Chapter 1071: Combined attack (3)
When the flames disappeared, the Death Knight appeared again.
Only this time, the Death Knight looked completely different from before.
There were burns that were all over the Death Knight's body and it seemed like bits of its bones had been burnt to ashes.
Unlike before where it was able to use a slash to sweep away the flames, the Death Knight had been hit head on with the flames this time and hadn't been able to stop it.
That meant that the flames had burnt the Death Knight directly, which caused quite a bit of damage.
Though it had to be known that not just any flames could do this kind of damage to the Death Knight. Even if it hadn't defended against the flames, the natural defenses of its body were not weak.
Only flames that were at a certain level would be able to hurt it in the first place.
That was the level that Joan's flames were at.
The supplements that were given to Joan had its use after all.
But the injuries that the Death Knight had suffered didn't last for long. There was a reason why it was a high ranked undead in the first place.
As long as it had the dark energy, it would be able to heal itself.
That dark energy flowed to the parts of the Death Knight that had been burned away by the flames and started repairing it. The parts of its body that had been whittled away by the flames were renewed by this dark energy.
The dark energy even seemed to create bone seemingly out of nowhere. Though if one looked closely at the feet of the Death Knight, they would be able to see the bones from the other undead flowing into the Death Knight.
It seemed that it was regenerating from the bodies of the other undead.
After recovering, the first thing that the Death Knight did was try to find what had shot the flames at it. The fiery red glow in its eyes made it seem like the Death Knight wanted revenge for what happened.
It was just that the Death Knight didn't get this chance.
The wyvern wasn't the only thing attacking it, there was something else that had been attacking it the entire time.
While the Death Knight was looking up, Alidus was already swinging his club at the Death Knight's head.
The Death Knight being distracted caused it to be hit right in the head.
Alidus hadn't held back at all with that swing of his and it created a crack in the head of the Death Knight, but that wasn't enough to take it down. There was a dark energy that appeared around the Death Knight's head after its head was cracked.
This dark energy started healing the Death Knight while also seemingly attacking Alidus' club.
It seemed like it was invading the blue light of the club, as if it was about to corrode it. Alidus had no choice but to pull back when he saw this as he was worried that his club would be damaged by the dark energy.
But even though its head was cracked, it didn't stop the Death Knight like it would have stopped a normal person. The Death Knight was an undead and it wasn't limited by the same limitations as normal humans.
It was able to fight even if it suffered injuries that might have been considered fatal for humans.
As such, it raised its sword while its head was still healing itself.
It really seemed like the Death Knight was about to cut Alidus down, but it didn't get the chance.
It was smushed into the ground by a large wyvern claw that suddenly fell down from the sky. The wyvern claw smashed it right into the ground and there were cracking sounds that came from it.
When the wyvern claw came up, it revealed that a few of the Death Knight's ribs had been cracked from the impact.
The Death Knight had a swirl of dark energy around it at this point, which was doing all that it could to try and heal the Death Knight. But it was also clear at this point that the Death Knight had been quite injured as its injuries finally affected its movement.
It became slower than before, as if it wasn't able to move properly.
It seemed like the damage that it was taking really was taking a toll on it.
Just like this, we continued attacking it.
Klein and the others up top were shooting down flame breaths to deter the undead from coming forward to help the Death Knight.
With all of us working together, it seemed like the Death Knight was getting more and more hurt. More and more of the Death Knight's bones were being cracked from our attacks.
At this rate, it seemed like a matter of time before the Death Knight fell.
The Death Knight didn't go out without a struggle as it attempted to fight back, but it just wasn't able to retaliate when we ganged up on it like this. It almost seemed like we were bullying it with the way that we surrounded it like this.
Of course, that wasn't true since it was still a dangerous Death Knight.
If it was allowed to retaliate, there was no doubt that it would have been dangerous for us.
Finally after a long while, it seemed like the Death Knight had run out of steam.
It seemed like the Death Knight was ready to be taken down with a final blow.
Both me and Alidus didn't hesitate at all as we attacked at the same time.
It was just that while Alidus was able to land the final blow and turn the Death Knight's skull into dust with his club, Joan and I weren't able to reach the Death Knight.
That was because there was this net of dark energy that suddenly came up from the ground that surrounded us.
