At the same time, other powerful men under Lei Xiao's command were showing off their power inside and outside the main palace of Kongqing Town.
The originally extremely unfavorable battle situation was quickly completely reversed.
Although many of the undead warriors were originally elite soldiers who were equipped with extraordinary equipment and had reached the second level of strength, they were naturally vulnerable to the fourth level strong men who were almost all equipped with fifth level magic weapons.
"To make my soldiers unable to sleep peacefully even after death... That guy, the Nightmare Knight, must die!"
Looking at the densely packed skeleton soldiers not far away, all wearing familiar second-level or third-level equipment, Lei Xiao tightened his grip on the staff in his hand, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Before this war began, which was about the life and death of himself, his territory, and all the territories, he had already prepared for the worst and had deduced many possible bad situations.
But fighting against these loyal soldiers who had once been loyal to him was obviously not within the expected range.
"This extremely troublesome death barrier directly wipes out the equipment advantages of my soldiers, and even has a counterproductive effect. It is indeed something I have never considered before."
"This undoubtedly shows that the battlefield in this magical world is much more complicated than Blue Star. You can never think with the previous inherent thinking. I guess there will be more and more unexpected things in the future, right?"
I saw Lei Xiao waving his staff and summoning a fierce thunder, while thinking secretly in his heart.
"Therefore, I must master as soon as possible more classic battle cases from various human nations, and even all races on the mainland, and combine them with the experience of my predecessors to enrich myself to the maximum extent. After all, the opponents I will face in the future will definitely be bigger than the last.
Difficult."
"Of course, that's assuming I can get through the current crisis smoothly."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao shook his head helplessly and returned his attention to reality.
Not long after, under the strong attack of the main force headed by Lei Xiao, the remaining defenders quickly recaptured all the fortifications and regained control of the area where the City Lord's Mansion was located.
"Lord, you came just in time!"
In front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Fang Hai, as the commander-in-chief of the City Lord's Mansion, came to Lei Xiao with the captains of the Great Swordsman Squadron Aaron and Bard, the captain of the Magician Squadron Zhu Sha, and the vice-captain of the Princess Guard Qingshu.
in front of.
Fang Hai's gray beard was already stained red by dried blood, and the brocade robe outside his inner armor was also covered in bright red.
As for the other commanders, there are also many scars all over their bodies.
In particular, the two great swordsman squadron captains Aaron, Bader, and Baiguo's brother Qingshu, the colorful armors on their bodies were all pitted and looked extremely mottled and dim.
It is conceivable that without the protection of these high-end equipment, they would have been stained with blood on the battlefield.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Lei Xiao nodded to the subordinates in front of him, and then ordered Ye Cang to step forward for treatment.
Since Lei Xiao had already distributed a large amount of healing potions to Kongqing Town before, the injuries of several people were effectively relieved from the beginning and were not very serious.
As for the bumpy equipment on the commanders' bodies, Lei Xiao didn't care at all. He could just replace it with new ones when the time comes.
Although his reserves of equipment above level 4 are relatively limited, the equipment below level 3 is already quite abundant.
"Lord, it was all because of the poor command of my subordinates that the city lord's mansion almost fell!"
Following Ye Cang's treatment, Fang Hai knelt down on the ground, his old face full of reluctance.
"Lord, it's all because Mr. Fang Hai came to support in time, otherwise the City Lord's Mansion would have been lost long ago!"
The sound of crisp armor clashing sounded, and Qingshu, who was originally responsible for the defense of the city lord's palace, took a step forward and knelt down on one knee as well: "If you want to blame, please blame your subordinates!"
"I don't blame anyone. You are doing very well for being able to fight hard under such an extremely unfavorable situation where the opponents are killing more and more. In other words, I'm afraid there are not many commanders who can do what you are doing.
degree."
Lei Xiao smiled gently and helped the two of them up in turn.
Next, through Fang Hai's report, Lei Xiao learned.
Fang Hai, who was originally in charge of commanding the reserve force, was attacked by the new aristocratic forces outside the city with increasing intensity.
That is to say, the two recruit brigades, an elite squadron of the city lord's palace and all the healing forces were dispersed to the four walls of the city to assist the original garrison in defense.
