Chapter 499 The Tower of the Collapsed Castle (2)
Although there are several dragon knights who followed Andre into Sanoras, their narrow environment restricted their combat in the air. These dragon knights could only stay on the ground and fight like they were trapped in the hills, rather than driving the dragon to fly into the sky to fight. However, this method retained a trace of high-end combat power for the entire team. You should know that the Paladin-level combat power in the entire Templar Knight Order has been lying in the center for treatment, but the ghoul side still has two trump cards. The two ghoul lords who were slowly forced back from a distance are not ordinary Templar knights who can fight against the other. Even the big knight is not the opponent's opponent in the flesh. Only dragon creatures can fight against the ghoul lords with extremely terrifying physical conditions.
It can be said that after losing several paladins, the high-end combat power of the Saint Flame Knights has disappeared. They can only rely on foreign players to fight against the ghoul lords who are constantly approaching, and this foreign player was the character they saved not long ago. The transformation of this kind of character is a little faster. After all, these dragon knights were still rescued the day before, but now they are about to become the ones to save others. However, this is still different from whether they can really save them. After all, the ghoul lord is a real lord level, and there are two battles that appear at once, which is not as simple as one plus one equals two. According to strength calculations, ghouls are ordinary creatures, which means that as long as they are born, they are at the strength of level three or above.
But that is the most fragile time. Just give them some time to grow and eat more flesh and blood to quickly reach level 5 or even level 6. Therefore, the ghoul is the best choice for the dark mage's explosive soldiers. Because their birth does not require too many means, it only requires some corpse poison and some magical means to configure the addiction epidemic. Most ordinary poor people cannot resist this corpse poison and return to the addiction epidemic, so just one addiction epidemic can create thousands of ghouls. It is the most powerful weapon in history to make combat weapons. But corpse ghosts This kind of creature also has its own weakness, which is the constraint of strength improvement. There are very few high-level ghouls, and as few as a thousand ordinary ghouls, one can only be born among them who break through the sixth level strength barrier to reach the seventh or even eighth level. Because such a level of ghouls can no longer rely on ordinary flesh and blood to improve their strength, the basis for their birth requires strong professionals. However, professionals themselves are resistant to corpse poison plague. The higher their strength, the higher their resistance. As long as they are given some time, they can force out ordinary corpse poison.
So because of this, the source of the plague of ordinary corpse poison has never been valued by dark mages, because what they need is not cannon fodder but powerful combat servants. If the cannon fodder has one more range of spells, it will all be lost, but the terrible servants of combat power are different, especially the ghouls above the eighth level can already use the bloody death power in their bodies. Such existence can pose a threat to higher combat professions, and will definitely crush ordinary professions in one-on-one situation. It’s just that such ghouls are too difficult to be born because they require ordinary professions to be It can only be created after the corpse poison is transformed, but the profession itself is resistant to corpse poison, which makes the birth of advanced ghouls fall into a dead cycle. It was not until the war of ghouls that those dark mages used purification methods to process corpse poisons, so that corpse poisons can infect professionals and added alchemy methods so that it can resist sacred power to a certain extent. These changes are actually based on virology in reality, and virology in reality is brought into the game by players, which means that in this war of ghouls, there are actually players entering the game.
The result of the infection of a large number of professions is that the birth of advanced ghouls is possible, and the existence of Ghoul Lord has gradually been created. If ordinary ghouls turn people into monsters, then higher ghouls are more alienated on the basis of this monster. However, when the ghoul Lord is born, this alienation disappears and they transform from monster-like humanoid creatures again. They begin to equip weapons and armor, which allows ghoul lords to gain the ability to use human equipment while possessing the physical strength of monsters. They not only rely on their talents to make a living, but also begin to reliably improve on equipment. Relying on the power and physical condition of ghouls that have returned to state, they can wield armor that is larger than that of ordinary human professions.
Just from Chen Kai's perspective, the ghoul lord who was over 2.5 meters tall was simply a war machine wearing terrifying black armor. In the game, he has seen many unique armors, but even the strange armor is only pursuing more beautiful and fit in appearance.
However, the armor on the body of the ghoul lord in front of him completely subverted Chen Kai's past insight, and the appearance was no match for the word "beautiful". The only thought that flashed through his mind was that this armor was too hideous, too terrifying and too much...
"How ugly! I dare say this is the ugliest armor I have ever seen in my life!" The words of the dwarf Parkon were very direct and solid. Of course, from the mouth of the dwarf who is famous for casting, it is very certain that one thing is certain. That is, the armor on the body of the ghoul lord is really ugly. The black spikes that soar into the sky do not modify their appearance and angle from a beautiful perspective. All spikes are twisted, creating different strange angles. At the same time, the armor covered with spikes looks like...
