Chapter 339: Traces of the Undead

From south to north, the low, dark clouds gradually thinned, and the distance between heaven and earth seemed to lengthen, and the thin clouds were like a layer of vague frosted glass, and the sky light could be faintly seen from above. 「」

The farther north they went, the sky seemed to get brighter, and the soldiers on the march had the feeling that the day was lengthening.

The ice sheet still has the same wind, but there are fewer cases of snow particles accompanying it, and it seems that the water here is getting thinner.

It is now late autumn and winter, and due to the season, Lin An has rarely seen animals on the three-day journey.

In fact, even in an environment like the ice field, it seems that life is extinct, but in fact, there are always many wild creatures, not to mention the ice bear and snow leopard, the frozen soil under the three-foot ice layer is a paradise for many creatures.

It's just that these animals rarely appear in front of man - since the time man set foot on this land, although not yet fully conquered, he has become a veritable overlord.

The movement of tens of thousands of troops marching on the ice field can wake up the winter bears that are hibernating dozens of feet underground, and all the living creatures have already bypassed the smell of so many human gatherings from afar. 「」

Therefore, the march of the army was basically not hindered much, and even if it occasionally encountered a sporadic group of demons from the east, it could not set off any ripples.

"With this itinerary, we can reach the Selida Ice Valley before nightfall."

Surrounded by heavy troops, two middle-aged people were talking in a low voice, one wrapped his thin body in a thick and gorgeous white snow leopard skin, and the decorative thin stabbed sword at his waist showed that he did not have strong martial arts, but in his left hand, a strong demon wolf, the middle-aged man with an obvious and prominent position respected him, showing his unusual status in the team.

These two men were none other than Williams, the highest-ranking legion commander in this army of 30,000 men. Moggie and his most respected military adviser, Eliot. Leo.

"The soldiers are also tired from three days of continuous marching, and tonight can give the soldiers a good night's rest," said Commander Williams. Moji's face had the majesty that he had cultivated over the years, and a faint frown could make people feel a heavy pressure, "Kyle Keyes hasn't returned yet?" ”

Kyle Keyes is the white-armored knight who came forward at the swearing-in ceremony, and the second son of the commander of the Moji Army, less than thirty years old, is already recognized as a rising star in the military, and is given high hopes, this time under his father, he became one of the three commanders, commanding the front army.

"It's the first time that Xiao has officially mastered an army of 10,000 people, and the legion commander still shouldn't put too much pressure on him." 」”

Elliot. Leo smiled lightly, he had become a retainer of the Moggie family, although in the army he was generally unkind to Williams. Moji addressed the commander of the legion, but in private, he still called his second son Xiao, to show his dignity and inferiority, showing that even if he was valued by the head of the family, he would not forget the difference between the lord and the minister.

As he spoke, he looked ahead.

In the front army of 30,000 people, the protagonist in the dialogue between the two has a slightly gloomy face, looking at an outpost scout who has been brought in by the guards.

The scout had already fallen from the snow wolf, and was kneeling on one knee in front of the Kelketh Commander, blocking Kelkes's advance, and by the way, even the guards who were in charge of arching around Kyrkes had to stop.

"Keep marching!"

Seeing that the army array next to him was slowing down, Commander Kyle Keyes waved his right hand with a stainless steel glove, and at the same time lifted the reins, driving the sturdy demon wolf under the seat, and the scout said, "Keep up!" ”

The scout and the guards were well-trained to keep up.

"What's the matter, there's something wrong with that ice valley in front of you?"

It's just an ice valley in the habitat of a former demon, and the people below follow the routine to do outposts, and if they don't get a return for a long time, they even pull the scout captain in front of him, and Kyle Keith smells that something is wrong. 「」

But if it is an ambush by the infiltrated demon army, then it is impossible for a few scouts to report back, and the forward team should immediately raise the alarm of an enemy attack, instead of bringing people to him.

Therefore, Kyle Keyes couldn't figure out what was going on, but he felt in his heart that it shouldn't be a matter of being so strict - as long as there were no traces of demons, it wouldn't be a problem.

"Back to the commander, the specific situation, the villain is not very clear......"

The scout captain's answer in front of Kyle Keys can be said to be a bastard, if it weren't for his grief-stricken appearance, Kelkes would have directly pulled people to the military order to deal with the first sentence like this, and he wouldn't have listened to the scout captain say it slowly.

It turned out that this scout captain received the detection mission, and when he sent the team to carry out the mission, he did not go to the ice valley with his subordinates, but divided his ten-person team into two teams, and went to the ice valley to report this safer mission, led by his deputy captain, and he led the remaining four people to conduct reconnaissance near the ice valley.

Supposedly, this distribution was completely reasonable, and the scout captain was not negligent in his duties, and Kyle Keyes's handsome and indifferent face like a sculpture softened slightly, and nodded slightly. 「」

However, the five-member team led by the deputy captain to the Ice Valley never returned, and no news came out.

