Chapter Eighty-Three: Forward

For the first time, Wang Xu walked at the front of the whole procession, and he led the whole team along the path paved with obsidian bricks in the gate of the city gate, slowly marching towards the depths of the city gate.

At this moment, Wang Xu's gaze was constantly changing directions to scan the granite walls and the curved roof of the doorway, because he was surprised to see that on the pale gray walls on both sides of the doorway, which were stacked with granite giant bricks, from top to bottom, with blood-red troll characters, neatly engraved sentences of different lengths and different contents.

Although Wang Xu didn't know too much troll script, and the walls were engraved with ancient troll script, after repeatedly comparing several different sentences, Wang Xu still figured out the meaning of these sentences.

Wang Xu guessed that the ancient troll clan engraved their own laws in blood-red words in the city gate hole, the purpose is obvious: it has the meaning of intimidating their own people, so that they can understand that if they violate the law, they will see blood, and it also has the meaning of popularizing legal knowledge, those laws are engraved in the door hole, and those who enter and exit the city gate are difficult not to see those laws!

In addition to the blood-red law strips on both sides of the wall, on the curved vault located above the city gate hole, there are also lifelike carvings of the reliefs of the gods of the troll clan, each god stared at everyone who passed through the city gate cave with angry eyes, Wang Xu guessed that the purpose of the troll clan to make these god reliefs is nothing more than to tell their people: don't be lucky, the gods are watching you, if you want to blaspheme the gods, then, you have to see blood!

Nilou, who was walking next to Wang Xu, looked at the surrounding troll laws with a serious expression, and occasionally looked up at the reliefs of the troll gods on the curved vault, when she was looking at those blood-red legal texts, her eyes would flash with appreciation, but when she looked at the troll gods above her head, there would be a look of disdain in her eyes, and even, she would shake her head and hum a mocking mutter.

Zana followed behind Wang Xu and Nilou, and the two succubus sisters followed behind Zana, faintly, Wang Xu, Nilou and the two succubus sisters formed a circle and protected Zana inside.

Behind Wang Xu's team was a team of knights led by Livka and Thornton, and behind the team of knights, followed by Wang Xu's team of alchemy puppets, four alchemy puppets carried the powerless troll lord Skoll, the crippled snowfield orc lord Nazug and the iron-spine silver wolf, at the back of the team, old Warren held his snow-white staff, used the staff as a crutch, and limped along the team.

After walking for two minutes, about one or two hundred meters, Wang Xu walked out of the doorway, raised his eyes and saw that there was an ethereal moat with a layer of gray-white water vapor, the river was about ten meters wide, and there was a black wooden coffin floating on it that had already been soaked and rotted.

Wang Xu found that all the wooden coffins in the river were already in tatters, and because those coffins were soaked in water, the corpses that were originally contained in the coffins had long been corroded and there were no bones left.

The most surprising thing for Wang Xu is not that there are so many rotten coffins floating in the river, but that the location of this moat is too weird, to be honest, Wang Xu is also the first time to see someone build a moat in the city, which is too illogical, build the moat in the city, and protect a fart city, it is better to dig a pit directly, and install spikes in the pit!

Facing the position of the city gate, there is a wooden arch bridge five or six meters wide, this wooden arch bridge three or four meters above the river surface, connecting the two banks of the moat, under the shroud of light gray water vapor in the river, the wooden arch bridge in front of you in the hazy haze, giving people a sense of sight of the bridge!

Carefully look at the wooden arch bridge in front of him, Wang Xu sighed in his heart, this wooden arch bridge is really weird enough, although the overall structure of the bridge is made of fir wood, however, there are two rows of golden bronze guardrails on both sides of the bridge, the guardrail is inlaid with a peculiar pattern of floral patterns with its complicated metal casting process, the most incredible thing is that the bridge deck of the wooden arch bridge is paved with a layer of small pieces of obsidian bricks!

Wang Xu shook his head slightly, puzzled in his heart, and wondered if the troll clan was really stupid, they built a bridge like this, the wooden arch bridge made of fir was already very heavy, and they added a bronze fence and an obsidian path on it, then, the bridge was even heavier, it was simply overwhelmed, did they plan to destroy the bridge or what?

When the team stepped on the wooden arch bridge, the scene that happened in reality was exactly as Wang Xu expected, the bridge body shook violently in the screams of "cluck, cluck, cluck......", and it was already heavy, but it finally couldn't bear it at the moment, and it was about to collapse.

Fortunately, before the bridge collapsed, everyone in the team rushed to the other side of the river, just when the last person in the team stepped on the bluestone path on the riverbank, there was a loud "boom ......", the whole wooden arch bridge was ancient in an instant, scattered into a piece of wreckage, twenty seconds later, "coo, click......" There was a strange sound, the wreckage of the arch bridge was washed away by the river, and the tea kung fu disappeared into the fog.

The team walked slowly along the bluestone avenue more than ten meters wide towards the north of the city, the ground around them was shrouded in a layer of white mist that was just below their knees, and countless expressionless translucent ghosts stood quietly on top of the mist, fluttering with the ups and downs of the mist, their heads always followed the direction of the team and gradually turned, and their eyes looked at everyone in the team blankly.

Although he knew that the ghosts around him could not hurt him, he always felt creepy when everyone was stared at by those ghosts that stretched for miles and countless miles.

