Suzanna tore off the curtain on the wagon to watch Anfey . At that moment, Anfey did not seem to have an advantage in the fight . He had killed two Dark Knights at the beginning, and seemed to keep up with the other three Dark Knights . Under the attack of the other three, he kept moving back, but he still moved fast . He moved left and right to avoid the Dark Knights’ attacks . As he avoided the Dark Knights’ attacks, he would kill a few zombies .

"Do not worry about him . He is very wise . " Slanbrea smiled when he saw Suzanna so worried .

"What? What do you mean by that" Suzanna was confused .

Slanbrea shook his head and smiled . He did not have time to explain . Anfey tried to prevent Annunciata from using Death magic and to buy himself some time . Unfortunately, Slanbrea did not think these kind of tricks could escape Annunciata’s eyes . A wooden case with fragrance appeared in Slanbrea’s palm . He carefully opened the case with a ceremonial gesture . There was a golden scepter in it . The golden scepter was carved with runes . A small angel statue rested on top of it . Before Slanbrea took the scepter out of the case, there was already a strong bright feeling . It made everybody in the wagon feel good about themselves .

"Kid, come here . " Slanbrea held the scepter and then waved at Suzanna .

Anfey looked like he was dancing on an ice rink . He could always move from one place to another with lightning speed . The three Dark Knights yelled and chased him, but they could not touch him at all . Slanbrea was not wrong . Anfey did not care about these Dark Knights . If he wanted, he could kill them at any time on the spot . Dark knights could be considered junior-level death spirits, but they did not have their own thinking and lacked the speed to pose any threat to Anfey . Anfey focused on the zombies .

He found the zombies were not scared of lights and were abnormally difficult to kill . Even when their heads were cut off, the zombies still did not die . Their headless bodies still could walk and even change direction as Anfey moved . Anfey had a bad feeling about this . With the knowledge he had about necromancers, he could not figure out what was going on .

A roar as loud as thunder came from the sky . Bruzuryano finally had started his attacks . His gigantic body unbelievably moved faster than lightning speed . In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed in front of that Death Knight . He waved his palm . Before his palm reached the Death Knight, the messy air currents he created had covered the Death Knight . That ghost horse with light blue flames flew backwards, like it was wrapped in a tornado .

That Death Knight used the Shadow strategy . His real person appeared in the back, but with a huge sound, the shadow shattered under the attack . He left deep paw prints on the lifeless ground . Many cracks showed around the paws . Some cracks were as wide as a few inches . They were wide enough to fit a hand .

A white shadow flashed . Bruzuryano threw himself onto it . He waved his palm at the Death Knight’s right shoulder . Bruzuryano did not get him with his first strike . However, in the blink of an eye, he had carried out a second strike . When Bruzuryano attacked with full force, no matter the power or the speed, he had reached a point very few people could exceed . After that shadow of the knight was created, his power decreased significantly . If he was at his peak, he was a match for Bruzuryano . This time he had to use the shadow strategy again to avoid the furious attacks from Bruzuryano .

Shadow strategy got Bruzuryano once . If Bruzuryano could be fooled several times, he was not good enough to be a top power . The silver white gigantic bear chased after that Death Knight with an undescribed speed . As the real Death Knight showed up, the gigantic bear had already lashed out at him .



The Death Knight could not release his shadows anymore . When he saw no way to dodge, he roared and thrust his spear at Bruzuryano’s chest . Bruzuryano had been forced to make a suicidal attack before, but now it was the shadow’s turn to use the same strategy .

As the spear was half way between Bruzuryano and the shadow, the gigantic bear hit hard on the ground with his paw . Besides the cracks underneath the paw, there was only a pile of black rotten flesh and flattened and twisted armor . This strike was so powerful that the Death Knight’s body was smashed like mashed tofu . The ghost horse lost most of his body as well . Only its forelegs and head were still rolling on the ground .


After the successful strike, Bruzuryano turned around and rushed back to Anfey . He did not have extra fancy moves . The zombies on the way were either knocked high into the sky or smashed to the ground .

When Anfey saw Bruzuryano rushing toward him, Anfey slowed down his blade . He slayed a zombie on the ground with a backhand . He jumped high to get closer to Bruzuryano .

A strong magic surge came from the distance . Bruzuryano let out a deep roar . It sounded that he was warning Anfey of something .

