Chapter 148 Hydra, the Death Knight Arrives
Wayne stood on the high wall, looking at the obelisk in the distance.

The original plan was to find a commanding height to observe and confirm that the Church of Death had the ability to transport the stone slabs before taking action. However, the enemy had installed surveillance and there was no way to hide.

If you can't hide it, there's no need to hide it. Just walk past it openly.

Under the high wall, Oscar led his brothers and skeleton soldiers to the scene. The giant's house was extremely unfriendly to ordinary people. Looking at the towering stone wall, Oscar waved his hand and ordered the skeleton soldiers to climb up first.

He saw the Soul-Eating Crow and confirmed that the two enemies were half-dead. He followed the bishop's order to bring the two alive.

Their tendons were pulled out, their skin was peeled off, their flesh and blood were washed away, and they were made into skeleton soldiers using the most cruel methods.

Just as the fifty skeleton soldiers climbed up the wall, they suddenly heard a whistling sound, as if something was falling from above.

Oscar looked up and saw a flash of shadow in his vision, and then a black shadow fell to the ground at high speed.

boom!
The cracks spread in all directions, and flying earth and rock fragments flew in all directions like bullets. Several members of the Church of Death who were dressed as miners had no time to dodge and were hit by the rubble, with blood all over their faces.

Wayne stood on the sunken pit, a ray of gray in his eyes. He was possessed by an immortal body and enjoyed the tranquility of death. He had a clear mind and an excellent experience.

Divine soldiers descend from heaven!

His high-profile appearance like a falling object from the sky shocked Oscar and others. The wounds on their faces no longer hurt, and they just stared blankly at Wayne walking out of the gravel pit.

Oscar was the first to react and ordered the skeleton soldiers to attack. Rows of skeleton soldiers jumped down from the wall, their lifeless eyes full of confusion.

Wayne restrained his aura, and combined with his hidden magic, Oscar and others could not tell that he was a 'dead man'.

The skeleton soldiers saw their own kind, but with their empty brains, they were unable to execute such a complex command, so they just stood there waiting for new orders to be issued.

"Take me to see your boss and tell him that the Death Knight is looking for him." Wayne said coldly, his eyes full of contempt.

"Nonsense!"

Oscar laughed angrily, and seeing that the skeleton soldiers were of no use, he called his brothers to rush forward.

There is only one person on the other side, and he is cursed. Capture him alive!

More than a dozen miners were all Hexagram-level wizards. They did not master any advanced faith magic, and were not even worthy of summoning the power of agents. They all used the four elements magic to call over.

The Giant City ruins have a very high elemental content, but only the Silver Mage is qualified to mobilize these four elements floating in the air. The miners can only sacrifice the four elements obtained through meditation, and the fight is extremely lively with crackling and clattering sounds.

A shadow flashed by, and a black figure rushed out of the wall of fire and flashed in front of a miner.

At the moment of passing each other, the miner was sent flying backwards as if he had been hit head-on by a train, blood gushing out of his mouth and nose in mid-air, and when he landed he was only exhaling but not breathing in.

Wayne's figure flashed, and he moved at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to react to. He did not transform into a Death Knight on the spot to prove himself. He was going to consume the opponent's manpower first, and kill the Golden Mage until he was left alone before transforming.

He does not regard the believers of death as his own people just because he is a Death Knight. It has nothing to do with the so-called camp, nor is it because good and evil cannot coexist. His moral bottom line is flexible and his own positioning is very vague. How can he be qualified to accuse others of being villains?

In the final analysis, it was simply that Mayor Wales's account books were too bloody. If this could be tolerated...

He was afraid that he would become such a person in the future!
"Return to the arms of death..."

The cold voice echoed in the field. Oscar saw that his younger brothers whom he had trained with great effort suffered heavy casualties, while the skeleton soldiers turned a blind eye. He was so angry that his eyes were wide open. He summoned the free fire elements around him and shaped his mind into a giant flaming python.

The ruins contain extremely high levels of the four elements, and can easily summon a large amount of fire elements.

The giant python is a hundred meters long and emits astonishingly high temperatures. When it opens its mouth, you can faintly see the roiling waves of fire inside, like flowing lava, which is extremely oppressive.

Oscar did not attack immediately, and his younger brothers saw this and rolled and crawled to hide behind him.

Wayne glanced at the giant python that lowered its head and spewed flames from its bloody mouth: "Not bad, at least the shaping is remarkable. It makes me want to do it."

He waved his hand and a surge of fire elements swarmed in, as if they were determined to fight to the death and not retreat even a single step.

The long tail of red flame spread down, and the dense scales were arranged vividly. The giant python was close to the ground, with wisps of green smoke rising. Its head was raised high, and its golden snake eyes flashed fiercely.

There are eight such heads in total.

The eight-headed python summoned by Wayne was even larger, like a moving volcano, winding and emitting suffocating heat waves.

The two giant pythons confronted each other, and the air was filled with anxiety.

Oscar's eyes widened in disbelief, how could the opposite side be so big? Was it a new formula?

