In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed. During these ten days, mercenaries have visited the town of Moramachi. Alice asserted that the current situation has become very dangerous and no new mercenaries have visited. It proved that the Hengduan Valley had become a dead place. The mercenaries were unable to pass through the vast area controlled by countless undead creatures, and the town of Moramachi had become a true island.
Alice does have the potential to be a crow's mouth. As soon as she said these words, Bravi, the deputy leader of the magic group, hurried in and reported that a large number of undead appeared around her.
Every once in a while, the magicians of the magic group will collectively release the Eyes of the Sky. The broad field of vision is enough to sort out the surrounding dozens of miles. If sporadic undead creatures break into the vicinity, they may not be able to detect them, but It is difficult for large groups of undead creatures to escape their observation.
An Fei took Susanna and Alice and rushed to the mage tower immediately. Chris and Aijeraz were talking in a low voice. When he saw An Fei coming, Chris looked happy and shouted: "An Fei, come here. Look at this, it’s so weird!”
Beside Chris, several magicians were releasing their Sky Eyes, scanning different scenes. One of the Sky Eyes was firmly locked on several zombies. Those zombies looked really weird. Ordinary zombies Their bodies were all covered with a layer of rotten flesh, but the skin on their bodies was intact. Their muscles looked strong and exuded a bronze sheen. Regardless of their gender, they were not wearing any strands of clothing. What was even more shocking was that they It seemed like they were talking in a low voice. It is known that undead creatures have lost the ability to speak. Even if they can communicate with each other, it is because of spiritual communication. This phenomenon subverts the definition of undead creatures.
"Approximately how many undead creatures are there?" An Fei asked softly.
"About three thousand." Chris answered quickly.
This is the strength of the magic group. As long as traces of the enemy are discovered, the magicians of the magic group can immediately gather together to find out the number and direction of the enemy as quickly as possible, and also find the enemy's command center. Of course, this is only a tactical advantage. No matter how powerful the Eye in the Sky is, it cannot see through the strategic trap, otherwise the Dark Moon Magic Legion of the Alison Empire would not be surrounded.
"Are they talking?" Susanna couldn't help but ask. She couldn't believe her eyes.
"Yes, these zombies seem to have... some kind of evolutionary ability." Chris smiled bitterly: "An Fei, it's not good. No matter how difficult the undead wars were in the past, we always had the upper hand in the end. That was because of the use of the undead. The arrogance of mages and the stupidity of undead creatures, if they can also have intelligence, it will be too detrimental to us."
"Sir, look!" Aijeraz suddenly shouted.
The zombies seemed to have reached a consensus and walked away separately. Then in another eye of the sky, a group of about three hundred zombies had already walked onto the road and slowly moved towards the town of Mora March. come over.
The attack is about to begin! An idea flashed in everyone's mind, and An Fei and Alice turned their heads in unison and focused their attention on one person. Both of them are very sensible and not only good at understanding others. An Fei is better at analyzing himself. From An Fei's point of view, he can handle small-scale battles with ease. But it was hard to tell about large-scale conflicts. He had no similar experience, and Alice knew nothing about it.
"Kumo Luo Gesha, tell me, what should we do?" An Fei said softly.
Jiu Moluo Gesha was a little hesitant. However, he only hesitated for a moment, and finally strode over here.
At this moment, the zombies' movements suddenly accelerated. Running straight towards the town of Moramachi, An Fei and others had faintly heard the howls of the zombies.
"I'm going to the mage tower!" Chris said urgently, and then quickly released the floating technique.
"Sir, wait a minute!" Kumarakusa shouted.
"What's up?"
"Sir, you only need to order a dozen magicians to release magic interception."
"Why?" Chris asked in surprise.
"Those zombies are just testing our strength. If the strength of our magic group is exposed from the beginning, it will be very detrimental to us."
"But if those zombies are allowed to rush over..."
"Sir, this is war, casualties are unavoidable!" Kumarajiva interrupted Chris: "Any unrealistic ideas will cause us more casualties!"
Chris couldn't help but look at An Fei, who said without hesitation: "Listen to him!"
"Sir, who are the people stationed there?" Kumarakusa asked.
"It's Simpera's Sixth Regiment."
"If it's Ximpera... I think they can sustain it for a long time." Kumarakusa said expressionlessly.
