"Why are there so many undead? Is this a trap prepared for us?" Philip turned his head and glared at Bonny.
"Philip, don't be impatient, this is not specially prepared for us." Robin Jun murmured with a serious expression on his face, "The situation encountered by the Amn cavalry is no different from what we are now, and the undead do not want to leak the news The original intention has never changed. They should have tried their best at that time, but they still failed to intercept Boni and others... "
"Robin, do you think that these undead just came here just like us?" Stark had an incredulous look on his face. Although he didn't know the nearby terrain, but it was only five or six hours before Bonny escaped, so it was hard to imagine how these undead came from the Twin Towers, unless they could fly.
"Bonny Knight, what was this valley originally used for?" Robin ignored Stark's question, grabbed Bonny, and asked eagerly.
"This is just an abandoned place. No one has paid attention to this valley since the founding of Amn!" Boni's face was ashen, looking at the undead army in front of him, he slowly drew out the long sword at his waist, "Sorry, this time it's I have killed you, but I will try my best to open a gap for you. You can escape as much as you can, as long as you report the information here to the nearby Amn Guard."
"Abandoned land?! Why is it called an abandoned land instead of a wild valley? What was abandoned here?" Robin's eyes lit up, and he asked relentlessly.
"Abandoned... I don't know, I've only been here once before, and there's nothing in it except for a ruin." Bonnie said with a wry smile, "I know what you're thinking, but that ruin is not a big building. There is no underground part, just some scattered stone platforms and stone steps, no one knows its function, it looks like a small altar."
"The altar? Can it be repaired?" A cold voice came from the team. Everyone looked back and found that it was Idriya, the female knight who had never been very gregarious, a follower of Ms. Lovita.
"I didn't say it was an altar, I just said it looks a bit like it." Boni sighed and continued, "The history of that relic is very far away, hundreds of years? Thousands of years? Anyway, no one knows what age it was left over from." There is no record about it. Believe me, no one will know what it is like, and it is impossible to restore it, just like the pile of rocks."
Hearing Boni's words, everyone couldn't help feeling depressed, but Elder Loyle of the dwarves joked optimistically, "Maybe we can talk to these undead."
"What are you talking about? Maybe if we send them a few dwarf blacksmiths, the undead will let us live!" The female knight curled her lips, unloaded the big cloth bag behind her back, and when she opened it, it turned out to be a huge double-edged sword. Tomahawk.
This double-edged battle ax is made of metal as a whole. It is about 1.5 meters long with a handle. The wide ax face can almost be used as a shield. In addition to the sharp edges on both sides, the handle and tip of the ax are both conical, and the tip is shimmering with cold light, making it look extremely "savage".
"Hey, our dwarves didn't provoke you, Lavita's letter..." Lorraine, the preparatory prince of the Xuefeng dwarves, muttered with some dissatisfaction, but before he finished speaking, he immediately stared at Ide with his eyes wide open. The giant battle ax in Rhea's hand.
Others were also a little surprised. Everyone thought that the big cloth bag behind her was for penance. Lauvita is a goddess of abuse. Her followers have been carrying a heavy object to abuse themselves. That's normal. I didn't expect it to be such a "cruel" thing.
"What are you looking at? This is a family heirloom!" Idriya gave everyone a cold look, pulled the fiery red ponytail in front of her, bit her teeth, and walked to the front of the team with an ax in both hands. Standing together, they glared fiercely at the three death knights. Their sturdy appearance made all the males in the team sweat.
Kelly glanced at the female compatriots around her, slightly surprised, but when she saw the murder weapon in the female knight's hand, a smile appeared on her pretty face, and she nodded towards her.
"Robin, we should decide what to do, break out backwards, or continue to go deep into the valley." Stark asked lightly. Up to now, the big man who has been carrying a heavy burden has put aside his distracting thoughts, and his expression looks like Calm.
Robin gritted his teeth, feeling a rare hesitation in his heart. Despite being encircled, there is still a slight difference between the front and rear encirclement of the undead. There are even more siege behind, accounting for 60% of the total. I really don't know how those undead got around the cliff. The most important thing is that there are three death knights behind, which are genuine high-level undead.
It stands to reason that there is nothing to think about at this point. This is a gourd-shaped closed valley, and the only entrance and exit can only be reached by breaking through the original road, but Robin understands why Stark wants to move forward.
The way these undead appeared was too strange. They could not have entered the valley from the outside, but seemed to emerge from the valley. In this way, unknown changes may have taken place in this valley, maybe there is a road opened by the undead...
It's just that this choice will determine the fate of everyone, and Robin really dare not take the risk.
Break out backwards, or continue forward
Breaking through backwards is doomed to suffer heavy losses. With the entanglement of three death knights and so many undead cannon fodder, even if the apostles play all their cards, the result will not be too good. Except for Kelly, no one is sure to survive. As for the plot elves and dwarves, they will definitely be wiped out.
If we continue to move forward, let's not talk about whether there is the passage that Robin imagined. Even if there is, it may not necessarily be a way of life. Ninety percent of the time it may lead to a restricted area occupied by the undead, and the hope is also slim.
"Come on, don't you want to see the so-called forbidden zone of life before you die? I'm very curious!" A clear voice suddenly came from the team, everyone looked up and found that Qin Lun was watching with a smile on his face. They said, "What's more, the real mastermind behind the command of the undead has not yet appeared. Elder Loyle is right. It's not like we don't have the opportunity to negotiate."
Robin's eyes lit up. Indeed, death knights also have the ability to command low-level undead, but this ability is not as powerful as necromancers and liches. It is impossible for the thousands of low-level undead here to be commanded by these three forward death knights. There should be necromancers or liches hidden in the valley.
