At this critical moment, Gregory Gerrard rushed out of the portal in the middle of the town with a sword in both hands.
He slashed at the ghost closest to him. The ghost was cut in half and disappeared into a puff of black smoke.
Unexpectedly! Gerrard's attack was effective against the undead. He didn't use any magic and could kill the undead with just his sword.
Next, Gerrard swung his sword at the Undead, killing countless of them in an instant. More and more undead approached him. At this moment, he stabbed his sword into the ground and took out an item from his pocket.
It was a glass bottle. He opened the lid with both hands. A dazzling beam of light shot out from the bottle, and the huge beam of light almost enveloped the entire town.
For a moment, almost all the undead cried out in pain. Then, most of them turned into black smoke and disappeared.
Some of them were directly driven away. No one knew where they went.
"It's the grace of the Sun God, the Light of Saen!" Commander Dwayne knew clearly how precious this treasure was.
Indeed, this was a resource that only bishops in the Church could use. In the Church, the highest leader was the Pope. Under him were several archbishops, and under the archbishops were thousands of priests. Bishops had a very high status and were extremely rare.
As for the Knights, the highest officer was the Knight Commander, who directly answered to the Pope. Under him were the Knights of the Knights, and under them were the Trainee Knights and Knight Squires.
Paladin was an honorary title and also a proof of strength. At present, there were only ten of them in the Church. They were the Dragon Paladin, Tiger Paladin, Bear Paladin, Leopard Paladin, Deer Paladin, Lion Paladin, Wolf Paladin, Snake Paladin, Horse Paladin, and our young Eagle Paladin, Gregory Gerrard!
Gerrard turned the tide of the battle with his own strength.
A Freyden soldier who was waiting for the undead to chop him with an axe didn't expect to survive. Many people were like him, surviving in a moment of life and death.
This powerful Light of Saen had the power to drive away the undead. When Gerrard came back to Kelandil to ask for help, the Pope gave him such a treasure and asked him to solve the urgent problem first. After that, he would come back to discuss further, because the Pope had something to tell us. Most importantly, the Light of Saen was too rare and precious. It could not compete with the number of undead, so it was not a solution.
At this moment, those powerful Ghost Riders hadn't all been dispersed or expelled. The remaining dozen or so Ghost Riders looked at Gerrard.
Gerrard's two-handed sword had been blessed by the church's holy water when he returned to St. Antonio's Cathedral in Kelandil, so it could attack the undead even without using magic. However, the Holy Water was limited. Not everyone's weapon could be blessed by the Holy Water. Only those who believed in the seven gods and were blessed by the gods could use this holy water. As for the holy water from other channels, it was a completely different matter.
The Ghost Riders charged at Gerrard furiously, and Dwayne, the captain of the Falcon Knights, happened to stand in front of one of them.
Dwayne, who wasn't riding a horse, stood on the ground, holding his iron staff and shield as he took a defensive stance against the charging Ghost Rider.
He knew that if so many Ghost Riders charged at Gerrard, even a Paladin would not be able to handle it.
Dwayne made up his mind to kill as many Ghost Riders as he could.
Just as the repulsive Ghost Rider on the Underworld Ghost Horse brandished its greatsword and was about to reach Dwayne, Dwayne instantly cast an Advanced Light Spell, Barrier of Light!
A huge transparent wall of light instantly blocked the Ghost Rider's path, and the Ghost Rider was thrown off his horse. Even the Ghost Rider hadn't expected this. His whole body was emitting a green light, which was particularly frightening in the dusky sky.
The Ghost Rider immediately slashed at the Light Barrier with his greatsword, once, twice, thrice …
Dwayne also kept using the magic power in his body to maintain the spell. After all, he wasn't a mage and didn't have much magic power. He was only a bit more powerful than an elite knight, and was also the captain of the Falcon Knights.
Finally, cracks appeared on the Light Barrier from the Ghost Rider's greatsword, and with a bang, it completely shattered.
Captain Dwayne didn't vomit blood, but he was seriously injured. However, he felt that he had achieved his goal by stalling for time. Now, it was time to fight to the death.
This middle-aged man from Frostwolf Constellation, who was born on December 15th, 1450, had a full beard, and occasionally had a dry sense of humor. He probably would never have imagined what would happen in the next second.
The Ghost Rider swung his greatsword at Captain Dwayne, who blocked the attack with the elite knight shield in his hand. But the Ghost Rider freed up his left hand and directly pierced Captain Dwayne's abdomen.
This time, Captain Dwayne spat out a mouthful of blood. This man who liked to rub his nose when he was nervous, stubbornly liked to abide by the rules, and had extremely high moral standards, fell powerlessly in front of the Ghost Rider just like that.
At this moment, his armor was extremely heavy. The moment he fell to the ground, Captain Dwayne recalled the oath he had made when he joined the Falcon Knights.
"I swear on my sword that I will defend all justice and freedom with my life! Anyone who dares to make an enemy of the Falcons will eventually become a ghost under the Falcons' sword! We're brothers, we're family, we're Falcon Knights! "
For his subordinates, Captain Dwayne had done his best. He had fulfilled his duty as a parent, and before he died, he even felt unprecedentedly relaxed.
"The future is up to you." Dwayne could finally rest in peace.
At this moment, we're also fighting another Ghost Rider. The few of us are only working together to hold back one Ghost Rider.
Catherine, who was rushing over from afar to help Dwayne, saw this scene with her own eyes. She watched helplessly as the captain collapsed in front of her.
"No!" Her red hair fluttered in the wind.
Catherine rushed over like a madwoman, but the Ghost Rider had already mounted his horse and charged at Gerrard.
At this moment, at least eight Ghost Riders had already surrounded Gerrard. Gerrard didn't ride a horse and held his sword with both hands.
A layer of light gradually condensed on his two-handed sword. This was the magic of the Sword of Light. His body also emitted light. This was the Blessing of Light, which could increase his speed, strength, and so on.
His face was full of determination, as if it wasn't something he should have at his age. The Falcon Knight insignia on his chest was dazzling.
All the Ghost Riders charged at Gerrard at the same time …
