Chapter 1600 Formal Appointment(1/2)
The night dew hit us hard, and the dawn wind had just begun to blow. However, in the far east, what the camp welcomed was not a ray of morning sun, but a long stretch of pale white.
"Ding! Ding! Ding!!!"
The sentry soldiers on the wall, after being stunned for a long time, finally sounded the alarm, and the rapid and high-pitched sound resounded throughout the camp, shocking the peasant women who had already gotten up, as well as the people who were still sleeping, out of their pajamas.
"Enemy attack!!!"
Just a minute or two later, large groups of heavily armed patrol soldiers poured out and occupied various roads, intersections, and residential areas in an orderly manner.
The civilians who woke up formed several long lines under the command of the soldiers, stepped into the magic circle in an orderly manner, and were teleported to the underground space to avoid the battle.
Attacks by hell monsters like this are not uncommon for them. Although the frequency has decreased in recent years, it does not erase everyone's understanding of combat. However, no matter how familiar they are, no one will like it.
Everyone remained calm, but the atmosphere was depressing. Tens of thousands of people lined up in long queues, and conversation could hardly be heard. From time to time, babies and children could be heard crying, which added to the heaviness of the atmosphere.
Only at this time can we deeply feel the difference between the civilians of the third world and the first and second world. We can feel that they are burdened with more pressure and fear.
Standing on the roof, watching this scene from a distance, I let out a sigh, which was soon broken in the icy cold wind.
The hell clan is indeed an unnecessary existence.
Returning to the attic, I pulled the quilt over Beansara who was still sleeping soundly. I looked at her cute sleeping face with a smile, pinched it gently, and turned around to leave.
After a long time, the petite body in the quilt turned over and faced outside the attic window, and the eyes opened without warning.
Not the usual pair of dark and bright eyes, shining with innocence and vitality, but a pair of majestic pupils wrapped in the purest blue flame in the world. Burning with a heart-stopping momentum and power.
These eyes, like those coming from purgatory, stare out the window. Hundreds of kilometers away, in the blue flames in the eyes, it seems that they are instantly transported and brought closer to the sky. A body exudes a majestic aura.
Huge, hollow, green-eyed skeletons looked at each other from a distance.
At that moment, the dazzling green light in the eyes of the huge skeleton suddenly became unstable. It was like a candle that was burning steadily and emitting bright light, and was suddenly hit by the strong wind outside the window, and became swaying left and right, with flames.
Suddenly big and small, bright and dark, as if it was about to be blown out.
Even the huge skeleton body flying in mid-air fell straight down as if it was violently hit by an unknown force, and hit the ground with a roar. Hundreds of skeletons unexpectedly turned into countless pieces and disappeared into the pit.
in.
The huge skeleton that had suffered an unimaginable disaster stood up staggeringly from the pit. Half of its skeletal legs were still kneeling on the ground, unable to stand upright. Suddenly, it raised its head and faced the beast thousands of miles away without fear.
Those terrifying eyes looked at each other.
Even though the green light in his eyes dimmed to the size of a mung bean, he never flinched.
After a few seconds, Beansa looked away, blinked, and his pupils turned into a simple and pure black color again.
"Sister Andariel is true...but that skeleton is so brave...that's fine...it doesn't matter...as long as senior brother..."
A faint muttering came from Beansa, and she felt that the extremely warm body temperature in the quilt that did not belong to her was gradually disappearing. She couldn't help but curl up her petite body and continue to fall asleep.
I had no idea that this scene was happening. The menacing Skeleton Lord was almost forced back by the momentum of a certain demon king. At this time, under the guidance of the soldiers, I hurried to the Mage Guild.
"Xiao Xiao Wu, are you here? Sit down quickly."
I thought I had arrived early enough, but unexpectedly, not to mention Raphael, even Grandma Allen was already sitting firmly here, as if waiting for me alone.
"Sorry, I'm late."
After looking at each other tenderly with Linya who was already inside, I immediately pulled out a chair and sat down.
Raphael, Grandma Allen, led by these two powerful elders, plus the soldier commander Yilanya, the vice president of the Mages Guild Frans, and several camp leaders I know have all come together
Take a seat.
There is also Sa Qili who was dragged into the water by Raphael. She is sitting in a corner. Next to her is a frustrated Shashik. Needless to say, looking at his miserable expression, he must have been dragged over by Sa Qili.
- As the third insider who traveled together and discovered the Skeleton Army.
I think Shashik must be regretting it now. He should not have been coerced and lured by Sa Qili into the dark forest in the first place.
Finally, there are several mages in charge under Frans, several captains under Yilanya, and the nameless two-winged angel who exudes a holy aura.
"Everyone is here, let's start the meeting." Looking around at everyone, Raphael exuded a majestic and powerful aura that made people dare not look directly at him.
"As you can see, the war has begun. The Hell clan is trying to invade our last territory again. We have no way out in this battle. We hope that everyone can work together to overcome the difficulties and protect our homeland."
There is no passionate speech, only a low and concise narration of facts, because there is no need. Except for me, everyone here is an old man who has been baptized by the forces of hell countless times. No one understands the seriousness of this battle better than them.
.
"The above is the latest information just obtained."
