Cresia's mood eased slightly, and Cross immediately began to prepare for defense.

He first arranged for Nia to conduct a precise reconnaissance. Cross believes that Nia, who was once a professional assassin, is not easy to expose in front of powerful enemies.

After all, Serena said that the members of the organization that replaced Cressia could easily defeat Cressia, and his combat power can be imagined.

He then told everyone to grab their bows and arrows, and then stood by in the unfinished fortress.

He needs to wait for Nia to complete the precise reconnaissance, and only when he has the relevant information about the enemy can he formulate a strategy to defeat the enemy.

......

On the other hand.

The Red Dragon Prince Xsatis and the Lich Eddard have come a long way, and they are already quite close to Coppermountain.

However, they did not see the flames of war coming from Tongshan Town, nor did they hear the cry of war.

They were confused, especially Eddard the Lich.

"Although Tongshan Town is very weak, it is not so weak, is it?

Do you think it's weird too? ”

"A little bit. ”

"It's so suspicious...... It's so suspicious......"

"When you get to Copper Mountain, you can know the truth of the matter. ”

"No, it will be too late, and I have a bad feeling. I'm going to send my skeleton to scout. ”

"Ed!"

"Xsatis, I won't listen to what you say this time. I am a person who has died once, and I have a high sensitivity to death, and I can now smell death approaching.

I have to send my skeletons. ”

"Whatever you want. ”

Eddard the Lich is already preparing to summon his skeletons.

In order to be able to kill Cross, in order to be able to completely destroy the town of Copper Mountain, the lich Eddard did not make any less preparations.

He would often go to some of the graveyards and use his mastery of necromancy to make the dead in the graveyard crawl out of the graveyard and become walking skeletons.

These skeletons will only be at the mercy of Eddard.

Soon, he had more than 200 skeletons at his disposal.

In addition, he also manipulated these skeletons to scavenge for weapons on the battlefield that had ended in the middle of the night.

As for why Ed didn't just turn those dead warriors into zombies, it was because wizards had to follow some rules. Wizards who are too ostentatious will end up miserable.

And now, Ed's more than 200 skeletons have become a force to be reckoned with.

Of course, he also knew Cross's strength, and to be on the safe side, he obtained a complete keel by various means. He consumed a lot of mana and used necromancy to transform the dragon bones into bone dragons.

The bone dragon is his trump card.

However, if it was just scouting, he only needed a few skeletons.

After drawing a simple summoning circle, Eddard the Lich begins to cast his summoning magic.

Ed's summoning magic is different from Serena's, which uses magic to create a magical creature, while Ed's summoning magic is really just teleportation magic.

He just teleported his skeleton soldiers from an extradimensional dimension to this world.

This extradimensional space is called the "Domain".

Not all wizards have "domains", and whether or not they have "domains" has nothing to do with whether or not the wizard is powerful.

Whether a wizard can have a "realm" or not is determined the moment he becomes a wizard.

The cause of this phenomenon has not yet been studied.

The great wizards identified the "realm" as an innate factor, believing that at the moment of birth, it was decided.

Ed, on the other hand, is a wizard with a "domain".

Ed's summoning array shimmered with purple brilliance, and then, the ground surrounded by the summoning array began to ripple like water, but the color of this water was also purple.

Then, two skeletons slowly rose from the purple waves of magic until their feet were firmly on top of the magic circle.

The glow of the magic array dissipated, and the eyes of the two skeleton soldiers were filled with two dark green phosphorus fires, and the two of them began to look around at a loss.

Eddard the Lich waved his finger forward, and the skeleton soldiers, like warriors commanded by the streets, immediately straightened up, and then staggered in the direction of Copperhill.

Xsatis watched the whole summoning process, and he said to himself, "This is magic?"

Although Xsatis is a dragon, he has never seen magic. After all, wizards are extremely rare to exist. And, in many places, magic and wizards are included in the category of legends.

As a result, Xsatis has always maintained a high curiosity about magic.

But after he witnessed Eddard's skeletal summoning, he was a little disappointed.

In his opinion, the magic of the legend seems to be a bit flashy.

It took time and effort to summon only two skeletons with low combat ability......

Eddard the Lich also heard a hint of contempt in Xadis's tone, and he said, "Xsatis, these two skeletons were only scouted by me, don't underestimate my magic. ”

"Hmm. Xatis replied lightly.

Ed had become somewhat accustomed to Xsatis's indifference. However, when he saw that Xsatis had stopped in the same place as himself, he asked suspiciously, "Why are you not leaving?

"You've summoned the Scouting Skeletons, at least to put them to work. ”

"Ho ho ho, you don't have an accurate judgment of the battle situation between the two sides, do you?

In this case, it is better to learn from me and be cautious. ”

Xsatis chuckled awkwardly.

Neither of them moved forward, ready to wait for the results of the skeletons' scouting.

......

The two skeleton soldiers, with their dirty broadswords in their hands, shook their bodies and walked forward.

It didn't take long for the skeletons to be spotted by Nia, who was sent out by Cross to scout.

This discovery surprised Nia. Because, except for the one time in the Twilight Mountains, she had never seen a moving skeleton.

Moreover, the skeletons' eyes were glowing with green phosphorus fire.

She realized the gravity of the matter in an instant.

The appearance of the skeleton soldiers showed that the situation was beyond Nia's control, and she did not dare to move forward rashly, she chose to return to Copper Mountain Town immediately.

......

As soon as she arrived in the city, Nia reported the situation to Cross, "Lord Cross, I found two skeletons, living skeletons, with knives in their hands. ”

"Skeletons!?" Cross was a little surprised.

"I'll just say it's not Britney and Sunset City's troops. Cressia on the side hurriedly said.

"Well, it seems that the information I got at the beginning was indeed inaccurate.

But what about these two living skeletons?"
