The "main force" of the Lancers has naturally attracted the attention of the undead cannon fodder, or even if they want to sneak quietly, it is impossible when the density of undead units reaches a certain level - because the undead individuals themselves have a tendency to be attracted to living beings.
The reaction is like a moth flying into a flame at night...
As long as the brains of normal creatures are not broken, they will definitely not play any tricks with the undead. After all, the opponent's instinctive hatred and hostility are indelible. If the creature does not want to die, it can only completely save the other party first.
Say it again.
And such a "fight" will naturally lead to bad luck!
If you lose, the living beings will just deliver food to the undead. If you win, the high-level undead hiding somewhere behind, or the undead wizard will also learn that something happened ahead because of the "magic feedback", which means that no matter what choice you make, it will be a fate.
Those who suffer...
In Liu Yifei's previous life, this kind of tricky "investigation method" also gave the troops and lords of the Dia camp a huge advantage. At least until they figured out the opponent's tricks, any beheading tactics would be a dream!
However!!
It just so happens that Liu Yifei right now is a bastard who knows his tricks well...
Where did this guy hide with his last lancer and Morguez's lieutenant?
In fact, these three people were standing "honestly" in the field behind them~ Anyone with eyes and eyes would not miss the three living people~
But unfortunately, the skeletons and walking corpses that were strolling around them were "turning a blind eye" to them. Do you think it's strange or not?
At least for Morrisgues's adjutant, what happened in front of him was not only strange, but also terrifying to the point of horror!
If Liu Yifei hadn't figured out that this guy might be up to something bad and pinned him down by the roadside early in the morning, maybe when the first skeleton passed by the three of them, they would have been so frightened that they couldn't help but draw their swords and attack!
After all, "appreciating" the skeletal beauty of the skeleton soldiers at close range is extremely inconsistent with the current aesthetic trend of the Kingdom of Erathia. It's not a big deal if the opponent's performance is a little too rustic...
In fact, not only Morrisgues's adjutant was frightened half to death, but even the lancers who had actually defeated demons on the battlefield had their hearts beat a little faster just now, and they pressed their hands slightly to protect their swords.
Constantly suppressing his instinct to fight the enemy...
It wasn't until the first skeleton soldier seemed to be blind and "ignored" the three of them to leave that the Lancer breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the young and somewhat excessive "commander" next to him.
Becoming more and more surprised~
If Morrisgues's adjutant still doesn't understand the mystery of this, the Lancer, as Liu Yifei's "assistant" before, has seen all the opponent's arrangements clearly.
Amazing mysterious knowledge, but connect everything together and look at the current "effect"...
The Lancers almost thought that the "commander" sent by the general to them and others might be some kind of "hidden identity" mage master!!
What did Liu Yifei do just now?
In fact, it is just picking up some large "parts" of some undead skeletons that were scattered and killed on the road, mainly including the spine, thigh bones, arm bones, skulls, etc., especially the joints, and grinding them into powder.
, and finally mix some water with the soil dug from the ground to make "bone meal mud", and then apply it on the body...
Looking at these things individually, there is nothing surprising at all. Even the Lancers themselves were a bit baffled when they first performed it~ After all, for a powerful professional warrior, this kind of "manual" work is really beyond his previous "
"Professional scope", he had never heard of anything like this in his entire military career, and all kinds of black people had question mark faces when he did it.
However, in the eyes of the Lancers, the final "effect" is as powerful as the mysterious spells cast by those "mage masters"!
Although the appearance of being covered in mud is somewhat unexpected...
But on the battlefield, as long as you can achieve your own goals and kill the enemy, what does it matter if you get dirty?
Using mortal means to produce effects comparable to magical spells, it’s no wonder that the majestic fifth-level lancers all looked at Liu Yifei with admiration...
However, in Liu Yifei's view, this method is indeed nothing -
In the NPC world, because the circulation of knowledge is greatly restricted, what is the most far-reaching impact that is least likely to be noticed by the local elite?