"This is a shrimp shell! No, no matter how you look at it, they are shells of shelled creatures, it's so ugly! No, Cui Dingk! What do you think about the guy who casts armor? How can you not pay attention to the appearance of the armor? No matter how bad the craftsmanship is, you can't make a lobster shell!" The dwarf Parkon continued to blink down the armor of the Ghoul Lord, but the other dwarf around him also agreed with the other party's point of view. Although the casting technology of the two of them was half a pound to eight! Two, but after working in the blacksmith shop for so many years, there is still an aesthetic view of armor. Although armor was originally used to obtain inspiration from animal shells, after all, no matter how good the inspiration was, it would be improved and processed to meet the requirements of aesthetics and practicality. However, the armor on the body of the ghoul lord in front of me did not have the word "beautiful and practicality". Inside, everyone's first impression of this armor was ugly, then it was cruel and horror.
Although the dwarf's evaluation was very poor, the dragon knights sitting on the flying dragon would not despise the ugly armor because of the dwarf's evaluation. After carefully observing the armor, they became more cautious. Because they found that all the spikes of the armor were polished and emitted a cold light of a scattered man. If they were stabbed into the body by such spikes, it would not only hurt, but only the wounds caused by the spikes can make people bleeding and die. After the spikes pierce into the body, they will not only break the wounds that penetrate the place, but also cause muscles to destroy other places. The skin caused large-scale shattering damage. At the same time, they also saw the light of the vicious dark magic flashing from time to time on the armor. Obviously, the armor was not only attached with magic, but also the vicious dark spells would never feel good once the flesh was broken by the armor. So when the purpose was clearly seen, all the dragon knights and the Templar Knights took a breath. As for the weapons held by the ghoul lord, there is no need to mention them. They are completely a huge weapon compared to the siege weapons. A giant mace that is three meters long also has terrible spears and dark spell power.
"This is really deadly!" Xu Fei used magic detection to check the spell aura on the ghoul lord. Although he could not analyze what kind of spells it was. Each spell light made him feel scared. As for how scared he was, you can see the fate of the ordinary ghoul who was accidentally hooked by armor. The vicious spell was not only effective for the enemy, but also for ghouls themselves. A ghoul of a high level was only pierced and burned into a miserable green torch in less than a second.
The miserable green light continued to reflect on the surrounding ground with the ghoul's hands and feet, illuminating the entire ghoul's front as if it was like a ghost town. The people couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts. Even the two dwarves, whose nerves were as thick as cows, held the weapons in their hands, because the spell was too famous and too vicious.
"Damn! Torlin's Spirit Burning Skill! Where did the dark mages find this taboo spell from!" The person who spoke was not anything else, but Fei Yun, who kept playing soy sauce in the team. As for why Fei Yun recognized this spell, it was very simple because this spell was listed in the fifth-ranked spell bar of the Ten Taboo Spells of the Adventurers Union Manual. Not only did Fei Yun know its appearance and casting image, but Fei Yun also knew the effect it caused, or just in the Adventurers Association
Anyone who has bought the manual and read it knows that it is because this spell is too evil and too notorious. Its effect is very simple to burn the soul. Whether it is a dead or a living person, it will burn it, and there is no burning left from the inside out. Once this spell hits the target, it will burn continuously with the target's soul as fuel, and the most terrifying thing is that it can be attached to a weapon. Therefore, in the past, many people died extremely miserably because of this spell.
When the flames burned, there was almost no point of ash left. As for the soul, it was ignited as fuel. This spell was often used by killers to assassinate targets, but as more and more people know this spell, its power was increasingly criticized. Even gods would not allow such a spell, because the people it killed would not have souls, and what the gods needed was the soul of the believer, so it was banned. As for the power of strengthening the ban after the ban
The deterrent power is very simple! Any mage who uses this spell has only one word to kill no matter where he masters! It is precisely because of this terrible deterrent power that this spell has been drowned in the long river of history less than a hundred years after its birth, but because its fame is too great, it has been written in the records of the Adventurer Guild. This allows players like Chen Kai and others to recognize it all at once. Then, both Chen Kai and his party, as players, and the indigenous people on the side of the Templar Knight, have changed their faces.
Before the battle began, the vicious spell attached to the armor of the Ghoul Lord directly hit the morale of Chen Kai and the others. Although the Templar Knights spared no effort to hit evil, this does not mean that they would not be afraid. For the believers of gods, what they feared most was not death. Death was just a process of souls sinking into hell and waiting for the gods to salvation. What they were afraid of was that they had died and had no soul left. Just like the Paladin Gatu who fell not long ago, the soul completely disappeared and went forward.
There was no chance to believe in the kingdom of gods. So after seeing the ghoul lord watching such a vicious spell, both the Templar Knights and the Dragon Knights hesitated. They were not afraid of death, but they were afraid of death and were not even scum, just like the ghoul who was gradually burned to death by green flames. However, this spell made everyone convinced that another point was that ghouls had souls, that is, those dead people still tiptoed in the body of the ghoul and waited for people to free them from their ugly bodies.
