Five hundred and sixteenth chapter undead reinforcements
Since it is a necromancer who maliciously shows off his presence and has no friends, the red dots that appear behind him should be the undead. Most of the cannon fodder troops of the undead are a group of walking dead with completely stripped of senses and thinking ability, such as skeleton soldiers and zombies, even the top skeleton guards and blood corpses, you can basically treat them as a human-like tool or weapon. Of course, the only exception is the ghoul. This monster, which is not sure whether it should be an animal or an alchemy creature, was born from the chief disciple of the King of Plague Kazan, and his other left and right hand, the hand of the ring head of the Dead Council.
It is said that ghouls are alchemy creatures because they were indeed born from a certain cultivation pool. Now new individuals can only mass production through magic and cultivation methods. It is impossible for them to spawn the next generation through natural "mating" methods. It is said that they are animals because they have all the intelligence and fighting skills of wild animals, and they also have the keen senses and intuition of wild animals, especially the most important sense of smell when hunting.
Lu Xi could basically be sure that there must be ghouls in the enemy army on the ground that are approaching this direction step by step. If he had expected it, there should be no skeletons and zombies that had just been summoned, otherwise the number of enemy troops would not be so many. In addition, a high-ranking devil knight in the sky flew around to show his presence, so the quality of the undead army following him should not be too low-end. But even if it is all composed of death knights, high-ranking vampire warriors and even lichs, there must be silk soldiers such as ghouls. Because this kind of thing that looks like a licker runs like the wind and moves quickly. Moreover, his nose is better than the Turin light of the hunting dog, it is definitely the most indispensable ground scout army.
Lu Xi turned her head and used another color to Nicole. The elf girl suddenly felt aware and found a small medicine bottle. She opened the lid and swayed it slightly. In the eyes of ordinary people, her movements seemed to be just a suspicion of being cute because there was no effect. But Lu Xi knew that her team of nearly thirty people and a big cat, all the breath and special smell were blocked under the action of this elf drug, and it was completely integrated with the surrounding mountains, rocks, plants and trees.
Of course, Lu Xi can also use magic to block everyone's breath, but any spell casting will always bring some unnatural elemental fluctuations. Although he is now confident in his spell casting speed and spell concealment, there is a funny undead knight who is maliciously experiencing his presence in the sky, and I don't know how sensible that guy is. It's better to be careful or be as careful as possible.
After a few minutes, with the keen hearing brought by Lu Xi's perception ability far exceeding ordinary people, he also captured the sound of footsteps and the rapid and dense sound of horse hooves from afar. He had seen his head burying lowered, and his keen vision had locked in the figures appearing at the mountain stream in the distance through the dense shrubs in front of him.
The first one was three Necromancers riding skeleton war horses. Each was wearing thick armor, with blood-red, black and silver as the theme of war robe, and carrying a daunting weapon. Of course, in terms of the degree of bombing, it was naturally far from the one riding on the frost dragon in the sky. Behind them was a team of one hundred skeleton guards wearing fine chain armor, and the leaders also held military flags and the heraldic flags of each knight. The living humans and elves knights have always regarded Necromancers as self-reliant depraved those who betrayed the honor and dignity of warriors, but as long as conditions allow, the latter also copied the knight-style style by ten percent. Necromancers are also "knights", such a tall, rich and handsome profession. Of course, they have to show the difference from ordinary silk in their outfits.
As Lu Xi expected, in addition to the tall, rich and handsome knights and very capable and tough skeleton guards, the two sides of the team were also wandering with twenty or thirty ghouls the size of calves. They followed the team and jogged, and a few ran to the front of the team, dozens of meters away from the entire army, smelling the smell on the ground, like a group of loyal military fighting dogs.
This is a deceased army that looks very powerful. Although there are not many people, its combat power is extremely considerable. The three deceased knights are naturally powerful to fight one hundred. The bone guards whose bones have been magically purified have combat power that can match three to four ordinary adult soldiers. They have no intelligence and only know how to use routine martial arts mechanically. Of course, they are not masters. However, on the battle formation of thousands of troops, such a simple and direct routine combat method is the most practical. More importantly, these guys also have the fighting spirit that will never be shaken and the physical strength that will never be exhausted. And under the mental control of lord-level undead like the deceased knight, they can still achieve absolute obedience and order enforcement that the most perfectly trained army cannot achieve. Such an elite undead unit with more than 100 people should be able to fight against more than seven or eight times their number on the front battlefield.
Of course, fortunately, both the skeleton guards and blood corpses are regular soldiers. Although they can be mass-produced, the process is still quite complicated. It is definitely not like ordinary skeleton soldiers. If you find a cemetery, you can pull up a large area with just one move.
The Dead Knight in the sky circled again, then pulled the reins and controlled the frost dragon to fly towards the direction the team was heading.
Seeing that the other party finally flew a little further, Lu Xi pinched out a handprint and was about to cast a spell, but Nicole reached out to hold it.
"Wait a little longer and wait for them to walk into some." Nicole whispered: "This is the forest. My magic is more practical than Lu Lu, and the movement and elemental fluctuations are almost non-existent, and it is absolutely safe."
Do you have to trust your companions? Not only do you trust their beliefs and loyalty, but also your abilities? Lu Xi pondered for a second, then nodded happily.
