The lock dragon pass must be guarded, and must not be lost.

Hu Yong thought about it for a moment, he hated that he had developed a sense of fear in the previous time, and even thought of retreating......

"Our soldiers are not waste! Their blood cannot be shed in vain! Sooner or later, this account will have to be settled with the odious white dwarf. He gritted his teeth and quickly regained the majesty and calmness of the supreme military commander: "Give the order to go down, lock the gate, reinforce it from the inside, and strictly prohibit anyone from going out to fight without my permission." Sentry posts can try to shoot with bows and arrows and heavy ballistas, but don't waste arrows. In addition, the vigilance was strengthened, and the patrol team increased the manpower to strictly prevent those whites from taking advantage of the chaos to sneak attack. ”

Hu Yongxian is well aware that these measures will not solve the problem at the root.

Hand-to-hand combat is the strong point of the northern barbarians. The fighters who were sent out outside the gate before were all elites.

Thousands of people can't beat two...... This kind of thing is going to be a joke anyway.

However, this is the reality.

Everyone saw this scene when the dragon was closed.

Even a knife and axe can't kill them, so is an ordinary bow and arrow shot useful?

The answer, of course, is no.

But as the supreme commander of Suolong Pass, Hu Yongxian must add this ineffective sentence to the order———— the confidence of the warrior comes from the weapon, if even the weapon in his hand can't kill the enemy on the opposite side, there is no longer the so-called morale.

They are youkai, they are ghosts, they are two monsters that cannot be killed and will increase dramatically through the dead, multiplying rapidly.

"Send a messenger to inform the kings of the tribes of what is happening here. Tell them that no matter what kind of disputes there are between the tribes now, everyone must put aside their conflicts and cooperate sincerely. The Lock Dragon Pass needs support, and it's the largest support ever. ”

Hu Yong spoke these words loudly first, and you can hear a clear sense of anxiety in them.

"Go ahead, do it now!" Hu Yong shouted first.

The adjutant stood with his feet together in salute and turned to leave. He ran fast and didn't hesitate for a second.

Hu Yong turned around first, his anxious gaze over the city wall, and stared at the battlefield that exuded intense blood from afar.

All the barbarian warriors turned into monsters. They are crowded and leaning on each other, as if this is the only way to keep their balance. There were no corpses left on the battlefield to devour, and they didn't waste even a few resources. In addition to the scattered minced meat, there is also blood that seeps into the dirt. Many monsters lay on the ground, opening their huge mouths full of sharp teeth and sharp teeth distributed on the surface of their bodies, and gnawing on the soil where the blood penetrated the most, as if it were not mud and gravel, but fat fresh meat.

Their bodies apparently had a special filtering effect, and the blood-red sand was divided in their mouths, and after more than ten minutes, the terrifying jaws opened again, spitting out clumps of gray-white sand and mud stuck to bodily fluids.

The blood from the Death Warriors has been absorbed and becomes a part of their bodies.

Large areas of the battlefield are fading away, and their appetite for food is so frenzied. In order to fight for the little blood left, there will also be disputes between them, and the tentacles will collide with each other, biting each other in an attempt to cause harm. However, this will only make the rate of integration with each other higher, especially once the tentacles are entangled, it is difficult to break free.

Hu Yong first saw with his own eyes that the two monsters could not be separated due to the fight, and finally had to close and devour each other in a terrifying way, and finally formed a large biochemical body that was larger and twice as large as before.

By "double" we mean the flesh that makes it up.

Shi Zhenghao walked a few steps quickly, came to Hu Yongxian's side, and whispered urgently in his ear, his tone was terrified: "...... Did you see that? They must not be allowed in, no! ”

Hu Yongxian could feel the hot breath coming out of the other party's mouth.

The monsters outside the city seem to be in a state of recuperation. They made no further moves and did not show offensive intent. Oblivious to the weapons and armor left behind by the barbarian warriors, they just stayed where they were and crawled back and forth. From a distance, it looks like a large group of dark red alien insects, confined in a fixed range, doing incomprehensible wriggling.

