Chapter 757: A Nail Pierced in the Enemy's Chest
This task belonged to the Guards Regiment, and several other marshals could not fight for it.
Who let them not have the agility of the Guards!
Given that Marshal Dicron is likely to fight deep into the canopy of the dead this time, Sean sent three soul clones to act with them - the Shadow Soul Eater Leopard, the Energy Clone, and the Thunder Golden Eagle.
In this extreme environment, the Soul War Beast is definitely the best scout, although in the perspective of the undead soul, the stealth effect of skills such as the Shadow Soul Eater Leopard escaping into the shadows is not good.
But the Shadow Soul Eater Leopard itself also belongs to the soul perspective, and Sean's soul consciousness is strong enough, and the perspective distance is definitely above those undead, and there are still many advantages.
The most important thing is that all soul war beasts have the function of soul positioning, and it is not easy to get lost in the undead canopy.
When the Shadow Soul Eater Leopard detects a useful report, it can directly report through the soul war beast that follows the legion to determine the direction and approximate distance of the intelligence, so as to facilitate the legion's layout and action.
And vice versa, there will be no situation where the legion cannot be found after the outpost is thrown out.
"The Eye of the Sky is the Lord's Eye of the Air. β
"It's really the Eye of the Sky, I didn't expect the Lord Lord to transfer his Eye of the Sky back to support us, what else is there to fear from a mere undead canopy?"
"Brothers of the Guards Legion, cheer me up, this is the first time the lord has gone out with us, if anyone coaxes me in front of the lord and makes a fool of me, don't blame me for being unkind. β
"Shadow Leopard and Shadow Guard, could it be that Lord Lord has transferred three eyes back at once, and it seems that Lord Lord Lord has taken our mission this time very seriously?"
"That's natural, after all, the enemy we are facing this time can't be measured by common sense, Lord Lord's soul war beast does have an advantage that ordinary soldiers can't match in terms of reconnaissance. β
"With the three eyes of the lord accompanying him, plus the holy light chariot newly developed by the lord, that undead canopy, don't imagine that we are playing like last time, this time we must kill that bird canopy, capture that Naren Tuoya alive, and send her to the sun to expose her, so that she knows the fate of provoking our eternal night. β
"It's good to have faith, but if you have too much faith, you're arrogant!
"I don't have confidence in myself, but I have faith in my lord!"
"Lord Lord, it's Lord Lord!"
"I didn't expect to be lucky enough to meet the lord, I seem to see a dazzling light on the lord's body, is it my delusion?"
"It's not your delusion, it's real, that's why the lord appears in front of the lords less and less, because it's too dazzling, haha......"
"I think that's good! That's what matches the identity of the lord!
"Silence, silence, Lord is about to speak!"
Sean led three soul beast clones to appear, causing an unknown commotion in the Guards Legion, which was a big boost to their morale.
In the military operations of the Eternal Night Army Leader over the years, the figure of the soul war beast can be seen, and all the soldiers are accustomed to it.
There was even an internal consensus that according to whether their lord had sent soul war beasts, and what kind of soul war beasts, they could judge the importance of the high-level to this military mission, as well as the division of the nature of the task itself, etc., and even gave them exclusive nicknames.
Among them, the most missions are the Thunder Golden Eagle, the Shadow Soul Eater Leopard, and the energy clone, and the others, unless there are special circumstances, or the clone is really lacking in skills, they are rarely mobilized.
The military operation that allowed Sean to dispatch a soul war beast was quite remarkable.
There are many of them, and so far, there is only the previous naval battle with the East China Sea Country.
In front of him, the situation of one legion with three soul war beasts was unprecedented.
It is a testament to the importance he attaches to this mission, as well as to the Guards Corps.
The soldiers of the Guards Regiment now fully felt this, and their morale was naturally greatly stimulated, and they raised their heads one by one, exuding a glory and pride that could not be concealed.
Due to the fact that there are too many tasks performed by the soul war beasts, there are fewer and fewer opportunities for Sean's deity to appear in the eyes of the people.
