Chapter 1352: Sea of Skeletons (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Late at night, in the Vatino, the soldiers had fallen asleep after a day of fighting. The headquarters in the Papal Palace is still brightly lit.

Several large lamps illuminate the hall as if it were daylight, and in the middle of the hall is a huge sand table with a length and width of more than three meters.

Although the sand table is huge, it is also extremely fine, and the Vatino City and the Semitic camp are clearly marked.

The hall was still noisy, with people coming in and out.

More than a dozen telephones were all piled up on the table, and all kinds of wires were tangled indiscriminately, which was extremely messy. And those noisy and piercing bells kept ringing, so that the officers next to them didn't care about tidying up at all. I can only keep picking up the phones one by one and shouting at them all the time.

At this time, the officers were also exhausted and shouted hoarsely, but they still had to shout into the microphone: "Hey, hey." Feed. I can't hear clearly, you say louder~!"

Unlike the original product, the telephone used by the military is the second generation of the Flying Eagle company, and it is also the latest product - the hand-cranked magnet telephone.

Before making a phone call, you have to hold the handle and shake it violently. And because the quality of the call is not good, in order to make the person on the other side hear their words clearly, they can only shout loudly and desperately.

Although the day's fighting is over, the soldiers can go to rest, but there is still a lot of follow-up work for the officers to complete.

For example, count casualties, replenish ammunition consumption, divide defense areas, summarize the combat experience of the day, formulate response plans, inspect sentry posts, and lead patrols...... And so on and so forth.

Lorraine, as the highest officer, naturally can't be lazy, and has been busy with Patroud, so even old Mazovia can't rest.

During the daytime battle, although the old man did not personally participate in the battle. But he was also frightened, and he was already exhausted, but as the Vatino's butler, there was no reason for the guests to be busy working hard for him, and he went to sleep. Therefore, I can only accompany Lord Lorraine to hold on.

Just as Mazovia was drowsy, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps.

Immediately after, a soldier strode in. shouted loudly: "Report, there is a situation~!"

Old Mazovia shuddered with fright, almost fell off her chair, and jumped up in a panic with her hands and feet. Nervously said loudly: "What's wrong, what's wrong, did the demon cubs call......"

The officers around him were all stunned, and then they all turned their heads and gave him a strange look.

Old Mazovia came to her senses and smiled wryly.

The soldier came up to Lorraine and Patroud and said in a loud voice: "There is a sudden mass movement in the enemy camp, and there may be an attack. ”

Lorraine and Patrood looked at each other, both with surprised expressions on each other's faces.

After a day of fighting. Both the enemy and the enemy are exhausted to the extreme, and it is impossible to fight any longer.

At this time, it was impossible for the Semitic to launch another large-scale attack, unless the Semitic generals wanted to exhaust their soldiers.

But Patroud did not dare to slack off, and did not hesitate to order: "Order all units to be in position in the third layer of defense." ”

"Go. Lorraine groaned for a moment, then grabbed the holster he had thrown on the table and ran out quickly. The staff officers in the headquarters did not dare to slack off, and they all followed closely behind.

Shrill whistles rang out all over the city. The "beep" rang non-stop.

Immediately, to the roar of the officers, the soldiers of the brigade rushed out of the houses on both sides of the street, and they ran quickly through the street with their weapons in hand.

Lorraine climbed directly onto the roof of the Temple of Light and looked west.

I saw that the fire was flickering in the Semitic camp, and many points of light were slowly moving westward, as if they had left the camp.

This puzzled everyone: if the enemy was attacking. Aren't they supposed to go east, in the direction of the Vatino?

"This ...... What's going on?" asked General Patroud, puzzled.

Lorraine could only spread his hands helplessly and said, "Wait, it won't be long before news comes." ”

Patroud looked at Lord Lorraine with surprise and confusion, it was not clear what was going on this night, and he couldn't leave the city. How do I know the enemy's movements?

Patroud muttered secretly in his heart: "Could it be that this master has an undercover agent in the enemy camp? Impossible, even if there is an undercover agent, the news will not be transmitted." ”

A few minutes later, a young man walked briskly over to Lord Lorraine and whispered a few words to Lorraine.

