Chapter 386: The Enemy Is Food (Part I)
[The second watch, there is another watch]
Nellis's thoughts. Rex didn't know that she didn't release the demon legion, the twelve movements of purgatory, it took a lot of energy to open it once, and the entry and exit of ten thousand demons made Nellis feel tired.
After asking for the badge, Naris asked for two necromancers, as well as a lot of magic liquid, and she didn't use the way of flying, but rode a skeleton war horse to the Three Links City.
Although Nellis misses Saleen a lot, she doesn't show it this time. It was only before he was leaving that he sent a letter to Salin.
"Sister Shika gave it to you, when you are alone at night, you have to watch it secretly. ”
Seeing Nellis leave, Saleen also had a complicated feeling in his heart. You can only move forward, not backward. Because there are so many people who have to rely on themselves, Nellis is just the most complicated of them.
Saleen and Rex, on their part, continue to prepare for the wedding, and now they are in the rehearsal stage. The king's wedding, of course, can't be casual, and many court rules must be followed. Fortunately, the kingdom of Metatrin in Saleen is newly built. The rules of the court were only a few tenths of those of the Qin Yin Empire.
Putting aside the matter of Daliang City, Neris took two necromancers and more than four hundred undead knights all the way to Sanlian City.
The land occupied by Rex is the best part of Calulan. A large area of plains with hundreds of crops that can be grown. More than 600 miles west from Daliang City, there is a mountain range in front of it.
Here, there is a pass in Rex, and there are only more than 10,000 elites stationed, and the rest of the more than 20,000 people are auxiliaries. Neris did not stop here, but crossed the pass and continued westward, heading straight for the three cities.
She has the badges, seals, rings that Rex gave her, and now the official reinforcements of the Triple City. The formalities are complete, and there is no obstacle to passing the customs.
After this pass, it is a 500-mile plain, and there is no danger to defend. If the city is lost, then this land will be given to the Tangulas. Rex drove the Tangulas out of the Triple City, but at the cost of nearly 100,000 casualties. Most of the wounded soldiers could no longer serve as soldiers and had to go back to farming.
Neris is full of energy, and the necromancer doesn't rest much, and is surrounded by undead knights. The group ran thousands of miles and came to a place more than 100 miles outside Sanlian City. The Triple City was not a pass, and a small force of the Tangulas would also appear to the east, and Neris stopped.
She said to the two fourth-level undead archmages: "You two, guard for me, I will release the demon legion, and if you meet people from the Tanggulas Empire, use the scroll, don't be stingy." ”
"Yes, Mistress Neris. "The two great magicians were very respectful to Neris.
Neris smiled slightly, the scales on her face had grown, and her body swelled rapidly. The undead retreated one after another, and the feeling of these undead for the breath of the demon god was much stronger than that of humans.
In the blink of an eye, Nerice's body has expanded to a height of more than twenty meters, and the demon god incarnation, even if it can't improve Neris's special ability, but in terms of strength, it is already beyond the reach of humans.
The Twelve Movements of Purgatory open, and Neris summons the demon out of the black door with demonic language. The eyes of the two undead archmages straightened.
The demons were very disciplined, and when they came out, they followed the officers and lined up in a rectangular line. The undead knights scattered, on alert. After the demon general walked out, he knelt in front of Neris and waited for orders.
Naris took out the badges, battle flags, and the bow and crossbow that Rex had prepared, and distributed them to the demons to equip. Without these magic markers, the garrison of the Three Cities would not dare to let them enter the city even if they were informed in advance by Rex.
Necromancers are very bold, and when they see so many demons, they quickly adapt to it. The demons that Neris chose were all four or five meters tall, except for horns, scales, and tails, the rest were very similar to humans. The demons wore uniform armor and began to equip the badge at the position of their chest.
These badges are all magical equipment, and their only function is to show their identity, and they cannot be imitated.
The demons were locked up in the twelve movements of purgatory, and they were already a little sluggish, and Neris and the other demons were all assembled, and they were ordered to rest and eat on the spot.
The demons sat down one after another, grabbing the demon worm from the large leather pouch they carried with them and swallowing it. If the demon is not injured, he can basically eat it once every half a month to maintain his physical strength. But the amount of food eaten at one time is a hundred times more than that of humans. If you eat human food, the logistics of the demon legion are also a problem, almost three times the consumption of maintaining one person.
However, considering the demon's strong survivability, such a consumption is still acceptable.
Because of the material, the six types of Demon God Armor were simplified by Saleen to create a low-level version of the Demon God Flying Armor. This kind of armor can fly simply, it consumes a fourth-level magic core, the flight height is only sixty meters, and the distance is pitifully short, in fact, it is to cross obstacles such as city walls.
