In the marching undead legion, a blue-skinned creature was firmly protected in the center of the formation by other legion members. On his body was the most important thing of the trip, the remains of the immortal hero.
Next to him, there was a green-skinned big-eared monster, but he looked glum.
"What's wrong?" York asked, noticing something strange about the big-eared monster, "Tanan, you look very depressed."
"They are all dead, right..." The big-eared monster seemed to have thought of something, and said in a trembling voice, "I mean everyone here, and my family."
York patted his shoulder: "In a sense, they are all still alive. Under the power of the master, death has lost its boundaries, and so do I. Do I look like a creature that died once? But
This is the fact. I have memories of the past and I have my own will. Can you say that I am dead?"
The big-eared monster with the same name as the immortal hero has a look in his eyes that seems to understand. It is undoubtedly too difficult for a big-eared monster to fully understand all this. He was about to say something, but was heard.
A burst of shouting from the side interrupted.
"Lord Commander, on the only way ahead, we found a large group of barbaric creatures gathering. It seems that they have been waiting for a long time. The leader of them is a strong barbarian riding on Behemoth."
Following the sound, York saw the big devil who was reporting the news, and the commander Farese in front of the big devil.
"That barbarian... the aura on his body made even me feel scared. I never thought that such a being could be born among those short green-skinned creatures." As if he thought of something, the big devil added.
After listening to the report, Farese thought for a moment, and then found a legendary succubus in the legion: "It's still a long way from the Endless Sea. Fenli, go and negotiate with those barbaric creatures."
"There's no need to go to such trouble." On the side, a mage in a bright red robe interrupted Farese, "They are just a group of lowly barbaric creatures. They have no qualifications to negotiate with us. Just rush over." "Jereff, are you questioning my order?" Farese asked slowly.
The Scarlet Mage's expression changed. Even though the commander in front of him seemed to be no different in strength from the legion's standard Corpse Witch King, who could be executed with a wave of his hand, at this moment, from Farese's body, he
Feeling the pressure of the momentum, he couldn't help but want to admit his mistake.
To be able to lead a legion composed of many legendary creatures, the commander's ability is particularly important. Even when facing existences on the legendary level, one must not be timid. Perhaps initially, the legion members had to obey Farese because of Rhodes' order.
However, after successive battles, they have recognized Farese's command from the bottom of their hearts. Only the Scarlet Mage who has newly joined the legion does not know this yet.
"I'm just giving reasonable suggestions. I alone can defeat those barbaric creatures. What's the need for negotiation?" Jerefer spread his hands and said. His words sounded very arrogant and did not turn into barbaric creatures at all.
The creatures are in his eyes, but the fact is that under his power, no matter how many savage creatures come, they can only be killed instantly.
Farese shook his head: "That's not what I'm worried about. Those savage creatures have no ability to stop us, but now, they are blocking us. Could it be that they overestimate their own capabilities and want to seek death? Compared with this, I
I believe they have a trump card that we don’t know.”
The Scarlet Mage was slightly startled. The commander's words undoubtedly made him realize something.
"The remains of the immortal hero are of great importance. Even the Lord of Hell will be attracted by this thing. There are some powerful enemies that even the master can't resist. We'd better proceed with caution. Now, do you have any objections?
”
Persuaded by the commander's well-founded words, the Scarlet Mage retreated. The arrogance of the mage from Brakada's Golden Age made him never put low-blooded savage creatures in his eyes. Now when Farese mentioned these,
Only then did he realize the problem.
After receiving Farese's order, just when the succubus Finley was about to go to negotiate, she was stopped by another voice.
"Let me go."
Not only Finley, but also Farese on the side was stunned when he heard this voice.
"York, the master's order is for you to escort the remains of heroes, not for you to do these dangerous things." Farese shook his head and did not agree to his request.
After taking the hero's remains aside, York insisted: "I will leave the hero's remains here. More importantly, I know the leader of the barbarians. His name is Kilger."
On the side, the big demon responsible for exploring the path nodded: "That's what those barbaric creatures seem to call him."
Farese stared at York: "What else do you know about that Kilgor?"
York quickly said: "He used to be my biggest opponent in the battle for the throne, and now he should be the leader of Crurod. When the hero Tanan was still alive, he once commented that he had a body as strong as Behemoth, and he
He also lived up to the evaluation of the hero Tanan. In the trial of the candidates for the throne, he personally killed the ancient Behemoth entrenched in the deepest part of the Krulod Desert."
After hearing York's comments, Farese's expression changed slightly. It seemed that what was blocking the legion's path was not an ordinary savage creature, but the strongest power of the entire Crow Lord.
Compared with the Mage Empire, the power that barbaric creatures can exert is extremely limited. The strongest creatures are only the behemoths, which do not have the terrifying deterrent power of the legendary mage. However, Farese feels that things will not be like that.
Simple.
"Okay... Since you have an old relationship with that savage creature, it's up to you to negotiate. Don't be afraid. Even if the negotiation fails and you die unfortunately, other legion members will avenge you. If the situation becomes serious, I will
Tell the master about the situation here, and you will be able to regain your life as soon as the master arrives." Farese made a decision quickly.
York nodded. Farese's words were more like a kind of comfort that allowed him to let go of his fear. But what the commander didn't know was that facing Kilgor, York didn't have any fear in his heart, but only endless anger.
He clearly remembers the events in which Kilgor colluded with other forces during the Battle for the Throne.
After leaving the remains of the hero and the big-eared monster following him to the care of other legion members, with the help of the big devil, York's figure quickly shuttled away in the flames.
