Chapter 294 Undead Siege (1)
In extreme physical and mental pain, Silina was transformed by Engus into a special kind of undead - the Torment Priest.
An evil undead creature transformed by severe pain and huge hatred. When death stopped Silina's heart and extinguished her breath of life, her soul was attacked by Engus when she was at a loss. Conscripted, and later returned in undead form.
Priests of Torment possess memories of their lives and are driven by their former self-awareness, and they will obey the commands of any dark being who transforms them into undead.
It is worth mentioning that the Pain Priest has a characteristic. The more pain she feels, the greater her undead power will become.
To know.
The undead have no physical pain.
Undead without memories rarely suffer from mental pain.
And Engus took advantage of this.
He deceived Silina and destroyed everything Silina held dear.
In the end, he even had to enslave Silina so that she could continue to be used by him and do things that harmed living beings. This would be a pain that penetrated deep into the soul of Silina who had memories.
But she can't get rid of Engus's control. The more creatures she kills, the more painful she will be. The more painful she is, the stronger and more unstoppable she will become, eventually forming an endless cycle that is completely beneficial to Engus.
“Perfect work~”
Engus looked with satisfaction at the girl in front of him who covered her face and cried bitterly. Her skin was no longer bright and bright, but turned into a blue-gray that revealed death. Her hair was no longer gentle and smooth, they became dry and as if straw.
The girl's face is not as beautiful as before.
Her facial features were corrupted by the plague, and what she cried was foul-smelling pus instead of tears.
This appearance is extremely terrifying to normal humans, but it is very beautiful to the undead.
"Now you have become more beautiful, Xilina..."
Engus reached out and pulled off the girl's palm covering her face. The loose skin peeled off along the wrist with just a gentle pull, revealing the purple-red muscle texture and dry blood vessels.
"Woooooooo..."
Silena, Priest of Pain, just cried.
There were no eyes visible in the dark eye sockets, only pus and blood sliding down his cheeks. Even if he couldn't see the eyes, Engus could still feel the strong hatred, and this hatred was also constantly strengthening the undead body of Silina. strength.
"That's it, Xilinna, keep your hatred towards me, look at this city... look at these undead... Jie Jie Jie...".
No more light can be seen in the sky.
The cloud of death obscured the sun.
In the dark city, only the painful sobs of the dead could be heard, as well as the pairs of soul flames swaying and flickering like will-o'-the-wisps.
Seeing such a scene, Xilinna's face became even more ferocious, filled with resentment.
"The next step is to attack the capital of Kalanli..."
Engus took out a very detailed map and looked at it carefully.
This map was drawn by Silina. It not only marked the specific route to the royal capital of Kalanli, but also marked the surrounding small towns and villages that you would pass by. The local names were written in beautiful small letters below these towns and villages. Customs, cuisine and specialties.
It can be seen that she really wants to walk a lot with Engus and eat a lot of delicious food until they grow old together.
But now all this has come to nothing.
And this map with detailed records became Engus's last gift for attacking the Kalanli Empire.
He transformed into a huge ghost dragon, flew into the sky with his broken wings, raised his head and let out a hoarse and evil roar.
In the reservoir of Triumph City, the small toe bone of the ghost dragon soared into the sky under the inexplicable attraction and flew towards the distance.
In a farmland in Xinghui City, a bone ring surrounded by the undead also flew up, bringing with it a gray-green aura of the undead...
…
These mediums left by Engus to convey the breath of the undead all returned to their places at this time.
At the same time, it will also attract all the undead from the five major cities.
Eventually a huge undead army was formed.
Most of these undead armies are plague ghosts and zombies.
Some of those who are bitten to death and torn to pieces by the undead on the undead attack route will be transformed into terrifying ghouls. The killed knights and warriors will become undead warriors, while a small number of mages who were bitten to death will become An undead lich that can summon skeleton soldiers...
The first year of the winter calendar.
It was less than a day after King Winter led his army to repel the elves and made an agreement with the Elf Queen to protect the Emerald Fortress.
The undead army suddenly attacked Kalanli City.
Some of the Winter Soldiers left behind by Sivi in Kalanli and the entire Kalanli Royal Capital garrison fell into a bitter fight under the attack of the Undead Scourge.
The undead attacked the capital of Kalanli at night.
Under this neither high nor short city wall, countless skeletal soldiers emerged from the ground.
This is the first wave of the undead army's offensive.
The endless skeletal soldiers come from the land in front of the capital of Kalanli, the dead who have been buried here for thousands of years.
Under the power of Engus, these skeletons stood up again and launched a suicide attack that was not afraid of death against the ridiculous city wall of Kalanli.
It was a pitch-black night with no stars or moon, but the dense, cold and faint undead fire under the city wall made the scalps of the defenders on the wall numb.
The bones rub together to make a "crunching" sound, which is more intensive than the chirping of frogs in a pond in summer.
On the city wall.
Clemont, who stayed at the garrison in Anlius, handed a letter to the griffin knight with a serious expression.
This letter is asking for help from King Winter.
As a champion knight.
Clemont had already vaguely sensed that the origins of these undead were not simple.
Don't look at the fact that these skeleton warriors are just the lowest level of undead units. Any adult can fight two of them, but the being who can resurrect so many skeleton warriors at once is definitely not a simple necromancer or archlich.
At the far end of the night sky, the clouds of death that were darker than the black night were already covering the entire horizon.
That is the main army of this group of undead.
The mastermind behind the scenes may also be hidden in the cloud of death.
A natural disaster of the undead on this scale is more terrifying than what we encountered in Dragon Fire City.
Letters for help were sent out in three batches.
Two gryphon knights, and a great knight riding a dragon-blooded horse.
To ensure nothing goes wrong.
Clemont also ordered the few star mages who stayed in Kalanli City to start building positioning arrays and communication arrays, but this would take some time.
He has never been a show-off person.
When he encountered such a thing, the first thing he thought of was to immediately seek help from King Winter.
The capital of Kalanli must be defended.
Once the undead occupy the main city, have the advantage of defending the city, and spread to the surrounding areas with Kalanli City as the center, then the entire northern continent will be plunged into war. Countless creatures will die in the tide of the undead, and the undead army will also Becoming more and more powerful.
