Chapter 922: Death Knights
Hurry what, stop him? Lin Li smiled bitterly in his heart, the other party was a saint-level powerhouse, what could he do to stop it, and the other party's summoning was obviously not as slow as ordinary people using summoning spells, and he had just withdrawn the star fragment thunder that he shot out, and the black gate that exuded a terrifying aura had already taken shape.
Lin Li and the others didn't have time to react at all, and they saw that in the black gate formed by the black flame, a nightmare beast whose strength had reached the peak of the legend had already led the neat queue of death knights to rush out. The legendary peak nightmare beast was undoubtedly Rodhart's mount back then, and only Rodhart, a Sanctuary-level knight of heaven, could control it.
Although the Death Knight under the Knight of Damnation cannot reach the legendary level, with the blessing of the Knight of Damnation's various auxiliary magic, he can definitely exert his combat power above the legendary level. It was this Death Knights, under the command of Rodhart, that almost destroyed the entire Light Wind Plains, and I don't know how many legendary powerhouses fell under the charge of the Death Knights.
"Ferry, don't tell me that you kid really has these means, if there are any other means, hurry up, otherwise it will be too late." Seeing that Rodhart summoned the terrifying Death Knights, Conneris couldn't help but panic, and secretly regretted in his heart, he was really full, and he was so busy that he was in peace, why did he come here to join in the fun!
Just one Rodhart has already made it extremely difficult for everyone to deal with, even if he was once severely injured by the prophet Viren, but the strong man of the Holy Domain is the strong man of the Holy Land, as long as he does not fall into the realm, his powerful power is still not something that mortals can compete with. And now, even the Death Knights have appeared, is there anything more desperate in this world?
"The Ancient Demon God who once mastered conspiracy and deception, is there nothing you can do in the face of the current situation?" Lin Li was also a little anxious at this time, thinking that he was just dealing with Rodhart alone, but who would have thought that this guy would even summon the Death Knights. Under the command of Rodhart, a Sanctuary-level Knight of Damnation, the combat power exerted by this Death Knights is probably not inferior to that of a Sanctuary-level powerhouse.
"I'm the biggest bad guy Anriel has ever had, what can I do! What the hell did that bastard do Veren, he didn't purify Rodhart, and even the Death Knights left him. I really doubt that there is some unspeakable relationship between these two guys. Conneris exclaimed angrily.
Hearing Conneris's complaint, Lin Li could only smile bitterly in his heart, I am afraid that no one would believe it when he said it, the prophet of the Temple of Light is called Viren, the son of the Holy Light, and the degenerate Rodhart, who brought great shame to the Temple of Light, are a pair of real brothers. After all, the Temple of Light is just a religion, not a spokesperson for justice and justice, and the prophet Viren also has human feelings, how can he really kill his relatives for the sake of unrelated people.
But Lin Li couldn't say this matter to Conneris, after all, this was something that the Temple of Light had been trying to cover up, and he knew it in his heart, so there was no need to go around to publicize it. Besides, even if he said it, it would not help the situation at this time, and it would not be possible for Rodhart to commit suicide in shame.
Looking at the death knights pouring out of the black gate, Lin Li knew that this battle would not work hard without fighting hard. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Rodhart to summon the Death Knights, Lin Li first took out the summoning magic lamp, released the Lord of Nightmares and the Bone Red Dragon inside, and at the same time, through the connection of the soul brand, the Holy Death Knights who were originally blocking Rodhart in the palace in front also sped up.
And after doing this, Lin Li raised the Sun King Scepter in his hand again, and instantly condensed a light and dark giant sword, but instead of attacking Rodhart, he directly slashed at the giant pillar in the palace with exquisite patterns. Although there is a defensive magic pattern arranged by Osric in this palace, Lin Li is already at the peak of the legend at this time, and he has comprehended a trace of the mystery of the power of the holy domain, and the power of this light and dark giant sword is no longer a simple defensive magic pattern that can be blocked. Only a loud bang was heard, and the huge pillar broke in response, and even the roof of the palace fell in large chunks.
