Chapter 73 Death in battle
——[Faith (purple): Absorb the user's will, cognition, and emotion into power, and the size of the power is equal to the faith]

Feeling the abyss-like power coming from the sword, Abel was sure, and looked at the tide of monsters, with a soaring aura emerging from his body.

There were more monsters at night, and waves of monsters came one after another, without giving Abel a chance to rest.

After a long battle, the armor made of obsidian and mithril also showed cracks, as if it would break apart in the next second.

Roar!
A distinctive monster cry sounded, and Abel looked up. It was a wolf-shaped monster, emitting a powerful coercion from its body.

Tier [-] monster!

It finally appeared. It is impossible for a monster wave of this scale not to have third-order monsters.

The wolf-shaped monster stepped out of the forest, and flames were suddenly wrapped around its body. It let out a low growl again, as if it was suffering pain.

Seeing this scene, Abel's hands holding the sword tightened, and his eyes became firm. Although he didn't understand what happened, he might not be without the possibility of victory.

Just as he was thinking this way, more than a dozen figures identical to the wolf-shaped monsters appeared from the depths of the forest, and they were also third-order existences!

They turned into flaming demon wolves and stared at Abel. One of the demon wolves roared, as if they had received an order, and other monsters around them came to surround Abel.

"Haha, come on."

Abel looked up to the sky and laughed fearlessly, and his face became firm in the next second. The big sword burst into a strong light in his hand, and the light filled Abel's whole body, beating like a flame.

However, he couldn't pay attention to these, because the monsters came to kill them.

-

mansion.

Everyone gathered in the hall, but there was no movement outside, presumably Thomas and the knights cleaned up the incoming monsters.

The attendants and maids chatted quietly in twos and threes, and cast their gazes in the direction where Joyce was standing from time to time.

The power of the acting lord is so great, and the exercise of power by the acting lord represents the trust of the lord.

In the crowd, Matt looked at Joyce, with a different expression on his face.The acting lord is not his grandfather?
But this woman.

Then, Matt looked at Rosalind again. He had learned from his father Blake that his younger sister Rosalind had participated in the competition for the surname 'Arnold', and that it was Grandpa Egbert who personally sought the opportunity from the lord.

He was suffocating in his heart, but he couldn't run to question his grandfather.The pain, only he himself knows.

Among the crowd, Melittoya looked left and right as if she was looking for something. Irene was next to her, holding the sleeping Xiaobai in her arms. Seeing her appearance, she asked, "Little Meili, what are you looking for?" ?”

"I don't seem to see Carl." Melittoya said worriedly.

"Are you talking about that little knight? I saw him at the gate of the mansion before." Teresa walked over and said, her eyes fell on Xiaobai in Irene's arms.

"Hey, curious puppy."

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Teresa felt a power similar to magic in Xiaobai.

"It's called Xiaobai, which is the name given by little Meili." Irene laughed.

In the mansion, Carl was Melittoya's only peer, and Melittoya was still more concerned about him, so she asked again: "Sister Teresa, do you know where Carl has gone?"

Teresa shook her head, "Sorry, Miss Melittoia, I don't know."

"That's it."

Melittoya's face darkened at first, and then she smiled politely: "Thank you for telling me this."

the other side of the hall.

"Master Hardy, Mr. Jeff, please don't leave the mansion until it's safe." Joyce said to the two in an apologetic tone.

Hadey waved his hands and said in a loud voice, "Don't look down on me, I am also a shield warrior, and I am also good at fighting."

Jeff also smiled and said, "Give me a little time, and I can release magic."

Hadey glanced at him and didn't speak, after all he was his own
Joyce said a few more words to the two of them, and then walked towards Nancy. She was in a daze in the corner of the hall, and no one spoke.

It's not like Hardy has Jeff, or the Cavaliers go and drink with him.

Nancy is relatively quiet, except for Ron, only Irene can chat with her, and Melittoya also wants to get close to her, but Nancy can't stand her being too enthusiastic, and she has been staying in the alchemy workshop Inside, there are very few opportunities for contact with people.

"Miss Nancy."

Joyce said the same thing again, reassuring Nancy not to worry.Not far away, Egbert watched Joyce rushing to appease everyone, and finally understood why the lord trusted her so much.

He handles everything and never makes mistakes. He is indeed a trustworthy person.

