Arthur's army has no military discipline or management at all. He completely used the power of the Prince of the North Sea and the terrifying name of the Temple of Punishment to frighten the ordinary people who were forcibly recruited into the army. So it is conceivable that his army camp
What a mess it was inside.
Just because his camp was in a mess, the large group of troops led by Long Li, Yun Tianyi and Karls Chenxi did not alert anyone, and smoothly merged with the Longshan family's army led by Lin Qi.
Facing the three people's questions, Lin Qi simply made two excuses and completely dispelled all their doubts.
For the three of them, with the help of these powerful mercenaries, dwarf warriors, and Warcraft knights brought by Lin Qi, they will definitely be able to earn greater benefits from this operation. They will also have greater confidence in destroying
Arthur's plot, no matter from which point of view, cooperation with the Longshan family is beneficial and harmless.
So after spending more than an hour packing, Lin Qi personally led the team and entered the cave passage with the mighty Longshan family members. Mr. Mo was actually very good at marching formations. He sent out the troops of Ji Le Tian
The dead soldiers patrolled around, sending a large number of mercenaries with strong field combat experience to act as scouts, and then the dwarf warriors acted as the vanguard and entered the cave.
Dwarves have deep feelings for all caves. In the beliefs of many dwarves, they are even the sons of rocks. Therefore, the dwarf warriors brought by Lin Qi happily looked at their big pipes, drank barley wine, and laughed happily.
Move forward step by step.
Lin Qi placed the dwarf king, Wine Barrel, in this dwarf army. With Wine Barrel in charge, the dwarves with rough personalities did not cause trouble for Lin Qi similar to the one at Vias Port. The army went smoothly.
He moved forward in the cave and soon came to a cave with a radius of several miles.
There were corpses everywhere here, and the dried blood dyed the rocks a weird purple-red color.
Dozens of magic torches were suspended in the air, illuminating the cave. At least three thousand soldiers died here, and those who killed them were a group of cave black manes the size of domestic dogs with long black manes.
mouse.
This kind of cave rat is between a monster and a beast. An ordinary human warrior can easily kill several of them. But the people who entered the cave early were a group of ordinary people. They had just accepted it for a few months.
The trained civilians were pitifully weak in combat. Faced with the sudden attack by these cave rats, they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties.
The soldiers who died in battle were neatly piled together, and the ice magician cast frost magic on their corpses. In this underground cave, an ice magic was enough to ensure that their corpses could not survive for several months.
It will rot and deteriorate.
This is a cave. The conventional method of burning corpses to collect ashes will not work. If the corpses are allowed to rot, it is likely to cause a large-scale plague in the subsequent army. Therefore, ice magic has a great use here, and all
All the bodies were frozen together.
Lin Qi couldn't help but frowned as he looked at the corpses of the soldiers covered by thin sheets of ice.
The thin leather armor and weapons of these soldiers had been stripped off, and even their clothes were in a mess. It was obvious that they had been searched carefully after death. Lin Qi's mental power swept over these corpses, and even
Not even a copper was left.
There is no doubt that the meager military pay given to these soldiers by Arthur, who was short of military resources, was plundered back after the death of these soldiers.
"The guy who makes money from dead people!" Yun clenched his fist fiercely: "What a despicable bastard."
Kars Chenxi frowned, and he muttered in a low voice, wrapped in a thick black cloak: "What a shameful person. The honor of the Temple of Punishment will be lost by him. However,
Fortunately, what he ruined was the honor of the Temple of Punishment. Let him continue to ruin it!"
Kars Chenxi and several of the gods who came from the Temple of Dawn laughed at the same time. Their actions this time were originally intended to destroy the profits that Arthur and the Temple of Punishment might get from the Fourth Abyss, and at least part of them should be shared.
Profit matters. So they are happy to see Arthur take any irrational actions. The more irrational and the more excessive things, the better for the Dawn Gods.
The large group of people continued to move forward, with blood stains everywhere along the way and corpses that had not been cleaned up everywhere.
The caves here are as complex as spider webs. Countless strange cave creatures live in the huge group of underground caves. Warcraft and poisonous insects are the rulers here. The harsh environment is the biggest enemy here. Even those who have great courage in the surface world
None of the mercenaries dared to try to enter the Fourth Abyss from this entrance to the highlands. When these ordinary soldiers under Arthur entered here, a large number of casualties were inevitable.
