Chapter 322, Twilight Forest, Skeleton Castle
Deep in the twilight forest.
Inside the dark castle.
An owl beast cried twice.
Then there is a coffin under the castle.
A pale hand held open the lid.
Slowly climbed out of it.
"My dear Queen, it's time for you to wake up."
A gloomy voice came from the darkness.
Along with the sound.
Soon, a woman wearing a black robe crawled out of the coffin.
There was a "click" sound.
The oil lamp in the secret room of the castle was lit.
"Mira!"
"Now is not the time to eat."
"Why wake me up!"
The queen who crawled out said in a dissatisfied tone towards the darkness.
And a figure slowly appeared over there.
A vampire with long fangs.
"Queen, it was not me who woke you up."
"But there are enemies invading the Dusk Forest!"
"Information from the royal capital."
"King Blue Wind assembled an army of ten thousand extraordinary nobles and marched towards the Twilight Forest."
"They want your harp, Queen!"
Not all the words have been said yet.
The queen's figure suddenly turned around.
"Harp!"
"Where did they know about the harp!"
The vampire named Mira shook her head.
"That's unknown."
"But what is certain is that at the marching speed of the extraordinary army."
"We will reach Dusk Forest soon."
"I have awakened all the Shadow Legions."
"But this time we are facing an army of ten thousand extraordinary nobles."
"We need your support."
The queen nodded slightly.
At the same time, he subconsciously touched his right hand.
"They have nothing to fear if they enter the Dusk Forest."
"The Shadow Legion can be resurrected infinitely in the Twilight Forest. They cannot kill any soldier of the Shadow Legion."
"Enter the Dusk Forest."
"These extraordinary nobles can provide some supplementary blood food."
"I have been sleeping for too long and lack the supplement of extraordinary blood."
"The power of those seals began to drain my power again."
"I need more divine blood to resist the power of the seal."
"Mira, how many extraordinary people are there in prison?"
Vampire Mira replied without thinking.
"Less than three hundred."
"The creatures with divine bloodline in the Dusk Forest have become extinct."
"These three hundred are the last point."
The queen opened her mouth, revealing sharp teeth.
"Then eat them all."
"The cell just happens to be vacant, and I will imprison them after capturing these 10,000 extraordinary legions."
"This way, I can resist the power of the harp."
"It's time to hold on until all the bodies are released."
"Take me to where I am being held."
Mira bowed slightly.
"Yes!"
at the same time.
Outside the Twilight Forest.
An army of extraordinary beings from the Blue Wind Empire has appeared.
This time the commander-in-chief is the Duke of the Blue Wind Empire.
It's just that he is the nominal commander.
The Duke has already been controlled by Blood Crow.
When he came this time, Blood Crow even possessed his clone in the Duke.
And another deputy commander.
It was an undead clone covered in black robes.
When the army appeared in the Twilight Forest.
Blood Crow narrowed his eyes slightly.
In the sky, countless blood crows were flying.
Skim the area.
he said after a moment.
"It is certain that Fang Yuan's legion has not arrived yet."
"Our speed is still acceptable."
The undead on the side did not answer.
Instead, he looked at the twilight forest in trance.
He said suddenly after a long time.
"I can sense that there is a force even more evil than the undead inside."
"We have to enter the Twilight Forest, but I'm afraid it won't be that easy!"
Blood Crow didn't take it seriously.
"Ten thousand extraordinary legions, all well-trained."
"After death, the bones are transformed into undead, and the soul is eaten by the blood crow, giving birth to a new blood crow."
"We can make twice as many legions to go into battle."
"What's so scary about this!"
He said that he did not care about the opinions of the Undead Archmage.
Give orders directly.
"Send three hundred forwards to explore the road."
Soon, three hundred extraordinary beings stepped into the Twilight Forest.
The moment they walked in.
In the forest, countless black mist rose.
The trace was immediately lost.
And a moment later.
A howl came from the twilight forest.
Then a war horse escaped from the forest.
On top of it was a cavalryman with only half his body left.
This scene immediately caused panic among the extraordinary army.
Then a voice came from the twilight forest.
"You are not welcome here."
"Get out of here!"
After Blood Crow heard this.
There was anger on his face.
"Seeking death!"
As soon as he had an idea, he took out a bloody scroll prop.
