Chapter 322, Dusk Forest, Skeleton Castle
Deep in the twilight forest.
In the dark castle.
An owl cried twice.
Then in a coffin under the castle.
A pale hand opened the lid.
Slowly crawled out from inside.
"Dear Queen, you should wake up."
A sinister voice came from the darkness.
Along with the sound of the voice.
Soon, a woman in a black robe crawled out of the coffin.
"Click".
The oil lamp in the secret room of the castle was lit.
"Mira!"
"It's not time to eat yet."
"Why wake me up!"
The queen who crawled out said to the darkness with dissatisfaction.
And a figure slowly appeared over there.
A vampire with long fangs.
"Queen, I didn't wake you up."
"It's the enemy that invaded the Dusk Forest!"
"Information from the capital."
"King Cangfeng assembled a 10,000-strong army of extraordinary nobles and marched towards the Dusk Forest."
"They want your harp, Queen!"
The words were not finished yet.
The Queen's figure turned around suddenly.
"Harp!"
"How did they know about the harp!"
The vampire named Mira shook his head.
"That's unknown."
"But what is certain is that with the speed of the extraordinary army's march."
"It will soon reach the Dusk Forest."
"I have awakened all the shadow army."
"But this time we are facing a 10,000-strong army of extraordinary nobles."
"We need your support."
The Queen nodded slightly.
At the same time, she subconsciously touched her right hand.
"If we enter the Dusk Forest, they are nothing to fear."
"The Shadow Legion can be resurrected infinitely in the Dusk Forest, and they cannot kill any of the Shadow Legion's soldiers."
"Enter the Dusk Forest."
"These extraordinary nobles can provide some blood food for replenishment."
"I have been sleeping for too long and lack the replenishment of extraordinary blood."
"The power of those seals has begun to drain my power again."
"I need more divine blood to resist the power of the seal."
"Mira, how many extraordinary people are imprisoned?"
Vampire Mira replied without hesitation.
"Less than three hundred."
"The creatures with divine blood in the Dusk Forest have become extinct."
"These three hundred are the last."
The queen opened her mouth and revealed her sharp teeth.
"Then eat them all."
"It's just right to empty the cell, and wait until the 10,000 extraordinary legion is captured and imprisoned."
"In this way, I can resist the erosion of the power of the harp."
"Hold on until all the bodies are unsealed."
"Take me to the place of imprisonment."
Mira bowed slightly.
"Yes, sir!"
At the same time.
Outside the Dusk Forest.
The army of the extraordinary people of the Blue Wind Empire has appeared.
The commander this time is the Duke of the Blue Wind Empire.
It's just that he is the nominal commander.
The Duke has long been controlled by the Blood Crow.
This time, the Blood Crow even possessed the Duke's body.
And the other deputy commander.
It is the undead clone covered with a black robe.
When the army appeared in the Dusk Forest.
The Blood Crow narrowed his eyes slightly.
In the sky, countless blood crows were flying.
Swept over this area.
After a moment, he said.
"It is certain that Fang Yuan's army has not arrived yet."
"Our speed is still acceptable."
The undead on the side did not answer.
Instead, he stared at the Twilight Forest in a trance.
After a long time, he suddenly said.
"I can sense that there is a force in it that is more evil than the undead."
"We want to enter the Twilight Forest, but I'm afraid it won't be so easy!"
Blood Crow didn't care.
"The 10,000-strong army of extraordinary people are all well-trained."
"After death, the bones are transformed into undead, and the souls are devoured by blood crows, giving birth to new blood crows."
"We can create twice as many armies to participate in the war."
"What's so scary about this!"
He said without caring about the opinion of the undead master.
He gave orders directly.
"Send three hundred vanguards to explore the way."
Soon, three hundred extraordinary people stepped into the Twilight Forest.
When they walked in.
Countless black mists rose in the forest.
They disappeared immediately.
And a moment later.
There were wailing sounds coming from the dusk forest.
Then a warhorse escaped from the forest.
There was a cavalryman with only half of his body left on it.
This scene immediately caused panic in the Extraordinary Corps.
Then a voice came from the Dusk Forest.
