Witch Monastery

Celine floated in the air, firing tracer bullets one after another directly at the Death Knight's face. The damage was not high, but it was extremely insulting. Her purpose was not for anything else but to keep his attention on her.

This guy, while harvesting the tentacles summoned by Heidi like mowing grass, was waving his flail, occasionally throwing out a ball of undead energy, which also hit Celine or Heidi, making them suffer excruciating pain!

Yes, this guy has high damage, high defense, is not afraid of control, is fast, can do close combat as well as ranged combat - except for not having the ability to cause mass destruction, this BOSS has almost no shortcomings!

But even though the advantages of the numerical monster are here, its disadvantages are also very obvious: when his numbers are lower than his enemy's, he has no chance of turning the tables!

Hawthorne and the other two approached quickly. Anno, the toughest one, rushed to the front with a shield in hand. Hawthorne and Kassa followed closely behind, charging forward in a "品" formation.

The three of them quickly got close to the Death Knight, but Anno was not in a hurry to launch an attack. Instead, he followed the tactics he had discussed with Hawthorne on the ship and first charged forward with his shield.

However, the Death Knight also reacted quickly, turned around suddenly, and slammed into Anno with his large shield like a door panel.

clang--

There was a sharp metal collision sound, and the Death Knight only took half a step back, while Annuo took three steps back before he could barely stabilize his body. But her goal had been achieved, because Hawthorne and Kasa had surrounded him from the left and right!

"Drink——!"

Kassa swung the greatsword in her hand, causing it to rotate horizontally in front of her, and chopped at the Death Knight's head; Hawthorne was in no hurry to attack, and waited until Kassa's sword forced the Death Knight to turn around and defend, then he suddenly stepped forward and aimed his magic energy directly at the guy's body -

He was about to succeed, but at this moment, the Death Knight suddenly turned around and raised the shield high in his hand!

boom--!

His sword had to hit his shield head-on, and a tremendous amount of magic power bombarded him, but this guy only took half a step back, with no sign of being knocked down!

And then, Kassadin's magical blade chopped off the back of his head, causing his head to tilt and his body to sway!

However, despite this, this guy still faced Hawthorne head-on, holding up his shield to defend himself, as if his combat experience from his previous life was still effective. He could tell that Hawthorne was the biggest threat among this group of people, so he was unwilling to place his hatred on the other two!

Damn, this is so troublesome!

Hawthorne cursed inwardly, but he was not panicked. He immediately adjusted his strategy: "Celine, Anno, Kasa, don't worry about me, just go all out!"

"Heidi, find a chance, as soon as his shield is no longer facing me, immediately wrap it around his arm!"

He had already told the girls about various emergencies before, so now they all knew what was going to happen. So they adjusted their positions immediately. Anno rushed behind the Death Knight and stood side by side with Kassadin. The red flames on the blade in his hand suddenly turned golden, and he chopped at his back with all his might!

"Roar--!"

The dazzling golden light made her sword look like a red-hot steel knife, and the Death Knight's plate armor, which should have been indestructible, was now as fragile as cheese. The golden blade easily cut through his defenses, burning and emitting wisps of green smoke. The intense pain caused the Death Knight to scream, "Ugh!"

The Holy Slash is the most powerful slashing ability in the material world. Moreover, as an undead creature, it is completely restrained by this kind of attack!

He turned his head and threw the flail backwards, but the shield was still pointed at Hawthorne and could not be moved away. Being attacked from both sides, he could not possibly deal with the attack of his nemesis!

His chainmail was easily blocked by Anno's shield, and then she added a sword. Kaisa also maintained her own rhythm, slashing him with the giant sword in her hand.

At this moment, although the damage of each of her swords is not as great as that of Anno, who uses every sword to slash with the Holy Sword, but relying on the advantage of her weapon and the blessing of the "Crusader's Cloak", her accumulated damage is something that the Death Knight cannot ignore!

Serious injuries accumulated behind him, and the Death Knight, who was attacked from both sides, was visibly at a disadvantage. However, Hawthorne had not yet launched an attack, but just kept taking small steps to confront him.

Finally, when the damage accumulated to a certain extent, he could no longer bear it. He roared, turned around, and swung his shield horizontally -

clang--

A crisp sound was heard, and the swords of Anno and Kassa were blocked. The reaction force even made their bodies step back half a step, almost losing their balance.

But seeing this situation, Hawthorne's eyes suddenly lit up: "Heidi!"

call--

Without his warning, four thick tentacles emerged from the ground and tied up his arms!

"This can't defeat me!"

The Death Knight roared and tore the tentacles wrapped around his body in half with his strong arms. He then turned around and tried to block Hawthorne's attack again.

However, it was too late. Hawthorne strode forward, released two points of mana, and slashed his armor with his sword over his shield.

Magic energy slash!

boom--!

The terrifying magical energy exploded. Even though the Death Knight was two meters tall, he could not block Hawthorne's slash. His body suddenly lost balance and he fell to the side!

"I can still fight!"

The Death Knight roared and tried to get up from the ground. His heavy armor collided with each other, making a dull sound.

