Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 24: Unstable snowy night

Heavy snowfall.

White, huge snowflakes fell from the sky, falling on the ground one after another, and the fortress was calm. Except for the soldiers standing above the city walls, everyone else had already returned to their homes, or had gone to the tavern, and it was warm The campfire drank a small wine and enjoyed it for a while. But even in such a laid-back atmosphere, there are tensions that can't be masked-they are very clear that the undead army has once again come outside this fortress, their tens of thousands, those evil, cold Undead are likely to attack them at any time, and because of this, they value this peaceful time even more, because it may be the last time they chatted with their companions in the pub and farted, facing the dancing girl The last chance to whistle, to accompany a loved one at home, or to share your love with one another in a secret place.

But for some, the battle has already begun.

"Five scouts were dispatched in three days. The bones were really heartbroken."

Rhodes threw the report in his hand to the table, and said calmly, shrugging his shoulders. Over the past few days, the enemy has been sending scouts faster and faster, and the scope has gradually expanded. But unfortunately they

The moment I stepped into Rhodes' territory, I lost --- fighting GM on a map without the fog of war, this is the rhythm of life and death. For these scouts, of course, it is impossible for Rhodes to do it himself.

To pack up, the first time he took the initiative to let Sir Bayer intuitively understand the power of undead. As for the next, he didn't need to worry about it--the little bubble gum and canary were enough to destroy

Those guys.

However, what made Rhodes uncomfortable was that perhaps because his soul was acquired too quickly, after that, those **** undead would no longer send Lich and Vampires.

Undead creatures step into their realm and are replaced by lower-level units like Skeleton Cavalry and Ghosts. They apparently intend to use their quantitative advantage in intelligence reconnaissance and avoid the other party's acquisition again

Your own intelligence. Now Rhodes can't help it, soul acquisition is a precious skill, and those low-level necrotic creatures don't have much wisdom at all, even if they are caught, they have little value. And their surnames are too low, also

Not as high as Sarah, the corpse witch-only after Rhodes' inquiry, it turned out that the corpse slave looked respectful, but her mage level was not low, as a necromancer. Sarah is now the least

There are forty-five levels, even higher than Marin and Selena, although she was cultivated as a liar's confidant, it is not surprising to have such strength. But if you look closely, if you do n’t count the little bubble gum and

These two canaries cheated. Only Marin and Selena have the forty level mage strength. Even the mages brought by the nobles and legions are mostly no more than thirty-five or sixty, and Sara is just a corpse slave.

It has a forty-fifth-level mage strength, and there are at least ten such corpses slaves beside each Lich. Compare the strengths of the two sides. Decided. If there were n’t two top players on his side, Rhodes promised that he would be

I am afraid that the level of casting will be over.

The only drawback is that although Sarah has a higher cast level, she has only a single method, and she basically only has necrotic spells. Also some alchemy, elemental methods

There is a small success, but it is just the lowest level of lightning chain and fireball. What surprised Rhodes, though, was that Sarah's alchemy level was not low. In the words of the player, the alchemy water of this corpse slave

Already reached the advanced alchemy. That's the level of an elite alchemist. But it is a matter of course to think about it carefully. The job of the corpse slave is to serve the Lich. But the Lich, as a dead person, does n’t need to eat, drink or sleep

By the way, the service and help of the corpse slave to the Lich is naturally in the processing of spells and the refining of alchemy. Since Sarah can be regarded as a corpse slave by the Lich, and she can also be an experiment for the corpse witch That Sarah ’s work

The work must have been excellent, otherwise the Lich would not have chosen her for such a major experiment.

Another unexpected delight came from this. As Collend's henchman Lich, Sarah was very happy with herself.

The various research plans, formulations, and techniques of the former owner are well known. Undead are very experienced in necromancy spells. Naturally, there is no need to say more. On the other hand, undead are in the potion-especially

The skill and the essence of poison is what Rhodes values. Undead have no morals at all, just as if they could use living humans like Sara to make corpses slaves, these undead creatures

Perform brutal experiments to obtain data to improve your own pharmaceutical formula and make improvements. These are hard to come by on the continent of light. Although on the land of light, there are some fallen black wizards and necromancers doing similar things.

