Chapter 463: The Great Wall

"The third, Sandro. ”

Sandro is one of the necromancers among the finalists.

When they saw Sandro wearing a pitch-black necromancer robe slowly walking out, everyone unconsciously moved out of the way. Strangely, Sandro's steps are very slow, and he looks extremely stiff, giving the impression of a skeleton without a stellar mind!

As Sandro passed by Storm Warlord Resarit, Resarit slammed a "puff-" for a moment, making no secret of his hostility and disdain for Sandro - Resarit and Sandro didn't know each other before, but as a Storm Dwarf who revered his ancestors, he had enough reason to be hostile to this pervert who played with the corpses of the dead!

Seeing this scene, the surrounding finalists all had playful looks in their eyes - they are also competitors, and they are very much looking forward to the two of them being able to do it, and it is best to see life and death on the spot!

To their disappointment, however, Sandro walked slowly to the white attic at that strange pace, as if to see Resarit's provocation.

Suddenly, everyone noticed that a black gauze mist suddenly appeared around Sandro's body, hazy and seemingly powerless, but to everyone's shock, the marble floor that Sandro walked all the way had become charred black, and obvious signs of corrosion could be seen!

Most dwarves hated magic of all kinds, and Resarit retreated at the sight of the black smoke around Sandro, and when he noticed the charred and corroded marble floor, his face became even more ugly, and his eyes were full of solemnity.

Margaret also noticed this scene, so when Sandro passed by her, she looked at Sandro with dissatisfaction and warning, and said, "Don't use your magic in the future, otherwise how you will break the ground, I will let you use magic to fix the ground!"

Sandro paused, nodded silently, and then walked into the attic.

After Sandro walked into the attic, among the finalists, a conqueror who looked like a veteran adventurer half-crouched down and carefully stared at the marble floor destroyed by Sandro, and after a while, he said with a solemn expression: "This is bone poison!"

Aside from stone, wine, and blacksmithing, anything else is hardly of interest to the Storm Dwarves, and Ressarit is no different. And he has just formed a bond with Sandro again, and although he is not afraid, it is always good to be prepared. So Ressarit immediately nervously asked, "What is bone poison?"

"Bone poison, also known as the poison of white bones, is mostly found in poisonous bone skeletons. The veteran adventurer was obviously well-informed, and he said eloquently, "The Poison Bone Skeleton is the most powerful, and quite difficult and dangerous of the skeleton warriors! It is said that in order to make a Poison Bone Skeleton, it is necessary to feed the living people with a highly poisonous agent for a long time, let the toxin penetrate deep into their bones, and raise them into Poison Humans, and after the poison people die, their corpses are transformed into skeleton warriors through necromancy, that is, Poison Bone Skeletons!"

"Poisonous bone skeletons contain a huge amount of toxin in every inch of their body, and their bones are much harder and sharper than those of the same level skeleton warriors, once their claws tear the flesh apart, the toxins in their bodies will seep in, and then, the injured will become like these granite!" As he spoke, the veteran adventurer couldn't help but glance at Resarit with pity, obviously feeling sorry for him for offending such a dangerous necromancer, but if you look closely, you can see that the schadenfreude in the eyes of the veteran adventurer flashes away.

As for Resarit himself, his face was extremely gloomy at this time, and it was obvious that he also found Sandro quite difficult to deal with, especially the strange bone poison on the other party's body, which made him very jealous, but Resarit did not regret it - a true storm dwarf, never afraid of battle!

"But according to you, bone poison should have appeared on the poisonous bone skeleton, but why is it now on the necromancer's body?"

This warrior is tall, his height is estimated to be more than 1.9 meters, his bare skin is tattooed with some primitive totems that ordinary people can't understand, hideous and weird, full of strong savage flavor; but what is even more strange is that this warrior wears a pale bone helmet on his head, and his face above the nose is covered by the bone helmet, and the top of the bone helmet has a pair of pitch-black curved horns; behind the warrior, there is also a huge pair of white bone javelins, and the white bone javelins spread out like open paper fans, so that this warrior adds a domineering and flamboyance!

All the finalists present knew that in the entire Dawn Valley, and even the entire Blanca continent, there were only Misty Mountain warriors with this kind of costume!

The Barbarian Highlands are located on the southwestern side of the Valley of the Dawn, bordering the Holy Laurent Empire, and the Storm Mountains. For the vast majority of humanity in the Valley of the Dawn, the Barbarian Heights is a closed and mysterious place where savagery runs rampant, rife with gore and all sorts of ancient evils!

Most people don't have a good impression of the barbarians, and they don't have much bad feelings, after all, whether it is the original Fast Empire or the current countries of the Valley of the Dawn, on the whole, they have always been at peace with the barbarians in the barbarian highlands. But there is only one group of people, and that is the barbarians who dwell in the Misty Mountains!

