A few days later
The scourge Corps accelerated the speed of attacking cities and land, or to be exact, the speed of plundering people. The death knights divided into five teams and attacked the towns of several nearby territories. The dead did not need any food and money and were indifferent to the pleas of the living. However, soon after plundering more than 30000 people, the scourge Corps finally had to stop, The population of cities and towns with low defensive power has been evacuated. Although no cure for the plague has been found, the natural disaster plague spread through the river has also been cut off by the holy capital and the barreka kingdom. In addition, the holy capital has mobilized a large number of clergy to establish an isolation area. There have been several large-scale plagues in the west of the mainland before, The holy capital with handling experience acted very quickly this time. Therefore, after the initial raid was successful, the scourge Legion could not exploit the loophole.
Now, in the face of the barreka Kingdom, which has completely shrunk its defense line and territory, except for the positive initiative to attack the king * *, any sneak attack is basically impossible,
In the following period of time, the scourge Legion also tried to spread the scourge directly on the battlefield in the same way as before, but this time king valleka * * absorbed it! Top! Point! The novel learned the previous lesson. A large number of mages arranged a large border to block out all the natural disasters and plagues. During the attack, the priests of the holy capital cooperated to protect each soldier from this unknown plague.
Without the means of sneak attack, the scourge legion, which only relies on low-level undead creatures and even violent beasts, won the battle with minimal loss after fighting with the ballaike kingdom. The mages' large-scale killing magic can destroy the dead in pieces. Lightning, fireball and hail bombard the battlefield like raindrops. Even a small number of undead who could break through the fire blockade were soon crushed by the heavy infantry in formation, and the war situation was completely one-sided.
Alsace, who was watching the war from a distance, was not surprised by the result. Anyway, a small scourge force was originally used to test the other party's cannon fodder. It has to be said that the organized human army is much more difficult to deal with than those strong, cruel but mentally retarded barbarians.
"Go, the Scourge army can't compete with it now." Arthas said to the lich, and then turned his horse's head and left slowly surrounded by several death knights.
"This is only temporary, your majesty"
Alcalsas smiled and finally looked at the battlefield situation in the magic projection. The living just achieved a trivial victory, which didn't change anything.
The main force of the huge natural disaster Corps has temporarily retreated to the ancient battlefield in zedi. There are still a large number of dead bones to be transformed and a large number of facilities to be built. This time, the natural disaster Corps has collected a large number of fresh "materials". Some blood elf monks in the zedi are ready to make suture monsters. A new generation of natural disasters and plagues are also improving rapidly.
However, before the retreat, Alsace also left several death knights and led the dead cavalry to harass the barreka Kingdom everywhere. Even Alsace authorized them to cross the border with natural disasters and plagues to launch in neighboring countries. In short, let the land not stop and maintain a certain degree of chaos and killing. The rest will be handled by the demons hiding in the abyss.
When the Scourge army withdrew. King valleca has begun to sweep the battlefield. The undead doesn't know the fear. Even if the war situation has collapsed, these willless bones will still hold high weapons to kill each other until the soul fire in their body is completely extinguished. This characteristic made the encirclement and suppression of King valleca * * pay some price, but the advantage was that there was no need to worry about any fish missing.
"Be careful. Don't get close until you're sure that the undead is completely dead." The armored captain took a spear and cut off one corpse after another and ordered his men.
On the battlefield full of corpses, the soldiers carefully check each fallen corpse in groups of three. Once they find that there are still undead whose soul fire has not been completely extinguished, the soldiers will quickly make up a blow for them, so that these tragic souls can get a real rest from the torture of the necromancer, Of course, from time to time, some "pretending to be dead" souls will suddenly get up when the soldiers approach and attack with broken swords.
Suddenly, a group of soldiers found a skeleton with half broken body standing up. The soul fire in the pupil was about to go out, but the skeleton dressed in armor similar to fragments still came to them with a broken axe. The soldiers immediately raised their spears to pierce his head. It has been clearly proved on the battlefield that it is the best way to kill these undead and break their heads. When the soldiers were ready to start, a voice suddenly came.
"Stop first and leave the dead."
In the twinkling of an eye, the middle-aged man in blue robes appeared in front of the soldiers. Several soldiers did not even notice when the other party appeared, but after the other party showed a badge, the soldiers quickly saluted and retreated to one side. The emblem represents the holy capital, the existence of which even the king should be treated with courtesy in the west of the mainland.
