Blue Sword

Distance, ten steps.

The living corpse gave up its suppression of everyone, and the erupting stream of flames quickly rotated clockwise, sweeping towards Asker with surging force.

Ask turned to the right and continued to approach at high speed while running clockwise around the living corpse.

At this speed, his long sword would be able to penetrate the body of the living corpse before the flames burned him.

Distance, five steps.

The living corpse stopped spraying the flames and suddenly swelled up, with invisible gravity ripples vibrating.

Gravity. Shock.

Asker stopped suddenly during the charge, and his sword plunged into the ground.

The gravitational waves that suddenly changed direction were centered on the living corpse and radiated in all directions.

Ask grabbed the sword, and his whole body was pulled sideways by the changed gravity.

The next second, thunderous gunfire sounded.

The elephant bullet hit the chest of the living corpse, completely exploding his upper body.

The spirit head of the living corpse glared at Asik fiercely.

With his powerful spirituality and combat experience, he didn't even see clearly what the opponent was shooting at.

So much so that he couldn't avoid this attack at all.

The body fell from mid-air to the ground and stopped moving.

With a corpse so damaged that he couldn't even move his arms, there was no possibility of victory.

So the demigod behind the scenes immediately abandoned it without hesitation.

The scorching flames gradually extinguished, but Sheila still maintained the strong wind.

Others still maintained a vigilant fighting posture.

Because no one can be sure whether this living corpse that fell to the ground will jump up again in the next second and kill everyone who has no time to prepare.

Only Asker pulled out the long sword from the ground and walked to the living corpse to look at it for a while.

Then he turned around and walked away.

Only then did everyone become convinced that Alexander's body was completely dead and that the manipulator behind the scenes had left, and they quickly rushed forward to surround the body.

Colby took out the Holy Nails of the Night's Watch and pierced the corpse's limbs, which would bind the undead power within it and prevent it from flowing.

There was originally another one that was going to be nailed into the forehead, but the body already had no head.

Phoebus used his good arm to brand the talisman engraved with the secret script of rest on the surface of the corpse's skin.

Make sure this body is completely sealed.

The talisman is carved and burned, solved.

The night watch knights suddenly felt extremely tired.

It's that feeling of powerlessness that seems to have been done countless things, but when you think about it carefully, you find that you have done nothing.

The mercenaries of Cang Qing Sword were delighted to see Aske return with the already awakened Peggy.

Peggy was still a little dazed, as if she hadn't woken up, and she could only stand firm with Aske's help.

Nora quickly went up to check her body, and finally concluded that she was very healthy.

Of course, more detailed information will have to wait until you leave here before asking in detail.

After all, it’s not a good place to stay for a long time.

——————

"Here, there are 60 bullets in total." Nora said holding the small bag, "I picked them all up for you!"

The underworld belongs to a special plane map, and whether it is light visibility, psychic abilities or radio signals, it will be strongly suppressed.

If an extraordinary person possesses an extraordinary item that can affect the underworld, he can distort the space of the underworld to a certain extent, thus confusing the sense of direction of those trapped in it.

For example, if you feel that you are walking in a straight line, it is actually very slanted to the left. Or maybe you feel like you're going in circles, but you're actually spiraling, etc.

Of course, for professional players, how to deal with various maps is the most basic common sense.

The solution Askew chooses here is very simple: the bullet-throwing method.

After separating from the big team, throw a bullet to the ground every time you take a step.

If the follow-up team wants to find him, they only need to follow the bullets on the ground, without any sense of direction at all.

After putting the bullets away again, Asik saw Nora take out another small cloth bag and grab a handful of things from it.

"What is this?" he asked curiously.

"The seeds," Nora said, "They are all seeds of low-level extraordinary plants. I bought them from the Night Watch. They are very cheap. I plan to plant them in Hearth Island and build a large flower garden near the manor."

"In ten years at most, they will be able to bloom beautiful flowers~"

"It's better to buy flowers that grow faster, such as Alpine roses and Christmas garlands." Ask said, "Ten years is too long."

"It's okay, I can wait." Nora hummed a tune and left, seemingly in a happy mood.

In the real plane.

The team who left the Canopy of the Dead and returned to the tent station were warmly welcomed by the remaining night watch knights - although it was only for a few minutes.

After all, the Night Watch Knights don't have the habit of holding celebration banquets.

Soon, the night watchmen began to do their own things again: the knights buried the dead, the priests counted the losses, and the senior officials began to write materials and prepare to report to the headquarters.

"Sir Bryce, this..." At the Night Watch headquarters in Florence, the Secretary of the Commander-in-Chief smiled bitterly after receiving the preliminary report from the Eastern Legion.

"You are saying that there was an undead demigod who tried to resurrect Alexander the Great, took control of his body, and was defeated by you in the end."

"Yes." Commander Bryce said.

"And the casualty rate of your Eastern Army is less than 10% at this time?"

"Yes."

"The body of Alexander the Great was sealed and brought back by you."

"Yes."

"If I report like this, I will definitely be scolded by His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief!" The Secretary of the Commander-in-Chief sighed, "Also, please treat this matter with Your Excellency Bryce with caution."

"The other party 'handed' Alexander's body to you so easily. There must be an ulterior conspiracy involved. Perhaps the body has been tampered with."

"I understand. What I want to explain is that the final battle to seize the body is not easy." Bryce paused, realizing that this statement was completely inconsistent with "their own casualty rate is less than 10%", and quickly added:

"In fact, if it weren't for the foreign aid of a mercenary group, our casualty rate would have been over half, and we might not have been able to recapture Alexander's body."

At this point, overwhelming flames and streams of flames seemed to appear before his eyes, as well as the smell of melting earth and coke.

"Mercenary group?" the secretary asked in confirmation.

"Yes, its name is Cang Qing Sword." Bryce said.

Never heard of it... The secretary typed the words "Cang Qing Sword" on the computer and was about to search on the Internet when he suddenly asked:

"Isn't this mercenary group's combat power concentrated on a few individuals?"

"Yes." Bryce said, "Mainly thanks to the leader, His Excellency Aske."

Sure enough, the secretary thought to herself.

This must be a famous swordsman. For some special purpose (such as training or entertainment), he joined this little-known mercenary group incognito, and just helped the Eastern Legion in this sudden change.

The name Asker must also be a pseudonym, and has no meaning in reporting...

"Sir Bryce, could you please introduce this Asker to me?" the secretary asked.

"Yeah, sure." Bryce knew that this secretary was really well-connected and had extensive contacts with high-level people in various countries, so he was happy to mediate between him and Asker.

"The people are in our camp. I asked Phoebus to bring them here."

More than ten minutes later.

"What? People are gone?!"

"Yes." Phoebus was also sweating profusely. "According to the guard guarding the door, they packed up and left half an hour ago. Because they did not receive orders from above, the guards did not stop them."

Bryce:………………

I have indeed never given a similar order, but you must be a little sensitive after all! The biggest contributor to this undead incident is also a foreign guest. He must stay and win over him first. How could he be let go so easily?

However, he noticed that Phoebus's left hand was in plaster and splint, but the reprimand he originally said was not uttered, and finally turned into a long and sad sigh.
