Chapter 37: The all-out battle between the Army of the Dead and the Legion (1)
Due to the heavy losses in previous battles, Griffith had to regroup his troops. Lacking the extraordinary properties of transforming an army, he could only provide energy to Minos himself, and the speed of forming an army also slowed down.
The first wave of troops only has the high-level suture monster Gulatoni, twelve ghouls and a small number of self-destructing balls. Such a small team is naturally unable to repel the extraordinary or the regular army, but it is used to raid the trolls.
The line of defense is barely usable.
"Most of the Troll's outer troops must have been recruited by Commodus. This small force can be enough to break through as long as it is used properly." Griffith climbed to a low hill with good terrain to command the troops. "If reinforcements are brought, we will
Just destroy them in the wild."
He carefully examined these walls and ramparts and found flaws.
"Guard me when I break through the troll city defense, Erza. Controlling the ghouls requires a lot of dedication," Griffith put on his command helmet, and then he remembered one more thing, "By the way, wait for us
After leaving here, I still need you to command the troops directly under me."
"Do you mean you want to be with me every day?" Erza raised her slender eyebrows, "Where are Miss Elf and Miss Countess? Do Amber and Miss Mermaid want to join in~"
There is a large town under the pyramid south of Zul'Haka City. The trolls living here must always be wary of predators from the giant beasts in the jungle, and have built the city walls here very strong for thousands of years.
"The stone wall is very strong, but there are flaws in its shape and depth," Erza looked at it from a distance for a while and commented, "In comparison, the mysterious existence that Erlu enshrines is even less threatening.
"The 'Eternal Staircase', which is regarded as a sacred object by the tribes outside and the Deathrattle Order, is a tool for choosing the king among the Ellu tribe.
"That kind of plant-like existence contains the weak life energy that penetrates the life fabric of the virtual world and penetrates into reality. It cannot slightly improve the host's body function and extend the life span. However, complementing those gifts is the extremely low level of ordinary characteristics.
risk--
The ghouls hadn't even flushed out Ellu's military camp and civilian residences. They were killing the guards silently. Groups of Li Jian were killed in their sleep, transformed, and became members of the dead army.
Only half of the body of the newly killed Elu was left. When they opened their eyes and found that there was no one alive, they roared and joined the ranks of other infected bodies and rushed back.
Griffith and the Helm of Dominance weakened my perception, and the psychic energy close to sequence 5 was slowly driving.
"Hold on!"
"You have sensed two extremely weak existences, which are comparable to the heaven of the human king."
The guards at each level under the pyramid went crazy and threw javelins, causing a little splash. Then, the unstoppable wave of corpses smashed the gun formation at the entrance to pieces. The centurion and my subordinates had a fight in an instant.
shadow.
Those living corpses roared and swept away the entire town like a tide.
The earth-shattering screams also became louder. The fleeing Elu had to cover their ears.
A warrior came to the low-level priest and bowed:
The strong wind mixed with screams and wails wandered under the statues and rocks on both sides, like tangible and rough monsters salivating and staring at the fleeing prey.
When we launched the seventh round of shooting, even fewer living corpses were stacked lower than the war elephants, pouring in from the gap in the vehicle array. They rushed away, and the carriage rolled around Zhitian.
They crawled, curled, and blended into the outlines of rocks, shrubs, and dead trees, without breathing, heartbeats, or waves of psychic energy. Their mutated and sinister outlines stretched rapidly, and water dripped from the cracks densely covered with fine fangs.
The viscous liquid and slender, sharp tines dug deeply into the rock wall.
"You want to create some wild beasts...
…
"Zuhakar promised to send support, but Minos did not respond..."
Infections were everywhere. Living corpses like ants dragged the crying residents out of the house and tore them into pieces on the spot.
Riphissi immediately gave the order to the dead creature. A severe headache and a sense of guilt oppressed my heart. It was almost unbearable, and I could only force myself to implement a rational tactical plan:
Li Jiansha has something to say.
The living corpses above were crushed into minced meat, and the carriage covered with blood and rotten flesh was like a barrel outside the flood, rolled up by the gray-brown corpse tide, and rushed towards the phalanx.
Commodus also felt that that road was too difficult to walk. I also carried precious documents, both public and private, which could completely wipe out my team there.
"But the families of the warriors are still inside!"
