Heroes of Might and Magic: Knight Chapter 543: Killing (End)
"What do you mean?"
After Richard finished speaking, the uneasiness in the heart of the black-robed divine envoy became more intense. This uneasiness prompted him to take action quickly in order to deal with the opponent as soon as possible. As he spoke, his body solidified and he quickly attacked towards Richard. .
However, no matter how fast he was, it could not match the speed at which Richard raised his hand. A string of spells that sounded extremely obscure to humans but extremely clear to the ears of the black-robed **** made him feel like he was dying.
This spell is simply the nightmare of the gods and the envoys at the end of the Elf Empire. Many powerful gods fell to this ring. Even his master, a **** with a strong life-saving ability, was hit by this ring. Seriously injured and sleeping, how could He De, the messenger of God, be the target of this ring? During the Ragnarok period, a being like him was nothing more than a shrimp, and the Elf Holy Magister could take care of him.
The roughly translated meaning of that mantra is, "Gods should not exist in the world."
"Impossible!"
"How could the Mad Emperor's ring be in your hand!"
The black-robed divine envoy still couldn't believe that the ring would be in the opponent's hand. The ring that once made the world change color actually appeared in the hand of a "weak" human being.
"Boom!"
When the black-robed divine envoy's knife tip was about to approach, the terrifying impact finally made him realize that this god-killing ring was absolutely genuine. He frantically switched between the physical and incorporeal bodies, but to no avail. The soul contaminated with divinity had no room to escape under the God-killing Ring. His poor divinity, which was rewarded by the Lord of Shadows, was killing him. The divine ring disappeared without a trace in an instant under the impact, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.
"Bang!"
The two black shadows merged into one again, and finally fell heavily in front of Richard. The black-robed divine envoy also revealed his original face, and his handsome face still had a look of shock that could not be dissipated, but It was easy to imagine how frightened he had just been. There seemed to be no scars on his body, but Richard knew that under the impact of the God-killing Ring, this was just a soulless body.
"Using the God-killing Ring is really a kind of torture."
Although Richard became the winner again, his condition was not very good. After using the God-killing Ring to kill the black-robed divine envoy, he even lost the strength to lift his arm again, and there was a wave of pain in his head. The bursting pain hit him, making him feel a little dazed.
Biting the tip of his tongue, Richard forced himself to keep a clear mind and used all his strength to maintain a standing posture.
On the other side, Keshid's opponent suddenly disappeared without a trace. Although he had a lot of wounds on his body and looked **** and much more seriously injured than Richard, in fact, the deepest wounds were no more than bones. For the Protector Sword Master, the injury could only be considered a minor injury. It was just a broken muscle and bone, far from fatal. After using his fighting energy to seal a few serious injuries, Keshid turned to look at Li Check over there.
"My lord!"
After sensing that something was wrong with Richard, Keshid quickly rushed to Richard's side and wanted to reach out to help Richard, but was stopped by Richard.
"Don't worry about me, I'm just a little exhausted. If you can still swing the sword, go help Natalie clean up those shadow assassins."
"Yes, sir!"
After the death of the black-robed divine envoy, the shadow assassins who had been suppressed by a small number of night angels were quickly defeated. Especially after Keshid turned around and joined the battlefield, the shadow assassins lost their will to fight and were easily defeated by Keshid. After killing two shadow assassins, a few remaining shadow assassins tried to escape from the battle despite being injured, and finally escaped into the shadows.
Creatures like the Shadow Assassins who want to escape are really troublesome. When they no longer attack, even Keshid has nothing to do with them.
At this moment, the eldest prince walked up to Richard and saw the shadow assassins running away to death. The serious expression on his face finally relaxed a little.
"Brother-in-law, are your injuries okay? I'll call the doctor over right away."
"No need, I'll just rest for a while."
Richard's trauma has long been restored by the sacred blood bottle. His current weak state is mainly due to the consumption of the God-killing Ring. This negative state cannot be solved by the great prince's skilled doctors. Lose.
