"There are more than six. After No. W-07, there are No. 8 and No. 9... Of course, the further down the ranking, the weaker the strength."
Bai Xiaowen said, "According to the memory fragments of W-07, the top spreaders are stronger than him...and spreader No. W-01 is the manipulator behind the undead plague in the entire White Stone Territory.
He! His strength is even stronger than that of Ian."
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said: "If the enemy I face in the end is just a leader-level strongman similar to Ian, I won't spend so much effort preparing... However, when I searched for memory fragments
, but read a terrible news... What we are facing is not one person, nor ten people... but an entire legion!"
"A legion?"
The other three people all stared wide-eyed.
"Based on the memory fragments of W-07, I have deduced this intelligence information, but there is not enough evidence yet. The home base of the undead plague spreader points to the Red Leaf Territory. We will assemble the team now and equip everyone.
Send out weapons, including those bandit servants and newly joined citizens... Let's go to Hongye Territory." Bai Xiaowen said.
"However, according to imperial law, one lord's army has no right to enter another lord's territory, otherwise it will be tantamount to invasion!" Bonita said.
"It is precisely because the empire has too many rules and regulations that the spreaders of the undead plague are so rampant," Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "Moreover... How far has the situation in the Red Leaf Territory deteriorated? Is Lord Ma Qi alive or dead?
It’s hard to say.”
Bonita: "Since...since you found the clue, why don't you go to the Black Rock Territory to find Archbishop Arlo, or go to the Black Rock Defense Line to find Prince Nicholas? Asking them to send troops into the Red Leaf Territory would be better than doing it yourself, right?
.”
Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "There is no conclusive evidence that the Red Leaf Territory was infiltrated by the spreaders of the undead plague. It is difficult to trust the senior personnel of the Human Alliance."
After all, Bai Xiaowen's status is not high enough, he is just a baron, and he is a poor one. Baishi Town is just an inconspicuous piece of the many small noble fiefdoms in the empire.
This is a heroic side mission, and it cannot be completed so easily. There is no need to let Bonita know this kind of off-site information.
After half an hour of gathering, 327 people gathered in the open space in front of Lord Bai Xiaowen's house.
More than half of these three hundred and twenty-seven people were once bandits, and a small half were newly joined citizens.
The fighting power of the citizens is very weak, probably equal to that of bandits and servants.
Three hundred and twenty-seven people were organized into ten teams, and each team was assigned a captain. Bai Xiaowen's mental power spread out and he communicated directly with these captains. Within the coverage of his mental power, no matter how far away they were,
It's like talking in your ear.
Controlling ten teams at the same time, as well as controlling his own summoned creatures, would be insane for most people. However, for Bai Xiaowen, it is not too difficult for him.
He does not need to direct every move of the ten teams, he only needs to give simple instructions such as forward, retreat, detour, etc.
"Old...Lord, the brothers have gathered and are waiting for your next order." Kitts' speaking style was still a bit arrogant.
He has now established himself as the Sheriff of White Rock Town, and according to rumors, the lord is considering canonizing a few knights - Holy light, a robber can be canonized as a knight, which is something Kitts has never dreamed of.
Thought of it.
"Everyone brings a week's worth of dry food, checks their weapons, issues a gag order, aims for the west, and marches urgently!" Bai Xiaowen ordered, "This time, we are going to do a big deal that will cause a sensation in northern Xinjiang!"
"Roar!" The bandit guards were already in high spirits under the stimulation of gold coins.
…
After a day of rapid march, the army led by Bai Xiaowen could already see the outline of the main city of Hongye Territory in the distance.
It’s better to say it’s a city than a fortress! The city wall is high and thick, and huge ballistae are set up between the battlements. From this angle, you can see the ant-like workers busy building the city wall.
is thicker.
At night, in front of a sentry tower, Bai Xiaowen ordered the bandit guards to stop. He lost sight of the sentry standing on the sentry tower from a distance.
Bai Xiaowen knew clearly, and this confirmed the information he obtained from W-07's head. The guards of the Red Leaf Territory had been eroded by the undead plague.
For example, this sentinel looks no different from a normal human on the outside, but in fact it is just covered in a layer of human skin. Its essence is that of a zombie clan, similar to W-07.
