【Road to the Sun】13: Undead Legion
"Undead Legion ......"
After hearing Akali's report, Reginard muttered the name, "Sure enough, they were brought here by Du Kekao. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"You know?" Akali asked, and Reginard nodded, his gaze falling on the field of the sword competition in the distance. Soldiers with swords come and go, and the winner competes with the winner again.
"It seems that this time, Du Kecao has brought almost most of the elite of Noxus. Even the forces of the 1st Army Department were called. ”
"First Army?"
"Noxus is an iron-blooded militaristic state, the military department is synonymous with power, and the third military department is a mixture, to be exact, they are all just experiments. After Du Kecao was given the title of Great General, he fought abroad for many years, and the surviving descendants were the terrifying bloody elite under his command, and they were the main force of the Second Army Headquarters. And promoted layer by layer, only the most elite and strong people with unique skills can enter the first military department. Reginad said slowly, "The Undead Legion is one of the combat forces of the First Army. ”
Akali gasped as her fingers tapped uneasily against the handle of the shinobi hanging from her waist, recalling the horror she had seen in the forest.
That strange tiger has extraordinary strength, and if you fight her, I am afraid that it will not be left behind. But it couldn't do substantial damage to the huge undead giant, so it could only retreat.
His strange body can repair itself by bonding flesh and blood, and the scene is disgusting and terrifying.
The image of the Blood-Pupil Giant wielding a battle axe to drive away the beasts replayed in her mind, and he rushed into the herd as if he were walking on the ground, and the fierce beasts would even retreat when the soldiers saw it, but their brute force was like a child wrestling with adults in front of the giant, and they were easily knocked to the ground, and the giant axe was disemboweled.
And there is more than one such giant.
"Anyone else? You said the First Military Department. ”
"The First Army Department is the descendant army of the Great General Darkville, and the Undead Legion has been established through black magic and technology in recent years, and its combat power is amazing. The combat power of the First Army Department is amazing, it is the elite of the elite, and even the most powerful kingdom of Demacia in Valoran has to avoid its edge. The Undead Legion is only a part of it, at least now there is no information about other armies affiliated with the First Army Department, but ......"
"It's good that they're only partially here." Akali breathed a sigh of relief, but became worried again. Just a part, a part of the country's military power, is enough to push Ionia to the brink of destruction.
"That's right. It's just that the use of the forces of the First Army Department is a must-win for Noxus. "And even the blood-colored elite under Du Kekao are the devils who have destroyed countless cities and tribes. ”
"Are you going to ...... What to do? ”
Reginard shook his head, "Hold on." The situation is not optimistic, and the outside world must be made aware of the current situation. I'll try to call for help. ”
He looked at the training ground with a compassion in his eyes, like the eyes of a god.
There was something out of age about this man, Akali thought.
Zeros' feet looked weak from the morning's match, and his opponent noticed this and tried to attack his lower set, but when he changed his moves, he was caught and hit hard by Zeros, and he was quickly defeated.
Zelos earned enough points for the team to advance to the finals of the fencing competition.
Today's situation was much better, and after a whole morning of physical training in a weight-bearing race, they were not like a group of soft-footed shrimp like they were yesterday, and they couldn't even hold their swords.
Reginard was trying to create a great difficulty in front of them, like the constant training every day, the weight-bearing race in the morning made them tired, thirsty, and hot, and the fencing competition in the afternoon forced them to move, so that their arm muscles became sore, and they couldn't lift them. At night, they had difficulty sleeping soundly, and in the middle of the night teams were constantly pulled to the training ground to race, and the losers continued to be punished.
And he wants them to find themselves able to overcome this seemingly impossible odds, and they will find that every day they are significantly better than they were yesterday.
When they find out that "it's not as hard as they think," they start believing in miracles.
Even if he actually cheated, because in part of this miracle, it was because the magic potion secretly helped their bodies. They spill into the soldiers' water and food, leaving no trace, but nourishing their bodies deep within their bones and muscles.
But what can four or five days of training change?
No amount of training can turn a group of recruits into an indestructible army.
What Reginald has to do now is give them faith. And teach them to survive on the battlefield, more skills and experience, and the protracted war will be taught to them slowly.
"By the way, your scout team has brought back something useful. I've already called for someone to be transported to the command post. His expression relaxed, and he said to her.
"What's that?"
"Some samples of dirt and water."
"You mean ......"
"Hmm. Six villages were gassed, and I made some simple comparisons. It's not the same as Starfall's poison gas composition, and it's not the work of the same apothecary, which means that this time we're not dealing with Apothecary Master Warwick. It's a guy who is more unskilled, but has some special ideas. ”
"Inexperienced geniuses?"
"Yes, he's experimenting, and the dead villagers are his guinea pigs. If I'm lucky, I'll be able to develop an antidote. However, poison gas is not something that can be easily dealt with by taking an antidote. ”
"yes."
"There's always a way." Reginard thought.
Poison gas is indeed a troublesome matter, and the defenders of the city must hold their positions and maintain the fire network, once there is a gap in the fire network, the enemy will take advantage of it. However, poison gas, even if there is an antidote, needs to be quickly evacuated to a place with clean air, which is a very fatal problem for defending the city.
"By the way, have you seen the nine-tailed demon fox in this commotion of the beast herd?"
Akali hesitated for a moment, then shook her head, if there really was such a strange monster beast, she would definitely be impressed.
Reginad nodded, he didn't know that Ahri was desperately trying to save him at the hands of the Noxian assassins, Soraka told him about it, and also told him about her injuries, and she went to the danger zone controlled by the Noxians to find herbs and break the curse of blood for him, everything, every single thing.
He remembered those days in the Psychedelic Forest, but now he thought of them as beautiful days as psychedelic as they were unreal, with fresh air and fine golden light floating between the trees, like fireflies, but haunting the forest during the day.
He was so tired that he didn't have time to thank her, and from the time he was woken up by her efforts, he hurried back to Ionia to arrange training.
Now that the forest has been destroyed like this, he only prays in his heart that she will be safe in the end.
"One thing I need to tell you, the scout team lost a member, the Noxians killed him, and because of the deep position, the other team members couldn't bring his body back. His name is Zog, the hero of this operation. ”
"Hmm." "Attrition is inevitable. I'll go first, and I'll discuss countermeasures with my senior brother today. Questions about the undead giants. ”
"Okay."
Akali left the training ground, she felt her heart clogged, she remembered how she had pulled him out of the trees and from behind the bushes again and again yesterday morning. I also remember that yesterday afternoon, this thin man named Zoge was one of the few people who could refine ninja energy, and he stayed behind for a short ninjutsu training. Akali taught him the Earth Escape Technique, which can hide his body and travel under the ground, which is a ninjutsu for reconnaissance.
But now, he has turned into a corpse.
She returned to the training ground reserved for the Balance Sect, where Kenan was training throwing classes, and these ninja equipment had been recovered by risking his return to the Sect's dojo, and although they could not be used as weapons for regular soldiers, ninjas could still have their own training methods.
She sat next to her, looking at the ninjas who were being trained, could it be that she was training them to push them to their deaths?
But if we don't do that, more people will die.
