Chapter 35 The Battle of the Quarry (Part 1)

For Connie, Fang Zheng didn't take it to heart at all. He knew that the other party was hurt more than he was, and the Templars in Malt were not very proficient in treatment. In fact, the priest in charge of treatment among them He had been killed in the previous ambush battle, which is why the group of people behind Malte fought so hard. If it wasn't for Fangzheng treating a few people later, I'm afraid they haven't been able to recover their combat effectiveness yet.

Although the trouble of Connie appeared, in any case, Fang Zheng and Stone had successfully completed half of the task, and they had already found the remaining Templars here. Logically speaking, as long as they are brought back, these troubles can be solved. However, it seems that neither Malt nor Stone seems to be planning to leave at the moment.

Malt is because he knew the conspiracy plan of the lich, and although Stone didn't know what happened here, he also sensed that something was wrong -- in fact, when Stone came here, he and Connie were still there. Miss M discovered the undead here, not only that, but they also saw the undead take those Templars into the quarry with their own eyes. In order to find out what these undead creatures want to do, and also to rescue his colleagues, Stone chose to enter the investigation alone. He originally asked Connie to come back and give Miss M a message to prevent the poor eldest from thinking wildly. Thinking of colliding with Fangzheng, and then... Hey, what do you call this!

"We don't have any extra time to waste now. That lich must have sensed what was going on up there."

As Stone spoke, he glared at Connie and Fang Zheng angrily. Facing his gaze, Connie lowered her head and said nothing, while Fang Zheng also shrugged his shoulders and put on a "do nothing for me" look. look. Seeing the reaction of the two, Stone rolled his eyes helplessly, and then looked at Marter again.

"What do you say, Malte?"

"…………"

In the face of Stone's question, Malte pondered for a moment, then he raised his head again to look at Stone.

"Are you sure, my colleague is still alive?"

"At least they were alive when they were taken in, and now... I can't guarantee it."

"…………"

This time, Malt was silent for a longer time, then he glanced at the others, seemed determined, and said.

"Stone, I need your help with something."

"Say."

"I hope you can help attract that lich's attention, and then... we'll find a chance to rush in and see if we can rescue our comrades, and if we can, maybe we'll be able to defeat what they're trying to accomplish in one fell swoop. Dark Ritual..."

Having said this, Malte turned his head and glanced at Connie.

"This girl also asks you. She is seriously injured now and has no fighting power. It's just a burden to take her there. It's better to stay here. If we can't come back, then please take her back to the temple."

"you……………"

Hearing this, Stone was stunned for a moment, and even Fang Zheng opened his eyes wide and stared at Malt. He is not a fool, of course he understands what Malt meant by this sentence. To ordinary people, it might seem a bit inhumane to make Malt's request, but as long as you think about it carefully, you will find that this request is simply unreasonable for Stone and Fangzheng. Say no to pressure!

Since Malt was only asking them as bait to get the lich's attention, it wasn't difficult, and there wasn't much danger, frankly. On the contrary, it was Marter and the others who had to go deep into the trap. After all, Shi Dong and Fang Zheng only needed to be responsible for taunting the outside world, and they could run by pulling the boss over. However, Marter and the others have to go deep into the core area. Although Marter said that they were trying to rescue their colleagues, Stone and Fangzheng were not fools. That lich spent so much thought on performing dark rituals, then the core area It must be a lot of danger. Malte and others said in the past that they wanted to sabotage the other party's plan and save people, but as you can guess, they will almost certainly never return.

Fang Zheng frowned, but looking at Shi Dong beside him, he didn't say much. To be honest, Malt and others are indeed worthy of the title of Templar. Frankly speaking, he can't bear to see the other party die, but now Malt has obviously made a decision in his heart, and Stone doesn't seem to intend to stop it, so Fang Zheng also Not good to speak again.

"………All right."

Finally, Stone sighed deeply.

"Mart, come back alive, I'm still waiting for you to invite me to drink."

"Don't worry, I won't die so easily."

After saying this, Malt smiled and waved at Fangzheng and Miss M, then turned around and left with his companions. Looking at Malt's back, Fangzheng was completely speechless... The flags on your back are all It's three meters tall, Marter Knight, how can I save you? And Shi Dong, you are also very happy to plant the flag. Can't you be merciful to your colleagues? Don't you know that you should stay on the front line as a person, and see you in the future? You have planted the flags like this, are they still worthy of you if they don't die?