During the conversation, the zombies in the Eye of the Sky had already rushed towards the first row of fences. Their figures were very agile, and they were like monkeys.
go. Ximpera appeared above the fence, commanding the mercenaries to poke at them with their long swords. If it was just a battle of this level, Ximpera's sixth regiment would have no problem holding on for several days. Unfortunately, the group that lagged behind was slightly shaped. The different zombies suddenly sped up. Although a row of magic falling from the sky brought them some trouble, the number of zombies was disproportionate to the coverage of the magic. Soon, the zombies rushed under the fence. .
The thickness of the fence reached about one meter, and it was very strong. It was almost made of giant wood. This was also used to bully the undead creatures who did not know how to use fire magic. Like a planned exercise, the zombies neatly opened their smelly mouths. , balls of pus sprayed onto the fence, and then they stretched out their sharp claws and clawed at the fence.
The perspective of the Eye in the Sky was vertically downward, and it was not clear what had happened to the fence. However, everyone soon understood that a zombie had passed through the fence and appeared inside the defense line. Ximpera reacted quickly and The sword jumped down from the fence more than 20 meters high, and the giant sword swung down, splitting the zombie's shoulder strap back into two pieces.
Zombies broke into the defense line one after another, and a group of about 400 zombies rushed over in the distance. Ximpera blocked the left and right, but in the end he could not change the festering situation. He had to send a signal for help and command the mercenaries. Abandon the fence, fight and retreat.
An Fei looked at Kumarajiva, who shook his head, still expressionless. Bravi quietly said to Susanna: "That guy has a grudge against Ximpera, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Susanna glared at Bravi hurriedly.
More and more zombies passed through the defense line. From time to time, mercenaries who fell behind were torn into pieces by the zombies. Chris controlled his emotions. There were always only sporadic fireballs or lightning spells falling, which dealt a huge blow to the total number of zombies. For hundreds of zombies, this kind of attack could only be considered as tickling them. Their attacks were so overwhelming that Ximpera had to abandon the camp and retreat to the town before barely gaining a foothold.
"Kumorokosha, is there really no problem?" This time Alice couldn't help it.
"Sir, how many undead creatures are there in the Hengduan Valley? Is it three thousand, thirty thousand or three hundred thousand? This kind of battle is just a small conflict for us, and it will be much more difficult than now." Sha's attitude seemed very respectful.
"You just said that Ximpera can persist for a long time!" Alice was not easily convinced.
"I didn't expect those zombies to be able to use magic."
"We have seen this kind of zombie before. They should be the leaders of ordinary zombies. If you kill them, the combat effectiveness of other zombies will be greatly affected." Bravi said.
"They are not the leaders. Those zombies who can talk to each other are the real leaders." Jiu Moluo Gesha shook his head slightly: "Before the official battle breaks out, we need to make an evaluation of their intelligence. In fact, I don’t believe how smart they are. Human children of several years old can talk, but their intelligence is incomparable to that of adults.”
"If you keep waiting like this, will you be able to evaluate their intelligence?" Alice asked with a frown. In fact, she was not making things difficult, but was helping Kumari. Knowing Kumara's She sympathized with Kumarajiva just as she sympathized with herself, so she didn't want to see Kumarajiva being suspected by others.
"Of course, they must have follow-up deployments, I..." Kumarokosa said and was suddenly stunned. In the Eye of the Sky, groups of zombies appeared on the road, surging towards the town of Moramachi like a tide. Come over. According to the magic group's report, the total number of zombies is about three thousand. Together with the zombies that have rushed into the defense line, all the zombies should have appeared.
"Lord Bravi, can you ask the magic group to search in other directions to see if there are any undead creatures?" Kumarokosa said hurriedly.
"Okay!" Bravi nodded.
There were almost forty magicians staying under the mage tower. Under Bravi's order, they released the Eyes of the Sky one after another. The results came out immediately. Except for the defense line of the sixth regiment, there were no undead creatures in other directions. traces.
"There is no strategy, no plan, not even the simplest attempt to make an attack in the east or the west..." Kumarakusa smiled bitterly: "It seems that I have to admit that I still overestimate them."
"So, we can start fighting back?"
Kumarajiva hesitated for a moment and nodded.
