Nozalo couldn't make such an important decision at all. He went back to report with a lot of doubts and a dent in his head.
Looking at Nozalo's retreating figure, Nigris couldn't help but complain: "I really don't understand you. You just formed an alliance with Cabrera, and now you have to get together with the Council of the Dead. What on earth do you want to do?"
?”
"What to do?" Anthony was stunned for a moment: "'Save, King'."
"Uh..." This sentence was said by Ange, even the pauses and tone of the words were deliberately imitated.
"How can you save His Majesty?" Nigris asked.
Anthony spread his hands: "I just don't know how to rescue His Majesty, so I have to try everything. Now I will mix the water and see if I can catch fish. Moreover, when we are weak, we will remain ambiguous with many parties."
Only by clearing the distance can you easily obtain the maximum benefit."
At this point, Anthony suddenly became serious: "Lord Naige, do you know which camp we belong to, the Warlock Alliance and the Immortal Empire?"
Nigris was stunned for a moment, why was he so serious all of a sudden? Is he afraid that he couldn't tell the difference between friend and foe?
"Of course it's from the imperial camp." Nigris responded angrily.
Anthony punched it on the head angrily: "We are from the adult camp, idiot."
"Zobada, you misled me. You asked the Warlock Alliance and the Undead Empire, and you didn't bring us with you." Nigris said angrily.
"If you don't remember it without asking, your position is not firm." Anthony laughed.
Nigris was so angry that he burst into flames, but he knew in his heart that Anthony wanted to remind it, because its unintentional words just now revealed its bias, and it actually thought that after forming an alliance with Cabrera, it would then have trouble with the Council of the Dead.
Is it bad to be together?
Looking back now, I am indeed a little biased towards the Warlock Alliance. This is wrong. They should not be biased. They are loyal to Ange, and Ange's will is the highest mission.
…
Ange actually didn't think so much. He went to save the lord because he was in danger. If the lord was not in danger, then he continued to grow his own vegetables, just like the Palace of Rest.
In his heart, the king was still just the lord who came to the farm for a walk from time to time.
Of course, I don’t know how to save him. He only knows how to grow vegetables. Of course, this kind of thing should be left to Anthony, who is better at it.
He was constantly trying to use the hand of crossing the world. Now he understood a little bit. It was not because of Buck's mark that he could use the hand of crossing the world.
It's because Buck's mark is attached to the soul of this body, allowing an energy path to penetrate between the soul of this body, the black crystal body, and the body.
Why is this like this? Because "I believe in myself", in fact, Buck has become a fanatical believer in his body, and his body's self-belief is equivalent to following God, which is somewhat similar to the gods of light and the main godhead.
relationship between.
After this series of nodes were fixed, his world-penetrating hand was successfully used on this body.
However, due to some unknown restrictions, he cannot transfer large objects at will like the main body, but there is no time limit.
Doesn’t this mean that you can reach out and farm the land?
As long as he concentrates, Ange can see the situation in the Palace of Rest, and now he can reach in...
I saw a lone hand flying around the farm, pulling out withered crops, plowing, sowing, and watering. After a set of procedures, the two abandoned farms quickly became tidy.
Satisfied, he took out his hand and saw Nigris looking at him sideways: "What did you find out?"
Ange rolled his eyes and thought in a hurry: "Put something, silver coins, life box!"
Yin Coin took the life box over in confusion and was stuffed into the Palace of Rest by An Ge.
Yin Coin's eyes lit up: "Great, I'm still worried about where to put the life box safely. There is no place safer than the Palace of Rest. Sir, where is it placed?"
"Brass book tower." Ange responded.
"Zobada, you did it on purpose, right?" Nigris jumped up in anger.
Yin Coin said happily: "The book tower is good. The book tower is clean. Don't mind Mr. Naige. Just treat it as an urn."
"I'll strangle you to death."
When Duroken heard the news, he quickly sent his own phylactery over. His didn't need to be placed in a brass book tower. He had his own palace.
…
Nozalo flew south with concern, crossed the line of death, and arrived at the silent and desolate Land of Death. The Parliament of the Dead was at the center of the Land of Death, and it was almost the furthest point from the Starburst Array on this plane.
This is a deep pit sunk into the earth. The deepest pit is the territory of the king. It is shrouded in the fog of death all year round. No one knows what is inside, and no one dares to enter the scope of the fog.
The Parliament of the Dead is located on the left side of the pit. Rows of buildings hanging on the cliff are the core building complex of the Undead Empire. Each building complex has a core, and the entire building complex surrounds this core building.
