Chapter 822: Chain Effects
It was the howl of despair before the Seed of Shadows died.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the golden light on the Heroic Soul Banner seems to have become a little brighter.
A vague figure appeared on the Heroic Soul Army Flag, it was the self-refereed Odin orc just now, with a relaxed and relieved smile on his face, and waved his hand to everyone silently, which was regarded as a farewell, and silently submerged into the Heroic Soul Army Flag.
This situation made the surrounding Odin orcs stunned and thoughtful.
They seemed to have seen this kind of situation, and the Broken Blood Riders who had rushed out of the Broken Blood Fortress to rescue them seemed to be in this state as well.
If they continue to exist in that state, death does not seem so unacceptable, and it is the Odin orcs who are in a state where life is worse than death.
With the first case, imitators soon followed.
An Orc of Odin, who was also in heavy flames, had already been tortured and had the heart to die.
It's just that he is not as lucky as the previous one, he has no weapons on his body, and for a while, there is no way to die.
Directly in front of the Odin orc, he pulled out the cleaver in his eye, and plunged it into his own eye, following in the footsteps of the former, looking in a divine purifying light.
The surrounding flaming Orcs who couldn't find their own weapons begged to kill me to give me a weapon.
When!
A short knife was thrown into the field.
It's like a stone falling into the river, causing ripples.
All of a sudden, the sound of the long voice was endless.
On the ground around the Heroic Soul Banner, there are more or less more melee weapons.
The human heart is made of flesh.
Watching them suffer like this, I can't help but have a thought, or I might as well die.
But if they are to kill them, this kind of decision seems to be more difficult to make, and the closer the person, the harder it is to make.
It's easier to hand them a weapon and let them decide for themselves.
If they are in the same environment, they also like their own people, and they can help them in this way.
The rest of the matter is needless to say.
Most of the Odin orcs who fell into a burning state will embark on the path of self-understanding.
Because of this internal combustion, it is not only their bodies that burn, but also their souls.
Compared to the tearing pain of the soul, this physical pain is nothing.
There are also some symptoms that are even more ruthless, even with the help of the Heroic Soul Battle Banner, it is difficult to regain self-consciousness, and they are dancing their teeth and claws, trying to attack the surrounding Odin orcs.
For such people, there is no way to be merciful, and killing them directly has become the best choice, this does not need to be commanded by the people above at all, and the people below will do it directly.
For their own people, those Odin orcs are still soft-hearted, but not so merciful to those animals parasitized by the Seed of Shadows.
As long as you show symptoms, killing them cleanly is the safest option.
It's just that the chance of the Heroic Soul Army Banner absorbing their souls will be greatly reduced, after all, this matter is closely related to their souls.
War horses have the highest chance, followed by ordinary cattle and horses, and the lowest is sheep, which is basically one in a hundred.
All of a sudden, around the twenty heroic soul flags, it became a large slaughterhouse, and the corpses of Odin's orcs, cattle, horses and sheep were pulled out one by one.
Seeing the end, all the people were numb, except for the time when they were still a little nervous when they passed the Heroic Soul Banner test for the first time, the life and death of other people had no way to cause their feelings to fluctuate.
Ulaanbari's face darkened.
The cured Odin orcs are not even a third.
Let him have a feeling that he has been cheated by Sean.
But there is nothing to be done.
After all, Sean's treatment methods are open and transparent.
From beginning to end, people didn't make a move on those Odin orcs at all, so naturally it was impossible to do anything.
Those Heroic Soul Banners only react to those who are infected, and for those who are not infected, there is only harm and no good.
When the inspection, which took three days and three nights, was completed, Sean could go back with a flag that was already filled with Heroic Souls on the spot.
Under normal circumstances, a full-dotted Heroic Soul Army Flag can hold 10,000 Heroic Souls.
The specific upper limit of accommodation is closely related to the power of the law possessed by the Heroic Soul Banner.
The more power of the law you have, the stronger the effect of the Heroic Soul Banner, and the more Heroic Souls it contains, the more Heroic Souls it contains.
