Mount & Blade: Wind of War

In the Castle of Lonely Mountain in the City of God's Blessing, in the Lord's Mansion.

The short-haired, white-skinned and beautiful Death Knight Ounira hesitated a little. Rhode had persuaded her, but although she felt that this deal was worth it, her mentor had a great reputation in her heart, so Ounira did not dare to make a decision easily.

Seeing this, Rhode did not force her, but waved to take back Konstart's body and chatted with Ounira about her experiences during this period.

Ounira was hesitant in her heart, so she didn't care much about telling her experiences during this period.

When she heard her last talk about being chased by several orc masters, Rhode frowned slightly, but he quickly recovered to normal and did not let Ounira notice.

"Since you are injured, Miss Ounira should rest here. If you need anything, please feel free to ask. I will definitely help you with what I can do."

Having said that, Rhode chose to get up and leave.

When he was about to walk out of the room, Ounila behind him suddenly said:

"Lord Rod Hart, I agree to the deal you proposed. Just use Konstart's body to exchange for the war chain in my hand."

In Ounila's view, Rhode's demand for the war chain was very normal.

He built a town like Lonely Mountain Castle in the wilderness. As long as he could defend it, the commercial taxes collected from the past would be a huge fortune.

In this case, the lower plane cracks appeared around the territory. As the lord of this place, it was normal for Rhode to urgently want a war chain.

"Well, have you made up your mind? Thank you so much, Ms. Ounila, for the Howling Mountains and the Lonely Mountain Castle, and for the friendship between you and me."

The Howling Mountains is a gathering place for necromancers, and the Lonely Mountain Castle is a blessed city protected by holy light. It stands to reason that the two sides should not have too close intersections, but in the context of the invasion of lower plane demons, Rhode believes that the undead can also be a force with which he can form an alliance.

After all, no one wants to see the demons of hell invade the human world on a large scale.

The dead/no regrets ring in Ounila's hand can also store corpses (but it has a corrosive effect on other storage objects), so the two handed over the war chain in one hand and handed over Konstart's body in the other hand, and the transaction was completed.

Then, after recuperating in Lonely Mountain Castle for a while, Ounila returned to the Howling Mountains to explain the situation to her master and mentor, the vampire Giovanni.

It should be noted here that although the Holy Grail has descended in Lonely Mountain Castle today, the power of the Holy Grail to expel chaotic evil is generated by transforming the power of people's faith. Most of the power of the descending Holy Grail is currently used to maintain the spatial stability within the territory of Lonely Mountain Castle, accelerate the recovery of spatial cracks, and also make the creatures of the lower plane unwilling to approach.

As for expulsion, it will be stronger on the weekly rest day (the day of the city lord's victory/the day of the Holy Grail's descent), but extraordinary people like Ounila just feel uncomfortable, and they can still bear it, and it will not cause any actual harm.

Of course, this is also because the total population of Lonely Mountain Castle is too small now.

After a while, Ounila successfully returned to the Howling Mountains, and in a stone chamber surrounded by dark poisonous fog, she met her master and mentor, the vampire Giovanni, again.

"Teacher, I'm back."

"Well, Ounila, you did a good job. The plane subsidence of the Wilderness has stopped. Lord Arantir praised you. I also want to reward you. This is indeed a good job."

"It is Ounila's honor to be able to work for the master. But..." Ounila saw that Giovanni seemed to be in a better mood, so she continued with a sentence.

"But what?"

Turning around slowly, the pale-faced man in a red-bottomed black cloak asked casually.

"Master, during this mission, I met Rodhart, the Lord of Lonely Mountain Castle. He used the body of Konstart, who had been transformed into a hell demon, to buy war chains from me. Considering that Konstart had a lot of remnants of hell knowledge on him, which might be of great use to you, I made this deal with him without authorization."

While speaking, Ounila summoned Konstart's body. She knew that once you have shot the arrow, there is no turning back, so she told him everything.

"There seems to be a divine artifact of the ancient sun god in Lonely Mountain Castle. I am worried that if time is delayed for a long time, the body will be completely destroyed, so I am eager to make a deal. If you feel that this deal is a loss, I am willing to return to Lonely Mountain Castle and retrieve the war chains for you."

While Ounila was speaking, sweat flowed from her cheeks to her temples. She knew how cold-blooded and cruel high-level necromancers and high-level vampires were, so she tried her best not to make any mistakes and was very thorough in her words.

"..."

Giovanni didn't say anything after hearing this, but raised his hand gently. A ghost naturally emerged from the ground beside Ounila, and moved the body of Constart, which had both demonic and human characteristics, to his side, and carefully observed it from top to bottom.

Although Constart's body had mostly recovered to human form after death, his internal organs had obviously been alienated. After so many days, a normal human corpse would have been somewhat corrupted even after being treated, but Constart's demonic body would not, and it was still the same as when he just died.

"Being able to kill Konstart shows that he has a good ability. Since the deal has been reached, there is no need for us to unilaterally break the contract. In the future, maybe I can use him..."

Hearing this, O'Nila subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew her mentor well. If this deal was not to his liking, he would definitely not be as easy to talk to as he is now. It is obvious that Konstart's body has a very high research value.

It is usually difficult for hell demons to be killed directly in the main material world, let alone such a newly transformed and extremely complete one. This body can allow Giovanni's research on death to go a step further.
