Heart of the Castle

Chapter 281 Fighting Death Knights, Cursing the Demon Sword
On the other side of the hill, a battle with fewer people but far more intense battles is in full swing.Lord Cedric turned his long-handled battle ax on his head like a windmill. The heavy ax blade was like the most common blizzard in the northern winter night, and he slashed at Brother Ace Pross with a cold and chilling aura.While parrying and dodging, the latter let out a deep and maniacal laugh. His body trembled repeatedly under the onslaught of the Northern Commander, and the pieces of the gray-black armor shattered like shattered ice.

Li Wei's opponent is still Sir Lidwan, the lord of the Greencastle has completely lost his human image after being re-controlled by the evil curse, his skin is cracked, his muscles are withered, his eyes are burning with dark green flames, and his black fighting spirit Covering the whole body, it looks like an evil ghost that just crawled out of hell.But his movements were astonishingly fast, and his strength was terrifying. He took over the attacks of the three knights, Li Wei, Donner, and Dragunson, all by himself.

The clang of metal is intertwined like a song.

Donner swung the bear-headed battle axe, and with a thunderous momentum, he slashed at Sir Lydwan head-on.Dragonson was close at his side, and the two-handed giant sword carefully crafted by the dwarf blacksmith made a shrill sound of breaking wind, and swept horizontally towards the joint of Sir Ridwan's chest and abdomen.Facing the onslaught of the two knights, the monster wearing Sir Ridwan's body roared furiously. He raised his long sword without fear, and abruptly blocked the oncoming battle axe. The possible angle was twisted downwards, and a piercing tremor sounded, and the burly Dragunson with his two-handed sword was swept away like a straw.

Li Wei jumped out from behind Dragonson, moving nimbly like a big bobcat.Sir Lydwan turned around with a roar, his knees creaked, but Donner's tomahawk slashed towards his head again, forcing him to raise his sword to meet him.

Li Wei took the opportunity to stab out with both swords in his hands, and the knight's sword burning with silver-white flames was raised from below, and the silver-white and black fighting spirit exploded violently, although Li Wei's fighting spirit was a bit weaker than Sir Lydwan's , but sacrificing grudges to restrain all undead breaths makes this gap almost non-existent.

The sword edge pierced Sir Ridvan's lungs obliquely upwards from the ribs. For humans, this is a very serious wound. Even if it does not kill him immediately, it is impossible to have the strength to fight again.

However, Sir Lidwan was not affected at all, he didn't even have time to catch his breath, the long sword was withdrawn from his head, and then he launched a fierce counterattack.The night-dark sword light enveloped Li Wei's body, trying to twist him into pieces. A series of swift and stormy sword blades resounded, and the young knight blocked from left to right, struggling to parry all the attacks.

Sir Lidwan suddenly switched the long sword to his left hand with lightning speed, and then pierced through the dead corner of Li Wei's line of sight.Li Wei barely blocked the sword by relying on intuition rather than vision, but he was still cut across his ribs by the black grudge, the thick coat was cut like a cardboard, and blood splashed with the sword.

Li Wei staggered back, Sir Ridwan roared and rushed towards him, ready to defeat the young knight in one go, but Dragonson and Donner had already recovered, and the two roared at the same time, the bear-headed battle ax and the two-handed giant sword Blocked in front of Sir Lidwan who was rushing towards him frantically.

The long sword swished, setting off a storm of metal, but the tomahawk and the giant sword were impenetrable. Sir Ridwan's offensive was like a raging wave, but in front of the iron wall where the two knights joined forces, they could only slam into it. Helpless clang.

A few extremely shrill roars came from afar. This sound represented the defeat of those black-armored knights. Brother Ace Pross, who was fighting endlessly with Lord Cedric, suddenly changed his face, and his pupilless night eyes flickered. Surprised light.

"The members of the majestic Black Sun Death Knights were actually defeated by some unknown people?"

Septon Ace Pross' whisper sent Lord Cedric into a frenzy of rage, which made his graying hair stand on end.

