Calamity Game: Cleanup Man? No I'm The Villain

"That so-called secret road is here?" Nevin Moore looked at the lake in front of him and felt a little unbelievable.

"You guys, go down and investigate." Keland called out a few scavengers to enter the lake to investigate.

This lake was a forty-minute march away from his shadow fortress, and the Shadow Fiends didn't need to ingest water, they could directly obtain the energy they needed to survive from the shadows.

The location here is indeed not too close to the Shadow Fortress, so naturally no one is stationed.

As for the Dire Outposts near the Shadow Fortress, they are farther away from this lake. Moreover, no matter whether it is the Lich in the Lich Cemetery or the Balrog on the Burning Altar, they don't need to drink water like Shadow Fiend.

To the Dire Outpost around it, this lake is completely a dark area under the lights, and no one would have imagined that there is actually a secret passage hidden inside it.

Ten minutes later, the submerged scavengers resurfaced.

"Legion Commander, there is indeed a secret passage below. We felt the energy fluctuations of the Radiant spell nearby, so we didn't go too deep. It's a secret passage..." The scavenger soldier carefully told what he saw.

"I understand, you guys go back to the team first."

After Collander finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Nevin Moore. There used to be night-gaunts stationed in this lake, and that was before the other party became the shadow lord.

The Scourge Legion created by many night-gaunts, its racial organization is not fixed, those night-gaunts who have become legions and have fortresses may be challenged by other night-gaunts at any time.

As long as there are other night-gaunts who challenge the superior and win, the challenger can get everything from the superior.

It seems that becoming a member of the Scourge has no benefits other than prestige, but you have to worry about the challenges of other races all the time, but in fact, those who fail the challenger will become the vassal of the superior, and this process will last for fifty years as long as.

During this period, vassals can initiate a challenge every five years, and if they succeed, they can get rid of their status as vassals.

Of course, vassal is just a nice word on the surface. The loser is essentially the slave of the superior. Fifty years of slave life is enough to change any night-dire race.

The Shadow Fortress of Nevin Moore was actually ruled by a Nightmare race called Gargoyles, and the Shadow Demons at that time were the vassals of Gargoyles.

The two special abilities that were unique to the Shadow Demon, the 'Shadow Attachment' and 'Overlapping Shadow' mentioned by Colander, were both developed with the help of the Gargoyle.

This kind of "help" even permanently reversed the original talent of the Shadow Demon, allowing the Shadow Demons born in the future to be born with these two abilities.

By the way, in the earliest historical records of Night Dire, the body of the scavenger did not have a special body tissue called 'wrapped armor'.

If "Shadow Possession" is to allow the Shadow Fiend to possess other night-gaunts, increasing all attributes while turning them into a barrier to resist attacks, then "Overlapping Shadow" is to allow the Shadow Fiend to possess the body of the Shadow Fiend,

But unlike after the end of the "Shadow Attachment", all the Shadow Fiends attached to the target may still survive, the Shadow Fiends who use the "Overlapping Shadow", except for the individual as the carrier, the rest of the Shadow Fiends will die completely.

Because for Shadow Demon, it is essentially a kind of mutual cannibalism.

As for the shadow demon who became the carrier, although the combat power has not been greatly improved, due to the attachment relationship of the same species, the body will become extremely huge.

On the battlefield, it is a natural target and the best helper to attract firepower.

Back then, with the help of Shadow Demon, the gargoyles were able to reach the status of being close to scavengers for a time, and the scenery was unparalleled for a while.

It's just that this kind of scenery is built on the corpses of countless Shadow Demons. This period of history is an inescapable shadow for all Shadow Demons who have experienced that age.

Fortunately, except for Nevin Moore, those shadow demons who experienced the rule of gargoyles have all died out, and the newly born shadow demons have not experienced this dark history.

It can be said that Nevin Moore contributed a lot to the Shadow Demon's progress to this position. He has communicated with the unknown world "Soul Abyss", and he can absorb the souls of the dead around him and sacrifice them to the "Soul Abyss". Become your own source of strength.

Where did the shadow demons of that era get enough souls to overthrow the gargoyle's rule? The answer is already obvious.

Through the self-sacrifice of a large number of shadow demons, Nevin Moore gained enough power to overthrow the gargoyle, but this also became an eternal pain in his heart.

That's why Nevin Moore was so angry when Kelande mentioned shadows and double shadows.

If he could, he sincerely hoped that Kelland had never been to the Shadow Fortress, but what the other party told him was true. If he didn't attack the secret passage stronghold of the Tribunal, the Shadow Demon would probably be completely wiped out by the Tribunal.

He overthrew the gargoyle's rule for only a dozen years, and now the entire shadow demon race is in crisis again.

But there is still a turning point for all of this, as long as he can absorb enough souls in the next surprise attack, then he can use those souls to forcibly open the communication with the "Soul Abyss", and at that time, the Lord of Shadows will return again... …

"Is there something on my face? I need you to look at me like this..." Nevin Moore met Colander's gaze.

"No, I just want you to go into the water and check the spell. If it has any device that triggers the alarm, it will be difficult for us to reach the opponent's stronghold."

Nevin Moore glared at the other party, then turned into a shadow and escaped into the water.

After watching the other party leave, Koland looked at Manfrik: "Wait for the next charge, do you choose to be with me in the front, or choose to be in the rear?"

"I thought you had forgotten how to charge in front of the army." Manfrik responded, and the result of his choice was already clear.

Colander withdrew his gaze and began to command the scavengers army to form an array. Under his control, Yan Feichen was deliberately placed in the rear position, with his subordinates beside him.

Yan Feichen couldn't understand the army formation made by Kelande for a while, the head of the Sixth Army.

Because Koland did not split any divisions made by the two armies, but mixed formations, which meant that the probability of being attacked by the two teams in subsequent raids was the same.

It is even possible that because the number of the Sixth Army is higher than that of the Eighth Army, the former will suffer greater battle losses than the latter.

Kelland is willing to cooperate with Yan Feichen to plan to entrap Manfrik on the battlefield, but he is unwilling to harm the opponent's army. Such a contradictory personality is really unpredictable.

But this is a good thing for Yan Feichen. In his opinion, the worse the relationship between Kollander and Manfrik, the better, so that he can get help from the other party in the follow-up planning.

While thinking about it, Nevin Moore's figure had reappeared at the forefront of the team, and he had quietly deciphered the spell cast by the court.

"Let's go!" Kelland jumped into the water without hesitation, followed by Manfrik and Nevern Moore.

When the three commanders on the surface all entered the water, the troops that had already assembled began to march, and the prelude to the war had quietly begun.
