Chapter 168: The Call of the Dead [4K]

How would you react if suddenly something in your ear that you didn't know what it was saying "delicious"?

Others don't know, but Ryan only feels that he is panicking now, and has an urge to run away, because it is too terrifying.

Fortunately, he is also experienced in the battlefield, and he still retains a little composure at the moment, and he conveys his "thoughts" through mental power, which roughly means: "Who are you and where are you?" ”

But the space fell silent again, only the light became more and more hazy, and Ryan asked a few more words without giving up, but there was still no movement, making him wonder if he had heard it wrong.

As time passed, Ryan, whose spiritual power was rapidly consumed, had to retreat from the space, and the white candle flickered with orange firelight, reflecting on Ryan's pale cheeks.

Ryan was a little depressed, he now had the urge to throw away the ring, although he had seen many episodes of a white-bearded grandfather in the ring in his previous life, but this thing in his hand was obviously different, at most it was a milk baby.

And from the perspective of conspiracy theories, what if this is the soul of the Holy Lord who is not dead? Although there is no word for seizure in this world, there are similar secret techniques that people have to guard against.

After thinking about it, Ryan still stopped thinking about taking it off, if there was really any problem, he could find it in time if he brought it with him, and there was also a dragon crystal as a layer of insurance.

He also had a kind of luck in his heart, what if it was a good thing?

Time always passed inadvertently, and Archduke Douglas seemed to have forgotten about the decisive battle, and the tens of thousands of garrisons in Bald City never received any orders to attack again, and basically all stood by in place.

But this has no effect on Lord Lane, to be honest, he has already made a lot of military achievements this time, and he has also made a lot of money, even if he announces the withdrawal of the army now, he will definitely support it with both hands and feet.

It's just that the strategic way of attacking and not attacking and retreating like this makes Ryan wonder what kind of big move His Royal Highness the Grand Duke is holding back.

After all, hundreds of thousands of soldiers eat horses every day is not a small number, and all evil, ah no, good nobles are also idle, I don't know how many people have quietly gone out to fight the autumn breeze.

These people are like locusts crossing the border, and they are not necessarily much less harmful than the rebels.

"Alan, what do you say His Royal Highness plans to do next?"

On the school field, Ryan leaned against the pillar of the pergola, leisurely sucking the sweet sugar water, and asked Alan beside him.

Xi Yue, who had already recovered, was holding a special large silver cup in her hand, drinking sugar water "tons and tons", but a pair of pointed and slender ears were also pricked up, she was curious about when this battle would end, after all, she was really not very interested in this kind of fighting.

Allen was dressed in military uniform, looking at the sweaty soldiers on the school field with majestic eyes, and when he heard Ryan's words, he said without thinking: "The intelligence information is completely unequal, and I don't know what His Royal Highness thinks."

But as far as the current situation is concerned, our army has an absolute advantage, and His Royal Highness the Grand Duke's choice to start a war should be a problem that was not expected before, and this problem is very likely to affect the outcome of this battle, so until this problem is resolved, we should always hold our troops. ”

Ryan raised his eyebrows, Allen's speculation is reasonable, but what problem can make the Grand Duke of the Southern Realm, who has an army of hundreds of thousands, helpless?

Thinking about it, it may be the side of the Apostolic Council of the Evil Gods, and it is not impossible for those reptiles hiding in dark corners to make some big noise.

He suddenly laughed, and said half-jokingly: "If it can affect the success or failure of this kind of battle, those guys can't invite their gods, right?" ”

Levi and the others immediately laughed when they heard this, if they could really let the evil god descend, then there would be no need to fight this battle......

There were different opinions outside, and even some rumors had been circulated, but Grand Duke Douglas was in no mood to care about such a sesame grain-sized thing, because he was indeed in trouble.

Looking at the few people present, he suddenly felt a little irritable, and couldn't help but speak: "If you don't have any good opinions, then follow Benjue's plan, the rebels are already a cancer in the entire southern border, and every day of delay is a huge loss." ”

It was a very small secret meeting, with only a few people in the room, but all of them were noble lords.

