Chapter 248: Tomorrow is the key
The smoke and dust gradually cleared, and to everyone's despair, the ghoul who had been hit head-on with a volley of magic crystal cannons was only beaten to pieces. For an undead, it's a common thing to have their skin peeled open and something - provided it has flesh on its body.
It looked as if a normal ghoul had been hit by a dwarf's less powerful musket.
"Whewββ!" The wounded ghoul roared angrily, and crawled towards the scuffling team in the center of the battlefield even more quickly.
"The Crystal Cannon Force will continue to attack and don't stop until the other party falls!" Badessa ordered loudly, calming the somewhat flustered soldiers nearby, "Adjutant, give the order for the Sword and Shield Soldiers to come back." I always had a feeling of uneasiness in my heart. β
"Are you going to abandon the cavalry units!?" asked the adjutant in horror.
"In the face of undead creatures that can infect living beings, it is useless to surround up many people. Badessa closed his eyes and said bitterly, "I don't want to cause more damage." Adjutant, carry out the order!"
β...... Yes, Your Excellency!"
Braving the storm of crystal cannons and mages, the ghouls finally arrived in the middle of the battlefield. There, the cavalry had been wiped out, and only a few strong men were left to resist and retreat to their positions.
The ghoul suddenly shook his body, causing countless green unknown liquids to fly down and stick to the corpses of the dead.
Then they staggered back to their feet, their iron-blue skin and godless eyes indicating their identity as undead zombies.
"What the hell is this!?" Badessa almost gritted his teeth in hatred, "There has never been a record of this kind of monster in the historical records! Notify the whole army to retreat, and the precious magic crystal cannon and mage must be evacuated first, and a part of the sword and shield soldiers must be separated. β
"Your Excellency, where are we withdrawing?"
"Weinbot City. It's the Harris family's main city, and if it becomes a paradise for the dead, we'll all be unable to eat and walk around. Badessa shook his head speechlessly and said, "It's a good thing that Locklip kid isn't there when he's sailing out on a boat, otherwise I wouldn't have known how to explain it to him." β
"Your Excellency, though Lord Locklip is away, I have heard that his sister Alicia Harris is living in Wimbot City because of the winter vacation at the Garden of Hope. β
"Uh......"
=============================I'm =============================== dividing line
"You mean the Emperor has been defeated?" asked Alicia in shock. "It's only the third day, could it be that the soldiers of the Nisiye Army were all raised in chicken blood since childhood?"
Ann wiped a cold sweat and said, "That's right. Miss. Detectives reported that the Nisiya troops were actually undead creatures, and that behind them was a giant ghoul nearly 30 meters tall. General Badsa's crystal cannon and mage troops didn't do much damage to the ghoul, and after the undead eliminated the cavalry trying to tear the formation apart, the ghoul turned the cavalry's corpses into zombies. Seeing this, General Badessa immediately retreated, and was expected to arrive early tomorrow morning. β
"I see. You go down first, and then come and let me know if there is any situation. Alicia waved her hand.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became oppressive, and even Remy couldn't help but put down the lollipop and showed a weak expression.
"That gigantic ghoul is definitely Mu's servant creature," Lori said, covering her forehead, "From the current information, it has the characteristics of high blood resistance and the ability to transform the undead. Does anyone have any idea what can be done against it?"...,
Night, who was in the middle of a fierce battle with the mercury lantern, suddenly flew the map, stood up, ran to Alicia, clenched her fists and made a burning shape. Little Lori glanced at the chairman with a familiar expression on his face and said leisurely: "Say, how many lollipops are left?"
The fighting spirit of the whole body burned like a substance, and when the little black dragon heard this, it immediately hung down, and countless black lines turned gray and white, and hid in the corner of the ORZ.
Michelle, who was leaning on Elijah's shoulder and pretending to sleep, suddenly turned into Herthtier. The little demigod Lori sat straight into Elija's arms and nodded her lips and said, "The concubine thinks that this creature is just a pathfinder scout sent by Mu. Even if Mu Cai had not awakened for a long time, his strength should not be weak enough to only serve a creature of this strength. He's mostly retaining his strength for some other kind of plan. β
[A creature that makes the emperor ** team run away in embarrassment is actually just a scout of the other party in your eyes? You can't defeat it with an ordinary army. Woo, Bai was deducted 1000 bonus points......]
