Chapter 202: Dark Magic
Higg continued: "The Silent Forest and the Lakason Plateau are also our foundations, the enclaves of the Fifth Legion, which cannot be lost yet! I'm not too worried about Nicole's revival fleet, with Daniel here, the revival fleet will only lose part of its sea dominance at most, and it will be on an equal footing with Arad's sixth theater of operations! But if the Lakason Plateau and the Silent Forest are lost, we will lose our geographical connection with the Forest Country, and we will lose the support of the elves, so the current situation is that the Luojia River Plain is only a disease of ringworm, and the Silent Forest is a big problem! We did fall for it, but it wasn't that easy for Arad to take down my Silent Forest! I can't be led by the nose by Arad, so I'll leave the Roga River Plain to you! ”
Rogson immediately stepped forward and said, "Young Marshal, now is the time to employ people, please let me and Snorlin stay!" ”
Seeing the hesitation, Snoring continued: "Young Marshal, please let me and Rogson stay, we are willing to be a pawn of the army, and we will definitely not cause trouble for the deputy marshal of West Malaysia and General Mewo!" ”
Higg nodded and said, "You two are the elders of the Fifth Legion, and to be honest, I don't want you to continue to suffer for the Fifth Legion!" But as you said, the situation is critical, and the situation has to be a last resort, you can directly report to the deputy marshal Simak, how to arrange, you just listen to the order! ”
Rogerson and Snorlin were overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Yes! ”
……
Simak and Mevo's army still had a lot of work to do, and Higg, Blue Fairy, and Delonso were the first to return to Bavaria, because here, there was a special way back to the Silent Forest, from which it was possible to reach the Silent Forest or the Lakason Plateau.
With Benjamin's 3,000 marksmen, 2,000 elven marksmen, and 500 battle dwarves, the sporadic rebellion would not cause any panic at all, and the other cities were temporarily controlled by the Arad coalition, but when Simak and Mevo's armies returned, everything would soon be calm. A few thousand Alad coalition troops, plus some rebellious local forces, are not worth mentioning at all.
After nearly a year of operation by Xige and Lan Xian'er, the Luojia River Plain has gradually taken control of the overall situation and has become the real rear of Xige and the Fifth Legion. But with the military barrier of the Fifth Army, the Luojia River Plain is too calm, whether it is through some baptism of war, and always live in the gentle township, the people here will never experience the hardships and dangers of war!
"Uncle, hand over the orientation of this place to Siscori, the enemy's direction and target is not here!" When Higg saw Benjamin, he said directly, "Let's go back to the Silent Forest Base Camp immediately, where we are going to fight hard!" ”
"Silent Forest?" Benjamin asked, puzzled, "What danger would be there?" We have tens of thousands of troops stationed, most of them jungle warriors who are familiar with the methods of forest warfare, haven't the Allad coalition army suffered enough in the Pamela Mountains to dare to fight the idea of the Silent Forest? ”
"There's no time to think!" Higg said, "Give the three thousand marksmen to Siscori, all the elven archers and battle dwarves, and return to the Silent Forest with us!" ”
"How can an army of more than 2,000 people return?" Benjamin asked suspiciously, "Now that the Arad coalition army outside the Roga River Plain, it is impossible for us to pretend to be the envoys of the Forest Country as we did when we came, and more than 2,000 people want to sneak back to the Silent Forest without knowing it?" ”
Higg turned to look at Delonso and said, "Old man? ”
Delonso said angrily, "I'm not here to be a coolie for you! Besides, my Dafa can transport up to a thousand people back to the city! ”
Xige smiled, and then said: "Plus my Dafa of returning to the city can transport five hundred people, a total of fifteen hundred people, plus the bonus of the Earth Spirit Bead, it's almost the same!" ”
Delongso continued to say angrily, "Hmph, I can't use my magic to support your war!" ”
Lan Xian'er smiled and said, "Master Delongso, Higg and I have always had a question I want to ask!" ”
Delongso shook his head and said, "The two of you always join forces to fool me, an old man, every time my old man suffers, I can't listen to you this time!" ”
Higg immediately retreated, leaving only himself, Blue Fairy, Benjamin, and Delonso, very mysterious.
After Lan Xian'er introduced the cause of Dalgrass's death to Delongso and raised her concerns, Delongso's face immediately changed drastically, and he said in a lost voice: "What witch clan, what Gu worm?" It's soul curse, dark magic! How is this possible, though? ”
"Dark magic?" Higg, Blue Fairy, and Benjamin also exclaimed.
Dark magic is the talk of the Middle-earth magical world, and no one has dared to mention this magical skill since the undead were sealed underground thousands of years ago. The dark magic of the undead has brought terrible disasters to the magical world of Middle-earth, and the world is almost reluctant to mention it again. And now that dark magic has reappeared, how can it not be terrifying?
