Chapter 563: The strangest compatriot
If the Soul Leader Lich Belsmore Aisolos is the highest administrative decision-maker in the entire Isle of the Dead, then the Deathlord Ingham Aisolos is the supreme military decision-maker on the Isle of the Dead.
In the long process of becoming an undead and transforming into a Death Lord, Ingham's bones have long been metalized by the transformation of the breath of death, and this metalized bone has excellent defense against physical damage and is also extremely resistant to magic. Over the years, both strength and agility have improved by leaps and bounds compared to his life, and the indefatigable body of the undead can allow Ingham to easily put on hundreds of pounds of armor, and can wield heavy weapons that ordinary people need to use with both hands at will.
Both defense and attack are very excellent, the Death Lord is a killing machine on the battlefield, and the weapon held by the Death Lord will be filled with a powerful curse, the moment you kill a living person, you can absorb and imprison the soul of the living in your body, the more imprisoned the soul of the Death Lord is, the more powerful the Death Lord is. In addition, the Death Lord also has a characteristic that is the Life Withering and the Death Commander, any living person who is close to the Death Lord will not simply be eroded by the powerful death breath, and the Death Lord can allow the Death Lord to quickly awaken the killed person to become an undead creature, although these immediately awakened undead are not comparable to the elite undead who have been screened and transformed by the necromancer, but the victory is that the continuous number can make the Death Lord immediately gather an army around him.
Although the island of the dead is isolated from the world, it does not mean that Ingham does not have a chance to show his skills, once Ingham has also gone to the mainland to complete some secret transactions with the countries of the continent, at that time Ingham had the opportunity to fight against the army of the secular kingdom, and even once Ingham single-handedly entered the lord's mansion of a certain country and territory, and has wiped out hundreds of soldiers in the lord's mansion with the power of a horse.
In addition to engaging ordinary armies. Sometimes, when Atholos Island needed some rare 'materials', Ingham and his Dark Knights also fought to destroy the giant crocodile, hydra, Acid giant worms and many other extremely dangerous magical beasts, and the most recent mission was a few decades ago, the necromancer who traveled on the continent found a rare and powerful dragon lizard, in order to get the materials on this dragon lizard and also to meet this legendary powerful creature belonging to the wurm for a while, Ingham personally selected more than 30 dark knights and more than a dozen necromancers who came to the dragon lizard to act together to encircle and suppress the dragon lizard. Unfortunately, the siege was unsuccessful, and the dragon lizards were wounded by Ingham and fled into the kingdom of Saxony in disarray, while the undead lost six Dark Knights and three mages.
If the loss of less than ten casualties in the secular kingdom could drive out a powerful dragon lizard, it would definitely be a result worth boasting about to the neighboring countries, but it was only a shame for Ingham to fail to achieve results with such a loss.
In life and after death, Ingham has a proud record and is strong enough to dominate the Isle of the Dead in Atheloth, but today when faced with the undead who has become the Lich King's self-proclaimed undead. Ingham found that his previous understanding of the world was too small.
On the throne┉┉
Arthas, the Lich King, was leaning on the armrest, staring at Ingram and the others as they entered the hall with a gaze that seemed to have penetrated everything. At the moment of being watched by Arthas, Ingham~ the undead who had long since died and forgot the so-called temperature actually inadvertently felt cold from the inside.
Karthus saluted slightly, "Your Majesty the Lich King, our visitor has arrived. ”
After receiving Arthas's conferment, Karthas slowly floated to the right side of the throne, standing with his head held high like a returning courtier. At this time, Ingham also noticed that there were two death knights standing under the throne of Arthas, compared to the death knights seen outside, the power aura of the two was undoubtedly more powerful, especially the strength of one of the death knights with the identity insignia of the sea blue knight on his armor was actually above any of the dark knights under his command.
A sea blue knight was actually transformed into an undead, and that was a powerful warrior who surpassed the great knight chief. In a country, it usually plays an important role in the unification of the army.
