Chapter 25 Strategic Shift
Under the holographic projection, a blue planet appeared in front of everyone. For them, this scene was so dreamy that it was simply unimaginable.
"Ah..."
Alyssa's mother covered her mouth with both hands and stared at the planet in front of her with wide eyes in surprise. Cardo and the elf scouts were also dumbfounded. On the contrary, Alyssa seemed relatively calm - after all, she had long known that Duanmu Huai had With a wizard-like ability, it's not surprising that he can do such a thing. Instead, he came over curiously and looked at the holographic projection in front of Duanmu Huai.
"Lord Knight, what is this?"
"This is the map of the world."
"Hey? Do we live on a ball? So where do we live??"
Hearing Alyssa's inquiry, Duanmu Huai quickly reached out and clicked on the holographic projection, then quickly zoomed in, and then the entire Silver City and the surrounding areas appeared in front of everyone.
"Wow, this is the City of Silver? Is this what it looked like?"
At this moment, other people also gathered around, staring curiously at the holographic projection in front of them. This scene was really incredible. They had never seen such a scene before.
"Ah, this is our castle! There are also guards patrolling the city wall! You can see it clearly even at night..."
Alyssa seemed to have encountered a new toy at this moment. She came over excitedly and looked around. Then she stretched out her hand in confusion and pointed to the edge of the map.
"Hey? What are those dense black shadows here?"
"Huh? Let me see..."
After hearing Alyssa's inquiry, Duanmu Huai discovered that there was a group of moving shadows in the lower left corner of the map outside the Silver City. He also reached out and clicked there. Then the screen zoomed in again, and then everyone saw a group of dark rat men and corrupt believers speeding up, heading towards the City of Silver...
"Enemy attack!"
At the same time, the warning bell outside also rang.
After these days, there are not many people left in the Silver City. Except for a group of veterans who followed the Caddo Knight Commander, the other residents had already left the Silver City and fled to other places. The servants in the castle were also dismissed. At present, the total number of manpower in the entire Silver City is less than a hundred, and the rat army on the opposite side is at least hundreds or thousands, so naturally it cannot be resisted no matter what.
Fortunately, everyone was ready to run away, and now they hurriedly saluted and got into the carriage.
"Lord Knight, what should you do?"
Alyssa looked at Duanmu Huai and asked uneasily. No wonder she was uneasy. After all, Duanmu Huai's armor probably weighed dozens of tons. It could crush a horse to death when riding a horse, and even more so when riding in a carriage. Don't think about it, the carriage will collapse if you put the front foot up and the rear foot.
"I'm in charge of the rear, making sure these guys don't follow and cause trouble."
Duanmuhuai also quickly answered, and then looked at Ojis.
"Ogis, stay with them and protect them."
"………………"
After hearing Duanmuhuai's order, Ojisi did not speak, but nodded slightly.
"I will take my wife and young lady to the Blackwood River. I have a secret stronghold there and should not be discovered."
The elf scout was already sitting on the carriage now, and then spoke to Duanmu Huai.
"I've marked the specific location on the map for you. It should be easy to find that strange thing."
"I understand, you guys should retreat first, and the Caddo Knights too."
"Okay, you too, be more careful." The two parties exchanged a few words briefly, and then the elf scout scolded him and drove away quickly in his carriage, escorted by Caddo knights and other soldiers, while Duanmuhuai glanced at their The figure from behind then withdrew his gaze and returned to the castle.
At this moment, it is late at night.
The originally bright moonlight was covered by dark clouds that didn't know when they would appear, and the whole city was dark. Standing on the balcony of the castle, he could see nothing except the light from the castle torch. Duanmu Huai just stood there, staring. He stared at the land in front of him that was also shrouded in darkness—until bright red vital signs appeared in his field of vision.
It's finally here.
Looking at the rat people and corrupt believers who were gradually approaching the City of Silver, Duanmu Huai's eyes were cold. He stood up and stretched out his hand. A card appeared on Duanmu Huai's fingertips, and then disappeared quietly.
