Chapter 0591 - Gear Up
When the legendary lich returned, no graveyard undead dared to stop him. If it weren't for the terrifying Super Stitch, no one would dare to confront this legendary lich alone. The guys who can really compete with him are still lurking in the mage tower that is ready to attack!
As soon as the legendary lich returned to his side, Lux greeted him with a puzzled face.
"My lord, how is the strength of the other party? This battle ...... "Lux is most concerned about this."
"Don't worry, the opponent's strength is not as strong as we estimated before! Although that Anglie tried his best to cover it up, I could sense that his personal strength had never crossed the threshold of the Holy Rank, and even I suspected that he had not even crossed the threshold of level 16. ”
"How is this possible? Just now, he showed the power of the realm......"
"It's not a realm, it's a strange art similar to a realm, without the self-contained sense of rejection that characterizes the real realm. The real realm should be an alternative world built with the power of the rules that you are familiar with, and it will be alien to the world of the undead and mutually exclusive. But when you saw him cast that spell just now, there were two mutually exclusive reactions of different rule forces on the edge of the spell? ”
Sazastan can still call himself an authority on the determination of the realm, after all, he is a legendary lich with a realm - the Frost Realm.
It's a pity that the specific power of his domain has not been widely circulated in the outside world, so there is no way to know. A qiē real intelligence also needs to be pieced together with blood on the battlefield.
Now that we know who the enemy is in front of us, there is no possibility that the next war will be calmed down.
While the Council of the Dead regards the psychic Warlock Angelel as the enemy of life and death, why not the Necropolis regard these legendary lichs as the biggest stumbling block and competitor to its rise!
Peers are enemies!
What's more, there are still two undead forces that are almost following the same route.
The Necropolis does not have the fatal flaw of the Council of the Dead in terms of the extinction of life, and there is no need to appear as an "enemy of life", and it is still possible to "live in harmony" with many living species. But if you allow a-stirring stick like the Council of the Undead to toss around, sooner or later it will trigger a full-scale "war of the dead" on the Klein Continent. At that time, there will not be any intelligent race that will have the mood and the energy to distinguish between the good and the bad.
So no, from the same position on the Klein plane, I'm afraid that the first one to fight with the Council of the Dead will be the Necropolis.
A high-quality material plane with abundant resources, rich enough species, and a plane level is only a foot away from the door is so difficult to find, the cemetery will not give up such a place to settle down. Since the growth of the Necropolis is inseparable from Klein, the bad influence of the Council of the Dead must be controlled to the fullest, so the Necropolis will not let go of all opportunities that can hit the forces of the Council of the Dead.
Both sides regard each other as mortal enemies, so the next war will obviously not end.
The horn of no charge sounded, and the fire of the battle that had just stopped was rekindled almost instantly.
Thousands of undead creatures of different shapes and forms crowded and shoved, climbed the mountain of corpses, climbed the peak, and fought to the death again on the rugged and narrow pile of corpses.
This time, it was obvious that the legendary lich side also broke out with all its strength, in addition to the undead cannon fodder all over the mountains, all the middle and high-level undead also mixed into the sea of soldiers, and launched the most violent impact on the cemetery side.
If nothing else, there are as many as 11 lord-level undead creatures that have long been marked by the cemetery, and one of them has reached the standard of the Holy Rank.
Under the leadership of these guys, the already solid and scorched battle line began to move towards the foot of the wall of Stratholme visibly, and the terrifying corpse peak was instantly left behind, but it became an alternative garrison line outside the cemetery.
The high-ranking members of the camp led by Sazastan, Lux, and Phinea naturally retreated to the vicinity of the Corpse Peak to inspect the battle situation on the front line, while those high-ranking undead with outstanding combat power led many subordinates to frequently storm the cemetery's defense line as the leader.
For a time, Stratholme could have been described by the word "devastating".
Due to the deep hiding of elite soldiers in the cemetery, in addition to the new types of troops that are used to test specific combat power, the ones hoarded outside the city are all inferior peripheral corps, so the undead legion with the core backbone is powerless to parry. Almost half a day later, the more than 200,000 cannon fodder regiments located on the outskirts of Stratholme were surrounded and killed.
The whole process was bloody and abnormal, and the battlefield was full of corpses, stumps and broken arms. Many of the remnants of the soul fire were still wriggling, moving towards the nearest "enemy" one by one.
The cemetery paid the price of 200,000 cannon fodder, in exchange for the loss of nearly 300,000 on the side of the undead legion.
There are no injuries in the War of the Dead, only death.
Those with severed limbs can basically recover their normal combat strength as long as they rest for a while, so there are no light and serious wounded at all.
