Chapter 0698: Undead Civil War 1

But now the cemetery can afford it. "Words * love * first * hair

Backed by 3 Atlas Planes and 7 Cemetery Cities, the overall strength of the Great Cemetery is growing slowly but firmly every day. Instead of raising yourself into a big fat man, it is better to wash yourself with the flames of war and cultivate a strong and elite cemetery army.

As long as Li Xun is here, even if he loses, the cemetery can still preserve the real core combat power at a critical time. As for those real products in the corners, they are all dispensable.

And on the side of the Council of the Dead, do they still have room to grow in strength?

Cut off from the back garden of the undead world, and then involved in their ambition to plot Novis, their total plate is so big, and the elite will lose as much as they knock out, and there will never be a replenishment of fresh blood. If the Necropolis continues to be consumed by such troops, even if the high-end strength of the Undead United Council is amazing, it will not be able to withstand the gradual withering of the undead servants under him.

Stripped of the tens of thousands of undead creatures that have grown into mountains and seas, the legendary lich has lost its foothold on the Klein continent, and returning to the underground is their only option. At that time, it may be the best time for the cemetery to capture them.

After deducing the battle situation, several cemetery executives agreed that if there were 2 legendary lichs in the Battle of Kurogi Lake, it would still be a war of the undead of medium intensity. If there are 3 Legendary Lichs, it means that they have abandoned the battlefield of Novis. The appearance of 4 digits means that they have completely given up even the undead realm, and the war will inevitably escalate to a high intensity.

As for the appearance of 5, it indicates that the two sides have entered a situation of non-stop.

However, according to the current intelligence analysis, the cemetery is still mainly prepared for a medium-intensity undead war. Premature exposure of the Necropolis's war potential is not suitable for taking root in the Crane Plane in the later stages. If the Necropolis is too strong and crushes the Council of the Undead, Li Xun dares to use his reputation to pack a ticket, and the second war alliance to destroy the undead will appear in the shortest possible time.

Therefore, what the Battle of Kuroki Lake needed was to contain the war potential of the other side, so as to prevent the Undead United Council from gaining a strategic development point like the Duchy of Novis. Therefore, the Necropolis's demand for the United Council of the Dead is to defeat it. The other party was taught a solid lesson, but he still retained a huge force that was enough to deter the surrounding area.

Specifically, it is to cut the opponent's offensive ability, but still let it retain the power to protect itself.

This was the real strategic intent of the Necropolis in agreeing to the decisive battle of Lake Kurogi.

……

Time passed in Li Xun's hustle and bustle.

As the two legions draw closer, this undead civil war between the United Council of the Dead and the Necropolis could break out at any moment.

When the time hand finally points to May 11, 1222 in the Klein calendar, the Civil War of the Dead finally begins.

Under the gaze of thousands of filthy and ugly undead, the belated cemetery expeditionary force slowly poured into the battlefield of Kurogi Lake.

The most striking thing about the cemetery is undoubtedly the thick fog of war that stretches for nearly 10 miles. When the entire cemetery expeditionary force came to the side of the battlefield, the core area of the huge marching army column was still tightly covered, so that outsiders could not see the slightest.

As for the basic combat units clustered around the fog of war, they are mainly lickers, and there are almost no zombie skeletons, while the outer battle circle wanders and sweeps the enemy's ears and eyes is a pure team of undead knights.

Using high-level undead knights to sweep the roads is an extravagant way to use troops that can only be done in the Necropolis. On the other hand, on the side of the Council of the Undead, more than 700 undead knights were entrenched on the right side of Kuroki Lake, forming a formation of four or five charges, obviously being used as a main force.

The dark and deep fog of war, which could not be seen through by the power of magic, stopped seven miles in front of Lake Kurogi. The accompanying 30,000 lickers lined up in front of the black fog in an orderly manner, forming more than ten square arrays, each with a marching passage more than ten meters wide between each array.

The Undead Knights, who were originally roaming around the periphery, also gradually began to recover, gathering on the two wings and rear columns of the Licker Phalanx, and there were more than 400 in the preliminary number.

"The enemy also looks like they've got some undead knights hidden in the mist, which doesn't match the number they had when they first appeared!" The Lich Empress Valakis sits precariously on her throne of the dead, peering through the magic water mirror at the movement on the other side.

Her position at the moment was on a small hill three miles behind Lake Kurogi, on which a magical tent of great luxury and beauty had been erected. The Lich Empress and another legendary Lich were sitting next to each other across a small wooden table, gazing at a qiē in the magic water mirror.

Hearing the Lich Queen's implicit sarcasm, another legendary lich finally spoke.

