"Hey." Oz waved the shield in his hand and directly knocked away a skeleton warrior who tried to attack him. Then he roared, put the shield in his hand firmly on his shoulder, and then moved forward at full speed. Launched a short charge, directly opened a passage among a large group of skeleton warriors, and rushed into Franco and others who were also members of the Wind Mercenary Group, who were surrounded by skeleton warriors.
"Oz, you..." I don't know whether it was because of tiredness or being moved, but Franco, the deputy leader of the Wind Mercenary Group who was surrounded, couldn't even speak. He and several companions around him were now all Carrying large or small wounds on their bodies, both physical strength and willpower have been weakened to the extreme. It can be said that if Oz hadn't rushed in to rescue them, maybe these mercenaries of the Wind Mercenary Group wouldn't have been able to survive for another minute.
"You shouldn't have come." Franco finally said what he was thinking: "Your family originally lived in the slums. It only takes a few minutes to leave the city, let alone come here to die. Don't forget Now you have a wife and a lovely daughter..."
"I will not abandon my companions." Oz interrupted Franco before he could finish his words: "Now follow me to the west, and remember not to fall behind." After Oz said this Then, he waved the pure steel battle ax in his hand vigorously, and hit the shield of his left hand hard with the handle of the axe, making a clear and loud sound. Then Oz let out a roar and killed him in the direction where he came from. Lanna and the others originally thought that they were certain to die, but now that Oz had rescued them, their morale was naturally boosted, and they followed him and started fighting hard.
Almost all of the people surrounding Franco and the others were skeleton warriors. This kind of undead creature converted from the bones of humanoid creatures was almost the lowest level of existence. Their individual combat power could not even match that of an ordinary human warrior. But these Undead creatures that exist in another "life form" do not feel tired at all. They can fight continuously without considering morale and supply issues, and even if it is just an ordinary necromancer, the mana is roughly equivalent to that of an intermediate magician. They can summon dozens of them at once, and only need to spend a very small amount of mana to control them to fight. Therefore, the skeleton warriors can easily form a numerical advantage, and then slowly tire out their enemies.
Facing the disgusting piles of bones, Oz's state of mind was not affected at all. He calmly rushed to the front of the entire formation, killing a bloody path for his companions behind him, even if he left Ryan and Faras. They, but Oz still never gave up on his hard training. Even though he had his own daughter, he still maintained strong physical strength, and his martial arts became more and more proficient due to these years of training. Those skeleton warriors had no way of affecting him at all.
When Franco and the others recovered some of their strength and were able to protect Oz's flanks and behind, Oz simply hung the shield on his back again, and once again swung two pure steel battle axes, like a ball. Like a whirlwind, he forcibly opened a passage among the large swaths of undead warriors. Any enemy standing in front of him was turned into pieces by the two battle axes.
In just thirty minutes, Oz, Franco and the others managed to clear two streets. It was less than 500 meters away from Oz's home and only 5 minutes away from the only west gate of Sea Breeze City. Of course. This refers to the normal walking time. Now the undead army suddenly launched an attack on Seawind City. Oz himself did not know whether they had occupied the city gate and blocked the only escape route in the city.
"Hungry." A vague voice came into Oz's ears, and then a familiar smell wafted into Oz's nose, causing him to immediately stop moving forward because he was already sensitive to the sound. The help that came with this sound and this smell was just as Oz expected. After the inarticulate sound sounded, the skeleton warriors surrounding Oz to block him seemed to fade away like water, and they were a bloated mass. A huge creature appeared in front of Oz and the others from the corner of the street ahead.
"God of light, what is that?" Franco cried out. He had never seen this kind of undead creature assembled from multiple human corpses, but looking at the whole group of bloated undead creatures stretched out The sight of five arms holding various weapons, as well as the bones and internal organs protruded from its body due to decay, was enough to make the deputy leader of the Gale Wind Mercenary Group vomit on the spot.
"Be careful, this guy is very strong. I have killed a few of them in the past. He is very difficult to mess with." Oz warned in a low voice, then took off the shield from behind and put it in front of his chest. Then he carefully looked at the assembled monster right in front of him.
"Meat, fresh meat." Several more vague voices sounded, and then the door of the shop next to the street turned into pieces flying around. Another assembled monster also appeared after leaving a big hole. Next to Oz and the others, two identical assembled monsters also appeared on the side and behind Oz.
Oz's heart began to sink. Although his current strength was far greater than when he took the adventure with Ryan, he still did not have the confidence to kill such an assembled monster independently. Now he was suddenly surrounded by four assembled monsters. Oz Knowing that it would be impossible for him to escape today, fortunately, he asked his wife to hold their daughter and leave early in the morning, and asked her to escape to Cassano. Calculated, she has already escaped It’s been more than ten kilometers. As long as the mother and daughter find Ryan, I believe this former companion will take good care of them.
