On 8 May, the build-up of Tasman troops was almost complete. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 InfoUndead soldiers gathered from various locations across the country have been led by a lord to camp near the royal city. More than 10,000 undead troops were displayed outside the city walls, but far less than the noise of the human forces before they prepared for battle. If you look at the city walls, the only difference you can feel is the extra rows of tents and the occasional crowd of people.

The undead who don't need food are not "perpetual motion machines", and although the entire undead army does not have a baggage force to transport food, each undead needs to absorb Tasman's unique "Necro Aura" to maintain their own energy.

The "Necromantic Aura" near the royal city is extremely strong, but once out of the Gondola Mountains, these undead will also face the problem of energy consumption - because of this matter, the Council of the Undead has been debating for a long time.

After all, since the undead appeared in the Gondola Mountains, they have not walked out of this area where the "necromantic aura" is strong for more than 700 years. The undead who are out on a mission can be nourished by carrying shards that have condensed into hedrons, but a large-scale march is simply not such a luxury. Even though Augustine had already proposed a solution to supply a large area with a magic circle, the council still discussed it endlessly.

After all, this is also a kind of "logistics", and every decision has to touch the cheese of countless nobles.

Fortunately, the situation in the parliament has finally become clear in the past few days, and the constant pressure exerted by Augustine has brought the discussion to an end, and the mission objectives of the second batch of conscription and the transformation of the dead have been determined, which also indicates that the war is about to enter a new phase.

However, no matter what the upper echelons decided, Lord Pochi, as a "shepherd", was now distressed by the goals of these missions.

You must know that he has just issued a series of indicators to the steward of his territory, and it is good that these tasks beyond previous years can be completed, but now it is even worse... He's afraid he'll have to spend most of his savings over the years to fill the hole.

There is no lord who is not greedy for money, and although he is reluctant, Pochi is not stupid. If the task given by Augustine the Great is not completed, the surname of this territory may be changed next year...

He was well aware that he was nothing more than a puppet of the Undead Empire, so he never had the idea of "setting up a portal on his own" or "getting out of control".

"I still can't hide when it's time to bleed..."

The city of Tagni is a small town that does not even have walls. But for a baron like Lord Pochi, it was prosperous enough. At this time, the house he was in was dry and comfortable with a fire, much more comfortable than the supermarket house where the commoners lived.

Pochi has been a little troubled these days, and now he just wants to relax and relax, but as soon as he gets up, he hears a faint bell outside the house.

The town's bell is only ringed on major festivals or alarms, and Pochi was a little stunned for a moment, and was about to go outside the house to take a look, but saw the butler rush into the house with a frightened face.

"Master, there are, there are enemies outside..."

"Enemy?

Pochi frowned, he didn't have a war, the friction between the nobles sometimes had to be solved by fighting a few battles, but at the important moment when Emperor Augustine was preparing to send troops, who would not be so long-sighted to jump out and stir up trouble?

"What's the panic, go and inform Borami and Knight Houghton so that they can bring someone to solve the problem immediately!"

There are two powerful knights in Baron Pochi's manor, and there are nearly 100 private soldiers, so he is not afraid of any so-called attacks at this time.

"But... Borami and Knight Houghton have just been found dead in their bedrooms!"

"What did you say!?"

Pochi couldn't calm down for a moment, and grabbed the butler: "What the hell is going on!

"Sir, I don't know what's going on, just now there was a big commotion outside the town, saying that an army of thousands of people was attacking, so I wanted to go and quickly inform the two knights to get ready, but the servant found that they were all killed in their bedrooms..."

"Dead?"

Pochi immediately realized that this was a premeditated attack, he immediately picked up his sword, asked the butler to gather the remaining private soldiers together, and rode on his war horse under the protection of more than fifty soldiers who had come over temporarily, and went to ask the butler to inform the necromancer who was guarding the place, but before he left the manor, Baron Pochi saw the crowd rushing from all directions...

"Why... There are so many people?"

There were tens of thousands of people under his rule, but these people were scattered in various villages, and it was impossible for them to get together on weekdays. Now the crowd in front of him was more than two thousand, and the small manor was surrounded by a sturdy knot, and even most of the farm tools in the hands of these people, Lord Pochi deeply felt a kind of despair.

"Traitor!

"The butcher who colluded with the undead!"

"Shame on humanity!"

The shouting slogans from the crowd made Baron Pochi's face change. Thinking of the information from the surrounding stewards in recent days, there seemed to be a collective delay, and he suddenly realized that there might be a collective rebellion in the territory under his rule...

But at this time, he did not despair, but immediately ordered his private soldiers to set up a formation, and asked more than a dozen guards on horseback to cover him, ready to break out.

However, before the breakout could begin, seven or eight gray-and-white "skeleton soldiers" staggered out of the manor, and they rushed straight towards the approaching farmers, and were immediately cut to the ground without any suspense.

