Chapter 173: Dark Lair
The two sides discussed this for a long time, and finally, they finally determined their respective responsibilities, obligations and rights, and then asked Gu Feicang to attack the Spinning Spider Girl in the dark lair on behalf of the army, while Princess Celestia and William sat in St. Yorktown, issued edicts, built towns, and so on.
Therefore, the next day, Gu Feicang set off with his team, and this time, the number of troops led by Gu Feicang was the largest he had ever led.
Among them, there are nearly 400 halberd troops, 200 crossbow archers, 50 royal griffins, 30 crusaders, and eight sacrifices, in addition, there are 300 fire crow troops, 3,000 horned ox troops, the total number has reached 4,000 people, and the comprehensive combat effectiveness has reached an average level of three to four levels, if you fight head-on, it is enough to compete with hundreds of thousands of undead, not to mention, there is also a magister-level Gu Feicang among them.
What made Gu Feicang a little pity was that the great mage next to the eldest princess Sophia would not come with him, otherwise, with him alone, he would basically be able to withstand so many of his own people.
But think about it, that archmage is almost one of the strongest hole cards under Princess Sophia's hand, and it is naturally impossible to run around the world with her.
Speaking of hole cards, this time, in order to deal with the Spinning Spider Girl, Gu Feicang also prepared a hole card, looking at the things in his hand, Gu Feicang showed a satisfied smile, with this thing, if you want to deal with the Spinning Spider Girl, you will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort.
Speaking of which, the dark lair is really close to the location of St. York's Town, with a force of as many as four thousand people, Gu Feicang hurried for two days, and came to the periphery of the dark lair, which is a place shrouded in a dark sky, surrounded by a rich dark power, and in the dark land, it is not possible to see scattered undead wandering around.
This was originally a small mountain peak on the edge of the Endless Mountain Range, but I don't know when a huge cave appeared, full of dark power, and it was because of this that the Spider Girl came here.
Looking at the rich dark power around him, Gu Feicang waved his hand, and the team of four thousand people stopped instantly, and then, I saw Gu Feicang pick up the wand in his hand and start chanting incantations, which is similar to the wand of the legendary realm necromancer from the land of eternal night, which often has an excellent effect when casting dark magic.
I saw that with Gu Feicang's chanting, a wave of dark power surrounded the wand, and gradually, as Gu Feicang's chanting became longer and longer, and the tune became more and more weird, finally, I saw the wand in his hand wave heavily, and I saw an invisible wave echoing, covering the team of more than 4,000 people.
On the bodies of more than 4,000 people, suddenly, a burst of dark power flashed, as if casting a shadow on the body, and the body suddenly lost the breath of life, like a dead wood and boulder in the jungle, the darkness covered the magic, and the breath of life on everyone's body.
Applying magic to more than 4,000 people, even Gu Feicang felt a little strained, and there was no thin bead of sweat oozing out of his head, but the effect was also obvious, with the blessing of this magic, the undead who were originally wandering around and attracted by the breath of life suddenly became at a loss like headless flies.
Of course, this method can only fool low-level undead such as skeletons and zombies, and after reaching level three, the undead will give birth to shallow wisdom, which can only weaken their perception, and it is impossible to hide it.
However, the undead above the third level are a minority, and they are basically concentrated in the center of the dark lair, so for the undead on the periphery, such magic is enough.
Seeing that the undead were like headless flies, wandering at will, Gu Feicang immediately waved his hand, "Kill!"
With Gu Feicang's order, one team after another took action, only to see four hundred pikemen rushing out, spears like dragons, a group of twenty people, divided into twenty groups, forming a battle formation, the spear in his hand was like a meat grinder, rushing into the white bones, every time he charged, countless skeleton soldiers fell to the ground, turned into flying ashes, these undead who had no wisdom at all, they didn't know until they died, why the stones and dead wood around them would attack them, and there was so much attack power.
At the same time, the rain of arrows of the crossbow archers also spread, unlike the halberdiers who specialize in skeleton soldiers, the crossbow arrows of the crossbow archers are aimed at the zombies covered with carrion, and after several waves of arrow rain fall, the bodies of the zombies are full of sharp arrows.
The rest, such as the Royal Griffin, the Crusaders, the Sacrifices, the Horned Ox Troop and the Fire Raven Troop, regardless of whether they are zombies or skeleton soldiers, as long as they are undead, they will face their blows, and in this way, along the way, the troops not only march towards the center of the dark lair, but also continue to destroy the undead, because the breath is completely covered, they have killed more than 30,000 undead along the way, and they have not been discovered.
Among them, there will not be a few high-level undead, such as ghosts and vampires, but in front of such a huge team, they didn't even have a chance to react, they were covered by all kinds of attacks, and they were directly bombarded into slag.
In this way, all the way to the clearing, the group finally came to the true location of the dark lair, in the middle of the mountain, the huge dark cave, like a desolate beast with a bloody mouth open in the dark, opened its big mouth, waiting for people to walk in.
At this time, the undead in the outside world have basically been eliminated, for this result, Gu Feicang is very satisfied, although when he just used the dark magic, the consumption was very large, but in the same way, such consumption in exchange for such a result is still very cost-effective, if the same magic power is used to attack these undead, I am afraid that it can only destroy thousands of undead, and the powerful magic fluctuations will also attract the attention of the Spinning Spider Girl.
However, after applying the masking magic, not only did it not attract attention, but because the undead could not feel the presence of the troops, they were defenseless when they were slaughtered, and they would not fight back, and they almost killed tens of thousands of undead without a single soldier.
But it's a pity that such a good thing can be regarded as coming to an end at this time, after all, the Spinning Spider Girl is not a fool, outside the dark lair, a large number of undead disappear may not be felt by her, but once she enters the lair, it is impossible to hide from her eyes, the battle has just begun.
