More than an hour later.

The first floor of the tomb.

The army commander, Sergeant Alvin, made two-handed preparations.

On the one hand, he applied for support from the Legion fortress.

On the other hand, he gave the order to attack.

The army is massing.

The camp was crowded.

On the arm of each soldier who is about to participate in the battle, a lightning spor, a mutated product capable of releasing forked lightning.

After the soldiers drank an unknown mutagenic potion, something like a bean sprout grew out of their arms, and Li Nuo didn't know how this worked.

Sergeant Alvin made temporary changes to the army's personnel arrangements.

Including Sergeant Alvin himself, there was 1 sergeant, 18 sergeants, 80 corporals in his army, and the rest were all privates.

Eighteen sergeants were originally squad leaders or members of the guards.

Now, Alvin has drawn 12 of the sergeants out and put them together with the sinners to form a special team:

Spirit Binding Stone Mound Demolition Team.

The captain was Sergeant Mars.

The sergeants escorted the sinners to the cairn, and the sinners tampered with the necromantic runes on the cairns under the supervision of the sergeant.

Things have come to this point, and the secret plans of MI4 are in a semi-open state in Alvin's army.

No matter how much Sergeant Alvin ordered secrecy, it was only a matter of time before the plan was leaked.

Li Nuo doesn't care about this, he's just a criminal soldier, and there is no need to think about the overall situation.

He was now only thinking about how to safely modify the necromantic runes.

But some people just don't let him worry...

...

"No matter where you came from, you have heard me clearly."

The three remaining sinners in the army stood together, discussing the matter of modifying the commander's rune, occupying a small open space in the camp.

One of them, a tall sinner, spat on the floor and said viciously:

"If you dare to blindly command while modifying the necromantic rune, it will cost me my life... Then I promise, I will definitely pull you on my back before I die. ”

Li Nuo glanced at the scar on the sin soldier's eyebrow bone, and looked at the other party without the slightest fear:

"If you're smart enough, give me some points. With just one thought, I can use the Storm of Death to crush you. And you? What else but yelling? You should be glad that I still need you to give me a thunderstorm, otherwise... Hehe, it doesn't make a difference to me whether you're alive or dead. ”

Who wouldn't talk about it, how do you think I got mixed up in Night City, the holy capital of civilization?

To deal with this kind of bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, you have to make him speechless, otherwise he will be even more arrogant.

Li Nuo's words are more effective than low-level threats, both in terms of confidence and logic. As long as the IQ is higher than that of a child, you can understand what he means.

Sure enough, the sinner's gaze trembled slightly, and there was a hint of cringe in his tough attitude.

He twisted his neck, glared at Li Nuo, and looked away:

"You wait for me, and one day I'll clean you up.."

Li Nuo didn't care, and turned his head to look at the sinner soldier standing on the other side of him.

This is a man who is only a little stronger than Li Nuo, and his body line is very well-proportioned.

When Li Nuo introduced the necromantic rune, this guy didn't say a word from beginning to end, just lowered his head there and silently moved his head.

Compared with the domineering scar sinner, this kind of silent sinner soldier makes Li Nuo even more jealous, and nine times out of ten he is the kind of ruthless goods that can make people capsize in the gutter.

Li Nuo noticed that this guy didn't have a middle finger and seemed to have been forcibly cut off, and it was estimated that he should be a thief who was caught in the current situation or something...

Wait, not necessarily a thief...

Li Nuo's eyes narrowed, and he had another guess about the identity of the silent criminal soldier.

There is also a profession that also cuts off the middle finger, and he does it voluntarily...

Does this profession exist in this world?

Li Nuo is not so sure.

...

The army is ready to go.

All the staff put on their breathing masks and marched into the stairwell.

The soldier in charge of the battle with the enemy is helped by the lightning spores, while the sinner soldier who wants to tamper with the necromantic rune has a rune stick in his hand.

The Rune Rod is an alchemy item that allows ordinary people to modify necromantic runes.

It is in the form of an iron-gray metal rod, about the length of a flaking rod, covered with intricate and esoteric alchemical inscriptions, from the Golden Federation, where alchemy was prevalent.

It can be used in the same way as a normal pen, and it can be used to change the existing necromantic rune to something else by simply scribbling on the necromantic rune on the stone mound.

The sin soldier doesn't have lightning spores, after all, this is a relatively powerful mutant weapon.

Nine times out of ten, the sinners will use lightning spores to cause chaos. It's a terrible situation and can't be allowed to happen.

When Li Nuo stepped on the battlefield this time, he only had a hard rune stick in his hand and did not carry any other weapons.

He and two other sinners were escorted in the middle of the line by a group of sergeants.

Sergeant Mars was at the head of the line.

He turned back to Li Nuo and threw an encouraging look, raised his right arm, aimed the lightning spores in front of him, and took the lead in stepping through the metal gate and rushing into the battlefield on the second floor of the tomb.

At the moment when he followed the team through the door frame, a thrilling battle scene appeared in front of Li Nuo's eyes.

The second floor of the huge tomb is illuminated by the ghostly light of hundreds of stone mounds, and a three-story stone mound stands in the center of the hall.

In mid-air, the stone mound bound spirits flew in groups, rushing towards the Imperial soldiers like locusts, launching round dives with the howling yin wind.

Holding a phalanx, the soldiers rallied around Sergeant Alvin, raising their right arms high to unleash large flocks of lightning.

The electric light flickered, and the electric snake surged.

Hundreds of lightning spores erupted from forked lightning, weaving a large bright blue net above the phalanx.

As soon as the stone mound bound spirit made contact with the lightning, a deafening scream erupted.

It was terrible, terrifying, and painful, and it made the living tremble.

A stone mound binding spirit was struck by lightning in the center of the eyebrows.

Its body swelled up in just a second, and finally exploded like a blown balloon, sending large clouds of purple mist in all directions.

An illusory face of grief emerged from within this purple mist, sucked away by the stone mound in an endless wail.

This scene was a critical blow to the hearts of the soldiers who witnessed this.

Some of the privates were suddenly in a trance, and the movements of their hands slowed down by half a minute, and they lost the rhythm of their attacks.

Because of this fatal mistake, they were reduced to the rations of the stone mound binding spirits.

More than a dozen stone mound binding spirits took advantage of the soldiers' stunned efforts to pass through the loopholes in the lightning net and pounce on these stunned soldiers.

The stone mound bound spirit passed through the soldier's body, taking away the soldier's body temperature and life, and in an instant, the living soldier lost all color.

They went from being human beings with fresh flesh and blood to fragile sculptures with gray skin and withered bodies, which shattered at the slightest touch.

The stone mound bound spirit laughed wickedly and flew away from the phalanx of soldiers.

This picture of killing his companions in seconds made the surrounding soldiers more and more frightened.

Fortunately, Sergeant Alvin reminded loudly in time to pull the morale of the army back from the brink of collapse.

"Soldiers! Don't let the evil tricks of the Necronomicon break your will! Attack, keep attacking! The flames of the empire will guide our path! And I, Alvin, will fight with you until the very end! ”

Sergeant Alvin blew the horn.

The soldiers froze and once again unleashed bursts of lightning with the commander.

Li Nuo saw this scene of lightning splashing and screaming spirits, and deeply admired Sergeant Alvin's steadfastness.

Sergeant Mars's voice suddenly came from the front of the group:

"Attention! There is an enemy attacking at three o'clock! Get ready to fight, keep moving! Sergeant Alvin has given us very little time, so we must get to the stone mound as soon as possible! ”
