Chapter Fifty-Six: Mountain No. 2

After this period of operation, the hill where Roy is located has completely changed its appearance.

Halfway up the mountain, the cave has been enclosed by huge rock-filled walls, and from a distance, it looks like a simple but sturdy castle.

On the hillside at the entrance of the cave, a high platform was erected. In addition to the stone steps leading to the cave in the middle, the drop between the platform and the steep hillside has become a natural protection against the coveted monsters.

The surrounding land was leveled and grained was planted. Layers of terraced rice fields, covering the hillsides. The riverside and valley between the mountains have also been reclaimed. The green and faint wheat seedlings are already calf high.

In the distance, there is a fence of huge logs. The wall is six meters high, hinged by demonic vines, and each section is supported by giant logs. Thousands of skeleton soldiers cut down trees day and night, surrounding the hill.

In front of the fence was a trench four meters deep. In front of and behind the trenches and walls, Roy laid all sorts of traps and magic circles. This arrangement, coupled with the patrols of skeleton soldiers, has made this hill a forbidden area for nearby magical beasts. Demonic beasts below the seventh order did not dare to approach.

Since he decided to pay attention to the desperate situation of management, Roy has taken the mountain where he and Malt once lived as his base camp, and has spared no effort to build it.

The cave is heavily defended, and there is already a rudimentary palace inside the cave. The area of the cave was enlarged, and holes were cut in the walls for candlesticks and oil lamps. The floor was paved with smooth ashlar. The pond where white fish live in the cave has also been built into a beautiful pool.

Roy pondered and put a sculpture in it another day, and then stole the old skeleton's crystal chandelier, carpet, and beautiful court-style furniture. In the future, the tunnel will be dug and the upper and lower sections will be penetrated. Make a few more floors out, transform them into rooms, and turn the whole mountain into your own castle.

However, this time back to a desperate situation, Roy didn't have the same mind.

This hill. He named it No. 1 Mountain. And what he wants to do now is to seize the second mountain.

Roy's eye on Mount Two is located to the north of Mount One.

When he and Malt were here, Roy had carefully surveyed the surroundings. To the south of Mountain No. 1 is a peerless ridge that rises into the sky, not only land demonic beasts can't climb up, even flying demonic beasts can't fly over. Above the high cliff, there seems to be a mysterious forbidden.

In the Continent of Redemption. The Desperate Situation is definitely the most mysterious place in this land. Neither before nor after the Final Battle, no one can really understand this place. Countless strong people have entered a desperate situation one after another, but there is not one of them who can really come out alive.

This is the world of Warcraft, where not only all kinds of powerful Warcraft live, but also a variety of precious medicinal herbs and magic plants. It's a natural treasure as well as hell.

No one knows exactly how many species there are here, and no one can draw a map of this place. No one has even been able to find a steady passage to here.

I want to go into a desperate situation. You can only rely on luck to hit the elusive spatial vortex. And if you want to come out, you must also pass through the guò space vortex.

There have been survivors who have tried to find a desperate situation following the general directions and mountain shapes they remember.

However, they had traveled almost the entire Land of Redemption, and had climbed over every peak of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, but they could not find the true location of the desperate situation.

So, all the time. There are legends that the desperate situation is actually at the other end of the gap in time and space, belonging to a completely different plane from the Avalon continent.

And No. 1 Mountain seems to be in a corner of a desperate situation.

Ridges to the south, west and east. Surround Mount No. 1 in the middle. Of these three directions, there are only a few low hills that are connected to Mount No. 1.

And No. 2 Mountain is just a few kilometers north of No. 1 Mountain. Its location is right in front of Mount No. 1. It's like a tiger's fangs, as long as you occupy it, it's like putting a lock on the entrance. When the time comes, the nearby monsters will be cleared out, and this corner will all belong to Roy.

Therefore, if he wants to really gain a foothold in the desperate situation, build the first mountain into a strong fortress, and take the second mountain, it is the most urgent and important goal of Roy to manage the territory of the desperate situation.

During this time, as long as Roy is free, he will go to No. 2 Mountain to investigate. Even if he is not in a desperate situation, he will let his skeleton soldiers scout.

There is a natural connection between undead summons and necromancers.

Undead creatures obey all commands from summoning mages. As long as the order is given, whether the summoning mage is around or not, it will be faithfully executed.

Therefore, scouting with undead creatures is a must for every necromancer, and it is one of their advantages over other mages who are better suited for large-scale warfare. Tong guò control zhì undead creatures, a necromancer, can control zhì more than dozens of square kilometers of battlefield.

Of course, the detection of undead creatures is not without limitations.

The first is distance limitation.

Only at a certain distance can the mage see what the undead creature sees through the divine connection. Moreover, this requires a considerable amount of mental power and magic power, and the distance between them cannot be too long. Its effect is like the eagle eye of a barbarian shaman.

