Chapter 527 The Bizarre Adventure with Erza ([-])
Commodus's army has already launched multi-level vigilance, but no matter how hard they try, it is impossible to prevent the high-level transcendent who is acting alone.

After absorbing some of Naira's Extraordinary characteristics, the bone ring Minos became even more powerful, and his transformation efficiency could even rival that of a real death knight.The animal carcasses under the humus soil of the dense forest provided organic matter, and Griffith spared no expense in consuming the Extraordinary characteristics it carried to create an army.

The transformation was astonishingly fast. Before Commode's troops realized what had happened, Griffith had already deployed an undead army composed of living corpses and self-explosive balls near their central army.

The two sides are close at hand, as long as a short charge can rush into Commodus' Janissary and cause brief chaos.

However, it is easy to get in, but the difficulty of rescuing Erza is multiplied.Commodus had already suppressed Erza, and once the Extraordinary around him reacted, the overwhelming advantage in combat power was enough to tear apart the two God Hands who were in poor condition.

"I need to gather more troops," Griffith ordered, "Minos, create stitch monsters and beasts."

Stitch monsters stitched together from dead bodies are excellent meat shields; Brutal Beasts made by absorbing the characteristics of the Sons of Domon are slow, large ranged units with solid carapace, corrosive saliva and bone spikes, which can attack the guards The Extraordinary poses a deadly threat.

Once the first wave of assault smashes through the front row of the Imperial Guard, the combination of Stitch Monster and Brutal Beast can establish a line of defense around Erza...

Unfortunately, Minos was unable to respond to his instructions.

"The reserves of psionic energy crystals are insufficient.

"More biomass is needed.

"Powerful and complex units require higher costs and take longer to grow, and Minos requires a larger territory."

There is no choice, Erza's breath is getting weaker and more chaotic... Griffith couldn't wait any longer, pulled down the visor of the commanding helmet, and pointed at Commodus's central army.

"Give me a horse!"

……

Commodus's nerves twitched.He is trying his best to suppress Erza's reason, dragging her into an eternal dream.However, the God's Hand of Thunder and Storm was not so easy to deal with. Erza's body was suddenly covered with a crimson light shield, resisting the distortion of will overwriting.

He needs time to solidify his victory.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up in the air.With the fluttering of military flags and the thunderous roar of the canopy, the soldiers could barely stand in the strong wind.The strong wind blows, heralding the coming of chaos and evil.

In a blink of an eye, the wind suddenly stopped, but the silence did not come.The Janissary soldiers lined up looked around in surprise.

They suddenly lost contact with the sentinel, and heard strange noises, as if they heard endless screams echoing, mixed with bursts of cracks and splashes of water, some kind of living things were born in groups from the amniotic fluid.

It was getting dark and the fog was spreading.

The soldiers saw several shambling figures approaching them.The non-commissioned officers leading the team asked suspiciously:

"What's the situation? Soldier."

The soldiers who came stopped, but did not answer.Until more and more soldiers returned from the perimeter, silent, standing still with their heads bowed.

A deadly uneasiness breeds in everyone's heart like a plague.

"Go back to your post!" The officers and non-commissioned officers of the Chinese Army shouted at the top of their voices, as if this was the only way to make them feel at ease, "Go back!"

"Xi Lili..."

They heard a whimper of nothingness.Those weird soldiers all raised their heads in an instant.Eyes or chins were missing from the pale face, half of the neck was bitten off, the eyes were turned white, and there were remnants of flesh and blood hanging from the open mouth.

"Battle ready!"

"Hollow phalanx!"

"Protect Your Majesty!"

The most experienced officers were taken aback, their orders drowned out by louder roars.Pieces of black and gray shadows rushed into the queue from all directions, throwing comrades in arms a few minutes ago to the ground.

"Attack! Kill them!"

"Combine!"

"Stay away!" Commodus exclaimed, "Stay away, you idiots!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang that made everyone's ears buzz.Shock waves and explosions exploded in the middle of the queue, and the dense infantry suddenly fell down.

Splashes of acid splashed on armor and weapons, making a chilling sound of corrosion and white smoke.The Chinese army suddenly became a mess, and the frightened horses threw off their riders and rammed around in the crowd.

Weird and dense roars sounded from all directions.Groups of twisted and swollen spherical corpses rolled, mixed in the turbulent crowd like an unstoppable brown tide rushing towards the legion's battle line.

The soldiers who were caught off guard were washed up in several places.Their flesh and blood fell to the ground, and a moment later, a muddy black mud spread.All undead creatures will become crazier as long as they are placed on the black mud.