And because the scout captain chose the outermost and usually the most dangerous area when conducting perimeter detection, when he noticed that something was wrong, the four soldiers he led to search and detect on the periphery also lost their voice unconsciously.

This scout captain is also a veteran, the situation is not right, he is worried that no one will go to the interrogation, he only dares to sneak close to the valley, but he does not dare to approach, just in time to see one of his subordinates screaming out of the valley, completely crazy, screaming that there is a ghost, and he can't recognize him at all.

"Crazy?"

Kyle Keyes frowned.

After listening to the scout captain's report, he judged that no matter what happened in the ice valley, the changes inside would definitely not be able to threaten the army behind him, otherwise the other party would have attacked it a long time ago, and would not pretend to be a ghost inside.

As the former commander of the 30,000-strong army, with 10,000 troops in his hands, he paid more attention to this incident and the impact that the crazy soldier had on the morale of the army.

"The ice valley is not a problem, but if it affects morale, even the enemies killed will not be enough to make up for it." 」”

He thought in his heart that he had already regarded the changes in the Ice Valley as a small group of demon soldiers lurking in to play tricks, "However, according to this view, the teams and caravans stationed in the Ice Valley have probably all been wiped out, and what happened at the right time, there was no news back to the back camp?" ”

But he was relieved when he thought about it.

"The rear battalion and these separate troops are generally in contact once every ten days, and I am afraid that the enemy's attack will happen to be in the middle of the ten-day gap between the two contacts -- the Chinese army was defeated so suddenly that our Western Front did not have time to react, and the lives of the soldiers were sacrificed in vain."

Thinking that the wandering soldiers of the demon clan had lurked so close to the rear camp, and how many soldiers of the sub-garrison army in front of him had similar encounters, Kyle Keyes couldn't help but feel very heartbroken - the relationship between the Western Front and the Chinese Army was not incompatible, after all, the front command was in the Chinese Army, but the rout of the Chinese Army caused the current situation, and the Western Army said that there was no dissatisfaction with the incompetence of the Chinese Army, that was impossible.

"What about the soldier? Bring people to ask! Point, don't let him make a sound, affect the feelings of the other soldiers! ”

The captain of the guard on the side gave an order, and then turned to a guard knight and said, "Go to the commander of the Moji Legion to report the situation here, but whether there is an enemy ambush is still to be investigated." ”

He is Kyle's confidant, the son of a retainer of the Moggie family, and has been cultivated as a retainer to assist Kyleketh since he was a child, growing up with Kylekes, and has always been the most thoughtful of Kylekes, so he has the right to give orders on behalf of Kyleketh in some small matters.

The deranged soldier was quickly covered with strips of cloth, and Kyle's guards formed a tight circle around him, separating the inside and out, preventing the soldiers from prying eyes and hearing what was going on.

"Huh?"

A mage in a thin blue robe beside Kyle Keys couldn't help but let out a surprised voice after seeing the soldier with a lot of flowers.

"See the problem? Master Timothy. Kyle Keyes asked. Although he is not afraid of the abnormal situation that the scout captain said, he attaches importance to it, otherwise he will not acquiesce to the approach of the captain of the guard.

"I smell the filthy stench of the wraith!"

The blue-robed mage held a staff the length of a cane, and covered his nose with one hand, as if the taste of the wraith in his mouth was really very foul, and waved his hand at the soldiers who were struggling to suppress the crazy scout.

"Get out of the way, I'll try to banish the resentment from him."

With the sound of a long and mysterious incantation, a flash of white light converged on Master Timothy's staff, and Kylkais and the surrounding people who had cultivated Dou Qi all took a step back, because they could feel that the light condensed on Master Timothy's staff was less than the size of a fist, and there was a clear rejection of the Dou Qi they were cultivating.

Mage Timothy was not in the same situation as Kyle Keys and the others, he obviously had some difficulty condensing this white ball of light, and when this ball of light formed a complete circle, he immediately spelled, and the staff pointed at the soldier, "Purifying light!" ”

A holy white light shrouded the soldier, and other onlookers could clearly see that a large amount of black qi flew out of the soldier's body in the white light, annihilating in the white light.

The black smoke slowly thinned, the purifying light disappeared, and the blood-red eyes of the soldier who was constantly struggling became weak and fell asleep.

Master Timothy released another water of rejuvenation, this time without even a lengthy spell, he cast it as soon as he raised his staff, and then said with a wry smile:

"To make you laugh, I'm not good at light purification spells, but I didn't expect that just by entering the Ice Valley, this soldier would be contaminated with so much resentment, it seems that the resentful spirits inside are raging very strongly!"

When Kyle Keyes heard this, his brow furrowed deeply.

……

When there was a turmoil on Kyle's side, in the ranks of the Chinese army, Lin An and Sidney stood on a chariot.

"has been here before." Lin An looked in the direction of the ice valley in front of him.

"I asked about the smell of the undead." Sidney's voice was low and calm, but there was a flash of excitement in his out-of-focus eyes.
