Chapter 206 Necromancers are prohibited from participating in battles!
…
In the wasteland northwest of Rolling Stone Town.
A long queue snaked away.
The cavalry led their horses at the front.
There was a lot of baggage and carriages in the middle.
At the back are the garrison, militia, reserves and temporarily recruited civilians.
Such a huge marching scene obviously exceeded the number requirement of 1,000 people.
But this doesn't actually violate the rules.
The secret war order requires that only registered personnel on both sides of the battle can actually participate in the battle.
However, it does not stipulate that only these 1,000 people will complete all transportation, logistics and other work during war mobilization.
This way.
Rolling Stone Town recruited a large number of civilians to provide transportation labor.
This will not only maximize the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, but also carry more heavy-duty war supplies.
for example.
In the middle of the team, hidden in the oxcarts covered with thick oilcloths, were four crossbow carts and a dragon crossbow.
And the carriage board near the ballista.
It is also filled with an astonishing amount of iron tools.
These iron tools will play a crucial role in the upcoming battle.
Matthew looked away from the vehicle.
At this time, he was riding the Red Flame Nightmare, wandering on the west side of the convoy.
Looking further west.
A wide river appeared on the horizon.
Across the river is Tall Leaf Collar.
The end of the river is their destination, the "moss-green hills" with extremely complex terrain.
It's midsummer and the climate is hot.
The sky above Rolling Stone Town was clear, and the soldiers squinted their eyes and covered their heads as they hurried on.
But after getting close to the moss-green hills.
The heat suddenly eased.
All this was affected by the thick clouds above the hills.
Matthew stared at the thick dark clouds, always feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
He quickly walked around to the other side of the team, parallel to Zeller and Rhaegar.
"The weather in the mossy green hills is likely to be an unexpected factor. If it rains in the middle of the night today, the ground will become very muddy, which may affect our journey plan."
Matthew said solemnly.
Zeller looked worried:
"I'm afraid it's the effect of magic."
Matthew also has the same concerns.
For senior mages in certain fields, it is not difficult to make clouds and rain, but to influence the weather in such a large range, at least a senior person in the storm field or precipitation field is required to do it.
According to their current information.
There is no such character in the black dragon army of Gao Ye Ling, but if this stormy weather really comes for Rolling Stone Town, it is very likely to cause a series of chain reactions.
They have to deal with it carefully.
"I'll ask Luo Lan about the situation later."
Matthew said.
"Where's Richard?"
Zeller replied:
"He is still in Rolling Stone Town, preparing to close the net. Once the warlock suspected of being a Thousand Changer is dealt with, he will rush over to join us."
Matthew asked:
"Did you notice anything?"
Zeller frowned:
"Since you reported his existence to me, I have been tracking and intercepting him 24 hours a day.
Facts have proved that Thomas is indeed a spy of Tall Leaf Collar——
He contacted a local aristocratic family in the High Leaf Territory, and that aristocratic family was the first human force to defect to the Black Dragon Lord.
Thomas was ordered by the Black Dragon Lord to steal information about Rolling Stone Town. This shows that Maeonoghas is not as simple as we thought. His last attack was the result of careful preparation.
Another point that is more suspicious is that I found that Thomas's warlock power comes from a certain five-color dragon, but not the black dragon."
Matthew nodded:
""Five Dragons Alliance"."
This word is not unfamiliar. Ever since Melinda mentioned it that night, Matthew has secretly looked it up.
It's just that most intelligence channels can only get a simple name.
Only Luo Lan’s gossip revealed more——
This is a dragon alliance formed under the will of Dragon God Brooke.
Currently only active in the south.
But as time goes by, if Dragon God Brooke can increase his penetration into the human world, then the five-color dragons in the main material world will most likely be united under his inspiration.
This situation is by no means good news for mankind.
The power of the warlock who works for the black dragon comes from another five-color dragon——
This added a touch of gloom to the already foggy battle.
"Don't worry, we are not unprepared."