"Arrogance! Sue the dead, let you taste the power of the unknown!" Accompanied by the roar, there was a heavy slash like lightning flashing with dazzling white light. The blade of the long-handled battle ax was too fast, even It gives people the illusion of tearing apart the void.

The power of this attack is undoubtedly terrifying, but the trajectory of the attack is very single. Even Lord Cedric did not expect to be able to split the accused in half, but was preparing for other follow-up attacks.However, to his surprise, Brother Ace Pross didn't dodge the sharp edge and wait for an opportunity to counterattack as he did with this move just now.

The sword of Brother Ace Pross seems to have been quite old, and the whole body presents a kind of off-white like polluted flesh. Of course, this color is usually used to describe the old sword that has been buried in the ground for many years year skeleton.The blade doesn't look sharp, but has countless tiny serrations, coupled with the delicate and meaningless lines on the sword body, it will make the opponent a little dizzy when swinging it.This sword belongs to the long-hilted epee used on the battlefield, that is, the so-called half-handed sword. The blade is about 20 centimeters longer than the ordinary knight's sword, and it is also slightly thicker, but it is not the same as the long sword used by Lord Cedric. Brother Ace Pross's saber is very fragile compared to such a heavy weapon as a tomahawk.

"Stupid! Do you think your sword can stop it?"

Following Lord Cedric's roar, the long-handled battle ax slammed heavily on the saber that Brother Ace Pross was holding above his head, making a series of harsh metal shattering sounds.A victorious smile appeared on the face of the North Commander, but just as the smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, it was wiped away by a sudden lightness in his hands.

The blade of the long-handled battle ax made of fine steel is still sharp, shining with a threatening cold light, but a tiny crack has separated the blade from the middle, and then the upper half of the blade is under Lord Cedric's unbelievable gaze Slip down and fall into the dust.

"It's impossible. My Bloodrage is made of high-grade fine steel mixed with fine gold. It's the masterpiece of a master dwarf blacksmith!" Lord Cedric still couldn't believe that his beloved weapon was destroyed, and he couldn't tell whether it was anger or panic. roar.

"In front of the cursed magic sword? Tran Yate, your battle ax is nothing." Brother Ace Pross replied panting slightly, his eyes shot a cold light, looking at the bewildered Northern Territory command. "Lord Cedric, I'm not very interested in your head, now, please get out of the way."

These somewhat contemptuous words obviously aroused the tyranny in the chest of the Great Commander of the North. Lord Cedric narrowed his eyes and held the long-handled battle ax horizontally in front of his chest.

"Successor, do you want to help that puppet of yours? Impossible, my weapon may be worse than yours, but it is not difficult to block you for a while. Wait until Levi Ston and the others slow down , it is you who will die!"

"Block me?" Brother Ace Pross suddenly let out a burst of evil laughter, his body swayed back and forth, his short light yellow hair was entwined by waves of off-white breath, it became longer and longer, and the color became more and more It's getting lighter.When he finally stopped laughing wildly and stood up straight again, Lord Cedric's heart beat wildly, and he couldn't help but took half a step back.

The young man who pretended to be a Templar in Rest has changed his appearance again, and this time his image is even more horrifying. There are black rays of light spinning endlessly in his eyes, making people who see it seem to have a kind of The illusion that the soul is being sucked in.The skin has completely lost its color, but has an unnatural paleness, but the lips are as bright red as if rouge has been applied. Two fangs that are obviously longer than the standard stick out from the middle of the lips, shining with a ferocious look. shine.

"Are you a vampire?" Lord Cedric asked warily.

"Don't compare that inferior derivative with the noble like me..." Brother Ace Pross in this form even changed his voice, saying in a tone with a strong aristocratic taste: "I am the black sun Cavaliers staff officer, Viscount Heath Pross."

This name made Lord Cedric thoughtful at first, and then a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

"So it was you! The lone wolf of the dusk!"

"Oh, oh, that outrageous title, I, a nobleman of the night, don't like to hear it." The young man who changed his name to Heath said with a smile, but the smile didn't enter his eyes at all.

