Chapter 250: Underground Alliance
On the Sistier Plains of Drowliven, Fell, the commander of the expeditionary force of the Duchy of Nissya, seemed to calmly look at the powerful ragtag army in front of him, but his heart was churning.
In mid-November, the young prince succeeded his father who died of sudden illness and became the new king, and at the same time married a commoner girl as the queen for the first time - although the identities of the two sides were very different, the appearance of the silver-haired girl captivated the city and the country for the first time to block the mouths of all the old nobles who conformist.
As a warrior, Fell did not care about the violent death of the old king, who was suspicious, after all, this kind of thing was commonplace in any era. He simply faithfully fulfilled his duties as commander of the Praetorian Guard, and forcefully suppressed any opponents and ill-intentioned opponents when the king ascended the throne.
But Fell did not expect that what everyone was waiting for was not the peace of the country, but the edict of the expedition.
When the vanguard was ordered to invade the Birea Empire, Phil only thought that he must be having a nightmare, but the subsequent report shocked Fell: undead creatures, giant ghouls, and terrifying infectious powers! When did the Duchy of Nisiye master this forbidden power? What is even more outrageous is that it has cruelly turned all the soldiers of the vanguard into unsane monsters!?
So when the young king ordered Fell to lead his troops to reinforce the army of the undead, the latter secretly kept an eye on it.
He actually ordered the burning of the grain and grass sent by the king, and then the whole army received only three days' dry rations in the base and hurried into the territory of the Birea Empire.
Yesterday Feuil caught up with the army of the undead stationed on the Plains of Sisdell, and met the undead's manipulators: a man with black hair and a grim face and an evil aura all over his body, who seemed to have Eastern Continent ancestry, or more precisely, a teenager - at least on the outside.
The meeting between the two sides was extremely unpleasant, and in the end the two broke up. Although Phil hated the black hair, the king's previous order to him was to reinforce and cooperate with the other party, so Phil took the initiative to ask Ying to patrol the surrounding area - in fact, it was out of sight and out of mind.
Today is the last day, and from tomorrow Fell and his men will have to hunt for a living on the plains. It was then that they were confronted by a ragtag army of the Birea Empire.
In fact, the other party is not an official army of the empire, not even the lord's private army, at most it can only be regarded as a guard formed spontaneously by the local people. But if there are a large number of dwarves, centaurs, minotaurs, harpies, and even evil eyes in this team, no one can treat the other party as a passing by, right?
"When did the Birea Empire become a paradise for underground creatures?" Fell muttered to himself.
"Your Excellency, are you going to prepare for battle?" asked the adjutant.
Fell pursed his lips disdainfully: "Forget it, isn't there a more suitable opponent than our soldiers for the group of strange creatures on the other side?" ”
The lieutenant apparently didn't have a good impression of the man who manipulated the undead, and he happily carried out Fell's order.
On the opposite side, Möller, who was standing at the front, looked at the Nissier army as it suddenly turned and left the battlefield, and was so surprised that even the hammer in his hand slipped - the latter slammed into Mohler's feet, causing him to roll on the ground.
"If Alicia's little girl were here, you'd be laughed to death by her. The loyal and honest Arhan couldn't help but say.
Peacock Dance, who was in charge of reconnaissance, descended from the sky: "They have indeed all evacuated, and they have not set traps or ambushes or anything. What the hell is the commander of this force thinking?"...,
Moeller snorted and got up and said, "Whatever, we just need to protect our new home." Now that the enemy has retreated, I think we should go home, right?"
"No, it cannot be ruled out that this is not a trick of the enemy. Peacock Dance shook his head and raised his paws to call, "Gray Ling, you can take a few sisters to investigate in the distance, maybe the other party wants us to relax and kill back." ”
The sound of heavy footsteps reached everyone's ears, but it was the tall Minotaur chief Mutaro who stepped forward with a battle axe: "I smell the rancid smell from the wind. Peacock Dance, let your people go upwind and see what evil is likely to be there. ”
Peacock Dance nodded at Gray Feather, who immediately flew into the sky with a few banshees, and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
"Speaking of which, the environment here is really good. "And it's surprising that human technology has developed in a few moments. I thought we were going to spend the winter on the way to the migrator, but I didn't expect that girl from Alysia to ...... What's that tin can called?"
"Trains. "What a marvelous invention, and the look on the faces of Arad and his people at that time could be described as fanatical." They can't have actually secretly dismantled a train when we're not looking, right?"
