Chapter 717

"Desen, retreat immediately!"

Ren took out the voice meter and gave the order to Desen, the battalion commander of the first battalion of the Gunwing Knights.

The evil name of the Black Soul Knights has been circulated in the world of Arrenus for thousands of years. As the most elite army of the Scourge, their backbones are all high-level death knights, and the proportion of death knights in the legendary realm is close to one-fifth. .

The legion uses the death knight as the command system, supplementing ten times the number of evil spirit cavalry.

A death knight leads ten evil spirit cavalry, forming the smallest combat squad. Death knights are equipped with ghost skeleton horses that can run through the air for a short time, and wear rune armor and weapons made of Saronite. The equipment quality of ghost cavalry is slightly inferior, but it is far better than ordinary undead.

The quality and quantity of the Black Soul Knights can be called the most powerful extraordinary army in the world.

Compared with the abyss knight created by Eternal God's Choice, it may not be inferior in strength, but it is still slightly inferior in terms of prestige and killing.

The biggest distance between the two lies in quantity.

In terms of personal strength, the Abyssal Knights may be slightly stronger, but compared to the number, they may not even be one-tenth of the Black Soul Knights.

No one knows how many members of the Order of the Dark Souls there are.

This terrifying army of undead is dispatched, often consisting of thousands of people, tens of thousands are just waiting for nothing. The largest time in history, the death lord personally led the attack on the Ramon Empire. It is said that the number of the Black Soul Knights has reached 200,000!

They are best at crushing enemies with numbers far exceeding them, leaving behind a dead zone where there is no grass.

At this moment, Ren saw the Black Soul Knights through the vision of the Thundercast Sky Soldiers.

The eyes of the soul judged that this army of undead is all high-level or above, and the spear-wing knights have only been established for a few years. Although their strength has improved very quickly, the time is too short after all. Currently, less than one-third of them have reached the middle level. One, such a huge gap in strength cannot be made up by equipment.

If it is not for the destruction of the Spear Wing Knights, the only way is to retreat.

The Black Soul Knights rushed out of the portal quickly, but in an orderly manner, with ten evil spirit cavalry as a team, and the captain was the death knight.

They are dressed in pitch-black armor, with faint blue runes shining everywhere, and even the war horses under them are also wearing thick armor. Without a trace of flesh and blood, the dry leg bones were connected to the horse's hooves, and they walked through the air on the smoky dead air.

The portal was hundreds of meters above the ground, and the Black Soul Knights spewed out like a black torrent, rushing towards Gotham high in the sky.

When the Thunder Cast Heaven Soldiers found out, more than 2,000 people had already rushed out.

A huge force of death soared into the sky. Even though they were still far away, the Thundercast Heavenly Soldiers and Spearwing Knights felt the impact of a tsunami and crushed them towards them.

The golden holy light was shining on the spear wing knights, holding the submachine guns and long swords tightly in their hands, and fighting spirit was burning in their chests.

They are fearless.

However, Battalion Commander Desen received Wren's order and shouted loudly: "My lord has orders, we will retreat immediately."

The spear-wing knights riding on the bronze galloping horses showed unwillingness.

Ever since they became Spearwing Knights, they have been invincible on the battlefield. This is the first time they have retreated without a fight. Even though the enemy is so powerful this time, they still have the confidence to rely on the long-range advantage of charging to win the battle.

Even if it collides head-on with the enemy, the "wild gallop" of the bronze galloping horse will link the breath into one, and it will not be weaker than the Black Soul Knights.

Thinking of this, the Spear Wing Knight just slowed down his flying speed.

"retreat!"

Desen yelled again, "Whoever dares to disobey your lord's order will be killed on the spot!"

While shouting, he was the first to change the direction of the bronze galloping horse, circled a large arc in mid-air, changed from east to west, and flew in the direction of Gotham. With his example, the captain under his command hurriedly urged the knights to keep up, and completed the overall turn in half a minute.

Looking back, the speed of the Black Soul Knights was much faster than expected, and the distance was only three or four miles away.

If there is a delay of a few more minutes, the two legions will be fighting head-on.

The spear-wing knights felt tremendous pressure, and the breath of the power of death beat against their hearts like turbulent waves, impacting their souls. This is still such a long distance. If we fight face to face, I am afraid that there will not be many people left in one round of sprinting.

They finally realized that the strength of the enemy was far beyond what they could resist.

"fortunately……"

The spear wing knights secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Bronze Gallop is a real flying mount. Its flying speed is similar to that of Ghost War Horse and Ghost Skeleton Horse. Its stamina is not as good, but its explosive power is stronger, enough to return to Gotham before being caught up.

