Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

Chapter 172

Burrett left the church with a heavy heart.

It is impossible to defend. There are more than a dozen epic wizards in the Truth Society, and there are only seven epic wizards in the capital including High Priest Lysa.

These epics still have their own ghosts, don't think about it, the three epics from the royal family will definitely run away.

"Hey, has the empire fallen to this point?"

Burrett sighed and returned to the carriage. Before the horses could run, a knight galloped over on his horse.

The knight shouted loudly: "Earl Burrett, there is a change outside the city, and the black wizards have begun to gather around the city wall."

Burrett's face changed, he forced himself to calm down, and quickly ordered to the knight: "Go and inform the church and the major wizard towers, and let them send priests and wizards to support them, as many as they can come."

After finishing speaking, the man urged the knights in front to drive the carriage and run towards the city wall.

Ten minutes later, the carriage came galloping. Burrett got out of the carriage and hurriedly summoned the knights to climb up the city wall.

Looking outside the city, hundreds of black wizards gathered towards the city wall with strange eyes. The distorted parts of their bodies were beating and emitting red light, like some kind of evil sacrificial blood marks.

Burrett looked solemnly, and when the knights arrived, he commanded: "Fire the arrow."

The muscles in the hands of the surrounding knights twitched, the bowstring was tightened, and the arrow feathers shot out quickly.

Arrow feathers fell all over the sky, and the black wizard looked up indifferently.

In the group of black wizards, an old wizard raised his staff and launched a witchcraft.

A large amount of black mist emerged from the other wizards, and then filled the sky above the crowd. The arrow feathers lost their kinetic energy and fell to the ground as if they were thrown into a quagmire.

Seeing this, Burrett looked at the knight next to him, "Have those wizards come?"

The knight quickly responded: "Two epic wizards have rushed over."

"At the church, High Priest Lysa is also on the way with the saint."

Burrett nodded, and continued to watch the action of the dark wizard below.

What he didn't expect was that after the group of black wizards were attacked, they retreated back to the wild forest.

Before he could figure it out, some chaotic footsteps sounded in the night, and he saw dense red lights shining slightly at the end of his vision.

Burrett was stunned for a moment, then his face changed drastically.

He discovered that those dense red lights were all distorted dark creatures!

Although he didn't know how the dark wizard was able to drive the dark creatures, it was obvious that he had no time to think about it.

Burrett anxiously gave the knights an attack order, and then looked back at the knights he brought from the earldom.

"All knights, use the rune equipment freely!"

Burrett's voice sounded, the knights nodded and showed their gauntlets.

In fact, these knights are not witch knights, and their level of meditation can't even reach the level of apprentices.

But the rune equipment on them is loaded with some very simple three-rune witchcraft, even ordinary knights can barely drive it.

The power of a three-rune witchcraft may be a little weak, but if it is released by the entire Cavaliers team, the quantitative change will lead to a qualitative change, and even a small three-rune witchcraft may exert completely different power.

Under the city wall, the roar of the dark creature got closer, and the black mist filled the air.

Feathered arrows shot continuously. Under the action of the knight's great strength, the power of each arrow was astonishingly terrifying. Every second, several dark creatures would be connected in series with the feathered arrows, and the dark creatures fell down like harvested wheat. go.

A few minutes after the battle started, more than a few hundred dark creatures had been killed or injured. This number seemed a lot, but it was insignificant in the vast beast horde.

Looking from a distance, the flickering red light can't see the end.

Fortunately in misfortune, these dark creatures seem to come from the surrounding wilderness or the border of the dark land, not from the depths of the dark land.

You must know that the dark creatures in the border are much more terrifying than the dark creatures in the empire, and even epic creatures will appear.

He wasn't afraid of just one or two epic creatures, but if there were hundreds or thousands of them, they wouldn't even be able to resist.

"Roar!!"

The beast horde quickly rushed under the city wall like a tide, and the black mist filled the air, covering the starry sky.

At this time, the knights behind Burrett were also ready.

Under the inexplicable eyes of some knights, the gauntlets on the hands of these knights from the Earl of Coutts shimmered, and clusters of purple fireballs sprayed out towards the city wall.

boom!
The densely packed purple fireballs smashed into the beast tide, and exploded violently in an instant.

