Daqin: I, Fusu, can summon the undead

Chapter 68: The Ghost Army's First Appearance
On the walls of Noordah.

The soldiers and civilians in the city all looked at the dark clouds gradually floating towards the distant sky, their faces heavy.

They all knew that beneath the dark clouds was the evil undead army that had destroyed their capital, and now was coming to destroy them.

Looking at the dark clouds gradually approaching in the distant sky, and the soldiers and mobilized civilians on the city wall with nervous and heavy expressions, Nuili gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. The tension made his palms soaked with sweat.

The soldiers and civilians had no idea that among the attacking undead there were powerful bone dragons, and there were more than a dozen of them.

Amid the heavy and tense waiting, dark clouds in the distance finally approached the sky of Nuda City.

The soldiers and civilians on the city wall also saw the undead army attacking from the dark clouds.

"Gudong!"

The sound of swallowing saliva continued to be heard on the walls of Nuda City.

The ghostly skeleton soldiers were wrapped in rags, wearing worn-out armor, and holding rusty weapons. Their yellowed skulls without a trace of flesh and blood and transparent bodies had dark blue flames burning in their eye sockets.

Just looking at this appearance, coupled with the darkness shrouded by dark clouds, it is as if the underworld is reflected on the human world, making people feel a chill in their hearts.

At this time, the undead were already approaching the city.

Led by the terrifying ghost Kasa, the ghost army with translucent bodies stood at the forefront of the undead.

"Roar……"

The roar of the undead sounded outside the city.

Under the nervous gaze of the soldiers on the city wall, the 10,000 ghosts of the front army launched an attack directly on the city.

There was no preparation, no delay, no siege equipment, not even a ladder.

"Archers at the ready!"

Looking at the 10,000 ghost soldiers gradually approaching the city wall, Nuili shouted orders.

The nervous soldiers on the city wall drew their longbows and aimed at the ghost soldiers approaching from the bottom of the city.

"put!"

When the ghost soldiers entered the archers' shooting range, Nuili immediately gave the order to shoot.

In an instant, arrows shot towards the ghost soldiers attacking from outside the city like waves of seedlings.

As the soldiers on the city wall looked at each other with anticipation turning into disbelief,

Those ghosts didn't dodge or evade the arrows. The dense arrows kept hitting the rushing ghosts, but they went straight through their bodies and stuck into the ground, failing to cause any harm to these ghost soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, in the desperate eyes of Nuili and the frightened eyes of the soldiers and civilians on the city wall, the ghosts that rushed to the foot of the city directly penetrated the city wall and rushed into the city, or flew up into the air, ignoring the arrows on the city wall, flew onto the city wall, and killed the frightened soldiers and civilians on the city wall.

Some soldiers mustered up the courage to swing their swords at the ghost that flew onto the city wall.

But the next second, the sword passed through the ghost's body unhindered and did not hurt the ghost at all.

Under his horrified gaze and the unbelievable and fearful gazes of the soldiers beside him, the ghost swung the sword in his hand, pierced through the long sword he raised to block, and slashed him hard.

It split his armor and slashed his chest.

Blood spurted out, but it passed through the ghost's body without any hindrance.

"Them? They can't be killed!"

The soldiers nearby who had witnessed the tragic death of their comrades shouted in fear, dropped their weapons and tried to escape.

But a pair of translucent hands stretched out from the city wall beneath their feet, grabbed the soldier who wanted to escape, and made it impossible for him to move.

"no, do not want!"

Looking at the withered appearance of the ghost rushing towards him, the soldier who had his weapon thrown away could only beg for mercy helplessly.

"puff!"

The next second, the ghost's sword swung without hesitation, slashing the soldier's throat. The same thing was repeated on the wall. The ghost soldiers completely ignored the enemy's attacks on the wall, and also ignored their blocking and defense, while the ghost soldiers' attacks could actually chop the enemy.

Under such an unequal gap, the soldiers and civilians on the city wall could not even hold on for twenty seconds before they were slaughtered by the ghost soldiers.

After clearing the enemies on the north wall, ten thousand ghost soldiers formed a line and cleared the city like a comb.

The ghost soldiers can break through walls and kill people. The enemies in the city can't even resist, let alone block the attacks.

It took the ghost soldiers only five minutes to massacre the entire city of Nuda, leaving no one or animal alive. Their speed was so fast that it was like running across the city.

Five minutes later, when the city gate was opened by the ghost soldiers, the 100,000 skeletons outside the city began to enter the city, and their only mission was to collect the bodies and transport them back to Kaandor.

"Next target, Kodomo City!"

The terrifying ghost Kasa looked at the map and decided on the next target of attack.

------------

On the other side, the dark forest.

After receiving the news from Saruman, the elves of Mirkwood gritted their teeth and gathered 20,000 troops again, and took the only remaining 20 elven crossbows that could deal with dragons, preparing to support Dol Guldur.

Looking at these compatriots going to the war, the Elf Queen, together with the remaining female elves and children, clasped their hands together and prayed silently for them.

Originally, the Elf King Oropher had led most of the warriors to join the allied forces to fight against the Dark Lord Sauron.

Now Mirkwood has gathered almost all the male elves who can take part in the war, and only then has it gathered these 20,000 warriors.

This time, the warriors have to deal with the undead who are not afraid of death and the powerful bone dragons. The danger is even greater than the expedition against the evil lord Sauron.

But... they had to go.

Because they knew that if they could not successfully stop the 100,000 undead and the ten skull dragons, and allow the undead to successfully reinforce the Dark Lord Sauron, then not only would the war be prolonged, but the allied forces would also likely be attacked from both sides.

The Elf King and his compatriots who participated in the war would be in great danger.

The best situation now is to stop the undead from reinforcing the Dark Lord Sauron, first eliminate the Dark Lord Sauron's dark forces, and then focus on dealing with the newly emerged undead.

"Queen!"

Just as the remaining elves were praying for their compatriots who were going to the battle, an elf came in a hurry with an anxious look on his face. "Queen! There is an army of 200,000 undead coming towards us from the north! They are moving very fast and have already approached the edge of the forest!"

"Two hundred thousand undead!"

Upon hearing the report, the queen was shocked.

The praying elves around also looked pale.

The elves who were heading out for the battle gradually stopped.

Two hundred thousand undead souls was definitely a huge number for the elves in Mirkwood, let alone Mirkwood at this time.

At this time, all the elves turned their eyes to the Elf Queen, waiting for her decision.

The Elf Queen's face looked very ugly. Even if they could reach their destination, they would suffer heavy casualties and even lose their homes.

Now she has four choices.

The first was to continue sending troops to stop the undead from reinforcing the Dark Lord Sauron, while he himself led the women and young elves of Mirkwood to resist the undead.

The second is to give up stopping the Undead from reinforcing the Dark Lord Sauron and try their best to resist the Undead invasion.

The third is to give up blocking the undead from reinforcing the Dark Lord Sauron, and let the Elf King lead his army to leave the Allied Forces and rescue Mirkwood.

Fourth, abandon Mirkwood.

'Choose the greater good, or choose to preserve Mirkwood!'

The Elf Queen was struggling between her conscience and her desires in her mind.