In order to divert their attention, everyone looked away from the ghosts and moved to the small two-story pale yellow granite buildings on both sides of the avenue.

Occasionally there is a cold wind, blowing out of the passage between the small buildings, blowing open the window on the second floor of a small building, making a loud "bang!", sometimes, the cold wind also carries a burst of "woo, woo, woo......" whistle, this sound is like the laughter of the soul of the desolate grave in the middle of the night, and it is like the ghost crying in the dark yellow spring!

In a short time, the hairs around the knights' bodies stood on end, and a cold feeling from nowhere swam all over their bodies with a snap of their fingers.

"Click!", Wang Xu seemed to have stepped on something, he looked down, and found that there was a long dead bush under his feet, and the grass in the grass had been weathered and dried by two thousand years, and had been eroded into hard stones like sculptures by endless dust.

With the crisp sound of "click, click, click......" after the "stone grass" was broken, everyone continued to walk north along the bluestone avenue, and after walking less than 100 meters, stone monuments began to appear on both sides of the avenue, and as far as the naked eye could see, the further north they went, the more stone monuments on both sides of the road.

"Wait!" Wang Xu suddenly raised his right arm to stop the procession, and then, he turned to look down at Zana, and nodded slightly at her, suggesting that it was time for her to do her work.

Zana first pursed her lips and looked up at Wang Xu, then nodded slightly to show understanding, and then, she gently raised her right arm, held the dragon bone staff in her right hand, and muttered a few spells in a low voice.

I saw that a head-sized red light cluster flew out of the staff, and after the light flew into the air more than one person high, it quickly split into hundreds of small red light clusters the size of thousands of fists, and after trembling slightly for more than ten seconds, countless small red light clusters, dragging a long red tailitis, flew into the soil layer under different tombstones in all directions.

"Gollum, Gollum, Gollum......" After a few strange sounds, the soil layer under the countless tombstones began to bulge upward, and then, "Pop, pop, pop......" A few crisp sounds, countless pairs of skull hands, from the ground to pick up the soil layer above, and then, everyone saw that countless troll skeletons in tattered clothes and gray faces came out of their sleeping graves.

In just a few minutes, these troll skeletons casually picked up a stick or stone on the ground as a weapon, and then walked to the side of the team and surrounded the whole team.

Looking at the scene in front of them, although the knights felt a little scared, they still cheered "oh!", because they all knew very well that with the addition of these undead creatures, the combat effectiveness of their team would be stronger, and the chances of rescuing Downs and Sangu would be even greater.

Glancing at the surrounding graves that had lost their owners, Wang Xu casually threw out a few earth fire talismans, which were controlled by Wang Xu and flew into the tombs of several empty tombs.

......A strange sound suddenly sounded, Wang Xu turned his head to look, only to see that some empty tombs actually came out of the groundwater, and even, there were several empty tombs, turned into fountains, and water columns gushed out from those "fountains", these water columns flashed gracefully under the illumination of the silver moonlight, like pieces of ghost fire, flying freely in the netherworld.

"Forward!" Wang Xu raised his hand and waved forward, and in the shroud of the mist emitted by the fountain, the team took another step forward, continued to move forward, and walked about a hundred meters again, and the team stopped again.

Because there was a four- or five-story mountain of corpses in front of them, and the corpse mountain was piled up with the corpses of trolls wrapped in dark gray sacks and hemp ropes.

This time, without Wang Xu's reminder, Zhana used the undead transformation magic.

The sound of "stab, stab, stab......" kept sounding, and I saw that a corpse of a troll easily tore up the sack wrapped around him, tore off the hemp rope around the sack, and walked down from the mountain of corpses.

After Wang Xu threw a few Earth Fire Talismans on the empty sacks that had lost their dried corpses, the team continued to move forward, and gradually, Zana was already familiar with the entire conversion process, so the team didn't need to stop, Zana was able to directly convert all the troll corpses along the way, of course, in this process, Wang Xu was also constantly placing Earth Fire Talismans.

When the number of troll undead creatures controlled by Zana reached 10,000, she could not control more undead creatures for the time being, so she began to collect those weaker troll undead creatures into her undead magic space, of course, all the troll undead creatures that were included in the undead magic space have been transformed into her own subordinates by Zana.

Gradually, there are more and more troll undead creatures that have been included in her undead magic space, Zana's mental power is gradually getting stronger and stronger, her strength is also significantly improving, and the number of undead creatures she can control is also increasing, the team has only advanced less than a kilometer, and the number of undead creatures around the team has exceeded 30,000, and Zana's level has also increased to the high-level undead magic saint.

After the team passed through a dense forest of dead trees on the northern edge of the city's residential area, they came to a small circular square, about the size of a football field, and in the middle of the square stood an obsidian stone platform the size of a two-man table tennis table, on which stood a three-story statue of a troll.

The statue depicts a tall and burly king of the Troll Clan, wearing a giant crown on his head, wearing battle armor, holding a golden spear symbolizing the troll totem in his right hand, and holding a large round shield on his chest in his left hand, on which is the crest of the Troll Royalty, three crossed fangs.

After carefully looking at all the details of this square a few times, a light smile began to emerge from the corner of Wang Xu's slightly upturned left mouth, and gradually, he narrowed his eyes, and the light smile was about to turn into a big laugh, but Wang Xu barely held back, but the ups and downs in his chest were a little big.

Glancing at the circular square in front of him again, Wang Xu knew that he was going to get rich again......