"What are you doing!" Conneris was a little confused by Linli's approach.
"Demolish the house, or how will you deal with the Death Knights." Lin Li replied, but the movements in his hand did not stop at all, and another light and dark giant sword slashed towards the pillar on the other side.
Although there were times when a narrow space was often more advantageous to the outnumbered side, now Lin Li had to face not only a Death Knight, but also a Sanctuary-level Knight of Damnation. It is obviously unrealistic to fight hard with such an enemy, there is not enough room for maneuver, and if it is really contained, it will definitely be dead or alive.
Although the spacious space is more conducive to the deployment of the Death Knights, what Lin Li wants is to let the Death Knights unfold, so that the power of the Death Knights can be dispersed, otherwise he can only face the impact of the concentrated forces of the Death Knights. Hearing Lin Li's explanation, Conneris also understood, and directly smashed his fist into a pillar next to him.
As several pillars fell, the entire underground palace began to shake continuously, and the huge pillars carved with exquisite patterns in the palace instantly crawled with spiderweb-like cracks, and then collapsed. The palace that lost its pillars collapsed in a large area in the shaking, and it was only a blink of an eye, and the splendid and luxurious palace had already become a ruined wall. The people who were originally in the palace were directly exposed to the more spacious underground caverns.
At this time, the black door behind Rodhart had closed and dissipated, and it was actually only a blink of an eye from opening to closing. And there are hundreds of death knights in the palace, all armed with riding spears, wearing black full-body armor, sitting down a hideous-looking nightmare beast, surrounded by a death aura like black flames. These death knights, in the slaughter of the Plains of Light Wind back then, there were thousands of dead souls in their hands, so that in the black flames around them, countless distorted faces still faintly flashed, constantly making people's souls tremble and wail.
Legend has it that when Rodhart ravaged the Plains of the Breeze, there were nearly a thousand Death Knights under his command, and only a few hundred came out at this time, and I don't know if Rodhart had reservations, or most of them were purified by the prophet Viren. Of course, even if it was just a hundred Death Knights, it would definitely not be easy for Lin Li to deal with. Don't look at Lin Li's subordinates, there is also a Death Knights, and they are all transformed into Death Knights who manipulate divine power, but there is a saying that is very appropriate here, "One soldier will bear a nest".
Rodhart is a knight of damnation at the level of the Sanctuary, and Lin Li is just the pinnacle of the legend, vaguely touching a trace of the mystery of the power of the Sanctuary, and it can't even be said to be touching the edge of the Sanctuary. What's more, Lin Li is not a real Knight of Damnation, although he has subdued a group of death knights, but the Knight of Damnation is born with the blessing magic of the death knights under him. As soon as the two sides are compared, we can see how obvious the gap in combat power is.
Rodhart, who summoned the Death Knights, did not stop and wait for the Death Knights to encircle and suppress those enemies, but only waited for the door of summoning to close and dissipate, and then waved the Frozen Blade in his hand without stopping, and launched a fierce attack on Lin Li again. At the same time, the Death Knights also divided into several groups and surrounded and killed the crowd on one side.
Don't look at Lin Li's side, there are all strong people above the legendary level, but in the face of the siege of the death knights, they can only barely support. The coordination between these death knights, whether they advance or retreat, is truly seamless, more tacit than any supposedly well-trained team Lin Li has ever seen. Or it can't be said to be a tacit understanding, these death knights give people the feeling that they are one at all, so that people can't find the slightest flaw that can be used.
At this time, the team that had been blocking Rodhart in the palace in front of them also rushed to this palace that had just become ruins under the leadership of the elemental dragon Xiaohua.
