Chapter 907: Xingshi asks for guilt
A calm night.
Tents are scattered almost all over the Hengros Plain, and since Adele won the Battle of Hengross, the Hengros Plain has become the world of the "Scourge Army".
Inside the camp, bonfires were lit, and the undead soldiers gathered in twos and threes, eating dinner, talking about the fierce battle of the day, and from time to time there were one or two groans of pain in the closed tents.
"Lord Adele!"
"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief!"
Adele walked past the camp, the undead soldiers of the "Scourge Legion" stood up and saluted, their expressions were full of respect, Adele nodded lightly, it was her habit to inspect the camp defense at night, if she was attacked by the enemy at night, it would be over.
"What's going on over there?"
Adele asked lightly, now she has a majesty in her gestures.
"Report to your lordship, there is no movement in the Forgotten City!"
An undead assassin saluted and replied, "But I was discovered by the other party as soon as I approached the city wall, and I finally escaped back!"
Adele looked the undead assassin up and down, and saw the scars on his body that had just recovered, before nodding, "Go down!"
"Yes, Lord Adele!"
The undead assassin saluted and turned to leave, and Adele looked in the direction of the Forgotten City with a thoughtful look on her face.
"Why hasn't that Ron shown up yet?"
Remembering that Ron called himself the "Lich King", Adele was unwilling to be a little jealous, but then she gritted her teeth and secretly resolved that whether he was the Lich King or not, she must kill that guy.
At this time, an undead woman walked up to Adele and said with a blank face, "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, Miss Scarlett, please come over!"
"Scarlett?"
The person who came was Scarlett's maid, but Adele didn't have a good impression of Scarlett, shook her head and said, "You go back and tell Lord SΓΉ that I'm patrolling the camp and I'm not available!"
Seeing Adele's refusal, the expression on the maid's face still did not change, "Miss Scarlett said, it's not her intention to ask you to come over, but ......"
"His Majesty the Divine Emperor wants to see me?"
Adele was taken aback when she heard the maid speak, and she muttered, "Lead the way!"
The maid led Adele to a huge luxury tent, lifted the curtain, made a gesture of invitation, and Adele walked in with her head held high.
This is Scarlett's temporary tent, the furnishings in the tent are somewhat simple, a bed, a table, Scarlett was sitting on the ground, saw Adele walk in, stood up, and looked at her with a smile.
"Your Majesty is here, you can explain it to him personally!"
Is Majesty coming?
Adele frowned, she couldn't understand what Scarlett meant, His Majesty the God Emperor was far away in Icecrown Castle, how could he come to the battlefield where the two sides were fighting?
However, Scarlett did not explain to her, and turned and went out.
"Canopy-"
At this moment, a black mist suddenly rose on the table, and Adele saw that a rudimentary magic array was depicted on the table.
The black fog became more and more, gradually transforming into the appearance of a person.
"His Majesty the Divine Emperor!"
When Adele saw this, she immediately knelt down and saluted.
It wasn't the Cataclysmic God Emperor who came, but just a clone of the God Emperor.
"Get up!"
The God Emperor Fismarck was wearing a pale cyan robe and appeared in front of Adele in the form of a phantom, he glanced at Adele up and down, and said lightly.
"Why stop attacking, Adele, I think you'll have to give me an explanation!"
As soon as Adele heard it, it turned out that Scarlett had already reported the whole matter to His Majesty the Divine Emperor, and she could imagine how Scarlett had told this in front of His Majesty the Divine Emperor, and she could hear that His Majesty had a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone when he questioned her.
"That's right, His Majesty the God Emperor!"
Adele stood up and explained the ins and outs of the matter to the Scourge God Emperor, the reason why she stopped the attack was that she couldn't figure out the details of the other party, second, the army needed to rest after a series of fierce battles, and third, she fought with the Spider Empress Rose, although she was lucky to defeat the other party, but it was also a great loss, so she stopped the pursuit after winning the Battle of Hengross.
Adele is good at summarizing, and even the God Emperor can't find any mistakes after a few points.
The Scourge God Emperor was a very suspicious person, and even if Adele explained it clearly, he couldn't let go, and Ron's appearance confused him.
For the past 100,000 years, Fismarck has always regarded himself as the heir of Herimus, although he lacks the Scourgeon Scepter as a token, but no one is more qualified to inherit this position than Saruman, Tito, and Rose, except for this Ron who came out of nowhere, holding the Scourgeon Scepter and challenging his status, which is absolutely intolerable to Fismarck.
In Vismarck's eyes, the newly emerged Ron was more dangerous than Saruman, who had been at war for 100,000 years, and he went out of his way to conquer the Forgotten City, but Tito refused this great mission on the grounds that he would never do anything to the Lich King, much to the chagrin of the Fismarck Emperor.
