Chapter 51 II: The Junction of Life and Death
A few minutes later.
All the skeleton sentries were killed by the goblins deep in the cave, but Lu Yuan had already gotten the information he wanted.
This cave is intricate, easy to defend and difficult to attack, like an underground maze.
Ordinary people can easily lose their way if they rush in hastily.
And there are at least hundreds of thousands of goblins living in it, which can be called a small goblin kingdom.
If we attack by force, we will definitely suffer heavy losses.
But this did not trouble Lu Yuan.
I saw him holding a skull staff and whispering a spell.
[Level 6 Dark Magic·Plague Mist! 】
As if being summoned, the elements within a ten-mile radius converged towards him crazily.
The elements in the sky gathered together to form a super large six-pointed star magic array.
A stream of poisonous green mist emerged from the magic circle, and then spread along the vents to the depths of the entire cave.
Many weak goblins were eroded by the poison and turned into a puddle of thick water before they knew what happened.
After their corpses quickly rotted and melted, they turned into a large amount of miasma, which greatly enhanced the power of the poisonous mist!
"Kill them." After Lu Yuan experimented with dark magic, he ordered the skeleton army to step into the cave and kill all the surviving goblins.
He has no sympathy for these short, ugly green-skinned creatures.
Moreover, the Goblins are weak and numerous.
For natural disaster skeletons, it is undoubtedly the best upgrade material.
Half a year later.
Almost all of the millions of goblins living near the Kajar Mountains fell under Lu Yuan's butcher knife.
The entire burial ground has also become Lu Yuan's private garden.
Tens of millions of wild skeletons were all killed or conquered by Lu Yuan.
And the number of Scourge Legions under his command finally exceeded the million mark!
Among them are 400,000 level 3 skeleton warriors, 200,000 level 4 skeleton swordsmen, and 100,000 level 4 archers and skeleton mages!
besides.
The size of the Headless Knights has finally exceeded the 50,000 mark!
Furthermore, the large amount of gold and silver treasures collected by Lu Yuan were replaced by Lucia through various channels with equipment and weapons made by the dwarves.
When the Headless Knights put on these equipment, their combat power was at least doubled!
And after he inquired.
Finally, I learned the origin of the Headless Knights from Lucia.
Hundreds of kilometers away from the burial ground, there is a wasteland of bones.
This wasteland is thousands of miles wide and is located at the southernmost point of the magical world, near the cracks in the abyss, at the junction of life and death.
Five hundred years ago.
A powerful Abyss Demon King, after years of planning and the cooperation of the dark organization, finally broke through the world barrier with supreme power and forcibly opened a space rift!
Endless abyss demons rush out from the cracks in space.
They kill, loot, and commit all kinds of evil, spreading death and war to every corner of the world.
When Emperor Shengguang learned about this, he was extremely angry.
Immediately dispatch 300,000 Holy Light Knights and millions of troops to attack the Abyss Demon.
The Abyss Demon is certainly powerful.
But the Holy Light Knights are an important weapon of the country.
Every knight is a powerful being who has gone through many selections and is selected from a thousand.
Especially after being baptized by the Holy Light.
While they are galloping on the battlefield, they can also cast all kinds of powerful light magic!
Facing the devastating cavalry of the Holy Light Empire, the demon army retreated steadily, and was eventually driven back into the abyss.
But that space crack has not disappeared, and has always existed to this day.
From time to time, powerful abyss monsters accidentally break into this world.
For hundreds of years.
The Skeleton Wasteland is the main battlefield between the Holy Light Empire and the demon army. It is unknown how many dead bones and corpses are buried. Especially under the long-term erosion of the breath of death.
Now the Skeleton Wasteland has become the base camp of the undead, with billions of skeletons and undead creatures living there!
It was in the outer area of the Bone Wasteland that Lucia subdued a large number of wild Headless Horsemen, trained and organized them into the Headless Horsemen.
"Skeleton Wasteland?"
The bloody soul fire in Lu Yuan's eyes flickered, and he was very interested in this.
After the battle of the abyss.
In order to avoid a similar situation from happening again, the Holy Light Empire almost cleaned up the entire magical world.
The undead creatures scattered around the world lost their place to stay and had to gather in the Skeleton Wasteland.
Skeleton dragons, undead, magic spiders, warlocks, walking corpses, vampire bats, dark mages...
Almost all undead creatures gather in this wasteland.
If Lu Yuan can conquer this wasteland of bones, then the strength of the Scourge Legion will surely skyrocket!
However, the Holy Light Empire has stationed a tens of thousands of Holy Light Knights and more than 100,000 ordinary troops near the Wasteland of Bones all year round.
What's more, this space crack is the passage connecting the abyss plane to the magical world.
Those abyss lords will never tolerate the Skeleton Wasteland falling into the hands of others.
Lu Yuan’s idea of acquiring this territory must be done slowly and not too hastily.
Also.
Norton also had two pieces of bad news.
"Master, according to the information I have recently received, the Holy Light Empire has dispatched a large number of knights and scouts, as if they are searching for demon blood."
Norton paused and glanced at the side. of Lucia.
After this period of getting along.
Even he can see that Lucia's bloodline is very extraordinary, and she is definitely not just an abyss demon.
"Demon bloodline? How did the Holy Light Empire know this news?" A trace of doubt flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes.
What's more, the Kingdom of Lane is only a satellite of the Holy Light Empire, tens of thousands of kilometers away from the imperial capital, and many news are lagging behind.
This shows that the royal family of the Holy Light Empire learned about this matter a long time ago.
However, if the Holy Light Empire has been able to stand for thousands of years, it must have the foundation and means that ordinary people cannot imagine. It is normal for them to be able to predict the future.
“The Holy Light Empire is so aggressive, which means that Lucia’s bloodline may have a lot of background.”
Lu Yuan thought in his heart.
First of all, we can rule out the possibility that Lucia is an imitator.
Follow normal conditions.
After the novice protection period.
Every time you simulate, ten simulators will go to the same reincarnated world.
But Lucia has been enslaved by the [Scourge of the Undead] for so long.
Lu Yuan knew her very well. He even knew exactly what shorts he wore every day. There was absolutely no way he was an imitator.
Then what is the reason that makes the Holy Light Empire so shocked and attaches great importance to it.
Find Lucia even at all costs?
“Is Lucia the child of destiny?”
Lu Yuan shook his head and denied this guess.
Good and evil cannot coexist.
As a demon, Lucia is unlikely to be chosen by the will of the magical world.
And if she was really the child of destiny, there was absolutely no way she could be enslaved by Lu Yuan so easily.
Lu Yuan couldn't think of an answer, so he could only put this question aside for the time being.
"What's the second bad news?" He looked at Norton and asked immediately.
"Report to the master, the original dark organization's super dark forbidden curse has been successfully researched."
"The Dread Lord decided to descend a clone and personally preside over the forbidden curse ceremony!"
