holy flame

Chapter 012 Dead End?

Human beings are social animals, so they are afraid of being alone. Being in a quiet, lonely and dark environment for a long time can make people go crazy.

Samuel is now in such an environment. Although there are more moving skeletons and stinking zombies here, let alone these dead people give people a sense of belonging. Hearing the clicking sound of bones hitting, smelling The strong stench in the air will only make people more frightened.

If it was an ordinary person, if they encountered such a situation, they would either die of fright or commit suicide without waiting for the undead to attack with real swords and guns.But Samuel acted as if nothing was wrong. He surrounded himself and arranged a few scrolls - found from Martin - as simple magic traps, but not to kill the enemy, but to warn himself .Next, he lived his own life within an extremely narrow range. He passed the time by reciting the holy scriptures, and he also counted the time by reciting the holy scriptures. When the time came, even if he was not hungry or thirsty, he would force himself Eat, get water.As for sleep and rest, he learned from Da Vinci and used the method of extreme sleep.The calculation time is about four hours, and a short nap should not exceed 10 minutes, followed by more than four hours of waking, 10 minutes of sleep, and so on.

Under normal circumstances, Samuel would not find trouble for himself, but now if he had a sleep that lasted for several hours, he would be courting death.

Three days had passed like this, and Samuel and the undead were still confronting each other strangely, as if they were separated by an invisible line.In the cave, everyone is taking care of their own affairs, but for Samuel, there is nothing bothering him except that the smell in the cave is getting worse and worse because there are more and more zombies.

But on this day, Samuel estimated that it should be night, and the undead suddenly had other actions.The torch had been burned out more than two days ago, and Samuel could not see the movements of the undead, but the heavy footsteps of these guys were enough to make Samuel vigilant.But this sound is a bit strange, they are neither forward nor backward, but separated to the left and right... Samuel quietly waited for the possible attack, but in the end he smelled a sweet fragrance like a flower The smell, and this smell is getting closer and closer to him!

At first, Samuel wondered if it was the perfume used by a female necromancer. Samuel put his hand into the quiver, touched it around, and then took out a slightly different arrow—— If there is light, then you can see the silver spiral pattern on the shaft of this arrow, and the arrow head is also silver.

"Holy!"

The arrow instantly burst into bright silver flames and shot towards the direction of the scent!

Samuel himself was taken aback, because he had used this trick before, but the arrows carried only bits and pieces of light. How could there be such a dazzling sound and light effect?Moreover, he had been in the cave for a long time, and his eyes were used to the darkness. This light showed the great lethality of arrows to the undead, but the lethality to his eyes was definitely not small.Samuel closed his eyes for self-protection, and heard the strange screams of the undead from the opposite side, but he found that his eyes didn't feel pain, on the contrary, they were cool and comfortable - he used the extreme sleep method these days Although the spirit was guaranteed, the eyes were swollen and uncomfortable.

When he opened his eyes again, although it was still dark, he was sure that his eyesight was normal.Although there are still doubts, life-saving is the first priority now, and Samuel quickly put this mystery behind him.And the moment before he closed his eyes, he did see the zombies parting a narrow road, but there was no perfumed female necromancer in the middle of the narrow road, only a strange line of blood...

"Brightness." Even though the lighting technique did not consume much holy power, Samuel insisted on using it until now. After all, the holy power of a knight is too precious, but the enemy's situation is too important now.

A soft light appeared in the cave, and Samuel's eyes didn't feel any discomfort at all. In fact, when he was illuminated by the light, he still felt as comfortable and cool as last time.But this is not the case with the undead on the opposite side. Where the light sees, they retreat in fear.

Samuel didn't care about these low-level undead. What he paid attention to was the ground. The blood line was still flowing, drawing mysterious and evil runes on the ground.That is the undead transformation array used by necromancers!Painted with specially processed human blood, the effect is to transform the living into the undead.The stronger the transformed living person, the more complex the magic circle to be drawn, and the stronger the transformed undead!But at this moment, as far as Samuel knew, he was the only living person. Whoever this magic circle was prepared for could be imagined with his toes!This also explains why these undead didn't attack, because they wanted to live.

"Wow!" A carrion crow flew in and landed on the head of a zombie, "You're fine, knight."

What came out of the scavenging crow's mouth was a voice that should be very young, but I don't know if it's the same for all necromancers. This voice is also hoarse and ugly.

