The swords and swords intersected, and a dazzling cold light flashed through them.

The dark shadow flashed by and rushed down from the air. Faced with the attack in front of him, the man in armor shouted loudly, and the sword in his hand suddenly burst out with a powerful momentum and stabbed forward with force. Faced with the sword that was stabbed, the black shadow in the air had to turn over and roll on the ground in a mess, avoiding the man's attack. But soon it stood up quickly and swept back with a string of afterimages. As the black shadow's movements, white skeleton soldiers rolled out of the soil. They raised their weapons high and forced them towards the people in front of them.

"We have to leave here immediately!!"

Guarding the luxurious carriage beside him, a middle-aged man wearing leather armor and carrying a giant sword with a worried look on his face. He looked at the undead creature in front of him with a serious expression, waved the giant sword in his hand and retreated. Then he looked to the side and saw that beside everyone, a petite girl in a robe was gritting her teeth, holding up the staff in her hand, and a wall of fire appeared in front of her, blocking the undead creatures.

"Livita! Support it again!"

“…………!!”

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the girl did not speak, but gritted her teeth and nodded. Seeing the girl's response, the middle-aged man sighed in his heart, but the speed in his hand was not slow, and he quickly repelled the two invading undead creatures. He waved the giant sword in his hand, and the sword wind rose up flat to the ground and dispersed around. In just a blink of an eye, the monsters in front of him were knocked away. However, these undead creatures obviously didn't care. They still made heart-shaking wailing sounds, and then rushed forward with big strides.

It's really troublesome.

Seeing the undead creature in front of him still attacking relentlessly, the man frowned. He lowered his head and looked at the silver-white cross-star sign on his chest. However, his face was hesitant.

Although Rhodes became the Void Dragon, he no longer cared about the development of the Starlight Guild. However, the Starlight Guild did not decline because of Rhode's departure. On the contrary, with Rhode's reputation, the power of the Starlight Guild grew stronger and stronger. The wars in the past two years have caused many refugees to escape to the Void Territory, and there are also some people with unique skills. However, they are unwilling to enter the army to fight. So they entered Starlight as mercenaries. After all, in the Void Territory, the Starlight Guild is the only one. Under the intentional or unintentional training of Marlene, the Starlight Guild is basically a semi-official civil organization. The previous complex mercenary rules were temporarily abolished due to constant wars. After all, at this time, the mercenaries were all the same.

We also need to protect our homes and do whatever we have time to do. The Void Leader itself has nothing to do with the Mercenary Association. Therefore, Xingguang has grown and grown here, and everyone is very clear about the relationship between Xingguang and the lord here, so they are very relieved to ask them to do things. Because the Void Leader is in a mess, it is not enough at the beginning. So sometimes, many things that the army cannot do will be assigned to mercenaries to complete. These mercenaries are also very comfortable staying in Xingguang. After all, there is a dragon soul covering the Creation, and no one dares to cause trouble for them. Of course, under the strict order of Marlene, Xingguang does not do anything to oppress others, so it is also very popular and loved by everyone.

This time, this team of mercenaries came for this. They originally wanted to investigate the activities of the undead creatures on the border of the Void Territory. Although Malin, Qiludi and Alice were there, the large army had been eliminated. However, it is difficult to guarantee that there would be no small group of undead creatures entering it. The so-called Thousand Mile Dike was destroyed in the ant hole, and Marlin and others were busy with a lot of trouble. How could they have time to deal with such trivial matters? If the army was dispatched, it would be quite difficult to patrol. Fortunately, the Void Territory is not short of money, and this is not a secret task, so they directly handed over to the mercenaries of the Starlight Guild to eliminate these scattered soldiers and brave men.

And they are one of them. This time they got information about the presence of undead creatures in the surrounding mountains and forests, so they came to check it out.

What surprised everyone was that these undead creatures were not only hundreds of in number, but also had their strength beyond their imagination. This team was joined by Rhodes when he recruited a large number of mercenaries. It is now an elite team, and because of Rhodes, they have not had many fights with undead creatures. They think they have a lot of knowledge about undead creatures. However, after this attack, they found that things were far more strange than they thought.

Take those skeleton soldiers for example. It was no problem for middle-aged men to smash three or five with just one slap. But now these skeleton soldiers are extremely hard. They can only slap two at most with one blow with all their strength, and they cannot completely kill them. Not only that, even the flames that originally pose a great threat to the undead seem to have lost their original power at this time. Although the undead creatures still dare not get too close, they will not become fragile as before.