"You are not welcome here."
"Get out!"
After hearing this, Blood Crow showed anger on his face.
"Looking for death!"
He thought about it and took out a blood-colored scroll item.
"It's just a barrier."
"What's so great about it."
"Break!"
The scroll was thrown out.
A beam of blood shot out.
The thick black fog in the Dusk Forest directly opened up a road.
At the end of the road, an ancient castle could be seen.
Blood Crow saw this.
"Send an order."
"All legions, enter the forest immediately."
In a moment, the morale of the Extraordinary Corps soared and began to march towards the Dusk Forest.
But when all the legions entered.
The Undead and Blood Crow soon discovered it.
The opened road was soon covered by black fog.
At the same time.
Sharp cries rang out one after another.
The black fog condensed into black shadows and attacked them.
The black shadows could take away a transcendent every time.
But their attacks could only disperse the black shadows. Soon, these black shadows re-condensed and continued to attack them.
Faced with this strange scene.
The Undead and the Blood Crow felt tricky.
And just as they were wrapped in the black shadows.
At this time.
Outside the Dusk Forest.
Christian appeared at the entrance with the legion.
"From the footprints."
"At least tens of thousands of people have been stationed here."
As soon as he arrived, Cardoso, who was accompanying him, saw the traces of the previous transcendents stationed.
Christian nodded.
"When I came here, I heard that the king had sent tens of thousands of people to the forest."
"It should be them."
"I don't know what their purpose is."
"We all have to hurry in."
"Send the message, the Plantagenet Knights are the vanguard, the Demon-Breaking Warriors are the center, and the Sword-Destroying Griffins are the rear guard."
"Follow me into the Twilight Forest!"
After the legion led by Christian entered the Twilight Forest.
Soon they also encountered the strange Black Shadow Legion.
But there were Bol and Cardoso in their team.
They could see through the illusion.
Just shout.
"Circle formation."
"Some of these black shadows are fake."
"Listen to me, we can see through them."
But Christian soon found out.
Following them was not very efficient.
On the contrary, the Demon-Breaking Warriors' counterattacks were very efficient.
They could easily kill the black shadows every time.
And the black shadows killed by the Demon-Breaking Warriors would not be resurrected.
This immediately allowed Christian to find a way to crack it.
"The Demon-Breaking Fighter is the vanguard, and all the other legions follow closely behind."
As the formation was changed.
The Demon-Breaking Fighter's power opened the way.
These resurrected shadows were soon beaten back.
The number of resurrections was getting less and less.
At the same time!
Harold, who was accompanying them, used the Holy Light spell to dispel the black fog.
The group quickly found the right path in the Dusk Forest.
They found an ancient castle surrounded by black air.
The structure inside the castle was relatively simple.
There were cells above, used to imprison various extraordinary creatures.
There was a secret room below.
At this moment.
The ground-level prison cells of the castle.
Most of the neatly arranged stone chambers were empty.
Only a small part of them still had dejected prisoners.
Among them were giants, ogres, fishmen, elves, orcs, and humans.
There were even a few harpies.
The moment they saw the queen appear.
There was a look of extreme fear in their eyes.
"Queen, you must hurry."
"Just now, intelligence came that the scouts of the Extraordinary Legion have appeared outside the Dusk Forest."
Words to her subordinates.
The queen waved her hand.
"Got it."
Then she walked to the front of the cell.
She stretched out her right hand.
Suddenly, countless granules grew wildly, wrapping a weak giant.
In a moment.
The queen's originally pale face actually had a hint of blood.
"I have been sleeping for too long, and the feeling of being full is too comfortable."
"This giant actually has the blood of the ancient fire titan, which is a follower of the upper god."
"The taste is much better than the blood of those lower gods."
As she said, the spreading granules were retracted.
The queen gracefully waved her jade-like fingers.
She walked towards the next cell.
In the cell where the giant was originally imprisoned.
At this time, only a pile of black ash remained.
In this era, blood is like the basic cells that make up the human body to the extraordinary.
The cell structure of the human body is devoured.
It will turn into a pool of unknown meat, or even not meat.
Similarly, the fate of the giant who lost his blood is the same.