"Is it completely done this time?"
"Well, if you are worried, you can burn the body together."
If the other party is the true god, then Richard may still have doubts. After all, his strength is not as strong as the previous two owners of the ring. It may be difficult to deal with the true god, but to deal with a mere divine envoy, it is definitely a sledgehammer. A chicken can split the opponent in half with just one click, so there is no chance of survival.
"Okay, here comes someone!"
With a look from the eldest prince, there were soldiers beside him who quickly found a bucket of hot oil and poured it on the corpse on the ground. Then the eldest prince lit a fire himself, and the fire instantly swallowed the body of the black-robed divine envoy. The black-robed divine envoy who originally died with a decent appearance could not even leave his body intact. The king would probably not give up until he was burned to ashes.
Richard looked at the action of the eldest prince in stunned silence. He had originally said this, but he did not expect that the other party would act so decisively. He even started to burn the corpse on the spot. It can be seen that these shadow assassins and the black-robed angel gave the eldest prince How much pressure it brought.
It would take a while for the corpse to burn out, but the fire was burning a few meters away from the two of them, but neither of them cared much. After confirming that the black-robed divine envoy was dead, the eldest prince shifted his target to those who had just escaped. On a shadow assassin.
"Brother-in-law, the threat from those escaped monsters is not small. What should we do next?"
No wonder the eldest prince is anxious. In Richard's eyes, those escaped shadow assassins are just a group of homeless dogs without any threat, but in the eyes of the eldest prince, they are a group of sharp-toothed lions, which may still threaten his life. .
Of course Richard would not leave a few shadow assassins alone, and quickly gave an answer.
"Just start a city-wide search immediately. I will ask Natalie to lead others to cooperate. If the target is found, they will be entangled. Without the black-robed angel, they will not be able to stay in the Shadow Realm for long."
"That's good!"
"Speed, try to be as fast as possible, otherwise it will be dark and the night will become their best cover."
"Yeah!"
"Pass my order, Clay City will immediately seal the city gates, search for assassins throughout the city, and report clues immediately if you find those shadow monsters! The entire garrison will participate in the operation!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The eldest prince was also cruel. In the city of Clais, which had a huge flow of people and was bustling with trade, he directly issued an order to close the city in order to clean up a few assassins, completely eliminating the last possibility of the other party's escape.
"Your Highness, the Ancora family has been completely controlled. Except for Viscount Ancora who committed suicide, the rest of the family members are being detained by the Iron Guard soldiers."
Although a more critical battle was going on outside, the hundreds of Iron Guard soldiers who rushed into the Ankola family manor were not idle either. The escaped guards and some servants inside did not resist the Iron Guard at all. Possibly, the situation was quickly brought under control.
Viscount Ancora was originally still resisting with several guards on the high tower of the manor, but when he saw the death of the black-robed divine envoy and the shadow assassins fled, he lost all hope after the complete failure of the assassination. He jumped directly from the high platform. He jumped and fell beyond recognition.
"This old dog is cheap."
After hearing the news of Viscount Ancora's suicide, the eldest prince was still angry. He cursed a few words and then ordered to the Iron Guard:
"Confiscate all the property of the Ankola family, count all their manors and land, and send all the guards to the mines for mining. All the men of the Ankola family will be taken into custody and will be taken to Grammar in a few days. Mass executions were carried out in the central district of Rice City, and all the women were sold to the red house."
The eldest prince decided the fate of everyone in the Ankola family with just a few words. The Ankola family, which had enjoyed prosperity for a century, had to pay the price for their greed.
Although the mistake may only be made by the core people, or even Viscount Ancora, in this era, implication is the most basic operation.
Richard did not express any opinion on this. When the Northland army suppressed the nobles in the valley, their methods were not much gentler than that of the eldest prince.
Richard was paying more attention to himself at the moment. After the battle, killing a strong man in the realm brought him a lot of experience. The direct impact was that his level finally increased by one level. , various attributes have been slightly improved, but after taking a closer look, the most important thing to him is still in a gray state.
