For Collund, the attack felt a bit of a comic twist, as he was pressed down by a menacing army, only to be disgraced and withdrawn. He guessed the beginning, but not the end. This can be said to be the best annotation of the tiger and the snake's tail, if it is a human army, I am afraid that the morale has already plummeted at this time, maybe just to appease the soldiers will cause the commander to die and injure countless brain cells. But as Rhodes said, the undead army does not have the indicator of morale, they have no fear, no depression and other negative emotions, and naturally they will not be affected in any way——— because they themselves are the embodiment of despair.

Although this battle seemed a bit disgraced to Collund, even the other undead generals who did not deal with him would definitely not be so stupid as to ridicule him for making a wrong choice. The appearance of ancient relics can be said to be a state of affairs that no one expected. It was almost a force from the root of the law, and it was impossible for ten Collunds to confront each other here. Especially when they raised their heads and looked at the golden magic circle that enveloped everything under the sky of the Dragon Soul of Light in the distance, they could only remain silent. In any case, it is also a force from the primordial law, and regardless of the position, all things in the mortal world must have respect before such a force.

But respect is not an excuse for defeat.

Collund sat at the table, silently looking at the sand table in front of him, the pitch-black chess pieces had been removed, far away from the target's location, it stretched out its thin right hand, moved the banner representing the army of death forward, and then reached out and waved, and soon saw that some of the black banners had completely fallen, but the lich did not stop because of this, it continued to push the flag, and then repeated again. Every time you repeat. The soul fire in Colund's eyes was even brighter. Eventually, a grim smile appeared on its face.

He had to admit that the young human lord did have some skills, and he did not launch the holy spear in the first place, but deliberately lured the undead army forward, and then activated these ancient relics when they came to the city. Dealt a heavy blow to its own troops. Moreover, he is also well aware of the weakness of the Holy Spear that needs to accumulate energy, so he chose to fire at intervals, however, all the weaknesses are hidden in the strengths, and on the surface, the ancient relic is indeed a big threat. But if you think about it, you will see the problem......... Why would the human lord choose to activate the Ancient Relic at this time?

"Why should I fire the Spear of Holiness at this time?"

Rhodes descended the gloomy staircase, the gloomy firelight flickering in the tunnel. The entanglement of shadows and light on Rhodes' face formed a distorted and gloomy picture. But Rhodes apparently ignored this, and he stared ahead without looking back at Lijie's inquiry.

"Yes, Mr. Rhodes, the Spear of Holiness is our most powerful trump card, and now the undead have retreated, but to be honest, we didn't do much damage to them. After a rough calculation when cleaning the battlefield just now. We only wiped out nearly 10,000 undead creatures on the other side. If it is true that you say so, Mr. Rhodes, the other party's strength is far more than that. Wouldn't it be too much to fire the Holy Spear so soon......... Reckless? ”

"That's true, but we can't help it."

Hearing Lijie's inquiry, Rod shrugged his shoulders.

"We don't have enough mages in our hands to deal with the attack, and we're currently in the fortress, if not counting the bubbles and canaries. Then Serena and Marlene's spell-casting prowess is second to none. But what about them? It's just the level of a Central mage, such a spellcaster grabs a lot of the undead legion, and with the strength of Marlene and Serena, there is no way to be able to carry out a wide range of kills in such a battle. ”

"And Bubbles and I need to be prepared for an attack by the Dark Wurm that could come at any time, until then. We can't just expend the amount of force. ”

Then, the canary, who was walking on the other side, smiled and took Rod's words.

"Actually, defending a city is a very boring thing, especially in such a situation, we can't play too many tactics like two armies fighting. The other party is not human, and the will of the undead is as hard as steel, and ordinary stratagems do not work against them at all. In this way, we can only fight hard, but if we do hard, we are honestly not opponents of the other side. Lijie, you should also be aware that in the case that Bubbles and I don't make a move, and Rhodes doesn't activate the Holy Spear, just the vanguard of the other side is enough to make you overwhelmed. ”

“………………………”

Hearing this, Lijie and Marlene fell silent, the reality is that they are too few people, too few. In fact, most of the time the soldiers did not play a big role in these two sieges, and they relied more on the powerful trump cards that Rhodes turned up to solve the battle. The last time the war ended was by relying on the heart of Blan, and the trio of Canary and Little Bubblegum worked together. This time, the repulsion of the undead legion relied on the peak spell of the law of the Holy Maiden Statue. The rest of them were more like extra visitors on the city walls, taking a look at the situation, and then whipping up soy sauce and sweeping up some of the remaining undead, but that was about it.

"There's no way around it, who called those soldiers too weak."

Tiny bubblegum doesn't care about what other people think, and says whatever they want.

