Since the system became my girlfriend

Almost the instant the soldier turned into an undead, the other soldiers around him swarmed forward and cut him down to the ground.

"Where's the priest?! Where's the priest? Quick! Cleanse him!" shouted the junior officer in front. Even if these corpses infected by the undead were knocked down again, they had to be cleansed by a priest before they could be laid to rest. Otherwise, they would get up again after a while and wreak havoc in the area as undead.

"They're here!" A chaplain from the army arrived at the front and began chanting a spell to purify the soldier infected by the undead.

Soon, the priest finished his spell, the infected soldier was purified, and he could now be buried.

"Bury them on the spot!" Lord Daryl waved his hand and then said to his soldiers, "The Grand Marshal is trapped ahead, everyone speed up!"

"Yes!" With Daryl's command, the army sped forward and soon arrived in front of a small valley.

"This is Lani Valley," the adjutant said to Lord Daril as they approached. The sounds of battle could already be faintly heard ahead.

"Charge! Go save the teacher!" Lord Daryl shouted.

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the army rushed into the Lani Valley.

Su Rui followed Lord Daril and joined the army as they stormed into the Lani Valley.

Upon entering the valley, Su Rui saw a group of people being besieged by a large number of undead in the distance. These undead were at least level 60, and the most dangerous thing was that there were thousands of them. Meanwhile, the Xuanwu City soldiers who were still holding out only had a few dozen left.

When Marshal Salo left, he took a squad of 120 soldiers with him. Now, it was clear that most of them had been killed. Moreover, the fallen soldiers had been infected and turned into undead. They frantically rushed towards their former comrades and attacked them with their sharp claws.

"Quickly! Quickly! Rescue them!" Lord Daryl shouted, and then he took the lead, leaping up and charging into the undead camp with his longsword.

"Crack crack crack crack..." Lord Daril wielded his greatsword. He was a level 85 leader-level boss, and these level 60-70 undead were no match for him. With each swing of his sword, the undead were cut down as easily as chopping vegetables.

The accompanying chaplains followed closely behind, chanting purification spells to cleanse all the infected corpses.

In the blink of an eye, Lord Daryl had already fought his way to the innermost part of the encirclement. He rushed into the midst of the trapped soldiers and shouted, "Teacher! Teacher, where are you?"

"Lord City Lord! The Grand Marshal has rushed into the valley!" a soldier shouted.

"How many men did he bring?" Lord Daryl asked.

"There are only about a dozen people," the soldier replied.

"Damn it! Charge with me!" Lord Daryl cursed, then led his elite troops in another charge.

Daryl's core guard consisted of elite level 75 warriors. When these men charged into the undead ranks, it was as if they were entering an empty field. Led by Lord Daryl, they were like a hot knife cutting through butter, encountering no resistance whatsoever. They directly broke through the undead encirclement and continued to rush into the valley.

Daryl continued his charge forward, but his soldiers had also arrived on the battlefield. These guys were also fresh troops, and with their addition, the morale of the soldiers who were originally surrounded immediately soared. Then, together with these allies, they slaughtered all the undead around them.

Then the priests appeared and purified the bodies of the dead. The warriors then buried all the bodies, including many of their former comrades. Although they had been purified, due to religious customs, these soldiers who had been infected could not return to their ancestral graves, so they could only be buried here.

That is why the soldiers, like Lord Daryl, deeply hate the undead. If they die in battle against the undead, they are not even entitled to return to their ancestral graves and can only be buried on the spot by their comrades.

The battle here is almost over. Su Rui carefully followed Lord Daril. He didn't rush over earlier because the undead monsters around him were too high-level. If they touched him, they could send him back to the city for free.

When Su Rui arrived inside the valley, the battle was nearing its end. Lord Daril was unparalleled in combat power, and under his leadership, the elite soldiers were even more spirited. They quickly defeated the undead in the valley.

"My lord, have you found the Grand Marshal?" Su Rui asked.

"No!" Lord Daryl frowned.

"Lord City Lord! There's a survivor here!" Just then, a soldier suddenly shouted.

"Where?" Lord Daryl looked up abruptly and rushed over.

Su Rui followed City Lord Daril to the front, where there was a wounded Xuanwu City soldier. One of his arms was missing, and his back was covered in bloody wounds.

"Soldier, where is the Grand Marshal?" Lord Daril asked.

"The... the Grand Marshal... he..." The soldier was severely injured and spoke weakly.

"Priest! Priest, come quickly!" the adjutant shouted.

The soldier waved his hand, knowing he was deeply poisoned and the priest's arrival was useless. He took a deep breath and, with all his might, said, "The Grand Marshal has been captured by the Brotherhood..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldier's head lolled to the side and he died. Immediately afterward, his wound began to twitch.

"Sir, be careful! He's about to turn into a zombie!" the adjutant shouted.

Just then, the zombie soldier stood up again, but his eyes were glazed and his movements were stiff.

"Alas! Let's help him get rid of this burden!" Lord Daryl sighed.

"Yes!" Several soldiers nodded, then stepped forward and cut the zombie soldier to the ground. At this moment, the priest stepped forward and began to cast a spell to purify his corpse.

"Moraka Brotherhood! You just wait!" Lord Daryl clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot.

“Lord of the City…” Su Rui stepped forward at this moment.

"Mercenary! I'm giving you a mission now!" Lord Daryl said to Su Rui.

“Lord City Lord, please speak.” Su Rui nodded immediately.

"Find the teacher! Bring him back!" Lord Daryl said, looking directly into Su Rui's eyes.

"I'll do my best!" Su Rui nodded.

"No! I don't want your best effort, I want you to save him! Otherwise... you'll have to leave Xuanwu City forever!" Lord Daryl said to Su Rui.