Matthew encouraged:
"Countless pairs of eyes of the Seven Saints Alliance are staring at this battle in this battle. Even if the five-color dragons really want to make some big news, the legendary mages will not allow it."
Zeller smiled helplessly:
"Fortunately, Rolling Stone has you, otherwise I would still have a big question mark as to whose side the legendary mage is on."
Matthew also smiled.
Zeller's concerns only show that he understands the virtues of mages very well.
And indeed it is.
Without Matthew joining the alliance, Rolling Stone would be at a disadvantage in every aspect of this battle.
"Do you think Mae Nogas is reading our information now?"
Zeller asked.
Matthew shrugged:
"I don't know, maybe."
"Fortunately, we also got their information. Maybe this is a battle with semi-public information."
Speaking of this, Matthew couldn't help but recall the war games they had been conducting crazily these past few days.
Previously, he obtained the registration list of the High Leaf Collar from Fandral, which roughly recorded the distribution of the High Leaf Collar's troops in this battle——
Troops: 300 human soldiers (half of them are mercenaries, half of them are human soldiers who surrendered from the high leaf collar);
The total number of kobolds, jackals, etc. is 300;
Bugbear 100;
Orc 200;
Several personal guards of the Black Dragon Lord;
There are about 20 drow secret troops;"
The good news is, almost all of them are infantry.
The bad news is that the advantage of cavalry in most areas of the Moss Green Hills is not very obvious.
Matthew and others carefully analyzed this registration list.
Leave aside the Black Dragon Lord himself.
The elite among them are 100 bugbears and 200 orcs.
Bugbears are very tall and strong, and can be used as a mythical version of trolls, and they are not afraid of death and have infinite strength;
Orcs are also a first-class infantry race. Matthew is currently unable to obtain their equipment status, but considering that the Black Dragon Lord has been searching in the High Leaf Territory, it is estimated that the best equipment has been given to them, so it is not much different.
Half-orcs are physically strong and fight bloody battles, becoming more and more courageous. They have obvious advantages in hand-to-hand combat, and are probably inferior to the barbarians and trolls in the north.
The others are all miscellaneous soldiers.
Kobolds and gnolls can only fight with the wind.
The mercenaries and human soldiers of the high leaf collar may not be willing to work for the black dragon lord.
therefore.
As long as the opponent's 300 elites can be annihilated, the hope of victory on the frontal battlefield will become infinite.
No matter how strong the Black Dragon is, it cannot reverse the situation.
In comparison.
Rolling Stone's roster is more balanced -
"Commander: Rhaegar
Lieutenants: Matthew/Zeller/Donovan
Troops: 200 human cavalry (including knights and attendants);
Garrison (270 infantry, 30 archers);
militia and reserves 300;
121 members of the Formation Breakers mercenary group;
8 members of the Special Operations Force (Lorain, Richard, Lee Wyche, Lumiere, Leila, Obest, Clegg, Samantha);"
certainly.
Balance is balance.
The real elite are the 200 cavalry and Donovan's Breakers mercenary group.
How much effort the latter is willing to contribute is still unknown.
Therefore, the three people repeatedly deduced three core points about this battle——
"First, the special operations forces must try their best to contain or even kill the Black Dragon Lord, and at least pull him away from the main battlefield.
Second, seize Watch Mountain as soon as possible and win in site mode as much as possible, or use this as an opportunity to seize the initiative in further progress in the battle.
Third, conditions for cavalry to charge must be created on the frontal battlefield."
The above three items are easy to say.
But at the implementation level, no one can guarantee that it can be achieved 100%.
Therefore, the three of them imagined countless possible situations for each other.
Especially Zeller, he wrote more than 3,000 entries on the possibility of war situation deduction.
So that you can quickly respond to any situation on the battlefield.
It can be said.
For this war, everyone in Rolling Stone has worked hard and made full preparations.
According to Rega, it is——
"If I can't win in this way, then I may really have to go home and breed."
