Chapter Seventy-Three: Flame and Revenge
Tririan wakes up in the air, he is pinched in the hands of Arianus, and he has no strength to resist at all. Kane motioned for Alinus in the sky to bring him down. Kane grabbed his neck with one hand, and with just a little more force, Tririan's neck was pinched off by Kane. But he didn't intend to stop there, he used the terrifying power of blood magic to wipe out Tririan's soul.
Erasing a person's soul is the most cruel punishment, meaning that he cannot go to bliss, nor can he go to hell, he will become a ghost of this world and endure the devastation of loneliness forever. Kane stood under the burning ruins, the anger in his heart not gone. He let out a cloudy breath and walked towards Bailly's territory.
"Looks like tonight is destined to be a rough night." Ivan followed him, and Neroth was in charge. He shared hatred for Bailly, but the killings still made him uncomfortable, and the knight's wails echoed in his ears. They are under the command of their rulers, they cannot do what they want, and those who dare to disobey their lords are punished, and their livelihood is a problem.
Perhaps they were forced to do so, Nelus wavered in his heart, but soon he became firm again. Whether they did it of their own will or not, it is a fact that they had blood on their hands, and they also killed many innocent people. If they die, they can only be blamed for their inferior skills, and if they are weak, they will be trampled underfoot, and they will either become strong or creeping like a humble creeping.
Kane chose the former, killing all the enemies in his way, and the next one was Bailly. After killing Bailly, there were Hammer's guys, and Kakirech was also on the death list. There is no other reason, just because this guy used him to experiment like a guinea pig.
At this time, Bailly did not know that danger was coming, and when Kane and the three of them arrived, the patrol guard happened to change shifts. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kane hid in the shadows under the walls and slipped past. Neroth used arcane teleportation to teleport himself to Bailly's mansion, triggering the Eye of Magical Monitoring. The guards sounded the alarm, and the servants changed their gear and fought like soldiers. Although their combat effectiveness is not very strong, at least they can delay a little time when dealing with some unexpected situations, and fight for the hope of survival for their masters.
Neros didn't expect that Bailly, a little viscount, would have such a powerful eye of monitoring, which even a sixth-level mage could detect. He searched the corridor for a place to hide, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find anyone to hide. Soldiers armed with axes and spears spotted him, barricaded him in the corridor, and when he was in a dilemma, Nelus chose to take action.
The Assassin ran to his home to assassinate him, and Bailly was furious to death, and the Viscount, who had been fighting all his life, could not stand such provocations. Ignoring the dissuasion of the others, he put on his armor and walked towards the place where he was surrounded at this moment.
The golden magic spread across the ground, darting like a golden snake to the soldiers' feet, and then turning into a circle, the golden magic growing upwards and closing, forming a golden cage that enveloped them. Even if the soldiers slashed at it with their weapons, they couldn't leave a trace on the golden magic. Golden swords fell from their heads, and the group of soldiers were stabbed to death by the golden swords. Wails resounded throughout the manor.
When Bailly's mage arrived, he saw corpses all over the floor blocking the hallway, forming a wall. Cold sweat flowed from their foreheads, hoping that the entire intruder inside had run out of magic after the battle they had just had. One of the mages tentatively unleashed a fireball, only to be met with a golden sword condensed by magic. The sword pierced through the mass of corpses and stabbed the mage, and the strongest shield in his life could not block the terrifying blow, and the golden sword strangled his body.
The three surviving mages screamed, and then smashed all their spells on Neroth together, just when they thought Neroth had been killed, the situation was beyond his expectations. They were greeted only by a rain of golden swords, and they were unsurprisingly beaten into a hornet's nest. Neroth walked out of the corridor and continued to attack the knights who had come to him.
Bailly's bodyguards and hired knights followed him out of the gate, only to meet Kane. He ordered his knights to launch an attack on Kane, whose eyes were red and the demon's blood qi rose to its highest. Each of his swords reaps a human life.
The hired knight fell in front of Bailly, and he angrily rebuked the retreating guards and pushed them out. "Don't back down! Whoever dares to retreat, I will kill whom! You bastards! His roar really stopped some of the timid soldiers. As soon as the heavily armored knight arrived, Bailly's confidence was greatly increased, and he rushed towards Kane with his men with his sword.
Instead of frightening Kane, the hundreds of heavily armored knights provoked Kane's anger. This group of iron hooves is Bailly's confidence, and he knows their strength very well, with heavy armor on his body, his defense has increased greatly. The Demon Sealing Sword slashed at this armor, but it didn't break through their defenses with a single sword, but Kane was slashed a few times. He hurriedly retreated.
