Chapter 670: The Most Unreliable Alliance
It's still a familiar small building, and it's still an uninvited visitor, but this time the guest made me feel a little impulsive to shout for help.
On the opposite side of the coffee table was a sleepy old man, with a snow-white beard that had been held on the soles of his feet, and his unkempt appearance was slightly similar to that of a homeless man, but the magic under his old body was as deep as the sea.
Sitting across from me, I could feel the endless magic, but outside the room, there was not a trace of waves.
“…… Eternal Night? It's a perfect life form. ”
The old man put down the teacup and slowly looked at the cup in his hand, as if he was very satisfied with the tea in it, but I knew that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at me.
The "Lord of Withered" Sandru, the master of the bone plane, Biesso and the veteran Necron Emperor, the former chief consul of the Tali Republic, and this time, he is also the most prestigious of the undead emperors who came to this plane.
Not long ago, in front of those archmages in the country of mages, he had shown an incredible instantaneous forbidden spell, and only those who knew his field of study knew that it was not a forbidden spell, but just a regular magic with the power of a forbidden spell.
He should now be on the front line of Baier to confront the archmage and the dragon, at this time, he appeared in front of me quietly, I only received a battle report two days ago He is patrolling the front line, it seems that either he has the ability to teleport in a large area, or, he has deceived everyone.
The squinting presbyopia eyes never opened, but the soul eyes saw through everything, and the sound of "perfect life form" probably refers not only to the body, but also to the soul.
And when he looked at me. I'm also trying my best to analyze the existence of the other party.
"The Blighter", "Waterless Dust", "The Bone Spider Emperor". The maturity of each Emperor of the Dead. They all came up on countless corpses, and in the face of such an opponent, I didn't dare to slack off.
“…… What are the old-timers here for? Resurrection? ”
Sandru is also a member of the natural undead, and if he is here for this, it can be fully explained.
But Sandru shook his head, and did not speak, but there was an inexplicable mockery on his smiling expression, as if I had just underestimated him.
"The living belong to the sunshine. The dead return to dust, and I am not one of those juniors who miss the past, how can I be obsessed with life and death, I came to you, but for the Chengruo you mentioned before. ”
Promised? I was stunned, it's not that I didn't admit it, but there were too many messy promises, and the basic promise to the opponent on the battlefield was nonsense to shake the opponent, and when I expressed goodwill to the Republic of Tali, Bai Tiao didn't fight less. When I asked about it, I didn't know which one it was.
But soon. With a turn of his head, if he can make Sandru leave the important things in his hands, the grade is naturally relatively high, so there is only one possibility......
"Land?"
Sandru nodded slowly, undoubtedly confirming my guess, and I was a little surprised.
What I'm proposing is just a plane other than the main plane, for the undead emperors who are committed to the main plane, no matter how you look at it, it should be just an alternative, I expect them to talk to me after being frustrated, and now that the undead army is in full swing, they are starting to find a way out?
I didn't hide my surprise because I also needed an explanation.
“…… You've done a great job, really, so good that we all have a disagreement. ”
I think I need a translator, this old man just likes to say things that don't have a beginning or an end, and then let people guess, guess correctly and take it for granted, guess wrong and look stupid.
"Oh......"
Okay, old man, I'll play with you, let's guess together, I said the interjection with a calm face, and then I shut up, and the room fell into an eerie silence.
"Ahem, Phil, you can help the old man."
It seemed that he couldn't stand the situation of staring too much, and out of his shadow came his subordinate, who was dressed as a middle-aged gentleman...... Mummy?
"Hello Your Majesty of the Eternal Night, my lord has not spoken for too many years, please allow me to express his words."
Haven't spoken for too long? It is indeed understandable, after all, it is enough for the undead who are lower than themselves to give orders directly with their minds, the same level and higher? No, even if you communicate with other undead emperors, I'm afraid you can also send your subordinates directly.
It seems that it's not that I like to play dumb riddles, but that there are too few opportunities to speak, which leads to a regression in speech ability? It's a real luxury, I nodded, motioning for the guest to take it easy.
