Chapter 387
"How's the situation in the capital?" Bradley asked the tiger, even though the tiger didn't look normal, but he still had to ask.
Tiger paused, as if to take time to understand what Bradley meant. Then make a movement, roll your eyes, stretch your tongue, and lay on the ground with your legs kicked. In a moment, the tiger crawled up again.
When Bradley saw this, he couldn't help but be shocked, could it be...... But when I thought about it, I thought it was unlikely. The strength of his entourage is not bad, and there is a tiger on the side, even if he can't beat it, he should be able to escape. And there don't seem to be any scars on the tiger's body, although it seems to be very expensive, but the battle should not be as fierce as imagined.
Maybe the tiger meant that the other party was all dead? Bradley thought for a moment, and then asked in a different way: "How is my entourage?"
The tiger thought about it for a long time, and then pretended to be dead again.
"Is it said that my retinue is dead, or is the enemy dead?" said Bradley, a little surprised.
The tiger nodded, shook his head again, and then lay down on his stomach again.
Bradley's heart trembled, which clearly meant that his retinue Robles was dead. It's just that this sudden bad news is really a little unbelievable. In addition, there are no scars on the tiger's body, the battle should not be too intense, and the stupid appearance of the tiger when he appears, it can't help but make Bradley wonder if there is a problem with the tiger's ability to understand, or a problem with his ability to express?
"Deputy Commander!" Bradley shouted as he turned around.
The deputy head of the regiment hurriedly trotted over, bowed his head and followed the instructions.
"Send two owls and take a trip to the capital," Bradley waved his hand, "to find out what's going on, mainly to find my retinue Robles, and of course a bunch of dragon knights!"
"Yes!" the deputy head hurriedly went to arrange.
Looking back at the tiger, the tiger's belly rumbled at the right time, and it itself lowered its head, looking listless.
Bradley was angry in his heart, and when things were messing up, he was still hungry. But after thinking about it, after all, it consumes a lot of combat, and there is always no shortage of food that should be given.
"Deputy Commander!" Bradley called back to the Deputy Commander, "Go back and get it something to eat." After saying that, he went straight into the house.
"Yes!" the deputy head bowed his head, waiting for Bradley to leave, before turning his head to look at the big tiger.
The big tiger also looked at him, and then opened his mouth: "Ah......" as if waiting for someone to feed him.
The deputy head of the regiment is sweaty, where can I find food for it at this stall? This kind of top-notch demonic beast has an amazing amount of food, and it also hunts other large demonic beasts in its habitat, while ordinary domestic animals, cattle and sheep can only be used as a snack at most. And the airship that originally came to transport supplies was hijacked by the small spoon and crashed directly, and the dragon knight's pterodactyl should have rations, but Van Mill was not there, and the deputy head of one of his reconnaissance regiments did not know where the rations were.
If you ask the local kobolds to collect, but at this time the kobold city lord is killed, and the city is in chaos, where can I find someone to collect? Could it be that the detective mages eat vegetarian collectively and leave the meat for the tiger to eat?
In desperation, he could only buy it from a nearby caravan, and the deputy head of the regiment was not in charge of finances. The finances of their reconnaissance group were directly taken care of by the regiment commander, and as a result, the regiment commander ran away and swept away all the money by the way. The deputy head of the regiment could only pay out of his own pocket and bought three pigs to come back.
Unexpectedly, this tiger was quite particular about eating, and his paws cut open the pig's belly, threw out the intestines, and threw it aside from eating. Then the mouth breathes flames, roasts all three pigs, and lies down to enjoy them slowly. After eating, licking your mouth, and then lying down to sleep, this life looks really pleasant.
And Bradley has another important task at this time, that is, what the necromancer left behind must not be leaked! Although the current battle situation seems to be a complete defeat, Bradley's supreme combat power has not been damaged, which in itself means that there is still room for counterattack. Or at least salvage something.
Pack your things and set off on your own. Bradley didn't tell the deputy head the inside story, even the head of the regiment ran away, and the deputy head couldn't be fully trusted, not to mention that his rank couldn't know these things in the first place. It's just that before leaving, let him know that he's gone.
The deputy head of the regiment was nervous for a while, and he seemed to be the same when he remembered that the regiment commander was running away. Could it be that the Juggernaut is also preparing to run away? If you think about it, it seems that it is possible. If the Juggernaut also ran away, should he ......
The deputy head of the regiment kicked in his heart and watched Bradley go away. Then go back and pack up your things, and if the head of the regiment is not there, then all the responsibility will have to be borne by him. This responsibility is huge, and it is a responsibility that cannot be escaped if it fails to rescue the airship on the surface. Secretly, there are even more, the kobold city lord supported by the city was assassinated, the airport was attacked, and the rebel main city was captured, not to mention that he stupidly regarded the little spoon as the wife of the regiment commander, and treated her with respect.
Looking back now, I feel like a pure idiot. If Bradley knew all the truth, he wouldn't be able to cut himself to death. The difference in strength between the two is too big, and if you want to bet on Bradley's softness, it is better to bet on your own legs and feet.
