Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 111 Public Enemy Ebola
According to the action plan reported to Long Xing Tian Xia, only the four of us decided to go to the Western Continent to destroy the NPC garrison of the Light at the entrance of the "Death Canyon". The Desert Eagle, Light Dance Flying and other directors chose to attack the Cathedral of Light in their respective continents, but the number of targets to be attacked was a little more, adding up to 14 - four in the Eastern Continent, and five in the North and South Continents. As vice-speakers, the Desert Eagle and Light Dance Flying had to destroy a church alone to offset their mistakes. In order to earn more merits and keep the hope of winning the position of speaker, Qiu Shui Chang Tian also boldly chose to challenge a church alone. In addition to the three of them, one director from each of the three factions also chose to attack the church on his own, and they were all the weakest directors in each faction who were in the relegation zone and could be squeezed out at any time. It is estimated that they noticed that the Church of Light had strengthened its vigilance. For the sake of safety, they planned to use them as bait to attract the attention of the Church of Light, sacrificing themselves for the sake of the overall situation and ensuring the success of the other operations.
The directors basically did not cross the line. Although the Autumn and Dragon factions were on the same continent, the Dragon faction only chose to attack one church, so there was no conflict in the targets chosen by each faction. After some discussion, the leaders of the four factions, Long Xing Tian Xia, Da Mo Fei Ying, Qing Wu Fei Yang, and Qiu Shui Chang Tian, decided to take action at the same time on the last day of the "reproach and meritorious service" deadline given by the system. On the one hand, the wars in many places would increase the difficulty of the Church of Light to respond. On the other hand, as long as most actions can be successful, the momentum created by the superposition of effects will be stronger, and perhaps additional merits can be obtained.
There will naturally be no problem with the selection of participants in the action. Being able to strike the Church of Light and avenge the evil "Holy War of Light" that destroyed the family can be said to be a long-awaited opportunity for more than 10,000 members of the Tongxin League. With the full support of Xue Wuxia and other core members, she was the first to sign up. Yun Wuying, Nan Feiyan, Heart Guardian, Long Kong... Xiaoyue, who had only ridden the wind unicorn for two days, was particularly excited and eager to show her skills in actual combat and experience the power of the ninth-level upper-level magic pet. And Shui Yunjian, Yin Zhuang Suguo and other water magicians who can help me show more powerful strength are indispensable participants. The crowd was enthusiastic and it was not long before enough manpower was recruited. There was still more than a day before the official action. In order to avoid alerting the Church of Light, our more than 100 players could not act together and could only sneak into the Western Continent in batches. As a wanted criminal who was too conspicuous and had the speed of a knight, I would definitely be arranged to be the last batch to set off. The task of discussing with Bai Yunjian and determining the final candidates for the battle was handed over to Afeng. There was nothing to do in the human world for the time being, so I entered the "Dead Space" again and continued to subdue the group of bone giants, so as to establish my own sphere of influence in the "Lost Continent" and move the Wu Ma here to develop. Compared with the terrifying dragon knights who were too scattered and only at the lower level of level eight, there were enough food waiting for them to enjoy. The prospect was tempting!
Panic, fear, and a hint of anger. As soon as I entered the "Dead Space" and appeared near the territory of the Bone Giant, I felt several negative emotions coexisting from my subordinates, including the Green Bone Dragon and the Bone Dragon. What I felt most familiar with was the deep hatred that came from instinct - every undead with a relatively large difference in strength, even including my newly conquered subordinates, felt this way when they first met Wu Ma, the Destruction Knight and the "Public Enemy of the Undead". However, the one who could make the lower-level ninth-level Bone Giant and the Bone Dragon feel so scared would definitely not be a small character like Wu Ma who was only at the middle level of the eighth level. It should be a more powerful and terrifying existence. Is it an intermediate Destruction Knight, or a high-level Destruction Knight? It is estimated that it will definitely not be the Great Demon Ultimate Destruction Knight that only exists in legends. According to records, wherever it passes, there will definitely be corpses everywhere and thousands of miles of red land. None of my subordinates who are only at the lower level of the ninth level can survive.
Everything was fine when he left. How could he have caused such a big trouble in just one day? Which subordinate was so blind that he provoked such a terrifying existence? He hurriedly asked his subordinates and finally understood the whole story.
