Chapter 171 The southern border fell and the royal capital was trapped(1/3)

Author: The fog dissipates

Half a month has passed in a hurry, and the development of the Dark Land has entered a white-hot stage. Almost every day, five or six epic creatures will die in their hands.

Everywhere they passed was scorched earth, the black fog became thinner, and the sunlight was able to shine into the forest.

In order to prevent the fleeing dark creatures from forming a tide to attack the Eagle Horn territory, the witch knights at the border have already made preparations and will kill more than a hundred dark creatures that attack the border every day.

After the eradication, there are actually not many ordinary creatures left. Most of the remaining dark creatures are epic creatures, which are hard to crack and require a lot of time.

Chu Ming and the others first started from the area deep in the dark forest, close to the Tianqi Mountains, and finally gradually cleared an isolation zone, completely isolating the dark land they wanted to explore.

In this way, there will be no dark creatures emerging from the depths.



In the forest, a burning smell came. Chu Ming and others worked together to kill the three epic creatures and sat on the ground to rest for a while.

Edel rummaged through the bag and seemed to find something. He said to Chu Ming: "Narende, our dry food has been exhausted. It's time to return to the camp to replenish supplies."

Chu Ming nodded and stood up, "Then let's go back first. According to the current progress, this area will not need a month to be cleared. Let's go back for a few days to rectify it, and try to clear out the entire darkness next time.

Burn the forest clean."

After saying that, he made a casual move, and the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine rose from the ground, and he stepped onto the Dragon Vine's body.

Everyone nodded, packed up their things, and walked up.

The dragon vine swam, overwhelming the black tree, and walked out of the forest.

A few hours later, the dark fog gradually thinned and the sunlight gradually shone in. This relaxed the minds of several people who were tensed in the dark environment and relaxed their brows.

After a while, the camp appeared in front of everyone, and the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine swam out from the vigilant eyes of the knights.

"It's Sir Narender, Master Edel, and all the other gentlemen!"

The knights were stunned for a moment, with excited expressions on their faces.

The witchcraft was cancelled, the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine gradually disappeared, and everyone fell to the ground.

Edel smiled at a knight and asked: "Sauron, nothing happened in the territory during my absence."

The knight named Sauron nodded, but soon there was a trace of hesitation on his face, "With the wizard and the witch knight here, several attempts by the dark wizard have been repelled, and the territory is safe and sound."

"But there is bad news coming from the southern border..."

With that said, the knight put a letter into Edel's hand.

"My lord, the earl, asked me to give this to you. Your lord has already set off for the royal capital a few days ago."

Hearing this, Edel felt an ominous premonition in his heart. He unfolded the letter and read it in front of Chu Ming and others.

"Dear Edel, when you read this letter, I should be on my way to the royal capital."

"A few days ago, bad news came from the royal capital. The aberrant plague spread by the black wizard in the southern territory has mutated and can actually infect some weaker knights."

"At the same time, the Truth Society is frantically attacking towns in the south. I'm afraid the south really won't be able to hold on this time."

"This news was a month ago, and it only came here in the past few days. The situation in the southern border may be worse than I thought."

"I will set off tonight to lead the knights to the royal capital for support. Edel, please guard the territory and wait for me to come back. I hope everything is fine."

"Put pen to paper, Brett Coutts."

After reading the letter, Edel's expression changed and he stood blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

But Chu Ming just glanced at him, took a deep breath, and said: "Edel, I think I have to go to the royal capital."

"Isabel is still there in the royal capital. I'm not worried. I want to go there and see for myself."

Edel held the letter and raised his head suddenly, struggling internally.

Seeming to see Edel's inner hesitation, Chu Ming said: "The territory has grown, and the cleanup of the Dark Land will soon be over. I don't think you need to worry."

As he said that, Chu Ming turned to look at Allen and the other two, "I'll leave it to you guys on the territory, and the development of the Dark Land."

Allen nodded cautiously, "Don't worry, Narend, leave the territory to us."

