Chapter 367: Undead

To be honest, in the Byron League, the status of Baron is really low and pitiful.
In many places, it is at best the owner of a castle, or an unknown mayor.
But when the Lord Baron sits on a territory of nearly a thousand kilometers, millions of people, and nearly a hundred thousand troops, everything is different, especially when the other party also monopolizes the upper reaches of the Jacob River. And she has a close relationship with the most powerful woman in the world, and her nature is a little different.
To put it bluntly, Sean is the most powerful and influential baron in the history of the Byron League.
In less than a year, his fame has spread to Asain. Although most of them are upstarts and barons from the mountains, this kind of insulting insults is the majority, but is the negative reputation also not?
As for how much envy, jealousy and hatred they have when they scold the nouveau riche, how much they want to be such a nouveau riche is unknown.
The other party really has the ability to rely on this kind of influence to vigorously discredit the Kingsley family's reputation, and then give those who are interested in it the opportunity to use it.
"You defrauded me." Kleist, the old fox who has been through the storm, immediately reacted, "If the four elders of the Crocodile tribe really swear allegiance to Baron Sean, why bother to reorganize the army?"
"Isn’t army reorganization a normal thing? Do you think we will see the failure of the original army composition of the Crocodile tribe? They are just a drag to us. It is with the cooperation of the four elders that the army reorganization is so smooth. "Branen showed a defiant smile, "If you don't believe me, you can try it, but all the consequences are at your own risk! The reputation we have built among the Crocodile tribe is enough, and there are 20,000 civilians, which is just icing on the cake. At that time, you can see if they hate you group of butchers? Or we group of people who tried their best to deal with but failed?"
Sir Klester fell into silence for a long time, and the initial confrontation ended in failure, because he was now a little confused about the true situation between the leader of the Eternal Night and the Crocodile Clan.
If it is true that, as Brian said, the Evernight Army leader has silently completed the annexation of the Crocodile tribe, the reputation of the Evernight Army leader among the Crocodile tribe will not be so important.
"I can't do this, I need to go back and ask for instructions." Sir Klester chose to slow down.
"I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible. We can afford to wait. Those civilians can't afford to wait. If they are all dead, they will be worthless." Brann's plain words are endlessly cold, as if he was talking It's not 20,000 living lives, but a batch of commodity goods, the kind that doesn't matter.
As for whether this is a true reflection of his heart? Still deliberately showed it.
Kleist didn't dare to speculate, they seemed to be one step behind in this confrontation, arched their hands, and hurriedly withdrew with their own people.
One day later.
The Kingsley family sent news again, but this time they asked the top leaders of both sides to meet directly.
Regarding this request, Bran was also unable to decide on his own, and immediately requested to see the lord Sean.
But I saw Sean, two days later.
It's not that Sean doesn't take this matter seriously, but that he himself is not on the flagship, but is investigating over the territory of the Klein tribe.
Now the Klein tribe has become the greatest threat to the Evernight Army leader to rule the Swamp of Despair.
The Kingsley family's Eastern Expeditionary Army had been eaten to death by them, but the Klein tribe was in an uncontrolled and uncertain state.
So far, they have not been able to fully understand the bottom of the Klein tribe.
Just like the large-scale beast return to ancient event caused by the Tower of Laws, ordinary soldiers have no way to infiltrate the Klein tribe to investigate the internal situation, even the experienced Hawkeye.
Because there are no ordinary people here.
The condition of the Klein tribe is the worst kind in Sean's speculation.
The entire Klein tribe, both men and women, old and young, have become semi-dead, and the more they go into the territory, the more undead.
Previously on the Danube, the Klein soldiers they saw were in relatively good condition, at most half human and half ghost.
The people of the Klein tribe in the core area have basically deviated from the human image. Not only did their muscles explode, but the bones were externally placed, very close to the body, like a skeleton monster, like a legendary skeleton soldier.
But don't equate them with the low-level cannon fodder that falls when the wind blows. It is more appropriate to describe them as skeletal armored soldiers. That layer of skeletal armor is more defensive than heavy armor.
But it has the advantages that heavy armor can't match-light weight, and it is truly tailor-made.
The other is strong anti-electricity ability.
The reason Sean is so clear is of course the result of his own experiment.
The thunder-thundering golden eagle can hit even a champion knight by thunder, barely smashing to death a skeletal armored soldier.