The most important point is that the master messengers of these undead changed their behavior for thousands of years, intending to walk out of the Cloud and Mist Mountains. Regardless of whether this behavior is spontaneous or instigated by outsiders, at least they already have a certain degree of desire.
The undead with consciousness and desire will naturally no longer be indifferent to the fall. As long as they can capture the main messenger, then everyone will have the weight to negotiate.
Seeing the change in Robin's expression, Qin Lun knew that she had made up her mind, so she grinned slightly and quietly retreated to Elisine's side.
"Miss Kelly..." Robin looked up and shouted.
"I've heard it, you guys go, I'll stay and die!" Kelly said without looking back.
"We'll stay too!" Boni Knight waved his hand, and walked towards Kelly with the remaining seven or eight cavalry with a determined face.
At the same time, everyone who understood also started the final preparations.
…
"Nicole, Philip, you take the other members and go with Robin." Stark sighed and turned to Kelly resolutely.
"No, I'll stay! Don't mention it for the time being, Mrs. Kelly, you'll have the chance to come back only with me here." Nicole bit her lip and said palely.
"Nicole..." Philip cried out.
"Philip, you have also seen Stark's performance along the way. No matter what you think, I now recognize his position as the leader." Nicole said seriously, "I don't want to lose another leader. That kind of experience happened once. enough."
"Then I'll stay..."
"No, the remaining members need a leader." Nicole and Stark shook their heads at the same time, "You must go with them."
"Okay, come back alive, or I'll dismantle the fortress!" Philip clenched his teeth, said a word through his teeth, and resolutely turned and left.
…
"Your Excellency Feral, is it?" A gentle voice suddenly came from behind Qin Lun.
"Master Angelo?" Seeing the figure walking behind him, Qin Lun slightly raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Can you take my apprentice El?" Angelo narrowed his eyes and looked at Qin Lun meaningfully.
"You want to stay too?" Qin Lun's eyes flashed, slightly surprised.
"They are all good, but there are no legal professions left. They can't stop so many undead, not to mention the impact of the three death knights is very strong, and they need a mage to slow them down." Angelo seemed not at all. Without worrying about his own safety, he smiled and shook his head.
"Oh? That makes sense!" Qin Lun touched his nose, the cold light in his eyes flashed away, and asked in a low voice, "But why me?"
"In addition to being a red-robed mage, I also dabble in astrology. I just did divination in secret." Angelo was silent for a while, looked deeply at Qin Lun, and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "The result surprised me. It seems that El can only survive if he follows you. It seems that you have a lot of secrets..."
"Secret? Each other!" Qin Lun's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile, "This kind of divination is only about one person's fate... It seems that this child is very important to you!"
"It's just a little effort for your Excellency, isn't it?" Angelo hesitated, then took out a delicate metal box from his arms and stuffed it into Qin Lun's hands, "If the child survives, the contents inside will be used as a reward , only El knows the unsealed spell."
"Take one more person out? Deal!" Qin Lun glanced at the metal box engraved with magic runes in his hand, and stuffed it into his arms with a smile.
Qin Lun was indeed not afraid of falling in the valley of the undead. Before he entered the world of Toril, Firework Rand, who was also one of the murderers, gave him a "companion card". The "travel card" of Hunter World can bring all the people within a radius of 20 meters to a designated place they have been to, or a designated creature they have seen.
The world of Toril is a world that is at the peak of demons, and it also has many outer domain interfaces, and it does not lack the laws of time and space. Qin Lun has seen this companion card, and it can also be used here. It's just that without the addition of the rules of the hunter's world, he can only use his own energy to activate this card. Besides himself, he can probably bring several people with him.
Of course, even Qin Lun himself couldn't determine the number of people, it could be as many as four or five, and as few as one or two people.
However, he will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary. Anyway, his goal in Toril has been achieved, as long as there are people in the fortress team who survive, they can report his performance to "Tianfu".
…
"Elder Leuer, do you have to stay?" the young dwarf asked with a sad face.
"Lorraine, you have to remember that we dwarves never shirk our responsibilities. Those people saved us, and now it's our turn to repay!" The old dwarf hugged the somewhat bewildered young dwarf, pushed him away, and raised his sword. Ax and the remaining dwarves walked towards Kelly's broken position, "Go, descendants of King Dustin, go to Mithral Hall and start your own legend."
…
"Prince Mileras, take care, our time is up!" Except for a companion who went back to report the news near Mill Forest, the remaining three elf rangers bowed to the sun elf prince, "The next step is the ancient Lu, sorry we can no longer be by your side."
"Well, maybe we'll meet again soon!" Mileras smiled easily, but there was a trace of sadness in his eyes.
…
Kelly turned her head to look at Idriya beside her, and suddenly said with a smile, "Go with them, with your impact, they will break through the interception from behind more smoothly, and I won't have to wait too long. "
Idriya hesitated for a moment, then nodded to Kelly, picked up the big ax and stepped back, "Okay then, don't die, I'll buy you a drink later!"
"Hahaha, I like this chick, she looks a lot like my old sister!" Kelly laughed boldly with her hips on her hips, her towering chest couldn't help shaking up and down.
…
It didn't take long for everyone to say goodbye, and the silent undead seemed to have completed their final mobilization.
Three death knights rode their horses and walked in front of the undead, like an ancient general conducting a military parade before a battle. They looked back at the humans, elves, and dwarves in front of them. The cold eyes under the iron mask seemed to be pity for the fate of these living people.
Afterwards, the death knights lost interest, raised their sabers high and waved forward, and the undead behind them flooded into the crowd like a tide...
