Volume IV The Reign of Chaos 238 Araki

Hearing the name, Araki's throat immediately made a strange noise, and I glanced at him and said, "We have to get out of here." ”

"How far is it?" I asked.

"It'll be here in about half an hour." The scout said.

When I heard the news, I quickly got up from the ground, "Withdraw!" "I said it very simply.

When we withdrew, Araki asked, "Do you know Mograini?" ”

At this point, I didn't really want to pay attention to him, and I already knew why the soldiers couldn't be summoned. After walking a long way, I said, "I have a bad feeling. ”

Araki shook his head, puzzled.

"Once the man with the big sword rushes towards Keldaron with the army, we may not be able to withstand it." I say.

Araki looked at me in amazement, "Is that true?" ”

"That man's name is Alexandros Mograini, and you didn't ask me if I knew him? Don't you know him? I said, "The sword he carries can easily take the life of your dog." ”

"How do you know?" He asked.

He figured that I had just come to know about it, and I said, "I know no less than you do, lich! ”

The guy laughed and was about to shut up. "Have you ever fought with him?" I asked.

He nodded, "Yes, hand-to-hand." ”

"Are you not his opponent at all?" I said contemptuously.

"Our army...... Indeed, it is no match for his army. He said.

This guy doesn't talk about his incompetence.

"And what about the army you have gathered?" I continue with the question I didn't finish yesterday.

"These guys are getting more and more fierce now, and Andohal doesn't really belong to us anymore." He said. "Originally, I was going to train an army in Andorhar, but this group of paladins ...... What a bloody crusade was formed. He grimaced, "This group of paladins should be members of the original Knights of the Silver Hand, the Silver Hand was banned by the King of Arthas, and now this group of guys has organized such a rebel group. ”

These are his exact words.

The Scarlet Crusaders are a rebel group......

Ha! That seems to be a good thing to say, right, and it was quite rebellious later.

But listening to him at the time didn't feel anything wrong. "Their strength is several times greater than our army, and we are a little bit overwhelmed by them." He said.

"Isn't that a little?" I glared at him. "Have you provoked them lately?"

He shook his head, "Before you came, they ...... It has been active on the north side of Andorhar. ”

"You mean we brought them here, don't you?"

"No, no...... I didn't mean that. He hastened to explain. We need to keep an eye on what they are doing. ”

Even though he said, he could only do this, "You can resurrect the undead all at once?" I asked.

He still shook his head, "Not much." He said.

"I want a lot, not a lot." I'm a little disgusted by this guy's ambiguity.

"A dozen." He said.

"Not a lot." I say. "If we fight them again, it's up to you."

"No...... Rice can too. "He hurried to unload his burden," that was called...... The guy from Sarnos is not ...... Isn't it amazing? ”

"So what do you do?" I glared at him.

"I ...... I'll do my thing. He said.

"Then do what you have to do."

We immediately turned back to Keldaron without rushing to Andorhar, I felt the breath of war, and the numbers of our troops were not optimistic. There are three Lichs and a few Abominations, but I'm not sure what the odds are against the Paladins.

And our presence must have caught their attention, and this place is in danger in Keldaron. We also had a special meeting to discuss whether to defend the island, they meant to defend this place, after all, it would be very difficult for them to land on the island, and the stone bridge leading to the outside alone could wipe out half of their people. Then they began to discuss tactics.

I asked them a question, "So where are we going to flee if we are breached?" ”

Araki shook his head and said, "It's not that easy for them. ”

"I don't have the leisure to argue with you, if you are willing to stay here, I will not stop you." I said, "As long as they consider this a base camp, they will probably gather all the living lords and men, even the Stormgardians and dwarves, to attack it." ”

I looked at Barov and then at the lich, "But can you make sure you have enough soldiers?" With your ability to resurrect only a dozen people at a time? ”

"When they land on the island with thirty or even forty or more boats, tell me that you are going to flee to the sky or to drill into the ground?" I glanced around.

"Of course Miss Barov should be able to teleport spells, right?" I glanced at Jandis, "You will too?" "I looked at Araki. I looked at Sarnos again, "Do you teleport spells?" ”

Sarnos didn't speak.

"This kind of risky thing, you have to do it, you do." I said, "My task is to bring more soldiers for His Majesty the King and not to send them to their deaths." ”

I looked at Araki, "Your task is to first ensure the king's victory on the battlefield over there, and when he returns, all the organizations and armies here will be wiped out." I pointed to the ground, "If you want to be buried here forever, I can fulfill you now." ”

Araki tilted his head, stared at me with those eyes, and said, "I agree with you. ”

I would suggest that the Barovs should be prepared to escape from the measures or play dead. But Jandis shook his head and said, "We're not dead yet!" ”

I looked at this woman, who was still rich despite the hardships of life, and the light in her eyes made me feel very disliked.

Sherling agreed with me, saying he didn't want to ruin his work. And once Serlin is leaving, it means that many of the hatreds here will be withdrawn with him.

"I hope you'll clean up your house before the crusaders come." I glanced at Miss Jandis on my horse, and Thirling, who had become a dead man, seemed to be of little interest to her.

