Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Lady Who Sighs (113)
The demagogic words of the Tiger King aroused countless fantasies in me, and I wondered what had happened to me at that time, what had changed in me, and what kind of catastrophe I had inflicted on the apostles at that time. And that's what Tiger King couldn't tell me in words.
I even suspected that what the Tiger King had told me was nothing more than hearsay, or even completely false news. What's more, it has been many years since that war, and most of the soldiers of the Denoma Empire who experienced that war have already died or died, and I don't know where to look for the rest. So in this way, it becomes what the Tiger King says.
However, judging from some of the circumstances at the time, at least a large part of what the Tiger King said was true. That is, during that time, I did have amnesia, and by the time I woke up, there were some skeletons around me that I had never even seen myself.
These skeletons, though I haven't seen them, can easily be linked to them. There's only one reason for that, and that's that these skeletons were summoned by me. However, the number of these skeletons was not as large as the one I had summoned, and they were originally equal to those apostles, but when I came to my senses, the number of these strange-looking skeletons was drastically reduced, and there were only a few hundred of them as far as I could see.
And, I have to admit, these skeletons are much better than the skeletons I summoned in the first place. If the skeletons I summoned before were just some ordinary goods that I summoned for emergencies, then these skeletons now can be described as elite.
Also, there was something on the battlefield that I was a little surprised by. That is, in the entire canyon, the corpses of many fallen apostolic soldiers suddenly appeared. I looked blankly at the Tiger King next to me, only to find that the Tiger King was looking at me with a shocked expression. "What's the matter, Tiger King, what the hell is going on?"
"What?, ma'am, you don't even know what just happened?" Unexpectedly, the Tiger King responded to me in a more surprised tone: "Ma'am, you don't have any impression of what just happened, do you?"
I shook my head blankly, not even the slightest bit of an impression of what had happened not so long ago. Fortunately, when I was in a daze, the apostles didn't know why they were basically far away from me, and even the human soldiers looked at me with horror on their faces. "Why, did I injure those soldiers by mistake?"
"They?" the Tiger King explained, realizing that I was referring to the soldiers of the Denomah Empire, with a smile, "Of course not, ma'am. It's really strange, it's clear that you caused all this, but you don't have the slightest impression. Of course those soldiers of the Denomah Empire are fine, and you see, those skeleton soldiers you summoned before, have there been some changes now?"
I took a closer look, and it was true that although the number of skeletons was much smaller than the ones I had summoned at the beginning, the physical fitness of each skeleton had improved considerably. For example, before this, a few skeleton soldiers couldn't even beat a human, because they only had bones left, and the weapons in their hands were basically rusty, not to mention cutting people, and even if they were held in their hands, they might be blown off by the wind. Basically, these skeleton soldiers are also playing the role of cannon fodder. But now, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, who could have imagined that a skeleton soldier could easily chop off the head of an apostle soldier armed to the teeth with the shiny sword in his hand?
I don't believe it, and neither do the human soldiers of the Denoma Empire, nor do the Tiger Kings, nor do the Apostles. And the one who didn't believe that such a thing really happened was probably the apostolic soldier whose head was cut off by a skeleton. In this apostolic army, he can be regarded as a low-level apostle officer, and the armor on his body is made from the high-quality materials of the human world and the unique technology of the apostles. Although the apostle's forging ability is still much worse than that of humans, it can at least have an extraordinary protective effect. It's just that, even though he was armed to the teeth, his head was still powerlessly separated from his body. And the initiator of all this is actually a lifeless skeleton that he couldn't even look at before.
This, how is this possible. I desperately want to remember all the things that happened not so long ago. But I don't have any memory of anything other than the fact that I wanted to transform these skeleton soldiers. Including how these apostle soldiers were killed and wounded, including how the skeletons who I used as cannon fodder became so powerful. I wasn't impressed at all.
But now, I at least know that it was precisely because of what I did during the period of my amnesia that the whole battle situation was completely reversed on our side, and the balance of victory was already tilted in our side beyond modification. What could be better in the current situation?
"Warriors! Lady Sigh did not hesitate to summon the Celestial Gods except the Ancient for the sake of our victory! Look at these skeletal warriors who have become stronger, look at the corpses of the Apostles all over the ground, these are all done for us by Lady Sigh! Now, in order to summon the Elder Gods, Lady Sigh is weak, but we cannot let these efforts of Lady Sigh for us go to waste! Kill with Lone!" Seeing that I was still hesitating, the Tiger King simply jumped onto a bare rock and let out that king-like roar. The soldiers of the Denomah Empire also became agitated and began to wave their weapons at the nearest apostle soldier without fear of death. Either you die or I die. What if you were an apostle? Could it be an apostle that would give you an extra life?
The apostles were utterly stunned. Isn't that what they have always been a trait of, and why is such a trait actually robbed by the humans? The cowering apostles began to be timid in their hearts, they wanted to reverse the situation, but they could not do anything. Some of the apostles, when they looked at me, even turned around and ran away. And those Apostolic Overseers were useless no matter how much they tried to maintain order, and even some of the Apostle soldiers even aimed their weapons at those Overseers.
