The next morning, I arrived at my destination as usual, waiting for the volunteers to arrive, before I had thought that the worst-case scenario would be just me and my guards, the dwarves, and the rangers who were supposed to destroy the undead. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But the situation may be better, almost half of the Stratholm army has joined me... Yes, it was somewhat disappointing compared to my perfect plan.

But something is better than nothing, as for those who stay, I don't have many complaints, after all, everyone has everyone's knowledge, and it is very difficult for us people to fight against demons, but only these are in front of us, and the difficulty has to rise a lot.

I didn't continue to be pessimistic, but continued to set off towards the next stronghold. Actually, I'm still thinking about a question, that is, the location of this stronghold is only half a day's journey from here, but why did the enemy turn a blind eye to us, and when we arrived at the destination, I finally knew the answer,

"There's a fierce battle ahead. "The sighted ranger kept us informed as usual, and I saw it after traveling some distance, and the undead stationed here were in a fierce battle with the native spider people. Although their numbers are much smaller than the number of the undead legions, the situation is not a disadvantage, because those guys are better at burrowing and fighting and retreating than them, so the undead are very embarrassed by this.

However, even if they have such an advantage, I don't think that the spider-men have a chance of victory, after all, they are flesh and blood, and they will get tired after a long time, but the undead do not feel like this at all, and they are at a great disadvantage in numbers, it is easy to surround them, and they also have a considerable number of crypt demons to compete with, so I still think that their defeat is only a matter of time.

Looking at the battlefield in front of me, I thought, maybe I can make an alliance with those guys and fight those creatures together, believing that they only need a little bit of intelligence and a big picture. They will accept us to join them in the fight against the undead. But just as I was about to order everyone to help the spider-men, I suddenly thought of Crassus's admonition to me about the cunning creatures.

In this regard, I hesitated for a moment and rethought this judgment.

If I didn't care about these creatures at all when the army was there, I might even wipe them out along with them, but for now, I still needed allies urgently, and after thinking about it, I finally chose a compromise solution, which was to ignore those spider people first, and instead lead the army to directly attack the undead who were not ready for us.

"Everyone attacks the undead. "I took the lead and rushed to the left with the spider-men, and without hesitation, everyone followed my pace to attack the undead positions stationed on the periphery.

In the course of the war, I think everyone can clearly feel that it is not as smooth as it used to be, yes, the numerical disadvantage is fully manifested at this moment, and when we are in close combat, we may have to face two or three undead at the same time. If it weren't for our good military skills, I believe we would soon be drowned in a sea of undead. But in the end, under the light of our gathering of lights, we broke through the siege and finally eliminated the nearest enemy, and then moved on to the next wave of enemies that were more numerous......

During this period, I have to be glad that the predecessors of those undead are just some simple-minded creatures, otherwise our number of soldiers may be wiped out at any time, and as a commander and vanguard, I also have to pay attention to the attrition of the army, because I know that if one person dies when there are few people, it is likely to have a chain effect, resulting in the chaos of the formation and the defeat of the entire army, but fortunately, no one fell under the cover of experienced rangers and griffon dwarves with no natural enemies, and Gianna's spells have improved a lot unconsciously, she led a very small number of mages on the battlefield to somewhat make up for the fact that we had no spell support. In the end, he defeated the last wave of enemies with a small number of sacrifices.

Seeing everyone intact is indeed an encouragement, after all, this gives us a kind of hope, a kind of confidence to win, just like before. Of course, this premise is mostly due to the fact that all the crypt demons were attracted away by those indigenous spider people.

In this regard, I looked back at the undead guys who were still fighting, and I couldn't help but start to be grateful that they dragged down the crypt demons who only accepted the order to destroy the spider-men, yes, if it weren't for them, I believe that this battle might have a lot of sacrifices, so I just looked at it from this perspective, and I also needed to help them, of course, I hope that I won't be bitten back when the time comes.

"We help the spiders, but we have to be just as careful that they will attack us. "I reminded everyone, and after seeing that the soldiers nodded in understanding, I pulled up the horse rope and led everyone to rush over, but when our soldiers wanted to rush into the melee, I once again ordered everyone to stop, and instead set up a real position to prevent anyone from attacking us, and only let the remote provide output.

We are very conservative in this regard, and we must be conservative, after all, there has never been a greater need to save the number of soldiers than now, so I try not to let a single soldier rescue those spider-men, but let the enemy be dealt with remotely. Although this dragged on the war for a long time, I thought it was safest to think of Crassus's suggestion, and the best example of this is in front of me. At the end of the war, a spider-man caught a griffin knight, and I knew it was time for me to show up and talk to them, and I gripped Khadgar's ring again, ready to talk to the guys.

