Chapter 13 Decoy
The knight's heavy sword was waving in the crowd at the rhythm of a pendulum, and headless corpses fell one after another to the ground.
"Charlotte--" The paladin fell to his knees weakly. He completely lost his will to resist, and cried like an abandoned woman. He should have prayed to Andal, Leo thought, not like a pool of meat paste.
Wailing and screaming resounded throughout the night sky.
The villagers' attempts to escape were all futile, just like their powerless resistance. They could not escape. But more fears and confusion, the villagers who had thrown stones at them found the neatly lined up outsiders, all of whom rushed towards them, hiding behind them, as if they were an indestructible wall of steel.
All the warriors who dared to stop the resistance fell, and there was only a cruel picture in front of him.
The giant horse tilted its head disdainfully, and a fog of fog sprayed between its mouth and nose. It paved the road with its iron hooves, with evil in its white eyes, carrying its equally malicious master. The knight's eyes burning with gray flames were twisted, and he stared at the creatures in front of him coldly. There was no doubt that the other party's eyes were full of hatred and simple hatred.
In an instant, Li Ou suddenly remembered a conversation he had with his father a long time ago:
"What is the purpose of the killing of the dead?" In the vague memory, he seemed to be flipping through a certain predecessor's work. His heart was full of confusion. "What do they want? Sacrifice? Revenge?"
"The dead hate the living." The father replied, his voice so light that he did not even blow the candlelight in front of him, "because we can still hope, laugh, and bathe in the sun. No other reason is needed."
In the silence and the deadly silence, Li Oujing listened to his heartbeat. From the eyes of the knight and the giant beast under his crotch, he recognized this wisdom assertion. He suddenly understood the other party's intention: he just wanted to turn them into evil spirits like him. His burning eyes like ashes only wanted them to fall into the abyss like him.
Following the knight's cold and cold eyes as cold as the cold winter, Leo saw the focus of his eyes - the paladin. He had a strong sense that that was his ultimate goal. All his purpose was to make the paladin walk with him, choose to fall, throw himself into the arms of the demon, and become an evil spirit hated by the sun from now on.
The alchemist now knows why the knight appears here-
He followed the paladin!
The horse's hooves hit the ground like thunder; the knight once again raised the heavy sword that shone silver light to harvest life. The sticky blood flowed on the sword, and the strange and terrible light jumped under the dark red light of the solar eclipse. The villagers who escaped by chance stuffed their fists into their mouths, but the screams were inevitably heard.
"Li Ou." Lu Yuewu said.
"Save...we." The village chief begged with difficulty on the ground.
But Li Ou was not sure how much he could save, maybe even they could not save himself. Staring at the slowly approaching knight, the huge black shadow pressed towards him like a mountain. He forgot to breathe and didn't know how to resist. What is the long rune sword, alchemy medicine, or magic in his hand? He didn't know.
The knight rode his horse and whipped it, and rushed towards them.
"Do something quickly!" Rosie yelled at him.
He had no time to think. He could almost feel the cold that penetrated his bone marrow. Leave it to fate! He told himself that there were many unarmed people behind him, and he had no choice but to fight hard.
"Go back! Ghost!" The Crow Man's movements were faster than him.
With a war roar, he rolled up a huge whirlwind, and the axe drew a silver light, and fiercely hit the heavy sword that the knight slashed towards him. The muffled sound of metal hitting splashed out with Mars. The crow man could not resist the knight's huge force and horse, and staggered back, but just avoided the iron hooves raised by the giant beast.
"The undead, go back to your hell!" Fei Feiduo yelled.
The warriors of the Crowman tribe rushed up together. The knight showed his skillful sword. He waved his heavy sword to block the attacks of the crows one by one. The giant horse under his crotch made a loud roar, and he moved his steps and kicked his mouth and bit it, which gained a little advantage for a moment.
But no matter how hard the warriors tried, they could not hurt the knight at all. The swords in their hands only left several black holes in the knight and the war horses beneath him, and no blood was flowing out. Instead, they recovered as before in a short moment. He did not know the pain, nor was he tired, and he had no weakness in the darkness of the solar eclipse.
"We have to do something," Evila said uneasy.
But what can he do? His swordsmanship is as exquisite as the knights? Can his magic penetrate the rolling black fog barrier? Or can his alchemy medicine directly damage the soul of the terrifying knight?
etc……
He remembered something.
My father told him that these terrifying knights and the dark lords were all caused by demons. They were deceived by them and were reborn by the evil magic of the abyss hell... Maybe the means of eliminating demons would be effective? Leo cannot be sure, but it is worth a try.
"Feed." He shouted, throwing the medicine over. "Put it on the sword."
There is not much left of expensive and difficult to make potions. It was originally created to deal with succubus, just like a turtle-shaped rune. But the latter has turned into a magic torrent, with only a little left... it will evaporate with the air. Leo cannot determine how effective it is, and whether it can last until...the eclipse is over. Now all their hopes are here.
The knight danced the heavy sword to the fullest. Leo found that it was difficult for him to join the battle group. He could only make trouble, mess up the Crowman's tacit cooperation with the battle line, and it would definitely lead to their failure. He recognized the fact that made him feel embarrassed and helpless, stayed honestly, held a magic seal in his palm, and at the same time he held the long sword tightly, staring at the battlefield.