"See? This is evidence of his collusion with the undead!"

"Destroy the traitors!

"Kill! kill all traitors!"

These sudden appearance of skeletons became the fuse for the start of the battle, and Pochi knew that he was probably being calculated, because the necromancer who guarded the territory would never do such a stupid thing - but for now he could only start to break through, but not long after rushing into the crowd, his horse tripped over a bone spur that appeared out of nowhere, so Pochi fell to the ground and was immediately captured.

Until this time, the necromancer who was supposed to guard this place did not appear... Pochi understood that the other party was afraid that the situation was difficult to reverse and gave up on himself.

He looked at the excited crowd in front of him, and all his words turned into a sigh:

"Finally... It's going to change. ”

The lord was rudely tied up, and after falling off his horse, he broke several ribs, but no one in the crowd around him cared about the lord's feelings, and even a few slaps as he was pushed to move.

"The pigs who exploited us!"

"Vampires!"

The group of civilians had apparently lost their fear of the lord's authority, and the constant shouting of slogans had convinced them of the fact that the lord was a traitor, and their leader, Kurka, who had been the leader of Orion, had now shed his rudimentary leather armor and put on a shining silver metal armor surrounded by the crowd.

Poki could recognize it as a set of Mithril Light Armor from his collection, and it was clear that the elected civilian had already been recognized as a leader by everyone since today, and Pochi... It became a stepping stone for him to ascend to the top.

"Stupid... You don't know who you're fighting against! You're all going to be doomed and become fertilizer in the land!"

Eventually, Pochi, who was tied into a rice dumpling, met Kurka on the balcony on the second floor of the manor, and he endured the severe pain on his body and cursed this sentence. But Kurka, who was waiting for thousands of people, did not choose to respond to his words, but shouted to the crowd looking up below: "Remember this day! From today on, we will be the only free people in this land!"

"Long live freedom!"

The earth-shattering shouts sounded, and Pochi understood that these people may not really be for the so-called "freedom", but more because of the increasingly severe oppression of his lord, but with the few skeleton soldiers who rushed over just now, these people had to believe the so-called "facts".

Poki knew there must be a necromancer behind this, but... Will these people really succeed?

The sword slashed horizontally, so that the baron would never have a chance to know the answer.

"The rain is getting heavier. ”

Akasha tugged at the poncho on her body and sighed with emotion.

"Be careful not to let the rain get wet on your clothes, the temperature is low at night, and hypothermia can be a big problem. Roddy reached out to help her tie the belt, but then said to himself, "Actually, it's better to rain a little harder..."

"To be honest, I'm afraid that mushrooms will grow on my body when I live in this environment every day, how can these people stand it. ”

Merinthra walked freely in the rain, the raindrops separated by an invisible barrier that could not even get her hair wet.

"They're very dry in winter, and you're going to miss the weather again. Don't talk about this, you're almost there. ”

Roddy's gaze swept over the "map bar" in front of him, after the "demon subspecies" escaped last night, the team followed the traces to find it today, Merinthera confirmed the direction according to the magic mark she left behind, and when she got close to the target, Roddy's "Tracking Technique: Demon" immediately took effect.

He saw a dense patch of markings on the map, roughly counting more than a hundred.

However, this mark relies on color to distinguish the opponent's strength, and under Roddy's current strength, this "demon subspecies" is basically gray or white - which means that they pose no threat to Roddy at all.

"Wait a minute, everyone is cautious, there may be other groups targeted, so we should first try to hide our movements. Roddy turned his head and explained the battle plan, "The cavalry team should pay attention to outflanking, the infantry does not need to form a formation, just rush as fast as possible." Akasha, get your mages to start hiding the team as best they can... Remember, our goal is not to kill, but to take control of the situation as quickly as possible. ”

Roddy turned to Pyrrhine and said, "If you can, try to make sure that you don't die." ”

He had a hunch in his heart that the significance of these guys in Tasman was far more important than that of the "lambs".

"Don't worry. ”

Merinthera snapped her fingers in response, her face relaxed.

"Okay, each in place. ”

Roddy didn't talk nonsense either, waving his hand to take action.

Akasha on the side immediately asked the ten necromancers accompanying him to start casting spells through mental commands, and one after another enchantments quickly unfolded, the rain was isolated, the air was dry, and the surrounding sounds were much lowered, and the barbarian soldiers began to arrange their armor and weapons in an orderly manner.

Everything went very smoothly, just...

Akasha frowned slightly and took a deep breath.

Ever since she entered Tasman, she had always felt a special aura in her breath, and now it seemed to be becoming more and more pronounced - but she couldn't describe what it was.

Turning her head to look at the high elf mages who followed, Akasha always felt that their bodies were much more flexible after they came to Tasman, and the female mage who always followed her seemed to have more energy in her eyes.

What is the reason for this?

She couldn't figure it out for a moment. (To be continued.) )
