"Immortal? I thought that this kind of existence was completely eradicated during the crusade against night demons thirty years ago, but I never thought that there were still remnants hiding here after disappearing for many years."
"During this period, the imperial troops stationed in various places have been mobilized to the front line. It can be seen that the undead people thought that the village had lost its shelter, so they chose to show up at this time. It is really daring." Garius praised the village chief for himself. After serving, he drank the small wine that he had treasured for many years, then slapped the table and stood up.
Looking at Neluvana who was suffering from a headache in front of him, Gallius said: "But it doesn't matter. When I was young, I participated in the night demon crusade with "Blue Waves", and I learned about the habits and combat of the undead. The method is all too familiar. If you ask me, that gang of immortals can be easily wiped out by me alone. "
"Blue Waves and Thousand Waves? Is it the previous generation of Water Nianliu Sword King - Elena?" Artoris pricked up her ears as if she heard the familiar name.
"If you think about it, you got the title of dragon-slaying hero by fighting with that guy. It's indeed her." Garius nodded with confidence.
"The title of dragon-slaying hero is just a public statement. In fact, the sky dragon was not killed by us." Barong, who was leaning against the door, intervened in the conversation.
"Hey, doesn't it mean the name is not worthy of the name?" Nervana was a little confused.
"That's not the case." After saying this, Barong tilted his head.
Seeing that there was no follow-up for a long time, Gallius was speechless for a while. Since this boy didn't intend to say anything, he didn't want to continue to answer Neluvana's doubts. After all, he had been easily defeated by that guy before. In his hands, at least his strength as a dragon-slaying hero can be recognized by Garius.
However, this guy must have deliberately caused trouble, just to prevent this chat from going smoothly.
"Okay, let's stop chatting." Garius put down the wine glass, turned around, picked up the weapon placed aside, and headed out.
"When I wipe out the undead, I must make sure that old man brings out all the good wine to reward my men. After all, they could have stayed in the capital, but they had no choice but to choose to fight on the front line with me. It's not the best wine. It cannot be exchanged for their lives.”
Hearing this, Barong's eyelids moved. Seeing that Garius was about to leave, Nelvana also stood up.
"I'll go too. Although my command skills as a legion commander are indeed poor, in terms of force, I don't think I will be much inferior to the Sword King." She patted her chest and assured Garius.
"Take me with you, too. I'm not someone's foil, I'm also a veritable dragon-slaying hero!" Artolis was also eager to give it a try.
Out of recognition of the two, Garius agreed to go with them, and a temporary team was formed to defeat the undead.
Under the watch of Baron and the village chief, Galius reached out and opened the door. Unexpectedly, a girl who was lying behind the door to eavesdrop lost her support. Unable to steady her body, she hit the door. He touched Garius's abdominal muscles and then sat down on the ground.
"Marian?" The village chief said the girl's name upon seeing this.
Marianne touched her butt and stood up. Looking at the gazes cast by everyone, she raised her head and met Gellius' gaze again. Her legs suddenly trembled. But she seemed to have thought of something and quickly gathered up the courage. She closed her eyes and handed a piece of jade she was holding in her hand to Gallius.
"Please...please help me...save my sister..."
…
"In other words, Marianne's sister was abducted by the undead the night before yesterday." Only the village chief and Baron were left in the village chief's house. Gallius and others had already left, while Baron was at home. He sat down at the wine table and brought up this topic after a conversation with the village chief.
"Alas, Lady Neruvana is right. The empire has been unconditionally protecting small places like us since she took office. It's all down to me, because I didn't want to put down this old face and didn't trust the empire. If not, I would have been there earlier. If we report this matter, so many innocent villagers will not die tragically at the hands of those undead creatures." The village chief seemed to be in tears when he said this.
"Marian and Maria were two children whose parents divorced when they were young. They have been dependent on each other to this day, but they can only hate the undead creature..."
"Two days later, as an 11-year-old child, Maria should have no chance of survival."
"I know, but you have to see people alive, and you have to see corpses when you die. As the commander of the Empire's First Legion, I will set an example. Before Maria's body is found, I will always regard her as a person in need of rescue." After refuting Gallius's words, Neluvana put on the battle armor tailor-made for her by the senior management, and took the double-edged battle ax handed over by the soldier with both hands.
Neruvana punched the ground with the end of her battle ax, moving left and right, looking at Artoris and Garius who were ready to go, Nerubana swung her battle ax.
"The time has come, the momentum has been achieved, let's go!"
Following the instructions of the villagers and the judgment of God's Eye, the three of them quickly found the entrance to the undead hideout.
"The cave is filled with a sinister miasma. Sure enough, this thing is related to the undead." Staring at the entrance of the cave and analyzing the data provided by the eye, Artoris's expression became serious.
"If the previous survey is correct, then the undead stronghold is most likely eight hundred meters deep underground."
"What are they doing to hide themselves so deep?" Neluvana asked, not knowing the habits of the undead.
"The undead were originally a race cursed by the god of light Tremsil. The curse made them immortal, afraid of the sun, and intolerant of dryness. They were forced to live in the dark and damp underground forever. But the underground environment changed their lives. Their living habits and immortal bodies also degrade their spirits, gradually returning to their original wildness. Underground resources are scarce and cannot meet the survival needs of the undead, so when night falls, they will crawl out of the ground to look for prey."
Gallius explained, his eyes gradually becoming fierce: "The night demon crusade thirty years ago was due to the brutal expansion of the undead forces, and the top forces in the continent gathered to exterminate the undead. I remember that back then, the Immortal King built an entire underground city under Fenir City, and it was in that battle that the previous generation of Kamimoku Sword King fell, which allowed me to succeed to the throne."
"I remember you said that Elena also participated in that conquest?"
"That's right, and "Blue Waves and Thousand Waves" was the biggest contributor to that battle. She alone killed tens of thousands of undead armies, and if she hadn't risked her life to drag the immortal king's consciousness into that lake of heart , the combination of "Thousand-locked Heart" and "Knower of the Thunder in the Palm" may not be able to completely annihilate the Immortal King. "
It actually took four kings to finally bury the undead leader. Artoris couldn't help but take a breath after learning this information. The strength of this immortal king is probably not comparable to that of the saints. Not much different.
"Not to mention those things that are missing, I will count to three and jump down together, and fight all the way to the opponent's lair!"
