"Captain Wang Ke, this person said that you chose to help him, did I hear me right?

Half of the people focused their eyes on Wang Ke, they didn't choose to take Wang Ke directly, after all, they have been a member of the city defenders for so many years, and they prefer to listen to Wang Ke himself.

"Literally, I'm a waste, I haven't been able to break through the Holy Spirit for more than ten years, but I'm also a father, maybe some of you can give up your family and even your own lives for honor, but I can't. ”

There was a moment of silence, followed by angry scolding, and I don't know who kicked Wang Ke in the back and kicked him to the ground, Wang Ke felt guilty, he had no intention of resisting, he was bent on atonement for his sins with death, and closed his eyes in the face of the approaching sword.

"You just want to die like this, aren't you afraid that I will break the contract?"

The puppet sneered and unfolded the scroll in his hand, it was more than three meters long, floating in front of him, it was not a spirit array, it was covered with irregular bloodstains, he stretched out his hand to brush it, the originally dry blood stains became moist and dripping, and the flow soaked the entire scroll.

Pieces of ash scattered.

In just an instant, the dozens of defenders surrounding the puppet and Wang Ke fell to the ground in pain, their skin scorched and peeled off, as if they were scorched by invisible fire, and after wailing a few times, there was no more sound, only armor and weapons and ashes on the ground remained.

"What's going on? What's wrong with them?"

"What's this thing on your face?"

"You've got it on your face, you've got it on your hands!"

Fear spread like a tidal wave, their faces and arms were covered with gray patterns, like tiny blood vessels, some people took off their armor only to find that their stomachs and thighs were also full of gray patterns, they all looked at the ashes on the ground, and the fear in their hearts was instantly magnified to the extreme.

"Don't worry, this spell was created by me, and naturally there is a way to unravel it, provided that you are still alive, or that sentence, if you don't want to become a mess of ashes, before seven o'clock tomorrow morning, grab the promise and send it to the Winter Palace, and I will undo the spell for you, and at the same time you will be incorporated into the Iron Guard, and all past crimes will not be pursued, but then again, if you still insist on the so-called loyalty or have a trace of luck, I will not come. ”

The puppet's eyes were full of abuse, he really wanted to see how this group of self-proclaimed loyal defenders would choose, he didn't care about Fang Ye's life or death, even if half of the defenders were selfless enough to sacrifice themselves, but what about the other half?

As the leader, Fang Ye chose to live and persuaded the defenders to save the lives of 50,000 people, he could not care about his own life, or even his family, but he couldn't watch so many people die with him, they also have families, is the so-called loyalty, the so-called honor and reputation really so important?

No one dared to stop the puppet, they were still immersed in shock and fear, and the puppet at this moment seemed to be a demon in their eyes, and they all wanted to be a hundred meters away from him.

Wang Ke followed behind the puppets in silence, not daring to look back at their eyes again, it was not overnight to curse 50,000 people, he spent a full year, from the initial guilt, to the later numbness.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that the spell has been triggered, normally, you should all be alive before seven o'clock tomorrow morning, but this spell is not very stable, and different people have different bearing capacity, so even if someone dies halfway, don't worry, it's normal, the only thing I can guarantee is that after seven o'clock tomorrow morning, if I don't see the promise, none of you will survive, it's noon, you still have about nineteen hours, think about it." The puppet threw down this sentence and left the Storm's End with Wang Ke.

"He's a liar, he doesn't have this kind of spell. ”

"Don't you see how they died, there are no bones left, you think you're joking?"

"I ...... I don't want to die, Xiaolou is only five years old...... I can't die ......"

"If you have a son, don't we?"

"What a quarrel, you have the ability to unravel this spell. ”

"By the way, we can go to Lingwan for help, there are so many spiritual teachers there, there must be a way! Nineteen hours is definitely too late. ”

"Have you forgotten, what is our current situation? Not to mention that Ling Wan can't help us, even if people are willing to help, can you unravel the first two words, a full 50,000 people, it's too late for us to rush over, but I'm afraid it's too late to undo the spell one by one, besides, we are all gone, what should we do with Wind Rest Castle? What about Young Master Promise?"

"It's a big deal, it's a death, what's there to be afraid of. ”

Big deal is death?

But death is worthless, the puppet has told them very clearly, Nohe can't get out of Sunset City, they can't wait for reinforcements, Lord Nolan is in prison, Mrs. Le is dead, the matter has come to this, what are they still protecting?

A young master who has not dried up?

Maybe...... Is the Nuo family really going to die?

Strange emotions fermented in everyone's hearts, a sense of distrust spread, no one dared to approach Storm's End at this moment, and within nineteen hours, they had to make a choice.

......

"I have done everything I can, whether it is successful or not, please keep your promises. Wang Ke hesitated for a long time, but decided to mention this matter.

