Chapter 343: Skeletons
It has been a few days since the border, this is Pingguan City, half a month ago, Zhao Yulong entered the Minglong fiefdom from here with the army, and now he is back here.
At this time, Jing Rui was standing on the city wall waiting for Zhao Yulong's arrival: "You are much faster than I expected, so are we going to fight now?"
"I'm naturally faster without soldiers, and if it weren't for the inconvenience of flying here, I think it would only take me a day at most. So tell me the situation here now, can't you make up your mind whether to fight or not?"
"I think that's true, the enemy is very different this time. It seems to have wisdom, and has been shouting outside the walls for days. You know, scolding, just like what Hu Yun did in the first place, so I don't know what to do now. ”
"Are they all like this, or is there only one like this?" Hearing this, Zhao Yulong couldn't help but be a little pleased.
"Of course there's only one, and if everybody is like that, it's okay? Anyway, listen to it! They're screaming again, and everybody's morale is low right now. As he spoke, Jing Rui pointed to the skeleton that was scolding outside the city gate.
It was indeed a skeleton, and like the other skeletons, it was indistinguishable. In fact, all the skeletons are the same, and there is really no difference between them. Therefore, this skeleton, to be honest, Zhao Yulong didn't see anything special.
But there's one thing that sets him apart from other skeletons, and that's that he can talk, and he can swear. Good guy, this guy has a pretty sharp mouth. Although Zhao Yulong didn't know exactly what he was scolding, judging from the shape of his mouth, it was undoubtedly not a good word.
And now, after he finished scolding, he finally said a few serious words: "The human race inside, you are a group of turtles." You do not dare to send men out to meet you, for you know that you will be defeated. If that is the case, why not open the gates and let us in, so that we will not have to be troubled. ”
To be honest, Zhao Yulong was still curious about such a skeleton that could speak human words. Now that I feel the past with my mental abilities, I find that he is still supported by magic, but his soul is complete, which means that he has his own consciousness.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yulong jumped off the city wall. Now this scene made the undead seem a little shocked, because this city wall is not low, and ordinary people would have died if they jumped from here.
And now Zhao Yulong is not only alive, but also intact, such a strength does not need to think much to know that it is definitely not simple. But as an undead, he didn't have much to worry about, and now he just said, "Do you want to come out to fight?"
"Otherwise, do you think?, could it be that I have nothing to do for a day?" As he spoke, Zhao Yulong glanced at all the undead around him, and it was obvious that there was no complete soul except for this skeleton.
"In that case, do you want to represent your army to compete with fighting spirit or magic?" The skeleton was smart, and now seeing Zhao Yulong's acquiescence, he hurriedly said.
"But I see that you are all dead, where did you get any fighting spirit?" said Zhao Yulong, who focused his gaze on the orc at the end of the team.
It was an orc who had been dead for a long time, and the maggots on his body had moved everywhere in his flesh, but the flesh on his body had not completely decayed, and his bones were not exposed, but it was even more disgusting to look at this way.
"We don't have a fighting spirit, so this time it's for you. You can use vindictiveness, we use brute force. Since you're looking at him, he's your enemy, up!"
As soon as the words fell, the orc rushed towards Zhao Yulong, and the flesh on his body kept shaking during the run, and the maggots that shook off the ground looked extremely disgusting.
was watching, and saw that he was smashing down on Zhao Yulong with a heavy hammer. Zhao Yulong didn't hesitate, just kicked directly towards his hand as usual, hoping to force him back as before.
But it didn't work, and the kick on his arm was like a kick on the cotton, and he fell straight in. Seeing this, Zhao Yulong hurriedly retreated before withdrawing from the range of the heavy hammer.
At this time, shaking off the maggots on his legs, Zhao Yulong remembered that the dead body was unconscious. At the moment, I feel a little tricky, after all, in the face of such a disgusting thing, Zhao Yulong really doesn't want to get close to him.
Besides, even getting close to him didn't do much. He didn't feel any pain, and his flesh was already a little rotten and soft, and it didn't feel any force at all.
Just as Zhao Yulong hesitated, the orc picked up the giant hammer and hit Zhao Yulong again. I don't know how his body can pick up such a weapon, and still be able to do it so quickly.
It's just that now Zhao Yulong can't think of so many things, if this giant hammer falls, even if it doesn't hit his body, it will hit the city wall. And this city wall looks sturdy, but Zhao Yulong knows that these stones are not necessarily very powerful.
Perhaps a normal attack can be resisted, but this orc's giant hammer will definitely not be able to stop it. It's only because these undead don't know this that the city wall can always be intact now, but as long as they know about it, it won't necessarily be a good thing.