Alicia shook her head and shook off the distractions in her mind, and said, "If we are dealing with undead creatures, the more people there are, the worse it is. In this way, when the uncle named Badsa comes, I will ask him to defend the city, and a few of us will go to test the strength of the monster. β
"Temptation?" Hertshetier glanced at Lori and sneered, "Isn't Ru Mo planning to destroy the other party?"
"Aha. Is it visible?" little Lori grinned as she grabbed the back of her head.
"It's not impossible. Hiltier's eyes narrowed comfortably as Elijah lifted it above her head, "If only that was the creature." Our combat power is definitely more than enough. As long as you are careful not to be attacked by Mu, it won't take much time to eliminate those miscellaneous soldiers. β
"Then it's settled!" said Alicia. "When the army arrives tomorrow, we'll set off immediately!"
[Damn, time is really urgent. Just now, the damn pseudo-main god issued the second phase of the mission, and it actually said that it was to prevent Mu from opening the plane passage on the Sisder Plain and entering the Nether Void. Judging from the current situation, Mu should have followed the undead army to command them, and now he is most likely preparing to open the dimensional passage. If I don't succeed this time, I'm going to get 2000 bonus points deducted again and then be erased - okay, erasing or something is just kidding, but it's true that the bonus points will become negative. God knows what kind of punishment that ghost beast Lolicon will take the opportunity to propose......]
"Hello!" Locklip sneezed viciously.
Alicia's doppelganger looked at him indifferently: "Which girl is you worried about?"
"Nope. I think it's your body that's saying bad things about me behind my back again. Rocklip rubbed his nose and said, "It's all too common. β
There was a knock outside the door, and Misaki Sawasawa opened the door and said respectfully, "Master, Mikoto Misaka and the others are here." β
"Oh, just in time. Locklip stood up, "I'll pick them up." β
"I have a question for you. My dear brother. The clone grabbed the corner of Locklip's coat and said, "Although tomorrow is the day of the Comic Con." But that doesn't excuse you to trick a bunch of girls into staying at your house and explaining that it's easy to act together the next day, are you?
"Don't talk nonsense. Locklip hurriedly said, "I'm a very loving person!"
"Do you love to hide the 18X game disc in the closet, and the C drive of the computer stores a large number of river crabs disguised as system files?"
Locklip looked back suddenly: "How do you know!?"
"Sensa found out when she was cleaning your room and told me quietly. β
Locklip turned to the student council president next to him, who was weakly shrinking his head: "Then, Misaki Usawa." β
"Yes!" Usawa hurriedly stood straight, the expression on his face as if he was about to be righteous.
"......" Locklip was silent for a moment, then spoke. "What do you think of my taste?"
The doppelganger made a mistake on the couch on the spot: "Wait a minute, shouldn't your current lines be 'you're fired' or 'hush money is enough' or something like that!?
Misaki Sagasawa stared at Locklip with twitching eyes, and finally couldn't help but say for a while: "Master, your festival is broken." β
"No, Senior Sister Suzawa, this guy's discipline is not broken, but it is no longer there at all!"
A head timidly peeked out of the door. It was the early spring ornament: "That...... Because no one came out for a long time, we came in without permission. But you guys seem to be busy, why don't we go to the door and wait?"
"No, no, no, ladies and gentlemen, please come in quickly. Locklip hurriedly greeted, "Just now I just had a small disagreement with my little sister on some opinions. I'm sorry for slacking you all over this. β
"Excuse me. The little girls greeted politely as they entered the house.
The clone looked at them carefully: the lineup was the same as the last time I came here to catch up with the draft, there were no changes. But what about Tearful's careful attempt to avoid Locklip's gaze?
Locklip also noticed this, and he smiled unhesitantly: "Girls, it's a blessing to have come from afar. Cool down with a drink and then let Tsusawa take you to your room. There are many rooms in the villa, so you can use them as you like, so you're welcome. If you have anything you would like to drink, please feel free to let us know. β
In the midst of the little girls' gossip, Locklip came to Tears. smiled kindly, "What do you want to drink?"
"Ah, Mr. Locklip!" the tears were filled with excitement. "Don't bother, you can do anything. β
"I guess what she really wants is a potion of wolf proof, right?" the clone leaned over and laughed.
"Hey. β
The doppelganger continued to say unrelentingly: "Nana. Sister Tears, be careful when you sleep tonight. My ghost brother is going to attack you at night, don't you be pushed down?"
"Hey, give me enough to stop!"