Out of professional habit, Patroud took a closer look at the man by the light in the distance, but found that the man was quite innocent, and only vaguely remembered that he seemed to be related to Miss Vera.

Patroud couldn't help muttering in a low voice in his heart: This brother-in-law's party is really everywhere~!

But then he thought about it, the future emperor of the empire, His Majesty Leole, seemed to be one of Lord Luo's brother-in-law.

If he continues to secretly slander this brother-in-law, then Second Master Lei can naturally only lie down.

Therefore, although he was not used to this ugly social phenomenon, as a loyal courtier of the empire, he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

At this point, Lorraine was seen talking to the young man in a low voice.

Patroud vaguely heard the words "lich" and "dark mage", although he didn't hear it too clearly, but just those few key words were enough to make Patroud suddenly have a bad premonition in his heart.

Finally, when the young man had finished speaking, he walked away briskly and disappeared into the night.

Patlaud glanced at the young man's back, and was secretly curious about his identity: this young man was so powerful that he could clearly know the enemy's movements in the dark.

How did he do it?

At this time, Lorraine's face became very stern, and after a moment of silence, he muttered to himself in a low voice: "Playing this trick at the headquarters of the Holy See of Light, these lichs won't burn out their brains, right?"

Then he shook his head and said, "No, if something goes wrong, it must be a demon~!"

Patroud nervously asked, "My lord, what happened?"

Lorraine pointed to the dark outside of the city and said, "A group of old friends are in front?"

"Old friends?"

"Lichs and dark mages. ”

Mazovia and Patrod were stunned at the same time.

Lorraine patted Mazovia on the shoulder and said, "Old horse, there are hundreds of lichs and five or six hundred dark mages outside the city. The Semitic army is retreating in a hurry, what can you think of?"

Mazovia said dumbfounded: "What can I think of......"

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he shouted: "They are planning dark spells~!"

Then Mazovia gritted her teeth and said viciously: "Put dark mages outside the Holy See, they don't die fast enough, I'll go and gather people."

There are not many Vatinos, but there are many clergy~!"

Mazovia ran down the roof with a vigorous step, shouting as she ran, "Someone." Go and call me all who can cast spells.

If we dare to let the undead creature step into the Vatino, we will simply wipe our necks and commit suicide. ”

At this time, all the fatigue of the old man's body had disappeared, and the sound was like a bell. Faintly, Lorraine could hear a hint of excitement in his voice. I don't know what this old man is happy about?

Soon, thousands of priests, chief priests, bishops, cardinals, and even cardinals and ascetics rushed to the walls under the protection of the Knights Templar.

Because it was too hasty. A lot of people even got out of bed and rushed out of the guy directly, still wearing pajamas and nighthats.

As Mazovia said, it is a disgrace for them to let the undead creatures step into the Vatino, the defenders of the Holy See headquarters.

The sacred Vatino is not to be defiled.

Everybody's out to mix, and it's all very clear about that.

Once the Vatino ceased to be sacred. The common people will no longer be as religious as before, so it will be much more difficult for everyone to go out to cheat money in the future.

These bald people have never been kind people, and they have always been ruthless. Usually, when dealing with ordinary people, they also eat and take cards, they have all five poisons, and they have to find trouble if they have nothing to do. What's more, now there are people who dare to smash their field. Knock on their rice bowls.

All of them stared at each other with blood-red eyes and screamed, like a bunch of wolf cubs.

Immediately, hundreds of various holy lights illuminated the battlefield outside the Vatino, and with the holy arts, even flares were saved.

The entire Vatino's walls were as bright as if they were glowing. Stand on top of the Temple of Light and pass. It's spectacular and gorgeous.

"It's so beautiful~!"

There were two coquettish cries from behind Lord Lorraine, and Shilmelia and Vera didn't know when they came behind Lorraine.

The holy light instantly illuminated a range of several hundred meters outside the city wall.

Lorraine set up the telescope and looked carefully, only to see that in the milky white light, the gray-white bone shelf was slowly moving towards the Vatino.

Countless skeleton soldiers spread up from all sides like a tidal wave, completely encircling the Vatino.

