Chapter 293: Umbrella Project (2-in-1)

Nicholas and Bai Xiaowen had a showdown, in order to dispel Bai Xiaowen's concerns and learn more details.

And Bai Xiaowen was indeed able to reveal more details after he didn't need to hide the identity of the visitor from another world.

The two talked for a long time.

Eventually, Nicholas said:

"I agree in principle with your 'umbrella' plan. However, now is not the time to start......"

Bai Xiaowen nodded in understanding, just like Archbishop Arlo, even Nicholas had to give three points, and his resolute opposition would definitely attract a large number of people to stand on his side.

Nicholas also has to think about his own future, and he can't just go his own way.

However, Nicholas allowed Bai Xiaowen to act cheaply, and at Bai Xiaowen's request, a special warrant was issued.

"All the activities of those who hold this decree are related to the survival of mankind. For this reason, they are hereby permitted to act at will on any occasion, without interference by anyone, and to make every effort to facilitate it. Nicholas Kane, November 29, 1021. ”

Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi said goodbye and left.

Walking to the gate of the Black Rock City Lord's Mansion, Bai Xiaowen found that a group of people were already waiting there.

"Dio, how is the matter, and what is the attitude of His Royal Highness the Prince?" Cecilia did not attend this high-level military meeting, but from the mouths of others, she had heard that "Baron Dior" had come up with a crazy plan, and even the usually kind Archbishop Arlo had expressed his opposition with rare clarity.

"As with the outcome of the discussion at the meeting, it was put on hold for the time being. Bai Xiaowen said.

"So, what exactly does the plan look like?" Cecilia's eyes flashed with curiosity, even the white rose, which has always been cold, could not hide the nature of a woman in front of her lover.

Bai Xiaowen looked around, and many people were looking forward to it.

"This is not the place to talk. ”

Bai Xiaowen took Cecilia and Li Shuyi and walked back to the residence in the midst of everyone's slander, and then handed the folded parchment plan to Cecilia to read.

When Cecilia read the plan, Bai Xiaowen had already recalled Kitz, and then re-summoned it in front of him.

With a bang, a disheveled Kitts appeared in the room, wearing only a large pair of pants, revealing his rough pecs......

"What's going on?" Kitts looked around blankly, one second he was still enjoying the afterglow of a happy time in bed, the next second he was locked up in a small dark room, and the third second he appeared in front of the lord boss, which made Kitts a little confused.

"I summoned you back. Bai Xiaowen explained briefly.

“...... Boss, can you do it milder next time?" Kitts grimaced.

"I don't have the patience to run through the brothels and prostit......utes in Black Rock City," Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and said, "Kitts, I'll give you a task." Take this secret order and set off tonight to ...... Momiji Ling"

Kitz's work attitude is obviously much more positive than that of Dr. Zombie, and he is not annoyed by interrupting his sleep, after Bai Xiaowen told the content of the task, he patted his chest to ensure that it was completed, and then went to make up for sleep.

It's daylight, and in daylight conditions, Kitts has a 20% penalty for all stats as a vampire. Moreover, although Black Rock City is not encircled, there should be enemy scouts nearby, so it is safer to walk at night, and the night is the home of the vampire Kitts.

By this time, Cecilia had already finished reading the plan. Her always calm, rarely surprised face was full of shock.

"Dior, you ...... Is it true that everything is written on it?"

"That's just the rough outline of the plan. Cecilia, remember to keep it a secret. Bai Xiaowen said.

“...... But is there no other way?" Cecilia said.

"Cecilia, you have to remember that I won't set in motion this damn plan even if there is even a glimmer of hope. Bai Xiaowen could only reiterate.

"It's a very radical plan, but I'm willing to believe you, Dio. Cecilia understood how much resistance there was to the plan in Black Rock, but she made her stand out.

The favorability of the best friend level and the devotion to the love level are really good.

"Cecilia, what would you think of me if I wasn't a lord, or even a person from this continent and this dimensional world?"

Bai Xiaowen remembered his own identity problem, since Prince Nicholas could see through it, then it was only a matter of time before others knew that he was a visitor from another plane.

In Bai Xiaowen's plan, it was a matter of time before Cecilia explained the truth.