"What my lord means, you have done so well, we can't believe that the undead can live so harmoniously with the living, it reminds us of the heyday of the republic, all, on top of the attitude towards the living, several undead emperors had disagreements......."
The mummy named Phil was not at all like his kindred, and he was quick to talk, and in his description, I gradually learned about the other party's situation.
There is no end to what I guessed before, for the return, the archons of the Tali Republic have been divided from the beginning, some of the Undead Emperor longed for the rebuilding of the Tali Republic, some just wanted to come to the main plane to harvest their souls and flesh, and some had no intention of moving their nests at all, so they didn't come directly.
And even the Reconstructionists can have completely different attitudes towards the living, so the way they act is completely different......
Let's use an individual as an example, Esso is the backbone of the returnees, but his attitude towards the living is relatively relaxed, hoping to build a new Tali Republic where the living and the dead can reproduce together, and realize the return of civilization, and Sandru the Great, who is also a veteran consul with him, also came from the years spent with the living and the dead, and his political views are similar in this regard, and he is almost a hardcore.
But even the "Heng", who is very close to Esso, is also a hardcore returner, but she is full of hostility to the living, and she originally wanted to return. Wang's not strong, but some time ago, he was bent on revenge, and planned to establish the kingdom of the dead on the main plane, and with his greatly improved individual strength, he vaguely became the leader of the killing faction.
And after entering the main plane, whether to use the undead natural disaster to kill all the way and transform all the living into the dead directly leads to the confrontation of concepts.
"There are only a few people, and there are so many factions and differences. You're working hard...... too."
Phil, who was tied with strips of cloth, couldn't see his expression clearly. Old Sandru showed fatigue. It also seems to be a headache.
"No way, those are all unique Your Majesty......"
I nodded, of course I could understand that I could go beyond the limits of theory and become the Emperor of the Dead, those guys are paranoid, and one of the characteristics of paranoia is self-centeredness and extreme difficulty in compromise.
Moreover, these undead emperors are all supreme beings who rule a plane and a continent alone, plus they are still from the origin of a god who despises the gods. After so many years, it would be strange if it was easy to deal with.
I've made a guess, since they are all from the Dharma Master, the way the undead emperors get along with each other should be similar to the joint mechanism of the Council of Truth, everyone is an authority in their own field, and they are naturally a group of paranoids who don't listen to people, and what makes them act together can only be common interests, don't think about superiors and subordinates, reason or something. No one can convince anyone.
Other powerful existences can also use strength to distinguish between respect and inferiority, and the status of the Dharma Master of the same class has little to do with strength. Who has the strength to be the boss? Isn't that like the savage they despise most!
Moreover, in many cases, the result of the spell battle is not only a force battle but also a wisdom battle, and the luck component is also very important, and the result may be completely different if you change the order of moves.
And even if you use strength to compare yourself, anyone can break through a bottleneck in their own field, and then their strength will skyrocket, and then the results will change, and the ever-changing ranking can only become a joke.
"The most difficult people in the world to deal with are probably the dictators and crazy paranoid scientists, the undead emperors are both, it is already a miracle that they can live in peace, perhaps, the love of compatriots in the past is also very heavy...... But there seems to be a gap to scratch into. ”
Based on the above speculation, the union of the Undead Emperor must be an extremely loose alliance, and all the Undead Emperors are almost equal...... So when I heard that they were actually pushing Bayer in unison, I couldn't believe it.
"Five of me and Heroise join forces to play mahjong? Is it possible to live in harmony? Dream on. ”
My prediction should be that each of them will lead an army, open a plane gate to fight a country alone, and fight their own, which is the most suitable war strategy for them.
"His Majesty Esso and His Majesty Heng are gone, just to allocate the main attack position, your Majesty has been unable to reach an agreement, so, at the suggestion of His Majesty Hypnos, the five Majesty decided to make a joint attempt....... this is the first union, but judging from the results, I am afraid it will also be the last."
It turned out that the spies of the Tali Republic had been hanging out in the Northland all these years, and the way the undead of the Lan Alliance got along with the living made those veteran undead emperors very excited, and they suggested that they should not form a blood feud with the living in the first place, leaving room for reconciliation.
