In the shadow of the forest, General Gavin Rad held a heavy sword in his hand and led the scattered paladins to advance quickly through the forest.

A circle of scorching holy light lingered around his body, like a halo, surrounding the body of the paladin. Holy light magic focuses on healing and purification. In the 3000 years since its birth in the human world, it has

, this mild energy is rarely used offensively.

But now, due to the pressure brought by the orcs, the Church of Holy Light has to turn to study the offensive nature of Holy Light magic. Since it is heavily biased towards the light, it has to fight against the undead and evil creatures.

, the scorching holy light will become extremely lethal.

Just like ice cubes that encounter sunlight, the evil undead will always be purified into ashes by the scorching light. This has been proven on previous battlefields.

The 500 Paladins easily defeated the 300 Death Knights led by Talon. The Blood Demon suffered very little damage. This was a great victory and the panic caused by the Death Knights was swept away. However, it also had its disadvantages.

The knights are even more proud, and many of them are quite disdainful of the combat effectiveness shown by the death knights.

However, they did not know that those they defeated could only be called plate armor warlocks at best, not death knights.

"General, I always feel that it is too risky for you to come here!"

Jor-El held the warhammer in his hand and followed Gavin Rad. He looked around the forest vigilantly and whispered:

"It's just a few death knights who steal corpses. It's enough for me to bring people here."

"Don't worry, Joe."

General Gavin Ladd didn't care. He moved his shoulders and said in a deep voice:

"For those ordinary death knights, I am not worried that you will encounter failure. In fact, I have great confidence in you, but don't forget that the leader of those death knights...that guy named Talon Blood Demon,

That is a ruthless character who can fight Master Antonidas head-on!"

"If you encounter it, it's still hard to say what the outcome will be."

The general of Stormwind City coughed lightly:

"The number of Paladins is too small, Joe. Every brother is extremely valuable. The most important thing is, do you still remember that after the war, when we collected the battlefield bones, the bodies of three companions were missing?

Yes? I very much suspect that it was taken away by those death knights. I suspect that just as we are trying to decipher the secrets of the death knights, they are also studying the secrets of the paladin."

These words shocked Jor Al, and he subconsciously asked:

"You mean, this time they stole the body..."

"Yes!"

Gavin Rad's eyes narrowed:

"Don't have too much confidence in the moral level of the greenskins. If they come up with some evil method and really resurrect the remains of the paladin into a death knight, then it will be a disaster for the newly-established Knights of the Silver Hand.

It’s a real disaster! It means that the Holy Light we believe in has failed in the face of the evil of the orcs... Can you imagine the terrible consequences?”

"That will be a devastating blow to the will of the people!"

The general tightened his grip on the heavy sword in his hand. The healing sacred contract on his chest shone brightly in his emotional fluctuations. He gritted his teeth:

"I can't allow this to happen! This is why I have to come here... This can't happen anymore! We have to..."

"ah!"

Before General Paladin finished speaking, a scream came from the forest ahead. Gavin Rad immediately rushed in the direction of the scream. Jor-El clenched his war hammer and followed closely.

.

"Be careful! There are...there are traps!"

When Gavin Rad arrived, several paladins were hurriedly lifting an unlucky dwarf paladin out of a pit full of spikes. It was a trap dug 3 meters deep and placed at the bottom.

If a broken spear is placed, an ordinary person will definitely be pierced instantly if it falls.

Fortunately, this dwarf paladin was thick-skinned and had the natural petrified skin of dwarves, so only his arms and thighs were pierced.

The paladin next to him immediately called for the power of the Holy Light to heal his companion. In the soft orange light, the wounds on the dwarf's skin healed bit by bit, but the internal injuries still existed. He was definitely unable to fight.

The healing of the Holy Light is not omnipotent. Unless they are archbishops who focus on healing magic, no one can cure such a crippling injury in an instant.

"Ah! These damn corpses!"

The dwarf tried his best to suppress his screams of pain, but the expressions of the surrounding paladins became a little ugly.

General Gavin Rad also frowned. This was obviously a trap set by his opponent. As an old soldier, he knew better than anyone else that sometimes instead of killing the opponent, it was better to make him lose his combat effectiveness. A tragic

The presence of injured soldiers has a huge impact on the morale of the team.

"Hoffman, send Niles out of the forest and help us block those guys outside! Prevent them from jumping over the wall!"

The general issued a new order. Although the injured dwarves and human paladins were a little unhappy, they still supported each other and walked towards the forest behind. The paladins who can be selected into the Knights of the Silver Hand are all veterans of many battles. They also

I understand the significance of General Gavin Rudd's actions.

A few minutes later, just as the two evacuating paladins were about to walk out of the forest, the expression of the dwarf Niles, who was cursing all the way, suddenly turned ugly.

