Roleplay As Cultivator
25: Undead Knight (2)
The undead knight leaped strongly towards Tian Jie. He then turned his body forward once in midair while holding his greatsword with both hands to create momentum. Once in front of Tian Jie he swung his greatsword so strongly that he made a sound..
Swoosh~
“What - whatan”
Of course Tian Jie did not stay silent and immediately dodged backwards.
Boom~
The big sword strike hit the floor and made it collapse. The upper floor structure lost its balance and fell to the lower floor like a domino.
The Undead Knight who had fallen to the bottom floor was buried in ruins.
Tian Jie himself ran towards the gate and tried to get out as soon as possible.
“Crazy, this dungeon is crazy”
“Undead Knight it's no ordinary undead”
“But undead are definitely wearing item” magic
“How could he jump that far with the weight of his armor and greatsword it”
As Tian Jie ran through the long passageway the way he entered, suddenly he felt a sense of danger emanating from behind his back. He dodged to the side and not long ago a blue hand formed from the crashing aura where he was standing before.
“Sial”
Tian Jie saw the Undead Knight already chasing behind him with a distance of about fifty meters. He raised his hand and counterattacked hoping to slow it down a bit.
“Lightning spark (cantrip 0) !!!”
Bzzt~ Boom~ Bzzt~ Boom~ Bzzt~ Boom~
But it seemed that the attack did not have much effect on the Undead Knight.
“CIH !”
“Warp step (cantrip 0)”
Tian Jie increased his running speed.
The dungeon building was still shaking strongly. The roof of the hall continued to tear down dust and gravel. Even some cracked parts of the wall began to open wide.
“I need to get out of here”
Tian Jie began to make a distance with the Undead Knight. He passed through the two doors of the treasure room and began to see the light from outside. He looked back and saw the Undead Knight running while dragging his greatsword.
KakakaKAKaka~
Behind him was a red glow that filled the dark end of the long hallway. Slowly the light approached and grew. If observed with the heart - the light came from the fire, likely from inside the big room earlier.
Tian Jie sped up his steps again until he finally passed through the front gate.
“Finally out”
He stopped after being on a big rock to get a wider view.
“Where is Qingyue ?”
While in trying to find Huang Qingyue's whereabouts, something flew rapidly from within the dungeon. It shot towards Tian Jie. Getting closer to the target the object slightly missed down and hit the stone where Tian Jie stood.
Boom~
The huge stone instantly shattered and made Tian Jie bounce.
“kuh, what was it earlier”
He looked at the rest of the boulder and found a large sword stuck in the middle.
“Crazy !”
Tian Jie stared at the dungeon's entrance and found the Undead Knight standing above the collapsed door with a posture after throwing an object.
The Undead Knight slowly lowered his hand. He stood motionless with the eye holes in his armor burning green against Tian Jie.
A drop of sweat flowed down on Tian Jie's forehead.
‘He does not move?’
‘ ... what happened ?’
Tian Jie tried to analyze his current state. He still has to two spell charge. His body had not received serious injuries.
‘can I beat him ?’
After observing it for a minute Tian Jie realized the Undead Knight had stopped one step from the exit. When the Undead Knight moved forward, the part of his body that hit the sunlight would instantly emit smoke. The Undead Knight could only observe from within the shadows.
Tian Jie was a little relieved.
‘It looks like the main weakness of undead will be sunlight is still the same as the one in the TRPG’ game
‘Still plenty of time before sundown’
Tian Jie immediately jumped up high looking for Huang Qingyue.
“Warp step (cantrip 0)”
He found Huang Qingyue who was taking care of her sister among the large rock crevices on the edge of the crater wall. Tian Jie immediately approached the two of them.
While the Undead Knight was still silently watching Tian Jie who was drifting away. If Tian Jie was nearby, he would hear a faint owl chant sounding like it was at midnight. Under the feet of the Undead Knight it began to form a series of symbols that formed a circle of runes. The brighter the runes shimmered the stronger the owl sounds sounded.
“ … “
Tian Jie landed in front of the crack where Huang Qingyue was taking care of her sister.
“Qingyue, how is it ?”
Huang Qingyue looked towards Tian Jie for being summoned. The face was full of sweat with a look of worry and panic.
“Very bad Mr. Tian Jie”
“I've given him a cure but he's still unconscious”
“The body is very limp and .. try to see this Mr !”
He showed his sister's right arm blistered black with green veins shaped like a cobwebs. The veins pulsate and try to spread to other parts of the body.
“He may have been cursed by the Undead inside the place earlier”
“Does Mr Tian Jie have a way to help him ?”
Looking at Huang Qingyue's bleating face with eyes that were about to cry, Tian Jie could only remain silent. She did not have enough ability and strength to help Huang Qingyue's sister.
‘If only I had a Dispell spell or remove curse I could help him easily’
‘But that spell I might just be able to get from the system when I was at the spiritual fetal level’
Tian Jie closed his eyes and shook his head.
Huang Qingyue started to lose her spirit. Unable to resist the frustration Huang Qingyue's tears finally flowed out.
“No way .., why this could ..”
She wiped the hair that covered her sister's face.
“I'm sorry Xiaojun .. hik”
“Because of my fault, you ..”
Tian Jie was already not strong enough to see this condition and tried to encourage Huang Qingyue.
“Do not give up first Qingyue”
“Let's go to your Sect Elders soon to find a way to heal your sister”
Huang Qingyue : “T-but .. is there still time ?”
He saw the curse spreading in his sister's body.
Tian Jie patted Huang Qingyue's shoulder: “We don't know before trying, let's hurry we move”
Huang Qingyue wiped her tears and stood up.
“You are right Mr. Tian, we must not waste time”
Huang Qingyue immediately carried back her sister.
Tian Jie smiled: “Good, let's go !”
As they were about to move in search of a way up, a deep and cold sound of laughter resounded throughout the crater.
to~ke~ke~ke~ke~ K~KA~KA~KA~KA~KA~KA~
Tian Jie looked back getting a bad feeling.
Suddenly the sound of owl singing was also heard among the sounds of laughter.
“-.. .- .-. -.- -. .. --. .... -”
Slowly the sunlight above the friend becomes dim. Like a total solar eclipse is happening. The crater that had been clearly visible was slowly covered by a dark shadow.
Tian Jie's body trembled and the look on his face was a little panicked.
“Not possible, don't - don't this ..”
“Spell level three - DARKNIGHT !?”
The entire crater was finally covered in darkness like a sudden night and covered the sun.
In front of the dungeon entrance that was covered in a dark shadow, two small green-colored flame lights that were aligned looked like a pair of glowing eyes.
The Undead Knight stepped out of the dungeon. His steps were relaxed without hurrying. He slowly advanced without getting the slightest hitch.
