The remains of undead creatures, which maintain their vitality with negative energy, will soon fall apart after death. [ ] For the same reason, their equipment will soon turn into a pile of powder.
Some time had passed since the death knight was eliminated, and its body and equipment had begun to disappear. The death knight's armor was particularly damaged, and two scrolls were exposed from its incomplete armor.
These two scrolls were intact and damaged, and they were obviously not items belonging to undead creatures. This made Roger very curious. What kind of precious scrolls were so precious in the eyes of the undead knights that he would carry them with him at all times?
"The enemy's things can be considered trophies, so these two scrolls are mine." Roger murmured to himself as he picked up the two scrolls. He opened the larger scroll for a few glances, and was immediately struck by
The content is shocking.
This is a detailed map. The terrain depicted on the map is exactly the Runde Peninsula where Roger is currently located, and he can even find several villages he passed through before.
Originally, it was not a big deal for super undead creatures like the Death Knight to have a map. What really shocked Roger was that there were some words and numbers written next to several human castles on the map, indicating that
The types and numbers of troops in the castle.
For example, next to the Rose Castle where Roger wanted to go, the words "Thirty cavalry, two hundred swordsmen, three hundred pikemen, and one hundred archers" were marked, which clearly stated the military strength of the castle.
"These undead creatures actually know so much about the deployment of human troops!" Seeing this frightening map, Roger frowned and said to himself: "There must be human spies working for these guys, and this human must have a high status in the kingdom.
, otherwise you wouldn’t know this confidential information.”
There are actually spies of undead creatures in the upper echelons of the human kingdom. This situation is really surprising and worrying. But for Roger now, the spies in the upper echelons of the kingdom are too far away and beyond his control. It truly makes him feel threatened.
Yes, those are the black arrows on the map.
These arrows point from the edge of the Doom continent to the hinterland of the continent, which is obviously the route of the army of undead creatures. One of the arrows points directly to Rose Castle, indicating that this castle where a large number of troops are stationed is also the target of the undead creatures' attack. And all the black arrows
In the end, they all point to one place, which is the Lington Pass, which guards the only passage from the Rund Peninsula to the hinterland of the mainland.
"Are these undead creatures planning to occupy the entire continent?" Roger figured out the ambitions of the undead creatures from this map, and felt that safety might not be guaranteed even if they reached Roseburg, and they would have to be taken to the other side of the Lington Pass to feel at ease.
With a heavy heart, Roger put away the map and opened another smaller scroll. At the beginning of the scroll, there was a line of simple cursive calligraphy "Lawrence's compendium of dragon-slaying swordsmanship!"
At that time, the reason why the Lion-Hearted Emperor Lawrence was famous throughout the Doom Continent was that in addition to the countless loyal and elite soldiers under his command, his own strength was also talked about by people. The Lion-Hearted Emperor was a legendary powerhouse, and he relied on
The skill that makes him famous is the dragon-slaying swordsmanship.
It is said that the Lion-Hearted Emperor recorded all his martial arts experiences after the year and named it "Lawrence's Compendium of Dragon-Slaying Swordsmanship". Lawrence not only recorded his frightening swordsmanship in the compendium, but also practiced "Starry Sky"
The secret of fighting spirit. As long as anyone gets this scroll, he can become a legendary powerhouse like Lawrence.
Roger was holding the scroll with an expression of disbelief on his face. He was lucky to be able to fuse an artifact like the Castle Hub, and now that even the Dragon Slaying Swordsmanship had fallen into his hands, it made him feel a bit unreal.
After turning the scroll over several times, Roger asked the castle master uncertainly: "I said... this scroll can't be fake, right?"
"The scroll is authentic." The Castle Master immediately replied categorically: "I was the one who wrote this scroll for Lawrence. Is there a little ink mark at the end where he signed it?"
Roger hurriedly went to the end of the scroll and found that the Castle Master was indeed right. He couldn't help laughing: "My character is really good enough, and even such a precious scroll fell into my hands. I'll take it."
If you practice the above content for a few years, you can become a powerful person who shakes the continent, haha!"
After all, this scroll is Lawrence's relic, so the Castle Master also attaches great importance to it. After a while, he asked suspiciously: "This scroll is true, but how did it fall into the hands of an undead creature?"
"Who knows, maybe it happened to fall into the hands of that death knight." Roger said nonchalantly: "Anyway, the scroll belongs to me now, and Lawrence's hard work back then was not in vain!"
What Roger didn't know was that the scroll was actually the item the Death Knight was escorting. Otherwise, it would have been just a few carts of wood and stone, so why would a super undead creature be needed to protect it? According to the original plan, the Death Knight would have escorted the scroll outside the Lington Pass.
The scroll was given to the messenger of a certain human figure in exchange for greater support from the other party.
However, Roger now takes the scroll as his own, which not only opens up a path for him to become a strong man, but also undermines the acceptance of undead creatures and the cooperation of human traitors to a certain extent.
Although Roger lost a dozen spear militiamen in this battle, the gains far exceeded his losses. Not to mention anything else, just this outline of dragon-slaying swordsmanship is an extremely precious harvest.
Not long after Roger put away the scroll, Mike arrived with others. Knowing that Rose Castle was no longer safe, Roger led everyone directly to Linton Pass, hoping to enter the safety of human rule before the undead creatures
zone.
That night, everyone camped in a forest clearing. As usual, Eddie and others were responsible for setting up camp, lighting bonfires, and finding food. Roger only had to sit back and enjoy his achievements.
When the prey that Mike had brought emitted an alluring aroma on the campfire, Roger was already lying down comfortably in the tent specially built for him. After the food was ready, Lisa sent in the best part.
The tent was for Roger to enjoy. The girl had completely adapted to her role as a maid. She had to serve Roger every time before enjoying her own food.
Roger was very satisfied with his gentle and considerate service to the beautiful girl, and he was naturally very kind to Lisa. Lisa was lucky to meet such a kind and kind master, which somewhat diluted the loss of some girls' fathers.
Mother's pain.
Of course, the safety of the camp was taken care of by the spear militia. Everyone who had been traveling all day quickly went to rest. Only Roger was still tossing and turning, his mind was on the outline of dragon-slaying swordsmanship.
After making sure that everyone else was asleep, Roger carefully unfolded the scroll left by Lawrence and read the contents carefully by the light of the fire. Although Lawrence is a legendary powerhouse, his skills also start from the simplest foundation.
It is obtained through skill training. The training method recorded at the beginning of the scroll is very simple. You only need to follow certain requirements and practice sword swinging three hundred times every day.
Of course Roger, who wanted to become a strong man, immediately complied. He quietly left the camp and began arduous training under the protection of several spear militiamen.
Roger felt sore all over after just swinging it a hundred times. The dagger in his hand seemed to be dozens of times heavier, and it was very difficult to even lift it up. Roger was just about to put down the dagger and rest for a while, but he heard a sound behind him.
There was the sound of gentle footsteps.
"There's someone!" Roger, who was alert, immediately became nervous.
