Chapter 360

Episode 360 Crisis in the Kingdom (2)

Ray looked down at the old man.

The desire to capture them like this is like a chimney, but it takes too long to subdue and take them away.

If, as the old man said, something truly unstoppable had happened to the kingdom, it could be said to be a desperate crisis.

He thrust all the stone spears worth over a hundred units into the old man’s small body.

In the end, the old man, who was barely surviving with Magi, passed away.

Ray had no intention of ending Iriel’s revenge here.

“If I catch a minnow and finish it, Iriel can’t close his eyes because he feels unfair.”

It didn’t seem like her resentment would be relieved even if she just caught and killed one of them.

He looked at the old man’s corpse with cold eyes and fired the model.

“The enemy is coming!”

The knights frowned when the soldier who hurriedly ran in gasped for breath.

What kind of people with swollen livers would go to war against the Holy Kingdom?

A knight rose from his seat.

“Are you sure?”

“Woe for sure! I couldn’t measure the exact number... but it’s well over 15,000!”

“what!”

The expression of the knights changed at once when they said that the number would exceed 15,000 even if they were estimated.

The captains of the knights each nodded and exchanged opinions.

“Gather your soldiers and prepare for battle!”

“All right!”

The army with the black flag did not come from one place.

The number of people who were afraid to fight was herded around Selonia.

Thanks to that, all the castles located in the vicinity of Selonia went into battle.

Zeke and Eucliwood, who had been called out from waiting at the mansion, had a serious conversation.

“...the atmosphere is unusual. It seems that the people the lord said moved.”

“According to the known information alone, the enemy’s army is over 60,000. If you react carelessly, you will be pushed back in an instant.”

Zeke stuck out his tongue at her words.

60,000 people is the level of a small and medium-sized kingdom that has decided and raised an army.

In addition, only the known information so far is 60,000 people. It was unknown how many more would join the war in the future.

It’s not something to be rushed into.

It wouldn’t have been an attack in a state that was green enough to block it without any plan.

Zeke, who was wearing plate armor, looked out the window.

Outside, the enemy’s momentum was high enough that you could guess the number with just a glance.

Do I have to go and fight against those things?

Before I lost my will to fight, I lost my sense of wonder.

“It’s like going to commit suicide.”

“I heard that Zeke learned from the Holy Son.”

“It’s true that I was taught by the lord...but I haven’t heard of a way to come back alive after charging into something like that.”

It’s such a number that you can’t even see the ground.

If a fierce battle broke out, even he could not know where he would be swept away.

Eucliwood glanced at him and said:

“There is no reason to be alive if you cannot overcome the precious teachings.”

“...”

“You must win.”

It will be her own encouragement.

But what does it mean to feel the sincerity in the tone of speech?

Zeke put the cloak on his back and answered briefly.

“okay.”

It would be a lie if I said that I was not afraid of facing an army of 60,000, but it was inevitable to protect my country.

Sometimes, even if you don’t want to fight, innocent people lose their lives if you don’t stand up on the battlefield.

I wanted to save more people and needed to make a choice to save those closer to me.

He moved towards the battlefield.

Countless lives were at stake on that one back.

Blind faith, which can be said to be the strong point of the Holy Kingdom, showed its true value.

Even though he knew he would die, he did not hesitate to lose his life with a happy heart, so the war situation that seemed to be pushed back was maintained even a little.

Seeing this, the commanders became even more confused.

Something boiled in my chest.

The followers and comrades who have shared the joys and sorrows together are disappearing.

The atmosphere was naturally heightened.

He raised his sword high in anger and shouted at the top of his voice.

“Judge those heretics who dare to stand against the goddess!”

“Kill them all!”

Kwaaaang-!

Only 7,000 soldiers were holding out against 60,000.

The knight leader inserted his sword into the waistband.

“Are you going too?”

At the words of the powerless Marquis, he just smiled.

“My subordinates are working hard, so how could I be left behind?”

“...I’m sorry I have no choice but to watch from afar.”

“If even the Marquis goes to the front line, the chain of command will be ruined.”

Respond with a silent nod.

The captain gave a short bow and left for the battlefield.

Now, the only things left on the wall were the Magic Corps and Marquis Harold.

The Paladins were determined to die in battle, but the results were insignificant.

The number of enemies was too many.

They are half gone, but the corpses are still uncountable.

They slowly pushed towards the gate.

It was not enough to block the corpses running at the end of human-made tactics.

“I can’t stop you.”

“Gaia-sama... please give us strength...!”

They called out to the goddess with a desperate heart, but the goddess’ hand did not reach them.

Giving up one’s life was something I had already prepared for.

As I raised my sword to block the dead bodies right in front of me, a young man wearing a robe decorated with black fur came down in front of me.

He stared straight ahead with a careless gaze.

“They are surprisingly fragile.”

Pure demonic energy of high purity flowed from the lich’s hand.

As soon as it exploded on the ground, the pitch-dark darkness swallowed up all the corpses.

“Kuaaa!”

“Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..”

The corpses, which seemed to exceed 3,000, disappeared in an instant.

The soldiers who thought it was the end opened their mouths.

So far, only the saints have shown this level of deity.

The lich waved his hand again, not minding them.

It was a light hand movement, as if to drive away flies.

As Magi spread shallowly through the air, undead soldiers slowly appeared in the darkness.

“Kuaaaaa!”

“Kiaaaaaagh!”

A group of dead appeared along with the screams of the ghosts.

It was the appearance of the Necromancer, who was said to have closed the era of magic in the past.

It is also an undead force summoned by a lich called No life king, who is not even an ordinary warlock.

Undead queens and Death knights riding on skeleton chariots were summoned en masse.

Dullahan, who radiated black eyes, scanned the corpses in front of him.

Whoa-!

The pier fired by the undead soldier broke the momentum of the corpses.

The troops of the Holy Kingdom, which had been pushed back so far.

In front of it, an army of undead numbering more than 10,000 appeared one by one from the shadows.

The lich, who was watching with his arms crossed in the center, sneered at the corpses.

“I’ll let you experience what true undead is like.”