This caught everyone off guard. Although they also learned from their colleagues that the undead creatures have become a bit strange recently, they did not expect that the change was so great that they could not help but suffer a great loss. Now they can only retreat slowly and leave here. If they can retreat to the plain, they will have the power of a battle. But in this dark jungle, everyone is tied up with their hands and feet. Fortunately, this time, except for the leading blood-sucking species, the others are just skeleton soldiers. Otherwise, if a few death knights or lichs came, everyone would have been dead at this moment.

But even so, everyone was still in a hurry. The middle-aged man originally planned to dig a trap and then destroy the other party in turn. But now he had to change his mind. After all, the other party was coming in full force. One by one, although it was only the lowest-level army, the enhanced skeleton soldiers were enough to give them a headache.

“Retreat quickly!!”

Seeing the people behind were entangled by the skeleton soldiers, the middle-aged man also shouted with a cold expression. If it were just ordinary skeleton soldiers, how could he be entangled with people like him? But these annoying undead creatures are so annoying now. This made him very anxious. He could feel that the reason why these undead creatures did not rush up was definitely not because they could not beat him, but as if they were deliberately delaying the speed of others. This made him extremely worried, for fear that these undead creatures would have any conspiracy. But now, the colleagues behind him were also gritting their teeth and desperately resisting the attack of the undead creatures in front of him, and there was no way to retreat. If they retreated, they might be completely surrounded by these undead creatures. But now, if they don’t retreat, they will only support for a moment. The final outcome is still not much better.

"Captain, let me do it."

Just when the middle-aged man was worried about the situation in front of him, the mage girl with a cold face holding a staff said. Although her face was pale, she still gritted her teeth and supported the fire wall in front of her. Obviously, she had reached the limit, but when she heard the girl's words, the man frowned. Although this girl had only been one year since she joined her mercenary squad, her spell casting methods were very powerful. At first, she looked down on this little girl, but now she has become her most trusted partner and teammate. However, she is still a child after all, and it is not easy to be able to support her until now. Even if he doesn't understand spells, looking at the girl's pale face, you will know that she has no power now.

"Can you do it? Livita, if it doesn't work, don't force it. I've sent a distress signal just now. I'm sure reinforcements will come soon."

As he spoke, the man looked at the cross star badge in front of him with a complex expression. As members who first joined the Star Guild, they were not only strong, but also the equipment they obtained was also a first-class good thing. Take the cross star badge he wore for example. It was the first batch of products created by Labis. It not only can use the four elements to protect the barrier, but can even directly teleport him to the land of atonement when the situation is urgent. Only the first three members of the Star Guild have this badge. They want

I was once exploring with Rhodes, or I was the first to enter the guild, and I had no credit and worked hard. But later mercenaries obviously could not have such things. Labis has long ignored the affairs of the Starlight Guild. She had to be busy with magic technology with the Void Corps, so naturally it was impossible for her to make any magic equipment for the public mercenaries like before. Although her apprentices still provided alchemy potions for the guild as always, it was obvious that they could not have one such thing as the early stage.

Although they are a qualified team, after two years of ups and downs, one-third of them are behind the scenes. Of course, they cannot have this badge, and the girls around them are one of them. If they leave like this, they will undoubtedly abandon them completely, and this kind of thing is absolutely impossible for them to do! In any case, they are all their subordinates!

"No. Everyone can't hold on anymore, let me do it! I have a unique skill that can summon magical monsters to entangle these monsters. By that time, it will not be too late for everyone to retreat."

"But……………"

Hearing the girl's answer, the man's face became more and more worried. Although he knew how to use spells, he had never eaten pork and watched pig run. He knew that when the caster activated the summoning technique, he had to control his summoning beast wholeheartedly, otherwise he would be retaliated by the other party. If it were before, he would ask Livita to try it, but now looking at her pale face, I am afraid that even if the monster is summoned, it can only be barely supported. This is almost equivalent to letting her face the attack of undead creatures alone!

"There's no time, captain."

Seeing the man's hesitation, the girl said softly, and then her hands suddenly stretched out. Seeing the girl's movements, the man's expression changed drastically, and he stretched out his hand, but the next moment he had to withdraw his hand. He held the giant sword tightly and waved it hard to knock out the undead creature that rushed over again.

At this moment, Livita reached out and murmured. Soon, with the girl's movements, a bright red flame appeared between her hands. Then Livita suddenly opened her eyes and sang loudly. With her singing, the pure bright red flame suddenly burst out and flew forward. Seeing the flames burst, the undead creatures suddenly screamed and retreated. The flames twisted in front of the undead creatures, and then turned into a full body.

