Blue Sword

Iberian Peninsula, southern coastline, near Almeria.

After a long journey, the Cangqing Sword arrived at this port city near the coastline.

This place was originally built by the Carthaginians of the Southern Continent. It was once a famous port of the Solomon Empire in the Fourth Age. Now it has once again fallen into the hands of the Kingdom of the Undead in the Southern Continent.

Before they arrived near the city, everyone saw a huge column of thick black smoke rising straight up from the center of the city and spreading to all directions at the height of the sky. This was the unique "dark sky" of the Kingdom of the Undead. It was said that it could not only prevent the Holy See's " The line of sight of the surveillance satellites of the "All-Seeing Eye" can also effectively block the spread of any electromagnetic waves, making most communication tools automatically ineffective under the dark sky.

Because of this, the Holy See as far away as the Italian peninsula was unable to obtain much effective intelligence information about the southern part of the Iberian Peninsula that was occupied by the undead army at this time.

According to the southern route plan drawn up by Eleanor, everyone in Cang Qing Sword should choose to venture into the city to find out information about the Andalucia region, and then make secondary revisions to the plan based on this information to reduce subsequent risks.

Near the city gate of Almeria, everyone saw the unique relief arch of the Undead Empire. Skeletons, Vampires, Ghosts and Corpse Witches, each of the four major races' ferocious and strange appearances are vividly depicted on the reliefs.

Two tall skeleton soldiers stood guard on both sides of the arch, one on the left and one on the right. Blue flames danced in the deep hollow eye sockets. As human beings, the local citizens huddled up in fear and waited in long lines to enter the city, not daring to get too close to the two skeletons.

An invisible banshee was flying back and forth along the long queue entering the city, constantly passing through the bodies of these humans. Through the banshee's unique possession perception ability, she can detect whether the fear in the hearts of those who enter the city is mixed with other malicious intentions, so as to screen and identify spies who may be mixed in the team.

Suddenly she bumped into something hard and was immediately bounced away with some dizziness.

In the team entering the city, Eleanor also raised her head and looked in the direction of the banshee.

Although the banshee still remained invisible, the mist of will emitted by Eleanor told her that something did exist there, and that it was bounced away after hitting her just now.

The banshee that suddenly hit the wall re-floated vigilantly, carrying a certain malicious and evil aura, and slowly floated in front of Eleanor again, its empty pupils staring fixedly into her azure eyes.

Eleanor frowned and looked forward, her gaze passing through the invisible banshee and landing on the ground - although she couldn't see it, she was sure that the thing was standing in front of her.

Do you want to reach out and try to touch it?

Just when she was hesitating, a slender arm suddenly stretched out from the side and grabbed the invisible banshee's neck unceremoniously.

roll!

The Banshee King possessing Mi'er instilled his malice into mental information and quickly penetrated into the body of the invisible Banshee. The other party was immediately like a sardine encountering a catfish. It flew dozens of meters away in terror, then turned around and disappeared behind the arch without looking back.

For the undead without complex minds, it is almost difficult to resist the oppression of the lower ones by the superior transcendent beings. They do not even have any consciousness of "the lower ones overcome the upper ones", which is completely different from humans who are accustomed to using tactics.

The skulls of the skeleton soldiers standing on both sides of the arch suddenly moved slightly.

They noticed the succubus running away in panic, but the skull's incomplete mental body was unable to discern what was going on, so they turned their attention to the direction where the strange thing happened.

However, Medea quickly shot out two spiritual threads and effortlessly and secretly seized control of the two skeletons without even being noticed by their owners.

"In this city, there is an undead demigod stationed. His race is a corpse witch." Medea lowered her voice and said through the psychic communication channel, "I read their soul fire. They are the third generation of the demigod. Summoned by an apprentice to resurrect the dead."

"Everyone, be careful. Mi'er is on guard against accidents. Medea maintains control and doesn't show any signs of surprise." Ask ordered.

So everyone continued to mix in the team, and it took about ten minutes to pass through the arch safely from the center of the two skeleton soldiers who were controlled.

In the city of Almeria, groups of carriages stopped in the middle of the road, blocking the road as if it were a traffic jam. Citizens invariably covered their mouths and noses with headscarves and quickly passed by with their heads down on both sides of the road, trying not to inhale the strong stench that filled the air.

All the carriages carried wooden coffins, and the stench inside almost rose to the sky.

"What's inside..." Nora asked in a low voice.

"Materials." The Banshee King said calmly, "Materials that can be transformed into undead."

Everyone:………………

"In fact, the materials used to transform the undead have very strict requirements on the quality of the corpse." As if he didn't care about the disgusting expressions shown by the girls, the Banshee King continued, "Ordinary human corpses are completely insufficient to support the undead. At least you have to have some extraordinary strength."

"Generally speaking, corpses with higher physical strength will be used to make skeleton warriors or ghouls; those with strong spiritual strength will extract their spiritual bodies and use them to make wraiths or banshees."

"So, the undead generally don't attack ordinary civilians?" Eleanor asked in shock.

"That's right." The Banshee King smiled, "In other words, they don't like ordinary people at Lv. The more powerful undead can be produced."

"Secondly, there are those who have not taken magic potions, but have absorbed extraordinary power in their daily lives, such as eating spiritual materials by mistake, or killing creatures with extraordinary power. In the corpses of such people, although their bodies are The extraordinary power of the undead has not been fully digested, and the spirituality is quite mixed, but the number is thousands of times greater than the former, so it instead constitutes the main material of the undead army."

"As for the common people who have nothing, they will be useless after death. They can create wealth through labor while alive." The Banshee King pointed at the frightened and hurried common people around and said with a smile, "So you see, they are all scared to death. , are afraid that the undead will kill them, but actually there is no need to worry at all.”

So the undead actually don’t massacre human civilians on a large scale? Eleanor was in a daze for a moment, but quickly regained her composure.

Even so, living people still should not accept the rule of the dead, not to mention the possibility of even the corpse being desecrated. As long as the war between the Kingdom of the Undead and the Kingdom of Aragon and Castile does not stop, the killing and death on this continent will continue.

And this time, I will stop this war...even if it is by means of war!
