In the depths of the palace, which was completely composed of ashes and bones, two clouds of gray-green light lit up, and a cold female voice came out of them: "Brother Wang, I asked you to be my Minister of Finance, not to ask you to ask questions, but to help me solve problems, if I have to deal with everything personally, what use do I want you?"

Naren Toya's voice was not high, but it was accompanied by a cold wind.

A cold wind that freezes people's souls directly.

Prince Zana shuddered involuntarily, wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist, and replied again and again: "Yes, what Her Majesty the Empress said is very true, I have already expected this situation, after all, the total population here is a certain number, so I have come up with a few solutions." ”

"Tell me about it. Empress Narentoya spoke again.

"The first method is to keep sheep in captivity, in a short period of time, we can't shroud the entire East Odin steppe under the sacred sanctuary, most of the grasslands are barren there, and the plague that envelops here has begun to dissipate, can we drive back some of the tribal herders, let them continue to graze here, let them pay taxes in the form of corpses and bones.

In this way, we will have a stable financial source, which is the way to go, but this method, not to mention the slow results, there is still a lot of danger in it, before the sheep are completely tamed, they may rebel, we need to form a huge fence with the sacred sanctuary, and cut them off in different cages. ”

The flock in the mouth of Prince Zhana is naturally not a real flock, but their former clansman, the Odin Orcs.

When they were transformed into immortals, their concepts were also subtly changing, gradually no longer seeing humans as their own kind, but equating them with the flock, and they became higher-level predators.

"Do you have a captive goal?" said Empress Narentoya's voice, which was neither sad nor joyful, making it impossible to grasp her true thoughts.

"I have picked a few tribes in a desperate situation, and I believe that it will not be difficult to persuade them to accept our good intentions, unless they want to go to extinction. A hint of hesitation flashed across Prince Zana's face and said, "It's just ......"

"Just what?" Narentoya's voice showed a hint of displeasure, "Don't babble, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

"For this kind of thing, it is better to send military support, which is the safest. Prince Zana replied truthfully.

"I will send 30,000 elites to you, if you can't handle this, I will only ask you. Empress Narentoya said cleanly, "If it is done, I pray to the Goddess to give you the Holy Fire, and it is not impossible for you to go further." ”

This is a typical combination of grace and power.

This kind of trick has not been used less by Prince Zhana before, but at this moment, Prince Zhana still has an unconcealed heat in his eyes, and asked, "Is it really possible?"

Empress Naren Toya snorted coldly and said, "Are you questioning my abilities?"

The biting chill began to permeate again.

This time it wasn't just Prince Zana's feelings, there was a thin layer of ice spreading rapidly around him.

Not only is the power of the Undead Empire growing, but the strength of Empress Naren Toya is also growing, and a single thought can easily kill them.

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Prince Zhana hurriedly knelt on the ground and explained in a loud voice, "I have no intention of doing so, I just said some nonsense because I was too excited, but rest assured, Your Majesty, I will do my best to complete this task." ”

"Get out!" Naren Toya retracted her thoughts, Prince Zhana has been using it fairly well in the past few years, and she doesn't want to replace it because of the other party's words, the Undead Empire has never lacked warriors and cannon fodder who are charging into battle, but there is a lack of people with brains like Prince Zhana, "Didn't you just say that there are several plans?

"The other way is to start with that fool in Ulaanbari, and once they start attacking the Broken Blood Fortress, there will definitely be no shortage of corpses. Prince Zana then offered advice.

"No matter how stupid Ulaanbazhi is, he won't hand over the corpse of a warrior to us, let alone a smart man like Skambari by his side!" said Empress Narentoya coldly.

"If it is simply to ask for it, of course they will not give it to Ulaanbazhi, after all, we are only temporarily ceasing. Prince Zhana sneered, "But their condition is involuntarily, and if they don't break through the broken line this time, hunger will tear them apart."

We can enter into further cooperation agreements with them, and if they are willing to put all the corpses at our disposal, we can provide them with some military support, and even help them break through the broken line.

