The red blood-colored light curtain engulfed the city, and Xiao Yan found that no matter how much he whipped the wyvern he was riding, he could no longer gain height.

"Yuri, these guys, this is too bottomless!" Xiao Yan watched as the blood light rushed in, and the hind limbs and tail of the flying dragon were slowly broken down into red particles, which then spread to the wings.

Oh no! Xiao Yan was horrified to see that everything below his knees had disappeared, and he didn't even have time to feel the pain.

How so! How can it be like this?! I took the wrong step.

The light curtain devoured the body of the flying dragon, and Xiao Yan, who was only half of his body left, fell down with a howl.

"Ahh

……

"Ahh Xiao Yan sat up in horror and found himself lying on the floor with all his beards and tails, "Huh?!" Is it a dream? ”

Beside him was a simple marching bed, on which Sonia lay and had not yet woken up, and the marching blanket could not hide the charming lines. Because of the tight space, Xiao Yan spread a blanket on the side and took a nap.

Then I had a nightmare......

It seems that the entire city of the last world was refined into the Philosopher's Stone, which left a deep shadow on me.

If...... If you really get to that point, you will be completely caught up in the layout and power suppression of other contractors, and watch yourself slide towards inevitable death little by little.

What a hopelessness!

……

After annihilating the troops led by Kakin, Xiao Yan and Sonya's mission has actually been completed. The disturbing news from the front line still came from time to time, Xiao Yan seemed to be relaxed on the surface, but the worry about the occupation lingered in his heart.

If the orc army rushes straight to the city and fills the trenches to enter the city, their task of building a group will end here.

Even though the basic tasks have been completed, the higher rewards will not be obtained.

In this treacherous space, one step behind is one step behind, and in the end, there is probably no room for even a counterattack.

Xiao Yan rubbed his face.

It's time to make up your mind!

……

Most of the tens of thousands of refugees have moved into the city, while the remaining have been resettled in a coastal port in the southwest near the Darrenmere Sea, where it is easier to evacuate and provide relief.

The 1,700-strong family army lost nearly 200 killed in the battle, and nearly 400 wounded, which, combined with previous battle losses, left just over a thousand. Odessa's city guard lost more than half of its weight in a chaotic stampede. Governor Othello urgently recruited 2,000 men and barely managed to maintain law and order.

Since there were spare refugees, Xiao Yan asked the Odessa authorities to pay for the recruitment of a large number of refugees for work. In two days, the camp of the Lamor family was greatly expanded, and the trench was dug deep and wide, turning it into a large ditch 4 meters deep and 5 meters wide, and the camp was doubled and enlarged, occupying a low hill outside the city, and turning it into an 8-corner fortress, and the base was built with huge stones.

The camp has barracks, hospitals, baths, toilets, sewers and headquarters. Sonia no longer has to hide in a wooden barracks. In the center of the fortress was built a brick and wood structure headquarters, spacious and bright. Governor Othello sent a lot of furniture to make it very comfortable.

Xiao Yan and Sonia patrol the massive fortress along the vast and majestic city walls, now known as Fort La Morr. With this fortress echoing the city of Odessa, there is no need to worry about being surrounded in the city. Moreover, each other can send troops to each other for reinforcements, and the defense capability is greatly improved.

The Lamor family recruited nearly 2,000 recruits to join the fort to intensify training, and many of the wounded soldiers were not seriously injured and have recovered. This makes the power in Xiao Yan's hands have exceeded 3,200 people.

"The report of the day before yesterday said that the fortress is still in our hands, even if the orcs broke through the fireplace fort yesterday and rushed south, it would not be too late to capture Odessa." Xiao Yan looked into the distance, "As long as a part of the army is withdrawn, plus the troops of Qiulin and Kongdai, it is not difficult to hold Odessa." We may even be able to exceed our targets. ”

"Uh-huh!" Sonia had no clue about the war, but in the past two days, she has handled relations with all walks of life in Odessa very properly, and has successfully brought in a large number of war materials. After one victory after another, she had begun to believe that as long as Xiao Yan was there, she would be able to successfully complete the task.

"Report!" A herald hurried up the rampart, "Fireplace Fort Urgent." ”

Sonia took the report, unfolded it, and almost screamed.

"Is the Fireplace Castle lost?" Xiao Yan saw her expression and thought that it was finally the last moment.

"Fort Hearthplace is lost, and Prince Commodus is gone......" Sonya's face turned pale, "the army is all gone......"

What the......

Xiao Yan originally thought that even if he couldn't hold the fireplace fort, the army should be able to withdraw to the second line, but he didn't expect it to be completely wiped out.