The dark creature roared and rolled all over the ground, emitting a burning smell from its body.

A few minutes later, thousands of corpses of dark creatures were left under the city wall, and the dark creatures stepped on these corpses and continued to climb towards the city wall.

When Burrett looked back, the faces of the knights turned pale. It was obvious that their spirits had reached their peak.

Seeing this, he waved his hand and shouted: "Give the rune gauntlet to the knight next to you, hurry up."

The knights of Coutts were taken aback, and they took off the rune gauntlets and put them on the hands of the bewildered knights.

Seeing that they were still in a daze, Burrett urged loudly: "Trigger with mental power."

When the knights heard the shout, they came back to their senses, poured their spirits into it, and countless purple fireballs fell down. Some dark creatures were already wrapped in a ball of flames before they could climb up, and fell with a scream. Into the beast tide, also ignited other dark creatures.

For a while, the beast tide was extremely chaotic, and the knights finally got a chance to breathe.

It's just that Burrett's face was serious, and he didn't relax at all.

He knew that this situation lasted for a short time, and those knights had already exhausted their mental power after releasing a round of witchcraft. If this continued, sooner or later, all the knights would be unable to touch the rune equipment.

But besides using rune equipment, he has no other way to deal with it. He can only urge the knights to hand over the rune gauntlets to knights who have not used witchcraft, and let them trigger the rune gauntlets.

Every now and then, there will be knights who climb up the city wall, release purple fireballs, and then retreat after exhausting their mental power.

The knights took turns, and the situation improved a lot.

This situation lasted for more than ten minutes, and the wizards and priests of the capital finally rushed over.

The two epic wizards who rushed over were named Emeka Ezugo and Dino Gavrich, and they were both well-known figures in the capital.

Behind them, Isabel supported High Priest Lysa to climb the city wall.

The two wizards didn't talk nonsense after climbing the city wall, and directly raised their staffs in their hands facing the beast tide.

Deng!
White light shone from the city wall, and in an instant the light resounded throughout the battlefield, and also illuminated the dark wizard hidden in the forest.

In the next second, a hole seemed to be broken in the sky, and a gust of wind smashed down from midair.

Buzz! !

The gust of wind was like a sharp blade, and a black bear instantly scattered into a blood mist.

The wind blade was bloodthirsty, and the beast horde was routed in an instant, revealing a bloody clearing in the middle of the battlefield.

After seeing this scene, Burrett couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Beside Burrett, Isabel also stepped forward.

She clasped her hands together, and the golden crown on her head was shining brightly.

The girl's gaze was fixed, and she raised the ball of light in her hand above her head, then she let go of her hands, and the ball of light floated away into the wild forest.

call out!
A beam of light shot out from the ball of light, and there was a loud bang, all the dark creatures along the way were turned into coke, and a hole was peared out of the ground.

The light cluster is like a floating cannon, under the control of Isabel's mind, it harvests the dark creatures on the field.

Then the light group got closer and closer to the wild forest, and a ray of light shot through it.

Zizizi!
The black mist rose and blocked the beam of light.

Isabel was stunned for a moment. Under her gaze, the black mist surged and swallowed the light ball directly.

It's just that these black wizards didn't fight back after being attacked. After looking at the city wall, they retreated into the dense forest.

Everyone was stunned when they saw this, and suddenly there was another galloping sound. Everyone looked into the darkness, and the dense beast horde appeared again, and the number was even greater than before.

Burrett's expression was not good, "Damn it, why did this group of dark wizards suddenly have the ability to control dark creatures."

The epic wizard named Emeka took a look at him, and waved his staff to release the witchcraft again, "In any case, let's deal with the beast tide first, otherwise we will all be trapped in the capital."

"These beast hordes have already surrounded the entire capital, and there are still dark wizards watching..."

Having said that, Emeka shook his head and didn't continue talking, but it was obvious that he was not optimistic about the situation.

At this time, High Priest Lysa said, "Earl Burrett, let the knights go down to rest first, we are here."

Burrett nodded heavily, and directed the knight to go down.