In order to prevent that scene from happening.
Rhaegar's current state can be described as very powerful.
He was riding a good horse with hellish blood. The armor on his body was tightly fitted. Three spears were hung on the horse's back. The big sword on his back shone with a colorful greasy luster from time to time in the sun.
Obviously this time, various oils were applied in advance.
At this time Rhaegar adjusted his horse and came closer.
His expression was serious, but his voice was very quiet:
"I heard you locked up Melinda?"
Matthew looked at him in surprise, and then glanced at Zeller. Zeller raised his hands to indicate that it was not him.
Matthew had no choice but to explain:
"I see that you don't seem to have any defense against her, so..."
"Well done!"
Rhaegar said fiercely:
"I've had enough of that woman, but because of Sif, I can't do it myself."
Matthew breathed a sigh of relief:
"As long as you understand."
"In fact, I plan to release her when the war is over..."
Unexpectedly, Rhaegar quickly waved his hand:
"Don't!"
"Don't!"
"She is now the senior magic consultant of Stuluk Industries. Letting her go will cause endless troubles. It's better to lock her up for a little longer!"
Matthew hesitated:
"But private incarceration at Mount Blackso costs money."
Rega waved his hand:
"I'll go out."
Matthew's eyes lit up, and he looked at him suspiciously:
"Do you still have money?"
Rhaegar coughed a few times, and then said to Matthew in a small voice:
"I still have some small savings. Since Melinda left, my consumption expenditure has been greatly reduced. I have saved a lot over the past ten years. I should be able to lock her up for a while, right?!"
Matthew thought the same, he was a prince after all, and his family must be well-off, so he no longer had any psychological burden:
"About 10,000 gold coins a week."
Rhaegar was shocked.
After a while.
He hesitated:
"For Sif's sake, let's forget it."
Matthew couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Zeller also showed a speechless expression.
However, this small episode diluted the tension between the three of them.
After a while.
Matthew took out a jar from his arms and handed it to Zeller carefully:
"Give it to the archers, but be sure to use it carefully and don't touch any wounds. For humans, this thing is enough to seal the throat with blood."
Zeller took it carefully:
“‘dart frog toxin’?”
Matthew nodded. This was the toxin produced by the ability "Gift of the Dart Frog" obtained from Su Ya.
After accumulating for so long, there is only so much.
But the effect is also quite amazing.
This toxin is absolutely fatal to any small to medium sized creature.
Matthew even considered poisoning.
But if you think about it carefully, the success rate of poisoning is not high. If it fails, it will be a pure waste. It is better to leave it to the archers, which can at least guarantee a certain efficiency.
after.
The three of them communicated for the last time before the battle.
As the team gradually approached the mountainous area in the southern part of the hills.
Matthew rode to the front of the team.
At this time, Silver Snake Richard had already taken care of the spy warlock and caught up with the team again.
So he and Rhaegar said hello.
The senior adventurers belonging to the special operations force quickly assembled around him.
Lorraine took out the piccolo and played it gently.
The next second.
In the surprised eyes of the soldiers.
One after another, fat and strong horses with white manes, running like phantoms, ran over from the western horizon.
"Phantom Pony".
This group of magical creatures is a group of Loran Contract.
Phantom horses can run three times faster than ordinary horses, and have the advantages of both short-distance sprinting and long-distance running.
It's just that it's difficult for ordinary people to gain the friendship of the Phantom Pony.
Except for Matthew at the moment.
Everyone got on their horses one after another.
"Let's go first!"
Matthew waved to Rhaegar and others.
The nine members of the special operations team broke away from the team in an instant and began to run towards the mossy green hills at extremely fast speeds.
It didn't take long for their figures to disappear from everyone's eyes.
At noon.
On a small soil slope fifty or sixty meters high.
A group of people stood proudly on the top of the mountain.
The phantom ponies were grazing leisurely at the foot of the mountain.
A blue light lit up above his head.
