The carriage began to turn. Amidst the violent shaking and jolting, Lily almost fell to the ground. She couldn't help but hold on to the window with one hand and hugged Hulls with the other hand. It took a while before she stabilized.

There was a commotion outside the carriage. When the northern knights saw the enemy in front of them, they adjusted their formation while shouting, pulled down their masks, pulled out the weapons carried on their saddles, and began to face the enemy.

Lily, who stayed in the carriage, felt the carriage being driven to turn sharply, and fierce sounds of fighting began to come from behind the carriage.

The sound of galloping horses' hooves, the clash of swords, and the roars and shouts came and went one after another, and from time to time they were mixed with the sound of swords piercing flesh, which made people worried and uneasy.

In the wilderness, the Knights of the Rose, who had been waiting here for a long time, rushed down the hillside, formed a fan-shaped array, and rushed towards Lily's carriage, while the northern knights desperately resisted the obstruction. The two sides charged at each other on horseback. In the first encounter,

More than 20 people were directly stabbed and thrown to the ground, and fierce close combat ensued.

Although the speed of the carriage is already very fast, it is still not enough compared to the excellent Warcraft mounts of the Knights of the Rose.

Soon, Lily heard the fierce sound of swords clashing outside the car window. The harsh sound of the blades rubbing and colliding made people's hearts tremble.

"Chi", a sharp sword suddenly penetrated the wall of the carriage, cutting one of Lily's arms. However, the sword was quickly withdrawn and blocked by the Northern Knights outside.

Frightened by this, Lily had to protect Hells in her arms and stay away from the car walls on both sides.

But even so, the situation became worse and worse. Gradually, fewer and fewer northern knights survived, and Lily's heart dropped step by step.

She touched the dagger at her waist, preparing to use it for final resistance, when a harder metal product came from the touch of her hand.

"This is……"

She took it out and found that it was really the rattle given by the Death Scythe knight in the Glyph Fortress the day before yesterday.

'Please ring this bell when you are in danger.' This was the message given to her by the knight.

At this time, I can only give it a try.

She nervously shook the slightly heavy and ancient bell. The tongue of the bell did not sound according to her frequency, but hit the inner wall of the bell at a slow speed, making a cold and distant sound.

It's like the bells ringing in the middle of the night in an empty church. Although the sound of the bells is not loud, it can be heard far away in the wilderness.

At first, Lily thought it was some special treasure, but after the bell rang for a while, it gradually stopped. At this time, the battle outside remained unchanged and there was no improvement.

This made Lily feel depressed and desperate.

Time began to pass, one by one the northern knights fell, and this team of the Knights of the Rose began to gain an overwhelming advantage in the battle.

Although there are only about 60 people, for the remaining 30 or so Northern Knights, it is already an insurmountable peak.

"Shua"

A long and narrow trail of blood spattered on the carriage, staining it red.

Lily hugged Hells, her palms trembling a little.

There isn't much time left.

Just when the detachment of the Knights of the Rose was about to control the carriage, a strange sound of horse hooves came from the dark night, followed by a cry of surprise.

A group of ghost-like knights appeared in the night. There were about 20 of them. Their bodies glowed with a faint blue light. They rode ghost horses and wore pitch-black steel armor. There was nothing on their necks.

Undead Sequence 5·Headless Ghost Rider

This is a powerful corpse warrior created by the Necromancers during the Mercury Dynasty. Their heads were lost when they died and were later resurrected by the Necromancers.

'For the dead, the head is just a decoration.'

In order to reduce weight, avoid unnecessary flaws, and maintain the consistency of the team, necromancers often remove the heads of ghost knights.

In this way, outsiders have no way of knowing whether this ghost knight was a human, an orc, or an elf during his lifetime.

As soon as they appeared, these ghost knights began to charge quickly.

That strange figure passed through the dark night and attracted the attention of the fighting members of the Knights of the Rose.

"superior!"

Although they don't know who recruited these ghost knights, it is definitely not one of their own. In order to prevent the queen from being rescued, they have one more task.

During the battle, lances and swords penetrated the bodies of these ghost knights, but no blood or sound was seen. The methods used to deal with living people are often difficult to work on these beings.

But correspondingly, the attacks of these ghost knights are also more special and weird. The sword blade cuts across the body, making people feel a coldness that touches the soul.

Some members of the Knights of the Rose freeze at this point, and it often takes a second or two to react and recover. In a duel between experts, a missed second or two is often fatal.

The pursuing members of the Rose Knights also began to be injured. They couldn't help but treat these enemies seriously and concentrated their energy.

After several battles, they gradually became aware of ways to deal with these ghost knights and began to regain control of the battlefield.

However, while these enemies were fighting the Ghost Rider, the carriage took Lily towards the other side of the wilderness, and finally took advantage of this rare opportunity to escape.