However, after finally knocking him down, how could Hawthorne give him another chance? He spun the double-headed sword in his hand, and the blade on the other end chopped him down, and then the majestic magic power exploded again!

At this moment, he no longer cared about saving energy. Every sword strike was filled with the power of magic, just to make him unable to stand up forever!

boom--!

Another sword of magic energy fell, and the Death Knight, who had been unable to resist the sword just now, was naturally unable to block it now. His body fell down again, rolling on the ground with his heavy armor, and for a while he couldn't even launch a decent counterattack!

Even though this guy's flail was deadly heavy and his speed was ridiculously fast, he could only repeat the process of being knocked down - trying to stand up again - and being knocked down again.

He yelled and screamed helplessly, but he couldn't change the situation at all. Anno's Holy Slash and Kaisa's giant sword slashed at him one after another, leaving him with wounds deep enough to see the bone!

At this point, the battle has actually come to an end.

"Purify!"

Finally, Hawthorne struck him on the shoulder with his sword again, and silently chanted. A milky white purifying light lit up, instantly sweeping over the death knight's body. Amid his unwilling roar, his body turned to ashes, leaving only his armor, huge shield and flail, lying quietly on the ground.

At this point, the battle is over.

"call……"

An Nuo heaved a long sigh of relief, took off his helmet, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and seemed to be still a little frightened: "This guy is so fierce, his flail hit my arm just now, I felt my whole arm was numb, I couldn't block it at all..."

Hawthorne glanced at the ashes on the ground with some lingering fear. This guy's rapid movement speed and fighting attitude that regarded him as the biggest threat made him doubt at first whether his plan would be aborted.

Fortunately, although this guy was fast, he didn't really crush them, and the damage of Anno and Kaisa was also considerable enough to turn the hatred

Pull it back again.

When Huo Sang seized the opportunity, he knocked him to the ground with a sword and he never got up again.

This is his tactic, and it is also a tactic commonly used by warlocks - but under normal circumstances, a level 13 warlock only has 21 mana points. Unless he gives up buffs such as the five-ring elemental weapon and the five-ring false life, there will not be enough mana bars to keep the BOSS rolling on the ground.

Only a freak sorcerer like Hawthorne, with an absurdly long blue bar, can make the BOSS roll non-stop on the ground from beginning to end without ever getting up.

But even so, he emptied his own blue bar to achieve such an excellent result.

Chapter 628 The Missing Vampire

Hawthorne turned his head and looked behind him. The battle sisters had basically cleaned up the battlefield. In fact, there was not much to clean up. Those rusty weapons, armors and shields were no longer usable. The most they could do was to collect the bones to show their final respect for the dead.

Hawthorne walked to the Ashes of the Death Knight, picked up his heavy black armor, turned his head to look at Anno and Kasa, and said with a smile: "This plate armor is a good thing with magic. It has not been damaged for hundreds or thousands of years. Who of you wants it?"

An Nuo went over, took a look, and frowned slightly: "It doesn't fit well... Do you know a blacksmith who can modify the magic plate armor?"

Kasa shook her head repeatedly: "No, I don't wear heavy armor, it's too heavy and not agile."

As she spoke, she yawned, and seemed to have no interest in the process of dividing the spoils. She turned around and went to rest nearby.

Hawthorne ignored her. After hearing Anno's request, he immediately thought of the mountain dwarves: "I'll contact them. I know several master dwarf blacksmiths who can make storm hammers. I wonder if they can modify this thing."

As he spoke, he put away the plate armor first, then picked up the flail and shield respectively, and said, "Do you want these two? They both seem to suit you well."

Now that he has the artifact double-headed sword, he rarely uses a shield anymore. Even though this is a rare and good equipment, he doesn't need it anymore.

In response, An Nuo took the shield and said, "Let me try it. If this shield works better than what I have now, I'll use this one. You take the flail. I'm quite good at using the Flame Tongue."

After a pause, she continued, "This kind of historical magic weapon is very popular in the market. If you are lucky, you should be able to sell it for a high price."

Hawthorne nodded, then turned his head to look at Kasa in the distance and said loudly: "Kasa, do you want this flail? It's quite effective!"

Kasa shook her head and responded loudly: "No! My weapon is much better than that!"

Hawthorne uttered a soft sound.

Well, I remember that this flail was quite powerful, with a high level of dark damage, but now it's like a piece of junk and no one wants it!

That's right, I haven't recruited a single heroic adventurer from the tavern yet...

But it's not a big problem, just give it to a battle nun. In the game, they are all soldiers measured in squares and cannot be equipped with these magic weapons, but in the real world, they are all living people.

These obsolete weapons, equipment, etc. can be handed over to them to continue to improve their self-protection and combat capabilities.

Anyway, after cleaning up the battlefield, the group didn't delay any longer and quickly returned to the boat to bandage their wounds, rest, and recover.

However, while the battle sisters could rest, Anno, Kasha and the others could not. They needed to guide the battle sisters on the problems they had exposed in the battle, telling them what they had done wrong and what the correct approach should be.

Under their correction, the girls were making rapid progress. The situation seemed to be very good, but looking at all this, Hawthorne couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Now, she only has a hundred combat nuns under her command, and she can provide one-on-one targeted guidance and adjustments.