The beast horde continued to hit, and the battle continued. Several epics took turns releasing witchcraft on the city wall to kill dark creatures.

Until dawn, the beast tide finally receded.

Just when everyone was about to take a breath, a black horde of beasts suddenly appeared in the sky.

Isabel and the others could only cheer up and continue to welcome the beast tide.

A day passed, and the beast tide gradually subsided, and there was no sign of continuing to appear, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But in the early morning of the next day, the beast tide swept in again, and there were many more epic creatures in it.

"Damn it!" Burrett's eyes were red, "This group of dark wizards obviously want to consume us alive."

As he said that, he asked the knight next to him, "Has the royal family responded? Why haven't you come for reinforcements?"

The knight hesitated and said, "The knights of the royal family said that they have more important tasks to perform, so let me go back and wait for news."

When Burrett heard this, he couldn't help but swear: "Damn it, William Stelman, I'll take your head off and kick it like a ball."

The wizard who was resting on the side opened his eyes and closed his eyes when he heard Burrett's words, and did not object.

After his anger passed, Burrett began to think.

Those dark creatures have signs of distortion, and the dark wizards should control those dark creatures through distortion.

However, these dark creatures should all come from the nearby forests and the border of the Dark Land, and they certainly dare not go into the depths of the Dark Land to spread the distortion plague.

That is to say, when the beast tide is almost exhausted, it will definitely subside in a few days, and then it will be a good time to break through.

Burrett sighed, and looked at High Priest Lysa and the other epics.

"Everyone, the royal family is planning to escape, we can't stay here and wait for death."

"After the beast tide decreases, let's break out."

Everyone nodded, but did not speak.

After Isabel listened silently, she looked at the turbulent beast tide outside the city wall, then squatted next to High Priest Lysa, and closed her eyes wearily.

Lysa stroked her golden hair and said softly, "Isabel, what's the matter, we will get out successfully."

"Hmm..." Isabel shook her head, her heart inexplicably depressed, "I just feel empty inside."

The old man smiled and said, "Are you expecting Narende to come?"

Isabel nodded, then shook her head immediately, "No, I will find him myself. I promised him that I would go to Count Coutts to find him."

……

field.

The beast tide rushed past, and the grass beside the road moved.

Chu Ming and Edel hid behind the dark wizard's base camp and observed.

In fact, they had already arrived near the capital half a day ago, but because the beast horde surrounded the capital, they couldn't get in for the time being, so they hid here.

"Ah sneeze!"

Chu Ming couldn't help but sneezed. After hearing the sound, the dark creatures around him didn't respond and ran towards the capital as usual.

"Why did you sneeze all of a sudden?"

Chu Ming rubbed his nose, looking strange.

Beside him, Edel looked nervous, "You scare me to death."

"Now that the beast horde has surrounded the capital, how are we going to get there now?"

Chu Ming couldn't help but glanced at him, "Who said we're going in."

"Ah?" Edel asked in a low voice with a blank face, "If we don't go in, what else can we do?"

There was a strange gleam in Chu Ming's eyes, "Of course they sneaked into the hometown of these dark wizards and killed the guy who controlled the beast tide."

"With Isabel and the others in the capital, they should last for a while, so don't worry about it."

"Is it too risky?" Edel's face was solemn, "There are more than a dozen epic wizards inside."

Chu Ming sighed and said, "Because of this, the black wizard must never have thought that someone would dare to attack them."

"Be a little more obscene, maybe you can get it right with one blow."

"At that time, we will run in the direction of the capital, and don't look back."

As he spoke, Chu Ming took out the crystal staff that had been preserved for a long time.

Edel swallowed hard, gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two silently observed the dark wizard's base camp in the pothole hiding in the grass.

From a distance, the black mist floating in the black wizard camp seems to be the witchcraft released by an epic wizard.

The camp was covered by black mist, and the two couldn't see clearly what was going on inside. They could only faintly see a burst of blood flickering.

Chu Ming touched his chin, "The black mist should be used to prevent attacks, and the blood light should be the key to their ability to control the deformed dark creatures."

"Even if it's not, the witchcraft that lasts for such a long time should be some kind of secret."