It's not just for safety reasons, it's about his current state, which is somewhat shocking.
It is no exaggeration to say that Sean now has his own aura, and this circle of blazing magic brilliance flashes around him.
This situation is naturally closely related to the cell rune culture developed by Sean himself, and over the years, he has never stopped cultivating in this aspect for a moment.
Especially after having a sufficient source of magic energy, as long as the body can withstand it, Sean will absorb it in the largest amount and at the maximum speed to promote the progress of the cell rune culture.
It's hard to get started.
This sentence is very appropriate for Sean's work on cell rune culture.
At the beginning, Sean had to use the Mage Tower, spending a lot of time and energy, constantly impacting and refining those cells, so that some of them could appear runes.
However, with the increase of rune culture cells in the body and the emergence of a large number of rune culture cell groups, even if Sean does not take the initiative to advance, those rune culture cell groups will take the initiative to absorb the surrounding magic energy and promote the progress of the surrounding cell rune culture, but this process is extremely slow compared to artificial cultivation, but it is real.
After the metabolism of the rune culture cells that Sean was worried about at the beginning, they turned into ordinary cells again, and the rune culture he had promoted before did useless work, and this situation did not appear at all.
After the Fu culture cells are grouped, the cells metabolized in the middle are not Fu culture cells, but they are also quasi-Fu culture cells, and the energy in them is in a nearly saturated state, and a little energy stimulation will automatically Fu culture.
This also completely explains why legendary creatures like dragons lie down and sleep every day, but their strength keeps getting stronger with the years.
Now Sean can do the same, a legendary creature in humanoid skin.
An unavoidable side effect of the cell rune culture is that it emits magical fluorescence.
In the early stage of this symptom, it is not particularly obvious, and it even has the miraculous effect of beauty, after all, to a certain extent, this is its own highlight.
However, as the number of rune culture cells increases, trillions of cells converge, even fluorescence will become dazzling light, and it will be difficult to cover even clothing.
If the current situation continues, Sean is afraid that he will be more than just a high-power humanoid light bulb, and will completely turn into a ball of light.
Sean has already begun to work on this matter, and has a certain eyebrow.
Whoever started the trouble should end it.
If something happens in the cell culture, think of a way from the cell culture.
Sean originally wanted to solve it from the root and directly let the rune culture cells no longer emit this magic fluorescence, but this was obviously impossible, at least not with his current ability.
I can only settle for the second, make a fuss on the skin layer, give priority to the cells here, and use them to form a special spell array, so as to achieve the purpose of shielding the fluorescence of the spell.
Even for Sean, this is a big project, and in a short period of time, he can only go in and out with a halo.
"This time out of the fortress, your mission is no longer simply to harass the enemy, I want you to turn into a sharp blade, and fiercely nail into the other party's heart, make them suffer and make them bleed.
When the time comes, you will be alone, with no friendly troops, no supplies, and even a retreat back to the fortress will be blocked.
The enemy will regard you as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh, and will mobilize superior forces to encircle and intercept you.
At that time, the only thing that will walk with you is our faith in protecting the military leader, and our confidence in defeating the enemy.
Can I trust you to entrust you with this difficult task?"
Sean's speech to the Guards was brief, with no demagoguery or rhetoric, only a statement of facts.
The Undead Empire is advancing very fast, and it has already entered the realm of the Koggle Grassland three days ago.
Now send the Guards Legion to attack from a long distance, and the connection between the two sides is likely to be cut off by the other party.
But in order to maintain enough initiative in this war, the Guards Corps, a mobile corps, must be released.
Put it in the back of the Empire of the Dead.
As long as they existed for a day, there was no way for the Undead Empire to let go of their hands and feet and attack the northern defense line with all their might.
This trick was not unique to the Eternal Night Commander, but was learned from the severed blood cavalry of Archduke Cedric.
They took the initiative to get out of the plug, went around behind the enemy who was attacking the Broken Pulse Defense Line, and fought the tactics of flanking on both sides, which they used very skillfully.
So much so that before seeing the Broken Blood Horse, the Odin orcs attacking the Broken Pulse defense line had to spare some strength, which in itself was a weakening.
