Chapter 158-8-Lord Earl... so amazing!
"Undead! A lot of undead!"
"My lord, be careful!"
The extraordinary knights exclaimed, and immediately raised their swords and steel shields to protect Charlotte.
"Roar-!"
Hearing the voices of the knights, the undead in the dense forest let out a low growl, rushing towards the crowd like a wave of zombies in a movie.
The battle broke out in an instant.
The extraordinary knights swung their swords and chopped down the rushing corpses to the ground.
However, the next moment, those living corpses that were cut down by the knights stood up unsteadily again, and continued to rush towards the knights.
"Cut off their heads! Extinguish the flames of their souls!"
The experienced knight leading the team said loudly.
The remaining extraordinary knights immediately changed their attack direction and greeted the head of the living corpse.
One after another, the rotten heads were chopped off by them, and foul-smelling black blood spewed out, while the living corpses that lost their heads shook slightly, fell to the ground and turned into ordinary corpses again.
The strength of these living corpses is not strong.
Although the strength is much higher than that of ordinary people, and they don't know pain, there are almost no advanced practitioners.
As long as they are not attacked by surprise, they are not opponents of supernatural beings at all.
However, the number of living corpses is too much.
Dense fires of dead souls lit up in the dense forest, and more and more living corpses rushed out, and the extraordinary knights couldn't kill them at all.
Almost instantly, Charlotte and the others were surrounded.
"Protect the Earl! Break out!"
The extraordinary knight leading the team chopped down a living corpse to the ground again, and ordered loudly.
As the only Starry Knight who came out to investigate with the Earl, he rushed to the forefront and had already opened a faint way back to the camp.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind came from his side, and a living corpse that was much faster than other undead rushed towards him.
This advanced zombie is obviously more intelligent than other zombies.
Holding the rusty steel sword high, it jumped up, and unexpectedly displayed its sword skills directly, slashing towards the head of the knight captain.
"It's a beginner! Captain be careful!"
The extraordinary knights said in amazement.
The captain of the Cavaliers was shocked, and quickly turned back to defend.
However, he had just let go of his strength just now, and he didn't have enough time to regroup his defenses, let alone face the surprise attack of a living corpse that had already advanced.
Barely making a defensive posture, the attack of the living corpse has already fallen.
The knight captain only felt a huge force coming from the tiger's mouth, making his hands go numb, and the long sword in his hand was hit directly to the ground by a living corpse.
But the attack of the living corpses did not end.
It twisted its body back at a strange angle that a normal person would never be able to do, raised the rusted sword again, and slashed at the captain of the knight.
"team leader!"
The extraordinary knights exclaimed.
Looking at the rusty sword slashing towards him, the knight captain turned slightly pale.
He knew that he couldn't stop this blow!
However, just when he thought he was about to die, a piercing sound came from behind.
A crossbow arrow directly penetrated the head of the advanced living corpse, took the rotten head flying out, and nailed it to a tree trunk not far away.
The living corpse that lost its head shook a few times, and slowly fell limp.
The anxious extraordinary knights were slightly taken aback, and the cavalry captain was also slightly taken aback.
He turned around subconsciously, and saw his beautiful and lovely Earl standing not far away, unhurriedly put away the hand crossbow he took out from nowhere, and skillfully reloaded a crossbow bolt.
It is different from the elegant, generous and pitiful ones at the banquet, and also different from the innocent, cute and innocent ones on weekdays...
At this moment, Charlotte's expression was calm, and she didn't see the slightest fear of the horrible living corpses. She didn't look like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl at all.
I saw her carrying a hand crossbow, crossing over the corpse on the ground, and came to the side of the knight captain. She pulled out the rusty sword used by the living corpse who had just entered the rank, and weighed it in her hand.
However, after pulling out the rusty sword, the girl frowned slightly as if she had discovered something, raised the sword and sniffed it.
Then, she raised her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Earl... Your Excellency?"
Noticing the girl's thoughtful gaze, the knight captain couldn't help calling out.
Hearing the knight's voice, Charlotte regained consciousness.
She swung the rusty sword, looked at the tide of living corpses not far away, took a light breath, and said calmly:
"Follow me to break out."
After finishing speaking, she passed the knight captain and walked towards the camp first.
