't be in danger." Alan said with a resolute face.

"You're just a mid-level knight, what's the difference between going and giving away someone's head?" Ryan shook his head, the strength of the fallen priest is at least at the level of a high-level or even a great magician, isn't Eren going there to send it?

Just when several people were arguing, Xiyue waved her hand and interrupted them: "Don't argue, of course this kind of thing should be handed over to a great adventurer like me, I'll just go and wait for my good news." ”

Ryan looked at her steadily, Xiyue looked at him without flinching, and after a long time, Ryan said in a deep voice: "Okay, then I'll leave it to you." ”

Xiyue smiled and gave him a reassuring look, she knew very well in her heart that she was the most suitable person as the only two high-level transcendents.

Alan turned around wordlessly, clenched his fists tightly, this was a shame for him, he had cultivated for so long in vain, but he couldn't even spy on the military!

As night fell, the enemy launched a new offensive, which was a good opportunity, and Xiyue was suddenly ready to leave.

Just as she was about to act, Ryan grabbed her, met those bright eyes, he stuffed the Thousand Machine Crossbow and the Magic Crystal into her hand, and said seriously: "The conversion machine can only run three times in a short period of time, and any more will be scrapped, make good use of it." Safety is the priority, and I will be on the outside to answer you. ”

Xiyue casually hung the Qianji crossbow on her waist, and without saying anything, a few of them disappeared into the night.

Ryan took a deep breath and said to Levi beside him: "Let the cavalry team prepare, if the enemy army shows signs of retreating, bite them, you must drag them here, otherwise Xiyue will be very dangerous." ”

……

Xiyue deftly bypassed the battlefield to the speculated position, and sure enough, she felt a powerful extraordinary power fluctuation in a hill.

She cautiously concealed her figure and approached, and when she looked around, she found that there was an altar under the hill, and there was a black-robed man sitting next to him to worship something, revealing an evil aura.

There were no rebel troops around, only a few black-robed men in uniform stood in all directions.

According to the attire, she quickly recognized that the one next to the altar was the fallen mage, only to see him holding a beautifully carved metal jar, and said in a puzzled tone: "How did it take thousands of dead people to collect this bit of soul power?"

However, it will be enough to awaken the soul of the Holy Lord for a short time, and it will be easy to uproot this camp when the time comes......"

"The soul of the Holy Lord?" Xiyue's pupils shrank suddenly, if it was the one she thought, then this time the matter was really big.

The fallen priest placed the jar on the altar with a look of fanaticism, and then solemnly "please" a box the size of a head, and respectfully set it aside.

"Wake up, Lord Mortal Walker, your follower AKS has prepared a fresh sacrifice for you......"

Accompanied by AKS's chanting, strange fluctuations came from the altar, and faint whispers came out.

Xi Yue's face turned a little pale, she could now be sure that it was the Holy Lord she was thinking.

"I have to stop him!"

Xiyue carefully took off the Thousand Machine Crossbow and aimed it at the altar, if it couldn't be stopped, then everyone would have to die here.

With the pull of the trigger, a streamer shot out.

AKS, who was respectfully welcoming the awakening of his soul, was suddenly shocked and shouted, "Bold! ”

He flew out directly, blocking the arrow with all his might, and the powerful force made his heart shake, but fortunately the altar was fine.

Xiyue exclaimed in surprise: "Great Priest! ”

Seeing that nothing could be done, Xiyue immediately pulled back, but the furious AKS would let her go, and used the strength of his whole body to release a secret technique that hit Xiyue in the back.

Xiyue suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood as if she had been struck by lightning, but she didn't dare to stay at all and staggered away.

"Catch her, I'm going to make her worse than dead!" AKS screamed, and the black-robed people around him immediately pursued the seriously injured Xiyue......

In front of the camp, Ryan commanded the troops to tear and kill as much as they could, and a loud noise caught his attention, and his face suddenly changed, it was the sound of a thousand crossbows, and Xiyue was in trouble.

It didn't take long for another loud bang to be heard, and the second arrow was used, and the sound was a little closer, indicating that she was rushing to the camp.

Just as Ryan was praying for Xiyue, the third arrow was also used, and it wasn't much closer, and it was very likely that she was entangled, and her condition was very critical.

At the critical moment, Ryan didn't care much, and said to Allen: "Xiyue is in trouble, I have to pick her up, and you take over my command." ”

With that, Ryan turned over and mounted his wildebeest, and went out of the camp in the other direction, and hurried in the direction from which the noise came.

The moon-bright eyes came to his mind again, and he murmured, "You have to hold on." ”
