Chapter 428 Anyway, here I come (5000!!)

The Kingdom of Bolen and the Kingdom of Lensa certainly did not expect that even if they did not pay Rand for his attendance, he would still go to resolve the undead disaster on Line of Defense No. 1.

Rand could not tolerate the threat of the undead getting too close to his territory.

After successfully summoning the bone dragon, Rand began to organize the team and set off.

Rand was not sure about the specific strength of the undead in the First Line of Defense, so he brought all the high-level people in the hideout with him.

And Karin.

Karin will be there, of course.

As for the bone dragon, a three-headed bone dragon was cruising above the clouds.

Rand ordered the three-headed skull dragon to hide in the clouds so it could swoop down and fight at any time.

Rand didn't bring many people with him.

Therefore, the march was very fast.

A few days later, they met envoys from the Kingdom of Bolun and the Kingdom of Lensa on the land of the Kingdom of Bolun.

They stayed in a conspicuous castle, preparing to extort money from Rand and kept it in the castle.

In the absence of a basis of trust, we must of course be cautious.

If Rand brings a group of rabble to participate in destroying the undead stronghold, then these benefits will naturally not be given to Rand.

But now it seems that I was worrying too much.

The envoys from the Kingdom of Bolen and the Kingdom of Lensa looked at Rand's team.

A knight in well-armored armor, riding a mount with a bull's head and a horse's body.

The mounts are also armed to the teeth.

Furthermore, those in the front of the team, wearing black cloaks, are probably powerful professionals.

"Sir Rand," an envoy said, "Please go to the front. Our people are right in front. We will also set off to your territory with the money we promised you."

Rand nodded. It seemed that at this time, the Kingdom of Bolen and the Kingdom of Lensa had no intention of playing tricks.

Rand set out with his knights.

They are all powerful ox and horse riders selected from the best, as well as the top leaders of the hideout and Karin.

The Kingdoms of Borun and Lensa also sent powerful warriors, mages, and elite knights to participate in this operation.

Rand frowned, then asked, "What is our plan?"

Now there is a question, who will command this team.

Are you comfortable accepting the command and dispatch of people from other countries? This operation is bound to be full of crises.

The people of the Kingdom of Bolun and the Kingdom of Lensa obviously knew very well that it was impossible for them to trust each other and work together.

"We can just split into three groups and attack the undead from three directions." A middle-aged man from the Kingdom of Lensa said.

It can be seen that this middle-aged man holds a very high position in the Lensa Kingdom team.

"Okay." Rand agreed.

It would be much more convenient for Rand if they could act separately. In this case, he could use many of his evil methods without restraint.

The people of the Kingdom of Bolen had no objection either.

Apparently, the strong men and elite knights of the Bolen Kingdom were also worried that people from other countries would fall behind.

They are not people who look down on the Kingdom of Rensa or Rand.

It's just that there is really no room for adjustment between each other and it's impossible for them to cooperate.

Of course, we may not necessarily think highly of the strong people from other countries.

The elite and elite who are selected to perform dangerous missions always think that they are the protagonists.

The reason why many powerful people are willing to cooperate may be just because of the arrangements of the king and the nobles.

Rand couldn't tell what she was thinking, at least during their brief contact.

After deciding on the plan, the three groups of people each chose a route and headed towards the Bolen Kingdom's No. 1 defense line.

The closer we get to the Bolen Kingdom's No. 1 Defense Line, the darker it gets.

It was a wilderness shrouded in death. A half-built obsidian tower stood on the horizon like a lonely giant.

The surrounding area is dominated by corruption and death. The air is filled with death. The wild grass and dead trees whisper in the wind, as if telling of the tragic battle that once took place here.

Rand knew a thing or two about the battle here through spies stationed in the Kingdom of Bolen.

The Kingdom of Borun is also a powerful country. If naval power is taken into account, it is only slightly weaker than the Kingdom of Frost Moon.

The army of the Kingdom of Borun, the king of Borun himself, and the army of the Kingdom of Lensa have fought bloody battles here for countless days and nights.

This was not to avoid starting a national war, but to send only a small number of elite troops to attack Rand, who was still the Count of the Moon Phase at that time.

