Chapter 264 The Round Table Arrives
It can be seen that the dark gold dragon transformed by Luo Qiu is not at a disadvantage when dealing with the Nether Bone Dragon Knight. The violent shock caused by the fierce battle between the two has affected the battlefield of the Imperial Army.
The soldiers looked up at the two terrifying figures and felt upset. They could not intervene in such a battle and could only hope that the Dark Gold Dragon would win.
But the battlefield that belongs to them is now overwhelmingly unfavorable.
The number of undead is increasing. These tireless monsters will launch the most fierce attack on the soldiers even if they are hit by swords, their arms and legs are chopped off, as long as they have not fallen completely.
The sun was setting and it was already dusk. Once night fell, the Imperial Army would be at an overwhelming disadvantage because humans had limited night vision and the undead would be the only ones to dominate the night.
Coupled with the rapid consumption of physical energy, the soldiers of the Imperial Army were somewhat exhausted and were already showing signs of decline.
If this continues, it will be impossible to end the battle before dark.
"Why haven't you come yet?" Angele, who had been confident of winning, was a little anxious. Could it be that the man didn't intend to fulfill his promise when he left? Why hasn't he come yet? He said he would definitely come before dark?
This shouldn't happen. With her status, how could she lie? Besides, her own brother was also on the battlefield, how could she abandon him?
"Hey, old man, where is the secret weapon you promised? Why are you waiting to use it now?" Genos rolled his eyes at Angele after killing the undead around him one by one.
Why did he feel like he was being cheated by this old man?
The promised final trump card has not even been seen. It will be really dangerous if it continues like this.
"I" Angele was about to say something when his face suddenly changed and he shouted, "Be careful, it's an undead assassin!"
Two assassins who had sneaked into the darkness suddenly stabbed out their dark blades, aiming straight at Genos' heart. They were so fast that even Angele couldn't stop them in time.
Genos was worthy of being the seventh seat at the round table. After noticing the sudden attack of the undead assassin, he shouted angrily: "Get out of here!", and released his fighting spirit to form a holy light barrier. The undead assassin's dark blade trembled violently after touching the holy light barrier, and then began to burn from the tip of the blade as if ignited by flames.
"Holy Sword Skill - Punishment!"
The lightning of punishment whizzed down, and a blue-white lightning shot out from the Holy Cross Sword, and the bodies of the two undead assassins were roasted into charcoal and fell to the ground.
"How is it? Can you still hold on?" Angele took a step forward and forced away a few undead who were about to take advantage of the situation, and asked Genos, who was about to fall, with concern.
"It's a bit difficult." Genos smiled bitterly. The previous attack really consumed too much of his energy and fighting spirit, so much so that he almost fainted after releasing such an attack.
"I think we are in big trouble." Angele's voice suddenly became very bitter.
Genos had a bad premonition, he held up the Holy Cross Sword and looked forward.
There are five undead mages, eight undead warriors, four undead knights, and three undead assassins.
These are the undead who developed self-awareness and reappeared after Genos killed the undead assassin.
Such numbers are despairing.
Originally, Angele was a little confused as to why there were only five evolved undead in such an astonishing number of undead army. It turned out that the first wave was just bait to paralyze them.
And now, these undead beings have all appeared on the scene, creating an absolutely desperate scene. They have dealt an absolute heavy blow to the Imperial Army at this most difficult moment!
"Uncle, are you ready to run away?" Genos suddenly asked.
"Run away?" Angele smiled, wiped the blood that had splashed on his face, and said, "Stop saying things that are not even a joke. Protecting the empire is my duty. If I run away when I encounter such a small difficulty, the name of 'Imperial Sword' will be tarnished." "Really? The responsibility of the Knights of the Round Table is heavier than the 'Imperial Sword'. It seems that I have to stay with you for a while longer." Genos also laughed, forced himself to cheer up, and slowly raised the Holy Cross Sword.
However, the light of the holy sword was dimmer and weaker than ever before.
"let's go."
Just as the two were about to fight to the death, silver beams of light lit up around the battlefield.
One by one, solemn-looking paladins walked out from the light column. After entering the battlefield, they drew their weapons without saying a word and launched the most violent attack on the undead.
"The Holy Cross of Glory!"
“Pray with the Word of God!”
"Pure White Blade!".
Dazzling holy lights flickered like stars. The undead turned into black smoke and dissipated after encountering the purifying holy light. The imperial soldiers, who were already exhausted, found strength again after seeing this scene. They roared and stabbed their swords into the bodies of the undead. For a moment, the human side once again gained the upper hand.
"This is..." When Genos looked at the suddenly appearing paladins in confusion and had no time to react, a familiar roar sounded in his ears.
"Holy Sword Skill - Hammer of Divine Punishment!"
The Hammer of Light extending from the Holy Sword emitted a dazzling light. Even the evolved undead in the distance could sense the dangerous aura emanating from the Hammer of Divine Punishment.
That is the smell of death.
When the Hammer of Divine Punishment fell, the undead who sensed the crisis immediately took the most appropriate action and retreated backwards in unison.
The falling speed of the Hammer of Divine Punishment was slightly slower. When it landed, all the undead were out of its attack range. The hammer fell to the ground as if it had hit nothing.
The ground was shattered, splashing countless pieces of gravel, and a golden electric current quickly extended from the ground to the feet of the two slowest-moving undead mages.
"what!!!"
Screams were heard, and the two undead mages trembled violently after being hit by the electric current. Their evil spirit magic shields did not provide any protection at all and shattered like bubbles. Their bodies trembled uncontrollably as if they were crazy, and finally fell to the ground with a thud amid wailing.
"The ninth seat at the round table, Raven."
And then, in a burst of crimson flames, two more undead assassins died. A knight in flame-like armor walked over, "The sixth seat at the round table, Enfei."
Five needle-thin sword energies shot out from a certain direction and attacked the evolved undead.
As if enraged by this series of attacks, the two undead knights roared and smashed the steel shields in their hands, trying to block the five sword energies.
puff! puff! puff! puff! puff!
A subtle penetrating sound was heard, and five small holes of the same size appeared on the steel shield, and the head of the undead knight was pierced by it.
"Second seat at the round table, Lanster."