Gather your subordinates and redistribute the owl's reconnaissance range, leaving yourself a blind spot for retreat. Then he dismissed his subordinates, packed up his things, changed into civilian clothes, lowered his hat, and quietly went out.
As a result, the napping tiger lying at the door suddenly opened one eye, and the deputy head of the regiment was shocked, pressed his hat lower, and almost bent over. The tiger did not react otherwise, and after a few moments, closed its eyes and continued to nap.
The deputy head of the regiment breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the main city, and began to run wildly.
At the same time, the ambassador and others had returned to their embassy, and the heavy rain that had been falling for several days had finally stopped. However, when I finally came back here, I didn't even bother to change my clothes and went straight to the basement.
Everyone hurriedly put the female corpse on Sain's back on the bed and covered it with a quilt. Then immediately set up a water system circle around it, trying to return to the temperature in the ice storage at that time. This kind of temperature needs to be finely adjusted to control the spacing, size, and so on of the magic circle crystals, which is not something that ordinary people can achieve by casting spells with their bare hands. Because there is a large error in freehand casting, this is also the reason why it must be memorized first.
At this time, the female corpse's body was soft, but her nosebleeds were incessant. There was no heartbeat or breath at all, but it didn't look like a dead person at all. This situation is beyond the common sense of everyone, and everyone dare not slack off.
While supervising the situation of the circle, the ambassador wrote a report on the situation and sent it back to China through the telecommunication array, asking for answers to his questions.
The teleportation array flashed with white light, and the reply from the country came quickly, and everyone hurriedly gathered to watch.
"With current technology, it is impossible to resurrect the dead! Even at the time of the Second Holy War, when necromancy was at its peak, there was no such thing as resurrection. The more powerful the high-end strength, the more aware of this, there are many deceptions that use resurrection as bait, or literary creations with necromancers as the protagonists, making resurrection a very casual skill. ”
"Know that eternal life is one of the most tempting and the pursuits of almost all people. If necromancers could really resurrect people, which was equivalent to a form of eternal life, everyone would have turned to necromancers long ago. Wouldn't it be invincible if two necromancers resurrected each other, and as for the need for sacrifices or something, as long as the spell actually worked, none of that was a problem. The strong can even directly captive a country as a sacrifice. ”
Unfortunately, the resurrection does not exist. The zombies, skeletons, and ghosts summoned by the necromancer do not have their own consciousness, and they are all marionettes of the necromancer. It is important to know that necromancy is a spell of 'death', and a spell of light is a spell of 'life'. In addition, the soul is also divided into 'life' and 'death', the soul manipulated by the necromancer is dead, the dead soul is like a corpse, but the corpse will also retain part of the muscle memory, and in a few cases, it will react when stimulated, and the soul is the same. Once the right stimulus is present, some of the behaviors that pre-mortem will occur. ”
"On the contrary, light spells can work on living souls. For many people whose bodies are newly dead, but whose souls are still alive, light spells can intervene instead. And the necromancer can only kill the soul first, and then control the dead soul to pretend to be a living liar. This is also one of the reasons why the Church of Light can spread all over the continent today, because they do have a role in life and death. ”
"All in all, resurrection spells can't exist, and the principle of this is not something that can be explained clearly on a few pieces of paper. There are only two possibilities for your female corpse, first: she was originally alive, but she was frozen and put into shock, and entered a state of suspended animation. Necromancers have a special way of cultivating, that is, approaching death themselves, to gain an increase in death spells. So it can also be inferred that she is a necromancer herself. ”
"Second: she's a corpse. It's just that it was made like a living person by the necromancer through technology. In fact, this technique has also been studied back then, and it has become a faction within the necromancer, and making the dead infinitely close to the living is itself one of the criteria for judging the strength of this faction. ”
"It's up to you to judge the specifics of the situation since we're no longer here. But she is very important, whether she is dead or alive, to bring her back to the country as much as possible, and if she cannot complete the task, to destroy her. ”
After reading the reply, everyone looked at each other, and then looked at the female corpse. Sain suddenly laughed: "So, she may be alive? I found the treasure?"
"If you find a treasure, you have to hand it over to the state. The ambassador poured cold water on him.
Sain didn't care, he was still enjoying himself somewhere, and suddenly regretted it again: "It's a pity, I picked up one." Tell each of you to carry one on your back, and see if you're losing a lot now, right?"
Everyone: "......"
"And what now?" said Spoon, changing the subject, "Do you want to try to wake her up?"
The ambassador still shook his head: "What if she is really a necromancer and wants to kill someone when she wakes up? What if she summons the Church of Light? There are still many questions, and the best way is to transport her back to China as she is." It's just that the current situation ......"
"By the way," Xiao Jiu suddenly remembered, "If she is also a necromancer, will she also play Honor of the Dead?"