"As a trainee paladin, I think you have already guessed the function of the map on the ground, then you should also know that when you enter the transformation formation, resistance can only bring you pain, and we..."

Samuel crushed the light ball of light, and to his surprise, the shattered spot of light fell to the ground and slowly disappeared.The necromancer was still speaking through the mouth of the crow, nothing more than to persuade Samuel that if it was for his own good, he should cooperate with them and become a part of the glorious and great undead creatures.

If there is really no way out, Samuel will probably cooperate with them.After all, subconsciously, he doesn't think he belongs to this world.There is no sense of belonging to the so-called gods, camps, or even races. After all, although they are all human beings with similar appearances, it is impossible for humans in the two worlds to have the same ancestors.Therefore, it doesn't matter to Samuel whether he is an undead or a human in this world.

But now, Samuel does have a way out that he can give it a go!

After eating the prepared lunch, because of the dampness of the cave, his food had already started to become moldy, but Samuel didn't seem to notice it, he wolfed down the food, and even drank three sips of water for the first time.Of course, that's all he has left.

"Knight, don't resist, because you will soon find out that all this is futile!"

The necromancer obviously noticed his movements and understood what he was going to do - from entering the cave to entering this cave, if the necromancers want to control the undead within the sight range, and also love the ground drawing method For a while, either they are standing at the entrance of the cave now, or they are in the cave!Catch one of them, and Samuel still has the possibility of escape.

"Brave! Holy! Judgment!"

The silver shield, the silver fire, and the silver holy cross instantly appeared and superimposed in front of Samuel.Holding his small wooden shield, he rushed towards the gap where the magic circle was depicted.

The magic circle that has been completed for a little while bursts into red light, as if it was instantly ignited by the silver flame dyed on Samuel's body.Samuel felt a tingling pain under his feet, as if something had penetrated through the soles of his boots, but soon a burst of coldness spread to the soles of his feet, and the tingling pain disappeared immediately, but when he took a step forward, the tingling pain came back even more And it was more painful than the last time, and then came the coldness that relieved the pain, and so on, like a vicious circle.Gradually, the effect of the cold was no longer so strong, and a numbness began to spread from the soles of the feet to the ankles...

Samuel knew that he had to leave the magic circle as soon as possible, and he had already found the figure of the necromancer along the blood line, not one, but three.

But before he rushed out, another "person" rushed out. It was fully enclosed and wearing heavy armor, but the helmet was open. Samuel could see that he had no skin, only a dark brown face with bare muscles. It holds a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. The sword is a large two-handed sword, and the shield is also a large long shield. Both are heavy weapons, but it seems to be waving two light feathers. This is an undead warrior, and has never On the face of it, this is a failure.It maintained its fighting instinct, but lost its sanity and consciousness.It's still just a puppet, not an undead "creature".

It swung its two-handed sword and slashed towards Samuel. Samuel knew that his small buckler would only be smashed against this kind of heavy sword, and might even hurt his left arm. The light suddenly flourished—the conversion array has almost completed half of it...

It is a nightmare for everyone that a heavily armored warrior can move as lightly as a leather archer.Samuel didn't dare to take it hard, so he could only walk slowly with him.The tingling feeling had gradually spread to his calf, which made Samuel a little powerless when he moved.During this period, his sword stabbed the opponent's body several times, but the thick armor protected him. Samuel knew that his attack was like a mosquito bite, and did not cause any harm to the opponent.But Samuel is not without progress, he found a "little" loophole.

Backing away again, Samuel suddenly lost his footing and fell to the ground. The sword of the undead slashed at his head. Samuel rolled on the spot and quickly rolled to the opponent's feet. The undead warrior swung his shield, trying to shatter Samuel's spine, but Samuel had already knocked the opponent's ankle with his own shield, and the undead's left calf flew away!With only one leg left, it obviously couldn't support its heavy body, and fell backwards to the ground.Samuel rushed forward to cut off its head, but a burst of arrows shot at it, and Samuel had no choice but to back away.

At some point, the zombies got out of the way, and a pair of skeleton archers had surrounded Samuel—this kind of work that required the flexibility of the wrist, among the low-level undead, only skeletons could do it.The undead warrior was shot into a porcupine, but as long as the head is not detached and the heart is not broken, this guy can still live.But Samuel can't do it, if he also becomes a porcupine, then there is only a dead end...

Just saw the way out, and now it's a dead end?

The scavenger crow that flew away during the battle flew back again, and an ugly laugh came from its mouth.