The giant python shaped by the fire element had no fear and would not feel inferior or afraid of anyone just because they were smaller in size. However, as the eight-headed giant python opened their bloody mouths at the same time, the giant python in front of Oscar collapsed on the spot. The fire wave merged into the eight-headed giant python, and a new head grew out.

Hydra!
Oscar was stunned by the unprecedented operation. It was the first time in his life that he knew that magic could lead to betrayal.

“Hehehe——”

Wayne smiled heartily, pressed down with five fingers, and ordered Hydra to let the other party feel its passion.

Nine heads were raised high, hot red light swept across the dark sky, nine pillars of fire pierced the earth, the rolling sea of ​​fire burned fiercely, and the scorching heat even ignited the air at this moment.

……

"what happened?"

At the obelisk, Sebastian used high-altitude surveillance to detect the raised-headed flaming Hydra, and the surging fire element was raging across the earth.

Not Oscar. Even if the relic elements were strong, he couldn't cast magic of this intensity.

Then it can only be an enemy!

Sebastian's face darkened. He hated this uncontrollable situation. Even though he had already given the enemy a buff, something unexpected still happened. This made him feel vaguely uneasy.

"My knight, cut off the enemy's head and bring it back."

At Sebastian's command, the three skeleton knights straightened their backs, rode their skeletal warhorses, and led all the skeleton soldiers to march westward.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it."

Sebastian's ominous premonition did not subside, but instead intensified. He looked at Mana beside him and said, "Follow them and see what's going on over there. Act according to circumstances. You are allowed to use the power of the executor."

"clear."

Mana was wearing a miner's uniform and looked like a skeleton covered with human skin. He disappeared into the darkness in a few quick steps.

"Speed ​​up and set up all the magic circles within two minutes."

Although Sebastian felt something was wrong, the most urgent task was to take out the stone tablet sealed in the obelisk. Unsealing the seal would consume a huge amount of the four elements. Even if the reserve elements of the entire Giant City ruins were gathered through the magic circle, it would be a drop in the bucket.

Fortunately, the problem was not serious, as he had prepared everything before coming.

Sebastian took out four rings from his arms, representing earth, fire, water, and wind respectively. They were provided by the Death Knight in the underground tomb of Paris. After years of accumulation, the reserve was enough to fill three Parises in an instant.

"More than enough!"

There was a glimmer of greed in Sebastian's eyes. The Death Knight did not say that he would take back the ring. In other words, after the seal was broken, the remaining four elements would be his reward.

Under his scolding, the miners set up the magic circle as quickly as possible, and then placed the rings. A large amount of the four elements of earth, fire, water and wind were injected, climbing up along the energy slots on the four sides of the obelisk and quickly rushing to the top of the tower.

……

Rumble!
The Hydra rolled and raged, with an agility that was completely different from its huge size. Every time it swung its long tail, it could stir up a gust of hot wind, and its winding figure left molten red grooves on the ground.

Faced with this behemoth that was like a natural disaster, Oscar's minions had no energy to fight back. Before the Hydra could get close, the water was dried out by the hot wind, and they shrivelled up and spontaneously combusted.

Oscar tried his best but couldn't stop Hydra from killing people. He was bathed in the high temperature heat wave, cursing and swearing, and his quality was worrying.

He stood and hid behind a high wall, and saw the Hydra rumbling towards him. He rolled up his sleeves to reveal the black tadpole symbol. A mysterious spell sounded, and Oscar's eyes were empty, showing the grayness that only dead people have.

A blazing sea of ​​fire rushed over, submerging Oscar's location and turning everything around into ashes.

The Hydra was bathed in the sea of ​​fire, its body burning. After the sea of ​​fire dissipated, it disappeared.

In the burning area, the ground was covered with flowing black and red magma. The temperature was so high that it melted the surrounding walls that stood like city walls. The air was so distorted that it seemed as if the space itself had become chaotic.

The white foot bones stepped on the boiling magma and walked towards Wayne step by step.

At the last moment, Oscar borrowed the power of the agent to put himself into a state of emptiness of death.

This mode is very similar to Wayne's current state, immortal and not afraid of pain, but because the temperature of the flame was too high, he lost his flesh and blood and remained in a constant skeleton state.

Wayne raised the corner of his mouth and said sinisterly, "Let me guess. When the divine power you borrowed is exhausted, will you fall on your back, or will your bones fall apart?"

"None of it is right!"

Oscar stepped out of the lava, his bones touching the ground, and he ran faster and faster: "I will take over your body, and you will be the one to die."

Oh, so the agent's divine power also includes the ability to possess other bodies?

Wayne let out a light exclamation. It was another useless new posture.

Seeing Oscar rushing towards him, he did not dodge or evade. Instead, he stretched out one hand to press down the opponent's skull. With the terrifying force, the skeleton fell to the ground with a creaking sound.

"caught you."

Oscar cried out in ecstasy. The process was unexpectedly simple. Two bony arms stretched out and clamped Wayne's arms tightly.

The aura of death surged and transformed into a black-robed shadow holding a sickle behind Oscar, sweeping towards Wayne.

The sickle pierced through Wayne's body, turned into mist and dissipated, and the shadow disappeared immediately afterwards.

