Chapter XXXVII: The Holy Grail of Blood I.
In the gloomy castle of Musillon.
The once infinitely beautiful Red Duke was sitting wearily on the cold Iron Throne, staring at the dark elf ravens below.
"So, aren't the dark elves going to join forces with me and divide this world?" The Red Duke asked coldly.
"This is the king's order," said the Raven, "and since the king of Bretonnia is dead, and the prince of Bretonnia has cut off the trade of the High Elves, there is no reason for the Dark Elves to continue their activities on the Old World." ”
The Red Duke said coldly, "But what about the trade between us? ”
"The Dark Elves are going to trade with the victors of Bretonnia, but for now, the odds of your victory are still very low. ”
The Red Duke sneered: "Then it seems that I can't wait for the reinforcements of the dark elves." ”
After the Raven said this, he turned around and left the hall: "A word of advice to Your Excellency, leave as soon as possible, the anger of the Kingdom of Bretonnia is all focused on you at the moment, even if you win this war, but the next battles will put Your Excellency in danger." ”
The Red Duke watched the back of the dark crow disappear in front of his eyes, and he looked at the candle beside him: "I will never accept defeat, although the army of mortals is more than mine, the army of the undead is more disciplined and fearless of death. ”
"Woooooo
A female ghost emerged from the shadows, pale green, and flew like a gas to the Red Duke's side.
The Red Duke stood up from the Iron Throne excitedly: "What about his reply?" ”
She said, "Lu En asked me to tell you. ”
"There is an old saying in the Aurora Empire, that the arrow shot out has a back? Does the water of the Yellow River flow backwards? If you are the Red Duke who ties the sheep around the neck and surrenders with Lilly, you still do not lose the position of a marquis, and if you fight to the end, then you wash your dog's head and wait in the city of Musilon, and when my Bretonnian army captures this city, I will slaughter the city for three days to show the power of heaven. ”
The Red Duke was stunned for a moment, and then the Red Duke let out a violent laugh, which echoed throughout the hall, and then said, "I have not suffered such a disgrace since I was resurrected from the grave. ”
"All...... All the dead have to take revenge on the humans outside, and now I will let those nobles know what it means to be strong for the dead. ”
Yes, there is no way back in Musiron, and there is no hope, because here, the Red Duke can't wait for the coalition he wants, although the undead have no concept of logistics and morale, but after a long time, Bretonnia's army will continue to attack Musilon.
At that time, even if the Red Duke had a strong army, it would not be possible to defeat Bretonnia.
On the other hand, if the Red Duke chooses to lead the entire army to fight a decisive battle with the noble alliance of Bretonnia right now, if he wins, he can obtain a large number of corpses for refining, and if he fails, then it will only be a defeat in the end.
The Red Duke looked at everything around him with a grim look on his face, and then hurried out of the hall.
The blood-red armor looked particularly hideous even in this cold Gothic castle.
……………… Gorgeous dividing line..................
A horse-drawn carriage drove along the country road, and the surrounding scenery gradually changed from a lush forest to a withered forest.
Lu En raised his hand, and the carriage stopped, and he jumped out of the carriage and walked to the side of the river, only to see him put his hand into the river in front of him, and then said, "The water here has become a lot weaker." ”
Lu En looked worriedly at the river upstream, and a sentence that Alboric had said to him came to his mind: "It's good that you succeed, but if you fail, if you let me know that there is a possibility of failure, I will put down the water upstream and destroy the whole of Musilon." ”
"I can't bear the fact that the Red Duke has a chance to resupply his troops in the rear, and you don't have much time, because I can't see the corresponding results in a week at the latest, and the whole of Muslon will be in a water attack."
Lu En looked into the carriage and saw Catherine poking her head out of the carriage: "We only have more than a hundred warriors, although they have mixed into the city of Musilon, but with us, it is still impossible to defeat the defenders of the city of Musilon with nearly 700 undead." ”
Lu En smiled: "No, there are 10,000 humans in the entire Musilon city, even if it is reduced under the rule of the vampires, at least there are about 8,000 people in the entire Musilon city." ”
Lu En said lightly: "These people are all our soldiers, and in the next Holy War of the Undead, no one will stay out of it." ”
After saying this, Lu En climbed back into the carriage, he looked at Catherine in the carriage and said, "Why do you want to follow me to Musilon as a wood elf?" ”
Catherine, who was at the back of the carriage, wrapped her hat around the pointed ears on her head: "I don't want to see you hurt, because this is the will of the goddess of the lake." ”
She stared at Lu En in front of her very seriously: "Listen, you are not alone in this world. ”
Lu En smiled reluctantly and sat back in his chair, he had the fate of many people in his hands at the moment, and naturally he would not be alone.
As the carriage walked along the vampire's path, it soon came to the corner of a troubled wall, which was extremely quiet, with a door that had never been closed on the side of the tattered wall.
In fact, after the first glimpse of the dilapidated walls of Musiron, Lu En concluded that the Red Duke would definitely not protect the city.
No one would stick to such a place that could break the city at any time.
As the carriage gradually drove into the entire Musilon, the human guards guarding the area on the city walls were relieved with only a faint glance at the carriage.
It is worth mentioning that most of the skeleton warriors who usually maintain law and order in the undead have now left the town of Muslon with the Red Duke's troops, and the city is guarded by ordinary people who have been temporarily recruited, and it is still unknown how much they identify with this undead regime.
Lu En felt a little uneasy, and since he entered Musilon's town, he had felt a majestic force gradually surging towards him.
A wave of sleepiness hit Lu En's head, and he involuntarily closed his eyes.
He only saw such a scene in front of him, only to see Lilian, the fairy of the lake riding on a horse, looking at Lu En proudly: "My knight, please purify this city and completely annihilate those terrifying undead." ”
