Chapter 565: Profound Impact

The person who arranged the army was Catherine, who had just arrived at the army of the conquerors, not that she was the main player, but in this situation, the second only to Gavin was Veranica, normally, in the case that Gavin could not preside over it personally, she convened this kind of battlefield impromptu meeting, but her dual identity determined that when the first voter of the strategy lady was present, she had to listen to her opinion.

As soon as Catherine intervened, there was no chance for anyone else to speak, and everyone was convinced by her arrangement, she knew the expertise and abilities of these generals of the conqueror's army, and the tasks they arranged were perfect and comprehensive, and they only needed to carry out the plan.

"Your Excellency, you're back, what happened just now?"

"What about Ames? My lord, did you kill him completely? ”

"Was it Arms's trap just now? Dragged the lord into the shadow plane? ”

"When I just found out that the lord and the town hall were all gone, it almost scared us to death."

As soon as they saw the cover diploma appearing out of the air, everyone's eyes suddenly turned to him, and there was unconcealed concern and curiosity in it.

Compared to the nervous paladins and Tampas believers, the higher-ups on the side of the conqueror's army were not too surprised to hear that Gavin had suddenly disappeared under their heavy protection, because this event itself had been planned by them all alongβ€”to send Gavin to the necromancer and let them have a king-on-king.

They knew Gavin's strength and the hole cards he had, but the only thing they didn't expect was that the way it unfolded was so weird that not only did Gavin disappear, but even the town hall followed.

Before this, they had already started to speculate that eighty percent of the two were dragged into the shadow plane or the mezzanine, which was a common thing.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but pass over Gavin and land on the town hall that had reappeared with him.

The black mist that shrouded it had completely dissipated, revealing the stone body, which was blue-gray as a whole, and still exuded a cold aura, like a dormant super-giant monster, as if it wanted to swallow the enemy into its stomach.

Darnell, Villanica, Nora, and others who had been to the Land of the Three Rivers and seen the VizemΓ© Manor couldn't help but look at each other, because they sensed an extremely familiar feeling on it, and this was clearly a copy of the Vizeme Manor - not the shape, but the aura emanating from it.

Could it be that the lord has transformed this lair of the dead into the new Vizeme Manor?

Their guesses, though not true, are not far off, and are even more unique than they imagined.

Gavin explained lightly: "It wasn't exactly the other party's trap just now, but the shadow power I guided collided with the other party, and the derived devouring scramble involved both the enemy and me. ”

To back up his words, Gavin threw Arms' mutilated body out.

As for the matter of killing and destroying the demon mark and soul consciousness of the evil beast and demon, he didn't mention it too much, just make a fortune with some things, and everyone who doesn't need to do it knows it.

Even some of the middle and high-ranking members of the Conqueror's army only knew that Gavin controlled a legendary six-armed snake demon, but they didn't know that she had two forms, and they didn't know that Gavin had the ability to cut off the devil's mark and destroy the evil that could destroy those powerful evil spirits.

"Lord Lord is as strong as ever, an evil beast ghost with at least quasi-legendary strength, and he will kill him when he says it."

"Normal, this necromancer is afraid that he will not be able to exert his true strength against the Lord and the True Shadow Corps led by him, but the Lord Lord has his own unique advantages."

"In this way, we have won a great victory in this battle, and we have completely eradicated the evil of Ivantho."

Everyone was sincerely impressed, Gavin said it easily, but they couldn't understand it like this, after all, the other party was a quasi-legendary necromancer, or an evil beast ghost known for his insidious cunning, not only with great strength, but also good at all kinds of tricks, if you want to defeat him, it is not enough to have strength, but also to have enough wisdom.

Gavin looked at Catherine and said, "Ma'am, what's the situation on your side?" ”

Don't look at what he told Arms before, he swore an oath, as if he had seen the Goliath army led by Catherine get out of danger, it was just to hit the morale of the other party, and before seeing the final result, the whole person's heart was hanging.

Without waiting for Catherine to praise her, Kelissa on the side replied first: "This time, thanks to Ms. Catherine's anticipation of the enemy, after sensing that the city mist barrier was lifted by the lord, she immediately teleported us out of the underground, and there were no casualties, otherwise our entire army would be buried alive by this group of cunning undead." ”

As Gavin had guessed, Catherine was using the electorate's ability to line up and bring them out of the ground.

Their way, as the situation developed, changed from the main attack road to the decoy road, and the main purpose was to convince Arms that they had fallen for his plan, and from the beginning they did not bring much damage to the enemy, as long as they confused the other party and safely evacuated from it, it was the greatest victory.

