Chapter 4: The Death Canopy
Chapter 4: The Death Canopy
"What, what's going on?"
Although I don't understand what such a change means, it is human nature to fear the dark, and Yaren, who fell into the darkness all of a sudden, immediately panicked, but fortunately, he only showed it on his face, which was better than ordinary people.
And he didn't do anything like hiding in a corner and huddling in a corner for a sense of security, and shivering, after the initial panic passed, he also cleverly put a level 0 magic lighting spell to light up the dim room, and with the light emitted by the fist-sized light cluster on his hand, he saw the ugly faces of Mino and Conseil, so he asked.
"I don't know if you remember the bard who passed by our village a few months ago, and do you remember the poem he performed at that time?"
In the countryside where there is no entertainment, the bard's performance is a rare entertainment, so as soon as Minoan said it, Yeren immediately remembered it.
"It's a poem about the war of the undead, right, why do you think of asking this?"
"Do you remember one of them?" After asking, Mino didn't wait for Yeren to answer, and read it to himself: "The unjust souls who sleep under the earth, the white bones that yearn for flesh and blood, in this world where the Lord of the Underworld is gone, they come, they come, they are tireless, they bring fear, hot-blooded warriors, in order to protect their homeland, they do their best, they are united, they use their will and faith, they defeat this group of dead slaves!"
"Thus began the feast of celebration, and the warriors began to taste the fruits of victory, and they drank the sweet wine, and they enjoyed the admiration of the maiden, and the whole city cheered loudly for their success!"
"Then darkness fell, and death took off his cloak and turned it into a curtain that obscured the sun and light, and then they came, and they came again, and they were tireless, and they brought fear, and the brave warriors, who did their best, who were united, fell to the ground in the darkness that was opened for the face of death. ”
"Where the darkness is shrouded, where the gods cannot see, the Grim Reaper is laughing, the Grim Reaper is singing, the Grim Reaper is singing loudly surrounded by bones, the endless souls cry out in despair on its sickle, the white terror fills the earth, the beautiful city is reduced to hell on earth, and death will come!"
With Mino's loud chanting, with the background of rolling black clouds, there is really a feeling of breathtaking, especially in this situation where the army of the undead will arrive at some point, the more timid people are afraid that they will be frightened by this very infectious story, Yeren is not so timid, but he still does not understand the meaning of Mino's poem.
"What the hell is in your head, the decision to let you go to a mage apprentice must have been the stupidest decision I've ever made in my life. Seeing his grandson like this, he still didn't understand, so Conseil poked Yeren's head in anger and said.
"Grandpa Conseil, don't say that, Xiaoren's talent is still good, he just focuses on the story. Rescuing Yeren's head from Conseil's men, Mino looked at Yeren and said helplessly: "What we are encountering now is the shady curtain mentioned in the story, a weakened version of the sixth-level undead strategy magic: Death Skydome. ”
"Then aren't we dead, sixth-level magic, and it's also strategic magic, not to mention the exaggerated power it shows in the story, even if we let its releaser come, we will definitely die, sixth-level high-level mage, my God, the highest-level one I've ever seen in my life is only a fourth-level warrior town master." ”
"Don't be so exaggerated, Xiaoren, I really don't know where you've learned all that magic knowledge, have you forgotten the common sense of downgrading the level of the weakened version of the spell casting? If it's a joint spell, maybe only twelve fourth-level spellcasters will do, and even if this kind of large-scale strategic magic is released, it can't be slowed down in three or five days under normal circumstances, I really don't know what you're anxious about." ”
Casting a disdainful look at the frightened Yakren, Mino explained rather speechlessly.
"yes, what am I afraid of, really, Mino, you didn't remind me earlier, so I made a fool of myself in front of my grandfather again. ”
The calm Yeren complained to Mino, looking at this guy's brazen appearance, Mino was about to say something, but he heard a rapid bell coming from the town gate, Mino's face changed, and he ran towards the town gate with Yeren, and Conseil on the side was even more brisk, and he had long since run so much that he couldn't see the shadow.
"Mino, what are you panicking about, grab the weapon first and then go over, do you want to hit the undead with your bare hands? ”
"Shut up, idiot Xiaoren, don't you understand when you see the appearance of the Death Canopy? The army of the undead is here, and if the city wall is breached, we will all die!"
Faced with the night man who was still making a mess at the critical moment, the anxious Mino was rarely angry and yelled at the night man.
Although Mino had already expressed his attitude in this way, instead of speeding up, Yeren pulled the caught off guard Mino, and just when Mino turned around and was about to teach Yeren a lesson, he saw Yeren holding Mino's shoulders with both hands, with a rare serious expression on his face.
"Mino, how much do you think the two of us, a first-level warrior and a level-0 mage apprentice, can play a big role in this kind of battle? I know you are anxious and want to help protect everyone, but we are not the key to this battle, if we rush over now and end up not being able to help because we don't have weapons, that will be the real misfortune, Mino, do you understand?"
After listening carefully to Yeren's words, Mino also knew that he had indeed made a mistake in his busyness, he was just a small first-level warrior, rather than rushing over to join in the fun, it was better to go over after he was fully prepared, so as to contribute his true strength in this battle.
"I'm sorry Xiaoren, I'm in a hurry, you're right, then let's go back and get the weapon now." ”
"It's okay, it's just that I can't help much during the battle, and I'm not as anxious as you, so I can think of this. Seeing that he had always been taught by Mino could actually make Mino solemnly apologize to himself, Yeren touched his head and laughed a little embarrassedly, "By the way, your big sword is too laborious to use, why don't you go to my house and get two ordinary long swords, and I still have the leather armor that my grandfather gave us two, and my grandfather gave it to me last night, saying that the two of us must protect ourselves." ”
Putting on tight leather armor and taking a long sword, the two of them hurried towards the town gate.
The place where the Yeren family lived was closer to the town gate, so it didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the place, because the battle came too suddenly, so the scene was a little panicked for a while, and the two of them went straight to the city wall without command, looking at the undead army outside the town that was dense like a sea of bones, the two opened their mouths in surprise.
