Mortarion was furious.
This was supposed to be a foolproof annihilation campaign, but because he underestimated the enemy, the lord used psychic teleportation to escape.
Damn, teleportation is a very rare and advanced sorcery. Mortarion didn't expect that the lord on Barbarus actually knew it.
Even his adoptive father, the most powerful wizard on Barbarus, couldn't teleport, but this alien wizard could? ?
But this was his fault. He did not expect this sudden teleportation, allowing Lazar, who had no chance of escaping, to slip away from his knife.
Standing in the wreckage of his battle with Lord Lazar, Mortarion angrily wondered where the cunning fellow might have teleported to, and realized that the less experienced Death Guard rebels down the mountain might be his target.
Damn it!!!
While cursing in his heart, he commanded and led the rebels on the mountain to quickly go down the mountain along the main road.
However - a rebel guarding the path suddenly ran up and told him that Lazar had suddenly teleported to this path.
How is it possible? Why would the cunning Lord Lazar teleport to such a place? There is no good defensive position there, and it is not far from Mortarion's position.
Why would Lazar go to a place like that? Could it be that his magic can only teleport to this extent
Or is it that this rebel has been controlled by the aliens using witchcraft and is deceiving him
Mortarion looked at Herrera. He knew her. This little girl was the only one willing to team up with his friend Hades.
Tears almost filled her eyes. The frantic running forced her to breathe heavily. It was obvious that her respirator could not withstand it. She seemed to have inhaled some poisonous gas.
But there was no trace of witchcraft or corruption about her.
It seems highly likely that it is true.
Mortarion asked Typhon to continue marching along the main road with his elite troops, while he followed Herilla on the small road.
If what Herrera said was true...
Then Hades is most likely already...
Mortarion suppressed his uneasy thoughts. He should have trusted his friend.
But he ran faster and faster, faster and faster—
—
—Then they saw Hades leaping in the air, swinging his scythe like a full moon, and cutting off the ugly head of the alien lord!
What!!!
Mortarion's eyes widened in disbelief.
Blood and heads were flying, blood gushed out from the exploded alien body, and Hades landed precisely in the center of the blood fountain. His entire body was covered in blood, both his own and the alien's.
The entire trail looked like a crayon drawing that had been scribbled all over with blood plasma by a child.
Hades stood in the center of the picture, lowering his sickle like an old farmer who had just harvested rice, and the blood plasma on the blade of the sickle was the weed leaves stuck on it.
Hades noticed them, turned his head and gave them a forced smile through his gas mask.
At this moment, all the glimmer of Barbaros seemed to gather around Hades.
—Then his figure swayed, staggered, and slowly fell down.
At the same time, the guy's extremely vital voice began to wail,
“Aaaaaaaaaaah!!! It hurts!!! Help!! I’m dying!!! Help!!!”
This guy definitely won't die. Not only will he not die, but Mortarion also bets that he will be fine.
The guy who deserves a beating.
Although he thought so, Mortarion and Herrera still quickly ran to Hades' side. He carefully checked Hades' wounds. Except for the heavy bleeding and serious poisoning, this guy was really fine.
-Unlike his usual careless and inattentive impression, Hades is extremely meticulous in battle.
—He defends very well.
But Hades was still howling like a ghost, so Mortarion had no choice but to drag him off the alien's corpse and throw him to Herrera, who was also crying like a tearful person.
This guy's ghostly howls instantly turned into soft hums.
The guy who deserves a beating.
Mortarion thought so again.
For example, the Death Guard he led believed in fighting and marching in silence, and would never make a sound even if they were injured or died.
And Hades is an outlier...
Anyway, Hades rarely participated in large-scale combat and would not disrupt the morale of the army, so Mortarion tolerated Hades' occasional madness, just as he tolerated Typhon's bad words.
Realizing that Hades was not in danger of death or disability, Mortarion ignored him.
He pulled the dagger he had just thrown from the corpse.
Then he walked around the body of the alien lord to examine it. Although Mortarion was convinced that even though Hades was only fourteen years old, his combat power was among the best among the Death Guard.
But that doesn't mean he can kill a lord who is skilled in the use of psionics all by himself.
As someone who had fought with Lord Lazar, Mortarion knew how powerful this guy's psychic sorcery was. Apart from him, most mortals could only withstand one blow at best.
Then he saw it, the stone broken in two.
He picked it up; the sickening, evil wizard smell was completely gone.
Mortarion was deeply impressed by this stone. In the battle with Lord Lazar, many of Lazar's witchcraft were launched with the help of this stone.
And he didn't remember any signs of damage to the stone when Lazar escaped in the end - even if he tried to attack it, it would always be bounced back by the powerful warp distortion on it.
He knew that Lazar had obtained the stone by sacrificing countless villagers, but Lazar himself had not contributed his soul - which meant that the stone had nothing to do with Lazar's own life or death.
In other words, it was not Lazar's death that caused the stone to crack.
This stone was broken by other attacks.
Is Hades also a hidden psychic wizard
No, it's impossible. A psychic wizard can't do this. If he uses witchcraft to attack the stone, an evil aura will be left on it.
But now there is nothing on this stone, literally, no breath can be sensed.
Mortarion frowned as he put the two cracked pieces of stone away.
Then he carried Hades on his back and asked Herrera to hold the alien lord's head, and together they went to join the rebels at the foot of the mountain.
The only consolation for him was that Hades had fainted from the battle and excessive blood loss, and finally closed his mouth.
Hades is now lying happily on the bed, enjoying the feeding from Herrera...
The girl's soft body was half leaning against Hades, her long eyelashes were trembling slightly as she looked at Hades tenderly, her eyes were so soft that they could pull out silk.
There were some tiny freckles dotted around her pretty nose, and although her lips, which were corroded by Barbarus's poison gas, were abnormally pale, they were also small and delicate.
Hades swore that he even smelled a faint scent of soap, even though soap was terribly scarce on Babarus.
.
Uh… wait, that expression… is Hades actually happy instead of miserable
The girl was holding a bowl of indescribable purple liquid. Thick yellow fat floated on the top of the soup. As Herrera stirred it with a spoon, some chopped chunks floated up.
She shook up a spoonful of an unknown object and gently handed it to Hades. The pungent smell instantly covered up the soap scent on the girl's body.
Hades swore that he had to use all his strength to swallow back the stomach acid that was coming up.
He used all his control, which was comparable to the perseverance he had when he raised the knife to cut Lazar. Hades forced a smile and looked at Herrera.
Herilla looked back at him shyly.
"Hades, it's time to eat~"
Dalang, it's time to take medicine~
Help! ! ! !
Hades: In my previous life, I was a great magician who had cultivated to great success.
Also, Mortarion is really good to the Death Guard.
In "The Silent Lords", Mortarion "gently" helped up the Death Guard Walker.
And in a novel I forgot which novel, Mortarion pulled the Death Guard, who was unable to fight anymore, out of the enemy's encirclement and put them in a safe rear.
My loving father would definitely like this.
