Chapter 2819: guard the jungle

Headquarters of Project Thor.
It used to be a peaceful dense forest. Scholars from the dense forest gathered with guests from afar to study ways to benefit the animals in the forest.
In the sky here, there used to be an imitation sun, which was the ball lightning left by the hero Somura, and it was his last legacy in this dense forest.
But right now, all of this has disappeared. Huge ball lightning exploded, and the research headquarters was turned into ruins. From time to time, burnt ashes fell from the sky, and some kind of monster could be faintly heard from the ruins. Howls came.
A vampire with a blue face and fangs is hiding in the ruins. All living beings who are swept away by the eyes of that terrifying existence cannot escape the fate of becoming vampires. Only a few animals in the forest who were lucky enough to hide in the headquarters when the disaster came, and did not show their heads, escaped from the man's hands.
With that person gone, the people hiding inside the building are not safe. The raging vampires are searching for traces left by living creatures.
The elf apprentice hiding inside the locker watched the terrifying vampire king pass by through the door of the locker. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the vampire king stopped and sniffed around a few times. , with fierce scarlet eyes, finally fixed on the still locker.
This discovery frightened the elf apprentice enough. She would never survive the vampire king's hands. It seemed that the only thing waiting for her was to be killed by the vampire king. She covered her mouth to keep herself from making a sound, but she couldn't restrain the despair in her eyes.
Just when the elf apprentice was in despair, a cold iron sword pierced the darkness behind the vampire king. The iron sword pierced through the vampire king's body, but made this extremely tenacious undead even more angry.
The black smoke erupted from the Vampire King's body, and the swordsman felt that the blade in his hand lightened, and what rushed out of the black mist were ferocious and terrifying vampire bats.
In the form of a bat, the vampire king broke free from the shackles of the enemy, and at the same time quickly repaired the injuries on his body. Facing the attacking vampire bats, the swordsman did not avoid them. The iron sword full of chills danced in his hand, tossing and turning. Not only could the vampire bats not approach him, but they were smashed into by the sweeping blades of the sword. black mist.
Seeing that the swordsman in front of him could not be hurt, the vampire king had a plan, and a large group of bats rushed towards the locker where the elf apprentice was hidden. The swordsman's complexion changed slightly, but he still resolutely blocked the path of the bats. Since he couldn't avoid it, his body was also torn apart by the bats, opening several holes.
Seeing this, the elf apprentice let out an exclamation, his expression was full of worry for the swordsman, just about to cast a spell to heal his wounds, but he heard the swordsman shout: "Get out of here! The guardians of the forest are nearby, go find them protect you!"
The elf apprentice also understood that the current situation should not be neglected, and she did not want to drag down the swordsman in front of her, so she gave him a grateful look before leaving quickly.
Seeing the elf leave, Kaidan also heaved a sigh of relief, and turned his attention to the mage Nevin who had turned into a vampire in front of him.
Just by being glanced at by that existence, his companion and friend became the cursed undead creature in front of him. Kaidan was unwilling to accept this result no matter what. He believed that if those companions knew that they had become what they are now, they would definitely not want to live in pain anymore.
As the most trusted companion of those people, Kaidan had reasons and an obligation to send them off for the last time. Although the vampire's claws had left many wounds on his body, he still achieved what his companions expected. Right now, except for the last mage Nevin, all the vampires turned into by his companions have been killed by him.
Compared with the vampires transformed by other companions, Mage Nevin is more difficult to deal with. Not only does he have the power of the vampire king, but he also has the experience consciousness that once belonged to the mage. More importantly, he can also spray death like the Lich King. Zhiyun is extremely difficult.
Under that person's glance, I don't know how many creatures in the headquarters of Thor's plan have become vampires. Even so, Master Nevin is the most top-level existence among the vampires. Fighting him, No less difficult than Kaidan fighting a legendary creature.
The strong vitality of the vampire king leaves Nevin almost without any weaknesses. Even if Kaidan pierces his body, his injuries can heal in a very short time.