Anfey was alert to it . He readjusted his internal energy to the maximum . He saw the Dark Knight and his spear in front of him . He jumped high and kicked at the tip of the spear to gain momentum to jump higher . He kicked the head of the Dark Knight with his right foot . As he jumped over the Dark Knight, he swung his blade at the knight’s neck . A deep cut appeared on the Dark Knight’s neck and almost cut it off .



When Anfey was in the air, he suddenly found that countless zombies and skeletons showed in the Fog of Decay . They moved towards Anfey in waves .

A bone spear flew over the sky, shooting at Bruzuryano among the zombies . The spear flew here and there in an unpredictable way . The bone spear was just a junior spell, but it was a pain . Besides Meteor magic and wind blades, usually magic did not have any physical damage . It could only cause damage with active elements . The physical damage Meteor magic and wind blades could cause was not strong anyway . It would not be life-threatening . A bone spear was special . The physical damaging power and magic power were about the same, which could cause a decent amount of damage .

Even Bruzuryano could not ignore the bone spear’s attacks . He slowed down a little bit and hit the bone spear as it approached to him . The bone spear shattered into pieces .

The next moment, a bone jail appeared in the sky and locked Bruzuryano’s gigantic body inside it . Before Bruzuryano could react, a row of bone walls seven yards tall suddenly appeared and blocked Bruzuryano’s way .

This bone wall was actually just a different form of magic Kekkai, because the zombies and skeletons from behind could pass the bone wall without any trouble .

Bruzuryano’s roaring got louder and louder . Broken limbs, blood, flesh, and broken bones flew out of the bone wall like rain drops . The magic surges in the distance got even stronger . Every strike Bruzuryano made shattered some of the bone jail . Many zombies and skeletons rushing at him were killed . A new bone jail appeared above him . The bone spears Bruzuryano worried about kept coming at him . The bone spears flew in the sky with a whooshing sound one after another .

Nobody was better at adjusting to such situations than Anfey . As he landed, he had already turned around . He waved his arms with big blades to create many images and slayed the Dark Knights and rotten zombies who were in his way .

If a top power were not beaten by those kinds of attacks, Anfey knew those necromancers only wanted to hold Bruzuryano in the fight . The reason they did that was to do something afterwards . It was easy to guess the people who were going to face the dangers were not Bruzuryano in the fight . It should be Anfey himself or Slanbrea in the wagon .

By the time the Dark Knight in the front had waved his spear, Anfey had already swung his big blade toward him . Before his wounds showed up, Anfey swung two more times . When when Dark Knight fell to the ground, his body had been chopped into a few sections . He lost all of his fighting ability .

Many people thought the key to winning a battle was to be fast . It was just a line in the movies . Whether a physical fighter or martial arts practitioner, they all stressed the importance of speed . No matter how physically or internally strong the fighters were, it would be meaningless if they could not be quick enough to hit their opponents . To a real martial arts practitioner, it was not very hard to be fast . The hard part was to combine the speed and power in a perfect ratio . The fastest boxer could punch thirteen jabs in a second, but these jabs would not damage the opponents as hard as one hard uppercut .

Anfey’s speed was super fast . He was so fast that the big blade in his hand had looked like a small tornado . He used all his power without any conservation . The last Dark Knight was knocked away with his ride . The leftover zombies did not allow him to pause for a second . He moved like a flagship on the sea fighting the waves . He rushed straight towards the wagon .

A bone wall suddenly grew out from the ground and blocked Anfey’s way . Anfey had waited for this for a while . Those necromancers who hid in the dark could not see him rushing out . A person who was good at learning from mistakes would always think about what mistake he made and also pay attention to the mistakes others made . Bruzuryano was trapped, because the flying bone spears made Bruzuryano paused a little bit . There was no attack that did not cost time . Instant magic still needed a certain time to hit the target . That was the reason that necromancers needed to use bone spears to make the initial attacks . It even took a very short time to activate elements . As long as Anfey was prepared for it, he believed he had the chance to escape .

By the time the bone wall appeared on the ground, Anfey had already swung his blade to the left, but borrowed the momentum to move to the right . As the bone wall grew to about two yards tall, Anfey pushed onto the bone wall with his hand to jump a few yards higher than the bone wall and ran away as fast as he could . There was an empty bone jail standing there .