"You have to observe more, so as not to miss it."

……

Soon, two days passed.

The scale of the beast horde has shrunk significantly, and it is no longer as terrifying as it was a few days ago.

But at this time, bad news also came from the capital.

A wizard hurried up the city wall and came to Dino, another epic wizard. He shouted anxiously: "The teacher is not good, the palace is empty, the nobles and the royal knights are gone."

"what?!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words.

Burrett hurriedly asked: "The four gates of the city have not been opened, where did they leave from?"

The wizard hurriedly said: "In the early hours of this morning, someone heard an explosion in the palace. My student, I followed the others to check it out."

"There are no living figures in the palace, and the ground is full of corpses of servants."

"And the sound of the explosion came from a side hall. When we arrived, the side hall had already collapsed."

When Burrett heard the words, he immediately thought of it, with an angry look on his face, "William Stelman and the others have already escaped through the secret passage."

"Not only that, but also blown up the secret passage, cut off our retreat, and wanted us to stall for time here."

When everyone heard the words, they opened their mouths, not knowing what to say, their eyes dimmed.

Burrett clenched his fists, glanced at everyone, and said, "Get ready to break out."

"If I can survive, I must arrest and beat up the Stelman family."

After finishing speaking, the man comforted everyone, then looked at the beast tide outside the city wall, and sighed secretly.

It is not easy to break out of the siege of more than a dozen epic wizards. Even if the breakout is successful, it is unknown how many people will die because of it.

But if you don't break through, you can only wait for death in vain here.

"Everyone, let's recover first. While the beast tide is decreasing, let's break out in the direction of the north gate."

Everyone nodded, and began to save their physical and mental strength, preparing for the final resistance.

……

field.

At this time, it was just dawn, and Chu Ming and Edel were getting closer to the camp of the black wizard.

Edel asked in a low voice, "Why do I feel like these wizards are walking out?"

Chu Ming was taken aback, and he looked in the direction Edel was looking at. Indeed, seven epic wizards had left the camp, hidden among the beasts, and walked towards the city wall.

Seeing this, Edel couldn't help but said, "These guys don't want to make a sneak attack, do they?"

"This is a good opportunity, Edel prepares."

With a thought, Chu Ming took out the crystal staff.

Energy surged inside the crystal staff, obviously already full of energy.

However, the staff cracked after using the crystal reinforcement once, and he estimated that it would be completely useless after a few more uses.

But this is not the time to save. Of the twelve epic wizards in the black wizard camp, seven went out, but there are still five in the camp. If you want to destroy under their protection, you have to play all your cards.

"Our position is too far away, follow me."

Chu Ming put away his staff, waved to Edel, and gradually moved towards the path.

At this time, three black wizards passed by holding a large box.

Seeing that there was no one else nearby, he extended his right hand to the three of them.

Evil thoughts attack!

This is the ten-run sorcery of the nightmare category in the full category set, similar to spiritual attack.

After the witchcraft was released, a wave of manic malice instantly surrounded the three of them.

The black wizard's face became distorted, and he dropped the box one after another, covering his head, and let out an inhuman scream.

But nearby dark creatures rushed past, quickly covering up the voices of the three of them.

When Edel got out of the grass and pulled the three of them back, he saw that the three of them had their eyes wide open, their seven orifices were bleeding, their faces were in pain, and their death was very miserable.

Edel's heart beat a little. While pulling off the black wizard's robe, he carefully asked, "Narend, when did you become so... powerful in witchcraft?"

Chu Ming glanced at him and put on the black robe, "Edel, I remember you still have a lot of space for mental load, remember to learn it when you go back."

Edel nodded embarrassingly, put on the black robe, and walked out of the grass with Chu Ming with his head down, then picked up the box and headed towards the camp.

"What is so heavy?"

Chu Ming frowned slightly, the witchcraft was activated, and two tree vines came out of his sleeves to help him support the box.

Hearing this, Edel was also a little curious. He gently crushed a corner of the wooden crate with his fingers, revealing the contents inside.

In the gap of the wooden crate, a faint light lit up, the two of them were stunned for a moment, then their eyes widened.
