Chapter 117 Blow him up!
These damn bastards! !
Being among the undead army, Manfred's facial features were distorted with anger at this moment.
Originally, he was scolded by Nagash who was far away in the underworld because he did not find all the relics and even lost the Corrupted Blade. So much so that Manfred had to find other magical artifacts to replace the relics to complete the ritual. Unexpectedly, he and Heilixin had just left for a while, and their home was ransacked? !
At first, Manfred didn't take it seriously. After all, there was Gul, the former Champion of Chaos and the current Lord of Death, in the castle. Ordinary thieves were no match for him. As a result, Herichin told him , Gul was defeated?
Now Manfred was completely furious.
How many lifetimes of bad luck have you had?
I worked hard to kidnap people and find relics. Is it easy for me? You damn bastards just came here and ruined my hard work? !
Can this be tolerated?
But since you dare to come here, don't go back! !
Now it’s time to let you know whose territory Sylvania belongs to! !
I will let you realize what real pain and fear are... huh? What sound?
Just when Manfred was about to give the order, he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the sky.
"Whoosh..."
What's going on? What is this sound?
Manfred raised his head in confusion and looked towards the sky. Then he saw several strange small black dots falling from the sky. Then they exploded in the air, forming countless tiny light balls, which were like raindrops. Falling downward, and then…………
"Boom————!!!"
The next moment, the entire battlefield was instantly enveloped in a sea of fire.
As an anti-personnel air-to-ground missile, the Hell's Fury is one of the Empire's most powerful combat weapons. Each Hell's Fury missile is filled with hundreds of incendiary bombs. When they are fired and explode, they will explode in the air. A colorful beauty like fireworks bloomed in the sky.
However, every light point falling from the sky will bring devastating explosions and flames to the ground.
Unlike in Mordheim, what Duanmu Huai has to deal with this time is not the ratmen who can dig holes underground, so he does not need to use armor-piercing critical bombs. On the contrary, for these undead, compared to explosions, The impact caused by the fire is their biggest enemy.
As one of the most powerful air-to-ground missiles, the Hell's Fury missile has long been tested in battles against the Tyranids. Compared to the Tyranids, these undead armies on the ground are not worth mentioning at all. .
Not to mention that Manfred's marching formation is still a dense formation in the Middle Ages. It is simply a living target. If it doesn't blow up in all directions, it will be so dense that it will lead to death! !
"Everyone! Get down! Hold your head with your hands! Ann, cast a defensive magic!!"
At the same time, Duanmuhuai also shouted for others to get down, and also asked An to release protective magic. At this moment, other people were also frightened and lying on the ground according to Duanmu Huai's words. For them, they had no idea what was going on. Because of the barrier of the city wall, they could not see what was happening outside and could only hear the deafening sound. There were roars and explosions, as well as thick smoke and fire rising into the sky, almost covering the entire sky. The scorching heat is coming from all directions, even giving people the illusion of being in a furnace.
I don't know how long it took before the outside gradually became quiet. Everyone raised their heads in confusion and looked around. They felt that the air was filled with a hot burning breath, which even made people breathless.
What's going on?
What happened? ?
Everyone stood up and came to the wall to look outside. Then, their eyes widened in surprise.
Outside the castle, the originally menacing army of hundreds of undead had completely disappeared. The entire earth was scorched black, and thick smoke rose from the ground, covering the sky and the sun.
"This, what is this..."
Seeing this scene, even Kevin's eyes widened in surprise and he didn't know what to say for a moment, while Duanmu Huai next to him just rolled his eyes.
"Just think that Sigma has appeared."
"This..."
Before Kevin could say anything else, the bald old bishop suddenly knelt on the ground and faced the sky.
"Sigma is on top!! This is the power of Sigma!"
“……………………”
Seeing the old bishop's enthusiastic and excited expression, Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders.
Forget it, this isn't the first time Sigma has tried to trick him, so let's leave it at that. With the end of this wave of bombings, the rescue mission has come to an end. For Duanmu Huai, this time can be regarded as... a wave of fattening!
Not to mention that the bombed undead army outside was full of experience points, and even killed a necromancer. In addition, Duanmu Huai had killed a former Chaos Champion Warrior and Lord of Death before, so the experience points suddenly skyrocketed. Not only that, in order to resurrect Nagash, Manfred also found several holy relics, and these things were naturally cheap.
The Frost Bears also suffered heavy losses this time. They don't have Duanmuhuai's ability to challenge the Lord of Death alone, and they have reduced their number by nearly half. However, mercenaries are very used to separation and death. It is sad to be sad, and there is no shortage of money. I even asked for an extra pension.
Kevin didn't waste any words on this and just gave it to him.
By the way, Kevin's identity was indeed the emperor. Duanmuhuai knew it when the old bishop knelt in front of him and called His Majesty.
Well, maybe he already knew it.
According to the old bishop, this was indeed a conspiracy. In fact, as the archbishop of Sigma, he should have been in charge of Altdorf. But the eldest prince told him that Manfred planned to resurrect Nagash and asked the old bishop to personally lead his people to eradicate him. Although he was very dissatisfied with the eldest prince's behavior of taking advantage of others, the old bishop also knew that if Nagash was really resurrected, the empire's prospects would only become bleaker. So he personally took action and led the elite soldiers of the Temple of Sigmar to try to eradicate Manfred.
We have also seen the result. They were ambushed, the others were defeated and died, and the old bishop was captured by Manfred and used as the carrier of Nagash's resurrection.
As for whether this was a collusion between Manfred and the eldest prince, I don't know, because the vampire did not die on the battlefield - Duanmu Huai did not see Manfred's death in the system prompt. Information, it is estimated that the bald vampire ran away again when the situation was bad.
I have to say that this guy is not good at anything else, but his ability to run away is really top-notch. Counting this time, he has already run away from Duanmu Huai twice.
As the saying goes, again and again, twice, never three... I wonder if he can escape next time.
At this point, everyone's adventure has come to an end for the time being.
The mission of the Frost Bears Chapter has been completed, but they did not return to Middenheim immediately. Instead, they went to the port of Bretonnia to deliver the news of Alishara's rescue to Ossus and tell the high elves about their princess. It's okay, let them send someone to pick him up.
As for Duanmu Huai, he will stay here and carry out the next work with Kevin... In other words, this is the most important work.
That is to fight back to Altdorf and snatch his throne back from those three useless sons!
It’s just…………
"Your Highness, are you comfortable here?"
Looking at Alisala standing next to him, Duanmu Huai asked with a confused look on his face, but the latter just nodded slightly, lowered his head and said nothing.
Originally, according to Duanmu Huai's idea, he planned to let the Frost Bear escort the Elf Princess and leave together. However, the Elf Princess said that Manfred had not surrendered yet, and the Frost Bear was not considered capable of fighting, so she would probably follow them. If he was captured by Manfred again, it would be safer to stay with Duanmu Huai.
Although that is said......
"What do you think she is thinking?"
Duanmuhuai walked up to An and asked in a low voice, and the latter showed a playful smile.
"Oh, Mr. Knight, do you need to say this? Isn't that how it is written in the story? The knight saved the princess, and then the princess fell in love with the knight. Isn't this natural? I think that the elf princess must have fallen in love with you. ”
"Are you sure?"
Duanmuhuai pointed to his face and asked again, while An was stunned for a moment.
"Well, this...should...probably...maybe...possible? After all, not everyone looks at faces, and Mr. Knight, you are not ugly...just a bit scary... Maybe some people like this?”
"…………"
Just let it be.
Seeing An's eyes darting around in response, Duanmu Huai sighed helplessly.
At any rate, this can be considered a reason, right?