Work, but they are a minority after all, and this kind of thing is extremely sinful, once they are found they are finished. But in the country of the night, the study of living beings is officially approved, and the Lich can be greatly shaken.

It was dissected and dissected to the slaves in the open-air square under Guangtianhua, even if they cut these poor creatures and sew them on, no one would have the slightest protest. .

And through such **** and cruel methods, the undead have also invented many unique skills, just like Sarah provided Rhodes with "the flesh of the flesh." It can only be made by using a small amount of herbs for refining.

Alchemy potion. As long as the wounded apply this medicine to the affected area, as long as it is not a life-threatening injury, it can be healed in a short period of time. It is simple and convenient, and cheap and easy to use.

About half. Rhodes naturally knew what kind of help this potion would have for the army-and, ironically, this potion was just a by-product of what Colund had researched by the way while experimenting with a flesh-erosion spell.

That's it.

Almost every one of these alchemy recipes provided by Sarah was filled with thousands of lives, but Rhodes naturally has no psychological pressure on this, anyway

Those who put them in the gas chamber or lined up for gunshots for [***] dissection are not themselves, and in literary terms, these are also human compatriots, and they have made all this in their own lives for the benefit of others. of

Humanity. It's not a sacrifice. So Rhodes asked Sara to copy the recipe of these alchemy potions, and then passed it on to Rabes, asking her to be responsible for the experiment. If it was useful, it was left.

Save. As for those poisons and some recipes that made Rabbis look at her heartbeat, Rhodes kept them secretly.

In fact, Rhode wanted to form an alchemy with Sara as the center.

As a team, Rabis's strength is unquestionable, but after all, she is pure and kind, which is a good thing. It's a bad thing. Alchemy potions can do a lot, and Rhodes is well aware of the Belhems.

There are many dark and evil things, the most famous of which is the housekeeping skills of the Belhems family. This is the origin of the Belhems family and the reason why the alchemy spirits parted ways with other elves. Berch

The Mums are best at transforming the human body. Rhodes doesn't believe that Rabis will know anything about it, anyway she is the last king who inherited all the knowledge of the Belhems, if the core secrets of the alchemist

I don't know if that's really strange. However, Rabis has kept silent about this and never used it. Of course, Rhodes does not believe she knows nothing. The only answer is that Rabis herself is very resistant to these things.

this. Rhodes was also embarrassed to force the other side to use it.

But Sara is different. Thanks to the Lich's blessing, this corpse slave does not have the moral concept on the continent of light, which seems to Marin and others.

Very cruel. But Rhodes needs such men. He lacks such a person now, but it is no wonder that when he grew up on the continent of light, he would always receive the teachings of human beings. Unless it's the kind who really wants to

Enemy, otherwise, even the robbers and bandits have a day of conscience. It is impossible to expect them to do wholehearted things for themselves. But Rhode knew it. This kind of thing is inevitable

of. It is as if Christie was attacked at the Midsummer Festival. If Rhodes does not take the kidnap of the other leader ’s son, it may not be easy to resolve. Every power has its bright and dark side, even Lidia ’s

There is also a terrifying secret intelligence unit under her control. Of course, this unit is not her direct subordinate, but Lydia also knows what the other party is doing. As for some things, she wo n’t do it, but it does n’t mean she does n’t

Let others do it-it's as if Rhodes made a sea of ​​fire across the plains during the civil war, and hundreds of thousands of people were slaughtered. Lydia must know this. It ’s inconvenient for her to do this kind of thing.

do.

Rhodes knows this, and even in his team, this contradiction still exists. For some of his actions, Marin and Anne would not support it, but also

No objection. And Lijie and Rabis are obviously very upset about this. Lando and Mafa are inconvenient to criticize the lord, while Sol and Joey are poor because of their affiliation.

Yes, but regular military officers like John are sometimes difficult to accept their ideas.