10,000 demons, the fourth-level demon cores distributed are 60,000, and if you want to make soldiers have combat effectiveness, investment in equipment is essential.
After the demons finished eating, they simply rested, and in less than two hours, they regained their strength. If humanity were to be confined to the Twelve Movements of Purgatory, it would take more than half a day to fully recover.
After recovering their strength, the demon army immediately set off and rushed to Sanlian City, a distance of more than a hundred miles. It's not too far for humans either. The human beings on the plane of the Myers continent have no baggage, and if they are just infantry marching in a hurry, they can maintain a speed of ten miles without rest, and hold on for half a day.
If it were a human being in the subcontinent plane, the physical fitness would not be so strong.
The demons used their legs to travel twenty miles per hour, like demonic beasts, and it took more than five hours to come to the area of Sanlian City. The three cities are less than 20 miles apart, and they are all built according to the topography. A lot of manpower and material resources were saved during construction. These three cities were actually built from a series of hills.
The distance between them is less than 20 miles, that is, they can support each other at any time. Neris went straight to the city in the middle, but it was the two necromancers and two hundred undead knights leading the way.
In the west there was a large army of the Tangulas, and in the east there were small forces of the enemy, and the scouts of the city never stopped patrolling the area. Because the image of the demon legion was too terrifying, the small force of the Tangulas did not attempt to harass. When the scouts of Sanlian City saw this army, even if they were prepared, their legs were weak.
These scouts are also elite soldiers, but it is the first time they have seen so many demons, and they naturally have fear. The main reason is that Neris has changed into the incarnation of the demon god. The image of the demon god more than twenty meters tall is too terrifying in the eyes of these soldiers.
Fortunately, the formalities were complete and the order was given in advance, so the scouts did not make a fool of themselves, but suppressed the fear in their hearts, and took this undead army into the Sanlian City.
The main general of Sanlian City, but he is a nobleman. This nobleman is only a third-class marquis, and now he is in command of hundreds of thousands of horses, which is absolutely overstepping. However, Rex is not so many people who are easy to use, this marquis is loyal and outstanding, and he is arranged in Sanlian City, so there is absolutely no problem for him to defend the city.
If this marquis is allowed to attack, it may not be enough.
Nellis, a demon legion, entered the city and caused a sensation in the three cities. The marquis asked for help, and Daliang City sent 100,000 reinforcements, but the marquis still felt that it was difficult to defend. Originally, the distance between the three cities was particularly close, and they could use cavalry to support each other, but the Holy See sent a large number of blood knights, and in the field battle, only heavy cavalry and heavy infantry in Kushui County would not suffer too much.
After several battles, the losses were not small, and the 100,000 reinforcements were only about half a month longer.
The arrival of Nellis. Let the Marquis see hope. He heard that there was a demon army, at first he was afraid, and then he was a little excited, compared to the demons, the Holy See is a more terrifying existence.
If the Holy See's army is allowed to enter the Kushui County, it will not take many years to cultivate a large number of believers. Those who do not believe in God will be burned to death, and their children, there will always be ignorant ones, who will join the Holy See, and after two generations, a large number of churches will spring up in this land.
This is a holy war, and the people of the Holy See will use the bloodiest means to transform the enemy, instead of relying on probation, and carry out this kind of thing slowly.
The marquis did not want his son and grandson to become believers, so he preferred to fight to the death rather than back down.
This is also the idea of most nobles in Qin Yin, look at the Tanggulas Empire, the nobles have long been out of glory.
Despite his mental preparation, the Marquis felt a pang of weakness at the sight of the image of Neris. He is already a talent among the nobility, and his own combat effectiveness is also rare. A would-be Juggernaut.
Nellis's body exudes an incomparably powerful aura, and behind her, there is a square demon army.
Neris lowered her head and said to the Marquis who greeted her, "Marquis, your name!"
"Ferdinand. The Marquis swallowed, and Nerice's voice had been suppressed as much as possible, still making him a little uncomfortable. This giant demon can speak the language of humans? That's easy.
"I need a square to house the army, they don't need barracks, they don't need beds, just a level ground. This is the blueprint ......" Neris said, throwing a magic blueprint to the Marquis Ferdinand, and said, "Build me some toilets, demons like to eat meat, if you don't build this, your people, I'm afraid they won't be able to stand the smell of demons." ”
As soon as Nellis said this, the Marquis of Ferdinand became more and more distracted, are demons also emotional, and they are also thoughtful about their human soldiers. There is no need to build a special camp, just a group of demon toilets, which is much easier than you think.
"Ferdinand, my army, will not hurt your soldiers, but because of the supply is a bit difficult, they may eat some enemies, so you need to be prepared. ”
Ferdinand's face suddenly became a little ugly, eating enemies?