If the distance between the mage and the summoned undead is too long, then the information seen by the undead creature will be stored, and when it returns to the mage, it will be able to reflect the mage's sea of consciousness through its divine sense.

However, if the undead creatures are destroyed before returning to the mage, even the most important information will only be lost.

Roy is on Hill Two and has lost more than twenty skeleton soldiers. It also includes a skeletal swordsman and a skeletal archer. However, the gain from paying these prices is to find a rough outline of the topography of No. 2 Mountain and the situation of the fierce beasts entrenched in it.

Mount No. 2 is 700 meters high, with dense primeval jungle at the bottom, a lake with a radius of one kilometer to the east, and swamps all around. To the west is a small river that winds through it. The river washes out a deep canyon, and further west, there is a highland meadow with abundant water and grass, and fertile land.

Beyond the mountainside, the vegetation of Mount No. 2 became strangely sparse. Go up the ridge. There are black and red rocks everywhere, and when you reach a hundred meters from the top of the mountain, there is no grass at all.

The peak of Mount No. 2 is steep, and from a distance, it looks like a piece of black charcoal stuck in a green cake. It gives a strange and strong sense of contrast.

Desperate is the realm of Warcraft, almost every mountain. All entrenched in a powerful demonic beast. They are the rulers of the territory. All low-level demonic beasts in the territory will surrender to it. As long as other demonic beasts dare to invade its territory, it will immediately be a war that will never stop fighting.

This war will continue until one side dies, surrenders, or leaves.

And now occupying the top of the second mountain is a group of eighth-order golden-winged tigers. There were probably seven or eight of them. The leader of it was a copper-headed golden-winged tiger, and he already had the strength to be close to the leader of the ninth-order demonic beasts.

Before, because there was Oliver, therefore. Although Roy often saw these golden-winged tigers flying in the distant sky, he was also safe.

On the one hand, with Roy and Malt'er's real strength at that time, not to mention the Eighth Order, even if that Seventh Order Iron Thorn Pig fought hard, he would have to suffer.

On the other hand, the Goldfinch Tiger did not dare to provoke Oliver, who had dragon breath. Eleventh-order dragons, even if it's just pretending to be dragon breath. For the eighth-order demonic beasts, they all have natural coercion.

Therefore. During the time when Roy was just guarding his own one-third of an acre and living a small life, no one provoked anyone.

But this time, this group of Golden-winged Tigers is an obstacle that Roy must overcome.

Ordinary eighth-level demonic beasts, Roy is not afraid. Even without Oliver's help, with his current strength. With the addition of the Skeleton Legion, it was enough to defeat those seven or eight eighth-order Golden-winged Tigers. However, that copper-headed golden-winged tiger had the strength to approach the ninth order, and it was not easy to deal with.

The last time I left. Roy directly sent ten skeleton swordsmen, ten skeleton archers, five skeleton knife axemen, and a death knight to Mount Two to investigate.

This was his last reconnaissance before preparing to attack Mountain Two.

And this time, as soon as he stepped into a desperate situation, Roy, who was galloping, immediately got the message back to the skeletons who were close to him.

Rumble!

Roy was like a meteor, landing on the edge of a cliff hundreds of meters away from Mountain No. 2. The long body, in the night, is like a lone wolf looking down on the earth.

Skeleton Swordsman and Skeleton Archer are both second-level undead summons. Compared to the lowest-level skeletons, the combat effectiveness is much higher. However, a permanent summoning of them will cost a lot more mana than summoning a low-level skeleton.

Summoning a permanent Skeleton Swordsman is equivalent to unleashing a level 7 magic. Its mana cost is up to 2,000 magic yards. Even with Roy's current mana reserve of 50,000 magic codes, he could only summon twenty-five. Skeleton Archers and Axemen, on the other hand, consume more mana and summon less.

The time of despair is the same as the redemption of the continent. Therefore, Roy's actual operation here is only a little more than a month. Moreover, for more than a month, he only came here for a few prayer hours every other day.

At this moment, in Roy's sea of consciousness, dense blood-red points of light naturally appeared.

And each blood-red point of light represents an undead summoned creature. As a summoner, he didn't need to count, he knew the number in his mind.

One thousand three hundred and twenty-three skeleton soldiers. One hundred and seventy skeleton soldiers. Seventy-two skeleton swordsmen, thirty-six skeleton archers, and twenty-three skeleton sword axemen. Three Death Knights.

That's all the forces Roy has amassed over the years.

At this moment, standing on the cliff, Roy frowned slightly and half-squinted at Mount No. 2 in the moonlight while digesting the reconnaissance information sent back by the undead.

Eight of the ten skeletal swordsmen died, four of the five skeletal archers died, and two of the five skeletal axemen died. Even the death knight was seriously injured, which can be described as a heavy loss.

And the information they brought back was really unexpected...... (To be continued......)
