At night, in the dwarf village.
The dwarves who were originally stationed on the guard towers inside the village returned to the camp to rest, and were replaced by elves who had better visibility and stronger detection capabilities at night.
Necromancers like to attack at night, and both dwarves and elves know this. Compared to the bright day, defense should be strengthened at night.
With the help of the elves, the first few attacks of the necromancer were repelled one after another.
During this period of time, the Necromancer seemed to be completely silent and did not launch any attacks on the dwarf villages, but both the dwarves and the elves knew that this was just a sign before a more powerful attack came.
Perhaps the dwarves in the village are still worried about being unable to resist the more powerful necromancer, but the elves on the guard tower have received the news. As long as they hold on for a few more days, the powerful court mage will arrive here and establish time and space inside the village. Gate to help the dwarves and ordinary people here evacuate.
Continuous pampering and a long period without fighting have caused the top elf clan to lose their keen sense of war.
The elves failed to anticipate the start of this war in time. Although necromancers had previously attacked villages in Eli, the elves were convinced that this was just a petty fight at the apprentice level.
No matter how many signs are revealed, most elves still do not believe that the war will come and still maintain the original life trajectory. Even if a few elves with foresight have raised this point many times, it is of no avail.
It wasn't until the Necromancers attacked the towns on the border of Eli one after another that the elves were convinced that war was coming. This also made the entire elven royal family feel severely offended.
Even if the elves quickly organized a counterattack, they also lost the best opportunity to guide the border residents to evacuate.
There are necromancers everywhere around the current border, and it will be extremely dangerous to guide the residents to evacuate. But these elves on the sentry tower are convinced that once the court mage comes here, they will be able to drive away these necromancers on the border.
Although they were on guard in the long night, the elves on the sentry tower did not have any distractions, nor did they have any conversations, but focused on paying attention to the surrounding situation.
At this time, a collision of weapons appeared in the ears of the elves on the sentry tower, and these elves looked in the direction of the sound.
In front, two figures were engaged in a fierce battle. One was wearing single clothes and holding an iron sword in his hand. His body flashed, bringing out countless sword lights, while the other was wearing a black robe and was facing this man. The swordsman waved his claws one after another.
There are many traces of undead creatures surrounding these two figures.
The undead creatures were obviously helping the men in black robes to attack the swordsmen on the other side. Through this situation, the elves on the guard tower instantly confirmed the camps of the two parties.
At this time, the swordsman held the weapon and raised the sword at the same time. In the process of dodging, the opponent's face under the black robe was completely exposed to the elves on the sentry tower.
Due to their excellent eyesight, the elf on the sentry tower recognized at a glance that the man in black robe was a vampire through the features on his face.
During the period of time that the elf confirmed, the battle between the vampire and the swordsman obviously changed. Under the vampire's full attack, the swordsman was temporarily unable to resist, and many blood marks appeared on his body.
As the vampire's attack struck again, seeing that the swordsman had no choice but to thrust out his sword to counterattack, a magic arrow shot at the vampire from the sentry tower.
In order to avoid the magic arrow, the vampire in front of the swordsman instantly turned into a black mist, and then countless bats rushed towards the swordsman.
The swordsman swung the sword in his hand one after another, and with the flash of sword light, he killed many bats in an instant. But there were so many bats around, and coupled with the fast flying speed, there were still a large number of bats gathered around the swordsman.
From the sentry tower, another fireball was shot over in time. The explosion caused by the fireball killed a large number of bats in an instant.
At the same time, the impact caused by the fireball explosion also made the swordsman safely out of the bat's attack range.
Due to being attacked by magic one after another, the remaining bats did not continue to attack the swordsman, but quickly flew back and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
After the bat left, the swordsman did not choose to chase the bat, but quickly killed the surrounding undead creatures.
Under the swordsman's attack, the surrounding zombies were unable to resist and were killed instantly. During the battle, the swordsman showed his superb swordsmanship.
And this scene was completely seen by the elves on the sentry tower.
During the swordsman's battle, although the elves on the sentry tower chose to help the swordsman fight against the vampire, these elves did not know the origin of the swordsman himself.
At this time, seeing the swordsman's swordsmanship, these elves' doubts were dispelled. In their impression, it was impossible for a necromancer to possess such superb swordsmanship.
It didn't take long for the swordsman to kill the surrounding undead creatures.
As the last undead creature fell to the ground, the swordsman exhausted all his strength. The sword blade in his hand was stuck on the ground, he supported the iron sword with his hand, and began to breathe rapidly.
While breathing, blood dripped down the swordsman's side. During the original fight against the vampire, although the elves on the sentry tower came to help in time, the swordsman was still seriously injured.
In front of the elves on the sentry tower, the swordsman quickly sat down, then tore off a strip of cloth from his clothes and began to bandage the wounds on his body.
During the bandaging process, due to his reckless movements, a large amount of blood flowed out from the wound scratched by the vampire on the swordsman's body, but the swordsman said nothing and just tied the wound tightly with cloth.
During the whole process, the elf on the guard tower said nothing and just stood there and observed. Although none of the elves asked the swordsman aloud, the expressions on their faces undoubtedly showed that they were somewhat intolerable.
After simply treating the wound, the swordsman stood up, came to the place where the battle was originally held, and gathered the surrounding arrows in his hands one by one.
The swordsman placed a handful of arrows at the entrance of the village, and at the same time nodded to the elf on the sentry tower paper to express his gratitude.
Then, the swordsman turned around and tried to walk towards the dark forest.
The direction chosen by the swordsman was exactly where the vampire left.
"Wait a moment!"
At this time, seeing the swordsman trying to leave, the elf on the sentry tower finally spoke up and shouted these words to the swordsman's back.