"It's over! That guy is starting to move!" Fei Yun looked at the crowd of people around him, especially when the ghoul lord began to move, everyone, including Chen Kai, retreated a little. This time, he was not only scared by the other party's terrifying roar, but also by the destructive sprint.
However, as soon as Fei Yun's words fell, a Templar Knight squeezed out the crowd and walked out slowly. He was not strong enough, and the armor on his body marked his identity. As the lowest-level member of the Holy Flame Knights, an eighth-level knight was basically just a soldier among the powerful knights. However, the soldier jumped out of the crowd at the moment when everyone retreated and walked towards the Ghoul Lord with firm steps.
"Vino! What are you doing? Don't you want to live anymore?" A small team leader of the Holy Flame Knights yelled at the knights who walked out of the crowd. As his companion, he didn't want to see his friends running to die, so he said he would stop him, but the other party's answer made everyone in the Holy Flame Knights stunned.
"Living? Why live? My wife died, and my three-year-old son died! I have nothing to nostalgic in this world. My biggest purpose of living is to avenge them! Hatred is my only motivation for staying in the Knights, and revenge is my only motivation for survival. Now the opportunity has come, I can go to hell and say to Toby that his father is dead on the way to revenge him!" The Templar Knight named Vino said calmly, but his behavior was very fierce, because after he finished speaking, a golden flame slowly rose on his body, which was the flame of burning souls. At this moment, the Templar Knight had completely abandoned life and death. He wanted to rely on burning souls to fight against the terrible dark spells, because the soul was burning, it was impossible to be ignited again.
"Yes! Why am I afraid? Am I here to take revenge? The enemy is already in this city. As long as I kill this obstacle, my brother will even avenge my hatred?" A Templar Knight slowly talked to himself when he heard Vino's words. His last sentence was said to his friends around him. Although he did not get the other party's response, he had followed Vino's steps and rushed towards the slowly accelerated ghoul lord, and strong golden flames began to emerge from his body.
"Of course, brother! But it's not me who avenged you, but someone else! Remember to leave a place for me on the way forward. The journey to hell is too dangerous, let's go together!" The friend of the Templar Knight did not agree, but took the same action as him or in that case, a dozen Templar Knights left and ignited their souls and rushed towards the Ghoul Lord.
"Is this considered suicide?" Fei Yun asked quietly in the team channel. Looking at the scene in front of him, his heart suddenly hurts. Hate is really hard to say. Sometimes he makes people angry, but sometimes it makes people sad. Although some religions warn people to let go of the hatred in their hearts, there are a few that can be done. In the game, the gods also have their own emotions. To put it bluntly, they are just stronger people. Therefore, in the game, there is no such thing as not being allowed to revenge, and there was even a god of revenge in ancient times.
"It should be considered a generous death!" Xu Fei looked at the Templar Knights fighting with their soul power, and a strange emotion slowly appeared in his heart. At this moment, he felt that the Templar Knights began to fill up, which was the feeling of seeing a real person instead of watching the characters in the game. In a trance, he even felt that he was in a game world, but in the end he was sure that he was in a game because data was still emerging in his vision.
"Boom!!!" With a loud noise, the Templar Knight Vino, the first to rush out of the team, wrote a tragic scene with his life. He urged his own fighting spirit explosion to produce a terrible impact, and hit the body of the Ghoul Lord with a heroic scene. The terrible fighting spirit energy instantly destroyed most of the dark magic power and sharp spikes, providing the best chance for the people behind to defeat the other party. Of course, it was not the only way that he thought of this method. Several continuous explosions came from another ghoul Lord. The lives of the Templar Knights burned in the fighting spirit energy ball that rose into the air. They used their bodies and souls to pave the way for others, and at the same time left a little comfort to their hearts. At least they avenged their relatives at the last release of their lives. As for the remaining hatred, they knew that their comrades would definitely write down their own share.
Chen Kai and the others did not know that they had witnessed the emergence of a very unique tradition of a legendary Knight, that is, the Holy Flame Knights have never been captured. There are only the Holy Flame Knights who died in battle, and there is no captive Holy Flame Knights. At the same time, another tradition of the Holy Flame Knights is that they are completely hostile to the Dark Mage. In the future, there is only one prerequisite for joining the Holy Flame Knights, which is to independently kill a dark mage. The emergence of this tradition has made the Holy Flame Knights almost a killer of the Dark Mages. On the other hand, it also led to the entire Holy Flame Knights joining the entire Holy Flame Knights being extremely powerful. After all, most of the people who can become dark mages will not be pigs, and there will always be some powerful means.
When the last ghoul was killed, Andrei, who was rescued on a stretcher, cried. Because of this battle, he lost thirty-seven more comrades, and thirty-seven warriors above the Dark Knight were buried in this land shrouded in darkness. Half of them did not find complete corpses, and the only ones left were fragments of armor that proved their existence and scattered broken swords.