That is the "numbness" of the entire underlying world!!
If you don’t have knowledge or anything, that’s all for the future~ For many civilians, it’s better to say that life is a constant cycle, suffering and mechanical, so that even the smallest novelties and changes in life are like thunder from the sky, and it’s easy to
A huge impact on their poor brains...
However, these problems do not exist for the special group of "players" ~
Therefore, in the previous life, when players poured into this realistic magical world in large numbers and gradually understood the core rules of this world, many "unconventional" techniques were gradually used by the players, and the "bone meal mud" Liu Yifei is currently using
The former "animal repellent powder" is the product of such "cultural exchange"——
The essence of necromancy, especially necromancy, is "playing with the soul"!
Either "tear" a complete soul into countless pieces, or "pinch" countless soul fragments together to form an extraordinarily powerful soul body...
It can be said that undead spellcasters spend their entire lives spinning around in this routine, constantly tearing and pinching, accompanied by the endless pain of countless living beings or undead, creating a fearful majesty on their bone-ridden thrones...
This kind of power wrapped in "fear" is naturally very intimidating in the eyes of local NPCs, but in the eyes of players, there is nothing more than "playing it"!
In the end, players discovered the "fatal" flaw of low-level undead cannon fodder - the broken soul fragments, supplemented by a certain amount of magic to support the joints, constitute the most basic "undead spiritualism". However, the skeletons summoned in this way are all
The weakest garbage is not only weak in movement and slow in reaction, but even the skeleton itself has not been infiltrated and blessed by magic or undead resentment. In fact, its physical defense is very low.
Then as the skeleton soldiers exist for a longer time, or they stay in a place full of death energy such as a cemetery for a long time, not only the magic power of the undead can be increased, but even the originally broken soul fragments have also been nourished and strengthened to a certain extent.
Those who are truly capable of fighting—a higher level cannon fodder~
Due to the "corrosion" characteristics of magic power itself, the bone powder scraped off from the skeleton soldiers that have been infiltrated and enhanced by magic power for a long time is actually a commonly used casting material in undead magic, even in Erathia or Eri.
The strange story of smashing the skeleton soldiers, selling them on the black market, and finally returning them to the Kingdom of Dia...
I won’t talk about other things for now, but let’s just talk about the “bone meal mud” used by Liu Yifei.
No matter whether the age of these skeleton soldiers is high enough, Liu Yifei only takes the parts that are the main joints and are most concentratedly covered by magic power. Generally, these places are the most severely eroded by magic power.
The powder obtained by grinding it can be said to be of good quality and contains a certain degree of "death energy of the undead". It is then mixed with natural soil and mixed into mud to smear on the body... In this way, in such things as skeletons and walking corpses,
In the eyes of these low-level cannon fodder who have no intelligence and no eyesight, Liu Yifei and the three of them will become like "big rocks next to the cemetery" as long as they don't behave like monsters, exuding a very faint feeling.
That bit of death energy might make the passing undead feel "comfortable"?
And through this method, which is actually easy to figure out after understanding the essence, Liu Yifei instantly became mysterious and unpredictable in the eyes of the two people around him - anyway, his mind has not yet been liberated, and his knowledge is far from
Nowadays, Liu Yifei's small methods can be said to be refreshing.
In this way, the three of them reached the "invisibility" in the meaning of low-level undead. As long as they were careful not to speak, not to breathe heavily, and not to emit too much heat, they were able to successfully approach a nearby village occupied by the undead.
.
Then it was time to wait - after all, in villages where necromancers were most likely to be hiding, Liu Yifei didn't believe that his opponents would still only have skeletons and walking corpses.
No, the fighting gryphon did not flutter a few times, but it actually attracted a small group of undead hidden in the village!
As the fighting gryphons continued to scream threats in mid-air, the undead were also firmly attracted to the side of the village. Taking this opportunity, Liu Yifei led the two of them to crawl slowly, and finally got closer to the outskirts of the village - they could already see through the fence.