Instead, we actually mobilized most of our strength to defend.

Because of the issue of the lips and teeth being interdependent, although the Kingdom of Lunsa hesitated at first whether to send troops, once it did, the reinforcements were also clear.

But the defense line was still not held.

Here we can see the power of the undead and the cruelty of this war.

If the Frost Moon Kingdom was besieged by these two southern countries without requesting support from other northern allied countries, it might not be able to withstand it.

The horse's hooves stepped on the ground, splashing mud or blood.

Broken flags, internal organs torn everywhere by the corpse-eating creatures, broken swords, and twisted and deformed armor.

Flies, vultures, wild dogs.

And, occasionally, a humanoid creature would stagger to its feet.

This is certainly not a soldier who fell on the battlefield and barely regained consciousness and stood up, but a resurrected undead.

The closer you get to the target, the more undead there are.

Wild dogs and vultures have also become less common.

More are the ghosts with sad eyes.

The undead army of the Scourge is composed of countless souls and corpses, and its leader is the Scourge Archbishop who controls death and shadow.

Getting closer.

At this distance, the outer wall of the unfinished obsidian tower can be clearly seen.

The outer wall of the tower shone with a dark glow, as if it itself was forged by the power of darkness, unfinished, and already corroded by the curse.

"Forward!" Rand ordered.

The knights' swords flashed coldly, and their horses changed from pacing to running.

As the order was issued, the footsteps of the war horses stamped the earth, and everyone quickly advanced towards the enemy's obsidian tower.

The Undead Legion has been waiting for a long time.

A team of knights also walked out from the shadow of the obsidian tower.

They were dressed in rotten armor and rode on skeletal horses. Their eyes emitted a faint green light and they held huge swords in their hands. Their dry and lifeless faces showed indifference.

It's a Death Knight.

A dangerous undead army.

The smell of death in the air became thicker.

Then, the huge figure of the meat mountain appeared in front of everyone. It was a monster made of piles of corpses and rotten flesh, almost covering half the sky. Rotten flesh dripped on its body, emitting a disgusting stench. With every step it took, the ground seemed to crack under its weight, and death energy overflowed from its body like a tide.

The undead clearly attach great importance to the Obsidian Tower.

High-level undead that are rarely seen in normal times are everywhere here.

And what's more, the bone dragon he summoned seemed to have become stronger.

Rand didn't know whether it was because the power of death was so strong here, or because the bone dragon was blessed by the obsidian tower far away in the City of the Dead, or because the semi-finished obsidian tower of the No. 1 defense line was now functional.

…

Rand gave the order again: "Charge."

If a Death Knight gets close to an Oxen Rider, he will be weakened.

Then the weapon coated with the Torch Church's special kerosene will pierce the Death Knight's chest and abdomen.

Karin also began to brandish the pistol.

I don’t know when it started.

It probably started when Rand received Blessing 6: Favor of the Torch Goddess.

The power of the Torch Church's nascent sect will no longer be too mutually exclusive with the power of Rand's Mother Goddess sect.

The mutually exclusive nature of the two forces themselves has not disappeared, but it has been somewhat alleviated.

At least if Karin had not directly attacked Rand's Mother Goddess sect followers or creations, she would not have suppressed the power of the Mother Goddess sect too much.

Karin increased the speed of her horse and rushed to the front of the team.

"Drink——" He said in a low voice.

Then, the huge flesh mountain monster began to burn all over its body.

Rand's team continued to charge.

In the distance, in several other directions.

There were also sounds of fighting.

Three groups of troops attacked from three directions.

It's a good strategy, as it can share the pressure with each other.

And at the bottom of the obsidian tower, the Archbishop of Scourge is no longer there.

After the Archbishop of Scourge brought a large number of troops, he left and returned to the City of the Dead to continue to preside over the situation.

Before the construction of the Obsidian Tower of the Bolun Kingdom's No. 1 defense line, part of the death power of the undead here still needed to be supplied by the Obsidian Tower of the City of the Dead.

The No. 1 defense line of the Kingdom of Bolen is a place filled with death due to the many deaths in the war, but the undead will not die naturally here.

