Chapter 42: The Undead Attack the City
Cold Bamboo City.
Dean Xiao walked briskly up to the south city wall, and then gasped...
The southern sky was completely covered in blood red, and the oncoming smell of blood made him, a veteran who had seen countless battles on the battlefield for many years, couldn't help frowning. It's not the smell of blood, it's the rotten smell of it...
"What's wrong?" Dean Xiao walked quickly to the side of City Lord Guo, whose face turned blue for a while.
"I don't know, the three batches of [Pegasus Knights] I sent out have all disappeared into the blood cloud and disappeared without a trace..."City Lord Guo is a little suspicious of life, and he hasn't done anything hurtful, why are things more serious than one thing happening on his territory these days...
"Let the high-level magus try it with Eagle Eye. Dean Xiao frowned.
"I've tried it, the Eagle Eye Technique that Old Man Chu personally performed, his gaze was hindered by the blood cloud. City Lord Guo shook his head, the old man Chu in his mouth was the current head of the Chu family, the peak demon master, and the top combat power of Hanzhu City.
"There's a special energy interference in that blood cloud. Chu Mo, who was standing beside City Lord Guo, took over the conversation.
"Commander Liao, look..."City Lord Guo hurriedly asked the black-robed man beside him.
"I'm afraid it's a lot of bad luck today. Commander Liao replied in a muffled voice, "I can feel the death energy contained in that blood cloud, let this energy lean into Cold Bamboo City... I'm afraid that Hanzhu City is about to become a dead city!"
"City Lord Guo, you go and prepare the manpower to organize the evacuation work. Commander Liao said in a deep voice, "I also have to contact the Governor's Mansion and the Imperial Capital." ”
"Look, there!", Lu Hai, who came with Dean Xiao, suddenly exclaimed, and everyone hurriedly looked up, and a black line appeared on the southern horizon.
Chu Mo hurriedly used the Eagle Eye Technique, his eyes were filled with blazing white... Immediately, his wrinkled old face turned pale...
"It's the undead!"
"How much...?" Dean Xiao's heart sank.
“... I do not know... That's like the tide of a rising tide..."Chu Mo's face was full of fear, "I'm afraid that in an hour, it will come to us!"
Dean Xiao's pupils shrank slightly
"Chu Qiu, you integrate all the troops of the City Lord's Mansion, and this place will be handed over to your command, and I will arrange for the residents to take refuge!" City Lord Guo's face was extremely embarrassed.
Dressed in a majestic armor, Chu Qiu, who was full of seriousness, stood up, and he gave orders one by one in an orderly manner, and the originally somewhat flustered situation gradually became stable.
He is the most talented person in military affairs in Hanzhu City over the years, although his cultivation is much lower than Lu Hai, but his status in the Chu family is much higher than Lu Hai's status in the Lu family, because he is the [general] that the imperial marshal has also praised.
The military power that had been dormant for a long time in the entire Cold Bamboo City was finally mobilized, and a large number of soldiers left the city to begin to set traps, and these magic traps that had been useless in the past finally came in handy before they were about to decay.
The head of the city raised one after another magic guide cannons, these cannons powered by the [energy storage crystal] designed by the Second Sage have a great range and extremely long combat ability, in the past, such magic guide cannons used magic crystals as energy sources, and the amount of energy provided by such money consumption was much lower.
Whether the Second Sage wanted it or not, many of the convenient magic devices he had invented had also been turned into tools of war.
[Warrior Corps], [Knights of the Breeze], [Magic Regiment], [Pegasus Knights]... The formation of these professionals is the main combat force in the future.
All the civilians in the city began to move to the north, and they were arranged to take refuge in the shelter in the north for a while, and at that time, the panic and chaos that ensued it made the city lord Guo who maintained order very troubled.
At the head of the city, countless warriors were nervous, fearful, and... Determined to wait! Most of them are from Cold Bamboo City, and they have their families behind them... So they were determined to keep the menacing undead out...
——

The blood-red clouds are coming.
Even on the ground, an innumerable army of the undead is pouring in like a tide! It is a tide of black and red, mixed with the occasional white...!
Zombies, skeletons, ghouls, abominations... They roared, excited, and eager!
The "clouds" composed of countless corpse birds and resentful spirits in the sky are overwhelming!
They are getting closer and closer to the city that is full of life and smells of living people... They are looking forward to the feast to come!
A red and purple halo suddenly lit up in the tide of the undead, and the magic power of destruction fluctuated with a shocking loud bang! Red flames were like the sea, and purple thunder and lightning were like pillars!
"Great, it works!" Many warriors in the city cheered when they saw that the magic trap they had set up earlier was very effective, but soon the expressions on their faces froze.
The undead who were shattered by lightning and lightning, the undead who were full of flames... They are already dead, they are not afraid of pain, they are attracted by the breath of the living, and then they are crazy to get the breath of life that they don't have, and this impulse will push them forward, even if their bodies are shattered... Until the soul is broken!
"Fire!" Chu Qiu's voice was sonorous and powerful, and he didn't get confused at all by this crazy attack of the undead.
One after another magic guide cannons lit up, and white pillars of light shot into the black and red sea, causing violent explosions! These magic guide runs are emitting pure magic power, and these pure magic power without attributes seem to have a stronger effect, and the powerful energy vibration directly crushes the souls of many undead.
However... There are only more than a hundred magic cannons in total, and each time the magic cannons are fired, it takes a lot of time to recharge, in order to maintain an uninterrupted attack on the magic cannons, Chu Qiu can only divide more than a hundred magic cannons into eight groups to form alternating firepower...
The undead rushed up without fear of death, and soon they were at the foot of the city walls...
"Breeze Knights Assault! The battle regiment guards the city gate, and the magic group gathers fire to prevent the undead from passing through the city gate!"
The city gate was opened, and a thousand knights were dressed in uniform armor, and their bodies were swirled with true qi of various colors, and they gathered together to use [Charge]! The true qi of various colors finally condensed into a white light, and the knights turned into white sharp knives and pierced the entire sea of undead!
As the knights charged farther and farther, the undead rushed directly towards the city gate that was still wide open, countless warriors raised their shields, and the same various colors were really circulating, and the undead could not take a step beyond the thunder pool!
The natural magicians of the Magic Order have chanted the spell at the head of the city, and the lines of magic fill the entire sky!
Fireballs, Ice Picks, Thunderbolts, Storms...
The undead ushered in the most cruel baptism, but they still persevered...!A large number of undead continued to come, and some even stepped on the bodies of their companions...
At this time, the Knights of the Breeze charged back with a white light...!
Once again, they gouged through the undead and carved a path in the sea of black and red!
Then, with the return of the Knights and so on, the Legion quickly retreated, and then closed the gates tightly...
