"But what I didn't expect was that we just lined up and everyone was ready for a bloody battle..."
“Those skeleton monsters ignored us... and wandered past us.”
"What?" This time it was the governor and the old Taoist priest's turn to be surprised.
“No attack? No bloodthirsty or sexual expression?”
The little sergeant who came back to report the news replied decisively: "No!"
"It's more like... they seem to be attracted by something, or called by something, and they are heading towards the same destination."
“Our captain thinks this is very problematic, so he is now mingling with the skeleton army, picking up some white bone remains as a disguise, and trying to see where these skeleton monsters are going.”
“Just send me, the fastest person, to come back and report the situation ahead to the governor.”
“The marching speed of those skeleton monsters is not slow, similar to that of an ordinary army.”
“Based on their footsteps, I’m afraid they will encounter our army soon.”
This was such a huge thing that the governor's face suddenly became serious.
“Following my order, the army immediately took cover and returned to the left to avoid the skeleton army.”
These skeleton monsters are not interested in individual soldiers, but it does not mean that they are not interested in larger armies.
As the commander of an army, he cannot ignore any danger.
Also thanks to the fact that the governor was a veteran general, as soon as his orders were carried out and the army gave up the plain facing south, the army of skeletons reported by the spies arrived.
“Skeletons, weird, weird, lots of them!”
The soldier lying at the front of the team saw so many skeleton monsters for the first time.
His mouth couldn't hold back the gourd.
The veteran next to him pressed his head down, fearing that his long neck would be exposed.
Yeah, what a scene this is.
It is white, the bones are cracking, and countless weird-shaped bones are pieced together.
Maybe it’s an animal, maybe it’s a human, maybe it’s just a random combination of half-animal and half-human.
Everything that is moving is moving forward.
The investigators did not get any details wrong... If so many skeleton monsters were pouring towards the border...
A cold sweat suddenly broke out on the governor's face.
Fortunately, fortunately they are heading south!
But what are they doing going south? You must know that although skeleton monsters can sometimes pass through the Jedi blockade and reach the scope of human activities.
However, the skeleton monsters belonging to each formation cannot leave the local area.
They are like the nutrients in that formation, or the worms that need to be carried to produce effects.
If so many skeleton monsters from other places have left... wouldn't the formation they were in become invalid?
“This can only show that the Jedi in the south have really let go.”
“Perhaps the southernmost dynasty discovered this situation earlier than we did.”
“So we have to hurry up.”
“As soon as this army of skeletons leaves, order the army to occupy this place!”
The aide who was marching with the army next to him added: "So, do we still need to follow up on what happened in the south?"
The old Taoist priest and the governor responded in unison: "Yes! Must!"
One reason is that if things in the south are not investigated clearly, it will affect his current results.
If something happens to the south, it will be useless even if he captures all the areas covered by the Long Snake Formation.
If any powerful spirit appears in the far south, the opponent only needs one breath to remove his head.
Wouldn’t it be that the territory that we spent so much effort to occupy will return to the hands of others?
Secondly, the old Taoist priest always felt that the fighting in Wuliuqi Middle School, which had not released the seal at that time, was very strange.
He had a very ominous premonition and didn't know whether to talk about it or not.
“Governor, I request to fall behind these skeletons and explore further north.”
"Oh?" The governor was a little surprised: "It's less than ten days, why do we have to go north again?"
"What's more, Taoist priest, you see, my soldiers are now mixed with the team and have become one with them."
The old Taoist priest's eyesight was pretty good. When he looked in the direction pointed by the governor's clairvoyance, he saw that there was a group of people in the army of skeletons who stood out very unexpectedly.
Some of them have flesh but are covered with a funny bone.
It was the bold captain who led his team members to mix among them and followed them secretly.
The reason why the governor did not want to let the old Taoist priest leave is also very simple.
Even though the seal has been lifted, the skeleton army has also moved north.
But there is no guarantee that they will encounter any more intelligent monsters on their way south. These monsters with their own thoughts will not be easily controlled by other people or other monsters.
If they encounter such a thing, and a Taoist priest who knows magic follows them, they will always have some confidence in their hearts.
The old Taoist priest knew the governor's concerns, so he patted his young apprentice.
“Don’t worry, Governor, I will leave my disciple behind.”
"He has learned all about my true heritage. Once something happens, leave it to him to handle, and there will be no problem."
This is not wrong at all. As for the old Taoist priest's tricks of deception, his young apprentice has already learned it.
And even if his young apprentice can't handle it, when he comes back, everything will be over.
If the governor is to blame, he will say that his apprentice is not good at learning or has too little experience in fighting the enemy. He always has an excuse to excuse himself.
It's better than following by yourself, being unable to deal with monsters and smashing the signboard.
is that so?
The governor thought for a while and it seemed that going north was the most dangerous thing.
Since this was the case, he nodded and agreed to the old Taoist priest's proposal.
In this way, the two parties once again divided into two teams and moved forward according to their own routes.
Now the speed of the people on both sides is different...
It also gave Mai Fan more time when he entered the thick fog.
If we encounter the armies of neighboring dynasties now... it will not be of any benefit to Maifan.
Fortunately, the seal has a threshold for entry and exit. Having entered the fourth formation, he is not in danger of being surrounded by the dynasty's army for the time being.
It's just that Mai Fan, who was walking in the thick fog, didn't have much sense of direction.
He just headed as far as he could toward the feeling of north.
Moreover, in this dense fog, the diary lost its effectiveness for the first time. The precise radar map that Mai Fan had turned on only showed a border here, and the inside was as gray as the dense fog.
The person who caused all this must be a very powerful person.
Just as he was thinking about it, Maifan's visibility suddenly increased from less than half a meter at the beginning to nearly ten meters.