In the darkness of the night, the lantern hanging on the front of the car was shaking constantly, and I couldn't see clearly what was ahead. I could only pray that I wouldn't hit something, while driving so fast.

Gradually, Lily finally felt that the carriage stabilized, and at this time they ran to an unknown place, and everything was pitch dark.

The horses pulling the carriage were already exhausted, and their speed gradually slowed down. Only then did Lily carefully lean out of the carriage door.

The carriage stopped in place, and Lily led Hells down the steps, stepped into the calf-deep grass, and looked around.

"It's good that Your Majesty is still alive." A familiar voice came from the front of the carriage. When Lily looked back, she realized that it was the witch who usually helped her heal.

The witch's gray robe was covered in bloodstains, and her cloak was full of tatters. She and the only northern knight driving the carriage jumped out of the carriage and walked slowly to Lily to check on her and Hells.

After discovering that the little prince was fine and Lily was only slightly injured, the two people's expressions relaxed slightly.

Lily: "Where is this?"

Witch: "It's not clear yet, but we should have left Oyster Plains. There is a clear difference between the pasture here and there."

The witch knelt down, a tiny ball of light lit up in the palm of her hand, reflecting the earth full of insects, and she pushed aside the weeds under her feet to observe carefully.

"This side seems to be more fertile, and there seems to be enough rain, which means we should not be far from the coastline."

"That's good news." The knight wearing a helmet spoke in a low voice.

Witch: "Your Majesty, please rest for now. We will take turns to keep vigil. Although we are not completely out of danger now, the horse's physical strength has reached its limit, and it is difficult to tell the direction even when walking at night."

"That's all it can do."

Lily, who had escaped again, nodded, took Hells to eat some food, and then returned to the carriage to rest.

Lying on the sofa in the carriage, Lily's eyes drifted to the starry sky outside the window, feeling a little insomnia at the moment.

The thrilling escape for several consecutive days had already made her nervous and exhausted, but she couldn't sleep at this moment.

I was afraid that I would never wake up again. When I woke up, I saw corpses lying around.

I could only toss and turn on the bench in the carriage, so unbearable, sober and painful, until very late.

It's another early morning.

The cool night mist still lingered in the air. Darcy walked striding through yesterday's battlefield, looking at the stiff corpses beneath her feet.

Most of them are from the Knights of the North, and only a few are members of the Order of the Rose.

"You said you met the Ghost Rider last night?" His voice was still so cold and solemn.

"Yes, sir, it is difficult for those ghost knights to hurt him with ordinary methods. We later gradually dealt with it through resonance and formation."

"So, just when you were obsessed with dealing with the new enemy, did you let Her Majesty the Queen escape?" The voice was cold and stern, making the knights standing aside feel ashamed.

In yesterday's battle, Darcy was not involved. At that time, he led another group of people to set up defenses at other levels. He did not arrive here until later, when Lily had already escaped.

Not long after he followed Lily in the Northern Territory, he received a special order, asking him to lead the Knights of the Rose on a thousand-mile raid and go directly to the Eastern Territory to set up defenses.

That special silver and purple maid seemed to know and guess Lily's direction, and prepared Darcy in advance.

"We must not fail this time, Darcy." Before leaving, the maid sat on a high rock overlooking the general below. She did not have the same respect and fear as others.

Fortunately, there were no outsiders at the time, otherwise many people would be curious about the origin of this maid, who dared to treat the empire's number one general with such an commanding tone.

"I see."

Darcy replied in a low voice. He also knew that several mistakes had made the witch a little impatient.

After stepping over the messy ruins of the battlefield and the broken weapons and flags on the ground, Darcy finally arrived at the location where Lily had escaped.

The heavy wheels drew several huge arcs on the ground, heading somewhere in the east.

After re-determining the direction, Darcy no longer hesitated and stalled, and led the members of the Knights of the Rose towards the traces left by the ruts.

Half a day later, Lily discovered the enemy chasing after her from behind.

"Now we can only get off the car and escape on horseback." Seeing this, the witch directed the knight to cut off the wooden frame hanging on the horse.

After helping Lily get on the carriage in Hulls, the witch began to guide Lily in which direction to go and where to turn.

"What about you?" After listening, Lily looked at the witch below.

"I will fight for the last time for Your Majesty."

In this way, she patted the horse's rump and asked Lily and the two to start off.

Gradually, gradually, when Lily looked back again, she could only see a blurry figure in her field of vision.

Soon the bright red knights chased over, drowning the two tiny figures like a tide. A violent explosion sounded, and Lily knew that she would never see those two people again.

Tears slid down her cheeks, but she had no time to wipe them away.

If Nuo had not left the Rose Palace at that time, but died directly there, so many innocent lives would not have been involved.