What is gratifying is that the caves here are very spacious. Any cave, even the narrowest one, can easily accommodate hundreds of people walking side by side, and many caves can easily accommodate tens of thousands of people. Fortunately,
That's why Lin Qi dared to lead a large group of people into this place. If it were replaced by a small corridor where two people could not move if they were side by side, even Lin Qi would not dare to take such a risk.
But the spacious cave made it very convenient for the army to march, and it was even more convenient for those huge monsters.
Lin Qi and others traveled quickly along the green passage marked on the magic map for several hours. After bypassing several dangerous areas, they finally arrived at an underground cave with a diameter of more than twenty miles.
As soon as he entered the cave, Lin Qi saw a scene of blood and flesh in front of him. Nearly ten thousand peasant soldiers under Arthur formed an awkward formation that looked like a square formation, but also seemed like a round formation, as wriggling and changeable as slimes.
The huge formation was being attacked crazily by more than thirty black dragon lizards and evil lions. With every attack, a large number of peasant soldiers died tragically on the spot.
The dragon lizard is a strange monster that is a mixture of three creatures: an earth dragon, a lizard and a manticore.
Their heads are like lizards, but there is a sharp dragon horn on the top of their head, their lion-shaped bodies are covered with scorpion-like cuticles, and their sharp tails carry a huge stinger, which is extremely poisonous.
They are just hybrids of manticores, so they have no wings, but their strength and vitality are more powerful than manticores. They run like the wind, and the horn on their head can often pierce the bodies of several soldiers with a single blow, and they can slap it with a claw.
Going down, more than a dozen wooden shields were shattered with one easy blow.
Occasionally, there will be a few dragon lizards and evil lions that are addicted to killing, and when they open their mouths, a black fire will spurt out.
The thick and fishy smell, with the poisonous breath, wrapped around the thinly-armored soldiers, burning their bones and flesh into ashes. Only the black skeletons fell to the ground with a clang. Black flames continued to spurt out, and the ground looked like this
There are at least more than two thousand black skeleton racks.
"Damn Arthur!" Yun clenched his fist tightly: "As long as a few heavenly warriors accompany them, these dragon lizards and evil lions can be easily killed!"
Lin Qi narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "The Celestial Soldiers are all elites, and they are all in his direct line heavy armored legions. Among the soldiers who were sent to explore the road and die, he was willing to distribute the Celestial Soldiers."
Only a warrior has a ghost!"
Lin Qi snorted coldly and waved his hand: "Save these poor people and tell them clearly that it was the magnanimous, kind, generous and benevolent Earl of Longshan of the Longshan family who saved them. Well, give it to each of them.
Send some silver coins to calm the panic and let them follow us."
Everyone looked at Lin Qi in shock, only Mr. Mo and Yun suddenly laughed.
Mr. Mo nodded in admiration: "This is a good time to win over the family's hearts. If we can save more people and take more people out of the Fourth Abyss, then no one can shake the family's reputation in the five northern provinces.
.”
Mr. Mo's words were a bit ambiguous, as if the Longshan family wanted to poach Arthur and the Gallic Empire, and wanted to do some uprisings or riots in the five northern provinces. Lin Qi just smiled and said nothing, while Karl
Si Chenxi and several other young people from the divine family could not wait to rush forward with their people: "The almighty God of Dawn will protect you. Recite the name of my god, and you will all be protected!"
There was no need for Lin Qi's people to do anything. Karls Chenxi and others had already led a large number of Dawn Knights to chop more than thirty poor dragon lizards and evil lions into meat paste. A very beautiful girl raised a long
He used his staff and recited a few spells in a low voice, and a large piece of bright light shone from the sky above the cave.
The soldiers who had been so frightened that their hands and feet were weak and almost fainted were shocked, and their courage and strength returned to their bodies at the same time.
They looked in awe at Kars Chenxi and others who were shrouded in bright light. For a time, the reputation of the Dawn Temple was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Those around Lin Qi gave them rations and silver coins, and told them to follow Earl Longshan's army and continue to advance. After Earl Longshan's army protected them, the beautiful image of the Longshan family was also established in the hearts of these soldiers.
After resting for a while, Lin Qi led a large group of people to break through the lair of the dragon lizard and evil lion, and continued to go deeper.
The rolling flow of people continues to move into the cave, and they will find a large number of new forks every day, and Arthur will drive these soldiers into these forks to explore the road without mercy. There are thousands of casualties every day, and several days have passed because of encounters
Extreme danger, causing legion-level damage.
Everyone's corpses were frozen in the remote cave, and Arthur's army still followed the cave firmly and continued to penetrate deeper.
Gradually, a month passed by. (To be continued...)