A magic carpet descends slowly.
Sitting above the magic carpet was a middle-aged mage with a pale face and a scholarly temperament.
"You came quite quickly, but be sure not to cross the boundary. You cannot cross this small slope until the war officially begins."
The middle-aged mage warned.
Matthew nodded and then asked:
"You are the judge of this battle, right? What do you call me?"
The middle-aged mage said calmly:
"During the war, we will not have any contact with the registered mages of the territory, so you don't need to know my name.
You just need to remember my number.
My number is Judgment 07.
Serve as the deputy referee for Rolling Stone's side in this battle.
I will record everything that happens in the Rolling Stone Army truthfully. Please do not try to bribe, threaten, intimidate or kidnap me.
Every battle has at least one legendary mage watching over it.
But this battle in the Moss Green Hills is even more special.
There are currently more than 100 mages evenly distributed above the hills.
They will observe your every move in an invisible manner.
So don’t even think about crossing the line!
certainly.
As long as everything follows the rules, you don't need to feel too much pressure.
We are only arbiters and will never interfere in the war itself."
Matthew showed a clear expression:
"So for now we just have to stay here, right?"
Judgment 07 nodded calmly and said:
"I have already verified your identity, and there is nothing wrong with the list. Now we just need to verify the identity of the next troops."
Matthew bowed to him politely:
"OK."
"Thanks for your hard work."
Judgment 07 didn't say anything, but started the magic carpet and returned to the sky.
Lorraine couldn't help but pinch her nostrils:
"So many people are staring at me, I'm embarrassed to read the pornographic book."
Lumiere looked at the sky curiously:
"Are there more than 100 mages up there? Don't they feel it's hot in the sky?"
Clegg analyzed:
"I guess that's because they all used invisibility."
Lumiere looked confused:
"Aren't units that use invisibility afraid of heat?"
Clegg said seriously:
"The reason we can feel the heat is all because of the sun. If the invisibility technique is turned on, the sun won't be able to shine on them. Of course they won't feel the heat... right?"
Come to the last sentence.
She also looked a little unsure.
Then he looked at Samantha and Matthew with inquiring eyes.
Samantha pondered:
"I can occasionally enter the invisible state, but heat and cold are affected by factors in the surrounding environment. Light alone doesn't seem to have much to do with it, right?"
Matthew was also stumped by this strange thinking angle.
Will units under the invisibility spell be affected by the heat of the sun?
"It seems to depend on the nature of the invisibility technique..."
He looked at Richard while thinking.
As an expert in stealth, the latter just turned his head silently and seemed to dislike participating in the discussion of this issue.
finally.
Luo Lan stood up to rescue Matthew and said:
"The easiest way to know the answer to a question is not to think, but to act."
As he spoke, he took out a huge loudspeaker from somewhere and put it to his mouth, then raised his head and shouted into the sky:
"Hey~~~!"
"Magicians of heaven!"
"Are you hot~~~~"
?~
?~
Lorraine's shouts formed an echo that echoed in the hills for a long time.
One minute passed.
No one answered.
Richard couldn't help but laughed:
"The mages don't have time to come back..."
However, he hasn't finished speaking yet.
From a corner above the sky, voices could not help but come from one after another:
"Of course it's hot!"
“It’s getting too hot and I can’t stand it!”
"If it weren't for the magic carpet's built-in cooling spell, I would have been dried out long ago!"
"When it hangs in the sky at noon in the summer, I'm almost turned into a star..."
Complaints from nearby mages came one after another.
The originally quiet moss-green hills seemed to have suddenly turned into a vegetable market!
The mages are complaining about the bad weather.
Although they didn't show up.
But their location can be determined based on the distance of the sound.
Everyone looked up in wonder.
Lumiere even wanted to chat with one of the mages.
But very quickly.
A stern female voice sounded:
"quiet!"
The vegetable market suddenly turned into a library.
Matthew suddenly became happy when he heard this voice.
Immediately afterwards.
