Chapter Seventy-One: Attack

The weather in early spring did not make the flowers and branches in the green space along Sanshui Street begin to spread, and the subtropical temperature seems to be still immersed in the memory of winter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoThere are only a few people rushing through the empty streets, and the center of the fortress is as serious and monotonous as ever, just like the magnificent buildings lining the streets, which make it difficult to feel close.

This street is home to a few of the most famous shops in the kingdom, but it doesn't show off the prosperity of the royal capital like the royal capital, nor does it show off to the sky like the magic of the sea city. These shops have an ordinary, calm appearance, and a sense of solemnity that has seen the history of mankind.

At the corner of the street facing the central square, there is a temple with a faint metallic sheen on the surface of the outer wall, but it does not form a strong reflection of sunlight, and the adventurers who pass by know that these exterior walls are all made of the latest research results of the Emerald Tower, which is currently the most efficient magic energy adsorption material.

Arnold looked at the temple in front of him, which was close to zero light pollution, and squinted his eyes and counted the tall pillars twice, confirming that they were twenty-seven.

This frivolous act of counting the pillars was his method of calming his nervesβ€”it was his first date in his life, and the person he was dating was Lydia, a famous aristocratic lady in Adelaide.

"Although the unexpected arrival of this battlefield has left the kingdom unprepared, as long as this legendary fortress is still there, there is no need to worry about anything else. Lydia seemed to see Arnold's nervousness, mistaking it for fear of her future fate, and opened her mouth to comfort her.

"Didn't you ask for help from the other forces?" Arnold asked calmly, his clear eyes shining through.

"Although Adelaide is a small country, the glory of their ancestors makes them not lack pride in their bones. ”

"Just for the sake of unwarranted glory?"

"You don't understand, those people, for the sake of glory, can throw away anything. ”

"Even if you lose your life for it?"

"Even for that. ”

Arnold and Lydia asked and answered, and the conversation was calm and fluid, as if they were talking about the topics that adolescent men and women should talk about, rather than discussing the future fate of the kingdom.

"Even if that person in the royal capital is enlightened, I don't think anyone will come except the Highland Knights. After the diplomat of the kingdom is handed over to the loser of the Isaac family, the corruption is a mess, and you don't have to think about any more allies. Lydia seemed to think of the bad behavior of the ruined son, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Aren't the undead the common enemy on the continent?" Arnold was still puzzled.

"So what, now we don't know much about the undead, no one knows whether the undead are strong or weak, how many they are, and how dangerous they are. ”

Lydia took a sip of the delicious magic drink and continued: "At least in the eyes of some forces, this is just an accidental undead disaster, not a big deal, sandwiched between Adelaide and Noller, it will not do anything, it can be easily eliminated by them, but it can cause us some trouble." ”

"Ridiculous. Arnold suddenly thought of the Resident Evil of the previous life. Human beings always think that they can control the development of the situation, but once some things develop to the point where they cannot be stopped, they will jump out of the circle for the first time, curse the injustice of God, and never reflect on it.

The end of mankind is all self-inflicted.

"We sent out many adventure squads, but none of them were heard from and disappeared without a trace. This group of undead is mysterious, and it can be seen from the soul eaters who have attacked them last time that they are evolving themselves and becoming stronger and stronger. ”

The conversation abruptly stopped, and Lydia followed Arnold's example and looked out the window, not knowing what to choose.

Suddenly, Lydia turned around, as if she had made up her mind, and placed a report in front of Arnold's desk, "This is a secret report from Nole's dark disk three days ago, which recorded the most secret information about the undead, for which they paid the price of a general, several strong men. I secretly copied this in private, you can read it with confidence. I think you might be able to help you later. ”

Lydia didn't know if she remembered something in the Selene Mountains, and she had an inexplicable message about Arnold. This man always seems to be able to turn decay into magic, and I hope that in this matter, he can also create miracles.

Arnold glanced back at the secret report on the table, carefully put it away, he could feel that this simple secret report was full of blood.

"Reinforcements from the Highland Knights will arrive in half a month at the latest, along with reinforcements from the Holy See of Light and the Magic Association. My father was also on his way to the Pamirs, hoping that the group of white wizards who had studied witchcraft for half his life would come out to help. Lydia smiled slightly, no matter how proud the nobles of Adelaide were, they would not be stupid enough to consume the warriors of the kingdom and resist the invasion of the undead alone.

After all, the elimination of the undead is a continent-wide affair, not a one-person affair, although the forces of all parties have some support, but out of morality, they will still send a force to assist.

The reason why humanity is strong is still the word unity, otherwise the continent of Nantes would have become a paradise for the undead.

"Rumor has it that the Land of the Sea has also sent a group of slaves to help. Arnold laughed, realizing that humans are not so incompetent.

The conversation stopped again, and Arnold noticed that what Lydia had to say seemed to be finished, and that he didn't seem to have anything to say, and just as he wanted to ask if he could go to work on such a boring topic, Lydia suddenly spoke.

Arnold looked at Lydia, who was sitting across from her, with her mouth open and closed, saying something, but she couldn't get a sound.

What's going on?

Arnold was stunned and wanted to ask what Lydia was talking about.

Airplanes~~~~

Suddenly, a loud chirp rang in Arnold's ears, and he felt that his head was clouded and he couldn't hear anything. His vision was gray, his pupils were a little dilated, and Lydia's figure became more and more blurry in his eyes.

I could only vaguely see her suddenly standing up, whispering something to herself, and then emitting a bright green light from her hand to envelop herself.

Bang!

Arnold felt a loud noise suddenly sound in his ears, followed by a loud roar.

"Be careful, it's the soul howl of the undead banshee!" Lydia's voice was heard, and the whole house was shaken violently.

Arnold looked outside, and the pedestrians on the street all fell to the ground wailing, and the doors and windows of the shops on both sides were shattered.

"Come with me, the undead are attacking!" Lydia narrowed her bright red lips, a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, and pulled Arnold towards the fortress walls.

This was the first time that Lydia had encountered such a large area of soul howl, which made her unable to resist it all of a sudden, and just now she gritted her teeth to use the spiritual tranquility scroll from the goddess of the forest.

The soul howl of the undead banshee is a spiritual attack, and the mage has natural resistance, and the biggest one is against a melee class like Arnold.

If it weren't for Lydia's mental tranquility, it would have taken at least half a day for Arnold to regain his strength. Thinking of this, Lydia's heart suddenly chilled, and she suddenly thought that most of the warriors in the fortress were unable to resist and had lost their combat power, so they could only rely on their legal duties, how could they be able to block the attack of the undead.

Lydia and Arnold ran out into the street, only to feel a dark cloud flying in the sky, slowly obscuring the morning sun.

"What is this?" Arnold opened his mouth as he looked at the boundless expanse of undead winged beasts.