I now understand the general situation in the village.
For this kind of overseas village that has been newly developed for a few years, the scale is naturally not too big. The three of them found the target that Liu Yifei had told them to do without much effort - the cemetery located in a corner of the village!
The indigenous NPC's insistence on burial is the same as that in ancient times. They believe that destroying the corpse is a great injustice to the deceased, and even led to the judgment that the punishment of beheading is greater than the crime of hanging.
If it reaches the market town or city level, due to the large number of settlers and generally long history, there is really nowhere to place the cemetery inside, so it can only be moved to the outside. For example, in an ordinary village, the cemetery is mostly surrounded by fences.
Within the wall, it is also convenient for the villagers to worship at all times.
Under Liu Yifei's special guidance, Morris's adjutant saw with his own eyes that almost all the graves in the village had been dug up, and what was even more terrible...the three of them even saw several "trembling" corpses.
Broken skeletons slowly climbed up from several newly dug graves!
"this……"
Morrisgues's adjutant seemed shocked by the sight before him~
After all, when skeletons and walking corpses passed by him before, he was already fighting between the two groups. However, he was held back by the "master" who was leading the way and the powerful soldiers behind him. There were orders from the superiors, and he
It's impossible not to leave even if you want to.
But after all, he also knew that his opponent this time was Diya's undead army. As a soldier stationed at the northern border, no matter how afraid he was of the undead, he still had the basic cognition and psychological preparation...
But the current situation is still a bit "scary" - because this is almost equivalent to telling him clearly that Dia's necromancers can use the graveyards of their own people in Erathia to "produce" skeletons???
This kind of "mysterious knowledge" must have been unknown to outsiders in the past, or even the upper echelons of Erathia knew it, but they didn't think it was a big deal - weren't they just some tattered skeletons? Is there anything worth paying attention to?
Don’t we also have endless low-level soldiers who can compete with each other...
But as one of the "low-level soldiers", the adjutant was so shocked when he saw this scene that he almost screamed out in surprise!
Fortunately, Liu Yifei had quick eyes and quick hands. He directly covered the other person's mouth and signaled the other person to "shut up" with his fierce eyes. The three of them quickly retreated and had no nostalgia for this place~
At the same time, in this village that had become a "death place", in a mediocre thatched house, a pair of faint will-o'-the-wisp eyes kept staring at the direction Liu Yifei and the others came from. After pondering for a long time, he finally held back.
Got the idea of pursuing.
"Hmph~ They're just three interesting mice. Until we meet next time..."
He...or rather it didn't know it. After Liu Yifei and the others retreated far enough away, the adjutant couldn't help the fear in his heart. He tried to lower his voice and asked: "Then...what is that? The undead are...
Are we using our cemetery to gather more undead?? We...couldn't the ones we met before be..."
Of course Liu Yifei understood what the other party was referring to, but it was undoubtedly nonsense to say that the skeletons and other things "all over the mountains and plains" around him came from this small village~
But the current situation is special, Liu Yifei doesn't mind bluffing the other party: "It seems that you have figured it out, yes! Among the undead monsters attacking us, there must be new monsters summoned by the remains in the local cemetery.
Undead! That’s why I ordered another team to bring back some ‘complete’ zombie heads... Now, do you understand what I mean?”
When Liu Yifei mentioned this, the adjutant's face turned even whiter!
When the two sides separated before, Liu Yifei had personally told another pair of "feint attack" teams composed of two lancers and fighting griffons to save some intact and "fresh" heads of walking corpses while causing a commotion.
go back.
At that time, the adjutant didn't understand Liu Yifei's intention. He just felt that this "upgrade" order was so perverted. At such a dangerous moment, he actually didn't forget to get military merit for himself (beheading and bringing back is merit). However, combined with the current situation
What he saw, the adjutant had a bold guess in his mind:
Perhaps, this person meant to take those heads back as some kind of terrible "evidence"...