The Judgment 07 quickly appeared.
He flew in front of Matthew's people and said with an unhappy expression:
"Don't try to get close to the mage who is watching!"
Is Matthew so strict?
He had a smile on his face:
"Sorry, my friends are very curious about magic, so there is such an episode."
Ruling 07 is unmoved:
"A verbal warning."
"If you do it again, it will be regarded as provoking the rules of battle!"
Matthew felt unhappy, but the war was imminent, and it was obviously not a wise thing to break up with the deputy adjudicator.
So he apologized in the most sincere tone and said:
"Not next time."
Seeing that he had a good attitude, Judgment 07's expression softened.
He whispered to Matthew:
"Don't do any more trivial matters in public. I know you want to confirm their location, but this has actually affected the fairness of the battle."
"I met Lord Ekmund this morning. He gave me a lot of good advice. For example, I will be stricter at the beginning. Only after I leave a lasting impression on others can I cooperate with you better."
"But in fact, I don't have much room to operate. I can only try to record words that are beneficial to you in the written record."
Someone from Ekmund again?
Matthew felt quite complicated in his heart, but verbally he could only express his gratitude.
After sending away Judgment 07 again.
Matthew said hello to everyone and motioned for everyone to stay calm.
3pm.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Matthew rode Nightmare alone to a piece of land southeast of the mountain.
This land is close to the Gold Prospector Basin and has countless underground caves.
He quickly came to a deep cave.
Then he started singing loudly.
"Summoning of the Dead"!
Along with Matthew's singing, skeletons or zombies crawled out of the hole one after another!
It was nothing at first.
But as the number of undead around Matthew increased, a sea of undead was formed.
Matthew could feel that there were many more eyes on him.
Matthew was unmoved.
Just call.
Seeing the number of skeletons and zombies increasing.
Ruling 07 finally couldn’t sit still.
He appeared next to Matthew and whispered:
"What's going on? What are you doing!?"
Matthew said with a smile:
"I am a necromancer. I have already registered it on the list. Is it normal for a necromancer to summon undead creatures?"
Ruling 07 hesitated.
Immediately he looked towards the unfathomable hole:
"But isn't this too much?"
"Your current summoning scale, based on normal summoning spells, requires at least one negative energy channel to be achieved."
Matthew said strangely:
"Can't it be that I have outstanding magic abilities?"
Ruling 07 was stunned for a moment.
Immediately he gritted his teeth:
"Okay, in theory, the summons of the Necromancer are indeed part of one's personal strength."
"But...I have to help you polish it up."
As he spoke, he took out a small notebook.
Quickly record above——
"August 1st at 3pm.
Lieutenant Matthew (Necromancer) of Rolling Stone Town happened to discover a large number of bones in the wild.
Matthew took the opportunity to use the summoning technique of the dead.
Obtain Skeleton*480, Zombie*480, and some ghosts.
This part of the undead army is a reflection of the Necromancer's personal strength and does not conflict with the number limit in the war registration list."
He deliberately tilted the notebook sideways while writing.
Of course Matthew could see it clearly.
“Thank you so much!”
Matthew said enthusiastically.
Judgment 07 waved his hand and flew into the sky on the magic carpet again.
Not long after.
Matthew then moved towards the top of the mountain with more than 1,000 undead.
Of course he transported these undead from the cemetery to the pit in advance!
If Matthew really wanted to summon so many undead from scratch, he would have to drain all his magic and spiritual power.
In fact.
Just maintaining such a large number of undead in action took up a lot of his concentration.
It is almost impossible to cast spells above level three.
This is a situation where you can’t have your cake and eat it too.
If Matthew wants to release high-level spells, he must give up controlling the undead.
But in that case, the attacks of the undead would be somewhat random and could easily cause accidental injuries.
So in the early stages of the war.
Matthew will play more of a behind-the-scenes manipulator.
Only when he really needs to show his fangs.
Only then will he give the enemy a thunderous blow!