"Well then, Miss Nancy, I won't bother you."

After Joyce finished speaking, he was about to leave. At this moment, a black shadow broke through the wall, and the fierce aura shocked everyone in the hall.

It's a monster!
A three-meter-high monster broke in, and it waved its giant palm and slapped Nancy fiercely in front of it.

"careful!"

Hadey's reaction was already very quick, but the distance was too far, the monster's slap landed on Nancy's back, and it was knocked flying with a heavy blow, and her earrings were knocked off by the huge impact force.

Seeing this situation, Hardy's eyes were about to burst, he raised the round shield and pushed it up, the monster was blocked by him, and he soon discovered that the monster was a second-order existence.

Everyone stayed away belatedly, but Jeff had already taken out his wand and recited a spell. He is a second-level magician and is fully capable of killing the monsters in front of him, but it will take time.

When Hardy blocked the monster with a shield, Joyce moved Nancy, who was seriously injured, and Teresa asked, "How is she?"

"It's not very good."

Joyce said with a bad face.

Everyone's heart is heavy.

boom!
The wall on the other side of the hall was also knocked open, and the three-headed monster slowly entered the hall, along with other monsters!

Everyone's faces were ashen, maybe they would all die here today, some people collapsed to the ground and began to cry.

Egbert stepped forward and stood in front of Melittoya. He was the housekeeper of the house and was named Arnold. Even if he died, he should die before his master.

The eyes of the monsters converged, and suddenly they froze, and rushed towards the crowd.

Suddenly, a huge red fist appeared in mid-air and smashed towards the monster that was rushing.

Bang!
In an instant, a monster turned into blood, leaving no bones left.

Teresa stared blankly with her wand up. She saw with her own eyes that the hairpin on Melittoya's head turned into a fist and killed the monster in an instant.

Magic tool?
This thought suddenly appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but think that the baron still loves his sister very much.

The fist-guessing didn't end, the hairpin sometimes turned into a giant palm, and sometimes turned into a giant fist, the giant palm blocked the monster, and then killed it with another punch.

The shocking scene left an indelible memory in everyone's heart.

All three monsters died tragically, leaving only the previous monster to confront Hadey.

Because the main target of this monster was not Melittoya, the butterfly hairpin on her head did not perform 'guessing'.

"I can't hold on any longer! Run!" Hadey clenched his teeth, his arms trembling, as if he would be crushed by the monster at any moment.

brush!
A beam of sword light suddenly appeared, the monster fighting Hadey was decapitated by a sword, and a figure appeared in front of everyone.

"Sig! Why are you back, where is the lord?" Egbert asked in surprise.

It was Sig who came, and soon, Ron, Taylor and Carl appeared at the door of the hall.

Ron looked at the scene in front of him, his brows were furrowed, he didn't speak, he scanned the crowd, and his eyes finally fell on Nancy, who was seriously injured and unconscious.

Seeing the lord appearing, everyone who had escaped followed his gaze and found Nancy's strangeness. From her pointed ears, it was not difficult to guess that Nancy was not a human race!

"My lord."

Ron looked indifferent, and said: "Mr. White, please be sure to cure her."

Hearing his name being called, White immediately saluted, "Master Baron, I promise to cure Miss Nancy."

When Hadey saw this scene, his heart was touched.

Afterwards, Nancy was taken to treat her injuries. Everyone in the hall shuddered, seeing the lord's cold expression, they dared not make a sound.

A few hours ago, Ron was still discussing refugee management methods with Viscount Gordon at the Viscount's Mansion. Knight Darren suddenly came to report that a man named Carl had come to see Baron Arnold.

Afterwards, Ron rushed back after listening to Carl's brief statement.

"My lord, it was my dereliction of duty."

Joyce stepped forward, bit his lip and said.As the acting lord, she has to bear the heavy responsibility for such a big event in the territory.

"Tell me what happened, and what did you do?" Ron said calmly, but everyone felt the suppressed anger from it.

Joyce told Ron the development of the matter in detail, and she even told the strange things she found about the monsters.

"...I asked Mr. Abel and the others to intercept the monsters that invaded the territory, causing the mansion to be destroyed, Miss Nancy to be injured, and Miss Melittoia to be put in a dangerous situation. This is all my responsibility."

