Act 5 The Knight

"Lord Martha, my soldiers opened the door, but it's already set on fire. My skeletons falter before the filthy flames, and I need a little time to get used to them."

The corpse witch stooped and buried her head deeply, the green flames in her eyes flashed a cunning light, but it put her dry arms on her chest to express absolute obedience——

Madara has a strict hierarchy, so that anyone who tries to go beyond will feel fear from the depths of the soul, especially the necromancers behind the black code are born good at manipulating and playing with the pain of the soul.

The necromancer apprentice tapped his dark black silk robe lightly with his pale and slender fingers. He stood on the hill overlooking the village below--Buch bells were ringing in the darkness, and human society was sinking into deep in fear.

But this nightmare has only begun. Not far away, the army of skeletons is disappearing into the darkness in rows. There is also a reserve team hidden in the woods on one side. Wave.

The next wave will use flaming arrows.

A faint blue flame, a cold soul fire.

The raging fire in the dark will panic all creatures, and he wants to create a little panic so that the skeleton soldiers will attack.

"How much time?" The voice of the future Necromancer was cold and sharp.

"This," the corpse witch lowered her head and estimated, "eight minutes, no, five minutes at most."

"I don't have the time, but I can leave you with a detachment. Eleven skeleton soldiers, is that enough, Kabuka?"

"Abundance, my lord."

The future necromancer sneered: "Be careful not to let the mouse escape through the back door."

"Please rest assured, master, I have already made arrangements at the back door according to the master's instructions."

"Then, I hope I get good news when I triumph, Kabuka," the necromancer apprentice pointed forward and gave his subordinate a meaningful look: "Now I am going to accept the surrender of this village and taste the human race. Enjoy eternal death in fear. But Martha on top, I hope my decision to attack early doesn't cause any trouble for Ser Instaron—"

"As you wish, my master." The corpse witch lowered her head deeply.

...

The house has become thick smoke billowing, and flames are gushing out from under the smoke from time to time. The rising flames not only block the invasion of the undead, but also block the sight of human beings.

The rising temperature has made the backs of the two of them hot, and the hot smoke has made them unable to open their eyes, and the throat and nose are tingling, but Sophie's heart is still cold.

What should he do?

"What's wrong?"

"Give me the hammer." The young man finally reached back. He listened carefully, and in addition to the flames burning, he vaguely heard a unique sound echoing among the mountains - the bell.

Butch's wake-up call.

Masha was on top, hoping that the guards in the village were smart enough, Sophie prayed silently in her heart. As for the militia, he didn't expect them to be just some hot-blooded young people, he just hoped that they would survive the night.

These people are the seeds of Eruin's future.

He immediately felt that he was thinking too much, maybe he couldn't even pass the next level, didn't he?

"Is there an enemy outside?" The merchant lady blinked and handed the hammer over.

"It's hard to say, but be prepared." Sophie tried her best to think on the bright side, but the better she thought, the worse the situation would be, and he had to prepare more. He is a veteran fighter, a veteran fighter does not rely on luck, but on caution.

"Brando."

"Huh?" He stopped opening the door.

"You seem to be a little different today."

Dressed up?

Sophie's heart tightened. That's not right,

It stands to reason that his character is quite similar to Brando, and he inherited the latter's memory, how could he be seen so quickly?

"How...?" he asked nervously.

"Well, I can't tell, it's just a feeling." The future merchant lady thought for a while and replied seriously, "Will you protect me, Brando?"

"Is there a problem with that?"

"No, thank you."

"You don't need to send me a good card, Miss Roman—"

"Eh?"

Sophie smiled slightly and did not answer, but the tension in her heart dissipated a lot invisibly. He took a deep breath, tensed, pulled the latch gently, and put his hand on the cold doorknob.

to open.

What kind of fate awaits him outside, a whole new world? Or a sudden death? God, you don't play with me like that, do you?

However, trying to figure out what Mrs. Martha meant without permission was extremely taboo.

"Miss Roman, when I count to three, you rush out with me."

"OK."

"three……"

"Well."

"Ouch."

"Sorry, I'm so nervous, I should count down..."

"It's alright, Brando..." Roman couldn't help covering his face. He bumped into the young man's solid back just now, making her blushing and her heart pounding.

She was not such a shy person before.

But Sophie didn't have the heart to understand the girl's mind, and making such an oolong made him a little embarrassed. He remembered that he should be very calm, but it was just a few small bones.

He gritted his teeth, opened the door, and before the smoke cleared, a shining long sword had stabbed in.

Sure enough, there was an ambush.

Sophie's heart has never been so quiet, as if the 31-year warrior experience in the game is now integrated with the life of this life, the black rose emblem of Bromantra in full bloom on the iron plate is so striking in his eyes - Mada The drawn sword drew a dazzling straight line.

Stiff, Sophie knows where the opponent's weakness lies—

He also understood that his own strength could not be reckless with him, and immediately pressed Roman with his backhand to avoid it - it was only a thin line, and the icy sharp sword only cut open the front of his shirt.

Then Sophie swung forward with a hammer, and after the smoke separated, there was a skeleton's rib cage, and with a crisp sound, the three ribs were broken back together.

The bone frame couldn't bear it and stepped back, while the young man took the opportunity to rush out of the sea of ​​fire.

He immediately looked around the battlefield, four skeleton soldiers - he couldn't help gasping for air, if there were only one or two bones, he might still have the heart to scold his mother, but at the moment there was only a coldness in his heart.

It seems that God knows his nature very well.

He only had one thought left: the other party really looked down on him, so he must have been treated as a scout.

That's true, Sophie believes that her performance is not much better than that of ordinary human scouts. Because in such a small place, the scouts are just ordinary hunters.

