…
dark.
Endless darkness.
A darkness that makes the entire empire lose its color.
Ever since the Undead Sky erupted and swept across the Negras Empire, the clear skies that we were used to taking for granted have become the luxury of yesterday's dream.
The streams are exhausted, and all the trees are withered,
The birds are gone and all the beasts are dead!
Only the dark creatures, the tenacious humans, and the undead who are already adapted to the darkness still stick to their own land.
Alive and wandering.
The city defense system and the caravan system established by Emperor Gaudos with the help of his whole country allowed the people who had fallen into darkness to find the rhythm of life again, and the empire was able to resume normal operations again. Therefore, for the entire empire, the caravan system The system is the artery of the entire empire and the reverse scale of the dragon. If you touch it, you will die!
However, while the caravan system is important, it is not perfect. Their imperfections naturally do not refer to the quality of the caravans. Almost every caravan was made by Emperor Gaudos or a group of national-level alchemy masters. Every undead and undead horse pulling the caravan was first-class during his lifetime. The grooms and their partners spent a lot of money to buy their bodies from other countries, and then the lichs did not hesitate to use magic power to perform a complete death summons.
The imperfection of the caravan system comes from loopholes in the rules.
Each caravan has automatic alarms and defensive spells to drive away the hostility and attention of the wandering undead. If the caravan is deliberately attacked, the entire attack process will be clearly received by the caravan management center on the other side, and He was quickly hunted to the ends of the earth by the mercenary guild or the imperial army.
But what if the attack was unintentional? Or is it a "natural accident" similar to this incident?
After all, the undead grooms are just undead. The only thing they can do after losing most of their thinking ability is to send the situation they encountered to the caravan management center in the nearest city and sit quietly waiting for rescue.
Although for the undead groom or his partner, this kind of waiting can last forever, but for the passengers in the caravan, every minute of this waiting is painful!
After the first few hours of waiting, a sense of fear and uneasiness gradually lingered in everyone's hearts!
Although there is plenty of food and water in the caravan, people's mentality can no longer remain optimistic!
"Mom, I'm afraid!"
A little girl who had just become sensible was hiding in her mother's arms and crying. The excitement of the little girl's first ride in the caravan had long since disappeared. She had stayed in the oppressive space inside the caravan for too long. Unreasonable, she only knew how to vent her tears. The restlessness in her young mind.
"It's okay kid, it's okay, the Emperor will not abandon us, he will come to save us. He has always been our savior, just like he saved me before."
The mother lovingly stroked the little girl's silky hair and slowly coaxed her to sleep. Seeing her daughter sleeping with tears in her eyes, she couldn't help but recall her own story when she was at this age.
That was the story before Gaudos became emperor. In order to please the great lich in charge of the death plane, his master Kalibawein kidnapped countless children in the city and went to the death plane. She was one of them.
Fortunately, Emperor Gaudos defeated Kaliba, sealed the magic door connected to the plane of death, and brought the children back to their parents, eventually proclaiming himself king.
Therefore, this mother is very grateful to Gaudos in her heart. No matter what the sky of the empire becomes, as long as Gaudos is still there, this is her hometown, and this land is hope!
However, other people did not have the experience and awareness of this mother. They prayed, argued, or almost wanted to get out of the car to check the situation.
However, at the back of the caravan, another beautiful lady wearing a white dress and a big-brimmed hat also remained calm and elegant, looking at the book in her hand leisurely and contentedly, as if it contained the entire book. world.
What's interesting is that the author of the book called "Scroll of Natural Law" in her hand is actually the current supreme guardian of Alanon, the Elf King Alvin.
"Miss Sirna, waiting like this is not an option. Please allow your subordinates to go out and investigate!"
Finally, the other lady next to this beautiful lady couldn't sit still anymore. She stood up, with scarlet light shining in her pupils.
If George were here, he would definitely be surprised, because these scarlet pupils are the manifestation of the vampire's infrared vision. Moreover, although this vampire lady is very young, her strength is by no means ordinary. In the family, she is one of the rising stars who can surpass the strength of the direct heirs!
However, such a rookie vampire is willing to be the servant of this beautiful lady, Sirna!
"Isabella, I remember that the Intercity Caravan Center stipulates that if you get off the car midway, you must be responsible for anything that happens. The thieves outside dare not attack the caravan directly, so they are waiting for some people to take responsibility for it. 'Woolen cloth!"
"Are there thieves?"
Because she was separated from the caravan, the vampire girl Isabella, whose perception was not as good as Sirna's, was very surprised by the news. Then she calmed down, her face full of disdain.
"It's just a group of weak humans, they will be solved in minutes."
"According to my investigation, the other party has three to four thousand people!"
Hilna looked at Isabella teasingly, as if teasing her was a supreme pleasure.
"What? It's only... there are only three or four thousand thieves. I will definitely send you out safely, young lady. The speed of humans cannot catch up with our vampires!" Isabella, who knew she was outnumbered, was still stubborn. She was so excited. The crying but still stubborn expression made the smile on Sirna's face even brighter.
Suddenly, as if she sensed something, the smile on Sirna's face froze for an instant, and then stretched out again.
"I guess I don't need to take action, the reinforcements from the mercenary union have already arrived!"