"Isn't it just a barrier?"
"What's so great."
"Broken!"
Throw the scroll out.
A bloody light shot out.
The thick black fog in the twilight forest directly opened a path.
At the end of the road, you can see an old castle.
Blood Crow saw this.
"Send the order."
"All legions, enter the forest immediately."
Suddenly, the morale of the Extraordinary Army surged and they began to march towards the Twilight Forest.
But when all the legions entered.
Undead and Blood Crow soon discovered.
The opened road was soon shrouded in black mist.
at the same time.
A series of shrill screams sounded one after another.
The black mist condensed into a black shadow and attacked them.
The black shadow can take away an extraordinary person every time.
But their attacks could only scatter the black shadows. Soon, these black shadows regrouped and continued to attack them.
Faced with this strange scene.
It was the undead and the Blood Crows who found themselves in trouble.
And at the same time they were wrapped in black shadow.
at this time.
Outside the Twilight Forest.
Christian appeared at the entrance with the Legion.
"Judging by the footprints."
"At least tens of thousands of people have been stationed here."
As soon as he arrived, Cardoso, who was accompanying him, saw traces of the previous supernatural beings stationed there.
Christian nodded.
"When I came here, I heard that the royal capital sent tens of thousands of people to the forest."
"It should be them."
"I don't know what their purpose is."
"We all need to step up and get into it."
"Send the order, the Plantagenet Knight is in the vanguard, the Demon-Breaking Fighter is in the center, and the Sword Griffon is in the rear."
"Follow me into the Dusk Forest!"
After the legion led by Christian entered the Twilight Forest.
Soon I also encountered the strange black shadow army.
It's just that they still have Bol and Cardoso in their team.
They can see through illusions.
shouted directly.
"Circular formation."
"Some of these shadows are fake."
"Listen to me, we can see through it."
But Christian soon found out.
Following them is not very efficient.
On the contrary, the Demon Breaking Fighter's counterattack is very efficient.
Easily kills Sombra every time.
Moreover, the shadows killed by the Demon Breaker Warriors will not be resurrected.
This immediately made Christian find a way to crack it.
"The Demon Breaker is the vanguard, and all the other legions follow closely behind."
With the transformation completed.
Open the way with the power of a demon-slayer warrior.
These resurrected black shadows were quickly defeated.
Resurrections are becoming less and less frequent.
at the same time!
Harold, who was accompanying him, used the Holy Light spell to dispel the black mist.
The group of people quickly found the right path in the Dusk Forest.
An old castle surrounded by black air was discovered.
The structure inside the castle is relatively simple.
Above are cells used to imprison various extraordinary creatures.
There is a secret room below.
now.
The above-ground cells of the castle.
Most of the neatly arranged stone rooms are empty.
Only a small number of them had dejected detainees.
Among them are giants, ogres, murlocs, elves, orcs, and humans.
There are even a few harpies.
The moment they saw the queen appear.
There was a look of extreme horror in his eyes.
"Queen, you must hurry up."
"Information has just come in that the scouts of the Extraordinary Legion have appeared outside the Twilight Forest."
To your subordinates.
The queen waved her hand.
"Got it."
Then he walked to the cell.
Stretched out his right hand.
Suddenly, countless flesh sprouts grew wildly, wrapping up a weak giant.
In a moment.
The queen's originally pale face actually had a trace of blood.
"I have been sleeping for too long, and feeling full after eating is so comfortable."
"This giant actually has the blood of the ancient flame titan. He is a dependent of the upper god."
"The taste is much better than the blood of those lower gods."
As he spoke, the spreading flesh sprouts retracted.
The queen gracefully waved her jade-like fingers.
Went to the next cell.
In the cell where the giant was originally held.
At this time, only a pile of black ash was left.
In this era, blood to the extraordinary is like the basic cells that make up the human body.
The body's cellular structures are engulfed.
But it will become a puddle of inexplicable meat, not even a piece of meat.
Similarly, the fate of a giant losing its bloodline is the same.
Follow the queen through the cells.
Originally dry skin, fragile bones.
They were all filled with energy in an instant.
From now on, she looks like a stunningly beautiful young woman.
Just before she reached the last prison.
When preparing to be swallowed by the barbarians imprisoned inside.
Sudden.
Mira, the vampire attendant, came over.
She looked hasty.
