Three basement floors.

The Imperial army cleared the area near the stairwell and relied on the Grey Worm barrier to build a strong defensive line.

The barrier formed by the gray worm obstacle stopped the attack of the undead army.

Water-cooled light machine guns are set up in the ramparts, firing abruptly towards the windows, fending off the undead with a torrent of bullets.

The Bee Syrup Bomb is launched through a fixed bomb launcher to accurately kill large skeletons at a distance.

The sticky flamethrower spews red flames that burn piles of walking corpses to pieces.

Ensign Gretel's transformation into a cyborg is a ferocious humanoid war machine.

After fighting continuously for nearly half an hour, he still attacked sharply without the slightest stagnation.

From the left side of the hall on the third basement floor, he slaughtered to the far right side of the hall, and then smoothly killed back to the far left from the far right, like a huge iron plow, repeatedly crushing the army of the undead.

This huge battle scene was reflected in the eyes of the wounded soldiers behind the defense line, turning into a flickering light and shadow on the iris.

Li Nuo was half-lying on the floor, leaning his back against the wall, and exhaled slowly.

Beside him, Sergeant Mars was clutching his arms, baring his teeth and gasping cold:

"Oops... The metal skeleton almost killed me, but luckily I always had a powerful combat stimulant on me, otherwise I would have to confess to this hellish place..."

Li Nuo glanced at the bandage on the other party's arm and shook his head slightly.

Mars walked alone on the edge of the battlefield for more than ten minutes with metal skeletons and self-detonating skeletons. In the end, he couldn't bear the iron sword of the metal skeleton anymore, so he injected himself with a combat stimulant and ran back to the front line.

It is probably this excitement and excitement between life and death that made him fall in love with military life...

Corporal Maika, who was slumped on the ground, complained:

"Sir, don't leave us alone next time. Alas, if you were in the ranks, how dare that Sergeant Pig bully us..."

Sergeant Mars's expression darkened, and he hammered down the wall hard, his eyes faintly red:

"It's all my fault, I let Cobain drug Pig's nutrients... Corburn could have confessed to me, but he didn't... I was never mentioned... How am I going to deal with his parents... It's all my fault.."

Corporal Maika opened his mouth to say something comforting, but he couldn't find the right words because his mind was too simplistic, so he turned his attention to the assistant professor of prehistory.

Leno met Corporal Mika's gaze, shook his head, and made a gesture of silence.

It is useless to say more.

Let Sergeant Mars digest the negativity on his own.

Sergeant Mars is smart and nimble enough, but lacks experience and appears a bit frizzy.

After this incident, he may be able to understand that he is the commander of the squad first, and the sergeant who fought valiantly second.

The atmosphere of the squad fell silent, and everyone was thinking about their own business.

Li Nuo took advantage of the rest time to quickly recall the memories related to Pym and Pig.

One thing he was almost 100% sure of:

That is, Pym is also a spy of the Death Society.

There is nothing to question this.

Pyg was arranged by Pym, and Pyg's hostility and eyes were exactly the same as Pym's, whether out of metaphysics or self-confidence, Leno would treat Pym as a spy of the Death Society.

So, think about it from another perspective, what did Pym most want to find out after learning that his subordinate had died unexpectedly and had lost his amulet?

There are two things:

How exactly did Pyg die, and the exact whereabouts of the amulet.

Regarding both questions, Leno knew the answers, and Pym also knew that Leno knew.

Therefore, the future development trend of events is clear.

Surely, at some point in time, on irrefutable grounds, Pym will take the criminal number 888 away and interrogate him individually.

"When the time comes, the trouble I'm going to face is no less than when Pig coerced me into joining the Death Society. I have to prepare in advance, and I must find a way to kill Pym, or I will be in trouble. So what should I do..."

Li Nuo thought to himself and vaguely had an idea.

He looked up at the tall corpse in the center of the hall.

The translucent black light curtain on the outer layer of the corpse is the magic shield.

This protective shield enveloped the corpse from top to bottom, even the altar on the top floor.

If you look closely at the light curtain with the help of a telescope, you can see that the light curtain is covered with tadpole-like necromantic runes, which are extremely numerous and densely arranged.

These necromancy runes are the key to keeping the shield running.

These are the ones that Li Nuo needs to change.

"That's right, sir."

Leno turned his head and asked Sergeant Mars, who was alone and sentimental:

"Do you know when you start breaking the magic shield? I'm going to prepare in advance. ”

Sergeant Mars wiped away his tears, raised his bandaged arm, and pointed to the two figures at the top of the tower:

"Look at the Death Society Assassin who is undergoing a necromantic transformation ritual. I estimate that in about another 20 minutes or so, the ceremony will be completed. The order given to us by MI was to cooperate with MI2 to capture the Assassin alive or to shoot him on the spot.

"At least we have to wait until we capture that assassin, or kill him, before we have time to deal with the Necromantic Clergy in the Tower."

Sergeant Mars paused:

"Kill both the Assassins and the Clergy, and then it's time to crack the magic shield. There's at least an hour difference between that. ”

Li Nuo nodded slowly when he heard this:

"So, when the skeletons on the next floor of the ground are revived, I should be revising the necromantic runes, right? At that time, will the Imperial army return to the basement level to support Sergeant Pym? ”

Sergeant Mars was distracted by the topic of Lenovo, and was no longer immersed in self-blame and remorse for Cobain.

After gathering his thoughts, he continued:

"Hmm... Jarvis, I don't know if you've noticed that the necromancy runes on the magic shield are far more complex than the translations I gave you. You may only recognize a small fraction of the runes on the magic shield. ”

"Yes, sir. I've found this issue. ”

Sergeant Mars spread his hands:

"So it's impossible for you to lift the magic shield alone. In fact, all you have to do is modify a few necromancy runes to prove that doing so does a quick weakening of the shield, and you're done.

"After that, we will still use the burning method to forcibly remove the magic shield. Next time I clean up the catacombs, I'll bring you more translations so you can modify more necromantic runes.

"It's a step-by-step process. After all, we're worried about your mind being confused by being exposed to too many necromantic texts at once. ”

Li Nuo now understood:

"I see, sir. After the skeleton soldiers on the basement level were revived, Sergeant Pym had to rely on his own troops to fend off the undead. We simply don't have the hands to help him. ”

"Yes, if nothing happens, it is." Sergeant Mars added:

"However, you don't have to worry about the rout of Sergeant Pym's troops. Reinforcements from the Legion were about to arrive. Sergeant Pym should be able to make it to that point. No matter how bad it is, he can retreat to the ground. As long as there is no riot in the tomb, the undead will not run to the ground. ”

Li Nuo looked at the corpse, blinked, and had a wonderful idea...

Pym must have feared that Pig's affair would implicate him. Fighting bloodily after the resurrection of the undead is undoubtedly a bitter trick to show loyalty.

Based on this, Leno was sure that Pym would fight to the death on the underground level, rather than retreat to the surface.

Then when you modify the necromantic rune, you should deliberately ink a little, so that Pimdo and the skeleton soldiers are "affectionate".

Perhaps, Pym will die at the hands of the skeletons.

Belch... It seems a bit unrealistic.

Pig had the amulet in his hand, and Pym should have it too.

Pym wanted to survive under the skeletons, but it was quite easy.

In order to kill Pym, he had to think of a more secure way.

Li Nuo called up his personal panel, checked the resources at his disposal, and entered a state of contemplation amid the sound of gunfire.