The possibility of Ulaanbari breaking through the line of defense is very small, and I believe that Ulaanbari himself is very aware of this.

If the cooperation is good, we don't even need to spend a single soldier, there will be a steady stream of corpses to expand our military strength. ”

"It's a good idea, but it's not the right time. Empress Narentoya said flatly.

"The timing is not right?" Prince Zana was stunned, not fully understood.

"Ulaanbari has not been cornered, and when they are in a desperate situation, they will come to the door again without our initiative. Naren Toya's words were full of confidence, "When the time comes, the initiative will be in our hands." ”

"Her Majesty the Empress is wise, it turns out that this method, Your Majesty has thought of it a long time ago, and it is me who sacrifices ugliness. Prince Zana exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.

"It's good that you can think of this, but there are other options. Narentoya enjoyed the compliment.

"The third option, in fact, Your Majesty also knows, is to find other targets to continue the war, as long as the war does not stop, we have a steady stream of materials and soldiers. "Didn't Your Majesty send Chagan and Ozhitan south in search of new prey?"

"Brother Wang is really a smart man, and he can't hide anything from your eyes. Empress Naren Toya did not deny it, "Calculate the time, Brother Chagan, you should have a preliminary confrontation with that Eternal Night Commander, I don't know how to win or lose!"

"Your Majesty's question, I can answer. A tall man wrapped in a thick chill walked in quickly, and behind him a large group of grey knights rushed forward, trying to intercept him.

Obviously, he was directly attacking the palace.

"My Excellency, my General, is there good news for me to tell you for such a reckless incoming?" said Narentoya's tone, with a deep sense of displeasure.

She liked the order of dignity and inferiority, and did not like this kind of reckless behavior, even Prince Irbis, who was the first to unswervingly support her.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but I am not despising your dignity, but the situation is urgent. After Prince Iribis saluted respectfully, he couldn't wait to say, "The Bone Eagle has just brought back the news that the Eternal Night Army has led a large-scale army to attack our sacred shelters, and five shelters have been broken in a row half a day ago. ”

Prince Zhana on the side exclaimed, his face full of shock: "How is it possible to break five sacred shelters in a row? Ordinary people enter the range of the sacred shelter and can't even find the road, how can it be easy to find the location of the sacred shelter? Not to mention that there is a powerful guardian given by the goddess there! Could your news be wrong?"

Iribis sneered and retorted: "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can personally check the news brought back by the Bone Eagle. ”

As soon as Iribis sent it, the bone eagle on his shoulder immediately vibrated its wings and flew towards the depths of the Gray Bone Palace.

A gray-green light swept through.

The bone eagle hadn't gone far before it fell to the ground with a thud.

The soul fire in its body had been swept away by the gray-green light just now.

After a few seconds, Empress Narentoya's voice came out again, "So that's the case, this time we underestimated our opponents, I didn't expect a military leader who had just been established not long ago to use magic to such an extent, it really deserves to be the orthodox remnants of the Andes Empire, it seems that the rumors that they have obtained the inheritance of the Andes Empire are true!"

The detection methods of the Undead Empire are also much stronger than ordinary people think.

They do not deliver the message through the undead birds, which themselves are the carriers of the message.

Those who are undead can read the memories they carry by directly devouring the soul fire in the bodies of the undead birds, as if they were seeing them with their own eyes.

What this bone eagle brought back was not only the news that the Eternal Night Army Leader had broken the Five Towers in a row, but even brought back part of the process of the war, so that Naren Toya had a certain understanding of the strength of the Eternal Night Army Leader.

"I also ask Your Majesty the Empress to allow me to mobilize troops to support me. "I'm afraid that the other side will not only be satisfied with eating the vanguard led by General Chagan and General Ozhitandu, but will destroy the shelters along the way, and then our efforts will be in vain." ”

"How many troops does the general need?" asked Empress Narentoya rhetorically.

