Vol 8 Chapter 58: Undead

"The undead of the Twin Towers?" Stark asked in surprise.
Judging from the information that the apostles had previously obtained, the twin towers and the tower of the Durrag in the north and south of the Cloud Mountain Range, although belonging to the two major forbidden areas, are surrounded by a large number of undead creatures, but these undead have never walked out of this area. .
Unlike some unfamiliar fears of the undead, the undead's requirements for the living environment are more demanding than the intelligent life. Humans, elves, dwarves, including most intelligent races, can survive stubbornly in the presence of water and food, even in the ice fields and deserts.
However, the undead are different. They do not need food and water, but the requirements of the surrounding environment are very demanding. Most of the undead are unconscious and will only instinctively stay in a cold, dry place where the sun can't directly reach.
Otherwise, their bodies will be more perishable, and even the bones will gradually become brittle due to calcification, and they will fall apart with a little collision. In addition, they must have a strong yin in the area where they are used to nourish their undead, just like the lubricating oil used in machines.
The so-called yin is a kind of plague-type suffocating gas produced by the combination of the dark elements. From the perspective of the magician, it is also called the cloud of death.
The reason why the Cloud Mountain is called the Cloud Mountain Range is naturally because the place is full of gas and there are toxic suffocating suffocating everywhere, which is most suitable for the undead to survive. The former towers of the Petronas Twin Towers and the Durrag Tower are military forts. The latter are magic towers. The early interiors are filled with magical elements and are the easiest place to recover the undead.
Today, these two places are convenient to form a forbidden zone of life, wandering with many undead. However, people on the mainland of Feren, including the Baldur Gate in the north of the Cloudy Mountains and the Ams in the south, are not very concerned about it.
This is of course not because they do not know the harm of the undead, but that it is not necessary to provoke these undead. The undead is terrible, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't come out.
"...just the big men above have forgotten that the undead don't come out doesn't mean they don't have threats. They are willing to be isolated from the world, but some people have to take them out of the restricted area of ​​life!" Boni said with a smile .
Stark was taken aback and hurriedly asked: "Would those people not afraid to die?"
"They won't die, because they are dead, and the restricted area of ​​life can't ban their entry and exit." Boni sinks his face and expresses his hate.
After some explanation, Stark slowly understood. Most of the undead in the restricted area of ​​life is unconscious, but a small part has consciousness. These undead were the knights of the Twin Towers or the Elf Magician of the Tower of Durrag.
These people were originally strong, and even after death, the power of some people still did not dissipate. After years of fermentation, they woke up from the slumber and turned into a conscious undead. The original power also made them transfer to become death knights and lichs.
However, no matter these people have memories of their lives, they have become another kind of creature. The fragmented memories make these high-level undeads like watching a movie, and the heart that they have died will no longer be beating for those moving pictures.
"Of course, without the guidance of outsiders, the twin towers and the towering high spirits of the Durrag Tower will still not be interested in the living." Boni took a deep breath and said with annoyance, "In fact, the Anmu Guards were a month ago. I found the undead that appeared at the foot of the cloud, but because there were not many, we only thought it was some accident."
"The guidance of outsiders?" Stark frowned.
"The head of Stark, don't you know that some of the undead on the mainland are not naturally formed?" Bonnie sighed. "There will always be some evil wizards who turn themselves into power and longevity. The Undead Sorcerer and the Lich."
"You mean that this thing was done by the undead magician? But what purpose do they have?" Stark touched the scum on his chin and asked without question.

Well, we thought it was just an accident, so Amn’s highest council did not pay attention. But the situation soon became more serious. The undead of the Durag’s tower began to spread and appeared in the toothy forest north of the cloud mountain. And the green wilderness, even threatened the University of Ulden."
Boni's face is a bit embarrassed. After all, he also has a responsibility. The original undead report has his signature on it. "The undead of the Twin Towers spread to the Viper Forest and the Wenhu Valley. The Viper Forest is still nothing, anyway. There are elves to solve this problem. But once the Cloudy Mountains cross the Wenhu River, it is the densely populated two rivers...
There are many human cities in the whole two river deltas. Let's let the undead enter the urban areas. Even if the caravans coming and going to the major roads see these undead, I am afraid that it will cause panic. At that time, the commercial roads in the two rivers will be in a mess, and the ruins of the ruling country can't afford this loss. The rumors about the undead will definitely destroy the current prosperity of Am.

"Then say that your Anm Guard's blockade against the Viper Forest is to block the dead in the north!" Stark suddenly realized that they had already been affected by this undead rebellion.

