Adams' words resonated with everyone. Most of the people here had vaguely guessed the reason why the undead army went to Mori. This made their faces very embarrassed. The dwarf king with a straightforward personality jumped up. He swung the tomahawk in his hand and roared loudly: "What are you waiting for? Why don't you quickly organize people to chop down those undead?"
Reynolds' words made everyone here turn their attention to Ryan. Except for Freya, the elf queen always felt that things were not entirely like this. She looked at Ryan and found that the latter also had something similar to her own in his eyes. With the same doubt, he smiled slightly at Ryan and continued to remain silent.
Ryan already understood the other person's intention from Freya's smile. He did not immediately open his mouth to answer Reynolds' proposal, but turned his attention to the female elf scout standing in front of him. Only then did the latter feel very excited. Uncomfortable. Many elves were originally very dissatisfied with Fulia falling in love with Ryan. Now her desperate situation to get her back seems to have aroused Ryan's suspicion. Naturally, she is not in a good mood. If it weren't for Her Majesty the Queen being here, maybe this would happen. A female elf scout has already begun to curse.
"Well, can you tell me your name?" Ryan didn't care about the dissatisfied look in the eyes of the female elf scout. He asked in a calm tone,
"Masrina, a guard of the Moon Temple, a member of Her Majesty's personal bodyguards, and an elf wind shooter." The female elf scout revealed her identity in a very cold tone.
"So, Ms. Masrina." Ryan didn't care about the other party's tone. Anyway, he often encountered such situations during his adventures in the past. He continued: "You said that you have been hiding in the core area of the Undead Army. It's been more than 8 hours, but the army of the undead, well, including the 10 lichs you mentioned, none of them noticed you..."
"Are you doubting my loyalty to Her Majesty the Queen?" Masrina rushed to say before Ryan could finish his words: "I can swear like the Moonlight Goddess."
"No, no, no, please don't doubt this. That's not what I meant." Ryan said: "In fact, what I mean is that although you are very strong, you want to lurk next to a legendary mage like me. , this seems a bit... You must know that according to your description, you are only 50 meters away from the opponent's highest core commander."
"Hmph." Masrina snorted unconvinced, but did not make any further judgments, because it was indeed impossible for her to avoid Ryan's magical eyes. In fact, except for special races like the illithid, who wanted to get up close The only way to avoid the detection of a legendary strongman like Ryan is by another legendary strongman. Otherwise, a distance as short as 50 meters would be enough for a legendary strongman who is good at melee combat to launch a sneak attack.
"This is my suspicion. I believe Fulia has the same idea as me." Ryan said: "None of the 10 lichs has reached the legendary realm, and the leader of the undead army is actually even worse. This is obviously a bit strange.”
"Perhaps, these lichs themselves have not reached the legendary realm." Adams said: "This is not surprising. If it is so easy for legendary powerhouses to achieve it, then it is not..."
"Haha, if there is not even a legendary strongman, how can such an undead army sweep across the continent? Allen and I don't even need to do anything. We can stop them by just dispatching a few elite corps. As for those lichs, I I believe the magisters of Moon Moon City are enough to deal with it." Ryan said: "Then who can tell me that this undead army traveled thousands of miles from Star Luo Islands to Seawind City, and then rushed towards Mori day and night. They are here to die. Yes."
Ryan's words caused everyone to think deeply. Even the female elf scout Masrina had a trace of doubt in her eyes. There was a detailed description of the catastrophe 200 years ago in the Elf Holy Land, but a few days ago Masrina Compared with the army of the undead that we saw 200 years ago, the difference is like the difference between a creek and the ocean. This is indeed a bit strange.
"What if this undead army is just a cover-up, or there are enough strong men among them, but they deliberately let Masrina go in order to provide us with wrong information." Elf Queen Fulia spoke, Her words immediately aroused murmurs of discussion. Although no one wanted to admit it, they had to say that the explanation given by Fulia was very possible.
At this time, Ryan stood up directly and said loudly: "Instead of constantly guessing what may or may not have happened here, it is better to go to Mori and see with your own eyes. In total, the army of the undead should be about the same." Now that we have arrived, I believe what kind of conspiracy they have will be revealed soon."
"This is too dangerous." Vivian and Adela almost made worried voices together,
Fulia stood up and said: "Don't worry, Ryan and I will go together. With the powerful artifact like the Moonlight Brooch, we can teleport back to Demon Moon City almost instantly. Even if a battle breaks out, I have several artifacts on my body." With a semi-artifact that is enough to compete with a legendary strongman, plus Ryan, I think there are really not many people who can keep us."
Fulia's words made Vivian and the others feel a little more at ease, but they were still a little reluctant to leave. After all, Ryan had to go out again a few days after returning, especially Vivian, who had not been there for a long time after giving birth. Being able to be with Ryan, even if Ryan didn't have a chance to hug the child she had with Ryan, how could she not feel regretful
Ryan couldn't care about these children's personal affairs. After all, in the face of a powerful enemy, any negligence would cause irreversible consequences. He had to be more cautious. For the safety of Cassano, Ryan still conducted a detailed investigation before leaving. In the layout, Cassano kept the outside loose and the inside tight, and all the armies canceled their vacations and entered a state of combat readiness. Although they could not fight against the powerful lich, one against ten was enough to reach a small-scale attack by the undead creatures.