…
Outside the Dragon Breathing Pass
The orc camp stretches for more than ten miles. Viewed from a high altitude, hundreds of thousands of people are like ants performing their duties during this period, either pushing siege equipment, or preparing troops for war, and constantly launching attacks on Longxing Pass. With impact.
The orcs have been fighting fiercely at this main pass for nearly ten days. A large number of siege equipment has smashed the Dragon Breathing Pass to pieces. The walls of the pass are full of holes and are no longer as smooth as before.
However, although the main pass of Longxing Pass looks dilapidated, in fact the main part is not damaged. Longxing Pass is definitely the strongest pass in this era. It is definitely not something that some trebuchets can destroy, even if the dragon is allowed to do whatever it wants. If you exert yourself, the most you can do is cause some skin trauma to Longxing Pass. To capture Longxing Pass, you have to rely on the method of attacking the city with ants and advance little by little.
Compared with the main gate of Dragon Breathing Pass, which suffered no damage, the defenders on the city suffered heavy losses. Without air superiority, the human defenders could only use human lives to make up for it, and soon, the defenders wanted to use human lives to make up for it. There is no chance of making amends.
The mighty crossbows at Longxingguan have been exhausted. When the orcs attack the city next time, they will not even have any way to deal with the white dragon.
However, today, the orcs did not launch a large-scale attack, either because of the continuous fighting, the orc army was preparing to take a rest, or it was accumulating more threats to attack.
In the orc camp, there is a separate large tent. This tent is located in the central area of the camp, but it is not a handsome tent. However, the people who live in it, even the orc leader, the great shaman, must treat each other with courtesy. .
However, today, there was a noise in the big tent.
"Adrillo! Rune is dead!"
The same elf in black robes found Adelillo with an angry face.
"Oh? What's going on?"
"What's going on? Just now, Rune's soul thread disappeared, and Rune's soul was wiped out."
The envoy of the Lord of Shadows was not only Rune who died in Clais City, but also the people around Adrilo who jointly planned the attack on Longxingguan.
Not many gods survived after Ragnarok. In addition to human gods like the Lord of the Rising Sun, who were not very conspicuous at the beginning, there were also guys like the Lord of Shadows who were extremely good at saving lives.
After the magic power recovered, the Lord of Shadows also woke up from his slumber and sent his own divine envoys to the world. However, for some unknown reason, the divine envoys of the Lord of Shadows and the Lord of the Rising Sun were actually at this moment. Together they formed an alliance.
"What explanation do you want?"
"It was you who said that humans did not have any power that could threaten Rune, so he dared to go directly into the heart of humanity to assassinate high-ranking human figures. With Rune's ability, at least a strong man in the realm of jealousy would be able to stop him. Not even the soul can escape."
Did Aragorn regain his strength or use the God-killing Ring again.
Adrilo quickly ran through several possibilities in his mind, and the information needed to be further verified.
"My information is not 100% accurate, and I can only blame him for his lack of strength."
"You!"
"Do you regard our people from the Shadow God System as a pathfinder?"
"Do you people from the shadow pantheon always have to make excuses for your failures?"
The Shadow God took a deep breath and thought of the requirements in the oracle. He did not turn around and leave immediately, but said to Adriello word by word:
"Tell me all the information about human beings, don't leave anything out, otherwise I will leave immediately."
…
"The Mad Emperor's ring is in a human hand. Why didn't you say something so important in the first place?"
"You haven't asked yourself. Besides, that ring shouldn't have appeared on the Central Plains. Now it seems that Rune must have died under the ring's attack."
"Humph, if it weren't for my Lord's command, I would really want to cut off your head and kick it as a ball."
The black-robed divine envoy, who was obviously angry but was restricted by the oracle and had to cooperate with the other party, could only say a harsh word and left the camp.
"These stinky rats living in the sewers really exude a disgusting smell."
"However, all for the great Lord of the Rising Sun."