But as soon as the irascible Hypnos started fighting, he lost the undead scourge and snowballed.
He also saw it accurately, knowing that once some things crossed the line, there was no turning back, and those Harmony Undead Emperors saw that things were so helpless, and they were not good men and women, and they would not show mercy to the enemy, so everyone pushed it together.
Then it was cool to push all the way through, but halfway through the push, the team had already begun to split.
The one who thinks it's enough to get a handful, asks not to gnaw on hard bones like Baier, and goes to other weak countries to harvest souls, which represents the Anina Emperor of the Black Plane, her qualifications can only be regarded as average among everyone, and she needs a large number of souls to strengthen herself, in a sense, she is also the only undead emperor who has a realistic desire for war.
The one who heard that the Troll Empire had actually resurrected, and he was angry and wanted to turn his head and fight with the trolls, was the Bone Marshal who had also experienced the era of the Troll Empire.
Like Esso, he came from the Blasphemous Plane, and in a sense, was both Esso's brother and his subordinate...... It is worth mentioning that Sandru also wants to find trouble with the trolls, the veteran Archon of the Republic of Tali, who did not crawl out of the bloody battle between humans and trolls, the blood feud has long been unresolved, and even their obsession with resurrection.
The undead witch from the plane of mist death, the eldest of the cultivators, is not only the youngest from the outside but also from the inside, he can't understand the obsession of those old antiques with trolls, he and Heng have a good relationship, both aim to establish the country of the dead, and his current goal is to fight all the way to the royal capital of Baier.
The Sonoma Emperor of the Curtain Blood Plane is probably the most bizarre one, no one knows what he is thinking, he does not say goodbye on the way, leaving only a clone, and it is precisely because of his solo departure that the subsequent spell war undead emperors suffered a little loss.
And in the end, it is the old man Sandru in front of him, his choice...... He has already arrived in front of me, and his status as a Harmonizer certainly speaks for itself.
"Your Majesty is too individual......"
Although he was still expressionless, I could hear crying in Phil's voice.
Yes, the five people are divided into five factions, and they don't care about their allies at all, and this character is already too strong to evaluate.
Actually, I already feel it, it is estimated that if they come to a few undead emperors, they will be divided into several factions, and the final outcome will not make a difference at all.
"You guys, it's really hard......"
When the subordinates of this group of extremely egoistic bastards are simply miserable, my words are very sincere, and they are full of sympathy and understanding.
"You, you know. He is the only new majesty in modern times.
The mummy's face was full of emotion, as if he saw the dawn of the future.
“…… Do you finally know what we're working on? Do you remember the sulfur mountain back then?"
Heloise's words came from the link of the heart, don't you vomit and die, I'm better than these guys...
Recalling the sulfur mountain city of the past, all kinds of scenes of pitfalls and explosions crossed through my mind, causing trouble to my subordinates? The scene of Diana vomiting blood was remembered again and again, and the more I spoke, the quieter I became, and the more I spoke, the more I had no confidence.
"Ahem, if Ruoheng and Esso are there...... As long as Esso is around, we should still be able to sit down and talk. ”
It seems that he feels a little embarrassed, Sandru's words are full of helplessness, in a sense, this can't all be blamed on the poor coordination of the Undead Emperor, this time the Undead Emperor union is organized by Esso, and now that the organizers are gone, there is no way to make such a fuss.
I finally understood, it turned out that the undead emperors came up and went all out to shoot not decisively, but they also knew in their hearts, and if it dragged on for a long time, this loose alliance would collapse by itself, and while it could still fight, there was a wave of the whole family, and the opponent couldn't stop it, so he won in a daze, and he blocked it.
Now that Baier has just blocked this wave, the five emperors have five thoughts and five actions, and what will happen next, even the god of fate can't see it.
I saw that the silent Sandru in front of me was getting more and more friendly, and it was clear that he was now not representing the League of the Undead Emperors, but himself.
He said that the living and the dead in the Lan League get along well, which undoubtedly shows his attitude.
Perhaps, this is a once-in-a-lifetime breakthrough...... (To be continued.) )