As for himself, Aaron, Bard and other great swordsmen, as well as the mercenaries recruited, they have been fighting on the northern city wall where the attack was the most intense and the losses were the heaviest, suppressing the opponents who tried to rush to the city wall.
After the sudden appearance of the Death Realm, Fang Hai and Captain Yal, the commander of the northern city wall, also decisively evacuated the city wall, intending to clear out the undead warriors in the city first.
During the evacuation process, Fang Hai and Yaer chose to split up because they learned that the city lord's palace and the storage area in the north of the city were in emergency at the same time.
Fang Hai led two squadrons of elite swordsmen to rush to the distant city lord's palace, while Yaer led the remaining garrison soldiers and mercenaries to rush to the storage area in the north of the city.
"After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, the skeleton soldiers had already climbed up the outer wall of the City Lord's Mansion. Although their subordinates fought hard, they still could not withstand the opponent's attack."
Fang Hai sighed softly, his old face full of helplessness.
"Originally, the only ones guarding the city lord's palace were a princess guard of Qingshu and an elite magician squadron of Zhusha. Faced with the siege of a large number of skeleton soldiers, I am very satisfied that they can defend to this extent. After all, the city lord
The defense line around the mansion is very long.”
Lei Xiao gently patted the broad shoulders of the burly old blacksmith in front of him, nodded and smiled: "In addition, just like what Qingshu said, it was because of Mr. Fang Hai's rush to help that the defenders of the city lord's palace were not completely wiped out.
."
Looking at the faces of several people who were darkened by gunpowder smoke, Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile, calming everyone's nervousness: "The most important thing is that it is precisely because of your bravery that the civil servants and servants in the city lord's palace
, we were able to save our lives, and Kongqing Town was able to continue to operate. Each of you has contributed a lot."
"With these words from my lord, my subordinates will never give up even if they die!"
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the commanders shook their shoulders and lowered their heads towards Lei Xiao.
"Okay, time is urgent, let's talk about something serious."
Seeing that the morale of his subordinates had become high again, Lei Xiao did not hesitate, and just like before, he briefly described the situation in the Jue Death Realm that he had learned so far to Fang Hai and others.
"It's actually like this..."
While Fang Hai looked at each other with Aaron, Qingshu and others, his old face was full of surprise and said: "I didn't expect that the despicable methods of the Nightmare Knight were so ruthless."
"Having said that, the battlefield is a place of death and no life, and the opponent's methods are ruthless, so we must be better to survive in desperate situations."
Lei Xiao's eyes were bright and he said coldly: "I will never let go of that Nightmare Knight. Of course, that also includes the new aristocratic forces outside the city. No matter who brings blood to this city, no one can escape.
."
"What the lord said is absolutely true, and my subordinates are willing to fight for the lord until the last moment!"
While excited, Fang Hai bowed and reported again: "By the way, Lord, before the Death Realm began to operate, the three people who were originally stationed on the north city wall, Huzhang and Nanxing Nanyue, learned that the west city wall was the same.
After encountering the fierce attack, I said hello to my subordinates who had just arrived and went to help the west city wall."
After a pause, Fang Hai's old face, which was scorched black by gunpowder smoke, showed a serious look, and added: "After that, my subordinates will not know the situation of these three colleagues."
"So, it is possible that the main power players such as Huzhang are restrained somewhere in the west of the city by some unknown force?"
Lei Xiao rubbed his chin thoughtfully and asked again: "By the way, Mr. Fang Hai, did you see Kunbu, Celia, Sean and others on the way here?"
"Return to the lord, I didn't see it."
Fang Hai shook his head and responded helplessly: "To be honest with you Lord, my subordinates even got lost several times on the very familiar streets on their way to the city lord's palace. This realm of death is too evil. I'm afraid Kunbu
, Celia, Sean and others are probably lost somewhere in the thick fog."
"I understand, then I'll leave this place to you."
Lei Xiao first left three elderly magicians to sit in the city lord's mansion, and then nodded to Fang Hai and other commanders.
The City Lord's Mansion is the central system of the entire Kongqing Town, so it naturally needs to be more tightly defended.
With three great old magicians who work closely together, even if they are attacked by a group of undead soldiers, they can still be safe.
