When I stepped into the forest, I could already hear a low roar from far away. There were Skeleton Soldiers with blank eyes appearing in the forest, they were only equipped with a few simple armors, some only had bracers and knee guards, some only had damaged breastplates, in their hands they held rusted blunt swords, or even broken iron swords. They let out faint mournful cries as they slowly moved through the forest.
However, due to the strong numbers, the moment they made their move, they would become a sea of people. When they were alive, they were all human, but after their souls were absorbed by the Necromancers, they turned into puppets of the Power of Death. In the end, the scene in front of them changed into this appearance.
"Hiss …"
A Skeleton Soldier had already discovered me and issued a low roar. This howl seemed to have the function of a call to action. In the end, more than a dozen of the Skeleton Soldiers in the surroundings madly rushed over and brandished their broken swords.
Kill!
Summoning the golden fire blade, I charged straight forward, my long sword bursting out with the radiance of the Barrier Breaking Five Chain Strike, consecutively unleashing two war tornadoes, adding on the baptism of rain of fire, the health bar of a group of skeleton soldiers immediately started to fall crazily, and I was naturally attacked as well. The attack of a level 63 monster is too high, every sword would deal around 200 to 300 HP, and once I was surrounded I couldn't take it anymore, so I could only take a detour and lead a group of skeletons to run while fighting.
In less than two minutes, it was completely cleaned. A pile of silver coins on the ground and some white equipment were all swept into the bag. Looking at the EXP bar, it increased by 1%.
He opened the map and continued to move forward into the depths of the Crystal Forest.
Half an hour later, when I had cleared out another large area of skeleton soldiers, a sharp screech suddenly came from the sky — —
"Tsk tsk!"
He raised his head to look, but there was no sign of him. All he saw was dense clouds.
"Crackle …"
A figure suddenly broke through the clouds and charged straight towards the ground. Just when I was astonished, she had already arrived in front of me, it was actually a monster with the body of a giant eagle but also the head of a ferocious woman.
Danger!
The ghost warhorse wailed and returned to my mount space, which required me to wait for ten minutes before I could summon it again. As for me, I rolled a few meters away along the ground, the pain on my back was scorching, I turned around and saw that she was still in the air, malevolently looking at me with murderous intent. It was also at this moment that I finally saw what kind of thing she was — —
[harpy] (Purple-gold level monster)
Level:?
Attack:?
Defense:?
Blood vitality:?
Skills:?
Description: The harpy is a dark creature with powerful wings, a strong ability to fly and claims to be the daughter of the Wind God. However, the daughters of these Wind God are not simple, they have been a predator since ancient times, always attacking humans and livestock. And after the descent of Purgatory, the harpy has joined the Purgatory Legion without hesitation, becoming a force that cannot be underestimated.
… ….
In the blink of an eye, she appeared again!
It let out a shrill whistling sound and dived down with its claws glowing with a cold light.
I hastily held up my shield and suddenly took on a defensive stance, but due to the great disparity in strength, I was still struck by the attack and was sent tumbling back along with my shield, my vital energy and blood fell by 4000 +, so continuing like this won't do, I would very likely be killed by the harpy in the crystal forest. The instant that I poured out a bottle of blood, I immediately sped away, sprinting towards the depths of the forest.
"Die!"
In the sky, the sharp whistle of the harpy sounded, like a demon trying to take its life. She flapped her wings, turning into a whirlwind of blades, cutting off all the branches in the jungle, proving that I was wrong. It was almost impossible to escape from the harpy's attacks by relying on terrain.
"Bang!"
Another claw attack hit me from behind. The harpy's attack power was too strong, causing me to lose all of my HP. I felt like I had nowhere else to go, regretting that I had gone too far. The fight for the territory was too dangerous for the single player to enter, otherwise, it would be difficult to fight against the harpy unless it was a team fight.
Just when I was regretting, a golden light suddenly blossomed in front of me, and a formation appeared on the grassland. "Shua!" A figure descended, impressively, it was the one I hadn't seen for a long time, Sura. Her eyes emitted a silver radiance, and her five fingers slowly held up a ball of formation energy.
