Lord of War

   Kozilek waved the huge epee in his hand.

  Just listen to the howling wind and thunder suddenly sound, like thunder on the ground. Immediately afterwards, within a fan-shaped range of several tens of meters in front of Kozilek, the entire space produced a strong sloshing, and there were even cobweb-like cracks faintly emerging in the air, which obviously caused the space to oscillate.

   But this blow, the effect is equally obvious.

  All the skeletons gathered in the area were shattered and turned into powder.

  It was just a blink of an eye, and a thick layer of bone meal was already spread on the ground.

  However, this fan-shaped area showing a vacuum state only lasted less than a second before being filled with countless skeletons.

  If you look down from the sky, you can see that the entire forest of sighs has been submerged by a white ocean of skeletons. And in this ocean, Cecilia and others protected by Kozilek and Rena are like the lone boat floating with the waves of the ocean. Although they are struggling hard and stubbornly, trying to break through the encirclement of this sea of ​​skeletons, but this seemingly endless sea of ​​skeletons also forces a strong like Kozilek to be unable to easily break through.

  It’s not that Kozilek can’t break through and leave, but that he can’t protect everyone from leaving safely, even if Rena, who is not inferior to the super strong, is assisting, the result is the same. Because at the moment they are surrounded by Kozilek and others, it is not only these skeletons that even make them difficult-although these skeletons are not ordinary low-level undead, but up to the fifth-order bone warriors-there are also countless hidden in the dark. Of other undead creatures.

If Kozilek and Rena want to break through and leave, they can't go, but they lose the protection of these two strong men, even if there are still two in the team, Cecilia and Angel, which cannot be considered as a general sanctuary. The strong, the final result of this team is still unable to escape the fate of being buried here.

"What the **** is going on!" Angel's face was full of surprise, "How could it suddenly become like this! ... We have been trapped here for five days. If this continues, even if we are not energetic, Then he fell."

  Cecilia rarely quarreled with Angel, but her face was also not much better. Especially when she is a magician, or a magician who specializes in fire magic, when the entire forest of sighs is filled with these undead creatures. She directly expanded the domain and urged Solomon's Seventy-two Heavy Flame to the extreme. Basically, in the first two days, Cecilia had torn out a safe road alone.

  After all, the flame and the holy light have always been hailed as the two most powerful killers against the undead.

  It’s just that even if the magician of the middle sanctuary uses magic continuously, he will always be exhausted. Cecilia is in such a state at this time. If it weren’t for some potions that Sean deliberately collected for Cecilia before, Cecilia would have been overpowered by magic and energy. I fainted due to consumption.

   "It's a wave of death." Dini answered for Cecilia.

  Originally. As the servants and representatives of the gods in the world. It should be able to cause great damage to such undead creatures. However, Tini is not a priest or priest who uses divine arts as the main means of combat, but a special profession that uses martial arts as the main method and divine arts as a supplement. The combat effectiveness is extremely limited, and it is not much better than others.

   "This is impossible, why is there a sudden wave of death!" Angel's face was incredulous.

  As a millennium covenant empire living next to the black soil, it is not unfamiliar with the outbreak of the death wave, although the specific conditions for its occurrence are unknown. But after so many years, some considerable laws have been mastered. At least the interval between the outbreak of the death wave is generally about 20 years, even if there is a sudden inducement that leads to the accelerated formation and outbreak of the death wave. The interval is definitely more than ten years. After all, even undead creatures cannot be born out of thin air, but also require a birth process.

The reason why the Zoranton family can become the strongest family in the southern part of the empire is because at that time, in a disaster that erupted in a death wave, the Zoranton family, who had taken over the leadership of the Zoranton family, was not like other southern nobles. So when the death wave broke out, he immediately chose to withdraw, but organized a force through its influence, and then successfully resisted this death wave under his command. The result not only did not allow the disaster to expand further, but instead preserved the vital power of the army and nobles in the southern part of the empire, including the Zoanton family, and laid the foundation for the second wave of death afterwards.

  At that time, Puhuus was only twenty-five years old.

