In the blink of an eye, it was already past 11 o'clock in the night. After practicing for seven hours in the Valley of the Falling Moon and sweeping through a large part of the valley, my experience value had already risen to 78% of level 47, not too far from my level 48. However, my ranking on the Level Rankings dropped all the way down to third place.
He took a look at his bag. There were over ten pieces of Silver Grade equipment, thirty pieces of Level 5 Sword-type equipment, and fifty pieces of Level 4 Sword-type equipment. This was definitely a treasure trove of Level 4 equipment.
It was terrifying, but right when I cleared out a few dozen ghost guards that had occupied a rocky area, I heard light cries of pain from up ahead. On a closer look, it was a young man covered in blood, lying in the middle of the rubble, with one of his arms nailed to the stone wall by a bone spike.
On the side, there were five Netherworld Ghost standing guard, each pair of eyes staring at the surroundings.
At this moment, one of his arms was almost pierced and cut off by the Undead Bone Thorn. His face was pale and blood flowed incessantly, and cold sweat covered his face. If this carried on, he would not be able to last much longer before bleeding to death.
Regardless of whether it was an NPC who triggered the quest or not, this person had to be saved!
I looked around and was not in a hurry to make a move. I first cleared out a few Nether Ghosts that might attract aggro and then charged forward, launching a frontal attack on five Nether Ghosts who were in a group: kill one of them half-way through the barrier, and provoke one of the other. I activated the Glory Shield and continued to attack the second Nether Ghost Claw, while at my side, the radiance of the Nether Ghost Claw shot out and hit my shoulder with a "pa pa" sound.
Within a minute, after taking care of five Nether Ghost Soldiers, I had only 20% of my HP remaining. As I recovered my HP, I walked towards the captured Knight Vilat and pulled out a bone spike. Throwing it to the side with a "clang" sound, Vilat cried out miserably in pain. His face was covered in cold sweat as he looked at me and said, "Young Knight … Are you a Knight from the Great Deer City? "
"Yes."
I nodded. "Are you from the Silver Cavalry?"
"Soldiers of the Fifth Battalion of the Silver Cavalry Regiment. Vilat, thank you for saving my life …" He tried to get up, but stumbled and fell back to the ground. He had lost too much blood.
I hastily took out a precious bottle of white water and passed it to him. "Drink this."
A Level 5 blood bottle, even an NPC would think that it is extremely valuable. Vilat looked at Bai Su Shui and said in astonishment, "Young Knight … "You have impressed me so much, thank you …"
He sat on the ground in a daze and said, "We need to inform Captain as soon as possible that this is not just a Purgatory Graveyard, but a teleportation formation connecting the spatial walls to a tunnel. If we allow the Netherworld Spirit to devour the laws of space, they will send the unending army of Undead from the north to the borders of Colossal Deer City. We have underestimated their ambitions."
"Why did you go back to deliver the message?" I asked.
He looked not far away and saw that the corpse of a war horse had been eaten away by the Netherworld Spirit. His eyes immediately reddened and he said, "My mount is already dead. I'm afraid I can't go back …"
"No problem, I'll bring you back."
I turned around and rode on the wild donkey. "I'll carry you back," I said.
"Really? Young knight... " He was moved: "If you can bring me back to see the captain, I will reward you well with my status as a member of the Silver Cavalry!"
"Ding!"
System Notification: You have accepted the quest [Rescue Sentinel Knight Vilat] ([B] Class [[])!
Quest Details: Bring Vilat with you and get rid of the nether ghost soldiers. Bring him to meet the leader of the Silver Knights, Ted. You will receive a generous reward, but you must be careful. Once you are found out, the nether ghost soldiers will attack you crazily, making you wish you were dead!
With a wave of my hand, I immediately hoisted this heavily injured cavalry soldier onto my shoulder, urged the wild donkey to move at full speed towards the periphery of the Valley of the Falling Moon. Indeed, the sentry on my shoulder seemed to have turned into a chicken-legged castle that was emitting a fragrant scent, while the surrounding Netherworld Ghost Soldiers all became hungry dogs, crazily charging forward, all of the Netherworld Ghost Soldiers within five hundred yards have gone mad!
Damn, no wonder this rescue mission was evaluated as a [B] class four star mission. If it was a normal person, they would definitely not be able to escape.
I crazily charged forward, the ghost soldiers formed a sea, surrounding me in the blink of an eye, but it didn't matter. I activated the Glory Shield to reduce the damage, while locking onto the ghost soldiers in the distance. I activated Charge, and immediately, a strong feeling of pushing came from behind me, "Swish!" I dashed out of the mob like a sword, while the sentry Velat my shoulder was overwhelmed with shock: "Young Knight, you're too brave and fierce …"
I charged straight out of the monster horde, speeding forward at a speed even higher than the Nether Ghost Soldiers. Behind me, the glow of the Nether Ghost Claw kept patting my shoulder, but I didn't care too much as I activated the Reviving Wind and drank a Rank 4 medicine every five seconds. Finally, when I charged out of the horizon, the dense crowd of Nether Ghost Soldiers behind me finally stopped chasing me.
