Chapter 489: Desperate situation and turning point

Roddy could smell a strong smell of blood when he inhaled, which proved that the undead did not have a long time to be transformed, and the private soldiers decoration on the other party even more proved this: it was a soldier who had just died in an orc attack.

The headless body did not move, but when you looked carefully, you could see the huge wound torn by the wolf cavalry.

"Boss, isn't this guy a human?"

"Die, alive dead, kill them. Next time you see them, be careful not to let their blood splatter into your mouth and eyes. If this happens, go and find Akasha to purify them with magical techniques, otherwise you will be poisoned to death soon. Do you understand?"

The big guy, Erwin, hurriedly nodded and checked whether there was blood from the other person on him. Roddy slowly stood up and glanced around with a serious look...

What does the undead appear here mean?

While thinking, he noticed the prompt from [Task Bar]. When he clicked on it, he suddenly found that the next clue appeared in the [Judgement of the Throne of the Bone]:

"The undead soldiers have appeared in front of you. Behind this is the conspiracy of Emperor Augustine. You are facing the threat of the greatest monarch of the Bone Throne. Fight! Otherwise you will become one of the many bones!"

Mission Target: Repel the Dead Army by 1/3000

Kill the Death Spirit Army Leader 0/1

Mission time: within 3 days

Mission reward: Experience value 6720000, 2 advanced talent points, and any three skills are selected to enhance it.

Rows of words made Luo swallow - the rewards of the "epic" mission have reached this point, and the rewards are indeed tempting. However, such benefits are accompanied by unimaginable dangers... The three-day mission time limit and the 3,000 army of undeads are placed together, which shows that what he has to face is probably the undead's planned encirclement and annihilation!

This is simply a disaster. The orc threat is in front of you, and the undead can't make such a big situation quietly?

How did he do it?

Roddy looked at the corpse in front of him and suddenly heard a war on the soldiers from not far away. He suddenly stood up and found that Soderol had already led three cavalrymen to kill several figures that were about to pounce on the team.

Still the undead!

"Go back to the team immediately, it's not safe here."

Roddy didn't say anything nonsense, called Elvin and others to leave. When he returned to the camp, Soderol on the outside had already killed eight undeads, and the warning showed that more enemies were approaching!

"Stop rest, everyone is ready to set off!"

The soldiers who had just taken a breath immediately picked up their weapons and started to line up. The tired nobles forced themselves to endure the soreness of their legs. However, just as Sally was about to let the team continue to move eastward, Roddy suddenly called her.

"etc."

Soderol rushed back to the team at this time and said anxiously: "Although there are no more undead on the outside, these people are all dressed as private soldiers. One of them should be a baron, and they are all participating in the hunting team!"

"This is not a coincidence...it is not a coincidence at all..."

Roddy said to himself a few words, but suddenly said: "We can't continue to walk, if we continue, we will be dead!"

His words were almost alarmist, which made the nobles around him look over. After experiencing the previous incident, no one had any doubts about Roddy at this time. Everyone was just very puzzled why Roddy made such a judgment.

"The orcs have not been followed yet. These undead ordinary soldiers can beat them. We can still break through..."

"Yes, keep going, it will definitely be possible!"

"No! Why did we encounter the undead as soon as we got rid of the orcs? Could it be that Senna, a traitor, can only collude with the orcs? Can't he call the undead at the same time? Damn it!"

There was no need for Roddy to say anything, and these nobles immediately came back to the scene. None of these people was a fool, and almost immediately thought about the whole story of the incident - but the more this happened, the more silent the atmosphere of the team became.

The sound of alarms on the outside is endless, indicating that more and more undead are rushing towards this place.

"The nearest village cannot be rushed before dark. If it gets dark, then the undead will have an advantage - because the summoned zombies do not rely on their eyes to confirm their targets, and there is no difference between day and night. At that time, even if our team is not caught up by the wolf cavalry, they will probably be surrounded by Dead..."

Roddy was sure of this because he was very familiar with this kind of combat method led by the necromancer. To put it bluntly, when the "soldier source" is sufficient, it is enough to just "encircle" and "consumption" to exhaust the soldiers' physical strength.

There is no need to charge or tricks. The undead's combat method is to crush the target by relying on an absolute "number advantage". They don't care how many people die or how much morale they lose.

In terms of mission objectives, at least three thousand troops are about to besiege Roddy, which is enough to completely destroy Roddy's slow-moving team.

Even if they rushed to the nearest village and provided supplies, no one could stop them without the cover of the city wall...

What if the orcs didn't chase them?

What if there are not so many undead people?

Although there are countless lucky "in case", everyone present understands that if their destiny is entrusted to "in case", the chance of survival may be "one in ten thousand" - wars can never have a lucky mentality. If one step is wrong, the consequence may be that everyone will pay the price of their lives.

