Chapter 21: Side Story: Encircling and Suppressing Necromancers

The next morning-

"Let me introduce you, this is a new partner who has joined us, and you will have to get along well in the future. Garucis pointed to the nightingale and said to Andrea.

"Hello, I'm Nightingale. "The smiling nightingale is now in the form of a blonde girl with a single ponytail.

Seriously, Gallucis once again felt that Lorain's decision to resurrect her was very wise. When the nightingale was still a human, it had the ability to change the appearance of the people it had seen, and after becoming a monster, this ability was further enhanced, and it was even able to grasp some of the power of the people it changed.

Although she is still very weak now, the achievements of the nightingale will definitely not be small in time...... The main thing is that as a monster, she is now absolutely loyal to Garusis, which is the most important reason.

"Uh...... Hello, I'm Andrea. Andrea, who had just woken up, replied in a daze, completely unaware that the woman had stabbed herself not long ago.

Garusis glanced at her, "Haven't you woken up yet? ”

"Eh!?no, I haven't washed yet~!!" Andrea said this, and hurriedly ran to the bathroom.

Galusis glanced at the clock showing 7:13 in the morning, and sighed silently, "I'm just saying that, stupid human......"

β€œ...... Please don't laugh at the group. "Ellis as a human feels a lot of pressure.

As mentioned before, it takes nearly 36 hours to fly from Sestara City to Angola City, and Gallusis and the others took the flying boat yesterday afternoon...... Hehe.

......

[Passengers, the imperial capital of Angola City has arrived, thank you for taking this flight, please don't forget your luggage ......]

In the early hours of the third day, the airship arrived in Angola City.

Unlike Istanbulville, Angola City tends to be a rustic city with its ancient architecture, and the ancient architecture that can be seen everywhere bears witness to the history of this ancient city.

Angola City was the capital of the old Duroc Empire, and the Black King slaughtered all the Duroc royal family without causing much damage to the city's buildings. Lena Godzilla Ripott, the head of House Report, rose up shortly thereafter and quickly seized control of the city of Angola, using it as a base to conquer the world, eventually establishing the vast Sistconian Empire.

"Let's find a hotel to stay in first, and then find a way to investigate. Galusis, who was leading the chocobo, decided, "Lorraine, what's the best hotel here?" ”

"The most luxurious hotel here is [Resplendent Lux], but I personally think the dΓ©cor is too tacky and only suitable for the rich nouveau riche. Rather than there, I recommend Rezering, which is located in the southern part of the outer city. ”

"I don't care about this kind of thing, you just have to make up your mind. As he spoke, he looked at a certain girl who was following behind him without saying a word, "...... I said, "You've been angry since yesterday?"

"I'm not angry. "The sound of the bulging is not like it.

So Garucis decided to ignore her for the time being...... Sure enough, it didn't take long for her to lose her anger, and she turned her grief and anger into appetite and ate it hard.

......

After destroying nearly ten villages, Lix was finally found by the soldiers of Sisgonia.

And as

"Free Fire!"

Dense mana bullets continued to harvest one undead creature after another, and even the most difficult wraiths of the past were reduced to ashes under the onslaught of bullets.

So many undead creatures that Lix had worked so hard to accumulate were once again reimbursed for more than half.

"Don't let that necromancer run away, pursuit!"

In order to eliminate Rix, the military of Sisconia deliberately gathered thousands of elite soldiers of the Empire, although they grew up in peacetime and did not have much actual combat experience, they could not stand their well-equipped.

Unlike small and remote cities like Fox City, their equipment is the latest weapon improved by the Royal Alchemy Society, and both the power and accuracy of their shooting have been greatly improved.

"You're going to pay the price......" Rix, who was in the rear, muttered with a cold face, until the soldiers had advanced the heretic distance before she suddenly gave the order, "Now, attack!"

The clearing where there were only a few undead creatures left suddenly distorted, and then a large number of bone racks and dried corpses occupied everyone's field of vision.

Unlike the previous cannon fodder, the undead creatures this time are a hybrid combination of a relatively high-level corpse witch and a skeleton knight.

With Rix's order, the Skeleton Knight charged at the soldiers of Sisconia. The corpse witches in the back row also began to chant incantations that no one understood.

The next moment, an overwhelming cloud of rubble wrapped in flames fell.

However, the commander of the opposing side was obviously prepared: "Unfold the magic shield! Squat down in the front row with bayonets, and exchange loose ammunition in the back row! Prepare-"

The blue translucent spherical barrier unfurled one after another, resisting the rain of fire that was constantly falling. Facing the skeletal knights charging fiercely, they fearlessly raised their magic spears in their hands.

"Shoot!"

Bang, bang, bang!

The Skeleton Knights were greeted by a stream of scattered mana, sacrificing range in exchange for a small-area dense attack, and even the hollow Skeleton Knights could only be reduced to pieces. Even if there were those who survived, they were blocked by the soldiers at the front with their own bodies.

Having eliminated the Skeleton Knight, the remaining Corpse Witch is nothing to fear.

The Sisconian soldiers picked up their magic spears and continued to shoot as they slowly approached the corpse witches, one after another shattering the center where the soul fire gathered...... That is, the head, which turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.

"No way, how could I lose!?" Rix clearly didn't expect this to be the case. The other party is obviously just some ordinary humans, but why are they able to defeat their own undead army!?

The difference in equipment between the two sides has led to the current result, and a necromancer who is out of touch with society is doomed to fail even if he has a spirit costume.

At this moment, the spirit costume [Ode to Death] in Rix's hand trembled, and then a death knight appeared beside her, and without saying a word, he picked her up on his mount and fled into the distance without looking back.

The ghoul Erifin was stunned for a moment, and quickly chased after him with all fours.

"Are you...... Who?" Rix looked at the Death Knight, her eyes filled with doubt.

This is obviously one of the Death Knights she made, but her Death Knight should have only been made for a long time, and it is impossible for her to be self-aware...... So, what's going on?