At this moment, Kaidan misses those members of the Holy See. They have special methods to restrain undead creatures, especially vampires. It is a pity that Kaidan does not have those methods now. The only thing he can rely on is this sword in his hand. .
The darkness has become the best cover for the vampire king, and even Kaidan can hardly distinguish which ones are the black mist left by the vampire king's transformation into bats, and which ones are the deadly clouds of death. .
Nevin did not flee as a bat, and was chased and killed by Kaidan all the way. He was also full of anger. If there was a chance to kill Kaidan, he would not miss such an opportunity.
At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly came from behind the two of them. The imposing undead killer was sweeping away all the vampires in this area. Nevin also let out a scream, obviously unwilling to be exposed to the dazzling light Underneath, a large group of bats flew into the depths of darkness.
Kaidan glanced at the back. After confirming that Rhodes had left this place, the guardians of the jungle finally started to take action, destroying the vampire king left here and rescuing the scholars trapped in the building.
Strong scholars naturally don't need their rescue. The moment they noticed Rhodes' approach, they had already escaped far away with space magic. Those trapped in the building were mostly apprentices who hadn't mastered high-level magic.
Kaidan did not wait for the support of the forest guardian, but rushed into the depths of the darkness without hesitation, tracking down the fleeing mage Nevin, and some things must be done by him.
In the darkness where you can't see your fingers, Kaidan can only rely on his own perception to identify the direction. He put himself in danger, and the Vampire King will not let go of such an opportunity.
Countless bats broke through the darkness and rushed towards Kaidan from the side. Kaidan retreated subconsciously, but his back fell into the trap formed by the cloud of death. Under the erosion of the cloud of death, his body suddenly became bloody. The pain didn't dispel Kaidan's initial thoughts. After breaking free from the trap of the cloud of death, Kaidan let out a roar. He quickly looked around, guarding against any attack from any direction.
In the darkness, instead of a ferocious bat, Kaidan waited for a berserk magic.
The chain lightning released by the high-level mage made Kaidan startled. He couldn't bear this level of magic. If he was hit by the chain lightning head-on, he might lose the strength to lift his sword.
The jumping lightning that was gathering dispelled the extremely deep darkness. Kaidan also saw the ferocious face of the vampire hidden in the darkness. The undead monster of memory.
Kaidan didn't know how to describe that kind of undead, even though he had heard traces of the existence of that kind of undead in the battle of Bracada, but when they really appeared in front of Kaidan, he still felt a burst of disbelief.
This kind of terrifying undead monster should not exist in the world at all. The Lord of the Undead just glanced at it, and a large group of terrifying undead monsters were born. Who else in the world is his opponent, and who else can stop him?
After experiencing the Bracada incident, Kaidan was unwilling to intervene in these disputes, but the evil that enveloped the world would not let anyone off because of this, no matter where he fled, no matter where he hid, the evil There is a day when they come to your door.
At this moment, Kaidan seemed to have a certain understanding in his heart, he would no longer run away from the shadowy evil, he would fight against it to the last moment.
Facing the berserk lightning in Master Nevin's hands, Kaidan didn't think about dodging any more, but rushed forward with a brisk stride. The sharp point of his sword was strong enough to pierce enemies in the dark.
What moved faster than him was the vampire king's spellcasting. The violent lightning bombarded Kaidan's body, and the electric current spread through his limbs. The intense pain almost tore his body apart.
Seeing that Kaidan had fallen into a deep desperate situation, the vampire king suddenly rose violently, and was about to strike him the last time, when there was a small sound of breaking through the air in his ears.
The sharp arrow pierced through the darkness, and the vampire king didn't even realize the danger was approaching. The arrow pierced deeply between his eyebrows, and the tip of the arrow even emerged from the back of his head.