Several bronze galloping horses did not retreat with the team, but scattered in all directions. They were not spear-winged knights on horseback, they were wearing golden armor.

Thunder Cast Heaven Soldiers!

They will serve as Rayne's eyes to monitor the Dark Souls.

Only the Ultramarines can fight against the Black Soul Knights. As soon as the enemy was discovered, Renn gave the order to the Ultramarines.

The first company and the second company rushed out of the highland fortress and summoned the fire dragon to fly into the sky.

Sanlian continued to stay where he was.

The movement on the east side of Gotham soon spread to the city wall on the west side. Kerstakin was the first to turn his head to look at the black torrent in the sky, and couldn't help saying in a deep voice: "Black Soul Knights!"

He observed intently for a few seconds, and said quickly: "Their horses can't support high-intensity flight, and they will land before they reach Gotham. Half of the Three Hammers should be separated and the steel shield guards will form a defense line to resist their attacks." charge."

"No, the Three Hammers will continue to guard the city wall." Ren rejected the King of the Hill's proposal.

Kerstakin glanced at the city wall. The army of undead was still attacking the unfinished gap. The gap was more than four miles long, but under the firepower of the electric light cannon, no undead could approach the gap within 500 blades of the city wall. .

Half of the Three Hammers formed a defensive formation at the gap, but they had no chance of fighting at all.

This is a waste of troops.

He still wanted to persuade, but Ren said: "Pay attention to the strong undead raiding the city wall, I will stop the Black Soul Knights."

The voice fell, and his figure disappeared.

The demon soul of the beholder elder comes with the seven-ring teleportation technique, which makes Ren no longer have to rely on the imaginary gate, combined with the effect of the key of the eight-ring gate, to accurately teleport to the destination.

He appeared hundreds of meters away from the huge portal in the sky.

Ren had already held the hammer of thunder and lightning in his hand, and spread a pair of wide metal wings behind him. With a glance of his eyes, he immediately saw through the details of the portal.

The other end of the portal is more than three hundred miles away, and it is maintained by four liches.

They are all legendary high-level, there is no holy soul lich.

The portal is still rushing out of the death knights, behind the gate is a large wilderness, there is no end to the teams of black soul knights, at least 30,000 to 40,000.

Apparently, as soon as the battle on the other side of the city wall started, the portal opened.

At this moment, more than two thousand black soul knights have landed on Shield Island.

"snort."

Ren grasped the situation in an instant, and at the same time, the lich on the other side of the portal also immediately sensed the enemy's approach, and a lich in a gorgeous magic robe flashed out, holding a staff in his withered hand like chicken feet, With a touch of a fingertip, several spells were cast instantly.

A group of death knights burst out with the power of ice and death, and charged Ren.

In the lead is a legendary high-ranking death knight.

The rest are also at the beginning of the legend, well-equipped, and the ghost skeleton horse driving under him is extremely fast. Following the Lich's spell, it rushed to Renn's face in the blink of an eye. With a tacit understanding, he wielded the evil rune sword , cut out attacks with different effects.

A transparent spherical force field spread out, enveloping Ren with its center.

The Lich's spell entered the force field and disappeared instantly.

"Anti-magic field!"

The lich guarding the portal screamed in a hoarse voice.

Immediately, it looked at the death knights and entered the anti-magic force field, the enchantment of the rune armor on its body failed one after another, and the magic effect on the sword completely disappeared, and rushed in front of the enemy.

The human body instantly swelled to a height of more than three meters, and swung the hammer at the death knight who rushed forward.

Boom!

Like a thunderclap, the sky trembled for a moment.

Ren launched a thunderous charge, and the titanium gold flying feathers on his back vibrated and accelerated, bursting out with the purest terrifying power, and the war hammer smashed the death knights and their horses blocking the road into powder.

bang bang bang bang...

It smashed through ten death knights, and the power on the warhammer was weakened. The last one was a legendary high-ranking one, with blue flames shining in its eyes, and wielding the great rune sword, unleashing the strongest blow in hundreds of years. Slashed Ren's neck.

Bang!

Sparks splashed, and the rune sword shattered inch by inch.

Before the death knight could react, Ren's warhammer also hit its chest. The armor made of Saronite was as fragile as paper. Its undead body and the ghost skeleton horse under it exploded, turning into an explosion. Pieces of the sky, no bones left.

One face to face, the entire team of death knights was instantly killed.

The flames flickered in the eyes of the Lich in the distance, and he fled into the portal without hesitation.

But it was too late.