Lorraine handed the telescope to Patroud, and he immediately gasped and exclaimed, "Skeleton soldiers, Skeleton Sea tactics~!"

W-how's this going to work?"

The so-called Sea of Skull tactics are the methods used by the lichs. Overwhelm your opponent with a massive number of undead creatures, and even if you can't kill them, you will tire them to death.

After the opponent's strength is greatly consumed, the dark mage Dark Knight, and the demon soldiers rush up to easily destroy the enemy, this trick has been tried and tested repeatedly.

The soldiers of Patlaud and the Eagle Division were trained to target the living, not the undead.

Although everyone knows the existence of this undead creature, the first time they see it with their own eyes, as long as it is human, they will be frightened.

It is said that the undead creatures are invulnerable and cannot be killed at all, so how effective can the guns in the hands of the Eagle Division soldiers be?

Lord Lorraine suddenly chuckled and said, "If you change places, the Eagle Master still has a real headache for the Skeleton Sea tactics, as long as the necromancer still has mana, the skeleton soldiers will never be killed, and the zombies, if you don't tear them to pieces, are dangerous, but ......

It's the Vatino~!"

The last thing that is lacking is the clergy who deal with undead creatures.

Mazovia quickly ran back out of breath, and he first saluted Hilmelia respectfully, and said, "Your Majesty, my lord, the lich doesn't know what is crazy, there are skeletons everywhere outside the city, and there are zombies behind them.

The enemy is determined to attack the city with undead creatures. ”

"Can you stop it?" asked Lord Lorraine with concern.

Mazovia smiled confidently and said firmly: "Of course, please rest assured that Your Majesty and the Lord are assured." ”

The Holy See has been losing battles since the beginning of the war. So much so that the Vatino had to rely on His Majesty the Pope to sacrifice beauty and beauties to the Viceroy Ambassador of Naian.

Although the two have long been a couple, the dignified Vatino has to rely on outsiders to protect them, which really makes the Vatino people very faceless.

When facing Lord Lorraine and the Eagle Master, he first felt a few pieces of guilt.

The Maple Leaf Danlin people resisted the undead war fortress troops, and they fought impressively.

The Vatino collapsed for thousands of miles, losing hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and the two sides were compared. What will the common people think in their hearts, how can they be Vatino?

This opportunity to finally give them the full play is very important in rebuilding the confidence of the Vatino.

What's more, holy magic is for dark spells. is the relationship between the city guard and the hawker, a natural nemesis, and it really uses that saying: Don't beat it too cool~!

In the face of the Dark Mage's Sea of Skull tactics, the Priests will use their holy arts to prove that they are also the main force of the coalition and an indispensable and important force.

At the moment, more than 20,000 clergymen are involved in the battle.

There is no need to wait for orders, the priests on the city walls, the bishops are doing their best. The Vatino City Head was transformed into a holy art display for the Holy See of Light.

All kinds of splendid holy arts even lit up half of the night sky. It spread far away for dozens of miles.

Holy magic keeps undead creatures out of the limit, and undead creatures that cross into this range are purified into ashes in an instant.

Occasionally, a few gunshots rang out, and it was the soldiers of the Eagle Division shooting the leaky fish.

However, since the undead are unconscious and lifeless, it takes several shots to kill an undead creature, compared to hitting someone. Very uneconomical.

But skeletons, zombies, and these cheap undead creatures still flow from the darkness to the Vatino, as if to consume the clergy on the city walls.

Even Mazovia, who was in the city, couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "What a strong dark mana fluctuation~!"

However, if you continue to consume it like this, it will be no problem until dawn. ”

Lorraine shook her head and said, "You understand a question, and the lich will not understand it." There must be something wrong with it.

Put the artillery on high alert. ”

This senseless battle went on for more than an hour, and even the priests felt a little impatient.

At this time, a special "rustling" sound suddenly came from the battlefield, although it was low, but it clearly reached the ears of everyone in the city.

The sound sounded like a huge object moving on the ground.

Lord Lorraine frowned, secretly wondering in his heart, where did he seem to have heard this voice?

Turn your head Vera. Vera's expression was as puzzled as Lorraine's, and she nodded, a voice she seemed to have heard before.