"If you were in ............... before What's that, put those bones on the city wall and go up the city wall, it hasn't been driven back by us yet, but there are too few soldiers here. If we really want to put them up, then we don't know if this wall is our fortress or theirs, so the regimental commander has gone to great lengths to maintain the battle line outside the city wall. You should be glad that you are a soy sauce fighter, in case you become the main force of the battle, then it means that the commander's fortress is going to be completely finished. As far as we are concerned, how can we compare with the undead army? They were all buried. ”

“……………………”

Marlene frowned, she wasn't angry at Little Bubblegum's words, and that's exactly what happened. There were too few of them, and perhaps there were the Angel Legion and the Wizard Fleet, but Rhodes had already told them that the hole cards were to be opened one by one. Casting all your hole cards at once won't scare the enemy away. But...............

"But then our weaknesses are exposed in the eyes of the enemy. Generally speaking, whether it is a siege or a defense, a wide range of spell attacks are essential. However, instead of unleashing a wide range of offensive spells, we directly activated the Holy Spear, which is tantamount to telling the enemy that we are seriously undercasting..............."

Said here. Marlene clenched her fists and felt a cold sweat oozing from them.

"But............... The enemy should have investigated, and if they had a record of the previous war, they should know that there were two legendary peak spellcasters in our stronghold. ”

"But Bubbles and I didn't make a move."

The canary shook her head slightly, a hint of playfulness flashing in her smiling eyes.

"For what?"

"This ....................."

Hearing the canary's inquiry, Marlene and Lijie couldn't help but ponder. By this time, everyone had already walked down the stairs to the depths of the dark and gloomy dungeon, and some of the prisoners' disgruntled roars and wails could be heard in the distance, but at this moment the two of them did not react to this. Instead, they were racking their brains to think about the canary's question. Then, Marlene's eyes lit up.

"Could it be that it has something to do with those water elemental creatures summoned by Rhodes?"

"That's right."

Hearing Marlene's answer, Rhodes nodded in satisfaction.

"In the previous battle, I didn't expand the passage of the Silver Sea, this is the first time I have expanded the passage and summoned water elemental creatures to participate in the battle. And all of Collund's scouts were wiped out by me. There's no way they know that I have the key to the illusion of the Silver Sea. Then, they have to seek an explanation. That is, why did so many water elemental creatures suddenly appear? ”

Saying this, Rod glanced at Marlene.

"Marlene, as a mage, you should be well aware of how troublesome and time-consuming it is to expand the Illusion Passage."

"Of course, Rod."

Hear Rhodes' inquiry. Marlene nodded without hesitation. Each caster is educated about the four elemental planes, the Seven Illusions, Hell and Purgatory, and the main material plane as they learn magic. Naturally, she knew something about it.

"Then it seems to you that I have suddenly summoned so many water elemental creatures, and the legendary mage in the previous report did not fight. From your perspective as a mage, what conclusions would you draw? ”

"I'll ....................."

Saying this, a little understanding suddenly flashed on Marlene's face.

"I'd think that legendary mage used his power to support the Illusion Channel! Opening the Illusion Passage in such a short period of time and summoning such a high-level water elemental creature would never be possible for ordinary people. And Miss Canary didn't show up, which means that it is very likely that she is supporting the development of the Illusion Channel! And that way, there are currently no more casters in the Stronghold that threaten them! Because it takes a lot of soul power to maintain the Illusion Channel, if the prediction is correct, even if Miss Canary withdraws to join the battle, it will not bring much help. ”

"Summing up the elements that we have presented to him so far, then the conclusion is simple."

As he spoke, Rod shrugged his shoulders.

And then, all we have to do is let it confirm that its judgment is correct again and again. As I said earlier, Collund is a cautious person, and it will not believe the information we give it so easily, but as long as we try to make it confirm itself again and again. Then it will accept its own judgment. And the cautious Dafan is very conceited, and once he is convinced of his own judgment, then we are not far from complete victory. ”

"But, but, Mr. Rhodes."

Li Jie frowned, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.

"What if the lich doesn't think so? What if it suspects that we have a more powerful trump card that is why we use the Holy Spear so recklessly? ”

"That's the purpose of war, Lijie."

At this time, Qilian, who had been beside her without speaking, laughed, and she rushed to Lijie's side, stretching out her finger and poking her cheek.

"Didn't the master make it clear before? These undead don't come here to defend their country or to destroy evil. They are here to make a difference, to expand their power and to elevate their family's status in the Night Realm. Do you think it's possible for that lich to wait here for a year and a half, waiting for his colleagues and even his subordinates to be promoted to his superiors, only to get nothing? If it really has this patience, of course, the owner is not welcome, but I wonder if the other undead creatures who are eyeing it will be willing............... As for the trump card............ Whew, the owner doesn't let it see, how can it know? Delusions are always delusions until they become reality, and we just don't let it see the reality in its eyes. ”

"Seven Love's words are right, but Lijie's words also make sense. After all, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and not every situation will turn out to be what we want. ”

At this point, Rhodes stopped, and in front of him was a tightly sealed prison door made of iron and heavy wood.

"And now, I'm here to rule out one of the unknown factors, X."

As he spoke, Rod stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the cage. (To be continued......)
