Meng Guang's plan was clearly a suicidal attack. Yun Xinghe's face darkened, and he said, "Aren't you afraid of dying?"
Meng Guang said, “Death? Of course I’m afraid of death! But look at those skeleton monsters below. They only need one strike, just one ordinary strike, to kill a gold-level gnoll soldier. They are like a plague, invincible and spreading rampantly. What can stop them? Even if you fill all the hundreds of billions of human soldiers into them, you still can’t stop them.”
Meng Guang roared, "Even if I don't die today, I'm definitely going to die tomorrow! Do you think being afraid now will do me any good?"
Yun Xinghe suddenly laughed and said, "So you discovered them a long time ago."
Meng Guang said, "Discover them? They used the gnolls' teleportation arrays to successively conquer 38 star-level domains and 138 clan-level domains of the gnolls, not to mention countless other smaller domains. How could I not have discovered them? If the gnoll Empire hadn't shut down all the conquered teleportation arrays, the entire gnoll Empire would have been slaughtered by them!"
Meng Guang was no longer calm. The horror on his face was like a thick fog, almost dripping with tears. His body trembled, as if his heart and soul were about to burst.
Jiang Hao was astonished. In just a few days, the little skeleton had already accomplished such a feat.
It was truly an unexpected delight.
Yun Xinghe was also surprised, and he glanced at Jiang Hao a few times, seemingly casually. Jiang Hao shrank back slightly, indicating that he had only just found out himself.
Yun Xinghe said, "Then how can you be so sure that we can withstand this skeleton army?"
Meng Guang said, "Resist? You are too modest. The Realm No. 1 was once invaded by the Skeleton Legion, and the entire Realm is still fine now, isn't it? Apart from the great war two hundred years ago, tell me, which other Realm has been able to repel the Skeleton Legion?"
Meng Guang's words are indeed irrefutable.
Yun Xinghe spread his hands and said, "The reason we were able to repel the skeleton army that time was entirely due to the wisdom and might of our city lord, who chanted a few incantations at the front pass. Now that the city lord is not here, the few of us here are of no use."
Meng Guang said, "A spell? What spell can repel the skeleton army? Don't joke with my life! Since your city lord hasn't come, please contact him immediately and tell him to come as soon as possible."
Meng Guang waved his hand, summoned a human soldier, and said, "Immediately dispatch a medium-sized warship to the top of Dingbei City to pick up the city lord."
The soldier summoned a flying griffin, which flew towards the main city to the west. In a matter of moments, it had vanished without a trace.
Meng Guang said, "As for you all, stay here for now. If the city lord doesn't arrive in an hour, I will risk my life to kill one of you. If your city lord still doesn't arrive, I will kill one more person every half hour."
Meng Guang gave a sinister smile and said, "The Jackal Empire has used teleportation arrays to lure the Skeleton Legion into 122 star-level domains of my human race. Every moment, countless humans perish. Perhaps I, Meng, will have to be ruthless this time."
No, this is absolutely wrong. Jiang Hao had given the little skeleton orders to only kill gnolls and orcs; the little skeleton would never slaughter a single human. How could Meng Guang be saying that the little skeleton and its army are massacring humans?
Yun Xinghe and his teammates all looked at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao asked, "May I ask, General, is the Skeleton Legion currently slaughtering humans?"
Meng Guang pointed downwards and said, "They came from the gnoll teleportation array, and the gnolls and orc army will be the first to be hit. Once they're all killed, do you think the skeleton legion will leave the human army unscathed?"
Jiang Hao was relieved to see that Neng Guang hadn't confirmed it in person.
Meng Guang said, "I advise you to contact your city lord as soon as possible. If he can't arrive in time, I mean it!"
Yun Xinghe suddenly said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Our city lord has replied."
Meng Guang grabbed Yun Xinghe's shoulder, but the magical shield around Yun Xinghe was slippery, and he missed. Meng Guang didn't seem to mind and said, "What did he say? Is he already waiting in Dingbei City?"
Yun Xinghe said, "The city lord is very busy, how could he have time to come here? However, he sent over a few incantations. He said that as long as you recite the incantations, those skeleton legions will not attack."
Meng Guang, still somewhat skeptical, asked, "A spell? What spell?"
Yun Xinghe said, "The protective spell is very simple. Remember it well. It only has three words: grass~ wo~ ma~."
Meng Guang thought for a moment, then suddenly realized something. His face turned red, and he drew his broadsword, roaring, "You fucking want to die!"
Jiang Hao desperately tried to hold back his laughter.
Yun Xinghe spread his hands and said, "It was sent by the city lord, what does it have to do with me? If you don't believe me, feel free to send your men to try."
Meng Guang looked at Jiang Hao and the others, and Yun Xinghe said calmly, "The city lord said that we are guests from afar. If you force us to go down and conduct the experiment, it not only shows that you do not trust him, but also that you do not take him seriously at all. In that case, he will definitely not come. Even if you kill us all, he will not come back."
Meng Guang was so angry that he began to tremble all over, and he cried out, "Guards!"
Five or six guards immediately ran up behind him and said, "Your subordinates are here!"
Meng Guang didn't turn around, and said, "Have you memorized the incantation? Repeat it once."
The six guards shouted in unison, "Damn it!"
Even the intonation and rhythm are exactly the same.
Meng Guang said, "Alright, I've remembered it clearly. You may leave now!"
The group replied in unison, "Yes!"
Seeing that they didn't even blink, Jiang Hao admired them as heroes and said, "Remember, once you're down there, never attack the skeleton army, or they will tear you to pieces immediately!"
The group replied in unison once again, "Yes!"
They then filed down.
These individuals are all powerful Dark Gold level experts; jumping from a height of several hundred meters is an easy task for them.
Surrounded by the horde of skeleton monsters, none of them dared to move, let alone draw their swords. Strangely enough, the surrounding skeleton monsters seemed not to see them at all, circling around them without any intention of attacking.
One of the bold guards reached out and touched the arm bone of a skeletal gnoll, but the skeleton flung his hand away and leaped away into the distance.
Meng Guang lay beside the warship, completely stunned. He absolutely did not believe that pointless incantation, but the fact that the skeleton army did not attack humans was simply too unbelievable.
Even with all his previous knowledge and experience, he couldn't understand a single thing about it.
At this moment, even the other guards, without Meng Guang's orders, began to peer down into the warship, and whispers filled the air.
Just then, three bells rang out from the main city in the west. Meng Guang immediately stood up and said, "Prince Yi has arrived! Let's hurry to the city wall to greet him!"
