62. The First Battle of the Dead and the Windfall
Shiraishi Village.
The village is famous for producing a stone as white as jade, and a large number of wealthy merchants and nobles come here every day to buy this stone, so it is very rich and the people live happily, and since it is only a small village, there are no nobles and especially wealthy merchants, so the people here are rarely exploited, so it is not an exaggeration to call this place a paradise.
But now the village is in ruins, with mutilated bodies scattered on the streets, a lot of minced meat and stumps hanging from the eaves and trees, and black smoke from some houses.
"Looks like we're late." Han Su said as he looked at the surrounding scene.
"This damn necromancer is so cruel that he doesn't spare even children and women." Leah said, looking at the corpses all over the ground.
"Judging by the situation here, this place must have been attacked for a while." Zhao Xin said.
"Let's search carefully and see if there are any people alive." Han Su said.
"There should be no more people alive." Black Howling Dragon said as he looked at the blank thermal radar screen in his hand. "There is no heat source on the radar, which means that no one is still alive."
"All dead?" Leah asked.
"Probably not." Black Howling Dragon replied, and at this moment, several mini detectors returned to Black Howling Dragon's hands. "Judging from the footage of the probe, there is an obvious suspicion here."
"What's the doubt?" Zhao Xin asked.
"There are too few corpses."
"What do you mean?" Leah asked.
"How many people do you think there should be in this village?"
"Based on the size of the village and the information available, there should be about 1,000 people." Han Su said.
"If a thousand people really died, would there be only such a few corpses?" Black Howling Dragon said. "As far as I can see, there are less than two hundred corpses here, and most of them are warriors, only a small number of old people. The corpses of small children and women. ”
"That is to say... They've all been captured! Leah said.
"Yes!"
"Then why did the necromancer arrest so many people?" Han asked quickly. "If it's to create undead, you don't need so many people, and can't the dead also become undead, why did he catch them alive?"
"To break a seal or summon something." Black Howling Dragon said. "But one thing is for sure, no matter what is summoned or the seal is broken, what the necromancer has to do must require a lot of living sacrifices!"
“.....”
Silence, deathly silence.
Generally speaking, the stronger the seal, the more troublesome it is to break the seal, the more it will pay, and the stronger the people will be, and according to the several villages that were attacked, at least nearly 5,000 people were captured, which is a huge number, which shows the strength of the people imprisoned by this seal.
"There's one more problem, though." Black Howling Dragon said suddenly. "Why is there such a big event as more than a dozen villages being attacked and thousands of people disappearing, why hasn't the Yanlong Empire reacted at all?"
At this time, everyone reacted: yes, why did the Yanlong Empire not react at all to such a big thing? Instead, let the mercenaries solve it?
"Could it be that the Yanlong Empire has been busy preparing for war recently, and has no time to take care of it?" Zhao Xin said.
"There is a good saying: If you go outside, you must first settle inside. Besides, they are only preparing for war now, and they should have the ability and energy to take care of this matter, but why didn't anyone come? ”
"Could it be..."
Bang bang bang ....
At this moment, the sound of applause suddenly sounded around him.
"Lu Lu ~ Very good, little guy, it's not easy to know our purpose from some clues." A ghostly voice rang out from behind the Black Howling Dragon, a necromancer.
"Hungry~~~ Where did you come from?" Black Howling Dragon asked.
"Did he just hide from the grass?" Hansu complained.
"Do you still have stealth skills?" Leah then complained.
"Or maybe he just teleported?" Zhao Xin continued to complain.
The necromancer was stunned by the Black Howling Dragon's series of words, hiding from the grass? Invisible? Transmission? What the hell?
The scene fell into embarrassment, and the Black Howling Dragons looked at the necromancer with a look of contempt, as if to say: I don't know this, Tubaozi.
The necromancer knew that he was being ridiculed, but he didn't know why he was being ridiculed, so he couldn't refute it.
"Now that you all know our purpose, we can only ask you to stay here forever." The necromancer said straight to the point... But it's actually about breaking out of the awkward situation.
After a moment of silence ....
"Whew~ What, that's it, I thought I was robbing my eggs."
As soon as Hei Xiaolong finished speaking, Han Su and Zhao Xin couldn't help laughing, Liya looked at Han Su and Zhao Xin laughing, first stunned for a while, and then began to laugh with them, although she didn't know why she was laughing.
The necromancer, on the other hand, was embarrassed again, and it was clear that he was being ridiculed again, but like last time, he didn't know why he was being ridiculed, so he still couldn't refute it.
"Damn, I'm going to kill you!" The necromancer roared.
At this moment, a large number of skeletons crawled out of the ground, holding bone weapons and trying to walk towards the Black Howling Dragon.