As expected, they encountered a Destruction Knight. According to their description, his appearance was different from Wu Ma, and his strength was naturally much stronger. The mount under his crotch was a flying skeleton similar to a bee, but both the skeleton bee and the knight on his back were smaller than Wu Ma, and the weapon in his hand was not the long-handled battle axe of Wu Ma, the scorpion, but more like a snake-tipped spear. His speed was much faster than that of the bone dragon, and his attack methods were quite strange, which was difficult to guard against. He could easily kill a bone giant or a bone dragon in a one-on-one fight. It was estimated that his level would be at least not lower than the upper level of level nine.
It wasn't my men or the untamed bone giants in the territory that rashly provoked the Destruction Knight, but it wandered into this area and took the initiative to kill about a day ago. At first, they hid in the periphery and secretly attacked and killed scattered targets. My men followed orders and acted in groups. No one was left alone. The only losses were the bone giants in the territory. Because of its high level, the low-level bone giants and bone dragons could not sense its evil breath and had not discovered the existence of the Destruction Knight. So when I summoned the bone giants to fight in the "Mind Castle", I didn't hear the report. Later, when it killed a bone giant, several bone dragons under my command accidentally saw it from the air, and then they knew of its existence. "The public enemy of the undead" is the instinct of every undead creature to kill it on sight. Even if they know they will die and are afraid, they will never retreat. I am not nearby, and I can't use the binding force of the "Soul Contract" to forcibly suppress their nature and order them to retreat. Therefore, while issuing a warning, those idiots rushed forward without hesitation to die, fighting fiercely with an opponent who was much stronger than them. In the end, by the time the nearby undead heard the news and rushed over to force the Knight of Destruction to retreat, one person had died and three were injured, and I had suffered a loss in vain.
Although it was discovered, the Destruction Knight still lingered, probably because he was confident of his strength and there was no powerful existence nearby that could threaten it. He even intensified his attack, changing from sneaky raids to open robberies. Relying on its fast speed, it was not afraid of sieges. It would kill when it got a chance, and run away when it couldn't win. Even my gathered men were unable to protect themselves and were killed by it. The difference in strength between the two sides was large, and neither could do anything to it, and could only endure the torture of bloody terror all the time.
The Destruction Knight of the ninth level is definitely not something I am capable of conquering now. Even though I am quite jealous and there is no benefit, I don't want my men to sacrifice in vain. However, its target seems to be this group of bone giants. According to the habits of the Destruction Knight, it will definitely not let go of suitable prey easily. If it can kill them all, it will definitely not leave a single one. If I don't want to conflict with it and want to keep my men safe, I can only choose to stay away from here and let the bone giants in the territory be killed or injured. In that case, it is equivalent to giving up this territory and it is impossible to use it as the first sphere of influence in the "Lost Continent" - once there are no more bone giants in the territory, this territory will be judged as an abandoned place by the system. The undead of other races, whether hostile or not, do not need to avoid it and can freely travel through the territory and airspace without being judged as an invasion. It has lost the relevant rights granted by the system and can no longer serve as a safe shelter for the horseless.
Because I had crossed Dragon Bone Mountain and rushed back to "Yinfeng Valley" and "Hell Volcano" to deal with some things, and I also needed to spend some time to survey the Dragon Bone Mountain, prepare for the migration of Wuma, and finalize the specific route. I have only conquered more than 40 of the one or two hundred bone giants. I originally thought that they were already in my pocket and there was no need to rush to conquer them before everything was ready. I didn't expect that someone would come out to compete with me halfway and insisted on taking away my benefits. It was really annoying.
If it was just a piece of territory and a hundred bone giants, the demon was difficult to deal with, and I would have given it up after gritting my teeth. It would only delay development for a few days at most. But the reason why the Destruction Knight was dubbed the "Public Enemy of the Undead" was because it was like a locust, eating wherever it went, not just a little bit, but a large area at a time. All the undead above level nine in the surrounding area would probably become its target. With this scourge, it would definitely take all the benefits, and I would forget about developing my power in this area. If I move to another place, I have not found a second target suitable for conquering and settling so far, and I am afraid that the delay will be more than ten days or half a month.
Before I could come up with an idea, my subordinates sent me a message that the Knight of Destruction had attacked again. I forcibly suppressed the instinct of several Bone Dragons that had noticed it, and just asked them to stay nearby, be careful to hide, and not take part in the battle, so that I could observe through their eyes.
