Under the cover of night, the woods become a maze of twists and turns. The branches trembling in the dim light are naturally associated with the limbs of some mollusks. The shrill cry of the night owl echoed over the heads of the crowd, as if to foretell a tragic ending. Such a scene is enough to make most people fear the way ahead, but not enough to shake the cheese team. "You have a group of trustworthy partners." Walking in the front of the old man with a lantern in his hand, looked back at several people who did not care about the atmosphere of terror, and then said to the mage.


    "Of course, they are the best." Cheese nodded. Jack, Lothar, Heather and Atticus were soldiers trusted by the mage, which was why they were members of the operation. Only cheese knew that the crusade against the Lich was not only to finish the battle in the capital, but also to solve the plague thoroughly. The Lich played a very important role in the information provided by the devil. The mage did not fully believe in the content of the deal, but this did not prevent him from eager to confirm some inferences through the Lich''s testimony. Therefore, there must be no loss in this raid.


    While speaking, Jack, walking behind the mage, gently pressed the cheese shoulder. "Wait a minute. There''s a fight." Wolf Walker whispered to his companions that Jack''s keen senses enabled Jack to distinguish the shouts mingled with the wind and the sway of the leaves. "Don''t worry, it''s the voice of my people. We just keep going. " The ghoul said plainly, his face even showed a smile.


    "Who are they fighting against?" The Grand Knight will not be prevaricated by such a sentence. Although it is not in the capital, it is not too far away from the city wall. If something at war with the Edwards won, he was obliged to warn the guards on the wall. The guide in linen cloth didn''t answer in a hurry. He just raised his lantern in his hand. The road ahead was still gloomy. However, at the end of the field of vision, the reflection of the moonlight seemed to be different. Some of the blue stones piled up together reflected the blue and white color in the moonlight. It was a cemetery. "Who are they fighting with? Oh, you have asked a rather profound question. There may be other answers to this question in different situations, but for now, I''d like to tell you the one you want to know the most. Both sides of the war are my people. They are all Edward


    "Civil war?" The mage frowned a little, but he was not surprised by the answer. "Yes, the patriarch has been away for a day with his followers. Their failure can be easily calculated. It''s a natural time for conflict, isn''t it? " Said the ghoul, and went on. When he talked about the fight between his own clans, his tone was bland, just like ordinary people talking about the weather. I could tell that he didn''t care about the winner of the civil war in the end.


    "Do you want us to help clean up the party?" Lothar asked, of course he was talking about the guys who were going to continue to support their patriarchs. "That''s not necessary." The old Ghoul shook his head and said without looking back, "this is the price the Edward family needs to pay. No matter which side wins in the end, it''s our choice. It''s not a fight you can help to maintain the old tradition or change at the moment. If they win with the help of external forces, they are still confused regardless of which side the winner is. Only the answers obtained with blood and life can guide the family to continue to exist. "


    "It sounds like you don''t care where the Edwards go?" Perhaps it was the old man''s indifference that made Heather ask. "I, I am very old, my dear lady. If you can live as long as I have seen so many lives gone, then you will have a special point of view on many things. It''s not us who are going to decay, the young people who are fighting for their faith. They are the ones who are qualified


    After this, Heather looked at each other, and they didn''t really understand what the other was saying. But Atticus, who was also in his twilight years, showed a thoughtful expression. The chief Knight looked at the iron rule in his hand and sighed. Then he said, "Mr. cheese is right. You are a man worthy of respect. I understand why the Edwards have been with us for so long, and the tradition you have followed is admirable. "


    "It''s a great honor for the iron knight to praise me. It''s ridiculous that when I was young, I wanted to compete with you. As a result, at the same age, you can still fight with your sword, but I can only take this lantern to show you the way. " The ghoul said with a smile that Atticus was undoubtedly a well-known knight, which made many people of his age chase him. At that time, a large number of good men headed by him emerged in the kingdom. However, time has changed. To now, there are few soldiers left in the world at that time. The iron knight has become the pioneer and the last legacy of the times.


    Atticus was also recalled by these words. His mouth showed a bitter smile, and the old knight''s face rarely showed a bitter expression. He whispered, "raise your sword to fight? Maybe I was just directed by this sword to fight. Even Harold''s been... " At this time, Lothar was just about to take hern''s hand and walk in front of Atticus. Seeing this weapon which had been belonged to the Blood Axe Lord for many years, was held in the young man''s hand. The scene made the iron Knight get up again. The bitter smile of his mouth turned into a smile, and his slightly bent body straightened up. "Ah, so what. The boys are no worse than we were. It''s time to get out of the stage. But now, I have to finish the last shift. "The shadowed woodland was left behind, and a huge moonlit cemetery appeared in front of the team. And the crowd also saw that, between the repaired graves, a large number of ghouls were biting each other, and the bloodiness of the scene made the most experienced butcher frown. "The elder! He''s coming with the mage "Come on! Open the way for the elder! Tear up these traitors Notice the horde of ghouls roaring, opponents of the patriarch''s desertion of the covenant. The fierce battle situation reached its climax at this moment. Loyal soul guards fought hard to open the way to the crypt for the cheese team, while the ghouls loyal to the clan leader tried hard to prevent the team from approaching.


    "I''m sorry, ladies and gentlemen, would you please run? I don''t want to put too much burden on young people. " Said the ghoul, known as the elder.