Red, a huge rhino with flames. Its nose was sprayed with hot white steam, and its eyes were staring at the monster in front of it fiercely. When they saw this huge fire elemental creature, the undead creatures instinctively retreated. They made evil screams and slowly turned their steps to confront the monster in front of them. Although their strength has increased a lot, the fear of flames in the bones of the undead creatures is natural. At present, what Livita summoned was a pure fire elemental creature, which really made the undead creatures feel uneasy and fearful.

“Woo——!!”

At this moment, when I saw the fire elemental creature in front of me, the vampire who had been hiding behind me suddenly raised his head and shouted, and with his screams, the land that seemed to be flat and stable around me suddenly flipped, and then skeletons emerged from it, completely surrounding everyone.

"Damn it!!"

It was not until this time that the man's expression changed drastically and he saw the other party's true intentions. It turned out that they were not concerned about themselves before, but hoped to use themselves as bait to lure more people. Otherwise, if they summoned so many undead creatures from the beginning, they would definitely be alive without death. But now seeing that they really plan to retreat, they gave up the idea of ​​bait and planned to solve themselves first!

At this moment, looking at the skeleton soldiers with more than 500 or 600 feet in front of him, the man was also cold in his heart. He reached out and pressed the badge on his chest. But after a moment, he sighed, then took the badge off his chest and handed it to the girl.

"team leader?"

Seeing the man's actions, the girl was stunned. Facing her questioning gaze, the man's mouth slightly raised and he spoke.

"Prepare for a while and use the remaining magic power to activate the magic on this badge. This is the treasure we got from Lord Labis, which is completely different from the badge you are wearing now. After activation, a teleportation array will appear. At that time, we will teleport back together."

“Ah… OK…………………”

Hearing the man's words, the girl was stunned for a moment, then reached out to take the badge and looked at it curiously. Seeing the girl's expression, the man sighed. He didn't know what reaction she would have when she teleported back, but now he didn't care about that much. He has followed the boss in the wind and rain for the past two years, and has seen everything. What else is there to be afraid of now? But this little guy, both his parents have died, and he didn't plan to let her be a mercenary at the beginning. After all, the Void Corps also has a high demand for spell casters. If she wanted, she originally planned to send her to Grantia, and she would definitely have a better development under Lord Marin. But she followed her and others wholeheartedly to take risks... Now, it's time to end.

“Woo…………!!”

At this moment, a sudden change suddenly arises. The runes that were originally suspended by the girl and used to manipulate illusions suddenly began to twist and deform, and Livita's face was also bloody. She gritted her teeth and supported the runes in front of her. The others had already retreated to Livita's side and protected her in it.

"Quick, Livita, start the badge!!"

"No, my power seems to have something......!!"

"boom!!!"

Before Livita finished speaking, she saw the fiery red flame rhino suddenly explode, then turned into a large area of ​​flames and dispersed in all directions, completely swallowing the undead creatures that could not be avoided. However, the flame did not dissipate as before. On the contrary, they moved forward like a rolling tide stream. At the next moment, the bright red and dazzling light suddenly burst out, causing everyone to close their eyes involuntarily.

"Huh… I finally got back."

At this moment, a voice suddenly appeared in their ears. When they heard this voice, everyone couldn't help but open their eyes and looked at it. Then they were shocked. There were a hundred people who suddenly appeared at the point where the flames burst. Most of them were wearing strange clothes, but there was a dusty feeling between their eyebrows, which seemed like they were traveling a long distance. But what surprised the man was, where did these people emerge?

"It's really not easy..."

Looking up and looking at the familiar starry sky in front of him, Rhode couldn't help but sigh. Although it was not difficult to come out of the Fire Plain, it was not easy. If Maribel hadn't noticed that someone was establishing a summoning channel between the Dragon Soul Continent and the Fire Plain and used it, it would probably take some time for Rhode to return to the Dragon Soul Continent.

"Finally back..."

Rod murmured to himself, suppressing the complicated thoughts in his chest, then he looked around and was stunned.

What's going on with these undead creatures?

"hiss!!"

Faced with the sudden appearance of Rhodes and others, the undead was also shocked, and the blood-sucking species in the lead shouted angrily. Hearing his order, the skeleton soldiers no longer hesitated, raised their weapons high and rushed forward, as if they were about to completely swallow everyone up like a flood.

"snort!"

Seeing this scene, Rhodes's face darkened.

"Kill them."
Chapter completed!