4 pm.
The north side of the mountain is already densely packed with undead.
Matthew ordered the undead to stay put, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, holding a high-quality negative energy stone in his hand to restore his vitality.
After a while.
He began to chant another version of the summoning technique of the undead!
In a moment.
A huge bone dragon fell from the sky!
And behind this skull dragon.
There is actually a three-headed bone dragon following behind!
This scene once again alarmed the mages in the sky.
Matthew even heard people whispering and pointing.
But he ignored it.
He just said hello to Xiao Fei happily.
It seems that Xiao Fei is doing well in the negative energy plane, and he has gained a new bone dragon brother.
The development and growth of the Bone Dragon Legion is just around the corner!
However, at this time, Judgment 07 couldn't help but pop up again.
He asked a little anxiously:
"Where did you summon the four-headed bone dragon?"
"This quantity seems to be a bit excessive..."
Matthew asked rhetorically:
"Mr. Philolius is my summon, and the other three-headed bone dragons are his followers. In theory, they are also part of my personal strength. I remember that the alliance has not issued detailed rules for this, right?"
Ruling 07 seems to be feeling a little bit of pressure:
"But in this case, the number of people actually participating in the battle will far exceed the stipulations of the battle."
Matthew comforted:
"take it easy."
"The summons will be finished soon."
Ruling 07 surprise:
"Still summoning?"
He hasn't finished speaking yet.
A huge gray space-time rift suddenly appeared on the east side of the small earth bag.
But I saw the bone dragon Philoleus roaring with his head raised!
Along with his roar.
A large number of undead poured out of the negative energy plane crazily——
Skeletons, zombies, ghosts;
Mummy, vampire, Darth Vader, banshee!
Although the latter four are relatively rare.
However, the unique temperament of the middle-level undead still attracted a lot of attention.
Because it is an interdimensional summoning.
The number of undead brought by Xiao Bo was not many.
There are only about 500 in total.
But these 500 are all the fine products he collected in the land of six rings due to his status as king!
The average quality is about the same as what Matthew has.
To know.
Matthew’s undead have various special bonuses such as the Dark Life Contract!
For a while.
An army of more than 1,500 undead surrounded the hilltop.
Ruling 07 was completely dumbfounded:
"Are you going to create a natural disaster of the undead?"
Matthew looks innocently at the verdict 07:
"There is nothing wrong with my summons. Mr. Philolius is my close partner. He is also the king of the negative energy plane. It is quite restrained for a king to bring 500 undead."
"Is there any rule that says the Necromancer's summons can no longer summon summons?"
Judgment 07 looked embarrassed.
Then he let out a long sigh.
Record it truthfully in a small notebook——
"4 pm.
The summons of Lieutenant Matthew of Rolling Stone Town summoned 500 undead to land in the south of the Moss Green Hills.
Considering that there is indeed no prohibition in the league rules that the summoner's summons cannot summon other summons again.
Matthew's behavior did not violate the rules of war.
Therefore, it is approved.”
Then he hesitated.
On the cover of another book, he wrote that he would write in a pamphlet for collecting opinions——
"It is strongly recommended that necromancers be banned from participating in battles!"
And the previous one of this opinion is surprisingly——
"We strongly recommend that dragons be banned from participating in battles!"
This move was also not hidden from Matthew. After finishing writing, he smiled bitterly:
"I don't know what the higher-ups are thinking. They have to formulate rules and leave loopholes. If things continue like this, in addition to chasing dragons, major territories will probably start chasing necromancers again."
Matthew expressed understanding of his work.
But actually his mentality is none of my business.
As long as this battle can be won.
No matter how the subsequent rules are changed, it has nothing to do with him.
Anyway, as long as there are rules-related things, there are bound to be loopholes.
This one is blocked. If the worst happens in the future, we'll find something else to do.
But you can see it.
Ruling 07 was written and passed under great pressure.
He might as well not go to heaven later.