But Rhodes knew very well that his enemies were more than just immortality.

Army, he can almost be convinced that even the preparation for this is not just the war against the kingdom of night. The war with the kingdom of light will begin sooner or later, and at that time Rhodes will inevitably use some means of killing Ying Ye. These ones

He often used the means in the game, and the effect is very good. However, Rhodes also knows that players do more in the game because this is a game, and after all, npc is npc. In the eyes of players, npc is also good.

Mind has nothing to do with the relationship between reputation and rewards or tasks. For example, when Rhodes counterattacked the kingdom of light in the game, he led the player army to sweep from the rear, and gathered the country of light together with the player power and the npc.

The land was all turned into a sea of ​​fire. And the reputation of Rhodes and others in the kingdom of light naturally plummeted, from the original friendship directly to the hostility.

However, Rhode ’s reputation is also very unique-he directly led the player group to destroy the kingdom of light, completely destroying this power from the mainland, so Rhode ’s reputation column naturally no longer has the kingdom of light. "Hostile" prestige marks it.

Of course, from the player's point of view, the stark guild's refreshing bliss is nothing but **** in the eyes of npc. Rhodes and his team have been almost indifferent to life. Germany later even had an nickname between npc.

"Destroyer".

The only way to get the title through actions other than quests and prestige is only Rhodes in the entire game.

With their affection and loyalty to themselves, Rhodes does not doubt that they can do the same thing for themselves here. But after all, they are aboriginals of this continent, and they are more or less apostles anyway.

Moral education, this kind of thing can be done occasionally once or twice, and more will overdraw their feelings and trust. Rhodes knows this, and he hasn't seen some guys because of his stubborn opinions, which led to the rebellion.

——— In fact, it is because his subordinates cannot accept the values ​​of their respected superiors and masters.

In this way, subordinates like Sara who do not have "mainstream moral values"

It is very precious. She is in line with Rhode's requirements, and as a corpse slave, her every move is completely restricted by Rhode. Therefore, it will not break the spirit of the enemy and me like killing and killing like some murderers. So Rhodes

I also had the intention to save her to do something less serious and bright for myself, but unfortunately now I can only think about it. The angel army outside is still flying overhead, and Rod is not interested in being in his fort now Inside

Open up a second theater.

Thinking of this, Rhodes thought back. He snorted and sat in his chair, looking at the snow outside.

"The enemy's army is approaching. I can't see that the dead legion will advance too long. What do you guys think?"

"At present there is only solid defense."

Marily frowned, thinking for a moment, and then answering softly. Li Jie beside her nodded, and was now full of people in the large conference room. In addition to Rhodes, Marin, Lijie, and Annie have been following him.

Old man. There are also latecomers such as Joey, Lando, and Mapha, plus Yiqilian. Outside of the bug trio, which is dominated by Little Bubble Gum and Canary, is Sir Bayer and Frederick next to him. Selena and others, of course, that

Some noble and legionnaire representatives will naturally participate, in addition to the representative of the War Angels Beni.

The original quiet conference hall seemed a bit noisy at the moment because it was full.

After Rhodes spoke, everyone could not help lowering their voices and started talking to each other. Rhodes looked at the scene in front of him, only to feel that his lord had finally done something quite right at this time. Anyway now

He held a meeting and was able to convene so many people to discuss and research every word of himself. Now he finally understands why the big leaders on the earth are always three days, one small meeting, and five days one meeting-sometimes it seems Really

Cool.

"But Lord Lord, the information we have so far is incomplete, and we can't judge the number and strength of the enemies accurately by relying only on the report of that lady ..."

Frederick stood up and began to speak. When talking about Sara, the young knight turned his tongue and hesitated for a moment before finally continuing to explain.

"this is a problem."

Rhode nodded, which was what he was worried about. To be honest, Sara was arrested too early. It has been several days now, but the undead army still hasn't moved, which makes Luo even more De feel

heart. Generally speaking, no action is the best thing, but Rhodes knows that it is not so simple. Although the undead army is characterized by maneuvering, Rhodes also knows that some of the higher-order units belong to that kind of action which is particularly slow.

