Chapter 283: The Legendary Veteran of the Empire
"You finally found it."
Of course the Death Knight would not answer his question. It was Su Bai who answered the question.
He sighed, his tone somewhat helpless:
"Your heroes of this generation are a little too stupid."
The Death Knight's strength has reached level nine, which is higher than Hilda's level.
The latter actually believed that with the skills he had honed, he could withstand the charge of a hero one level higher than himself indefinitely.
Even if the latter was not as diligent as him in cultivation, and had not practiced for as long as he had, he should not have had such thoughts.
Especially since the Death Knight had been observing him for ten full days.
The Death Knight simply lacks human emotions, not brains.
On the contrary, the Death Knight, no longer bound by human emotions, becomes smarter and more cunning than in life.
As a brave warrior, exposing one's strength in advance is a taboo.
The Death Knights' charge had no command from Su Bai; it was entirely the Death Knights' own idea.
The first time he showed weakness to the enemy, and the second time he cooperated with Flynn Quincy's sneak attack and took him down in one fell swoop.
The whole process was neat and tidy, without any delay.
Su Bai ignored the wounded soldiers, slowly walked to the side of the Shield Hero who was stuck on the spear , and whispered:
"Do you know why you lost?"
Hilda looked at him resentfully without saying a word, blood gushing out of her chest and mouth like crazy.
Su Bai didn't care whether he answered or not. He pointed at the Death Knight who was slowly approaching on a bone dragon and continued to speak to himself:
"Because he doesn't have what you call a bullshit heart of glory, nor what you call pride."
"Since we're already on the battlefield, we should do everything we can to kill the other side. If we're still thinking about whether we can win or not, do you think we're just playing house?"
Hilda glared at him with gritted teeth:
"You, you are such a sinister person who only knows how to hide in the background!"
Su Bai stopped mumbling and shook his head helplessly: "I've been talking for a long time, but you still don't understand."
He stood up and waved.
Then he saw the Death Knight walking up to him, holding the gun handle with one hand, rotating his palm slightly, holding it, and twisting it -
"ah!!!"
The spear smashed the Shield Hero's already broken heart into pieces.
Before he could finish screaming, he saw countless skeleton knights coming over, raising their spears and stabbing hard.
The screaming stopped abruptly.
As for those soldiers who wanted to rush up to help, they were stabbed into sieves by more skeleton knights who rushed over.
If we were to say who was treated better, it was undoubtedly Carl who was hit hard.
The other soldiers and the legion commander were all stabbed to pieces, but he was pinned to the ground by a dozen spears, unable to move.
He let out waves of painful roars from his throat and tears streamed down his old face.
Su Bai ignored him and waved to the Death Knight and the other skeletons.
The latter drew their spears and stepped aside.
The Shield Hero was left lying on the ground with holes all over his body, unable to even move a finger.
He blinked his eyelids twice slowly, and then he completely lost his breath.
“Huh~”
Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief and muttered:
"Fortunately, he didn't cause me any trouble like O'Leary did."
"As expected, only magic can defeat magic, and only heroes can fight heroes."
When planning to kill Oriel, Oriel had made full use of the hero's "luck BUFF".
As a result, Su Bai's countless traps failed.
It was not until the end that psychological tactics were used to barely disrupt O'Leary's judgment and successfully implement the killing plan.
But this time, defeating the Shield Hero took more time than dealing with the human army.
Hilda lost half of her blood after being shot by the Knight Warrior. She died instantly without even struggling.
The process is very simple and neat.
According to Su Bai's guess, the reason why it went so smoothly was because it was the Knight Hero who dealt with the Shield Hero.
Therefore, the final result is so logical.
If it were someone else, Hill might be able to make a comeback and complete a series of incredible operations such as counterattack and escape.
At some point, these experiences and adventures could even be used to write a legendary novel.
"It seems that in the future, it will take a brave man to deal with a brave man."
Su Bai smiled, stretched out his finger and tapped lightly in the air——
"Soul brand!"
Complex inscriptions gradually appeared in the void, and these inscriptions slowly constructed into a strange magic array.
The magic circle enveloped the Shield Hero who had just died, squeezing the undead spirits that had not yet left his body back into his body.
The whole process lasted less than ten seconds. As the green magic circle gradually dissipated, only a "click" sound was heard, and the Shield Hero's bones made a sound.
The flesh on his face shrank rapidly as if the tide had receded.
Soon, the Shield Hero, whose skeleton was left, appeared in everyone's sight.
When the Shield Hero stood up from the mud, shock was written all over Carl's face.
He finally understood why the brave knight could still survive in the world even though he had lost his flesh and blood and all his organs.
It turns out that this necromancer has mastered such an evil secret technique!
“It’s all your fault !!!”
Karl wanted to rush over and kill Su Bai.
He had been in the military for more than ten years, and it was all because of this necromancer in front of him that he ended up with such a tragic ending.
Unfortunately, the skeleton knight behind him held his body tightly, making it impossible for his defeated body to move at all.
Before Su Bai had time to look at the Shield Hero's panel, he was attracted by his roar, then turned around and walked over.
He squatted down, looked at the veteran with interest, and said:
"To be honest, I'm quite interested in you. Are you interested in joining my team?"
"I can give you full authority to command the army."
Su Bai, who is familiar with the original plot line, has great respect for this legendary veteran of the empire.
Heroes like the Shield Hero and the Knight Hero, apart from the title of heroes, are simply ordinary geniuses.
Carl Armstrong was completely different.
Born in poverty, he became famous at a young age, and after decades of battles and countless honors, he earned the name of the Black Wind Legion.
When his power reached the pinnacle of his life, he took the initiative to station in this desolate land to guard the border for the human race.
After planning to create the Land of Chaos for more than ten years, he was about to succeed, but in the end, he was robbed by the Knight Hero and the Shield Hero together.
But he still had no complaints and just thought of it as paving the way for future generations.
Finally, in the final battle with the demon army, he fought hard with a group of veterans and died of exhaustion...
Such soldiers deserve respect from everyone.
"Bah! You are just a mere undead. Are you worthy of us humans being your vanguard?"
Carl Armstrong spat out a mouthful of saliva, which flew past Su Bai's ear.
"Oh, I knew it was like that."
Su Bai sighed, not feeling very surprised.
An old Imperial general who surrendered so easily would not be worthy of his admiration.
"But it's okay, I have other solutions."
Carl Armstrong was stunned for a moment, looking at Su Bai's eerie face, suppressing his inner trembling, and said through gritted teeth:
"What do you want?"
