Chapter 172 - Chapter 3: The Undead's Strategy: Encircling and Attacking the Reinforcements (Part 1)

Legends are always mysterious. It is because of the legend that Giaglu lost his normal judgment ability. Is the young magic dragon really that scary?

The answer is no.

He didn't understand this magic dragon at all. If he had held on a little longer, or made a surprise attack, he would have gained a great advantage.

Not long after Giaglu disappeared, the mysterious and great magic dragon reappeared in its glorious prototype...but it looked a little drunk, staggering in the air and then crashed down.

Touch~~~

A young magic dragon has no idea what reservation is. Once it attacks, it will dump all the magic power in its body out all at once. Whether it can win or not is another matter. It just wants to enjoy itself first.

The ball, which had hit a small dent, returned to its original shape with a bump on its head. Before it passed out, it tried to crawl toward Caesar, blinking its big eyes. I don't know if it wanted to take credit or was hungry.

Masters like Caesar and Aries have extremely strong self-recovery abilities. Although the death energy invaded, the fighting spirit and magic power in their bodies were quickly repaired and eliminated. Soon Caesar and Aries woke up. Looking at the chaos and scattered magical aura around them, they didn't know what happened, but one thing was certain, someone saved them.

At this time, the ball stood up, shaking, trying hard to spray a few bubbles, and then kept pointing at itself with the tips of its wings, and then at them. Unfortunately, when Caesar saw a certain ball, he threw it directly into the package, and rushed out of the Ussuri Canyon at full speed with Ales. As long as he went out, he could use the space scroll.

On the other side, the Mermaid King City fell into a tense state that had not been entered for more than a hundred years. Since the redivision of the sea clan, there has been no such war. The Mermaid King City was actually surrounded by a large army of nearly one million Undead, and the Mermaid King City had only 200,000 regular troops, plus nearly one million residents in the city. Although they had an advantage in numbers, their combat effectiveness was different. The surrounding cities under the jurisdiction of the Mermaid King City could not get here for a while. The Undead used some unknown method to appear silently. The cities outside the king's city had been destroyed in an instant, and the Undead had almost no losses. This time, the Undead did not let the skeleton soldiers lead the way, but used the Terror Knights (the high-level state of the Undead Skeleton Knights). These knights swept through like a hurricane with neat human knight attack formations, leaving no grass behind. The huge knight's sword was the Grim Reaper's scythe that harvested lives. The resistance of ordinary races could not withstand the lightning attack of such high-level knights. Even if they escaped by chance, they would be followed by a large number of fully armed skeleton soldiers, which was suffocating.

Without reducing their marching speed, the Undead Army surrounded the Mermaid King City with their superior strength. The Mermaid King City, which had stood for nearly a thousand years, encountered its biggest crisis!

In the absence of His Majesty Aries, Queen Christina is the supreme commander. We have to admit that the queen is a true heroine. She is usually a gentle and affectionate mother, but at this time she is indeed a heroic commander. All legions entered the battle positions as quickly as possible. We have to thank the Shenyue War. After the baptism of war, the quality of the soldiers is very high. At one time, the sea people were very worried that humans would invade the sea people in some way, so the major royal families and cities conducted defense drills, and now they are all useful.

There are space turbulence barriers all over the royal city. Any troops that want to take advantage of the situation will be wiped out without a trace if they dare to get close, unless you are a space magician. If you want to enter at a low altitude, you will be greeted with countless magic.

The city walls and magic towers were immediately filled with soldiers. When the soldiers saw the endless army of undead, they were frightened. Undead...the rumors turned out to be true.

The walls of the Mermaid King City have become extremely solid after being built by successive mermaid kings. Knowing the weaknesses of magicians, they put more effort into defense. Both physical and magic resistance are second to none. The only entrance is the four huge city gates, but they are also heavily guarded and the whole city has been mobilized. This is the difference between the sea people and humans. Most human civilians are very weak, but the sea people still have some combat effectiveness. Although they cannot play a role in battle, it is enough for them to deal with the situation calmly and do a good job of logistics.

The students and adventurers of the academy are another force. If they encounter other enemies, the adventurers and mercenaries may still have some luck, but when they encounter the undead, there is absolutely no chance of luck. The only way out is to crush the enemy, so both sides were quickly organized into a team to participate in the battle at any time.