Although Xiaohua is usually a little laid-back, at this time, she saw Lin Li in danger under Rodhart's attack, and there was a trace of anxiety in her clear eyes. It didn't care about the team below, flapping its little wings like cicada wings, screaming and flying towards Lin Li. At the same time, it instantly emitted countless powerful magics, forming a huge magic storm, with a devastating power, sweeping towards his front, bound to remove all obstacles in front of him.
However, it was this magical storm that seemed to destroy everything, but it encountered an insurmountable barrier. After a violent explosion and roar, a nightmare beast with a fierce face burning with black flames revealed itself in the dust of magic. This nightmare beast is Rodhart's mount, and I don't know how many strong people he has fought with Rodhart back then, so whether it is strength or experience, it has reached a very amazing level, and I am afraid that it can already be called the king of nightmares.
Seeing that his way was blocked, the elemental dragon Xiaohua clenched his small fists and let out an angry roar towards the other party, and the pure and incomparably huge dragon power was also like an invisible giant wave pressing towards the other party with all its might. If it is an ordinary nightmare beast, even if it has the strength of the legendary peak, in front of the dragon power of the elemental young dragon, who is above all creatures, I am afraid it will have to hide as far as possible.
However, the owner of this nightmare beast is the Sanctuary-level Knight of Damnation, Rodhart. The Knight of Damnation is known precisely because his existence is a challenge to the laws of the world, which gives him the pride to defy all authority. Although the dragon power of the elemental dragon was close to the level of the guardian dragon, it only aroused the infinite anger of the Nightmare King even more.
"Roar!" With an angry roar, the Nightmare King's momentum suddenly skyrocketed several times, as if he was about to break through the gate of the Sanctuary at this moment. The boiling and tumbling black flames, emitting a terrifying aura of death, instantly gathered countless dark magic, and swept towards the petite figure of the elemental dragon like a tide.
One is a descendant of the dragon who guards the dragon's dream, and the other is the Nightmare King who is just one step away from stepping into the Sanctuary, these two powerful beings who stand at the top of Anriel's world have launched a terrifying fierce battle over this ruined battlefield.
And on the ground, the team that came with the elemental dragon Xiaohua also stopped moving forward in front of an impassable barrier. The mage group composed of forty Holy Death Knights and forty archmages is definitely something that no one dares to underestimate in the Light Wind Plains. However, here, just more than fifty death knights stood in their way like a moat.
Those Holy Death Knights, both in terms of coordination and individual strength, were completely incomparable to the Death Knights of Rodhart. If it weren't for the ability to manipulate the divine power, I'm afraid that in the first confrontation alone, more than half of them would have been killed. As for the mage group of the Tower of Twilight, compared with the Death Knights at this time, the tacit cooperation that they have always thought they were proud of is simply unsightly. Fortunately, the Holy Death Knights were on the periphery, otherwise this group of magicians would have only been slaughtered wantonly.
No one knows what kind of horror the Death Knights once swept across the Plains of Light Wind. But the hundreds of death knights in front of him, who had been sleeping for hundreds of years, did suddenly bring great danger to everyone on Lin Li's side.
The vampire Nophil was one of the first servants to follow Lin Li, and stepped into the legendary realm by sucking the blood of the green dragon in the lair of the Hyga Mountains. Although the level of the green dragon is relatively low among the dragon clan, the blood of the green dragon still has extraordinary power, which makes Nofil still have a considerable advantage in all aspects compared to vampires of the same level even after stepping into the legendary realm.
Vampires have always been known for their speed, and are known as natural assassins, and Nophil's speed is even more incomparable to that of vampires of the same level. When he exerts his speed to the extreme, his body is like a black lightning bolt that constantly flashes and jumps, making it difficult to really catch him.
However, the Assassins were obsessed with stealth, waiting for an opportunity to move, and fleeing as soon as they missed. Lightning-fast speed is important to an Assassin, but what affects the strength of an Assassin is the way he fights, and having an Assassin face off against the enemy is obviously not a suitable way for an Assassin to fight.