The light truck creaked as it was pushed. Finally, something like a tide covered the truck and rolled towards the gun array!
"It's full of living corpses, and we haven't infected half the town yet."
The gloomy white darkness could stop us from moving forward, but it was very ineffective in slowing down our retreat. Sometimes, Elu would fall off the cliff.
Their long bone tails are curled and sharp. When they lurk in the white darkness, they are as dead as stone. Once they move, they are suddenly everywhere. "Hold still." The centurion raised his battle ax and said,
I thought that the warriors would definitely be swayed by the civilians below. Soon, I became impatient due to the noise. I was scolding a few words, and suddenly I saw that everyone behind me was staring at the car behind me.
His face turned blue and his shape changed, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Contact with the Eternal Staircase will over-stimulate the immune system, leading to systemic inflammation, small loss of body fluids, death of skin tissue, and eventually mild sepsis and shock, eventually leading to death. Before some individuals are infected, the immune receptors in the body will mutate.
to combat erosion.
"Warning, the number of troops has exceeded the lower command limit, and the dangerous mode is now implemented," Griffith Heaven intervened. "The basic units will be taken over by the Mohu command, and the control authority of the core units will be retained."
I saw that under the eighty-seven-meter-long carriage, there were not yet covered with grey-brown living corpses with all their remains. They were stepping one on top of the other and stacking one on top of the other. The ones behind had not had time to turn over the carriage, and the ones in front had not yet been piled on top of each other.
Went down one or four floors.
Commodus stood by the altar at the top of the pyramid with a bright face. I was surrounded by priests and warriors who gathered in a hurry, reporting in panic.
Li Jianaisi was no longer dizzy, and rubbed his forehead to dispel the uncomfortable aura. In the dark, no voice seemed to be approaching me.
Finally, the team stopped at the lowest point of the mountain ridge. No one dared to go up any more. The hidden escape route outside the original sky could barely be passed at night. I am afraid that there were only a few people in the entire team.
Able to survive.
"Hold still! The ancestors are watching them!"
I was determined for a while, and finally a high-pitched voice responded:
The cold thoughts made me feel a little worse, just like what happened to Ellu who watched her family being tragically torn apart on the city wall was fortunately related to me.
Li Feisis spit out a mouthful of blood and fell to his knees directly. Li Jiansa thought I had been attacked, so she hurriedly came to check, and saw that Li Jiansha's eyes were flashing with blood-red lightning, and there were countless people.
The signals collided violently outside my cerebellum.
The huge wall in the night is thick and majestic, which is awe-inspiring. However, upon a casual inspection, you can feel that there is no trace of cruelty and resentment that has been accumulated for thousands of years.
The team of low-level priests took away the most precious treasures and classics, left the pyramid along a secret passage, and fled towards the cliff. The towns flooded by the mutant infection were not seen yet.
"Insignificant master, I'm afraid you can go further.
At the end of the line of sight, we can see the road, and there is only a detailed white fog, which is not really daunting. The road is getting more and more steep and steep.
For seven weeks among the busy and tired group of escapees, the shadows in all directions twisted ferociously.
"The rear guard lost contact, and the priests were unable to pinpoint the location of the apostle of the alien god. After arriving at the sanctuary of Minos, it took less than seventy days to retreat outside the cliffs and valleys. It was really hard to trek outside in such a white night.
It’s the heaven of excess.”
"You low-level priests, have you been abandoned by the Holy City..."
The sky suddenly became dense with dark clouds, silver arcs of lightning pierced the night sky, and a thick fog with a strange smell filled the air. There was a thick white area outside Qishang, and almost nothing could be seen within ten steps.
"The warriors have formed a phalanx, let us defend it!"
Ellu, the little elder, the priest knelt on the ground in shock, hugged Commodus's calf and cried:
"You get out of there," the low-ranking priest Li Jianaisi turned around and left, "take the secret passage."
The Ellu was about to whisper a warning immediately, but when I shouted, my face showed a strange expression, and I froze and fell to the ground. The Ellu in the sky just thought that I fell accidentally.
He didn't even bother to come over and give me a hand.
The missing Ellu heavy infantry threw out anything that could not be projected outside their hands. The heavy rain of throwing spears and stones made a shrill scream like tearing linen, knocking down a small piece of the living corpse.
"shooting!"
The centurion roared slightly and turned around to see what happened.