The forehead was suddenly attacked, the vampire king felt his mind go blank, and his reaction was a beat slower. Countless arrows followed, piercing his heart from all directions. No matter how tenacious his vitality was, he couldn't bear it. With such an attack, he could only fall to the ground secretly. It wasn't until the moment when the vitality dissipated that his scarlet eyes regained some of the peace that belonged to mages in the past. He just looked at Kaidan and swallowed his last breath.
Kaidan, who was hit head-on by the chain lightning, only felt a burst of warmth in his body. He raised his eyes and saw the elf apprentice who was using first aid to heal himself. He looked around and found a group of neatly lined up, majestic Green-robed archers, nearby mages are using magic to guide them.
Recalling what he knew about Eri in the past, Kaidan's face was a little surprised. He knew that the group of shooters in front of him was the most elite phantom shooter team in Eri.
Among the phantom shooters, Kaidan saw the red-haired hero, the arrow that nailed the vampire king's forehead, making him completely stupefied, came from his hand.
Seeing Kaidan wake up, the elf apprentice also showed joyful eyes, and the other phantom shooters also cast curious looks. Except for the high-ranking guardians of the jungle, no one dared to go deep into the darkness alone, chasing and killing those difficult vampire kings. Even the scholars whose apprentices were trapped were unwilling to come here at all, and did not want to see those terrifying vampire kings again. Undead, Kaidan's behavior can be regarded as unique.
After hearing about his deeds, even the red-haired hero looked at him approvingly, but the current Kaidan doesn't need the praise of those elves, he hopes to find a quiet place and remember those who secretly Companions of sacrifice.
"The hero Gru saw your fearless actions, and he admired you very much."
Not long after Kaidan woke up, the adjutant of Phantom Archer came to him: "Human, are you willing to join the guardian of the jungle and become a member who swears to defend the jungle?"
"I'm not interested." Kaidan just said calmly. He sat on the grass outside the ruins of Thor's plan, watching the rest of the guardians gather up the corpses of the vampire kings and throw them into a huge golden portal. Teleport to another space.
"Where did you throw the vampire's corpse?" Looking at the golden portal, Kaidan couldn't help asking.
"Because Rhodes may return again, we sent the corpses of the dead into the unknown void." Phantom Adjutant explained, "Those mages said that Rhodes can wake up the fallen undead countless times. It's the only way to fight him."
Kaidan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Only when he is personally an enemy of that person, can Kaidan understand how terrible that person is. All the horror legends about him circulating on the mainland are not as good as the moment when Kaidan witnessed the power on his body.
Those undead were already so terrifying, and when they possessed the ability to be resurrected countless times, the degree of horror became even more terrifying. Under such circumstances, Kaidan could hardly see any possibility of competing with them.
Kaidan also finally understood that it was not by chance that the man was able to conquer Bracada and completely drive the mages out of the snowy area. Such an unimaginable move.
Thinking of this, Kaidan couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He could hardly see any hope. Bracada's mages couldn't stop him at all, and Eri's elves were also no match for him. Who else could stop him? This world will eventually be taken over by evil.
The Phantom Adjutant seemed to see Kaidan's thoughts, and comforted at this moment: "I know what you are afraid of, but don't worry, Eri still has us. If Rhodes wants to occupy Eri, he must obtain from the Forest Guardian." They stepped over their corpses. We are already investigating the purpose of Rhodes' attack, and we will get the final answer in a short time."
Listening to Phantom Adjutant's comforting words, Kaidan could only take a deep breath. At least when the shadow of evil shrouded the earth, there were still people who stepped forward to fight against the unimaginable evil.
"I think I have changed my mind." Kaidan changed his words at this time, "I am willing to join the guardian of the jungle and become a member of the defense of this dense forest."
The Phantom Adjutant showed a satisfied smile: "Ordinary creatures must pass many tests if they want to join the Forest Guardian, but you have proved with your actions that you are the right person to defend the jungle. You are now the lowest seat of the Forest Guardian. With With your achievements in defending the jungle, your seat will continue to rise, and I hope that one day, I can see you in a higher seat."