The Misty Mountains are thousands of miles long, bordering the Barbarian Highlands and the Holy Laurent Empire, and compared to the relatively mild barbarians in the rest of the Barbarian Heights, the barbarians in the Misty Mountains are the real predators! They are like a group of robbers and bandits, once they encounter a disaster or the like, the barbarians in the Misty Mountains will descend the mountains in droves to plunder the surrounding villages of the Roland Empire, and even attack the cities! And the combat effectiveness of the barbarians in the Misty Mountains is very strong, even in the entire barbarian highlands, they are outstanding, so whenever the barbarians in the Misty Mountains descend the mountain on a large scale, the Roland Empire will suffer extremely serious losses!

It can be said that almost every Roland Emperor must have sent a large army to clear the Misty Mountain! And the nobles in the southwest region of the Roland Empire also regarded the Misty Mountain as a treasure place for brushing up military exploits and resumes! For example, the current Roland Emperor St. PePaul, his name of 'Thousand Slaughters' was given to him when he was young in a large-scale battle between the Roland Empire and the barbarians of the Misty Mountains, and he killed more than 1,000 people at one time!

However, the Misty Mountains are too vast, the terrain and environment are also extremely complex, and although the warriors of the Misty Mountains are aggressive, they are also extremely cunning, once they encounter the large-scale army of the Roland Empire, if they are confirmed to be invincible, they will be scattered to zero, and they will burrow into the Misty Mountains! In the face of the vast Misty Mountains, even the largest number of Roland troops can hardly find half of the barbarians!

Therefore, even though the Roland Empire cleared the Misty Mountains again and again, it never really disintegrated the foundation of the barbarians in the Misty Mountains.

Since the strong attack could not solve the problem, the Roland Empire chose to defend - in the sacred calendar of 3500~3800 years, the Roland royal family produced a very legendary emperor, Richard 136, the Great Wall Emperor Augustus!

Augustus reigned for nearly 300 years, and he did not have much to praise in politics and diplomacy, but in military affairs, he wrote a strong stroke - it took a full hundred years, spent countless resources and gold coins, and killed thousands of slaves, and the Roland Empire built a wall of thousands of miles between the Misty Mountains and the border of the empire, known as the Great Wall of Augustus, also known as the Great Wall of Ten Thousand Miles!

According to the official data of the Roland Empire and some folk enthusiasts, the winding Great Wall between the Roland Empire and the Misty Mountains is 17,300 miles long, which is a great wall in the true sense of the word!

The Great Wall is built in accordance with the top military defense standards, with an average height of 78 meters, and some sections are even as high as 150 meters! And the Great Wall is not just a single city wall, but a complete defense engineering system composed of various fortifications such as city walls, castles, and magic yantai. Among them, the width of the city wall is enough for no horses to gallop in parallel; the existence of the Devil's Smoke allows the guards on the Great Wall to immediately use the Devil's Smoke to warn them once they find that the barbarians of the Misty Mountain are attacking! And on the Great Wall, the Roland Empire has a Great Wall Knights with a strength of up to 300,000 troops stationed all year round!

It can be said that because of the appearance of the Great Wall, the harm and potential threat that the barbarians of the Misty Mountains can cause to the southwest region of the Roland Empire have been greatly reduced, and the completion of the Great Wall is definitely a great military achievement in the history of the Roland Empire!

In the end, however, Augustus did not earn the corresponding accolades and historical status, because his brilliance was destined to be buried by another, even more dazzling presence of the same period, Nicholas the Covenant!

In the year 3689 of the Holy Calendar, Augustus overcame the opposition of countless ministers and nobles, and began to build the Great Wall with great perseverance and great heart, but it was also in this year that Nicholas, who was only an ordinary pope of the Inquisition, made a shocking prophecy - "In the year 3789 of the Holy Calendar, the day of thunder, at noon, the city of knights will build a throne of thunder!

One hundred years later, in January 3789 of the Sacred Calendar, the construction of the Great Wall was completed, and Augustus completed the unprecedented military achievements, he won supreme glory and praise, and also opened a new chapter in the Roland Empire's fight against the Misty Mountains!

But six months later, on July 7, 3789 A.D., a 4,000-meter-high peak was erected in the city of Roland, which was the "Throne of Thunder" prophesied by Nicholas a hundred years ago!

On this day, Nicholas's prophecy a hundred years ago shocked the entire continent of Blanca!

On this day, Nicholas entered the Inquisition in the name of the Covenant One, and the new covenant book, New Age Revelation, replaced the Old Testament book Thunder Apocalypse, and the Inquisition began a new era and ushered in the glorious age of the crowning of thunder!

And Augustus, who was originally qualified to be a godless being, was finally buried by the brilliance of Nicholas, and died of depression more than ten years later......