But this tactic puts a lot of pressure on the legion that is the nail itself.
"Victory!"
"Victory!"
"Victory!"
Sean was responded to by a fiery shout.
For these soldiers, who take pride in guarding them, entrusting them with this difficult task is their greatest honor.
After the brief pledge meeting, the Guards Regiment left the northern fortress once again, carrying the Holy Light Chariot that had just been baked for a short time, and under the personal leadership of Marshal Dicron, they went deep into the Kogel steppe, this time they were ready to go behind enemy lines and do long-term guerrilla warfare.
Compared to the first time, the Guards not only have better equipment, but also have more experience.
Adopt a battle plan that goes out by day and night, whether or not you go deep into the canopy of the dead.
This was done in order to use the laws of the plane as much as possible to counter the undead.
The canopy of the dead only shades the sunlight, but it does not mean that the sunlight has disappeared.
In the case of the scorching sun, the power of the undead canopy is still weakened to a certain extent, and the strength of the undead soldiers will naturally be affected, and the activity will be much lower.
Rest during the day, the likelihood of being attacked is lower.
When the Guards Corps set out, Sean's Thunder Eagle took the lead and launched a comprehensive reconnaissance of the Undead Empire.
The Undead Sky Curtain is said to be a Sky Canopy, but it is far from the extent that the entire sky is obscured, at best, it covers about twenty meters of the ground.
The area covered is not as wide as expected, at least not far from the horror of being shrouded in the canopy of the undead everywhere it passes.
The Barsin steppe, which is now regarded as a lair by the Empire of the Undead, cannot do it to this extent.
If you look down from the sky, the canopy of the dead is like a speck of mold, scattered on the Barsing steppe in the east and west, not to mention one hundredth, not even one thousandth.
In Sean's view, these canopies of the undead are more like shelters built by the undead to escape the daytime sun.
The reason why the Undead Empire is very cautious in the face of the Eternal Night Warlord is because they are not using this kind of shelter to advance towards the Eternal Night Warlord.
Instead, he directly built an undead canopy passage dedicated to the undead souls, a passage that was twenty kilometers wide.
This is another reason why Sean dares to send the Guards to take the initiative to attack, as long as they grasp the direction, it is not difficult for them to kill through the twenty-kilometer passage and escape to an environment that is unfavorable to the undead souls.
If the Empire of the Undead really brought the Kogel Grassland into the shroud of the Undead Sky.
Sean will definitely not have other ideas, let alone take the initiative to release the Guards Legion to death, honestly manage his own northern defense line, and be able to block the undead empire outside, it will be Amitabha.
It's not that the Undead Empire doesn't want to do it, it's that it can't.
Although they have not yet fully understood how the Undead Canopy works, it is not clear which kind of energy they are using.
But one thing is certain, in the current environment, this technique of changing the natural environment is definitely super energy-consuming.
In other words, there is no better time for an unconventional enemy like the Undead Empire to stir up trouble.
Then again, when they wait for the best time, they won't be facing the current Eternal Night Commander.
The direction of the Golden Eagle's reconnaissance is mainly in the overall situation.
The situation inside the canopy of the undead requires the shadow leopard to come out.
After really going deep into the canopy of the undead, Sean truly realized what it means to be called the paradise of the undead and the forbidden land of mankind.
It's not just about shading out the sun, it's about the negative energy that lingers in the air, invading every living creature that penetrates into it all the time.
This kind of negative energy is naturally a great tonic for the undead, and if it is nourished for a long time, the soul fire will become stronger and stronger, and the strength will naturally become stronger.
For human beings, this is a veritable source of disaster, and after being in this environment for a long time, it will not take long for a strong man to become frail and sickly, and after death, he will properly turn into a wandering corpse.
Sean felt a familiar smell in itβthe smell of an undead virus.
The Empire of the Undead frantically integrated the undead virus into the Undead Canopy.
Wrong!
Not exactly the taste of an undead virus.
There's also a taste of energy that makes Sean feel particularly familiar.
