This lich needs more money

Chapter 509: The Shame of the Empire

No one in the Ryans could have predicted that the wedding, which was just so lively, would turn into a life-and-death battlefield in the next second.

When the destructive blow that had been brewing for who knows how long came, the small villa where the Ryans were located was completely shrouded in the red light. For a moment, even the thunder in the sky was covered by the red light.

Old William sighed, not caring to chat with the young man Allen, raised his shield and jumped out of the window.

The golden holy light turned into a huge shield, wrapping the entire villa.

Seeing this holy light shield, everyone was no longer worried.

The power of the Imperial Shield was difficult for even the Silver Moon Knight to shake, let alone a mere orc.

The weight of this shield was enough to make people feel at ease... until the red light fell.

There was an indescribable vibration, but no sound of collision could be heard. It was like a muffled bomb, and there was no sound after a light bang, but it was followed by a terrifying shock wave.

The howling wind scraped off several layers of the ground around.

When the dust settled, the Holy Light Shield had been shattered, and the small villa was full of cracks, looking shaky.

The Imperial Shield was ultimately unable to completely block the full power of this terrifying blow, but it was much better than the doomsday-like scene around it.

Fortunately, the villa was full of strong people, and they evacuated to a safe place before the building collapsed.

Old William looked at the huge orc in front of him with a pale face, and his expression became very solemn.

It was a terrifying orc over three meters tall, with red skin all over his body, holding a huge axe in each hand. Ordinary people would use it as a two-handed axe, but in the hands of this orc it became a one-handed axe that could be played with.

Orc King Roga, there is no other orc like this.

Why did he suddenly appear and attack the Ryan people unscrupulously.

Did the lich really dare to use the reputation he had built for so long to cheat the Ryan people?

Just to kill Emperor Ryan?

It seemed like a gamble, but in fact it was meaningless, they could leave at any time. The Ryans can install the teleportation array on the ship, and it is not a technical problem to make it smaller and disposable.

Alan flashed to the side of the little emperor and said to him: "Your Majesty, please leave first. I will go and ask the lich what he is doing."

The little emperor glanced at Alan, but did not do what he said, but looked into the distance.

In the dark night with thunder and lightning, it seemed that many shadows were approaching this side at high speed.

"Your Majesty!"

Alan wanted to persuade him again, but found that several Ryan's paladins had come over and surrounded him faintly.

The little emperor looked at Alan carefully for a few times, and then said: "Alan, do you really know nothing?"

Seeing this, Alan couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then took a few steps back, and then asked: "Your Majesty, if I say I don't know anything, will you believe it?"

The little emperor did not answer, but other Ryans had already given the answer.

From the beginning, Alan was not trusted, and now he is the first person to be suspected.

But the orc king didn't care what happened inside the Ryan people. He swung the axe in his left hand backwards and then threw it out with force.

The explosive power made the giant axe rotate at high speed, pulling out a sharp whistle in the air, aiming directly at the emperor.

The old William, the shield of the empire, had not yet recovered his breath, but he still raised his shield to block the axe for his emperor.

The huge impact force made old William retreat several meters. Although the opponent's attack was far less powerful than the previous one, old William's holy light was consumed too much, and it was still a bit difficult to block it.

The giant axe spun and was bounced dozens of meters away.

Seeing this scene, other Ryan's paladins immediately rushed towards the orc king, wanting to besiege him while he only had one axe left.

But to everyone's shock, the orc king just raised his right axe, and the other axe that had just flown out flashed in front of him.

This is a pair of artifacts. Even if the other axe was bought by Ryan, it can still be summoned through the other axe across thousands of miles. However, the Ryan people didn't know this at all.

The two paladins who rushed forward were unable to react in time and were forced back by the orc king's double axes, suffering some injuries.

However, as soon as they landed, a healing spell fell on them, and there were a series of auxiliary spells such as guardian chain and sword protection, which made the two paladins shine like light bulbs.

This is the combination skill of the Ryan people. The paladin plus the priest of light is equivalent to invincibility.

The legendary paladin who blessed a series of spells, two people attacked from both sides, one swung a giant sword of light comparable to a pillar, and the other held a five-meter holy light spear, and was not afraid of this orc who was more than three meters tall.

The orc king howled and barely suppressed the two paladins, and his physical strength was constantly depleted.

"Despicable white-haired dogs! You are really not warriors! Come out, what are you still watching?!"

With the roar of the orc king, bursts of rumbling noises came in the dark night.

A huge black shadow rushed out, burning with purple-red flames!

