Chapter 271: White Forest (3)
In the hazy night, Icabold and the others cautiously ran along the woods, and from time to time there were wandering zombie musket teams gathering here, but fortunately, there were not many of them, and they could not cause trouble to these people for the time being.
The Salvation Squad was followed by some zombies, but they quickly fell to the ground under the attack of Icabodd and Mills running back and firing cold arrows.
"This is where Caterina and the Death Knight live, and I think we need to get her out." Icabold said with his rifle behind his back, carrying a crossbow bolt in his hand.
The few of them were already very close to the location of Moloch, and the nearby church buildings and the Death Knight's house were good signposts.
The woods were silent, and the campfire in front of the house was the only light in the darkness, and the moon was obscured by the fog, and only the sound of each other's footsteps could be heard in the deep darkness.
The zombie musket team was thrown away by a few people running wildly, and they had not yet entered the range of the rifles, so Ikabird and the others were safe for the time being.
Just before that, Yi Huan managed to defeat the remaining enemy, the War Knights, and burned the zombie musketeers around him with a single fire.
Those zombies that don't enter the stream are just cannon fodder, their lethality may not be as dangerous as the voodoo zombies, and Yi Huan doesn't even need to be fierce, ordinary flames are enough to solve them.
Then, with the men's rifles clearing, they soon made their way to the place where Moloch had summoned the demon army, and the hut where Caterina might be was being built in their path.
Icabold, who is eager to save his wife, will not give up the opportunity to rescue Katarina, but he is doomed to disappointment. Yi Huan didn't feel any magic fluctuations in the room. Caterina is a witch. And wizards are always stored when their magic fluctuates, so ...... This can only mean that she has been transferred.
Probably with Morlock.
Icabold raised his crossbow and the others entered the room with guns and alertness, this is the territory of the Death Knight, although he is now imprisoned in the basement, but who knows if there will be anything dangerous in this room.
Looking at the group of people who cautiously touched the room, Yi Huan shook his head and did not say anything to stop it. Icabard's feelings for Caterina are deep, and even Yi Huan can see it.
Besides, this place is close to the location of Moloch, and the final decisive battle may be coming, thinking so, Yi Huan and Winnie stood quietly outside......
In inverse contrast to the salvation team formed by Icabold, it is Henry's side, who is not in good shape now, and has lost contact with the War Knights. As a result, his body was also damaged to a certain extent.
However, Icabold and the others continued unscathed, much to the displeasure of Moroch, who was holding the summoning ceremony.
"The third tree has burned. But those guys are still getting closer. Morlock turned the demon head with horns on its forehead and looked at Henry grimly.
Caterina was gagged and tied to a white tree behind her, and she was watching Henry and Moroch talk with wide eyes.
"I need you to delay them, go now." Moroch's blood-red eyes were full of indifference, and he gave the order without question.
But Henry, who received the order, couldn't believe it, his physical age was not young, and he was resting weakly at this time, and Moloch also saw it when he was cut off by Yi Huan when he was in his eyes, knowing what state he was in at this time.
Letting him delay those people now shows that Morlock has completely failed to care about his life.
"Father, how do they...... They ruined my armor and I was easily injured. Henry said pleadingly.
"You'll have to delay them." In the face of Henry's plea, Morlock did not hesitate at all, but still calmly repeated the order he had just said.
"I don't understand." Henry shook his head bitterly, he was very sad that Moloch would sacrifice himself so lightly, and he was also afraid of the new wizard who appeared next to the Witness, "I am the second knight, and you are willing to sacrifice me. ”
"There have been knights before you, and there will be knights after you." Morlock impatiently interrupted Henry's questioning, "Thank you for the opportunity to die for me." ”
"From today on, this is my world." It continued, "You'll find them at the Death Knight's quarters, now, go!" ”
With that, Morlock turned his head indifferently and continued to maintain his summoning ritual, while Henry, who was behind it, had a series of disbelief flashing in his eyes.
He is grateful to Mollock for saving him and taking him in, and Henry, who lost his father's love at Ikabold, has always regarded Mollock as another father.
No matter what it asked him to do, even if he knew that Moloch was a demon, Henry still had a glimmer of hope that the affection he had given might be rewarded in the end, even if it was only the tiniest of them.
But now it seems that this is impossible, Morlock has never taken him seriously, let alone regarded him as a son, and even the identity of a war knight is only cannon fodder that can be sacrificed at will.
Henry was in pain, even in despair, and his eyes were once again crossed with indifference and hatred, just as he had done with Icabard, who had never received a father's love in this world.
Whether it's Icabard, or Moroch, whatever the cause, whatever it is and whatever the race, the most important thing is only the result, only the result has been born.
"Father." Henry called again, probably the last time he would call Moloch that, and at the sound of his call, Moloch turned his head again and glared at Henry impatiently.
Seeing Moloch's expression, Henry nodded silently, "I will obey." He said, then glanced at Morlock again, his voice reverting to the same indifference he had as a war knight.
Use indifference to cover up his heart, which is also shrouded in indifference......
"She's not here." After turning around the whole house, several people finally found nothing, Icabold said with some annoyance, obviously Caterina is no longer here, there is nothing left here.
"Maybe she's been captured by Moloch." Mills sighed, at this time she could only think about the best, the chances of Caterina escaping were very small, she looked out the window, and the zombies could be seen looming through the bonfire, and they surrounded again, "We should go." (To be continued......)