"How is that possible!" Xiao Yan hurriedly got the emergency report, read it several times from top to bottom, and almost saw through the letter, "The back road is safe, how is this completely annihilated!" ”

After the two lords of Qiulin and Kong Dai were sure that Xiao Yan had annihilated the troll troops, they immediately turned back to the Fireplace Castle, and were intercepted by the orc forces halfway through.

Reports of a behemoth as tall as a hill entering the battlefield, towns and legions as toys in front of them, lifting a rock the size of a mill and throwing it at hand.

The two lords' forces were heavily wounded as soon as they engaged, and after losing a third of their troops, they retreated from the battlefield in disarray.

Soldiers routed from the front were found in all rear towns. They threw away their armor and ran everywhere, and everyone was terrified to tell the tragedy of the army.

"Sergeant, has the team from the territory arrived?"

"Yes Commander! This morning has arrived, and they have come day and night, and they are now resting. Do you want me to wake them up? ”

"You don't have to wake them all up. I went over on my own. Xiao Yan and Sonya hurried down the city wall together, "By the way, inform the troops not to let the armies of other lords enter the fortress, and let them go to the city of Odessa." ”

Xiao Yan was so depressed that he thought as he walked: "I didn't expect that the back hand that was arranged before was really necessary to be launched." ”

"No problem!" Sonia followed Xiao Yan worriedly, "Do you need me to do something?" ”

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, just remembered that she was still following behind, patted her head and said: "You go to the Governor's Palace, report the situation to everyone, if it is too late to evacuate, you must mobilize all forces to strengthen the guards of the city wall as soon as possible." ”

"They don't have a choice." Xiao Yan thought for a while and added, "Leave the rest to me." ”

Looking at the light and elegant figure of the girl when she left, Xiao Yan turned his head and walked towards the basement of the freshly dug fortress.

"Prince Commodus, I didn't expect you to be so poor...... Xiao Yan pushed open the door of the basement in frustration.

Walking down the gloomy staircase to the underground, Xiao Yan, who pushed the door open, saw a familiar scene again—flasks, test tubes, petri dishes, and boiling green pus.

The necromancer has been brought here with reinforcements. His experiments and production materials were also sent in the name of munitions.

"Fellow of Suwert." Xiao Yan walked towards the necromancer who was busy, "It's good to see you here...... Ok, good, good! Don't complain, I've got you covered with a good thing that is definitely worth the trip. ”

This necromancer has a constipated expression on his face that you have delayed my experiments, my lich path, my path to godhood, and there is not the slightest hint of self-consciousness as a slave.

"Bell, bell! Demon Skull! Xiao Yan took out the demon skull he had obtained from the Great Witch Doctor Usulei. He couldn't learn this thing without enough knowledge of the undead and demons, but it was different for Suwert.

Even if the attributes are suppressed, the necromancer is the necromancer, and his lifelong study and research results are not to deceive children.

Suwot's eyes, as if he had lost his life, were suddenly filled with curiosity and happiness!

"It's amazing, this skull contains priceless knowledge, and there are no more than 5 people in this world who can interpret it!"

Xiao Yan pursed his lips and complained in his heart: "You can pull it down, I saw a barbarian witch doctor playing with my own eyes." ”

"Please give me this skull." Suwert said solemnly, "With it, the experiments you need will make a huge breakthrough. ”

"What time? How, exactly? "Xiao Yan doesn't want to be fooled.

"Soon, this skull answered my long-standing question, and its very existence was almost equivalent to knowledge. Your Excellency comes with me. Suwot took Xiao Yan to the secret room on the side and opened the heavy iron door. Xiao Yan found that there were several humans locked inside who had been completely ghouls, and when they smelled the human breath, they immediately rushed towards Xiao Yan.

"This skull contains demonic knowledge and is capable of completing the final repair of the plague virus I have developed. As you can see, patients infected by the plague virus can only turn into such imbecile and weak monsters, and they are thousands of miles away from great power. It is possible that a powerful individual will mutate in the infected, but that will take too long, and may take anywhere from years to centuries. ”

"With the genetic information in this skull, I can make an entirely new agent of infection, selectively enhancing the infected body according to the needs of the host. Enhanced infected individuals will most likely retain intact intelligence while gaining at least one mutation. ”

Xiao Yan nodded: "What about the success rate?" ”

"It's demonic power, Your Excellency." Suwert's eyes flashed like ghostly fire, "The success rate is naturally extremely low. But with this demon skull, I was able to screen infected subjects in advance, so I didn't have to cause a large number of infected deaths. ”

"Very well, let's get started." Xiao Yan nodded with satisfaction, "Make a few copies as soon as possible." I'll arrange the test subjects. "By the way, there's one more thing." Xiao Yan hesitated.

"Let's start that."

Suwot raised his head in surprise and looked at Xiao Yan as if he was looking at a monster.

"What do you think...... You're the devil! ”
