Chapter 924: Truly Wake Up
Fortunately, although Lin Li was a little tempted at that time, in addition to being afraid of the sleeping Rodhart, he was more reluctant to bear the natural magic realm formed by the Ice Pole and Red Flame.
Of course, even now, with Lin Li's current strength, he is many times stronger than he was at the beginning, but the current situation does not seem to be much better. The permafrost blade in Rodhart's hand, every time it was swung, it made Lin Li break out in a cold sweat, and every time it made Lin Li feel like he was hovering between life and death.
Lin Li's hair was soaked with sweat, and although there were no scars on his body, his image still looked extremely embarrassed. Each of Rodhart's swords was aimed at a lethal position, and if there were really any scars on Lin Li's body, he would probably not be far from death.
Although several attacks were dodged by the other party, Rodhart's pale face still did not show any emotion, and the soul fire in his eyes seemed to be solidified, without even a trace of obvious fluctuations. Rodhart's movements did not pause in the slightest, and after a sword missed, another lightning-like sword stabbed towards Lin Li.
A lightning-like sword, it was not an exaggeration, but it was really like a lightning bolt slashing through this dark cavern. Lin Li's heart, which was already carrying, almost jumped out of his stomach, and the Sun King's scepter in his hand was pointed out again and again, instantly casting more than a dozen layers of defensive magic in front of him. At the same time, he even injected spiritual power into the domain robe on his body, fully stimulating the spatial power on the robe, and trying his best to distort the space around him.
"Whew!" A sword light swept past Lin Li's cheeks, cutting off a strand of sweat-soaked hair, and shooting straight into the rock wall of the cave behind. I don't know how far away the underground palace is, but after that sword light shot into the rock wall, it directly opened a skylight on the rock wall, and a ray of sunlight actually penetrated from the outside. Cold sweat broke out irrepressibly again, and Lin Li wondered if he would become a human because of the constant cold sweat before he was killed by Rodhart.
Fortunately, Lin Li's body had this realm robe infused with space power by the Immortal King, otherwise he would have died a few times without knowing how many times. However, Lin Li knew even more in his heart that it was impossible to ensure his safety all the time with this realm robe alone. Lin Li didn't have much control over the power of space, and now he was only forcibly stimulating the power of the domain robe, and he couldn't do it to the point of manipulating the power of space at will. This causes every time he distorts space, there are traces to escape, and once Rodhart detects the law, I am afraid that he will not be far from death.
After Rodhart stabbed out that sword, just like the previous swords, he didn't look at the result of that sword at all, but continued to wave the eternal frozen blade with his hand seemingly very casually, and the black flame condensed by the death aura on his body didn't even shake at all, but it was another arc sword light more than ten meters long that swept towards Lin Li's side.
Fortunately, Lin Li had already been prepared, and he was not complacent because he had dodged the sword just now, and at the moment when his hair was cut off, he had already activated the power of the domain robe again. Seeing the sword light more than ten meters long sweeping over his waist, the figure of Lin Li was like a reflection in the water, distorting and dissipating after a while, and on the rock wall behind him, there was once again a light groove more than ten meters long.
In the face of Rodhart's understatement attack, Lin Li had to deal with it with all his strength every time, and as for the counterattack, he didn't have to think about it at all. Not to mention that Lin Li didn't have the strength to fight back, even if he really found an opportunity to cast a few legendary spells, he couldn't pose the slightest threat to Rodhart.
However, in the process of dodging, Lin Li gradually felt that something was wrong. Lin Li had seen the powerhouses of the Sacred Domain make a move, and although Rodhart showed the strength of the Sacred Domain-level, he seemed to be a little stiff in his attack methods, which seemed to be closer to an instinctive performance. But that's not the point, what really matters is that Lin Li, as the attacked side, has clearly felt that this situation in Rodhart is gradually fading.