The flaming long sword swung into a dazzling circle at the side of the black shadow, and purple flames flew out from the black shadow, like a cannonball flying towards the white-haired old man.

A young paladin beside him flashed in front of old William and raised his shield against the purple flaming long sword.

When old William saw the purple flame, he opened his mouth to shout to stop it. Unfortunately, he was a step too late. The long sword burning with purple flames had penetrated the shield of the young holy warrior and went straight through his body.

The shield blessed with holy light was like paper. Even the magic armor and more than a dozen defensive magic spells on his body could not resist this long sword.

"No!"

Old William's voice came at this time, but unfortunately the holy warrior could not hear it clearly.

He couldn't understand how he could not even block a knife!

With the rattling of the chain, the purple flame long sword that passed through the chest was pulled out by the opponent, and the extremely tall black shadow was seen clearly by everyone.

It was a headless knight riding on an eight-legged giant horse, wearing heavy black armor.

Gareth turned to Old William and said unexpectedly: "Hey, I seem to have seen you, many years ago, in Mercury City in the Underdark..."

Recognizing the person, Old William threw the seriously injured and dying young paladin to the priest, and then roared: "Retreat immediately! Protect His Majesty and leave! I will stop him!"

Old William's hands were shaking, but not just because of fear. He had recognized who the headless knight in front of him was. This was the undead who was called the shame of the Ryan Empire. The headless knight who once killed the Ryan Empire with his own strength!

The reason why he knew it was because his ancestor had participated in the battle to encircle and suppress Gareth, but he died at the hands of this headless knight in the end.

Every generation of Garrison is a paladin, and every generation regards Gareth as the biggest enemy of the family.

And today is the second time that Old William has seen this headless knight. The last time was decades ago when he entered the Underdark with the Silver Moon Knight to fight against the powerful lich.

That was a lich who reversed life and death and violated ethics, and could turn the undead into real life. This was the blasphemy that Ryan could not tolerate the most, so the Silver Moon Knight led the elite of the Empire into the Underdark to kill the lich.

Originally, everything went smoothly. With the Silver Moon Knight as the main attacker and Old William as the auxiliary, the two of them swept the entire Underdark together.

Later, in order to ensure that the lich had nowhere to escape, Old William and the Silver Moon Knight attacked Mercury City in two ways.

There was only the Silver Moon Knight on one side, and Old William on the other side led thousands of elites, including the most valued students of the Silver Moon Knight.

The Silver Moon Knight faced the undead army of the Underdark, while Old William only encountered one person, the headless knight in front of him.

And he killed Ryan's army with just a charge.

Old William couldn't react at the time, and he was pierced through by the long sword of this person with his shield. The dignified Imperial Shield couldn't even block a single move from the opponent.

Old William clearly remembered the feeling of the purple flame long sword piercing his chest, and everything just now was like a replay of the old days.

In the end, the survivors used teleportation magic to send all the survivors away, and Old William survived.

Ryan suffered heavy losses in that battle. Not only was he seriously injured, but he took many years to recover. The students of the Silver Moon Knight died at the hands of this headless knight, and were trampled into meat paste by his eight-legged giant horse, without any chance of resistance.

Now that they finally met again, the nightmare-like figure made old William tremble all over.

Not only fear, but also excitement.

Old William raised his shield, and his old body separated Gareth from the emperor. A bottle of potion like the starry sky was poured into his mouth, and then his pale hair quickly turned black, and his aging body became upright again. He recovered from a dying old man to a thirty-year-old.

The priest of light behind him covered him with countless spells, making him feel several times stronger again. The strong holy light lit up from his shield and turned into a holy light iron wall to hit Gareth.

Back then, he had a strong body but did not have this powerful holy light. Now he relies on the power of the Fountain of Youth to return to youth.

It's time to settle the family hatred and the blood debt of the past.

The holy light iron wall rushed towards Gareth, and the holy light turned into hundreds of lances, vowing to pierce Gareth's body.

However, Gareth did not intend to avoid it at all, but instead squeezed his legs against the horse's belly and rushed towards the holy light iron wall.

This time, he did not throw out the flaming long sword in his hand, but held the hilt tightly in his hand and slashed at the holy light iron wall with force.

The purple flame was so strong that it seemed to turn into darkness and collided with the holy light iron wall.

In just a moment, the holy light iron wall that condensed all of Old William's strength was split into two.

Old William looked at the dark aura slashing towards him, and he couldn't even react.

Holy light, shouldn't it restrain the dark magic?
