Chapter 769: ?The City of Night

"Although the shadow energy can delay the physical decay rate of the undead soldiers to a certain extent, it does not mean that they are not decayed at all. If they fail to absorb enough energy to turn the bones into ashes before the corpses completely decay, they will not completely fall apart. It will be extremely weak. The Undead Empire previously only focused on advancing without paying attention to this. Now the first few batches of undead soldiers have collectively entered a severely decayed state, which has caused a lot of blows and impacts on their military strength."
Shaun was not so much answering Marshal Dickron’s question, as he was sorting out the intelligence absorbed from the Soulfire of Orytandu,
This is the real reason they agreed to sign a truce with the East Odin Empire. They need time to build a true undead army."
"So that's the case!" Marshal Dickron suddenly realized, "We should really take the initiative to make things worse. Let's start with their other advance army. When we withdraw, I believe the other three marshals have already led the team to suppress it. Up!"
"I think so too!" Shaun laughed loudly, "They despise us, and they must pay the corresponding price!"
After the Guards had completed a beautiful encirclement and rescue, they did not try to push forward the No. 7 Ash Tower, but withdrew in the direction of the No. 1 Ash Tower.
The Guards are now running out of ammunition and food.
The continuous fierce battle has dragged the soldiers into fatigue.
The Holy Light Cannonball and Holy Light Grenade had already consumed seven or eighty-eight when pushing the fifth bone tower.
It is supported by legion combat skills, the spear of the ancestral spirit of the battle artifact, and the sacred equipment that Sean has refitted with the power of the new law.
This is also the reason why the mortar did not show off at all when the Undead Legion of Ori Tandu was hit, and the holy light grenade just threw it for one round, and there was no movement.
In this state, to forcefully push the No. 7 Ash Bone Pagoda, that is, to fill it with the soldiers' lives.
When Sean and Marshal Dickron meet, they are ready to focus on the Ash Tower One that has become an isolated island.
However, the Guards were here to beat the drums, not the main force to attack the No. 1 Ashtray.
Marshal McGee led the Skullcrusher Legion, Marshal Locke led the Cliff Legion, and Marshal Yar's Ancestral Spirit Legion.
After the round with the three legions.
The first thing Sean did was to upgrade their banner to the banner of the Heroic Spirit.
With the more than 2,000 points of power gained from pushing the No. 6 gray bone tower, Sean spent 150 points to transform 15 gray bone war horses, and save them for future research. The rest is not wasted. Just prepare for this time.
As for the entire process of attacking the No. 1 Ashtray.
There is no need to describe more.
Just one Guard Corps pushed down their five Ash Towers in succession, and by the way, they ate an elite advance legion.
Not to mention how terrifying the forces that burst out after the four main armies converge.
After the four artillery battalions were set up under the arch guards of the four major legions, more than two hundred artillery pieces of all kinds were bombarded against the vanguard army of Prince Chagan under the guard tower 1.
Such fierce firepower, let alone a super energy giant, even ten or eight is not a problem.
The Vanguard Corps hadn't blown up yet, but Ash Tower One was blown up first.
The vanguard army exposed to the air has no chance of winning.
Then there was a scene where Sean and the others were dumbfounded.
The entire undead army kneeled and surrendered.
The prisoners have seen a lot of them, and it is the first time for the undead to see them.
Sean had to summon the other four giants to his side and convened an emergency military meeting.
"What do the marshals think about this matter? Do we accept or not accept these prisoners?" Xiao En asked straightforwardly.
Although he did not show any fluctuations in his expression, it can be seen from his action to summon the four marshals, that he is a little hesitant about this matter.
"Come, why not?" Marshal McGee is always so straightforward, and sometimes has a weird thought. "We have seen a lot of living prisoners, but it's the first time to see dead prisoners. If we bring them back to the territory, That's a face-saving thing."
"This matter needs to be cautious." Marshal Locke habitually squeezed his gray beard and said, "After all, life and death are different. Once they are accepted, how should we deal with them? Put them in prison forever? Or are we going to recruit them and let them be used by us? Even if they do, do we really dare to use them?"
