Chapter 58: Forced to Plan Ahead
Chapter 58: Forced to Plan Ahead (There will be another chapter later)
Kakari is a carpenter in the city of Sagat. To be precise, he was still a carpenter in the city of Sagat two weeks ago.
And now, he was serving as a glorious militiaman of the city of Sage, blocking those despicable Shadow Crow Mercenaries in the makeshift fortifications outside the town of Ilek.
Under their intimidation, the Shadow Crow mercenaries didn't even dare to launch a real attack.
"Is there anything unusual today?"
A soldier walked up to him and asked.
He was a regular soldier from the city of Sage. Recently, these regular soldiers seemed to have been disbanded from their original organization and assigned to the militia to serve as grassroots squad leaders.
Kakari looked at the regular soldier with envy, the shiny soft armor, the sharp steel sword. He hoped that after successfully defeating the Shadow Crow Mercenaries who attempted to invade, he could also become such a regular soldier.
"I'm asking you a question. Is there anything wrong?"
Kakari came back to his senses and answered in his loudest voice.
"Nothing unusual, sir."
"What's going on? I suddenly feel dizzy."
"Unfortunately, this spell takes too long to prepare, and it can only be effective against weaklings like this."
But those mages have a very high status, and even the leader of the militia cannot disobey their orders.
Kakari seemed to hear two mages muttering something not far away.
"It would be great if the secret techniques of the dynasty could still work normally, then the transformation would be much easier."
"It's so itchy..."
"What are those two mages talking about, and what is transmutation?"
"There are too many people, and the magic circle energy is not well prepared. There may be some that cannot be converted."
The soldier reached out and scratched, but only pulled off pieces of flesh, and his complaints gradually turned into meaningless roars.
Kakari heard the conversation between the two mages, and even with his not-so-good brain he could understand that the changes before him were closely related to these two mages.
A strange light appeared on the battlefield, and then the people around suddenly fell down.
"The order is to start now. Even if there are a few that have not been converted, it won't be a big problem."
He only felt a chill rising up, and he saw desire in the soldier's eyes, a desire for his flesh and blood.
"The magic of that dynasty is indeed powerful. It can actually transform living people into undead creatures directly."
Kakari looked at the soldier whom he admired so much. The skin on his face was peeling off in pieces.
"escape!"
A lot of question marks appeared in Kakari's mind.
To be honest, there are some abnormalities. The tightly wrapped mages in the fortifications look very abnormal.
Kakari looked around and saw some militiamen roaring and rushing towards the living people who had not yet undergone any mutation.
The former soldier turned and looked at Kakari.
Kakari would soon learn what transformation really meant.
The thought exploded in Kakari's mind.
But where to run?
There were undeads everywhere, and the few remaining living people were dying one by one. Even from the command post, which Kakari had always believed to be the safest, there were roars of undeads.
Then he saw the flag of the Shadow Crow Mercenaries on the wall of Ilek Town opposite the fortifications.
Kakari jumped off the low wall of the formula. He heard a cracking sound. His left leg should be broken, but for some reason, he didn't feel much pain and could still limp forward.
Behind him, several undead also fell from the low wall and chased after him.
Kakari ran towards the town of Ilek. He saw the Shadow Crow Mercenaries on the city wall setting up crossbows and aiming at this side.
"There's hope." This thought came to Kakari's mind.
"Help, help..."
He wanted to shout, but only a low, hoarse roar came out of his throat.
Kakari was stunned. He looked down and saw that his skin was peeling off, with only a layer of skin barely attached to his left leg.
"No wonder it doesn't hurt."
This was the last thought that flashed through Kakari's mind.
A crossbow arrow drew a beautiful arc and penetrated his forehead.
"shoot arrows"
Behind Kakari was a dark tide of undead souls, pressing towards Ilek. These militiamen, who originally just wanted to protect their homes, were now advancing under the control of the necromancer.
The crossbows of the Shadow Crows could knock them down temporarily, but with the evil magic of the Necromancer, the fallen corpses would stand up again after a short while and rush towards the town in front of them again.
Lanya stood on the town wall. Beside him, the priests of the Sun God Cult had already begun to prepare their magic.
“The situation is pretty much as expected.”
Although the attack of the undead in front of them looked terrifying, they were all low-level zombies. The highest were just some zombie warriors transformed from officers, no more than level three.
It was obvious that the undead were not fully prepared and were now forced to start their plans ahead of time.
The knight obviously did not expect that his identity as a vampire would be revealed so early.
Normally, even if there is some evidence pointing to his connection with the undead, his noble status would allow him to maneuver for a while. It would take at least three to five months before the kingdom could make a clear response.
"Signal them to Reinhardt."
Not long after Reinhardt and his team returned to Ilek Town, they were on the road again. They saw the signal flare in the sky.
"According to the plan, the priest will use magic to open a path for us. Ella will be responsible for blocking the low-level undead reinforcements. The rest will be left to me and Krigo."
Not far in front of Reinhardt were five necromancers in black robes. They were using magic circles to continuously revive the undead creatures "killed" by the Shadow Crows outside the town of Ilek.
The mages were not careless. They kept a lot of undead around them to protect them from being disturbed while casting spells.
Unfortunately, a plan that was forced to start ahead of schedule was bound to have its omissions, and the guardians around these necromancers were nothing more than the militiamen and officers who had just been converted.
There is nothing we can do about it. There is no perfect plan in this world. As long as we take action, we will inevitably take risks.
Of course, the same is true of Reinhard and his team's actions.
The priest completed his spell, and a beam of scorching light shot towards the necromancer not far away.
The undead gathered in front of the Necromancer in layers, blocking the attack for them, but the price was that the undead near them were briefly cleared out.
The priest was breathing heavily and became listless. This spell temporarily drained his strength. He could not provide any help in the battle today.
Reinhardt and Kriego have already rushed towards the group of necromancers.
The surrounding undead roared and tried to rush over to protect their master, but one spell after another stopped them.
The necromancers sensed something was wrong and prepared to flee, but it was too late. Kriego and Reinhardt caught up with them.
Neither the sword in Reinhardt's hand nor the claws in Krigo's hand could be resisted by the weak body of the necromancer. After a few minutes, all the necromancers were dealt with by the two "people".
Low-level undead without their commanders are nothing to be feared.
"Army attack."
The Shadow Crows received Lania's order and rushed out.
The undead that would not resurrect again did not pose an obstacle to them, and soon they passed Reinhardt who was resting on the spot and headed towards the direction of Sagat City.