While Ren hammered the death knight, he gathered a titanium holy sword in his left hand, and a silver-blue thunder flame ignited on the sword. With a wave of his hand, he slashed out!

Because the anti-magic force field is turned on, he can't cast spells himself, and he can't use flash, lightning flash, and mind jump. Thunder slash has become his fastest means of displacement.

brush!

With a scream of thunder, Ren locked on to the lich and slashed at him with his sword.

Lightning streaked across the sky.

In an instant, Ren appeared in front of the portal. Behind him, a dozen black soul knights who were rushing out were cut in half.

The figure of the lich appeared.

It was shrouded in an anti-magic force field, interrupting the flash, and the magic robe, staff, and various life-saving magic items on its body were all invalid. The eight-ring anti-magic force field restrains spells below the eighth ring, and the Lich made a judgment instantly. It has mastered the eighth ring spells but knows that it has no chance.

The Lich gave up resisting, and watched indifferently as a thunder-flame sword slashed towards him.

With a pop, the head fell.

Ren frowned. The lich's soul had not been absorbed by him. It would soon be resurrected on the phylactery, and he would see him again in the future.

At this time, the surrounding death knights attacked like a tide.

Ren glanced at the huge portal, and the anti-magic force field couldn't interfere with it, so he removed the force field. He let the undead's weapon slash on his body, cast the spell for half a second, and there was a deafening explosion, and the steel-like shock wave exploded in all directions.

Magic force field!

The death knights and ghost cavalry who surrounded them were instantly blown into pieces, and the surrounding space was instantly emptied.

The portal was also shaken violently by the force field of the magic explosion, but it did not collapse.

Ren didn't rush into the portal rashly.

With a shake of his shoulders, he released the mirror image technique. Ten mirror images appeared in the surroundings, two stayed in place and blocked the portal together with him, and the remaining eight flashed or jumped in their hearts one after another, flapping their wings to catch up with the dark soul knight rushing towards Gotham, and started killing.

War tramples!

Magic force field!

Thundercloud storm!

Lightning rays!

Psionic Storm!

The mirror images used their own methods, like wolves entering a flock of sheep and massacring the Black Soul Knights in the sky. Figures with dark golden wings collided with the enemy head-on, and they were not injured at all, but the corpse fragments of the undead army fell like rain spilled.

Many legendary death knights in the Black Soul Knights counterattacked bravely, but they were as helpless as lambs in front of Rennes' mirror image.

Their attacks only left some shallow marks on the mirror image.

At the same time, Ren and the two mirror images blocked the portal. No matter how many death knights rushed out, none of them could break through the defense line composed of three people.

Ren can destroy this portal at any time.

But he didn't want to.

After closing this portal, the Lich can still open it elsewhere. It is better to keep it to harvest souls and cause more damage to the Scourge. The soul power of the members of the Black Soul Knights is much higher than that of ordinary undead, and one can be worth several.

After only fighting for half a minute, Ren converted more than 2,000 grids of electricity.

"close the door!"

"Close the portal!"

Ren was killing right away, and one of the four liches maintaining the portal on the opposite side yelled.

In addition to these four liches, there are also a group of casters of the Seal of the Knot, as many as a dozen liches and necromancers. They watched Renn block the portal, but none of them dared to do it.

No spellcaster wants to face an enemy with an antimagic field.

"Go away!"

"You trash!"

A roar sounded from the opposite side of the portal. The hoarse sound was like a metal collision. It was very uncomfortable to hear, but Ren felt a little familiar.

Immediately, he saw a dark and burly figure approaching the portal.

It is covered with heavy black armor. This set of armor is extremely large, more than two meters high, and has a unique shape. There are two sharp spikes on the helmet, and sharp iron spikes on the shoulder armor, elbows and knee pads. , the whole body was wrapped tightly, not an inch of skin was exposed.

Bursts of dark green light penetrated from the seams of the armor.

There is a pair of evil eyes on the face of the helmet, which also emits a dark green light. It seems that the inside of the armor is not a body, but something even more terrifying.

It holds a huge two-handed hammer.

When Ren saw this death knight and this heavy hammer, he immediately remembered it.

Aaron Ravenat!

A few years ago, it was this guy who fought him in Wezeland. At that time, he was only level 6, and he had stacked six or five layers of strength boost to defeat it. When he was about to completely wipe out the opponent, he was rescued by the death lord.

The eyes of the soul took a look, and after a few years, it became stronger.

"Holy rank powerhouse!"

Ren suddenly felt a little apprehensive. The death knights of the holy order have a special title. They are the most powerful minions under the command of the death lords - Apocalypse Knights!
