Just as Yalin judged, the purpose of the undead is to meet the mysterious commander of the Scourge Legion. From the perspective of the local undead in the alien world on Esolos Island, a large-scale gathering of an army like the Scourge Legion to attack a country can still cause huge damage. It is not a good thing to cause a sensation in the entire continent. Although the undead compatriots on Esolos Island affirm the strength of the Scourge Legion, it is very depressing that this kind of behavior has caused all countries in the mainland to strictly guard against the undead, especially now that everyone While the undead are desperately searching for the whereabouts of the Star Child to realize their millennium-long cherished wish, blockades and martial law in various countries will seriously delay the action.
Although the true identities of these undead fighting in the western part of the continent are not yet clear, to the undead on Esolos Island they must be a group of lonely ghosts who have lost themselves, just like many undead who are lucky enough to have just awakened from death. Similarly, in confusion, they are still nostalgic for what happened in their lives. The undead awakened for revenge try to kill their enemies. The undead awakened by love try to find their lovers who are still alive. The undead awakened for power are eager to take advantage of them. Endless life to pursue the supreme power! Now these lost undead must have made irrational and crazy actions because of their attachment to their previous lives. As the ancestors of Esolos Island, it is necessary to save these out-of-control compatriots.
The second thing is that the dead lord, Ingham Aesolos, is the leader and is responsible for searching for news about the Star Children in the western part of the continent. The Star Children recorded by the once great soul master Aesolos came to the world after thousands of years, but the power of the Star Children is too powerful, even the most powerful lich Belsmo on Aesolos Island. I can't accurately determine the direction of the Star Child's landing. Now I can only rely on the most primitive methods to search for the Star Child's whereabouts bit by bit.
After landing in the eastern part of the continent, various countries suddenly imposed martial law on the undead, but the undead still received some news, some news about the abnormal movements of the Holy See. Judging from the fact that the Holy See has sent a large number of Bright Knights and Moxia priests to various parts of the continent, it is obvious that the Holy See has also learned about the landing of the Star Children!
The only lord in the world who is located in the divine realm of the highest sky, the goddess Ishtar worshiped by the Holy See must also be looking for the whereabouts of the Star Child.
No matter why, no matter what the reason is, no matter how much the price is, even if it is facing the gods! For too many undead people with endless obsessions. The child of the star who could give the 'truth' finally came back to the world after ten thousand years. No matter what it was, he could not stop himself from pursuing her. He no longer had another ten thousand years to wait, for this! All who stand in the way will perish!
What reassures the Kingdom of Saxony is that, just as the ancient god Yalin predicted, these undead spirits are not aggressive and they are indeed just passing by. Now the undead army passed straight through the Kyanite territory and entered the edge area near the Mist Forest. According to judgment, they should plan to rely on the cover of the forest to advance to the swampland in the north and south direction, which happens to be the base of the Scourge Legion.
The Kingdom of Saxony did not send troops to stop the undead army, and the Holy City did not criticize it. After all, the Holy City has also taken into account the achievements of the Kingdom of Saxony in blocking the Og barbarians over the years. It is really impossible for this already weak country to let the other party mobilize troops to fight the undead.
To deal with the Holy City of the Undead, it was decided to rely on the power of various countries in the western part of the continent. Although the undead were coming fiercely, with the power of the five supreme gods and the assistance of the dragon army hidden behind them, it was not difficult to fight them back into the darkness. Although you may still pay a little price┉┉
Aesolos, the Island of the Dead!
The island of death, originally home to a large number of undead, is still drifting uncertainly on the sea under the cover of fog. Except for some mindless low-level undead and some necromancers who concentrate on their own research, most of the undead in the center of the gloomy island have already disappeared. Set off to the mainland to pursue the Star Children who landed in the human world.
Under a soul-gathering tower used to condense the breath of death, there is a powerful lich that has completely transformed into a soul. At the same time, he is also the commander of the entire Aesolos Island of the Dead and the "soul leader" - Bellsmore. Aesolos is slowly floating into the tower.
There is a skeleton lying on the central stone platform of the Soul Gathering Tower, but the translucent soul attached to the skeleton shows that this is a high-level undead that has become a semi-lich. It's just that the situation of the demilich is quite bad. The soul is already in a state of disappearing and appearing, and what causes this situation is a pale pink crystal spike inserted in the abdomen of the undead. Two necromancers on the side were busy using their withered hands to continuously inject the death aura collected in the Soul Gathering Tower into the demilich, preventing the soul fire of the undead who was almost completely transformed into a lich from being completely extinguished. On one side, there is an undead female wearing a black gauze skirt who is inspecting some tools.
After seeing Bellsmore arriving, the two necromancers bowed slightly and bowed and stepped aside.
"How's the situation with Shutik?"