"Your Majesty only needs to give me ten elite legions, and I will send them back to the mountains!" replied Izhbis.

"Stupid!" Empress Narentoya scolded, "knowing that the other party has the ability to destroy the shelter, how can he still be so careless, now the top priority is to find out their true strength, curb their advance, counterattack, and wait until we have their detailed information, and then it is not too late, this world is far bigger than we imagined, and there are more dangers than we imagined, we can't get carried away because of a momentary victory." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty taught you. Iribis bowed his head and commanded, "I'm going to send more bone eagles out just to intercept their affairs." ”

"I'll send you five elite legions, and you can mobilize ten ordinary legions from all over the country. "Empress Narentoya has not fully fulfilled Iribis's request, the elite Grey Bone Legion is her foundation, and she can't be completely tempted," Your main task is to temporarily contain the opponent's advance, not to attack lightly, and to investigate the situation of General Gan and General Ozhitandu as much as possible. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Iribis flickered his eyes as he bowed and took the order.

Just as when he came, Prince Izbis walked away with a ball of flames, not even looking at Prince Zana, let alone greeting him.

Although they are now ministers of the same palace, it does not mean that the hatred they had in their lives will be erased, and some things are engraved in their souls.

"Brother Wang, you can go down too, the captivity plan will be handed over to you to carry out with full authority, be fast. After such a fuss, Empress Narentoya was obviously in no mood to talk about other government affairs.

"Yes. Prince Zhana bowed back, and at an angle that the other party couldn't see, his soul fire jumped slightly, obviously calculating the impact of this sudden incident on the Undead Empire.

After everyone retreated, the Gray Bone Palace returned to a cold state again, but the aura that came out of it was not half-dead, on the contrary, it was a feeling of high vitality.

This feeling in this environment makes people feel a different kind of weirdness.

The advance of the Eternal Night Commander, although it brought a little shock to Empress Narentoya, was far less than imagined.

After all, the Undead Empire has passed its weakest period, and it is not necessary to tear down a few gray bone towers and destroy two undead legions to shake them.

Compared to other high-level immortals who were ignorant, Empress Narentoya knew better what kind of difficult path she was embarking on, and what difficulties and dangers awaited them in the future, and now she was just one of the roadblocks.

The Empire of the Undead's response was not timely.

But the Eternal Night Leaders marched faster until their army of the undead was mobilized.

The four legions led by the Eternal Night Army cooperated with each other and frantically advanced two hundred kilometers southward, demolishing a total of eighteen of their gray bone towers.

Then an orderly retreat began.

Not only because the Undead Empire reacted, and the army began to press upward.

Also because of their fighting style, they rely too heavily on logistics supplies, and the faster they advance and the longer the battle line is stretched, the heavier the pressure on logistics supplies.

Sean: They know very well that they are taking advantage of the undead Empire's contempt for the Eternal Night Leader.

Once the Undead Empire pays attention to them, the other party has an absolute advantage in terms of military strength.

Relying on the northern defense line to play defensive counterattacks is their best choice.

Not to mention, in this blitzkrieg, which lasted less than a week.

The Lords of the Eternal Night have reaped what they wanted.

Even if Sean used the power of law to arm the four legions to the teeth, he still had a balance of more than 20,000 points of law power.

That's enough for him to do many, many things.

For example, all the military flags of other main battle legions have been upgraded to the heroic soul military flag, although it is the lowest grade, but for the soldiers, at least there is a safety guarantee.

For example, to carry out further research on the soul fire, especially about using it as the core to build an engine, once this matter is realized, the impact on the future of the Eternal Night Army Leader will not be less than the development of the consciousness space.

Even the research on the dimensional space magic array, in some methods and measures, can be bolder.

Sean has known for a long time that the power of law is a special stabilizer, especially in the research of tearing down plane barriers, which has a strong stabilizing effect.

Previously, due to the question of the source of the power of the law, this research could not be carried out at all.

Naturally, there are no such concerns now.