Commodus's central army was caught off guard by the sudden attack. For a while, he didn't know whether to form an formation to eliminate the living corpses, or to disperse and avoid the acid from the self-exploding ball.Amidst the creepy screams, the bursting acid corroded the flesh and blood, and the infantry who lost their command became confused, and were pushed back by the bewildered cavalry.

Even Extraordinary beings above Sequence Seven lost their order.No matter how sober they are and how hard they try, once they lose the cover of friendly forces, they will face monsters coming from all around, and if they don't retreat, they will immediately fall into the tide of corpses.

"These inexperienced mobs," Commodus said, seeing his Janissaries being repelled by low-level undead creatures, his eyes turned red, "isn't this the old plan of Odessa, who can't even deal with it at least?" Can't do it..."

His psychic energy was surging.At this time, we can't expect to win Ersha, we must first stabilize the Chinese army.

As long as you throw down the authority of the dream, everything will be fine...

At this moment, Commodus heard the sound of heavy horseshoes.In the fog-shrouded field of vision, black knights and terrifying horse shadows appeared, approaching him directly.

A skeletal steed emerges from the mist, carrying the Death Knight into battle.Behind him, there are overwhelming self-explosive balls and living corpses.

Chase!Just crush the front of the Praetorian Guard!
Griffith mobilized all his troops and crushed them like mountains and seas.

"This breath is a certain death knight... Huh, it can only be Griffith."

Commodus restrained his mind and concentrated on fighting.

His adjutants, Steiner, Wink, and Busey's troops fell into unprecedented chaos.These regular troops were used to fighting on a tight front line, but they were suddenly attacked by undead creatures, the defense line was breached everywhere, and they were being beaten back again and again.

Alarms and distress calls were everywhere.

"Come on, Griffith de Ravenel, this king has studied your tactics in Verona. A mere undead creature is nothing to be afraid of in front of the invincible Byelan Legion!"

Commodus snorted softly.He saw through the weakness of the incoming undead army, that is, undead creatures only have low-level creations, otherwise it would be impossible to escape the surveillance of the Extraordinary in the Imperial Guard, and it would be impossible to gather in a short time.

The chaotic Imperial Guard suddenly fell silent.

Just like a champion meets a novice who is not afraid of death, after experiencing the initial confusion, the unshakable strength is undoubtedly revealed.

Human sword and shield soldiers, musketeers, and troll spearmen who surrendered to him moved like the tentacles of an octopus.

They did not form a dense formation, nor did they let go of the enemies in front of them, spreading like ripples.Commodus's will is immersed in the soldiers who meet the enemy——

"The sacred mission connects the hearts of each of us!"

Commodus shone like a star, and the clear echo was connected to the officers and sergeants of each squad.

The middle army of the imperial guards, with the small captain, deputy captain and sergeants as the core, formed a fighting group of ten people, and spread out in the direction of the tide of corpses, like impatiens.

"volley!"

In the dense whistling sound as if tearing the air, a piece of silver light swept away, piercing through the corpses, piercing through their chest cavity and skin pouch to come out.

Buzzing and crackling sounds one after another.The tide of corpses was swept away by this round of head-on blows, as if they had hit an invisible wall and were instantly suffocated.

The moment the projection was completed, the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard continued to move.Intangible ideas guided them, avoiding the attack of the corpse tide, and preparing for the second round of salvo.

The corpse tide is still chasing.Griffith can't let them stop, otherwise it will give the Guards time to regroup.However, even so, the wave of his corpses only reached a corner of his clothes, and then he was knocked down by successive shots.There are scattered soldiers and gleaming guns in all directions.

After a while, the tide of corpses chased out of the black mud, but Commodus's army withdrew faster.Just as the Chinese army pulled away, a group of topless troll warriors rushed out of the ranks of the imperial guards.

"Succumbing to the Godhead is a foolish thing.

"The greatness of human beings is the firmness in the face of fear and temptation."

Commodus glanced at Griffith, who commanded the undead creatures, and raised his right hand:

"It's time to end the feast of sharing the world. The gods abdicate. My king, I have picked up the original napkin!

"Keep your eyes open, the correct use of the authority of the hand of God!"

Clouds of unknown fog emanated from his body, flying towards the troll following him.

The small eyes of these savage warriors suddenly turned red.They lowered their heads, their chests rose and fell violently, and they took a deep breath, and their volume suddenly doubled.

In the next second, all the legionnaires who were blocking the path of the troll warrior gave way like waves.The troll warrior seemed to have flipped a switch, and the most threatening self-explosive ball imprinted in the blood-red pupils.

Commodus held his right hand empty, with his thumb raised up, as if he was about to press something:
"Their fate has already been touched by this king!"

The troll went from slow to fast, and his aura was unstoppable immediately, just like that, burning his life and sprinting forward indomitably!