"Queen!"
"I think we're in big trouble."
"In addition to the extraordinary nobles, we are also attacked by an extremely powerful legion."
"The Shadow Army is no match."
"Them!"
"We are approaching the castle."
When the queen heard the news, she immediately retracted the protruding flesh bud.
He turned around and asked.
"A powerful legion?"
"Siege the castle."
"Impossible, the entire Dusk Forest is shrouded in illusion."
"Except for the army of shadows that I created with my own hands."
"It is impossible for any living thing to enter the forest!"
"Even if they come in, they are definitely no match for the Black Shadow Army."
"They can rely on the power of illusion to quickly resurrect in the forest."
"Absolutely impossible to kill."
"Unless~"
"Unless the hunters from the Ancient God Hunting Association show up."
That's when.
There was a tremor in the castle.
Then a loud "rumbling" sound came.
"This~"
Mira's face looked horrified, as if she had thought of something.
she said quickly.
"It's the wall of the castle."
"They must be attacking the city wall."
"Queen, we must leave as soon as possible!"
"Twilight Forest cannot stop their attack!"
After hearing this, the queen's face, which was originally rosy, suddenly became distorted.
"It's them."
"I can already smell the hunters of the Ancient Gods Association."
"Let's go."
"These hunters who have not appeared for hundreds of years must try their best to appear this time."
I don't care about anything else.
The right hand draws an aperture.
Take Mira and teleport away.
at the same time.
The outside of the castle.
"Your Excellency, we just attacked the castle."
"There is a strong shield here."
"It seems to have nothing to do with the power of the spell."
"We can't break it."
The team leader of the Demon-Breaking Fighters said to Christian slightly apologetically.
"You have proven your strength."
"I didn't expect that the power of the Demon Breaker Warrior would be so powerful."
"Those shadow legions that can be resurrected indefinitely in the twilight forest."
"I was actually suppressed to death by you."
"Without you, we wouldn't have been able to find the castle so quickly."
"Leave it to me next."
Christian said, glancing at Harold behind him.
The other party understands.
It immediately turned into an angel armor.
Putting on the battle armor, Christian summoned the light elf and turned it into a long bow.
Bow and arrow.
Christian gathers strength.
An arrow of light as thick as an arm formed.
She calculated it secretly.
"It's almost the same. If it gets bigger, it will probably destroy the castle."
Then let go.
The light arrows shot towards the castle at extremely high speed.
The shield originally shrouded in darkness was burst like a bubble.
Even more surprising.
With the castle's shields broken.
In the twilight forest shrouded in darkness, the thick black tide faded.
"This situation!"
Christian thought of a possibility.
This castle is the source of all power in the Dusk Forest.
As the source of power is broken.
The darkness shrouding the Dusk Forest also began to dissipate.
And as the darkness dissipates.
The ancient castle that everyone saw before their eyes suddenly turned into a fortress made of countless bones.
"This~"
Everyone who saw this scene took a breath.
"No wonder there is such a strong dark power."
"It turns out that the core area is actually a skeleton fortress."
"So many skeletons, how many people were killed to pile them up."
Shocked.
Bol, who followed, rushed into the castle first.
A knight who observes the seven virtues is the enemy of all dark forces.
It's a pity that Boll, who rushed in, found nothing.
No enemy was found in the castle.
But at this time, the Demon-Breaking Fighter who entered behind him made a discovery.
They carried out a harp and a barbarian who looked a little stupid from the castle.
"Your Excellency."
"The people in the castle must have escaped."
"We found this savage in his cell."
"The harp was found in the underground chamber."
"Perhaps this is what the Lord needs."
Christian nodded.
"The task now is to find the harp. What to do next? We still have to wait for the Lord's order."
"As for the barbarians!"
"Take them back together too."
"As commanded."
On leaving.
Christian looked at the mountain of bones.
She gave a low drink.
"Holy prayer, purifying holy fire!"
Suddenly, a flame composed of holy light ignited from the ground.
This skeletal castle was directly burned to ashes.
"Let's go."
Then he led the people towards the outside of the Twilight Forest.
And just when they walked out of the forest.
Sudden.
The captain of the Griffin Knight team who was scouting the way in front stopped.
Then he turned to Christian.
"Your Excellency."
"We are surrounded!" (End of Chapter)
