Chapter 365: Alyssa's Request and the Arrival of the Natural Calamity
"Hmm~ the demon is already planning to do something to your parents?"
Alisa nodded and replied bluntly, "Yes, for this reason, I hope to help my parents get out of danger according to the contract." β
Then Alyssa told the demon about impersonating herself and using this plan to try to lure her mother and eldest princess to the Golden Spike Territory, and at the same time, Alyssa also clarified her thoughts, and sent the warning letter to her parents with the help of Baloas, anyway, the 'self' in the Golden Spike Territory is just an impostor, even if her parents don't fool the female demon, there is nothing she can do.
Lelouch habitually crossed his hands and thought for a while, Elisa's Westphalia family has a pivotal role in the Bellama Kingdom, and it also occupies a place in the Free City, obviously those demons have also been playing the idea of the Elisa family, but it seems that the impostors in the Golden Spike Territory may not be able to leave for some reason, otherwise the demons should be using her to break into the upper echelons of the Bellama Kingdom, instead of forcing the Westphalian family and the royal family to fish for people under huge pressure now.
"Show me your letter?"
Elisa handed the letter to Lelouch without objection, and carefully studied the letter of a few sentences, obviously Elisa persuaded her mother and princess to come to the Golden Spike Territory in the most concise way, and stated that she would never leave herself alone in any danger, and the content did not reveal anything about the demons of the Golden Spike Territory and the Arnold Mountains.
After making sure that it was correct, Lelouch turned his gaze to Buyani and asked, "Buyani, can you tell the devil?"
"It's easy for ordinary demons. After all, demons are incompatible with the present world, and anyone with a little sense can find that they are alien beings. It's just ββ" Buyani said here and shrugged helplessly: "If it's a demon with strong concealment like a human-faced parasite, it's not easy to distinguish, at least I need to directly contact the parasite for careful inspection." β
"It seems to be very troublesome, is there any other way to pass this letter on to your family?"
"There is my family's chamber of commerce in the Free City, but I am worried that it will be too late in case my mother or Her Royal Highness the princess has already set off. β
Alisa's mother, Lady Angelina, is the king's cousin and one of the pillars of the Vestafalianian family, and controlling her is equivalent to indirectly controlling the entire Westphalian family, which is absolutely not allowed for Lelouch to gain a foothold in the Free City with the help of the power of the Vestafalianian family. Now the demons entrenched in the Golden Spike territory and the Arin in the Arnold Mountains have seized each other's grips and are in a situation where they have to cooperate. And a big failure on either side, whether it is caused by the other party or not, will lead to a situation that will lead to a breakthrough. That is to say, even if you want to secretly attack, you must be within the acceptable range of the other party, otherwise you will end up together.
It only takes a year to maintain this situationββ
Lelouch recalled the conditions given by Yalin, but he could not wait a year now, and it was best to temporarily delay Elisa's mother and the princess of the Kingdom of Belrama from going to the Golden Spike Territory. Anyway, it only takes a year, and you don't need to think about the demon's situation.
"Rob~ Can you sneak into Baloas's mansion?"
"It's easy. β
Lelouch turned his gaze back to Elisa, "Is there a token that proves that you are a member of House Westphalia?"
"I'm afraid there's only this necklace. It was given to me by my mother on my birthday. There is a family coat of arms. Alyssa said as she removed the amethyst necklace around her neck. When Silvador broke into the envoy's mansion with a demon, Alyssa fled in a hurry with the help of two Golden Saints, leaving behind all important items except for what she was wearing.
"That's it. Lelouch nodded: "Tribulation." I don't care what method you use to kidnap Baloas alive for me. β
"Understood. β
"Buyani, when the time comes, you will be in charge of examining Baloas, and if you are sure that there are no demons in his body, give him the necklace and the letter, so that he can quickly leave the Golden Spike Territory and hand it over to Alyssa's mother. β
Buyani nodded that it was okay, but then asked, "What if he has a demon parasite in his body?"
So he gave the letter and the necklace to Baloas. β
Lelouch smiled darkly, took out a pen and paper and wrote, Alisa casually glanced at the letter written by Lelouxiu, and suddenly this usually calm and decisive businesswoman couldn't help but have a bitter and helpless face. The letter actually portrayed Buyani and Zai as the guards of the Westphalian family, who were ordered to investigate the reason for their detention in the Golden Spike Territory, and then accidentally found the necklace that was lost outside the city, and then became suspicious of the situation of 'himself' in the envoy's mansion, and wondered if the real 'self' had been killed, and the mansion was now just a fake person.
