king of the castle

Chapter 35 Surrounded

Compared with Roger's slightly crude short sword, the quality of this long sword is much better. 【】The length of the long sword is nearly double that of the short sword, and the attack range also increases accordingly.The cold light of the sword is very sharp at first, and the thick sword spine can make the long sword not easy to break, and the power in battle is naturally much greater.

Roger suddenly slashed the long sword against the short sword he was using.When the two swords collided, sparks flew everywhere, and an obvious gap appeared on the short sword, but the long sword was intact.This made Roger like his new weapon very much. After carefully hanging the long sword on his waist, he left the secondary space of the castle.

The new weapon made Roger very happy, and it also gave him greater confidence in his ability to achieve something in this world.It's just that Roger still doesn't know that the biggest crisis is approaching after he came to the Emma Continent. If he is not careful, he will fall into the sand, and it is even more impossible to make some achievements.

Roger, who was completely unaware of this, continued to lead everyone to the Linton Pass, getting closer and closer to the destination.It was getting late that day, and everyone camped under a cliff.

There is a plain in front of the cliff. Although there is no cover around, the tall cliff can somewhat block the cold wind at night, and it is also the most suitable place for camping nearby.

As usual, Roger found a place to practice swordsmanship by himself after the others settled down.Since he got the outline of dragon swordsmanship, he practiced hard every day, and his personal strength has also improved significantly.According to Castle Hub, Roger's current strength is close to the Black Iron level, which is already slightly stronger than the spear militia.

Encouraged by this good news, Roger has also worked harder in his recent practice, increasing the number of slashes from [-] to [-] per day.When he finished all the practice, it was already midnight.Roger just wanted to go back to rest, but found that there were many light blue bright spots that were rising and falling regularly a few dozen steps away.

"What's that?" Roger observed curiously for a while, and then immediately realized that something was wrong. These blue dots were the soul fires in the eye sockets of undead creatures!

Roger glanced around subconsciously, and found himself surrounded by blue light spots.On the dark land, there are as many blue bright spots as there are stars in the night sky, forming a frightening scene.

"Damn it!" Roger cursed inwardly and then warned loudly: "There are undead creatures! Everyone is ready to fight!"

While others rushed out of the tent in a hurry, the spear militiamen under Roger had already formed a semi-circular defensive formation in front of the cliff.Mike and others lit the firewood piles that had been arranged around the camp in advance, hoping that the flames would prevent undead creatures from approaching.

Under the uncertain light of the fire, Roger and the others finally saw the undead creatures slowly approaching, and they couldn't help crying inwardly.

The incoming undead creatures are mainly plague zombies. The appearance of this undead creature is similar to ordinary zombies, but the whole body is covered with a layer of green plague cloud.Any living creature that comes into contact with the Plague Cloud becomes infected with the plague, sickens and dies within a short time.

Therefore, the plague zombie is also the most troublesome type of low-level undead creatures. Even if these guys can't beat you, they can disgust you. Many people with much higher strength than them eventually died of the plague.Fortunately, Roger's subordinates are all spear militiamen, and their weapons are long enough to keep the distance from the plague zombies as far as possible.

All the fires around the camp had been lit, but the plague zombies were not affected and still surrounded the camp.Under the dark night, hundreds of plague zombies surrounded the camp. Even if Roger and the others managed to break through, they would definitely die from the deadly plague.

"It's miserable this time." Looking at the large number of plague zombies, Roger couldn't help crying inwardly.But now that he is the leader of the crowd, he can't show fear in front of his subordinates, but encourages others loudly: "Everyone, don't panic, as long as you obey my orders, you can hold the camp!"

Encouraged by Roger, everyone suppressed their fear to some extent. Several men formed a second line of defense behind the spear militia with weapons, ready to deal with the undead creatures rushing into the camp. bonfire.Especially when fighting undead creatures like zombies, flames can often have a very good killing effect.

Although Roger succeeded in arousing the fighting spirit of others, he also knew that the current situation was not good for his side.Unless a miracle happens, it is impossible to break out of the siege of plague zombies without losing a single person.

The only thing that comforted Roger was that he had trained a lot of pike soldiers in the past few days, and he could barely form a line of defense around the camp.If the number of spear militiamen was still as small as it was a few days ago, Roger would certainly not be able to escape the fate of being transformed into an undead creature today.

Adhering to the undead creature's fighting style of fearlessness, the plague zombie rushed towards the spear militiamen without stopping.The movement speed of these undead creatures was a little slower than that of ordinary zombies, which also made Roger, who was watching the battle, cry secretly. If there were dozens of archers under him, he would not be so passive at this moment.

However, although Roger had enough soul power to build a primary shooting range, he couldn't build it because he couldn't get enough common materials.So now we can only rely on the spear militia to carry it hard, hoping to withstand the attack of the plague zombies.

Although the plague zombie was relatively slow, it finally came to the spear militia.The undead creatures completely looked at the spears standing in front of them, and stretched out their hands straight to rush towards the spear militiamen.

Fortunately, the spear militiamen did not have any negative emotions such as fear, sadness, or disappointment, so there was no confusion in their queue, and they just waited silently for the battle to begin.When the plague zombies were only a few steps away, the spear militia finally made a move.They stabbed their spears neatly, and accurately stabbed the plague zombies and wiped out a dozen enemies with a single thrust.

However, this loss is nothing to the large number of undead creatures.The plague zombies in the back continued to come up one after another, attacking Roger and others one after another.

Under the command of Roger, the spear militia resisted the attack of undead creatures in a well-founded manner. He paid special attention to not letting the soldiers get too close to the plague zombies.Although the Pike Militia is only a creation of the Castle Hub, Roger is not sure whether they will be infected with the deadly plague, so it is better to be careful.

But there are many things that cannot be avoided no matter what, and the situation that Roger has been guarding against finally happened.
