I'm a dragon, I only want to steal princesses

153 Death Knight
The kingdom of death, on the outskirts of Red Moon City.

Thick black clouds obscured the light of the sky, and heavy rain poured down.

A group of knights escorted a carriage dragging a sarcophagus through the canyon at high speed.

The icy rain soaked the knights' black cloaks, flowed over the knights' foreheads, and finally flowed into their dark and hollow eye sockets-they had no eyeballs.

Under the black cloaks, the faces of the knights did not have a trace of flesh and blood, they were all pale skeletons, and there were only two dark green ghost lights flickering in the eye sockets originally occupied by the eyeballs.

Death knight, a high-level undead creature made by necromancers that can retain the memory of life and part of the personality.

"Hurry up! Hurry up!" The leading knight urged loudly. In fact, without flesh and blood, they can't really make a sound like a living person, but they can directly transmit their thoughts to conscious individuals through the echo of their souls .

Occasionally, lightning flashed across the clouds, like a match briefly lighting up the front, and the knights saw a dark crowd gathered at the valley's mouth.

There is an ambush!
"Come on! Don't stop, go out!!" The death knight headed by took up the spear.

There are still pursuers behind them. If they are caught in an ambush here, they will be double-teamed. The only chance is to break out of the encirclement immediately.

Under the cover of the heavy rain curtain, the two sides could barely recognize each other's outline.

A rain of arrows pierced through the rain curtain, and the sound of the rain covered the sound of the bowstring. It was not until the rain of arrows was in front of them that the death knights realized that the other party had fired a wave of arrows.

But this attack was not painful to them at all. They let the arrows pierce the cloak, pierced the gaps in the armor and even their eye sockets, and some arrows shot their mounts.

However, the mounts of the death knights are also skeleton horses without flesh and blood, and the arrows pass through the empty skeletons of these undead creatures.

The sarcophagus transported on the carriage was very thick, and the arrows fell on it, making a clanging sound.

The leading death knight took the lead and drove his mount to leap forward in front of the horse-rejecting fence. The skeleton warhorse actually jumped more than two meters high, crossed the barrier of the repelling horse, and knocked down several people who were hiding behind the bunker and holding big horses. Shield soldier.

The spear in the death knight's hand was entwined with a chill, and it flashed coldly in the rain.

As soon as the spear entered and exited, there was a scream immediately.

Blood spurted out, and the stabbed soldier fell down, his body quickly weakening under the influence of the cold air.

Another death knight wielded a huge mace, smashed the refusal horse through the gap, and led the carriage and the remaining knights into the enemy formation.

The people ambushing here obviously didn't expect that what they wanted to stop was a group of death knights. The death knights were like a sharp hatchet, cutting into the ambush queue like a sharp hatchet.

However, the enemy still quickly surrounded them by virtue of their numbers, and the death knight's progress gradually slowed down.

At this time, some of the soldiers killed by the death knight twitched and climbed up again. Under the effect of the necromancy injected by the death knight, these people were transformed into zombies the moment they died, and began to attack other creatures uncontrollably.

The appearance of the zombies plunged the encirclement into chaos for a moment. The death knight rushed forward again, and the leading knight swung his spear again, piercing a soldier's face.

Can kill it!

Just as he had this thought, a dazzling light erupted before his eyes without warning.

At this moment, the death knights who lost their flesh and blood actually felt the pain of being burned under the light.

The light-forged Holy Sword of Judgment swirled straight towards it, and the leading knight sensed the danger and dodged subconsciously.

The holy sword hit another death knight guarding the carriage sarcophagus at the rear, split his cloak and light armor, and chopped off the skull of the knight with only skeletons.

For undead creatures, body damage is nothing at all. Their bodies are dead objects without vital signs. Even if their heads are cut off, it is enough to pick them up and put them back on.

But after the head burning with skyfire fell, the gloomy light in his eyes also went out. The power of the holy light dispelled the necromancy of this body, and the body of the death knight left on the horse fell apart on the spot.

"Paladin?" The leading death knight was taken aback. If he could still breathe now, he would definitely gasp now.

The attack just now obviously came from a certain paladin, and it must be above the level of a master.

The enemy array in front suddenly parted, and distanced themselves from them to prevent more people from being transformed into zombies.

The surroundings of the death knights suddenly became empty, but instead of taking the opportunity to speed up, they stopped abruptly.

A row of knights appeared right in front of them, their rune armor glowing golden, and there were twice as many paladins as them.

The formation looked impossible—by their words alone.

The paladins charged at them.

"Block them!" The leading death knight ordered a team behind to rush forward to delay the time, while he turned back and retreated to the sarcophagus escorted by the carriage.

"Wake up, Your Highness Anne Luo Jie! We can't resist it!" The death knight desperately called the person in the sarcophagus with the echo of his soul.

The sarcophagus remained silent, without any movement.

Another death knight in front was knocked off his horse by the Holy Shield, and his body was immediately pierced by the Holy Sword of Judgment.

"His Royal Highness Anne Luo Jie!?" The death knight shouted, "Damn it!!"

He cursed, then started to pry open the sarcophagus with his spear, and turned to call out to the death knight holding a mace: "Gru! Let's wake up Your Highness!"

The death knight named Gru was about to join the battle ahead, but when he heard the commander's call, he immediately turned around and rushed back.

Gru jumped into the carriage, and the death knight who was in command had already pried off the coffin lid.

Gru opened the heavy coffin lid with force, and inside the sarcophagus lay a girl like a porcelain doll, with long silver hair, pale skin, and wearing an exquisite black dress.

The moment the sarcophagus was opened, the pouring rain immediately soaked the girl's face, hair and clothes.

But the girl still closed her eyes tightly, like a corpse.

In fact, she wasn't even breathing.

"How does this wake up?" Gru asked his officer.

"Throw her directly!!" The leading death knight shouted, pointing at the paladins who were causing the death knights to retreat.

This rebellious order made Gru stunned for a moment, but he didn't raise any doubts, and immediately followed it.

He picked up the sleeping girl in the sarcophagus like a chicken, and then threw her out with all his strength.

The girl's body crossed a parabola and slammed into the paladin. The sudden throw caught the paladin a little off guard. He subconsciously raised his shield to resist, and a light-forged holy shield appeared on the surface of the shield.

The girl's body hit the holy shield, and the holy shield suddenly emitted a light of rejection.

"It's so hot!" The sleeping girl suddenly opened her eyes and screamed, then fell into the muddy water.