Amm's Council quickly reacted after learning about this important situation, ordering the Guard to block the Viper Forest and the Lake District near the Twin Towers. Let the members of the Guards unite with the nearby militia to clear all the squadrons. The undead in the cloud mountains." Boni Knight said with a smile.
"After Amam is finished, the only benefit will be Tesser and Kalinshan. Merchants can go to the North Sea after the sea. The commercial pearl of Ang's Jianwan will not be the weather, this is for you." It’s not a good thing for the caravans to be a mercenary of life source!

Stark ignored him and started talking to others on the team channel. The apostles will not stay in Amn for a long time. According to the list of tasks, they may not have the chance to return to Am.
After a long while, Stark pretended to have just returned from his thoughts. He looked at the heavy armor and asked: "How many undead are you encountering?"
"Not a lot, probably only a hundred low-level undead!" Boni blinked, avoiding the look of Stark's interrogation.
Stark looked funny, and although his appearance looked like a big one, it was not an idiot. What's more, the deputy head of the Knights of Amn seems to be not good at lying, thinking about something, his face is directly revealed.
"You should know that even if we promised to help you, but if you find that the situation is not up to your narrative, you can still let go." Stark said with a threat, "Would you like to tell us beforehand, do you want?" Go find someone else!"
Although Stark was stiff, Boni was not angry this time. He is also a warrior. He understands that the warriors who fight in the front line hate being deceived. This kind of deception is accompanied by heavy casualties every time.
"There are really only a hundred undead that we have seen, and most of them are low-level scorpions and zombies. They appear in a small valley valley in Wenhu!" The heavy armor sighed and said, "I will pick up After the report, they took a squadron of cavalry to go to the reclamation. However, these undead are very strange..."
Boni bit his hand on the copper-clad gloves and frowned and said: "The heavy armored cavalry of a squadron is very easy to clean them up, even if it is twice as much. But these undead... seems to know how to cooperate, we are After the charge, he actually fell into the encirclement. There was no speed when the horse did not run, and the cavalry were pulled down one by one, only to fight, and soon lost half of the staff..."
"Do you mean that there are undead magicians or lichs in the valley commanding these low-level undead?" Stark blinked and immediately understood.
"Yes, this is just a speculation, but I will not shirk the responsibility. The terrain of the valley is very restrictive to the cavalry. This time the failure is entirely due to my being too underestimated." Boni's face is alive. , re-exposed a hint of resolute color.
"Never let this undead enter Wenhu, or they will pollute the water. It is only half a day from the nearest camp of the Ambulance. It takes a day to go back and forth..."
"So you are in a hurry to go to the doctor and put your mind on us!" Stark fully understood the beginning and end of the matter, and the team channel was silent. Other apostles, including Robin and Qin Lun, basically believed in Bo. Nie’s rhetoric.
"Ordinary mercenary groups can't handle these undead, but you seem to be an exception." Boni looked at Stark with a meaningful look.
"Oh, why do you say that?" Stark's pupils shrank, and the heavy armored Cavaliers rushed to the hospital and said that if they really saw something, the situation would be different.
To know that Boni is not a magician, nor a church knight, if he is so sensitive to the apostles' temperament, what significance does the apostles hide in the caravan?
"Don't get me wrong, I have a magic item for detection, which was released by the top of the Anm's council. It can cause it to react. In addition to the undead, there is only a breath of strong life."
Bonnie said here ~EbookFREE.me~ The eyes were surprised and said, "The warriors that our cavalry can cause it to react, almost nothing but me, and you..."
"Well, I generally understand that you are talking about the situation, but you still need to discuss with your peers to see if you can help you!" Stark raised his hand and interrupted the words of the heavy armor, turned to look at the caravan , chuckled and said, "In addition, there are several strong people in this team who are not part of the mercenary group. We also need to seek their opinions."
"Give me the answer as soon as possible, time waits for no one!" Boni took a deep breath and said seriously.
After waiting for a long while in the same place, the anxious Bonnie finally waited for Stark's reply, and the mercenary group decided to help the Ambulance. The condition is that after this time, they must be officially recognized by the Amber Guard, and if necessary, they can get shelter from the local garrison in Amn.
After receiving Stark’s reply, Boni was overjoyed and quickly reached an agreement with the caravan. During the mission, Hulan’s caravan had to temporarily stay in the nearby military camp for a few days, waiting for the mercenary group to return. The mercenary group, led by the Amber cavalry, went straight to the undead valley on the edge of Lake Wen.
At the same time, the apostles' soul prints also screamed related information one after another.