So you can't get out of the way, but if you don't let it be hit, it's yourself. Unless he can prevent the hammer from falling, but he can't force it back, the only way to stop it now is to kill him.
Yes, kill him. Zhao Yulong suddenly felt that he was a little stupid, and he even forgot the most important method. Since he's already died once, why not let him die again?
In just an instant, a soul sword passed directly through the orc's brain. Sure enough, as Zhao Yulong guessed, once their brains were broken and the magic inside leaked out, they would definitely die.
And now, this soul sword has pierced it, and the entire orc has fallen directly behind him as if he had suddenly lost his support. However, after a while, he saw his giant hammer smash down behind him, injuring some of the skeletons in the front row.
"What, if you are still unconvinced, you can try it!" Although he couldn't see through the skeleton's thoughts now, after seeing that the enemy's strength was not very strong, Zhao Yulong felt the need to have a good time with them.
"The reason why you can win is because you have a fighting spirit, he doesn't, it doesn't count. Do you dare to compare magic?"
I had already guessed that this skeleton would repay the debt, but Zhao Yulong didn't show anything, but just said very usually: "Since that's the case, then call the strongest spell among you to compare." ”
Hearing this, the skeleton smiled proudly: "This is what you said, if you lose at that time, you have to open the city gate for me and welcome us in." ”
"Naturally, but if you lose, you have to get out of my way, and you are not allowed to step on my fiefdom for half a step from now on!"
"Deal!" said the skeleton smiling again. In fact, as a skeleton, he didn't have the right to promise Zhao Yulong this, but in his opinion, he wouldn't lose, so why worry about this.
Besides, even if he broke the contract after losing, how much impact would it have on him, the undead, so now he agreed, pointing to one of the banshees in the team and saying, "Come out and let them see how the magic of our undead is!"
"Yes? I would like to see it, Yang Zheng. Saying that, Zhao Yulong looked at Yang Zheng on the city wall.
Yang Zheng felt the arduousness of the task, and now he was about to jump off the city wall, but was stopped by Zhao Yulong: "You don't want to come down, I am enough to deal with this kind of goods." ”
"Okay! Since Brother Long personally took action, then I am also relieved. With that, Yang Zheng sat back again.
"It's you again, why don't you have anyone in your fiefdom?" Seeing that there was still such a Zhao Yulong in front of him, the skeleton was a little annoyed now.
"It's not that we have no one in our fiefdom, but for you people, I'm enough. Don't say it's one-on-one, even if I destroy you, it's just a simple matter!" Saying that, Zhao Yulong had already condensed his soul power in his hands.
At this time, the banshees had also condensed some magic, they had no intelligence, and now they were obviously under the control of the skeleton, and they did whatever the skeleton told them to do.
Now I saw a black ball coming towards Zhao Yulong, this is the magic of the undead. I don't know what it is, but it's clearly related to the plague.
Therefore, Zhao Yulong did not hesitate at this time, although he didn't know a lot of spells, at least he would know some basic things. Now a small fireball rose in his hand and hit the black ball.
"How ridiculous, you still want to compare to us with such magic, could it be that you are ready to pay the bill?" The skeleton couldn't help but smile when he saw the fireball, and he was so small.
But soon, he found that he couldn't laugh. Yes, it was a horrible fireball, terrifying. The moment it met the black orb, it devoured the other and relied on the other as fuel to burn more and more.
Now it was hit on the body of the banshee who could not dodge, and in an instant a fire burned out, and she did not even leave ashes.
Seeing this, the skeleton couldn't laugh out loud. Yes, all this in front of him really frightened him, and when he was full of confidence, such an inconspicuous fireball actually killed a banshee.
This banshee was not simple at all, but now she was killed by such a simple fireball. There is only one possibility of all this, that is, the person in front of him is very powerful!
Yes, he is definitely not ordinary strong, but strong enough to destroy them. As Zhao Yulong said before, he does have the ability to make their entire army die.
Because it was just an ordinary fireball that could no longer be ordinary, but he used such an ability, so he would definitely not be so simple.
Now this skeleton is naturally smart, and after realizing that the form is wrong, he directly said: "Okay! You win, according to the agreement, we will leave here, never set foot here, and the whole army will retreat!"
"Wait!" Seeing that the undead army was about to leave, Zhao Yulong stopped them. At this time, in Zhao Yulong's body, the soul power in his body was piling up in one place.