It's just that it's not a good thing to look too prominent...

He felt that Roman was holding his hand tightly behind him, and the girl's subconscious actions revealed her nervousness. He wanted to say something to comfort him, but he didn't know how to speak for a while.

Looking up, the dark forest in the distance is just below the hillside, but how do we cross the distance in the middle? He didn't have wings.

When the mountain wind blew, the wet forehead was icy cold.

Four skeleton soldiers have surrounded them.

What to do, close your eyes and wait to die? Sophie could only subconsciously protect the businesswoman behind her. She couldn't help but think that she would be better if she were a warrior of more than 130 levels. Dealing with these skeletons is just a matter of one move...

But there is no if in this world.

The reality is really annoying...

wait, level? The young man suddenly realized that he seemed to have overlooked something, and he couldn't help but shudder, yes, the ring of the queen! He had clearly killed a corpse witch and two skeletons with the Wind Queen Ring, plus the bone rack that Brando killed before he died, six points of experience!

In the game, it only takes five points of experience for a swordsman to upgrade from level 1 to level 2, not to mention militia?

The only hope is that it must not be too different from the game here - six points of experience, the all-knowing and almighty Lord Martha - as long as there is a new level, he will definitely have a chance to escape.

Sophie knew that she didn't have much time, and the four bones were already in front of her. He might only have one breath, four seconds, life or death.

He cast a dark green data on his retina at the fastest speed he could imagine——

XP: 6 (Civilian lvl 1:—, Militia lvl 1, 0/3)

Thank goodness!

He knew what he needed, and although it was an obvious waste to invest his experience in a profession like the militia, he couldn't care less at this moment.

It's better to be wasted than to be a cold corpse, isn't it?

"Military soldier, 6 points of experience, hurry up, let me level up!" He tried his best to meditate in his heart, the four bones had already raised the sharp sword in his hand, and he felt the business lady behind him hug him tightly.

"Brando, here they come!"

However, the data quickly changed.

XP: 0 (civilian level 1:—, militia level 2, 6/10)

A warm current flows through Sophie's limbs and bones. He understands that he can get 0.1 energy level strength correction and 0.1 energy level physique correction from the militia profession, but these are irrelevant——

You must know that swordsmen can get 0.2 energy level corrections in strength and physique from level 1 to level 2, not to mention additional improvements in dexterity and perception, so the militia is like a waste in comparison.

But none of this matters.

It is important that Sophie knows that when a character is promoted from level 1 to level 2, he will get the only three chance to choose a talent in his life.

Yes, this is the first time.

That is the fairest one.

Here will also be a new life for him.

He waited anxiously, one second was like ten thousand years, but finally the coat of arms that symbolized personal talent shone on his attribute panel——

"Innate skills, unyielding." Sophie's eyes seemed to light up a fiery flame, with four long swords attached to her body, he just raised the masonry hammer symbolically, avoiding the head, heart, abdomen and other important parts.

Flutter, flutter, flutter.

At least three swords were inserted into the young man's body at the same time, and he only had one feeling - that is, it really hurts!

However, Sophie knew that she, who had the ability to die hard, would not fall into a coma due to blood loss for at least five minutes, and would definitely not die due to any physical blow within half an hour.

Now he has only one chance, and that is to take Roman to escape from here, and then find the life potion in the remaining time.

He doesn't know if there is such a thing in this world, but he can only believe that there is.

Because he has no choice.

"Brando!" Roman's voice changed with fear.

"Hold me tight, Roman."

"I……"

"Hurry up on me!" The young man didn't have time to explain, and couldn't help but burst into anger for a while. At this moment, Brando, who was covered in blood, was like a real hero, making the girl unable to help but be in a daze.

"I see, I'm sorry, I'm sorry Brando."

Sophie took a deep breath, he didn't know this was the first time he had done this, but he really needed to calm down first. Although the inhalation made him feel the severe pain as if the wound was torn apart, he understood that the pain was just an illusion for him at this moment...

The three skeletons drew their swords, and they froze for a moment. Because in their eyes, this human being gradually lost the heat of life, and another kind of power spread out from his body.

Soul power.

Unyielding talent digs the fire of the soul within, which is similar to the exorcism of the undead.

Therefore, the undead thought that Sophie at this moment was their kind, but there was a misunderstanding here. Because Sophie didn't think so, he gritted his teeth and swung the sledgehammer to knock out the four bones.

This is not because the power of young people has suddenly increased, UU reading www. uukanshu.com purely because it completely exceeded the expectations of the other party.

Sophie grabbed Roman's hand and took this opportunity to rush out.

"Miss Roman," he said laboriously as he ran.

"In the."

"Listen..." Sophie said panting, her ability to die hard doesn't make people overstretched, and he already felt that the surrounding scenery was a little blurry.

All that was left was the whirring sound of the wind that was ringing in my ears because of the running.

"Yep?"

"If I'm in a coma, you take me to Buche, pay attention to avoid Madara... Go to the temple in the town and find... Life Potion, do you understand?"

"I-I understand, Brando... You won't die, right?"

"I don't know, cough... Let's see what Mrs. Martha has arranged..."

Sophie didn't know if the merchant lady really understood, but he only had the strength to say so much, and the rest was just like what he said - let it be fate.

He couldn't help but turn his head. In the blur, the hillside was blazing with fire. He sighed and closed his eyes tiredly - is he really that otaku who is addicted to games?

Maybe the past life is really far away from me at this moment.

I can't believe that I have such a brave and decisive day. Maybe even if I die like this, I will feel at ease.

"Because I'm no longer a waste..."

...

(PS. I will wait and see if today's results can make me watch the third shift.
