Chapter 207: Counterattack
At this moment, the night sky was still dark. Under the illumination of the three blood moons in the sky, the tens of thousands of Skeletons on the ground were pulled out one by one into a ferocious shadow.
Among the tens of thousands of black shadows, there was indeed an extremely strange one. It actually extended all the way from the forest, just like a long snake that was being stretched endlessly.
This long black snake pa.s.sed through the chaotic battlefield and extended straight towards Heath.
At this time, everyone’s attention was focused on the battlefield. No one noticed this inconspicuous shadow. In a moment, it was already five steps away from Heath.
Seeing that the shadow was about to attack Heath, a crisp female voice suddenly sounded from the carriage behind.
“Be careful, Wizard!”
This voice instantly woke up everyone on the battlefield. Only then did everyone notice the strange shadow on the ground, and they were immediately shocked.
“Lord Heath, quickly dodge! Quickly leave that place!”
“Protect the Lord Wizard!”
Knight Aaron’s expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly brandished his sword to defend.
But at the same time, the black shadow on the ground suddenly exploded, and instantly transformed into a tall and st.u.r.dy figure holding a sickle. The sickle exploded with a white flame-like substance. It was as if the grim reaper from h.e.l.l had raised the sickle high and slashed down at Heath’s head.
Heath, who was on the ground, seemed to have just reacted. He only had time to activate a water s.h.i.+eld.
Boom! There was a loud sound.
The scythe and water s.h.i.+eld collided with each other, creating a violent explosion. White flames instantly engulfed Heath and the carriage next to him.
The white flames seemed to have an extremely high temperature. The carriage and the human shape in the flames were like a candle, melting at a visible speed.
“d.a.m.n it! put out the fire!”
“Sir Wizard!”
Knight Aaron rushed back in a hurry. Beside him, Martha and the other two cast several water spells in succession, finally extinguis.h.i.+ng the white flame.
However, only a few remnants of the carriage were left under the flame. Heath’s trace had long disappeared.
Everyone’s faces sank.
“Where’s the Wizard? It… It shouldn’t be?”
“It can’t be, it can’t be, it can’t be. The Wizard is so powerful, how could he be so…”
Everyone was in disbelief.
Before everyone could accept this fact, at this moment… a sinister laugh sounded from within the forest. “Keke, it’s useless. No one has been able to hit my G.o.d of Death’s Flames and been safe and sound. Your Wizard won’t be able to do it again, haha!”
At some point in time, a figure appeared in the forest behind them. The fire had burned most of the Skeletons, and the forest was suddenly empty, making this figure extremely conspicuous.
This was a man with a very hateful appearance. His entire body was wrapped in a black cloak, and the skin that was exposed to the outside seemed to have been burned by fire, revealing the scarlet muscles below and even the thick white bones below. Part of his eyes was already completely exposed, and the two scarlet eyeb.a.l.l.s that were rolling within looked extremely terrifying.
At the same time, a voice immediately followed. “Felix, where did your flames take the Necromancer’s Staff? I’ve already reserved the official-grade Wizard tool!”
Another man walked out from the forest. He was an extremely tall and st.u.r.dy man. He was only wearing a pair of pants, and his upper body was completely naked. His muscles were covered with fine hair, and he looked a little disgusting.
A woman’s voice followed closely behind. “You two, don’t waste time. Master and Iza are still waiting for us.”
A young woman came out from the forest. Compared to the previous two, this woman’s appearance was relatively normal. However, the strange thing was that the woman’s hands were not palms below her wrists. Instead, there were a pair of vertical bells. As she walked, the sound of ‘Ding-ling! Ding-ling!’ rang out.
Everyone was shocked and blurted out two words. “Dark Wizards!”
The skeleton man turned his head, and an ugly smile appeared on his ferocious face. “Hahaha, Dark Wizards? I like this t.i.tle. The only thing the Wizard Alliance is against is to name us after this.”
