Book 1: Believers of Light Chapter 43: Army of Skeletons
Twelve-year-old Arthur in the mysterious cave had already recovered a little, and ran to the unconscious Heinris's side in three steps and two steps, "Teacher, teacher!" and patted Heinreis on the shoulder a few times, trying to wake him up. It may be that Ogris is too ruthless, and Heinrich does not have a trace of sobriety. But fortunately, Heinris's chest still heavily.
Arthur slowly stood up, his eyes looking angrily at Oglis, who didn't know what he was thinking, "Demon, I want you dead. Although he no longer had a lion's tooth in his hand, Arthur still swung his fist at Oglis. Oglis, who was in place, did not seem to notice Arthur's actions, and still stood there like a stone statue.
Now Arthur has not yet cultivated his fighting spirit, even if he uses the strength to eat, a fist hit the body of the huge hell lord, like a small stone smashed into the body of a dragon, no pain or itching.
And Arthur didn't care if this fist could hurt Ogries, now he just wanted to vent the anger in his heart. The fist slammed into Oglis's thigh like a storm. By the time Arthur was exhausted and out of breath, Ogries still didn't react.
Seeing that his attack did not cause any damage to Ogris, Arthur couldn't help but be a little discouraged. But Ogris's anomaly also caught Arthur's attention, and he regained his breath a little. Arthur circled around Ogris and found that Ogris was really like a statue, silent.
Arthur picked up the lion's fangs, clutched his sword in both hands, and charged at Ogris. Like gold and iron colliding, sparks flew everywhere, and the lion's fangs stabbed Ogris in the abdomen. Unfortunately, such an attack was still like a tickle for Ogris. Strangely enough, though, Ogris still didn't react.
Now Arthur muttered a little, since the mysterious man disappeared, Ogris's state has become what it is now. While it's not clear why this is the case, Arthur doesn't want to know. Now you can leave this Hell Lord alone.
Arthur decided to take the teacher away first, and Heinris's state didn't know how long it would last.
Just as Arthur picked up Heinris's old body, the statue-like Oglis reacted, his body turned like a machine, and his blood-red eyes watched Arthur's movements, and when Arthur felt it, the look in his blood-red eyes was extinguished. Under Arthur's gaze, Ogris's body really began to turn gray, and slowly Ogriss turned into a stone statue standing in place.
Arthur looked at the change in front of him in amazement, unable to believe it. Could it be that the mysterious man took Oglis's soul away when he was leaving? Arthur stepped forward curiously and knocked Ogris with his hand as he turned into a statue. After making sure that the Ogris in front of him was really a statue, Arthur glanced at the lion's tooth in his hand and jumped up without hesitation to smash the stone statue.
Looking at the rubble on the ground, Arthur finally relieved himself, this Ogris's becoming like this is already related to the mysterious man who has just appeared. It couldn't be better that the evil Hell Lord who has plagued the continent of Elda for years has been destroyed.
Arthur picked Heinris up again and prepared to leave the mysterious cave, but found that the only exit around him was still above the cave, which was the entrance for Heinris, but it was too high. Arthur couldn't get out with Heinris in his arms.
Just when Arthur was at a loss, he suddenly noticed that the stone walls of the cave were trembling. Feeling bad, Arthur hurriedly dodged to the side. I heard a boom, and the stone wall was blown open. In the dust, Arthur saw a group of sergeants take a defensive stance and enter the cave. Before Arthur could see who was coming, he heard the other party shouting urgently: "Your Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness." The dust cleared a little, and Arthur saw that it was the army guarding the Valley of the Kings that was approaching, led by General Ossad, the commander of the King's army.
"Your Royal Highness, are you alright? Ossad ran up to Arthur and said anxiously, "Your Royal Highness, how are you?" "I'm fine, but the teacher is now seriously injured and unconscious. Hearing Arthur's words, Osard discovered the Archmage Heinris in Arthur's arms. "The teacher was seriously injured by the demon Ogries in order to save me, and now he needs to be treated urgently. Arthur explained to Ossad. "Yes, yes. Someone is coming, quickly carry the master out, and let the military doctor come over to see the master's situation. As he gave the order, Ossad asked Arthur, "Your Royal Highness, what is the matter? You suddenly appeared in the Valley of the Kings? What about the skull dragon?" Arthur smiled bitterly, "General Ossad, what just happened, let's talk about it later." Let's get out of here now. It's so ominous. "Yes, Your Highness the Prince. Osad was also very simple, and directly ordered to return the way he came, without any inspection of the cave.
As everyone prepared to leave the cave, a shadow of worms crept through the rubble, eventually merging into Arthur's shadow, all of which no one was aware of.