"Hello, my friend, I think your enemies are the undead, not our other beings. "I motioned for everyone to calm down, and then walked over and used the ring to talk to them. And everyone is very puzzled why I can communicate with them so smoothly in my own language, but at this time, no one is stupid enough to question my ability, they are just wary of changes that can happen at any time.

"You don't belong to the land. A high-ranking spider-man also came up to me and looked at me suspiciously, obviously they were puzzled that I could communicate with them, which inevitably made him feel a little interested, but it didn't reflect the current tension between our army.

"Yes, but the undead don't belong to this world... Once we have eliminated them, we will naturally withdraw from your territory. "Actually, I was going to take possession of this continent, but this is the only way things have developed so far, of course, if this can be exchanged for their trust..."Please believe me, after the undead are destroyed, we will naturally leave, and never set foot in your territory." ”

"No one will get out of here alive, neither you nor the undead. ”

"You can't face them alone, and we are the way out when we unite to destroy them. ”

Once again, I pitched them the idea of unity, but it was clearly not very effective for an arrogant people like theirs....

"Just you guys, jokes!"

"Wouldn't you guys be even more self-conscious!" I retorted, and gradually lost patience with these fellows, so I sarcastically mocked them in another way, yes, if not I would at least save the dwarf in front of me.

"You underestimate our strength, we will continue to multiply until the day the undead disappear!"

"But the spirits of the dead are growing day by day, and your range of activities is shrinking day by day, and even your king Anubarak has become an undead. ”

I said again with disdain, apparently I was ready to go to war with them at this time, but at this point we were both stunned by each other's words.

"You are mistaken, our king is still alive. The other spider-man behind him laughed and denied my answer, but was quickly reprimanded by the captain, and looked at me with more vigilance, and I looked at him as well, yes, I really didn't expect their king to be undead, and his confusion was obviously "You actually know the name of our king." ”

It was at this point that I realized that there seemed to be a possibility for us to communicate, for example, I had the impression that Anubrak was a very wise fellow, and if he was really not their king, I believed that he would accept our alliance, at least until the undead scourge was gone, so I changed my ways and tried to find a chance to meet him.

"I was friends with him....to those who had been friends, and he said that he foresaw the future in which he would become an undead, and that the time was about now. I made up an excuse and said, yes, I can't think of any other way than this, I believe that such a risky move is still very deterrent until it is discovered.

"Our King's friend?"

"Otherwise, how could I communicate with you? And I won't come all the way to lead my troops from afar to help you destroy the undead. ”

I continued to make up nonsense, and as soon as this remark came out, all the spider-men looked at each other, and it was clear that these people who didn't see the big picture would not have thought that what I was saying was nonsense. The soldiers and companions behind me were also confused, but they also knew that this was not the time to ask questions, and waited in silence for the situation to unfold.

To be honest, I don't know how they're going to react at this point, maybe they'll let me see their king, or they'll take my word and let our griffon dwarf go. Or maybe they see through my lies and confront us, but now that things have happened, believing that not saying anything will be the last consequence, so it's better to gamble like this, after all, I still don't want to fight against them.

They hesitated for a long time, and I was always on the lookout for anything that might happen, and I finally got a good answer.

"If you are a friend of our king, then come with me to our king. ”

"Of course, if I can bring someone with me. I replied as a matter of course, in fact, I acquiesced that Ronin was with me at this time, because if not, he could help me escape from the Ascension, but I ignored that he was no longer here at this time, but let Gianna be with me, and I was worried that she would risk her life with me...

Yes, it's time for me to hesitate, after all, I said so, then I can only compromise and break with them. "I'm going to see your king, but please let go of my friend who has been caught in your net first. ”

I said so, but to my surprise, they didn't even have such sincerity....

"If you were a friend of our king, we would definitely let him go. ”

I realized that it was dangerous, and that I couldn't go there with them.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh, yes, I should have listened to Crassus's warning, but now is not the time to regret it, for the sake of the griffon dwarf and the mistake I made, I can only fight with them.

"Then what else can we trust!" I said, clenching my weapons, and the soldiers were ready for battle....and just as I had raised my hammer at the beginning of the battle, as I had done before, I felt the earth shake, and a huge figure poured out near me, and judging by its size, it was evident that it was what I meant by "friend". And it's not just him, there's more spider-men coming here for this, and I may have to face another unexpected outcome.
