Liu Yifei placed his staff in front of him, and a short bone spear was ready to be fired, ready to shoot at the female lizard man who might make an attack. At the same time, three vampire counts gathered in front of Liu Yifei to guard against the opponent.
What a drastic move.
However, the two sides had not started fighting yet, but the female lizard man standing in the middle shouted angrily, but she said it to the lizard man captain behind her.
"Humans, watch your words and don't try to challenge the pride of the lizard warriors."
The female lizard-man then turned her head and said to Liu Yifei again.
"I'm sorry if I offended you in any way~ It's just that the above was told to me by Swordsman Captain Somer, and I'm just telling it truthfully."
"Hmph~ That stupid woman? I have seen her from a distance. If your human stronghold hadn't been heavily guarded, that guy would definitely not have survived for so long.
It's just that although she is stupid, her judgment is not outrageous~
Just like what she said, our tribe has indeed begun to experience food shortages, and it is still a bit early to say that we will run out of food~
Moreover, even if the human garrison is powerful, our proud lizard warriors will choose to seemingly break out before they are exhausted.
There are still dozens of adult monitor lizards in our tribe now. If we try to break through, your arrow tower stone wall won’t be able to stop us.”
The female lizard-man stared at Liu Yifei closely with her snake eyes and spoke fluently.
It's just that Liu Yifei looked on the surface and nodded in agreement with the other party from time to time, but in his heart he didn't take the other party's words seriously.
Dozens of adult monitor lizards?
Miss, can you help me?
That is a powerful creature up to the fourth level.
Even if it has not been upgraded at all, it must have a foundation of level 20, right? A fourth-level creature at level 20 can compete with a first-level creature at level 40 or so~
Besides, it’s an adult monitor lizard?
I'm afraid that Sommer's spearmen are not enough for the opponent to attack~
If you really have dozens of adult monitor lizards in your hands, will you be tortured to the point of running out of food by a little Somer? It would be amazing to have more than a dozen of them.
It's just that Liu Yifei must not say these words, otherwise there will be no way to reconcile the matter today.
"It's just that although you humans have always been cunning, you didn't lie in this case~"
The female lizardman's final appearance was shocking.
"Oh? So you actually know about the undead attack?" Liu Yifei said somewhat surprised.
"Hmph~ Foolish humans, don't underestimate what happens to us lizard people in the swamp. Nothing can be hidden from our eyes and ears. We are the only masters of the swamp."
The female lizard man said proudly.
"In that case, why did you come outside? Aren't you worried about the defense of your tribe?" Liu Yifei asked dumbfounded.
Even Somer knew he was outmatched and planned to retreat. Are these lizardmen stupid? Do they still have time to wander around in the mud?
"In fact, we have repelled an enemy attack. Although... although the tribe lost some men, we finally won.
But the elder was very worried about the next situation, so he ordered me to go out and check the surrounding situation to ensure that the enemy would not continue to invade in a short time.
At the same time, we also need to confirm what plans you have in your human stronghold and how you will respond to this undead attack. Finally, I hope we can find a safe and hidden place, and the tribe may consider moving."
The female lizard man seemed a little embarrassed and said, after all, these are the difficult situations of the tribe, and Liu Yifei's enemies and friends are unknown at the moment. Once too much of the actual situation of the tribe is revealed to the enemy, it is difficult to guarantee that the human race will still be able to survive at this juncture.
We will not continue to invade. When the lizardmen are attacked from both sides, the problem will be huge.
"What? A safe place? Are you still moving? Are you all fools? This swamp is so big, and the enemy has almost completed the siege
Once our stronghold is defeated by them, do you think any place in this swamp will be safe?
Let me tell you~
Those undead will not be as kind as humans. They will definitely carry out all-round cleaning, and then connect the entire place to build an advanced base for the undead.
Let me tell you honestly, just when you were besieged here by Somel, great changes have taken place in the Kingdom of Dickwell outside.
Now the Seyan City area of this province has declared a rebellion. Not only is it going to an all-out war with the king's army, but a large number of undead have also appeared in various places.
Do you think this is the only place where undead appear?
But there are many outside
And they're killing people everywhere and creating more corpses
Wherever they go, everything turns into a land of bones. They are using more corpses to convert more troops.
Do you think you can survive by hiding in the swamp?" Liu Yifei said a little funny.
What? How could such a big thing happen?" Now even this female lizard-man who had always behaved very arrogantly and calmly was panicked~
So, where else can we hide?
If you stay, you will be killed. If you go outside, the situation will be just as bad. Oh my God~ Has the God of Nature abandoned his people?"
Let me go~ Is this female lizard man stupid? I said it so clearly, and it was obvious that I had pointed out the way out for them, but she couldn't even guess it? Liu Yifei said depressed in his heart.
