Chapter 7: Nataya's Secret
The rhetoric he had spoken in front of Marshal Alonso before the expedition, and his confidence in the face of Randall's rout, had all vanished on this gloomy night.
Whether it was the Imperial soldiers wielding swords and shields and stabbing at the undead, or those who fired at the undead with bows and crossbows, without exception, their attacks were ineffective, and they could only watch as the rusty weapons from the void pierced their flesh-and-blood bellies alive.
The screams of pain were so clear in Brigadier General Harrov's ears.
There was no time to retreat, and there was no order to retreat, these Imperial soldiers were all well-trained Imperial elites, and there was not a single deserter at this time of life and death.
It's so tragic, it's not a war at all, it's a massacre.
More than 30,000 Imperial soldiers were left with corpses left after less than half an hour of fighting.
At this time, the only survivors were Brigadier General Harrov and the elite guards and some high-ranking officers around him. There were no more than two dozen of these people combined, and around them were hundreds of thousands of green and glittering undead armies.
At this time, in the forest outside the barracks, an even more terrifying army came out. This is also an undead, but a more terrifying undead.
At the front of the queue are the legendary Death, dark-skinned, sheep-headed monsters from the underworld, armed with huge scythes. Followed by some necromancers, these are already undead wizards, and their strength should not be underestimated. Walking at the end is a team of evil spirit knights, who ride ghost horses, and are definitely powerful high-level undead.
The boundless army of the undead consciously made way for this army of the undead. Soon the Death Clan surrounded Harrov and them, and Harrov and they forgot to resist and had to be slaughtered.
Then a large number of necromancers summoned the souls of the 30,000 fallen Imperial soldiers in front of Harrov in an instant. A large area of green resentful spirits was summoned in this way, this is the lowest level of undead, and it is also the soul of the imperial soldier just now.
An evil spirit knight, who seemed to be the commander of this army, rode a ghost horse to Harov. Harrov's trembling hand dropped the steel sword in his hand to the ground, and the others lost the last will to resist.
In this way, from the soldiers of the empire to the generals who are high above, they are only lambs to the slaughter at the moment.
The night, no wind, self-cold, this bone-chilling finally ended with the brushing of more than 20 human heads on the ground. The blood-dripping scythes of the dead declared a complete defeat in the battle against the army of the undead. Humanity will face the undead in a tidal wave, and the end of the era.
At the other end of the town of Boship, Nataya and I finally returned with Avina. After a lot of hardships and deaths, I'm glad that we can still find Avina and that she's still alive.
I don't know if it was the Elven Leather Armor that protected her, or if she didn't deserve to die, but it was all fateful to let us meet again.
Because Frante and the others also followed Randall's army to Boshipp, so that our Demon Hunters finally regrouped in the town of Boshipp.
Small towns, the people of the Order, the people of the Demon Hunters, and the people of Lord Randall all gathered here to fight the undead.
There is another thing that we did not expect, and it happened here.
When Nataya meets Lord Randall, we learn something we didn't know all along.
It turned out that Nataya was also the blood of the Hill family, and she didn't expect that Nataya was also from a noble family. However, from Nataya's temperament, it can actually be seen that she has an extraordinary background.
It's just that we didn't expect that she turned out to be a member of the Hill family of Fredden in the Delman Empire.
Nataya's mother is Randall Hill's older sister, and Nataya also grew up under the care of her family. From a young age, she was curious about new things and had a strong aptitude for magic.
Once again, by chance, Nataya befriended a magician from the Magical Sanctuary. Nataya really wanted to be a magician because she felt that magicians were people with great powers and great knowledge.
To say that becoming a magician is really not an easy task, first of all, to become a magician, you must have an affinity for the magic element and a spiritual power that is different from ordinary people.
Magical elements are found throughout the world, but they are barely perceptible to ordinary people, and can only be perceived by some gifted or specially trained people.
The meaning of magic is to control these magical elements through one's own powerful spiritual power, and condense them into more mellow magic power in the body. Therefore, magic is almost the second life force for magicians.
Magical elements are the basic materials contained in heaven and earth, but they are very unstable and difficult to use directly. The magic power is controlled by its own mental power after processing and polishing, and it can be used directly after the stable finished product.
Therefore, the strength of a magician often depends on whether the person's mental power and the magic power in his body are strong. Of course, at this time, the elemental affinity is particularly important, only if the elemental affinity is strong enough, and the spiritual power is also strong enough, his ability to condense and process and transform into his own magic power can be strong.
This is why, ordinary people often decide at the level of elemental affinity that they are destined to have no chance with magicians in their lives, let alone spiritual power.
As for releasing a magic, it is through means such as thoughts, or urging spiritual power or soul power, to release the magic power in the body to form a magic.
Therefore, chanting spells and so on is just a means, and the origin is still to let the spiritual power release magic through means to form magic.
Our Nataya, like most people, has to go through an elemental affinity test if she wants to learn magic.
After testing, our nataya has a high affinity for the fire element, and her spiritual power has also been tested by that magician, and she has obtained a result that is 6 times higher than ordinary people's spiritual power.
Therefore, Nataya's qualifications are extremely suitable for being a magician. The young magician successfully became Nataya's mentor and the leader of Nataya's magical path.
However, the Hills are a conservative and stubborn family, they are too traditional, and they are both fearful and repulsive about magic. Nataya is an anomaly, and even her mother doesn't understand her. Nataya felt lonely, and only her mentor accompanied her and enlightened her that she saw a glimmer of hope.
Over time, the two young hearts have a deeper bond with each other.