As she spoke, Raphael tapped his fingertips, and the pile of information in front of her spread out and landed accurately on everyone's hands.
Everyone remained silent and silently looked at the information in their hands. This was the key to the outcome of the battle.
The number of skeleton legions has increased from about 200,000 detected in the past few days to 300,000. The commander's strength has been basically determined, and he is an intermediate powerhouse in the world's power.
In addition, monsters in the Cold Plains and Blood Wilderness areas have also gathered in large numbers in the past few days. Preliminary estimates indicate that the number of monsters surrounding the camp has reached about 80,000, including Sinking Demons, Sinking Demon Sorcerers, Carrion Corpses, Crusty Rats,
Huge beast. Corrupted Rogg, the specific number is approximately...
No trace of Bossu Bisu and the corpse being ignited has been found yet, and investigators are closely monitoring the situation.
…
After reading all the information, I took a deep breath and let out the tension in my heart.
Fortunately, it's not the worst case scenario. Although the strength of the master of the skeleton army, the number of the skeleton army, and the number of other monsters gathered outside the camp all make us feel a lot of pressure, as long as we must
Bosu is not involved, which is the best news for us.
As a veteran demon king-level powerhouse, Bisu Bosu has participated in many sieges of camps and has rich experience. If it also participates, this battle will be several times more difficult, and it may have to ask for support from the angels.
Only those with one or two World Power levels can cope with it.
After secretly observing everyone, I could detect the feeling of joy in them. Even the five domain-level angels seemed to secretly heave a sigh of relief.
This shows the pressure Bisu Bosu brings to everyone.
As for the burning situation of the corpse, no one knows it better than Sa Qili and I. After trying to break through the power of the world and being knocked down by me, it will not be able to come out of the evil cave for at least the next few years.
Without its command, the zombie army is nothing to fear.
"Although the attack power of the hell forces this time is not very powerful, at least, it is not the most powerful one in the past ten years, but we must also realize our situation. All our world power level experts have been transferred to Harbin.
Logas, there is no one with world power in the entire Rogge camp. According to the intelligence, it is difficult for Halogas to spare manpower to support us. This is the first time in the past hundreds of years, so
This battle will definitely not be easy, I hope everyone can be mentally prepared."
Raphael's calm and majestic clear voice flowed in the ears like a solemn piece of music, making everyone's eyes involuntarily fall on the overview of our strength listed in the information again.
"This is not the first time for everyone to face such a battle. I won't say too much nonsense. I'm calling everyone here this time. In addition to getting the latest information, I have one more thing to announce."
With that said, Raphael stood up and placed his hand on Linya's shoulder next to him.
"This is the special envoy from the alliance, Linya Edward Sprayfield. This battle will be commanded by her."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a small uproar under the table.
Grandma Allen, Frans, Yilanya, Sa Qili, Shashik, and several other camp leaders who had known about this for a long time all nodded and smiled at Linya, while the captains who did not know the truth
, as well as the head of the mage of the Mage Guild, and five angels, their eyes widened in surprise, and the sound came from their mouths.
"Everyone, can you allow me to say a few words?"
At this time, Allen stood up, and suddenly all the whispers stopped.
In terms of popularity, Raphael is naturally the number one in the camp, there is no dispute, but in terms of prestige, Allen, who is highly respected and respected, is even higher than Raphael. In everyone's eyes, the existence of these two people,
It looks a bit like Artoria and Arlandran.
"Perhaps everyone knows that Linya is the granddaughter of Raphael." After taking a look at everyone, Allen's wrinkled face was filled with a kind smile like a spring breeze. His voice was not heavy, but it fell clearly on everyone.
heart.
"But what everyone doesn't know is that in addition to that, Linya is also the assistant to the alliance's Grand Elder Akara and the partner of the Grand Elder's candidate Lena. She has already participated in the management of the alliance at a young age. Over the years,
Every document and order we have that comes from the first world may have passed through her hands. In addition..."
Allen eloquently recounted the traces Linya left in the alliance, making everyone's expressions more and more surprised, and they couldn't help but look at Linya with new eyes again.
Including Sa Qili and others who already knew that she was going to take over the battle command.
There are some things that even I don’t know about, and I don’t know that Linya is working so hard secretly.
However, careful people may find that although Linya has taken on almost half of the affairs of the alliance and has made a lot of achievements, she only has no experience in combat command.
However, probably only someone as smart as Sa Qili could notice this. Naturally, she would not point it out.
"So, I agree with Raphael's appointment this time, and I also believe that Linya is qualified to command this battle. Her wisdom is not inferior to that of Raphael and I."
After Allen finished speaking, he cast his cordial and appreciative gaze on Linya.
If she hadn't recognized Linya's learning achievements during this period, she would never have said such a thing with her rigorous attitude.
"I also agree. Your Excellency Linya's talent amazes me. It only took her less than a week to become familiar with the entire camp's magic circle. If possible, I hope she can continue to develop in magic. Don't waste it.
This gift from God.”
Frans also stood up. He personally taught Linya the capabilities and operations of the defensive magic circle, so he knew very well how talented Linya was in magic.
France's speech was very simple, so simple that many people did not understand what was surprising about his words, except for the mages in charge. They were all the operational commanders of the defensive magic circle, so they naturally understood that they wanted to touch