Further on, on a flat plain with deer antlers, the Silver Cavalry's camp arrived. Countless archers rode on iron cavalry, and when one of them saw the sentry, he could not help but exclaim in astonishment, "Vilat, didn't you go out to investigate? "How did it become like this …"
"I've fallen into a hole in the Purgatory Legion. I've discovered a big secret. Quickly, bring me to see Guild Leader Ted!"
"Alright, come with us!"
A group of NPCs were leading the way, while I was following them quickly. The moment I stepped into the Guild Leader's tent, I heard a melodious bell ringing in my ears. I had earned both my Reputation and my experience points …
"Ding ~!"
System Notification: Congratulations, you have completed the [Rescue Sentinel Vilat] Quest ([B] Class: [* *], Reward + 300000 EXP, Gold Coins + 800, Reputation + 180!
… ….
"Shua!" A golden light fell on my head. I'm Level 48 now. The speed at which I level up from quests is definitely not something a monster can compare to. If I knew about this quest, I would have been Level 48 a long time ago!
Inside the tent, there was a large group of quasi-BOSS level and BOSS level NPCs. They were all commanders of the Silver Cavalry Regiment, and right on the seat of honor, there was a general wearing silver armour sitting upright. It was the leader of the Silver Cavalry, Ted, a fierce general with a full face of beard, his name was a deep red, and his level was "?" Three question marks, even with my level, I couldn't see them.
"What's the matter with you, Willard?" A Battalion Commander said with a frown.
"My lord, when I investigated, I stumbled into an undead cave. It was a narrow escape, but I brought back an astonishing piece of news."
"Oh?"
The battalion commander turned around and said to Ted: "Elder, this is a very outstanding scout knight under my command. His name is Vilat. He will personally report to you."
Ted nodded, his eyes shining brightly. "You can say that now, Vilat."
"Yes sir!"
"Guild Leader, when this subordinate mistakenly entered the crypt, I found out that these crypts are not used to hatch the nests of Undead Ghost Soldiers, but are a bridge connecting two worlds. Those Ghost Soldiers are constantly using the power of death to devour the laws of space and void, wanting to break through a passage and bring the Purgatory Legion from the Blood Evil Region to the borders of Colossal Deer City."
"What!?"
Ted suddenly stood up, his brows locked together. "Have you found any traces of the shaman?"
"Nope."
"Could it be that a low level dead being like the Netherworld Ghost Pawn can actually corrode through the World Wall?" Ted frowned, "Impossible, unless there is a Spiritual Mage involved, otherwise the Death Legion in the Valley of the Falling Moon will never be able to open a space bridge."
"But the space is indeed already starting to become chaotic."
"Lord, if you don't believe me, you can send more people to investigate."
Ted shook his head. "I believe in my soldiers. If that's the case, then just the strength of the Silver Knights is no longer enough to deal with this powerful enemy of mine. Perhaps … There will be Purgatory Knights and Undead Dragons soon, and even Spiritualized Mages will appear. If this happens, unless we use the power of the War God, ordinary people will not be able to fight against her. "
A young Battalion Commander said, "Sir, please send someone to deliver a letter to the City Lord. Besides that, there is nothing else we can do."
"That's right."
"I need a loyal knight to go to the Gesun Stronghold where Princess Qingyi is. I will be carrying my own letter. I would like to ask the princess to send reinforcements to the Valley of the Falling Moon."
When I heard that, I immediately volunteered, "I can."
"You can't."
Ted rejected immediately, saying, "You are just a young adventurer with insufficient experience. This kind of important matter cannot be handed over to you. At the very least, it must be handed over to a powerful Saint General!"
Damn, it hurt his self-esteem!
"However..."
With a sudden change in tone, Ted said, "Young man, it's enough to prove your courage to bring your mount here. I still have something I need you to do."
"Sire, please speak."
He raised his eyebrows and said, "The front lines of the Silver Knights have already made contact with the undead army in the Valley of the Falling Moon. We need more warriors to fight in this battle, so … "Go ahead, take my order and kill as many ghost soldiers as you can. It will record your battle achievements. After the final battle ends, you will receive a generous reward!"
"Oh?"
A black token fell into his bag with a "Pa Da" sound. The kill count was: 0, battle points: 0, good item, a quest item to accumulate. It seemed like he would have to stay here for a long time.