The creature he was riding was indeed an undead animal similar to a bone bee, only a little over one meter long. Even the Destruction Knight was only about two meters tall, and looked a little thinner than the horseless one. It was black and red, but with faint white stripes. He held a three-meter-long bone snake-tipped spear in both hands. It flew very fast, and without any preparation, it could move around without any warning. Because they had noticed that this "undead public enemy" was lurking nearby, the bone giants, who had always lived and moved alone, had to gather in groups of three or five. There were three of them, leaning back to back and resisting desperately, waiting for their companions nearby to come to their aid. However, in front of the powerful Destruction Knight, they were still at an absolute disadvantage with a three-to-one ratio, and they were constantly hurt. The key is that the attack of the Destruction Knight is too weird, which surprised me when I saw it for the first time. He was clearly rushing towards you with a snake-tipped spear, but his figure suddenly disappeared in the middle of the attack. In an instant, he appeared beside you, appearing and disappearing, as if he was performing "teleportation". The attack was imminent, and it seemed that he could appear and disappear in any direction, almost without buffering time. It is extremely disadvantageous for opponents with slow speed or large body, and it is difficult to effectively prevent it. Compared with the Scorpio Horse, who focuses on slashing and winning by strength, this Bone Bee Knight pays more attention to agility and skills. The spear stabs out, seemingly just one blow, but once it hits the body, it often stabs two or three times. The attack frequency is high, which can cause greater damage to the opponent.
After a fight, more bone giants came. The Destruction Knight had killed two of them, devoured their souls, and fled away, leaving a group of helpless bone giants roaring madly. If I don't intervene and let it continue to attack like this, it is estimated that within two days, this group of bone giants will no longer exist. Even if it is updated by the system, I don't know where they will end up, and I may not be destined to see them again.
According to my reconnaissance, there is no powerful existence nearby that can threaten the Knight of Destruction. Unless a strong man happens to pass by, it is the invincible overlord in this area. I really don’t know what the undead in the "Lost Continent" have been doing. They actually cultivated such a powerful "public enemy of the undead". Are they too incompetent, or is this Knight of Destruction too smart?
At this point, I can't stand by and watch after weighing the pros and cons. Such a powerful being, if I can't use it, is definitely a hidden danger. It may endanger the safety of the undead I have conquered at any time, and it may also be a big threat to Wu Ma - it is said that the Destruction Knights kill without blinking an eye, and there is no information to prove that they will cherish the friendship of their fellow disciples and will not kill their own kind. If the fellow disciples are enemies, Wu Ma will be dead .
I can't let this Destruction Knight go, but after witnessing its powerful performance, I can't rely on the Bone Giants who can only engage in land battles to surround and kill it. I also don't intend to rely on the dozens of Bone Dragons and Green Bone Dragons that I spent a lot of effort to subdue to fight it head-on - not to mention that I will definitely pay an extremely heavy price. I can't match the speed of the Destruction Knight. Once he realizes that he can't win, the opponent can escape at any time. I can't deal a fatal blow to it, and the chance of success is too low.
Fortunately, the Destruction Knight is a "public enemy of the undead" that everyone kills. I don't need to design a plan to sow discord. I just need to guide the path, and with the help of other undead forces, I can help me eliminate this scourge. There is no trace of the ninth-level upper-level undead in the "Lost Continent" for the time being, but there are ninth-level upper-level black bone dragons in the Dragon Bone Mountain. As long as they are lured over, they are enough to be the opponent of the Bone Bee Destruction Knight. Unfortunately, because the bone dragons that have seen the Bone Bee Destruction Knight are all subdued by me, my will has overwhelmed their nature, so they have lost the qualification to gain the trust of their own kind and cannot prove the existence of the Bone Bee Destruction Knight to them. Otherwise, as long as a message is passed, it may attract a large group of pursuers. If it cannot be killed, it should be driven away, saving me a lot of trouble.
After more than a day, we still need to attack the NPC garrison of the light at the entrance of the "Death Canyon" in the western continent. I can't stay here for too long, so I immediately took a dozen bone dragons into Dragon Bone Mountain to carry out the plan of luring the enemy. In fact, this task is not that simple. Although there seem to be many black bone dragons living in Dragon Bone Mountain, most of them are overlords who occupy the mountain as kings. Even if I send people to tease them, targets like bone dragons that are not of much value will only chase them out for a while at most, and will not easily leave the territory of Dragon Bone Mountain. I once wanted to use the "Soul Collection Finger" to subdue more targets. After several experiments, I wanted to lure the white bone dragons that occupy the mountain as kings away from Dragon Bone Mountain and gather them together for easy subjugation, but I failed. Therefore, I can only choose those wandering black bone dragons as the targets of seduction. They have no responsibilities and are very idle. Once they are angered, they may chase out of Dragon Bone Mountain.