The City of the Dead is the heartland of the undead and also the basic support. The Archbishop of the Scourge will not leave the City of the Dead for too long, and the deployment of the power of death in the Obsidian Tower also needs to be presided over by the Archbishop of the Scourge himself.

However, the Archbishop of Scourge is also very concerned about the No. 1 defense line, which is a strategic breakthrough for the Undead.

He made preparations.

It was the excavated skeleton of a giant.

Can be awakened at any time.

And also.

Before leaving, the Archbishop of Scourge told the remaining Archbishop of Scourge something.

He sensed powerful creatures that had been resurrected by the power of death.

The Scourge Archbishop could feel the power of this creature.

Although this was not summoned by the Scourge Cult themselves and could not be controlled, the Scourge Archbishop tried to call it.

A few days ago, one could already feel this powerful death creature heading towards the Bolen Kingdom's No. 1 defense line.

Appears to be a flying creature.

That's probably the undead phoenix or the bone dragon.

God really helps the Scourge Cult.

Everything is a gift from the Apostle of Scourge!

Now, the remaining Scourge Bishops could already feel the huge force of death rolling above the clouds.

This force, like the scorching sun composed of the power of death, is extremely dazzling to the undead and the Scourge cultists.

So they are excited.

They indeed could not control the powerful undead above the clouds, but at least, the undead's hatred for the living was innate.

In addition, the Archbishop of Scourge had already prepared the corpse giant.

Humans actually still want to attack their strongholds and destroy the Tower of Death.

Really!

Foolishness! Delusion! And Rand's team continued to advance at high speed.

Neither the Death Knight nor the Meat Mountain could slow down the advance of Rand's team.

There are a lot of undead, and it could be really troublesome if we were surrounded.

Flying shrieking banshees appeared on the top of the ruined core castle of the No. 1 defense line. With a low whistling sound, they launched an attack on human forces from the sky.

Rand's team was naturally attacked by the banshees.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

They were wearing torn black robes, their faces were pale, and their blood-red eyes flashed with evil light.

Their wings are broad and fierce, and the tips of their wings make a sharp sound of wind.

But when approaching Rand's team.

The cow-horse stance slowed down the banshees.

What greeted them next was the fiery weapons.

The knight's warhorse neighed loudly, and the horse's hooves flew, raising dust and grass clippings, and quickly approached the undead's position.

Those guarding the position are not ordinary zombies and skeletons.

At least the weapons and armor of these undead are not rotten and damaged.

Some armor still shows signs of repair.

It seems that the undead also have blacksmiths.

Another group of death knights charged towards Rand's team.

The Death Knight swung his greatsword, and the wind was blowing fiercely. The knight showed no weakness and stabbed the enemy with his spear tip like raindrops. The armor and the sword blade made a loud sound of metal collision when they collided.

Because Rand's team was in the front.

He faced the most enemies, and two more meat mountains were walking towards Rand.

The sound of footsteps shook the earth.

The Meat Mountain let out a low roar and swung its giant arms violently, stirring up a strong wind.

The huge body of the Meat Mountain blocked everyone's progress like a real mountain.

Rand had good hearing, and the teams in other directions could already hear a lot of human screams.

Things are going a little smoother in Rand, but not too smoothly.

There are too many undead.

The Meat Mountain's rotting flesh emits a strong odor with every step it takes, and the surrounding undead move with its movements.

The banshees danced around the mountain of flesh, spreading their wings and swooping down from the sky like ghosts, their sharp cries piercing the dark sky.

It is noon now, but due to the dark sky formed by the spell cast by the Scourge Bishop, it is as dark as night here.

Fortunately, there are always fires burning around to point the way for everyone.

The Scourge Bishop will also cast spells towards Rand's team.

Orbs of vile death power exploded around the party.

There was a strong wind and a foul stench.

Still some knights were hit by the power of death and fell.

There were too many undead around, and even Karin couldn't take care of the entire team.

At least not Karin without opening her eyes.

But fortunately, everyone finally rushed to the vicinity of the Obsidian Tower.

And because more Undead forces were used to stop Rand, the pressure on the other routes was reduced, and now the other routes are closer to the Obsidian Tower.

The magician is ready to cast a spell.

The magic that has been prepared for a long time will violently tear apart all suspicious buildings.