It seemed that they were attracted by the girl's exuberant breath of life, and the living corpses screamed and rushed towards her.
"Your Earl!"
The knight captain's expression changed slightly.
He quickly picked up the long sword again, ready to step forward to support.
However, before he could rush up, he saw his own earl attacking first.
Under the clear moonlight, the girl's blond hair moved with the wind, shining a little silver.
She swung the rusty sword and slashed at the charging corpse.
The girl's movements don't have too complicated skills, just the simplest and most basic sword skills.
However, the knight captain was shocked to find that his sight could not keep up with his count's movements.
Fast... very fast!
I saw Charlotte dodge, and the silver sword light refracted by the moonlight flickered around her.
The sharp sword light flashed, and she ran a few steps towards the living corpse she was rushing towards, and instantly fell to the ground with her head in a different place.
The living corpse rushing to the front was cut off by the sword light, and even the tattered armor on its body was cut in half.
The girl who made all these attacks was quite relaxed.
She flicked the rusty sword casually, and the black blood left on it was thrown to the ground, and the crimson light flickered faintly in the blue eyes.
For the first time, the extraordinary breath spread from Charlotte's body, with profound magic fluctuations...
That powerful aura made the starry knight captain feel a slight tingling on his skin.
That was an instinct that came from the body of a transcendent when meeting a more powerful transcendent.
Entered!
The Earl turned out to be an advanced person!
The knight captain's eyes widened.
However, at this moment, another swift figure rushed out from the tide of living corpses.
That turned out to be another living corpse that has entered the stage!
Like the first zombie, this zombie is extremely cunning.
The timing and position it chose were so ingenious, it rushed over just as the girl had just finished a round of attack, and launched a sneak attack directly from behind the girl!
The knight captain's expression changed drastically, and he was about to warn, but saw his earl raised his hand crossbow casually as if he had eyes behind him, and shot an arrow behind him with one hand.
The fierce crossbow shot out, as if the angle had been calculated long ago, it was unbiased, and it directly penetrated the jumping corpse's head, flew it out, and nailed it directly to the big tree.
The advanced living corpse twitched twice, and the dark green flames in its eye sockets slowly extinguished.
Quiet.
It was quiet.
Obviously the living corpses were still roaring and roaring, but at this moment the extraordinary knights fell into an eerie silence.
They all looked at the girl walking in front with incredulous eyes, as if they were meeting their newly succeeded countess for the first time.
Regarding Charlotte's strength, the extraordinary knights from Castel Territory are not clear.
They only knew from the quasi-guard knights who were loyal to the girl in Castel Manor that she was also a transcendent.
But those stingy guys didn't reveal the specific power to them.
After the departure, the powerful Castel convoy has not been attacked so far, so no one knows Charlotte's strength.
The knights just relied on their first impressions, thinking that the young Earl should have just awakened the power of blood.
It is difficult for them to connect the beautiful, lovely, innocent, and unbearably protective earl with the powerful superhuman.
However, at this moment, the girl's fighting power exceeded their expectations.
God, Lord Earl is actually an advanced person!
And... still quite a powerful beginner!
Starry? Or Silver Moon?
With such great strength at such a young age, is it possible that there will be another Chi Yang in Castel in the future?
Seemingly sensing the sight of the knights, the girl turned slightly and turned her head.
Looking at the eyes of the crowd focusing on her, she smiled and said:
"What are you doing in a daze? You broke out with me."
As she spoke, she conveniently put away the hand crossbow that had no more bolts left, and at the same time threw the rusty sword behind her, nailing another living corpse that was trying to sneak attack to the tree.
The silver moonlight shone on the girl's body, coating her with a layer of mysterious brilliance.
The girl casually pulled out the rusty sword that nailed the corpse, and shook the dirty blood on it again.
"Oh, right."
As if remembering something, she put the index finger of her left hand on her lips, smiled slightly at the knight behind her, the corner of her mouth curled up in a beautiful arc, and blood flashed faintly in her pupils:
"My strength, keep it a secret."
After finishing speaking, she chuckled, turned around and continued to attack towards the camp.
The extraordinary knights stared blankly at the girl's petite figure, a blush also flashed in their pupils, and they all showed bewilderment and obsession.
It took a while for them to react, and quickly followed behind, also rushing forward.