Obviously, this Lelouch Lampeluki is ready to throw the cauldron directly at the Westphalian family when the situation is not right, and Baloas will also become an innocent victim. Alyssa can imagine that if Baloas was really parasitized by the demon and let the demon know the news that the family suspected that he might be dead, it is estimated that he would be the first person to be killed, and then the demon would probably let the 'self' in the envoy's mansion come out to perform and continue to be blinded, and then he would speed up the control of his family.
Sighing Alyssa is also helpless, if Baloas has really been parasitized, then then the only way to inform his parents is through the family chamber of commerce in the free city, but I don't know if the world is too late.
Buyani took the letter and necklace and turned around and left with a spatial displacement, LeBlanc was a little puzzled, wouldn't it be better if she wanted to get the aristocratic young man named Baloas out and let Buyani, who was the crystal dragon, go alone?
Lelouch chuckled and gave LeBlanc a desperate answer, acting must be like a real thing.
===================================
On the western border of the continent, a large army is silently approaching a border post, without torches, without supplies, or even without a sound. The army of the dead with blue flames shining in their pupils formed a long and narrow river, drowning the passing one!
"Look at that!what?"
The guards in the outpost had already discovered the gradual blue torrent, several guards were concentrated on the city wall and looked at the army of undead gradually spreading in the distance, after the first lighting magic lifted into the air, everyone almost gasped! Densely packed with skeletons and zombies holding various weapons, many of them were interspersed with the corpses of many beasts, and some huge giant-like figures in the back were gradually approaching.
"O High God, how did these undead end up here?"
"Quickly pull the alarm and immediately notify the garrison of the war!"
The guards fell into chaos in an instant, and the garrison officer had already ordered the outpost to abandon and retreat immediately, even if you think about it with your ass, you know that it is completely foolish for this outpost with only a few dozen people to hold on to resistance, and it is estimated that it will not take ten minutes for the outpost to be swallowed up by this huge army of undead, and now in this situation, even if you abandon the battle and flee, you will not be held accountable, and it is the most important thing to bring the news back.
When the guards tried to escape from the outpost, the front flank of the undead army had already begun to charge, except for the shock caused by trampling on the ground, the entire army was silent, there was no shout, no slogan, like a silent dead man, which made all the guards breed endless fear in their hearts.
If you are killed here, your soul and body will be enslaved by the necromancer, and you will become one of these undead!
The outpost was equipped with only a few horses and a small number of wagons for transporting goods, and dozens of guards could not ride them all, and some of the guards who did not have a chance to board the carriage had already abandoned their weapons and fled like crazy towards the nearby hills, hoping not to be discovered by the undead. It's just that when many flying demonic beasts in the sky that have turned into bones instigate bone wings that glow with blue glow to rush towards them, everyone understands that no one can escape the clutches of death tonight.
The screams suddenly pierced the night sky, and some of the guards desperately took up arms to resist, but in the face of this torrent of undead, a few drops of water had no effect at all, and it was quiet again after only a few minutes.
Soon, dozens of bloodied corpses stood up again, numbly picking up the weapons that had fallen on the ground and joining the army of the undead who had taken their lives.
The army of the undead entered the abandoned outpost, taking some of the remaining weapons and armor except for the food, as well as a qiΔ of supplies, and finally the undead even completely dismantled the entire outpost and transported it back to the carriage drawn by the skeleton warhorse, and found a detailed map of the area in the outpost, and a skeleton soldier holding the map around the traveling companion respectfully delivered the map to the Lich King in the center of the legion.
Arthas opened the map and took a cursory look, and then the undead dark warrior beside him quickly explained it to his master after a few glances. The Commander of the Scourge Legion nodded and pointed vigorously in one direction, and suddenly the entire Scourge army quickly turned around as fast as it could and rushed towards a town indicated on the map, spreading death and suffering to the living who lived there, and making them one of their own.
Soon, these spirits will send greetings from the dead to this land favored by the five supreme gods! (To be continued......
