Chapter 661 The price of
"The traces are a little shallow, but there are indeed residues." Nierosta said after looking at it.
If you follow the clues, there is already a mark. If you continue to search, you can easily find more traces. Putting away their chatter, the three of them accelerated their pursuit.
As the traces are followed, the traces gradually become more obvious. Even without looking at the marks guided by the traces of living beings, the naked eye can easily see some obvious traces left by people passing by.
As the pace quickened, Adore gradually became unable to hold on, so he left it to Nyerosta to carry him.
On the brow of the moon, what appeared in front of everyone was a small mountain village. Compared with the previous village, which was still at the foot of the mountain, this small village in the deep mountains and old forests was undoubtedly more isolated and backward.
The moonlight shone down, and the village was silent. Only the outlines of simple houses emerged in the darkness.
Nierosta released a trace of life again, and the trace that appeared this time surprised Nierosta.
"Too much!"
This is a small village, a gathering place of people, so it is normal for there to be many traces. But as long as you identify more footprints, it is not difficult to distinguish which ones are the tracking targets and which ones are ordinary villagers.
Even if you don't look at the villagers, there are still many traces of the remaining wizards!
When I was tracking before, I thought there were only a few scattered traces, but now when I look closely at these clear traces, I can see that this is a large team!
"Oh ho, if something happens later, you two should be careful not to be targeted by multiple enemies." Sand Dune made a funny voice, and his reminder made Adore and Nierosta feel heavy.
Suddenly, a burst of black dust blew back with the wind.
Nierosta's expression changed: "Counter tracking! We have been exposed!"
"So I'm not good at academics." Sha Qiu said with a smile on his face.
Then he was slapped back by Sha Qiu: "Don't cosplay weird things on my face."
Noisy Monster:?
The next moment, the black wind roared, and a figure wearing a worn-out knight's light armor came riding the wind. His body turned in mid-air, and the charred blade with sparks remaining in his hand brought an unpleasant smell. The target was Nierosta's. Neck!
Ding!
There was a crisp collision, and Nierosta broke out in cold sweat. A thin bamboo placed in front of his neck saved his life.
The knight made another agile leap and distanced himself, his eyes under the helmet carefully watching the sand dunes.
Immediately afterwards, a loud ringing sound suddenly came from somewhere.
On a slope in the distance, another knight rang the bell in his hand directly at the village. The tranquility of the entire village was completely broken, and a commotion broke out.
"That knight's armor comes from the Kingdom of Night Country! I saw it at an antique exhibition in Risheng!" Adore suddenly said.
"Antiques? It certainly seems so. These antiques are all engraved with incantations..." Nierosta looked solemn.
"Another despicable Yexiang person?" Sha Qiu intertwined the fingers of his hands flexibly. To those who didn't know the truth, it looked like he was waving his hands in a critical moment.
These people had no reaction to Adore's identification of them. More and more knights walked out of the houses in the village, and there were longing figures in the distance.
"Don't be surrounded."
After saying that, the ground in front of the dune suddenly bulged and broke open, and thick vines grew and surged directly forward.
For the first time since coming to this boundary time and space, Wanyi Dune finally returned to the style of the original Dune.
The Knights of Night Village were also a little shocked by such a huge impact of vines, but they quickly reacted. A low spell was heard. They took out the beast's blood clot from their waist pockets and wiped it on the blade.
The blade ignited an unknown fire and faced the impact of the vines!
Bang!
The knight who launched the attack early in the morning was directly run over, but the blade penetrated the vines, and the cursed fire spread on the vines.
The subsequent knights also charged one by one.
Sand Dune originally thought that this attack would at least frighten these people for a while, but unexpectedly it had little effect. After the vines jumped for a while, they lost their activity under the burning of the curse fire and fell down weakly. Plants that are not specialized in fire resistance are still relatively vulnerable to flames.
The knights were strong and strong, and there were not many casualties.
In fact, several knights who were hit by vines and flew out without a sound were helped up by their teammates and took out a tube of turbid blood. A crude needle was inserted into the flesh through the gap in the armor and injected roughly.
Those knights whose body bones should have been shattered actually stood up again.
"The remnants of the old emperor, the real remnants of the old emperor in Yexiang." The supervisor reminded Shaqiu in his mind.
The detailed identity of the other party combined with various intelligences has been revealed.
These people are fake vampires!
It is true that there are a lot of subspecies of vampires in this world so far, but it is not surprising. After all, due to some accidents, a group of sinister witchcraft creatures have secretly threatened the world for thousands of years. Such a long time span, out of For various purposes, various accessories will naturally extend from the main body of the vampire family.
Pseudo-vampires are almost as cheap as the half-vampires created by the vampires from the Night Country.
But in the eyes of the supervisor, it does have certain advantages.
