Chapter 27

The air suddenly became cold and everyone's heart tightened.

No one feels the existence of the enemy, but the enemy may really exist, which is the most frightening!

Because no one knows when and where the enemy will attack.

The unknown is the root of fear.

"Everyone, form a circle to protect Gawain!"

Lancelot roared and crossed his sword in front of Gawain: "Anita, give Gawain 'magic shield'!"

Anita trembled with fear, raised her hand and prayed for the power of the light.

The unknown enemy frightened her, but as an attendant, the iron rule made her choose to use her body to resist the possible enemy at this moment, and then cast "true word · shield" for Gawain.

"No, don't give it to me, give it to him!"

Gao Wen's left hand "+ 2 arcane missile wand", right hand "+ 1 death book", index finger wearing "+ 1 ice ring", body wearing "+ 2 blood pattern Robe", and wearing "+ 1 defense amulet", armed himself to his teeth.

This is the whole set of equipment of the evil mage. It's all on him.

Although he is not a mage, it doesn't matter. He can use these equipment.

His comprehensive defense index is as high as 3 points, which is no worse than that of heavy defense soldiers.

He doesn't really need the deliberate protection of others.

More importantly, as long as the Shanjin infantry are still around, he will never be the first to be attacked.

So for the first time, he ordered Anita to give the "magic word shield" to the infantry in Shanjin town.

Anita gritted her teeth.

As a trainee priest who had been promoted for less than a month, she did not receive much light.

That little holy light energy can only make her use "secondary healing" or "true word shield" once a day, and then she has to wait until tomorrow.

If there is a priest's special equipment, it can improve her spell casting ability, or improve her perception and affinity to the holy light, so as to get more holy light care, it won't be so troublesome.

However, No.

When she was sealed by the sealed card, she had accepted the "follow the iron rule". Everything was based on the master's safety and obeyed the master's orders.

There are two irons in order, and the second is more important.

Because the master has his own judgment, his judgment is more important than his own judgment.

So in this case, even if she was extremely worried about Gaowen's safety, she still obeyed Gaowen's orders.

Anita raised her hands.

The holy light shines in her palm, like a 20 Watt energy-saving lamp, illuminating everything around, and making Anita's pale face as holy as an angel.

The holy light illuminated everything and the dark corner in the distance.

Stimulated by the holy light, a monster hiding in a distant passage suddenly rushed out!

Fast, much faster than expected.

This is a human monster with a bent body, with disheveled hair, can't see his face clearly, and his eyes are shining:

It's green light, which means it ignites the fire of the soul, not the lowest undead such as skeletons and zombies.

It has its own soul and IQ!

"Ghoul! Defense!"

Lancelot roared, turned around, and stood between Gawain and the ghoul.

Ghouls?

Gao Wen's heart clicked.

Ghoul is also the lowest level 2!

This monster's muscles atrophy, but its strength is greater and faster than before, faster than elf archers and werewolves!

That's still the most common ghoul.

In front of me, I have eaten so many corpses, which must be stronger than ordinary ghouls.

It is probably an elite level, attribute 33.

Such a guy is hard to deal with!

Ghouls have souls, intelligence, and their own judgments and choices.

So at first it didn't attack because there were too many enemies.

Until stimulated by the holy light, I knew I couldn't hide, so I launched an attack.

Instead of attacking the tall Lancelot or the heavily armed Gawain, it chose the priest Anita, who looked the weakest and the best to deal with.

Anita's attribute is 13 and her defense index is up to 3 points, but that's the value of "true word shield".

In fact, her own attribute is 11, and her defense ability is not even as good as the most ordinary militia.

She can't stop the claws of the elite ghouls.

Anita's first reaction to the rotten and terrible Ghoul was to shrink back.

This is human instinct. This is the normal reaction of ordinary people to ghosts.

She retreated involuntarily, one hand held her right shoulder, and a thin body supported her body.

Anita didn't look back and knew who it was.

The slightly warm hand made her feel the temperature of her master;

The male smell from close to her gave her courage.

She didn't take care of herself because it was the master's order.

She believed in her master and obeyed his orders.

The holy light fell on the infantry of Shanjin Town, forming a shimmering spherical boundary to wrap the infantry of Shanjin town in it.

The ghoul is less than 10 feet away from Anita. She seems to be able to smell the disgusting smell——

Strange, ghouls haven't been here for many years, have they? Its body has long been shriveled. How can it smell?

Anita had no time to think more, so she had to close her eyes.

She was still afraid and dared not face death with her eyes open.

But at least she fulfilled her master's order. Although she died without regret.

"May the holy light be with me, may my soul rest, and may the master have peace all his life..."

Just then, the Shanjin infantry raised their middle finger.

"Monster! I'm here! Hit me!"

The special effect of ridicule works. The ghoul turns around quickly and comes to the infantry in Shanjin town in the twinkling of an eye. A thin claw extends to the neck of the infantry in Shanjin town.

At the next moment, however, it is blocked by a spherical junction.

Its claws have penetrated the barrier, but they can't pierce it.

"Monster, die!"

The infantry of Shanjin town raised their shield in the left hand and held their sword in the right hand. The heavy sword made of steel pierced the ghoul's chest.

The shriveled flesh has stronger defense than ordinary people, and the Epee can't pierce it.

But Lancelot has arrived.

With a sharp sound of breaking the air, a red light crossed, and the + 2 flame long sword cut off the ghoul's neck.

Solved!

Gao Wen breathed a sigh of relief, released his hand holding the North County priest and hugged the North County priest, which didn't make her fall down soft——

Fear and fear have defeated her heart.

Gawain's palms sweat, cold sweat.

The real battle is not a simple data competition.

Generally speaking, when prepared, a standard 5-person first-order team can defeat a third-order creature. This is the basic rule of constant arms.

But this is the underground world, lack of light.

Elite ghouls have a stronger dark vision than night elves, and they are themselves Level 3 arms.

If it sneaks, even Lancelot may not survive.

Even if you can kill it in the end, you have to pay at least three lives.

Fortunately, it was detected in advance.

It's not a game, so it didn't fall.

Ghouls are mutated corpses transformed by death energy. Nothing special. They are one of the most reluctant monsters for adventurers:

It's difficult to deal with. It hasn't fallen yet. The ghost of others has at least a chance to drop soul fragments, and a bottle of holy water can solve it.

Maybe it's a good thing worth hundreds of gold coins for some necromancers who manipulate death energy, but for most people, it's best to burn it immediately to prevent someone from contracting necrotic poison and becoming a zombie.

Of course, Gawain is an exception.

He was about to sacrifice the ghoul, but his face suddenly changed.

He heard a shrill scream, coming from deeper underground!

A few seconds later, he saw fuzzy figures, transparent and slightly luminous, floating from the channel directly opposite the room.

Shadowy, accompanied by the biting wind, it was the cold breath of death.

The shrill cry is extremely penetrating, making people cold on their backs and cold sweat on their heads.

Many, at least five or six.

"It's a ghost!"

Lancelot's voice sounded again, with unprecedented seriousness: "six in total! Prepare holy water!"
