Rod sighed and threw the letter on the table, then he looked up at the crowd in front of him.

Two days had passed since the end of the war, and after the total annihilation of the Black Dead's army, the undead army had retreated, at least on the surface, and it seemed that they were not in any attempt to attack again. However, Rhodes was not careless, and after the battle, he quickly interrogated Simon and obtained first-hand intelligence information about the undead army.

I have to say, Simon is really pitiful, as a necromancer, although he is not able to create a life box to make himself immortal like a lich, he does have some spare means of rebirth. In the Land of Night, no one knows when he will die, so as the leader of a family, it would be sad if he didn't even have the means to "turn back and come back".

But even if he killed Simon, he would never have imagined that Rhodes would have an ancient legendary-level artifact, which was still the equipment that Rhodes had obtained from the Demon Grand Duke before, relying on Marlene's red hand aura. As an ancient legendary-level artifact, the [Prison of the Soul] can designate a life to obtain the soul of the other party, although strictly speaking, the necromancer can no longer be regarded as alive, but more like a magical creature driven by soul power, but it has a soul after all, plus Simon himself was seriously injured at that time, and there was no way to resist the shackles of the [Soul Prison], so his soul was directly captured by Rhodes and then stuffed into the necklace.

The soul core is to the necromancer what the life box is to the lich, where they are rooted, and the necromancer is also different from the lich, the lich uses the power of magic to transform life and death, turning itself into a necromantic being. But most necromancers are undead creatures with a talent for spellcasting, and that's it. Their soul core is more important than the life box, and it can even be said that this is the necromancer's CPU, and whoever masters this is equivalent to mastering himself. So as long as the soul core is in Rod's hands, then Simon can only know everything about him, and he can't even try to lie to him...............

Although he was the patriarch of a medium-sized family, Simon had a very limited knowledge of the Dao. Still, Rhodes unearthed a lot of things from him.

First of all, the undead legion is menacing this time, led by [Fallen Angel] Shariye and [Soul Chaser] Barend, [Soul Chaser] Barend is responsible for the display of the Duchy of Moon, and [Fallen Angel] Shariye is responsible for the front of the Kingdom of Light. Frankly speaking, when he heard the news, Rod didn't feel strange at all, in fact, even if he didn't ask, Rod knew that Shaliye must be in charge of the Dao in the Land of Light. This is not just because of the player's foresight, but also because of Shaliye's own background.

Many people don't know, but Rhodes knows that Shaliye's identity is not just one of the four demon generals under the soul of the Night Dragon, he also has another identity ——— one of the top three archangels. Even frankly, Shaliye's tenure as the Seraph Chief was much longer than his time as one of the Four Demon Generals, and he was loyal to the Dragon of Radiance, and he made great contributions in the Creation War. Arguably. The fact that the Continent of Light was able to have such a vast land as it is now is largely thanks to the blessing of Shaliye.

But after the end of the battle. Everything has changed.

Concerned and dissatisfied with the Dragons of Light in handing over power to humans, Shaliyer thinks in a similar way to the Dragons of the Night, that humans are lost lambs who must have a shepherd to guide them and guide them forward, rather than leaving them to find their own way. Otherwise, they will fall into the mouths of the wolves and eventually become fatty meat.

Of course, Shaliye was not able to compete with the Radiant Dragon in the end, and his loyalty to the Radiant Dragon caused him to give up on his ideas. Still faithfully follow the side of the dragon of light. But as the Council of Light grew stronger, Shaliye began to grow angrier, sensing the ambitions of the human race and their presumptuous and offensive ideas, but he could do nothing but watch in silence——— no one noticed the anger burning beneath his calm exterior.

Eventually, with the fall of the Dragon's Soul of Light, the Council of Light truly took power, and on the day they built the Lighthouse of Freedom, Shaliye gave up his identity, threw away the Fury of Fire as proof of the Seraph, and left the Land of Light to join the Land of Night. Perhaps because of the deeper the love and the deeper the hate, since then, Shaliye has vowed to make the humans who dare to defile and rob the throne and status of the dragon of light pay their own price, and they will always exist as slaves of the immortal kingdom, subject to the greater rule of the power, in order to fulfill their wishes and revenge.

At that time, players had also gossiped about the reason why Shaliye made such an irrational move, most likely because he loved the dragon soul of light deeply, but as said before, the dragon soul inheritor is only a container after all, not to mention that in the fierce battle of the Creation War, it is difficult for each dragon soul inheritor to live for too long, let alone live forever, so in the end, the person he loves left him............ It is not impossible to turn to the enemy because of love and hatred, and thus to realize the ideal of saving the country by his own curve.