Even if Shi Zhenghao doesn't say it, Hu Yongxian has the same opinion. After a moment of silence, he let out an equally slight voice that could not be heard by a third person: "You want to summon a Patronus?" ”

Shi Zhenghao looked at him like this: "Do you have a better way?" ”

"Let's go!" Hu Yongxian did not hesitate, he made up his mind: "Our warriors will not be afraid of white people. But those things are clearly not. They are monsters, devils who crawled out of hell. Only the power of the gods can work on them...... Come on! Let's pray to the patron saint. It will bless us, forever. ”

……

The sun had already passed the very top of the sky and was beginning to set towards the west.

The battlefield was not a place to talk, and Bishop Somson invited the Duke of Calis to his tent for dinner.

Lamb stew with chickpeas, pre-marinated and specially tied barbecue, fresh lamb broth, traditional cheese with fresh egg sauce, southern-style pies, roasted pheasant, ham garnished with cheese, jam with six different flavors, golden toast with steaming heat...... Just when Calis thought all the dishes were ready, the waiter, dressed in a number robe, brought a large silver platter containing a fat pickled chicken. This should be the chef's specialty, and he deliberately left the back kitchen to supervise the whole process of serving the food. When the plate was laid out in the middle of the table, the chubby chef smiled and sliced open the belly of the roasted marinade with a silver knife, from which dozens of quail eggs were rolled out after being cooked and peeled off, seasoned with concentrated chicken broth, and cooled to carve a beautiful pattern on the surface.

Bishop Somson was a strong, middle-aged man. He wasn't as fat and bloated as the usual mid- and high-ranking clergy, but more like a professional bodybuilding instructor, or a knight.

"Praise be to the Holy Lord!" He smiled and motioned for his attendant to pour wine into Calis's goblet. The Duke paid special attention to the label on the bottle and found that it was a fine wine from the Southern Lakes region, known for its quality and price.

"War and enjoyment can go hand in hand. My friend, you should understand, and understand this. The red-robed bishop rolled up the sleeves of his robe, cut off a large piece of roast meat with a knife and put it on his plate, and smiled at the duke.

"You are a man of great taste in terms of judgment and enjoyment. What's more important is that you are very familiar with all this, unlike those aristocrats who only pay lip service but never have actual experience. Calis knew that flattery was needed at times like these. Anyway, the other party likes to listen, and he has nothing to lose.

The smile on Bishop Somsen's face grew thicker: "Your vision is very good, no wonder Your Majesty has expectations for you and your family, and has always said that you are the most devout believer among the nobles. ”

Calis knew that the "Majesty" to which the bishop was referring was the current Pope Maximilian. He hurriedly stood up, raised his hand and drew a rice frame on his chest: "Praise the Holy Lord." ”

Bishop Somson watched him sit down and continued to smile, "You must be confused by today's events? ”

Despite the delicacies in front of him, Calis had no appetite at all. He suppressed the impatience in his heart, tried to make his expression appear as calm as possible, and said cautiously, "I have been to the underground of Gabriel. His Majesty told me that its name was Six. ”

Bishop Somson swallowed the food in his mouth, took a sip of red wine, and felt the various changes on the tip of his tongue due to the stimulation of the wine, while he carefully looked at the Duke sitting opposite, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes slowly piled up in a symmetrical fan.

"Calis, you are the only nobleman who knows the name 'Six' and the only nobleman who has ever been to the underground of Gabriel. The strong bishop's arms were full of muscles, and he pinched the goblet with his fingers, shaking the red wine back and forth in it. Doing so allows the wine to come into better contact with the air, and is also a way to control the mood and rhythm of the conversation: "The only one...... Even your king does not have such an honor, and you should be honored for it. ”

A smile tugged out of the duke's face. Despite the embarrassment in his heart, Calis did not show the slightest displeasure on his face. He knew that the Holy See was close to his family, and that it was because of the relationship of interests that had arisen since the time of his ancestors. Controlling a kingdom by co-opting nobles is highly operable. As for what Bishop Somson just said, "the only nobleman who has ever been to the underground of Gabriel...... Gratitude and flattery should indeed be shown for this.