But attacking and defending abnormal monsters, such as flesh and blood, hate something, it is a hill that can move, and the skin is thick and thick. If the undead army has been stationed waiting for these really scary siege monsters to appear,

It is inevitable that he will be a little uneasy. Moreover, assessing the number of enemies is a very important thing, and it's not just about how long they can support.

However, Rhodes has never sent scouts to the other party. He knows that those undead creatures are insidious and sly, and he sends a personal person there. Once he is arrested, the situation in the fortress will be immediately known to the other party. Rhodes spent so much time cleaning up the enemy scouts.

"Any other questions?"

"This ......... with regard to supplies ..."

Rabbi raised her hands timidly, and saw the crowd looking at herself. The introverted alchemy elf with her surname could not help shrinking her body, and then hesitated to speak.

"This ... Lord Rhodes ......... We used to calculate enough, but now there are so many people in the fortress, this ... may be a little insufficient ..."

"With the Angels of War present, we can share some of our burden."

Rhode made a gesture to Rabis, begging her to be calm.

"Next we do n’t need to make more magic arrows, and we do n’t have time to do that, Rabis, from now on you can try to make more easily burnable things like oil, these things are simple, convenient, and And do n’t waste time and energy. "

"Okay, sir, I understand."

Hearing this, Rabis breathed a sigh of relief, then she nodded and sat down again. Then, another person stood up --- Bilan's heart was still lethargic. She reached out and pressed the heavy black book in front of her, narrowed her eyes, and yawned.

"As for the garrison ... Huh ... The integration was smooth. There were two army commanders helping to train, and the speed was much faster ... Huh ... Rest assured, Rhodes, this OK, no problem. "

"Sir, I think we should still investigate the status of the Undead."

Lando, who had been silent, finally spoke at this time.

"Now what many soldiers are most worried about is that we do n’t know the exact number of undead troops and their composition. The information that Miss Sara gave us is useful, but these are not enough. If I can, I can lead some elite, You can also ... "

"It's not that simple, Lando."

Rhodes waved his hand and interrupted Lando.

"The investigation of undead corps and the investigation of living people's armies are completely two concepts. The undead army is full of suffocation everywhere. Ordinary humans can't get in for a long time to support it. And once you are caught by them, even if they are only corpses, Undead can extract information from your brain and blood. Once they succeed, what we did before is completely useless. "

"....................."

Hearing Rhode's words, the atmosphere suddenly freezes, and many people's faces change slightly. They know that the undead creature is terrible, but did not expect the other party to be so terrible. If that's the case, then they send

Scouts used to detect the enemy ’s way, but they did not investigate ... How can we fight against an enemy who is discredited with two eyes? Knowing oneself and knowing the other can fight endlessly.

Limited, isn't it?

"Beni Corps."

Rhodes tapped his fingers on the table, raised his head after a moment of contemplation, and looked at the War Angel Legion, who had remained silent during this meeting.

"What's going on with the Angel of Dawn? Is there any change in the opponent's 'Front Banner'?"

If Rhodes has any investigative methods, the only thing that can be done is to rely on the strong vision of Angel Dawn to look out from a distance. However, such observations are ultimately limited, so Rhodes did not expect to rely on angels alone to obtain

Intelligence. In fact, the best way is to let these angels scout, but Rhode wants to save these ace cards to the last moment. To this end, he even asked Beni not to let the war angels hover in the air, and the magic fleet also let Luo

Germany quietly hid behind the ridge. Only the unexpected changes at the beginning of the confrontation between the two armies will change the direction of the entire battle situation, but if the opponent is prepared once, then his former achievements will be abandoned.

"So far, nothing has changed."

Beni slightly shook her head and replied.

If the flag does not move, it means that the other party is still in deployment, and even if it wants to start immediately, there is a minimum of three days of preparation period-Rhode is very familiar with the undead army, and naturally knows their military deployment and actions .

"I'll fix the scout problem."

In the end, Rhodes made up his mind and said.
