Liu Nian also saw the person inside the door who was stunned with fear, and immediately fired a bone spear straight at that person.
The man seemed to be terrified and was killed instantly by the bone spear.
As for why he was stunned, Liu Nian didn't know. Although the scene of ghouls devouring corpses was a bit horrifying, it wasn't appropriate for him to be so frightened.
Liu Nian mercifully killed the observer with a bone spear, sparing him the torment of the subsequent siege.
Don't underestimate the power of Liu Nian's Bone Spear. With the double boost from skill level and magic power, dealing over a hundred damage with a single Bone Spear is entirely possible.
The ghoul army is all low on health and needs to rest. Cannibalism is the easiest way to do this, although the scene is indeed quite appetizing.
He also needs to take this opportunity to replenish the lost undead units.
During a moment of leisure, Liu Nian peered through the crow's eyes and discovered that there were some professionals from the Light faction in the courtyard. Liu Nian instinctively felt disgusted by them and guessed that they felt the same way.
Those people from the Holy See are inside. Although a direct assault could be successful, the cost would be enormous. He needs a strategy, which will require time to devise.
No wonder my flight units suffered heavy losses earlier; I had to call in reinforcements.
Even so, I'll still deal with you.
Liu Nian's undead units have already surrounded the entire courtyard; now we can slowly storm in.
It's time to put it to use, Liu Nian thought.
A siege machine pushed forward by skeleton soldiers stopped beside Liu Nian. Its all-black design gave it a menacing aura.
To conquer this courtyard, we must bring out this forgotten weapon of mass destruction: the meat grinder.
The meat grinder can throw boulders, body parts, and plague zombies.
Yes, you read that right, it's plague zombies.
Moreover, its rear magazine appears to be a magical artifact, capable of automatically generating a plague zombie corpse every minute.
Having been out of action for a long time, its magazine was now filled with the corpses of six plague zombies. After throwing a few boulders to adjust the trajectory, Liu Nian decisively began to throw plague zombies.
Meanwhile, the observers were killed before they could report back, leaving the surviving commanders bewildered and unsure who to send next.
That doorway is now a deadly hornet's nest; whoever goes there will die!
Fortunately, they soon didn't have to worry about who to send. Before they could even think about it, a huge rock fell from the sky.
Just as they were dumbfounded, the boulder roared and crashed onto the roof of the hall. The enormous kinetic energy smashed through the roof and slammed heavily into the room. The boulder spun around twice before finally coming to a complete stop, leaving only a broken hole in the roof.
While everyone was still in shock, another blow came quietly, this time even closer to the courtyard, smashing a hole in the wall in front of the hall.
Fortunately, there were no casualties in either incident, but everyone was terrified. The enemy had even brought catapults. What would they send next? A germ warfare team?
What's the point of having any formations? We should just hide quickly, otherwise if we get hit by a boulder, even a god can't save us.
Meanwhile, several archers quietly climbed onto the wall, relying on their high agility to sneak out, hoping to find the location of the deadly weapon so they could send a suicide squad to destroy it; otherwise, a slow death awaited them.
Meanwhile, some people were carefully observing the entrance. The Templars still had plenty of mana, so they could naturally inflict serious damage on the invading undead.
Unfortunately, the meat grinder was heavily protected by a group of undead units. Moreover, when they peeked out, a hail of arrows rained down, forcing them to retreat.
The trajectory has been adjusted. After the meat grinder adjusted its direction, a plague zombie was fixed in the launch chamber. With the brakes pulled, the plague zombie was accurately launched into the courtyard.
Instead of the sickening thud of a heavy object hitting the ground, the Axe Gang members were puzzled when the green plague gas carried by the plague zombie that had been smashed in began to slowly spread throughout the area.
The entire area where it was located was shrouded in a green plague fog, forcing the Axe Gang members to risk moving out of the area.
However, the Axe Gang leaders who were unable to dodge in time were instantly infected with the plague. If it is not cured in time, it will inflict a disease effect on the infected, reducing their attribute values and continuously depleting their health.
In addition, it can also infect other uninfected people around him.
In their panicked escape, the infected individuals gradually infected members of the Axe Gang along their route, and the virus spread from one to ten, then from ten to a hundred, and the virus developed in an uncontrollable direction.
Paladins and monks have practiced healing arts, so these plagues are naturally no match for them.
However, casting these spells requires a lot of mana. Even if the Axe Gang can provide a lot of mana, the skill cooldown is still too high, so you still have to wait patiently.
The painful thing is that even if they are successfully cured, they will soon be infected by others, getting caught in an endless cycle of transmission.
Amidst their frantic efforts, Liu Nian showed no mercy, continuously deploying plague zombies to multiple locations to ensure the plague could spread throughout the entire manor as much as possible.
Moreover, with the raven's vision, they can command the skeleton archers to launch projectile attacks, further shrinking the axe gang's living space and leaving them to struggle in a hail of arrows and plague.
This is the consequence of a war of attrition against the undead. If they had decisively pushed forward in one wave, the outcome would have been uncertain.
Now, Liu Nian firmly holds the initiative. After the plague spreads for a while longer, he will lead his men in to storm in and try to wipe them out in one fell swoop.
Liang Kun looked around at his brothers who were coughing softly, some of whom were even coughing up blood, and he couldn't help but feel worried.
He had one more card up his sleeve, but it seems to have lost its effectiveness.
That was his messenger, who had secretly gone out to fetch reinforcements long ago, but had not returned yet, and was certainly in grave danger.
Actually, he guessed wrong. His messengers were not discovered by Liu Nian. At this moment, they were being treated as honored guests in the City Lord's Mansion and the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group.
The two old foxes shared the same idea: to neither offend the Axe Gang's messenger nor Liu Nian, the legendary master.
As for the benefits promised by the Axe Gang, there's really no need for them. Whoever loses will gain more benefits. Ideally, they should both be severely injured, so that they can reap all the benefits effortlessly.
But refusing now would seem too cold-blooded, so they treated the messenger to fine wine and meat, and spread out spies around to ensure they could get the latest information for betting.
Whether they save him or not, they all know one thing: after this incident, the Axe Gang will only be a second-rate gang, and they will make sure that it does not rise again.
It is now known that this top-ranked expert named Liu Nian has killed all the cult members at the entrance, leaving only the final battle for the Axe Gang headquarters.
He seems to have sealed off the entire Axe Gang with poison gas. If you get too far away, you can only see a rough outline, and if you get too close, he might misunderstand. If he leads his men to attack, it would be a loss.
It seems that this Liu Nian has a high chance of winning. I need to prepare myself and at least win his favor.
