Otherworldly White Dragon Lord

Chapter 378: This Is Only A Temporary Victory

In a few days┉┉

The Scourge accelerated the speed of siege and plunder, or to be precise, the speed of plundering the population. The Death Knights divided into five teams and attacked the towns in several nearby territories. The undead did not need any food and money to live. Begged to remain indifferent, but soon the Scourge finally had to stop after plundering more than 30,000 people. The population of the towns with lower defenses has been evacuated. Although no cure has been found for the plague, it spread through the river. The plague of natural disasters was also cut off by the Holy Capital and the Kingdom of Barleka. Not only that, the Holy Capital also mobilized a large number of clergy to establish a quarantine area. There have been several large-scale plagues in the western part of the mainland before, and the Holy Capital has experience in dealing with it. The action was very quick this time, and for this reason, the Scourge could not take advantage of the loopholes after the initial raid was successful.

Now facing the kingdom of Balleka, which has completely shrunk its defenses and land, except for the Scourge to take the initiative to attack the king, any sneak attack is basically impossible.

In the next period of time, the Scourge also tried to spread the plague of natural disasters directly on the battlefield in the same way as before, but this time King Balaika learned from the previous lessons, and a large number of mages arranged a large enchantment to control natural disasters. The plague was completely blocked, and the priests of the holy capital cooperated with each soldier to protect against this unknown plague.

Without the sneak attack method, the Scourge Corps, which only relied on low-level undead creatures and even violent beasts, did not deploy. After the battle with the Ballaik Kingdom, the opponent won the battle with minimal losses.The large-scale killing magic of the mages can destroy the undead that rushed up in pieces, and lightning, fireballs, and hail bombed the battlefield like raindrops.Even a small number of undead that could break through the fire blockade were quickly crushed by the lined up heavy infantry, and the battle situation was completely one-sided.

Alsace, who was observing the battle from a distance, was not surprised by the result. Anyway, a small natural disaster force was originally used to test the opponent's cannon fodder.It has to be said that compared to fighting the Ogbarbarians, the organized human army is indeed much more difficult to deal with than those strong, brutal but low-intelligence barbarians.

"Let's go, the Scourge is still unable to contend with it head-on." Arthas said to the lich on the side, and then turned his horse's head to the side, surrounded by several death knights and slowly left.

"This is only a temporary majesty┉┉"

Akal'thas smiled and finally glanced at the battlefield situation shown in the spell projection. The living had only achieved a trivial victory, which could not change much.

The main force of the huge Scourge Army temporarily retreated to the ancient battlefield in Zedi, where there are still a large number of dead bodies that need to be transformed, and a large number of facilities need to be built. This time the Scourge has collected a lot of fresh'materials'.Some blood elves acolytes in Zedi have already made preparations to make suture monsters.The new generation of natural disasters and plagues are also rapidly improving.

However, before the retreat, Alsace also left several death knights leading the skeletal cavalry to harass the kingdom of Balleka, and even Alsace authorized them to carry the natural disasters and plagues across the border to neighboring countries for launching. Simply put, let this land not be used. Pause and keep a certain amount of chaos and killing.The rest will be handled by the demons hiding in the abyss.

After the disaster army evacuated that day.King Balekar has begun to sweep the battlefield.The undead doesn't know that even if the battle situation has collapsed, these unwilling bones will still raise their weapons and rush towards the opponent until the soul fire in their body is completely extinguished.This feature has cost King Balekar's encirclement and suppression, but the advantage is that there is no need to worry about any fish slipping through the net.

"Be careful. Don't come near until you are sure that the undead is completely dead." The armored captain took a spear and intercepted corpses one after another and told his men.

On the battlefield full of corpses, the soldiers in groups of three carefully inspected the remains of each fallen undead. Once found that there are still undead whose soul fire has not been completely extinguished, the soldiers will quickly make up for it. Let these tragic souls escape the torture of the Necromancer and get a real rest. Of course, from time to time, there will be some "playing dead" undead who will suddenly rise up and attack with tattered swords when soldiers approach.

Suddenly a group of soldiers found a skeleton with half of its body broken not far away, staggeringly standing up, the soul fire in the pupils was faintly extinguished, but the skeleton still wearing armor that was almost as fragmented Walking towards them holding a broken axe.The soldiers immediately raised their spears to pierce his head. On the battlefield, it has been clearly proved that to kill these undeads, breaking their heads is the best way, and a voice suddenly came when the soldiers were about to move.

"Stop first and leave this undead."