Then, a strange mansion with a faint blue light appeared behind Duanmu Huai like an illusory image. Then, he flicked his right hand and pressed down weakly.
In an instant, nearly a hundred puppets appeared quietly, arranged neatly like soldiers. Then, they raised their weapons, like cheetahs in the dark, and rushed towards the enemy in front.
At this time, the army of rat men and corrupt believers had also broken through the city gate and returned to the city again.
The dead city obviously made these bed bugs who didn't take a bath all day have a hard time thinking. They were originally longing for another wonderful ceremony that could spread the "love" of the god of filth to all living beings. But the cemetery-like city in front of them was obviously not the happy dance scene they expected. Just when these invaders looked at each other and didn't know what to do, countless puppet armies fell from the sky and rushed directly into the ranks of corrupt believers and rat men.
The sudden appearance of the puppet army surprised the corrupt believers and ratmen, but at the same time they also found their enemies. Although the sharp blades wielded by the dolls are deadly, as mentioned before, physical attacks are unlikely to pose any threat to corrupt believers whose bodies are swollen, full of viruses and carrion, and dolls with only 1 point of defense are not even rats. Opponents of human beings and corrupt believers, these puppets were smashed into pieces almost as soon as they rushed in, and what they did seemed to have no other effect besides bringing a wave of waves to the filthy army.
However, this is just the beginning.
Just as the dolls were smashed into pieces, the dark mansion behind Duanmuhuai, shining with spiritual fire, began to commotion, and then its windows and doors suddenly opened as if haunted! The invisible cold wind howled out from it, passed through Duanmu Huai's body, and rushed forward.
Then, the Skaven and the Corrupted Believers discovered that the situation had changed.
Just as they smashed the dolls that appeared out of nowhere, the undead souls wearing white robes and exuding the chill of death suddenly emerged from them. They opened their mouths and let out a death wail that made all living beings tremble. , then, like hungry wolves rushing towards food, this group of innocent souls rushed towards the filthy army in front of them.
This is exactly the power of the card [Ghost Mansion] that Duanmu Huai obtained from the soul fragments before!
【Ghost Mansion (Bronze)】
【Consumption: 1】
[Whenever one of your followers (except the Wraith Spirit) is destroyed, summon a Wraith Spirit to the battlefield]
Viewed from the sky, the scattered army of resentful spirits is as beautiful as a white lotus blooming, but for the rat people and corrupt believers, this existence that represents pure death is simply their natural enemy. They began to flee crazily, because the diseases and poisons held by these followers of the filth god were meaningless to the vengeful spirits, and they could not even attack the bodies of these vengeful spirits. Every attack by the resentful spirits will weaken their soul fire.
Although the attack power of the wraiths themselves is not high, their advantage is that as spirits, ordinary physical attacks cannot harm them. Only elemental and magical damage will have an effect. Unfortunately, the followers of the God of Filth are equally lacking in this regard. Soon, each of the corrupt believers and ratmen fell to the ground under the "touch" of the undead. Their whole bodies were cold and stiff, their hearts stopped beating, and even the viruses on their bodies decayed under the wind of death. , die.
This is the reason why Duanmu Huai chose the undead deck. No life can withstand death, not even viruses, parasites and bacteria. All the fires of life will be extinguished in the wail of the injustice souls.
It's just a pity that the blood and tears of countless players have proven that this set will only have an effect on high-level demons at best. The big demons and the Chaos Evil God themselves are not affected by these undead spells and effects. Many species with high magic resistance don't like this set. It seems that the only way to deal with them is head-on confrontation. Of course, even so, the opponent will not die.
Of course, if there is any artifact in this world that can kill all things, it might actually be useful...but unfortunately, there are no similar prop cards in the game.
But for Duanmuhuai, this is enough.
Looking at the enemies that had been defeated in the army of resentful spirits, Duanmu Huai nodded with satisfaction, then turned and left - after all, it was meaningless for him to stay here any longer.
No one complained...