The man exuded a strong momentum different from that of King valleca's army mage. When the undead approached, the mage just waved an invisible force to block all the movements of the undead. The skeleton soldier also maintained the posture of raising his weapons, making a click sound all over, but motionless. Regardless of the appalling posture of the dead, the male mage directly grasped the disclosure of the skeleton, and even pinched his fingers into the eye holes emitting the fire of the dark blue soul. Suddenly, a look of surprise flashed in the mage's eyes. It seemed that he was not sure. Generally, he closed his eyes and concentrated on induction.
In a strange situation that has never been seen before, the soul memory of the undead itself has completely dissipated, and even no memory has been left. However, it is inexplicable that the undead itself has retained a combat mode before separation, just like someone deliberately eliminated unnecessary souls and simply created a machine that only knows how to fight and kill.
"I'm looking for some residual undead. Don't be busy destroying them first. I'll study it further." While the male mage gave orders, he maintained the bondage to the dead in front of him.
The soldiers who received the order soon found several undead whose soul fire had not been completely extinguished. At the moment, the more the male mage checked, the greater the surprise in his heart. Almost every undead was in the same situation. The soul memory was completely eliminated and only the fighting instinct was retained. Looking at the thousands of dead remains on the battlefield, the male mage took a deep breath and was full of confusion.
Once life passes away, the soul will be inspired by the sea of souls. With the passage of time, the tough soul will gradually break and finally return to the sea of souls. In theory, most of the dead raised by the necromancer will lose some memories, including the skills of fighting. Sometimes the awakened undead will not blindly follow the orders of the undead mage. After all, these undead also have the residual obsession before they die. Some of the dead will try to go home and meet their relatives, some are driven by hatred to retaliate against their enemies, and some linger in their former homes like lost children
Sometimes, in order to ensure that the awakened undead does not betray themselves, the necromancer will deliberately eliminate the memory of these undead, and only let them retain the memory useful to themselves. However, it is very troublesome and time-consuming to eliminate the memory of the undead, Most of the time, necromancers will choose some high-level necromancers with relatively complete overall memory preservation to use this method. After all, low-level cannon fodder is dispensable, and there is no need to deliberately waste time. However, in front of the male mage, these low-level undead were all eliminated, and the memory in front of him only retained the instinct of fighting. You don't have to guess that all the tens of thousands of low-level undead here must be in this situation.
You're kidding! It takes at least hundreds of necromancers decades to complete the huge work to create so many souls whose memories have been eliminated. There may be such idle necromancers doing such boring work to eliminate the souls of tens of thousands of low-level Necromancers.
The male mage was silent for a moment and checked the soul of the dead again. Finally, the mage came to his conclusion that it should be right. Will there really be a group of dead mages to do such boring things? Or did the Necromancers on esolos Island find a new way to eliminate souls in large quantities.
"To capture these undead, I need to further study them."
The male mage's request made the soldiers a little embarrassed. After all, no one wanted to touch these filthy dead people, but the leader's commander did not complain and dissatisfied at all after getting the situation, and ordered the execution of the male mage's order at the first time. The soldiers had no choice but to find carts and ropes to tie the "living" corpses to the car. The male mage was not idle. He waved and put one of the most vigorous souls burning in the soul fire in a magic cage. With this cage, the mage quickly flew back to the nearest city.
Soon, the news of the victory of King valleca * * over the army of the dead soon spread all over the western continent. At this time, both the kingdom of valleca invaded by the dead and the holy capital need exciting news to alleviate the situation. Only in the holy capital, Saint flora is looking at a document angrily, and month priest grant is sitting aside at the moment, However, compared with the angry flora, the priest of the moon looked calm and drank the black tea poured by the next Saint phinalia.
Liangjiuflora put down the letter and took a few deep breaths before she finally calmed down. Finalia hurriedly helped her elderly adoptive mother sit down.
Month priest grant shook his head reluctantly at this time and said to flora, "Your Highness, it's time to make a decision. Now the situation has proved that conventional treatment is not good for these malignant tumors. It's time to cut them off and eliminate them."
Flora looked at grant in a very complicated mood, but looking at the contents of the letter, flora felt that the moon priest grant might be right (to be continued.)