"Soul curse? What kind of magic skill is this? Higg asked, surprised.
Delongso shook his head and said, "Although I claim to be the first person in the wizarding world, I have never been exposed to this kind of magic skill, but from some sporadic records of historical materials, I deduced the power of this magic skill!" Soul curse spell is to use the weak-willed as the target of spelling, and the soul curse is imposed, the soul is imprisoned, and must act according to the will of the magician, otherwise, the cursed soul will eat the master, and the way to die is very strange! I'm not sure if Douglas is soul-cursed, but judging by what you've described, there isn't a magical skill in Middle-earth that can make a person die without a trace! ”
Benjamin asked, "So someone from the allied Arad magicians can cast a soul curse?" ”
Delonso shook his head and said, "Not necessarily! Soul Curse is just one of many skills in the Dark Magic series, the entire dark magic is in the hands of the undead, and no one else in Middle-earth has ever been able to cast this magical skill! ”
Higg asked in surprise, "Undead?" ”
"The undead are a special being independent of other races!" Delongso said, "Middle-earth is actually divided into nine major forces, the Terrans of the Alasia Empire, the Titans of the Alchemy Country, the Dragons of Shenlong Island, the Elves of the Forest Country, the Barbarians of the Barbarian Country, the Water Tribes of the Mizusawa Country, the Elemental Clans of the Rainbow Island, and the Abyss Clans or the Hell Clans that do not often participate in power battles!" And the most terrifying existence is the undead race, whose existence has always been the shadow of the whole world! More than a thousand years ago, the major forces permanently sealed the undead clan underground, and the Abyss clan was responsible for guarding it, so that there was more than a thousand years of peace in Middle-earth! Although the undead are sealed, their shadow of death has always been a threat to this world! It's a pity that not long after the undead were sealed, Middle-earth was a few major racial forces began to fight each other and became mortal enemies of each other, and the magical power of Middle-earth began to slowly decline, and gradually, people forgot about the dangerous existence of the shadow of death! ”
Higg and the others were almost shocked, and Benjamin then asked, "Master, do you mean that the appearance of the Soul Curse may be a prelude to the return of the undead?" Since it has been sealed, and there are people from the Abyss Clan guarding it, if the Undead Clan is alive, then it is impossible to have no news at all! ”
"If someone in Arad's army can use dark magic skills, then this matter is really troublesome!" Delongso said, "This is not just a matter of the Alasia Civil War, maybe it is related to the fate of the entire wizarding world, and I will cooperate with the World Magic Guild to conduct a secret investigation." ”
"What else can we do about this?" Higg asked cautiously.
Delonso said: "Regarding this matter, I hope that you will keep it a secret and not reveal a word to anyone, otherwise, it will cause panic in the world and alert the enemy!" You go on doing what you have to do as if nothing had happened, and you must tell me immediately if anything happens about it! ”
Benjamin asked, puzzled, "Is it really that serious?" ”
Delonso said worriedly, "It's about the survival of the entire Middle-earth world, do you think it's serious?" ”
Higg, Blue Fairy, and Benjamin gasped and stared at Delonso dumbfounded, they had never seen the only magician in Middle-earth so nervous and worried, and it was conceivable that things might be much more serious than they thought.
"Higg Kid, Blue Fairy, Benjamin!" "If the undead are unavoidable, I want you to take your responsibility!" ”
"What? How to bear it? A few people asked worriedly.
"Be strong, make yourself strong quickly!" Delonso said, "The appearance of the undead may be a huge conspiracy, and it is difficult to say who is in charge of this matter!" At present, since only a few of us know, and I only have a few of you who can be trusted, then I hope that you will strengthen yourself before the shadow of death appears, and then you can take on the responsibility of this world accordingly, and I believe that you can do it! ”
Higg smiled bitterly: "The master himself is far away from strife, but he keeps us stronger, does the master himself want to escape this responsibility?" ”
Delonso said angrily: "At this time and that time, if this world is invaded by the shadow of death, I Delonso will definitely not be afraid, but I still have some things to do, and you also have your things to do, but please don't forget the threat of the shadow of death like the world!" ”
Higg stuck out his tongue and asked awkwardly, "What exactly should we do to be strong quickly?" ”
"It's your business, and it's your responsibility!" You guys have been doing a great job, and I'm not as good as you guys in this regard, so don't ask me about this! ”
After a pause, Delongso continued: "I'll help you send the army to the Silent Forest, and then go back to Fuxing City, gather the Great Wizards from all over the world, and discuss this matter secretly!" ”
