Chapter 57 Sudden Attack

Joseph solemnly declared to the twenty members of the Holy Knights around him: "For the glory of the Supreme God, we will fight in the darkest place today."

The darkest place is the Demon Valley or the headquarters of the Goddess of Nature?

The team members don’t know, but they can see from the composition of the team members that this task is definitely dangerous and important.

This special team includes the regiment commander Joseph, a total of twenty-one members, including two senior priests of Light who have been transferred twice, six senior wizards of Light at level 12 or above, and thirteen senior warriors at level 13 or above.

In addition to the regiment commander Joseph, there are two squadron leaders in the special team. Such a powerful combination can complete the task of attacking the palace of a certain country.

When Joseph slowly unfolded a magic scroll, the members were even more surprised. It turned out to be a space teleportation scroll made by dragon skin!

Dragon - the most powerful existence in this plane, with terrifying strength. Even a lowest-level young green dragon has combat power comparable to a great swordsman and magical ability that surpasses a high-level magician.

Dragons are mysterious. Some people will never see a dragon in their entire lives, so dragon skins are particularly precious because if you want to get dragon skins, you must first kill the dragon.

Looking at the entire continent of Light, the only church of Light is capable of making magic scrolls with dragon skins.

Even the Church of Light dared not use the dragon skin scroll easily, because the dragon is a vengeful race. Using their skin to make magic scrolls will surely arouse their anger.

Revenge by groups of giant dragons, even a powerful empire has to be carefully considered.

The teleportation reel made of dragon skin is conceivable, so the members immediately realized that they might have to go to a very far place.

"Sir, are we going to Demon Island?" Demon Island is lonely and hangs overseas, and it is said that it is more than 30,000 kilometers. Only when you go to that place can you use the dragon skin scroll to teleport.

"No, it's a abandoned place." Joseph finally stated the destination of the operation: "Your Majesty ordered us to chase a golden skeleton."

The magic scroll was given to Joseph by Pope Paul II, and he repeatedly told Joseph to be careful, select the most powerful warriors to follow, and carry as much auxiliary magic equipment as possible.

In order to allow Joseph to complete this mission smoothly, the Pope even gave him a magical weapon-Sigh of the Soul.

The tasks assigned by His Majesty the Pope himself are naturally the most important task and must be carried out without fail. However, Joseph believed that His Majesty the Pope had made a big fuss this time.

Although the Abandoned Land is mysterious and terrifying, as the leader of the Holy Knights of the Church of Light, Joseph once had the experience of entering the Abandoned Land. During that operation, Joseph easily swept a skeleton tomb with the fighting spirit of light and killed at least 300 skeleton warriors.

Therefore, in Joseph's heart, the abandoned land is not terrible, especially when facing the light fighting spirit and light magic, the undead creatures in the abandoned land have almost no resistance.

More importantly, the target of this hunt is just a golden skeleton, so there is no need to mobilize such a large number of troops.

As we all know, when the Golden Skeleton is in the abandoned land, its combat ability is generally equivalent to that of the twelve-level warriors in the human world. If they leave the abandoned land and arrive at the human world, they will only be equivalent to the level of an eight-level warrior without the assistance of the dark aura.

A golden skeleton with only level 12 needs to send an ordinary holy knight to settle it. However, the Pope asked Joseph to mobilize almost one-fifth of the elite troops of the entire holy knight. It would be fine if the mages and warriors participated, but he had to injure two senior priests.

Could it be that according to His Majesty’s guess, there will be casualties in this operation?

How is this possible? Joseph is a level 15 holy knight, who has already entered the ranks of powerful people in the holy realm with one foot.

"This is a magic scroll created by His Majesty the Pope himself. It has a time effect. The duration of the space channel is two hours and thirty-five minutes. That is to say, we must complete the task within two hours and thirty-five minutes and return to the space channel, otherwise we may be lost in the abandoned land."

Although he thought it was a big deal, Joseph made serious preparations. Each member was not only fully armed, but also made specific divisions of labor. The arms of the six great masters of Light were filled with magic scrolls to deal with the undead creatures.

"Your Majesty has locked the position of the golden skeleton, the exit of the space channel, located about fifty meters in front of the golden skeleton. Once we walk out of the space channel, we will immediately launch an attack and completely eliminate the skeleton."

Joseph pulled out the soul of the Demon-Slaying Sword and sighed, and cut the magic scroll with one sword. Huge magic energy burst out, and the space channel was formed instantly.