"Okay, let's do it too."

Of course, Stone didn't know what Fang Zheng was muttering behind him, he just quietly watched Malt's back disappear, then turned to look at Fang Zheng.

"You know, our mission is to attract the lich's attention, fortunately, you and that girl just fought in the dark, it is estimated that the lich has already noticed that something is wrong, and then we just need to take the lich The demon will be pulled out, and it will be fine for him to take care of it."

"Drag it out? How to pull it?"

Hearing Shi Dong's order, Fang Zheng was also stunned, staring at his mentor in surprise. Frankly speaking, after staying with Shi Dong for so long, Fang Zheng has some understanding of Shi Dong. In his opinion, this great knight is more like a fierce general who leads troops and charges, and is not good at these strategies and plans. of. Because of this, after hearing Stone's order, Fang Zheng suddenly had a rather bad feeling.

In the face of Fangzheng's inquiry, Shi Dong clenched his fists, showed his white teeth and smiled heartily.

"Of course it's straight in!!"

“………………”

For the first time, Fangzheng felt that he should change his mentor... Maybe Marter is a good choice?

At this moment, in the depths of the dark and dark quarry, there is another scene.

In the huge underground cavity, the faint blue flame swayed and burned, and in the center of the cavity, a magic circle made of blood smeared with a faint brilliance. Just above the magic circle, a lich wrapped in black robes was suspended in the air. It raised its head, and in its empty eye sockets, scarlet brilliance flickered from time to time. Then, the lich looked at the skeleton soldiers beside him and gave an order in a low voice.

"You guys, go and see what's going on outside."

Hearing the lich's order, the heavily armed skeleton soldiers bowed respectfully to him, then turned and walked away. They used to be brave warriors in their lifetimes, but now, these soldiers have become undead slaves, their souls cannot rest in peace, and can only surrender helplessly to the power of darkness and death.

Yes, darkness and death are the true meaning of this world.

Thinking of this, in the eyes of the lich, the scarlet flame jumped suddenly, and then it issued an order.

"Bring the offering up."

Soon, following the lich's order, two tall undead giants came over pressing a Templar. The Templar looked very young, and was seriously injured at the moment, looking weak. He stared fiercely at the lich in front of him, his eyes revealing an extremely angry flame.

"You damned undead creature, your conspiracy will not succeed, and everything you do will be judged justly!"

"It's really boring."

Hearing the young knight's words, the lich snorted softly, then raised his hand and pointed at the young knight. Soon, a dark beam of light shot out from the lich's fingertips and hit the young knight's chest.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

And after being hit by this jet-black beam, the young knight turned pale, opened his mouth and let out a painful howl. The body began to tremble uncontrollably, and then, he saw bright red blood spurting out from the mouth, nose, eyes and ears of the young knight like a waterfall. The young knight seemed to suffer great pain because of this. He opened his mouth and instinctively wanted to. He let out a scream, but before the sound came out, it was completely blocked by the blood gushing out of his throat.

"Uuuuuuuuuu!!!"

At this moment, the young knight's eyes were even more wide-open, and he was holding his throat with both hands, as if a drowning person was trying to struggle to breathe, but no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't breathe any air. Because the "water" that drowned him didn't come from the outside, but from the inside of his body! !

"————!!!"

In the end, the young knight's body began to twitch wildly. He waved his hands like crazy and opened his mouth, but he couldn't make any sound, only blood mixed with bubbles spurted out of his mouth. out, flowing down his body to the ground. And the young knight lost his movement at this moment and completely turned into a corpse.

He was drowned in his own blood!

Although the young knight died, the blood flowing on his body did not stop because of this. Slowly, the young knight's body began to dry up like a deflated balloon. In the end, he became A skinny mummy. And those blood, under the influence of some mysterious power, slowly formed a huge bright red circle. And at the moment when the formation was completed, suddenly, a figure of nothingness emerged from the middle of the formation, waving its hands desperately, trying to escape this evil place. But the next moment the figure was pulled back like a dog on a chain, and disappeared into the circle again.

Immediately afterwards, in the center of the magic circle, a sarcophagus suddenly shook, and then fell into silence again.

"It's still not enough..."

Looking at the magic circle in front of him, the lich snorted coldly, and then it silently issued an order.

"Next."
