The wizard glanced at the lord beside the big man, blackened his face, and marched off in a direction without saying a word.
Their distance was a hundred or so paces, and having the Word of the Talisman was the limit, but the 'witch doctor' seemed to have a sight distance far beyond that (he could see farther than George when he met the werewolf).
Looking at the increasingly distant figure, George hurriedly called out to the crowd to follow him. Closely behind the 'witch doctor'.
The wind disappeared and continued to blow westward. Yet the smoke was not blowing over again.
I don't know how long it took, the knights saw the black ground that had been scorched under their feet - the fire in this direction, seemed to have gone out in this direction.
Seeing such a scene, the knights stayed for a short moment, pulled out the water of hope, for themselves and their horses are coated. And with the realization of the prepared sackcloth and hemp wool, infested with the potion that Anthony had configured a few days before, covering the horse's eyes and blocking its ears.
This is a lesson learned from the last time, and Anthony's potion, although limited, but it can more or less play a role in calming the horse to.
After rechecking the horse's protective gear, the group continued on their way. And as the team gradually moved forward, they slowly saw the many wrecks on the scorched earth. And many, many still burning embers. And I don't know if it was the fire or the smoke, making the fog here lighter, two or three hundred meters away, can be seen.
As far as the eye can see, all around is scorched earth, the ground wriggling things dense, overwhelmingly crawling in this direction.
These unsleeping people, who were not yet dead, sensed the scent of people. They are still burning with residual flames. Like the evil spirits in purgatory. It is heartbreaking and depressing.
The knight who broke into the midst of the purgatory galloped his horse and did not pay attention to those mutilated bodies on the ground.
Indeed, such a scene makes people cold sweat, and when they first entered the place, the crowd could not help but lower the heart a shock. But when they followed the lord to accelerate forward, they gradually found that under their own heavy horses' hooves, whether moving, or not, will be trampled.
Gradually, the knights broke away from the encirclement, leaving them behind in the mist, and as they moved forward, there were fewer and fewer wrecks on the ground, but occasionally something would suddenly stand up now.
Their body armor was burned slightly red (cooled down some), and even in the previous ramming and trampling, twisted to some strange shape. This greatly affected their movement, but they still struggled to their feet and ridiculously tried to rush over!
George and others naturally did not have to talk nonsense with them, and soon let these guys, who would even go crooked in the charge, sleep completely in peace.
But what surprised George a bit was that the closer they got to the manor, the more bizarre the bodies of these desecrators became.
He was able to identify from the wreckage, some of the blasphemers in the fire before the body has been some deformities. And some of the blasphemers in the seams of the armor after the fall back to the ground, there will be some tentacles.
Not only them, George also saw some strange little things on the road, they look strange, can not tell whether it is a rat with multiple heads, or a body full of tumors rabbits.
But without exception, these things are on the ground to wear around, looking for those half-cooked things to eat.
"Do not use your spells indiscriminately... Anthem, the decay here is very severe. Everyone stay in good shape, because after we reach the manor, we may have a bitter battle." On the way, George said so admonishingly to the knights around him.
From the first battle with the blasphemers, the knights remembered a deep lesson. And since then, unless the need to charge the battle, will not go in the battle 'discipline' the enemy.
After all, even those blasphemers, after one charge, there is nothing to be able to do. That so-called immortal body, under the dawn longsword and spear (gray knights mostly use spears), a few strokes will be ruffled.
These guys also understand their 'intellectual' shortcomings, so the only power available, usually used to purify the body, healing injuries.
To prevent these things from biting the horses' legs, the riders did not stop along the way. Until they crossed the wheat field (which had burned to a scorched earth) on the southwest side of the manor, and bypassed some areas that had not burned and might have been filled with monsters. The roll of smoke on the distant manor, only gradually appeared in George's view.
And Anthony one person and one horse, then parked in the south side of the manor man-made lake in the garden waiting for the crowd.
Have to say, this location he picked very well indeed, George felt, even if they refer to the scroll, will also pick here to let people and horses rest for a moment - but the scroll can see that there are not many monsters in the vicinity, but can not see that the forest is not on fire.
He could not help but feel that this guy could survive until now, indeed, there is a reason.
