Chapter 415 Realm of the Dead, You Actually Tricked Me With an Outdated Map!

In the Realm of the Dead Bones, the kingdom of the dead in Slanghorn, a huge skeleton at least [-] meters high carried a small cage, came to the high platform, knelt down to salute the skeleton on the throne, and offered the cage with both hands.

The skeleton wearing a crown pointed at the cage with bony fingers thicker than a human body, and a translucent figure overflowed from his fingers and squeezed into the cage.

"Living ones, the great King Slanhorn has a message for you."

That translucent figure should be a ghost, dressed in fancy clothes, with a greasy hair and a pink face.It was clearly a man, but his voice was shrill and thin, extremely feminine.

"Ask me! I, Noria, know everything!"

"Ask me! There is no one in the world who knows more than me, Pique!"

A gray-haired man and a big-nosed halfling were curled up in the cage. Their faces were dull at first, but when this figure appeared, they were ecstatic and shouted scramblingly.

The ghost said: "King Slanhorn asks you, who is now occupying the land of the Slanhorn Kingdom? Which god do they believe in? What kind of power do they have?"

Norie yelled: "It's the Duke of Pryor! Richie Pryor! He is the lover of Queen Theresia of the Dawn... Oh, vassal!"

Pique shouted: "He believes in Lady Scarlet, who is the revived God of Love! His strength is still very weak, and he doesn't even have a legend!"

"But there are several saints, very powerful saints!"

"There is also the Holy Maiden of Justice! She is very good at dealing with undead!"

"What's even more powerful is the magical technology! Our adventurer's assistant, and the camera, are invented by him!"

"It was invented by Master Rowena, the Duke is just very good at using magic technology!"

"What do you know? The Duke loves to watch my adventure show, and I was even received by him!"

"What is an interview? My brothers are serving the Duke! He is a very high-level counselor!"

The two of them quarreled with each other, trying to shake off their understanding of the Shenyun Plateau.

The ghost asked repeatedly, and did not leave the cage until it was sure that there was nothing more to ask.

Norie and Peek rushed to the cage, gripped the bars, and burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, I am the most experienced and knowledgeable Peak among the halflings! I swear in the name of Tesolos, I will be loyal to Your Majesty and find out everything you want to know on the main plane for you!"

"Your Majesty, let me be your internal response! I will definitely join the Duke of Pryor's team and do everything for you! Even if it is to help you take pictures of the indescribable relationship between the Duke and the saint, I can do it, I'm really good at this! I've sold tens of thousands of wafers for several series!"

"His Majesty--!"

Holding the cage, the skeleton gradually went away with the screams of the two people.

On the throne, the soul fire in the crown skull's eye sockets flickered, and the empty voice spread from the high platform to the entire space: "Li Qi Pryor..."

It tapped the armrest of the throne with its bony fingers, and a figure in a long robe and hood came to the high platform and made a sharp but charming voice: "Selintz is here, what is my king's intention?"

The Crown Skeleton hummed, but roared like rolling thunder. The slender figure bowed his head deeply: "Yes, my king, I will definitely wipe out the living criminals who occupy the homeland, leaving no one behind!"

When he looked up, a face that was still beautiful even though his complexion was black and black was revealed in the hood, and the flames of terror were churning in the bright green pupils.

………………

Valentine's Bay, the layered walls of Valentine's Cathedral with sharp edges and corners, wraps an area of ​​more than ten square kilometers.There is also a long horn extending to the east, deep into the bay, which is completely a stalwart fortress.

Square and square, the [-]-meter-tall Kaim Temple stands in the center of the fortress.A faint white light emanated from the surface of the blue-gray stone wall, just like the parapets throughout the fortress. The enchantment array embedded in the wall echoed the barrier in the center of the temple, making the whole fortress stand firm even under the bombardment of extraordinary power. move.

In fact, this place has already passed a test. The fortress was originally surrounded by bustling neighborhoods, which together constitute Valentine City, a bustling city in the mainland second only to Youxiang.But at this time, the city with an area of ​​tens of square kilometers, except for the Valentine Cathedral, was completely reduced to rubble, and the smoke and dust clouded the ground, which could not be dispersed for a long time.