Uh, just like that, the original disadvantaged situation suddenly gave us a glimmer of hope? I couldn't be happy at all when I saw the Tiger King and the human armies of the Denoma Empire constantly taking advantage of the victory. Is it possible that I did all this? But since the Tiger King is so sure, there is no need for him to lie to me, then nine times out of ten it will be me. However, the most important question is, since I did all this, why didn't I, as a witness, have the slightest impression? I went around the battlefield and came to the cliff wall of the canyon, holding on to the cliff wall, wanting to know what had happened not long ago...
I was not at all worried about whether there would be any apostolic soldiers against me, for about a minute as I walked along, none of the apostolic soldiers dared to approach ten meters around me. Some of the Apostle soldiers even screamed and threw themselves to the side when they realized that they were blocking my way. In this regard, I can only smile helplessly. And did not kill them.
In the whole roaring battlefield, I was the only undead hiding at the edge of the canyon, as if it had nothing to do with me. If it weren't for the fact that these skeletons were able to complete the tasks I gave them on their own, then this place would be really messed up. I thought I could continue like this until the end of the war, because the Apostles had no way to make it to the top of the canyon, let alone break through our blockade. So, if I can't get there, it doesn't have much impact on the situation. However, I would not have imagined that one of the apostles would have taken direct aim at me.
Just when I was still trying to figure out what had just happened, a sense of crisis arose, and it became more and more intense, I subconsciously dodged to the right, and then I heard the sound of sharp weapons breaking through the cliff, and some broken stones were also flying in all directions, and some even smashed into my face.
This blow woke me up from my trance. Yes, it's still a battlefield, not a place for me to rest. Even if it were me, it was possible that I could confess myself here at any time. When I looked back, I saw that they were two apostles dressed differently from the other apostle soldiers, they were strong and wearing golden armor, and I don't know if they were made of gold or not. One holds a war hammer in his hand, and the other holds a double knife. Although they looked different, there was one thing that was more similar, and that was to look at me angrily at the same time. It seems that the two of them are the high-ranking apostles in this apostolic army.
Fortunately, I was relieved that there were only two of them. It's not too difficult for me to deal with two high-ranking apostles at the same time. Moreover, it seems that what the Tiger King said before is true, that is, among the apostles, there is still a certain degree of internal contradictions. Because the half-blood apostle that the Tiger King mentioned before did not appear here.
"Are you here?" I looked down at the crossbows in my hands, slowly assembling them together. When dealing with high-ranking apostles, there is no room for the slightest mistake. If you only come up with the sharpest attack at the beginning, then you may not have a chance to use your strongest killing move until you die.
When the two crossbows had formed a longbow again, I casually aimed the longbow at the sky. When one of the high-ranking apostles saw my move, he subconsciously flashed to the side, while the other high-ranking apostle burst out laughing.
"Laugh at you!" the high-ranking apostle who flashed to the side shouted at the high-ranking apostle who laughed, "Don't hide yet!"
The laughing apostle was stunned for a moment, and was about to turn his head and ask the hiding high-ranking apostle why he was scolding him, when my longbow already made a soft sound. It was the sound of a bowstring fluttering. Then, I smiled and lowered my black longbow.
The dodging High Apostle trembled with fright, and casually grabbed the corpses of the Apostles and human soldiers on the ground and wrapped himself tightly, while the stupid-looking High Apostle did not react at all. Instead, he continued to laugh: "Look at you coward, that woman just pulled the bowstring, and there are no arrows on it, you are afraid of a fart." ”
But then, he felt a little uncomfortable, and in a panic, he put the hammer in his hand against his head. But due to the previous carelessness, this made him still late. From the sky, five pitch-black arrows suddenly appeared. Two of them targeted the high-ranking apostle who was ready for defense, while the other three were all calling for him.
However, he was a high-ranking apostle after all, and although his previous reaction slowed him down by half a beat, he was still blocked by two arrows with the warhammer in his hand. There was only one arrow left to dodge, so he simply crouched down and threw the hammer aside to protect his head. It also allowed him to avoid the Grim Reaper. The arrow merely pierced his left shoulder, but it didn't have a lethal effect.
And the other apostle, the specialty is obviously speed. After using the bodies of the apostles and humans to protect himself, both arrows were stuck in the corpse without causing any damage to him. Then he screamed, threw away the corpse, and rushed towards me with two knives in his hand, while the other apostle soldier with an arrow in his body could not pick up the hammer again because of the lack of strength in his left shoulder, so he simply picked up a war knife used by the apostle on the ground and ran towards me with a howl.
His fatal blow did not eliminate a threat, but instead drove them crazy. I shook my head secretly. It seems that my previous form is still affecting my performance.
Seeing the high-ranking apostle with the twin swords approaching me as quickly as the wind, I began to do my best to deal with it.