But it's just superficial, don't take it seriously. With so many nobles in the Five Kingdoms, the Holy See has been working tirelessly to cultivate agents. From popes to cardinals, they never choose a single target. After all, multiple choices are more successful, and single choices will only make the road narrow, or even a dead end.

Bishop Somson watched the expression change on the Duke's face: "You must want to ask: What exactly is Six?" ”

Calis nodded earnestly: "I'm curious. I admit I was terrified. They behave beyond the common sense I can understand. ”

The burly bishop took another sip of red wine and said slowly, "You should have seen Joseph." We have a total of two sixes. ”

"Yes, I heard him say that." The duke did not deny it.

"The first Six has been around for a long time." Bishop Somson casually took a piece of soft cheese from the plate in front of him and put it in his mouth to savor it: "It's not complete, it's flawed to a certain extent. ”

Calis thought for a moment, raised his right arm, lightly tapped his forehead with his index finger, combined with the scene he had seen on the battlefield before, and asked uncertainly: "They don't seem to be very smart?" ”

"They don't have intelligence, they don't have the ability to think for themselves." Bishop Somson corrected the mistake in his words: "This is true of both Sixes, including the Six, which may continue to be developed in the future, and these are insurmountable shortcomings. ”

Once again, Calis was shocked: "They look like us, if not identical. ”

"That doesn't mean they're really human." "The level of intelligence of the number six is limited to eight months, or about one year old, for a normal person," the bishop admitted. This is a conclusion that took us a long time to come to. You can also see that they can't even walk normally and can't speak. All of their actions need to be guided. ”

Calis felt that he had grasped the crux of the matter, and asked tentatively, "The reason why they were made was to be used in the war against the northern giants?" ”

Bishop Somson nodded solemnly slightly, "We have not been able to overcome the Lock Dragon Pass, so we have been developing special weapons for this since many years ago. Calis, you can understand Six as a subhuman variant, an abnormal monster. But it must be recognized that they are powerful and can minimize our losses. ”

“…… Yes. The Duke's expression was solemn, and he remembered the battle before. They suffered no casualties and annihilated thousands of northern giants. This kind of thing was unimaginable before, it was simply a myth.

"The greatest power of the number six is its ability to replicate itself and reproduce at a high frequency." The bishop was a little drunk, but his logical thinking was clear: "All flesh and blood can become a new part of them." ”

As he spoke, Bishop Somson put down his glass, cut a large piece of smoked and cured chicken from the plate with a knife, inserted it with a fork, put it upside down, shook it in front of Calis's eyes, and smiled, "Like this." ”

The Duke was stunned. He was stunned for five seconds before asking, "...... All...... Flesh and blood? ”

"Yes. This includes all animals you've ever seen or known, as well as humans. The bishop replied in the affirmative.

Calis suddenly felt a little difficult to breathe, he kept licking his lips, and a lot of sand seemed to be poured into his throat: "...... Flesh and blood...... You mean, including us? ”

"Of course!" Bishop Somson was unfazed: "If you are suspicious of this, you can pick out a soldier from your army who must be punished for his mistakes." Throw him to the number six and enjoy the play you want to see. ”

"But when I was in Gabriel before, Six had no intention of attacking the others." Calis asked eagerly: "And today the battle has just begun, and the two sixs were brought up from behind the battle formation by our men. They were quiet and unusual. ”

Bishop Somson opened his mouth and smiled: "Dear Calis, we made the Six, why did it attack us in turn?" What's the use of making them if they can't even do this level of control? ”

“…… So that's it! The duke suddenly realized, and then asked: "In other words, the target of No. 6 is only the northern giant?" ”

"Nope! If you think so, you're wrong. The bishop replied in the negative: "As I said before, they attack all animals, all people. ”