Just stay on the ground and stare at Matthew to see if he can do anything else.
However, Matthew remained quiet the rest of the time.
He controls the undead army to stay in place.
Until night falls.
Troops from Rolling Stone Town arrived one after another to the south of Shan Bao.
Of course the first to arrive were the cavalry troops.
At first glance, I saw such a large number of undead.
Even the cavalry who have experienced many battles will be a little afraid.
But very quickly.
When they realized that these undead would not harm themselves, but would become their allies to attack the enemy, their mentality adjusted a lot.
So did the other soldiers.
Because he had been vaccinated in advance and Matthew had a good personal image.
There was only slight confusion when the army from Rolling Stone arrived, and everyone calmed down soon after.
Ruling 07 completed the inventory quickly.
finally.
He will report the verification results:
"The preparations for the battle have been completed, the army in Rolling Stone Town has been confirmed, and the battle can begin!"
The female voice from before sounded in the sky:
"Gao Ye's army has also been confirmed. Let's wait for the early morning."
So the logistics and civilian workers started cooking.
After the soldiers had a hearty meal in an orderly manner.
The final rest began.
In front of the small soil bag.
There was obviously a large and dense group of people.
Overall it's quite quiet.
Most human soldiers are participating in the war for the first time, so they are inevitably nervous.
However, Rhaegar and Zeller did not deliberately let them relax.
It's okay to be nervous.
Only appropriate tension can make people burst out with stronger fighting power.
that's all.
Time passes minute by minute.
11:30 pm.
The soldiers completed the formation of the array again.
Arrive at 12 o'clock.
The female voice in the sky said:
"The first battle in Moss Green Hills has officially begun!"
The next second.
A crystal white light rose into the sky.
Everyone squinted to take a closer look.
But it was Matthew riding a Pegasus who flew into the sky!
In the night.
Pegasus shines brightly.
Matthew was also holding a lantern in his hand. The glow of the lantern fell and turned into dots of green light, guiding the direction of the undead people.
Almost at the same time.
Matthew at the front, Rega at the center and Zeller at the back all took out an identical scroll and tore it open!
After a few seconds.
All units glowed with a faint blue light.
…
"Hint: You used the Marching Scroll!
Your troops march faster by +50%;
Physical consumption -20%!"
…
Matthew didn't hesitate.
Riding a Pegasus all the way north.
The undead army took the first step, quickly crossed the mountains, and rushed deeper into the mossy green hills.
behind them.
Rhaegar raised his sword high:
"Follow Pegasus!"
"Target, Watch Mountain!"
Rolling Stone's army quickly followed suit.
The civilian husbands who had applied for the draft stayed where they were.
Silently and with expectant eyes, he sent the soldiers away.
Marching at night is actually a chore.
Especially bad terrain like moss green hills.
Fortunately, the dark clouds overhead did not have time to turn into heavy rain.
The ground that has been stepped on by the undead is relatively hard.
More than 2,500 units in Rolling Stone Town rushed on their way crazily, holding back their energy.
The original plan was to take about 5 hours to travel.
In the end, we arrived in less than three hours!
When Matthew rode his Pegasus and led the undead to the highest peak of Watch Mountain.
It was pitch black under the mountains to the west.
Not even the shadow of the black dragon army was seen!
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At least one of the three core goals had been achieved!
At that moment, Matthew ordered the undead to build a defensive line on the western hillside.
And Rega's people also began to go up the mountain one after another.
The militiamen rushed to the top of the mountain pushing cartloads of iron tools.
A large amount of war equipment was transported.
They began to race against time to set up fortifications on the mountain!
Until 6 o'clock in the morning.
When the fortifications on the western hillside began to take shape.
Matthew in the sky could vaguely see the thick fog in the west.
A dense column of troops appeared, belatedly arriving.
But what puzzled Matthew was...
Although the number and types of this army are generally in line with previous intelligence.
But only the most important role is missing——
The black dragon lord Mae Nogas is nowhere to be seen!