The ambassador was stunned and hurriedly opened the shaman's diary again. It stands to reason that this female corpse is the most beautiful one that Sain selected, maybe this is called a diary, which is actually a game guide, and one or two will be mentioned.
Here, Jack suddenly spoke: "No, we're missing people!"
"Ahh ”
Jack nodded: "That's right, the number of people is not symmetrical." ”
On the other side, Bradley had come to the cave alone. This was originally a den of the gnolls, and it seems that the gnolls are dead, and there are many footprints on the ground, and there are obviously a lot of people here. sighed in his heart, I just hope that no one can see through this trick of space spells.
The necromancer had indeed withdrawn, and the others had long since left, except for the kobold shaman himself, who insisted on staying. It was supposed to take important information with you, but some things were not so easy to bring, especially the special identity of a necromancer.
There are dead and living people inside the freezer. Necromancers also have to train new people, and sometimes when they see some good seedlings, they immediately catch them and develop into new necromancers. Now that the necromancer is facing withdrawal, it is difficult for the newcomer necromancer to act directly with him, and he is not at ease to stay, and the living cannot be put into the space ring. All of them are frozen, and it is also helpless to stay in another space.
Bradley knows the seriousness of the matter, and the rookie necromancer knows most of the inside story, as well as high-end secrets. At the same time, their loyalty is not enough, many people are resistant to necromancy, and their cultivation is forced. Once this kind of person is released, almost all the secrets here will be exposed, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
There was a commotion in the cave, and Bradley crept over to find that it was several national observers who were still arguing here.
"What are you doing?" said Bradre.
"Oh, old general. "Everyone still respects the old general. Then the individual began to talk about the story of this place, from following the ambassador Lou Pauler to here, and then the ambassador broke through the space and took away a corpse. They also wanted to go in and have a look, but because of their lack of strength, they kept arguing.
Bradley's face was solemn: "Who else knows the situation here?"
"There are a few more, but they have already returned. Someone replied.
Bradley's brows deepened: "Except for Lou Paule, who else took the corpse inside?"
Everyone looked left and right, and they all shook their heads.
"Old general, since you're here, why don't you take us in to have a look? We, as an observer group, also want to see and see. "Someone cautiously proposed.
"No need. The purple light flashed in Bradley's hand, and in just an instant, the blood in the cave was soaring, and everyone's facial expressions didn't have time to change, and they were already in a different place.
Raising his hand to open the space, Bradley entered. In the freezer, the corpse pieces and items are still neatly placed, but the place where the "corpse" is hung is indeed missing a "female corpse".
"It's still her. Bradley sighed, "It looks like it can only be ......"
He walked out of the cave with a silent face and shook it with his backhand. The observers of the several countries who were killed, let's treat it as an accident, anyway, they can't do anything about the empire. And as for Lou Pauler......
"General, general, our deputy commander is also gone. One of the scout mages even went out of the city and hurried to report.
Bradley: "......"
"General?" the Scout mage nervous.
Bradley spoke: "Take all the owls you have left, and keep an eye on the embassy of Lou Pauler." Also, send your men around the embassy to set up formations and confine the space. Disable the information transfer array inside. ”
"Yes!" the Detective Mage wanted to ask, "...... our deputy head of the regiment?"
Bradley just glanced at him.
The mage bowed his head: "Yes, I'll do it right away." ”
In the evening, Little Spoon finally pried open the deflated chariot and freed Start. Start kept complaining, listening to the voice that the war had been over for a long time, why did he come to save him now?
A moment later, even Kevin returned. It's just that he didn't bring the little tiger, after all, the little tiger is too big now, and there is no place to hide it, so let it stay where it is. The Lou Pauler National Observer Group finally gathered, and everyone returned intact in such a large-scale battle, and most of them had achieved outstanding results, which was gratifying.
After a long day's work, everyone was very tired, but now they settled down and rested early. Although the number of owls around him has obviously increased, he didn't care much, after all, the empire was deflated this time, and he had to find something to come out.
"General, they all slept. "The mages are still very dedicated to report to Bradley.
Bradley just sat at his desk, nodding silently, writing a few long pages in his hand. It introduces the whole story, states the stakes, and......
"General!" a scout mage hurried up, "the capital has information! Your retinue is ...... Already ......"
The pen in Bradley's hand was cut off, and the detective mage was startled, and he didn't dare to say anything more.
After a long time, Bradley waved his hand, and the recon mage bowed his head and retreated. Changed a pen and continued to write: and petitioned for permission to destroy the embassy of Lou Pauler to ensure that the core necromancy would not be leaked.
After writing it, put it on the teleportation array, and send it back to China. Bradley didn't go to rest, just sat and waited alone. Normally, Robles would persuade him to rest, but now there was only one person left.
The night was long, sitting alone, listening to the sound of insects outside the window, listening to the sound of his own breathing, thinking a lot, but he was in a trance. Before you know it, the sky has brightened, and today it is finally no longer raining, and the sun is shining.
In the teleportation array, a white light flashed. The Imperial Order has arrived, two words: "Agreed." ”