"I don't think we have anything to say about these bones. It's the easiest thing to just blast them to the sky." Marshal Yar sullenly expressed his opinion.
In the traditional concept of the Kentana, death is a very sacred thing.
The brave will change another way and continue to guard their race.
The undead empire's breaking of the boundary between life and death is undoubtedly a conflict with their traditional ideas, and they are regarded as a cowardly behavior to escape death.
"I think the key to accepting the fall is whether we can profit from it. If it is not profitable, it will cause trouble for ourselves. Of course, it is more cost-effective to eliminate them cleanly. If we can extract more from them If you are interested, it’s okay to leave them for a while, anyway, it’s easy to deal with them at that time."
Marshal Dickron threw the question back into Sean's hands, "It's just that this kind of enemy is too special. Whether it is useful or not has to be judged by the lord. In our hands, there is only one cut."
When Dickron spoke at the end, he clearly meant something.
Previously, he had seen with his own eyes that Sean had turned the enemy's gray horse into a tame tool that could be used by them.
Dickron’s opinion made Sean make up his mind:
Then stay for now. After all, the other party was once a prince. Even if it is useless in research in the future, he may have his own uniqueness in targeting the undead empire. Useful, but only useful to those few undead and high-level undead, they will be taken down, the undead soldiers all executed on the spot."
Although Shaun possesses the power of the law, he can transform those gray bone knights and gray bone elites into his own undead soldiers.
But for him, the power of the law is more precious, and it is not luxurious enough to apply it.
The four marshals took their orders, and in this indecisive decision, they would not entangle with Sean.
In the face of absolute strength, Prince Chagan had no room for bargaining, and he accepted it obediently. The Yongye Army leader only accepted a few of their undead as prisoners, but the Undead Legion had to destroy the conditions on the spot.
After all, to them, the Undead Legion is just something outside of their bodies. As long as they are still alive, they will have the opportunity to form a new Undead Legion.
If it is dead, then everything is empty.
As for the nonsense that they will be reborn in the goddess after the fire of the soul is extinguished, that is, to deceive those stupid guys, at least Prince Chagan doesn't believe it.
After dismantling the No.1 Ash Tower.
Yongyejun led a new round of advancement towards the Undead Empire.
This time they split into two.
The Guards Corps, filled with ammunition from the three legions, still form an army alone. Sean’s energy clone is accompanied by an ancestral spear, using his maneuvering speed to crazily intersperse in the direction of the undead empire, preparing before they react. , Pushing several towers in their hinterland.
The method used is still the coordination of the legionary combat skills and the ancestral spear. There are more deputy marshals on the way to the territory. As long as one more champion knight and Dirkron alternately use the legionary combat skills, this The combination is even more perfect.
The three legions became one army, slowly advancing forward, anyway, starting from the No. 7 Ash Pagoda, one after the other.
The super energy giants summoned by the undead relying on the gray bone tower could not hold up the combat skills of the three legions at the same time.
It wasn't until the final harvest that Sean's soul war beast came out.
The power of the law of harvest was transferred to them as soon as they changed hands.
With the experience of the armed guards, the order of investment is naturally more planned.
The first to rise to the top is naturally the Heroic Spirit Banner, which can not only increase the safety of the souls of fallen soldiers, but also enhance the lethality of the Legion's combat skills.
The top heroic banner also has a hidden feature.
Its suction to the soul is indistinguishable, and the fire of the soul is also a kind of soul.
After the bodies of those undead soldiers were shattered, if they were too close to the Heroic Spirit Banner, there was a chance that they would be absorbed directly.
For Eternal Night Soldiers, the Heroic Soul Banner is a place of warmth to protect their souls.
For the soul fire of the undead soldiers, the Heroic Soul Banner is an incinerator. Unfortunately, their soul fire is attracted to it, waiting to be burned out as fuel and becoming the cornerstone of the growth of the Heroic Soul Banner.
Then came the sacred military emblem, sacred artillery and sacred weapons.
In short, the more towers you push, the easier it will be to push the next tower.
They pushed back all the way, not only cutting off the tentacles of the undead empire reaching into the Kogel grassland, but even pushing into their core hinterland, until the posture of the night city,
...