Carry forward their respective styles and form one.
Does it look a bit familiar? Yes, it is exactly the same as the layout of the auxiliary halls surrounding the main hall in the Palace of Rest, except that there are a lot of auxiliary halls here, and they are supported on the cliff, full of exotic style.
The Parliament of the Dead is located in one of the building complexes. A giant torch is inserted diagonally into the cliff, and the building is wrapped in layers like flames. At the top is an altar, with a sacred fire of the undead swaying on top.
Although the description is simple, if you take into account its height and construction difficulty, it would be a wonder in the human world.
This is not only the headquarters of the Council of the Dead, but also the location of the Empire’s Holy Fire of the Dead. If converted into human departments, the Holy Fire of the Dead should be considered the Ministry of Education.
The Holy Fire of the Dead carries the task of passing on knowledge. As long as you come here and put your thoughts into the Holy Fire, you can receive the knowledge and memories engraved in the Holy Fire. How much you can learn depends on the wisdom and strength of the soul.
Although the golden skeletons and iron zombies are intelligent and have high enough soul strength, don't expect them to receive much knowledge.
Liches and undead, even the lowest level, can absorb a lot of knowledge. After staying here for a few years, they can become knowledgeable scholars or mages.
Why do you have to stay for several years? Because the soul is weak. If the soul is strong, the progress can be accelerated a lot.
In addition to learning knowledge, you can also contribute your own knowledge to enrich the depth and breadth of the Holy Fire of the Dead.
However, it is not an easy task to keep the holy fire burning. The more knowledge the holy fire carries, the more soul energy it requires.
In the Temple of the Undead in the Lich Dungeon, the Holy Fire of the Undead went out because no one maintained it for a long time and provided it with soul energy.
Therefore, the more knowledge and memories it carries, the better. When the sacred fire was first lit, everyone was still curious and desperately stuffing things into it. All kinds of messy memories have no preservation value.
It took more than half a year to clean up, and Speaker Gust had trouble sleeping for a long time.
From then on, Holy Fire of the Undead no longer stuffed things into others. Even if it did, it was organized knowledge.
From the moment the Holy Fire of the Dead was lit, it has been burning for 780 years.
Speaker Gust stood in front of the sacred fire, took out dozens of soul crystals and threw them into the sacred fire. In the past, when there were many people, he could arrange shifts for everyone to donate.
Now most of the people are following His Majesty on the Starburst Array expedition, and the rest have also been sent out. They can only use soul crystals to carry them. He can't be asked to donate them. His old arms and legs can't afford it.
This holy fire of the dead.
Thinking of this, he muttered a little: "Oh, Your Majesty, we have been living in peace and harmony for so many years, why do you want to conquer them? Why don't you just send a starburst out, and it can't hit us."
He didn't know that the king's hometown was over there, and he couldn't understand it. He could only sigh a few times. Gust was in a state of distress recently. Those magicians trapped the king, but he still had the energy to descend the magic ladder to compete with them for the hearts of the people.
What the hell is the people's heart? Birth, old age, illness and death are the laws of nature. Only the immortal dead can change this law. No matter what, as long as they die, they will be in charge.
So when he first got the news, Gust was very confused and didn't want to pay attention to it. But soon, the people from the Guild of the Dead came back with news - the Warlock Alliance had burned all the corpses.
Pfft - Is this okay? This is going to destroy the foundation of the Immortal Empire. Gust can't sit still.
Then, the Guild of the Dead brought the second news - there was a famine outside and many people starved to death.
Dead people? Dead people are good. Returning to the embrace of immortality is nothing. But what about disaster relief? Why does the Warlock Alliance provide disaster relief? This is illegal.
In view of the illegal disaster relief provided by the Warlock Alliance, which resulted in the serious consequences of burning the corpses of living races after death, Gust immediately organized all his people to prepare to destroy the opponent's ladder.
However, after starting to prepare, Gust slowly discovered that things did not seem to be so easy.
The Undead Empire doesn't have many flying units, and the Warlock Alliance doesn't have many ground units. Even their flying cars can fly.
This also means that the Undead Empire needs to dispatch flying units to attack the opponent's smallest unit, and their weakest flying units are all high-level undead creatures, and their numbers are seriously unequal.
Moreover, the opponent also has a weapon against undead creatures, and the landing point of the ladder is also a terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. This allows them to take advantage of the number of undead creatures, but cannot take advantage of the individual strength of high-level undead creatures.
The ladder that can take off at any time can easily turn ground combat into air combat.