The effect of the alchemy medicine was almost immediately presented.
Although the ordinary man's sharp blade could not completely kill the Dark Lord, it was enough to hurt his soul. The gray flame in the knight's eyes was shaking. He opened his mouth and let out a silent roar. The surging magic power was layered and continuously attacking them. The huge horse under his crotch's crotch's eyes turned red, full of the purest cruelty**.
The omnipresent and illusory magic power was like a storm that blew everyone around. The alchemist could not stand firmly, so he even staggered away until he leaned against the cold barrier. The invisible cage still imprisoned them on this stage of death. The only thing that was not affected was the paladin kneeling on the ground.
"Charlotte?" the paladin tried to scream.
"He can't hear it." Leo said with difficulty, "He will only kill you."
At this moment, Leo heard the woman's scream. He raised his head and saw a black mist shrouding behind the knight's cloak. Then he saw the knight lifting the hand that always held the reins, making a strange gesture as if he had released a spell, and then swung them heavily. A terrible cold swept over them in an instant, and the uneven pebble road was suddenly covered with white frost. The tumbling mist drilled out from the ground and wrapped around the body that fell under the knight's iron hooves. Without warning, he cut off the head and rose from the ground one by one, forming a terrifying picture.
Under the control of evil spells, the people who had just died still had fear and horror, showed a terrifying smile on their faces. The head without bodies floated in the air, like a swift shell. The hair was shaking in the air. The dead laughed at the living.
The villagers screamed in horror. Even the alchemist could not help but feel palpitations about this scene and felt weak in his legs. These people were victims of the knight, but now they have become his evil slaves.
The heads rushed towards them, revealing their fine teeth.
There is no doubt that all the heads avoided the paladin who knelt on the ground and did not know how to resist.
Although they were particularly terrifying, with their green eyes showing a faint chill, Li Ou resisted the timidity and waved his sword to cut a woman's head in half. The soldiers' achievements were even more outstanding. Although the villagers called their relatives' names, for these soldiers who were calm and composed, endless battles were the magic weapon to survive.
However, there are too many heads. The knight is not a fool.
The flying heads bypassed them and rushed towards the villagers from the air. The villagers screamed, fear prompting them to escape in scattered ways. However, the heads easily caught up with them. One head sneered and bit the arm of a villager, which was visible to the bones. The other heads rushed forward, and the sound of dozens of teeth chewing almost overshadowed his painful wail.
The alchemists were running and the crows were even more breathless. They saved the next person, and another person was chewed. The head wisely avoided them and chose the unarmed villagers. Their teeth were torn and bitten, turning their former relatives into pieces.
Leo was embarrassed to realize that they really couldn't save everyone.
"Come here, don't run around!"
However, the Knights cut off their last glimmer of hope.
After a high horse neighing, the knight turned his head and the huge black horse rushed into the noisy battlefield again and rushed over a few inches in front of the paladin. His sword slaughtered the villagers on both sides of the left and right, but did not touch the weeping paladin at all. The flying slaves followed their demon leaders like crows, floating around the paladin, as if they regarded him as a stone in the river.
The running knight was like a lightning light, cutting off all living people on the road, letting go of the crow man who had stopped him and hurt him, and letting go of the alchemist, letting go of all outsiders... He turned a blind eye to them. Leo finally understood.
He loved slaughter. This village was his prey. They were all bait for traps. The knight wanted everyone to come out and come to the main road during the solar eclipse so that he could start killing. A bloody harvest harvested life to satisfy his **.
...Perhaps, he still maintains a little bit of the so-called knight heart? Follow the rules set before the killing begins.
Li Ou couldn't help laughing. A bitter smile crawled on his face, and he looked at the wounds and was helpless.
The killing seems to be endless.
Finally, in the silence, Li Ou slowed down, raised his eyes, and faced the foggy stone road. This was simply a morgue. The bent mist was thrown everywhere. The beheaded corpses were piled up like mountains. Some villagers' bodies were removed from large pieces, while others were torn into pieces. Each corpse was covered with countless bite marks, and the simple clothes were also fragmented, revealing the flesh and blood that had been gnawed underneath. Li Ou took a breath, and the smell of blood and stinking blood filled his lungs.
The knight stood facing the paladin, his figure looming in the hovering mist.
They didn't move, but Leo was sure that the Knight must have said something, through magic, or other ways. In this tranquility of death, Leo vaguely saw a ray of golden sunlight appearing in front of his eyes, dispelling the stale mist.
The solar eclipse is over.
He heard the neighing of the war horses, as if mocking them who survived, and then took a long walk to take the silent master back to hell and the abyss. The stone road disappeared, and Leo found that they were on the street outside the hotel. The paladin knelt in the mud, covering his face and crying loudly.
"What should we do?" Lu Yuewu said softly, pale and weakly.
"Get out of here." He looked at the sunny sky, "the farther away, the better."
"But..." she said weakly, unable to hide her guilt. "Will he still appear?" She was like Leo, helpless in the massacre.
There is no doubt.
The paladin is still there, and he will come back again.