Many heads were screwed off, but the soul fire was not extinguished, and after the victory, there were naturally companions to come to help. Picking up the hideous zombie head that was still muttering for help, the body staggered around the pile of corpses, randomly found a zombie body that was still intact, patted off the already sparse half of the head, and pressed the zombie head that was still intact.
The whole rescue process was simple and crude, but the effect was not satisfactory.
In less than a moment, the rescued zombies also staggered to their feet.
However, there is a lack of careful selection and a lack of patience and meticulousness, and many newly standing zombies are obviously "unadaptable". The skull hung crookedly on the neck, and half of the tangled flesh was necrotic and broken. There are even a few "volunteers" who encounter rough hands and feet, and they directly put their heads upside down, walk crookedly, and finally have to forcibly screw their heads to the front end.
The indifferent Cemetery Corps stood on top of the wall of bones, ignoring the scene and scene that was happening at their feet, allowing them to examine the corpses and rest the wounded. As long as the enemy does not come close to within 100 meters of the city walls, there will be no active attack.
The hard work of the cemetery seems to have been ineffective.
Although it successfully consumed nearly 300,000 soldiers on the side of the Undead Legion, with the end of the first battle, the huge number of the Undead Legion still seemed to be crowded, and the black pressure filled the entire horizon. In comparison, the merit just now is like a wave in the sea, fleeting and not worth mentioning at all.
To be honest, in the eyes of the top leaders on both sides, the casualties of hundreds of thousands of cannon fodder are really not worth mentioning.
For the kings of the undead world, no matter how many low-level undead are just cannon fodder, what can really decide the outcome of a war is the battle between elite undead. Once the two undead kings start fighting, it will not be possible for them to develop to the point of king against king in a year or two. Even if it really comes to the point of king against king, only those who can intervene in the legendary undead battle are those well-cultivated saint-level subordinates, and it is difficult for ordinary lord-level people to intervene.
Therefore, although there are constant wars in the undead realm, most of them are limited to the level of the undead lord, and there are few higher-level undead creatures to intervene. Those who perform well in the war and successfully advance will also be prioritized by the Undead Lord to join the Guard, becoming its most important subordinate force.
In the last battle between Sazastan and the Undead King, the legendary lich suffered from the shortcomings of his men. Although his individual strength crushed the undead monarch and severely damaged his body, he was also tempered by the other party's hordes of Saint Rank men. After killing one batch after another, God knows how many Holy Order subordinates these undead kings have collected in the long reign of tens of thousands of years, in short, it is not a problem to grind a legendary lich to death.
In the end, if it weren't for Sazastan's many life-saving methods, and he would run away when he saw the opportunity, I am afraid that he, an old man who has been crisscrossing the Klein Continent for many years, would also be killed in the barren mountains and mountains of the undead realm. Even so, almost all of the personal servants he brought into the undead realm were all wiped out in that terrifying battle, and even the two legendary items he relied on to become famous were destroyed. If it weren't for the rare materials that Lux brought in time to repair them, I'm afraid he would have had to fight this battle shirtless, shirtless and in the cemetery.
After clearing the obstacles on the periphery of the "City of the Dead", the huge force on the side of the Undead Legion began to slowly but firmly extend along the wall of bones to the two wings, with the intention of besieging it. However, the two wings were only halfway spread before they came to an abrupt halt, and instead adjusted the direction of the troops, and the real siege battle began.
This also shows how serious the lack of the undead legion under the leadership of the legendary lich is in terms of the core backbone of the middle level.
If it is surrounded on all sides, the undead lords, who are already scarce in the undead legion, will be diluted in the long city defenses. Once the enemies in the city make any moves, even with the control of the legendary lich, they will not be able to take care of such a huge battlefield. Rather than waiting to be busy fighting fires, it is better to give up part of the battlefield now, concentrate the only cards in your hand, and form a local devastating blow to the capital of the undead.
After this period of observation and perception, Sazastan also discovered that although the enemy's power is equally huge, the high-level combat power that can match it seems to be extremely rare. At least compared to the strength of its appearance, it can't escape the awkward feeling of "big head and body".
Is the enemy a new force?
Sazastan couldn't help but mutter.
This idea was not proposed by Sazastan, but by Lux, who had the most dealings with his mysterious forces. Truth be told, in the past, he didn't give a damn about such midnight chatter.
How could a hidden force straddling the Council of the Dead and the Mage Guild be a newborn born that has just grown up, this perception is not at all in line with the limits of what the lich's calm, meticulous, evil mind can imagine. The Lich, who has always viewed the world with "conspiracy theories", does not hesitate to speculate on the world with the most vicious and evil ideas, where can there be such a bold and subversive outlandish idea.
But after really confronting this force, all kinds of doubts are always clouded in his heart.
Maybe it's a new type of undead force!