A powerful ascetic shot a grand holy light in the direction from which the voice came, instantly illuminating the battlefield outside the city.

In the horrified eyes of everyone, an "animal" like a small mountain was slowly wriggling, and it was like a maggot that had been magnified countless times.

"What is this...... What the hell?"

"God of Light is above, what is that?"

β€œ......”

The clergy on the wall were all stunned for a moment, they were the first time they had come to such a disgusting, terrifying undead creature. Many people couldn't help but crawl on the top of the city and vomited.

To make matters worse, this monster is found on all sides of the city, and there is more than one in each direction.

Under the illumination of the light, a large group of crawling undead creatures could be clearly seen slowly crawling out of the darkness in the distance, the nearest being less than three hundred meters away from the Vatino.

An ascetic blasted the powerful holy light on the monster, and under the thick light, pieces of flesh peeled off the monster's body like melting snow in the sun.

If you look closely, this piece of peeling flesh turned out to be a corpseβ€”a human corpse.

But these peeling corpses were quickly grabbed back by the tentacles that poked out of the main body and pulled into the main body.

The light that could bake the lich to slag did not stop the monster in its track.

Immediately, more light shone on the monster, but the monster peeled off and regrouped while slowly wriggling.

Mazovia's face changed greatly, and he said in a panic: "This is ......"

"Corpse Demon," Lorraine exhaled slowly, "This is the Corpse Demon, the monster that once destroyed Edin Island. ”

At the same time, he suddenly understood in his heart, and said: "The lich drove the skeleton soldiers to attack the city, just to buy time to release the corpse demon, hell~!"

I knew I should have shelled it again.

A ghoul unleashed by a lich had destroyed the harbor of Edin Island, and it took great difficulty for Lorraine and Vera to kill it.

Unexpectedly, there were more than a dozen of them here.

This monster was researched by the Lich hundreds of years ago and was forbidden to be used in Semit by the High Priest of the Dead.

The Vatino didn't know much about him, and after the battle on Edin Island, the Holy See who went to investigate only found the corpses of the undead that had been eroded by the dark mages.

"As long as there is mana to urge it, this monster can keep devouring corpses or living people, and then grow bigger. Lorraine elaborated: "If you want to kill him completely, you also need to kill the lich who controls the corpse demon. If they were allowed to enter the Vatino, it is estimated that the entire city would be wiped out. ”

The Vatino's low walls simply couldn't stop them.

The priests at the head of the city also began to fight hard, this kind of monster knew that it was not easy to deal with, all kinds of holy arts bombarded them endlessly, and the speed of the corpse demon group finally slowed down, but it did not disintegrate.

That is, the clergy have only slowed them down.

Suddenly there was a roar from under Lorraine's feet, and the artillery fired.

The orange flames lit up the city in an instant.

A few seconds later, orange flames exploded near the corpse demon closest to the city.

Two cannons hit the corpse demon's body directly, and the fire enveloped it so that most of the corpse demon's body was blown apart, and the monster finally fell.

But before the Vatinos at the head of the city could cheer, the terrifying monster that had been half blown up swelled again at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Then another burst of artillery fire covered it, but the monster stubbornly regrouped.

At this time, the Vatinos also let out, and used their sucking strength to attack the approaching corpse demons.

Under the double blow of artillery and holy arts, these monsters scattered and reunited, gathered and scattered, as if it had become a tug-of-war.

But the number of these monsters is too much, and the artillery of the Eagle Division has to fire in all directions, which greatly dilutes the intensity of firepower.

The range of the holy arts is limited, most priests and chief priests can only fight more than a hundred meters at most, and only powerful ascetics can attack them at the moment.

More than ten corpse demons slowly approached within two hundred meters of Vatino, and no one knew if there were more such monsters in the darkness behind.

The fire was scattered over the twelve corpse monsters, and it gradually became a little inadequate, just blocking this one, and the other quickly reunited, and the artillerymen also felt that they had lost one or the other.

The battle became a contest of Eagle Division's artillery firepower, holy arts, and lich mana.

Lorraine's face was getting more and more difficult, the battle situation was not optimistic, and these monsters were approaching the Vatino inch by inch.