"Hey, hey, don't laugh, let's fight." The Black Howling Dragon took out the cross and said.
"Who's in it?" Leah asked suddenly.
At this time, the Black Howling Dragon and the others all looked at Leah.
“.. Well, I've overplayed League of Legends. Leah said embarrassedly.
"You don't count, he's the two." Black Howling Dragon pointed at Zhao Xin and Han Su and said.
"Huh?"
"Don't ask so much, you'll know when the fight starts." The Black Howling Dragon said as he stuck the cross on the ground.
As the cross was planted on the ground, a green circle of light appeared, and the skeleton that stepped into the circle began to smoke.
"My 'Holy Cross' can deal damage to undead creatures within a certain range, weaken their power, and can also give you amplification and healing, so don't worry." Black Howling Dragon said. "Also, three grenades per person, just pull the string and throw it out, don't tell me that you won't use it..."
"Then let's start fighting."
"Crush them!" (×4)
"Zero Spawn - Automatic Machine Gun Turret. (See the one from Borderlands)"
Two machine-gun turrets appeared in front of Black Howling Dragon and began firing at the oncoming skeletons, many of which were hit and shattered into bones on the spot.
Zhao Xin took his silver spear and rushed directly into the pile of skeletons and began to fight.
"Since you're stupid enough to rush in, since you want to die, I'll fulfill you!" The necromancer said.
Immediately, a large amount of black qi emanated from the necromancer's bone staff, wrapping the ordinary skeletons surrounding Zhao Xin one by one, and when the smoke cleared, the skeletons that were originally at the first level had all turned into skeleton guards of at least the second level, and even some of them had become skeleton warriors of the third level.
"Crescent Moon Sweep!"
I saw Zhao Xin clench the body of the gun and turn around, and all the skeletons that had surrounded him were knocked out.
"What?!" The necromancer was surprised.
"Dauntless Charge!"
Immediately, Zhao Xin rushed towards the necromancer like an arrow.
"Damn it!" The necromancer said. "Bone Wall!"
A wall of bones on three sides appeared in front of the necromancer, blocking Zhao Xin's path.
Zhao Xin's fighting spirit quickly broke the two bone walls, but he stopped in front of the third bone wall.
"Damn!" Zhao Xin said.
By this time, the necromancer had turned into a cloud of black smoke and appeared elsewhere.
"I was almost killed by this kid." The necromancer said with a sigh of relief.
"Magic ~ Law ~ Water ~ Crystal...."
At this moment, a chilling sound came from behind the necromancer, who turned around and found a huge ice arrow forming.
"What?!"
"Arrows!"
The giant ice arrow flew towards the necromancer, bringing up patches of blue snowflakes along the way.
Just as the ice arrow was about to hit the necromancer, a cloud of black smoke reappeared, and the necromancer disappeared in place, replaced by a black scarecrow.
"Damn, I had to use the only precious scarecrow, I want you dead!" The necromancer roared.
But....
"Hansu, you're empty again." Zhao Xin said.
"It's not like you didn't get a head." Han Su said.
"You two have even made a big copy of the hero, this is too exaggerated." Leah said.
"That's why I said you don't count, they are, but if you're interested, I can recommend a few heroes to you." Black Howling Dragon said.
"Damn it, how dare you ignore me! I'm going to kill you! The necromancer roared again.
At this moment, several black smoke rose, and several ugly giants appeared in front of the Black Howling Dragon.
Hate!
Abomination, also known as a stitching monster, is made of countless corpses and drawn, has a strong defense, and will also use viruses to reduce the status of enemies, and is a meat shield for the undead, which is quite troublesome.
But....
"Mechanical Assembly - Aerial Machinery: Storm (Change)!"
A large pile of parts appeared in an instant, and then began to assemble rapidly, and soon a one-man robot appeared in the air.
"Shoot it all!"
“Yes! My,master! ”
Immediately, all the launch covers on Storm's body opened, and countless missiles flew out, heading for Abomination.
Boom Boom!
A large amount of smoke and dust stirred up, blocking the Black Howling Dragon's sight, and along with the smoke, there was a lot of minced meat.
Soon after, the smoke cleared, and the abomination received the bento less than a minute after it appeared, turning into a ground of minced flesh, and the necromancer was even more surprised to dislocate his jaw.
"No... No, the abomination should be strong. The necromancer said incredulously.
"It's true that abomination is troublesome and strong, but.... My storm is stronger. Black Howling Dragon said. Do you want to fight? Necromancer? Tell me who is behind your mastermind and plan, and maybe we'll let you go. ”
"I don't need to surrender to a group of imps yet, I'm also a fifth-order peak necromancer."