Chu Ming exhaled slowly, ignored Edel, mounted his horse and ran towards the wizard's cabin.

Although he seems to be calm on the surface now, in fact, when he thinks about Isabel's situation, he will feel uneasy inside.

After quickly running back from the border, Chu Ming returned to the laboratory and saw Pearly standing on the shelf.

Chu Ming took a breath, quickly took off the copper scroll, opened the letter and read it again.

"Dear Mr. Wizard, are you doing something very powerful again today?"

"Let me tell you a little secret. In fact, I have broken through the epic. How about I am also very powerful?"

"When I see bad people in the future, I will punch them one by one. No one is allowed to hurt you, hehe."

"Everything is fine with Isabel in the royal capital now. Don't worry about her. Maybe I will go find you soon."

"Put pen to paper, Isabel."

When he saw Isabel breaking through the epic level, Chu Ming couldn't help but smile on his face, but the more he looked behind, the more solemn his expression became.

Isabel does not have real freedom in the church. At least if she comes to the earldom to find him, she will basically be rejected.

If Isabel can really come to the Earl of Kutz to find him, it means that the situation in the south is really not optimistic, and maybe even the Life Church is starting to plan to move away from the royal capital.

When he thought of this, Chu Ming felt a little anxious. He quickly brought the necessary items and walked out in a hurry.

As soon as he opened the door, he suddenly saw Edel standing outside, seemingly waiting for him.

Edel said: "My father is going to the royal capital like this. I'm worried. Let's go there together."

Chu Ming just nodded and said nothing.

He waved his hand forward, and the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine burst out of the ground, quietly overlooking the two of them.

"Let's go."

Chu Ming and Edel climbed onto the back of the Demonic Skeleton Dragon Vine.

The dragon vine roared and climbed up the mountain.

Ten minutes later, the two of them climbed over the mountains and looked south. After that, Longteng continued to move forward.



late at night.

In the Royal Capital Life Church, bursts of painful wails came from inside.

On the ground, the knights were covered with aberrant tissue and were unable to move.

Ever since the knights from the royal capital went out to support the southern earldom and were defeated, they came back looking like this.

The priests were busy running among the patients. As bursts of light lit up, the pain on the knight's face eased a lot, but the abnormal tissue on his body still did not change at all.

Among the patients, Isabel's hands glowed with dazzling light. Unlike the knight, the aberrant tissue on this patient's body was fading away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then turned into a pool of pus and flowed out.

The patient's ugly face relaxed and he fell into a deep sleep tiredly.

Isabel wiped her sweat and was about to take a rest when the knights beside her started wailing.

"Lord Saint, please save me."

"help me……"

The girl looked at the wailing knights around her, feeling a little at a loss.

In fact, she had been overloading her magic for several days in a row, and her spirit had already reached its limit. However, there were too many aberration patients, and she was simply too busy.

Just when the girl didn't know what to do, Maria came over expressionlessly and pulled her out.

"Isabelle, you should rest."

"But……"

Looking at those people who were wailing, a trace of unbearability flashed in her eyes.

She knew that if these people did not receive treatment tonight, they would not survive tomorrow.

Maria stroked her head and said, "Isabel, you can't save everyone, you should care about yourself and think about your wizard, he should still be waiting for you in the north."

Hearing this, the girl raised her head, finally nodded, and walked towards the attic.

As soon as Isabel left, there was a burst of noise from the distorted crowd.

"Lord Saint...please save me!"

"Damn it, my father is Count Blanc, you can't do this!"

"Life Church! You hypocrites!"

Insults and shouts came one after another. When facing death, these knights lost their previous calmness and grace.

Maria's face was calm and she looked at the struggling knights silently.

Since the mutation of the aberration plague, the effect of divine magic on the aberrations has also weakened a lot. They have tried their best, but they still can't save these people.

Although the magic released by Isabel is still effective against aberrations, she will never allow Isabel to sacrifice herself to save others.
