Chapter 0436: Call it a day
As the light enveloped Arthas's body, two diametrically opposed sounds came from his mouth: a groan of pain and a groan of comfort.
Black smoke was rising all around him, like a steak on an unoiled grill.
Arthas's gaze fell on Renard through the intense light, and a relieved smile appeared on his face: "Thank you, I finally don't have to be at the mercy of the devil. ”
It was Earl Ian's voice, a little melancholy, some nostalgia.
As soon as the words fell, there were several cracking explosions in his body, and the black armor on his body exploded instantly, and the dazzling holy light seeped out from the cracks, and then burned all over his body, directly dispelling the evil aura that swirled around him.
After the light disappeared, Count Ian's body fell straight to the ground, he was not completely dead, his chest was slowly heaving, but it seemed that he might not live long.
Reynard groaned for a moment, strode forward, and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"
The body was still Arthas's appearance, but he knew that the soul in his body had been replaced by Count Ian.
Count Ian turned his head with difficulty, with a wry smile on his face: "Renard, congratulations on your victory, I am very happy." ”
Renard opened his mouth, and finally sighed: "Don't you hate me, you have become the way you are, I'm afraid you can't get rid of dry cleaning with me." ”
Count Ian took a deep breath: "It's none of your business, it's a predestined fate, in fact, I've thought about cooperating with demons, really, but I can't pass the conscience level." ”
In the face of a desperate situation, people can do many crazy things, but no matter how crazy a person is, he has a bottom line after all, and his bottom line is not to betray his own race, and he can't let the entire Wollaston family be disgraced by himself.
After a long silence, he suddenly said, "Can I ask you for a favor?"
Renard nodded without hesitation: "As long as it doesn't violate morality and law." ”
Earl Ian smiled a little ugly: "I don't want to be stigmatized for colluding with demons, I don't want the Wollaston family to be spurned, and I don't want my wife and children to become sinners. ”
Lei Ye nodded again, this is not difficult to do, and the other party really did not collude with the demon: "Don't worry, everyone will know that Count Ian was killed in the battle with the demon slave." ”
Earl Ian's eyes glistened with tears, and there was a pair in them
The attachment of this world slowly closed his eyes.
Renard sighed tiredly, and ordered Alka and the others, "Bury him well." ”
As soon as the words fell, Earl Ian suddenly sat up like a corpse, frightening the people around him to retreat again and again, and Lei Ye sat directly on the ground.
I heard Earl Ian groan in pain twice, and said, "I think I can save it again." ”
Everyone: "......"
This is the end of the Count of Meredith and the Duke of Duncan's crusade against Ignaz City, and the ending is satisfactory to both parties.
All three sides claimed that Earl Ian was imprisoned in the city by a demon slave and coerced him into confronting the counties of Meredith and Duke Duncan.
Earl Ian refused to comply, and secretly sent cronies to pass on the news, so the county of Meredith united with the Duke of Duncan to rescue.
Although this explanation is flawed, it can also fool the past, but it is a pity for those soldiers who died in battle.
According to statistics, the Count Meredith led the crusaders with 496 killed and more than 10,000 wounded, and the defenders of Ignaz lost 974 killed and 2,000 wounded.
This was the result of Earl Ian's timely appearance and his order to the defenders not to continue to resist.
If street fighting starts, the number of casualties is estimated to have multiplied several times or even more than ten times.
In the aftermath of the battle, Count Ian announced that he would step down as lord and hand over the city of Ignath to Governor Renard in gratitude for his selfless help and guilt for the deaths of the soldiers.
In fact, it is difficult for Earl Ian not to step down, but Lei Ye disagrees in the first place, what is the reason for Lao Tzu's hard work to bring people over to beat you?
The second is that his body has been transformed by Demon Gilbert and the Lich King Arthas, and now he has become a veritable death knight, and let the death knight manage the human territory, I'm afraid no one will agree.
However, despite the loss of his realm and people, Earl Ian has fully inherited the power of the Lich King and his immortal body.
Renard tried to dissuade him several times, but he stopped Vivien's desire to destroy him and kept him to serve the cause of fighting demons.
However, he always felt a little awkward with a living dead person by his side, so Lei Ye got along with a more proper placement method: "I am going to arrange for you to go to the Duchy of Oslo." ”
"Duke of Oslo
Country?" Earl Ian, who was tasting various foods and trying to regain his sense of taste, raised his head and asked suspiciously, "It seems to be an area occupied by demons, why did you arrange for me to go there?"
Lei Ye looked at him deeply when he heard this, this guy is cunning and cunning, he doesn't believe that the other party doesn't understand what he means.
Seeing Lei Ye's eyes, Count Ian's expression was a little unnatural: "I know what you think, but I can't solve any problems by myself, let alone do anything earth-shattering." ”
Renard shrugged his shoulders undeniably: "Don't worry, I'm not ready to let you go by yourself, I will arrange someone to accompany you, your task is only to secretly protect the safety of the other party." ”
Earl Ian frowned and asked, "Who? General Ray Dawang or General Rolson?
Renard shook his head and sneered, "Do you two need you to protect them?"
Earl Ian thought about it, it really made sense, he was now at most a mid-level epic-level martial artist, and those two perverts both had the strength of a high-level epic-level martial artist, so they didn't need him to protect them secretly.
However, this made him even more uneasy: "Will it be dangerous for me to go by myself?"
Earl Ian and Duke Edmund are two extremes, one cautious and the other fearless.
Lei Ye was speechless: "The only epic-level martial artist in the Principality of Oslo died a few years ago, otherwise how could the demon quickly occupy this country." ”
Earl Ian slapped his thigh: "Wouldn't the person who killed the other party be even more powerful." ”
Renard rubbed his temples: "I just asked you to act in secret, to find out the situation in the Duchy of Oslo, it would be better if you could gain a foothold, now it is divided, in addition to demons, there are still several human forces." ”
As he spoke, he shouted outside the door, "Come in." ”
As the words fell, Jimmy strode in.
In a few years, the original little boy has grown into a strong young man.
Lei Ye pointed at him and said to Count Ian: "Knowing each other, his name is Jimmy, the commander of the seventh infantry division, the second regiment, and the third battalion. ”
Earl Ian looked Jimmy up and down, then smiled, "Do you think this little guy with no hair can take on this responsibility?"
Immediately after, he noticed Lei Ye's straight eyes, he opened his mouth, and said helplessly: "Okay!