"Long time no see, Oz." Bailey, wearing a black robe, appeared on the roof of a house next to the street with his hands behind his back. He looked down at his companion who had participated in the Royal Athletic Competition with Ryan, and he had mixed feelings in his heart. , and Oz, who heard his voice, raised his head and looked carefully for a long time, but because the sky was too dark, there was no way to identify Bailey's identity, not to mention that Bailey now almost had his own body replaced. Both his voice and appearance were completely different from before. Even if he looked closely face to face, Oz would probably not be able to recognize that the person in front of him was Bailey, the arrogant magic genius in the imperial capital at that time.
"Do you recognize me? Who are you?" Oz asked two questions in one breath, but the aloof Oz did not speak. He waved his hand casually and said softly: "Keep him and kill the rest." Bar."
As soon as Bailey finished speaking, the four assembled monsters immediately made greedy sounds and rushed towards Oz and the others without hesitation. Oz's face changed drastically. He was about to face a assembled monster and fight them desperately. , suddenly my ankle tightened, and it was already tightly wrapped around something.
Oz glanced down and saw countless dense branches winding up his thigh like a long snake. Before he could react, those branches had completely wrapped around Oz's lower body. , and then a strong force surged up, hanging Oz upside down in the air.
Oz struggled desperately, and he even used the sharp tomahawk to split the branches at all costs. However, those plant branches were extremely hard for some reason. Oz's ax could directly split wood stakes as thick as his arms. But I can't make even a tiny mark on the surface of these branches.
"No." Oz, who was on his head and feet, watched the assembled monsters effortlessly tear apart Franco and the others, then grabbed the broken limbs still dripping with blood and stuffed them into his mouth, and let out an earth-shattering cry. Roaring, if his body was not tied up by those plant branches, even if he wanted to commit suicide, it would be impossible. Oz could not wait to rush towards those ugly monsters and die with them.
Unfortunately, Oz could do nothing. His only choice was to close his eyes in pain, but the howls of Franco and the others before they died could still be heard in his ears. The feeling of powerlessness was like a plague. Devouring Oz's heart, two lines of blood and tears slowly flowed out of his eyes. When he returned to Seawind City, he was invited by Franco to join the Gale Mercenary Group, and he was cared for by Franco and others over the years. Every bit of it reappeared in Oz's mind. Now Oz hated himself extremely. Why did he not continue to follow Ryan, but chose to retire? Otherwise, he must have enough strength to protect his wife and daughter. Friends, instead of being so weak,
Soon, Oz, who lost his freedom, was dragged away by a dozen skeleton warriors. This was specially arranged by Bailey. He hoped that his teacher Nicholas could turn this half-dead human warrior into another dark creature, so that when Bailey When Ray met Ryan again, he could witness with his own eyes the guy he was jealous of was in a dilemma.
Bailey looked up at the rising sun, and his heart was full of expectations: "Lian, who has always claimed that he will never abandon his companions, I really like your expression when I saw Oz turning into a dark creature. , I think this day will come soon, please don’t let me down.”

"Ah." Ryan stretched and got up from the marching camp energetically. He and Victor talked about a lot of things last night, whether it was the management of the territory or the pursuit of magical power, etc., all of which benefited Ryan. A lot, which also made him feel in an excited state. Even though Ryan only slept for less than 2 hours last night, he still didn't feel any tiredness.
After enjoying breakfast, Ryan was walking in the busy military camp, and suddenly felt an uneasy feeling in his heart. He was stunned for a moment, and stood there with his head sideways, thinking repeatedly about Orlando's arrangement, hoping to find out what made him uneasy. The reason is that this time Ryan came to the northern battlefield and only brought Allen one more person. Cassano's main force was not moved at all. Coupled with Ghalib's presence, it can be said to be very stable. In the Imperial Capital, there are With Falas and Red in charge, plus a large number of cardinals and royal magisters, even if the legendary strongman Catherine personally takes action, it will be enough to support Victor's return. Orlando has already considered these aspects repeatedly. , naturally it is impossible to leave any flaws,
Ryan smiled at himself, feeling that he was still too young, so he couldn't calm down in the face of the war, so that he felt like this mess. He quickened his pace and soon arrived at Orlando's military tent. As the whole The top military commander of the Alliance Army, General Orlando, will announce the military deployment of this main decisive battle today, and the outcome of this great battle will also determine the future fate of the Imperial Capital, the Holy Alliance, and even the entire human race.
