Chapter Seventy-Five: The Army of the Necromancy? Broken Silver Lake
In Orquila, the same name as the warm woodland is the Broken Silver Lake.
The Broken Silver Lake is about 3,000 square meters and is located on the outskirts of the city of Osgiria. As its name suggests, the water of the lake is clean and clear, and when viewed from a distance, it is sparkling, just like a lake of rotten silver, and it is beautiful. The lake is covered with many water lilies, dotted with red, green, and green, which complement the lake scenery. If you can hold a small boat on the lake, feel the cool breeze blowing by, the water vapor, and play with the delicate lotus buds, it is really refreshing. Many bards were deeply moved and wrote poems for them, several of which have been sung throughout the ages. Maybe you'll see a landscape painting of a broken silver lake in an ordinary house on the Gospel continent - even though the owner of the house has never been to Orquilla in his life.
Broken Silver Lake is rich in freshwater fish. The fish here are a few points larger than those farmed in other lakes, but the meat is more delicate and tasty. The local way to eat is to remove the internal organs of the fish, scrape the scales and wash it, and then smoke and roast it on a string, sprinkle only a little lemon juice to remove the fishy smell, and no other condiments are added, so that the gravy flows out during the smoking and grilling process, which is naturally a delicacy. There are some poor and extravagant aristocrats in foreign countries, who will deliberately spend more than ten times the price of the freight to buy fresh freshwater fish in Broken Silver Lake, in order to get the envy of the guests at the banquet, which can also be seen in the reputation of Broken Silver Lake freshwater fish.
In "Doomsday Encounter", the Shattered Silver Lake is shattered by otherworldly creatures, and the fish are nearly dead. Under the impetus of magic, the lake slowly regained its former vitality, and it must not be long before the world can see a lake of broken silver with clear waves again.

"President...... How long are we going to soak in it? β
"Wait!"
Along the water, the mountains and his members were swimming at this time, or more precisely, diving. Hundreds of people had been hiding in the Broken Silver Lake on the outskirts of Osgillia for nearly an hour, all staring at each other in a daze. From time to time, a few fish swam by, looked at the corpses curiously, and then swam away with a swagger.
Necromantic creatures do not need to breathe, they can naturally walk and lurk in the water, and they will not be hypothermic due to soaking in water for too long, and they can use the soul wavelength to talk, which is very convenient. However, unlike walking on land, water has resistance, any movement of a person will become clumsy (except for ghosts), and there will always be people who will be amused by other people's postures and make a mess. All of them brought a piece of black granite, a specialty of the Blackstone Valley, to increase their weight so as not to float to the surface of the lake. Of course, even if you float on the surface of the lake, no one will notice it under the cover of night.
Goo-dong, goo-dong!
In the distance, the sound of heavy objects falling kept coming, and the sound reverberated over and over again with the ripples for a long time. Knowing that it was June's sunshine, the other members also showed a relieved look: "Oh, shit! Finally, I don't have to soak anymore! β
The June sunshine really came. Beside him, Frankie, the Red Devil hound, who had always been fierce, was moving forward in a dog-planing style with a serious (and seemingly cheerful) face, giving him a mixed feeling of wanting to laugh but having to maintain his solemnity. A beautiful man's ghost still admired on the sidelines: "Lord Frangi! Even in the water, your posture is still so strong and powerful! You're the best fighter anyone has ever seen! β
Beside the water and mountains: "......"
"You weren't spotted by anyone when you dived, did you?" Qingyi asked.
"Nope." The water and the mountains replied honestly.
"That's good, let's go!"
The large army began to trek, and each action was like slow motion. Because they were trampled on by many feet, the mud and sand floated up, and the water was muddy. Even necromantic creatures with night vision will stumble in this situation: "Hey, you're stepping on my foot!" "you, I've tripped and fallen to the ground, how can I step on your feet?" "Oh? Is that so? Hehe, hehehe......"
Ignoring the chaos behind him, Qingyi moved forward step by step.
Walking a few steps along the mountain, parallel to Qingyi, he asked, "I heard that the fish in Broken Silver Lake are delicious, have you ever eaten them?" β
"Delicious? I'm telling you, these fish all grew up eating carcasses. Qingyi was expressionless and frightened. He was not entirely wrong, after all, there were so many "social dross" living in the sewers of Osgilia, and if they died, they would be thrown directly into the waterways and flow down the river into the Broken Silver Lake, which naturally became food for the fish. With such abundant nutrition, the fish are fattened and the meat can be delicious.
"Oh God...... I don't dare to eat fish anymore. "The water and the mountains are disgusting, and the face is bitter.
Within a few minutes, everyone came to the lake wall, a huge iron gate. The gate consisted of a number of steel bars, which were covered with thick dirt (and greasy). Behind it is a large hole with a diameter of five meters, dark and gloomy, with no end in sight, which is the outlet of the sewers of Osgilia, where all the sewage is discharged. The water is surging slowly, and from time to time some waste paper, nails, bones and other garbage will float out of the outlet.
"Do you really want to go in?" Beside the water and the mountains, ask Qingyi.
"You don't want credit anymore?"