In addition, Lina has just reported that the central area of the city where the city lord's palace is located is not the location of the formation eye.
Just when Lei Xiao and others were about to leave, they heard Zhu Sha's rather worried clear voice, rang again: "Lord, please be careful, you can trap the three seniors Huzhang, Nanxing, and Nanyue."
The power is beyond the reach of ordinary undead warriors. There may be even more terrifying existences hidden in this black mist..."
"I know, you should also be careful."
Nodding to Zhu Sha, whose freckles on her face had been covered up by her dark skin, the lavender wings behind Lei Xiao flapped, and immediately they were joined by Hong Ye, Randall, Ye Cang, Ariel, Chao Yan, and Lina Six
A subordinate of the main force flashed and disappeared at the door of the city lord's mansion.
Speeding between the buildings shrouded in black mist, Lei Xiao's brows involuntarily furrowed again.
From the moment we entered this city, no matter whether it was the granary in the east of the city, the treatment center in the south of the city, or the city lord's mansion just now, except for the phantom of the nightmare knight.
My group did not encounter any threatening opponents, and everything seemed to go too smoothly.
"According to the Nightmare Knight, if this is really the realm of death, then it will definitely find ways to convert more soldiers and residents into undead, so that it can achieve its ultimate goal."
"However, judging from the current situation, the Nightmare Knight obviously doesn't care. I forcefully reduce the number of undead here... What exactly does he want to do? Who and where are the main powerhouses such as Tiger Stick and others trapped?"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao and his party, under the guidance of Lina, broke through the black fog blocking the road and arrived at the northern area of the city.
The north of the city is the storage area for merchants, and it is also the key and credibility of the commercial town of Kongqing Town.
Lei Xiao also built a large number of defense facilities here to deal with possible crises.
"If I remember correctly, the ones guarding this place are the Battle Maid Squadron of the Princess Guards and Lin's Trade Fair Guard Squadron, plus the garrison and mercenaries led by Al, there shouldn't be any big problems.
Bar?"
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
Amid the mist, the door to the storage area ahead was already within easy reach.
Standing in front of the door of the storage area, Lei Xiao was surprised to find.
The door is open here, everywhere is empty, and the silence is unnerving.
"What's going on? Not only can't you see a single defensive soldier, there's not even a trace of the undead warriors?"
Ariel, who was following closely behind Lei Xiao, blinked her long eyelashes and asked in shock: "Where have everyone gone?"
"Have they all been transformed into skeleton soldiers?"
Looking at the empty scene in front of him, even the nervous Chaoyan couldn't help but gulped and said: "It's simply too unimaginable."
"It should be impossible for all the defenders here to be converted into undead warriors."
I saw Hong Ye, who was leading the way with Lina, squatting in the corner next to the door of the storage area, pointing to the crimson stains sprinkled on the ground and saying: "Although there are a lot of blood stains here, they have already dried up. Judging from the amount,
Look, it’s definitely not the size of the total number of defenders here.”
"Doesn't the blood trail match the size of the defenders?"
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and said thoughtfully: "In this case, the possibility of all the defenders being transformed into undead is indeed very slim."
"But if they were not converted into undead, then where did these defenders go?"
Ariel's confusion and surprise became more and more obvious on her fair face: "The soldiers of the Princess Guards alone will never leave their posts without permission."
"This matter is indeed quite strange."
Lei Xiao frowned and ordered to the subordinates beside him: "Maybe there will be survivors in the storage area. Let's go in and search."
"As you command! Lord!"
All the subordinates bowed together and immediately began to take action.
However, after some searching, Lei Xiao made an unexpected discovery.
The inside and outside are the same, and as expected, not even a single person can be seen.
Returning to the gate of the storage area, Lei Xiao turned around and asked Lina, who had just returned: "How is it? Is there anything unusual here?"
"Go back to the lord, there is nothing, and this is not the location of the formation."
Lina shook her head helplessly, her delicate wheat-colored face full of disappointment.
"So, only the west area of the city is left?"
Lei Xiao's eyes were bright and he said calmly: "It seems that all the answers are there, let's go."
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao and all the main subordinates flashed their bodies and flew straight towards the west of the city.
