Chapter 455 Next Step
"The undead from the Moonrise Tower attacked you, right?"
"Yes..."
"Why?"
"I don't know...sudden attack, out of control, all the undead..."
"Where is your master now?"
"...left and did not come back..."
"Basazar and other conscious high-level undead, where are they now? ? "
"Basazar...just left not long ago...where he is now...I don't know...other undead...attacked us...left...where he is now...don't know..."
"You mean, except for Balthazar, the other high-level undead attacked you instinctively? After killing all of you, they left here on their own initiative? Is that right? ”
"...Yes."
As the last question fell, the half of the body of the jackal in front of Nohir, whose soul was recalled by the conversation with the dead, also fell into silence.
At this time, Nohir had already run out of the Moonrise Tower and arrived at a remote woodland inside the Cursed Land of Shadows.
Those living zombie jackals couldn't do anything to him. Nohill easily escaped from it, and when he left, he also took away a piece of the vocal organ. A fairly well-preserved gnoll corpse.
This is the one in front of Nohir. Just now, he was asking him what happened to the Tower of the Moon during this period through the corpse and the dead man's communication spell scroll he carried.
Now Nohill has asked all five questions, and when all five questions are answered, Nohill's questions have also been answered to a certain extent.
“It sounds like an ordinary out-of-control incident, but what’s different from other out-of-control incidents is that the thing that went out of control this time was a huge undead army that gathered together.”
"The lack of unified command is probably the root cause of this undead army's rampage. When Catheric Som was captured by me, the other undead in this tower no longer had a strong enough leader. After Balthazar left, There are no deputies here who can replace the leader and restrain other undead generals at critical moments. This makes these undead armies who have some wisdom but still succumb to the instinct of hating the living go berserk. "
Nuo. Hill felt that his guess was quite accurate, because according to the information he had found out, in order to easily mobilize his undead soldiers, Catheric Som had not replaced many intelligent undead creatures. .
The main management of this army is Catheric Thom himself, as well as Balthazar and other members of the Death Order. But now that Cedric Thom is captured, Even the head is in a state of being burned at all times. This so-called God of Death has completely lost the function of issuing orders and commanding the undead. In addition to Catheric Thom himself, the Death Order under him has also been destroyed by Nohir alone in the cave below. Now the only person who can barely control these undead is Catherly. Ke's deputy, but now, this so-called deputy has also left here.
Nohir guessed that Balthasar should have taken some of his undead soldiers and his younger brothers, the flesh golem and Rourou, to the Som family world just like in the original plot. The great mausoleum of generations went to strengthen the magic circle deep in the mausoleum to restrain the Song of Dark Night.
"To put it this way, I seem to be a little too nervous, and I think too highly of these messengers of the three gods of death. What happened in this tower was not a brand-new conspiracy, but something natural and completely impossible at the same time. The defeat was prevented, but it’s right to think about it. After the original plan was completely defeated, no matter how smart these guys were, they couldn’t come up with a new conspiracy right away.” He breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that he had been under too much pressure during this period, which made him think too much involuntarily and made him a little nervous.
Nohir, who had relaxed a little, suddenly started to reminisce at this time. Thinking about it carefully, he had been busy with too many things during this period. Various crisis events continued one after another, which was overwhelming. He never had enough time to take a deep breath.
Coupled with the long-term confrontation with evil thoughts before, that confrontation with evil thoughts not only caused pressure on evil thoughts, but also for him, the sense of crisis that stabbed his heart, lungs and brain. Make his nerves tense.
If possible, Nohill really wanted to give himself a long vacation to calm down the heavy pressure on his spirit caused by the long-term adventure.
“But now is not the time to give yourself a holiday.”
Nohir shook his head, then jumped onto the predator next to him again, controlling it towards the Final Light Hotel Rushing over quickly, he said that he should explain everything that happened here to Jaheira and the others.
If this news is conveyed quickly enough and the Harpers gather quickly enough, they can seize this opportunity and take advantage of the current undead army to split into dozens of sizes due to the lack of a commander. Different groups, taking advantage of their weakest moment, mobilized armies to directly eliminate most of their effective forces, so that Melkor's forces would be completely defeated in a short time.
In this way, without the undead army as a foreign threat, Nohir can have his hands free to deal with the real threats hidden in the dark.
Evil thoughts, after the previous secret confrontation that was neither long nor short, Nohill had quietly raised the danger level of this guy by several levels in his own mind.
Only the blade that has always been in the dark is the most mysterious and deadly. Evil thoughts can give up further actions when the two sides have clearly encountered each other. No matter what the reason is, he has shown a true The qualities that a good assassin should have.
Nohir has already felt that pressure, although he has super instinctive perception and can detect the existence of evil thoughts in advance.
But as long as the knife in the darkness of the evil thoughts does not stab him, Nohir has no way of knowing his true strength, and when and where the knife will stab him. He can only always be in fear. Be careful and guard against any hidden corner in your life.
Even if it was just to be able to sleep peacefully, he had to dig out Xie Nian from the secrets in advance. Because of this, Nohir also finalized the next action plan.
He will first bring Catheric Som to the Final Light Hotel, and while handing this guy over to Jasila and the others, he will also look forward to seeing if Isobel can succeed in talking about it and put him under their care. Catherick got back on track.