"The fog in front of me is very strange, it can actually block the detection of magic perception and the penetration of spiritual power, and it can also isolate the prophecy spell, and there is a faint smell of confusion. It shouldn't be easy to make something like this. But what makes me even more strange is how they let the fog move with them? ”

It was a big fat man with a bloated and fat body who spoke.

Compared to the shriveled Lich Queen, who can't scrape out the flesh of her whole body, the Lord of Rot, Owo, who is uncharacteristically human-like, has real flesh and blood like a human. However, the blue-black skin was covered with pus, and from time to time there were bumps and undulations, as if there were countless terrible demons lurking under the skin of that kind of person.

At its side, even if you don't have to listen closely, you can feel bursts of soul screams that make people's hearts throb.

The ornate and exquisite magic robes could not hide its bloated and ugly body, and the beautiful magic crown was worn on its head, more like it was embedded in a ball of flesh, and a circle of sharp bone spurs pierced deep into the skull, making people shudder.

But what Ovo wondered about was exactly what Valakis feared.

The big war was imminent, and they couldn't even find out the arrangement on the opposite side. The other party can helpless the two legendary lichs with a casual magical fog, which can't help but be extremely discouraged.

This far-flung army of necropolises had hidden all the core in the mist, and one wondered if there was some strange arrangement inside. But even if the 10-mile magical fog was densely packed with undead, it wouldn't shake the Legendary Lich's determination to hunt them all down.

The Lich Empress pointed to the Magic Water Mirror once more, and the scene inside changed to that of a pale human nobleman's head.

"Hovis, today's battle is in your command! You're going to have to take a good look and leave me all these damn outsiders! The Lich Empress's cold, unforgiving shrill voice sounded.

"Yes, my lord. The Vampires won't let you down! "This vampire prince Hovis, who was formerly a nobleman of a certain continental principality, is the only guy in the entire Council of the Dead who knows a little bit of tactics, and in the face of an undead civil war of this scale, the two legendary lichs can only hand over the power of command.

Although the legendary lich is all terrifying creatures with superior intelligence, knowledge, and cunning, all their wisdom and energy are invested in the vast magic skills and spells, leaving no room for the "mortal skill" of arranging troops and commanding large armies to fight.

Therefore, their combat command is stuck in a rush, and they are in the early stage of drowning the opponent with a sea of soldiers and spells, and they cannot reasonably arrange the attack level and attack intensity, let alone the set of combat strategies such as the combination of troops and the cover of the legion.

Such a crude art of command suffered greatly in the first war of the dead. As a last resort, the legendary lich had no choice but to admit their shortcomings and began to try to cultivate special individuals who were proficient in military affairs among the undead under their command. And the vampire prince Hovis at level 18 is such a typical example.

Hovis, a level 18 vampire prince, was also a nobleman in a small principality on the continent before he was transformed into an undead. At that time, his most prominent war experience was only commanding one or two hundred noble private soldiers to exterminate some bandits in the territory. But now after becoming a member of the Council of the Undead, this insignificant achievement has become his superior "great achievement", directly crossing the ghost dragon Mu Hete and the resentful banshee Livre, becoming the first person in the military.

After receiving the magic message from the legendary lich, Hovis on the front line of the war turned on his horse and let himself stand tall in the midst of the thousands of undead armies, his scarlet eyes slowly swept over the black and dense sea of soldiers in front of him, and then he gave the order complacently.

An entire tide of nearly 50,000 black crushed corpses began to surge forward, aiming directly at the phalanx of lickers lined up outside the fog on the side of the cemetery.

These 50,000 corpses are all carefully selected zombies, among which the proportion of zombie warriors and zombie warriors is not low, and you can even see many zombie lords. And in the middle of their queue, nearly a hundred stitching monsters were slowly moving forward, step by step.

These 8-meter-old suture monsters are much taller than the cemetery's abomination, and their bodies are even more bloated and ugly, covered with all kinds of pustules and rotten sores. Dense skewed sutures criss-cross the surface, occupying nearly half of the body's surface, while the other half is covered by a series of fleshy bulges and humanoid limbs.

The necromancers equip them with weapons of the simplest and roughest of stone and iron rods, with cratered tops. Every time you swing it in the stitcher's hand, it leaves a lot of dirt and rust behind.

On the two wings of the corpse tide, there were nearly 20,000 skeleton warriors forming more than a dozen attack formations, marching in unison towards the fog of war. It can be seen that the commander of the United Council of the Dead has a lot of resentment against this fog of war, and he actually invested such a huge amount of troops in the first attack, and he has a posture of wanting to rush into the fog.

With the 50,000 corpses on the front staring at the 30,000 cemetery lickers, the opponent would not be able to use enough troops to block the advance of the skeleton army. Maybe in half an hour, all the battles will be fought under the fog of war.

At that time, the mystery of the other party will be completely revealed!