Thinking of the solidified soul fire in Rodhart's eyes, a terrible guess suddenly flashed in Lin Li's mind, could it be that Rodhart, who has now driven himself into a corner, has not really woken up from his slumber? And as the battle progressed, the changes in Rodhart were actually a manifestation of gradual awakening?
Lin Li was frightened by his own thoughts, if Rodhart was already so strong before he woke up at this time, then what would it be like when he really woke up. Now, in order to dodge Rodhart's attack, Lin Li can already be said to have done his best, if this is not all of Rodhart's strength, then ...... As the battle progressed, this terrible guess in Lin Li's heart was gradually verified by the facts. Rodhart's fighting style is undergoing obvious changes, from the initial instinctive wielding of power, gradually adding more skills that make Lin Li difficult to deal with. The most obvious thing is that the method of distorting space of the domain robe, which had helped Lin Li get out of danger many times, was gradually losing its effect in Rodhart's attacks.
At the same time, several other battlefields are also changing with the awakening of Rodhart. Those death knights, in the siege of Lin Li's many subordinates, no longer only relied on seamless cooperation, but began to use more subtle tactics, which made the people on Lin Li's side, who were already at a disadvantage, fall into an even more difficult situation.
However, this is not the worst case scenario, Lin Li knows in his heart that once Rodhart really wakes up, it will be the real desperate moment. Moreover, looking at the changes of Rodhart and the Death Knights, I'm afraid Rodhart is not far from a real awakening. But even if he knew that the situation was deteriorating, Lin Li was powerless to do anything at this time, and could only hope that he and his subordinates could support himself for a while longer.
Finally, Rodhart suddenly stopped attacking Lin Li, lowered his head slightly, making it difficult to see his face, just standing quietly in mid-air, the permafrost blade in his hand pointed diagonally to the ground. The crimson cloak behind him, which was originally flying in the wind, slowly fell, and the black flames condensed by the aura of death also stopped rolling, as if frozen by an invisible force.
And among the various warbands on the battlefield, the death knights who besieged Lin Li's men also suddenly stopped all attacks, and one by one pierced the cavalry spears in their hands into the sky, and looked up at Rodhart in mid-air, as if they were paying tribute to their king with the most noble knightly salute.
The battlefield was instantly silent, and even the people on this side did not take advantage of the empty space where the Death Knights had stopped to fight back. Of course, this is not because they also have any respect for Rodhart, nor is it out of any morality, but this solemn atmosphere makes them dare not act rashly in the slightest.
"Hehe," a chuckle, I don't know whether it was mockery or self-deprecation, Rodhart, who lowered his head, said in a low voice, "I finally woke up, how should I thank you, nameless boy?" ”
Rodhart's voice was soft, but it was exceptionally clear on the dead battlefield. Although he already knew everything that was happening in front of him, when he heard Rodhart say it himself, Lin Li still felt a little hairy in an instant, and an irrepressible chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Lin Li didn't answer Rodhart's words, because he knew that the other party was not asking him at all, but just watched the other party's every move with full vigilance.
"Hahahaha!" Rodhart suddenly raised his head and laughed wildly, and the silent black flames around him also regained their vitality in an instant, and erupted ten times more violently.
Lin Li, who was closest to Rodhart, almost fell from mid-air at the moment when the violent aura swept in. Lin Li, who stabilized his figure, held the Sun King's scepter tightly, and looked at Rodhart, who looked like he was crazy, but he still didn't dare to relax his vigilance.
Rodhart laughed wildly for a long time, and finally the laughter gradually subsided, but he cursed loudly as if mocking: "Ridiculous, my dearest brother, you are really stupid, will I repent for the lives of those ants!" From the moment I set foot on this road, those ants can only become my stepping stone to the top, which is the only value of their lives! ”
After Rodhart became a Knight of Damnation, he led the Death Knights to sweep through the Plains of the Breeze, reducing the population of the Plains by one-third. Although the population of the Breeze Plain was small at that time, there were more than 100,000 people, and if you really want to talk about it, I'm afraid that the great lord Osric, who is known as the butcher, is nothing more than that. It was with the souls of these hundreds of thousands of people that Rodhart successfully stepped into the Sanctuary and became the first Sanctuary-level Retribution Knight in the history of the Anriel world.