"What's wrong? Shorty, are your wounds uncomfortable?"

The human paladin Hoffman noticed this, and his palms filled with divine light. The dwarf rubbed his belly and sat on the ground, with a strange paleness appearing on his bronze cheeks.

"I...I feel the blood...boiling...weird..."

"Don't move, I'll treat you!"

The human paladin squatted down, but the moment his palm came into contact with the dwarf's wound, the dwarf's newly healed wound seemed to be torn open internally, and hot blood spurted out from it. Those ferocious beasts

Blood beads jumped rapidly backwards in the air.

"ah!"

The dwarf screamed, making the atmosphere of the quiet forest become weird. The blood sprayed on Hoffman's face. The human paladin turned around subconsciously and saw not far behind the two of them, near the entrance of the forest.

On the hillside, a slender figure wearing a long dark red hood was walking toward them, holding an epee shining with the aura of ice in his hand.

The fingers of Tyrion's right hand spread out in the air. As his fingers shook, one-third of the blood in the body of the dwarf Niles lying on the ground was drawn out, entangled like a beating blood snake.

His arms, combined with the death energy surging throughout his body and the blue eyes under the hood, looked so weird.

Hoffman felt a fatal threat from the figure in front of him. He quickly pulled out the war hammer from behind. The holy light energy in his body stirred up and enveloped his body. He pointed the war hammer at Tyrion in front of him. He raised his

shouted:

"Death Knight! The Holy Light protects me! I am not afraid of you!"

He roared and rushed towards Tyrion, the scorching holy light wrapped around his warhammer and smashed it down on Tyrion's head.

"boom"

The heavy sword exuding cold air collided with the warhammer, the holy light and death, two opposing energies collided in the air and jumped out with dazzling sparks, but they were unable to shake Tyrion's body.

He raised his wrist outward, and the body blessed by death pushed the Paladin Hoffman out. The Paladin wanted to stabilize his body, but the next moment, the holy light surging on the surface of his body was blocked by Terry.

Ang's gauntlet wrapped in death corrosion was torn apart, and fragments of golden light were scattered everywhere.

"Snapped"

His neck was clasped tightly, and his whole body was lifted high. The holy light in his body was resisting, but after his proud martial arts and strength were defeated, it was no longer helpful for his holy light to burn hotter.

Their eyes met, and those ice-blue eyes were as cold as death frost, emotionless.

"Your holy light probably won't shine here."

"Kacha"

Hoffman, whose neck was broken, struggled violently, and his body stiffened. Behind him, the eyes of the dwarf Niles, who raised his head with difficulty, were filled with despair.

When Death Knights first appeared, their fighting methods were far from mature, but Paladins had also just appeared, and their fighting methods were also immature. Such basic Holy Light attacks could not threaten the former senior Death Knights at all.

The player is Tyrion, the current first-generation death knight.

On the other side, the deeper they go into the forest, the more traps the paladins encounter, with various tricks and great dangers.

From the most rudimentary traps to exquisite magical traps that are impossible to detect, the former rangers did not forget the deadly traps they learned after falling to death. In the forest that had been prepared for two days,

Full of "masterpieces" they left behind.

After the Paladins truly entered the hinterland of the forest, the Dark Rangers under Tyrion no longer hid their figures. Whenever a Paladin stepped on the trap, a Dark Ranger hiding in the forest would shoot out a fatal

Bone arrows, although after being vigilant, most of the traps can be avoided, but in the elusive ambush of 20 dark rangers, they still continued one after another. Seven paladins lost their combat effectiveness, and three of them were killed.

Killed directly.

Perhaps on the battlefield, the assembled knights charging could easily crush the dark rangers in front of them, but in this secret battle between hunting and counter-hunting in the forest, the paladins were at an embarrassing disadvantage.

"withdraw!"

Seeing the eighth paladin being hoisted into the air by the sling trap, General Gavin Ladd, whose expression was extremely ugly, cut off the bone arrows shot from the forest with his sword, and saw other knights rushing towards the darkness who turned around and ran away.

Ranger, a flash of anger flashed in his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the veteran decisively gave the order to retreat. He already understood the current situation. The so-called stolen bones were obviously just a bait to lure them into this trap and resurrect them from the dead in the forest.

The confrontation between the rangers was simply a nightmare for the slow-moving Paladins.

At this moment, Gavin Ladd, who was full of confidence in himself, felt a little regretful in his heart. He took out the communication stone from his waist, which was given to him by the mage Luo Ning before entering the forest.

Useful.

"Ronin! I am Gavin Ladd, fly back to Durnholde Castle immediately, and ask Major General Blackmoore for me to get help and support! There is an ambush in this forest! Tell him to bring more people, there is an ambush in this forest!