As he spoke, a cloud of black mist rose again, and gradually turned into magic symbols.
"Show up! My Strongest Servant, the Death Knight! ”
A skeletal horse, dressed in black armor and with a dark blue flame on its head, Death emerges from the shadows.
"A Death Knight of the Sixth Order?" Hansu was surprised.
"It's not over yet! Soul Transfer! ”
Immediately, a blue light floated out of the necromancer's body and into the death knight's body.
"Suffer death! Imps! The Death Knight roared.
"Their souls have been transferred to the Death Knight?" Black Howling Dragon asked.
"It looks like so." Leah replied.
By this time, the Death Knight had already ridden his horse and rushed towards the Black Whistling Dragon, who jumped up and dodged.
The storm opened fire on the Death Knight, but the bullet only sparked at the Death Knight, and was immediately cut in half by a black sword aura of the Death Knight.
"Damn! Instant kill! The Black Howling Dragon said as he looked at the storm of black smoke still emitting from the incision.
"The originally weak mage's body became the body of a powerful death knight, so that his weakness disappeared." Han Su said.
"In other words, the crispy mage has become a tank." Black Howling Dragon complained.
"Death Raid!"
At this time, the Death Knight rushed towards the Black Howling Dragon.
"Break the army and ascend to the dragon!"
The Black Howling Dragon took out his greatsword and charged towards the attacking Death Knight.
Bang!
After a single impact, both the Death Knight and the Black Howling Dragon were bounced out.
"But in some ways, I'm a tank." Black Howling Dragon said.
"Dead Air Bomb!"
At this moment, a large number of black spheres appeared in the air, and then rushed towards the black howling dragon.
"I'll go...."
The Black Howling Dragon quickly dodged, and the stones and trees that had been hit were corroded into a large hole.
"Your sister! O Fatan! "The black howling dragon didn't forget to complain in the escape.
"Death Coil!"
At this time, a black circle appeared under the feet of the Black Howling Dragon, and several black claws stretched out, and the Black Howling Dragon could not dodge in time and was caught.
"Suffered!"
"Die!"
At this time, a large number of dead air bullets attacked the Black Howling Dragon, instantly submerging him.
"Hahahaha! This is what happened to you when you me off, and turned into a pile of bones! The Death Knight said as he looked at the submerged Black Howling Dragon.
"Eight Doors Dunjia - the first door - open the door, open it!"
Immediately, a powerful qi erupted from the Black Howling Dragon's body, shattering all the dead air bombs.
"What?!"
"Chill! You're too slow, Nunu hasn't been chanting for so long. ”
At this time, the Death Knight realized that a layer of ice had formed on the ground at some point, and the cold speed not far away had just finished chanting.
"Extreme cold-first-snowflakes."
Immediately, a violent cold air struck all around, and the skeleton horse of the Death Knight was instantly frozen up, and the Death Knight was also blown out.
"Brontosaurus—Roar!"
At this moment, a dragon composed of thunder and lightning elements attacked the Death Knight in the air.
"Bone Shield!"
Several bony shields immediately appeared, but in front of the Death Knight, they were destroyed by the Thunder Dragon in an instant, and the Death Knight was knocked out again, flying higher.
"Dance of the Vulcan!"
Flames rose from Leah's body, forming a flame giant and sending the Death Knight in the air flying with a single punch.
The Death Knight was beaten by a set of tricks, and suddenly, he found that the Black Howling Dragon had arrived behind him at some point, and he was still holding an iron wire in his hand.
Then the Black Howling Dragon punched the Death Knight in a circle, and the Death Knight began to climb in the air, and then the Black Howling Dragon tied up the Death Knight with wire, and then began to spin at high speed with the Death Knight in his arms, falling to the ground.
"Omotelianhua!"
Rumble!
The ground shattered with the force of the impact, and a large amount of smoke immediately filled the air, and the black whistling dragon jumped out of the smoke.
"Call it a day!" The black whistling dragon patted the dust on his body and said. "But now the clue is broken again."
"Let's go back, we need to rest too," Han Su said. "I also need to sort out my thoughts."
"Then you guys go first, I'll clean up the battlefield."
"Yes."
When they were far away, the Black Howling Dragon turned on the communicator and walked towards the collapsed house.
"Justin, come here, I've got a windfall." The Black Howling Dragon said as he moved away the rubble. "An almost perfect machine king soldier material~"
The gravel was completely removed, and the contents were revealed—a little girl, curled up in it, asleep.
Seeing this little girl, Black Howling Dragon couldn't help but smile.
"This is a huge windfall, hehehehe~~~"