Knight Aaron’s face turned ugly, and the other members felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
Dark Wizards, and there were three of them at that. Under such circ.u.mstances, one did not need to think to know how bad the situation was.
Without time to think, Knight Aaron gritted his teeth. He decisively grabbed a Knight and said, “Kado, call the Princess out of the carriage immediately. Later, I will ask everyone to hold them back, and then you will immediately take Her Highness and escape. Do you understand?”
His main task was to escort Heath and the Elf Princess. Now that something had happened to Heath, the Elf Princess could not suffer any more injuries.
“Captain…”
Aaron said angrily, “This is an order!”
“Yes…”
Kado rushed to the carriage behind in a panic and quickly called the Elf Princess out.
At the same time, Aaron raised his sword and shouted, “Charge! Fight to the death!”
“Charge! Fight to the death!”
With that, with a clang, he drew his cross-shaped sword and charged forward. Seeing that, the guards behind him quickly followed.
The skeleton sneered. “You’re courting death.”
After saying that, he raised the staff in his hand. However, at this moment, a large hand stopped him. It was the burly man standing beside him.
The man sneered, “Don’t worry, let me play with you first.”
The skeleton man frowned, “Don’t waste time.”
The man said, “Don’t worry, it won’t take long.”
After saying that, he threw the skeleton man aside and rushed forward. As he ran, the man’s body began to undergo drastic changes. His thighs became thicker, and his body became stronger. The thick fur all over his body grew longer and longer, quickly covering his skin. His cheeks began to grow longer, and sharp teeth grew out of his mouth.
In an instant, the man actually turned into a wolf, turning into a werewolf.
“Hahaha, let me see what you are capable of!”
The man laughed loudly, and with a sudden burst of strength from his legs, he jumped seven to eight meters high, pouncing towards a Knight.
“Be careful, Yousi!”
The Knight’s reaction was extremely fast. The first thing he did was to stabilize his lower body and raise his cross-shaped sword to meet the enemy. He collided with the werewolf’s sharp claws, and with a loud bang, the werewolf did not move at all. The Knight who was trying his best to defend was sent flying.
Everyone’s expression changed drastically.
“Hahaha! Too weak! Too weak!”
The werewolf laughed maniacally as he charged into the group of Knights. He charged in all directions like a tiger charging into a flock of sheep. Wherever he pa.s.sed by, no Knights were his match.
In the blink of an eye, all the Knights had fallen to the ground.
It had only been a short while since the Knights led by Aaron had launched their charge until the Knights were defeated. Kato, who was behind them, had not even had the chance to break out of the encirclement with the Elf Princess before all the Knights had fallen.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment. The Knights stumbled together and looked in front of them with pale faces. Their eyes were filled with despair.
The smile on the werewolf’s face became even wider. He continued to walk forward, but at this moment…
Cras.h.!.+ At this moment, a crisp sound suddenly rang out.
It was the remains of more than a dozen Skeleton Wraiths in the middle of the empty ground that suddenly extinguished the green flames in their skulls. Then, they shattered into a pile of broken bones.
The werewolf’s footsteps paused.
He asked in surprise, “What the h*ll are Master and Iza doing?”
The bell-like woman behind him said, “Alright, Lewman, let’s end this quickly. Master and Iza are already expressing their dissatisfaction with us.”
The werewolf said dispiritedly, “Alright, alright. Anyway, there’s really nothing interesting about such a thing.”
As soon as he said that, an overbearing voice suddenly came from the forest.
“Since that’s the case, how about I play with you?”
This sudden voice made the werewolf slightly startled. He subconsciously turned his head to look outside the forest. “Who is it!?”
However, he only saw a black shadow on the other side.
The moment he turned his head, a black shadow suddenly appeared behind him. The black shadow quickly filled with colors, and the blurry outline became clear in an instant. In an instant, it turned into a human figure.
The werewolf’s two companions’ expressions changed drastically. “Lewman, be careful!”
At the same time, with a clang, the human figure behind the werewolf drew his cross-shaped sword and slashed down at the werewolf’s head!
