I really don't want to cross

Chapter 312 Headless Horseman
"Hey... did I say something wrong?"

Seeing Wood's obviously bad face, and the gradually tightening claws on his head, Akuya said tremblingly.

"..."

The corner of Wood's mouth twitched: "...It's true that it's wrong, but what's the matter with that kind of statement that makes people think?"

"Who is this……"

Darkness watched Akua standing on tiptoe behind him, holding down Akua's little black-haired boy, his face full of doubts.

It's no wonder, after all, it was the first time she saw Wood in a human state.

Although the figure of Sleeping God is not tall, it has reached 1.7 meters upwards. The difference in hair color and height makes it difficult for people to associate the body of Sleeping God with human physique.

"He's the one who captured Akua. This harmless appearance is probably his usual disguise." Sato Kazuma whispered to Darkness.

"Making it?"

Darkness nodded knowingly.

The corner of Wood's mouth twitched, and he resolutely ignored Sato Kazuma's explanation that it seemed that there was no problem, and there seemed to be something wrong.

"you--"

At this moment, an extremely angry roar came, followed by a terrifying magic power.

"...give me enough time!"

The eyes under the headless knight's helmet were extremely red, and he glared at the people at the city gate: "There is a limit to ignoring people. In a town full of novices and adventurers, who gave you the courage to ignore me, a dignified demon king army cadre? of?"

Many adventurers outside the city gate turned their heads to look at the Headless Horseman at the same time, and then they all blinked their eyes in confusion, clearly expressing something like 'Eh?You're still there' attitude.

"..."

The headless horseman's arm holding the head froze, an extremely awkward atmosphere pervaded, and the entire city gate fell into silence.

The silence lasted for ten seconds.

The Headless Horseman suddenly raised his head high in his hand, and said in a dark voice: "...everyday...everyday, every day... come to my castle, no matter it is windy or rainy, he never stops coming to my castle to release the explosion magic, the guy with a brain problem Who the hell is that!!"

"It's very unsuitable to bring the conversation back to the beginning...Is it because of everyone's reaction just now that he didn't know how to continue?" Sato Kazuma looked at the Headless Horseman with some pity.

"A mere undead, yet so arrogant!!"

Akuya yelled angrily, and while her divine power was rising, she waved directly at the Headless Horseman.

"Sacred Turn Undead"

The pure white soft light centered on Akua, covering the entire area, and the whole world was almost dyed white at this moment.

boom!
The beam of light that was far beyond the limit of magic descended from the sky, enveloping the headless horseman.

"Ahhhhhhh~~~~"

The headless horseman, who was still extremely arrogant just now, surged with black energy, and let out a series of screams, and the undead horse under his crotch turned into ashes and flew away.

However, the Headless Horseman is a cadre of the Demon King's Army after all, and his strength is slightly stronger than the superior demon that appeared not long ago.

Forcibly survived Akuya's magic until the white light dissipated.The Headless Horseman staggered up from the ground, looking at Akua with horror in his eyes.

"Eh?"

Akuya was taken aback: "Strange, how could it have no effect?"

"No, it's obviously very effective. He screamed." Sato Kazuma replied.

"I am one of the cadres of the Demon King's Army, the Headless Horseman Beldia. With this armor specially blessed by His Majesty the Demon King, plus my strength, the High Priest's 'Sacred Turn Undead' should completely treat me. useless……"

The Headless Horseman stared straight at Akua: "It should be useless, how old is your guy? Are you really a rookie? Isn't this a rookie town?"

Wood curled his lips, Akuya was completely useless to creatures other than undead, but to undead, Akuya was like a nemesis.

Few of the undead creatures that came to this city could not be killed by Akuya.

"Forget it, if that's the case, then I will complete the task given to me by His Majesty the Demon King. Although he asked me to investigate the two sacred breaths that appeared not long ago, I began to feel troublesome, so I directly let the army of undead take over the town. Destroyed."

The Headless Horseman spoke coldly.

of course……

Mainly because he was a little afraid that Akuya would give him a few more hits.

Closer to home, the moment the headless horseman's voice fell, the dead air in the field suddenly became stronger.

wow wow wow...

There was a strange sound, and one after another dirt bumps bulged on the ground.

As the soil bag was broken open, what caught everyone's eyes was... an army of undead that made one's scalp tingle.

They were knights in armor, with rotting skin exposed through the gaps, and holding weapons.

Undead knight!

Monsters that are two levels higher than zombies.

Although there is no wisdom, it is not something that novice adventurers can deal with, let alone... such a large number.

If these undead knights are really allowed to kill the town, then the destruction of the town that the headless horseman said is very likely to become a reality! !

"Oops…"

"Go to the poor shopkeeper and ask for some holy water, as much as you can."

"Ok?"

The faces of many adventurers changed drastically, but the scene that happened immediately left everyone present stunned.

Because those undead knights did not disperse, but rushed towards two people in a certain direction.

"what?"

Akuya blinked her eyes, looked at the mighty army of undead, and her pretty face turned pale: "Hey!! Why did you come straight to me?"

Wood sneered, and directly grabbed Akua by the neck.

"Bastard, what are you doing?"

Akuya was taken aback for a moment, before she was thrown out by Wood before she could finish her sentence.

Wood retreated towards the crowd, anyway, the target of these undead knights was Akuya.

however……

Boom boom boom!
Seeing that Wood ignored the bait completely and rushed straight towards his army of undead, he couldn't help being taken aback.

This familiar scene...

Do I have a natural conflict with these things?

The group of adventurers behind Wood turned pale one by one as they watched the army of undead rushing forward, and spread out in other directions at the same time.

In a blink of an eye, only Wood was left standing in place, and was directly submerged by the rushing army of undead.

"Eh? Is that guy saving me?"

Akuya looked at the army of undead knights with deep confusion on his face.

This bastard has such a good heart?

"Hahahaha~~~ Let's go, my army, just flatten this inexplicable city!!" The headless horseman laughed wildly as he watched the smoke and dust raised by the army running.

But right now...

hum!
The movement of the undead army stopped suddenly.

A strange sense of tranquility from extremely dynamic to extremely quiet suddenly permeated the field.

It was as if time had stopped at this moment.

A strong smell of blood filled the air.

"what is this……"

Akuya's complexion changed, and she only felt an aura even more evil than the Headless Horseman, appearing in the army of undead without warning.

shhhhhhh-!
There were dense sounds of piercing the air, and endless blood blades emerged from the center of the undead army like raindrops, and quickly spread to the surroundings.

Everywhere!
The mighty army of undead were all disintegrated.

rotten mince,
shattered armor,
The bedding covers the entire area, outlining a picture scroll that looks like hell!

This scene made everyone, including the Headless Horseman, lose their voices.

And in that central area.

With purple lips, blood-colored hair, and a figure in a blood robe, stood in the center of the broken corpse.

Just like a demon king!