Although Herimus has been dead for 100,000 years, he still has great prestige among the undead.
Fismarck muttered, "No matter what, the army must speed up, I gave you so many troops, not to see the scenery in the Hokan District!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Adele replied stubbornly, as the supreme commander of the Scourge Legion's front, she was a little dissatisfied with the intervention of His Majesty the Divine Emperor.
"Hmm!" Fismarck nodded faintly, he glanced at Adele, "By the way, when you were fighting today, did you see that human named Ron, what is his strength, is he holding a scourge scepter in his hand?"
Adele was stunned, hesitated, and shook her head, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty the God Emperor, I didn't see that human, and I didn't know any Scourgeal Scepter!"
"The Scourge's Scepter is a one-of-a-kind artifact, it has four large skulls, and each skull has a string of small skulls hanging from it, and when fighting, these skeletons will turn and make strange sounds......" Fismarck carefully described the appearance of the Scourge's Scepter to Adele, and at this time, there was a look of fanaticism in his eyes, "Adele, if you see it, you must bring it back to me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Fismarck nodded in satisfaction, "Adele, the commander of this war was supposed to be Tito, but he recommended you to me, so I hope you can fight this battle well, and when you return triumphantly from the Forgotten City, I will be on the throne of Icecrown Castle...... I give you the highest honor!"
Adele was so excited that she immediately knelt down on one knee, "Yes, Adele will definitely live up to the expectations of His Majesty the God Emperor!"
Fismarck encouraged Adele a few more times before she turned into a black mist and disappeared......
......
In the Forgotten City, the lights were bright all night, and groups of undead soldiers walked through the streets, and curfews were imposed on the streets, and all the undead nerves were tense, ready for a sudden war.
In the Hall of the Dead, Rose, Char, Cronia and the others were silent, and the millions of undead armies in the Hengros Basin were stationed there, like a big stone, weighing heavily on everyone's hearts.
"No news from Ron yet?"
Rose opened her eyes and asked, waving her hand for the necromancer beside her to step back.
"Nope!"
"If he comes back...... I will not sit idly by in today's situation!"
"It's my fault!"
Rose's face was full of apologies, "If I tell him the name of that god-level beast, maybe it won't ......"
"Forget it!"
Seeing that Rose was working so hard today, Char's only prejudice against Rose also disappeared, and she sighed, "There are many things that cannot be predicted, and you don't have to take it to heart!"
Although the main plane of the undead is very large, there are many strange beasts, in order to expand the living space, it is also very necessary to destroy those powerful strange beasts, and Ron and the undead dragon will also have a battle sooner or later.
"Thank you!"
Rose glanced at Char, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes, although her hands had grown, her demeanor was a little sluggish, and her strength still hadn't recovered.
Cronia looked at the two of them and breathed a sigh of relief, "What is in front of us now, what should we do next?"
"What else can I do? I'm going to do another one tomorrow and let those guys taste my Rose!"
Rose snorted coldly, and the slightest murderous intent appeared on her face, she didn't fail to beat Adele, but she was just a little careless, and today's failure made her extremely unwilling.
"No way!"
Rose's mention was vetoed by Char.
"Although the enemy's strength is similar to ours, their strength is more than double ours, and it is really a loss to charge us head-on!" Char shook his head, "My construction is to rely on the favorable terrain of the Forgotten City to defend!"
"Defense?"
Cronia pondered for a moment, thinking that this was also a solution, the Forgotten City had built so many towers of ghosts and webs, if the other party dared to come, whether it was in the sky or underground, it would be enough to make them drink a pot.
"That's a good idea, too!" said Cronia.
"The defense is good, but it's too passive!" Rose frowned, "Don't forget, the Forgotten City is our main city, and even if it can withstand the enemy's attack, the buildings in the city, as well as the inhabitants of the city, will inevitably suffer. β
"Of course I know!" Cronia sighed, "but now, there is really no other way, the enemy is too strong, six million troops, even if they fill it with people, it is estimated that it can fill ......"
"With Fismarck's character, it's not surprising to do this!" Rose touched her chin, a thoughtful look on her face, "It seems that the appearance of Ron and the Scourge's Scepter made him unable to sit still!"
"Now I can only defend the Forgotten City, and then wait for Ron to come back!" Char sighed, she hesitated, moved her mouth, and finally said, "If there is really no way, then the only way is to give up the Forgotten City!"
"Abandoning the Forgotten City?"
Everyone's hearts sank when they heard this, and they all knew what it meant to give up the Forgotten City, and their faces were clouded with a layer of sadness.