Under normal circumstances, these people are relatively strong adults, and may not even be close to the limit of human beings. They rely on the spells on the armor and other witchcraft to achieve extraordinary effects.
But when necessary, they can transform an ordinary body into a vampire by injecting a sufficient amount of foreign blood in a short period of time.
Not to mention anything else, just the regeneration ability of a vampire, as long as it is possessed for a moment, all fatal injuries to a weak human body will be trivial.
Then with the consumption of foreign blood, their vampire characteristics will gradually be consumed and returned to human levels.
A very good dynamic balance.
Red never mentioned this particular subspecies of vampire.
Combined with the half-vampire identity of the old emperor of Yexiang, this is most likely something that the old emperor researched!
Unlike the half-baked cursed wizards I met on Nemesis Street before, this group of real remnants of the old Night Village old emperor are not that simple.
These Knights of the Night Country do not have the strict discipline of the Rising Sun Army of the Rising Sun Kingdom, nor do they have any special witchcraft linkage, but their individual strength is more powerful.
You can see the thinking of the person who created this kind of wizard: a wizard army purely designed to kill and take lives!
"Interesting, this atmosphere where everyone is racking their brains and dancing in shackles under a large frame is really full of unique charm." Sand Dune whispered, talking to himself as he faced the three knights who were killing him. , with a wave of his hand, a big red thing directly swept away the enemies in front of him.
They were like baseballs hit by home runs, flying high into the sky and becoming stars in the night, disappearing without a trace.
Carrot and stick.
Although the term that refers to "giving both kindness and power" is called "carrot and stick", the thing in Dune's hand is just a "carrot and stick" and has nothing to do with "giving both kindness and power".
If we really had to use a certain term to refer to this weapon, it would be a "sugar-coated cannonball."
Because although this carrot and stick looks cute, it has a single function and will only blow other people's heads off.
The thin section is very light, while the large end is extremely heavy.
Although these cursed fires are difficult to control, Shaqiu has already seen the unquenchable flames that the Sunrise King purely extends from his will. These things are far inferior to the Sunrise King.
The watery carrots and sticks smashed these knights into pieces. As long as the person is smashed to pieces, no amount of blood injection can save a fragile life. There is a gap between pseudo-vampires and real vampires after all.
While the killing spree was going on in the dunes, Nierosta, who had tried his best to hide his presence, was still targeted by two Night Country knights.
Throwing Adore behind him, Nierosta took out the Night Country Knight's Curse Knife that he had just picked up, and in the other hand was the standard dagger of the Rising Sun Army!
Two weapons, one black and one gold, came together unexpectedly in Nierosta's hands.
Directly using the cursed knife to make a cut on his arm, which was stained with blood, Nierosta mobilized the cursed fire according to the script, and quickly swung it to fend off the attacks of the two knights.
After forcing them back, he made a whimsical decision.
He recited the incantation of the Rising Sun Dagger again, and then crossed the two weapons together!
Whether it is the sword energy of the short sword that inspires witchcraft or the blood-drinking curse of the cursed knife, it is not something profound.
Nirosta didn't understand it at all, but the foundation was indeed solid, and the witchcraft associated with these two weapons was still within the basic range!
He combined the two spells, and soon golden sparks floated from the cursed fire.
Success!
He was overjoyed, but soon felt the two knives begin to absorb a lot of his energy!
Well, not quite. There is still a conflict. Although the two are forcibly combined, the processing is still rough, which requires greater consumption to maintain.
Nierosta gritted his teeth: "Fight!"
Swords danced wildly, flames floated wildly, and between the light and shadow of swords, Nierosta's body was driven forward, and he fiercely attacked the two knights in front. The two weapons each have their own characteristics, making Nyerosta look like a black swordsman in a light novel who is good at drawing light.
The sword energy with cursed fire flew around in an area.
The two knights had never seen anything like this before, so they had no choice but to fight it off.
Although Nierosta's movements were full of loopholes, his speed and strength were beyond imagination due to the out-of-control blessing of the two weapons.
However, they could also see that Nierosta was just holding on, and this rough combination could not last forever!
However, the knights ignored that their skills might still be able to withstand it, but under the continuous fierce collisions, their cursed knives were already in danger when faced with more advanced cursed witchcraft.
Finally, Nierosta's cursed knife and dagger swung out a cross slash. The knight who continued to defend felt a light touch in his hand, and the two cursed knives were shattered and turned into ashes on the spot!
Step forward again and slash with the cursed sword!
Two heads soared into the sky.
Nierosta struggled to win with a momentary flash of inspiration. However, after this strike, he suddenly felt like he couldn't breathe, and his limbs went limp and fell to the ground. As Adore shouted, everything gradually faded away, and he was sucked into unconsciousness by the out-of-control witchcraft he created temporarily.
Sure enough, I am the real deal.
This was his last thought before he passed out.