Sandwald was also observing Ingham, who was wearing a helmet like Garnilon, was not recognized by Ingham. Maybe even Ingham walked in front of Sonwald and couldn't recognize the undead in front of him, who was originally just a dark warrior on the island of the dead in Atholoth, after becoming the first loyal follower of Arthas, during the days of the expedition with Arthas, Sandwald accepted a lot of death breath and honed his blade, especially after getting the position of commander of Arthas's gradual death knights in disguise, Arthas used frost sorrow to personally transform Sandwald again, and this transformation made Sandwald directly become a dark knight-level undead。 And he is also a high-level dark knight, plus many special abilities belonging to the death knights, and in terms of combat power, he can even deal with four or five low-level dark knights at the same time.
Every time he took a step forward, the more Ingham could feel the strength of Arthas, and the necromancer behind him couldn't help but tense his nerves and stared at the terrifying figure on the throne, if the death breath on Ingham's body was like an ominous black tide that brought about a black disaster, then the death breath on Arthas's body in front of him should be as terrifying as a black hole that was about to devour everything.
It was as if death had materialized. It is not even possible to feel the extent of the power in his body.
"As the master of the Scourge, I would like to say a word of welcome to all of you, the Dead Believers from the Isle of the Dead in Atheros. ”
Arthas's deep voice echoed through the hall, and the souls that flew in the air dissipated as if a stone had met the most terrible thing: "But before I can do that, I need to be sure of your identity┉┉Tell me whether you are my enemies or my friends." ”
Ingham performed a ritual that belonged to the undead: "Naturally, it is the powerful spirit of your friend, I am Ingham Aetholos, these are my compatriots who have come with me and have the same faith, whether we were friends or foes in life, but now we are also the strangest compatriots as deceased." ”
"The strangest compatriot ┉┉Hahaha!"
Hearing this, Arthas laughed, and for a moment Arthas nodded slightly: "I am Arthas, the Lich King, the ruler of the Scourge of the Dead, who has come to purify this ugly world, so tell me your intentions, my strangest compatriot." ”
Purify the world!?
In Ingham, he already knew that these undead were attacking the countries to which the Holy Capital belonged in the west, and although they were now repelled by the Holy Capital, these undead had achieved considerable results in the war at first, and even captured a city and annihilated all the 140,000 troops that the Balleka Kingdom Army had gone to support, and finally most of the members of the Kingdom Army became a source of recruits for this undead army.
The powerful undead named Arthas in front of him was obviously awakened by hatred, and he didn't know what he had experienced before his death that made him hate this world extremely, and the so-called purification can actually be understood as destruction, and it is not uncommon for the undead to be killed with such a hatred mentality in the island of the dead of Athoros for thousands of years.
It's just that these undead with hatred and resentment either rest in peace after completing their wish for revenge, or they are crusaded against and truly return to death, after all, even if the undead are stronger than the living, they are not strong enough to overwhelm everything, and even if they are hateful, they can only finally succumb to reality, but the difference is that the undead named Arthas has a power in his hands that can actually threaten this world.
Ingham felt that if Alsace had originally walked out of the island of Aetholos, he would have been accompanied by many equally cynical spirits with such great power. Although, in some ways, the ambition of purifying the whole world gives a sense of great accomplishment, and the fighting enthusiasm that has been dormant in Ingelham's heart is not lacking in the desire to try. However, the island of the undead of Atholos, who inherited the will of the undead master, is inherently unapproves.
What to do after destroying the whole world? Is it just a bunch of skeletons and dead people who can't reproduce just like this to stand in a daze in a world full of tombstones, and then return to the sea of souls after everyone has exhausted their souls over time, and then the world really enters a lifeless and barren world.
In the eyes of many undead creatures, destroying the world is never their original desire, and most of the undead who come to the island of the dead become undead for research, for power, and to continue to live and observe the world.
Not only Ingham, but also many of the necromancers who came with Ingham did not agree with Arthas's concept of purification, in their opinion, the powerful undead commander must have been lost on the wrong path, and his hatred of the world in his life continued to affect him after his death, and it was also his duty as a compatriot to save these lost compatriots and re-examine the situation and redefine their position in the world.
"I am Fenceni Aetholos, and I beg your pardon for asking the question, what is the purification of the whole world in your heart?"
In the ranks of the undead, a female necromancer walked out and looked directly at Arthas and asked. (To be continued......)