Arthur walked out of the cave to see the still dim sky and the King's army still fighting the skeletons. "This time the movement of the Necronomicon Mountain is unusual, and the skeleton army is still appearing in a steady stream, as if there is no end. Ossad explained to Arthur what was happening. "Your Royal Highness, let's go back to the royal capital first. "Hmm," Arthur led the charge into the army of skeletons with lion's fangs in hand. The powerlessness and anger of Ogries on the other side were all poured out on the skeleton in front of him at this moment, and the fragile skeleton was not Arthur's opponent at all. In the midst of the slash, Arthur had already rushed into the depths of the skeleton army, surrounded by fragile skeletons armed with rusty knives.
Without the slightest fear, Arthur held a lion's tooth and showed his battle heroism in the Sea of Skulls like his ancestor King Arthur.
I don't know how long it took, but the sky was still dark, and I couldn't see the change of time. Arthur also didn't know how long he had been fighting, even if the enemy was just a weak skeleton soldier, but for so long, Arthur was exhausted and out of breath.
"Your Royal Highness, let's retreat for the time being. We can't wipe out all of these skeleton armies with the strength we have, and any further like this will only increase casualties. Ossad had also noticed the change in Arthur's strength, and after cutting down a skeleton, he persuaded him.
"General Ossad, you retreat first, and I will break off. Even though his arms were already sore, Arthur still felt that there was a nameless anger in his heart that could not be vented, so he was still reluctant to leave this place and wanted to continue fighting. "Your Royal Highness, you must retreat first, or we will have to stay with you. Ossad rejected Arthur with a resolute expression. Arthur sighed helplessly, "General Ossad, let's retreat together." ”
"Retreat. With Ossad's order, the King's army, which had already retreated, began to break away from the battle with the skeleton army in an orderly manner and retreated to the military camp in the Valley of the Kings.
Although the skeleton army is extremely numerous, it is unorganized, relying only on the instinct of hatred of living beings. As the King's army retreated, the Skeleton Army was in hot pursuit. The King's army fought and retreated, and finally retreated into the camp in the Valley of the Kings when the Skeleton Army had fully caught up. Relying on the defense of the barracks, the king's army had a respite for the time being. But Ossad still had a sad face.
Ossad, Hank, and Jerry stood on the arrow tower and looked at the dense army of skeletons, with sad faces. "General, with the current offensive of the skeleton army, our fortifications will be breached in two hours at most, and the soldiers have just passed through the battle of Necromantic Mountain, and I am afraid that the combat effectiveness will not be able to recover yet. Hank described the current situation of the King's army to Ossad. "How is Mage Hadrey's side, and when will he be able to regain his mana?" This will give you enough time to wait for reinforcements to arrive. "General, just now Master Hadley said that it will take a day and a night to fully recover his magic, and he can't help us for the time being. "What about the reinforcements?" "At the first time when the undead mountain changed, we reported back to the royal capital, but so far, it still hasn't disappeared!" Jerry's answer made Ossad's heart cold.
"Pick out the soldiers in the best condition, let them rest well, and in two hours, when the skeleton army breaks through the barracks, let them lead His Royal Highness to break through. Jerry, Hank, you two lead the team. "Osad knew that the only thing he could do now was for Prince Arthur, the heir of the Ovit Kingdom, to break through. "What about you, General?" Jerry and Hank, as soon as they heard Ossad's orders, knew that he was ready to sacrifice himself and stay in the Valley of the Kings to delay the skeleton army and buy time for Arthur's breakout. "According to the laws of our country, members of the King's Army are not allowed to leave the Valley of the Kings for life. As the supreme commander of the army in the Valley of the Kings, I must stay and fight with the remaining brothers until the last moment. Jerry, Hank, you don't have to convince me, I've made up my mind. Ossad's tone was very tough, and Jerry and Hank understood what their general's personality was like, so they stopped talking.
Osad, seeing his good brothers who had fought all his life, stood silent at the moment, and could only pat them on the shoulder silently.
Time flies, two hours go by in a flash. The already crumbling walls could no longer withstand the attack of the skeleton army. With a bang, the tall wall collapsed.
Osad noticed the change in the façade and said, "Live well." After saying this to his two good brothers, Ossad walked up to Arthur and said, "Your Royal Highness, I am sorry. Just when Arthur was surprised, Ossad knocked Arthur unconscious with a knife.
"Brothers, our mission. "For everything in the Valley of the Kings. "Our beliefs. The deafening declaration of "invincible" made every soldier in the barracks high, and Ossad looked at his tired but determined comrades-in-arms and said, "Get out of the Valley of the Kings alive." With that, Ossad took the lead in charging the army of skeletons that had already stormed the barracks.