Beside the water, the mountain hung his head: "Okay, when I didn't say it." What is the battle plan this time? β¦β¦β
"'Ming Xiu plank road, dark Chen Cang', this trick I like to use the most, it's just a hundred shots. Since the creatures are sticking to each town and resolutely not leaving us a chance, then we won't go toe-to-toe with them. Use other guilds as smoke bombs to hide our true intentions - to attack Osgilia. From the perspective of a living player, they'll just think we're at a loss for what we can't do, and they'll never think we're going to rush to Osculia near death. β
The water and the mountains can't help but be staggered: an incredibly fierce camp conflict turned out to be just a smoke bomb? The man in front of him, is he joking, or does he really have such a huge battle plan? If you think about it, this plan is crazy: an army of lower rank and fewer people than the opponent will pass between the battlefields of the fierce battle, penetrate deep into the heart of the enemy's rear, and attack the enemy's base camp without support or supplies?!!
"This plan is for sneak attacks, so it's okay to have fewer people. No matter how tightly defended the city is, as long as there is one point that is not well cared for, then it is equivalent to doing useless work. For humans, 'infiltrating the city through the sewers' is a fantasy, so the sewers are their blind spot and the only hole in the city's defenses. Therefore, the sewers are the key to this battle, and as long as you can successfully dive in, you can capture the city from the inside and minimize the damage. β
With Qingyi's introduction, the necromantic creatures have begun to act, put away the stones hanging on their bodies, and have burrowed into the gaps between the iron gates and steel bars. While this gap is large enough for one person to pass through, some of the larger ones, such as the Ghost Hounds, will still be rubbed with dirt and will not be embarrassed.
"Let's go in too."
Greeted by Qingyi, he sneaked in in ignorance by the water, and advanced with the help of the light emitted by the "Guardian of the Throne". The walls of the sewer pipes are made of large blocks of masonry, and the stones are also covered with thick silt, and there is a subtle nausea to step on. There are also aquatic plants growing in the crevices of the stones, which flutter with the waves of the water, gently sweeping over the players, like a pair of boneless hands in the dark, which can always scare the players.
("Honestly, even if it's all shadows, Uncle Ben doesn't want to live here.") Xue Duo sighed: "People must always pursue some quality of life in life." βοΌ
The newcomer, Oskol, smiled and ignored the filthy surroundings and followed Qingyi. There is also a glimmer of light on his body, which makes him even more chic and unrefined - "out of the mud without staining", which can be used to describe him.
"Up." He said suddenly.
"Huh?" Before Shui Yishan could react, Qingyi grabbed his arm and pulled him upstream. It turns out that this sewer is not a flat river, but has many twists and turns, and if you don't go diagonally above this position, you will hit your head on the stone wall.
"In order to prevent the lake from backing up into Osgilia, the engineers deliberately set up undulating waterways, so that there was a difference in the height of the water level. Of course, this measure can also act as a layered filtration, with some waterways diverting large amounts of filthy sewage to four large sedimentation tanks to prevent the lake from being polluted. "Oskol is a treasure.
("Is this still called 'so as not to be polluted'?") I think it's dirty enough. Xue Duo said disdainfully)
After a while, Qingyi surfaced and stretched out his right hand to Frankie. Frankie was already waiting in the aisle next to him, and when he said "offended", he bit Qingyi's arm and pulled him up. After Qingyi came up, he rode on Frankie's back and rushed straight forward, ignoring the rushing water and mountains there. The ghost wolf and the ghost hound jumped up the aisles on both sides, and shook off their bodies on the spot, and only after shaking off the droplets of water did they follow the patriarch; Some of them have seen narrow roads, so they simply do not go ashore and swim in the sewage instead. The vanguard was well-planned and orderly, and its morale was very strong.
He scolded a few words, grabbed the edge of the aisle, and finally flipped up, and immediately summoned his mount. In the midst of the glowing magic array, a skeleton horse snorted at the sky and walked up to him. He mounted his horse behind his back and launched a [charge] recklessly, knocking the puppies back into the water like dumplings, finally catching up with the June sun.
Qingyi glanced at him lightly and didn't say anything. He focused his attention on other places, say, sewers...... Empty?
"What's going on, I remember there were a lot of poor people here? Could it be that they moved away? No, where on earth is there a place for them to liveβare they all killed? β
"How is that possible!" Beside the water, Yishan shook his head again and again: "Who has a reason to kill these poor people?" Castle Lord? Hahaha, these little things don't matter, let's keep going! β
Qing Yi ignored him, opened the [Soul Eye], and was immediately shocked - this sewer has a dense soul fire! If they could possess entities, the soul force field that naturally emanated alone would be enough to force Qingyi to not be able to walk! Some of the grievances are deposited in the waterways and mixed with the silt to become an indescribable substance.
"Indeed, Your Majesty, you are really ice and snow smart." With his hands behind his back, Oskol flew through the air (keeping pace with Franchi's speed). "Karl, the lord of Osgilia, was a traditional aristocrat who attached great importance to his political achievements. In his opinion, it is already a great gift to let those poor people live in sewers, and it doesn't matter if they are burned and killed, parasites are endless. β
(Xue Duo: "Hey!") Are parasites messing with you? Strange, why should I speak for parasites? It's weird......")
Qingyi reacted: "So, it was because of my infiltration last time that these poor people died?" β
"You don't have to mind, the sewer dwellers will die in the future, if they don't die now. If you know Lord Karl, you know that what he says is true. Oskol said with a smile.
"You're mistaken, I don't mind at all."
Hearing this, Oskol's eyes showed appreciation, and his smile became brighter.
The White Bone Tyrant said: "I have seen the same thing as the City Lord of Cal, of course, the more humans die, the better. β