When the group stopped their horses and came to the wizard, the lord unfolded the scroll, ordered everyone to take a short break, and then came to Anthony's side and talked to him.
And with the sound of horse hooves in the disappearance of the past, free to notice the surrounding knights, but also gradually began to feel the surrounding environment gradually became depressing.
The place is incomparably silent, only the fire is burning. But the knights can hear the ground there are charred bones in the faint cry, like a cat chun, scratching the heart.
In the midst of the haste, some began to hear as if there were loved ones calling out their names behind them, but that loved one had long since departed, unless they had come to the underworld.
And all sorts of strange thoughts began to constantly pound these people's minds...
"The magnetic field here is so disturbed that it affects one's normal thinking, and according to my pocket watch, the radioactive magic energy here is also beyond the threshold. I have recently been studying the connection between thinking and abnormal magic energy fluctuations, and I found that in the midst of certain waves, creatures can hallucinate. And in many natural phenomena that cause hallucinations, the magic energy fluctuations are similar to them."
"This makes me can't help but think, that the so-called calamity forbidden area, could be a natural phenomenon. Because if I am given enough magic power, I can also create like that ancient god..."
Antony talked a lot about himself. It seems that when it comes to academic issues, this guy forgets everything.
Obviously, what the sorcerer said, these knights did not understand, but indeed, they all distracted. No longer to think about those messy things in the mind.
"What do you mean?" "Can you speak the common language?" "Alexander always communicates with him, explain to us." "(Bad smile)" "(Snicker)".
At this time, Jack suddenly looked serious and interjected a sentence: "The devil is testing us, and the cowards who are not strong enough in mind will turn back."
After saying that, he pursed his lips, his face a little pale. But immediately afterwards it was replaced by anger.
After these words were said, the knights, who had been redirected to think, then suddenly felt that they could no longer hear those cluttered voices.
And are slowly becoming angry - this little trick to scare us, the devil is a little too underestimated!
With the knights who rode all the way, panting gradually become even, Anthony's words more and more, George also seems to be impatient to hear some tired.
He waved his hand, the knights have mounted their horses, while he turned his head to Anthony said: "In fact, I originally intended to take you to the scorched earth side, then let you go north - there seems to be a lot of monsters, but in fact is the safest area in the vicinity. But it won't take much time to turn back the way you came from here, and you'll be on a straight path after that."
"I'm not following you because I know it's dangerous, and I'm not asking you to show me the way - you're obviously not as good as I am at this." Anthony's venomous mouth remained unchanged: "I followed you because I wanted you to show me in this manor that you made the right decision and that all those people's sacrifices had meaning and value!"
"Yet I found out that you are a fool, not only does not seem to have a plan, but you do not even fully understand what the devil is!" Speaking of which, he turned his words and suddenly laughed disdainfully: "After you go in, you will definitely die!
These words were like a heavy hammer, making George freeze in place.
To be honest, he indeed did not have any plan, because everything ahead was unknown. Naturally, it could not be arranged.
So he said he didn't know what the consequences would be, because he knew that when they came near the manor house, they could only go forward with their eyes closed.
But the words from Anthony's mouth, but he was in a state of shock, but more confidence and expectation.
He couldn't help but sweat and asked the mysterious sorcerer for advice in a red-faced whisper: "Lord Anthony, what special means do you have?"
"No." Anthony said with a straight face.
In George's dumbfounded, he added: "But... I have a little fire extinguisher, you know, you mentioned wildfire earlier... You can not blame me ah, I did not prepare anything, if you advance..."
Martin, who had been listening intently, almost slapped him in the face. He swore that if the guy in front of him didn't lead the way for them, he would definitely tie this guy to the top of a rock and throw him in the lake to drown.
At least let him understand, before the war, do not say these inauspicious words right.
But the lord was covering the veins on the top of his head and stopped his move. He told him to mount his horse and get ready to go.
Then George turned his head, looked at Anthony for half a second, nodded his head and said.
"Shut the hell up! Instead of complaining here, why don't you help me think about that demon's head and which empty spot on the wall of honor is appropriate to hang it!"
These words resonated with the knights, and after hearing them, they all gave Anthony a hard stare.
George was not going to talk nonsense with that guy, and after letting everyone get ready, he threw off his cloak, mounted his horse, and reached forward.
"Mang!"