Valentine City has a population of more than 50. When the Alliance of Order attacked, there should not be so many people here.However, no more than [-] citizens were lucky enough to be accommodated in the Valentine Cathedral, and no one can tell how many people were buried in the rubble.

Looking down from the sky, with the Valentine Cathedral as the center, all the surrounding areas have been flattened.More than 20 kilometers to the west of the cathedral, another fortress stands alone on the ground. With it as the center of the circle, a circle of scorched earth with no tiles left and no grass growing.

This is the original west gate of Valentine City, a fortress called "West Fort". Now, like the North Fort and South Fort, it has become the stronghold for the Alliance of Order to besiege the cathedral.

Unlike the other two forts, the Queen of Dawn's banner flies high here.

Apart from fortresses and fortresses, the ruins and wastelands on the land are the result of an exchange of divine punishment and forbidden spells between the attackers and defenders.

Valentine's Cathedral tried to destroy the fortress where the queen was staying with the curse of God's Punishment. Kem's will obviously did not approve of such behavior. The power of the curse was limited, and the fortress relied on a temporary defensive barrier to withstand the attack.

The Queen of Dawn fought back with a larger curse, trying to break the defenses of Valentine's Cathedral.However, the defense system built over thousands of years effectively redirected the attack to the urban area outside the barrier, allowing it to swallow the entire city.

The defenders did not dare to use the forbidden curse to touch Kaim's will, and the Alliance of Order was not stupid enough to continue to use the forbidden curse to ravage the rubble. The two sides entered the stage of bloody battle.

At the front of the circular position built around the three fortresses, hundreds of magic cannons were constantly bombarding, causing ripples on the defensive barrier, which only consumed the divine crystals and magic spar of the defenders.

The army united the world to cover the troops, broke into the defensive barrier in a dense formation, and fought face-to-face with the opponent's attacking troops. This was just to consume the opponent's personnel, hoping that when the opponent was unable to attack, the encirclement could be pushed under the opponent's barrier.

Of course, the cost of consuming the defenders' personnel and supplies is more consumption by one's own side.

In the meeting room of West Fort, the Queen and her allies, officials and generals looked at the images projected by the round table with different expressions.

The image is not the battlefield outside the fortress, but the remote and dangerous land in the southwest thousands of kilometers away.

General Roydas crossed his arms and said disapprovingly: "Duke Pryor worked so hard to make such a big battle, it would be better than a curse of divine punishment."

"It's not that simple." Grand Duke Tangus, the legendary paladin Tangus 57th shook his head and said, "After destroying that gap in the plane, what should the giant king do if he creates a gap in another place? It's better to stop it like this, and wait." After solving the trouble in the realm of the dead, that gap will naturally disappear."

The old paladin looked at the video and said with emotion: "It's really rare that they rely on this little people and this little strength to force the giant king to protect the gap between the planes."

Grand Duke Baruso of Redstone with orc blood said: "It's just their luck, the gap between the planes is not big enough to enter the legend."

Then he stared at the silver-armored warrior in the image who was holding a strange magic weapon, spewing out a violent stream of light, knocking down undead from the sky, and his tone changed slightly: "Of course, these weapons are really good."

Brinto said solemnly: "Duke Pryor got it from the Storm Islands, right? I heard that his agent got a lot of waste materials from the Storm Islands."

General Roydas snorted, "We don't have these weapons in the army formed by the Storm Islands."

Everyone looked at the black-haired beauty next to the queen, with different eyes, some inquiring, some questioning, some dissatisfied, and some ambiguous.

Hathaway frowned slightly, and said helplessly: "This should be the improvement made by the Duke of Pryor... the improvement made by those immigrants from the Shadow City. He can invent the magic gun, and he is an excellent magic craftsman himself. , it is not surprising that these improvements can be made.”

Noticing that these words did not dispel everyone's suspicions, she continued: "This kind of weapon has nothing to do with the overall situation. They have already exhausted their strength to deal with a gap in the plane."