The first voter of the strategist lady added: "It was not that I had calculated the enemy's plan, but I simply wanted to avoid the opponent's intentional layout, and I accidentally broke the opponent's trap. ”

"Anyway, it's thanks to the presence of a lady." Gavin thanked him sincerely, turned to Veranika and asked, "Did the capture process go well?" Has the opponent's undead transformation circle ever been activated? ”

His main concern was the latter, and once Arms transformed the citizens of Ivanthor on a large scale, even if they took Avansor, their victory would be greatly reduced.

"Regarding the undead transformation circle, what we received was false information, there is only an empty shell there, and it does not have the ability to quickly transform the entire city of Ivantil into undead, even if it is their death poison power, it is not as strong as we expected, just the life god can suppress it, and there is no need to take the antidote, Grace has been setting up a game for us from beginning to end, and the words of that evil person should not be believed." Villanica has always been distrustful of Grace, not to mention that now when there is actual evidence that she is not trustworthy, it is natural to belittle her.

Gavin corrected: "These bureaus were not set up by Grace, but by Ames, and she was kept in the dark all the time, she became a tool in the hands of Ames, and even her remaining kindness was used, because she did not die at my hands, and after she finished delivering the news to us, she was imprisoned by Ames with soul magic." ”

Seeing that Yesandara and Van Rena were not present, Gavin simply took out the crystal ball that imprisoned Grace and showed it to everyone.

"It is said that the devil is treacherous and untrustworthy, but I didn't expect it to be treacherous to such an extent, even the people around us have to use calculations, fortunately, we have to make many preparations, otherwise even if we are not killed by him, we will suffer heavy casualties."

Everyone couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and they had a deeper understanding of the ferocity and cunning of the devil.

"What about Lady Yesandala and her Avenger rebels?" Gavin asked.

"They're locals, and I've sent them to appease the citizens of Evantis." Catherine replied.

"Madame has arranged it very well." Gavin nodded, and took the opportunity to learn about the other arrangements Catherine had made before, all of which were meticulous and reasonable, even if he did it himself, so naturally he would not make any changes.

The number of casualties that Gavin was most concerned about was quickly counted, there were no civilian casualties, and there were hundreds of casualties among the besieging soldiers, many wounded and few casualties, all of them were resurrected on the spot, which can be called no casualties.

And the casualties on Ivanao's side are heavy, those spirit undead, because only a pile of ghost dust is left after death, it is easy to mix or lose, there is no way to fully count, anyway, the ghost dust collected by the army of conquerors has been measured in kilograms, under normal circumstances, this thing is based on grams, theoretically, an undead spirit produces a maximum of twenty-three grams of ghost dust, which is the highest weight of the soul, generally one gram of life dice, until it reaches the theoretical upper limit.

The number of those skeleton soldiers, zombies and other cannon fodder has reached three thousand, and this thing has no value except for incineration and landfilling, so naturally no one cares about their specific number.

The second is that as an elite bone claw, there are all kinds of them, including the bag that Gavin killed in the Phantom Duel, there are more than hundreds, and all the corpse remains are dragged back to Misnoel by the Phantom and stored separately.

If the refining method of the bone claw can be developed in the future, it may have reuse value.

As long as it doesn't involve the indignation of people and gods like living research, in Faerun, the kind of use of corpses, especially monster corpses, to make undead soldiers can be reluctantly tolerated and accepted in most areas, but in a few areas, especially in cities where the forces of justice and goodness are dominant, doing so is purely uncomfortable.

Vizeme Manor destined Gavin to be inseparable from the undead, and the battle of Evangel proved that even the power of death can be used for good causes, and it also has its own unique advantages, since they have already made a good start, Gavin and they naturally want to make full use of this.

In addition, there were nearly a thousand casualties among the ordinary citizens of Ivanaso, mainly those who were driven to the city walls by Avansor's undead commander, assisting in the operation of the city's defense equipment, and being accidentally injured while being held hostage.

There is no way to avoid this, the only thing that can be done is to treat as much as possible afterwards to reduce the mortality rate, and more than 600 people have died.

Even so, the entire population of Evanthor welcomed the army of the conquerors.

The dead rule over the living.

This is something that completely goes against the laws of normal.

Even if Arms and the others tried their best to show a fair and strict posture in Ivanaor in order to maintain their disguise, it was just the surface, and it was still the kind of high-pressure terrorist reign in their bones.

They only need Avansel to maintain a semblance of stability, but they don't care about the happiness index of citizens and the like.

On top of that, perennial mixing with the undead has caused their bodies and souls to be eroded by negative energy to varying degrees, which has led to a series of problems.

For example, many citizens are weak and sick, especially negative energy-related diseases, once the outbreak is large-scale, and it will not heal for a long time, and it is impossible for any good priest here to cast healing spells on them.

Another example is that the old, weak, sick and disabled are more likely to die, and the possibility of being transformed into undead after death has increased significantly, these citizens of Ivanaor have no chance to bury their relatives, and those dead citizens are all taken away by the official, and they know that they must have been transformed into undead, which is also the reason why Ames has so many ghosts, most of them are Avansor's original citizens.