Right at this moment.

The earth is shaking.

The well-trained war horses and cattle all neighed in panic.

The huge corpse giant slowly stood up, its body towering into the sky.

It took a step forward.

Those are feet as big as mountains.

"There's still a trump card." Rand cursed inwardly.

It must have been dug out recently, otherwise it must have been used in the attack on the No. 1 defense line of the Kingdom of Bolen.

Now it's Rand and his men's turn to suffer.

The corpse giant's mouth opened slightly and let out a dull roar. The sound was like the earth's crust tearing, and like countless wronged souls crying.

The entire wilderness seemed to surrender to this terrifying force.

The Scourge Bishops stood at the feet of the giant, looking up at this horrific creature of death with fanatical smiles on their faces.

A Scourge Bishop stretched out his hand and pointed at several powerful and elite troops rushing over.

"Go and bring destruction."

The corpse giant took another sudden step forward, and every step seemed to ring the bell of doomsday, and darkness spread.

Rand could hear the shouts and curses from several other powerful men.

The giant's power is indeed impressive.

If we had crossbows and catapults, it might be easier to deal with.

But now…

If classified according to the standards of professionals, then this corpse giant cannot even be considered an elite professional.

There were quite a few top-level professionals present.

But for the top professionals, the corpse giant is already their calamity.

The corpse giant is far from being comparable to the meat mountain.

"Karin," Rand called.

Karin took off her tiara.

But her beauty is still hidden under the black cloak.

The pair of red eyes that reflected the sea of ​​fire stared at the corpse giant in front of them.

Then, a sea of ​​fire really broke out.

Countless undead souls began to wail and burn.

The corpse giant, who had been crushing many strong men on other routes like ants, suddenly turned around.

Roaring, it marched towards Rand's team, and its huge corpse arms waved, stirring up a storm and sweeping up dust and rubble.

But the air around Karin was distorted by the high temperature.

Such high temperatures forced Rand and his team to stay away.

A storm of fire ignited all around.

The raging flames shot up into the sky, even tearing apart the dark sky, allowing the scorching sun to shine again on this dark land.

Rand, who had already moved away, covered his mouth and nose.

The current air temperature is no longer suitable for human breathing.

Rand looked at Karin, who was in the center of the flames.

This means that Karin's clothes are also equipment with very high fire resistance properties.

As for the black robe draped over Karin, it had already turned to ashes.

Karin's golden hair danced wildly.

Hold the pistol tightly in your hand.

Then.

It's a rainbow piercing the sun!

The Sin-Cleansing Flame easily penetrated the skeleton giant's palms, chest and abdomen, and then pierced through a part of the obsidian tower's base.

The giant corpse fell down, and there was another earth-shaking sound.

Now the Obsidian Tower is beginning to crumble.

"Good opportunity." Rand ordered the three-headed skull dragon.

The other powerful men originally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the skeleton giant fall.

Everyone knows that pistol; it's the Torch Church's sacred weapon, the Eternal Flame of Purification.

It seems that this artifact has been given to the Torch Church's nascent sect.

As expected, this group of stubborn elements spared no effort in eradicating evil.

What a terrifying power.

But suddenly, the dark sky disappeared and became clear.

A huge flying creature appeared.

A three-headed bone dragon.

Wings spread.

It's like covering the sky and the sun.

The body of the three-headed skull dragon is much smaller than that of the corpse giant.

But it is obviously not an ordinary undead.

Seeing the bone dragon flying down, the originally worried Scourge Bishops were overjoyed.

The other groups of humans fell into despair again.

Rand, who was originally on fire, has now stopped making any movement.

Obviously, such a powerful attack cannot be launched a second time.

But then, in the shocked eyes of everyone.

The bone dragon's claws grabbed the half-built obsidian tower.

The bone dragon spread its huge wings and waved wildly.

Four giant claws grabbed the obsidian tower and shook it.

The tower, which had already been damaged by the residual power of the Eternal Flame of Washing Sins, began to shake.

Then, in the shocked gaze of everyone, all the undead, and all the Scourge Bishops.

A gigantic bone dragon pulled out the unfinished obsidian tower and soared into the sky.