Hearing his words, a middle-aged fat man in a fancy dress stood up, holding a handkerchief in his hand, and said with a smile while wiping the sweat on his head: "We can all understand Your Highness's feelings, but my majesty attaches great importance to this matter when it comes to that incident, and I have no choice but to do it." ”

Douglas glanced at him with some displeasure in his eyes, this fat man looked cowardly and incompetent, but in fact he was a sinister snake.

He has the status of a marquis of the court, and he is a close minister of Constantine II, and he not only has the intention of supervising the army in it, but also has a special mission given by His Majesty.

In any case, Douglas should not touch him, even if he is a grand duke, but he still does not want to clash head-on with the majestic king.

He had no choice but to say coldly: "Your Excellency Marquis, of course what Your Majesty explained is important, but counterinsurgency is the main issue at the moment, and you can do whatever you want after winning the war." There is no need to repeat this matter, it is so decided, and I will explain it to His Majesty in person. ”

The fat man saw Douglas's firm tone, and knew that this matter was no longer negotiable, so he had to sit down with a smile and start to close his eyes, but no one knew what he was thinking.

"What else do you have to say, Your Excellency the Overlord?" Douglas looked to the other side, where sat a kind old man, the overseer sent by the Holy See.

Hearing the inquiry of the Grand Duke of the Southern Territory, the overseer no longer insisted on his previous opinion, and said in a calm voice: "Then come according to the will of His Royal Highness the Grand Duke, but according to the agreement between us and His Majesty Constantine, please also ask His Royal Highness the Grand Duke to help us leave the evil artifact, and His Majesty the Pope attaches great importance to this." ”

Douglas didn't have any expression on his face, and he didn't refute his words, but emphasized: "According to the agreement, this time everything related to the Council of the Evil God Apostles will be handled by you, including the tricky guy who appeared recently. ”

The Overseer smiled and confidently replied, "Rest assured, Your Highness, the Lord is supreme, and so is the power He has bestowed, and so are the powers He has given, and we have followed the Lord's call, and those cultists will be purified in the power of the Lord." ”

Douglas snorted coldly, "I hope it's the same as you said." ”

Seeing that the two of them had relented, he didn't want to say anything more, lest he get into trouble.

After the secret meeting, the Grand Duke of the South summoned the commanders of the various sub-battlefields under his command together and issued a series of long-delayed battle orders.

The decisive battle has officially begun!

——————

The actions of the aristocratic coalition naturally couldn't hide from the rebels, and I saw that the black-robed man who had led the attack on Jinsui City before and finally failed to escape was sitting in the first place, and below was the black-robed man with a lot of water, and the aura on his body was extremely gloomy.

"Your Excellency, Douglas finally can't sit still, there are currently large-scale troop movements of garrisons in various parts of Telt County." A black-robed man reported in a calm tone.

The executive officer glanced at him lightly, changed his somewhat lazy posture and said, "Hmph, everything is going according to the original plan, you go down and prepare." ”

The black-robed man was ordered to retreat, and then the executive officer looked at another person, "Ergado, is your army of the undead ready to join this feast?" ”

"As you wish."

The black-robed man named Egador looked up, revealing a face that was half normal and half skeleton, and a pair of eyes with ghostly fire beating in them, and as soon as he opened his mouth, it was as if bones were rubbing, piercing and terrifying.

He was what Douglas called the tricky guy, an undead magician who was unusually rare, and he had reached the transcendent level.

Necromancers are a very special part of the group of magicians, they have always been hated and spurned by all parties, because what they do makes all races angry.

They often deal with the dead and take advantage of everything they have.

And where did the dead come from? Naturally, there are buried or unburied corpses everywhere, and they often steal the corpses of the powerful or nobles for some evil ritual or research.

At present, there are reasons why cremation is widely practiced in human countries. After all, the dead ancestor can be in the coffin, in the legend, in the oil painting, but he can't climb out of the coffin and appear in front of him and want to kill himself.

It's not a surprise but a thriller, no one wants to see this happen, so the necromancer becomes an existence that everyone shouts about, basically equating with the demon.

Despite this, no one has ever been able to deny the power and horror of necromancers, as they have always been known to be armies of one, simply because they can summon armies of undead who are ruthless killing machines.