As she spoke, her face became extremely pale.

Ron's expression was a little slow, he looked at Joyce who blamed himself, and said, "No, your choice is correct."

Returning from Viscount Gordon, Ron met the guards and Thomas who were cleaning up the monsters in the territory. Thomas told him that Abel went to the Black Valley Forest alone to intercept the monsters.

Because of this, Arnold's Domain survived.

The sneak attack of the four monsters was an accident, no one could have expected that they would hide and attack the mansion.

Hearing Ron's words, tears flashed faintly in Joyce's eyes, she lowered her head and said nothing.

Not long after, Thomas and the others came back and were shocked to find that the mansion had been destroyed. They came up to him and said to Ron, "My lord, all the monsters in the territory have been cleaned up."

"Ah."

Ron nodded slightly, and said, "Sig, go find Abel."

"Yes!"

Seager had this idea long ago, but he couldn't act without Ron speaking.After saluting, he rushed out of the mansion.

Afterwards, Egbert ordered everyone to tidy up the mansion. After being trampled by monsters, most of the mansion was turned into ruins.

"Miss Teresa, go and rest first, we are here." Diana said.

She asked the maids to tidy up a few intact rooms, and the servants didn't care, but the lord and the others had to have a place to rest.

Teresa looked at Ron's back, was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Thank you, Ms. Diana."

"You are too serious." Diana led her out of the hall.

"My lord, I led them to inspect." Thomas was frightened to death when he heard that the mansion was attacked by four monsters.

Ron waved his hand lightly, Thomas and others bowed and retreated.

Everyone performs their duties and does what they should do.

Ever since Ron came back, Melittoya has been clinging to him, refusing to leave his side. What happened just now really frightened Melittoia.

Ron lowered his head, Melittoya's face and the butterfly hairpin were still stained with blood, he reached out and wiped it lightly, and asked in a low voice: "Are you scared?"

Melittoya shook her head, but her little hand was tightly holding the corner of Ron's clothes.Ron chuckled, "Very well, have a pudding with Sister Irene, and then go to rest."

Irene understood, and stepped forward to take Melitia's hand, "Little Melie, let's go eat pudding, don't disturb the young master."

It seemed that this sentence had an effect, Melittoya let go of her hand, and left with Irene with tears in her eyes.

Looking at the busy figures of the servants, Ron seemed to think of something, and hurried out of the hall, heading towards the vegetable garden.

"Who?!"

"It's the baron! Bastard, put away the thing in your hand!"

As soon as he entered the gate of the vegetable garden, Ron was confronted by a group of people with farm tools, and he took a closer look.

Good guy, those planting experts are holding shovels and shovels in their hands, looking like they are desperately guarding the vegetable garden.

Fortunately, the monster did not come here, otherwise it would be thanks to the gift of nature.

Seeing that the vegetable garden was safe and sound, Ron was relieved. He told the group of experts that the monsters had been cleaned up and were safe.

Leaving them alone, Ron shook his head and left.

In fact, there is faith in everyone's heart. It may not be God, it may not be a certain person, or it may not be a specific thing, but it exists.

People who have faith will sacrifice their lives for it.

On the other side, Seeger rushed to the border of the Black Valley forest and saw a scene that made him tremble.

The ground was dyed red, piled up with corpses of monsters, and a scarred man stood on the top. He inserted a big sword into the corpses of monsters under his feet. His eyes were looking straight into the distance. monsters.

"team leader!"

Seeger yelled, but Abel didn't look back at him. He yelled a few more times, but still didn't respond. At this moment, he felt a little bad in his heart.

Sig jumped to the side of Abel, just glanced at him, his pupils trembled, and he couldn't believe it.

Abel, die in battle!

"No!"

At this moment, Sig was boiling all over, exerting his ability to the extreme, and the temperature in his body continued to rise, gradually reaching its peak.

raging!

The space around him distorted, as if an invisible hand was kneading it. Seeger suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the forest, revealing an uncontrollable murderous aura. The next moment, his figure disappeared in place.

An hour later, Seeger appeared covered in blood. He picked up Abel's body and said in a trembling voice, "Captain, I will visit you every year."

In silence, he walked towards the mansion step by step.

Deep in the Black Valley forest.

A terrifying voice echoed in the forest, "Lilith, are you going to break the contract!"
