Chapter 481: The Horn of Attack
Rhodes has always been resolute in doing things, and he can do what he wants. In fact, just as he solemnly announced the alliance agreement to the two dragons of law, Rhodes' army had quietly arrived on the border line and was ready for battle. In fact, as far as Rhodes himself is concerned, he is not willing to start a war in just a few days after he returns. But Rhodes is well aware of the danger of this chaos, it is like a plague with a high lethality rate, highly contagious and no effective control and treatment, and if it cannot be culled in the shortest possible time, the consequences will be unimaginable.
What's worse is that this "plague" is not only "passively" spreading, on the contrary, they will also "actively" attack, and it is very dangerous. To deal with such an enemy, it is necessary to completely wipe it out with absolute, overwhelming force. However, it is a pity that except for a few top combat forces on Rhodes' side, no one else has any "overwhelming" advantage in the face of the undead army of the Night Country.
"Ready? Labis? β
Standing on the high tower, Rhodes asked in a low voice as he gazed at the realm in the distance, shrouded in darkness and eternal night. Hearing his inquiry, Labis, who was standing next to her, nodded hurriedly.
"It's a bit rushed, but it's done, Lord Rhodes. Merely......... Because the construction materials required for the standard equipment of the magic cavalry need to be refined, a considerable amount of time is wasted. Even if we try to speed up as much as we can in the later stages, we will only have time to equip three legions in the end........."
"Three is enough, order the rear to go all out. We can abandon our mounts, even if it's just infantry, and I'm going to see at least five legions replace their magic armor within twenty days. He said. Rhodes looked down at the rows of soldiers beneath his feet, the elite of the Void Lord, most of whom were mercenaries who had been born and died with Rhodes and pioneered the Lands of Chaos. And their soldiers are also from the original Land of Atonement, and have participated in many wars against the undead. They are battle-hardened warriors, but that's not enough.
The most striking. It was the armor of these soldiers, all of whom were uniformly dressed in pitch black. At first glance, the armor that wraps all parts of the body looks like the rounded and smooth magic armor of some kind of oval beetle, but the runes etched on it that are emitting a faint magical aura have already ensured that these armors are definitely not ordinary. And in fact. These armors are far more complex than they seem. Although they weigh nearly a hundred kilograms, the "Light Spirit" runes attached to them ensure that these armors are as light as leather armor. The existence of "Great Force" can make the users of these armors burst out with a strength comparable to that of giants, and combined with the dual protection of "Stone Skin" and "Defense Magic Enchantment", it can ensure that these soldiers can still move forward fearlessly even under the double pressure of arrow rain and magic. But the so-called good horse with a good saddle, these equipment also cost a lot, and it can even be said that the equipment on each soldier is enough to support a heavy cavalry team of about ten people when converted into money! Even with Labis and Marlene present, they couldn't reduce this consumption. After all, let's not talk about how much effort and money it takes to draw high-level magic runes, and there are naturally many magic crystals used to maintain these magics. Plus the ores and metals needed to refine armor. That's almost enough to buy a city.
Of course, this was not done immediately after Rhodes returned. In fact, the dressing of the Void Leader had already begun before Rhodes left the Dragon Soul Continent, and Rhodes was ready to fight against the Night Nation at that time, although he had the blessing of the "Resurrection Aura", but this did not mean that he could rush up with a wooden stick. At that time, the reason why Rhodes created these magic armor was not only to maximize the attack and defense, but also to resist the insidious and cunning methods of the Night Nation. After all, he was well aware of the Night Nation's thoughts, in addition to necromancy, these guys were also very good at plagues and curses, and although these things could not take the lives of soldiers, they were enough to reduce their combat effectiveness. Therefore, Rhodes also needs elite guards who can always dare to fight bayonets and are not afraid of the range infection of the undead to face off against the Night Nation. And now it seems that they should have enough to deal with Chaos.
"What about the installation of the Order Enhancement Enchantment Device?"
"Ongoing, there should be no problem. But Lord Rhodes, since this is only a test product, it is necessary for Miss Marlene and them to provide the output..............."
"It's okay, it's only temporary anyway."
Hearing Labis's somewhat uneasy reminder, Rhodes interrupted her with a wave of his hand. Then he turned around and stroked Labis's hair.
"I'll leave it to you later, no problem."
