Chapter 78: The Battle Under the Ground (3)
A huge body with a height of three meters, covered with black steel armor, and a two-meter-long super steel giant axe in his hand. Except for no horses, it looked like a steel knight with super power. This was the true face of the huge black shadow. But this was not what surprised Ulysses. What really surprised him was that this steel knight was - headless.
Headless Horseman! The strongest units of the undead appeared in the war of the undead. Although their power was not as good as the nightmare death knights, their number far exceeds the death knights. There were about three hundred death knights who appeared in the war of the undead, while the number of Headless Horsemen was tens of thousands. The power of a general death knight was equivalent to that of a seventh-level master with Phantasm, while the power of a Headless Horseman was about ten times that of a sixth-level master. They formed the Order of Undead that could destroy everything. In the war of the undead, there were tens of millions of warriors of various races that died under the Order of Undead. So their image had long been deeply carved into the hearts of everyone on the continent; even if it was hundreds of years later, everyone still remembered what they looked like. There were even some people who practiced dark magic worshiping this invincible Order.
Even the extremely powerful dragon race could only be slaughtered when facing the Order of Undead composed of death knights and Headless Horsemen. In the battle with the Order of Undead, no race had ever defeated them, so the Order of Undead also had the title of "The Invincible Order". But the method of creating Headless Horsemen seemed to have long been lost! Legend had it that only that unknown demon king had the method of creating headless horsemen, and the necromancer on the continent could only make a general level 6 dark knight at most.
And the biggest difference between Headless Horseman and Dark Knight was that they had a certain degree of self-thinking. They could understand some words and could speak using an unknown method. According to legend, their heads were hidden in their bodies. There were also rumors that headless horseman's heads may grow again, and when their heads grew back, they would advance to death knights with a completely self-thinking mind. The way to judge whether they were likely to advance was to look at the level of intelligence they showed in their speech.
"The impertinent who dares to trespass upon this forbidden domain! You shall be sent into eternal sleep!!" The Headless Horseman didn't care what Ulysses was thinking, and after speaking, he raised the two-meter-long giant axe in his hand and slashed at Ulysses fiercely.
Ulysses stepped back quickly, avoiding the axe that could easily divide him in half.
With the sound of "Boom!", the giant axe plunged into the stone floor like cutting a cake. Under the strange power of Headless Horseman, a black shock wave erupted centering on the giant axe. This shock wave instantly blasted a big hole out of the floor, and at the same time it spread out like a wave.
"Damn it!" Ulysses did not expect the Headless Horseman's move to have such a terrifying additional power. He was caught off guard by the black shock wave and was sent flying six or seven meters away. And there seemed to be something like a curse attached to that black shock wave, a black halo appeared on his body in an instant.
But this black halo seemed to have no effect for Ulysses, and Ulysses didn't feel any physical discomfort. After a few seconds, it disappeared, as if it had never appeared before.