"I once committed a heinous crime, and I am still wanted by the Dormition Temple with a huge reward. The lone wolf at dusk, Heath? Pross, you still dare to appear here in a big way, aren't you afraid of attracting the pursuit of the Dormition Templar knights? ?”

"I was able to break through the siege back then, and of course I can do it now." Heath Pross restrained his smile and pointed the cursed sword in his hand at Lord Cedric. "Okay, Your Excellency, now you can tell me, will you let me go?"

"Never!" Lord Cedric replied firmly.

"very good!"

There was an ear-piercing sound of metal shattering. Although the Lord with a Sword, known as the Great Commander of the Northern Territory, barely blocked Heath Pross' fierce attack with a sword, the handle of the fine steel ax in his hand was also cut into two pieces from the middle.Lord Cedric felt his scalp go numb, and he slammed half of the ax handle in his hand at Heath's pale face, and at the same time, he fell to the side and rolled down the hill.

Heath Pross swung the handle of the ax that was thrown towards him to the ground, and followed the traces of Lord Cedric with his cold eyes. However, this experienced opponent has now rolled down the slope and got up. At the same time, he has drawn a long dagger from his waist, ready to deal with the ensuing pursuit at any time.

It was not difficult to hunt down Lord Cedric. The long dagger was not a big threat, and at most it could only buy him a little time for dying.However, Heath Pross was unwilling and unacceptable to take the time. He considered for a few seconds before turning around. At this moment, Sir Ridwan's roar sounded again.

"Guys who deserve to go to the Nine Hells!" Heath Pross swore, and swooped down on the other warband.He had already seen that under the fierce attack of the three of them including Levi, Sir Lidwan was chopped down like an old oak tree, and sawdust flew around, and many wounds had appeared on his body.

These wounds are not fatal to the death knight, but they have also greatly reduced his combat ability when accumulated, especially the sword that Li Wei slashed at the ankle of Sir Ridwan's right leg, completely cutting off the wound. He strained the tendons in his feet, making his every movement seem to be hobbled.

"What is the commander of the northern border, the Lord with the Sword? The reputation is so loud that even a black crow can't stop it?" Seeing Heath Pross pounced over, Dragunson couldn't help complaining in a low voice, Then he waved his two-handed giant sword to meet him, trying to hold him back for a while.

The corners of Li Wei's eyes twitched suddenly, and a sense of crisis that he had never felt before rose in his heart. He immediately attacked twice with two swords in a row, blocking all of Sir Lidwan's offensives.

"Blood of my blood!" Li Wei said to Donna using the special ability of the blood alliance: "Leave this to me, you go and help Dragunson, he is not that person's opponent!"

Donner's movements were not slow, but when he pulled out and jumped out to rescue Dragunson, the high-level knight was already lying on the ground without a sound, and his whole body was like Heath Pross, the pale demon god. While letting out a gloomy laugh, he rushed towards him like an arrow from the string, but the direction was not Donald the Roaring Bear, but Levi Stern, who was fighting Sir Ridwan!

"Sue the dead! Your opponent is me! Leave it to me!"

The bear-headed battle ax swung violently with Tang Na's roar, the air was torn apart, and a thunderous roar was released.The power of this blow was no small matter. Although Heath Pross believed himself to be immortal, if he let this blow hit his body, he might also have an arm or thigh removed.So he had no choice but to scream angrily, and the cloak behind him swiped in the air, and the forward posture of the whole person stopped suddenly.

The cursed magic sword and the bear's head battle ax clashed several times in the air, like a hammer hitting an anvil.Heath Pross' fighting spirit was far superior to that of Sir Ridvan, who did not show the posture of a dead man. Every confrontation made Donner's bones creak, and he retreated involuntarily.Tang Na seemed to be crazy, he didn't care about his body's ability to bear it, and used the same violent ax every time to block Heath Pross abruptly.

However, the difference in strength was huge after all. From the third confrontation between the battle ax and the magic sword, after each heavy blow, a puff of blood sprayed out from the holes in Donner's visor.