As the queen walked through the cells one by one.
The originally dry skin and fragile bones.
All were instantly filled with energy.
Now, she looks like a stunning young woman.
Just as she walked to the last cell.
When she was about to swallow the barbarians imprisoned inside.
Suddenly.
The vampire attendant Mira came over.
She looked hurried.
"Queen!"
"I think we are in big trouble."
"In addition to the extraordinary nobles, there is also an extremely powerful army attacking us this time."
"The Shadow Army is no match."
"They!"
"They are approaching the castle."
The queen, upon hearing the news, immediately retracted the extended flesh buds.
Turned around and asked.
"Powerful army?"
"Surrounding the castle."
"Impossible, the entire Dusk Forest is shrouded in illusion."
"Except for the Shadow Army I created myself."
"No creature can enter the forest!"
"Even if they come in, they are definitely not the opponent of the Shadow Army."
"They can rely on the power of illusion to quickly revive in the forest."
"It is absolutely impossible to be killed."
"Unless~"
"Unless the hunters of the Hunting Ancient God Association appear."
Just at this moment.
There was a slight vibration in the castle.
Then there was a loud "boom".
"This~"
Mira looked horrified, as if she had thought of something.
She said quickly.
"It's the castle wall."
"They must be attacking the wall."
"Queen, we must leave as soon as possible!"
"The Dusk Forest can't stop their attack!"
After hearing this, the queen's originally rosy face suddenly twisted.
"It's them."
"I can already smell the scent of hunters from the Hunting Ancient God Association."
"Let's go."
"These hunters who haven't appeared for hundreds of years must be doing their best this time."
He said that without caring about anything else.
He drew a circle with his right hand.
Take Mira and teleport away.
At the same time.
Outside the castle.
"Sir, 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 captain of the Devil Breaker said to Christian with a little apology.
"You have proven your strength."
"I didn't expect the power of the Demon-Breaking Warriors to be so strong."
"The Shadow Legion that can be resurrected infinitely in the Twilight Forest."
"You have suppressed them so much."
"Without you, we would not have been able to find the castle so quickly."
"Leave it to me next."
Christian said, glancing at Harold behind him.
The other party understood.
Immediately turned into an angel armor.
Christian, wearing the armor, summoned the spirit of light and turned it into a longbow.
Bend the bow and put the arrow.
Christian gathered strength.
A light arrow as thick as an arm was formed.
She calculated it secretly.
"Almost, if it is larger, it may destroy the castle."
Then let go.
The light arrow shot towards the castle at a high speed.
The shield that was originally shrouded in darkness was punctured like a bubble.
What was even more surprising was.
As the castle's shield was broken.
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 was broken.
The darkness that enveloped the Dusk Forest also began to dissipate.
And as the darkness dissipated.
The castle that everyone saw in front of them suddenly turned into a fortress made of countless bones.
"This~"
Everyone who saw this scene took a breath of cold air.
"No wonder there is such a strong dark power."
"It turns out that the core area is actually a skeleton fortress."
"How many people must have been killed to pile up so many skeletons."
Shocked.
Boll, who followed, rushed into the castle first.
Knights who abide by the seven virtues are enemies of all dark forces.
It's just a pity that Boll, who rushed in, got nothing.
No enemy was found in the castle.
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 demented from the castle.
"Sir."
"The people in the castle should have escaped."
"We found this barbarian in the cell."
"We found the harp in the underground secret room."
"Maybe this is what the lord needs."
Christian nodded.
"The task now is to find the harp. What to do next is waiting for the lord's order."
"As for the barbarian!"
"Take him back as well."
"Yes, sir."
When leaving.
Christian looked at the pile of bones.
She said in a low voice.
"Holy prayer, purify the holy fire!"
Suddenly, a flame composed of holy light ignited from the ground.
Directly burned the skeleton castle to ashes.
"Let's go."
Then he led people to the outside of the Dusk Forest.
And just as they walked out of the forest.
Suddenly.
The captain of the griffin knight who was exploring the way in front stopped.
Then he turned his head and said to Christian.
"Sir."
"We are surrounded!"
