Chapter 176 Convening a meeting
"Handsome boy, why are you here again?" Bi Qi was taking care of the poisonous fly eggs when she turned around and found Louis. "Bring me some firewood, yes, that's the pile."
Louis held his nose with one hand to add fuel to the fire. He and Bi Qi were in a shed filled with corpses of undead creatures. The shed continued to boil water to maintain humidity and heat so that the fly eggs could hatch smoothly, at the expense of the highly decomposed corpses.
There was a strong stench. "Gone."
"Where to go?"
"The marshal summons the group leaders, and you should come with him."
Bi Qi became coy: "Should I take a shower first?"
"You also know you're stinky?! Come on, follow me!"
"Wait a minute, let me put on some perfume!"
This was the first time for Louis to attend such a meeting. The meeting took place in the camp. When they arrived, they found that the other regiment commanders were there. The one wearing glasses and holding a book and looking through it as if no one was around was Li Erli, the commander of the first regiment.
Germany; Standing in front of the tactical map and looking at it without even looking at Louis or Louis, is the only female regiment leader, Zoe, the leader of the second regiment. She is neat and capable in military uniform and has a heroic appearance; she and Louis once had a relationship.
The person standing there was the leader of the third regiment, Luo Ang, who nodded as a greeting; the one who looked at Bi Qi with a squinting look was the leader of the fourth regiment, Rodel.
The marshal hadn't come yet, so the two found a seat and sat down. At this time, Zoe, who was still looking at the map, suddenly said: "Why is the Necromancer also coming to the meeting?"
Bi Qi pointed to her nose and asked Louis: "Should I not come?"
Louis pressed her hand down and said loudly: "I was asked to bring her here by the superior military order."
At this time, someone happened to enter the tent. After hearing this, he clapped his hands and said with a smile: "I issued the military order. Miss Zoe, do you have any objections?"
Louis looked subconsciously and was surprised, because the person who came in was not wearing a military uniform, but was wearing a black mage robe of the same style as Biqi. He was clearly a necromancer, but he didn't need to wear demon-sealing shackles! What surprised him even more was that
, Zoe snorted and didn’t reply, obviously acquiescing to the visitor’s approach!
Since when did necromancers have such a high status in the military?
The visitor unbuttoned the mage's robe and hung it on the coat rack. He was wearing a woolen vest and a white shirt. With his plain face in his twenties, at first glance, he looked like an ordinary rich man. You would never think of him.
It was the Necromancer. He walked up to Louis and stretched out his hand: "Hello, Louis, this should be the first time we meet. My name is Victor von Doom."
Bi Qi took an exaggerated breath: "You, no, no, you are a member of the Doom family?"
"Yes, it's nice to meet you, Miss Bi Qi." Victor turned to shake hands with Bi Qi. "If it weren't for the filthy poisonous flies, talents like you would have been buried. If you have free time, you must allow me to go
Learn your nurturing skills.”
"Definitely, definitely! I will study!" Bi Qi was speechless.
When Victor walked away, Louis asked in a low voice: "The Doom family? Are they famous?"
"Not your nobles of Astante, but the families of the Dark Church!"
In the early years, the Dark Church was a loose organization, and its members did their own thing. It was four strong men who gathered their own people to form a family, and then the Dark Church was run. This is the origin of the four major deacons. The relationship between the families is complicated.
Maybe they were still fighting in the first half of the year, but they were cooperating in the second half. Their ideas greatly influenced the Dark Church.
(For example, the Gregory family and the Goodson family both wanted to capture the Bone Tyrant, so the church took a hostile attitude towards the Twilight Empire). However, the position of the Archdeacon is not firmly held by the family, not so much that only the patriarch can hold it.
Archdeacon, or rather, only archdeacons are qualified to establish a family.
The mistake made by the Gregory family caused them to lose an heir, and the loss was kept to a minimum. However, the decision-making of the Goodson family caused a huge blow to the Dark Church. The patriarch voluntarily resigned as the Archdeacon and handed over the wings he had cultivated for many years (all were
Sent to the Astante army as an "advisor") in exchange for preserving the backbone. But this is not enough. The other families are beasts that eat people without spitting out bones. They can't wait to carve up the Goodson family. It's best to
Don't even keep the last name Goodson.
"Because my teacher is a vassal of the Goodson family, I am considered one of them and was sent to the army. In theory, there is no need for the Doom family to send members, especially this one... in his name
Bringing 'Feng' means that he is a direct descendant of the Doom family. Judging from his age, he is likely to be the heir!"
"Beauty! What's the point of being such a sissy? Do you want to taste what it's like to be a real man?" While the two were whispering, Rodel, the leader of the fourth regiment, came over with a lewd smile on his face.
Bi Qi was not angry, but was pleasantly surprised: "Beauty? Me?"
Louis rolled his eyes and cursed: "Get out of here, Rodel."
"What are you doing? He praised me as a beauty."
"What the hell do you know, silly woman?! Don't have anything to do with him."
Rodel patted Louis on the shoulder hard: "Man, what you said makes me sad. I am obviously on the same side with you. How about you transfer her to me? I have played with all kinds of women in my life.