Everyone could not help but shudder as they imagined a horde of fanatical goblins wielding tools to tear down the delicate human train to a ground full of tatters.
Fortunately, this embarrassing scene did not last long, and Gray Ling quickly returned with a nervous expression: "Oh no, we found an army of undead not far away, and there was a giant ghoul nearly 30 meters high in it! Among the undead, there are many soldiers wearing the armor of the Birea Empire, and the Imperial forces are likely to be defeated!"
The news was so bad that everyone couldn't help but frown.
"Are they the ones who prompted the Nissier army to leave?" asked Peacock Dance, "Grey Feather, are the undead showing signs of attacking?"
"No, Patriarch. But I saw a huge blood-red magic array on the ground in the middle of the army of the undead, which was almost complete. ”
"The other side must be working on some kind of plan. Arhan began, "Shall we stop them?"
Moeller jumped up on the spot, although he was not as tall as Uncle Centaur when he jumped, but at least the momentum was enough: "Fighting the undead in the wild? Are you crazy!?"
"But if we don't do anything, we're going to end up in disaster. It's the same as the previous time when the demon built a portal in our original home. The Evil Eye King, who had finally crawled over, was holding a large wooden plank and dangling it back and forth in front of everyone's eyes.
Peacock Dance nodded: "Then vote on whether to attack the other party." I vote in favour. ”
Arhan then followed: "I also vote for it." ”
"May our ancestors bless us. Mutaro prayed slightly, "I'm in favor of stopping the other party's plan." ”
The Evil Eye King (holding up the plank): "Yes." ”
Moller snorted and carried the war hammer to his shoulder: "I agree with it too! Anyway, I have already saved the world once, and it doesn't matter if I try again." Anyway, this is the Human Empire, is their supposedly powerful army all playing soy sauce!?"
Badsa, who had already led his troops into Wembot City, sneezed hard.
The proposal was unanimously approved, and even Arad sent people to ask for help from the humans while sending a magical steam chariot operated by a brave goblin warrior to help. Of course, Peacock Dance has reservations about whether the iron guys, who sway around every ten meters and clank and drop many parts, will be able to remain intact and not fall apart after firing the Crystal cannon - and even whether they will be able to make it to the battlefield without exploding in the middle of the road. ...,
But even if these so-called chariots fall apart, at least those miniaturized magic crystal cannons can still be used as one-handed cannons by the Minotaurs, which is how the Minotaur Machine Gunners came about.
After a short march, the army of the undead appeared in everyone's field of vision. The ghoul with a stature clearly of the foul class was particularly eye-catching.
The other party apparently also discovered this group of uninvited guests, and the undead suddenly became in a commotion, roaring towards the coalition forces without any formation, eager to eat their flesh and blood immediately.
But the first thing the undead ate was an overwhelming array of dynamic light waves.
The evil eye, known as the nightmare of the magical girl, stared desperately and affectionately at the strange rotten bones and rotten flesh on the other side, and the eyes were so gentle that they seemed to be looking at their lover. Such a strange scene Rao has been with the evil eyes for half a year, and Peacock Dance and the others still can't help but sweat coldly.
When your sister emits a dynamic light wave, can you change it to a fierce look, as if she has seen an enemy who does not share the sky!? It's okay to change this kind of affectionate and veinous eyes to refuse and welcome you, and with the whole shiny and bright big eyes that can talk, what does it mean to look at the enemy without even blinking, hey!?
Countless undead fell to the ground under the affectionate gaze of the Evil Eye—Peacock Dance believed that they were defeated by passive light waves, and they definitely didn't vomit because they couldn't stand the shy and charming gaze of the Evil Eye, absolutely not!
Well, as eerie as the spectacle may be, at least the rows of fallen moving corpses show that the light of the Evil Eye is far more lethal to the undead than a human bow and crossbow.
The peacock danced its wings and flew up and shouted: "The minotaur stands in the front row, the dwarf follows closely, the centaur covers the wings, the harpy harasses in mid-air, and the goblin...... Uh, attacking the opponent's backup. Let's take action and let these guys who are covered in tatters and can't breathe know that there are not only humans in this world!"
Mutaro clenched his grip on the battle axe and let out a loud roar as he looked up to the sky. The entire coalition army was touched by it, and they also roared in unison.
The two sides launched a hedge against each other on the vast plains!