"Indeed, such weapons only make the legion stronger, and even the magic metal fortress they built is just an imitation of the defense of the Valentine Cathedral."

Teresia's voice sounded, she moved her gaze away from the silver-armored warrior, waved her hand, and the image turned to a bird's-eye view of the entire fortress.The large pieces of metallic luster spliced ​​by copper plates spread out magnificent scenery on the ground.

She changed the subject: "But the power of low-level superhumans has soared, which is enough to trigger changes in the war. Everyone has also seen that in the battle between us and Valentine, the forbidden curse not only failed to determine the outcome, but also brought a great disaster."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Hathaway. Hathaway sighed slightly, nodded and said, "I will urge the Supreme Council to fully push magicians to improve magical weapons, popularize magical metals, and improve the combat effectiveness of the legion as soon as possible."

"Let Duke Pryor directly build these weapons for us." Grand Duke Baruso pointed to the magic machine gun that was emitting light stream and said, "Especially that kind of thing, if there are two hundred in my army... no, If there are a hundred copies, you will be able to stand firmly under the barrier yesterday!"

The generals agreed one after another, Brintol opened his mouth, but closed it again.

Teresia looked at Brintole, then at Meddy next to her, and finally exchanged glances with Hathaway, bit her lips, and said in a decisive tone: "This is not the Duke of Pryor's business alone. , we must mobilize all forces to win the war. I decided to establish a Department of Magical Affairs in the Alliance of Order, with... Hathaway as the minister, and Meddy as the deputy minister, to coordinate and promote the research and manufacture of magical weapons, and everything Magical affairs that are beneficial to enhance the combat effectiveness of the legion."

Everyone was awe-inspiring, some of them were pale, but Brinto and the others stretched their eyebrows.

Teresia went on to say: "This is only temporary. After the war is won, this department will be disbanded, and the relevant control rights will be returned to various countries."

After the meeting, Teresia, Meddy and Hathaway stayed.

Teresia said: "Hathaway, I approve of the magic patent bill you proposed. However, to apply for a patent within the Alliance of Order, you must obtain permission from the Ministry of Magical Affairs at the same time, and you must pay the corresponding fees."

Hathaway smiled slightly: "Of course, the mechanism of the Joint Communications Committee has set a good example."

"Speaking of this, thank you very much for your hard work on the United Communications Network during this time, oh, and of course Mentor Medi. Now I can understand all kinds of details in various places in real time. Relying on this network, our rear can also more solid."

"Your Majesty's compliment is really unworthy. The number of communication towers and magic towers is not enough. Information forwarding and management also require a lot of manpower. The communication volume is also very limited, and it has not yet played its due role."

"Let's improve slowly, I'll leave the matter of the Department of Magical Affairs to you and Mentor Meddy..."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely promote the development of magic technology as soon as possible, especially the various weapons developed by the Duke of Prell. I believe it will not be long before they will be widely equipped in the legion."

"Well, I am also very concerned about this, but I can't fall behind Li Qi."

After chatting for a while, Hathaway said goodbye.

After leaving the conference room, Hathaway exhaled, rubbed the ring, and called her uncle.

"Close the portal of Shadow City immediately, why? Li Qi has proved that he has the ability to digest our immigrants, so of course we can't give him away!"

"Also, is that little silver dragon still picking up trash? Find a way to drive her away! Mosmut is supporting her? Negotiate with Mosmut to win him over temporarily. Wait... the dragons are all seeing Jin Puer opened his eyes, talked directly to Xiao Yinlong, and gave her other benefits, in short, we can't let Li Qi continue to obtain magic technology from the Storm Islands through her."

"Also, Li Qi has proved that the magic metal smelting technology he said is true, we can't fall behind, let the Supreme Council take action in this area! Including our family, we must do our best to do research in this area, Li Qi must not be allowed to monopolize the mainland's supply of magical metals."

"It is already difficult for us to control magic technology. Enchanting technology must be strictly controlled. You should agree on the rules with those families that have the inheritance of enchanters. We can't let Li Qi find loopholes in this again."