However, in the future, when his troops enter a period of rapid expansion, it will be impossible for Annuo to provide one-on-one guidance. By then, the individual combat effectiveness of the soldiers will inevitably decline. Compared with the current one hundred combat nuns, they may not be at the same level at all...

Thinking of that future, he couldn't help but feel a headache.

Alas, after all, reality is not a game. It is impossible to just click the mouse and have troops with standard combat effectiveness emerge from the barracks one after another!

Anyway, at night, after the one-on-one instruction, everyone used the water-making technique to create warm fresh water, took a simple bath, and then returned to their rooms and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Hawthorne was not in a hurry to kill the vampire. Instead, he let the battle sisters continue to rest and recuperate on the ship, while also digesting the experience of the battle last night. Then he waited until night before landing on the island again to prepare for the battle against the vampire.

As for the reason why he did this, it was actually very simple: vampires are afraid of sunlight, so if he went there during the day and woke him up, this guy would definitely not dare to come out of the cave because he was afraid of the sunlight. If Hawthorne wanted to destroy him, he would have to go into the cave and fight him in the narrow terrain, which was very inconvenient.

Therefore, he chose the time for the battle at night.

Let the battle sisters line up on the coast and prepare for the battle tonight. Hawthorne still went forward alone and walked to

On the hill over there, above the cave where the vampire was sleeping, find the key sealed tree, and then cut it off with one sword.

Then, he prepared to run back to the battle sisters' line and wait for the undead to wake up. However, unlike the immediate roar yesterday afternoon, when he cut down the small tree, the whole land was almost motionless.

Seeing this, Hawthorne frowned immediately, stopped, and counted again on the hillside according to the strategy he remembered.

However, he was very sure that he did not chop down the wrong tree. However, the real world was not like the game, where prepared events would just stay there and would never be triggered unless the player went over.

Someone triggered this seal prematurely?

Let the vampire go?

Or was there some other unexpected event?

Wait, if something unexpected happened to the vampire, what about the remaining three? !

Realizing that his plan to gain experience might be on the verge of failure, his heart began to beat wildly.

No, we have to go to the vampire's tomb and confirm what is going on.

Thinking of this, he went down and called Heidi, Celine, Kasa and Anno, and climbed up the hillside again together, went into the cave where the vampire was sealed, turned on the light, and went deeper.

But everything that happened afterwards was no different from what he remembered: whether it was falling rocks, thorns, poisonous insects or any other traps, the way they were triggered and how they were released were all exactly the same as he remembered.

Based on this, he carefully led the girls deeper into the cave, ensuring that they would not trigger the other two small bosses while entering.

Finally, half an hour later, they arrived safely at the deepest part of the cave, the sealed tomb of the vampire.

This was a small square room, without a single ray of light, and terrifyingly quiet. Shilin shone a strong light into the room, and saw a huge bronze coffin lying in the middle of the room, with a mysterious magic circle with an octagonal star at the center drawn in mithril.

The floor of the tomb was covered with a thick layer of dust, but there were no footprints, as if no one had ever been there. But when Hawthorne looked up at the top of the coffin lid and saw the clean surface, his expression suddenly became a little ugly.

Logically, there should be some dust on it, but there isn't, which means it must have been touched recently.

But this person is most likely not an outsider. After all, none of the traps were triggered along the way, and there were no footprints here.

So, after excluding all impossible options, the final result is obvious: the vampire has awakened, and he has escaped from his tomb!

So, the coffin should be empty now, and the burial objects inside have probably been taken away.

Thinking of this, he called Heidi and Celine to open the coffin lid together, and found that the sealing magic on it had indeed failed, and after opening it, it was empty.

On the side, An Nuo's expression was also very ugly for a moment: "The vampire ran away?"

Huo Sang held his forehead with his hand: "Yes, he has already run away... and judging from the signs, he should have been running away for some time."

An Nuo opened his mouth, and his face was immediately filled with worry: "Such an ancient vampire, if he runs away, where can he run to? The nearest metropolis to here is Liber Port, maybe..."

Thinking of that possibility, she suddenly felt her heart aching.

Hawthorne's face was solemn, and his heart was pounding. Not only did he fail to defeat the boss he was supposed to fight, but now he found that he had escaped. Suddenly, there was a lot of uncertainty in the matter: if a sinister, cunning, and shrewd ancient vampire still had reason and knew how to escape, and if he really escaped to Libel Port, how much trouble would he cause in secret?

He didn't know, but he felt uncomfortable when he thought about it. Although Huo Sang was not unable to defeat this guy with his strength, and even An Nuo with full mana could probably kill him alone, the most troublesome thing about this guy was his brain after all...

Chapter 629 Mummy Princess

"Forget it." Finally, Hawthorne sighed and temporarily suppressed his worries. "After returning, notify the Black Rod Tower. Let's increase our attention throughout the city and don't let these evil creatures take advantage of us."

Putting this matter aside for the time being, he then looked up and said, "Since we can't beat the vampire tonight, let's just go to the next one and beat the mummy!"