  Through this command and operation, Puhughes demonstrated amazing military qualities, which made him soon become a powerful nobleman in the south of the empire. And the important battle that drove him to become the Duke of the Empire was also the eruption of the death wave—the second death wave erupting less than ten years after the last death wave eruption. It’s just that compared with ten years ago, the scale of the death wave this time was much smaller, and the power that Puhughes could use was much larger, so this time the death wave disaster did not even have any impact on southern Xinjiang. It's completely over.

  The land of black soil is located in the southeast of the Millennium Covenant Empire. In fact, more areas are bordered by the eastern frontier of the empire. Therefore, when the death wave erupted, the most affected and affected area was naturally the eastern part of the empire, followed by the southern part of the empire. It’s just that every time a wave of death erupts, almost the entire southeast of the empire will be destroyed. So about every 20 years or so, the Millennium Covenant Empire will bleed heavily, which to a large extent limits the Millennium Covenant Empire. The development of comprehensive national strength.

  It’s just that this time the tide of death was blocked when Phughus was driven to the south and was affected, saving a lot of losses for the empire. For this reason, the empire integrated the most prosperous counties of Hamburg, Greater Serem, Little Serem, and Southern Hesse into the Duke of Hamson, and gave it to the Zoranton family as a hereditary duke, and Purhus Zoranton became the first Duke of Hamson and commanded the southern front of the empire.

  After this, the fifty-five-year-old Duke of Hamson, Phughes Zoranton finally ushered in the third death wave in his life. It should have been a death wave that only broke out every twenty years or so, but it has erupted three times in a row in a short period of thirty years. Although this third death wave erupted twenty years after the second, it was a normal eruption with sufficient accumulation.

  But in contrast, Puhuus Zoranton has become the Duke of the Empire, and at the same time he is in charge of all the military forces in the southern part of the Empire. So in terms of contending, compared to the one twenty years ago. The cards Phughes Zoranton have are naturally more beautiful.

  And this duke. It did not disappoint the empire.

  The death wave broke out this time, and it only caused a small impact in the eastern part of the empire and was successfully prevented. Although almost a quarter of the eastern part of the empire has fallen, it can be regarded as a glorious victory compared to at least a half of the area that has been affected by disasters over the years. After that, the Duke of Puhuus, who had found quite regularity and experience, also wrote a related survey report on the land of black soil and the forest of sighs, and then every three years. The duke will organize a large-scale sigh forest expedition. Exterminate these undead in large numbers.

  As a result, it directly made the entire southern and eastern parts of the empire peaceful for thirty years.

  Even the Millennium Covenant Empire believes that the death wave that has plagued the empire for thousands of years has been put to an end by Purhus Zoranton.

  But Angel did not expect that a death wave that had not erupted for 30 years would actually break out at this moment! Moreover, both the scale and the quality far exceed all records in the history of the millennium covenant empire-the vanguard of the death wave has always been the lowest level of skeletons, occasionally mixed with skeleton warriors, zombies, etc. Undead units. Only when enough materials have been accumulated to start large-scale raids on villages and towns will more advanced undead creatures be born. And powerful undead creatures like some black warrior, bone mage, black knight, etc. Only after encounters with the armies of the Millennium Covenant Empire will it begin to be born.

In addition to paying a huge price when Phughes Zoranton ended the death wave for the first time, in the next two fights and the death wave disaster, he was before the death wave formed a huge scale and sufficient quantity and quality of troops. , It will completely kill all of this. The facts have also proved that Duke Puhuus's approach is very correct. Although the results of the battlefield casualties after the incident are bright red and glare, it is undoubtedly brilliant in terms of merit.

   But this time, sighing, the people who gathered in the forest and acted as the vanguard of the death wave disaster are the bone warriors!

  Bone Warriors are powerful undead units between Tier 5 and Tier 6.

  They are wearing armor, holding a shield, holding a series of heavy weapons such as epee, machete, and heavy axe that require a certain amount of strength to be used. In terms of arms occupations alone, the bone warriors are equivalent to the heavy infantry arms of the human world. They not only have excellent defensive capabilities, but are also unambiguous in terms of offensive capabilities. It can be said that these types of arms already possess a considerable degree of attack capability. .

  Even in the undead army, bone warriors are not used as cannon fodder.

But now, Angel’s vision of these skeletons that look no different from skeleton soldiers are all bone warriors, and there are even many bone demons among them-these are standard Tier 6 undead creatures, they have more than bone warriors. More powerful combat effectiveness, and also has a certain degree of command ability, it can be regarded as the middle-level commander in the undead army who is specially responsible for commanding the undead creatures such as bones and skeletons.