However, Cecilia seemed to have been mentally prepared for a long time, and after a little shock, she regained her smile and said: "Dior, I love you now, and it has nothing to do with your identity and origin. ”

Cecilia's two arms wrapped around Bai Xiaowen's neck, and her warm lips pressed against Bai Xiaowen's lips.

In fact, when Cecilia and Bai Xiaowen danced, they felt a trace of doubt, Bai Xiaowen almost didn't know how to dance at all, which was quite inconsistent with the rumored image of Baron Dior, the lord of White Rock Town, as a playboy......

"Ahem!" Li Shuyi coughed.

Bai Xiaowen came back to his senses, quickly let go of the hand holding Cecilia's small waist, and laughed embarrassedly: "I don't know when the next attack of the remnants will start." In my plan, there are still some things that need to be improved. Cecilia, I need your help. ”

"Just open your mouth. Cecilia said.

......

In the aftermath of the Great War, the Human Coalition tried to send troops out to repair the towers.

The remnant army spent a lot of money to destroy all the arrow towers on the periphery, and of course it was impossible to sit idly by and watch the human combined forces repair it.

Over the next two days, although no large-scale siege battles broke out, skirmishes were quite intense. In the end, due to the interference of the remnant coalition, the human coalition only repaired a few arrow towers near the city gates, and the plan to reorganize the defense system was considered to be in vain.

The seventh day of the Black Rock Fortress Defense.

In the early morning, the alarm bell on the castle tower rang in a hurry, waking up the sleeping people.

"They...... They're coming!"

"It's the undead!

Ascending the tower, a group of high-level human beings looked at it from afar, and they were all in shock.

Before seeing the plague army of the undead with one's own eyes, it is difficult to realize what the army of tens of thousands of undead looks like just by imagining it.

Thousands of people in the city, ten thousand people in the wilderness.

These slow-moving, expressionless armies of plague undead filled the wilderness.

"Woo woo woo ......"

The trumpet sounded, and behind the plague undead army, a group of elite remnants were fully armed and ready to attack the city.

"The enemy is already in range!!" shouted the Earl of Denton.

The stone throwers on the ramparts began to roar, throwing a bullet of stone. Columns of archers stood on the city walls, arrows raining down.

But these rain of stones and arrows, in front of the endless sea of the undead, are like pebbles, and they can't make any waves at all. Kill one, ten plague undead, and the next moment more plague undead fill their slots.

"Archbishop Arlo, can you cast another magic ......" Many nobles were desperate and threw a look of help at Arlo.

Archbishop Arlo's face turned a little pale and shook his head slowly.

No matter how powerful Archbishop Arlo's forbidden spell was, it was impossible to envelop a battlefield several kilometers in diameter. According to Bai Xiaowen's understanding, a high-level spellcaster leader like him can play a pivotal role in a local-scale battle, such as the first day.

And now, the plague undead army has surrounded the Black Rock Fortress on all sides, filling the entire plain, and Archbishop Arlo has no power to return to the sky.

"This is only the first batch," Bai Xiaowen said to Nicholas, "If we wait until Black Rock City is breached before making a decision, it will be too late." ”

Nicholas's face was stiff and he couldn't make out his expression.

Li Shuyi pulled the corner of Bai Xiaowen's clothes, pulled him aside, and asked in a low voice, "What if Nicholas doesn't agree to it in the end?"

Bai Xiaowen replied softly: "Before the city is broken, I will start directly." ”

Bai Xiaowen will not completely pin his hopes on the aborigines of the spirit world, for him, the main quest "The War of Black Rock" must be completed, which is the premise of all the benefits in the second stage.

The reason why Nicholas must agree is also very simple, Bai Xiaowen hopes that Nicholas can carry this black cauldron for him - this pot is too big, and Bai Xiaowen's head is too small.

Under a dense rain of arrows, the plague undead army rushed under the city walls.

The way of attacking the city wall is also quite capricious, rushing to the front of the plague undead and lying directly under the base of the city wall...... The latecomers followed and lay down, and used their bodies to build a mound of the dead!

On the city walls, Archbishop Arlo and others, not without preparation, poured diluted holy water instead of boiling oil downward. Bai Xiaowen's eyes twitched constantly, this is all Bai Huahua's meritorious points!