Joseph's body was shrouded in the milky white Dou Qi light, and he shouted: "Glory, loyalty, kill!" He jumped into the space passage.

In the abandoned land, the skeleton army had stopped advancing and stood quietly behind a huge sand dune.

This dune is very different from the dunes in the human world, because the sand here is not real sand, but innumerable bone scum.

Lei squatted under the sand dunes and used repair techniques to repair the fire's disabled thighs.

In just over ten seconds, Hoover spun around the fire for more than twenty times, and cut 108 sickles in the same place on the right thigh bone of the fire.

Although Hoover showed mercy and had to sacrifice his strength to increase speed, with the support of the God of Death Scythe, the platinum skeleton thigh bone, which was more than ten centimeters in diameter, had to break the thigh bone of the fire.

Hoover obviously took Ray seriously and did not hold the accident accountable. Instead, he retreated for more than ten meters with another great lord, Tymon.

Lei Zheng was inexplicably unable to explain, and saw that Hoover was not doing anything for himself, so he took the opportunity to repair the bones of the fire.

If Liehuo is an ordinary skeleton with a broken thigh bone, just find a skeleton to remove his thigh bone and install it. However, Liehuo is a giant over four meters tall, and his thigh bone has no substitute.

More than a hundred sickles were cut down, and the bones fell all over the floor, and there was no way to restore them.

Fortunately, Lei's repair technique was already very pure. He used his sword to flatten the broken bones of the fire, and then docked them, and could still be connected together.

But in this way, Liehuo's right thigh bone is a few centimeters shorter, and he will become a cripple giant skeleton in the future.

Soul energy continued to flow out from the hands of thunder, and a faint blue light appeared at the junction of the thigh bones of the fiery fire, gradually merging.

"Master, I...I want..." Although Liehuo broke a leg bone, it was not a big injury to the undead creature, so his soul heart was still very active: "Master...I'm sorry!"

"Don't say it anymore, I know what you think." Lei comforted Liehuo: "I didn't expect it to be like this, the time is not yet ripe."

"Swish swish swish swish..." The sound of the sword being unsheathed continued to sound. Brent led six or seven black warrior generals to suddenly rush to Lei, forming a ring, and surrounding the lightning in the middle.

Lei thought Hoover wanted to attack him, so he hurriedly pulled Liehuo to stand up.

It was not Hoover who wanted to attack, but a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the sky of the abandoned land.

Seventy or eighty meters in front of the thunder, the gray air in the abandoned land suddenly rotated, and the space seemed to have a huge vortex, and a large amount of air flow rushed into the center of the vortex and was annihilated.

Hoover also noticed this situation and immediately brought Taimont and seven or eight skeleton lords to Lei.

Suddenly, a huge black hole appeared above the abandoned land, and twenty-one dressed humans emerged from the black hole one after another.

The leader is a middle-aged warrior wearing a set of hardcover knight armor, holding a sharp sword with a yellowish luster, and a snow-white war horse under his crotch, looking murderous.

The leader of the knight stood firm on the ground, his eyes immediately locked in Lei's position. He pointed the sword in his hand at Lei's head and shouted: "It's him, kill!"

"Glory, light, faith, loyalty!" Under the command of the leader's knight, magic light flashed continuously on the bodies of the eight knights, and they shouted and charged towards Lei.

At the same time, some of the six magicians wearing white robes began to chant magic spells, while others spread out magic scrolls and threw them over.

The two demon archers have also opened their magic bows, and the magical explosion arrows are ready to be fired at any time.

The first attack to arrive were two magic reels. The reels flew in the air as fast as arrows, making a sharp whistling sound, and a dazzling light radiated from the tail.

"Master, retreat quickly, this is the magic scroll of light!" Buma was a master of knowledge and immediately saw the benefits of the magic scroll.

While shouting for Lei to retreat quickly, Buma hurriedly released a earth-type defensive magic - Chaos Earth Wall, and lay behind him first.

In the face of sudden attacks, not everyone is as timid and cautious as Buma, because they do not know the interests of the human light mage.

A black warrior general suddenly jumped up and used his body to block a magic scroll.

At the same time, a skeleton lord rushed over under Hoover's forced force and flew to attack another magic scroll.

"Boom" two loud bangs, white light shone in the sky, and the magic scroll was immediately triggered.

The body of the skeleton lord immediately turned into ashes under the burning of the sacred flames, and the ashes drifted with the wind. Although the black warrior general fell down, only his armor fell down, but his body no longer existed.