The magicians of the Cassano Magic Guild were all sent out by Ryan. Their strength may not be as powerful as the lich, but it is still no problem to release magic to dispel illusions and search for traces of the lich. After all, Ryan does not want to see the lich when he is out. Sneaking into a few big lichs, he directly used a dark ritual to turn his second hometown into the Temple of Apocalypse. In addition to these, Ryan also thought of what happened during the New Year's celebration in the imperial capital, and told Adams that they must deal with Cassano's stored treasure. Food, water wells and other strategic materials are strictly inspected to prevent the spread of all kinds of unbelievable plagues.
As for Chilaviv and Clifford, of course they stayed and waited for news from Ryan, but they were still uneasy about their hometowns and specially sent people back to do things similar to what Ryan had told them. When Ryan arranged these things , Fulia and Reynolds also issued orders in unison, mobilizing a large number of elite warriors from the clan to rush to Cassano at night to prepare for contingency.
Doing these things naturally takes a lot of time, and Ryan and Fulia took advantage of this time to leave Cassano. The two of them used flying skills to fly in the sky, flying directly from the air over the Valo Mountains, towards Mori The town flies away,

"Your Majesty, the undead are the public enemies of our continent. Cooperating with them is equivalent to becoming the enemy of the entire continent. You should think twice." Heiman, who specializes in government affairs under Senat, advised,
Senat sat on the throne in the middle of the military tent. When he formed the Southern Freedom Alliance with Free Paradise, Moon City, etc., he had secretly proclaimed himself emperor, but he never expected that these would be used by a young man named Ryan. Unplugging them one by one not only made it impossible to continue to support Senat, but also became an obstacle to his unification of the continent.
This military meeting had been going on for a full 4 hours. When Bailey's undead army arrived in Mori as agreed, Senat immediately summoned his men to announce the shocking news, and at the same time discussed how to maximize the use of this terrifying army's breakthrough. The imperial capital’s defense line,
Raphael, Carina and others present at the scene naturally did not say much because they had always been suspicious of Senat. They only adopted one principle, which was to follow Senat's tone and speak whatever Senat agreed to. They will resolutely implement whatever Senat disagrees with, and they will resolutely oppose it. If it weren't for Heyman's painstaking persuasion, I'm afraid the entire military discussion would have become Senat's decision.
"Hmph, Heyman, you are really troublesome." Senat said with some displeasure: "Anyway, the Army of the Undead has arrived, and the agreement between me and Master Sarfanas cannot be changed. I am here to find you today. Discuss how to attack, not how to break this agreement."
"But, Your Majesty, this is undoubtedly seeking the skin of a tiger. No, this is simply more dangerous than robbing the ancient red dragon of its ten-thousand-year treasure in front of him." Heyman did not care at all about Senat's dissatisfaction with him, and continued to persuade: "Undead The foundation of the legion's existence is death. The current army only has more than one million people, and its combat effectiveness may not be much stronger than ours. But once we fully cooperate with them, the number of these damn bones will increase dramatically in a very short period of time. So what if we defeat the Imperial City, we still won’t become the next victim.”
"Pedantry." Raphael jumped out and said: "His Majesty is the wisest monarch in the continent. How could he not consider this? Hasn't His Majesty already said that he will use various means to limit the expansion of the other party so that they will always become Our assistance is not resistance, and besides, we only have hundreds of thousands of elite troops under our command. If these bones really have other ideas, we can just use them to fill the hole when the time comes."
"Yes, yes." Karina was also playing drums, while the right hand responsible for Senat's safety stood aside like a stone statue, not participating in the discussion at all. Heyman was alone and could not say anything. When he wanted to say something else, Sena Te was already very impatient. He waved his big hand in displeasure and said, "That's it. We will withdraw one hundred thousand soldiers at midnight today and give up the position to the undead army. Let them fight with the imperial capital. We can ride twice as lightly." Dao, to attack Cassano in a sneak attack, as long as we open the door to our westward expansion, the Free Paradise and Moon Moon City are not yet within my grasp. As for the legendary mage, huh, huh, just give him a taste of Master Sarfanas. The 300 shadow wizards I personally trained are so powerful."

This chapter has been updated to about 3 million words. Looking back, I feel a lot of emotion. If it weren’t for the support and encouragement from readers, I couldn’t have imagined that I would be sitting in front of the computer every day for three consecutive years coding word by word until now. So much, I won’t say anything, just one word: thank you, two words: thank you, three words: thank you very much, well, I was very good at math when I was in elementary school, and it took me three to five minutes to calculate addition and subtraction within ten. o(∩_∩)o