After explaining, Hathaway looked up to the southwest, and muttered: "Li Qi, you are not on the main plane, and we magicians are all on their backs. I hope more and more that you will stay on the shore forever."

She raised her eyebrows and curved her mouth into an incomprehensible smile. At this moment, the legendary female magician was extremely glamorous: "Of course, if I can snatch you from the red lady and make you kneel on my knees... Under the skirt, I am still willing to reconnect with you."

In the meeting room, after Meddy finished reporting to Theresia, the Queen frowned, "Has Li Qi arrived at the God of Death's throne yet?"

Meddy shook her head: "The situation in the Underworld is extremely chaotic now. If the Duke of Prell reaches the God of Death's seat, the movements of all parties should change, but there is still no obvious change."

"Valentin here, I don't know how long it will take to break into the enchantment." Teresia sighed: "I sincerely hope that the matter on his side can be settled as soon as possible, and then come to help me."

Her voice became low: "He... don't know what's going on now, I hope he's all right. "

………………

In the realm of the dead, the strange mist condenses into a rushing river, which stretches endlessly into the distance. This is the River Styx.

The distorted and changing dim light clusters floated up and down in the Styx River, passed by the corners of Li Qi's eyes, and floated forward in an endless stream.

Li Qi was walking on the shore, not daring to get too close, but also not daring to stay away, always looking at the sides vigilantly, like a child crossing the road.

The river bank was the only indicator he could tell the direction of. Other directions were filled with thick gray fog, which seemed to be an extension of the dark sky above his head, with almost zero visibility.

Vaguely seeing a large green light flickering in the distance, and there was a burst of force, Li Qi suddenly changed his face: "Why is it a battlefield again!? Didn't you say that this section of the country next to the zombie monarch should be very quiet? ?”

The pendant on his neck flashed a faint green light, and the Lord of Death said in his ear: "That's right, the Zombie Lord has not participated in the incidents in the Realm of the Dead until now. He is a neutral person, and there should be no conflicts here."

The artifact around Li Qi's neck, the Pilgrimage to the Underworld, can not only protect his soul, but also have a direct dialogue with the Lord of Death.Without the guidance of the Lord of Death, he would not be able to go deep into the realm of the dead and reach the seat of the God of Death.

But the Lord of the Dead's guidance is obviously unreliable, Li Qi said angrily: "The movement ahead is obviously two armies of undead fighting! This is the third time!"

The more he talked, the more angry he became: "How many days is it now? I can't believe it, I've been walking in the realm of the dead for almost a month! Not to mention the seat of God, I didn't even see the toilet!"

The Lord of Death sighed: "You have the protection of the Pilgrimage to the Underworld, and you don't need to eat or go to the toilet..."

Li Qi was a little out of control: "I don't need it physically, but I need it psychologically! I feel very heavy now! A living person who hasn't gone to the toilet for more than half a month will go crazy!"

"I know you are worried about the situation above, but in the realm of the dead, you can only move forward in this way," said the Lord of Death, "And your body is because of..."

"Don't look for a reason!"

Now Li Qi has no respect for the Lord of the Dead: "Are you sure that your guidance is okay? Your territory is in the large cemetery, and you have never been here before."

"I haven't been here, but I have a map." The Lord of Death paused, as if confirming the map.

"map?"

Li Qi muttered: "I have a very bad feeling, don't tell me..."

Just listen to the Lord of Death say: "If you put it this way, I think there may indeed be a problem with the map. After all, it was given to me in the last era when the god of death, Hierro, was still around."

Li Qi stopped, as if he was about to jump, or shouted hysterically.

After all, he just sighed dejectedly: "Well, even you know to use the expired map to trick me."

"When you get to the next fork in the Styx, fix your map carefully!"

He shook his head helplessly, and continued to walk forward. Now he feels that every step is heavy, and he doesn't know why, maybe it is the suppression of the realm of the dead.

Li Qi continued to trek along the banks of the Styx River. Behind him, strands of light invisible to the naked eye stretched out, piercing through the gray fog, and connecting with a group of undead in the fog with light green soul fires shining in their eye sockets.

　That's all for today... sorry...