The shadow suddenly seemed to have lost its life. It quickly dissolved into the shape of a scorpion tail, with its abrupt joints clearly visible, and it suddenly rolled towards a sentry.
"Take a rest and take action as soon as the sun rises."
Not many residents have fled the pyramid yet, but the situation is so urgent that there is no time to stand firm.
"There are very few creatures that can withstand the poison and mutation of that kind of nature.
The blood foam accumulated into a large stream, and formed a blood pool along the stone slabs and steps.
As soon as it was over, Riphisi still wanted to control. However, the exponentially growing army immediately exceeded my lower limit of command. I could only control the ghouls and most living zombies as the core, and the other dead creatures were completely trapped.
They engaged in crazy predation and killing, and massacred the civilians of Ellu.
"Set up a defense line at the entrance," Li Jianaisi ordered, "Seal the outside!"
The rotten corpse made of white bones has a small and big head hanging on it. It is to distinguish you from the enemy. It grabs a ball of flesh and blood and stuffs it into its belly...
"The death knight is really evil...you can't control it at all," Riffissi stood up while wiping blood, "Slow down, you have to stay back and command, otherwise your army will destroy everything."
Elu, who was guarding the pyramid, immediately dragged more than a dozen carriages loaded with goods and food, and built a circular defense line at the entrance to protect the residents from escaping to the bottom of the pyramid. Warriors armed with slingshots, slings, spears and axes formed a sparse formation at the entrance.
formation.
"Throw the spear! Throw the spear!"
…
"They have no heavy armor and long-range attacks, but they move very fast without the blessing of white mud, so they are suitable for defense. When you attack other strongholds, the wild beasts will guard your base and expand your army."
"Riphiss, gather your troops and drive Elu out of the lowest pyramid. There must be no enemy reserves outside. Clear orders can also restrain the zombie tide."
Troll Sha supported me, climbed down the city wall, and surveyed the chaos in the town.
Li Jiansha witnessed that crazy scene and felt that her reason was about to lose control:
"Everything is priceless," Riphiss chanted, "The war is fought for hundreds of years. If you fail to win, the end of the virtual realm will swallow up all living things."
The situation is out of control.
The accompanying Ellu immediately set up camp and sentry posts. However, he did not notice that the rugged rocks and shadows under the cliff suddenly extended strangely.
Commodus was so angry that he almost carried him back in one breath. When I pulled out my whip, the circular formation above actually started to move.
Riffiss did not respond.
Rows of Ellu warriors held their spears tightly. We were side by side, with the spear placed under the shoulder of a warrior behind. The centurion holding a sharp ax stood at the back of the team, looking at the warriors with scorching eyes.
Give us encouragement.
Just like the ice peaks in the far north, I mobilized my troops with majesty and terrifying will. The ghouls gathered in accordance with my will, avoiding Ellu's sentries along the same route, and climbed over the city wall.
"Just like these merchants in the South who take magic potions for longevity, Ellu who pursues power will turn into a monster. I am sure you will find some monsters outside the pyramid. You will be surprised at all."
The originally weak and shriveled muscles had not become dry, twisted, and festered with pus oozing out of the mouth, and pieces of meat and internal organs hung under the fangs. Monsters that surpassed all reason and nightmares were holding severed limbs and
The skeletal monster howled in the white darkness.
"You're talking about closing the small door!" the low-level priest shouted angrily, "Get off your horse immediately!"
"Let's go," Riphissi shook his head, to see the tragedy on his feet, "You have to destroy Lord Ellu outside and attract Zulhakar to fight later."
Dead creatures distinguish Li Jian warriors from civilians. In an extreme period of time, a small amount of living corpses are infected like a snowball, and other corpses squirm and gather together, splicing together into stitch monsters and wild beasts on the spot.
The sharp horns were reverberating, mixed with shrill cries, and the men, women, and old men of Elu swarmed out of the stone house where they lived, and fled in a mess towards the pyramid altar guarded by the low-level priests.
The carriage loaded with goods blocked the tide of corpses and blocked the view of the phalanx. Only the loud banging and banging sounds could be heard inside. The priests and civilians standing lower down were making heart-rending tributes. We shouted.
"good!"
Every dead creature is my tentacle, and the battle information and threats along the way will be summarized in my mind. At that moment, I didn’t even have the idea that I was a human being, but something that could be described. It is an inhuman thing that is far superior to all living things.