Bellsmore's voice echoed gloomily in the Soul Gathering Tower, and the souls floating in the Soul Tower also jumped for joy because of this voice and flew in the air.
"The spikes have dissolved a lot. They should be able to be removed now." The female undead who was busy checking the tools whispered.
Different from the withered and terrifying appearance of other undead, the body of this female undead is still wrapped in flesh. To be fair, apart from being slightly thinner, the appearance of the undead is very delicate, giving people a strange sense of beauty. Apart from her appearance, she is still pretty. The temperament of the undead is also slightly different from that of other undead. Every movement reveals a vague elegant posture, but her too pale and bloodless skin and the unique cold expression of the undead make her scary! It is obvious that the female undead who can maintain her unique beauty even in death must have been a stunning beauty with a stunning appearance during her lifetime. Moreover, her vague aura of elegance showed that she should have been trained in aristocratic etiquette during her lifetime. These trained habits were still engraved in her memory after she became an undead, allowing her to reveal them unconsciously.
It's just that everything in the past has moved away from her with her choice. No matter whether she can still maintain her beauty in life, as an undead, no living person will dare to approach her.
Bellsmore nodded: "Prepare the tools and let High Priest Marin and I handle it personally┉┉"
Seeing that the supreme commander of Esolos Island wanted to personally deal with the injured, the two necromancers did not dare to neglect and quickly helped the high priest of the undead, Marin, get the tools to the stone platform.
Shutik Aesolos! A semi-lich necromancer who also has some status on the Isle of the Dead in Aesolos. A few months ago, Shutik, his disciples and a dark warrior set out to collect materials on the mainland. Unexpectedly, he went there Shutik actually fled back to Aesolos Island of the Dead in extremely embarrassed condition.
At that time, a portal suddenly rose in the party square on the island. Just as the nearby undead were about to step forward to see which powerful necromancer was returning to the island, Shutik appeared from the portal extremely weak before he could do so. Let the undead on the side come to their senses, and then a crystal spike passed through the portal and stabbed directly into Xiu Tike's abdomen from behind. What followed was unexpected, the demilich who was originally immune to some physical attacks. The fire of the soul began to weaken instantly, and the place hit by the spike faded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Shutik's soul began to be confused before he even had time to speak, and it was about to completely dissipate before his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Shutik was quickly sent into the Soul Gathering Tower. However, when someone tried to pull out the spikes on Shutik's body, they found that this would speed up the extinguishing of Shutik's soul fire. After inspection by High Priest Marin, it was discovered that this crystal spike has the power to eliminate magic, and it is precisely because of this power that the spike is constantly destroying the body of the semi-lich Shutik. At the same time, the spikes have already penetrated too deep. If he forced it now, it would stir up Shutik's already extremely weak soul fire.
A demi-lich fled back to the Island of the Dead in embarrassment, and according to inspection, this portal was created by the demi-lich at the expense of his soul. The other two undead who followed the demi-lich did not return, so it was obvious that the situation was in danger. . This incident caused a lot of talk on the island of Aesolos. Many undead wanted to know what happened, but the demilich whose soul fire was almost extinguished had fallen into a coma and could not give an answer. In the end, Marin, the high priest of the undead, decided to first use a large amount of death breath to maintain the demilich's soul fire, and then slowly use a special acid to dissolve the crystal spikes until the spikes became small enough to be safely pulled out. degree.
"I want to tell you one thing┉┉I found out some information about that spike." Marlene, the high priest of the undead, suddenly said before preparing for the 'operation'.
"What?"
"Shutik may have provoked something that shouldn't be provoked on the mainland! That spike┉┉" Marin paused and then her expression became rare and solemn: "It's an extremely rare dragon species - crystal." Dragon's scales!"
Bellsmore was also stunned. As a lich who had lived for an unknown number of years, Bellsmore had extremely profound experience. Crystal dragon! A giant dragon recorded in the literature that is immune to all magic, whether it is elemental magic or natural magic, or even necromancy spells cast with the breath of death. It can be said to be the nemesis of all spellcasters in the world. exist.
"Crystal Dragon┉┉If it is true, it seems that Shutik's trip will be wonderful, but we will ask about the details after he wakes up."
After saying that, the Lich picked up a clamp and clamped the spike firmly. The female high priest of the undead, Marlene, helped stabilize Shutik's soul fire. The two of them cooperated very well. The crystal spike began to move one by one. The point was pulled out, and when it was almost done, Bellsmore pulled out the crystal spike completely with a fierce force.
"Okay, what's next?" Bellsmore asked after putting the spikes into the iron plate on the side.
Marlene started to pack up her tools and replied calmly: "It depends on when Shutik will wake up. He lost some souls in order to open the portal, and he has been tortured by this spike for so long. It will probably take some time to recover." (To be continued...)