Diluting the holy water is indeed effective for the undead, it is very corrosive, and the dead white skin of the plague undead is ulcerating in large areas, and the health value is falling down, and they are dying one after another.

However, under the control of the plague lord, the plague undead are all fearless and painless dead soldiers, regardless of whether boiling oil or holy water is poured on their heads, they are all unmoved, and faithfully carry out the orders of the plague lord, and fill the height of the city wall with their own bodies.

"We can't let them rush anymore!

The gates of the Black Rock Fortress opened, and the Earl of Denton and other powerful men led the charge in an attempt to break the line of the plague undead.

The individual combat power of these plague undead is actually very weak, and they are basically elementary ordinary templates.

The cavalry of the Imperial Legion led by the Earl of Denton, everywhere they went, the plague spirits fell like wheat.

But it didn't work, for every plague undead died, more plague undead rushed up to fill the place. And the cavalry under the command of the Earl of Denton, if they were accidentally pulled off their horses, they were the result of being beaten and had no chance of survival.

A few charges, although they killed a lot of plague undead, did not mean anything to the entire battle situation.

The bodies of the plague undead, whether they live or die, are at the foot of the city walls, and they are constantly raising the "hill of the dead".

In the rear, the wolf cavalry of the orcs and the velociraptor hunter troops of the trolls have all set up arrays. Wait until the Hill of the Dead is level with the city walls, with these elite agility and speed, you can ignore the city walls and rush directly into Black Rock City!

"Your Highness, abandon the city!" the chief of staff and the magic advisor admonished.

Nicholas glanced at Archbishop Arlo, who shook his head at him with a blank expression.

“...... Dio, Project Umbrella, start now!" Nicholas's face suddenly became gloomy and cold, and he gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Bai Xiaowen finally waited for this moment, and he waved his hand: "The city defense army retreated, and the Baishi army threw the 'Ultimate Plague Buster' ......"

The city defenders, who were shooting arrows and pouring oil on the city, retreated one after another to make way for Prince Nicholas with the consent of Prince Nicholas. And the soldiers of the White Rock Army, who had been preparing for a long time, appeared one by one with large wooden barrels on their backs and water pipes in their hands.

"The ultimate plague buster?"

All the human nobles were a little surprised, they had heard that the Erudito under Bai Xiaowen's command had developed a series of medicines for the Plague Buster, and Black Rock City was able to completely clean up the Necromantic Plague Virus, thanks to the three types of drugs brought by Bai Xiaowen: Primary, Advanced and Super Plague Buster.

It's just that the ultimate plague buster really hasn't heard of it.

Could it be that Bai Xiaowen's "umbrella plan" is to cure these plague undead? Isn't the plague buster medicine only effective for humans who have not yet been transformed into undead?

With questions, everyone looked at the soldiers of the White Stone Army, aiming their water hoses at the dense plague spirits below, and sprayed streams of pale white solution.

These pale white solutions quickly penetrated into the bodies of the plague undead.

"Like...... Nothing special had an effect. A group of people paid attention to it, and someone carefully gave an evaluation.

"Roar!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a beastly roar was heard from below the city walls.

One by one, the plague undead who had fallen suddenly got back on their feet! Even the plague undead who had been drained of their health and died.

The meaningless roars of these beasts emanate from the mouths of the undead who have risen again.

Their size hasn't changed much compared to before, but their movements have stiffened a lot, and the corners of their mouths are still dripping with unknown fluid, making them a little more disgusting.

There was an exclamation on the city wall, and I saw that one of the undead who had stood up again turned around and pounced on his former companion, and before the other party could react, he bit down hard!

The same action was seen on other undead who stood up again.

"Stone-throwing machine ready!" Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and ordered, one by one, the stone-throwing machine installed special wooden barrels instead of stone bullets, and swooped into the distance, in the sea of plague and undead.

"Now, let me explain to you the content of the umbrella plan, which is to sprinkle a large number of 'Ultimate Plague Busters' all over the Northern Frontier! The plague undead who have come into contact with the ultimate plague buster, as well as the ordinary infected who have not yet become the plague undead, will be forcibly transformed," Bai Xiaowen pointed to the undead who stood up again one by one near the root of the city wall and said, "Now, they have a new name, called ...... Zombie. ”