"The lives of 50,000 people are not as good as your son's life, I like people like you, and I can speak more easily, don't worry, I will save him, let's go, take me to see how he is." The puppet smiled meaningfully and handed the scroll in his hand to Wang Ke.

"This ......"

"Let me think about it, before seven o'clock tomorrow morning, at most seven or eight thousand people will die, and it doesn't hurt to tell you the truth, even if the three hundred spirit methods under your hands are dead, the spiritual power is not enough to trigger the ash spell in the bodies of fifty thousand people, at most...... Let's die 20,000 people, but you can rest assured, in the face of death, they can give up much more than you think, and you can personally unwind the curse on them when the time comes. ”

The lives of tens of thousands of people, the puppet didn't put it in his eyes, no matter how many people he killed, when he created the ash curse, just for the experiment, nearly 10,000 people died in just three months, and under continuous improvement, it has a power that is almost comparable to the forbidden curse, if there is enough spiritual power to support, let alone tens of thousands of people, the entire continent will die.

Wang Ke couldn't help but shudder, he didn't know if the person in front of him had any humanity at all, or if he was a demon from hell at all.

"Don't look at me like that, you and I are actually the same kind of people, unscrupulous for the sake of the end, you can betray your friends and deceive your subordinates in order to save your son, I am the same, the one who dies is always a loser, no matter how many honorary titles he has in life, he is just a fool, you are very smart and choose the right position. The puppet chuckled.

Wang Ke suppressed the emotions in his heart, it was useless to regret it at this point, I hope they could think about it earlier and take the promise to the Winter Palace, so that he can feel less guilty.

"The power of the ash is about the ninth order, in fact, it is not perfect, it is too troublesome to cast a spell, it is difficult to cause large-scale damage in a short period of time, it is fundamentally no better than some ninth-order spells, let alone forbidden spells, haven't you also studied a lot of spells over the years, do you think there is anything else that can be improved?" asked the puppet casually.

"The ash will not explode immediately after the spell is cast, as long as it is not triggered, it can even lie dormant for five years, ten years, until the spiritual power is exhausted and automatically dissipates, the spirit array is extremely complicated, unless you get the traction scroll, otherwise it can't be unraveled, as you said, although the spell casting process is obscure, but it can only be used by one person at a time, it is best to use it for assassination or coercion, if there are too many people, it is very time-consuming, and if you deal with the army, it is indeed not as good as other ninth-order spells. ”

Wang Ke as a spirit guide, in the early years also graduated from Lingwan, and then in Lingwan for five or six years as a teacher, he is quite fanatical about spells, even if Lingwan stipulates that he is not allowed to study forbidden spells, but he still can't suppress his curiosity, but his own realm is not enough, not to mention forbidden spells, he can't control spells above the seventh order, no matter how careful he is, there is still an accident, which makes him regret the accident for life.

He begged him to save his wife and son, but he took back his mentor ring, drove him out of Lingwan, and destroyed all the materials on his spells, saying that he had done it himself.

A few days later, his wife died, he tried his best to save his son's life, even then it was an immortal state, every month he needed to spend a lot of spiritual power to maintain more than ten kinds of spells, the loss of the spirit core was extremely terrifying, more than ten years like a day, the appearance was like a dry corpse, and it was difficult to live long.

He doesn't hate it, rules are rules, it's just self-inflicted, he just doesn't want to, Xiao Che is only thirteen years old, he hasn't even gone out to North Wind City, there are only glaciers and snow in the north, he promised to take Xiao Che to the south to see, to see the sea, jungle, desert, these things that don't exist in the north.

"There are indeed many deficiencies, at the beginning I only considered its lethality to the human body, by the way, you should know that more than thirty years ago, the Black Death that broke out in Nanyu Country was extremely contagious, and the fatality rate was also extremely high, whether it was ordinary people or spiritual people, none of them were spared, nearly 10 million people died in half a year, fortunately, a cure was developed later, otherwise Nanyu Kingdom would have been wiped out. The puppet suddenly had an inspiration, and the irrepressible excitement made him speak faster.

"What do you mean...... Contagious?"

"That's right, the reason why Ash is not comparable to the forbidden spell is that it is troublesome to cast spells, and once it faces too many enemies, no matter how lethal it is, it will not help, but think about it, what if it can be contagious?" a smile appeared on the golem's face.

"Impossible, no spell can be infected, even if it is a forbidden spell, there is no precedent for contagion, besides, the principle of ash is to ignite the spiritual core in the opponent's body, and it needs external spiritual power to induce, even if you attract a few thousand people at most, the spiritual power should be exhausted, even if it can be infected, what's the point?" Wang Ke felt that this puppet was a little whimsical.