Although there are very few wandering black bone dragons, I happen to have one on hand - I asked the bone dragons staying in Dragon Bone Mountain to keep an eye out for it. Once found, we must follow it from a distance to grasp its location. Originally, I just felt that things are valuable because they are rare, so it would be convenient to take action when I need it in the future. I didn't have any specific plans at the moment, but I didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
However, they only found this one black bone dragon. There was no time to continue searching, so they could only lure it out to fight. To be on the safe side, they also arranged for the bone dragon to seduce two level nine intermediate white bone dragons who knew the location, so as to assist the black bone dragon to fight against the bone bee destruction knight.
The White Bone Dragon is the only one among the known types of bone dragons that cannot spit out dragon flames, but it has extremely strong physical attack and defense capabilities, as well as a fast flying speed, which can be regarded as the best among all types of bone dragons. Although its magic defense ability is slightly weaker, it is only relatively speaking. It should be able to play a role in the battle against the Bone Bee Destruction Knight. The Black Bone Dragon, like the Hell Dragon, is a half-magic and half-martial type. Its physical attacks, especially the undead magic, are also very difficult to deal with. For example, it can release a cloud of black fog to cover a space of one or two hundred square meters, blocking the opponent's vision, but it has no hindrance to itself and can enter and exit at will. It can also continuously spray up to six black magic bullets with a diameter of more than one meter, firing one shuttle after another, which is much more powerful than the White Bone Dragon.
It also takes some skills to lure the enemy. To provoke the anger of the black bone dragon and the two white bone dragons and lure them to chase after them, you must be careful to grasp the degree. Especially during the escape, the distance between each other cannot be too far, lest they lose interest in continuing to chase, nor can they be too close, which is too dangerous and can easily cause injury or even death. Whenever the target's anger subsides a little and has the intention to give up the pursuit, it is necessary to tease them and rekindle their anger. The three teams that lure the enemy need me to constantly give instructions. When necessary, arrange other bone dragons to harass and support them from the side or relay them, and try my best to lead them out of the territory of Dragon Bone Mountain, but I found the existence of the Bone Bee Destruction Knight.
After much effort and several times of almost letting the target escape, I finally succeeded in luring a black bone dragon and two white bone dragons away from Dragon Bone Mountain. I chased them around the periphery first, so as not to alert the enemy and scare the Bone Bee Destruction Knight away from showing up again. I didn't have much time to waste with it. When I received the news that it was attacking again, I immediately led the three targets to the vicinity of the Bone Giant's territory.
The Black Bone Dragon and the Bone Bee Destruction Knight, who were of the same level, almost noticed each other's presence at the same time. The Bone Bee Destruction Knight's men slowed down, looked up, paused for a moment, and immediately left behind a few bone people and rushed towards the Black Bone Dragon. It seemed that they were sure that they could defeat the Black Bone Dragon and wanted to kill this fat sheep first. The Black Bone Dragon also stopped chasing the Bone Dragon, which was already close at hand, and circled twice in place, as if sensing the specific location, and then suddenly roared, turned around and flew towards the direction of the Bone Bee Destruction Knight.
The two strong men finally met, and a fierce battle broke out. The teleportation attack of the Bone Bee Destruction Knight was indeed difficult to defend against. With the strength of the Black Bone Dragon, it suffered several losses in the few encounters. In addition, with the existence of the "Destruction Field", close combat was quite disadvantageous to it. So it immediately landed on the ground and used undead magic to attack. At the same time, the other two white bone dragons also discovered the existence of the Bone Bee Destruction Knight and rushed over to join the battle. Finally, the situation was stabilized. There was no hope of victory, but it was not defeated too quickly.
Three against one, they were still no match for the Bone Bee Destruction Knight, which made me secretly surprised at its strength. Fortunately, facing the "undead public enemy", the three bone dragons fought desperately for their lives. Although they were injured three points, they always returned one point to the Bone Bee Destruction Knight, making it not as easy to kill the bone giant. And I naturally would not miss the opportunity to add insult to injury. I did not dare to send the bone dragon to fight, for fear of scaring it away, and hid aside to plot with "mental attack". Anyway, I had "Touch of Death" to supplement it, and the more times I attacked, the more damage it could cause.