In front of Wayne, the skeleton crackled and fell apart. He weighed the skull in his hand and threw it to the ground.

Ordinary stuff!
Switching to another mode, Wayne would not be so easy to deal with the Silver Mage of the Church of Death. Now the father beats the son, and he can beat him however he wants. He doesn't even need to do anything, just stand still and wait for the other party to die on him.

After dealing with this group of elites of the Church of Death, Wayne glanced at the confused skeleton soldiers behind him. The latter were still waiting for tasks. In that case, he would give the orders.

dangerous!
Bang!
A gunshot rang out, and Wayne had just realized the warning when his shoulder and arm were hit hard and he flew sideways.

He rolled twice on the ground, covering his numb arm, his eyes fixed on the commanding heights.

A skeleton riding a bone horse... a sniper!

What kind of combination is this? The version has been updated to this extent?

Wayne felt so bad after seeing this that he decided to go back and equip himself with dual guns. He decided to stop being a Death Knight and become a Death Cowboy.

A lasso is thrown out, and if it is caught, it's a scalp!
The crisis warning came again, Wayne rolled sideways, and smoke came out of a bullet hole at the original location.

The sound of dense footsteps and horse hooves came, and Wayne exclaimed "WTF" when two skeleton knights with heavy firepower rode on war horses and led the skeleton soldiers to parade around, completing what he wanted to pretend but failed to do.

The skeleton infantry surrounded from all directions, and the skeleton soldiers who were waiting for the mission joined the team. The three skeleton knights were worthy of being Sebastian's proud works. They had good intelligence, knew who the enemy was, and could give orders directly to the skeleton soldiers.

"Your figurines are pretty good..."

"It's mine now!"

Wayne stretched out one hand and pulled out Shadow Nightmare from the void.

The pure snow-like sword blade reflected the light, illuminating Wayne's skull face. He was wearing black armor and completed the transformation the moment he got the knight's sword.

The portal opened, and the undead warhorse Yulia was summoned by the Shadow Nightmare, kneeling with its front hooves bent, waiting for its master to ride on it.

Wayne turned over and jumped onto the undead warhorse, holding the knight's sword high in his hand, and the tattered cloak condensed by the aura of death behind him moved without wind.

The ruby ​​at the end of the knight's hilt flickered faintly, and the surging shock of death spread out, sweeping across the entire field, submerging all the white bones and skulls.

The two skeleton knights dismounted, raised their hands to their chests, and knelt on one knee.

The skeleton infantrymen straightened their backs, raised their weapons and saluted.

The sniper at the commanding heights landed at the fastest speed, and fell to the ground. Without waiting to pick up his head and put it back on, he knelt on the ground and saluted with his hands on his chest.

On the ground, Oscar, who was abandoned by Wayne, stood up again, broke a rib and raised it above his head.

"How can this be?!"

A scream came from the corner of the wall not far away. The sound was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the silent environment.

"Why are you hiding? Come here."

Wayne's skull was flashing with white light and he looked towards the source of the sound fiercely. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Mana trotted over to the undead warhorse.

He knelt down on his knees and tried to kiss Wayne's boots, but Yulia raised his front hoof and kicked him in the face.

Yulia: I haven't licked it today, so it's your turn!
Mana was hit by a hoof and his face was full of joy.

It's not unfair. This is the horseshoe print of the Death Knight, or the stigma of the Church of Death. No matter how many people kneel down and beg for help, they can't get it.

No more washing my face!

"The great death knight, the announcer of the oracle, the master of the underground tomb..."

Mana knelt down again and proudly listed a bunch of titles before saying, "Bishop...Bishop Sebastian is currently unsealing the obelisk, and the slab will be out soon."

Mana originally wanted to call him "My Lord Bishop", but then he thought that was not right. The bishop was an elder to him, but in front of the God-chosen Knight of Death, Sebastian was not worthy of a honorific title, not even a villain.

"Okay, I see your loyalty, keep working hard, you will definitely benefit from it."

"Thank you for your generosity. Being able to serve you is our greatest reward."

Mana was surprised and delighted, and couldn't help asking: "Respected Knight, why did you punish Oscar? Did he do something wrong?"

"Look up and I'll tell you the answer." Wayne looked down and slowly lifted up the Shadow Nightmare.

"..."

Mana swallowed, carefully raised his head, and looked directly at the Chosen Knight from a close distance, trying not to make his gaze appear offensive.

Swish!
With a flash of white light, Mana's head rolled to the ground.

Those eyes were full of shock, not understanding why they had gone their separate ways.

I am dead?
Why did I die? Why did the knight kill me?
Because I kissed his boots without permission?

Didn’t you just not kiss me?
Mana couldn't figure it out, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got. In a rage, he turned into a skeleton soldier, holding a rib scimitar in his hand, and stood side by side with Oscar.

Wayne didn't know, if he had endured the transformation a little longer, he might have been able to witness the power of the last agent, the executor, Winterwing Sizoun.

"Lead the way ahead, I want to see Sebastian!"

The skeleton infantry were divided into two teams. Three skeleton knights mounted their horses and walked at the front of the team. Groups of cold light flickered, surrounding the Death Knights and walking towards the obelisk.