The confrontation between the sword and the ax lasted a total of seven times, and in the last confrontation, Tang Na's movements were a little slow, and the cursed sword slashed across his shoulder, and the khaki heavy armor forged by the heart of the castle The defense is amazing, the magic sword can only pierce the shoulder armor shallowly, and it can't cause much damage, but when Heath Pross retracted the long sword, the roaring bear stood straight like a piece of wood fell down.

Now there is nothing that can stop Heath Pross from attacking Levi.

Lord Cedric changed his long sword and was rushing up from under the hill; Knight Hall led dozens of militiamen with flaming spears striding forward in this direction, and a little later came the knights of the Lords United Army , everyone was yelling something; Sir Grace aimed his silver fir longbow at Heath Proulos' back, and the Griffin Lord of the Air was swooping down.

But none of this stopped the dreaded dead man from swinging the cursed sword in his hand.

Li Wei drew back his sword and returned to defense at the last moment. The knight sword made by the great alchemist himself was really extraordinary. When the two swords intersected, sparks shot out, and there was a particularly shrill and ear-piercing scream from the cursed sword!
Tran Yate actually cracked a bit of the blade, although it was so subtle that it was almost hard to see, it also made Heath Pross gasp.

However, a slight advantage in weapons is not enough to smooth out the gap in strength between Li Wei and Heath Pross. The young knight was slashed by this fierce sword, and the whole body fell out, and the silver-white fighting spirit on his body burst into flames. It was so dim that it was almost completely scattered.

Li Wei felt dizzy for a moment. He didn't remember that he had fallen, but the lead gray sky was reflected in front of his eyes, and the touch of solid ground came from behind him.

Heath Pross rushed forward with a grinning grin, pointing his sword at Levi, who had no strength to fight back. The sound of sharp arrows piercing through the air came from behind his head, and Sir Grace had already shot an arrow trying to clear the siege. But Heath Pross just lowered his head slightly and continued to pounce on Levi.

While the sharp arrow pierced the armor behind Heath Prouss, the cursed sword also slashed towards Li Wei's neck. "It's solved!" Heath Pross was shrouded in bloodthirsty excitement all over his body, almost trembling.He looked at Li Wei's face, trying to find the panic, despair and fear that should have appeared from it.That is the best condiment when enjoying killing life.

However, Heath Pross must be disappointed, because he didn't see any panic on Li Wei's face. Until the moment the blade was about to touch his neck, Li Wei's face was still firm and persistent.

"Such a head must be a good souvenir..."

Heath Pross' thoughts stopped here, because in the next moment, his field of vision was filled with two extremely intense red lights.

"It's hot! It hurts!"

Heath Pross couldn't help screaming from the long-lost scorching heat and severe pain.

The deceased staggered back a few steps, a long silver arrow pierced through his body from his back, and the blood-stained arrow protruded from his chest.But this is not the injury that made him scream. The real injury lies at the junction of his chest and abdomen, where there are two cavities that are bigger than fists. You can directly see the scenery behind him. The edges of the cavities are very smooth. Not even a trace of burrs or cracks.

"What kind of power is this?" Heath Pross asked in a hoarse voice, his face becoming very scary.

"That's... Insight, do you believe it?" Li Wei replied with a weird expression.

"Impossible...it hurts...you're lying...ah, no!"

Amidst the screams of panic, the deceased fell down with a bang, and then there was a loud noise from his body. The gray-black armor all over his body exploded, black smoke billowed up, and the heat wave was overwhelming, leaving Li Wei Hastily turned around to avoid, and everyone who had just rushed over also retreated one after another.

When the black smoke dissipated, everyone was surprised to see that the place where Heath Pross fell had turned into a big pit, with gray-black armor fragments everywhere, and the body of the deceased It disappeared, leaving no fragments behind.

　Oh, I finally updated it in time today. By the way, I recommend a book by a friend-"The Gold Eater of the Doomsday". Book lovers with good teeth can chew it.