After much research, some people predicted that there might be a cold wave in the East Nai Peninsula, and when the cold wave could freeze the water surface, I pushed forward.
Good idea, just do it. Everyone knows the result. The problem is that their losses were extremely heavy. Twenty Lich Kings were dispatched, and four of them died. They were all shocked by the weapons that were used against undead creatures.
Broken soul.
As for those low-level skeleton zombies, the casualties are countless. Many of them had their bones frozen by the cold wave, but they didn't know it. When they heard the order, they rushed forward. As they rushed, the brittle bones broke and the skin and flesh cracked.
Yes, there were heavy casualties.
After the battle, Gust was so heartbroken that his soul was restless for several days.
Then the next day, another dracolich was lost, the heroic Gadrigo, his soul contractor, and even his body were snatched away by the damn light bugs.
The death of five high-ranking undead creatures was a heavy loss that the Undead Empire had not experienced in many years. Perhaps even the team that followed His Majesty on the expedition suffered such heavy casualties.
Because all the lich's phylacteries are silent, if there are casualties on His Majesty's side, someone will definitely use the phylacteries to resurrect them. There is no one resurrected now, which means that the situation is not at its most dangerous.
"I heard that the Church of Light has a secret technique that wraps a lich in a shroud and then kills it, so that it cannot be resurrected through the phylactery. I don't know if it is true." Gust murmured.
His Majesty's side returned safely, and everyone he brought with him was intact, but five of them died here. He could only imagine how furious Your Majesty would be.
Gust was shocked and immediately canceled all subsequent actions. If a few more people die, His Majesty will definitely dismantle his bones when he comes back... Oh, he is an undead, and the undead have no bones.
If we can't attack by force, what can we do?
In the following days, Gust was caught up in more painful chores, such as fighting for people's hearts and minds, restoring the economy, organizing production, providing disaster relief, etc., which were much more difficult than rolling up his sleeves and going in for the job.
There was a roar of souls in the sky. When I looked up, I saw a huge black shadow hovering and descending towards the position of the Holy Fire of the Undead. As the height dropped, the huge black shadow gradually shrank.
From the moment the huge black shadow appeared in the sky, dozens of statues in the surrounding buildings moved their gazes and locked on the black shadow. It was not until they sensed the fluctuations in its soul that the statues returned to their original state.
They are not invaders. If they were invaders, these statues would not be restored to their original state.
Nozalo fearfully turned into a human form and landed in front of Gust. If it wasn't for a hurry, it would actually be reluctant to land from the air. The gazes of these guardian statues were too oppressive.
"Why are you back? What's the matter?" Gust asked in confusion.
Nozalo is the main force that harasses the enemy. What happened when he came back? Can't he use the relay spirit to say something?
Nozalo said: "This matter cannot be explained clearly. I must come back and tell you."
After saying that, he sent all the memories of the sneak attack on Ange to Gust, including all the memories after he was beaten to the ground. Such a huge amount of memories cannot be carried out in the relay spirit.
All the memories are finally fixed on Anthony's words: We can cooperate, you save the king, and we need the starburst magic circle.
Is there such a good thing?
In this plane, the Church of Light has always been an oppressed force. It is nicknamed by everyone as the firefly in the gutter. It can glow, but it will explode when pinched. Therefore, Gust has no ill feelings towards the Church of Light, and it is not impossible to cooperate with them.
.
Anthony's proposal just caters to Gust's pain points. Compared with the Warlock Alliance, the enemy that has surrounded His Majesty, the Church of Light is too cute.
If Anthony was just talking about cooperation, Gust would still be dubious, but Anthony's words "We want the Star Explosion Array" were simply a stroke of genius.
No matter from any angle, the Starburst Array is the best choice for the Church of Light. If they stay on the ground, they can only hide in the ditch. The Starburst Array is their best place to go.
If the Church of Light can obtain the Starburst Magic Circle, not only will it have a foothold, but it will also be able to regain the confidence to fight against the Undead Empire by relying on the Magic Circle.
Put yourself in their shoes, if you were a senior member of the Church of Light, you would also covet the Starburst Array. The question is, do they have this ability?
Do you want to cooperate? Gust hesitated, walked to the edge of the platform, and looked into the bottom of the pit.
At the bottom of the big pit, there is a thick mist of death's breath, which completely fills the bottom of the pit and surges like waves, as if there is some giant beast lurking in the mist.
ps: I've been in pain since eight o'clock. Are you here so early? Forget it, let's not talk about those sad things. I'm not stuck on manuscripts anymore. My monthly ticket is about to expire.