From Rodhart's self-talk, Lin Li could hear that Viren did not completely purify Rodhart at the beginning, and must have been deceived by his false confession. In fact, this can't be blamed on Viren, after all, he is a brother, but if there is a glimmer of hope, I am afraid he will not be willing to kill his brother with his own hands.
But the problem is, you Wei Lun is soft for a while, but you want Lao Tzu to swallow this bitter fruit, this is too fucking unfair! Understanding is understanding, but Lin Li also has a lot of resentment towards that prophet Viren in his heart.
After venting, Rodhart's spirit seemed to be a little normal, and he muttered something in an inaudible voice, and finally turned his gaze to Lin Li's body, and said: "How can I thank you, why don't you let your soul live forever with my soul fire." ”
I have long known that there can be no goodness with Rodhart, and Lin Li is not surprised by Rodhart's words. However, the words that Rodhart whispered before, although the voice was almost inaudible, and it was the language of the High Elves, it surprised Lin Li a lot, this Knight of Damnation who had not experienced the Dark Ages, was actually cursing the Immortal King!
Before Lin Li could figure out what was going on, Rodhart had already raised the Eternal Frozen Blade in his hand, and his figure suddenly flashed, stabbing Lin Li's heart with a sword. At the same time that Rodhart stabbed this sword, those death knights on the battlefield also put down their riding spears one after another, and launched a ferocious attack on everyone on the side again.
This time, it was very different from before, after Rodhart really woke up, the strength of these death knights seemed to have been increased several times at once. Their battle formations have become more flexible, their tactics have become more ingenious, and even the strength of individual individuals has been greatly improved. Under the siege of the Death Knights, the people who were already struggling to support themselves fell into a real desperate situation at this time, as if every second was hovering between life and death.
More and more obvious wounds began to appear on the massive body of the bone red dragon, and even the dragon's powerful defense seemed to be unable to stop the Death Knight's sharp spear. The Bone Red Dragon let out a fiery breath of dragon breath, but the two Death Knights who bore the brunt of it immediately erupted into a thick cloud of black smoke, and then the two Death Knights rushed out of the black mist with their rifles raised, stabbing straight into the Bone Red Dragon's eyes that were burning with soul fire.
The dragon breath of the bone red dragon was no less powerful than legendary magic, but it was resisted by the two death knights without dodging. In fact, it's not just dragon breath, the bone red dragon with ** is also no worse than the real dragon in terms of strength, whether it is the dragon claw that is enough to tear the earth, or the dragon tail that can tear off the mountain peak, the power on the death knights is greatly reduced at this time.
I have to say that under the various magic bonuses of Rodhart, the Knights of Damnation in the Sanctuary, these death knights are simply outrageously perverted in terms of magic and physical defense. Originally, everyone could also use some powerful attacks to force these death knights back, in exchange for some respite. And after Rodhart really woke up, almost all of these attacks were useless, and it was difficult to break through even the enemy's defenses, and the situation of everyone could be imagined.
The tide of death of Uy Farusi, as long as his magic power is not exhausted, is capable of summoning an endless army of the undead. And with his current strength, that huge magic power is enough to support the tide of death for a few days and nights, and it will not decay in the slightest. However, the terrifying army of the undead, in front of the Death Knight, was simply weak and pitiful. The three death knights, forming a simple triangular battle array, crushed them all the way unreasonably, and in the blink of an eye, they killed in front of the whirlpool gate, and the tide of death was forcibly dissipated.
Seeing the tide of death dissipate, Uyfarusi was anxious, but there was nothing he could do. He harnessed the Bone Dragon, and all of his energy was devoted to dealing with the Death Knight's attacks, and the Bone Dragon's body was already covered in spears and traces of dark erosion.