Sometimes Rhodes thinks he can understand Sullier, because after the destruction of Moon, he once wanted to join the Night Nation to take down the Land of Light, but he stopped thinking about it after discovering that the player could change all of this with his own strength. After all, on another level, the Night Nation is also his enemy.

Although in terms of combat power alone, Shaliye is the strongest of the four demon generals, Rhodes is not worried at all that he will attack Moon. Because from a certain point of view, Moon, who still adheres to the orthodoxy of the Dragon of Light, is considered an ally of Shariye on a certain level, and he has always had a good relationship with the archangel, and for Shariye, attacking the Land of Light is more attractive, so Rod does not think that Shaliye will be the first choice to attack Moon.

On the contrary, he was more afraid of the remaining three demon generals, whether it was "Soul Chaser" Barend, "Blood Countess" Esvill or "Master" Garcia, who were not easy to mess with, especially Garcia. He advanced to the "side of the gods" as a human being, and his experience was a hundred times more than that of the most YY novels, you must know that before this, he was not a special race, just an ordinary person born in a human slave family in the Night Dragon Country. And in fact, look at the entire Dragon Soul Continent. He is the only one who can advance to the side of the gods as a human, and no one else can do it either as a player or an NPC, which shows how powerful and terrifying he is. If given a choice, Rhodes would rather fight Barend the Soul Chaser for 300 rounds or fight Esvill the Countess of Blood than provoke a guy who seems to be legendary but is actually even more legendary.

In addition to the two main legions, most of the rest are the armies of the large and small gate lord aristocratic factions in the Night Country, which are aristocratic private soldiers in human terms, but for the undead, this is also a kind of regular army. And in fact, in the midst of this offensive. They're the main players.

After getting these news, Rod naturally sent it to Lydia immediately, this information is very important, and it has an immeasurable effect on assessing the battle situation, as for Simon, after digging up his poor information, Rod did not immediately kill this unlucky necromancer, but ordered it to write everything he knew in the dungeon and then deal with it——— poor this unlucky guy is probably copying in the dungeon with a handful of snot and tears at this time.

But it's not the small things that Rhodes needs to think about right now.

"What is the current state of the fortress?"

He asked.

Hearing Rod's inquiry, everyone looked at each other. Then Blanc looked up and yawned.

"All the best, Rod. We lost less than a hundred people in previous battles, and so far there have been no deserters............ Not bad, isn't it? ”

"The merchants were planning to leave for the time being, but the inhabitants of the area had given up on their plans to do so. I've consulted with them, and they've agreed to help us defend the fortress together, rather than leave here and move elsewhere. Only a few people whose families live in the surrounding area and Deep Rock intend to leave. ”

Marlene continued, and heard her answer. Rhodes raised a frown, this was not unexpected, these residents just had nowhere to go, and they had wanted to leave only because they were afraid that the fortress would be breached. Now the fortress not only blocked, but even completely annihilated the undead legion. Compared to the stalemate in other places, the Land of Atonement is safer, not to mention that many people who come to the Land of Atonement have nowhere to go, and they don't know where to go if they want to leave.

"What about our remaining supplies?"

Rod looked at Labis on the other side, and when he saw Rhodes looking at him, Labis couldn't help but shrink and subconsciously stood up nervously.

"That's, that'............ My lord, this ......... Constructing the Alchemy Golem......... Also, it will take some time to recover. As for magic arrows and other magic equipment, I calculated that if it was an army of the same level as before, it would not be a problem to support it for a week. If we have raw materials, my men and I can make some .........."

"The materials will be there, you can rest assured."

Rod nodded to Labis, then he turned to look at the others.

"This is just the beginning, I think you have already experienced this war, the Night Nation's attacks will become more and more ferocious, don't take our previous victory lightly, it is just because we prepared in advance and disrupted their plans. And when the undead are prepared, our battle will become more difficult. The next six months are the most dangerous period, and as long as we can survive these six months, then the final victory will be ours. ”

Hearing Rod's words, everyone looked at each other, and then, Lijie raised her hand with some confusion.

"Mr. Rhodes............... What is half a year? ”

"It's simple."

Hearing Lijie's inquiry, Rod glanced at her.

"Because this war is just a warm-up for the Night Dragon Country."

Then, he replied. (To be continued......)
