Alpha's replacement bride is destined mate-Chapter 222 I did not die that easily

​

The archers of the northern army began to panic under the onslaught of the undead, and many of them were pounced upon by the latter, and the bloody scene spread instantly over the field.

Marx grabbed his assault rifle and darted in the direction of the wizard, firing wildly at the undead as he ran. Bullets whistled through the air, hitting the undead and sending up plumes of smoke, but the monsters slowed only slightly before continuing their charge toward their target.

A hole was gradually opening in the Northern line. The undead broke through the front line and lunged at the archers, who panicked and drew their scabbards from their waists to resist, but many of them were still caught by the undead and torn to pieces in an instant.

Klaus rushes over to Marx, "Marx, you take Emily and the others and evacuate first. I’ll cover you."

" No." Marx said as he shot at the undead, "This time, I’ll cover you."

" That’s an order." Klaus’s tone was incredulous.

" I’m sorry, I can’t follow your orders." Marx said, pushing Klaus away, " Just go, Klaus."

Klaus glanced at the approaching undead. He knew he would not have a chance if he did not evacuate. So, without a moment’s hesitation, he turned at once and made a dash for the house where he had taken refuge.

As he ran, he used his wireless communications device to notify the helicopter of the landing. Emily was feeding Adam water when he rushed into the house.

"Follow me out of here, now. " Klaus said.

Emily’s eyes looked behind Klaus and she yelled, "Look out."

Klaus turns and an undead man with arrows sticking out of his body rushes in. He sprang straight at Krause. There is a shot, and the undead slowly rise to their feet after being hit by Klaus’s gun.

Klaus rushes forward and breaks the head of the undead while it is still standing. Klaus knows that the undead will come back to life in a short time. He had to get Emily and the others to safety in the shortest time possible.

" We must leave before the undead rises again, hurry." Klaus urged.

Emily rushed to help Adam up. She said anxiously to Klaus, " Dolly is still in the inner room."

" I’ll take care of her." said Klaus, preparing to head inside the room. That’s when he was stopped in his tracks by the sound of screams coming from outside the house.

Klaus looked back and saw that the helicopter, which had been parked in the clearing outside the house, had been surrounded by several undead, who were dragging the pilot out of the cockpit and tearing into his body. On the ground lay the bodies of two Northern warriors, the blood spurting from their throats like fountains.

" Damn it. " Klaus rushed to the outside of the house, one of the undead lunged directly at Klaus from the side, the gun in his hand accidentally fell to the ground.

Klaus immediately reveals his wolf claws and stabs the undead in the heart. The undead took a step back and fell to the ground. Then a second of the undead leaped at Klaus. Soon, more and more of the undead rushed toward the place, and they surrounded Klaus like a wall.

There was a strange red glow in the eyes of the dead. They did not immediately attack Klaus, but stood motionless, as if waiting for orders from their master.

"I didn’t think you were still alive, Klaus. " Elijah’s voice came from behind the group of undead, the sorcerer following him.

"You didn’t kill me that easily. " Klaus left them behind.

"You will still die today. " Elijah said, giving a look to the sorcerer beside him, so the sorcerer ordered the undead, "Kill him."

Klaus’s muscles tensed as he prepared to fight the undead to the death. Strange to say, however, the undead, who were otherwise as ferocious as hungry wolves, did not move after receiving the order to attack. The scarlet light in the eyes of the undead flickered and flickered, as if they were struggling against some invisible force.

An eerie silence filled the air, broken only by the slow drift of smoke that had not yet cleared from the battlefield.

At that moment a voice, ethereal and mysterious, was suddenly heard chanting from the sky. Klaus looked up to see five women in masks and white clothing appear in mid-air. Their white garments hunted the wind as if they were floating white clouds, radiating an aura of sanctity and inviolability.

One of the women recites an incantation, then takes her wand and points it at the undead, and a piercing white light, like a sharp lightsaber, shoots straight at the undead.

The undead struck by the white light instantly collapsed, their bodies melting rapidly like snowmen exposed to the burning sun, into a black mass of blood that flowed and spread over the ground, emitting a sickening stench.

As the undead fell one by one, Elijah stared with wide-open eyes at the incredible scene before him for a moment before his senses returned. He hurriedly urged the sorcerer in a loud voice, "Find a way to bring them back to life, now." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The sorcerer was about to open his mouth to recite an incantation, when a blue ray of light whistled down from mid-air like a spirit serpent, and precisely entwined his hands. Instantly the sorcerer uttered an agonized wail, and as he fell to the ground and rolled over and over, his body shook violently, and his already ugly face became distorted and hideous with pain.

"Marcel, you traitor. " The woman with the wand slowly landed on the ground, and she said to the sorcerer in a serious tone, "You have turned your back on the light and willingly acted as a lackey of the God of Darkness. Today we will take you back to be punished."

"You damned women." The sorcerer roared, his voice hoarse and frantic, the fire of hatred flickering in his eyes, "The God of Darkness will not spare you."

The sorcerer tried to struggle to his feet, but the force of the blue beam was too great, and he could only wriggle vainly on the ground.

" Shut up." chided the woman, and there was an undeniable authority in her voice. She then turned her head slightly and ordered the other witches behind her, "Take him away."

The other witches stepped forward at once, their staffs waving softly, and a soft light enveloped the wizard, so that he could make no more noise.

" Who are you?" Elijah questioned. His gaze swept back and forth over the witches, his eyes wary and hostile.

The women raised their heads a little, and gazed at Elijah through the eye-holes of their masks, their eyes deep and mysterious. "We are emissaries of the coven. You and Marcel sacrificed the living to the dark gods, and I should have taken you. But the Moon God had other plans for you."

The woman’s voice was calm and dignified, as if she were pronouncing the verdict of fate. Having said this, she paid no further attention to Elijah’s complicated expression, and turned to go.

Immediately after, a magic formation of golden color appeared on the ground, shining brightly like the sun descending into the mortal world. The runes on the magic array gleamed with a mysterious light. The few witches made their way to the centre of the magic array, their figures becoming more and more indistinct as the light increased.

In an instant the witches disappeared into the magic array as if they had never appeared, leaving only the still-dissipating light and the mysterious aura that lingered in the air.

" Now, it’s just me and you." Klaus stared at Elijah, the fire of battle burning in his eyes, " Let’s have a real duel."