Looking at the seemingly delicate figure, but walking comfortably among the living corpses like a Valkyrie, the knight captain couldn't help but murmured:
"Master Earl... you are really amazing!"
…
Night is the home of the Blood Race.
Charlotte, who has been training in Boulder for more than half a year, is no longer what it used to be. These besieged undead are no match for her at all.
Compared to cleaning up these living corpses, perhaps it would be more difficult to bring back the extraordinary knights behind them who had not yet advanced to the camp intact.
Of course, the group did not leave the camp too far, and it didn't take long for them to return to the camp under Charlotte's lead.
But the camp is also in chaos.
As soon as Charlotte walked out of the dense forest, she saw a holy radiance shrouded the top of the camp. It was Lottie and the accompanying trainee priests who performed the divine spell of purification and blessing.
Not only that, but a silver light shot up into the sky and turned into a translucent cover, sheltering everyone inside.
Charlotte recognized it, it was Nice's contract magic.
Around the camp, countless living corpses were attacking the fortifications that the accompanying mages had temporarily molded with earth elemental magic.
Charlotte looked towards both ends of the road, and could only see dense green soul flames.
This is no ordinary undead.
This is obviously an undead army controlled by someone behind the scenes!
"Your Earl!"
Seeing Charlotte returning safely surrounded by extraordinary knights, Baron Sharon, who led the team, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly called the knights to open a path for everyone.
Charlotte returned to the camp and dropped the rusty sword that was already stained with blood. The black cat Niss quickly rushed over:
"Meow! Miss Charlotte, you are back! If you don't come back, we are ready to go out to rescue!"
Charlotte picked up its stamina in disgust, stopped its pounce, and then asked:
"How's the camp going?"
Nice Cat's face is serious:
"Not too good! There are too many undead besieged! And many of them are advanced!"
"Although they can't attack the camp now, everyone will always be tired...Unless there is God's blessing, otherwise, the stalemate will only become more and more dangerous."
When it comes to "God", it deliberately emphasizes the tone, which obviously means something.
Charlotte glanced at it with a half-smile, but Nice coughed lightly and said:
"Miss Charlotte, I'm afraid we have encountered an ambush. So many undead are definitely being manipulated by someone, and... if there is no complete preparation, we will definitely not ambush so many undead!"
Charlotte was noncommittal.
She nodded slightly, looked around, and looked for another figure:
"Where's Sebastian?"
"Meow! I don't know! That guy disappeared once the battle started!"
Nice the black cat was outraged.
Charlotte glanced at it lightly again.
Watched by the girl's deep eyes, Niss shrank his tail slightly, and said honestly:
"Meow... probably... probably looking for the necromancer behind it?"
Charlotte just put it down.
She wondered whether she should call Sebas back through a secret connection first, but suddenly her heart moved slightly, and she looked into the air.
The nimble Sebastian leaped lightly, jumped down from the towering trees on both sides of the road, and jumped directly in front of him.
"Back? How's it going?"
Charlotte asked.
Sebas stopped looking at the other knights, and said seriously:
"Owner…"
Noticing his sight, Charlotte moved slightly in her heart, and ordered the other extraordinary knights to continue to assist in the battle, leaving only Sebastian, she and Nice with a cat.
"Tell me, how many undead are there, and what is their strength?"
"Many! Very many! I'm afraid the number is more than five thousand! There may be more! Not only that... there are some Necromancers on the periphery!"
Sebastian said in a deep voice.
Charlotte raised her eyebrows.
Servant of the Necromancer, the strength is Silver Moon Level 2.
However, in such a large-scale wave of undead, there was no Dark Knight of the third rank of Blazing Sun, indicating that the manipulator behind the scenes should be only a Necromancer of Silver Moon level, but there may be more than one person.
"Have you found the location of the mage behind the scenes?"
Charlotte asked.
Sebastian's complexion is a bit ugly:
"No, the other party... seems to be very good at hiding aura."
Charlotte nodded clearly, as if she had expected it:
"It's normal, after all... the night is the blood race's home field."
"Bloodlines?"
Sebas's eyelids twitched, and his expression suddenly became strange.
"Yes, Bloodline."
"From the dirty blood of those living corpses, I smell some homologous aura..."
Charlotte narrowed her eyes and said.