"Ah............ Be! Lord Rhodes, please leave it to me! β
Feeling Rod's touch, Labis's cheeks flushed slightly, and then she hurriedly reached out to pull up the hood, then took two steps back, and whispered. Seeing Labis's reaction, the corners of Rod's mouth curled slightly, and then he reached out and picked up a magic crystal and threw it into the air, and soon, I saw that the magic crystal emitted a bright and dazzling brilliance, and then suspended in the air. Rhodes, on the other hand, stared at the magic crystal in front of him and coughed softly. Then, he lowered his head and looked at the soldier in front of him.
"Gentlemen, I think you already know that we are about to face an unprecedented war."
Rhodes spoke, his voice not loud, but clearly echoing in the ears of every soldier. Hearing Rod's voice, the soldiers raised their heads one after another, looking at the figure standing on the city wall that did not look strong at all, and even a little emaciated.
"The undead have not given up their assault on us, many of you have fought against them, not long ago, they tried to invade our territory, many were forced to leave their homes under the threat of death, you have seen your homes burned in flames, your loved ones killed, and then transformed into puppets of the necromancers, forced to leave the land where you originally lived. But it is clear that they are not satisfied with this, and moreover, they have not been satisfied. β
Saying this, Rhodes lowered his voice, and hearing his words, the soldiers also lowered their heads, clenched their fists angrily, and their eyes erupted with unprecedented anger. Indeed, as Rhodes said, the soldiers were annoyed by the invasion of the undead over this time, and although they repelled the attacks of the undead again and again, the anger did not subside. They knew what the undead wanted to do, and they had no intention of giving up. If they could, they would like to be able to solve these problems once and for all, but alas, they are only soldiers, not generals.
"And now............... Everything is about to change! β
Saying this, Rod's voice suddenly raised.
"We've had enough of aggression and now, it's time for us to fight back. We will delve into the realm of darkness to destroy the City of Night and destroy the dragons of darkness that have descended into madness! It violated its duty as the Lord of Order and plunged into the abyss of chaos. He is trying to bring Chaos to every corner of this world, and completely destroy this continent. As the people of order, we will put a stop to its folly....................."
Saying this, Rod suddenly fell silent. This made many soldiers below look at each other, and they didn't know what the Void Dragon Majesty was suddenly silent, but just when they were puzzled, Rod's voice sounded again.
"Having said all that, I want to say it's bullshit! Most importantly, we want revenge! We're going to kill these shameless undead! Let those bastards who don't even have brains know that the cemetery is their shelter! A tooth for a tooth, blood for a blood! We want to get it back tenfold for what they did to us! The time is over for the undead to cry and tremble and flee in fear, and now is the time for them to tremble under our iron hooves and beg for mercy, and then die like weeds trampling muddy water! There is only one order, kill when you see the enemy, kill when you see the enemy! Dig those bastards out of their graves and burn their corpses to ashes, leaving not a single one behind! Ready to goββββ!! The target, the country of the night, this time is a counterattack, an invasion! We must take over the land of Eternal Night once and for all, and drive these lackeys who have committed themselves to chaos to the other side of destruction, and let them perish completely!! β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
There was an eerie silence accompanied by Rod's roar, no one spoke, everyone just stood there silently, motionless. Seeing this scene, Labis couldn't help but look at Rhodes with some worry, but just as she was about to say something, cheers and shouts like volcanic eruptions suddenly erupted, rising from the ground and resounding through the sky.
"Your Majesty, the Void Dragon!! Your Majesty, the Void Dragon!! β
"Revenge!! We want revenge!!
"Fuck those bitche-raised undead!! It's time for us to return their interest!! β
The mixed roars and shouts were completely irregular, and the shouts of joy, rage, and excitement merged to form a chaotic cacophony. The soldiers raised their hands in the air, clenched their weapons, and vented their emotions. Facing the scene in front of him, the corners of Rod's mouth turned up slightly, and then he raised his right hand high. With Rod's movements, a dazzling light rose into the sky. Immediately after, the starry sky began to tremble.
The infinite and eternal night began to distort, shattering like a crushed and deformed block of mud, and in the blink of an eye, the darkness at the junction of the Void Realm and the Night Realm was reduced to fragments, and they were swallowed up by the illusory starry sky of Vientiane before they even had time to disappear.
And the next momentβββ warm, dazzling, soft sunlight emerged from the other side of the horizon, shining on this land that had been shrouded in eternal darkness. It's like a stage play, and finally the deep curtain has been opened, and a new performance has begun.
It also represents the beginning of an all-out war. (To be continued......)
