Chapter 514: Infiltration
A curtain of death is actually impossible to stop today's Wang Qi. It's just that if you really want to break through, it will definitely startle the snake in advance.
Although according to intelligence, the elite of the Death Council has sailed to the East, no one knows how many defenses are left in the headquarters today.
Wang Qi's purpose of their trip was to destroy the dimensional passage, not to raze the entire undead headquarters with the power of their subordinates. Therefore, if unnecessary wars can be avoided, it is better to avoid them.
Wang Qi put away the bone dragon and led James down to the ground. Here is a small farm on the outskirts of the city of F, almost a kilometer away from the area where the curtain of death shrouds it.
The reason why I chose this place is because the dark line arranged by James is here to connect with them. However, when Wang Qi really saw the legendary dark line, he secretly frowned because of his appearance.
This should just be a Western man in his thirties, but to be honest, judging by their appearance alone, it is impossible to tell his real age at all.
His cheeks, nay, or the entire skull, were so emaciated that they didn't look like a humanoid, and looked like a skull covered in human skin.
However, Wang Qi also knew that this was indeed a living person, because there was still a kind of living vitality in his body, and the eyes that were deeply sunken in the sockets did not flicker with the ghostly fire unique to the undead.
But he was not a normal living person, because in addition to being angry, he was also surrounded by a large amount of necromantic energy. Wang Qi is really a little difficult to understand, what kind of existence such a guy is.
"It's also half-undead."
As if he understood Wang Qi's thoughts, James on the side explained to him in a low voice, "The Death Council has developed a method that can have the advantages of both humans and undead. Of course, this requires a little surgery, and the failure rate is very high. Mr. Jack didn't work out. In fact, at least in all the surgeries I've had, I've only been successful......"
Speaking of this, James suddenly stopped abruptly, Wang Qi turned his head to look at him, but saw a strange look flashing in his eyes, and suddenly, he suddenly understood the meaning of the other party.
The only successful person may be himself.
......
Drake City, shrouded in the curtain of death, is the headquarters of the Death Council. It's just that before the catastrophe, the members of the council were incognito and only operated in the shadows, but now the situation has reversed, and they have become the masters of this city, this country, and even this continent.
The Death Veil obscures the entire city, and at the edge of the Veil, there are a large number of undead elites patrolling day and night. Originally, before James arrived, he was ready to repeat his old tricks and use shadow walking techniques to infiltrate the city. However, after listening to his plan, James regretfully told him that this solution would not work.
Now Wang Qi has placed a full hundred psychic towers in the base of Fuben Mountain, and the number of psychic towers in Rick City, as the headquarters of the Death Council, has exceeded 700.
These towers are also linked to form a huge defensive circle, and any enemy who tries to use stealth magic to enter will be forced out of their true body. And if you appear in front of the psychic tower, then you will have to face the opponent's stormy counterattack.
Perhaps it is precisely because of such a defensive weapon that the two undead pioneers left behind in the headquarters dare to lead the expedition so confidently.
However, the method of infiltrating Rick City is far simpler than Wang Qi imagined. The guy named Jack led them through a sewer well outside the city into an underground sewer channel.
It has to be said that the construction of urban sewers in Rick City is worthy of being claimed to be world-class, not only tall and spacious, like an underground palace, but also free of black water garbage, and there are no stinking rotten objects.
Of course, these tunnels now have a lot of undead creatures patrolling them. However, due to the isolation without the Veil of Death, their patrols have also weakened a lot.
Jack was originally a member of the Death Council, and Wang Qi was now also in the form of an undead, and James didn't know why, walking among them at the moment, his body also exuded the same aura as the undead, so that the patrolling undead warriors only glanced at them a few times, and then went in other directions.
"Don't be surprised, I said before that you're the only half-undead I've successfully operated on, but you're not the only being. For example, I'm actually the same kind as you. ”
Seeing that Wang Qi had been glancing at him with suspicion, James couldn't help but smile and explained, "It was my mentor, Professor Lehman, who did the work for me, but he is different from my philosophy, he is a fanatical believer in death. ”
After about five kilometers of winding passage, Jack led them up a flight of steps to the ground, explaining in a low voice as he went:
"From here, you can bypass the outer towers, but since Mr. James left, two new towers have been built near the headquarters. The defenses over there were tight, and they were too close to the church to get around. ”
"Church?"
Wang Qi glanced at James puzzled, and James spread his hands and said:
"He's talking about St. York's Ministry, which is actually the headquarters of the Council of the Dead. I remember telling you before that the first members of the Council of the Dead hid in these Christian churches under the guise of spreading religion. ”
"Is that noodle passage in there too?"
Wang Qi nodded and asked. James also nodded affirmatively and replied:
"The underground of the church has been dug through, and there is a large underground palace twenty meters deep underground, and the dimensional passage is at the lowest level of the underground palace."
"Since it's underground, why should we go up, why don't we dig a passage and get there?"
Wang Qi frowned, and his steps up the steps couldn't help but slow down. James shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly:
"It's not that simple, there are a lot of defensive magic traps set up around the dungeon, and there are a large number of corpse beetles hidden in the soil. Although the level is not high, the number is huge, and it is impossible to enter without alerting them. ”
After a pause, James glanced at Wang Qi and said with a smile:
"So entering through the church is actually the quickest way, but those two psychic towers, can you be sure of dealing with them?"
"No problem."
Wang Qi grinned, his hand had already drawn the sinking sword at his waist, and then a large black mud appeared beside him, and one by one the undead servants struggled to stand up from the mud......
