"How dare these humble humans challenge my majesty!" Heidfeld was uncharacteristically furious, and his hoarse roar spread far and wide.【】
In his rage, the Death Lord forgot to suppress his anger, and the terrible pressure instantly spread throughout the camp of the undead creatures. All the undead creatures under Heidfeld were so scared that they shivered, and the soul fire in their eyes shrank to a minimum.
, like a flame in a strong wind, which may be extinguished at any time. There are many weaker undead creatures who cannot bear such great pressure, and the soul fire in their eyes is instantly extinguished, turning into a pile of messy wreckage.
After all, Heidfeld has wisdom that is not inferior to that of humans. After venting his anger, he immediately thought that the most important thing right now is to complete the leader's order. So the Death Lord quickly suppressed his anger and began to mobilize his troops, planning to continue
Launch an attack. It has decided to do this as soon as possible so as not to give the leader the impression that it is capable.
Suddenly, tens of thousands of undead creatures began to move slowly outside the castle. Their footsteps alone were like thunder rolling across the plain. The terrifying momentum caused tremendous pressure on Roger and others.
"They are serious about it." Roger on the city wall noticed the actions of the undead creatures and couldn't help but cursed in a low voice: "These bastards of undead creatures are really going to have no end!"
While Roger was complaining, the tension in the Lington Pass had become increasingly serious. News of the appearance of the three-headed skeleton Komodo had spread here, making everyone believe that the undead creatures were going to attack the pass. No.
Many civilians have packed up their property and fled to the hinterland of the kingdom. The soldiers are on alert every day, always on guard against attacks by undead creatures.
At the same time, the news was also spread to the capital of the kingdom through the magic circle, which immediately attracted the attention of the Privy Council and the Military Department. In the case that undead creatures may invade the hinterland of the kingdom, the Privy Council and the Military Department rarely undermined each other this time and quickly responded to the matter.
reaction.
The Privy Council began to mobilize a large amount of military supplies and food to be transported to Linton Pass in preparation for a defensive battle. The military headquarters began to mobilize a large number of soldiers to Linton Pass to strengthen the defense force there. Everyone knew very well that
If the undead army invades the population,
The dense hinterland of the kingdom will cause terrible disasters, even enough to shake the foundation of the kingdom. Therefore, from the king to the noble ministers, they attach great importance to this matter, and preparations for the war are also being carried out rapidly. The first army was deployed within half a day.
The assembly is completed and ready to go to the battlefield.
However, Linton Pass is located on the southwest border of the kingdom, and it will take a long time for the army to get there. Many people are worried about this, fearing that the pass will be lost before the reinforcements arrive.
Just when the entire kingdom's attention was focused on Linton Pass, Anna, Rosberg and others rushed back to the capital as quickly as possible. With their ability, they had to mobilize a small "mercenary leader"
Naturally, it was not difficult to return to the capital. On the same day, the Privy Council issued an order to urgently summon Roger Lee, who was assisting in guarding Lingtong Pass, to go to the capital.
This order was personally signed by the President of the Privy Council, Duke Hamilton. King Fernando Alonso III even sent his confidant, Viscount Philippe Massa, captain of the palace guard, to Linton Pass to convey the order. Count Rothberg also volunteered to accompany him.
This unusual situation immediately attracted the attention of interested people. Many people were asking about who this Roger Lee was, so that so many big shots paid such attention to him. Especially since everyone knew that this Roger Lee was currently
Also when Linton Pass was facing a crisis, various speculations spread, making everyone pay more attention to this previously unknown mercenary leader.
At the same time, Roger, who was far away in Linton Pass, was leading his men in a fierce battle with the undead creatures. He did not know that he had become the focus of discussion among the nobles in the capital after dinner.
Heidfeld decided to complete the task assigned by the leader as soon as possible, and naturally he would not think about conserving his strength. Under his command, several undead creatures swarmed towards the castle and used their best human sea tactics to attack Roger and others.
There are more undead creatures participating in the attack this time than last time, and the types have also developed from a single zombie to a variety of low-level undead creatures such as skeletons, skeleton warriors, plague zombies and ghouls. Especially the plague zombies and ghouls are very powerful against Luo.
Jay and others posed the greatest threat. On several occasions, Chris and Phil had to run back and forth on the city wall to eliminate the ghouls who relied on their agility to rush up the city wall.
Roger and the others were fighting hard on the city wall. The constant stream of enemies rushing to the city wall and the dark undead creatures outside the castle made everyone inevitably feel a sense of strength. Fortunately, Roger's soldiers did not have any thoughts of their own.
, otherwise, I am afraid that the morale at this time has already reached a low point.
Roger cut down the skeleton warrior who climbed up the city wall with one sword. At the same time, he couldn't help but whisper: "It's really endless!"
The battle has been going on for half a day, but the undead creatures have no intention of stopping the attack. Heidfeld's plan is to fight a war of attrition, first using the low-level undead creatures as cannon fodder to drain the strength of these humans, and then send out the elite
His men killed them all in one fell swoop.
Looking at the men who kept swarming towards the city wall from a distance, the Death Lord felt that it would definitely be able to kill all the humans this time. It even began to look at the castle with interest, hesitating whether to make it one of its bases.
Completely opposite to the leisurely Heidfeld, Roger and others are fighting the enemy with all their strength. Although the strong will to survive allows everyone to maximize their potential, human physical strength is limited after all. After
After the long battle, everyone was exhausted and it was difficult to continue.
"We're so exhausted!" Chris split the zombie in front of him from the middle with a sword, and panted to Roger: "If we continue like this, even if we are not killed by the undead creatures, we will be exhausted to death!"
"Where is the magic scroll I gave you? Take it out and use it!" Roger himself was on the verge of collapse. He reminded the knight while attaching the Breeze Talisman to his body, and then tore it in half.
The familiar coolness instantly flowed through Roger's body, filling his aching body with strength again. Roger felt that the increasingly heavy sword suddenly became lighter, and "swish" the two swords were about to jump up the city wall.
The ghoul was cut into three pieces.
Roger's words also reminded others, and everyone used the Breeze Talisman on themselves. But in the blink of an eye, everyone who had been exhausted all recovered their physical strength, and their low fighting spirit was rekindled. Chris and Fei among others
After regaining his strength, Er immediately launched an attack, eliminated a group of skeleton warriors, and retook a small section of the city wall controlled by them.
Seeing that the defense line was stabilized again, Roger couldn't help but praise loudly: "Well done!"
"Tell you good news!" At this moment, the excited voice of the Castle Commander rang in Roger's head: "Both the A-level weapons factory and the A-level military camp have been upgraded!"