But the result of this is the same as stabbing a hornet's nest.
Countless skeletal armored soldiers and semi-undead Klein tribe soldiers came out of unknown corners, even if they couldn't reach Sean who was flying in the air, they chased him wildly behind his ass.
There were more than a hundred armored soldiers with bones.
Sean also saw the human ant tactics again, countless bone armored soldiers, like ants crossing the river, piled up one by one, trying to build a ladder to the sky and drag Sean and the black collar down from the air.
Although it's not the first time I saw it, but every time it was so shocking, and then endless horror, the kind of numbness from the heel to the scalp, I really can't figure out how they did this?
But this is not the biggest receipt of Sean's trip.
In the beginning, Sean planned to capture a skeleton armored soldier back for anatomical research, until he found a more valuable target-the skeleton armored knight.
These skeletal armored knights are not riding horses, but the fighting and hunting companions of the Crocodile tribe, which are about to be forgotten.
As the environment of Despair Swamp intensifies, the use of war crocodile becomes smaller and smaller.
Especially in large-scale wars, they are rarely seen.
The only thing that played a little role seemed to be in the moat of the defensive battle of Brother Port, but as winter came, they basically withdrew from the battlefield.
Things like war beasts.
It can not be said that it is useless at all. Once the size is large enough, in some battles, it will be used unexpectedly.
For example, the armored war bear's ability to break formations and shields, the Andis Tiger's deterrence and intimidation ability against the cavalry, and the charge ability of the Kolei beasts when they gather in groups.
Just like their outstanding advantages, their shortcomings are also very obvious.
In the past, the general use of beasts was restricted to their IQ. Even after rigorous training, it was difficult to adapt to complex battlefields. Especially after seeing blood, many beasts either flinched or went crazy.
This problem was solved in the Yongye Army leader because the beast returned to ancient times and his IQ improved.
But this only makes the small-scale application of War Beast possible, and large-scale use is still difficult.
Kolymon and armored war bear are omnivorous war beasts, it's better to say something.
The most troublesome thing is the pure carnivorous animal like the Andis Tiger. The financial and material resources needed to keep them in captivity are more than three hundred times that of elite war horses, and fifty times that of Kore beasts and armored war bears.
How to choose is self-evident.
Armored war bears and kole beasts can be the only beasts, but the Andis Tigers can only become the mounts of middle and high-level officers, and they can be deployed in special battles.
As a pure carnivorous animal, the war crocodile used to rely on the vast waters of the Desperate Swamp, semi-automatic hunting and semi-human captive breeding, and there is still a large amount of foundation.
Now they can only withdraw from the life of the crocodile on a large scale, even in the training base led by the Yongye Army, the returning war crocodile has been reborn, and it is somewhat similar to the legendary earth travel dragon, but in the process of adapting to the dawn group army, Still not considering using it on a large scale.
The crocodile mounts of the skeletal armored knights have no such shortcomings.
Because these war crocodiles are no longer pure, not only have their bodies become larger, they also have serious external bones.
This means that it is just like those undead crocodile tribes, the substantive magical energy flowing in the bloodline can provide them with basic needs. There is basically no demand for food and the like, and naturally they no longer have logistics supplies. pressure.
After these war crocodiles became undead, their appearance changed quite a lot. They were no longer flat and short, but became more majestic than war horses. If they hadn't changed much in their heads, they almost failed to connect them with war crocodiles. The change of direction is more perfectly matched with the skeleton armored knight.
The crocodile mounts that have become this appearance have obviously lost their swimming ability, and their land running ability has been improved.
This discovery made the condition of Klein's tribal territory immediately soaring by several levels.
Crocodile people have a long history of keeping war crocodile in captivity. Which family does not keep two or three captives, as a fishing aid, plus wild war crocodile, the total number is much larger than that of crocodile people.
The most important thing is the deep meaning brought about by the war crocodile's undeadization, which is possible for all living creatures here.
During the investigation, Sean has not found it yet, which does not mean there is not.
He had been wandering around the territory of the Klein tribe for several laps before. At first, didn't he find the bone-armed soldiers and the bone-armed knights?
After all, Shaun is one person and one rider. In a short time, the scope of investigation is relatively limited.
With the development and growth of Yongye army leader, there are more and more things that need to be handled by him personally.
