Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair.

Chapter 198 Death Knight
The black spiritual light, as if it were real, scattered in all directions, and the witch's swarm of poisonous bees seemed to have seen their nemesis. They fell to the ground one after another, and in less than a moment, they were lying on their backs, curled up and motionless.

It affected not only living things, but also those undead creatures that were not that powerful. Wherever the spiritual light reached, the undead creatures retreated one after another. A few crawling claws ran slower and were crushed into a pool of bloody flesh in an instant.

"What a ghost!"

Standing on the hillside, Mazarino's hands trembled and he pulled out two strands of his messy beard.

He was so sure he had never seen this thing before! Where did it come from?!
As heavy gasps sounded, a large hand covered with black scales pushed away the few remaining bees. Its owner took a step forward and crushed the bricks in front of Ron and the others, completely exposing its true appearance to everyone.

This undead creature was about 2.23 meters tall, wearing even thicker armor than Ivy, and the helmet that covered his head tightly had only a tiny crack, revealing a creepy red glow. His left hand was empty, but his right hand was holding a huge sword that was much larger than Canglan's Grip, and the blade was dragged on the ground, leaving a trail of sparks.

"Heh..." A cloud of black mist seeped out from under the helmet, and the creature's deep and powerful voice came from it, but its pronunciation sounded like the roar of a ghoul, and Ron couldn't understand what it was saying at all.

"He spoke in the Abyssal language. Why did you wake him up?" The hag's expression changed again and again, and finally she became furious. "Damn it! Why is there a Death Knight here?!"

"Ron, brat! I've already found the way. Our deal ends here!"

"Polly..." Ron opened his mouth and wanted to persuade her, but the witch didn't give him the chance. She smashed a wine glass full of muddy and dirty water on the ground. With a flash of dark green light, the witch Polly disappeared without a trace.

She actually escaped!

"..." As the witch escaped, the Death Knight's attention returned to Ron and the others. He raised the giant sword in his hand and held it with both hands. The language of the abyss like the devil's whisper echoed in everyone's ears.

Although no one could understand the true meaning of his words, his meaning was obvious: he was challenging everyone.

The Death Knight himself has the ability to command other undead creatures, but when he appears, all the undead flee from him. The meaning is self-evident: he can beat them all by himself.

"The witch is really untrustworthy!" Sera spat on the ground, "Fortunately, we didn't count on her to protect me!"

"I was careless just now, try again!"

"Death Knights are products transformed from fallen paladins, and they have an innate advantage in resisting magical effects!" Sylvia reminded them, and cast enhanced spells such as Giant Transformation on Sera and others. "Yelena, if you are afraid, just leave like the witch! Standing here will only get in the way!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Shadow Spirit put away the spiked chain and glared at her gloomily, "You must have forgotten that I am also a spellcaster!"

"Victoria, lend me some silver powder - protective array, undead creatures!"

After being enlarged, Sera was barely able to match the Death Knight in strength, but what she never expected was that when facing an opponent with equal strength, the Death Knight actually started to use his skills!
The Grip of the Blue Waves was depleted by the giant sword in the hands of the Death Knight and slid to the side. Sera had no time to regain her balance before she was kicked to the ground by the Death Knight. The giant sword streaked across the air with red and black flames and slashed down at her chest! "Sera!" At the critical moment, a tower shield blocked the barbarian and the Death Knight. The terrifying power was transmitted from the shield to the shoulder blades. Ivy was like being hit head-on by a battering ram. She flew backwards and smashed the large piece of bricks behind her.

If Yelena hadn't raised the protective magic circle in time, two more lives would have been lost just by one sword from the Death Knight!
"Control the water! Scorching rays! Lightning beams! Fireballs!" As the Death Knight continued to swing his greatsword to attack the protective array, Ron's spells swept towards him without any cost. However, the opponent's armor did not seem to be an ordinary item. Black weapons continued to flow out from the gaps in the armor. Ron's spells, whether they were direct hits or range coverage, were like a drop in the ocean and had no effect at all!

"Fear Slash!" Sera, who had gained time thanks to the Shadow Spirit's support, jumped up, and a layer of pink flames ignited on the blade of the greatsword in her hand, which was the effect of the Mind Gem.

"Although I don't like the color of this," Sera swung the sword with a grim smile, "but it's worth it to defeat you!"

"Zizi--" The Death Knight seemed quite afraid of this blow that could penetrate both his body and mind. He immediately gave up attacking and turned to defense. However, Sera, who had suffered twice at his hands, also played tricks this time. Just when the Grasp of the Blue Sky with the Fear Slash was about to pass by the Death Knight, the light on the sword suddenly went out, and a pink gem fell down, and was "just" caught in the hand of Constance who slid under the Death Knight.

"Fear Slash!"

The swift sword in the half-elf's hand glowed with a deadly light, and it rushed into the death knight's armor from bottom to top, leaving only a piece of the hand guard and hilt outside.

"Woo--" A painful buzzing sound came from the heavy plate armor. It seemed that even the Death Knight could not withstand such a fatal blow - even if it was a piece of cake for him.

"It works!" The planeswalker who was roaming the hillside in the distance became excited. "You guys still have a paladin?! Come on, come on, hit him a few more times, he can't hold on!"

"This Death Knight is not in his prime yet. You have a chance to defeat him!"

"You mean Rong——"

Constance grasped the Mind Gem tightly again, but before she could stand up, she was blown away by the Death Knight's sword. She had no idea how many bones were broken all over her body, and she lost consciousness before she hit the ground.

"What the hell is that armor of his?!" Shadow Spirit's eyebrows were squeezed together, but he saw that the Death Knight had temporarily stopped attacking. He leaned the giant sword on the ground, and a light blue glow appeared in his free hand.

"Stop him! He is casting a spell!" Mazarino on the other side could no longer stand by and watch. He jumped up from the hillside and tore his robe to pieces.

"I'm sorry, old friend!"

"Arcane Echo of Mazarino!"
