In a dark corner a hundred meters away from the wall of fire, the black chariot stood still in the night, and the beating light of the fire had become extremely dim when it fell, but it could still reflect the dead man's white face in front of the car.

Leper Jiu stood beside the chariot, his black robe clinging to his body in the night wind, looking like a skeleton wrapped in black cloth.

There was a low-lying dirt pit behind the chariot, and the heavy rain in the afternoon caused sewage to accumulate more than half a meter deep in the dirt pit, and in the middle of the turbid water, there were more than 30 corpses of blood skeleton warriors.

Judging from their clothing, these Blood Skull warriors were obviously not ordinary demon soldiers. They are taller and have thicker limbs, and even when they are dead, they give people a shocking sense of oppression.

Leper Jiu stared at the corpse in the puddle, his miserable green eyes gradually revealed a greedy light, he stretched out his long scarlet tongue and licked his dry lips, and slowly walked towards the middle of the puddle, with the movement of his footsteps, a black mist suddenly appeared around his body, the black mist became thicker and thicker, and continued to spread around, and soon the entire puddle and most of the chariot were all enveloped in it.

The cold moonlight and the faint light of the fire were all blocked out by the black fog. No one could see what was going on in the black fog, but when the black fog spread around the chariot, the four cart cloud camels that were not even afraid of the high-level demon wolves suddenly convulsed all over their bodies and fell down for some reason.

It took half an hour for the black fog to gradually dissipate, revealing the thin black figure in the puddle.

The corpses of more than thirty Blood Skull warriors were gone.

The stagnant water in the puddle turned the color of blood, and a layer of torn cloth and broken animal skins floated on it.

Leper Jiu turned around slowly, his pale face seemed to have a touch of blood, and the red spots on the top of his head kept bulging outward, as if some living thing was about to come out of it, but it quickly returned to normal.

Rogge came to the side of the chariot at some point, and a big black bird landed on his shoulder, and a flash of fear flashed in his eyes when he looked at Leper Jiu.

"Strategist, Shuai Ying has replied. ”

"Oh?" a gleam flashed in Leper Jiu's miserable green eyes, "What do you say?"

"The elite of the five thousand cavalry will arrive before noon tomorrow, along with two siege beasts and three mid-level demon generals, all of whom are the strength of the four realms. ”

Leper Jiu frowned, his face didn't show much joy, "Why are they all intermediate-level demon generals? Can't you send a high-level one! That's the son of a true demon." ”

Rogge said unhurriedly: "The letter said that the shadow of the human elite was found near the barracks, and the blood marshal personally led people to chase them out, these three generals are already the strongest masters in the camp, and they will personally bring people to come when the blood marshal returns to the camp." ”

Hearing this, Leper Jiu's face softened slightly, "You said just now, there were two siege beasts?"

"Yes, two, that's enough, I've observed the gates of Black Rock City, and they will definitely not be able to withstand the impact of the giant beast, and there will be no problem in breaking the city. Rogge said confidently.

Leper Jiu looked at the fanatical look in Rogge's eyes, was silent for a moment, and said, "I'm still a little worried, in order to ensure that there are no accidents in tomorrow's battle, you can prepare some more corpses for me." ”

Rogge's face changed, and he said, "I'm afraid it's inappropriate." ”

"What's the problem?" said Leper Jiu's voice.

Rogge said: "These warriors of mine, after a few days in a row, and after a big battle, they need a lot of human flesh to replenish their bodies, only in this way can we ensure that the cooperation during the battle is not on the road, and the more than five hundred people who died today have been eaten, and now I am afraid that they will not be able to meet your needs." ”

"If there are no dead people, then use the living top. Leper Jiu's voice grew colder, "Send me all the seriously injured guys." ”

"No!" Rogge flatly refused: "Eating human flesh is to maintain the combat effectiveness of the clan, as long as you don't die, you are the warrior of the Blood Skull Legion! Even if you only have one breath, we will do our best to treat it, your idea of being cold-blooded and cruel to the clan, it is best never to let the Blood Skull warrior know, otherwise, they will not hesitate to tear you to pieces, even if you are a black-robed wizard!"

Looking at the angry look on Rogge's face, and feeling the firmness and determination in his voice, Leper Jiu suddenly laughed: "This military division is just joking with you, why take it so seriously." ”

"But General Ben didn't think it was funny at all. Rogge's indifferent face did not ease in the slightest, "Tomorrow when the reinforcements arrive, the city will be attacked, so the military division should rest early." With that, he turned and left.

Leper Jiu looked at Rogge's back as he walked away, the smile on his face slowly became distorted, and his miserable green eyes revealed a strong killing intent.

......

There was a faint chill in the desert air after the rain, a carriage stopped at the gate of the small courtyard next to the arrow tower in the south of the city, Muyang jumped down from the car, a cool breeze blew, he couldn't help wrapping the clothes on his body, there was a touch of tiredness between the sunny and handsome eyebrows, but at the moment when the palm touched the courtyard door, the tired eyes suddenly had light again.

It was the second half of the night.

In the past, Black Rock City would fall into silence at this time, except for the sound of wind and rain and the sound of insects, you could occasionally hear one or two howls of wild wolves coming from outside the city.

Early spring is not the season when insects are active, the rainstorm has stopped, the wind is extremely light, there is no wolf howling outside the city, but it is not quiet in Black Rock City.

Figures were constantly walking back and forth on the previously empty city walls, the armor of the tower sentinels shimmered faintly in the moonlight, and there was the sound of banging and occasionally wheels rolling in the distance.

Despite all the careful arrangements and arrangements, Muyang still does not have the slightest confidence in winning tomorrow's battle.

He didn't know how many reinforcements the demon army would come, how many siege beasts would come, and he didn't know whether the city defense that relied on the knowledge imparted by the senior brother would be effective, and how long it would be able to resist the demon army.

But he had to make it.

Because the demon army came for him, the siege of Black Rock City also started because of him. He was responsible, and even if that responsibility sounded childish and ridiculous to anyone during the chaotic war years, he would stubbornly stick to it.

What should we do if we can't resist it? What should we do if we break the city? If it falls into the hands of the demons, who will avenge the blood feud between the master and the three thousand villagers on the island? Who will kill those traitors and traitors who are at ease in the royal city of the summer capital? Mu Yang didn't think about these questions, he didn't want to think about it, and he didn't dare to think about it, at this time he had only one thought in his heart -- to defend Black Rock City and win tomorrow's battle.