It is easy to kill a level 4 ordinary monster, but the difficult thing is not to alert anyone, especially not to let him alert Red Leaf City.
Bai Xiaowen controlled the shadow assassin and quietly touched it.
The Shadow Assassin circled around the sentry tower and found out that there were three bone sentinels in the sentry tower. There were two people standing above the sentry tower and one person inside the sentry tower.
Bai Xiaowen called Bonita over and quickly formulated a tactical plan.
The shadow assassin lurked inside the sentry tower, turned behind the dead bone sentinel, and directly launched the assassination skill, cutting the opponent's neck with a sword!
At the same time, Bai Xiaowen had already raised his gun smoothly.
Bang!
A dead bone sentry was shot in the center of the eyebrow. 250% headshot critical hit damage, coupled with the effect of ignoring defense, there is no doubt that this dead bone sentry will be killed instantly!
The fall of his companions made the last bone sentry quickly become alert. He suddenly stuffed a bone whistle into his mouth and was about to blow it.
However, the moment Bai Xiaowen's bullet came out of the chamber, the skeleton mage next to him also took action. He threw a lightning bolt, and the electricity penetrated through it, interrupting the movement of the dead bone sentry, preventing him from performing the "police sentry"
"Skill!
Bonita took aim, raised her hand and sent out a holy shock. Her mastery of light spells has reached level 5, and this blow is also extremely accurate. Coupled with the bonus effect of holy damage on undead creatures,
The health of the last Bone Sentinel dropped drastically.
The shadow assassin rushed over and stabbed the dagger in the back, taking away the last trace of its health.
All three Bone Sentinels were wiped out, and there was no movement in Hongye City, so they were completely unaware of it.
After the death of the Bone Sentinels, they revealed their original appearance, which was a deformed body covered with wrinkles and a slight rancid smell.
"This is the undead. It is also the goal of our trip."
Bai Xiaowen lowered his voice and said to the many bandit guards.
Some of the guards had a look of fear on their faces, especially the newly joined citizens and bandit servants. It was okay to let them do some chores, but if they were to fight head-on, these citizens and servants really didn't have much experience.
What's more, fighting against the terrifying undead.
"What, are you scared?" Bai Xiaowen encouraged, "There are mountains of gold and silver treasures in Hongye City, but now they are guarded by those damn undead. When Hongye City is broken and all the undead are killed, how many gold coins do you want to get?
Just take as much as you can! Until your rucksack is full, your boots are full, and even your hands are full of gold coins!”
The robbers became excited.
"Let's go! Everyone, shut up, don't even fart!"
The White Rock Town Guards marched under the cover of night and lurked a few miles outside Hongye City.
Bai Xiaowen led Li Shuyi forward quietly. The main entrance of Hongye City was closed. Looking at the ten-meter-high city wall and the heavy gate, Bai Xiaowen gave up the idea of attacking by force - he could give him an iron army to try, but a group could only
Bandits who are fighting with the wind should save their money.
Bai Xiaowen walked around the main entrance and stopped at the base of a section of the city wall that was under construction. He quickly gave up control of W-07, the four-color charm in his palm flashed, selected the yellow charm, and faced the crenellation of the city wall where one was carrying stones.
The undead servants shot away.
After a while, a rope hung from the crenellation of the city wall. Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi climbed up along the rope and climbed over the city wall!
After entering Hongye City, the two of them secretly came to the gate before being discovered. The undead slave controlled by the mind-obsessed charm only had level 2 strength and followed quietly with his hands lowered.
"There are four guards guarding the main entrance, all of them undead." Bai Xiaowen spent his psychic points and gave the results of his insights one after another. "One elite level 5, two standard level 4, and one standard level 3. In addition,
The patrol team of the city wall will pass by every 15 minutes or so."
Li Shuyi nodded: "As soon as the patrol team leaves, we will attack quickly."
There are more than a dozen soldiers in the patrol, and they must be avoided undoubtedly.
After the patrol left, Bai Xiaowen raised his hand and released a group of summoned creatures. At the same time, the shadow assassin who lurked in the past once again used an assassination skill to kill the weakest standard level 3 undead soldier, starting the battle.
prelude.
Just when the other undead soldiers were about to send out a warning, Bai Xiaowen directly intimidated them with an indiscriminate range of fear.
