Chapter 213 - Rescue (1/2)

”Is there someone fighting?”

Heath raised his eyebrows and headed in the direction of the sounds.

He clearly heard the clash of blades in the voice just now, and in this area, the only one who could use the crossguard sword was undoubtedly the base of the Valley of the Dead where he was.

As expected.

After walking a few hundred meters forward, Heath soon arrived near an open space, where a battle was taking place.

On both sides of the battle were more than a dozen garrisoned warriors, which should be the patrol team sent by the garrisoned. The ones fighting against this patrol team were hundreds of Wraiths and contaminated seeds.

Most of these warriors were only at the level of Apprentice Knights. Under the siege of the Wraiths that were obviously more than ten times stronger than their own, they had already fallen into a bitter battle. There were even a few corpses left on the field, what was even worse was that there were still a few warriors who had fallen into the mire.

The remaining people had to rescue their companions and fight against the Wraiths. One could imagine how difficult it would be.

”Quick, quickly pull Sebastian up!”

”Will we die here? They... they're increasing in number!”

”No, I don't want to die...”

”Hold on, don't give up, fight!”

The warriors who were in a desperate situation were almost on the verge of collapse. Only one official Knight, who was probably the leader of the team, was still fighting desperately.

However, it was difficult for two fists to fight against four fists. After repelling several Wraiths, the warrior's cross sword was stuck on the shoulder bone of a Skeleton and could not be pulled out.

The surrounding Wraiths quickly surrounded him. The Knight could only give up the cross sword. However, without his weapon, he was soon at a disadvantage under the siege of the surrounding Wraiths. What was even more fatal was that his legs were supported by a magical vine.

The Knight was trapped. A Ghoul immediately jumped up and pounced on the Knight. It opened its bloody mouth and bit down at the Knight.

”Captain Ogden!”

”Quickly dodge, Captain Ogden!”

Seeing that a tragedy was about to happen, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the Knight with a whoosh. The large cross-shaped sword was emitting a dark red light.

Heath raised his right hand and the Wizard's Forcefield was spread out. Instantly, the Wraiths in the scene were all frozen as if they had been hit by time magic. He then clenched his hand into a fist.

Bang! Bang! Bang! A series of 'bang bang' explosions sounded.

Like bugs that had been crushed, the Wraiths in the field exploded one after another, shattering into pieces and bone fragments on the ground.

Clang! A loud and clear sound of a sword rang out.

Heath pulled out his sword with a backhand and slashed vertically upwards. His entire movement was completed in one go.

Poof!

The Ghoul that was fixed in the air was like bamboo that had exploded. It was split open from the middle, and fresh blood poured down like rain.

With this rain of blood, Heath was like a ferocious tiger that was hunting its prey as he pounced into the Wraith horde in front of him and started killing in all directions.

These Wraiths, which had forced the Knights into a desperate situation, could not withstand a single blow from him. With a swing of his sword, he could easily sweep across a large area. For a moment, there were continuous crackling sounds, and the Wraiths fell in groups.

The Knights at the back widened their eyes.

”So... so powerful!”

In just a few minutes, all the Wraiths in the field had died.

”We... we're saved! We're saved!”

”We're... we're still alive...”

The warriors were so happy that they cried.

Heath walked to the Knight and asked, ”How is it? Do you want more?”

The Knight shook his head and panted, ”I'm... I'm fine.”

He had only suffered some superficial injuries in the battle just now. He was more or less exhausted from fighting. Other than that, he was fine.

After resting for a while, he bowed deeply. He said gratefully, ”Thank you for your help, sir. We are the soldiers of the camp of the Valley of the Dead of the Bloody Fortress. We will definitely remember your righteous act today!”

Heath put away his cross sword. ”Captain Ogden, we have met before.”

After arriving at the camp, the commander of the camp specially gathered the Knights and low-ranking officers in the camp to get to know Heath.

Knight Ogden was stunned for a moment and did not recognize him.