"Hey~ No, I said madam, have you never thought of joining forces with our stronghold? Although the undead are coming menacingly, you are the real local snakes. If you combine with our stronghold, you may not be able to cooperate with each other.
How hard is it to fight?"
In fact, after learning that the undead's stronghold in the southwest corner had a spirit-level boss stationed there, Liu Yifei knew that there was no hope for these stragglers, but at this time, the scene still had to be said.
"Join forces? Haha~ Compared to the undead, you humans are the truly terrifying people.
On the surface, you have formed a strategic alliance with us in the swamp, but you often kill our wandering tribesmen in various places. Is this your way of forming an alliance?
Furthermore, although the enemy in front of us is fierce and cruel, we still have the chance and courage to resist~
But we are unable to guard against the dagger coming from behind
If we really join forces with you humans, I'm afraid what we have to worry about is not being massacred by the undead, but being killed by you guys using cunning tactics."
The female lizard-man stared at Liu Yifei and said without giving up.
Let me take a look and it seems that although in the general direction, the swamp and the human race are allies, privately, both sides don't like each other, right?
"No, no, no~~~ Dear Madam, I don't agree with what you said~ Maybe before this, the relationship between us was indeed tense. But this is not entirely our responsibility.
Why was Somer ordered to destroy you? That's because you secretly sold war beasts to various rebel bandits.
This is undoubtedly something that defies the authority of those in power. If you don't do this, no one will be willing to endure the discomfort of the swamp to hunt you down.
After all, for us humans, the swamp is not a beautiful place.
Of course, you will definitely say that it is because you are forced by life. In short, everyone has their own reasons and they are just playing their own roles. There is nothing to argue about.
However, the current problem is that we are all facing the same enemy and obviously this enemy is something that neither of us can win over. Can’t we join forces to defeat each other first?”
"Hmph~ You want to join forces? It's not impossible, but you have to show your sincerity first."
The female lizard-man didn't listen to Liu Yifei's eloquent words and snorted directly.
"Oh? Sincerity? What kind of sincerity do you want to see from me?" Liu Yifei became more energetic at this moment.
These days, the most fearful thing is to encounter a seamless egg. If someone really refuses to eat it, and does not eat oil and salt, even if he has great skills, he can only be disappointed. But if the other party puts forward conditions, then we still have to continue talking.
Is it possible to go down~
"It's very simple. Not long ago, we lost contact with two patrol teams on the outside. Unfortunately, one group happened to be in the north and the other in the east. I suspect
If you can go to the undead strongholds in the east and north, purify the corpses of my people to prevent them from being used by the corrupt and evil undead, and then bring back evidence, I think our elders will be willing to meet you."
I'm going~~~
I actually have to go to two ghost clan strongholds to do a mission. Fortunately, I met my brother. If someone else came here, he might not have the strength to break into the opponent's stronghold, right?
This system is so unkind, it actually designed such a perverted mission.
But Liu Yifei was just complaining about his misfortune. After all, for now, this "condition" can be achieved easily.
After accepting the mission, Liu Yifei didn't talk nonsense to the other party, and hurriedly let the vampire take him to the undead stronghold in the east. With the strength of the Bone Dragon Gregory, it would only take a matter of minutes to eliminate it. At this moment
I'm afraid that a certain dragon is taking a nap.
As for Milanknos, it's better to give him a little more time.
But just after Liu Yifei left, the lizard spear thrower captain named Latte came forward and exchanged something with the previous female lizard man in incomprehensible lizard language. The female lizard man first said
He nodded, then shook his head inexplicably, and then waved his hand to repel the other lizardman spear throwers, but he disappeared into the darkness again, as if no one had ever appeared there.
The situation was just as Liu Yifei expected. When he arrived at the undead stronghold in the eastern part of the swamp, surrounded by three servants of the Blood Count, the place was already a scorched earth~
There are countless broken bones scattered on the ground. It is impossible to tell which ones belong to the undead soldiers and which ones are the relics of the dead corpses. Or, they were all just the relics of the dead corpses~
The wall made of bones mixed with magic and stones was completely destroyed. It looked like it was hit back and forth by heavy objects. There were huge gaps in several places. You can imagine that a certain dragon roared and charged.
appearance.
Most of the two arrow towers made of bones had collapsed. They were now exuding scorching smoke along with other buildings in the stronghold, telling the story of endless desolation.
As for a certain Infinite Bone Dragon, he was sleeping soundly in the rubble~
"Hey, hey~ I say, great Lord Gregory, could you disturb your nap for a moment?" Liu Yifei stood in front of Gregory's huge mouth and shouted with his neck raised.