"This armor has magic resistance, and the forging material should be filled with magic stones, so you have to be careful." Arunor reminded him, "Blood magic is still somewhat useful to them, if you can't beat it, use blood magic, the blood power of these people is a great supplement for you." ”
"Understood!" Kane's eyes lit up and he stood up, completely oblivious to his injuries. He began to use powerful blood magic, and the red blood energy surrounded him, like poisonous snakes spitting letters. This posture did not frighten Bailly, who did not know anything about magic, only knew that no amount of magic could be used against the magic armor made of this heavy investment.
This armor is a finished product that has been tested with the help of the mages in the church, and the power that the magic attacks of the fifth-level mages can exert on it are only seventy percent. The physical fitness of these soldiers who can wear this suit of armor is not like that of ordinary people, their bodies have been more or less modified, and they can also withstand some magic damage. In this way, the actual damage on them is not much, at least it can't directly kill them.
But Kane's blood magic is different from other decent magic, and these viper-like blood magic are extremely penetrating. Normal magic attacks from the outside in, and blood magic eats away at the living from the inside out. The scarlet blood enveloped this group of heavily armored knights, and they were pervasive and seamless. The power of blood destroyed their bodies, and these seemingly powerful knights quickly shattered like rotten wood. Knights continued to fall in front of Bailly, and the heavily armored knights he was proud of fell one by one.
It was then that he realized the strength of the young man in front of him, and he left his men to flee for his life alone, and he ran to hide in the houses of his territory, trying to find a way to escape before dawn, as long as he could return to Carrot City, there was still a chance to escape.
He came to the alternate hiding place known only to him, and it contained many of his treasures, including many magical armor, which his son had found for him from the Academy, and which cost him a lot of gold, and he was still angry at the time, and scolded these mages and arcanists for being a bunch of vampires.
Now it seems that the money spent at that time is still useful, and in this case it can buy him a glimmer of hope for life.
Bailly put on his rudimentary-looking magical armor and smeared sword oil on his sword to make it sharper. The shadow of Kane lingered in his mind and became his nightmare. He had no impression of the guy who suddenly attacked him, there shouldn't be an existence with evil magic in his list of enemies, it was rare that other enemies hired killers to kill him?
It seems that this is the only explanation, otherwise it doesn't make sense, how can an evil mage come to kill a viscount canonized by a dynasty for no reason? Since he was hired by someone else, he was the one who did the money. Bailly decided to be prepared for three things, and if the man found him, he would buy him off with gold. Of course, he will not be idle in the meantime, and he will send a signal to the city of Carrot to seek help from the emperor and the church.
The last thing to do is that if the man can't be bought with money, then he will gather his people here to protect him. Most of the people living in this place are serfs, everything they have belongs to the lord, they can't refuse the lord's demands on them, even if they order them to pay with their lives to die, they don't dare to disobey, these serfs are dogs he personally tames, extremely loyal. This is what he once proudly said.
"I'm going to make this guy look good! Whoever it is, I'm going to get you caught, and then a thousand cuts! Bailly's fear dissipated, and the third hand was ready to restore his fearful heart to its original confidence.
Bailly took out his long-sealed liquor from the cellar and poured it into his mouth with a bang, the spirit was a bold man, and all the warriors believed in it.
Kane added several wounds to his body, he let Bailly escape, first deal with the knights and mercenaries here, they are all stumbling blocks that prevent him from killing Bailly, and it is also Bailly's net worth, as long as they are all killed, Bailly is a toothless tiger, and killing him is easy.
Bauer, Una. He was impressed by the crimes they had committed against him, and this time Kane made them pay an even heavier price. His blood magic drained the blood from their bodies, leaving them to die in despair. Bauer, who likes to peel his skin, was infiltrated into his body by the black mist of Alinas, his skin separated on its own, and during the whole process, he couldn't make a sound, and his soul trembled.
"What about Bailly?" Neros asked, dragging his scarred body.
"He can't run away, my blood magic can find his place, and soon I'll be able to find him. Enjoy the hunt, the prey will crumble in fear, and I will not only kill his body, but also break his soul. Kane could see a red trail in his eyes, and that was the direction that blood magic had given him.
"Do you want to stay here and clean up the remaining remnants of the army, or do you want to go with me to capture Bailly?" Kane hung the Demon Sealing Sword behind his back.
"They don't have any threat anymore, they've killed everything that should be killed, and all that's left are the old, weak, sick and disabled who have no combat effectiveness, and they can't make any waves. I'll go with you to Bailly, it's safer to have more than one person. Neros said, "Ahem. As soon as he finished speaking, he coughed, the battle just now was very draining on him, and the magic power in his body was almost exhausted.
"You can rest here first." Kane had to go to Bailly on his own.
Neros tried to stop Kane, but Ivan stopped him from calling someone, "It's his hatred, let him settle it himself." ”
Neros looked at Ivan, then at the figure that had disappeared in the flames, and he nodded. There are some things that really need to be solved by myself to untie the knots in my heart, and I can't live in the past forever.