In a blink of an eye, a middle-aged man in a blue robe appeared in front of the soldiers. Several soldiers looked face to face. He didn't even notice when the other party appeared. However, the soldiers quickly retired after the other party showed an emblem. To the side.That emblem represents the holy capital, the existence that even the king must be treated courteously in the western part of the mainland.

The man exuded a powerful aura that was different from that of King Balekar’s army mage. When the undead approached, the mage just waved an invisible force and blocked all the movements of the undead. This skeleton soldier still maintained the ability to raise the weapon. The posture made a creaking sound all over but stayed still on the spot.In spite of the terrifying posture of the undead, the male mage directly grabbed the reveal of the skeleton, and even pinched his fingers into the pair of eyes that exuded the dark blue soul fire. Suddenly a look of surprise flashed in the mage’s eyes, as if I'm not so sure that I usually close my eyes and focus on my mind.

In a peculiar situation that has never been seen before, the soul memory of the undead itself has completely dissipated and even no memory is left, but it is inexplicable that the undead itself retains a part of the combat methods in front of him, like being deliberately Eliminating unnecessary souls simply created a machine that only knows how to fight and kill.

"Looking for a few remaining undead, don't be busy destroying them, I want to study it further." The male mage issued the order while maintaining the bondage of the undead in front of him.

The soldiers who received the order quickly found several undead whose soul fire had not been completely extinguished. At this moment, the more the male mage checked his heart, the greater his surprise. Every undead was in almost the same condition, and the soul memory was completely eliminated and only retained. Down with the fighting instinct.Looking at the thousands of undead remains on this battlefield, the male mage took a deep breath and was filled with confusion.

Once life is gone, the soul will be inspired by the sea of ​​souls. With the passage of time, the tough souls will gradually shatter and eventually return to the sea of ​​souls. In theory, most of the undead resurrected by the necromancer will lose some of their previous lives. Memory, which naturally includes fighting skills.Sometimes the awakened undead will not obey the Necromancer's orders blindly. After all, these undead also have persistent obsessions during their lifetime.Some undead will try to return home to meet their relatives, some undead will be driven by hatred to avenge their enemies before their lives, and some will wander in their homes before their lives like lost children. ┉┉

Sometimes, in order to ensure that the awakened souls do not betray themselves, the Necromancer deliberately removes the memories of the undead, and only allows them to keep the memories useful to them, but it is very troublesome and time-consuming to remove the memories of the undead. Most of the time, the Necromancer will choose some high-level undead who have relatively complete overall memory preservation and wake up to become more powerful. After all, low-level cannon fodder is optional, and there is no need to deliberately waste time.However, these low-level undeads in front of the male mage's eyes were all eliminated. The memory in front of him only retained the instinct of fighting. You don't need to guess or know that all the low-level undeads falling here must be in this situation.

What a joke!It takes at least a few hundred necromancers to complete the huge work that has been done by hundreds of Necromancers for decades to create so many undead who have been removed from memory. Then there may be such idle Necromancers doing such boring work. Thousands of low-level undead souls are eliminated.

The male mage was silent for a while and then checked the soul of the undead in front of him. In the end, the mage came to his conclusion that it should be correct. Will there really be a group of undead mages to do such boring things?It is still said that the necromancers on the island of Isolos have found a new way to remove souls in large quantities.

"To capture these undead, I need to conduct further research on them."

This request of the male mage made the soldiers a little embarrassed. After all, no one wanted to touch these filthy dead people, but the commander of the leader did not complain or dissatisfied after receiving the situation, and ordered the execution of the male mage's order in the first place.The soldiers had no choice but to find pallets and ropes to tie the remains of the'alive' undead to the cart with difficulty. The male mage did not idle, waved one of the most vigorous undead who burned the soul fire. Packed in a magical cage, with the cage mage quickly flew back to the nearest city.

The news of King Balleka’s victory over the undead army soon spread throughout the western continent. At this time, both the kingdom of Balleka and the Holy Capital that were invaded by the undead needed an exciting news to ease the situation. It’s just that in the sacred city, Saint Flora looked at a document upright and annoyed, and Moon Priest Grant was sitting aside at the moment, but compared to the annoyed Flora, Moon Priest looked calm and relaxed. Drinking black tea poured by the next saint Finalia.

For a long time, Flora put down the letter and took a few deep breaths before finally calming down. Feinalia hurriedly helped the elderly adoptive mother to sit down.

Moon Priest Grant shook his head helplessly at this time and said to Flora: "His Royal Highness should make a decision. The current situation has proven that conventional methods are not good enough to treat these malignant tumors. It is time to clean them up. ."

Flora looked at Grant with mixed emotions, but looking at the content of the letter, Flora felt a little bit at the moment that Grant, the priest of the moon, might be right. (To be continued...)