"Humble Necromancer, what happened this time? The great Lord Gregory is a little sleepy after the fierce battle and wants to take a rest~" the Bone Dragon muttered.
Your sister is trapped
This kind of opponent is worse than cannon fodder to you. Why don't you come here and roll over and spit twice?
This kind of workload is comparable to that of a farmer uncle who starts wiping sweat for no reason after walking out of the house carrying the export, right?
Why do you have the nerve to say you are tired?
Are you tired, uncle?
I ran back and forth for a long time, my shoes got wet in the swamp, and I still had to negotiate with the enemy. Are you tired?
Liu Yifei was complaining heartily in his heart, but there was no trace of depression on his face, and he continued to follow the good advice.
What a pity. I just found out that there is a spiritual master hiding in the southwest corner of this swamp.
That what
As strong as Lord Gregory, of course you will not take ordinary spiritual levels seriously, but you have been promoted recently, and now is the time when the enemy is weak and we are strong. If you take this opportunity to defeat two more opponents
, Lord Gregory, can't you absorb more soul power?
Although we haven't found a way to prevent the loss of soul power, there is always no harm in absorbing more, right?
I originally planned to ask you, Lord Gregory, to go with me, but I didn’t expect that you are already tired.”
"Hmph~ Stupid undead apprentice, don't show off your poor tongue in front of the great Lord Gregory. After staying in your territory for so long, I don't know your habits?
Have you encountered another problem and need Lord Gregory's help?
Hum~
Ignorant guy, I have already experienced your meager skills. Do you think I will be fooled by you again?
But now that I am under your control, I can help you a little, and your attitude is pretty good, so"
"So you agreed to help?" Liu Yifei said excitedly.
"Do you think it's easy to deal with a Dreamling-level opponent casually? Even if it's me, if I'm not careful, I will end up in a terrible end.
If it had been before, it would have been annihilated, but now that my great wish has not come true, how can I leave willingly?
I will only help you properly contain the enemy. If you want to face the enemy head-on, I will not fight with 'your' enemy unless I can find the enemy's flaw."
The bone dragon's roaring soul language made the word "you" very clear, and clearly told Liu Yifei that it did not regard Liu Yifei as one of its own at the moment, and it would be better for each of them to separate clearly.
"The flaw? Just like last time, can't you kill the enemy all at once when the opponent opens the soul space? That move is great." Thinking of the last time he almost killed the opponent with one move, Liu Yifei couldn't help but admire this carefree person on the surface.
, in fact, a simple and honest bone dragon who can't help but throw away his dirty tricks in a war.
"Hmph~ That's because that idiot has just gained too much power and can't control it freely. If he is a spiritual powerhouse who has been trained for many years, how can he release his soul space so casually in front of the enemy?
There is never too much of a good thing at once. Stupid Necromancer Apprentice, what do you think your chances are of meeting two idiots in a row?
Besides, although soul power is ubiquitous in space, it is troublesome to enrich it. Just forcibly gathering those wandering soul powers is extremely difficult.
If you just kill one spirit, apart from providing me with some growth experience, you won't get any more soul power."
Well, how about...how about this?
Did you see the small tribe in the swamp before? Go and ambush nearby, because there may be harassment by the small undead army sent by the opponent~
I have something to do later, and we have a cooperative relationship with the other party. Before I rush over, can you help stop the undead troops from the southwest?
If the guy with the spirit level is not here, the other bones will definitely not be your opponent, and if the spirit comes out, it might be a good opportunity for a sneak attack." Liu Yifei continued.
"Hmph~ It's not impossible for a clever guy to help you, but now that your matter is settled, don't forget Lord Gregory's important matter. When you come to the human race this time, you must remember to help me find out about Inheim. If
If you don’t find out anything in the end, be prepared to bear Lord Gregory’s endless wrath.”
The bone dragon roared threateningly.
"Haha~ Definitely, I must have now confirmed that everything was caused by Inheim. As long as we follow the clues, we won't be afraid that he won't show up in the end.
As long as he appears, Lord Gregory, why don't you just ask whatever you want? You won't be wrong."
After sending the old man off with a lot of gratitude, Liu Yifei wiped the sweat from his head, sighed to himself that it was really hard for him to be a lord, and then he started to rummage through the ruins.
Since the scene had been repeatedly ravaged by heavyweight bone dragons, it was unrealistic to find the corpses of the swamp tribesmen and purify them. Maybe they had been burned by Gregory's dragon flames long ago.
Fortunately, the mission item would not be damaged. In the end, Liu Yifei turned over a broken spear in a corner, called "Senhan in the Quagmire", and it was clearly marked as a mission item. Liu Yifei smiled and put the broken spear into the package.
Then he continued to rush towards the undead stronghold on the other side...