, I just have never played a female mage.”
"Who the hell is with you?" Louis pushed away the other person's thick, hairy hands.
The first three regiment commanders were all students of the Guardian Heroes. Louis was not the only one who could stand on an equal footing with them, but also the newly promoted commander of the fourth regiment, Rodel. Rodel was a middle-aged fat man with an unattractive appearance and vulgar behavior. Compared with him,
Bi, Louis can be called a noble son. He is a murderer, his family is poor, he is lazy and has no legitimate livelihood, and he has been committing petty theft. When the empire invaded at dusk, he took advantage of the chaos to rob and kill. He committed many crimes and was hanged.
The day before the fight, the new marshal announced that all the prisoners would be transferred into the army to form a fourth regiment. By chance, he survived and continued to climb up the ranks with his military merit, becoming the regiment leader.
Rodel chuckled and said, "Isn't my little brother very grumpy?"
Louis' face twitched: "I'm already so damn polite."
Not far away, Victor was flipping through some information, looking up from time to time to look at Louis and Bi Qi. Louis, the leader of the fifth regiment, was the most junior here and the youngest at the same time.
"Bad Mouth" Louis: Level 50, human (Astant). Because he wanted to protect his older brother who joined the army, he joined the army regardless of his parents' obstruction, and accidentally got promoted faster than his older brother. He used a lot of curse words.
Yes, he is not likeable. The reason why he has not been stabbed to death by soldiers is because he is really good at commanding. He was originally bad-tempered, but after his brother died in the battle, he became even more aggressive and began to contradict his superiors. He has excellent battlefield luck and has an attrition rate under his command.
He has always been the lowest in the army, which attracted the attention of the marshal and was promoted. His good skills are [rational vision]
], [Life-killing Arrow Rain], [Group Rush]. When participating in the battle, for every friendly unit and unit led by the unit killed, the morale value of the unit led will be +1, and for every 1 point of morale value exceeded, the attack power of the unit led by the unit will be increased by 1%.
(Capped at 25%).
Dirty Miss Biqi: Level 55, human. Because she was forced by her stepmother to do housework every day when she was a child, she really, really, really hates doing housework. In order to find a way to kill her stepmother, she became a necromancer apprentice, but found that she had to become a servant
To start, he killed his teacher before killing his stepmother. After occupying the teacher's laboratory, he tried to teach himself, but he had no talent in necromancy and was sent to the army by the Dark Church. As a result, he became very successful. He was different from his appearance.
, has an unknown girlish heart, and will stick portraits of idols on the bedside. She has no resistance to handsome men. Her good skills include [Paralysis], [Mutation Hatching], and [Filthy Ball]. She will not be poisoned by filth.
Attacks by flies and their variants.
"Interesting, this is the first time I saw a guardian spirit. Even if everyone here dies in battle, Louis will still survive to the end." Victor said to himself.
He is the only necromancer in the Astante army who does not need to wear the magic shackles. The reason why he was freed was because he took the initiative to cooperate with the military. He considered this an opportunity. The Dark Church is no longer possible
No matter how you hide in the shadows, you are not qualified to stand in the sun. If you don't make changes, will Gospel Continent tolerate the continued existence of the dark church? It would be too naive to think that you can protect yourself by simply handing over hostages.
In the final analysis, the Doom family's course of action is the same as that of the previous two families. They all benefit from the confrontation with the undead creatures. The difference is that Victor's vision is different from those vulgar people. Even if he captures the undead king,
What can you do if you come to be a slave? Can you fight against Big Bow? Can you fight against the Holy See? What the Dark Church lacks is a reputation for orthodoxy. If it can stand on the side of justice, reduce the hostility of various countries, legitimately replenish new blood and then grow stronger, then that is the right path. World
The Twilight Empire has already taken on the responsibility of public enemy, and there is no need for the Dark Church to rush to cause trouble.
Just when Louis and Rodel were about to fight and no one else was trying to stop them, the tent door opened and the orderer shouted: "The marshal is here!"
A marshal wearing a military coat walked in.
He had messy gray hair, deep bags under his eyes, a stubble, and a ring pendant on his chest. As he walked, he said: "Rodel, get back to your position, and don't fight with your peers in front of my eyes."
Rodel immediately stood at attention and gave a military salute, his fat body trembling: "Yes, Marshal!"
Lear Reed put away the book, Zoe left the map, and Roan took the initiative to take off the marshal's coat. He saw that the marshal's arms shrank, as if they were skin and bones, without any muscle. It was too miserable to look at.
Victor pulled out a chair for the marshal and said softly: "Everyone is here."
"Then let's get started. Everyone, take your seats."
Bi Qi, who was pinned down on the chair by Louis, said stupidly: "Isn't he a handsome guy? Why is it different from what I heard?"
"Elegant" Oliver Queen, the most outstanding student of the elegant Lancelot, was originally anonymous, but was personally invited back by the king to be the marshal. Of course, he is senior and able to convince everyone (after all, all the students of the hero are
His eyes are higher than his head, and he refuses to obey anyone.) Secondly, he is surprisingly immune to resistance from the former military headquarters.