The team advanced for a while and finally stopped, waiting for the Dead Knight riding a frost dragon in the sky to land. Soon, the huge body more than 20 meters long finally landed slowly with its skeleton-shaped wing claws, hovering at a height of only four or five meters above the ground. The uncontrolled ice magic even spread a thin layer of frozen air on the surrounding rocks and plants.
"Kunors, you are too slow. If you don't speed up the marching, you may be really escaped by those people. No one here can explain to Lord Angma." The words of the Dead Knight riding on the Frost Dragon were quite polite, but unfortunately his tone was extremely cold, as if the sound alone could solidify the air around him into frost visible to the naked eye.
This is really a pain to speak when standing and talking. As a leader, he can ride a flying mount and move his mouth casually, but he must let us men break his legs. So, office politics is so realistic that there is no point in his strokes! If this Dead Knight named Kunots was a living human, he might have thought so in his heart. However, as the living dead Dead Knight, although he still has perfect wisdom and soul, and even has memory of his life, his emotions are still very weak, and the only remaining emotion is infinitely biased towards cruelty and distortion. Since the Dead Knight is the most backbone of the Henas Peninsula, he is naturally different from the rebellious vampires and the greedy and arrogant lich. He is a perfect warrior with strong strength, but extremely high obedience and patience.
The one who stood at the head of the team nodded and said, "I will lead the team to arrive as soon as possible. However, this is in a mountain ridge full of tall trees and dense bushes, and there is not even a flat path. The Necromancer and the Skeleton Guard are both heavily armored warriors, and their actions will be affected. Lord Igor. I hope you can understand."
His tone was very plain and calm. He knew that he was not complaining, but was narrating an objective fact.
"So what? You are not sent out. Should you be allowed to take the vampires on both ends of the snake and rat to seize the merits, or those slow and sarcastic lichs? I can understand you. Perhaps Lord Angma can understand you, but our enemies cannot understand you. Even our allies will not understand you." The Necromancer, known as Lord Igor, emphasized the tone on the word "alliance": "You should know what the existence of Lu Xi Berenkast means now. Only by destroying the remnant soldier and seizing that woman can he take the bait and have the opportunity to erase him. Of course, only by us who wiped him personally. When people later mentioned this war, no one would always think that we, the immortals of Henas, were holding the future golden tent khan, and the thighs of the 'Henas' Asog won the war."
He paused and looked at the three fellow Necromancers in front of him with a blank expression: "This is not just a war against our thousand-year-old enemy - the Alliance of Learning. Isn't it a war to fight for the best interests after the war with our allies? Moreover, it may even be the battle of the prestige and faith of the two true gods. Now, we have finally grasped the tail of that woman, but there is no reason why the orcs don't know. Their army may be on the road at this time, and they have even fought with the enemy. If this matter is first won by them, the prestige of the "Heart of Dragons" Asog will be even more unshakable. What does it mean by a Supreme King of Orgrimmar with no prestige, people like you may not understand, but you just need to know that Lord Angmar will be very unhappy. At that time, you will raise your head to apologize to Lord Angmar."
This is the so-called political alliance. For the sake of interests or the same enemy, they have to pinch their noses and walk together. What we see is that when the undead and orc allies have just achieved the most brilliant victory in hundreds of years in a war, but before the spoils have arrived, the tragedy between the two sides has begun. The undead lords here have begun to think about snatching achievements and reputation from "Dragon Heart", but who can guarantee that the orc Khan, the wise orc Khan, has already thought of seven or eight ghost ideas to plot against his undead friends?
In short, once national and ethnic interests are involved, everything will be filled with negative energy of sadness.
"I understand! We will definitely arrive first." Even in the face of the commander's unreasonable death order, the Dead Knight named Kuknows still responded in such a simple and direct way, as if he was a robot without thoughts.
Igor glanced at the other party, as if he wanted to remind him. At this time, the jungle next to him suddenly rose with a faint sound of flapping wings and a crisp bird cry. He was slightly stunned and looked at the direction where the bird cry came: "That was..."
"It's the cuckoo's cry." Kuknows still answered with a stern look.
"Cuckoo? Hi, it's a long-lost voice. I remember when I was a living person or a living child, my favorite voice was this." The voice of the Dead Knight suddenly seemed a little resentful, but after a moment, the tone returned to its previous coldness and sternity: "But now, I suddenly feel so harsh. Sure enough, the voice of the Black Dead Crow is still more beautiful."
"Yes, sir." There was still a sound without emotion and fluctuation like a robot.
Igor glanced at his subordinate who was not in trouble, nodded without comment, and pulled the reins of the frost dragon under his crotch: "In addition, news came that Lu Xi Berenkast had entered the mountain. If you find out, please inform Lord Angma as soon as possible. I will urge the rest of the reinforcements to arrive immediately. As for you, please do your own things."
The frost dragon carried its master and flew into the sky again, and then circled reluctantly. Igor did not notice any abnormal movement, so he flew toward a higher sky. The undead army underground continued to advance, and walked to a slightly flat crossroad in a mountain stream. Then he turned and found a passage to the southwest direction, barely able to allow the army to move forward, and walked there.
What they didn't know was that there was a cuckoo on the treetop next to them. The pea-sized bird was emitting a luster that was completely incompatible with the birds. They didn't know that as long as they walked less than a kilometer forward, they might find the biggest goal of this trip from behind in the bush.
Once you can't seize the opportunity, you will definitely be punished. At this time, Lu Xi and his friends have already passed the cuckoo's ears and heard everything. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