  According to Angel's understanding of the death wave and related experience, the undead forces gathered in the sigh forest generally act as the vanguard of the death wave disaster. In the history of the Millennium Covenant Empire, the vanguard of the death wave disaster is composed of countless cannon fodder skeletons or walking corpses. Even after capturing a large number of villages and towns and obtaining enough corpses, they may not be able to see them. To the skeletal warrior, let alone the skeletal demon.

  Because the highest-order undead creatures that have appeared in the past are the sixth-order black knights. Although the black knights already have a certain degree of thinking and IQ, they are not good at commanders after all. They are all known for their powerful combat effectiveness, so basically every so-called death wave disaster is just a goalless destructive action.

   But now, the death wave vanguard gathered in the forest of sighs unexpectedly appeared bone demons, even those who are slow to react know that their nature is completely different!

  The undead army under the command of a commander and the undead army without the command of a commander are basically two concepts!

  Angel could not imagine. If in the tide of death that erupted in the past few decades, when undead creatures with powerful combat effectiveness and commanding capabilities such as bone demons appeared from the beginning, would the eastern and southern parts of the Millennium Covenant Empire still be able to defend it? You must know that the destruction and influence formed by the undead army of the commander like this can be called a real death wave—the so-called death waves before can not be called death at all in the strict sense. tide. It can only be said to be a disaster raging by the undead.

   "This is a real death wave disaster." Cecilia said weakly. In the past few days, her consumption has been too great, "Miracle Continent hasn't happened for almost a thousand years, right."

"Accurately speaking, it is three thousand five hundred years." Angel looked very depressed. It seems that she also knows what this means. "In the archives of the empire, there are all records about the death wave. The last time was OK. The real disaster called the death wave was three thousand five hundred years ago, when the empire paid a great price to kill a lich and a large number of necromancers and necromancers. But that time the empire also paid a lot. A heavy price...Why is it so at this time..."

  Cecilia looked at Angel with some sympathy.

  Because she knows. What does Angel mean by "this time"?

  The last real death wave disaster. The millennium covenant empire was not in civil strife and division, but the millennium covenant empire also paid a very heavy price. This time, the Millennium Covenant Empire is in a civil strife. Although the civil strife has been basically calmed down, the previous internal friction losses still exist, and it is impossible to recover without a few years of recuperation.

  At this time, a real death wave disaster broke out, for the Millennium Covenant Empire, it is undoubtedly a major blow to the worse.

   "It seems. Those undead creatures are not ready to attack." Rena, who has been silent and only responsible for killing the enemy, said suddenly.

"What's the use? There are bone demons. They will definitely not let us leave easily." Angel forcefully cheered up, but the despair in her eyes was clearly visible, "We can't leave here, we can't pass the message of death wave disaster. Go out. So according to the empire's response measures, they will only treat it as an ordinary undead raging, and when they find that something is wrong, it will be too late."

   "So, we have to leave here!" Cecilia said in a deep voice.

   "You mean..." Angel froze for a moment, and then her eyes became firm, "You are right, then...who will break through?"

   "There is only Kozilek."

  Cecilia glanced at Kozilek. This little guy, with a posture of being a man, can easily solve all the nearby undead, and it looks extremely relaxed. However, after hearing Cecilia's voice, the little guy turned his head and looked at Cecilia, with a dazed expression in his eyes.

   "Kozilek, I have one thing to ask you."

  Cecilia opened his mouth and said to Kozilek, the meaning of the words was naturally that he hoped that Kozilek would break out immediately and tell the outside world what happened here. Of course, Cecilia did not forget Kozilek’s inability to speak, so she deliberately entered a piece of information into a magic stone crystal. As long as Kozilek handed this magic stone crystal to someone else, she would be able to immediately learn about it. condition.

   However, what Cecilia didn't expect was that after Kozilek listened, he turned his head and continued to compete with the undead, and had no intention of leaving at all.

  At this moment, everyone present fell into silence for a while.

Only Rena sighed helplessly: "It seems that this little guy will not leave. He should only obey the orders of Lord Shaun, unless you follow Miss Cecilia." (To be continued~ ^~)