She came to save me?
I hastily rushed over, and the moment I arrived at Sura's side, she abruptly closed her palm. Instantly, it was as if the particles in her body were pulled out and she was teleported to another place.
"Woosh ~ ~ ~"
It was still in the Crystal Forest, but the coordinates had been increased by more than 100 units, and the surrounding area was filled with cavalry holding shields and spears, forming a circle. At the center of the circle were two wooden crossbows.
"She's here!"
Sura held onto my arm and loudly said, "Prepare to aim!"
The Harpy's figure appeared in the sky above the forest. With a flap of her wings, the wind blades sliced the birds into pieces and a deathly aura surrounded her body. Her eyes filled with killing intent, she laughed sinisterly: "You dare to intrude into the dark domain. "Go to hell!"
"Fire!"
Sura immediately gave the order.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Two crossbows shot out at the same time. The harpy seemed to realize the danger as she twisted her body to avoid one giant arrow but couldn't avoid the other. "Puff!" A rain of blood rained down in the air.
Then, the harpy left with her wounds.
… ….
I heaved a sigh of relief and frowned. "Why are you guys here?"
Sura's delicate eyebrows slightly creased. "This is exactly what I wanted to ask you. How did you come here alone? Don't tell me you don't know that this is the battle zone between Great Deer City and the Purgatory Legion?"
"I know, I'm looking for you." "No," I said.
Sura wanted to speak but hesitated, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of emotion as she ignored her and said, "The Bronze Knights have followed Mayor Luo's orders to build a sentry post in the crystal forest to provide protection for the Giant Deer City's Steel Cavalry. We have been here for several days, but the situation has become even more complicated than we imagined. The Purgatory Legion not only sent out a large number of Ghosts, ghouls, Skeletons Legion, but also sent out Harpies.
"Yes."
I turned my head to look at the crossbow behind me. "This one looks pretty good."
Sura slightly smiled. "Although the giant crossbow bolt is powerful, its shooting accuracy is too poor. The harpy is nimble and it was just a coincidence that it hit just now. Moreover …" The giant crossbow arrow has a huge flaw. "
"What flaws?"
"It's impossible to fight at night." Sura frowned and said, "Once the harpies start their battle at night, it'll be very difficult for us to aim and deal with their attacks. This time, I've brought over three hundred elite cavalry, but it might not be enough to complete the mission and withstand the attacks of the harpies. Since you've come, you should stay and help me."
I nodded. "Okay."
In the next moment, the notification popped up.
"Ding!"
System Notification: You have accepted the Legion quest [Evasion of the Harpy] ([A] class [1000] class!
The difficulty of a 4-star A grade mission was not low at all.
At the same time, a countdown appeared on the quest interface, showing that there were still 17 minutes until the first wave of the harpies' attack time. At the same time, a countdown appeared on the quest interface, indicating that there were still 17 minutes until the first wave of the harpies' attack time.
… ….
Time trickled by, and one by one, the knights set up torches at the outer perimeter, pinning their warhorses down, holding their shields and forming a formation at the outer perimeter. Their spears protruded from their shields, and only a pair of eyes could be seen looking outside.
In the camp, the same silence as before the great battle had begun.
I held my Violet Lightning Azure Frost Sword and rode on the ghost warhorse to stand far away. I was very calm.
Sura was right next to me. He gloomily said, "You chose to stand here. Is there some kind of mystery behind it?"
I smiled and said, "The harpies will probably attack the crossbows first. When they get closer to the ground, it will be possible to charge at them. If we can knock them out with Charge, we can naturally kill them."
Sura giggled. "The Bronze Knight Regiment hasn't had such a shrewd member for a long time. If you really can keep these crafty Banshees, I'll help you thoroughly kill them."
"En!"
The countdown ended quickly, but what greeted us was not the harpies, but a group of stooped ghost soldiers who had rushed out from the depths of the forest.
Sura couldn't help sucking in a breath of cold air. "Warriors of the Bronze Knight Regiment, use your bodies to guard the campsite. May the glory of the Xia Clan be with you!"