This situation will only become more and more serious, and the flying brigade led by Yongye Army will need a period of tempering and accumulation to grow up.
The soldiers of the Klein tribe are very good at hiding tracks. Not only do their physical conditions become very similar to the dead, but many of their behaviors are also very similar to the dead. When they stand silently in the shadows, it is not so difficult to find them. .
Many of the undead Klein tribe soldiers seemed to like to soak themselves in pools or swamps. In that case, they didn't take the initiative to expose their whereabouts and could not find them.
Although they are not afraid of sunlight, they do not like sunlight very much.
When the sun is sky, it is difficult to detect them.
When the bright moon is shining all over, they will come out silently again, with wildfire-like eyes looking up at the moon.
Sean has found the core area of ​​the Klein tribe.
It didn't take much time, and it was already found during the first high-altitude reconnaissance.
The results of the anatomy conducted by the leader of Yongye showed that the body abnormality of the soldiers of the Klein tribe was caused by the injection of spell energy.
Based on this, Sean had a definite target, chasing the abnormal fluctuations of spell energy, naturally it was easy to find his destination.
The vast spell fluctuations, even if they are separated by dozens of miles, can clearly feel that they are only stronger than the energy reaction chamber of the northern fortress.
This also confirmed in disguise the Yongye leader's inference that the abnormal condition on the soldiers of the Klein tribe was related to the spell energy.
The same is magical energy.
There is a huge difference between the magical energy transmitted from the Klein tribe and the energy reaction chamber of the Eternal Night Army leading the northern fortress.
The magic energy of the energy reaction chamber is attributeless and can also be called mixed attribute.
But what came out of the territory of the Klein tribe was biased towards the dark attribute, which was exactly the same as that of the soldiers of the Klein tribe, and had a high degree of recognition.
The suffocating breath of death rushed to the face.
Before this, Sean had never known that death could be directly perceived.
Regrettably, Sean could not find out how the breath of death like the abyss formed.
That area has been completely flooded with the magical energy exuding death breath, forming a black mist with a diameter of more than several kilometers, like a semi-circular lid, shrouded there, including the air, even if the sun is scorching, it will not dissipate.
When the visible distance was no more than ten meters, Xiao En wisely stepped out.
In that case, the chance of being able to discover the root cause of the Klein tribe's mutation is very slim, and there is a high chance that he will take his own life into it.
Heroism is not the only thing that saves the world on its own.
Not without.
There are poor people with small possibilities in reality, but more in biographical novels.
Sean didn't think that by ruining the source, all these undead soldiers of the Klein tribe could die silently, nor did he think that he could do this by himself.
Once anything has something to do with the spell energy, it will become abnormal.
A pair of gold armor with sufficient energy can give Akmeser an invincible body, and the energy-filled dragon skeletal battleship moves back and forth like an unsinkable battleship.
The magical energy here is far more vast than the two manifestations.
The black powder cluster bombs airlifted by the black collar, even if they were all replaced with gem bombs, would not pose much threat to them.
Its sole function is to provide direction for Sean's subsequent investigations, and most of the time it revolves around this core area.
Bone armored soldiers and bone armored knights were found around the core area.
Based on observations during this period, Sean still summed up a few more regular things.
The first point is the distribution of personnel. The closer to the core zone, the more undead situation on Klein's soldiers.
This should be directly related to the energy of the death spell.
The closer you are to the core zone, the stronger the energy of death spells in the air, and the more this energy you usually absorb ~ EbookFREE.me~, the more serious the undead characteristics of your body.
This reason is the same as that of returning to ancient beasts near the energy reaction chamber, the faster the returning to ancient times, the same reason.
The second point is that these undead Klein soldiers didn't squat in the same position motionlessly.
They seem to have their own operating mechanism. In unit time, there will always be some undead Klein soldiers entering the patrol and hunting state.
During this process, Sean did not see anyone passing the order, but the connection was extremely perfect, with no loopholes.
For this reason, Xiao En highly suspected that in that mysterious core area, there was a possibility of existence similar to the tower of law, which could remotely command these undead Klein soldiers.
The target of the undead Klein soldiers' safari is precisely those non-dead creatures that accidentally break in, usually to catch alive.
Regardless of whether they are dead or alive, they will be dragged towards the core area.
Don't ask, it must be prepared to transform them into the same kind.
