Card Alchemist

Chapter 106 Sinking Demon

It was not until the fish turned white in the east that the screams in the valley gradually stopped.

The thick smell of blood surrounded the camp, like a layer of dark clouds on the head, which made people breathless. The dark blood slowly flowed into the stream along the grassland, looking like a brown-red color from afar.

The students lowered their heads one by one. It was hard for them to imagine that the mercenaries who were laughing at themselves yesterday have now become cold corpses. The air is full of disgusting smells that come from their bodies. Even thousands of yards away from the valley, it is still impossible to avoid this pungent stench.

The Bimons trembled and shrank into a ball, and they also smelled this strange smell from the air. But for the slaves, the only thing they are worried about is the end of the change of master.

"Shir, what's going on? Who the hell are those sneakers? Mana asked in a low voice. They are so cruel and disgusting... I really doubt if they are human..."

All the students looked at Star, and they were eager to get an answer from the officer. Most of the students are just a group of ungrown children, and the killing last night made them shudder.

"I think many people still don't understand who the enemy we are about to meet is." Star motioned the students to sit down. I don't even know what the caravan was yesterday! I was just angry to see them abuse the slaves so simply, and I couldn't wait to rush up and kill each other.

"So now I'll tell you... why I stopped you... because those people are sent by our dearest archbishop. He didn't want us to complete the task, and he didn't want us to go back to Witherspoon alive. I once guessed that the enemy who could plunge the Knights Templar into a bitter battle was absolutely very dangerous. What happened last night verified the speculation. The enemy we are about to face is the demon from the abyss, and of course there may be a black knife from the back of the Holy See! If you are afraid of death, please leave here. We won't laugh at you... After all, everyone has the right to choose."

The students looked at each other for a while, and gradually there was a trace of riot. Under Star's gaze, the team was gradually divided into two regiments. To Sta's gratifying, there are only about 30 students who want to leave here. And he also noticed that those who were placed among the students by various families were also among them.

This is undoubtedly good news. If these people don't follow orders in the battle, it will be very troublesome.

"Then I'll start assigning tasks now..." Star looked at the group of students who were ready to leave. "Although you choose to leave, I won't blame you. I hope you can do me one last favor and send these Bimons back to the tribe. Caesar will lead you this way..."

"What, sir! I'm going to be with you, too. I'm not going to be a deserter!" Caesar shouted loudly. He waved the machete in his hand vigorously, and his eyes were covered with blood.

"What is Article 32 of the Knight Code!" Star asked sharply.

"Obey orders, sir!" Caesar straightened his waist and said loudly. But sir, I..."

"Because you are Bi Meng, that's why I assign such a task to you. Among these people, only you know the situation of the tribe. If you can successfully complete the task, come to me again... If I was still alive at that time." Star stared at Caesar. I want your answer!"

"Yes, sir! I swear that I will complete the task!"

"Okay, then get out of here now." Stabe turned his head to the remaining students. Allow me to salute you. It's not easy for you to pick up. But since you choose to follow me, I swear... I will bring each of you back to Witherspoon alive anyway.

"Shir, we are knights of the Holy See. He is a warrior of honor and the embodiment of heroism. We will not hesitate to cut off the thorns in front of us and let the pure blood spill the road behind us!" The students said loudly. For honor, for justice. The glory of God will always accompany us. Humility, honor, sacrifice, heroism, compassion, spirit, honesty and justice will run through the life of the judge knight.

Star nodded and took the crowd back to the valley again.

To confuse the caravan, Star had to leave the horses in the camp in the middle of the valley. It is still ten days away from the Death Forest. If you go on like this, it is easy for everyone to maintain a perfect combat state.

After returning to the valley, the students knew how cruel the enemy they would face was. The center of the valley is slightly lower than the surrounding area, and you don't notice much difference when you walk. But when he stepped into the valley, a deep blood depression had accumulated in the middle of the camp. The surrounding dead branches and leaves have been stained red by blood, emitting an incomparable fishy smell. Around the bloodshed, sharp wooden stakes were erected. Each one was wearing a human body, and the undried blood from the body slowly flowed to the ground along the stake and towards the blood depression in the center.

The person on the stake is not dead, and his body trembles at the edge of the pain.

The faces of the students turned white in an instant, and those who were inserted on the stakes were cruelly stripped of their skin, revealing ferocious muscles. It looks extremely apprehensive!

"This is the first wave of enemies we will face. They are sinking demons from the abyss. It is a very low existence in the level of demons, and it is a very weak demon. But for you... it's not that easy." Star kicked away the body of a sunken demon. They have three levels, sinking demons, sinking wizards and sinking blade demons.

"So what's the difference between them?" The students asked in a low voice.

"The one Desen caught last night was the sinking demon. Even an adult Bi Meng can easily kill him. A kind of low combat effectiveness and disgusting guy." Star pointed to the red corpse lying under his feet. He is a sinking wizard and has the ability to resurrect sinking demons. And the sinking blade can resurrect the sinking wizard!"

"Then can't we kill them?" Some of the students screamed.

"No, we can do this!" Star stepped on the sinking wizard's feet fiercely, and his head with a feather crown suddenly broke like a watermelon. The white brain suddenly splashed out a large area. Smash their heads, and there is nothing you can do to sink the wizard. There should be no trace of a sinking blade here, otherwise... ours will be more difficult."

"sir, we didn't find our horses here... I think those guys took them away." Mana said. So what should we do next?

"Duran, go to the periphery of the valley to see if there are horseshoe marks. We must find the horse, or we will miss the support of the Templars!" Star frowned.

Star turned his back and saw an acquaintance nailed to a stake not far away. It was a big earth goblin, and its wild boar was also peeled and hung on it like a sausage. It is the only creature that has not been peeled off. Perhaps this is due to the innate smell of the goblin to avoid its immediate death, but it has enjoyed more overnight torture than other humans.

"Help me... Please." The earth goin saw the coming Star and tried to make a call for help from his throat. It stretched out its hands tremblingly and tried to pull the Star coming towards him. My lord..."

"The archbishop has no one else to follow besides sending your caravan." Star ignored it. "If you answer me, maybe I will consider saving you. Let you avoid this kind of torture of life and death!"

"I'm not sent by the archbishop... Ah..." The earth gobion just wanted to defend itself, but Star's hand had been gently put on his shoulder. Although the movement was very slight, for it, the pain that ran through the body made it couldn't help screaming. I... said, my lord... your... hand."

Star took his hand away. I don't think you will be more patient than me, and I hope you can finish your words alive.

"The archbishop... sent three teams... the other two... they have left early, and now... in the death forest."

"All right." Star turned around and said, "Is there any enthusiastic guy who would like to give this guy a ride?"

"No! You said you were going to save me! You can't do this!" The earth spirit shouted in horror, and the broken body struggled with its last strength. But with the pain of his lower body, his voice gradually decreased.

"I was scared to death!" Desen rubbed the machete in his hand, "I would have been happy to give him a ride."

At the same time, Duran, who went to explore the way, also came back. And brought back the wheres of the sunken demons... Star looked at the mess on the ground and asked the students to cut down all the wooden stakes standing in the valley one after another, piled them together and lit a fire.

He didn't sympathize with these mercenaries, but the resentment in the camp was so heavy... He was afraid that there would be an undead here. After all, it was so close to Witherspoon.