Now the team is in a complete dead end. No matter which one you choose, it is nothing more than a desperate attempt. In terms of probability, the consequences are almost a "death". It is just whether you have the courage to get rid of the burden and break through.

"If you can't do it, just do it. If you are willing to stay, you guys like Duke Sally and Baron Roddy, you guys will be divided into a team, and the chances of getting out of danger will definitely be greater."

Some nobles proposed this method in a calm tone. Although it was cruel, no one raised any objections at this time.

The older nobles stopped saying anything and began to sort out their leather armor and weapons. Although many of them had been afraid of death for many years, they were really willing to make sacrifices at this time - in the original creed of human aristocrats, "death in the battle" is always glorious.

Catherine's eyes dimmed. She understood that if she really implemented this plan, she would undoubtedly be the part she was sacrificed, but now she has accepted such a fate calmly.

At least compared to before, Catherine thought she had figured it out a lot after all.

There is no way to do this. Sally looked at Roddy with complicated eyes, who frowned and tried hard to think about a solution, but no matter what, Roddy could not find a way to protect this team-

"What I do will have to bear the consequences." Looking at the somewhat solemn team, Catherine suddenly sighed: "If we hadn't had to form an alliance to deal with Duke Sally on the issue of mine, I'm afraid there would be no such thing as this..."

Several nobles who had previously stood in the same team as Viscount An Ru showed shame, but now that things have come to this point, regret is useless.

"mine…"

Roddy suddenly raised his head and stared at Catherine: "You talk about mines? mines in the Cohen Mountains?"

“Yes…yes.”

Catherine didn't understand why Roddy suddenly spoke so excitedly. After answering instinctively, she found that the other party took a deep breath-

"Huh...there is still hope!"

"What does it mean? Roddy, what's wrong with that mine?"

Sally was not sure about it. She bid for the two silver mines last night and completely followed Roddy's opinion, but the reason was unknown. But why is the escape now related to the mine?

Roddy just glanced at the [Map Bar] and confirmed the plan. He shouted: "Turn now and go toward the Cohen Mine!"

"There is not far from here. If you continue walking, it will be less than 12 kilometers away, but... don't the undead dare to go up the mountain?"

"Stop guessing, I'm explaining to you wherever you go!" Roddy quickly ran to the team standing by around him and shouted: "The guards protect both sides, only attacking the undead near them, and don't care about anything else!"

"Everyone keep going, this bunch of scum doesn't know our kingdom at all, there is a solution to them in the Cohen Mountains!"

Roddy's voice made the soldiers and nobles feel a little more confident, because he didn't look like he was forced to smile, but was very sure.

"If you need to ride a horse, you can ride a horse! Don't save energy for the war horses, let's go up the mountain!"

Looking back, Roddy pointed to Catherine and several barons who voluntarily cut off the back: "Don't think about going to die! Listen to me, this time, I promise you can survive!"

"Everyone will be the heroes of the kingdom, and the enemy will surely die under our sword!"

"Soldiers, set out! For the Kingdom of Karen!"

Catherine stared at the people who were gritting their teeth for survival, kingdom, and glory. Suddenly a burst of blood was surging in her chest...

"For Karen Kingdom!"

Her voice was mixed with the shouts of soldiers. Whether it was her, private soldiers, jihad soldiers, dragon spear knights or those nobles, everyone had only one identity at this moment.

They were the first army in the kingdom to launch a "foreign strike back" in decades.

*******

At the same time, Godard's troops were camping and resting three hundred meters outside Pacaro City.

For the humans in the city, this kind of despise behavior is absolutely a silent insult - not only that, every time, the wolf cavalry will approach the city with the newly cut broken limbs and throw the limbs near the city wall with force, intimidating the nervous soldiers above.

After an hour of throwing this, many guards who had never been to the battlefield were basically pale and their legs were weak. Because the ground was already densely packed with human body fragments, it was so scary.

However, Godard's mood did not improve because of this. His soldiers lost more than 70, but they were unable to take revenge because the enemy was huddled in the city. Now it is a helpless move to vent their anger in this way...

After his anger gradually dissipated, he simply began to care about returning to the grassland.

Anyway, people have killed enough, and the nobles have made enough money, so they will not lose anyway.

However, just as he was about to order everyone to rest on the spot, the orc in black robe appeared in front of him again and brought a piece of news that surprised him-

"You said they didn't go into the city? How could it be?"

*******

Qidian blocked the push, and I didn't receive any notice before, resulting in nothing that could break out. The editor said that the number of updates I can rank among the top three of "stop blocked minimum updates". H In order not to enter this team, I worked hard to update two times today.
Chapter completed!