Sean is ready to carry it back, and the two Heroic Soul Banners of the Broken Blood Castle are the second of the twenty, with seven hundred and fifty points of law power, and the upper limit of the capacity is fifteen thousand.
However, these fifteen thousand heroic souls are not entirely Odin orcs, they only account for one-third, and the rest are the souls of war horses, cattle and sheep.
Even so, Ulaanbari's face was as black as an iron pot.
Not only because the Odin orcs parasitized by the Shadow Seed far exceeded their imagination, but also because they were frightened by the terrifying strength of the Shadow Master.
That shadow tentacle only raged for less than two minutes, and it was still most of the energy involved by Sean and them at the beginning, and they didn't attack them at all.
If that shadow tentacle is used as soon as it is used, if they take the direction of the main attack, their losses will be even heavier.
The commander of this soon-to-be-formed orc heroic soul army also has a suitable candidate.
He was a captain named Sidney, who was once a warrior who was trusted by Ulaanbari.
He was not parasitized by the Seed of Shadows, but in the previous war, he was blown up by the powder keg of the Broken Blood Keep, lost an arm and a leg, and was a cripple who could not ride a horse or shoot a bow.
After receiving the promise of Ulaanbari, the captain voluntarily gave up his life, entered the Heroic Soul Battle Banner, and transformed into a Heroic Soul.
This is a matter of their Theodin Empire, and Sean did not interfere, just watched from the sidelines.
If Ulan Bazhi has the ability to persuade all the disabled members of the Western Odin Empire to cut themselves and transform them into heroic soldiers.
Sean will not refuse, but will be happy to see it, the enemy they face is too strong, there is too little quality soldiers, and the more heroic soul soldiers he is given now, the more he can do.
This kind of persuasion loyal to his own soldiers to commit suicide, even if it is a useless waste, Sean can watch Ulaanba Day do it coldly, but he will definitely not do it to his own people, nor do he advocate his own people.
Truth and goodness or hypocrisy.
This is Sean's minimum bottom line, and he is not prepared to violate it.
......
There is also good news for Ulaanbari.
The remnants led by him not only did not further lose their strength because of this test, but rebounded significantly.
Because his think tank, Chief Scambarge, came up with a trick for him to turn waste into treasure, and sent people to the outside to hype up the fact that Sean had brought a cure.
Attract the tribes that gave birth to two hearts, and the orcs who have broken up Odin to return to the camp and reunite under his banner.
The effect is surprisingly good.
Because the Seed of Shadows has entered a period of high outbreak one after another, the tribal chieftains who are ready to rebel and stand on their own feet have been overwhelmed.
Even if they are bent on dying, the clansmen below will force them to bow their heads again and return to Ulaanbari's side to find an antidote.
As long as they are willing to return, Ulaanbari has countless means to rectify them and bring them back under his banner.
Pieced together, the main army of the Western Odin Empire, Ulan Bari stubbornly glued it to half of its original strength.
Although the strength has plunged significantly, I am afraid that even the previous one-third of the strength may not be able to be exerted, but the total strength is here, it does not look so miserable, and with the return of the team led by Hari Chagai, he can once again stabilize the situation of the Western Odin Empire and bring it under his control.
This situation did not surprise Sean, this is the price he must pay for the threat of helping the Ulaanbari army to drive out the Seed of Shadows.
Even if Ulaanba knew that Sean had cheated him, there was no way to settle the score.
"I suggest that the army of Chief Hari Chagai should also be checked. Before leaving, Sean dropped a new offer.
"Why?" After three days of seeing it with his own eyes, Hari Chagai no longer questioned the truth of the matter, but his prejudices and doubts about Sean were still there, and any opinions he put forward were instinctive rhetorical questions, "My warrior has not fought that monster, and it is impossible for him to be parasitized." ”
"Who said that the Shadow Seed can only stay in the body of one host?" Sean replied faintly, "These cunning guys, in order to avoid our screening, are likely to transfer to different soldiers, maybe a monster has already burrowed into your soldiers, even our inspection this time, it is not 100%, maybe there are loopholes, transferred to those soldiers who have already been inspected, to avoid the inspection of the fish that slip through the net." ”
"Those monsters are able to move between different soldiers?"
"Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"Are you lying to the crowd again?"
As soon as these words came out, it was not just a matter of Hari Chagai jumping up, even Ulan Bari and Skambari were clawed.
If it were the truth that Sean had just said, their previous three days and three nights would have been greatly reduced.
"Can I say I forgot?" Sean didn't give Ulan Bari a chance to be angry at all, carrying the heroic soul military flag full of souls, soaring into the air, and dropping a sentence, believe it or not, anyway, the treatment method, you have mastered it, so he broke through the air cleanly.
"This bastard is deliberate, absolutely deliberate, how can this kind of thing be forgotten? How can it be forgotten? What do we mean by believe it or not? He is deliberately delaying our time and making us waste more energy on the same thing. Ulaanbari roared in exasperation, "I knew this guy was a bastard, a complete bastard." ”
"Your Majesty, what are we going to do now? Do you believe that bastard? We have already delayed too much time here, in less than a week, we will be completely out of food, and the longer we delay here, the more time the Byronians will have to gather forces, we have missed the best time to attack, according to the accurate information ahead, the thirty new legions formed by the Lancelot royal family and the Holy See in the west have all given up their combat missions to the Twin Peninsula, and have collectively gone north, Princess Sophilia, the former regent who has been married to the commander of the Eternal Night, has also erected a banner in the south, recruited troops, and the remaining broken blood horsemen have sworn allegiance to him......" Harichagai had a gloom on his face that could not be concealed.
Before being temporarily recalled, he was leading a furious advance on the Western Front.
Now I can only watch being trapped here and unable to move, saying that there is no resentment in my heart is false.
However, in the eyes of Ulan Bari, royal power was obviously more important, and he needed the Tiger Claw tribe to return and help him maintain the stability of the royal power, even at the expense of giving up some of the good things they had to do to the south.
"I know, I know it, but the moment we accepted Narentoya's offer, the situation was out of control, we just didn't know it. Ulan Bari sighed heavily and said, "This kind of thing must be taken seriously regardless of whether it is true or not, our current situation cannot withstand another civil strife, but it is also urgent to go south in an all-round way, and this matter is carried out on the way to the south, I believe that even if there are fish that slip through the net, the impact is not as big as before, and there is no need to make a big show like before." ”
"Your Majesty's view is stable, Lord Sean and we are also friends and enemies, in the face of the evil gods, we are firm comrades-in-arms, but aside from the overall situation, there are irreconcilable contradictions, and it is too normal for him to calculate us, but it is our own negligence, but on the other hand, if there is no help from the other party, we don't even have a chance to re-stabilize the situation, overall, this time we are still more profitable. "Scambarge, as always, is looking at things from the big picture.
"I understand this truth, but I was disgusted by his little means. Ulan Bari tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and said, "Regarding the proposal to join forces in one place and attack one point with all his might, what did Chief Hai Ridong say?"
"Refused. Skambari replied, "He thinks that it is too time-consuming to move troops back and forth, and it is better to attack separately according to the current situation, and at the same time advise Your Majesty, let us not wait for the fog that shrouded the Broken Blood Fort to disappear, and directly break it into pieces, infiltrate through the various passes and fortresses, and then assemble again when we reach the south." ”
"Expectedly, this will be able to get rid of my constraints directly. Ulan Bari sneered and said, "Since they don't listen to our advice and insist on kicking the iron plate of the Eternal Night Army, then let them collide and help us weigh the strength of the other party, but the matter of going south needs to be considered in the long run." ”
"What does Your Majesty mean?" Hazhagai and Ori Le and Ke were suddenly startled, and hurriedly asked.
"As you have just said, we have missed the best opportunity to go south, even if we cross the line of defense against the broken pulse, we will face the Byron alliance that has awakened and united, and it will be difficult to expand the results of the war, and it is even likely to be dragged into the quagmire of war, the bigger and weaker. ”