"What are you doing? Could it be that you have anything else to say?" Although Zhao Yulong now meant to let them stay, this skeleton felt that something was wrong. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have a heart, he would have been beating fast by now.
"No, I don't have anything to say. Just remember what I said before, all of you combined, I can deal with it alone!" As he spoke, a majestic soul power erupted from Zhao Yulong's body.
In an instant, the surrounding land was covered with a thick layer of ice. And those undead were all frozen and couldn't move, and the skeleton understood Zhao Yulong's intention at this time: "You!"
"If you have anything to say, let's talk about it later!" Zhao Yulong said as he took his head and then withdrew the ice. I saw that those undead who were frozen by the ice turned into broken ice one by one, and then they were burned by Zhao Yulong.
Inside, the light is dim and the windows are closed all around. The thing that was lit was only a candle, and a skull was sitting on the table. If he hadn't spoken, no one would have known he was alive.
"What are you doing with me? Tell you, don't think about it, I won't say anything!" At this time, the skeleton saw Zhao Yulong enter the house, and hurriedly said.
And Zhao Yulong didn't pay attention to him, just took out some more candles and put the longest one on his head: "I know you won't say it, and I didn't ask you to say it." I'm just missing an artistic lamp, and you just have this candle in your head. ”
"You're such a madman, only a madman would think that such a thing is called art!" seemed to drip wax on his head, and now he spoke a little violently.
"I'm crazy, okay, let's just do it! So what do you count? You don't even know what you are now, you have no feelings, you have no purpose, what are you?" As he spoke, Zhao Yulong pushed open the window, and the room was much brighter at this time.
"How do I not know who I am? I'm Ayalaymu Cadas, a worker at the Frost Farm, I remember, I remember all of this. The skeleton was a little angry, and now it had forgotten what he had said before and didn't tell Zhao Yulong anything.
"Do you remember what you were when you were alive?" Zhao Yulong was also a little happy when he heard this, he thought that it would be difficult to use these words, but he didn't expect to be so easy to say these words now.
"Yes, I can remember not only who I was but what I did when I was alive. I knew all this shortly after I died when the necromancer resurrected me. As he spoke, the skeleton began to speak, forgetting the candle still burning on his head.
"Since you can still remember this, you should understand that you were a human being in life. Then you should be fighting for your country, but look at what you're doing now?
"Yes, perhaps! It is true in your eyes, and who can deny the words of a high-ranking lord?
The skeleton paused, as if to sort out the word order: "You know what? I was a farmer when I was born, working for the farmer, and I didn't get anything all year round. I just wanted my lover to eat more, so I secretly hid some food and didn't pay taxes, and as a result, I had to be sent to the army and separated from my lover. At that time, everyone said that I deserved it, and no one pleaded for me. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Yulong looked at the skeleton. He was a skeleton after all, and now he had nothing on his face. However, if Zhao Yulong thought that he was not a skeleton, the expression on his face should be very rich!
But now Zhao Yulong didn't interrupt the skeleton to continue, so he was still saying his words: "Then I died, I died on the battlefield." To be precise, it was abandoned as cannon fodder. No one cared about me until I was resurrected. Then I became one of the commanders of the entire army of the undead, leading a part of the army to capture the castle just to be able to stay alive. You should know that the magic in our minds is not endless, and only good warriors can get more magic. And now that I have found a reason for my existence, you are going to punish us with the word justice!"
At this point, the undead's emotions were a little out of control: "Where are you when we low-level people need justice? You only do things for your own benefit, and you don't think of any so-called justice at all. I bet you wouldn't care if it weren't for my army attacking your fiefdom, if it weren't for my army attacking your fiefdom. ”
"Then your bet should be lost, I don't know what you've been through, though. But it may seem that you have been treated unfairly, but you should know that it is not someone else who has given you injustice. Maybe those people deserve to die, but you shouldn't hurt the innocent, otherwise what's the difference between you and them?"
"Yes, there is no difference between us, but so what, anyway, I fell into your hands, and it is a matter of your words to kill or not, what else is there to say?"
"Of course, you can tell me where the necromancer is and what forces he has around him, so that you can at least help us end this war as soon as possible. ”
"But why am I helping you, and what good is it for me that you survive?"
"Yes, my survival has little to do with you. But don't you want your lover to live? Don't forget that he's a man too, though I can't promise you anything. But you should understand that as long as there is no army of the undead, their chances of survival are much greater. ”
I'm sorry, guys, but because of my illness and Kavin's relationship, I can only write 5,000 words from today. It is expected that he will be well at the beginning of next month and will recover from 10,000 more, please forgive me.