So we left here and headed for East Wederde, which is now full of crusader camps, and the less affected living people in East Weddell are probably still waiting for spring to come!

Winter seems to be a bit long, at least spring comes later than usual. I don't know if it's too late, but Rice, who has been very interested in plants, told me that the beginning of spring failed. The spring cold froze to death the shoots that had just been about to wake up and had just woken up.

It's the same with the people here, in fact, they really don't have any hope, the only hope is to get out of here or ...... Die!

In this age when it is more difficult to live than to die, death is a good solution to many problems. And when you die, you don't have to eat, you don't have to sleep, and you don't have to worry. At least you won't worry about what to eat for your next meal, where your next meal will be, why you eat potatoes again, and you won't be sad about where you live and where you live is a louse nest.

And after he died...... It's basically immortal.

But many people did not accept this kind of good thing, and they fled in terror and away from us. And we want to get close to them, and we don't want to say whether we can save them from the sea of suffering for the time being, but as the people of Lordaeron, we must do our part for their king.

And now there is a ...... in this land A rebel group called the Scarlet Crusaders, which must also be eliminated.

And all those who dare to come into contact with the Scarlet Crusades...... I will not abandon them for this, and though I will detest them, they must take up arms and forgive their enemies who have helped the king.

The villages on the west side of the lake have almost disappeared except for Keldaron and the east, but there are still many, many people living on the vast expanse of land between the east side of the lake and the Sodoril River...... Person!

To speed things up, I've split the three lichs into three teams. I was on a team with Sarnos, Cerlin was on a team with Araki, and Barov, who had become a dead man, was on his side with his guard captain Marduk and Rice.

We need to expand our army as much as possible in the shortest possible time.

The effect was significant, and soon my team grew from less than 100 to more than 300. This is much better than catching strong men, especially loyalty.

But the biggest risk of this is that the consumption of lichs is very large. And in order to ensure that these villages are not discovered in a short time, I have sent a lot of scouts to ensure that as soon as we pass through these villages, they will be culled as soon as they appear.

In fact......

Belch......

Hum...... If I had given the bottle to Araki, I might not have had to go through the hassle.

This was actually a really good thing, but when we got to the farm in the town of Giron, we were still discovered.

I don't know how it was discovered, but by the time we reached the town of Giron, all the people had been evacuated. And they even locked the door when they left!

It's unbearable!

Although they don't know where their food is hidden, at least not in the granary, they don't need it anymore.

Now that their whereabouts have been revealed, it doesn't matter, maybe they'll be back when we're evacuated. And when they come back, maybe we still have a chance.

So I left with the army, leaving only a gargoyle crouching on the bell tower.

But we didn't go very far, and hid in a reed swing on the banks of the Sodoril River, not very far from the town.

But in the middle of the night, the gargoyle did not come back to report, and in the early morning of the next day, a gargoyle descended from the sky, bringing news of the arrival of some townspeople.

Actually, I'm very angry, this guy has a brain problem!

What I needed was where they were hiding, not if it told me that the townsfolk who had come to investigate were in town, so we continued to soak in the water. Of course they're not afraid of the cold, and I'm not afraid of either! It's just that I hate this slimy place.

Thankfully, I was on a horse.

But when the gargoyle returned, I immediately ordered to evacuate!

The Scarlet Crusaders are coming!

Of course, the gargoyle doesn't know who Mograine is, and I don't want to ask if it's Mograini, just saying that the number of people exceeds Wu Bai makes me have the idea of retreating, and the number of paladins in this kind of team is quite a lot, and I can't come hard now. My soldiers are precious!

But we had barely left the reeds, and before we had even walked on the right path, we encountered the Scarlet Crusaders who had arrived. At this time, it is no longer a narrow road, it is completely life and death.

And I found out that this team was as I expected, and not only did there be paladins in the team, but the number of paladins should be more than thirty!

You know exactly what the concept of thirty paladins is. Although the paladins at that time did not have the methods that were later developed specifically for the dead, such as some Holy Light Judgment spells and exorcism spells, I can guarantee that my team will instantly lose one-tenth of the number of heads when these guys launch a Holy Light Storm at the same time.

But at this time, I had to bite the bullet, and I couldn't run if I wanted to!

After a rain of arrows, we returned fire to them, and after a slight halt to their progress, I declare that we will return to the reeds at once!

Yes!

Get back!

I can't run away on land, but I can get alive when I get into the reeds!

Ha!

Guess what method I used!

You guess!

It was a long winter, but there wasn't a lot of extreme cold, and the reeds we had just gotten into were ...... And it didn't freeze! You know what that means!

It's because there is no freezing, so the mud in the reeds is very soft!

And the light infantry among these soldiers is fine, and those heavy infantry shield guards are dead if they go in with the cavalry!

We didn't go around in circles with them, we just stood thirty paces away and shot at each other, and they chased us and retreated, although I didn't shoot much, I know that they didn't shoot much, otherwise those people would have withdrawn a long time ago, but as long as this group of people rushed in, don't think about leaving.

Because I set another fire!

Sarnos loves fire the most!