Angry Claw flew over, swung its giant claw twice, and with the assistance of Li Shuyi and other summoned creatures, it directly knocked out the health of two standard level 4 undead guards and tore them into four pieces.
It was only then that the leader of the elite level 5 guard woke up from the state of fear. However, facing the siege, it could not make any splash. It fell to the ground and died without even sending out a warning signal.
The skeleton swordsmen and shieldmen turned the winch and opened the fortress gate. A few miles away, Dr. Zombie, who stayed in the bandit team, immediately informed Kitts of the news.
The robbers kept cheering and rushed over.
This was an obvious lack of military discipline, but there was nothing Bai Xiaowen could do about it. He could not train a group of bandits into an iron army that obeyed orders and prohibitions in just a few days.
After smiling bitterly, Bai Xiaowen quickly ordered the skeleton sword and shield players to set up a defensive formation.
At this time, the undead guards of Hongye City had discovered the bandit guards rushing over from a distance and sounded the alarm. One patrol after another rushed towards the city gate and tried to close the gate.
Like a wave hitting a rock, the undead soldiers collided head-on with the skeleton swordsmen and shield-bearers, raising their swords at the same time and killing each other. Fortunately, the area at the city gate was small, with four skeleton swordsmen and shield-bearers and a giant wolf with angry claws.
, enough to block the intersection and prevent these undead soldiers from reaching the winch.
After the bandit guards came over, the battle line quickly began to push back.
"The target... the Lord's Mansion of Hongye City! After occupying the City Lord's Mansion, all the gold coins belong to us!" Bai Xiaowen roared, and the already high morale of the bandits became even more exciting. Using a dozen elite bandits as arrows,
Pass through the main road of Hongye City and fight your way in.
After fighting all the way to the central square of Hongye City, Bai Xiaowen's army encountered fierce resistance.
A heavily armored knight riding a skeletal war horse, with eyes that seemed to have cold fire burning in his eyes, raised the heavy sword in his hand and led several cavalrymen to launch a countercharge!
Those cavalrymen were all elite-level terrifying knights. Bai Xiaowen had seen them before in the world of Aaron's plane.
These elite terrifying knights were powerful beings that Bai Xiaowen could only look up to at the beginning, but they are nothing to Bai Xiaowen now. The real problem is their leader.
[Skills: Double Strike (Passive), Terror Charge, Blood Slavery (Passive),???]
This terrifying knight leads Jericho. He has high strength and constitution, but low agility. But with the skeleton war horse as a supplement, his movement speed is as good as any agility boss. Spirit 12 is on the low side, but this is also the limit for most undead creatures.
It's a common problem.
However, 12 points of spirit cannot affect Jericho's performance at all!
Two of his three detected skills are passive skills that can be triggered without mental power, and the effects are explosive!
[Double strike: Normal attacks have a 30% chance of triggering an additional attack. The additional attack ignores the target's additional armor. 】
[Blood Slavery: Enemies killed by the Terror Knight Commander have a certain chance of turning into undead creatures to fight for him. 】
Herod——
The skeletal war horse raises its hooves, and the leader of the terrifying knights, Jericho, has launched the [Terror Charge]!
Bai Xiaowen shrank in his heart and immediately gave orders to the summoned creatures, shouting at the same time: "Everyone get out of the way of the charge!"
However, Jericho charged too fast. More than a dozen robbers on the path were knocked away, and blood spurted out from all of them! Jericho swung his heavy sword and struck a man in mid-air with a heavy blow.
On the robber, the heavy sword phantom flashed, and another sword struck the same part, directly splitting him into two pieces!
After the two parts of the bandit fell to the ground, blood flashed, and he quickly shed his skin and flesh, turning into a half-body skeleton soldier. He joined the camp of the terrifying knight commander Jericho, and in turn attacked Bai Xiaowen's team.
.
In contrast, although Bai Xiaowen's summoned creature avoided the straight line of the charge and avoided the fate of being knocked away, it still inevitably fell into a state of fear for 3 seconds because it was too close to Jericho!
This [Terror Charge] skill is very powerful. In addition to knocking up targets in a straight line, it will also scare targets on both sides along the way. It has two control effects.