The Undead army stopped at a safe distance outside the city. Each group of Undead siege troops were preparing in an orderly manner. From time to time, tiny spots of phantom fire could be seen. Those were the death flames of the Undead Mages. It was obvious that the number of Undead Mages in this group of Undead troops was very terrifying. For the Life Clan, this was the most feared combination. As long as the Undead Mages did not die, the Undead troops could continue to regenerate. That was the source of their power.

Foldes led four undead knights to the front of the army and said, "Military and civilians of the Mermaid King City, we are servants of the great Undead Monarch Visdru. As long as you give up resistance and submit to us, the Undead Monarch will give you a free life. Of course, if someone wants to obtain eternal life, we will welcome them with open arms. Moreover, if you are unwilling to accept either of the two conditions, you can leave freely. The northwest direction is the road we have left for you."

Sure enough, in the northwest direction there was a passage left by the undead army. Christina was also extremely surprised by these undead. Last time they staged a palace coup, and now they are trying to play a strategy of division and disintegration... Are they undead or humans?

When did the undead become so scary! I'm afraid this kind of thinking is the truly scary thing. No matter how many brainless undead there are, they are just a mob.

"Don't listen to that guy's bullshit. The undead can be so considerate and the banshees can become innocent. How can this bunch of rabble be the opponent of our great sea people? Everyone, work harder and stew the bones tonight!"

Banshees are an outlier among the sea people, composed entirely of women. They are good at bewitching songs and illusions. Sea people and humans are often attracted to them, at the cost of their lives. If we only talk about singing, this race can be compared to the mermaids. Unfortunately, their lewdness is unbearable for other races, and even the sea people isolate them.

On the other side, Kao was already shouting at the top of his lungs. He had been authorized by Queen Christina to lead the organization of mercenary adventurers and the academy's warriors. Due to Kao's strength and status, no one had any objection to this.

Isa, Zhebe and Batti were also there. Of course, Isa was the actual leader when Caesar was not there. The two sentences that Kao yelled were also taught by Isa, but they were bolded by Kao.

Zhebie pulled out his golden arrow and aimed at the opponent from a distance. The undead was cunning enough to know how to stay out of the magician's shooting range. Even a powerful magician would not be able to snipe him from such a long distance.

These ghosts are completely human thoughts, how can they be preserved so completely? !

If the humans here saw this situation, they might think of something, but the sea people don't know as much about the undead as humans, nor are they as enthusiastic about it as some humans.

Zhebie's golden arrow has been pulled up, but there is no magic on it. Since the opponent is a wizard, if he uses a magic arrow, it will alert the enemy instead... Throwing a stone to scare the fish, not only the undead, but also the sea people themselves could not have thought of this. Only Kao and the others understood the terrifying nature of Zhebie, this taciturn man.

whoosh~~~

The sword shadow was almost invisible, and its speed was only a white water line. It was almost silent. The Undead Knight reacted quickly enough and almost instinctively blocked in front of Foldes, but Zhebie's arrow was faster. No one would have thought that there would be archers among the sea tribe, and such powerful archers at that.

The undead knights who are qualified to protect Foldes are not simple. They have more or less retained the memories of their previous lives. Unfortunately, the only thing they can do now is to rely on their immortal bodies to resist. The golden arrow penetrated two undead knights and exploded on the third undead knight, and the undead knight was blown to pieces.

Foldes retreated hurriedly. The sudden attack and explosion made him lose all his image, while the morale of the sea people was high. Foldes' face did not need to be gloomy as it was already gloomy enough. With a wave of his hand, the undead army began to move. The real attack began, and soon both sides were within range.

The magic tower of the Mermaid King City poured out countless magics, and the Necromancers also released various kinds of undead magic under the protection of the Undead Legion. The vanguard troops of the Undead Legion launched an attack on the city gate fearlessly. As long as the city defense is broken, it will mean the destruction of the Mermaid King City.

The key lies in the Mermaid King City, whether this so-called most powerful magic city of the sea clan is worthy of its name.

At some point Clara came up and walked to her mother's side. This was the first time she saw her mother as a commander. She was fascinated by her and she was like her idol.

"Clara, why aren't you with Alina to take care of her?"

"Mother, Nana's condition has improved a lot. Even with the imperial physician here, I can't help. Let me join the battle and fight against the evil undead."

Looking at her precious daughter's chivalrous appearance, Christine felt deeply moved. War was not as beautiful as imagined. Under her protection, Clara was far from understanding the cruelty of war.