In addition, there are a series of problems, such as a sharp decline in the fertility rate and a significant increase in the infant mortality rate.

There was no need for Gavin to ask for it, and the paladins led by Darnell would automatically help the citizens of Ivanthor to purify and heal, which was their sacred duty.

And Anna, who has been promoted to the quartermaster of the conqueror's army, is also not far behind, leading the entire conqueror's army of priests and medical personnel, busy with the treatment and relief of diseases regardless of return, although this has spread their belief in gods, but also earned a lot of good reputation for the conqueror's army, many citizens who have been afraid of Ivantil, directly chose to join the conqueror's army, ready to leave this place together.

This is also an expected gain.

The news that the conqueror's army had captured Ivantor in only half a day and swept away the necromancers here was like wings, and it not only spread throughout the Dragon Coast in a very short time, but even across the sea, to the Cormier Kingdom, to Sambia, and to the valley.

……

The capital of Sambia, Aldurin, Great Hall.

Another emergency meeting was convened, to which the whole of Aldurin was accustomed to it, for in recent times there had been a number of frequent meetings of merchants, and there was only one issue to be discussed: the flooding of the Al Shaba.

This year's rainy season in Comanso has been extraordinarily long and rainy, far exceeding the usual maximum level and catching up with last year's rains, which were not normal, involving the turmoil caused by the arrival of the gods and the revenge of the gods of nature against Sambia.

The impact of last year's Ashaba River breach on Sambia has not yet subsided, and many businessmen still remember the scene vividly.

Therefore, this time, the Sambian Merchant Council was unprecedentedly united and efficient, organizing and mobilizing a large number of citizens and mercenaries to go to the dangerous section of the river to strengthen the dam and defend the embankment, and successfully prevented the danger of the embankment from bursting more than a dozen times.

Only this time, it was not the danger of the Ashaba River bursting that caused them to hold an emergency meeting, but the news from the other side of the lake.

"We must not allow such a large number of immigrants to reach the Battle Valley smoothly and enter the Land of Three Rivers, what have we been able to firmly suppress the valley over the years?

It is the blood-sucking and splitting tactics formulated by our founders that continuously suck blood from the valleys, transforming their populations into our populations, absorbing their wealth into our wealth, creating contradictions between the valleys, so that they have no way to unite.

They have never been able to grow their population, limiting their ceiling, leaving them with no way to fight us.

But if this army of conquerors were to return to the Vale, it would completely tear apart our core tactics.

Their common origins and large-scale immigration will make them much more united than ordinary people, and it will be much more difficult to divide them, and it will be difficult for us to use them.

And their number is too terrifying, enough to top the total number of people in half of the valleys, once they really migrate, whether they want to or not, the surrounding valleys will definitely be led by them.

Moreover, the geographical advantage of the land of the three rivers is too good, and with the help of the Ashaba River, he can influence and control seven or eight sub-valleys.

You have all seen the means and abilities of that young knight, and if he is given a certain amount of time, he will be able to fulfill the wish that Anka, the king of cloaks, has not been able to fulfill, and he may become the king of the valley.

When the time comes, where will we go from Sambia? ”

It was none other than Councillor Candrick, who had changed his relatively moderate attitude towards the Land of the Three Rivers and the Vizeme estate to become an out-and-out pro-militant.

His attitude was not even a change, and he chose to treat the newly rising knight in the valley with that attitude, because the other party was not even a hidden danger, at best he was a relatively powerful target of embezzlement.

It is not a wise choice to devour this kind of life, and it is the wisest choice to use a soft knife or what they are best at to win over corruption, turn it into one of them, and use their best political game to play each other to death.

It is not uncommon for the plutocratic ruling class in Sambia to lose their lives and plunder, and it is not uncommon for the winner to get everything and the loser to be purged out of the ruling class.

It's just that this kind of plundering is not carried out at will, but under certain rules, and their merchant council is the maker, guardian and user of this rule.

But now the situation is different, Gavin, with an army of conquerors, is already a real threat to Sambia, especially their cannibalization plan in the valley.

"Councillor Candrik put it simply, what can we do to stop such an armed group of immigrants? A city that has been run by necromancers for many years can't even stop them for half a day, let alone a field battle. ”

"That's right, now even Simon is thinking about how to protect himself and how to drive them away, instead of gathering all his forces to fight against them and completely defeat them, the local forces of the Dragon Coast are still like this, what can we do across the Dragon Lake? If you send ordinary mercenaries over, I am afraid that like the last time, the mercenaries will also be defeated and reorganized by them and become part of their forces. ”

"They don't have to do it on the Dragon's Shore, there are only two ways to get back to the valley."

"Which two paths are there?"

Let's get a ticket, and the recommended ticket is also high!