The two white bone dragons died in battle one after another, and the black bone dragon was also seriously injured, and it was estimated that it would not be able to hold on for much longer. However, the condition of the Bone Bee Destruction Knight was not much better, and it was far less vigorous than at the beginning, and its injuries should also be quite serious. However, victory was imminent, and it was about to successfully kill the black bone dragon. It was probably not worth giving up this delicious meal that was about to be eaten, so it still persisted.
After storing up enough mental strength and preparing for the final round of attack, I took out the "Soul Sealing Card" - the Black Bone Dragon has a ninth-level upper rank, and it would be a pity to give it to the Bone Bee Destruction Knight who would never let it survive. I finally encountered a dying one, so I might as well seal it up and use it to save its life in a critical moment.
Seeing the opportunity, the Bone Bee Destruction Knight used another teleportation attack, approached the Black Bone Dragon, and stabbed it several times with his snake-tipped spear. At the same time, the Bone Bee's tail lifted up and swung out a sharp stinger more than one meter long, which also pierced the Black Bone Dragon's body. It was hit hard again, but this time the Black Bone Dragon did not choose to dodge abnormally, but endured the attack without moving. Then it roared, and before the Bone Bee Destruction Knight retreated, its body emitted a series of "crackling" explosions. The skeleton that made up its body suddenly exploded in many places, and small holes were blown out. Countless black rays shot out, covering the area of 10 to 20 meters around it. The Bone Bee Terror Knight, who had no time to retreat, was also hit by these black rays. Where the black rays hit his body, there were wisps of black smoke and slight explosions. It even seemed to be restricted in movement and did not continue to retreat to the rear.
After performing this move, the Black Bone Dragon looked even more listless, probably because it was seriously injured. The Bone Bee Destruction Knight was injured and stabbed with his spear, but it seemed to be met with great resistance, and every inch of progress seemed quite difficult. Seeing that it was difficult to move forward, the mount suddenly flashed black light twice, and its condition became even worse. The Bone Bee Destruction Knight suddenly seemed to have gained new strength, roared, swung his spear and stabbed into the body of the Black Bone Dragon.
The already dying Black Bone Dragon could no longer hold on, and with a shrill howl, the black light completely converged, and its body glowed with the white light before death. While the Bone Bee Destruction Knight was mostly focused on the Black Bone Dragon, ready to devour its soul, I ventured to sneak nearby and threw out the "Soul Sealing Card" in time to seal the Black Bone Dragon first.
Oops, God is not on my side, the "Soul Sealing Plate" failed. A black light flashed, and it fell back into my hand in its original form. The Bone Bee Destruction Knight waved its spear at me and roared in a threatening manner, expressing its extreme dissatisfaction, but it had no time to care about me and began to concentrate on devouring the soul of the Black Bone Dragon. It was already a relatively rare ninth-level upper stage. Being able to kill an undead of the same level was definitely a rare feast.
There was no time to feel upset about the failure of the seal. There was still the most important battle to be fought. He launched three "mental attacks" in succession, sparing the body of the Destruction Knight and focusing on its mount, the Bone Bee. At the same time, a group of Bone Dragons and Green Bone Dragons that were ambushing nearby also rushed out and surrounded the Bone Bee Destruction Knight from all directions.
I don't know if it was the black light of the Black Bone Dragon before it died that played a role, or if my last "mental attack" accelerated the collapse of the Bone Bee, forcing the Destruction Knight to lose energy to the Bone Bee several times when he was surrounded. The most direct consequence was that he lost his speed advantage and was surrounded on all sides. After a desperate attack, he was no longer able to fight his way out of the siege, and finally he was seriously injured and shone with a white light symbolizing death.
I had never thought of taming it. Compared to the bone dragon, the heaven-defying knight of destruction was more difficult to tame. But as if by some strange coincidence, or perhaps it was a subconscious action after failing once before, the moment I saw the white light, I unconsciously threw out the "Soul Sealing Card" that I had been holding in my hand...
It actually worked. I was stunned by the result. Oh my god, why did I waste a "Soul Sealing Card" to seal a Destruction Knight who should have been killed to prevent future troubles. I subconsciously glanced at the content displayed on the "Soul Sealing Card" - "Name: Ibola; Rank: Intermediate Destruction Knight of the Swift Bee."