The city of night.
The name is worthy of the name, the sky here is in the dark all day.
The emergence of this unique phenomenon is naturally due to the gray bone tower and the undead canopy formed by it.
The same Ash Bone Pagoda, compared to the one pushed down by the leader of the Yongye Army, is not at the same level.
The gray bone tower here is obviously taller, the sky of the undead formed is naturally higher, and the shadow energy filled with it is naturally more concentrated.
Most importantly, it belongs to the core of the Undead Empire.
The Ash Bone Tower was not like the ones pushed down by the Yongye army leader, but stood there thinly.
Instead, they criss-crossed, using ash bone towers to form a city dedicated to the undead.
It now occupies no less than 100,000 square kilometers.
And it is still expanding outward at a steady rate.
The gray mist is entwined, that is only the primary form of the undead canopy. If someone goes deep into the night city, they will find that this place is not completely in a dense fog as I imagined.
The dense fog here is floating in the sky hundreds of meters, forming a thick curtain-like existence here, which does not completely shield the sun, but only filters it.
There is only a certain substance in the sunlight that is lethal to them, not completely harmful to them.
Just like they are bathed in the sun, not only will they not be hurt, on the contrary, the soul fire can absorb part of the essence and grow slowly.
The higher undead canopy played the same role as the moon.
Do not.
More precisely, its effect is still above the moon.
Because it is tailor-made for the immortal spirit.
As long as you bathe for a few hours a day, the sunlight purified by the curtain of the undead is enough to maintain the daily consumption of those middle and low-level immortals, so that their soul fire will not be exhausted over time.
The immortal spirit here is not like people outside imagined, standing idly there, always preparing for the killing.
Most of the undead spirits are busy in an orderly manner.
What they do is very simple-collect, transport, and process bones.
These bones are exactly the same as those used to build the Ash Tower.
If Sean saw what happened here, he would definitely be surprised.
The undead empire is obviously taking the road of industrial production. After initial processing of various materials, they are transported to the construction site for combined construction.
This method seems more troublesome, but it can achieve the purpose of rapid construction.
This also explains the reason why the gray bone towers of the Undead Empire are advancing so fast. As long as they have sufficient building materials, they can even turn the entire continent into the night capital.
The premise is that they have so many building materials.
Don't forget that their building materials are not the earth and rocks that can be seen everywhere, but bones.
It is no exaggeration to call the undead empire the empire rising from the corpse of the East Odin Empire.
The nutrients of the East Odin Empire have been absorbed by them and they are almost used. It will not be long before the undead empire has to fall into a financial crisis-the corpse is their finances.
"Your Majesty, since last month, the supplies brought back by the search troops from outside have begun to drop sharply, and now only 50% is left. I believe this situation will further deteriorate, within three months. The supplies brought back by the search troops from outside will be reduced sharply to 10% until there is no more harvest." Prince Zana replied respectfully, like a finance minister, holding a thick account book.
The fact is also true, he is now the Minister of Finance of the Undead Empire.
Although Prince Zana was the same as Prince Chagan, Empress Narentoya was personally transformed into an undead.
But it does not mean that they become 100% senior undead.
Prince Zana was one of the tragedies. Although he became an undead, he did not have the ability to transform others into an undead.
Even if it is sitting on a powerful force ~EbookFREE.me~, it doesn't make much sense.
But Prince Zana has his own way of survival.
That is to take refuge under the banner of Empress Narentoya without a second heart, and get shelter from her.
As a huge empire, the undead empire will continue to develop as long as it wants to grow, as long as it wants to be an empire.
It is impossible to have military power alone.
Sure enough, what he learned before his death found a new way for him.
A finance minister who is in the center is indispensable to an empire.
Prince Zana is definitely within the undead empire, and a few are just low-level undead, but have a lofty identity. Even those high-level undead who sit on the elite undead legion are respectful of them, and dare not neglect the slightest.
If the other party deliberately creates difficulties when allocating resources in the future, they are likely to fight against Lie Ri without a sacred shelter. That is two different things.