And this necromancer named Egador is even more terrifying, he has reached the transcendent level, as long as he has enough materials, he can summon an almost endless army of undead, and it can be said that he is a bug-like existence on the battlefield, no wonder even the Grand Duke of the Southern Realm feels tricky, and he has to wait for the Holy See to relax before preparing to launch a decisive battle.

The executive was very satisfied, and he looked at the man again: "Inform the servants of the Lord that I need them to play their due role at a critical time, and if this battle is won, the entire southern realm will become our paradise."

The Lord can bring great power to the mortal world, and they will have whatever they want. And don't forget to reach out and tell them that the opportunity they've been waiting for has come.

In addition, I can feel that the soul of the Holy Lord is still there, find that person, and bring the soul of the Holy Lord back! ”

The executive's tone revealed a strong killing intent, the soul of the Holy Lord was originally an important hole card in this battle, but there was an accident in the middle.

If it's an extraordinary or legendary-level powerhouse, it doesn't matter, but what makes him unacceptable is that the other party is just a little person with no name.

The Holy Lord was actually cleaned up like this, and the cultists don't want to lose face? He's going to kill that guy anyway!

……

With the order of Grand Duke Douglas, the rebels have finally begun to slowly show their cards, and this battle will surely exceed everyone's expectations......

Bald City, because of the special care of Earl Donald, so the Lintonshire Army was not sent to the dangerous front line, but got an errand to defend the city.

No one thought that the rebels would be able to reach Bald, after all, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Therefore, defending the city is a real beauty, although they can't get the credit of beheading, but they can also get a military merit for defending the city, which is already very satisfactory for them.

Watching Count Donald lead the army on a mighty march, Alan was almost crying with envy on the city walls. Unlike the rest of the people, he longs to show his worth in the war, rather than wasting his time on such a meaningless thing as defending the city.

Ryan naturally understood his thoughts, but he didn't mean to fight for the battle, what kind of joke, the big scene on the main battlefield was also something they could mix?

Didn't see that Chels, who was eager to make meritorious contributions, didn't say that he wanted to take the initiative to go to the battlefield? What kind of big-tailed wolf do you charge, don't put your family into it if you don't get your military merits when you don't get it, then the gains outweigh the losses......

Two days later, on the plains of Terte County, the aristocratic coalition and the rebels collided without any fancy fancy, the battlefield was densely covered with flags, cold lights, war horses neighed, and the gathering of clouds made the sky dark.

In this battle, the number of rebels was nearly 100,000, and the aristocratic coalition army also exceeded 150,000, all of which were elites gathered from all sides.

On the surface, the aristocratic coalition had an absolute advantage, but Douglas knew in his heart that sometimes it was not only the living who needed to be warned, but also the dead.

Sure enough, with the sound of a trumpet, a strange army rushed out of the enemy line, this is a large army composed entirely of skeletons, and there are not only skeleton infantry, but also skeleton knights on skeleton horses, and real undead who have been given consciousness to mingle in it.

They rushed towards the army formation of the aristocratic coalition with a noisy sound, which immediately caused a small commotion, but fortunately, the knights of all armies used their motivational combat skills in time to suppress the fear in the hearts of the soldiers.

Grand Duke Douglas stood on the huge chariot, and he had expected this, so his affection did not change much, and he turned to the overseer on the side and said, "Your Excellency, it is time for you to do your duty. ”

The Overseer smiled, "As you wish." ”

With an order, the Judgment Legion in golden armor stepped forward with neat steps, lined up at the forefront, and the scriptures inscribed on their armor connected them into a whole, and the scriptures in the sky flew like a sea of gold.

Ergardo floated in mid-air, the white bone staff in his hand waved slightly, and a series of undead spells were unleashed by him:

Curse of Chaos

【Soul Rest】

【Resurrection of the Dead】

……

When these secret techniques fell in the sky above the Judgment Legion, the priests and priests of the Legion also began to perform their magic spells:

【Purification】

【Great Sacred Light Technique】

【Holy Light Shelter】

……

This is a war between the supreme evil god and the followers of the Lord of Light, and the army of the undead turns into a torrent and collides with the golden ocean, like a battle between two gods across space!
